I have added a field to the basic page content type (a field collection field, to be exact). I want to be able to pull out the content of each field and display it in different format. How can I do this? Which variable contains this data? I am using an override of page.tpl.php.

EDIT: I did try dpm($node) and I see the field collection field. However this is the structure I see - 

field_call_to_action['und'][0]['value']
which is equal to 231. I still don't see the actual values of the fields in the field collection.

    entity_load('field_collection_item', array($node->field_collection_name['und']['0']['value']));

You may use entity_load. I have a project in which I use Field Collections as you, and this is a fragment of code in my module. I hope it helps you. The key is the use of entity_load.

    foreach($node->field_imagenes["und"] as $value){
                $a = entity_load('field_collection_item',     array($value["value"]));
                $prefered = false;
                if(isset($a[$value["value"]]->field_prefered_image["und"][0]["value"]) ...
