Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

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

Mark just watched "Exodus, Part II" so now I am all excited to get to New Caprica so Adama can jump Galactica into the atmosphere. He can do that as an Action, right?

Galactica jumps back in when you complete the jump cycle. The Admiral jumps back out as an action. There is also a New Caprica crisis card called "Intra-Atmos Entry".

Eh. I'm still short on cards for now. Think I'll save it for something better.

Go, mammals, go! Burn those expendable cards so all you have left next crisis are the irreplaceable ones!

I play no cards.

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

BSG (Still your faithful president Tory)

I play PP-3, PP-4, CP-1

I believe that brings us to 22 and a pass. Are you still human over there, Bill?

Orders from the Admiral: pass on playing cards. The check passes! 22 points wins you a No Effect!

That concludes Adama's turn. Boomer starts her turn on the Resurrection Ship, so she draws only one card. She has opted to draw Treachery. Boomer, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
