Geez, Sickbay's getting crowded. I would volunteer for the Loyalty check, but we still have civvies in danger and not a lot of protection. Sending Six to Sickbay would be fun. She doesn't draw that many cards anyway, AND we don't really need to worry about waiting for Tigh to XO her since she can't, like, Reveal. Although she could jump back to the Resurrection Ship and do some damage, if she were so inclined. Which I don't think she is.
Actually, Tigh might be the best choice. We don't need him in Weapons Control now, and Starbuck trusts him enough to XO him on her turn.

the card specifies that Tigh chooses
another
player, so he can't choose himself. This is a brutal interrogation, not an opportunity for some aggressive soul-searching.

GODSDAMMIT.

If I send Roslin she's got a whole round to receive an XO.
I'm trying to decide between Roslin and Six. What does my crew think?
BSG(Sixstructive)
If you interrogate me, you lose the chance to check a Loyalty card. You know, like the President's?
Also, if I don't blow my Movement phase leaving Sickbay, I can boost my hand with Intimacy to help more with Skill Checks. AND XO somebody to start repairs.
Speaking of - who's in a position to head over to Pegasus and start fixing stuff?
BSG (Starbuck)
Actually, Dee, you'll need an XO to do your Comms thing anyway, if you were in Sickbay at the time you'd just have to move first. I guess you'd lose an opportunity to scout or something, but that would be kind of an efficient option.
I would be a very poor choice as I need to stay where I am to be effective if we're attacked, and my loyalty card's been checked once. Six is an interesting possibility, though no loyalty card at all. Tigh wouldn't see her Agenda, I assume. Dee or Roslin seem like the leading contenders.
BSG (Dee-fenestrative)
I'd lean toward Six, if only because Roslin would have to burn a card to get back to the PO. Six also can't play a lot into checks anyway, so cards aren't as big a deal for her, though of course we want her to get good cards for us.
BSG (Tigh)
oh yeah the loyalty card thing. The only human I mistrust at this point is Baltar (and that's just because he has an extra card) but unfortunately he's already in sickbay.

That is a point, actually. I would lose the chance to Scout, but I think this is actually a better option because then we'd have a Baltar -> Starbuck -> Tigh -> Dee line of trust.
Let's do it.
BSG

Six is limited in the number of cards she can play; however, note that, while infiltrating, she may play up to two cards into a skill check. (In addition, while infiltrating, she normally draws three cards instead of two.)
Six is an interesting possibility, though no loyalty card at all. Tigh wouldn't see her Agenda, I assume.
That is correct.
