Everyone passes on SPs. Let's see if that scout returns safely.
Die roll: 8. Pass!
The top card of the crisis deck is going out to the Admiral. Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post whether to put it on the top or the bottom of the deck.
BSG (Chief)
Aw, man, that die roll would have cleared those Raiders. Give me a good Crisis, Admiral!
BSG (Adama)
I'm going to
put it on the top
BSG
Awesome. Here you go, Chief, here's the crisis the Admiral hand-picked for you:
The Circle
President's Choice
President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (Chief)
OPTION 2 PLEASE. Or the part of Option 1 where I don't die, but given that you just won back the Presidency, I assume you're not giving it up so easily.
I can only assume that the Admiral liked this card for the jump icon and not that he secretly wants me dead. Or maybe he thinks Roslin will give him back the Presidency.

Don't be silly. I don't think anyone regards it as a secret.
BSG (Chief)
Are you saying that "DIE CHIEF DIE" poster on the bridge is about me?
BSG
Are you saying that "DIE CHIEF DIE" poster on the bridge is about me?
Nooo... It's in, um, German. Means "The Chief, The". Sideshow Adama would never wish you dead!
BSG (It was not to be Roslin)
Well, shoot. How pathetic is it that the only decision I get to make as President is whether or not to be President? But I'm having a hard enough time of card management as it is.
I
choose Option 1.
But because I am a benevolent leader, I do not kill off the Chief, but instead hand off my title to
Apollo,
making him CAPrez.
BSG
All hail CAGsident Adama! You will receive the Quorum deck shortly. All the power in the fleet, in the hands of one dynasty.
Naturally, the Cylons can't pass up the chance to shoot at the President. The raiders open fire, first upon Apollo's obedient lackey:
Raider 1: 2. Miss.
Raider 2: 1. Miss.
Stage fright can afflict the best of us. Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes the Chief's turn. Apollo has opted to draw 2 Green for his variable draw, one for each of his titles. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
