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

BSG

If you have a giant death robot, I suggest you play that.

but wouldn't that be a Cylon? She can't play a Cylon, she's a human.

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

All I need is a handful of lizards and a greenhouse well-stocked with poisons.

Quite possibly the best lizard-related comedy I have ever seen on TV. Fear their sleepy bench-walk!

It's the best bad movie I've seen outside MST3K.

I think this might be the first check where a Declare Emergency could be played. So, before we go through the consequences of falling just shy of the finish line, we will pause to see if the line can be shifted.

(ps: as a geek, I'm tickled that Green was fully representing, all numbers accounted for)

Just to clarify the current decision, you reached a partial pass, so no Morale loss. If you play a DE, then Zarek doesn't have to discard 2 cards. (I think, with the hefty showing he added to this check, he only has one remaining card to toss.)

BSG

Even though we have a partial pass and are just talking about Zarek losing his last card, given the color, I think it's more important than this one.

I play a G3.

Given that we also finally coaxed that damn P5 out of the toasters' hands, I feel really good about this one.

It might have been Destiny. You never know. I do! Mwhahaha.

BSG

Excellent, now we have a passing check! Y'all have earned "No Effect" again. I think this one comes with a bobble head.

We activate the Heavy Raiders. They shift from nowhere to nowhere.

We advance the jump track. We are still in the red! But one step closer to Kobol.

And that brings us to the end of Zareks turn.
