Hey now. Wedge is alive. We're not. Give the guy (?) some credit.

Not only that, but think of it this way: Faris is almost certainly going to die today. Leon and Luneth have both claimed protective roles; one is lying, one is not. If both the mafioso and the protector target the same person tonight, they'll pretty much have to vote for each other tomorrow, meaning Wedge decides who wins and who loses. That's worth something.
