It's Helo's Emergency turn. We are also waiting on the ruling on playing the Major Victory. I think it should be fine.
Well, Helo, I don't know what else you can do. Activate Comms for fun? Move somewhere else?
That's insane troll logic!

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

I'll move to the Research Lab. We might need some help with repairs since our chief mechanic turned out to be a cylon. No wonder he was so good with machines.

Well, that was certainly more eventful than our last State of Emergency.

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

We are also waiting on the ruling on playing the Major Victory.
In order to play a Major Victory, it has to be you personally who destroyed the basestar or Centurion. Since Anders blew up the basestar, I'm afraid Helo can't play the MV.
I will Activate the Pres' Office, draw one Quorum card, play Assign Mission Specialist on Helo, and draw 2 Green.
Problem: Tory starts the game in the Press Room; you're not yet in the President's Office. You can still use your action to Assign Mission Specialist, you just can't draw another Quorum card in the process. Do you wish to do that?
I'm more miffed about losing all my good cards. Which I still don't understand! Why did that happen??
It's part of the impact of the Chief's reveal. He gets to choose any player on Galactica (good thing you landed!). That player discards five cards and goes to Sickbay. The discards are random because of your weakness.
Once we get confirmation on Tory's action, we'll finish this Emergency and get on to Apollo's crisis.

You editing bastard.
Fine. I play Mission Specialist on Helo, and draw two Green.
Guys! XOs will let me build up my hand! Which we DESPERATELY NEED right now!

Phew! That was eventful, wasn't it? I mean, it didn't look like it was an emergency at the start of Apollo's turn, but looking back, I think we can all agree that he knew better.
But how did Apollo know better? Seems someone's been telling him some:

Frak the skill check. I choose Option 2.

Well that's tricky. Given the way we've been hemorrhaging cards, I'd almost say pick 2 and save them for later.
Also, billytea, didn't Chief send me something?
