IMO his first priority is to get a crew. That's what he says - we don't hear him talk about going to free his friends or feeling responsible for

survivors of his mutiny.
Yes, but quite apart from the personal characteristics of Gan and Vila, Blake hasn't obtained ENOUGH of a crew--at a minimum, he should have one qualified pilot to cover each eight-hour shift, plus at least five people per shift for things like going downplanet to rescue each other so there'll still be a full crew on the flight deck when the inevitable three pursuit ships turn up.

PS--since the flight deck arguments are my favorite part of the show, sometimes I like to think that one of Blake's rescue missions resulted in collecting Tarrant, so he and Jenna can fight all the time...
