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

Administrative note: Destiny's play into the check reduced it to six cards. I've replenished and reshuffled it.

The Olympic Carrier: 11 YGR(B)

Destiny: 2 cards
Starbuck: 1 card
Baltar: 2 cards
Chief: 1 card
Cally: 2 cards

Consolidate Power 1
Preventative Policy 5

Well, I guess it was time for us to overplay the shit out of a check. Oops. I was thinking of abstaining, too!

Take us somewhere good, Admiral. We have fuel to burn!

Fuel falls by 1, and you are now down to two raptors. that concludes Gaeta's turn. Starbuck has opted to draw Green for her variable draw. Starbuck, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

I'm thinking an XO to the Chief to get some of my Viper squadron repaired. I'm tired of doing all the work out there by myself! Anyone have any objections?
