Joe Don's Reign Ends
As the Black Crew returns to the ship with their heads hung low, Joe Don starts to worry about how everything will unfold now that his reign as Captain is over. "I've got a target on me. I'm aware of it," he confesses. In front of the other shipmates, Cameron relieves Joe Don, Ben, and Cheryl of their command and orders them to turn in their outfits and rejoin the rest of the crew below deck. As Cheryl heads downstairs, she worries about how she will mix with a crew who until now has looked upon her as if she was never one of them. Below deck, Ben compliments Joe Don when he says it has been a pleasure to serve with him, but Joe Don is preoccupied. "Louie's got it out for me," he explains. "I feel I could get a Black Spot today."
Three Cheers for Captain Azmyth
The Red Crew excitedly brings their treasure onboard, pouring the gold coins on deck so they can count their riches. Cameron asks Jay how it feels to win and Jay admits, "I was starting to think that maybe I was a bad luck charm." Joe Don emerges from below deck as the Red Crew continues to count, turning in the Captain's hat and jacket. Louie laughs at Joe Don's "puppy dog face" when he passes his items over and comments, "It was a sad day for Joe Don and he's got many more sad days to come." Once every coin is counted, Cameron informs the crew that the treasure is worth $35,000 and that it is now time to elect a new Captain. The Red Crew unanimously chooses Azmyth to be their new leader because of his performance on the Expeditions. Azmyth then chooses Jupiter and Jay to be his Officers, and the treasure is divided, with half going to the new Captain, a quarter going to his Officers, and the remaining quarter to be split up amongst the rest of the crew. Cameron informs Azmyth that his first order of duty will involve picking the three Pirates who will be marked with the Black Spot, one of whom will most likely be cut adrift at Pirates' Court.
