But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

Unexpected Reunion

I did a double take at this since I was skimming and read it as Unexpected Penguin. Which, given that it was billytea, is not that unexpected.

Hahaha! Nobody expects the unexpected penguin!

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

BSG

Gaeta plays an IC-3; everyone else passes on interrupts. The check begins.

Unexpected Reunion: 8 YGP

Destiny: 2 cards
Apollo: Preventative Policy 3
Kat: No cards
Adama:
Tory:
Gaeta: (max 3 cards)

Running tally: 3 + Destiny.

Adama is up next. Administrative note: Destiny's play has reduced the destiny deck to 6 cards. I've refilled and reshuffled it.

Boy, I hope there's no Red Tape in Destiny......

I play Green 4 Declare Emergency.

That should put the running total to 16. Destiny would really have to hate us to put us in failure.

BSG

I have orders from Mr Gaeta to play 0 cards. Let's see what Destiny adds:

Unexpected Reunion: 8 YGP

Destiny: Declare Emergency 3, Trust Instincts 0
Apollo: Preventative Policy 3
Kat: No cards
Adama: Declare Emergency 4, At Any Cost 5
Tory: Declare Emergency 4
Gaeta: 0 cards

Tally: 19 - 0 = 19. Pass! But Destiny has added a TI-0, which means two more cards are on their way:

Preventative Policy 4, Launch Scout 1

Tally: 24 - 0 24. Pass!

So, that went well. Galactica knows how to party, amirite? Less promising: the five raiders now open fire on Apollo.

Raider 1: 3. Miss.
Raider 2: 1. Miss.
Raider 3: 5. Hit!
He'd been doing so well, but now he lands in Sickbay. The last two raiders move to Sector 2.

That concludes Gaeta's turn. Apollo starts his turn in Sickbay, and therefore may draw only one card. He has chosen to draw Yellow. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
