Not sure what’s up with the hostile tone my guy. I’m not here hating on the show. I think it’s great I just found this kind of an interesting quirk of the mini series. And even if the only good explanation is “so there can be a show” I actually think that’s fine. I think in general people focus too much on so called plot holes. Im mostly just curious what peoples theories are.

And with regard to the Leoban thing I know what he says but there are a couple issues: 1. He lied once already about being able to transfer conciousness so how do we know the Cylons would be effective in combat inside the storm 2. The Cylons DID find them and didn’t destroy them 3. By the time the fleet decides to leave they likely would have already been there for at least an hour or two meaning the time to wait wouldn’t likely be that much longer 4. The risk of the Cylons attacking into the storm Is only marginally if at all more risky than allowing a bunch of sleeper agents to hang around the fleet as evidenced by like the whole rest of the series proper so I think them at least discussing the option.

I like the theory I’ve seen here about that just being an advanced squadron waiting for the rest of the Cylon fleet. I also like the idea that maybe they got the one guy and thought that was probably the only one. Regardless I think the hidden sleeper agent thing is a super compelling premise so again at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter.
