What interests me about that scene is that Boomer goes "What girl don't you know?" but Helo being a player never gets mentioned again. Seems like there are stories to be told.
Very true, Helo being a player isn't mentioned ever again, and he certainly seems like a one-woman guy for the rest of the series. I bet they just forgot about that line when they decided not to kill Helo off. I do like how Helo being a player shows up a lot in Academy fic though.
Wait, what's all this business about killing Helo off in the pilot?? Was the whole Helo/Athena/Hera plot an afterthought? That's kind of a big change to make, isn't it?

He's so tall and drinkable, it's hard to imagine women not falling all over him when he's young, single and somewhat wide-eyed.
It's possible they were considering some kind of Cylon/human cross-breeding subplot anyway, but it may not have been Helo/Sharon. RDM has spoken about it several times, though. (Recommended: the roundtable podcast w/ Ron, Tahmoh, Bamber, Callis, etc., which features him explaining how post-DGA screening of the mini everyone wanted to know what was going to happen to Helo on Caprica, and he realized that was a huge story worth telling. Also Tahmoh talking about his excitement in getting called back, which is just adorkable. ;) )
