Actions within actions within actions

If you use an executive order card to trigger another character acting, and they use their first action to launch themselves in a viper from the hangar deck, do they get two subsequent actions (one from the hangar deck's text, one from the second action on the executive order card), or just one (because the hangar deck action interrupts the executive order)?

You get two more actions, yes.

Actions can always chain out like this - which is why you cannot exec order an exec order and similar limiting factors like that.

My favorit thing is Lee, Nothing like launghing two nuggets to let Lee jump into a ship and get another action.

I have gone as far as discarding a card to land Lee, go into the command center launch two nuggets and jump back into a viper then get another action.

Some of the many cheesy things you can do with Lee....
