If you’ve been watching for a while, the Captain has been suffering from a nerve issue for quite some time.

“My injury, it’s getting worse. The left side of my body, I don’t feel anything,” he explained on the episode. “I expected a lot more progress than I’m experiencing, and the most frustrating part about it is, I can’t do a god goddamn thing about it, and it’s hard.”

“One of my biggest problems now is I’m not able to observe. I don’t know who’s doing what, it’s my job,” he added. “They expect that out of me. There comes a point if a captain is really being objective, he should be putting the best interests of his crew first.”

He then informed the crew of his decision to step away.

“As you guys know I’ve been struggling with my mobility, and it’s been hard and I’ve let you guys down and for that, I apologize,” he said. “So I’ve made a decision to leave the boat.”

The episode ended on a “to be continued,” so we don’t know how the crew will react to this news.
