Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

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

Everyone passes on interrupts. Tigh fires at the heavy raider.

Die roll: 1. Miss. Tigh, announcing that he "got the one on the left", does a victory shimmy. Helo leaves COs: use his reroll.

Die roll II: 8. Tigh gets the one on the right too! Heavy raider destroyed.

Helo, when you're ready please post your choice.

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

BSG

bt, it's my choice, but I can confer with the humans, right?

What do you think humans? With our population so low, I'm thinking option 2. As much as I like to horde cards, and not like the random giving up aspect, I really don't want to risk the population.

That's correct. Confer away.

I'm loathe to ask a teammate to make such a sacrifice, but i'd rather not leave it to chance.

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

Ooh! Ooh! I can help with the skill check! Go skill check. Choose skill check!

Or maybe you should discard a bunch of cards. I promise I won't try to escape the Brig next turn, so it's not like you will need them. When have I lied to you?

BSG

Yeah, as much as I hate to ask someone human to lose 4 cards, it's the only real option. The die roll is just too much risk.

I am only up at this horrifying time because I have to drive Jilli to a radio interview. Ah, the high life with appropriate levels of sleep dep.

Electromagnetic candy! - Stark

BSG

I'm loathe to suggest it, but - option 2 is best, IMO.

BSG

If I still had the once per turn re-roll ability, I might have gone with the die, but that was used by Drunken Sailor to shoot down the heavy raider.

I choose Option 2. Please tell me what my cards are after the random pick-pocketing to save humanity.

Admiral Starbuck, (grimace) since you'll be deciding our destination when we jump, I hope you get a Tylium Planet or a Cylon Refinery. If not, we are done.

Damn, I wish there'd been time for another scouting mission.

Good to know what to look for. Good job getting out of the brig, Saul. Took you long enough.
