Previously on "Below Deck"...
-Hello. -Hi, how are you?
I'm Francesca.
We've got new chef, new chief stew, new everything.
Well, maybe not everything.
[chuckles]
Yeah. Here I am again.
Oh, she's beautiful.
I'm going to tell you now, I'm relatively new to yachting.
Okay.
I'm going to be screwed with this one.
Oh sh--, son of a bitch.
My ribs are killing me.
Feel like I've been beaten with a ball bat.
That ----ing hurt.
Charter number one.
I've had Charley on board, this will be the third time.
Primary wants an international themed dinner service
on the first night.
He's high maintenance.
Go into bitch mode, because they need to learn.
I'm going to give you guys a hand.
You go get the sunscreen for Ashley, I'll make the drinks.
-Yep. -Okay.
-Perfect, okay. -Good.
We really need to step up our game, hey?
Normally when I join a boat, I rip that thing apart,
and I make it my own.
But right now, I just don't have the time for it,
I have to hit the ground running.
Where is anything?
Captain Lee, do you have a second?
My grandma's not doing to well,
she may not make it like, through the night.
Unfortunately, I'm going to have to leave,
like as soon as possible.
Last thing I would ever want to do is leave,
but it was a decision I had to make.
Poor kid.
[ship horn]
How are you doing, Eddie?
Pissed off.
Do you guys know about Avery, I guess?
-Yeah. -Yeah.
Um, it's a bummer.
How are you doing?
I've got an issue here. I need a new deck hand.
Already this early in the season, we're shorthanded,
and our most experienced guy.
We're just going to have to really pick it up.
-Boom. -What?
-I said boom. -Boom?
Boom.
Oh God.
Avery was my best guy, I mean,
he knew exactly what he was doing,
we worked really well together,
so the work load has increased on me about tenfold.
I'm ready to step up, just tell me what to do, and I'll do it.
Okay.
Alrighty, thanks a lot. Bye.
Um, Izzy?
Hey Izzy, let's pick up the pace.
Yeah.
Um, just have absolutely no room.
This is so crazy.
-Hi. -How you doing?
It was an interesting day.
normally we have rocky seas,
This time it was just rocky service.
Hmm, we'll get it ironed out for you.
Thank you.
-Rachel, can't wait for tonight. -I'm excited, too.
We still don't know if you can pull it off, but go for it.
Francesca, I gave her the list of
the different countries that we're dressing in.
You want all different countries.
Yeah, like, the more you can represent, the better.
-You'll figure it out. -These guests, they're crazy.
They want a tasting menu the first night
from different nations.
Plus, you've got vegan, keto, I am like, okay, I can do this.
I really enjoy it.
[speaks Spanish]
Good job, though.
Such a nightmare.
You guys pulling the jet skis in?
Somebody can set up the harness?
All right, I'll do it.
-Boom! -Boom?
-Boom. -Boom.
Okay, go grab that hose.
You're going to clip it.
Go bow in again. That's an air hose.
I need you to get that water hose.
That's a ----ing air hose!
Like three bears trying to [bleep] a football.
Not in my wildest nightmares would I have imagined
this is the way the season was going to start.
So I want to make sure you're prepared for the night.
Yeah, I think so.
High maintenance charter guests.
I just want a place where we can, like, you know,
really deck it out, like, international.
Yeah, yeah.
We like for the crew to participate too.
Challenge accepted.
I'm done doing your job.
No crew, injured captain, man down, perfect storm.
Worse first day ever.
We don't pull it together, it's going to be ugly.
Day one, already a man down.
Y'all ready about to be a ----ing bosun down, too.
All crew, I need everyone in the wheelhouse, immediately.
Does not sound good. Copy.
We're coming up now.
-Hey. -Hi.
Everybody's here.
Unfortunately, Avery's grandmother is ill,
so we lost a crew member.
That means we're shorthanded.
I'll get somebody in here as quick as I can.
I know that these guests are demanding.
We're just going to have to suck it up and get through it.
I know you can.
Okay?
So, let's get back at it.
Thank you.
Oh, God.
Well, it was nice to see at least he thinks
we're doing a good job.
I need to know about, more about James.
I know.
I feel like I've been very clear about my intentions.
This is what I'm going to do.
I'm going to ask all the guys,
be like, hey, tomorrow's our girlfriend's birthday.
We need one of you to wear a speedo.
Who's going to be up for the task?
And make it like she really wants it.
No, I'm going to be like, I really want it.
I really want it for her birthday.
[laughing]
All right, y'all come to our room
and we'll pick out costumes, come on.
Jamaican curry.
I'm finding it difficult to lean on Izzy a little bit,
let's just try and nail this dinner together.
We all three need to be more of a team.
It's challenging.
I'm taking a lot on, I can't have another thing
to think about.
They want a cocktail for each different country.
Okay. What time's dinner?
8:30.
Wait, why do you guys have all of your stuff hung up
and sh--?
-They didn't unpack your bags? -No, my stuff is all in my bags.
I'll be right back.
Hey babe, really quick, remember the conversation
we had about luggage and stuff?
Yes.
So, ours got unpacked, which is awesome.
Okay, great.
But the other guests, their stuff
is all still in their luggage.
My bag is still sitting on my bed.
That part's a little bit behind.
Okay.
There is so much going on and I don't have enough
hands to be able to have three stewardess hats on right now.
-Day one, having fun-- -Okay.
Day two, it's on you.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm really getting pissed off
that he's saying that he keeps doing my job.
Plus he keeps pulling me away from my job.
But the word "no" does not exist in yachting,
you just got to make it happen.
None of the other cabins were unpacked.
It's definitely a preference thing.
Yeah.
-Yeah, exactly. -Yep.
I need you to go unpack all their stuff, put them away.
Yeah.
Shane and James, can you guys clean up the laz please?
Copy that.
One, two, three.
[grunting]
Yeah.
Mate, you said you had it.
This job was meant to be fun,
but now we're a man down, which is literally my idea of hell.
So now that becomes less fun and more work.
Hate my life.
Don't we miss Avery?
What about like, some of this stuff?
We could do those for Japan, cherry blossoms.
Perfect.
Unbelievable.
Like, who the [bleep] bring 5,000 pieces of clothing
for a three-day charter?
Like, how many times are you planning to sh--
your pants, mate, like no?
[groaning]
I much prefer like, throwing lines,
and dealing with heavy machinery.
I really want to go outside!
How you doing, kiddo?
All right.
So I know you've just lost a deck hand.
Mm-hmm.
And I was wondering if it's possible,
if I could maybe work on deck,
and then you find a stew to replace me.
How about I take it under consideration
and I'll let you know.
Yeah, yeah, that would be really good.
-Does that work for you? -Yeah.
We're just into this charter a few hours
and now she's telling me she wants to switch
from interior to the deck department.
I realize I'm down a deckhand,
but first we have to get through this charter in one piece.
Holy sh--, how long is this thing?
It's all the countries there are.
Let's do glitter, who wants glitter?
Okay, we need cutlery as well.
These guests are like, over the top,
and I'm running on two hours sleep,
and I hadn't sat down all day.
However, theme parties and events.
I love that, that's my background.
I've served Brad Pitt, Eminem, Paris Hilton, Chelsea Handler.
I can handle Charley. We've got this.
Okay, we have 15 minutes.
Izzy, Izzy, Francesca.
Got to pick up the pace girl.
Still unpacking, there's quite a lot of clothes.
So how you do an Australian accent...
You take the phrase cheese fries, please,
and change all the E's to A's and you just go
"cheese fries please."
Cheese fries please.
Pretty cool. Outstanding, thank you.
-Looks good. -Cool.
All right, let's go change into our blacks.
Last call for glitter.
Ooh, ooh.
I'm going to be a geisha.
Hey, is there anybody available tonight
to help me a little bit with my dishes?
Yeah.
James, James, Eddie.
Check the hot tub, make sure everything's buttoned up.
Copy that.
Shane, you can help the girls out.
Copy.
How may I help you?
Elizabeth is going to be here making drinks for guests.
You can be like her right-hand man.
Definitely.
All right, everybody sit down at your respective countries.
What are you making?
These are, um, edamame gyoza
done with garlic, porcini mushroom.
Sounds lovely.
I became a chef on yachts because of Anthony Bourdain.
I have travelled all over the world,
and I studied so many different cuisines.
Lebanese, Russian, Brazilian, Japanese.
Five minutes to poach them and then plate.
I love when you actually understand the crux
of what the cuisine is.
Oh, I'm so stoked about this.
Oh my God, this smells really good.
Oh, it does smell good.
Go ahead.
Let me check on those.
These are ready to go, they're about to get cold.
-Do you need service? -Yeah.
Interior crew, interior crew, Chef's requesting service.
IZZY: I've still got about three bags to do.
[groans]
Going as fast as I possibly can.
What's going on right now?
I know.
Their food is sitting there,
wasting away, wilting, becoming cold.
Can I have some bread?
Chef's requesting service.
I need the captain's pants.
-I need, like, food. -What the hell?
Coming up...
It's just, I'm tired.
Holy sh--.
Interior crew, interior crew, chef's requesting service.
I'm ----ing starving.
They're all sitting down at the table.
Izzy, Captain Lee's pants.
-Yeah. -Black.
-Yeah. -And he needs them ASAP.
-Just need a green apple slice. -I can do that.
I just want, I need like, food.
So I am ready when you are.
These are right here, they're ready, they're already plated.
Da-ta-da, the first dish!
Wow, ooh!
It looks great.
You have an edamame porcini mushroom and truffle gyozas
and then for the soy intolerant,
it's done with just the porcini mushrooms and garlic.
Oh.
You prepared international with taking
all the dietary restrictions into account.
[cheering]
[speaking Japanese]
-All right. -Thank you.
Dig in, y'all.
This is really good, babe.
I have pants for you.
-Thank you. -Thanks.
Mental support over here.
Thanks.
Oh my God, you are so good at this.
This is a German mule.
There's ginger beer, bourbon, and elderflower.
-She knows her drinks. -This is delicious.
-You like it? -Yeah, I do.
Oh, thank you.
That's cool, you guys.
Good job, good job, good job.
Woo!
That was a success.
Francesca, will you take a picture of us?
I'm just, I'll be right back, sorry.
All of these plates are dirty.
Izzy, Francesca, let's go in the galley for service, please.
This is a kamikaze.
Shane.
In Japanese, it means divine wind.
Well done.
What are you doing, come here!
What the [bleep] is he?
Come here.
Shane, come here.
God damn, how many times I got to say it?
What are you doing?
I'm presenting the drinks with her.
You're a deck hand.
You go up there and like, do dishes,
help out, stuff like that.
But we're behind the scenes.
-Okay. -Okay.
-Francesca, Francesca. -That's it?
-That's it. -Okay.
Get it together.
Desk crew is another word for behind the house,
we are not front line.
Don't get carried away making drinks with Elizabeth.
Do what you were hired for.
I can't present with you anymore.
It's been really helpful to have you with me, so...
Thank you.
-What course are you up to? -Chimichurri.
I mean, come on.
She hasn't even started freaking turn downs.
Francesca, Francesca, Izzy.
Did any of you hear that?
No.
I have so much on my plate, I really can't take on
another stewardess responsibility.
Elizabeth, Elizabeth, can you please come to the master?
Copy for that.
Right, that's dead.
Francesca, Francesca, Rachel.
Francesca, she's kind of spread out all over the place,
which is kind of frustrating because it affects me.
It's like herding ----ing cats.
It's ready to roll, I'm ready.
Interior crew, interior crew, chef's requesting service.
I'm getting sleepy already, it's time for a nap.
Sorry, I'm just getting pulled in every single direction.
-It's 10:00. -It's 10?
I'm going to pass out.
I have to go and just check on service.
Yep.
We need to go with these right now.
-Sorry. -The next dish is coming.
Yay. Thank you.
We have a Brazilian style churrasco, with chimichurri.
-Brazil, brazil! -That's really good.
Just side note, your boobs look amazing.
This is Hansel and this is Gretel.
Bounce it, bounce it. Nice.
This is really good.
I'm going straight into desserts now.
God damn.
Covered, covered, covered.
James, James, Eddie.
Do you want to go now and get up early?
-6:30. -Copy that.
Can you go down and do the cabins, now?
Yep.
-Three espresso martinis. -Three, yes.
I need you go to up and make three espresso martinis.
-Yeah. -Yep.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah -Yeah, cool.
Thank you.
It's taking so long.
It's actually taking as long as the real parade of nations.
Nothing was served hot.
They're like, super understaffed.
There's something going on.
-Do you need any help? -Just plating now.
We're not complaining, we legit want to help you, because we can
tell that like, you've had the longest day ever.
The food is still amazing, but you are so tired.
Look, I can do this.
[laughing]
I've never in 14 years had a guest come in
and tell me that I am exhausted and that they need to help me.
I'm not even kidding, I just like, I need to help you
right now, because I can tell that you have had a day.
Oh, I'm here to help, babe.
No, you're not.
What am I presenting?
Dehydrated raspberries with passionfruit pearls,
and a keto chocolate cake.
-Oh my God. -Hi.
This was my choice, I'm helping.
-For what? -Cause I can just--
No, I can just tell how tired you guys are
and I just want to help out.
Oh, no, don't be silly, I really don't--
I mean, it, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I made her do it.
I wanted to try because it's
because it's actually kind of fun.
I've never had a worse day than this
in my whole yachting career.
And I'm gutted and I'm heartbroken.
That girl needs sleep.
I'm not even kidding you, I'm going to put her to bed.
You want to make a good impression and I feel like
that's really not happening right now.
Yeah, it sucks.
It really does suck.
So much to do and it's so unorganized.
Yeah, let's take the plates, you guys.
Here you go, honey.
You guys go to bed, we're going to go to bed, too.
Sweet.
[grunting]
So yeah, right around the mast there.
Okay.
Oh God.
----ing hell.
We'll see you tomorrow.
All right, yeah, see you tomorrow.
For the new day.
Another fun day.
I was Transylvania for my country, so.
[laughing]
That's so clever!
Oh my goodness gracious, what a night.
So how did the rest of the service go?
I think that there's some issues with service.
I think she has to supervise the girls more than normal.
[crying]
I appreciate all your efforts.
Thank you, too, I do.
[sobbing]
Francesca, could you come to the bridge?
Hi, how are you?
What is your assessment of your first day?
Um, it was hard, yeah.
I just don't have the time.
I get it.
I haven't cracked today at all, and I'm just tired, but...
I've got my chief stew, first day,
sobbing uncontrollably.
Yeah.
Holy sh--.
It's just, I'm tired.
There's no crying in yachting.
Um...
I haven't cracked today at all, and I'm just tired.
I just want to be on point, you know?
I understand.
We will get through it.
Charley is just difficult.
-Yeah. -What can I do to help you?
Um, more people.
We don't have beds for more people,
and I'm not sharing mine.
Oh no, that's fine.
[laughing]
You need to get some rest this evening
and we'll go at it again tomorrow.
-Okay. -And we'll do better.
Sounds good.
Thanks for the support.
Yeah, not a problem.
-All right, goodnight. -Goodnight.
Phew.
[sobbing]
If you're all done in here, go to bed.
You get up 7:00-7:30, you should be good.
Good night.
Hey, what temperature do you like in the room?
[bleep].
That's how it's going to be. Ice cold.
[sobbing]
[alarm beeping]
I'm like, I can't even stand.
Sorry.
I'm excited.
Yesterday was the worst day ever.
A part of me is like, really disappointed,
because as a chief stew, you need to always
hold it together and be strong for the crew.
I just need to pull it back, focus,
and remember that I've been in this industry
for the last five years.
I'm not really afraid of anything
or I'm not the one to give up.
Day two, Francesca 2.0.
I can totally do this.
Okay.
-Good morning. -Good morning, how are you?
A new day.
Oh sh--.
I was rolling all over that ----ing bed last night,
my ribs took a beating.
Yeah, you seem like you're a little sore today.
They are sore today.
-How are you? -Did you get some rest?
-I did. -Okay, that makes me happy.
Yes.
Uno, dos, tres.
Antigua!
Uh, oh my God, there's sh-- everywhere.
Coming on late, it was hit the ground running,
which is a recipe for disaster.
Son of a bitch.
The galley is not well organized.
I don't know where things are allocated.
I can work and roll with it for right now,
but uh, it's completely stressful.
I'm super anal retentive, I can't help it.
Francesca, Francesca, Rachel,
just start taking breakfast orders.
Okay, no problem.
-Eddie, Lee. -Yeah, go ahead.
I want to start pulling dock.
All right, Cap, we're ready to heave.
Pull it up.
Anchor's home.
We're out of here.
I'm going to take a breakfast order.
Lemurs first.
I'll have a banana pancake.
Scrambled eggs and some vegetables in there.
Also some eggs over hard.
Banana nut pancakes.
I'm going to do an omelet:
cheese, sausage, broccoli,
spinach, mushrooms, cilantro, green onion.
Himalayan salt, pepper, and some brie, or hard parm.
I hate these guests.
Avocado toast.
Some sort of like, keto toast.
Like, I'm not in a freaking diner, right now.
There's only one chef back there.
Avocado toast, definitely not on keto toast.
-Okay, fantastic. -Thank you.
Oh my God.
Ooh, doggy!
Watch out.
Alrighty then.
I have the order when you're ready.
Keto toast. A lot of avocado toast.
Everyone wants avo.
Banana pancakes with the nuts inside.
And then the other one doesn't nuts.
Got it.
Then omelet, sausages, broccoli,
peppers, red onion,
an omelet, spinach, mushrooms, green onions, brie, sausages.
-Brie? -Yeah.
It's just there's so many different things
-in all the omelets. -Yeah.
What the [bleep]?
[bleep].
Woo, a little windy out here today isn't it?
Yes, it is.
Just wanted to come out and talk to you about
what you guys want to do this afternoon.
Something maybe on the beach.
-Beach is very possible. -If possible.
Yeah.
Oh, tell James he needs to talk a bit more.
Want to put him in swim gear for you.
Oh my God.
All right y'all.
Again, I'll talk to you later, okay?
----er.
They all order omelets, and I don't have the pans.
These pans are like 12-inch pans.
I'm screwed.
Did anyone see the beach, right ahead?
It's stunning.
Wow, that is gorgeous.
[bleep] you.
Eddie, let's get ready to drop the hook.
Copy that.
Okay, these are going to Ashley and Carlos.
-Can you hear me? -Yeah.
-Three shots on my mark. -Three shots on your mark.
So when he says three shots,
there's markers on here, like white, red, green.
Red, yellow, blue, white, green.
Shane's very new, you know, he definitely encompasses
that south California life, man.
-Red, yellow, blue... -Red, young, boys.
He needs a deckhand mentor. And that's fine.
I got an education degree.
Uh, in adventure, but you know, whatever.
Rub your balls with grease.
That's a lot better.
For real.
And drop.
That's three shot, looks like she's holding solid.
Lock it in and get the ball up.
Yeah.
Time for some fun water toys.
Are you okay?
There's no omelets pans, this is too big.
-This is trash. -Yeah.
Like, it's all trash.
Oh, hey James.
Hey, James.
Oh, hey, okay.
Having a good day so far?
Even better now.
Will you get into your swim gear?
Yep.
Oh, swim gear, okay, we're in for it.
Didn't we get up here at 9:00?
A vegetarian egg white, right here.
-And so-- -And avo toast.
Let's get this out.
[grunting]
This one's yours.
I'm pretty picky, I don't want guacamole on toast.
-I actually wanted sliced avo. -Sliced avo.
-Okay, okay, no problem. -I'm sorry.
No, that's fine.
One of you guys, grab this sh-- right here.
-Shane? -Sorry.
I'm right here.
[grunting]
Shane, can you double check the bung plug, make sure that's in.
Bung plug is in and tight.
Shane, go ahead and uh, run out there
and get that line in the water.
So, Jaime would like the avocado sliced, not guacamole.
My life is ending right now as we speak.
Oh God.
Hey, shut her down, watch it, watch it.
Hey, turn her off.
It's not ----ing rocket science.
Charley, this one is yours.
-Oh, thank you, love. -Yeah, that's okay.
They messed up her order as well.
She said no bell peppers, there's bell peppers.
Uh, all right, sure.
I think they probably just probably like, mixed.
I'll--I'll just check with Rachel, sorry about that.
-Okay, cool. -Yeah.
This is such a nightmare.
Oh my God, oh my God, I'm dying.
You've already finished your breakfast,
I haven't even had mine.
I'm sorry, y'all.
[sobbing]
What the [bleep]?
-Are you all right? -Sorry.
Oh sh--, it's going to be all right.
It's--I know.
Just hold on a second, okay?
Can you throw that out, please? Okay, hold on.
Just take five minutes.
We're going to have to do this one at a time.
Okay, I know, okay.
It'll be fine, I promise you.
I don't even know how to salvage this, these pans are massive.
Yeah.
This is the worst experience
I've ever had in my 14-year career on yachts.
Coming up...
Shane, Shane, Lee.
He's running around with no shirt on.
No. Not on my boat.
-[sobbing] -Are you all right?
Sorry.
Oh, sh--, it's going to be all right.
Did you get your avocado toast?
No, it's 11:00, I'm ready for freaking lunch at this point.
[laughter]
Okay, focus on what's happening.
And then we, emotions later.
It's going to be okay.
The three of us girls are here to support you.
We need to post mate onto this boat.
I'm just over this sh--.
I just need to plate this and be done.
Okay.
Oh, dude, I can sleep on this thing,
it's like a water bed.
Mushrooms, cilantro, this one's ready to roll.
Matt, here's your breakfast.
Oh, perfect.
-How is it? -Good.
Espresso martini.
Oh, thank you, love.
And is this keto friendly toast?
Yes, it is.
By the way, my avocado toast is amazing, so thank you.
-Is it really good? -Yay!
Ah fantastic, I will let Rachel know.
Hey guys, are we able to do things soon?
Yes, absolutely.
We're going to grab this jet ski is about to be ready right now.
Okay.
We have the sea bob's about to be ready right now.
Awesome.
-How are you? -Good, how are you?
Good, did you get some sleep?
I did, I got a little bit more sleep, which is good.
Good, glad to hear it.
Should we talk about tonight, quick?
Sure.
-Um, so for Alexi's birthday. -We'll set up the blacklights.
Yep.
You guys come to dinner with your neon paint.
Yes.
Um, she also has a crush on James.
Maybe we do like, some body shots.
[laughing]
If he's willing.
I didn't come on this vacation
to get ----ing tan lines on my hands.
Birthday dinner and James for dessert.
Oh my God, that's hilarious.
Should I wear these on the beach, or these?
Oh my God, these!
I think you should wear those on the beach.
Okay, perfect.
So, tonight, so they would like Mr. James
to come out and do a body shot for Lexi.
Hey James, guest request.
You are 100% allowed to say no to this.
Speedo, and so Lexi can take a body shot off you.
So you're going to be touched.
Oh, I'm game for that.
-Really? -Oh yeah.
-[laughing] -----ing fantastic.
That's a team player right there.
That's how we get the tip money.
Clearly been thrown in the deep end with this task.
Lime goes in the mouth. Salt goes on the nips.
And then you pour the shot into the belly button.
But at the same time...
this could be a lot of fun.
He-he.
[laughing]
I have never broken down before on charter.
Never.
I think these guests are bitchy.
That's fine. This is fine.
But you know what? I'm a perfectionist.
I'm my hardest critic, I can do better.
It's all good.
Izzy, Francesca, I've got cooler bags,
I'll bring them up.
We're going to pack them and then you're going to
go to the beach with Eddie.
No worries, copy.
So I know this is going to be really hard,
but you're going to have to get behind James on a jet ski
and grab him like this, and he's going to take you for a ride.
Fine, pull my hair.
I meant to say leg, but hair works.
Keep the drinks in the coolers.
-Mm-hmm. -And then serve from there.
Lexi, I have your first birthday present.
James is going to drive you to the beach.
Brilliant.
I just need to throw a life jacket on you.
Okay, go ahead, I'll wait for you.
Shane, Shane, Eddie.
You stay on the yacht while James and I
head to the beach picnic.
-You coming with me? -I am.
Come on.
Nice job.
I wish I would have just rode the jet ski.
What is that?
They look like they're having a blast.
Yeah.
She's the one driving.
I don't like it.
I think Lexi and James are really bonding out there.
That's like an ultimate birthday present for her.
She loves jet skiing?
-Or loves James? -She loves James.
All of them have a crush on James.
It's the accent and the eyelashes.
And the body.
Thanks.
Yachting is so me.
I'm blown away with the view.
I got my biodegradable sunscreen,
I got my reef safe shampoo,
and I can see a beautiful mountain with like,
Listerine Seas, I'm like, all right, hell yeah.
Like this is it, this is life!
Guys, look at this beach behind you.
Look at our own private island.
[screams]
-Thank you. -No problem.
You concentrate on this bar, and the pantry, and downstairs.
And galley.
Yeah, that's the thing,
it's like there's four spots... -I know, I know, I know.
And laundry.
I'm not complaining, it's just like,
I'm kind of like, flabbergasted.
I know.
I got into yachting four and a half years ago.
I was on a vacation with my best friend from Long Island,
and I fell in love with a yachtie on the beach.
[laughing] And the rest is history.
I had absolutely no experience.
I had just got my certification.
All of a sudden, I'm thrown in the thick of it.
That's what I'm used to.
But these guests are a little extra obnoxious.
[sighs] What are you going to do?
I really want to talk about it more,
and like, try and solve the issue.
No, no, no, yeah. But I feel like--
It's just like, it's out there, but we'll--
-Yeah. -We'll continue.
Deck crew, deck crew, Eddie?
Deck crew, deck crew, this is Eddie.
Shane, did you copy that?
Shane, Shane, Eddie.
What do you need, Eddie?
We need to make sure there are fresh
guests towels ready when we return.
Shane, Shane, Lee.
He doesn't answer his radio.
Running around in board shorts with no shirt on.
Dude.
Shane, Shane, Eddie.
No, not on my boat.
Coming up...
What do you got there?
Um, something our main charter guest has passed on to me.
Better him than me.
Yes! [laughing]
Shane, Shane, Lee.
Go ahead.
You have a rash guard?
Yes, I do.
Anytime you're outside, you're working wet,
you have a shirt on.
I'll go grab it right now.
Shane, Shane, Eddie.
Always make sure you answer your radio.
Copy that, it won't happen again.
Should be able to wear my swim trunks when I'm out there.
But nope, I got to wear a rash guard, got to wear my hat.
There's a morning outfit, there's a night outfit.
I mean, that's why I'm a Hawaiian shirt guy,
cause you can wear it anytime, for any occasion.
Does anyone want a margarita or champagne or beer?
Uh, yes, yes, and yes. It's a sassy yes for me.
[screams and laughter]
You doing okay, honey?
Don't worry, we're going to get you in with James.
First things first.
I have a million things going on right now.
Okay, first things, first.
As soon as I can, we can go through dinner,
because I really want to smash this event tonight.
I've got time.
This charter right now, not a fan.
We've got the crab and we've got lamb as well.
-Dessert? -German chocolate cake.
-Okay, cool. -Awesome, thank you.
Okay.
But at the end of the day, I'm paid a lot of money,
and uh, I'm paid to be professional,
somewhat, minus my mouth.
So, tonight's menu, we're going all out.
It's only going to get better.
You have any chocolate covered pretzels that aren't melted?
You can just have fondue baby, with hot sauce.
Exactly.
So I had a conversation with Captain Lee yesterday
about coming to join deck team.
-You prefer to work outside? -Yeah.
I have my yacht master offshore,
and I used to work as a skipper.
Still got a lot to learn, but I think I'm equally as,
if not more qualified than some of the people on deck.
Shane.
I just, one second.
Don't want that to float away.
Izzy, grab that anchor out right there.
Pull it out of the sand.
All right, now give you some slack on it.
There you go, that works.
I want you to walk up the beach with it.
Go ahead, plant it.
There you go. Nice job.
I'll give Captain Lee my ten cents.
Thank you so much.
Was great, I think it was a great interview.
Thank you.
Eddie, how long we gonna be here, babe?
We can go whenever you want.
If you don't mind getting a little wet before you get going.
James, James, Eddie.
Can you please, uh, jump on the jet ski
and pick up the birthday girl?
I'm on my way.
Copy, we just want to greet her with this.
[screams]
Hello, welcome back.
Towel.
Thank you.
You're welcome, happy birthday!
Thank you!
Oh, it's wicked hot.
Can we get a hose hooked up and spray off some of that?
We need to have dinner ready at 7:30.
We've got so much to do and we just need to get through that.
Just make sure the pantries are good.
-Yeah. -Everyone has drinks.
Yeah.
And you guys, you know, take initiative.
-Yeah. -Yeah.
Thank you.
So we have a big job, we need James to go pick out his Speedo
that he's wearing for the birthday surprise.
Shay, do you want to help James pick out his Speedo?
Not really.
You, come here, come here.
We brought a few.
So there's tropical, those ones are a little bit more revealing.
I think this is going to be your moment.
Hi.
What do you call these, by the way, in like,
your, in the UK, or--?
-Budgie smugglers. -Budgie smugglers.
Or banana hammock, or you know--
That's a good one.
So you choose your own budgie smuggler.
Right, I'll drop these off.
What do you get there?
Um, so this is something the main charter guest
has passed on to me.
A bit of a surprise for the birthday girl.
If you're cool with this?
Whatever.
[laughing]
Why am I not surprised?
[cheering]
Better him than me.
Interior team, change into your blacks.
I need help with decorations as soon as possible.
Okay, this is for dessert.
I need like, a happy birthday sign.
-Yeah. -Yep, perfect.
Can you please get butter plates?
-Yep. -Thank you.
-You like it? -Looks nice.
-Cool. -They'll like it.
I hope so.
It's neon carnival, so it's a broad theme.
Okay, let's go help the girls.
Watch, this is how you test.
Isn't that cool?
Let's go gang. Yay!
Ah, the balloons!
Wait, the bar's neon? Ah!
Girl, now, this is how you do a theme party!
-Yes! -[cheering]
-Okay. -Coming up now.
-Ooh. -Wow.
Oh, this was a request from Jerry.
Oh my God, this is really good.
-Yes. -Oh wow.
That looks good, crab legs!
So there's just like a bunch of crabs in wheelchairs now?
[laughing] Yeah, pretty much.
Eddie, Eddie, Lee, can you come to the wheelhouse?
On my way.
Oh my God, is that lamb chops?
Wow, she's pulling out all the stops.
Rachel, Rachel, they're all loving it up there.
Boom.
I think I nailed it.
Izzy expressed an interest in coming to the deck crew.
She expressed an interest to me about it today, too.
And she's got experience.
We did a beach party this afternoon.
She was really helpful.
If I can hire a stew that's really strong to replace her,
it'll take some of the burden off Francesca.
I'm happy about it.
She has a better sense of urgency than Sunshine does.
Sunshine?
Shane.
[laughing]
Maybe we should take a look at it?
Not make a decision right now?
I agree.
-These are good. -It's out of this world.
Yeah, [bleep] it.
We're waiting for dessert.
It shouldn't be too much longer.
James, it's showtime.
I'm going to go to the bathroom.
I'm just going to go grab my chef's coat really quickly.
Birthday girl, shag, marry, kill the group.
We all know who you would shag.
You don't look quite ready.
Yes!
Okay, so I have a question for you.
Yes.
So when we initially came on this trip,
Shay had the hots for James.
How did you end up like on the jet ski?
I don't know.
Okay, because if my girlfriend likes somebody,
-I wouldn't do that to them. -Ooh.
So I'm just saying, I'm a girl's girl.
This got super awkward. Unacceptable.
Jamie, come to my room.
-No, no, no. -Carlos, this does not continue.
No, no, no, Jamie, no.
Oh my God, this is not even.
I'm done. [bleep] this.
Oh God.
Are you ----ing kidding me right now?
Are you kidding me? No, you don't do that.
Don't do that to me. I'm done.
Are you kid--are you kidding me right now?
They are in a huge argument right now.
It sounds like they're fighting over James.
It's ridiculous, he's a deck hand, not a man toy.
We're supposed to be ----ing family and this is it?
Liquor!
I'm done.
They are in a huge argument right now.
We're supposed to be ----ing family and this is it.
No.
Glaze, bitch, glaze.
-Lexi? -Wait, honey, just.
Lexi, I need you downstairs please.
They're having a birthday--
Yeah, so Charley wants it, it's her birthday,
for a second, give it to Asher.
No, no, no, do not sit there and dismiss me.
Hello, look at me.
Shay, honey, now is not the time, please.
All right, all right, then I'm ----ing done.
This is a friendship that you just ----ed.
-Shay... -You just ----ed it up.
-Is everything okay? -No.
So you want to hold off with the cake?
-Honey? -No.
-Shay. -No, yeah.
Honey, stop, come here, come here, will you please?
-No, no! -For me?
What should we do with our crew member?
Just stand by, stand by, please.
She didn't have say something, so.
I--no, that's not what I been--
-So what are you talking about? -I told her just right now.
So awkward, I can't handle it.
No, it's so fabulous.
Charley, are you kidding me right now?
No, I'm not kidding, I don't know what you're doing,
like, I have no idea what you're talking about.
This is the fun of working on yachts,
is seeing petty bullsh-- drama like this.
You're ruining this moment.
Oh my God!
You've got grown ass women fighting over this guy
that shaves his chest, like [bleep].
Send them like, positive vibes.
Is there a, um, robe around here anywhere,
so that his disco ball can stop shining me in the eyes?
Shay, what are you doing?
All right, all right, fine, I'll sit right here.
No.
Lexi was sitting there for her surprise.
Okay fine, I'll sit where I was sitting before.
We've got something planned.
We've got something really special planned,
yeah, I think, I think, great.
Fantastic, okay, cool.
Okay, guys, we are ready. Showtime.
We're grabbing the cake right now, we're heading up.
All right my love.
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪
♪ Happy birthday dear Lexi ♪
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪
Yes, woo!
I work with the guy, I can't.
All I'm going to say is he was the only one
that had the balls to do that.
In more ways than one.
I can't watch the guy I work with every day
-do lap dances on people. -Mm.
I mean, lovely figure but a man gyrating
in like a sparkly speedo? No, thank you.
So let's move to the after party.
No, I'm ----ing done.
Don't underestimate a jealous female.
It was embarrassing.
It's okay. Let's go have this party.
What shot would you like, Lexi?
[laughing]
-Yes! -Yeah!
Thank you buddy, you're the best.
All right, go get some rest.
Did you like your present?
-It was okay, right? -No, it was amazing!
I'll be right back.
[grunting]
Disperse the negative vibes.
No.
Wash the filth off, because you're covered in it right now.
I'm very upset, so can you please stay here?
Charley, are you kidding me?
I am not kidding you, I can't believe you just did that.
That was insane! Insane!
Charley, forget it. Forget it.
No excuse.
Um, what are you guys up to?
No.
Carl--
There was absolutely no excuse for you to do that to me.
Wait, we have cake.
I can taste the gluten free.
CHARLEY: That was really embarrassing!
SHAY: Embarrassing for you, what about for me?
Next, on "Below Deck"...
I need you to finish this now.
I don't want to leave the team high and dry.
I've asked her to do something
and now she's like trying to get out of it.
But I really am itching to get outside.
I want to go to the bar, I want to go to a club.
-Cheers everybody. -Cheers.
Yeah, this will be fun.
James, you are not on a holiday.
We're here to work, and you will work, or you will be gone.
I'm going to sleep, I'll see you 0800 on deck.
Number two, we have twenty somethings.
I got ties older than them.
What is the WIFI?
I don't need WIFI, I just need a drink.
Can we check IDs? I don't--
Are you looking to hook up with anyone?
Um...
Francesca's looking fit. Shagable.
[laughing]
We got rain coming in.
Man, you are very observant.
I'm not a pushover, I'm going to stand up for myself.
I don't appreciate your sarcasm, man.
You can't take a little bit of a joke,
then you should probably get on a different crew.
