The crew of the Wizard is working a 15 hour grind with big numbers. Greenhorn Ryan Simpson accidentally steps into the crab tank, earning the rest of crew a case of beer when they get back into town. The Cornelia Marie is back to averaging 600 keepers per pot now that the she is no longer sharing fishing grounds with the Wizard. Captain Keith decides that a distracted Josh is a liability on deck and pulls him off the deck. On board the Wizard, Greenhorn Josh Warner tells Captain Keith Colburn that he will be getting off the boat at the end of this trip so that he can see his brother who is shipping off to Iraq. On deck, a slip by Greenhorn Jake Anderson nearly causes him to be crushed under a pot being brought on board. After three consecutive 25-hour shifts with poor numbers, dirty crab, and 400,000 pounds (180,000 kg) left in their quota, the crew of the Northwestern begins to think of home.
