Sheesh.

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

BSG

I don't suppose if I'm still in the brig by the end of my turn I get to go to sickbay?

Alas, no.

I wonder if your turn would be better spent getting you out of the brig or XOing Tigh to nuke the basestar, if you draw one. Once you're out of the brig, though, you can make a suicide attack.

Sheesh.

You suck at brigging AND unbrigging. You just suck all around, Tory.

If you stay in the brig, no crisis. And we can maybe build up some card strength before we try to get you out. You're limited in what you can do while you're in, of course, but if you can work around that it might be a good choice for now.

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

BSG

I'm afraid not; your weakness only applies to, well, every other location on the board. But not the Brig, because that would just be silly.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

Can I switch Cally's sickbay meds with a lethal dose of my smack? Which card do I need to draw for that?

Meanwhile, the Engine Room has been repaired, and cards gone out. Time for a Crisis, no? Chief Tyrol, I don't know how you got the help together to repair the Engine Room, or what sort of reckless approach you were taking, but your crisis is:

Defending a Prisoner
Skill Check (11 YG)

The usual interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.

There is a Quorum Card, "Execute Prisoner", that would do the trick. (Note that if you're human, getting executed will cost 1 Morale.)

Oy. Pass on interrupts. I can't really help on this check.

Kat, if you can XO me on your turn I can use a nuke and also try to boost our Morale. then if I draw an XO we can try to get you out on my turn, and I should have more cards for that check.
