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.

OK, from a Cylon location, I
can
play into Skill Checks, but I
can't
use cards for their text. What about Interrupts?
'cause given the way we keep overshooting, if I can use ICs from here, it might be best for now if I stayed here, mined the Politics deck, and kept Scouting crises.

No, that too is using a card for its text. If you infiltrate the fleet, however, you count as human for most purposes, including being able to play cards for their effect.
BSG (Sick doc)
Wait? Why I am I here? I feel perfectly fine. Oh I can get meds? Oh. Well. I suppose that's OK.
BSG (Starbuck)
If Sickbay is getting short on beds I am absolutely ready to get out of here!
Nice shiner, Gaius.
BSG (Roslin)
Okay, so what needs to happen to get Starbuck out of the brig?
BSG (Dee)
She's not in the Brig. She's in Sickbay. You just XO her.
BSG
what about me? What am I? Chopped liver?
