Mr President, if you would like to make an inspirational speech I could help you plan it.
That is very generous of you, Admiral. I may need your help. I'm... I'm... Well... I'm not sure what I'm feeling. That nebula thing has really... really made me feel..... woozy.....

Sorry. Did I pass out there? My head REALLY hurts. It's SCREAMING. Something strange. Dunno what it is.

WOULD YOU PLEASE TURN OFF THAT FRAKKIN' RADIO. Dear gods, I have a migraine.

Wait. I know that song. How do I know that song? It's from... from another planet.

"There must be some kind of way out of here,"
Said the joker to the thief,
"There's too much confusion,
I can't get no relief.
Businessman they drink my wine,
Plowman dig my earth
None will level on the line, nobody offered his word, hey"

"No reason to get excited,"
The thief, he kindly spoke
"There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late"

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too


Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl
buisness man there, drink my wine,
Come and take my herb.

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

BSG

Well, I'm inspired.

So much confusion. Who let the dogs out? Must put them back in their places! Too much unrest.

I MOVE: nowhere. I stay right where I am at.

For my ACTION: I play Quorum card Establish Dogsville. Gain 1 Pop, lose 1 Morale.

Dogsville! Land of opportunity, hope of the new humanity. Yeah, you're all screwed. Morale falls by 1 to 0! Population goes up by 1, because really, what else are you going to do?

Technically, we don't check resources until turn end, which means that if you could raise Morale on Baltar's crisis card, you could still have a chance. Alas, his crisis card is:

Sabotage Investigated
Skill Check (9 PB)

This is a brutal crisis card. Even if you pass you lose 1 Food. Certainly it does nothing to lift the fleet's spirits. Morale stays at 0. President Baltar has doomed you all!

CYLONS WIN!

Can I reveal that I was a cylon now? Or do I have to keep that secret still?

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

Wow, that got really exciting and interesting towards the end! Actually it was pretty exciting and interesting earlier, but the trauma business is all mysterious and new. Fascinating.
