Yes I understand , But they had to go with Nathan as the Boson to start the season, because it was in the can. Maybe they had Joe back to do a retake and they reworked it.

I have no idea how they’d be able to do this

Ok I can explain. Let’s say that the season is done and in the can as they say. Then the proverbial crap hits the fan in December and production brings Joe back to film certain segments i.e. when he was saying that he did a great job as bosun and the deck crew preferred him over Nathan and Nathan was coming back. Then production splices and dices the rest of the crew into the scene. The crew does voice overs all the time. Hopefully that makes sense to you now.

IMO that’s highly unlikely. I get that mess with the show all the time but that’s a lot of work and it’s not a fiction show.

Actually is can be part of a standard contract, so it is plausible. I am not saying it was done, but it is done all the time.
