Below Deck SY 2/21/22

From the previews, I see a lot of falling, just like last season’s Below Deck Med. Also in the previews, what was with that chick carrying the glasses of champagne on the trays? She loses balance and drops one, then turns around really, really fast, as if they’re not all going to come crashing down? Simple physics. Not a science nerd I see.

New chef, and he seems to know what he’s doing and pretty confident. Captain Glenn, Daisy, Gary and Collin are back. Let’s just say I like Glenn, Daisy and Collin.

The boat is located in Menorca, Spain, and as usual, it looks like a paradise.

All right – here we go — The crew is arriving !!!

Gary and Daisy had their differences last season, so this should be interesting. Marcos the chef is caaaaaa –ute. Italian Venezuelan. Are you kidding me ??

Stews and girl deckhand, Gabriella, Ashley and Kelsie are cute. I mean, are there ever ugly people on here ? Ashley’s got herself some knockers. Jesus.

New deckhand, Tom says how hard can the sailing yacht part be, as opposed to motor yachts. As a veteran viewer of Below Deck and Sailing Yacht, very different. Because there’s the pesky sails that seem to need fussed with.

Glenn is so cool. And kinda cute. Not Marcos cute, different kind of cute. Kelsie, the deckhand is sort of impressive to me. She runs her own boat, (she says) and is totally in charge of the guests and handling the boat. This is her first “super yacht.”

Daisy sits down with Marcos. He name drops some celebs he’s cooked for. That’s okay, still like him.

And the cleaning and organizing begins. I am always exhausted just watching this. The two stews have similar experience levels. Hopefully not a cat fight as to who is 2^nd and 3^rd stew.

Meeting with Daisy and the stews about their roles. So this will be a cat fight. Daisy says that Gabriella seems to have more bartending experience, so she makes her 2^nd stew. (she’s 33?) Does she miss Ashley repeating “same, same, same” when pointing out her past experience? Would it be the end of the world as we know it, if there was no ‘2^nd or 3^rd’ stew? Maybe two 2nds?

So the “getting to know each other” (drinking) evening begins. Gary complains to Gabriella about the glass he was given for his beer.

Gary, Collin and Daisy have a pow wow which quickly turns into who is going to be banging whom, which we know always happens. This may be the first time it was discussed like this. Gary says Tom likes Ashley, and Daisy tells him that she likes him also. So they’re playing matchmakers now? Are we looking for another Bravo baby ? Gary pretends to make out with Daisy.

I kind of get the feeling that Daisy chose Gabriella as 2^nd stew because she’s older, and closer to her age. Maybe not.

Ashley very boldly charges into the cabin where Gary and Tom are, and tells them she’s ‘interested’ in both of them. Tom is her type looks-wise, and Gary is more her age range she goes for, she says. Tom puts on his ‘Risky Business’ sunglasses. No dude, you’re not THAT Tom.

I feel like this is a ‘Below Deck” first. Isn’t it? Usually the hook-ups happen kind of organically, such as when they have a drunken night out, and a certain two happen to start making out in the van. Maybe it was planned by one of the parties, but usually it’s kind of unspoken. But hey, this bitch doesn’t mess around. No time to waste. She charges in the cabin, and what these two dudes hear is this:

“I am going to be fucking one of you, most likely. Possibly both of you.” After seeing previews, I think this is what happens.

She even helps him make his bed. What a ho. Girl has no shame. Came out of her shell ? What shell? Was she even drinking? She wants to “have a chat” with Gary in private.

Tom is guzzling the drinks trying to look like Captain Cool. But he’s going to be Captain Puking.

Ashley continues to be super forward and begs Gary to kiss her. Which she didn’t have to do for very long. She is embarrassing my gender. Christ, let him work for it, a little. Damn!!

Tom says he feels “a bit weird” and is going to bed. Feel sorry on the Sailing Yachts for the poor dude that has to share with the Captain. He’s not like Captain Stubing on the “motor yacht” with his whole damn suite to himself.

Poor Tom crawls in bed, and soon has to inform Glenn he’s sick, and proceeds to the toilet to puke. Glenn continues to read and seems disinterested in his plight. He leaves the cabin to sleep elsewhere, which is in the kitchen mess.

Daisy is chugging right from the bottle. She is going to end up in the ‘same boat.’ Glenn charges up where the others are still partying with no end in sight, and orders everyone to bed.

He is 100% correct to do this, at this point. They need to grow up. Daisy asks if they “can finish their beers” as they were guzzling straight hard alcohol right from the bottle. Glenn says no.

Gary is as puzzled as we all are, as to why a girls immediately are falling all over him. He’s right, he wasn’t even flirting with her! Last season he had two chicks damn near killing each other over him! Is it the man bun ??

I guess we can look on the bright side, that it was a stew that he almost hooked up with him, and not a deckhand, making for a less messier sitch. But this IS only the first episode.

Love how Tom’s puking issue, became that he “puked all over the Captain.” He tells him to clean up the bathroom stat. Feel like he should have seen the bathroom by this point, and cleaned it up before being asked to.

Gary and Tom talk about Ashley like two dudes discussing who’s getting the check. “No you have her, no YOU have her …”

Guests arrive. Appetizers look fucking bangin !!!! Marcos seems like (so far) the boy version of Rachel. Handing off these amazing dishes, as if it was no big deal, and he just made a pb&j.

Ashley says in her interview, “there’s something about Gary, that she thinks makes him great in bed. Hopefully it doesn’t come back to bite her in the ass.” Hmmm wonder if she’s into that?

Ashley’s goin in hard for this dude. I’m almost embarrassed for her. So much for hard to get. She ain’t got time for none of that nonsense!

Kelsie multi tasks and flosses with her hair while on deck. Ya know I have heard of this. I just assumed you pulled it out of your head first. So you’re not walking around with chewed food goo, in your hair. But, to each her own.

Marco is kill – in it !!! one of the guests is still hungry. He whips up this beautiful shrimp.

Then the others decide they want more also. Ladies, you have to give your brain time to tell your stomach it’s full! Oh well, he doesn’t break a sweat. And now they’re having dessert! Hoping they are now full.

Gary is doing dishes, and not cryin like a bitch about it. Of course he does have a stew throwing herself at him, also in the galley.

Gabriella has one of the guests telling her she’s cute and sexy, and shares that he has a little dick. That’s a turn-on.

She tries to politely get rid of him. He’s NOT getting the message. He continues to try to chat her up, and wants to know who she likes on the boat, and what exactly she does with women.

Previews are showing a lot multiple cross over hook-ups. Daisy and Gary?

Hoping she was extremely drunk. YUCK. Girl you know better than that !!
