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

The fix is in! Pegasus is restored to its formerly pristine state. Unfortunately, it seems that in doing so, Gaeta has offended the apocalyptic cult (led by former Admiral Cain, why not?) that had taken control of the CIC, and they're holding him hostage! Can the crew rescue him? Gaeta's crisis is:

Defending a Prisoner
Skill Check (11 YG)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Apollo plays first, Gaeta last.

I'm still worried there is another sleeper toaster in the midst. I play IC-3. Let's keep this check open. And let's pass it! Our morale is low. Let's not make it lower! So say we all!

I agree that there certainly ought to be another toaster in our midst, but I haven't been able to ferret anything out yet.

Pass on interrupts, I can help with the check.

I play XO-2 and DE-3

Tory, you'd better be prepared to take this one higher.

Aw crap. Only 5 out of 11. Plus destiny?

I play:
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 2
Consolidate Power 2
Consolidate Power 2

I hope that's enough.

Adding Gaeta's and Destiny's contributions:

Defending a Prisoner: 11 YG

Destiny: Evasive Manoeuvre 1, Scientific Research 3
Apollo: 0 cards
Kat: 0 cards
Adama: Executive Order 2, Declare Emergency 3
Tory: Consolidate Power 1, Consolidate Power 1, Consolidate Power 2, Consolidate Power 2, Consolidate Power 2
Gaeta: Investigative Committee 4

Tally: 17 - 4 = 13. Pass! Cain is mollified with the promise that "now it can get blown up all over again".

The heavy raiders, however, take advantage of the excitement to sneak up to the landing bays. Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Gaeta's turn. Apollo has opted to draw 1Y/1G for his optional draw. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
