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

BT, how far do we have to travel for team humans to win?

You need to reach 8 Distance (which also triggers the Crossroads phase) and then make one more jump. You're at 6 Distance now, so there's a good chance next jump will land you at the Ionian Nebula (you all might like to check your trauma).

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Cally)

Still hanging on by the skin of our teeth. Now would be a good time for a nuke.

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

Yes! Sector 1, please. Might get lucky, and take out some raiders too.

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

BSG (Roslon)

Or you could miss and destroy Galactica! That's an option, right? I mean, who put Cottle in charge of the nukes, seriously.

I think it was you.

Come to think of it, you're right. That was a brilliant idea.

Doc is doing a better job than you. But that's not saying much.

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

BSG (Doc)

The Admiral controls the nukes, by the way. I think that means you put me in charge, Starbuck.

Anyway.

Lacking the means to get Cally out of Sickbay, I will bow the evident will of the people. First, I discard CP-1 to Move to Communications. Then I pause and ask my constituency if they think I should strategically plan how to launch a nuke or just lob one out there and hope for the best.

Well, people?

Aim for the big one with all the pointy things. The one with the swarm of little ones around it. And roll the die well!

But if the die rolls too well it's bad for Civvie A. Which is why I'm asking whether I should use a Plan. Strategically. Which I could. See?
