I don't need a test to tell me Gaius Baltar is a cylon. I just need a chainsaw.

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

BSG

Well I'm going to bed. Admiral I respect your decision.

Where's Saul when I need him? Alas, I cannot brig anyone, as for some reason, I'm "emotionally attached" even to Dr. Baltar.

Well, Laura, it would appear that you and I are in agreement about at least one thing, given Dr. Baltar's refusal to test himself. I understand that coming over to Galactica and activating a location will take a toll on you, but I know you to be resilient as well as a determined protector of the fleet.

If I nuke the basestar rather than holding elections this turn, will you use your turn to send Baltar to the brig?

Alrighty then. I move to Communications and launch our last remaining nuke at the basestar.

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

Dammit, I just bought it! It still has that new basestar smell! This is exactly what happened when I got that Daewoo back in '98.

Ok, the outcome of this attack is determined by a die roll, which means the possibility of Strategic Planning interrupts. I will need everyone (except Roslin, who's drawn no Purple cards) to post or email whether or not they wish to play one (as usual, we'll wait 12 hours). After that, we'll roll the die and see what happens. (1 in 8 chance, my basestar will survive. More than I can say for my Daewoo.)

I don't interrupt. Gods know it took me long enough to make up my mind in the first place.

I strongly encourage you to allow me to test Roslin. If I'm wrong I'll brig myself.

I will play no interrupts.

Aw, crap. The second Cylon just revealed in my online game. We've travelled 4 distance and have 3 Fuel left, both Cylons are free, one human is brigged, and the President-Admiral is a Cylon.

We are so royally screwed.
