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

BSG (Ellen)

I am not growing a—oh, you meant Bill.

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

BSG

That's long enough for interrupts. Let's see if Ellen's been honing her face-punching skills:

Die roll: 6. Success! The Centurion goes down, face-punched with extreme prejudice! The other one just stands there staring at Ellen, like "Dude, that is so hot!"

Ellen is acclaimed as a hero! (Except by Boomer, who's like, standing right there. Awkward!) What can she and her face-punching skills do for an encore? Ellen's crisis, the first of New Caprica, is:

Rescue Detainees
Current Player's Choice

Ellen, when you're ready, please post your choice. Everyone else can send me COs for her options.

BSG (Muhammad Elli)

Yeah, take THAT!

Since everyone passed, I'm guessing we wouldn't have a plan to keep someone out of Detention if I chose Option 2, so I'm leaning toward the skill check since I have cards to burn anyway. Everyone able to help out against a Morale hit?

(On other hand, 50-50 no one goes to Detention? I could volunteer so that everyone else could get to work on prepping ships and whatnot. I don't know. Conflicted!)

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

BSG (Tory)

I can only help a little with the check but I can convene a committee.

Committees are my favorite kind of mittees! Let's go with Option 1, then.

Pass on interrupts.

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can send me COs for the check itself too if you wish. Gaeta plays first, Ellen last.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG

No interrupts.

I can only help a little.

Everyone else passes on interrupts. It had to happen eventually; seems Destiny likes those detainees right where they are. The play so far:

Destiny: Repair 2, Scientific Research 4
Gaeta: Executive Order 2
Tory:
Adama:
Boomer:
Ellen:

Running tally: 2 - 6 = -4. Fail. Tory is up next.
