Kendra steps forward to defend herself and admits that she's slow in the water before saying, "I will never stop and give up on you. I can just remind you that I am getting stronger." When Cameron asks the crew why Kendra has been marked five times, Laurel says Kendra is weak, but in the end, she'd much rather compete against Kendra than Nessa. Nessa is surprised to hear Ben and Jay sing Kendra's praises when each of them bring up the fact that Kendra is getting progressively stronger on each Expedition.
When Nessa defends herself, she says she's flattered to be considered a threat before adding, "I want to know if my strength is more of a threat to you than Kendra's weakness is detrimental." She then mentions her losing streak and wonders if something else is at play. "I'm not really sure if there's some kind of pact or what the deal is," she says, addressing her fellow shipmates. "Is there something going on that I should know about?" She looks at each member of the jury and they all shake their heads, remaining quiet.
When it's time to vote, the Pirates cast their ballots atop the dagger's blade. Cameron examines the ballots and informs Christa that she is safe from Mutiny. He looks at Kendra and Nessa and tells Nessa that the vote is unanimous: her voyage is over. Nessa's mouth drops in shock, before she turns to her crew. "I'm both flattered and disgusted at your guys' cowardice," she says as she begins to disembark. "I'd rather run among the strong than lie among the weak. Have fun eating each other alive." And with those final words, Nessa is cut adrift.
