I really do wonder if Banjo is going to be relevant, or if Rich is just having fun dangling this red herring.

I believe this is just Rich addressing a plothole. We talked about the role banjo might play earlier in the thread and I guess this is just Rich's way of joshing us.

This strip had two main purposes.

1. Explain to the people who were wondering (a lot of folks on the GiTP forums were expecting Banjo to play a role) why Banjo wasn't going to change the vote

2. Showcase how Roy's growing from the "Belkar was right and I was wrong" revelation. Instead of just blowing Elan off with the "He's a puppet" answer, he first provided multiple cogent reasons why it wouldn't work, showing that he is no longer going to dismiss a teammate out of hand.

Hehe, since at Roy's level 200 gold is barely anything.

200 gold is about 1/6th of the treasure a single level 4 encounter (or about one CR4 monster). I think? I believe each OotS member is level 12-ish or more.

Closer to level 18-ish. Roy is probably at the lowest due to death(if Durkon is ever revived, he'd be square with Roy), while Haley is probably at the highest level after her finishing off her rival. Vaarsuvius is level 16 minimum according to that that Power Word: Stun spell a while back. 200GP is a drop in the bucket.

Ever since Durkon got Durkula'd, Roy's had this tendency to be creepy when his eyebrows aren't visible.  Mostly when he's being extremely pragmatic.

Also this turn of events works for me, because my DND group didn't follow the wealth-by-level whatsoever.  We got our loot in the form of quirky, semi-cursed magic artifacts.  We were usually fairly starved for simple gold.

I can't help but wonder, why would they need a potion of fire resistance in a shower?

They don't, which is the joke.

I think the joke is that the mold dropped random treasure because it was technically a monster.
