But we neeed a pilot. I require more discussion before I can decide.

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

BSG (Cally)

We need a pilot like Galactica needs two holes in the head, I'm guessing.

I don't know what the possible repercussions are, but they are probably bad. I mean, repercussions usually are.

I think we're really screwed either way. SUPER.

I'm going to shut up now. Because it appears I have failed at reading comprehension tonight. Ugg. Sorry.

Much as it pains me, I'll go with Option 2

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

It pains Adama, but not as much as it pains Destiny. First, the three revealed Cylons (Baltar, Leoben and Apollo) each receive two Treachery cards. Next, the destiny deck discards its entire contents:

Consolidate Power 2
Consolidate Power 2
Investigative Committee 4
Executive Order 1
Executive Order 2
Launch Scout 1
Launch Scout 2
Strategic Planning 4
Full Throttle 1
Evasive Manoeuvre 2
Scientific Research 4
Broadcast Location 1
Broadcast Location 1
God's Plan 2
Human Weakness 3
Sabotage 3

It is rebuilt with six Treachery cards. (The complex Destiny house rules with which we're playing are on hold until this deck is exhausted. Once that happens, Destiny will be rebuilt with three cards from each deck.) Administrative note: building the destiny deck exhausted the Treachery deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

That concludes Baltar's turn of Svengali-like mayhem. Cally's cards are going out. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Well, I really wanted to XO Adama to escort those civvies off the board, but I have no XO, so either I go do it myself or...I shoot at the basestar? We have a few Raider activations until the civvies are threatened, but we also have a Crisis and two Cylon turns.

BSG (Adama)

If you had a repair card I'd say go repair the Hangar Deck. If not I guess shooting at the basestar works. We might get lucky.
