Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

No dragons rising up from the earth, no one has turned into trolls or elves and no one rising up in a magic-powered revolution.

Dang it, FASA, how could you lie to me?

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

The full play:

Consult the Prisoner: 13 YPB

Destiny: 2 cards
Roslin: 1 card
Adama: 0 cards
Chief: 1 card
Apollo: 1 card
Cally: 4 cards

Cards played:

Preventative Policy 3
Launch Scout 2
Repair 1
Repair 1
Scientific Research 3
At Any Cost 3
Declare Emergency 4
Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Run Interference 3

Cally Quick Fixes the DE-4, but that still gives us:

Tally: 10 - 7 = 3. Fail. Cally lands in the Brig, and everyone (except the Chief) dixcards one card. Apollo discards randomly due to his weakness. Discards are:

Cally: Human Weakness 3
Roslin: Consolidate Power 2
Adama: Human Weakness 3
Apollo: Maximum Firepower 5

I need to take off now, so I'll finish the rest of the turn later today.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Hmm.

The Chief's Sabotage damages his home away from home, the Hangar Deck. Next, the basestar activation advances the pursuit track to T minus 1; the CAGmiral, Adama, places two more civvies. He places them in Sectors 2 and 3. The activation also places a basestar on the CFB; however, both basestars are already on the CFB. Instead, the basestar in Sector 1 jumps in, along with the rest of the Sector's contents.

Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Cally's turn. Roslin's crds are going out. Ms Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Aw, what's the point of damaging the Hangar Deck when the only person who uses it is in the Brig? I need to hire a better saboteur.

This was a particularly disastrous Crisis. Good job, Cally!

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

BSG (Cally)

Damn! Sorry about that. I thought it was worth the risk but destiny (and our new cylon) screwed us.
