That fate of humanity hangs in the balance!

Chief Tyrol has chosen the following Crisis Card:
Scouting for Water
Current Player's Choice
Chief Tyrol has chosen the skill check (9 PR). If this skill check fails, Fuel will drop to 0 and the Cylons will win. We'll pause for Investigative Committee and Scientific FResearch interrupts.
Administrative note: Chief's discarded Crisis Card is Admiral Grilled.
I'm double checking with BT, but I'm pretty sure I can't help with this check at all.
BSG
Everyone passes on interrupts. Mr Zarek will start the check, Chief Tyrol will finish it.

I have no cards to help. So we die of thirst and run out of gas? Talk about crappy ending.
We're in a tight spot, kids.

This is just what we need, President Tigh talking up his 'child-bearing hips'.

Whoo-hoo! Now can someone get me out of this stupid cage? I finally got my hairstyle just the way I like it and would hate to start over in a new body.
ETA: I do have to say Team Human got a really sucky string of crisises they never had a chance to recover from. With how crappy things were right off the bat team Cylon may have been better served to give up all pretenses and just go for the jugular. (Though at the time I'm sure we both thought we were a team of 1.)
