An important thing to recognise is that curly was always going to do something about Jimmy, otherwise he wouldn’t have crashed the ship

The entire reason Jimmy crashed the ship is to avoid taking responsibility, it’s the thematic point of that action. But a bunch of people for some reason seem to think that curly was gonna let him get off Scot free? If he wasn’t going to get in trouble, whether it be an intervention or jail time when back on earth or something along those lines, then why would he crash the ship?
