The '''bribing man'''<ref>{{bsgwiki term}}</ref> is a man with a lot of money at his disposal who tries to escape the bombing of [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]].

The man (and a woman, presumably his wife) is part of a large mob of people in the rural outskirts outside the cities of Caprica who are running away from the blasts. The mob heads for the Raptor (crewed by [[Karl Agathon|Helo]] and [[Sharon Valerii|Boomer]]) after seeing it land. The mob includes a [[Lady with glasses|old forgetful woman]], [[Giana|a woman with a missing husband in the Colonial Fleet]], a very [[desperate man]], and [[Gaius Baltar]].

The man offers 50,000 [[cubit]]s to Helo as a bribe to get on board. Helo refuses his offer as well as that of another man (off-screen) who counters with 60,000 cubits.

The man's lottery number is not picked, and he and his wife are left behind on Caprica.

It is likely that the man, along with every other refugee in the crowd (except Helo, who carries [[anti-radiation medication]]), eventually succumbs to radiation poisoning<ref>The fate of these refugees is confirmed in the special [[Sci Fi Channel]] program, ''[[Battlestar Galactica: The Story So Far]]''.</ref> ([[Miniseries, Night 1]]).
