- -Teridax to Vakama, Time Trap. "The Plan" was a term used by members of the Brotherhood of Makuta when referring to Teridax's ultimate goal of overthrowing the Great Spirit. Not all Makuta were very enthusiastic about the Plan or its chances of success, but they went along with it because they knew Teridax would kill them if they didn't. Some, like Krika or Icarax, doubted the Plan would work, others, such as Gorast, were completely devoted to the Plan and while others remained neutral in the Plan's success like Bitil and Mutran.
- The opening scenes of The Plan occur just prior to the destruction of the Twelve Colonies in the televised miniseries, Battlestar Galactica. Humanoid Cylon John Cavil (played by Dean Stockwell) is shown leading the planning for the genocidal attack on the human race. All of the six "known" humanoid Cylons (Cavil, Leoben Conoy, D'Anna Biers, Simon, Aaron Doral, Six, and Sharon Valerii) are present in the control room of the main Cylon base. Two versions of Cavil are shown in a Resurrection Ship, with the "Final Five" Cylons in stasis in resurrection chambers. The two versions of Cavil briefly discuss their plans for "teaching a lesson" to the Final Five (who were their creators), and one version of Cavil announces his intention to witness the destruction of humanity on the ground. This version of Cavil travels to the planet Picon, where he encounters Ellen Tigh (one of the Final Five, played by Kate Vernon) in a strip club. Other characters from the series are also depicted: Gaius Baltar (James Callis) has a final meeting with Caprica Six; Samuel Anders (Michael Trucco) is shown at his Pyramid team's training camp along with the team doctor, who is Number Four/Simon (Rick Worthy); and Tory Foster (Rekha Sharma) is shown driving to an airport in an SUV-type vehicle. The destruction of the Twelve Colonies is depicted in a series of new special effects shots, with the Cylon Hybrid seemingly narrating the destruction in a typically convoluted but poetic way. Almost all of the planets of the Twelve Colonies are depicted in short scenes. Ellen Tigh is severely wounded in the nuclear attack on Picon, and Cavil helps her leave the planet aboard a Colonial Fleet rescue ship as he feels she still hasn't learned her lesson yet and thus cannot download and regain her memories. Aboard a civilian transport, Cavil torments the half-conscious woman with descriptions of his intent to destroy humanity.[4] Tory Foster survives the nuclear attack as well, and is wounded when her car flips over in the blast, but seems to protect her enough to survive. Anders helps console his teammates in the mountainous region where they were training. Several scenes from the television miniseries are edited into The Plan, notably shots of: Colonial One in space; Lee Adama (Jamie Bamber) helping survivors board Colonial One; Commander William Adama (Edward James Olmos) and Colonel Saul Tigh (Michael Hogan) responding to the attack on the Twelve Colonies. Another Number Four/Simon is shown to hold a job as Colonial Fleet medic, and has a wife named Giana and a stepdaughter named Jemmy. In a scene from the end of the miniseries, Commander Adama enters his quarters to find a note informing him that there are only twelve Cylon models. A cut to Baltar implies that he left the note. Cavil later boards the Galactica itself, where he is mistaken for a priest. Calling himself "Brother Cavil," he takes over the Galactica's chapel. The creation of Galactica's "wall of remembrance" where survivors posted pictures and mementos of their dead or missing loved ones is depicted. Using religious fliers which talk about a "plan", Cavil covertly gathers the other cylons: two Sixes, one who is Shelly Godfrey (Tricia Helfer), a Number Five (Matthew Bennett) and a Number Two (Callum Keith Rennie). Cavil tells them that he intends to continue his plan to utterly destroy the human race. He also tells them that there is a sleeper agent aboard the Galactica, a Number Eight (Grace Park), whom he also plans to use. Back on Cylon-occupied Caprica, Sam Anders and his teammates have fled their training center for more safe quarters. They spot Cylon Centurions collecting the parts of their fallen comrades. Later, Sam and his companions, having taken up refuge in an old military compound in the mountains, launch their first attack on the Cylons, losing several people in the successful attack.[5] Sam and Jean Barolay later observe several Number Fives burying numerous dead human bodies, realize that Cylons have taken humanoid form, and resolve to attack them. They do so later, while a Cavil version supervises the Fives' work. Cavil plays dead and survives the attack unharmed. Mistakenly believing Cavil to be a human being, Sam and his friends take the "priest" with them back to their camp while Cavil is clearly shocked to see Anders. Back on the Galactica, the events of the first season episodes are depicted, in part.[6][7][8][9] Using an elephant figurine, Brother Cavil triggers the original Cylon programming of the Number Eight known as Sharon "Boomer" Valerii. Cavil meets with Boomer to discuss ways in which she might cripple the Galactica, and Boomer comes up with a plan to bomb the ship's water storage facilities. As she tries to implement her plan, Boomer becomes increasingly distraught because she has fallen in love with Chief Galen Tyrol (Aaron Douglas). Some of the previously unknown backstory of "Water" is depicted. Cavil becomes angry when the Number Five known as Aaron Doral is exposed as a Cylon. He demands that the Number Five he has been meeting with attempt to kill Commander Adama. He does so (as depicted in the events in the episode "Litmus"). The Number Two, meanwhile, works to listen in on Colonial Fleet communications, and becomes convinced that Kara "Starbuck" Thrace (Katee Sackhoff) holds some special purpose for the humanoid Cylons. He begins to paint the nebula depicted in Season Three episodes.[10] Cavil, realizing that the Number Two known as Leoben Conoy has had his identity compromised (as depicted in the events of the miniseries during the Galactica's re-arming trip to Ragnar Anchorage), demands that the Number Two turn himself over to the humans and attempt to deceive or kill them. He does so (as depicted in scenes from the episode "Flesh and Bone"). When Boomer's plan to deprive the Fleet of water fails (and Boomer actually helps the Galactica locate more water), Cavil demands that Boomer kill Commander Adama. She first attempts suicide, and later purposefully botches the assassination attempt.[11] Cavil, worried about Dr. Baltar's attempt to develop a Cylon detection machine, orders the Number Six known as Shelly Godfrey to frame Baltar for treason. She does so, but her attempt fails when she purposefully turns an amateurishly manipulated series of security tapes over to Commander Adama.[12] Her identity compromised, Cavil orders the Six into an airlock and kills her (telling her to report back to the Cylons the Fleet's location). Cally Henderson's assassination of Boomer is depicted as well. In desperation, Cavil orders the Number Four known as Simon to destroy the ship on which he lives with his family. Distraught at the idea of killing the people he loves, Simon attempts to turn his wife against him. Overcome by guilt, he reunites with her and then commits suicide by rigging an airlock to jettison himself into space, while outside of Resurrection range. In the aftermath of Simon's suicide, there is concern that he might have been a Cylon. But his wife, Giana, reveals that he left a suicide note. Nonetheless, when Simon is revealed by Kara Thrace to be a Cylon [13] Giana seeks solace from Chief Tyrol—who is beginning to suspect that he himself might be a Cylon.[14] Meanwhile, back on Cylon-occupied Caprica, the other version of Cavil has ingratiated himself with Sam Anders. Cavil has ordered the Number Four to attempt to kill members of Sam's team, but none have died and Cavil criticizes the Four's actions. Cavil himself tries to undermine Sam's fragile psychological well-being, but Sam rejects Cavil's counsel. Starbuck returns to Caprica and meets the stranded Colonial pilot Karl "Helo" Agathon. [15] The two run into Anders' team, Cavil makes a failed attempt to trick Sam into thinking they are Cylons and attacking them. Helo and Starbuck join them and attack a local Cylon base. Starbuck is wounded, taken captive by the Cylons, and subjected to various breeding experiments. Anders, Helo, and the others rescue her, discovering that Simon is a Cylon in the process.[16] Later, after Starbuck and Helo have been away from Caprica for months and return to rescue Anders' group with Galactica troops, Cavil tries to assassinate Starbuck and Anders but finds that he cannot pull the trigger of his rifle, still thinking about Anders comment that death wouldn't make him love people any less. When the Cylon Centurions attack, Cavil is forced to hide with the rest of the humans. The Centurions break off their attack. That night, Cavil sneaks from the human camp to meet with a Number Six who informs him that the Cylons have agreed to end their attacks on the human race. Cavil, who has changed his mind about humanity, agrees to pass on the message to the humans despite the Cavils voting against peace. Cavil returns to the human camp, and the humans leave the next day for the Galactica. Meanwhile, Brother Cavil is bedeviled by the repeated appearance of a young boy named John (Alex Ferris) in his chapel. Initially, Cavil just kicks him out. But over time, Cavil appears to warm to the boy. He begins talking to him, learning the boy's name and that the boy's parents no longer want him. Cavil soon begins to feed the boy, and allows him to sleep in the chapel. One day, the boy brings Cavil the gift of an apple, and Cavil asks him if they are friends. The boy just shrugs in response. Cavil says relying on friends is dangerous and stabs him with a knife, murdering him. The Plan ends with "Caprica Cavil" arriving aboard the Galactica, and unwittingly exposing himself and Brother Cavil as humanoid Cylons (as depicted in scenes from the second season episode "Lay Down Your Burdens"). This time it's shown that he does it on purpose to stop Brother Cavil's plans. Brother Cavil is brought to the brig protesting that he is not a Cylon until he sees Caprica Cavil already in the brig, at which point he stops pretending. Caprica Cavil announces that the Cylons have voted to give the humans "a reprieve" because they have decided that their attempts at genocide were an error. They have left the colonies and will stop hunting the humans (this scene differs from the same scene in "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part Two": since Mary McDonnell doesn't appear in "The Plan," the Cavils's interaction with Laura Roslin, including her interrogation questions concerning what the Cylons plan to do next, is edited out, as is her order to "airlock" the two Cylons; the order is instead given first by Saul Tigh, and then reiterated by Commander Adama, neither one of whom had these lines in the original episode.) The two Cavils argue while on their way to the airlock. Brother Cavil is in disbelief that the Cylons have decided to leave the humans alone, and continues to argue for their destruction. But Caprica Cavil asserts that Brother Cavil does not understand the nature of love. He says that the Final Five loved humanity, and that Brother Cavil is jealous of this love. Brother Cavil, he claims, does not understand that God and the Final Five will love humanity even more if the human race is extinguished. As they are escorted to the airlock, the Cavils see all of the Final Five Cylons watching them. They admit that this wasn't the reunion they had expected. The two Cavils are then ejected into space. Beforehand, Brother Cavil reveals that there is a second Resurrection Ship nearby and they will download when they die. He plans to box Caprica Cavil and then destroy humanity once and for all, indicating that Galactica Cavil is in fact the same copy that was the main enemy throughout season four. Caprica Cavil quietly tells his other self that he knows how terrifying death can be, and offers his hand, which Brother Cavil takes. The two are ejected, and float out past the fleet. The film ends with this scene overlaid with John Cavil's fourth-season tirade lamenting his human-like body and desiring to be more like a machine so that he could "see gamma rays, hear x-rays, smell dark matter...and feel the solar wind of a super-nova" flowing over him.

- ;The episode opens with a flashback of an indoor pool at Wilkes Military Academy on May 15, 1999. Nash Cavanaugh is coaching a group of young boys in a swimming class. The exercise the boys have to complete requires them to keep their arms above their heads for 60 seconds. One of the young boys, Private Jerry Kasher is having difficulty completing the exercise. He seems like he is drowning. Suddenly, the shot changes and it's Nash Cavanaugh in the pool drowning. The next shot is of him floating face down in the pool and there is blood behind him. At the police headquarters in present day, Scotty keeps checking his cell phone. Elisa was supposed to call him at 9:00 a.m. this morning. Lilly points out that it's only 9:07 a.m. Scotty is still worried. Lilly wonders if Elisa checking in is a regular thing, but Scotty tells her that it's just because she hasn't been doing well lately. Scotty finally gets his call from Elisa. Jeffries walks up with a letter for Lilly that was sent to homicide. He says it doesn't match any current cases. The letterhead is from Wilkes Military Academy − a boot camp boarding school for troubled boys. The letter has the name Nash and the date May 15, 1999, and something called “The Plan”: 1. Ignore 2. Reward 3. Secret 4. Test 5. Escalate 6. Destroy. Jeffries, Lilly, and Scotty decide that it must relate to a homicide, and Nash must be the victim. Lilly and Scotty are down in the case vault, but they can't find any murders from Wilkes or any victims with the name Nash. Stillman tells them that it was listed as an accidental death − drowning. According to the file, Nash had a blood alcohol level of 0.30. They still aren't sure who sent “The Plan”. Lilly says that a handwriting analysis found that a kid wrote it. She looks in the file and finds that a night duty Sergeant named James Creighton found the body. Lilly and Scotty head to Wilkes Academy to speak with Creighton. First, they speak with the Colonel who tells them that he has never seen “The Plan” before, and he says that Nash was respected, had fought in Iraq, and knew how to deal with “slop” − the troubled boys who go to Wilkes. The Sergeant enters, and he tells them that he has never seen “The Plan” before, and he found the body unresponsive at 0600 hours. In the flashback, Nash is yelling at one of the boys in the pool who can't complete the 60 second exercise. The boy's name is Private Jerry Kasher. The Colonel is looking on as Nash yells, and tells Nash to carry on. Jerry fails, but Nash passes him anyway telling him that he will never complete it. Jerry looks defeated. Back in the present, the Colonel tells Lilly and Scotty that “from the child comes forth the soldier”. He says that Jerry is a bad seed. Lilly and Scotty go talk to Jerry Kasher, now 18 years old. He tells them that he really wanted another chance to prove himself to Nash. In the flashback, Jerry jumps back into the pool, raises his arms above his head, and completes the task. Nash is impressed and promises him a prize. Back in the present, Jerry tells Lilly and Scotty that the prize was Nash's respect. Lilly and Scotty meet with Stillman in his office. Lilly believes that Jerry has “gone to the dark side”. She got the sense that he used to worship Nash, but now he seems troubled. Jeffries and Vera bring copies of Jerry Kasher's medical records from Wilkes. According to the records, Jerry made multiple trips to the infirmary in the weeks leading up to Nash's death. He was vomiting drunk, but the place is on 24-hour lockdown and the kids can't get alcohol. Stillman points out that Nash was a drinker. Lilly and Scotty interrogate Jerry about the alcohol. Jerry confesses that Nash gave it to him − it was the prize. In the flashback, Nash comes up to Jerry in the locker room. There is no one else around, and Nash hands him a beer. He tells Jerry that he made him proud, and the beer is his reward. He says that Jerry is special, and he tells him to keep the beer a secret. Back in present, Scotty notices the word secret. Lilly recites the first three parts of “The Plan”: ignore, reward, secret. Nash ignored Jerry in the pool, rewarded him with booze, and told him to keep it a secret. Scotty realizes that Nash was a pedophile, and Jerry gets upset. He says Nash deserved to die, and that he killed him. But he says that he ripped up “The Plan”, and threw it away. Lilly holds it up in her hand. Lilly and Scotty tell Stillman that it doesn't add up because they have “The Plan” and Jerry was just an “80-pound weakling” at the time of Nash's death. Stillman points out that pedophiles usually have multiple victims. Vera comes in with the medical records from Wilkes from 1999. He says that Private R.J. Holden had an episode of bedwetting. Stillman points out that this is a sign of sexual abuse. The night duty Sergeant who reported the incident was Creighton. Meanwhile, Scotty gets a call on his cell phone from Elisa. He tells Stillman that he has to go, and Stillman tells him not to worry about work and to just go. Lilly and Stillman go to Wilkes to question Creighton again. On their way into the Academy, Stillman asks Lilly how long Elisa has been out of the hospital, and she says about a month. They find Creighton, and he tells them that he didn't know about Nash's abuse. In the flashback, Creighton is telling R.J. to walk for wetting the bed. R.J. tries to tell Creighton that Nash grabbed him sexually, but Creighton keeps asking him if he is “a faggot”. R.J. says he's not. Back in the present, Creighton says that he was just disciplining R.J. Meanwhile, Scotty goes to an apartment looking for Elisa. The apartment has Cheerios all over the floor, the TV is on, and the words “The giants came back” are written on a mirror on the bedroom door. Elisa is nowhere to be found. Lilly and Stillman talk to Private R.J. Holden. He denies the bedwetting and the ensuing conversation with Creighton. He says that someone must have made up the report. Lilly says that she doesn't think so, and R.J. snaps back “so blondes think now”. Lilly calls R.J. on his attempt to take the attention off of himself. Lilly and Stillman want to know about number 4 − test. R.J. says he'll talk, but only to Stillman. Lilly walks away, and R.J. begins by saying that he is “not a gay”. In the flashback, Nash tells R.J. that “this is our secret just like the beer”. He says that because R.J. hasn't told anyone, he passes the test. In the present, Stillman wants to know about #5 − escalate. R.J. explains that Nash showed him porn magazines and told him it was okay to touch himself and he wouldn't tell. R.J. says that Nash showed the magazines to other boys too, but he denies knowing Jerry Kasher. He then confesses to murdering Nash. Back at the police station, Lilly points out that both boys deny knowing each other, but they both confessed to the murder. Vera tells them that handwriting says that neither of the boys wrote the letter. Lilly goes to talk to Jerry again; he is now in a jail cell. She tells him that R.J. told her about #5 escalate, and she lies and says R.J. said Jerry was the ringleader. Jerry gets upset and says that it was all Dominic's idea. Lilly wants to know how they found each other. Jerry says that he stole one of Nash's magazines to show around so the other kids would like him. In the flashback, a group of boys is looking at the magazine. R.J. and Jerry are watching from a distance, and there is a third boy watching as well. The third boy, Dominic, walks up and takes the magazine and throws it out. Jerry explains that's when they knew it was happening to Dominic as well. Back in the present, Jerry says that's when they came up with “The Plan” to do to Nash what he did to them − ignore, reward, secret, test, escalate, and destroy. Private Dominic LaSalle enters the police station with the Colonel as his guardian. He was also in Nash's swim class. Stillman has Lilly take Dominic, Jeffries takes R.J., and Vera takes Jerry. Lilly is reluctant to take down another kid ”when the guy deserved to die”. Vera and Stillman wish they had called in sick today. Scotty walks in. He has looked in all the usual places, but can't find Elisa. Stillman suggests that he call it in, but Scotty says he can't because they'll send her back to the hospital. Scotty tells Stillman that he met Elisa playing stickball on their block when they were 14. He says it's the only place Elisa ever felt normal. He heads back out to look for her again. Meanwhile, Lilly, Vera, and Jeffries are separately interrogating Dominic, R.J., and Jerry. Dominic confesses to Lilly that he killed Nash and sent “The Plan”. R.J. tells Jeffries that Dominic figured out Nash's plan. In the flashback, the three boys outline Nash's plan: Ignore = Nash ignored them all in different ways. Reward = the beer. Secret = He made them promise not to tell. Test = He then ensured they didn't tell. Escalate = the adult magazines Destroy They agree to do it all back to Nash. 1. Ignore: The boys didn't show up for swim class 2. Reward: The first person to see Nash, Dominic, would be responsible for the reward. 3. Secret: Dominic intended to get Nash into the pool by seducing him. 4. Test: Nash had no interest in Dominic's offer, so Dominic took off his shirt and begged Nash to stay. 5. Escalate: Dominic had sex with Nash in the pool 6. Destroy: The boys assaulted Nash with paddles until they heard someone coming and ran away. Back in the present at the police station, Lilly believes that the boys shouldn't go down for the murder. Meanwhile, an officer is putting his gun in a locker right past where Lilly, Stillman, Vera, and Jeffries are located. At the same moment, Dominic is led away by another officer. Jerry starts fighting with officers, and Dominic grabs the gun out of the officer's locker. A standoff ensues, and Dominic, distraught with grief over allowing himself to be molested in order to carry out "The Plan" shoots himself, but not before admitting that he wrote "The Plan," but he didn't send it. Stillman tells Lilly that the hospital can't tell for sure right now, but it's looking bad. Lilly seems pretty broken up about the whole thing, and she wants to know who sent “The Plan”. Stillman tells her it's over and leaves. Lilly slams her locker closed. Meanwhile, Scotty finds Elisa sitting on a stoop in their old neighborhood. She says she's sorry, but the giants came back. She's been taking her medicine, but it's not working. Scotty wants to go to the doctor and get stronger medicine, but she says that's what they always do. Elisa wants to go and live with her sister. She remembers the time when they were kids and Scotty scored and won their neighborhood game. He doesn't remember. He is upset and cries on Elisa's lap. Lilly goes to Jerry's and R.J.'s cells. She tells them that Dominic is still in I.C.U. She wants to know who sent “The Plan”. They tell her that Dominic lost it the night of the murder because he kept it in his pocket. In the flashback, the boys are running through the locker room and realize they don't have it anymore. They make a pact to never tell anyone about everything that had happened. If they are caught, then they are to go down for the whole thing alone like a soldier. Back in the present, R.J. explains that Dominic went back for “The Plan” that night, but they don't know if he found it. At the hospital, Creighton is sitting by Dominic's side. Lilly comes in and seems surprised to see Creighton. He says that Dominic should have the Bronze Star that he was given because he deserves it more. He says, “from the child comes forth the soldier”. Lilly points out that Nash always said that phrase. Creighton says, “after”. Lilly realizes that he was a lifeguard during Nash's swim classes and he found the body; its also hinted that he was also a past victim of Nash's. Creighton admits sending “The Plan” to the police because the world needed to know what Nash did. Since this was the last class affected by Nash, Creighton didn't want the secret to go away with them. Creighton wants Lilly to let the boys go and arrest him instead. He then admits with much disdain and guilt, he's become the very monster Nash was. Stating he wished to be locked away before he hurt anyone the same way Nash had and that the boys shouldn't have to pay for Nash's death. Lilly can't let the boys go because they murdered someone, but Creighton says they didn't. In the flashback, the boys run off and Creighton enters the pool area. At first, he starts to help Nash, but then he pushes him under and drowns him. As he's leaving the pool area, he finds “The Plan,” picks it up, and tidies the area. The closing scenes start with Creighton placing his Bronze Star on Dominic's chest, and then Lilly leads him away. Jeffries and Vera release Jerry and R.J. Scotty cleans the words Elisa wrote on the mirror, Lilly takes Dominic's hand as he lies in the hospital bed in a coma. Lilly and Henderson watch the current swim class at Wilkes, and they see Nash's reflection in the pool. As the boys start swimming it fades away.
