If the vote had gone the other way.


When the guys are having the heated discussion about what to do about the mountain man’s body, we see that they end up agreeing with Lewis about burying the body. I’ve often wondered though - if Lewis had LOST the vote does anyone here think he would’ve honoured the decision to go to the authorities, just like Drew honoured his ?

Brilliant film.

It would have never gone the other way. Lewis knew Bobby wasn't gonna vote against him after what he'd been through. So at the very least it was gonna be 2 for, 2 against which is a stalemate.
