I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

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

Apologies for the delay everyone, I needed to check something with DQ. Zarek moves to the President's Office, not Admin, and draws a Quorum card (which I've sent to him). Zarek may now draw another Quorum card or play one from his hand. President Zarek, when you're ready, please post your choice.

President Zarek has drawn a second Quorum card.

Time for a crisis. Looks like (stop me if you've heard this one) one ship didn't make the jump. But now they're back on DRADIS and heading your way. Dr Baltar is convinced the ship is now full of zombies waiting to eat your braaaaains. Will the fleet listen to him and destroy it?

Skill Check 11 YGR

Possible interrupts are Investigative Committee and Scientific Research. Everyone, please pass or play.

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

I wish I could interrupt. Boy howdy, now is the time. That said, I can help some on this one.

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

No interrupts here. I can help a little with the check.

Sorry, no Investigative Committee here either.

I've got a few cards for the check. Difficulty 11 isn't that bad either.

I now have passes on interrupts from everyone, so let's start the check. I have COs from Adama, so we're up to Boomer. A reminder, as Boomer is in the Brig she is limited to a maximum of one card into the check.

Destiny: 2 cards
Adama: 2 cards
Boomer: (limit 1 card)
Apollo:
Helo:
Zarek:

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

Sorry I must have nodded off. I play one card.

Hey, look at that! They're not zombies after all, they've just been watching a 48-hour 7th Heaven marathon.

Tally: 30 - 2 = 28. Pass, a lot - no effect.

Finally, the jump prep advances by 1. That concludes Zarek's turn. Admiral Adama, I'm sending you your card draw. When you're ready, please post your move and action.
