Was that an order? It was in Italics, that's kind of like Bold. If you're Gaeta.
Ok, ships have moved, and Dee has a chance to kick back and relax. By having someone beat the crap out of her. Dee's crisis is:
In The Ring
Skill Check (12 YGP)
Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Roslin plays first, Dee last.
BSG (Starbuck the Totally Healthy Human)
Pass on interrupts.
I can help a lot.
I'll only be able to help out in the future if someone gets me out of Sickbay. It's going to get awkward if you can't do it, Madame President.
Hey, Jump Icon and no Raiders Activation, nice.
BSG (Muhammad a-Dee)
Check after check, and we keep overplaying! How are we doing on cards? I can help on this one, but I don't want to overplay by so much again. And we really want to pass this one!
Pass on interrupts.
I don't want to risk triggering the Consequence.
BSG (Starbuckle Down)
You
really want to pass this one. Kidding, we could all use a Morale boost, I'm sure.
Destiny's been with us, so surely that can't keep happening.
BSG (Dr Detector)
Sorry for the delay. Usually there is a patient/doctor confidentiality. But, I'm not a medical doctor, so I don't have to worry about that. You will be happy to learn that the blood test from Starbuck had interesting results. The rabbit did NOT die, but it was severely inebriated. Either way, the electronic boards were all green lights, which I think means she's a human. But I'm still new to this machine. I reserve the right to test her (well, everyone) again later on, just in case they catch scurvy and turn on us, or something.
Given her BAC level, and her awesome flying abilties the first couple turns, I think we should get all the pilots drunk! Anyhow, when she sobers up, you can release her from the sick bay.
BSG
Yes, we should pass this check. I can help some on this one.
BSG (Tigh)
I can help on the check.

Tally: 25 - 1 = 24. Pass!
Morale increases by 1. Why? Well, Dee has been saved from a beating; however, that BYC in the check triggers the Consequence. Dee has opted to
give Baltar a severe face-punching,
and he lands in Sickbay to riotous applause.
The BYC was sufficient to trigger the Consequence, but the check was not Reckless, so it does not activate raiders. Instead, the jump track advances by 1 to finish Dee's turn. Roslin's cards are going out. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
