She didn't flee to the Nexus immediately. At first, she was just in shock. The cylons were back, except this time, they were running the government. A "coalition" government, but everyone knew what that really meant.

It didn't make sense to her. They hated humans. Why not just destroy them and be done with it?

Her boyfriend assumed it was some sort of elaborate revenge plot, or a way to salvage the aspects of humanity the cylons considered worth keeping. He wanted her to agree with him, to be red-hot about it, too, but Adia was too distracted. She kept seeing Caspar's face -- the one she thought she knew -- and comparing it with the ones she kept seeing, wherever she went.

She could tell it was bothering him, that her attention was elsewhere.

Later, in the middle of the night when she knew she wouldn't be missed by any humans, and prayed she wouldn't be missed by any cylons, she PINpointed to the Nexus.

She sat at a Nexus terminal and typed out a message for anyone to read.

The cylons are on New Caprica.

Only then did she cry.

After speaking with Lichtenstein in the Nexus, Adia visits the library on her ship, currently grounded on New Caprica but still used for its lab facilities. The books are saved for posterity, but almost never used since everything is available electronically.

She finds a copy of Aging at the Molecular Level, but then it's time to work, and that evening she has plans with a man who she is just starting to think of as her boyfriend. He doesn't know about the Nexus -- nobody does.

The next day she is finally able to slip away again, and she returns to the Nexus, book in hand, looking for Lichtenstein.
