So we for sure have one cylon still hiding, right? Two is the minimum?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

That is my understanding. One is revealed. The other, still hiding. And I am quite worried, with this little participation, that the Presidency may get turned over to the unrevealed Cylon. May the gods guide my decision, should we fail. May the gods bless us with at least a partial pass! The loss in population could come back to haunt us (and I'm not talking zombie's people).

Because we're using Exodus, there's still one card left undealt in the loyalty deck. It is possible that the remaining card is the other Cylon loyalty card.

The check is done:

Prisoner Revolt: 11 YGP(B)

Destiny: 2 cards
Cally: 2 cards
Helo: 0 cards
Gaeta: 0 cards
Starbuck: 0 cards
Baltar: 3 cards
Chief: 3 cards

Cards played:

Consolidate Power 1
Investigative Committee 4
Executive Order 1
Declare Emergency 4
Strategic Planning 5
Establish Network 0
Repair 1
Repair 1
Repair 1
Repair 2

The EN-0 doubles the value of all Blue, which counts positive in this check. Tally: 25 - 0 = 25. Pass! Through the magic of CGI, the producers make it look like something is happening in this episode, even though they're actually showing The Woman King.

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

Administrative note: Cally's draw exhausted the Tactics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

Holy shit!! First, I would like to thank the Gods to bless us with a positive Destiny card draw. Second, I would like to thank our support crew. If ANYONE dares call them Knuckle Draggers in my presence, will get a thourough tongue lashing from me. Chief and Cally really stepped up, and helped this check pass! You two are the hero's this turn! You two REALLY helped save lives today. Sure, typically you are fixing up the ships, keeping our skies and pilots safe, which saves lives EVERY day. But today. Today, you saved population. And I just want to take this moment to commend your actions.

Everyone! Three cheers to our support crew!

Well that was exciting! I am going to be less exciting and not move and play Consolidated Power to draw 2 cards.
