Starbuck plays a Strategic Planning 3. From her hospital bed she contributes her own gift of oratory ("FRAAAAAAK YOOOOOUUUUUU").
Die roll: 7 + 2 = 9. Pass!
Morale increases by 1. Though Starbuck's approach to demanding the fleet's attention might be deemed a touch excessive. Starbuck's crisis card is:
Bomb Threat
Current Player's Choice
Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your choice.
Not my crisis card, or I'd be out of sickbay.
BSG
Not my crisis card, or I'd be out of sickbay.
Not your crisis card, but it wouldn't have got you out of Sickbay.
not the card, but if it was my card, it would be my turn, therefore, I would be out of sickbay.
BSG (Roslin)
I knew my inspirational
glare
would be more effective this time!
I don't think we have a chance at that check, so I'd go for the die roll.
BSG (Adama)
I go for
Option 2
and play
SP-3
BSG
Adama dares the bombers to do their worst. Were they bluffing?
Die roll: 4 + 2 = 6.
Nerves of steel, that's what the Admiralty demands. The bomb threat proves to be a hoax.
Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Adama's turn. Starbuck starts her turn and draws only one card; she has opted to draw Green. She also draws a trauma token, but she has less say in that. Starbuck, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (Adama)
Augh I forgot you draw a trauma token if you start your turn in sickbay. Not that that would have changed my decision but ugh it sucks.
BSG (Starbuck)
Augh I forgot you draw a trauma token if you start your turn in sickbay. Not that that would have changed my decision but ugh it sucks.
Hence my plea. Alas. It is what it is.
Let's see. What to do, what to do. Nothing to shoot at. Nothing to fix. It's a quiet day in space.
MOVE:
I move to the Hangar Deck, where I encounter Kat. Let's hope she kicked the habit, and is in a happy mode. I could use the extra cards.
ACTION:
Stretch my legs, and walk around my Viper. Caressing her under carriage. Admiring her big guns. Dreaming of... battle. Yeah. Battle.
