In the Battlestar Galactica remake series, Gaius Baltar is a brilliant scientist who is a key player in the Twelve Colonies’ defense research. At the onset of the miniseries, Baltar is involved in an intense sexual relationship with a beautiful blonde woman. Believing the woman to be an employee of a rival computer corporation, Baltar slips to his lover certain computer secrets from his defense work. The woman (known as “Number Six”) reveals to Baltar that she is in fact an advanced version of Cylon, and that the Cylons will use the computer secrets that Baltar has given her to infiltrate the Colonial defense systems, disable the Colonial military and attack the Twelve Worlds. That day the Cylons launched their attack and destroyed most of humanity.
