I keep reading the turn summary wrong. Yeah, don't XO me unless you want the airlock repaired. Wait, no, not even then.
Sometimes a thing gets broke, can't be fixed.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

No takers? OK, for my bonus action I escort Civvie C home.

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

Civvie C scuttles back to wherever it is we keep them when they're not being actively threatened. Speaking of active threats, there's a lot of accusations and promises of reprisals in the fleet. The President needs to step in. Apollo's crisis card is:
Truth and Reconciliation
President's Choice
CAGsident Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice: truth or reconciliation?

Ooh yuck. If only we knew who would turn at sleeper. I think we'd end up spending more cards debrigging in the long run.

But I'd lose half my hand randomly and that would probably be disastrous with cylons about to jump in. Option 1
But I don't know who would be least harmful to brig.

I disagree with this decision. But if someone must be jailed I guess Roslin.

I think if you knew what cards I'd be risking you'd agree. In any case, I'll wait to hear from Laura and Dadmiral Adama before deciding.

Thrive to spite them

There's not a lot of options but I'm fine with Apollo's decision.

I think it could have gone either way, but trust that Apollo is correct regarding his hand. Of course, I'd prefer not to be brigged. But I understand that someone we'd rather not is going to be. It's an untimely crisis.

OK, well, let's think through this rationally and see if there's someone who it makes more sense to brig than the others.
If I brig Cally, she can immediately try to get out on her turn, and can use the Quick Fix on the skill check to get her out, but we won't be able to do anything else with her turn, which isn't great but leaves us in not too bad shape. If we fail to get her out, of course, no crisis for her turn, but no help from her shooting cylons in the near future, either
If I brig Roslin, leaving her in the brig is less of a problem as far as doing stuff since her weakness makes activating locations so costly anyway. Although some Communications action would probably be useful about now. She would still be able to XO or Scout or whatever card-based action, right? But she wouldn't get crises cards, so we wouldn't have the benefit of her Religious Visions. The timing on using her turn to get her out of the brig might be fine or might be problematic.
If I brig Dad, I get all the titles, which is just weird. His turn is right before the cylon, so using it to debrig him may make us more vulnerable than we would otherwise be.
Hm.
Anyone who could help a lot with a debrigging skill check that would be hamstrung if you were the one in the brig (and only able to play one card)? [Is that okay to ask per secrecy rules?]
