The fix is in:
Destiny:
2 cards
Tory:
0 cards
Chief:
0 cards
Kat:
0 cards
Cally:
3 cards
Tigh:
1 card
Cards played:
Investigative Committee 5
Iron Will 0
At Any Cost 5
Evasive Maneouvre 1
Jury Rigged 2
Scientific Research 4
Tally: 10 - 7 = 3. Fail!
The check is not within 4 of passing, so Iron Will does not trigger. Conversely, the tally is above 0, so no Morale is lost for it.
Result: lose 1 Morale, and Tigh sends someone to Sickbay. COs from Tigh: order the marines to go beat up on a defenceless girl. (What? She doesn't have her gun anymore.) Cally lands in Sickbay.
Finally, the basestar pops out a heavy raider, and the jump track advances. That concludes Tigh's turn. Tory's cards are going out. Tory, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: Tory's card draw has exhausted the Politics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

Yeeeeah, baby, give me that Political Prowess!
Those cards are confusing me. I guess my Destiny count was off. New Destiny deck now, correct?
BSG
Was Destiny created before or after the Politics deck was reshuffled? I REALLY WANT POLITICAL PROWESS.

Destiny was created after the reshuffle. Technically, it should've been done as soon as the old Destiny deck was depleted, but I didn't notice immediately. All shuffles are random, so it doesn't really matter. (And either way, Destiny plus Tory have taken the same number of cards, so we're 3 cards into the reshuffled Politics deck either way.)
BSG
Okay, I
play CS3
to capitalize on the fact that I can't move. For my movement phase, I
play CP1 to draw 2 yellow.
For my action phase, I
activate the Brig
to try to get out of the pokey. I
play IC-3 as an interrupt
to get a better feel for what my odds are.
BSG
The Brig, she is activated. The check is a 7 YP. Possible interrupts: IC (played!), SR, Reckless, Political Prowess. Everyone, please pass or play. You can send me COs for your play into the check too. The Chief will be first to play, Tory last.
BSG
Tory can only play one card into this check?
Eta: I
pass on interrupts.
