GRENADA, CARIBBEAN: Jared Woodin found himself in a feud with Kyle Stillie over spilling tobacco on the deck. Captain Kerry Titheradge was displeased with Jared's intoxicated reaction during the altercation and ended up firing the Bosun.

Reflecting on the incident, Captain Kerry remarked, "There's a lot going on last night that I didn't see. What I did see was two guys talking loudly...to me, it seemed like Kyle was trying to de-escalate the situation." However, in a confessional, Captain Kerry criticized Jared's behavior, "Jared has had a history of getting drunk and bad manners."

Seeking clarity, Captain Kerry questioned deckhand Kyle about the altercation. Kyle admitted that Jared was heavily intoxicated and verbally aggressive towards him. Additionally, Kyle revealed that Jared's behavior escalated to the point where he barged into Barbie Pascual's room, causing her to feel threatened.

After assessing Jared's behavior, Captain Kerry acknowledged, "This guy (Jared) is really creating a problem for me."

Addressing Jared directly, Captain Kerry expressed disappointment, stating, "This is the second time you've had bad behavior." He added that the way Jared is treating fellow crew members is not acceptable. "I have shown you compassion but you've got s**t going on your mind," said Captain. He then gave his verdict and asked Jared to depart from the deck.
