Below Deck 3/13/23

I love the new calmer more jovial Captain Lee. Gimme this Lee any day over the grumpy one!

I thought we had kind of a grouchy Lee last season. If that was the one where he was sort of ‘grooming’ Eddie to act like him.

Remember, they were sittin up in the wheelhouse spying on what everyone was doing, like being on their phones or eye-rolling. He kept barking into the radio, and bitching at the deck crew. He seemed really really extra that season than in previous ones.

He was even scolding Eddie for helping the deck crew when he was like, not doing anything else. As if stupid Eddie is too important to do menial tasks. It’s Eddie! Remember the same Eddie that was bending Rocky over the ironing board??

It was weird. It was sort of not unlike the way that Sandy has been acting, just a little more subtle. Lee is smart enough to be subtle about it.

But now who IS this man? He’s so happy. He’s chillin and hangin with the deckies on the dock, and even engineered playing a prank on a guest. He must be on some good meds. Boat approved of course. Maybe just some muscle relaxers or something.

This Ross and Katie boatmance is getting absolutely excruciating to watch. Producers did her dirty with these back and forth yaps where they’re saying the complete and total opposite observations about each other, and this ‘relationship.’

Stews are gellin like crazy and killing it, now that the Americans are gone, I hate to say it. I really hate to say it. But that shows how I try to be unbiased. Alissa was a good worker though. She just needed to keep her mouth shut. Camille was a shit worker that needed to keep her mouth shut.

They flash to the coffee convo that Rachel and Sandy had three charters ago, where she literally told Rachel very nicely, that she sucked. She told her that she’s “a joy to have on board.” But you suck.

Shortly after that, I forget how she justified it, she suddenly decided it was all Fraser’s fault. That food wasn’t served, that literally was not plated nor even ready. And Rachel went along with it since it’s easy to get sucked into that. I guess because it sort of elevates you. Then when Sandy Captain Sandy started love bombing her to death, it was all over. It was actually sort of low key brainwashing, and no one will convince me otherwise. So don’t try.

Rachel, still under Sandy’s mind control, keeps harping on cutting back on the courses, and that being all fucking Sandy’s idea. That eight course menu was requested by the guests so, I’m so confused. Thought what the guests want, the guests get. I mean, it’s not normal for the chefs to do eight fucking courses at every dinner, except when requested. Rachel should have been more efficient and quicker, with not having a half hour between each course. Period. This is not complicated. This was not Fraser’s fault. It was Rachel’s.

What am I missing here? Are they trying to brainwash us?

New stew Leigh-Ann gets the skinny on Ben and Camille. Leigh-Ann has no hesitation whatsoever on moving in on him. Camille is gone. Camille is in Mississippi. Doing whatever Mississippians do.

We know she’s not working. Working on her tan maybe. Hayley encourages her to go for it. I love Hayley. Anything that will piss Camille off, I’m all for.

This whole thing with these two just happening to know each other on Tinder, seems a bit curious.

Oh don’t worry – I’m going for it!

Guests requested this dance party Club thing. Which actually turned out really cute. With little to no drama. I hate when the guests go right to bed after dinner. So lame. They don’t need to stay up until 5 am acting like hoodlums, but, like do SOMETHING!!

Ben and Leigh-Ann have a little cozy moment where she asks about Camille, and Ben says “we’re not dating but we’re seeing each other after this.”

It’s funny to me to take a whole ass island vaca with someone you’ve known for like two weeks. That probably is the real time breakdown of the number of days between when they met, to when she got canned.

Whatever, Who cares. Ready for the finale and ready for this shit show to be over.

Fucking sucks that there’s no reunion. If you ask me, Bravo is saving Sandy Captain Sandy’s ass so she doesn’t have to answer to her creepy bizarre behavior, possible racism, and complete bias against gay dudes. I mean COME ON, have you been paying attention?? And I have it on record from a gay guy that gay women HATE gay guys.

Convincing Rachel she needed to “keep having these talks” with Fraser, to tear him down, bitching at him over the radio over NOTHING. And that fucking shit at that stupid volleyball game, where she had the stews against the deck crew, after she already had this animosity and divide going anyway, now she has them playing a team sport against each other. She knew the deck crew would hand their asses to stews.

It was the last thing that they needed. She couldn’t even divide up the teams so it would be a little bit even. Then in front of the whole group “Fraser ruined everything by not playing!!”

Please. If you didn’t see these subliminal mind games, then get glasses.

This is why there’s no reunion. Bravo sees her disgusting behavior, and jusr doesn’t want her to get put on the spot trying to justify it.

They want to keep Sandy around for the drama, plus she’s a gay female Captain, so she checks all the boxes. So what, she’s being emotionally abusive, and is so beyond biased in who she takes under her wing, and who she beats up on.

Duh. Wake up.

I’m not sure Captain Lee was amused by Rachel’s ‘old people’ bit. I think he thought she was making fun of him. It looked really awkward. She would have been better off going with ‘eat my cooter.’

He seemed amused by that. Maybe because it involved the word ‘cooter.’ He is a guy after all.

Are you making fun of me Riz??

The guests leave a whopper of a tip. So glad after the SHIT TIP LaQueef and friends left.

What’s this? What have we here?? Crew relaxing for two minutes, enjoying some sun and fun and unwinding by the water? What if one crew member is inside working? That’s just the be all end all, of life as we know it!! Who do they think they are??

Thank God Creepy Captain Creepy is gone!!!!

Sandy Captain Sandy, would NOT be having this!!

Leigh-Ann views Camille’s photos and refers to her as a “dumb American blonde.” So they even have a name for us in Brit. I mean them. A Poppy?? Well, yeah girl, ya hit the nail on the head. She’s a poppy all right.

Ben continues to flirt heavily with Leigh-Ann. Ross continues to piss off Katie with his fuck-boy antics.

She actually thinks she could have a long distance relationship with this weirdo when she can’t even trust him to not pick up girls, when she’s standing five feet away.

They have an uncomfortable and bickering ride back. Yawn. He dresses like a fucking bum.

Fraser also encourages Ben to ditch Camille. It’s kind of funny how we’re sort of fighting over this dude (only Camille doesn’t know she has competition) when he comes off to me like kind of a pussy.

The crew is so fucking drunk. So drunk, and pissing, and throwing food everywhere.

Ben and Leigh-Ann have this other ‘moment’ and it’s not too hard to figure out what’s going to be happening. (okay I did see the previews, but I would still know! Cuz I just know!!)

Katie sort of apologizes to Ross about being ticked he’s hitting on chicks in front of her. Yuck. Girl stop.

She seems to possibly have seen the light. That she just needs to have her fun with (if you wanna call this ‘fun’) this dude, and expect nothing after she walks off of this boat. I’m glad she’s been NOT giving up the goodies. At least that’s how it appears. But who knows.

The new guests arrive, and they look like they’re going to chew poor Fraser up and spit him out! They’re going to chew up everyone and spit them out. They look like Terminator 2.0.

Crew has had it by this point and barely makes it to the dock to do the super annoying fake meet and greet.

We’re smiling on the inside.

I think it will be funny if they turn out to be super sweet and low maintenance.

Still bummed about NO REUNION!! Where is the complaint box??
