And Mal dumbed Down Courtney Zoey and cameron derailed al and that's litterally it so he had just as much excuse as many saves from dumbing down chars as al did he didn't make anyone else dumber the others may not have caught him since unlike zoey they never interacted with him and weren't consistently warned Scott was dumbed the whole season to begin with seemed like a new trait Gwen knew what she saw in SMS and was OOC most of it but was most IC SMS so that doesn't count Lindsay Jo Lightning Sam Sierra Heather all had nothing to do with mike so yeah those 4 are it
