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

Being in the Brig, I have no Move. My Action is to play my Quorum card...

***Tigh***

Hey, Zarek! Wipe that sour look off yer face! Yer getting released! Tol' yer I hadda paperwork unna' way. Heh heh. Hah!

Zarek is released from Brig and sent to a location on Galactica of my choosing. I send him to the Research Lab.

The next two players are Cylons and we are beginning to even the odds, y'hear? Lookin' forward to seeing you soon, Tyrol.

BSG

Zarek has received a Presidential Pardon. All is forgiven! You have been moved to the Research Lab.

Since President Tigh is still in the Brig, he doesn't draw a Crisis card and this concludes his turn. Captain Apollo, please let me know which cards you would like to draw for your turn.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

BSG

I'll draw 2 yellow this time around.

Move: None. Action: I attempt to release myself for good behavior.

Apollo has activated the Brig. We will pause for Investigative Committee and Scientific Research interrupts. In addition, Mr Zarek, you have the option of either raising or lowering the difficulty of this check by 2. Do you wish to do so?

BOYS! KEEP HIM THERE! Yes, I know he's unhappy with Tigh's use of Radioactive (and Whimpery) Boy as a bludgeon. Hold him still.

BSG

Apollo plays a Yellow-5 to form an Investigative Committee. I have passes on Scientific Research from everyone. All cards will be played open into this check. Mr Zarek's Friends in Low Places mean this is a 9 YP check. Let's begin.

Destiny: R1 R2
Chief: no cards in hand
Zarek:
Helo:
Starbuck:
Tigh:
Apollo:

Running Tally: -3. Oh dear. Apollo, looks like some of the pilots from all those vipers you sent into harm's way are holding a grudge.

Mr Zarek, it's your turn. Since there's an IC, you can post your card play directly in the thread.
