I love when we get a glimpse of the crew members.
Nathan waits in the bosuns locker and naively claims there are no cameras on the deck.
Shes spooked that she got caught and texts him, deciding to call it a night.
In the morning, Gael feels awkward about the whole thing and regrets not going straight to bed.
She calls her boyfriend but doesnt mention the Nathan temptation.
In less of a gray area, Sandy acts decisively and switches provisioners.
Aesha is thrilled everything arrives on time.
Is it dumb that Id actually be interested in seeing more of the logistics of placing these orders?
Unless someone else is placing the orders … scandalous, if true.
Gigi is Zendaya inChallengers,and the crew is the two boys taking turns disappointing her.
Gigi notices the distinct taste and doesnt like how overbearing it is.
Another guest compares it to Indian curry, a dish that is traditionally much more likely to have cardamom.
2: lost paddleboarders.
Nathan and guest Laura paddle too far out and cant get back to theMustiquebecause of a strong current.
They hitch a ride back on a catamaran, which is not a good look.
Joe owns that it was his fault for not telling Nathan to come closer.
Sandy thinks its also on Iain and reminds him to always have two sets of eyes on the guests.
Iain would rather be dressing up at a music festival.
The galley and exterior may be slipping, but Bri is improving.
She takes Ellies advice and uses a notebook to keep track of the guest laundry.
Ellie and Aesha are happy shes receptive to coaching.
In addition to bed-making skills, Bri also wants Ellie to teach her how to be flirty.
Ellie asks if its for Joe, and Bri says no just in general.
But in confessional, Bri is definitely interested in Joe, just like Ellie is.
Going after the same boy?
(Thats the last reference, I promise.)
3: The yoga setup is too cramped.
You cant comfortably do a sun salutation without hitting the person on the neighboring mat.
Later, Aesha is about to serve dinner with the stews still in their red shirts.
Sandy goes, You didnt want to put your uniform on for this?
They change quickly to blacks, and the captain joins them for synchronized service, leading us to …
There must have been at least one first course we werent shown, right?
The first we see is a chicken entree.
Sandy doesnt think chicken should be served on a superyacht its not luxury food.
Gigi says it has too much rosemary, and everyone eats in silence, conspicuously not complimenting the food.
Aesha knows this is a bad sign, but the guests are positive when she asks how it was.
The diners think its both not chocolaty enough and too intense of a flavor.
Post-dinner, the ladies partake in a toga competition.
Aesha theorizes that ancient Greeks wore them because the open design would be convenient for orgies.
I have to fact-check here and say that togas are Roman, not Greek.
This doesnt matter because most of the women on the charter dont wear togas, either.
They have bought toga-esque dresses, while the crew competes in a timed toga-making contest.
It seems to be a good time, and the guests go to bed at 12:15 a.m.
They ask for huevos rancheros at 8:30 a.m. tomorrow.
Jono has it ready, but none of the guests are awake.
The eggs sit out for an hour and a half.
And, of course, theyre cold.
Gigi sends her eggs back and asks for hot ones.
She tells Sandy about it and critiques yesterdays food.
From the Galley
Gigi is actually not the only tennis player onboard: All the friends play.
I think we ALL sing vibes.
One brags that her tennis partner is Bidens next-door neighbor.
Should Aesha be dialing back the crass humor with guests?
One-hundred cement.Iain
