(A Brig check has been suggested. If it goes ahead, possible interrupts are IC, SR, Reckless. I'm taking COs if anyone would like to send them.)

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

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

I can't help with the brig check but I'm all for it.

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

I can help a lot with the brig check, but I might have to play cards that could be useful on my turn. If I recall, we weren't in a great position on Anders's turn. Have things changed?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Do we think Destiny is in our favor?

Not likely, by my count. In fact, we are very likely to get Treachery, given that we haven't seen any yet. But we're only going for 5, so it shouldn't be too bad.

I'm in favor of an XO to debrig me. Let's get this party started! Spring me from this cooler!

I think Apollo and I can get it up to where a neutral Destiny would let us pass. If we can get a couple more cards to give us a safe cushion, I think we can pass easy. Anders?

I'm up for it. And I'll happily give a "frak you" to destiny.

In that case:
MOVE: I will boldly stay right here in the hopes of being XO'd to work the Quorum again.
ACTION: I play XO-1 on Anders to, hopefully, let him spring himself.

I have COs from Anders:
Action 1: Use Star Player ability. Anders discards:
Trust Instincts 0
Launch Scout 1
He then draws 2 Purple to replace them. Cards being sent.
Action 2: Activate the Brig check. Play Guts and Initiative 1 as an interrupt.
Anders is attempting to escape the Brig. This is a 7 YP check. Other possible interrupts: IC, SR. It is also possible for another player to play a different Reckless interrupt instead of Anders' G&I. If this occurs, Zarek (as current player) chooses which Reckless interrupt gets played. Everyone, please pass or play on interrupts.
In addition, President Zarek, you may use your Friends in Low Places to raise or lower the check difficulty by 2. Would you like to use it (and in which direction)?
