It's not an ouster, Madame President, if we vote against you; it's an election. Or rather, a vote of no-confidence. Did you outlaw the teaching of basic colony civics during your tenure as Secretary of Education?

And while we fully appreciate your position on the extra-judicial use airlocks to deal with your critics (followed by hors d'oeuvres on the Lido deck, apparently), your responses of late have not exactly inspired my confidence. Frankly, I would like to see the Admiral assume full command of the fleet until the current crisis is over.

I really have no clue what to say. As a soldier of the colonies, my job is to obey orders and defend. Clearly there is a cylon here. But blind accusations seem to defeat our legal system. But, I want to survive this attack!! The admiral is my leader until he proves incompetant. I think it's best the rank & file stay out of politics.

What are your orders, sir?

You know, Dr. Baltar, it occurs to me that you could solve this issue of whether Roslin is a toaster or not. Why don't you use your cylon detector (ability) and tell us whether she's fighting for the other team or just strung out on kamala juice?

If you can be bothered to stop making sweet, sweet love to that lab table, that is. Boy, I wish I hadn't walked in on that.

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

sorry guys, I tried to log in from the airport but I'm almost out of minutes. I'll have to chime in when I get home.

p.s. I am not a Cylon!

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

While the Admiral decides upon his action, I would like to inform you that Boomer has used her Recon ability and opted to send the Crisis Card to the bottom of the deck.

Carry on.

I don't need to use my cylon detector ability. I know Roslin is the cylon. Why don't we lock her up in the brig right now and I'll use my cylon detector on the next person we're pretty sure is a cylon.

I'm wondering if Baltar needs to be tested more than Mdm President.

Surely you don't want to waste our only test on someone I assure you is fully human.

Now I know he does. Baltar is the cylon. Admiral, you better nuke that Basestar this turn, and we'll deal with Baltar as soon as it's gone. If you still think I'm a cylon after we've cut Baltar open to see what makes him tick, I'll step down peacefully.

Well if it comes down to me or that obviously mentally malfunctioning robot Roslin going in the brig certainly I will run the tests on her but you'll be sorry you wasted it when it comes back positive.
