How many cards can we play while we're in sickbay?
There are no location-specific limits on what you can play frm Sickbay. (You of course are limited to playing 0 or 2+ cards, due to your weakness.) However, if you are in Sickbay at the start of your turn, then you may draw only one card instead of the usual five.
BSG (Cally)
oh wait! I have an interrupt... but it's reckless. Is everyone OK with a reckless interrupt at this stage of the game? Is it OK for me to ask this?
BSG
Yeah go for it.
BSG (Apollo)
Throw caution to the wind!

It is immediately relevant, so it's ok to ask. It would in fact be ok to state which interrupt you have.
If I'm reading Cally's COs correctly, she plays a Jury Rigged 2. The check DC is now 8. Everyone else passes on interrupts; the check begins!
An Offer of Peace:

Cally is up next. (Note: I assume the JR-2 doesn't change anyone's COs. If it does, let me know.)
BSG (Roslin)
Nope, my CO's stand.
BSG Cally
sorry, I play 0 cards
BSG (Chief)
I really, really, really hope Destiny plays By Your Command.

Tally: 16 - 2 = 14. Pass! Cylon treachery is forestalled. Well, almost forestalled, as the basestars each launch another three raiders. There are now eighteen raiders on the board.
That concludes Adama's turn. Chiefbot has opted to draw 1 Red and 1 Treachery for his draw. Cards are going out now.
