The player must reveal it at once. If a resource is in the red zone (half full or less), the player goes to the Brig and the card counts as a "You Are Not a Cylon" card, so it does not make them a Cylon. If every resource is more than half full, the player becomes a revealed Cylon and follows the revealed Cylon steps, but never activates the Cylon Fleet location or plays Super Crisis cards. Which side the player ends on depends on those resource colours.
