Okay, another crisis check another failure, which is getting kind of repetitious, and a bit dangerous as well. With only two bad cards, it COULD have just been a bad destiny draw, but I doubt it. We are being sabotaged.
Madam President, are you going to take action or not? It is clear to everyone in this fleet that Dr. Baltar is a threat to the survival of the human species. From his air sex antics to that single red eye that endlessly moves to and fro in the middle of his head, he simply raises too many unanswered questions. Given our current condition, threatened by raiders and centurions, we cannot afford a fifth-columnist.
Please. Immediately move to place him under arrest before we face another crisis. We cannot afford to let him have another turn free where he will be able to do Gods know what damage to the human species.

If you think I'm a cylon you're making a terrible mistake.

Dr. Baltar, as soon as this crisis is over and we have a moment's reflection, I will be happy to act as your counsel in front of the kangaroo court that my father and the President will whip up and which will find almost certainly find you guilty of a variety of sins having to do with your hair hygiene and continually wild-eyed stare of panic.
Heck, if we can find a dissolute Bono look-alike with a dodgy accent to be the real barrister, we might even win you a reprieve. But if I were you, I would spend my time practicing holding my breath in the vacuum of space.
Until then, however, I think it is best for your own safety that you be kept in a secure area. At the very least, if you are not involved when another crisis is sabotaged, we will then be able to examine President Judgejuryexecutioner's bona fides in a little more depth, and you may be off the hook.
BSG
You have no more proof that I'm a cylon than you have for Roslin. If you're going to lock one of us up you better lock up both of us.

If wishes were fishes, Dr. Baltar, if wishes were fishes...

Two wrongs do not make a right. Blind accusations are ripping this fleet apart. I don't know *what* to think. Clearly there is a traitor amongst us. We must defend. But we must not loose our humanity.

I fly to the Admiral's quarters and attempt to throw Baltar in the brig. Are my

discards random?

They are not. Your terminal illness has left your body weakened, but your mind is still sharp. Much like President Bartlet in the episode when he takes both the Vicodin and the Percoset.
Which cards would you like to discard?
Note that attempting to brig someone involves a Skill Check (7 GP). We will therefore pause for interrupts (Investigative Committee or Scientific Research). Everyone except Adama, please advise whether you play an interrupt or pass.
