How about Guillotine? Not particularly long, and I think it would be okay to be interrupted...

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

Well, no one seems to have a problem with Comms, so that's where Helo moves. I have passes from everyone on SPs, so we're ready for the nuclear strike (now with added nuclei).
Die roll: 1. Man, the dice have not been kind to you lately. The nuke does two tokens' worth of damage to the basestar:
Structural Damage
Disabled Hangar
It lives! Won't be launching anything, though. That concludes Apollo's XO to Helo, and we move on to the Chief. He has left some orders to, let's see, where did he leave it? Ah, yes:
Reveal as a Cylon
Send Apollo to Sickbay
Apollo, in addition to landing in Sickbay, you must discard 5 cards. Due to your weakness, these discards are random. Let's see what you've got:
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 2
Declare Emergency 4
Launch Scout 2
Evasive Maneouvre 1
To balance things out, the Chief must also discard 5 cards, down to 3. He moves to the Resurrection Ship and discards:
Support the People 1
Executive Order 1
Declare Emergency 3
Repair 1
Scientific Research 3
Anders is up next, in the next post.

Haha doomed! Not only is ND always the Cylon, but he's an organized Cylon, with buddies! State of Emergency is so great!

Anders has also left COs, which are: since the basestar is still there, activate Weapons Control. This roll is at +2 due to the Structural Damage:
Die roll: 5 + 2 = 7. Hit! The basestar is destroyed!
On to Gaetabot, the galaxy's most technologically advanced pogo stick, who has also left COs:
Draw another super crisis
Tory is next. I don't have any COs, so Tory, you may either move or take an action. When you're ready, please post your orders.

Wow, this is the worst emergency ever.
Die roll: 1. Man, the dice have not been kind to you lately.
Geez.
Reveal as a Cylon
I KNEW IT. WHY AM I ALWAYS RIGHT ABOUT THE CYLONS. WHY.
Apollo, in addition to landing in Sickbay, you must discard 5 cards.
Whaaaat? That's part of the Reveal? I NOW HAVE THE SHITTIEST HAND EVER WE'RE SCREWED.
(Question: can I Alert Viper Pilot out of Sickbay?)
Repair 1
LYING CYLON SCUM.
State of Emergency is so great!
...At least we destroyed the basestar? ...Yay?
The basestar is destroyed!
Hurrah!
Draw another super crisis
Yep, knew that was coming.
All right, Team Human! The Cylons are revealed, so let's make it to Kobol as quickly as we can! Tory, Assign Mission Specialist!

You can indeed. You can't AVP out of the Brig, of course, but from anywhere else on Galactica is fair game.

Is it too late to play my MV-2?

Man, it's just one frakking thing after another. Clearly we're on the downhill run to the season finale.
I will Activate the Pres' Office, draw one Quorum card, play Assign Mission Specialist on Helo, and draw 2 Green.
