I discard my 3P card.

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

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.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Just in time for me to leave my board behind in TX.

No interrupts from Boomer.

Remember, you can leave me COs for the check itself too.

ayup.

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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

No interrupts from Baltar who is getting ready to leave for the airport.

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?

Oh shit I should have played an interrupt.

Baltar can help a little.

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.

I can help a little myself, so I think we've got the Admiral covered on this one. If not, we can rename the sick bay the "Adama and Adama Recovery Suite."

Of course, I am not unaware of the irony that we've needed yellow for every other crisis in the game, but the moment I spend a turn collecting yellow cards, we draw a GP crisis. Still, a six should be a cinch. On the other hand, it isn't advancing our jump track, which is unfortunate.
