Thanks, Seatlemom. I thought she would have to decide whether to use the pardon, or not, before the votes were counted.

It went so fast and I turned my head away for a second when this was all going on.

Kendra, most definitely, was the only voter last night to vote for Louie. The producers made sure that her ballot was lighted to where we could see through it as it was made, and I'm proud of her for taking a stand. Joe Don was right in reminded her that he pulled her through the waters, even though he did it for the interest of his whole team....and not so much as a personal aid.

Now, I wonder if she is going to fess up that she voted for Louie, or try to act like it was one of the other three.

What was totally annoying was the fact that Azmyth had made it totally clear he was weakening the potential red crew and what does this show do...they give them a challenge where they had to do a huge amount of physically exhausting rowing which probably was very debilitating. Not to mention that the Black Crew had three men on it and the Red Crew only two...and they still managed to almost win!

Red crew would of won but the black team decided to follow them because they hadn't a clue where to go.

The crew should have made a deal together that whatever girls drew to be on the black crew would do their best to slow down the Triad. I would have been willing to make an equal split between all crew members if the red crew won just to get rid of the Triad. We all know who would get the black spots.

I think I would have mutinied before the fact and refused to do any chores on deck until I got sufficient food!

Why can't they split the clues so that the teams aren't on each other's heels all the time? It means one team can just follow the other around without doing all the work. It was just a fluke last night that the black team found the opening first...if they hadn't been able to follow the red team they would have been further behind.

I don't think that it was smart of Jupiter to show her hand...she will be a target if the women on the red crew ever get the upper hand.

You hit the nail on the head Roxip. I was wondering why they didn't give each team separate tasks to be completed or a different set of clues to different areas which would eventually lead to the same treasure (kind of like them giving each team a key up a separate tree). That way they couldn't cheat by following the other team.

Maybe Jupiter knew the officers would never mutiny, so she said it wasn't a good idea? Don't they have to follow a certain set of rules for the game, such as losers having to eat gruel?

Question: Is Jay still the Bosun mate? Has he always been?

I don't think Jay is currently the Bosun mate...doesn't appear to be an "official" one. Jay is now an "officer."

But he was the only designated bosun mate.

Ok, what's a Bosun mate? I also agree it was ridiculous the black crew could just follow the red crew to where the treasure was. Bad planning on the people who put this show together.

Roxip, I agree with you too. This last episode showed the black team not even understanding their clue at one point and just following the red team and of course ultimately winning the challenge.

I also wish the mutiny didn't need to include the officers. Why would they ever agree? They are raking in the money and even if they lose a challenge... chances are the captain will take the fall first, giving them plenty of time to cover their butts.

The bosun is like a supervisor. He's the one who takes orders from the captain and gives 'em to the crew. So the captain and his officers don't have to get their hands dirty, so to speak. Sorta like a supervisor, sorta like a union rep. Jay was assigned that role because JD wanted him to also be his mole.

I for one am glad JD got booted. He was saying something about all the lies?? What the heck is he talking about?

Well, if there was a mutiny and the officers DID agree...they would stand a better chance of not being put up for eviction once they were no longer officers (just playing devils advocate here). Say the crew decides to mutiny...if you go against the crew and side with the Captain you surely know that if you ever lose power the three people going up immediately for castoff will be the three of you. Instead you make a deal not to be put up for eviction and you guarantee yourself another day on the boat instead of on the beach.

Jay has already indicated he would go along with an eviction...probably because of the thought outlined above. I don't like him but I think that he is the smartest game player at this time.

Another note about the other crew members on the black team, they don't want to cause their team to lose even if it means getting the 'triad' ousted, because they get paid from the booty they find. Losers don't get any. Having the most treasure booty is a position they are all striving for. Seems like they would make a deal with the crew to upset a challenge on the basis they get an equal share of the booty!

It's too bad the black team didn't lead the red team away from the X and run them around until red team realized they needed to go back to the cannon and start over with the clue. That would have given JoeDon's crew a valuable lead. Oh, well, hindsight and all that jazz.

I didn't read the article, but let me guess. "It was all in the editing." ??

Actually, he whined more about how long production took. And yeah, a bit about the editing. As in, due to the editing, some of the stories were really disjointed. Like, we never did really see WHY JD was elected as first captain. And I guess there were reasons (although he never defined them in the article).

Well, the reason that was touched on briefly during the episode (very briefly) and that I read more about in a subsequent write-up was that JD was picked as Captain because of his past experience in the Navy, and he organized the team into grids during that first challenge which enabled them to find the treasure more methodically. Like I said, it was skimmed over pretty fast in the episode, but when I read the article, I remember his yelling to spread out and make a grid.
