 Zarek secretly authorizes a group called "The Circle", consisting of Colonel Tigh, Chief Tyrol, Samuel Anders, and three others to judge and execute those whom they unanimously find to have collaborated with the Cylons during their occupation of New Caprica.There is no formal trial; instead, the Circle reviews the available evidence, votes, and then offers the convicted a chance to plead their case.At least thirteen people are executed, including the spacing of flight deck specialist James "Jammer" Lyman.
