The Ship of Fools is heading downstream towards the rapids with captain Donald at the helm. His crew wants to do the right thing and head for shore, but he is yelling (tweeting) at them to continue on imagining a yuge crowd waiting for him downstream, in-fact the biggest crowd to ever meet a ship. He threatens them with "repercussions far greater than any of them understand" if they don't do as he says. The crew knows the captain is crazy and the ship will be destroyed if they go along with his demands. Most crew members are too wimpy to go against his threats, but three brave souls have the courage to throw out the anchor and prevent the ship from crumbling.
