I can't help on this one. I play no cards.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Tigh is up next. So far no one has played into the check.

If only I'd gotten Australia. Then we'd be in business.

Look, guys, I can play something that may help or may hurt, or I can help a little bit with a card that might be more useful in another context, or I can sit this one out. I don't know what to do.

I think it's fine. Hell, I know what your cards are, and I'm still not 100% sure what you mean.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I don't know, Tigh. I went through the past checks, and signs are definitely pointing to Tory as the other person who spiked the brigging. If she's a human who simply believes Cally to be innocent, then she shouldn't have initiated the brigging and spiked the check. That's not what a human would do. That wastes our cards. It would be different if it were a Crisis Card that had a brigging consequence and she chose to spike it to save someone she believed to be innocent.

This is to say that I actually would LIKE Tory to lose all her cards, but I don't want to take the damage hit.

Which is to say, do the one that may help or may hurt because it sounds fun and whatevs, I DON'T KNOW ANYMORE.

Personally I think Starbuck is one of two Cylons, with Tory being the other one. Starbuck has been leading us on this merry chase of accusations and is now pushing for another brig check which will burn even more of our valuable cards. Right now we should be working on getting repairs done while we are not surrounded by raiders and instead we are running in circles burning all of our cards.

Personally, I know I'm human, and you all should too. I played 1 card, and I think you can deduce which one it was, and it proves I didn't spike Tigh's skill check.

It's not a merry chase. There's evidence, and Tigh sees it too.

Right now we should be working on getting repairs done while we are not surrounded by raiders and instead we are running in circles burning all of our cards.

I'd love to be working on getting repairs done, but there's a greater risk at stake here. Hell, one of the Reveal powers is to damage Galactica. That would be one more thing we'd have to repair. We've got enough as it is.

Tory? Do you have an opinion on what I should do now? Will a little bit of help make a difference, you think?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG

Yeah, I could use the help, for sure. I am still too sleep deprivation addled to do the math on what happened that last check, but as far as this one goes, a little bit and friendly destiny might make all the difference in the world.
