Well, that's just GREAT.
One thing I've become convinced is an indicator of Cylonity is abruptly taking actions with permanent consequences without warning or consultation. Like, say, launching a nuke or seizing the Admiralty. In other words, Hoshiny isn't the only one who thinks P-C has been mainlining English muffins. AGAIN.
Obviously we can't do it this turn, but do we think we could pass a Brig or Airlock check? Brig would be easier, but Airlock would actually let us use all this Treachery. Helo, Cottle, any thoughts?

Nononono! Don't do that. Pleease! Then he can't do his reveal action. It will be such a waste of opportunity. He promises to not hurt you. Really. Promise. Pinky swear and everything. Right PrAdmiral?

What do we need to pass for a Brig or Airlock check?

Everyone always says they're human!
Hey I never said I was human.
Brig is 7GP, Airlock is 12 YPT

By the way, note that Administration no longer involves a skill check. It just requires that the President holds a mutiny card (which he does). However, anyone who activates Administration will draw a mutiny card; since everyone still on the ship has a mutiny card, this means that activating Administration will send you to the Brig.

That seems kind of broken. Also, hilarious!

Hey wait wait it was fine when it was all jokey times but, seriously, let's not jump to the airlock, sheesh. I totally understand your reasoning, Baltar, and perhaps it was a mistake not to consult anyone, but it was a knee-jerk reaction to being right about Hoshi all along and wanting to keep from being burned again. I have no desire to be Admiral, but at least this way I know for sure the Admiral is human (and can't pull a Hoshi-like stunt). (Honestly, I was considering taking the Admiralty from him when I first started suspecting him, and I wish I'd done so. And also executed him. Twice.)

So you're saying that if someone on the crew suspects someone else of being a Cylon... They should execute them? Just to be clear.

If Airlock is what people want to do then I'll vote that way. It's extreme but it's the only way to be sure.
Plus Apollo seems to be arguing in favor of it.

Uh you guys this is a very bad idea. I'm not a Cylon. I'm not sure how to convince you otherwise.
