In "Six Degrees of Separation," the seventh episode of Battlestar Galactica season 1, the crew of the Galactica encounters a mysterious woman named "Number Six" who claims to have information about a Cylon attack on a nearby planet. Despite suspicion from both Commander Adama and President Roslin, Number Six manages to gain the trust of Dr. Baltar, who becomes increasingly infatuated with her.

Meanwhile, tensions rise on the Galactica, as crew members begin to suspect that someone onboard the ship is a Cylon agent. As relationships strain and loyalties are tested, the crew must navigate their way through this dangerous new situation.
