I'm happy to lower the difficulty to brig anyone who isn't me at this point, but that's all I'd be able to do.
If it's any consolation, if Cally really wants to shoot you, your not going to Research Lab would just make her move to do so, it wouldn't necessarily keep you alive.
If you're really suspicious of Tory, you can XO me and I can take the Presidency.

Yeah, I don't think that will be enough help, unfortunately.

That's why I'm considering launching into a Viper to get away from her. Of course, we are likely to jump after my turn, but better safe than sorry, especially if we're attacked before we jump. Plus, it's fun.
If you're really suspicious of Tory, you can XO me and I can take the Presidency.
Oh! I am really suspicious of her! That sounds like fun! As a bonus, you'll be able to see if she's been hoarding any Quorum Cards that would have been useful to play earlier, AND there might be a brigging or executing card we can use.
Man, I hate that we have to deal with the internal Cylon threat rather than repair our frakking Vipers, but it's an investment in our future.
I
launch into Sector 5
and
play XO-1 on Tigh.
Of course, I don't know whether you should move to the Admiral's Quarters or the President's Office. Or launch a scout, if you have one.
BSG
Woohoo it's a coup! What could be more comforting, in these troubled times, when it is so hard to know friend from foe, than martial law? Madame President, you are relieved of your office.
I
use my OPG to become Pradmiral.
I'll pause for a moment to let that sink in and see what it gets me before my second action.

Oh, good point! Maybe you can brig or execute Cally lickety-split. Denying a Cylon a Reveal power AND a Super Crisis? Perhaps we could actually stand a chance.
BSG
Tigh is now Pradmiral. Quorum cards are being sent out. Pradmiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post your second action.
BSG
Seriously? Seriously! Looking a little power-hungry over there, eh Tigh?
I just have to say, as your President I did the best I could under the circumstances for these people and this ship. I am truly sorry you feel that this is a necessary action.
I hold my head at a particularly Tory Foster, citizen, sort of angle, and stalk off. And my neck scarf flares dramatically as I go. I can be wearing a scarf, right? I'm probably wearing a scarf.
And all I can say to the rest of you is, you'd better ware having a Pradmiral Tight. Oops, typo. OR IS IT?
BSG

Better than the typo I saw in another game, where one player consistently referred to him as "Admiral Thigh".
BSG
Are you calling me cheap?!?
Wait, no, you're probably calling me drunk. Carry on.
BSG
Well, the Quorum is bloody useless, Tory is vindicated on that score.
I'll take my second action to
Scout for Fuel-6
If there's an SP available, that would be handy.
