Right then, details. Leoben has returned two cards to Destiny. He then ceases infiltrating and returns to the Resurrection Ship. As he was in the Brig at the time, he must discard down to 3 cards. His discards are:
Consolidate Power 1
Support the People 2
Trust Instincts 0
Dradis Contact 0
Violent Outbursts 4
Exploit Weakness 5
He also discards his mutiny card, which is:
Peaceful Resistance
(Naturally, he does not draw a mutiny card for discarding the DC-0, as he is no longer counted as a human player and cannot hold mutiny cards.)

He could be using it as a free way to get out of the Brig to save us cards.
That's how I read into it. Crap. Now I'm agreeing with Apollo. Maybe he is human.
BSG(Doctor Lightfingers)
Well, the One God may have made me perfect, but he didn't bless me with executive authority. So, given that those resources are dipping towards the red, I will have my lovely assistants persuade Helo to sacrifice for the future.
In other words,
Stay Right Here
and
Steal Helo's miracle token.
BSG
The Hamburglar Cultar strikes again! He now holds three miracle tokens. Who will stand against his crime spree? I think we can find someone. Baltar's crisis card is:
The Guardians Of the Galaxy
Cylon Attack
That concludes Baltarnate's turn. Hoshi's cards are going out. Admiral Hoshi, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Holy schnikes! That's a lot of crap in the air.
OK. We've known this day was coming. We've been training for this. We can do this.

Hoshi has read up on
The Idiot's Guide to Battlestars
and believes he has the gist of it. Step 1: panic! (I may be editorialising a little.) Instead of moving, Hoshi declares a
Critical Situation 5.
He uses the action to
launch a nuke at the basestar in Sector 1!
The die roll may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.

Now I'm agreeing with Apollo. Maybe he is human.
nope, definitely not human. Just maybe not planning to destroy you all. Maybe.
BSG (Apollo)
Pass. Remember we don't want to destroy that basestar, only damage it.
