Yup, Omnis, but what's really tricky here is that Starbuck doesn't have access to Yellow cards and I don't think any card played would have gotten her any either.
The only two people with access to Yellow - who played cards - are Apollo and Tyrol.
Here's the really troubling thing, the check was spiked by 5 cards - 4 Yellow and 1 Blue, so if you deduct 2 for Destiny that's still 3 cards. 3 cards is 1 more than either Apollo or Tyroll played and the only person that played that many doesn't have access to Yellow.
So unless Starbuck somehow had a huge stockpile of Yellow cards hidden under the table, we are looking at 2 cylons, not 1. Or clumsiness.
BT, there's usually only 1 cylon for the start of a game, right?
BSG
Zarek continues to nap, interrupting nothing.
BSG
Nope. I don't draw yellow, but I do draw a lot of purple.
And my understanding is that we could have both cylons already. Which means they probably both just accidentally outed each other.
BSG
Wait, I have it! Billytea is the Cylon.
Galactica fires on BT!

Yes, this is an interesting occurance, isn't it?
Oops. Sorry. My notes had starbuck as being able to pick yellow or blue, but it's green or blue. I humbly apologise.
BSG
Pradmiral, we need to get Zarek out of the Brig. We also need to kill the 14 enemy birds swarming us!
As for the cards, I think destiny tossed for both sides that time.
BSG
Omnis, I totally agree that Zarek needs to be released. Apollo has already stated his action and Tyrol really needs to go fix vipers. I can't see Zarek getting out before it's his actual turn which is a pity as it's becoming clear we will need him to be packing a full hand of cards very soon.
We have some problems ahead.

Usually, but there can be no Cylons, or two.
BSG
That's long enough for interrupts, everyone passes. Apollo fires at the basestar.
Die roll:
3. Miss. About time you guys missed something.
On to the Crisis Card, which is:
Bomb Threat
Current Player's Choice
Captain Apollo, when you're ready please post your choice.
BSG
Apollo fires at the basestar.
Psst, BT, you meant
heavy raider.
Unless another Basestar just happens to have snuck in when no one was looking. I
knew
you were a Cylon.
The raiders get activation this turn. We are about to lose a lot of colonial ships.
