Storm stormed off after Nat’s scolding at the dinner table.
Mzi follows him. Yeah Nat was being kind of an asshole. It was no earth shattering issue that he told Courtney she was Lead Deckhand. Love how she keeps calling him ‘dramatic’ when she was the one being overly dramatic about it. It wasn’t any of her business. She had no need to get involved. She’s projecting.
Just another very annoying personality trait that bugs the shit out of me. Someone that behaves a certain way, you react, then they flip THEIR behavior around on you. Sounds so exhausting to be this way. Was she supposed to just sit there with her through dinner after she spoke to him like that. SHe does have a delivery problem. She could have just said something like “I wouldn’t have had that convo here, but okay.” Whatever. So he leaves to do the anchor watch.
Mzi could have spoken up on his behalf to Nat when she said “is it my fault?” Yes! Butt out woman, he should have said. “You’re the one being dramatic.”
Still at the dinner table in the restaurant, Tash is sitting by Dave f course announces that her feet are wet, and Dave offers her his sneakers?? okay so why are your feet ‘wet?’ First off, but you want to put on a dude’s sweaty way too big (I assume) sneakers? He needs to stop catering to her. Now he has no shoes. Why couldn’t she just take a napkin and wipe out her sandals she’s wearing. It’s more fun to lead Dave on, and have him bending over backwards for her I guess, and giving her the ‘shoes off his feet.’
They switch back shoes to go on “to the next spot.”
Tash leaves to go outside and FaceTime the fucking psychopath she calls her ‘boyfriend’ First thing out of her mouth? “I miss you.” She MISSES him??
She misses being accosted, mentally assaulted and sent on a psychologica lroller coaster ride daily, in person, verses over text messaging. I guess that would be more fun, because she does seems to really enjoy it.
For some reason Dave, decides to go out and chase her. Producer must have told him “go see what she’s up to and coax her to come back inside.” (while she’s on the phone with Captain Crazy) It just seems weird that he went to find her. Maybe he just got all excited over their shoe exchange interaction.
She tells him she’s speaking to her dogs . And he keeps telling her “Come dance…” Come be with your friends.” Relax dude I’m sure no one misses her.
Cracra boy of course hears this and tells her “fuck off.”
For some reason she gets all insulted, and in a tizzy about this, when that’s how he speaks to her on the daily. But suddenly, she’s now extremely offended. Kyle chases her. She cries to him “that my ex just told me to fuck off.” So he’s been downgraded to ex again, just like that. ‘Fuck off’ was the magic phrase that pissed her off and made her cry??
Never mind the non stop bullying and psychological manipulation, and bitching at her for working every fucking day, all fucking day. But don’t you dare say “fuck off!!”
Klyle takes the bait and starts telling her how wonderful she is. She doesn’t want anymore men… yeah sure. Again in her yap —- “always had a boyfriend…” yadda yadda yadda.
Yeah we picked up on that during the Dave debacle, stop wasting oxygen repeating yourself and stating the fucking obvious. Most viewers are team NOT Natasha from what I’m seeing on social media.
Nat starts harassing Kyle about his lack of energy and doing just enough to get by, with no sense of urgency whatsoever. This is what’s pissing her off.
They do treat Nat like their bitch, and she’s beneath them. Anyone not seeing that must have never had a job in a ‘team’ type environmnet.
Jason is officially off the boat. Thought he already left, forgot about him already. He claims in his yap his demise was due to the other three being friends and him being ‘an outsider.’
While true with the “three friends.” They are. He made himself the outsider with his constant moaning and groaning, arguing, and correcting everyone. These ‘three friends’ are three of the most down to earth non judgmental easy going people I’ve seen on Below Deck, or even in real life, so it shouldn’t have been hard to fit in. People like that don’t want a miserable person around.
Repeat guests. I don’t recall them. Must have missed this episode. If it was 2020/early 2021 my ex had a tantrum when I wanted to watch Bravo, so I missed a lot of shows.
Sounds like they’re a bunch of fucking freaks. Yeah pretty sure I would have remembered this.
So new deckhand is small town American, from Alabama. He’s almost as difficult to understand as the Brits. I didn’t follow what he just said about graduating from the University of Alabama though. He seems really wholesome. Not sure how he’s going to take out there, in your face, European Courtney. Either will be intrigued, or offended.
Nat and Storm discuss the dinner argument. She blames their quarrels on being out and drinking. I didn’t think either one of them were even drunk, but whatever. It’s more like that’s when they’re actually spending time together, and interacting, so he sees how bitchy she is, and they’re both dramatic, just in different ways.
Provisions arrive and as usual Tash orders way too much shit, and there’s nowhere to even put it.
I don’t mean to sound like I think it’s 1950 or anything, but I really don’t get why Kyle, you know being a big fucking dude, and all, and we don’t always have a dude as a stew, can’t volunteer his dudeness and largeness, to help lug heavy shit on the boat. Same with the equipment with the performer. He’s fucking lazy.
Nat is right. He knows damned fucking well provisions are needing unloaded, and he’s leisurely setting the fucking table. If he wasn’t lazy, and had some class, and wasn’t a fucking pussy, he would say “Nat I’ll help load these 50 lb boxes, (since they’re half her body weight) if you want to set the table.” Or Tash should have the brains to delegate this way.
She is perfectly capable of setting the table. If Tash was a real leader, and not buddy buddy with Kyle, she would request that Kyle help with provision unloading instead of Nat.
Tash on the radio – “if anyone is free to help, we’ve got more provisions on the dock.” I think that was a subtle hint for Kyle to help. Why she couldn’t say “Kyle can you help with provisions please?” is beyond me.
Kyle doesn’t move, and is setting the table slower than I’ve ever seen anyone set a fucking table. I feel like she was addressing him because everyone else seems to be helping, and trying to figure out where to put this shit.
Doesn’t the chief stew have any type of cap on ordering the alcohol? Seems like she’s pretty liberal with the yacht credit card.
Nat bitches at Kyle, who obviously is just meandering around and milking the shit out of ‘setting the table.’ (guests aren’t even on board yet)
Reid says in his yap he’s really good at shoving his foot in his mouth when just trying to fit in or crack a joke. So another Jason?? Just a less obnoxious, wholesome version.
Kyle is stilllllll setting the fucking table and Nat looks like she burned about 1000 calories running around, and asks that he help carry laundry bags onto the boat. He ignores her and pretends to rearrange the silverware on the table.
Nat is now full on pissed, and is unloading on Tash telling her she needs to delegate. Nat is doing everything while Kyle does nothing, and she does nothing about it. Yes she’s speaking to her disrespectfully, and her delivery isn’t great, because she’s pissed. But she’s right.
Nat points out there’s they don’t know what to do with everything since she ordered six cases of everything. Tash really has no defense, that’s why she keeps telling her to not speak to her disrespectfully. If she had any defense to what Nat is accusing her of doing, and not doing, wouldn’t she speak up?
If she thought Nat was wrong wouldn’t she surely be pointing that out??
Dave thinks this is quite entertaining. Which it is. What makes it extra entertaining for we American folks, is listening to people yell at each other in English accents. I’m not sure why, it just is.
Kyle calls her a ticking time bomb. No dude you are NOT helping. A fucking big ass dude would make putting all of this shit away, and on the boat go such much faster! She overhears Kyle and Tash gossiping about her, and tells Tash to talk directly to her.
She’s not making Tash look bad at her job. She IS bad at her job. She’s clearly favoring Kyle, and tip toeing around him, and giving him no instructions, as Nat picks up the slack.
Guests are arriving and Sandy compliments that the boat looks pristine. Did she check out that table that Kyle spent all morning setting?? And it’s not like it was any elaborate table setting. At all.
Theses guests with the dominatrix, and whatever else they have up their sleeves arrive, and all being taken on the tour. They’re wasting no time. Guest talks about having an orgasm on the fancy toilet that cleans and dries all of your parts after you go.
So apparently there will be a ‘BDSM party’ aboard the boat. I had no idea what that was and just googled it. I should have NOT used google. Now I’m sure they have that in their tracking, that I looked up sex parties. Great. BDSM stands for (bondage, discipline, submission, masochism) So ‘50 Shades of Grey’ type activity.
I know they’re all about pleasing the guests and doing what whatever they ask, but it’s kind of surprising they allow them to walk around totally naked. Poor Storm, well okay not poor Storm, but you know what I mean. He has to stand there and witness this while staying professional, and trying to not look. I don’t think they would care if he stared and ogled them, but he feels like he shouldn’t.
So these two ho’s completely strip down and want to get up on these chairs, totally naked, right in front of him, and he has to help them up. Sandy is obviously NOT minding this, at all. Can you see this shit with Captain Stubing?? I don’t know if he would be allowing it.
The guests are going to the beach, Nat is going to be the chaperone for the affair. She takes the offer of going to the beach to get off the boat and away from The Bobsy Twins, but points out they’ll be on the boat without the guests and nothing to do.
Kyle is to clean the ‘clean freak’ guest’s room while she’s gone.
The problem with Kyle and Tash is they’re too friendly with each other. Tash is more worried about being besties with him, rather than his boss, and they work with no fucking sense of urgency whatsoever, because they forget they’re at work, and act like they’re just socializing.
The crew takes them on a beach and hiking area where they’re going to “be getting some great nudes.” (photos)
I cannot believe they’re really walking up this mountain. It almost looks straight up and down. None of them strike me as the ‘hiking’ type.
Poor Alabama boy Reid doesn’t know what to do as they’re taking their ‘nudes’ of the girls. He’s like should I look should I not look??
So Nat is kind of having a lull in her ‘duties’ at the beach when the table setup is finished, and the exhibitionists are still ‘hiking’ (why is that chick crawling down the mountain like a crab) which is fine with me, since she busts her ass on the boat constantly, just not sure I would not have opted to strip down and get into the water when I knew guests would be returning any minute… She even gets her hair wet. Like didn’t she think anyone would notice her hair and shirt was wet? And is that a bathing suit she has on under her uniform? So many questions.
She tells the guest she had to “go to the bathroom.” Maybe that was her initial motivation. I absolutely cannot pee in the water like that. I tried once and I just couldn’t do it. It wouldn’t come out. And it’s gross. Who wants piss all over their bathing suit?? I think she just wanted to frolic in the water, anyway.
Dave asks Tash what she’s going to do about Nat. She says something about moving forward not living in the past. She’s not anxious to bring the confronation up with her, because she knows Nat is right and is making valid points.
We see what Reid was talking about with his dorky jokes as he tries to m ake a joke to the guests about “rearing to go…”
Nat returns looking refreshed, which is nice to see. Some good old Vitamin D, and a quick little dip has lifted her spirits somewhat.
However it doesn’t last long when Kyle informs her he didn’t clean the VIP room yet. He says “she doesn’t care, she hasn’t said anything.” So not the point. The point is that it still needs done, and it didn’t get done because he works at a snail’s fucking pace. And she probably is annoyed about it, she just didn’t want to say that because she didn’t want to sound like an asshole. Probably didn’t want him to spit in her drink. (another reason for guests not to be dicks to the stews, they do have access to their toothbrushes, the could do a Lala from Vanderpump)
“It is what it is, time limitations.” Well yeah dude, ya ‘run out of time’ when if you moved any slower, you’d be dead!!
Again where Tash is lacking in her chief stew duties. She need to have made sure that it was done, either by her or Kyle. And why does this chick’s room look like a bomb went off in it? What’s with the clothes everywhere if she walks around naked all day??
And they literally just got here. Is it necessary to throw your shit around and be a fucking slob just because you know someone else will be dealing with it? It’s just taking advantage and being an asshole.
And isn’t it common fucking sense when you know you have only three people that are to be serving your every whim, AND cleaning up after your dumb sloppy ass, that is going to take away from your time getting your drinks and other service?
Not to mention, if I had to interact all day and night with the same people that are ‘cleaning my cabin’ I would be embarrassed to keep my room like a fucking pigsty.
Naturally Nat is pissed. “I hope your balls fill up and pop.” I might have to steal that line. I’m thinking of someone right now who I also hope his balls fill up and pop. Guess that would hurt.
Slightly off subject for one second,. Can we stop advertising ‘Halloween’ on Bravo already? It looks utterly ridiculous, even though they don’t even feature Kyle (Richards) in the previews. Who would spend two fucking cents going to see this movie?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen any of the Halloweens. And I don’t think I’m missing much. It would be fun maybe to just see the Kyle Richards clips to laugh at what a terrible actress she is.
Okay back to BDM. One thing about Nat is that she gets over shit fast. She has no problem goofing around with Kyle and Nat after she tells them how much they suck.
Speaking of balls, I wish Dave would have some and stop slobbering all over Tash. It’s embarrassing.
Maybe he should go after Nat now since she and Storm have ‘broken up.’ Nat and Tash are basically the same person looks wise, same hair color, eye color, height, size, except Nat’s personality is a little better. She would probably hurt his precious little feelings too, though like she does Storm, It would make Tash go nuts though. He needs to hook up with one of these chicks before the season is over! Stop being a pussy !!!
Reid talks about how he lost 20 pounds, Nat says “what’s pounds??” As if she never heard the word, and doesn’t even know it’s the American unit of weight measurement?? So does every other country in the world use the metric system except the US?
In grade school we had to learn it because, we were supposedly “going to be converting.” What ever happened to that?? I don’t want to tell you how long ago that even was, and he we still are, not using it. Other than the terms, I remember next to nothing about the actual measurements. I think metric units are smaller than ours. I think.
Probably same thing as the world coming to an end ten years ago because of global warming, and all the computers crashing, ending society as we know it, at the stroke of midnight on 1/1/2000.
So Kyle decides he needs to apologize to this ‘meticulous’ guest (if she was such a clean freak she wouldn’t leave her cabin like that to begin, just sayin) on Nat’s behalf that her cabin wasn’t yet cleaned.
He refers to her as “head of housekeeping” and it wasn’t done because she was at the beach with them.
Nat overhears this and is quite perturbed and insulted at being referred to as the ‘head of housekeeping.’ Even though it’s ‘head of’ something, it demonstrates what I was saying, how they treat her like this second class citizen, as if he is above cleaning a cabin.
And she’s not even ‘third’ they’re both seconds. What was he thinking saying that??
Nat gives him the fucking business about it, which he deserves. His excuse is “you didn’t hear the full story.” It doesn’t matter, if she didn’t hear the entire convo, just the sheer idea that he would refer to her that way, making it seem like he doesn’t stoop to “cleaning cabins” is off the charts demeaning, not to mention a lie.
He continues to rant about not coming for him and whatever he’s saying. His defense sounds a lot like Natasha’s, in the way that he doesn’t have one, so he’s spewing nonsense.
Don’t say dumb LIES to the guests mate!!
Also even as he was telling this guest complete BULLSHIT, he was literally just STANDING there. She should have been like, “looks like you’re not busy right now, hop to it!”
