You don't have to worry about Mitch anyway. Best case scenario for him is a tie for second with Eva. Unless the jury is THAT upset about the whole honor and integrity thing and they give it to him over Joe, but I don't think they respect him at all so the most likely outcome is that they begrudgingly give it to Joe.
