I'm not saying Timbo's host, (he could just as easily be the smuggler looking for help, or a passenger trying to generate conversation/ideas) but I wouldn't exclude him as host based on that comment.

There was no talk about who would you give the spore to before that, so it would be a bad play by the hosts to start drumming up that conversation and get people thinking about it.
