Complete story — includes the ending

After Baltar mocks Six's belief in God, she disappears from his mind. A physical copy of Six appears on Galactica, introducing herself as "Shelly Godfrey" and accusing Baltar of sabotaging the human defenses before the Cylon attack on the Colonies. Baltar desperately tries to prove his innocence, but fails. After he prays to God and pledges himself to His will, Six reappears in his mind, and Gaeta, who was studying evidence presented by Godfrey, finds it to be fake; Baltar is released and publicly exonerated, while Godfrey mysteriously disappears from the ship. Meanwhile, Boomer helps Tyrol make progress in analyzing the Cylon Raider captured by Starbuck, and Roslin temporarily gets sick due to overdoing her anti-cancer medication, causing a brief fleet-wide scare. On Caprica, Helo and Sharon are on the run from the Cylon Centurions. As they hide, Helo confesses of his feelings for her and they make love.
