I discard a card randomly in order to go to Caprica One -- let me know which it is, High Lord God administrator.
You do not in fact discard randomly. The FAQ has clarified that Apollo's Headstrong ability applies only when he is forced to discard, say through a Crisis Card, and not when he chooses an action (moving between vessels) which necessitates a discard. It seems a fine distinction to me, but since there's a clear statement of the maker's intent, we'll run with it.
First, I'm sending you your new Yellow card. Then, you may post your discard.
Edit: The Captain's card draw has exhausted the Politics deck, so I'll reshuffle it before he works the Press Room.

Ok, Apollo works the Press Room to draw two Politics cards, which I've sent to him. His Crisis Card is:
Security Breach
Skill Check 6 GP
We will pause for interrupts (Investigative Committee and Scientific Research). Then play into the check will begin with Boomer.
BSG
Just in time for me to leave my board behind in TX.
No interrupts from Boomer.
Just in time for me to leave my board behind in TX.
Remember, you can leave me COs for the check itself too.
ayup.
BSG
OK gang, So it's 6, which seems rather low. I have 3 cards. I can help a fair amount, but I ask, should I burn a card? I recall talk that one would like 10ish cards to make it a round. Granted its my turn next. I ask your advice.
BSG
No interrupts from Baltar who is getting ready to leave for the airport.
BSG
I can help, although I only have 4 cards. If Madame President will call another investigative committee, we can more efficiently spend our cards. Laura?
BSG
Oh shit I should have played an interrupt.
Baltar can help a little.
BSG
Unfortunately, Bill, the last two investigative committees have spent my capital with the Quorum. As neither investigation managed to turn up any corruption or cylon infiltration, the Quorum has decided they are too busy tending to their own to spare any time for a third investigation that, they feel, will be as unproductive as the the last two.
However, I can help on this check.
