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

When it comes to skill checks the players need to play their cards in order (which means right now we're waiting on Boomer). You can email me conditional orders if your turn's not up yet.

I now have Apollo's orders: Play 1 Card.
With that, the Skill Check is completed, with a total of three cards played. Results:
Red 2
Red 4
Blue 1
Total: -7. Fail: -1 Morale; Apollo chooses either President Roslin or Admiral Adama and looks at their Loyalty Card.
Apollo, please indicate your choice.
