Cylon Centurions march through New Caprica City.

The takeover and occupation of New Caprica by a massive Cylon fleet and the retreat of the battlestars Galactica and Pegasus, as well as the remainder of the orbiting Fleet.

On the 380th day after colonization, a massive Cylon fleet, attracted by the nuclear detonation months before, suddenly appears within the nebula. Commander Lee Adama urges Admiral Adama to order the Fleet to jump, knowing that they cannot win in a firefight. Reluctantly, the Fleet retreats to an unknown location. As waves of Raiders and Heavy Raiders fly over New Caprica City, Caprica-Six, Sharon Valerii, and a Number Five copy enter President Baltar's office and indicates their intent to occupy the planet, and the colony. Faced with no choice, Baltar formally surrenders to the Cylons as waves of Centurions enter New Caprica City as a stunned population looks on.
