Picks up with the guests on the beach bitching about being fed. If I were a chef on these yachts, I would constantly have food going to pick at. Nothing fancy or extravagant, just char boards, or simple
appetizers. Tired of all the whining that they’re hungry constantly. It couldn’t have been that long ago that they were served a huge breakfast.
We deal with this every night before dinner too. It’s like listening to a bunch of children. Ross distracts them, or trying to, by giving them a ‘tour’ of the beach. “This is the eating area, this is the lounging area.” I’m sure they forgot all about being hungry.
Honestly though, just to point this out, and acknowledge both sides, they were informed by way of the preference sheet, that she needed fed every two hours. So Rachel should have made sure she had like a doggy bag type thing with snacks or a sandwich at all times. If you’ve never been pregnant and experienced pregnant hunger it is a beast all it’s own. With my second, she actually started kicking the shit out of me when I needed fed. So there were hunger pangs coupled with feeling like my getting my organs bashed in. So fun.
Rachel calls for Alissa and she ignores her for whatever reason. Maybe Camille rubbed off on her. Lunch is 40 minutes late.
They manage to stop bitching while eating. Yes, even the dude that thinks his soup needs poured for him. Maybe be wants stews to chew up his food and spit it in his mouth.
The pregnant lady dubs Fraser her “favorite human on the planet” after he fetches her her hat, which makes their exit extra confusing. Guess she just loves him when he’s waiting on her hand and foot.
The staff are running around like chickens (chicken is for poor people) with their head cut off, but nothing is good enough for these people.
Katie who seems desperate to play house with Ross, and wants him to move into her room, and have Fras bunk with the new stew. Given the way Ross acts constantly, and how blatantly obvi it is that he doesn’t really give two shits about her, not sure why she would think this is a smart move. Girls can be so fucking clueless sometimes. Like girl read the room. Thought she wanted to withhold the goodies anyway.
Alissa needs to not worry about what the fuck Pussy Ben thinks of her. He’s SUCH A FUCKING TWAT. In which I have four cases in point, one of which I forgot about until recently.
1. didn’t defend Camille or correct Ross, and tell him to back off his bitch when Ross attacked her in the hot tub. Literally just sat there.
2. drinks Friggin Pina Coladas
3. threw three cases of water bottles on a girl to ‘punish’ her with his lip sticking out like a toddler
4. has been crying like a bitch, tears and all over dumb bitch Camille getting canned.
So a dude stew coming on board. Confused because in a preview thought it was some chick that pussy boy Ben previously hooked up with?
New stew has “more experience than both girls combined.” Fraser says. Hopefully Fraser loses the 2nd and 3rd stew appointments, to help do away with the animosity that always seems to accompany that set-up. It seems like the Chief Stews just do that to alleviate themselves of having to delegate and supervise. Then when the 2nd corrects or assigns the 3rd stew, they’re usually “fuck you – you’re not my boss!” And yes, it often goes to their heads and they get a little carried away with a little authority.
I also don’t think the CS ever makes it clear to the deemed ‘3rd’ that they are to answer to the 2nd. And ‘3rd stew’ is kind of insulting. Like do we really need titles for maids? What’s Hayley’s title? Is she also a 3rd? I forget.
Tyler arrives and well let’s just say Camille got her wish ! A super star stew to fill her shoes is aboard!
And he is a cutie! I love the South African peeps for some reason. Except for Kyle…
Seems very into housekeeping type duties and towel folding.
Wonder if there’s room for two queens on board! I think there is.
Alissa introduces herself to him as “the 2nd stewardess.” Okay calm down there girl, he’s got more experience, so you’re not going to need to be bossing him around. And no one cares you’re the 2nd stew.
But I get it, I guess, she’s trying to establish her rank.
I’m not like a total Alissa fan, I realize she doesn’t walk on water. But I do think she dealt with wacko Camille the best she could. At least she tried, whereas Fraser the Chief Stew just stuck his head in the sand and refused to correct her or deal with her. Alissa certainly did not “get Camille fired” for Chrissakes. Whoever thinks that is wacked. Anyone who thinks that must have never had a job before. I think I went on a tangent about that last week so I’ll spare you. Not to mention the decision was made by Fraser. The final straw was her ditching her work and partying all day. So there’s that.
And the ultimatum was issued by Sandy to shape up or ship out. (no pun intended – another ship work related expression) She then proceeded to goof off the next day, so – ya know let’s use our brains here. Do the math. Why doesn’t Pussy Ben go throw 50 pounds onto Sandy’s chest?? That BETTER get addressed at the reunion!!!
Rachel compares Fras to Bleeker from the Muppets.
The Muppet characters are getting a lot of shout-outs this season by Bravo. If you watch RHOP, you know what I mean. I think almost everyone could be compared to a Sesame Street character or muppet. Hmmmm, who am I ? Maybe Zoey?
Fraser seats everyone before Rachel is ready for that. Everyone is standing around staring at her which would drive me crazy. Good news is she’s doing three courses. Let’s see what this entitled prick bitches about this time. Maybe the stupid primay dude who whines about his soup not being poured for him, wants his food chewed for him first and spit into his mouth like a bird.
Tyler continues to dazzle. Guests are not the big partyers, and turn in right after the dinner, that did not take three hours.
Katie gets used to her new OCD roommate. She and Camille are apparently slobs.
The guests depart and Jack-off pisses and moans about “a few hiccups along the way, looking for drinks, Luisa was hungry, and needed snacks…”
Do these people really want to come off this douchey and ungrateful on TV in front of a million people?
Apparently they do. Unless the service was completely horrific, which it wasn’t, this is just so repulsive in my opinion to stand there and whine about the service. And a seven months pregnant woman should not be extensively traveling. Let’s use our brain.
You can tell Sandy is fuming. I agree with Alissa and Hayley, that was a little going to town and unnecessary. Just criticism that I didn’t see as being constructive, just bitchy. Didn’t help when Sandy was also bitching about the crew in front of them. Sandy getting a little too big for her britches. She needs to calm down. We see her get really cracra in the next episode. So we replaced a Captain with physical ailments, with a Captian having some sort of mental breakdown.
She does not need to wave her dick around and act like Captain Lee. One Captain Lee is enough.
Tip meeting and Fraser takes a jab at you-know-who with pointing out they’ve lost quite a few champagne glasses. But thought he ADDOWWWWED her so much, Dawwwwwling.
So the tip was decent at least. Surprisingly Sandy is not a dick about Douche Bag’s ‘feedback.’
Maybe it’s coming later. The crew is being treated to one of those excursion things where you know the fights and hook-ups happen, and then fighting about the hook-ups that happen.
Fraser is feeling bad about the guest commentary.
Sandy invites Rachel out for coffee as Fraser talks to the stews.
Alissa gets all bent out of shape about Fraser saying something about the beach picnics.
I know Hayley does an eye roll here and social media commentary was mostly with Hayley, and while I do kind of see that reaction as well, I do also feel for Alissa and her frustration. I just do. I don’t follow the crowd, and I am empathetic towards her, and what she had to deal with.
I can see how Hayley is getting sick of it though, but she needs to keep in mind, she’s not the one that had to cope with her lipping off, and had to pick up her slack constantly.
And I want to take this opportunity to point out something else. Even though I think we’ve talked her and Camille’s screaming match to death, we’re over it. It seems like it was weeks ago. But I want to touch on it for a sec to help you all better understand Alissa’s reaction when she said “there’s something in laundry that needs pressed, that’s it, that’s the talk.” You guys realized Camille’s dramatic and pretend frustration (as if she’d been working so hard, at the beach, she wasn’t) was her way of trying to get out of doing this small task. Just for the fun of it. That’s why she was like “OMG give me a minute…!!” She was 100% going to go off and probably eat, which is fine if she was hungry, but ultimately she would have never came back to get her instruction and blown off the assignment.
Alyssa knew this, and that’s why popped off and told her what to do. I’ve worked with people like her.
And it would get under my skin too, and me upset as well, that Ben is walking around with his asshole up in the air around her. It’s kind of disgusting actually. Ben is a sorry excuse for a dude. He and Camille deserve each other, actually. If you can’t feel a little bit for Alissa here, and are ‘team Camille’ and don’t think Ben is a little fucking twat, then I don’t know what to say you. Agree to disagree I guess. But I AM right.
Rachel tells Sandy that she thinks there is some communication issues with Fraser. Sandy wants her to deal with the shortcoming or whatever of Fraser. I think this is a lot to do with this being Fraser’s first CS gig, and having to learn how to manage and deal with people, while still doing what needs to be done. Perhaps he wasn’t quite ready yet?
Sandy contradicts herself with wanting her department heads to work it out on their own before she steps in, however that didn’t seem to be the case with Camille. She seemed all too happy to step in with her.
And she kind of fucked it up, but giving her this false sense of accomplishment. Or you could look at it as it all worked out, because it ultimately got her fired, since she seemed to think she had it ‘in’ with the Captain.
Ross lets Katie know there will be no roomie situation with the two of them.
Katie refers to it as a “hilarious idea for him to move in, your work flirt becomes your roommate.”
She also called this ‘funny’ on WWHL too. Seems an interesting word to describe it. Maybe she just feels dumb that he wasn’t interested?
I don’t know if I would want to be this close of quarters with someone I just started seeing, dating, whatever they call it on the yachting. I like Katie, but she’s strange. And naive for a thirty year old.
Stupid, no self awareness, no shame whatsoever Camille meets the crew for dinner, after being fired for just all together sucking.
Fraser pulls her aside, and no one gets why he is so beside himself with worry as to what Camille thinks of him, and if she’s ‘mad at him.’ Fraser needs to toughen up.
Again with the “I really really like you…” to one of most unlikable people in Below Deck History. She’s right in the category with Trashley from SY and that Lexi fucking Exorcist looking freak.
He admits in his yap it’s confusing, yes it is confusing Fras, because you’re not being honest.
Alissa seems to have handled it well, and just sort of ignored her. Bravo producers probably wanted more of a reaction. I’m sure that was the purpose here. I’m glad she didn’t give it.
Seriously Bravo, this dramatic stupid love song, as they’re making out, and kissing good-bye?? They’ve known each other for less than a month at this point. Haul her ass back to Mississippi. Seems like a good place for her. I have a feeling she’ll be making her reality TV rounds though, unfortunately.
Ben gets all sappy in his yap. Who wants to tell him as soon as she saw what a fucking little pussy he is, she’d be ditching him anyway.
Okay so we knew this was coming, or at least I did, because I know everything. Ross and Katie get it on in a guest cabin.
So gross. I hope there is a condom being used. Not only do we not need another Below Deck baby, but Ross is most likely carrying some diseases around. Don’t need a Below Deck STD either.
I’m even more grossed out when he refers to their interaction in his yap as “a release” and jokes howhe’s a sex addict.ICK.
It’s the infamous day-off party, drink way too much, and see who gets the most drunk-day. We already know who will win this one.
Rachel should be a stand-up comic, if she ever wanted a side hustle. There is nothing unfunny about every single thing that comes out of her mouth. In a good way. Not like when Camille says “I’m trying my hardest.”
Ben gets out of the water naked, covering up what I suspect to be a dick the size of a thumbtack.
The excursion continues to a mud bath spot and we can see Ross has the completely blacked-out face, and it’s only 4pm. He’s also already getting flirty with Alissa, and it’s only 4pm.
This is what she does that I’m NOT in agreement with, and supportive of. She’s coming off as desperate by flirting with him when she knows he and Katie are a boat thing item.
Poor Katie in her yap calls their hook-up “a magical night” while Ross calls it “a release.” Can she really be this dumb?? Does she really need to question his motives?
He keeps burping loud smelly burps when in the van.
At dinner Alissa takes this opportunity in his shit faced state to get all flirty with him, and accompany him to smoke a ciggy. Has this girl no self-respect? So literally two chicks are after this sloppy drunk disease infested fuck boy? Like there are no red flags here? At all?
Katie looks on as Alissa is lobbying with Ross to be his chick. She tells him she’s hotter than Katie. Yes, she just said that.
She claims in her yap she flirts with him because he’s a scumbag and it’s fun. No girl. Just own that you really are attracted to this scumbag. Don’t play with us!! It’s fucking obvious that you’re into the scumbag. Yuck.
However I did think it was amusing, and I totally concur, when she says “you can’t ruin a relationship that’s not there, and as much as Katie wants to be his wifey, he’s not in the market.”
But at the same time she knows she’s causing tension, and should probably knock it off. I’m trying really hard to back her up, but can’t defend her with this shit.
Katie, again, with the brainless bullshit tries to have a serious convo with Ross at the table when he can barely hold his head up. She needs to stick with yachting because she clearly can’t have a career that involves any type of thinking skills.
Ross should probably realize that in his leadership position on the boat, this drunken into oblivion behavior when they are out is really really unprofessional, to say the least. He looks like a fucking bum.
Shockingly, he is STILL drinking. They should not be allowing him to keep ordering drinks. Katie does her usual bitching about him, which is getting so tiring. Hayley is right, it’s a girl code type situation with Alissa’s constant trying to get his attention. It doesn’t matter what a joke you think their ‘relationship’ is. Everyone knows it is, but there are just certain things you do not do, because it makes you look like a skank.
Poor new guy Tyler gets caught in the crossfire since he is Katie’s roomie (maybe it would be better if they roomed together on second thought) when Ross comes to her room drunkenly tries to explain himself.
As Alissa in the hot tub tells everyone it’s always all Ross, and he keeps “grabbing her all the time.”
I guess she forgot about the pesky cameras, as they often do.
She follows him around like a puppy begging for his attention. And wants to talk about Katie having no self respect?
——2/6/22 EPISODE———
I have a feeling this will be long with a lot of F bombs because I was really really annoyed with Sandy’s weird tyrannical counter productive management style, and seemingly trying to pit the departments against each other. Deck Crew vs Stews, Chef vs Chief Stew. Like what the fuck Sandy? Now I don’t blame Lee for ripping her a new one on social media.
Due to clearly unbiased treatment of some of this staff, Hannah is now speaking out about the unfair and biased treatment that she received as well. Sandy is not a good leader if she lets personal feelings and vendettas interfere in her professional environment. If you recall other staff under Lee used anti-anxiety meds that may or may not have been logged in and approved.
Anyone with a brain could see that was completely overblown by Sandy. My God she was getting all dramatic and saying the boat could lose her license, or some shit, over anxiety meds. Hannah has talked about her anxiety issues before, so I don’t think she was using them inappropriately. It was clear there was something else going on there. I think it was this charter that she freaked out that the breakfast table wasn’t set yet, when the guests weren’t even up yet and not due up for another hour. Hannah was still sleeping since she was late night stew, and Sandy was going off the deep end (another one – no pun intended) and made the morning stew wake her up.
It was so obviously a Hannah take down campaign, and she just wanted to pick and poke at her. She started screaming at her about making OJ, and the table, when the guests were fucking still in bed. That’s fucking tyrannical fucking bullshit. I remember watching that in complete disbelief. There is a good online article published by US Magazine (they won’t allow me to post the link) where Hannah describes how Sandy had it in for before she even worked with her, from things she didn’t agree with on previous episodes before she joined the show. Maybe it was a sexual tension kind of thing. Hannah does fit her ‘type’ she seems to be attracted to. So Sandy is like a ten year old boy, basically. She’s nasty to girls she has a crush on. Professional.
All right – moving on. Is Ross seriously eating Sugar Smacks? Why is that so fucking unsurprising.
Also not surprising, he has no recollection of his behavior r the previous night. This dude. Katie FINALLY catching on that Ross is a ‘fuck boy?’ I have some other choice words for him, but okay let’s go with that for now.
She thinks she’s being effective by giving him this pissy little tude while they’re washing the boat.
She and Ben start trashing Alissa. I don’t get why she keeps heavily flirting with Ross, and leading him on, or whatever you want to call it, I’m not down with that, but the Camille and Alissa thing is a whole separate fucking issue!
Camille was nasty, mouthy and didn’t want to work, and didn’t want to be given orders or instruction. Alissa clapped back and stood up to the bully. Camille wasn’t used to that. If Alissa would’ve let her walk all over her, viewers would have been bitching about that. Remember when they had their little tiff in the cabin, Alissa said “you just don’t like that I stand up to you.” That I agreed with. As I said before, I don’t think Alissa handled everything perfectly, but Camille was the FURTHEST fucking thing from a stellar stew, and she was always difficult, and took pride in being difficult. Like she bragged about getting expelled from her high school! She literally thought she was on vacay. People need to learn to look at the whole picture sometimes. I’m not saying I’m always right, but I’m usually right.
I can’t fucking stand Kate Chastain, but Camille would have lasted like ten minutes under her.
Rachel and Fras convene to try to obtain more of a flow to get the food out faster between courses.
Sandy planted the seed in her head that this is service’s fault. When previously Rachel was taking responsibility for not being fast or organized. I wonder if one of her problems is the fridge being so far from the galley? The extra time it takes to tun back and forth would start to add up, in my opinion, and put her behind.
Fraser is a little spastic, but those multi-course dinners taking so long were not his fault. If you remember the stews were standing around a lot waiting to take the plates up. Not saying a multi-course dinner is not complicated. But Rachel allowing Sandy to convince herself of this, is kind of a cop out and disappointing that Rachel would fall for this. Sandy clearly is on some sort of Fraser take-down.
Tyler is so cute, he’s a little suzie homemaker, and absolutely excelling at everything he touches. Camille WHO??
Ross is resorting to goofy tactics to crack Katie.
In his yap: “I just need to have sex.”
Like dude, fucking euwwwwww.
Ben is wearing Rachel’s sunglasses. Reason #5 that proves he’s a fucking pussy.
And here we go, Katie just totally gives Gross Ross another pass. This shit’s getting too predictable.
He ends up apologizing to her, but as he previously stated, he just wants to fuck someone. Anyone.
I actually agree with douchey Ben in his yap. “Come on Katie, I just wanna shake ya!” yes, she needs a good old Cher “snap out of it!” slap across the face.
Alissa and Hayley argue over who’s turn it is to do what, in their shared cabin space. Seems like a silly argument, and Alissa is kind of bitchy about it. She is being patronizing and calls her a “gross dirty bitch” as she walks away.
I disagree with Hayley’s assessment in her yap that “maybe Camille wasn’t the problem.” Camille was A problem. It doesn’t have to be one or the other. It’s not a fucking contest as to who is bitchier. You had a bitchy chick that didn’t want to do any fucking work, and tried to get by doing as little as possible, and another bitchy chick that DID her job. So do the math as to who needs to go in this scenario. Although spoiler alert, it’s rumored that Alissa leaves too. It makes sense if you saw previews of a new Stew that Ben had hooked up with.
Why is everyone’s age range such a thing on with these guys?? Alissa comments to herself “you’re like 32 how can you be so nasty?” So she thinks someone that’s a slob at 22 will magically wake up on their 30th birthday and be a neat freak?? Like at age 20ish, or younger even, your personality, and traits are your personality and traits. There’s not a ton of difference between the 20-somethings and the 30-somethings. Camille mumbled too this similar rhetoric when Rachel asked on the radio if she was going to finish her task that she started in the galley. Camille said “you’re 35!!” Okay, and? That has to do how, with the fact she took a break in the middle of washing dishes? It seems like a childish way to rationalize. And we’re age shaming people in their 30’s?? Age shaming seems to be a big thing with this Y or Z or whatever generation. I guess they all wanna pack it in and croak at 29? I don’t know.
Disturbing Sandy and Rachel scene where you can see this is kind of where Rachel started to get sucked in.
Sandy DOES have a point that maybe Fraser is trying to be the nice guy too much and micro-managing somewhat. But he certainly doesn’t need to be thrown under the bus this way. He’s learning. This is his first CS gig, and he’s still finding his way. Thought Sandy was all about these ‘teaching moments’ and encouragement?? Oh wait, that ‘s only the deck crew, and she first has to like you, or have a crush on you. So instead of encouraging Fraser, she’s pinning the chef against him, who it’s imperative that he have a good rapport with.
She is sounding so bitter, and is making some retched faces and gestures. and insisting dinner service has been lacking in timing, and it is 100% Fraser’s fault and HIS problem. It’s his fault that Rachel didn’t have her food prepared on time?? She is clearly after Fraser. Fraser is the new Hannah. Sandy almost seems in the midst of some type of mental issue. She is acting OBSESSED with taking down Fraser. I mean, deliberately trying to turn the chef against the CS, is a little disturbing. You have to admit.
Preference sheet meeting and it’s a one day charter of a girls’ divorce party trip.
Sandy’s attitude has definitely shifted.
She commends Ross “You turned Tony around, I wanna see that in you, turn your people around.” (barking at Fras) Remind me what did Ross have to do with Tony? Was Tony a problem? She wasn’t even on the fucking boat at the start of the season. How the hell would she know? And nothing was wrong with Tony, except from having to learn a few things. “Put the pressure on your team.” she tells him. Okay, settle down there, Hitler.
What is wrong with the interior, again? Aside from nothing since the useless bum is gone??
She’s acting so almost sinister and creepy in this meeting, relishing in intimidating Fraser, What is wrong with her? Real fucking question. This is not how you encourage and motivate people, by saying why can’t you be more like so and so in front of your peers?? So fucked up.
Fraser is understandably shaken. Constructive criticism is okay, but that delivery is important, especially with his co-workers present.
She really does have Rachel completely convinced Fraser is useless. Fraser confides in Hayley, about that disturbing meeting, and Rachel joins and seems to be to be mechanically repeating after Sandy. It’ s so weird, because this is so unlike Rachel. Rachel is not some fucking mean girl who takes pleasure in someone else’s plight., or insecutities. But she does aim to please Sandy knows this, and is weaponizing it, to get her on her ‘Fraser sucks’ team. This just shows you how easily someone like Sandy can manipulate another person’s opinion and behavior.
Rachel is rather harsh in her yap claiming that Sandy was merely issuing constructive criticism, and Fraser is being a baby. No Rachel you’re being a fucking follower and kiss-ass Steford Wife weirdo. Should we just call her Malia?? She tells Fras how dreamy Sandy is, and she just wants the best for all. Whatever. Sandy overhears Alissa calling Sandy a cold robot. Which she is. I just wish she would have said it lower.
Fucking stupid Ben never heard of divorce parties? They’ve been a thing for a while. Why didn’t I do that??
“How bad was the bloke she was with?” Ben inquires.
Why, Ben, probably pretty fucking bad.
The girls arrive. Sandy compares Ross to 007. Who’s the Bond Girl? Certainly not Sandy. Maybe her new lover, Rachel.
I’m going to have a hard time NOT saying anything mean about Sandy now. She done lost my respect. She’s now excessively complimenting the deck crew.
“You guys work fast, I’m proud of you.” Talking to them like they’re four. Sandy, please. You sound phony, and like an asshole.
And since Rachel is all cranked up, and on kind of a power trip, if you will, thanks to Sandy, (and I do think she’s awesome by the way – she’s literally my all-time fave BD chef, it’s killing me to be bitchy about her) she gets overly irritated with Alissa for not putting out ALL of the snacks that Rachel had instructed. She missed the olives and nuts, I think. Normal unbrainwashed Rachel would have nicely asked about it, but THIS Robot Rachel attacks Alissa.
Rachel hisses “INTERIORRRRR” in her yap, as if a great big debacle has just taken place, not just the omission of nuts. I this is what we can expect for the next half hour. Yay. Good job Sandy.
Alissa bitches to Hayley about Rachel in front of the guests, which is NOT good. But I’m taking it back this all the way back to Sandy, sorry, for starting this animosity train and blame game, instead of promoting working like a team.
This is EXACTLY what happens when you create a divide. She not only created a divide between Fraser and Rachel, she created a divide between interior and deck crew. Think I said that already. I’m just reminding you. Keep watching how this all plays out, and you’ll totally see that I am right.
Rachel has now graduated to ridiculing Fraser and calling him “Frasssled.” Nice. Sandy has really turned her into a piece of shit with the snap of her fingers, did she hypnotize her?? I don’t know if he seems ‘frazzled’ but he IS on the move serving the guests. How is this bad? Now it’s a crime to move fast? Fraser stop being in such a hurry !! How dare you! Take your time!
Sandy asks Rachel how lunch went, and Rachel pretends Fraser did something wrong, when lunch service was fine, and the guests didn’t complain about one single thing. Sandy encourages her to bitch at him for no reason whatsoever. I wonder what Fraser is thinking watching this back. Watching Sandy lurk around creeping on Rachel, egging her on to be a bitch for no reason. So disappointed in Rachel. Think I already said that too. I’m reminding you.
Alissa calls her mom to say hello, while working, and for some reason Fraser blows up at her about it.
Sandy again. In addition to what she’s done with Rachel, she convinced Fraser his staff sucks, so now he’s on edge and going to be nit picking at every move. I’m just going to keep pointing out every altercation, and how it’s directly related to how Sandy is running this boat. If you think Sandy has done nothing wrong here, than you might want to stop reading.
I don’t agree that Alissa is acting out because she “got her way” with Camille getting canned, as Fraser claims. I think it’s just the way she is. She’s kind of pissy and sassy too, just like Camille. Again, you had one pissy bitch that does a good job, and one pissy bitch that could not have cared less. I don’t know why it has to be that one is bitchy, and the other one is lovely. They’re both catty!!
Fraser charges at her and says “absolutely no way!” When I first watched it, I was like, what did she do? He clearly isn’t reacting this way over her talking briefly on the phone? I could see if she was constantly on the phone. I can’t help but compare this to what’s her name on Below Deck Med that was texting with her psycho BF all fucking day. We often see them checking in with family while working. Tyler just did it while ironing. But, here we are. That was a catastrophe because tensions are high, becasue of Sandy.
Since Sandy has put Rachel is now in charge of the chief stew, which is so not normal, she gives him shit as to why he’s going to the beach to handle the picnic. Don’t we often see the chief stews going to the beaches to set up or serve the guests? Yes. Have you ever seen an episode before, in the ten years this has been on, where the Captain assigned the Chef to discipline and reprimand the chief stew? Now Rachel just seems to be wanting to hear herself talk to sound important, like “I understand the assignment Captain!”
Who the fuck is she to tell Fras not to go to the beach? She’s not the boss of him!
And while I agree he is doing too much and needs to be better at delegating, it is something he will figure out, and is not being handled correctly. At all. Thanks to Sandy and her Hannah-like vendetta. Or maybe she’s just bored. I don’t know. Rachel keeps preaching this holier than thou advice in her yaps. She suddenly is the expert in the trials and tribulations of being a chief stew. Sandy did that.
We need to get an “I did that!!” Sandy sticker every time there’s turmoil between the departments, and put it on the screen.
Here’s why Rachel’s little talkin to did not make sense, because while Fraser is at the beach, he needs to depend on Alissa to get ready for dinner, so either way, he is still delegating and depending on his staff. I don’t blame him for wanting to be at the beach to make sure that it all goes well. He didn’t attend the other beach picnics and there were issues. True, they had to do with Camille, but still. Rachel made zero fucking sense chastising him for handling the picnic.
Poor Alissa in her yap thinks all the drama is behind her. Girl. If only you knew.
Big huge fucking drama over who’s taking the trash out. Okay fine, yes Alissa could have done it. But Ross and Ben are also just standing there not really busy, and if the deck crew typically, does it, who cares? Like how petty can we be? It takes two minutes.
Sandy is in Rachel’s ear again, unbelievably, dissing Fraser for no goddamned reason. Rachel brags that she talked to him again. This is so bizarre. Rachel just jumped right on this Mean Girl train with Sandy. She insists in her yap, “it’s not about tearing people down, it’s about doing a job and being held accountable.”
But IS IT??
If it’s not about tearing someone down, then why is she adamant about pointing that out? Oh maybe because it IS a tear down!
Rachel brags to Sandy that her delivery is “now not so nice” when it comes to communicating with Fraser.
Okay?? Sandy is encouraging the chef to belittle the chief stew.
Hey Rach, how does Sandy’s asshole taste?
Rachel does realize how strange this is coming off to the viewers, when she had been admitting her shortcomings and being off of her game?
“Continue to have those conversations” is what Sandy keeps ordering, and exerting some sort low key domination over Rachel. Egging her on to blame Fraser, and his department. Rachel has to be feeling that something is not right here. I’m never going to bitch about Captain Lee again.
This is beyond. I’m running out of negative things to say about this, without being repetitive.
Fire dancers arrive to entertain the Girls Trip ladies, and who knew, but Tony was a fire dancer at one time! I don’t even know what to say. Go Tony!!
These guests are ever so easy going and complain about literally nothing. That’s what makes it extra puzzling about Sandy tiptoeing around the boat making Rachel bitch about service. Help me to understand this please.
I didn’t notice this until I saw it on one of my Facebook chat pages, but there is zero table décor on this charter! This conffusion is also addressed by Hannah in that US article, if you decide to read that. Remember how Sandy is usually all about the table décor! I guess because there is that big ass medallion painted on the table, they think they don’t need centerpieces or décor? That was one of the things she kept dogging Hannah about too. And the sparkler candles, and there has since been several occurrences of sparkler candles.
No, this is not “Hot Girl Summer.” And I’ll just leave that there.
Dinner is wrappin up with a little smore bonfire, that’s the coolest thing ever. So, I will need to understand what went wrong with service here and how Fraser and the stews (sounds like a band) are doing such a horrendous job. Again again, and then again, the problem was Rachel’s inability to handle eight courses.. Other chefs have done that many, or more, without it being half an hour wait between courses, so Rachel should like, look in the mirror when trying to dole out the blame.
The ladies are also not a rowdy crowd, and go to bed at 11:30, right after dinner. So this charter could not have gone smoother or been handled better. So let’s see what SandCrab can cook up to yell at Fraser for.
Sandy accolades the deck crew again, when the interior also killed it with this charter. Fraser organized the Fire dancers, the beach picnic went great, all meals went smoothly, there was not one fucking complaint. The big fucking crisis was Alissa forgetting to put nuts out.
Sandy goes so far as to give them special recognition over the radio and calls them the Dream Team. Even new kid, Tyler thinks that’s weird. He doesn’t even know Sandy at this point and notices the favoritism and tense atmosphere she is creating.
Alissa then agrees with him when he says Captains always favor the crew. Alissa says she sucks deck crew dick. Which is funny. Guys, she shouldn’t have given that compliment over the radio like that. It was to drive home her division tactic and to make them feel like shit.
Now she’s after Alissa. This didn’t help.
The boat is docking early due to the wind, but guests will still be departing at the same time.
Fraser is really good with the guests. You can’t take that away from him. He tells the ladies to try to get packed before breakfast, so they can hang and relax, until it’s time to leave. This somehow turns out to be a big big fucking issue with Crabby Sandy. She and Rachel get more and more chummy as the seconds go by.
The guests are happy as clams eating their breakfast, everything is going swimmingly until, wah wah wah ——-Sandy decides to go on a mission to find out why oh WHY is the luggage already getting loaded? This crazy hag was literally just pacing in her cabin ready for a rumble.
She yells at Ross as to why the rush for the luggage?
Sandy radios to not rush the guests off of the boat, and goes into this whole big fucking thing about it, on the radio! Who does that. The radios aren’t for holding fucking meetings. Rachel is with Fraser when this comes through, and says nothing, since that’s her new butt buddy, but she has to see what is going on here. Sandy found her thing to atttack Fraser about. Thank God !!
Fraser finds Sandy, who keeps pronouncing his name wrong, probably on purpose. She goes into this whole ‘rushed off the boat’ thing, when the guests don’t seem to feel the least bit rushed off the fucking boat. They seemed fine packing before breakfast when Fraser suggested that.
Fraser is ticked, and I don’t blame him. When you’re being falsely accused of something, you should defend yourself. And she did that shit on the radio again, trying to make him look bad with his peers. Instead of asking him nicely what the motive was, then he would have answered nicely, and not been so defensive.
When Sandy hears his explanation, and realizes she was wrong, and jumped down his throat for nothing, instead of saying she’s sorry. She just dismisses him, and that gets him more preturbed.
In her yap she calls this making excuses. No he was actually explaining his method to you. It’s not an
excuse, if nothing was done wrong. This bitch has it IN for this kid. I mean holy schmokes!!
She is sticking with the ‘being pushed off the boat’ story. I wonder if any of these lovely ladies are chiming in on SM that they did not feel like this at all. They probably didn’t even know the luggage was being carried off?? What a dick. While these very low maintenace guests are enjoying their 8lovely breakfast, Fraser and Alissa chat about a muffin and have a few bites. Tyler happens to be standing there too.
So Sandy gets her granny panties all in a twist, because Alissa asked for the trash to be taken out over the radio and she could hear them laughing and chatting with one another.
I mean, there’s no laughing in yachting either!! No calling your mom for two minutes, and no laughing! Welcome to Sandy’s prison ship !
She literally leaves her computer and goes charging at Fras and Alissa and orders her bed to be stripped, bitches at them for ‘standing around’ for an entire 30 seconds, and again compliments the deck crew to them. Tyler looks perplexed. This poor kid. He’s probably like, what’s with the old hag? What did I get myself into? Fraser tells her they weren’t standing around and defends his people, as he should. She tells him “stop talking.” Who does that???
Did Sandy not take her menopause meds?? what in the literal fuck is wrong with her? If she’s mad at Alissa for the dick sucking comment, then talk to Alissa. You don’t take it out on the whole team.
I think she needs Hannah’s weed pen. I wonder if she kept it. I know she’s sober, but holy now, Bitch needs to simmer the fuck down.
They briefly show the guests at the end talking to each other, and NOT looking rushed. At all. So she was wrong. But needs to stick with it.
Fraser says he’s never been so sickened by a Captain before.
I second that.
So next week, not to beat a dead horse, now that she has them all pissed off at each other, she decides this is the perf time for a ‘friendly’ competition.
Looks like she still has it in for the stews, and again orders to “stop talking!!”
