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 sentient dialog was from the organic cylons stating that they made the tin cans unable to distinguish the organic cylons apart... to discourage sentience or something. That would leave the door open for the tin cans being able to distinguish the humans apart, which could in turn result in the problem the organic cylons were trying to avoid.

I'd have to rewatch the 'look' but the cylon's action seemed peculiar to me when it happened... looked more like one of the darth vader looks before he killed the emperor, than a 'you just got caught you guilty human' look.
