Aren't there more civvies?
Well, let's hope we jump away soon, guys!
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

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

Yikes. Well, that changes our immediate outlook considerably.
Eta: you still looking for input on what to do, Cally? Because there are a lot of possibilities.

I'm open to input/suggestions (as long as you aren't a secret Cylon...)

Can you XO Baltar to fire on the basestar? Or maybe the heavies?

I'm certified human! Certified by Dr. Baltar, so I could understand some skepticism, but in this case he's correct.
Anyway, your options. Jumping soon has become more important as we do not want to bring Centurions with us when we jump (as will happen if any of those Heavy Raiders make it on board). You could activate the Engine Room and get us closer to Autojumping. That's a gamble because if your crisis already has a jump icon we don't get an extra one, but everything in this game is a gamble.
You could also more to FTL to be ready to make us jump early and XO someone else to shoot some of those cylons (I would not be the best choice for that as I don't have powerful cards right now. Shoot, and we have no one stationed in Command, which would've been handy. Maybe Tigh to shoot at the basestar or Baltar to get somewhere useful. Or Roslin to work some Quorum magic. And maybe you should move to Command instead of FTL.
I can throw out some more confusing and contradictory possibilities!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I support this option. Being in Sickbay hurts everyone in times of crisis... and this is a crisis!!

Sorry Baltar, you are going to have to stew in sick bay for awhile.
Since this is my first turn, I'm going to be a little brash --
Cally moves to Command and activates a viper sending it to Sector One.
(Hopefully that's not a totally stupid move that messes us up, but launching vipers looks like fun and I wanted to try it).

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

The fleet now has cover from both directions, which may be just as well because the Cylons have you:
Surrounded
Cylon Attack
This card opens by activating basestars.
Die roll: 4. Hit! Cally, as current player it's your choice: did they hit Galactica or Pegasus?
Finally, due to this card's special rule, the current player must discard three cards. Cally, when you're ready, please post your choice of discards.

um...oops?
Pegasus gets the hit. I'll discard 2B/1P

The Engine Room is damaged. Cally's discards are:
Launch Scout 1
Repair 1
Repair 1
That concludes Cally's turn. Starbuck has opted for Green as her optional draw. Cards are going out now. Starbuck, when you're ready, please post your move and action. A reminder: as you start your turn piloting a viper, you may move and take two actions this turn.
