What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG (Gaeta)

Yeah, I can! Better get out of here now in case Cally doesn't pull an XO.

Okay! I will Move to CIC, Play R-1 to repair it, and for a bonus, Play XO-1 on Felix.

An Executive Order? Chief, you can't tell me what to do!

Because for my first action, I use my OPG and seize the Admiralty.

As Admiral Felix Gaeta, I declare a State of Emergency, as it turns out that algae was poisoned.

To kick off this emergency, I reveal as a Cylon and damage Galactica. I encourage my silent partner to join me on the Resurrection Ship for shenanigans and the destruction of all humanity.

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

BSG

Ok! The State of Emergency reduces Food by 1. Everyone may now either move or take an action, starting with Gaeta. And his action is to reveal as a Cylon! His reveal power allows him to take five random damage tokens and pick two of them to resolve. Mr Gaeta, you may take any possible combination of Galactica and Pegasus tokens (i.e. anywhere from 5 Galactica to 1 Galactica/4 Pegasus). What mix would you like?

Meanwhile, everyone else, you can send me COs for your State of Emergency orders. Starbuck will be next to act, and Helo will be last. A reminder that you may either move or take an action.

Oh my God, not again.

ETA: P-C you are now officially banned from complaining when we talk about how you're inevitably going to be a Cylon.

I'm really hoping Starbuck reveals now too. It will be glorious.

P-C has now been a Cylon 6 times out of 12 games, which is a pretty impressive record. It's only bettered by ND, who has also been a Cylon 6 times, but out of only 10 games (not including this one, as Starbuck's loyalty is still unproven in either direction). Well, technically I have a 50% strike rate too, but that's only over two games. And Random McNasty has a 100% rate, over one game. But aside from this short runs, it's P-C and ND.

Gaeta has made his choice. The damage tokens to be resolved are:

Lose 1 Food
Weapons Control

Baltar is sent to Sickbay! Next, Gaeta moves to the Resurrection Ship. The Admiralty passes back to Helo. That was a bit anticlimactic. Gaeta has to discard two cards. He tosses:

Investigative Committee 3
Trust Instincts 0

He then passes off his unrevealed loyalty card. He gives it to Chief. Finally, he picks up a super crisis card. That concludes Gaeta's SoE action. Starbuck is next. Reminder: everyone else, you can send me COs.
