Good afternoon, Admiral. Here are the latest figures on the loss of ships in our last jump, as well as the status of remaining fleet vessels. I have been down to the brig, and while I believe Boomer made a tactical mistake, I do not believe she is a cylon. I think you understand where my suspicions in that regard lie. I think we should release Boomer as soon as an official inquiry can be conducted, for propriety's sake. Also, security is reporting a lot of grumbling among the remaining civilians, so it is probably safer that Sharon spend this turn in the brig. Emotions are high right now.

As for our current tactical situation, I am not concerned at this time with either the cylon mothership, its raiders, or even that crappy virus they downloaded into our computer system an eternity ago and which has done nothing but bother Gaida with messages about his penis size and ask him for his bank account number to help move money out of some place called "Nigeria."

I do believe, however, that we have a good officer in the brig while a skin job continues to run around free. Now may be the only chance we get to deal with this situation. I strongly encourage you to do what you know has to be done.

I admit, I am curious about buying BSG now too.

Sir, with all due respect, don't hold down the intercom button!

BULLSHIT! I'd be safer in a VIPER, starting to move around this ship, getting ready to burn some toasters outta the sky!

I strongly encourage you to do what you know has to be done.

Of course, if that means you can't start the procedure of hunting down the skin job, or the landing party, well, then, pass the bread and water (and can we PLEASE get Baltar his own cell. Hello! CREEPY!)

Cripes, Sharon, would you can it!? You're breaking the 4th wall, you lunatic! Yes, we know the entire audience is watching me talking with the Admiral, but we must maintain the fiction that is only him and me.

You're already in trouble for jumping the ship; don't jump the shark while you're at it...

I'm sorry, Lee, but I'm far too emotionally attached to Laura Roslin to initiate brigging her.

I do concur with your assessment that Lt. Valerii should remain in the brig a bit longer, if only because those vipers are a long way from the civilian fleet right now.

The centurion that's been standing in the hall near the launch bay is apparently busy trying to figure out how to get rid of Mr. Clippy ("Hi! It looks like you are trying to board a battlestar! Would you like some help with that?"), so he's not an immediate threat either.

Or, OOC...I need to look at my action cards to see what I can do.

Congrats Random McNasty, you've just been COMMa'd! (is this your first?)

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

It's worse than that. I just double-checked the records, that one's running Windows Vista.

My the time alone in the brig has allowed me to see the flaw in my cylon detector. If you all let me out of here I am sure I can power it up and start testing people. Please let me out of here. I think this pilot has lost her bearings.
