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

Minor administrative note: all players have now either used their character's once per game ability, or surrendered it without use (in Apollo's case).

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

BSG

Should I try to get out of the brig myself, or do we need to get Boomer out so she can pilot?

move out and draw fire

BSG

Catching up with administratrivia: I played a Green 1 to XO Boomer, and then I discarded three Purple 1 cards.

We need to brig the Pradmiral. I can't brig anyone, so me getting out of the brig is pointless. Either Baltar or Boomer can, and either of you guys can use the locations on Galactica. Using Galactica's weapons, comms, and command will be more efficient than putting Boomer in a viper, and we need someone ready to FTL us when we spool up.

But we really do need the Pradmiral brigged before then, so she doesn't choose our destination.

OK, I'm activating the brig to get myself out of here.

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

I guess we can't brig the Toaster-Bitch-Queen-From-Hell from within the brig, huh?

Huh? Why can't you brig anyone?

My fake-Pop is too kindhearted to brig anyone (oocly: it's on his character card)

ESPECIALLY his junky-toaster-junkie pal.

I have changed my mind. Since Boomer doesn't draw green cards she can't XO me. I think I do my best work behind bars anyway.

I play a Green 1, Executive Order on Boomer. Get out of this brig and get those toasters. You're still the admiral in my eyes!

BSG

um, does that mean I'm free of the brig? No, don't we have to do a skill check? I'm so lost without my Game Meister! And the baby killed him dead with the Cute rays all weekend long. Doooooomed!

Yes you need to pass the check for which I can help a little.

I think I can help a little too. I'm scared what the Toaster Queen will do to block our efforts. May the gods bless our Destiny Cards with high value helpful cards.
