Having unintentionally brought about the near-annihilation of the human species, Baltar flees Caprica when Karl Agathon gives up his place on a Raptor, feeling that his own life is less important to save than a famed scientist's.
The album takes it name from a quote in the first episode of the 2004 reboot of Battlestar Galactica where Gaius Baltar tells Caprica Six "You're a woman," to which she responds "I'm a machine".
