He "Thought of Something"

Have you noticed that Boomer has intuitions that are strongly connected to her Cylon status? For instance, I just rewatched the scene in "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part 2" where she lands in the Base Star, and one line caught my attention. Concerning docking in the Base Star, she says, "It will work. I just know it."

In "The Hand of God", Apollo is in an attack force of Vipers. Everyone else around him is getting slaughtered. He is one of two or three Vipers that survives the initial Cylon defenses. What does he do? He "thinks of something". He finds a hole in the Cylon defenses, slips in there, and bombs the whole place to smithereens. Oh, and by the way, Gaius had a similar "lucky guess" when he pointed out the place to bomb. The Cylon expert was right, but how was his hand just lead to that exact spot? He has a really specially dynamic with Six and with his own self-confidence, which I will get into later.

Actually, Lee hit a different target than the one Baltar pointed out. Baltar pointed at a buncha spherical things and said "hit any one of those." Even though he's surrounded by spherical things, Lee targetted the one non-spherical thing in the area.
