Cottle is the only one who couldn't possibly have spiked that first check, so if we get a Loyalty check, I'd rather we try to learn something new.
I completely agree with this. This is a valuable opportunity to try and exclude someone from suspicion.
Of course, I've already voiced suspicions about Hoshi, so I would take any answer as suspect anyway.
I hear ya on it. Obviously I disagree with your suspicions. But then again, who doesn't disagree when accused of being a Cylon.
The Sickbay issue does make it tricky.
Only a little bit. Since the skies are clear, it's not huge. Unless you are running low on cards. Then, yeah, it's a bit of an issue.
Apollo, aside from me, is there anyone else you are suspicious of?
Based on card count (hey, it's as good a way of doing as any), I would say between Helo and Apollo. Doc is out just by process of elimination with spiked checks. I can't check myself (well, I could, but it wouldn't solve anything).
BSG (Apollo)
Apollo, aside from me, is there anyone else you are suspicious of?
You and Baltar, although Baltar
has
been pretty helpful lately, so...mostly you then. I feel like I haven't gotten enough from Helo to really exclude him. So I would also agree with either Helo or me. I'm clean and I have nothing to hide, so if you check me and accuse me, I'll know you're metal, which means that you have to say I'm human, in which case no one learns anything.
BSG (Leoben)
If you check Helo or Apollo they also have a few turns to get XO'd out of sickbay.

OK, then I pick
Option 1
, and pick
Helo
to investigate.
BSG
Helo heads to Sickbay for some enhanced interrogation techniques! His loyalty card is going out to the Admiral.
One last detail: Cottle's treachery draw pushed him up to 11 cards again. He discards a
Personal Vices 3.
That concludes Leoben's turn. Baltar's cards are going out. Baltarnate, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Hmmmm.
Given that there are any number of things that can happen between now and the next two jump icons, does anyone have a better suggestion then getting Helo out of the medbay and back in the sky?
Also, Admiral? What was the upshot of your experiment?
BSG (Adm. Louis Hoshi)

If you have an XO, I think that's the best idea. Nothing to fix. Nothing to shoot at. About the only other thing would be jump early before crap arrives. But, I think it would be better to wait on that.
As to your other question. I think secrecy rules do not allow me to say what the card said. I will say, it didn't help me solve the big question of who spiked that first round.
BSG (Apollo)
As to your other question. I think secrecy rules do not allow me to say what the card said.
You can say whether Helo is or is not a Cylon. We don't have to believe you. You can't mention anything specific about what was on the card, like a Personal Goal or a Reveal power or anything.
I will say, it didn't help me solve the big question of who spiked that first round.
That leaves Baltar! If it's not you. Baltar, whom we shouldn't brig.
Assuming we don't have two Cylons, however, I think that means Helo's clean, because unless Hoshi is ALSO a Cylon, there would be no reason for him to lie about Helo's being human.
Man, I should have Airlocked one of you. I would have had a 50/50 chance.

Apollo is correct. You can say whether or not Helo is a Cylon (and you can tell the truth or lie). You can't disclose anything further, like Personal Goals or reveal powers.
