Drawing Purple sounds good.
Yeah, sorry, guys I can't really afford to ditch almost my whole hand. Like the Admiral says, Food is still in good shape, so despite painful memories of last game, I'm going to have to choose -2 Food.

I move to FTL Control and XO Adama with a G2. Hope you are fully recovered, sir, you're like a father to me, you know.
Tell me I might not be human, I'm human as they come, not hearing any music, not talking to invisible people, just muttering to myself, but everybody does that...
BSG
In dealing cards to Helo, the Leadership (Green) deck was depleted and reshuffled.
BSG
Hope you are fully recovered, sir, you're like a father to me, you know.
As long as I'm not like the father you never had, Helo. The fleet frowns upon the parentless, you know.
The Admiralissimo is free! (With every box of Weeties.) I shall:
Move (back) to the Press Room (discard an XO-1)
Play an LS-2 on the Destination Deck
We'll be jumping soon - in fact, I would suggest we jump as soon as we've found a good choice. Helo, if you could stand ready with your reroll I'd be much obliged.
BSG
The roll is a 3. The Admiralissimo squeaks by and Helo's manly arms are not needed.
BSG
Leave it on top. Not everything we want, but certainly good enough.
BSG
And it's time for your crisis! It involves fuel... Let's see how Helo handles Send Survey Team (15 PRB), shall we?
BSG
Argh. With my re-roll and an SP we'd have good odds on that die roll, but it's still a gamble.
BSG
The thoughts of your illustrious leader. (No, I mean me. Who did you think I meant, President Meerkat? ...Yes, his fine work on the Lambada Cylon Detector has earned him a promotion. I still mean me.)
1. With an SP and Helo's reroll, we would have a 14% chance of losing Fuel. Those are pretty good odds. I'm willing to try for it (if someone has an SP, as I can't help there).
2. The fail effect from the skill check is better than the fail effect from the die roll. I'm also fine with taking the skill check and deliberately failing.
3. I'm less keen on taking the skill check and trying to pass it. This is as expensive as Bomb on Colonial One, for less payoff. (And I could only help a little.)
4. Jumps yay!
Ok Helo, this is pretty much all on you. Let's see what you're made of.
