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

Cards sent. I think we can all agree that when you're under heavy attack is the perfect time for a piss-up. Gaeta's crisis is:

Colonial Day
Current Player's Choice

Mr Gaeta, when you're ready, please post your choice. If Gaeta chooses the skill check, possible interrupts are: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone can send me COs for the eventuality, as well as your play into the skill check. (Tory would begin it, Gaeta would finish it.)

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

I can help a lot on the check. We should go for it.

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

BSG (Your Humble President, Tory the Great)

You know, I was going to draw red, but so many of them only apply to when 'you' are piloting a viper I wasn't sure what the chances of drawing something helpful would be.

I agree we should go for the check and I am prepared to launch an investigation to make sure Colonial Day is a success.

Yeah, it's a gamble, but I figured that even if I didn't pull an EM, I'd have Red for a check.

Orders from Mr Gaeta: choose the check. Tory plays an IC-3. Everyone else passes on interrupts.

Tory plays first into the check:

Destiny: Guts and Initiative 1, Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Tory:
Adama:
Boomer:
Ellen:
Gaeta: (COs received)

Running tally: 1 - 1 = 0. Fail.
