After a dramatic day offlast episode, were back to the grind of charter.
It seemed like things were starting to heat up, but this week its barely reaching a simmer.
For now, we have a love triangle set up and the usual work of satisfying guest demands.
It may be exhausting for the crew, but its relaxing to watch.
The primary is Ronnie, a CEO from Chicago whos doing a girls trip for her 50th birthday.
She expects seven-star hotel service, which for the record is not a thing.
Even on a normal five-star scale,Parsifal IIIis probably only four stars.
Its basically a cue card.
Work-wise, Chase isnt trying to impress Gary and wants to fly under his bosss radar instead.
Romance-wise, Chases plans to avoid a boatmance are quickly going out the porthole.
He finds both stews stunning, even though he doesnt realize yet how into him they both are.
Diana tells Danni shes horny, but Danni goes full steam ahead in flirting with Chase.
She shows Chase photos from the nights out, and Diana silently fumes as he compliments Dannis outfits.
Whether its purposeful can be debated, but Danni is definitely fanning the flames of their rivalry.
The O Beach host must not have given her an O.
She just cant compete with Dannis brash flirting and shoulder rubs.
Meanwhile, Daisy is in a love-hate triangle of her own making.
She just wants him to work on improving himself.
Hes still enamored with Daisy and theyve fallen into a bickering-old-couple routine.
For lunch, Cloyce serves a watermelon feta salad then a crab avocado salad.
Maybe its my writerly instincts, but you cant call them both salads!
Cloyce isnt the only one slipping: Daisy realizes she forgot to order rose.
Thankfully, Diana finds one bottle to hold them over while Danni and Chase go buy some more.
Chase is already proving his worth by being able to drive the tender.
Dannis chaotic flirting includes claiming that wine makes her instantly projectile vomit.
Except then it was the provisioners fault; Aesha would never forget the order.
Eventually they find an open bar/store and the mission is successful.
Danni takes this non-challenging errand as a sign that she and Chase make a good team.
Dinner starts off questionably with Cloyces attempt at tuna crispy rice.
She quickly clears the appetizer it was literally one bite which throws off Cloyces timing.
Hes running behind on the next course, a yellowtail crudo.
He comes up with the main course while everyones still standing and is annoyed.
His precious cod is best served hot, and he thinks Daisys screwing up his timing.
He must have meant white miso.
Theyre impressed and chat with him so long that theyre done with the course.
Im worried all this yapping is going to cut into his dessert plating time.
Downstairs, Danni tells Daisy that Cloyce was being snippy with her and complaining about the interiors communication.
In retaliation, Daisy starts overcommunicating on the radio: We will be in the galley in 40 seconds.
She tells him that he should talk to her if he has a problem and not to the girls.
Is it because she can tell and is charmed by him?
Or are we seeing them not be able to maintain a facade of manufactured drama for the show?
Or did something happen were missing and theres real sexual tension between them in the small space?
Its a bizarre moment and we need answers.
In the morning, Ronnie wants a sweet and creamy latte, but Daisy cant get it right.
She seems afraid of putting in too much sugar when Ronnie is clearly asking for more sugar.
Another guests coffee is cold not seven-star service at all.
After the third try at Ronnies coffee, she opts for tea instead.
The ladies vibe at breakfast seems low.
Its unclear if the food is bad or theyre hungover or just really upset about the coffee.
Unfortunately, Ronnies rough morning gets worse when shes stung by a jellyfish.
The deckhands are on it right away.
They rinse Ronnies leg with antiseptic, but its swelling up and the pains not going away.
Keith tweezes it out.
Its like watchingDoctor Odyssey, except Keith does not hook up with his co-workers.
Other than this heroic moment of competency, we dont hear much at all from Keith this episode.
Im curious how he feels about Chase but have to assume its too cordial and boring to include.
Right at the end of the episode, the simmer finally starts bubbling.
Daisy delivers on messiness in the crew mess apt!
by filling Chase in on Dannis romantic pursuits.
Daisy also says Danni almost had a thing with Keith, pissing Danni off.
Danni tells Chase neither meant anything.
In an interview she says, This is why Im not friends with most girls.
Her pick-me mentality is the worst.
Daisy didnt even mention the guy she brought back to the boat literally two nights ago.
And it may be cheesy, but you should be so proud to be likemost girls.
