Actually that is a good point... IF one of more of the tin cans is siding with the oppressed humans against the organic cylons (re: the unseen ending of the premiere, foreshadowed by the 'self aware' dialog AND the tin can turning to look at the conflicted-suffering human cop outside the cylon building) THEN something interesting might be developing.
God, no. That would awful, contrived rubbish.

Anyway, the modern cylon centurions, unlike the first cylons which were made by the colonials, are not sentient. Thus, they cannot rebel. That was the point of Adamas line. This'd be like the US military drones rebelling.

The "look" the cylon gave Duck outside the police building was waving him in. He wasn't "conflicted", he was about to blow himself up in a room full of 200 people. If we're thinking of the same incident, that is.

The story is so scattered and the characters so bad the way the act is completely not how anyone would act in the situations they are in.
I think that's exactly how people would act in that situation. Coped up in ships not designed for long term habitation... constantly on the run... constant danger of death, no hope of any respite... it's bound to bring out the worst in people.

Jesus alot of the characters are supposed to be highly trained military personal but they act like 5 year old in their interaction with each other.
Who said anything about highly trained? The Galatica was an old ship, about to be decommissioned and it's pretty clear from the mini-series and from the earlier parts of season one that these are definately not "highly trained" military people, and that discipline had gone to pot etc etc.
