![]() Instead of just doing his job and throwing something together for lunch, he decides to throw a full-blown tantrum. ![]() Which Mathew is baffled to discover is part of his job as the boat’s chef. Not bad at all for a two-day charter, huh? And now it’s time to party. Thanks again for that, Mathew.) At the tip meeting, she reveals the guests left a stack of $21,000. (The first crew-prepared dinner of the season notwithstanding. They depart the boat as happy return charter guests, and Sandy is amazed that - for the first time in six seasons - there hasn’t been a single guest complaint thus far. It’s the first time Lexi accuses the chief stew of being bad at her job, but trust me, it won’t be the last.Īfter a quick game of hide and seek with Captain Sandy Yawn, it’s time for the Orbisons to head out. But of course, the second stew somehow takes this as evidence that Katie’s taking the chef’s side over hers. All poor Katie can do is try to calm the situation down and send Lexi to do guest cabins. Lexi declares she’s done being nice, and has openly begun threatening to strangle Mathew. As the chef says, his superpower is annoying people.Īll of this eventually blows back on Katie, who arrives right in the middle of the breakfast battle. But instead of expediting the meal, he decides to take his sweet time racking his knives, just to get under the skin of his nemesis just a little more. Lexi is the breakfast girl whether you like it or not. ![]() Except Katie’s sleeping, so you kind of just have to deal with it, bro. He won’t take orders from anyone but Katie. Lexi wants to serve the other guests since they’re asking for breakfast. The primaries choosing to sleep in causes some form of confusion in Mathew’s brain. Which means it’s time for another round in the galley between her and Chef Mathew. Since Katie Flood took the late shift for her stews, Lexi is on breakfast service. You’d think that would make things easy, but no. the primary - also quickly abandoned his drunken quest to jump off the boat and went to bed. And thankfully the most junior of all the deckhands reacted quickly and Malia turned it into an effective teaching moment. As Malia pointed out, it happens all the time. Yes, a line snapped, but it was no big deal. Just a classic case of bait and switch by Bravo. As last week’s episode ended, a line snapped and we heard Malia White scream Mzi Dempers‘ name. Before Lexi chose violence and detonated an atom bomb of negativity on the boat, Lady Michelle had to get through a nighttime docking. (Poor Lloyd Spencer!)īut let’s back it up and start at the beginning. Lexi’s the kind of girl who would not only take comparing herself to Satan as a compliment, she would openly delight in the cruelty she can wreak on the people around her. And there’s no word to describe them but ugly. ![]() Tonight, the Bahamian bad girl ripped off the mask and showed her true colors. She’s come across as high maintenance, snobby, inconsiderate and rude. Yes, Lexi’s bad attitude has peeked through the veneer of her pageant girl persona in recent weeks. Obviously, all of the negativity can be boiled down to just one person on the boat. And that’s not even considering Chef Mathew Shea‘s abrupt and classless departure… But I can’t think of anything that reaches this same level of all-out war where every single person in the crew was involved. We’ve seen unjust firings and plenty of toxic masculinity throughout the years. Was this the most dramatic crew fight in the history of the entire Below Deck franchise? Yes there have been fistfights and throuples. And frankly, that feeling hasn’t gone away as I sit down to write this a few days later. Just watch? That was my rather dumbfounded reaction last Monday after screening this week’s episode of Below Deck Mediterranean.
