I'm going with Option 2 it seems the safest choice at this point.

Wait,what? You aren't waiting for the Pradmiral to decide if you want to be Reckless. That seems rather hasty. Well, to cover your beautiful ass (and yes, I say that to all the women), I PLAY Strategic Planning 5 to help with the roll.
(what? I told you I could help real good one way or the other. This is what you get for not trusting me)

I thought I had to pick one of the two before anyone could play cards or decide to do anything?

Whatevs. You picked. I played. May the Gods be with us now. We need a hot gal to blow on the dice. Boxcars baby!!! (wait, we aren't playing craps, and it's only one die).

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

That is correct. The other players can proffer opinions, and offer to play interrupts (truthfully or not), and they can certainly put in COs with me; but nothing actually happens until you make your choice.
Which you have now done. let's roll the die.
Die roll: 2 + 2 = 4. Fail! MYYYY SHIIIIIPS!
The raiders activate immediately, moving to Sector 2. Finally, the jump track shifts off the Start. That concludes Cally's turn. Starbuck starts her turn in Sickbay, and therefore may draw only one card. She has opted to draw Purple. Card going out now.

Well damn.
I was torn between this and option 1, but it didn't seem like enough assurance we could pass the check. and the plus 2 seemed like it was more of a sure thing.
guess it wasn't.

Well; whether it was more of a sure thing isn't immediately apparent. It had a 75% chance of coming off; whether the skill check was on a par with it is an open question.

Change of plans; with the appearance of the raiders, Starbuck has changed her draw to Red. Card going out now.
