#3287 Below Deck Down Under S04E09 Part One: Honey Don’t

over there. Hello Ben, how are you my little darling face? I'm great. Thanks. How are you doing Ronnie? Good. It's just so good to be here on another Bravo Day. Nothing's really happening in the world. Oh my God. Oh my God. That's conference. Oh my God. And breaking me is oh my God. She's coming up. It's west. It's west from summer house. I just wanted to tell everybody that I'm just a little boy and I don't really understand anything that's going on.

So I just liked to introduce Amanda, but to have her say, Amanda. Thanks, West. Well, as I sat on my Instagram stories, we've seen the growing online speculation.

“And so while this is still Amanda, who is we? Here is Amanda, who is we?”

The Royal Wii. It's like me and my bikinis for girls who have large breasts. All of us together have seen the growing speculation. And so like while this is still very new,

we wanted to provide some clarity. It was never our intention to purposely hide anything,

except our oversized boobs in bikini tops that fit properly. We were trying to accidentally hide it. Given the complicated relationship dynamics involved in the scrutiny that comes with being on reality TV show Kyle, we needed a little space to process things privately before speaking on it. Amanda, Kyle, we've shown up for each other as long as it really is.

I'm going to play a set of a lot. Why'd they be being dead anyway? Kyle, we've shown up for each other as friends over the years through all the highs and lows, and what's developed recently was the last thing, either of us expected, our connection grew out of a genuine, long-standing friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care, Kyle, a vacuum at it. I'll pay attention to me.

As our feelings evolved, we wanted to take time to understand exactly what we were feeling. We also recognize that this is how to impact beyond just us,

and never wanted our actions to cause any herder perceived as careless.

“The only thing careless here is West Sprockley here.”

I'm sorry, West has a bullet, everybody. There is at it. I said it. We truly appreciate the understanding and respect as we navigate this. And of course, what I'm talking about are the new flavors on the Starbucks menu. Thank you, everyone, for respecting your privacy while we figure out the new menu. Thank you. Wow, Amanda. Wow.

Wow. Wow. So it sounds, I'm assuming she's talking about the scandal. Wow. So it was West. So that's not even like they just made out. She's wearing his baseball cap. That's like they're together together. Oh, Amanda. That's like when I lost weight finally, and then I grew back on my hair.

You can never win. You can never win.

You know, let's let's terrible for Amanda, and we'll get to West too, by the way. But what's terrible for Amanda is that here she's embarking on this romantic relationship with West. It sounds like, and she is going to burn all of her friendship in the house. Definitely Sierra. She's never going to earn that friendship back with Sierra. Like that's done and dusted, probably page two, Lindsey, everyone.

Like she's burned all these friendships. She's they're all gone for a guy that ultimately is just going to be like, I'm scared of commitment and like this is like really intense and everyone hates me.

“So I think we shouldn't do this anymore. Like this is it's for something that's not going to go anywhere.”

And that's just sad. Yeah, that is sad. I mean, I would have rather than just been like, listen, everybody, I'm single, he's single. We fucked a couple times. Get off my ass, okay? Sierra knows I told her something, but,

you know, Amanda West. No, anybody else. I think if it was Ben, you know,

I mean, Sierra's kind of the queen of that show. Yes, she is.

“And rightfully so. I mean, she's earned it.”

Beyond her beauty, you know, because everyone's always like, but she's so pretty.

How could you do this to someone so pretty? Yeah, ugly people get fucked over to you guys. But beyond her, beyond her obvious gorgiosity. The fact that that's one of your girlfriends who's standing up for you currently on this episode that we're watching this week, it's like Sierra standing up for you.

And Sierra trying to help you through your problems with your shitty marriage and everything like that. And I know that at Sierra and West were never married. They were never even dating technically. I mean, I don't even think they said they were boyfriend or girlfriend ever. But you know what's going on there.

So that this is bad. You know that this is terrible girl code. What are you doing, Amanda? Oh my god. I thought you're smarter than this, but you have been married to Kyle for a decade. And also like West is so generic. Like, couldn't you find just a different West?

Like, they're everywhere. Like why this West? And again, this is just not going to go anywhere. It's just going to be like, um, Amanda, um, yeah, like you're really cute. Like, that's just like, it's terrible. And on top of that, now on the West end of it.

I'm not intended. Um, this guy, again, like we said yesterday, he spends an entire last season moping about Sierra. This season he's got his foot. No tapping her calf.

Well, well, drunk.

“And like, oh my god, you really likes me.”

It's you really likes me. All of this bullshit. Just to like, shit on it. We knew that was a lie. We knew that was a lie.

And it seems like that's going to get against.

And we knew it. It looks like based on the, the second half of this season.

That, um, he's going to, he's going to screw it up. By the end of the season. So that is going to happen. But it's just like it just speaks to the bullshit. You know, if this is, if he's truly in love with Sierra,

if he really cares about Sierra, if he wants Sierra. I don't know. I just don't think this is what you do. Even if you acknowledge like, if it becomes clear, my shot with Sierra is gone. It's done.

I have to move on. I can't hope to keep trying for Sierra. Like she's closed the door to me. Sure, move on. But don't move on and hurt her in the process.

If this is someone that you can't truly say is the one that got away. The one that you love. You're just not, you're just going to, you still are going to hold her in higher guard and not hurt her. And that's exactly what it seems like he has done.

He doesn't care. He's only in it for the fame. You know, he's in it for the fame. He's like a poser. He's like a tick talk.

He has tick talk here. Okay. He's like a bar school sports guy. He doesn't take a bath. And he has a bullet.

I can't with this guy. I just can't. I can't. Why with West? Why with all of all people?

And then West, you know, Kyle's supposed to be his friend too. So like, yeah. Oh, guy code. What the hell? I mean, look, part of me's like, they're all in a house.

It's about fucking. And there's only a certain amount of people in the cast. So you're, you know, Sierra's got two basically, with Jesse and West, you know, that are kind of into her who've been messing with her feelings. So who's left?

Kyle's already taken. Then there's been. Who boring. And then KJ's taken automatically. But, you know, you can't do things outside the group.

You know. And then part of me that's like, while they're both adults. And they're both single. And if this is their thing, then that's fine. Like, you can't help who you love.

The whole book. He would even be saying that. But other parts, like, but you both have friends that you're kind of fucking over with this whole thing too. And like, is that more important than you're whatever.

You can't do stupid influencer bullshit relationship, which I probably don't even believe. And third of all, how do you go from one man child to another guy who's like, got broccoli hair and trying to, like, dress like every teenager on TikTok.

I just don't come on, man. You can't help who you love. You can have standards. And that they're like woefully missing in this situation.

“I think it's fascinating that parallels between this and”

people, you know, you have Ariana and Sierra who are both kind of cut from the same mold in terms of Bravo types, which is, like, principled, upstanding girls, girls who are by and large, like, really respected and loved by the audience. And they, like, seem to be one standing up for the right things.

There, like, Sierra has really never had ever a story line where

it's like, oh, wow. I'm, like, I hate, I fucking hate Sierra. I don't like there's ever been a situation where, like, half the audience loves Sierra, half the audience hate Sierra. Maybe people got annoyed with her for going back to Austin so

many times during that dreaded chapter. But, like, by and large, the audience has always been behind Sierra. By and large, the audience was always behind Ariana. And in both cases, these, these two people who really went above and beyond to be there for their girlfriends get screwed over by their

girlfriends, which is crazy. And then you have Amanda and you have Raquel and you have two women who

in a way or, like, they're like, they're both DJs.

They're in relationship with DJs. They're both, like, DJs with the substance in these issues. Who are, like, in it, who are, like, really focused on in Kyle's case, you know, going to these random bars and playing in James's case, playing on top of some toilet paper at

that. And Tom Tom. But the point is that they're kind of taking the women for granted and you have these sort of, like, women who are just kind of like left on the side and they've sort of wind up in these situations.

Amanda's not technically in an affair, but it's a fairer adjacent. Yeah, I mean, I've been experiencing the layering difference is that Tom and Ariana were in a long-term relationship of, like, ten years or whatever.

So if that's a huge, that's, that's a pretty huge difference.

“And also, I think Amanda has a lot in common with Ariana and”

that she's the one who's sitting at home, who just wants her

partner to be at home watching a love island, which is, like,

the same basic plot of that one. But she's also kind of the recount. Even though, you know, she's technically not cheating. I mean, people are trying to make this indiscountable, but it's really not.

It's not the same thing. It's not a cheating. It's not an affair. This one to be trail is more a friendship. It's, and it's double, you know, and Amanda's going to get more of it

because Amanda and Sierra, I think, I think that everyone accepts the guys or pieces of shit. And no one is surprised that West or Jesse or Kyle, none of them would be surprising to end up being a douchebag. We all know their douchebags.

We all know that. So Amanda's going to get it worse because she has to, you know, that's one of her friends who's been standing there for her. So I think that's the ultimate betrayal.

And it's, yikes. It's not great. And it's, you're right. It's not technically an affair. Although, I don't know if Kyle and Amanda are not.

I don't think that they're actually divorced. No, but they're.

“So I guess actually a lot of bang people in your separated, right?”

Right. Like, technically, like, I don't know. Like, technically, actually, some could make an argument that's an affair. But what makes it different is that this group of people

that, like, convened together in a house. They're like, they're all living together. And there's like that crucible energy of them all being near being crushed by Bravo TV intensity. And so, like, not an affair.

It's a flagrant violation of girl and bro code. But it's also, like, summer house. Like, share house. Like, code, ride violation, too. Like, you're all in this house.

And you're having a affair within the house. There's like, there's like that craziness of that as well. But also, like, the other thing is that, like, Amanda and Kyle are like, uh, just like, uh, Tom and Ariana are longstanding couple in the group.

And so, like, we really know the ins and outs of them. And we thought we really knew Amanda. But do we really know Amanda? Do we really know Amanda outside of, outside of, like, the context of Kyle?

I'm not actually sure we did. Well, I don't think Amanda is, like, I don't think we need this evil mastermind horrible person. And I, you know, just lonely. I think she's making a terrible decision here.

But also, because I really just don't like West. So I think she's making a terrible decision. To me, it's very clear this guy's just using you to get on the city. I don't think if Amanda had this spin-off show that was shooting that West would care. But West is clearly planning on jumping over to this new show.

Um, I don't trust that guy. But anyway, about Amanda, Amanda is going to get stoned in the streets. You know, figuratively. And I, you know, I don't hate Amanda suddenly. I just think she's, that's the guy who's been,

we see it on the show right now.

“West is like, you need to treat with Amanda with respect.”

And then Amanda, you deserve better in this and that. So I think she's kind of a really sweet life raft. I mean, West is really nice if you're falling for his bullshit. So if you're falling for that act, you know, he does seem like a really sweet guy who's just being supportive

and then friendship led to whatever. So I kind of feel bad for her in a way. But Madness is a bad move to be fucking over your girlfriend. I mean, yes, that thing is that like I believe that she has been really lonely. I think she's been lonely in her marriage.

I think she's been lonely in this relationship for a while. I think right. Like when you're, when you're lonely and someone shows you attention. It's like in time. I fall on love with GPS people.

Okay. I'm single all the time.

I'm single by choice, but it doesn't mean I never got lonely.

I literally, when people are delivering my Instagram, I look at their picture. And if it's a hot guy, I'm like, "Oh, my God, I'll go my hair." [laughs] But I think that she was lonely.

And I cannot, I can't, like, you know, I can't take that away from her. She was lonely. However, and, you know, normally me, you know, how many times have I come on this podcast and be like,

Like, let's not forget about the guy I did because I always feel like the women always get it in these situations.

The women always get it worse than the guys. Like, well, that's not overlooked what West did. Well, West is shitty, and he's been trying to perpetuate an image of him being this nice guy and sensitive and thoughtful, but he's doing something shitty. However, in this case, I actually think Amanda is the shittier one

because I think the hurt to Sierra is,

“is, I think Amanda's hurt to Sierra is worse than West's hurt to Sierra,”

or West's hurt to Kyle. I think Amanda and Sierra is a deeper richer relationship. And I think that we see Sierra as someone who's very, very guarded. And she's worked hard to bring down her walls just to be on the show and be like a contributing member to the show.

She's let down her walls. And, you know, they always are encouraging her to come out of her shell a little bit more and not be so cut and dry. And I feel like this is the exact sort of thing that gives Sierra her walls and the first place and has her put them up.

And I just think it's damaging to her. I think it's like really cruel. And I think Amanda forget Kyle, forget anyone else in the house. I think Amanda, this is really so hurtful to Sierra. And I think it's, it's slow, but you know,

and not taking West out again. West is the one who got involved so deeply emotionally with Sierra and then is doing this. So West, you know, West is still, West is the West. I think it comes down to like who I just like the most.

And I'm not going to go hate Amanda after this, but I didn't like West anyway. So he can fuck her.

“Yeah, I'm just saying, I think Amanda, this should,”

I think in this case, Amanda did do the shit your thing.

You know, I, you know, I'm always the one who's going to be like,

remember the guys rolling this. Don't let Michelle, don't let cultural misogyny make you forget about what the guy did. But I think actually in this case, Amanda, Amanda was more of the,

like I think she's inflicted more harm. And they're both, they both are something incredibly shitty. Yeah, he likes, so that's the other. Yeah, he likes. Okay, so, um, good luck with that.

Good luck with that, you too. Can I have fun? (laughs) I can't help the camera. I'm sure Bravo's going to pick up the camera.

Oh, I guess the city is the link up of the cameras. Yeah, probably the camera's on the city. Because they said that they went shooting right.

They shot the city right after summer house,

which means they would have been through like August, August, September, through the holidays, roughly. So, yeah, they'll probably pick those cameras right back up, Amy. And out of respects to one of the great reality TV shows of all time,

known as the city. Let's please call the showbites pop name in the city. 'Cause there's a difference between in the city and the city. Yeah, there's no Olivia Polermo here. Don't think you're quiet.

(laughs) Don't even you can steal. You can steal so much man, but you cannot steal Olivia Polermo from my memory. Don't even turn. I just saw an entertainment weekly cover

from my 2006 Olivia Polermo on it. I was like, oh, god, I missed that show. It was so good, the city. I would argue that the city was better than the hills. Oh, that's what I'm saying.

No, I really did like the city though.

“Oh, my god, I still remember her apartment.”

Olivia's apartment on the rooftop of that place, and Jessica Loverford dinner, and the whole people was outside in New York's, I mean, wow. Anyway, the point is, relax. And I don't want anyone to ever forget.

(laughs) So, good for that. So, sorry to everybody who doesn't even know what that stuff is. We will, you know, timestamp this. So, if you don't give a shit about these children fucking,

sorry for everyone who tuned into, listen to us, talk about Starfish on the floor. Let's see. By the way, Fisherport will be a little shorter this week. We've been, we don't even, we get so excited talking about it.

We don't even realize how much time goes by, but this time we're gonna, we're gonna tighten it up. Tighten it up. Tighten it up. Tighten it up.

Okay, so here we are below deck down under season four episode nine. (singing in foreign language) Ellie is furious at Ben, and she's now just gone. (singing in foreign language) No, don't go through there.

There's customers there. Don't go through there. Don't go through there. Don't go through there. Don't go through there. I don't care.

I thought fruit is a child. (laughing) I sold fruit for milk. Is it a child? I will do this.

Captain, what just happened in the gallery? It's unacceptable. He's like, what happened? The way Ben speaks to me. Just what it was about.

He's just like, all what happened there. It's just like slowly backing away. He just does that blank blank. He's like, oh God. Another day of women's emotions.

End man. But let's watch how I react to women's emotions this time. He's just like blank blank blank blank blank blank. Oh, I was just like, my Eminem's. (laughing)

Now I have to deal with this. He needs me to do certain things for dinner,

but he never told me about it.

“And then I'll have a sudden he would like you need to hurry up.”

Ben, we're starting. Well, you need to do all these things. I've got the priority as my day better. If you as my manager have told me by the way, these are your tasks.

I need them by this time. What is the point of whiteboard? Why? And you told him that. I just told him that right now.

Me and my ponytail told him. You've been, he's trying to make me feel like we are about to fail dinner service because of me. So yes, I lost it. But this man is literally driving me insane.

He's like, well, I actually thought the communication was pretty good in Saudi galley. I mean, not that I was in there or observing. We're doing anything other than smelling the samples of Sandalwood.

But we thought you guys were working well together. Oh, I haven't had a woman come up here crying lately. So I figured everything was okay in the galley. And I could watch Real Housewives of Salt Lake City with my little talking bowl friends that are eat.

Or I'm sorry, but I had no sign to this. She's like, well, I've been trying. So, and he's like, oh, yeah, I can see that. I can see that you're trying. Okay, let me blink a few times blankly.

Okay, are you backing away or am I backing away? No, really. I'm in a bush. I'm in a bush. Or I, the show's over.

“Okay, I don't, I think that this is, this is kind of a week argument of”

Alice going up there and being like, he's mad at me because I didn't do stuff and I didn't even know I was supposed to do stuff. This sounds like it's just not a good argument. I mean, if you're going to go up there being like he calls me Sweetie and sugar and dumb plats.

All fucking day and he's so condescending and I can't and then he gets pissy and no one sees the pissy side. They only see this. Oh, he's so sweet. It's not sweet.

I'm sick of this shit. I can see dumb something like that maybe. But this whole like he wanted stuff done that I didn't get done, but he didn't tell me in time and I pissed. It's like, yeah, that's like, that's a conversation you have after

service. I agree with you though. Like, I think that her frustration with being called honey and sweetie and, you know, putting pops. Like, for sure, that's actually 100% worthy of going to the captain to discuss.

And she does do that very shortly. But I think that like, I wonder if she's like trying to think like, maybe

I should lead with more of the managerial things first

before I get into my personal issues. But she's like, I'm not going to be a door mat captain. What about being a Camino? No, I will not be a Camino. It's like, well, I totally agree.

You won't be a door mat or Camino. So then downstairs Jenna walks into the alley and she's like, Oh, man. He's like, no, I'm not very all right. Custer jeeks.

Elena just fucking spat jips me big time. It's like, you know, with knowingling a prior on happiness, except for the meeting that we had three hours earlier. This is all coming as a big, big shock to me. Yeah.

And I'm sorry. He's like, yeah, you know, this is just unfair. You know, this is completely unfair. Now she's fucking complaining to the captain in the middle. I mean, that's not professional.

You save it. I have the way to the world of my shoulders. So I need to be in a good headspace. And this is just not what I need right now. I mean, what is this?

I'll wedding that I've already paid for. That I've been left at. Why are I there?

Captain Jason, he always calls me honey.

Baby, sweetie pie. Sugar pie. It's humiliating to me. What about good nicknames? Like, good vegetable center.

Bombing survivor milk drinker. Things like that. That was always called. Well, he shouldn't be calling you anything that you don't want to be called. You've got boundaries and you need to communicate those boundaries.

But all communicate them with them about that as well.

“And I think you need to go back in and create boundaries.”

That's what we're doing today. I don't even want you cutting cucumbers or want you creating boundaries. So right, because I'm with you. I understand. I'll get to the bottom of it.

Or I'm sorry. That was a private body part. I should have said that. Right. But I will get to it.

This is the most generic advice. Create boundaries. I was like, are you using cap GPT? Like, why are you? What is this?

It's like, how do I respond to an angry stew? It's like how do I respond to an angry stew? Yeah, boundaries. I've heard the term before. Let's say boundaries a lot until she leaves.

We'll just keep saying boundaries. Jason, whenever a woman comes up there crying, just gets this same.

It's so funny to me. And he's like, and check, thank you captain. I appreciate you. And he's like, no problem. Truffle Thompson.

Oh, damn it. Sorry. It's addictive. It really is addictive. You know what?

I'm short. I thought everything was fantastic down there. And they're working well together last time. And I don't want to dismiss a few links in a situation. However, I would like to watch real house once a sort like city.

However, there's a time for everything, including watching south Salt Lake City. And that time should be now. And instead, I'm not doing it. So the time for this complaint does not 10 minutes before dinner. So I'm probably going to have to keep my head in the gallery a little bit.

Monitor this. And make sure the food goes out and tip is then go up. And I'll do that by sitting in my room and watching TV instead. By the way, and speaking of real house was a sort of like city. Just a little bit of the inside.

“Did you happen to see the video Britney baked men trying on outfits that she posted just yesterday?”

Did you see that? I didn't. What was that like? Was she crying? And do I need to set some boundaries?

She was not setting any boundaries. Actually, the issues that her boundaries were a little bit too baby.

Because basically, she was like, it was just a little silly video.

Like, um, Sabrina Carpenter playing and she's like trying on different outfits. She's like, look at me and this outfit. And now this outfit. And then this outfit. But what people noticed is that the walls behind her were starting to like wave a bit.

So basically, she had used AI to like either, I don't know. Maybe look better or something. I don't know, but she was using AI to have this fashion video. And everyone clocked it right away. Like, oh, your door is squiggling.

It's like it's so Britney baked men. Like, the ones Kim Zoltsiakis to make where she'd be all skinny, but then the walls bending in front of her. It's like, what an interesting shaped doorway. That S shaped door is so fascinating. So doorway for the letter S to come into your life.

And as we all know, the letter S ends the word boundaries. Rose, create him, let's create him. So Ellie comes back to the galley and she's still pissed. And Ben's just like, oh, God. You know, he's just kind of going about his business.

“So Daisy comes in and she's like, can I take out the chocolate right now?”

And she goes into the walking, but she hears everything that happens. And Ben's like, you know, I don't really want to work around this edgy to die. It all right. You know, it's got to affect me. All right.

It's just got to affect me. I can't take it. Cookie. Cookie. Cavalieries.

You work around. You know, she, Ellie's a good day, Ben. It's like, okay. That's great. But this is very different to how I act.

Snickers. Snickers. Get over it, Ben. Okay. Get over it, Ben.

Get over it, Ben. Get over it, Ben. Get over it, Ben. I'm putting it. Snickers signuses.

Get over it, Ben. So, Daisy's just like making that face, like she's loving this, but you know, also like trying to hide behind a shark who'd re-board.

There's like never in my life, have already seen somebody go with their boss and the galley like this. Never!

[laughs] It's a band like, "You see, I got deal with what you're doing to me right now." "Hey, no, cupcakes." You know, "Oh, those are she would be pending, don't go make her mouth cupcake after you just call me a snicker, say this is not right." The cupcake is moving the party part.

You think that's right? This girl throws me out of the water with her directness. If you can't deal with it, then don't fucking study. How about that? Brown.

So, the guests are just being receiving a shark who re-board from Ellie. I'm from Daisy. And Ellie is just like washing dishes. And she's just mumbling, "Look at you, fucking wig, no, that's that. It's f**k it, it's f**k it.

Maybe that's your first old vegetables for milk and don't think so. Maybe if you did, it's probably skim milk, don't even do good milk." [laughs] I wouldn't even give cucumber for these. So now we go to the guests at the bar and Daisy serving the shark who re- And Daisy is, she sees Jason. She's like, "It's time to stand there."

And he's like, "Yeah, well, guess what she needs?" "They enterries." She's got a set-up. "They enterries have got to be set." Well, I'm staying out of that.

“Oh, that's what's right to a time for me.”

I really don't like confrontation like that, and I f**ked Gary. [laughs] Yeah, so Jen has like, "That's so ass, does it smell come on?" There's there's like, "Hin, where's that to HIN?" Say, "This is what I want for my team to be like.

Where's that to HIN?" That's like, "Yeah, that's a good bit of drill to HIN boundary." Oh, I like that for you. So back in the galley. That's dashing us already.

Next task! Oh, hold on, hold on there. My little candy cane coplia. All right. Oh, damn it.

Did I just say that? I didn't mean, all right. Just hold on. Just hold a liner. Is that touch in name, right?

A liner? All right. Sorry that.

Let's stick with my first name.

Yes, Elena.

I don't know what it does.

That has got me meme. So, I think I have. Everyone's changed into red.

“And they's like, "Alysia, go get started on the rooms."”

So they're sitting at for dinner. And Daisy tells Mike to help Alicia return down to everything. And we start. The food starts coming out. This crispy pork belly.

There's Brussels sprouts. There's an onion salad. There's a Parmesan crisp. It's all delightful stuff. Can I just say, I am so sick of Brussels sprouts.

They have had their day. Let them go. Okay. Everybody is still serving Brussels sprouts. It's like it's this trendy new thing.

You remember when Brussels sprouts became like trendy. And everyone's like, "Oh my God. We hated them when we were young. But gosh, they're a little bossomicking. I'm going to put them in the oven for a while.

They are just to let, they are not. They are not. I'm sick of everybody pretending they're good. They're not delicious. They're sour and they taste like pee.

And they smell like pee. And I don't want them. I'm sick of seeing them. Find a new vegetable. If they're roasted properly, they are absolutely delicious.

“I think if they're roasted in crispy and crunchy and like,”

but sort of softened inside, I think they're delicious. If they're under cooked, or they're boiled, they're not great. But I will say, "Hey, they can't." But what I will say though. Okay, but what I will say is that the novelty of Brussels sprouts

has passed, I think. Like if I see them on a menu, I'm not necessarily like, "We gotta get the Brussels sprouts."

However, if we do get them, I'm always happy.

But I mean, right now cabbage has, really is having its moment. And that's basically like the bigger version of a Brussels sprout. It's just like a giant Brussels sprout. Like cabbage is where it's at right now.

Cabbage is exciting. But just good. Yeah, I'll go. I can just like the new trendy thing. Cabbage Brussels sprouts, I just feel like it's over. You know, it's like shipwrap in your house.

It was cute. It's time to end it. Do I blame Joanna Gaines for Brussels sprouts? Like Joel. I could though.

Also, I'm sick of beat and go to salads. They're everywhere, and they need to stop. Just stop it. I've got something to find these new foods. Okay, we got something.

Okay, there's a lot to take in. There's a lot to walk back here. He doesn't like beats. But maybe he could do a spin on this for some good BPM moments. Okay.

Wow, here's what I have to say.

Beat and go to his salad. Brussels sprouts. Like if you see it on a menu, it is dated. Like this is, it's dated. However, however.

Beat and go to his salad. Still kind of as delicious. Like, I mean, it can be. I just need new things.

“And I think, especially, it's like a pescatarian.”

There's not a lot for me to eat, which is my own fault, right? That's my choice. But I think people, people, it's my choice, I should say. But people just are like, okay. Well, just we need something vegetarian.

So make Brussels sprouts and beaten goat cheese salad. And it's everywhere. And it's like, oh, it's the novel to his gone. The novel to his gone and like more. It's just, I think it, I think both those dishes are obviously quite delicious.

I'm always happy to have them. But maybe at like a pot luck. I think if I'm going to a restaurant and I see it, I'm not as excited. That being said, there's a restaurant here in L.A. called Petitwa. And they have a beaten goat cheese salad that I ordered.

And I was like, well, this is so nice. You said, maybe I'm going to order it anyway. And I was like, floored by how delicious it was. I was like, I told a chef. I was like, this is the best beaten goat cheese salad I've ever had.

I feel like. So like, it really can be transcendent, but it's just it's not exciting anymore. And I think on a good. On a yacht. Just a board.

Yeah. It's just, we could be doing better. Yeah. There's mortal life. You know what I mean?

So Alicia has sent to do turn downs. And then, yeah, you know, whatever dinner is served. So Alicia is bossing Mike around, which he loves. So let's be extra digital in on toilet paper. And also like the side cabinets.

Because that was feedback from who? If that feedback from from a previous child. Interesting. Very interesting. Alicia.

So you'll be a stewardess in no time. Could me teaching. Teaching. He's like, ah. Just need it to be.

Um, then Jason is now doing this thing where he's like sort of standing in the door where the garlic, like looking in like, they can't see me. And as long as they can't see me. I can't see them. I'm like, well, you both actually, they can see you.

You're not getting in. You're not getting in. They see you right there, Jason. Jason's way. He's like, I'm going to go down to the galley.

And I'm going to deal with this right now. And then you just kind of stance behind the doorway and looks. And it's like, I'm cold. The enemy in my name is down here, the enemy. Um, I'd like to, I'd like to come things down.

I'd like to offer you both something delicious. Eat. This is a Chinese bowel. It does have some dairy in it. It's a dairy bowel or it's like, call it a bowel jewelry.

It's a boundary. You got boundaries. God, that's not enough. I didn't think.

So, um, Jim and Daisy are going over tomorrow's gay wedding that they're going to be throwing.

And, uh, we hear the guest. One of them's like, Oh, my God. We're going to be wearing based on our wedding because we're not version. We're like, Oh, my God. That's how like, it's gay people.

Oh, my God. Get people up. All right.

“So then basically, my virgins doesn't mean you have to like,”

then like your next option is beige. Might as well just go with like a focal bread or something like that. Like, you're released from the white. Do something bigger. Like, you know what?

To show our how sexy our love life is. We're going to wear beige. Well, I do have a lot of sex. I'm not going to wear white, but I have sex with someone. I, some old man, I picked up at the Tommy Bahamas store.

So it's, it's going to be beige. It's going to be beige. Don't tell Alex McCord. She may show up in matching color. That's a throwback.

Do you guys remember? I wasn't. See you running.

Remember when Alex McCord wore, we're beige.

She like a wedding in quag or something. And Jules Aaron's like, How could see we had the beige? The wedding. You can't let cream colors at the wedding. It's absolutely inappropriate.

This exactly what she would do. Uh, I'm sorry, Jules Aaron. You've been canceled from this recap. That bend just had. Well, I didn't even say something.

Why, like, why is it? Well, we're only seeing beige outfits. What happens all the white outfits? What happened all the white outfits? What happened all the white outfits?

Might as well as to understand all the beige. Mershows. Here comes one right now. So now we cut to the guests. And yeah, they're, they're still talking about beige because they're them.

So then Daisy finds Mike and Alicia. And orders some red wine and champagne for his turn down. And she's like, You got to get this.

“It's very important for romantic turn down.”

Okay. Red wine and champagne. And so Jason is continuing to kind of stand in the doorway. Blinking blankly.

And they're still serving food.

This is grouper with pistachio and roasted tomato. Now there. Thank you. There. There's a lot of Brussels sprouts.

Did you mean to serve a refreshing dish at last? Wow. You just lost Padmese culinary cup with your Brussels sprouts. But you want it back with your grouper. Congratulations.

Still a bit. All right. I've got to throw. All right. Joao.

Joao. I might need a hand in here, please. Because we need to like rotate these dishes. Please. And though.

That is my job. That is my job rotating dishes. How dare you? This is my job rotating dishes. You will not give someone else my rotating dishes.

Jump. When I was young, I used to rotate stones in the town square. So I could buy myself heavy cream. The special time for me. When I went to town, I would rotate wishes.

One wish with not to have to sell milk. The other wish with not to have to sell fruit. The other wish. It was a cycle. It was a cycle.

I'm not going to buy. I once had to spend three full days rotating pebbles in town square just so I could afford pineapple. Yeah. All right.

Fine. Great. You do it. Why don't accept it? Okay.

You're not going to do this shit to me. I don't accept that. Ever again. I am this locator. I have to say it is inappropriate to sass off your boss that way.

But I kind of loved it. I love that she's like, Oh, no, no, no, you're not going to now start pushing me out of my job. You're not going to start minimizing me. You're not going to do this to me. I am like, these are my responsibilities.

Is this a mundane task of rotating dishes? Absolutely. But it is my task. And you're not going to push me out of this. So I kind of like loved that she just.

Like two feet down stood up for herself. Even though professionally, probably not appropriate. I was cracking up because she just takes it. So far. But you know what?

People like Ben. Like he just laughs it off. You know, through most of that. And it's really getting to him. And it's funny.

It's like you treat people. How you want to be treated. Our teach people. How you want to be treated. I guess.

And she's definitely doing that. And yeah. And we've seen, by the way, we've seen some of the strongest women on this franchise. Go up in. We've seen Kate.

We've seen Hannah. We've seen. And whoever else.

“I think Ellie is the first person who has basically been able to just.”

Like. Like. Like. I'm not going to say shut up, Ben, or silence, Ben. But like really kind of halting.

I don't think he's ever been halted even by Kate ever before. Daisy is pretty good. But that deal. Daisy's too. I have to say.

Yeah. Daisy's like, don't you get me that. Don't you get me that. Don't you get me that. Yeah.

Don't you get me that. Daisy's. I kind of loved it. It's so hard. Um.

So it's pretty good. No, you're. I think you're right though. I think that she Ellie is going too far in a way, but it's also so fucking funny to watch.

And he's like, all right.

Well, she goes, okay. Do not fuck with me. I won't do my job. So what do you want me to please? And he's like, uh, I'd like to scrape all of that red stuff into a clean bowl.

Thanks rotate the place. Okay. I've got it. Shift. And also.

Well, the laundry that was retroactive for relaxation as long as I'm in a role. So, um, Daisy's like, oh, my gosh, the garlic is so tense and generous like. Oh, wow. Holy Stan.

“Have I wasn't lazy enough in a comfortable in the garlic?”

Plast this out of the gun. I feel uncomfortable. Holy Stan. I'm trying to work. I've got dinner service.

I know. Quiet. Jada. And now we go back to Mike and Alicia, and she's still bossing me around. She's like, remember to do the day head.

Up until the day head. Did you. Definitely take a hand towel because I know that needs a new one. He's like, at least just younger than me. She's a lot less mature than everybody on this boat.

And she's already failed in the jelly. So it could turn to my skin when Alicia tries to delegate to us. I just can't take it anymore. Okay. It's under my implants.

So Lisa's like, oh, I'm quite good at delegating because I know exactly what needs to be done.

For instance, when cleaning a room, you always leave a pan on top of the closet.

And a little bonbon at the bottom of the bed inside the covers with a feet are. Well, I already worked the days in trial. I don't need extra management. Mike needs management, and I'm management. Are you able to make that box up to the primary?

And he's like, oh, good, damn it. So he just goes off and we see a flashback of five seconds ago. Where days he's like, Coach, I take some water and champagne and flowers on some chocolates. Up to the-- up to the-- up to the change down or whatever. And Lisa's like, do you have the checklist?

Go get the checklist. And he's like, oh, that's a bunch of me around them. But I feel like Alicia and Mike remind me of two kids at recess. Like role-playing, like they're in an office, right? Like, yeah, just seem like walking around the playground.

And one's like, I need my reports right now. I'm like, I can't give you the reports. But you need the reports. I'm your manager. And you're like, oh, that's cute.

The kids are pretending like they're like having real jobs. But of course, their children have no idea what they're talking about.

“And I feel like that's what-- that's what's happening with these two,”

which is like, I'm management. Make sure you know what you're doing. Don't forget to wipe down the door knob. And you have to use vegetable oil to do it to make it nice and shiny. I don't want to be delegated about that.

And they-- they're both constantly trying to tell us that they know more than everybody, but mother one of them knows anything. It's so fucking funny. So now the tables are being cleared, and chocolate fondong comes out, and everybody's like, I'm a guy.

Then it's the bus. It's the bus, yes! Ben is like beige. Ben is beige at a wedding. So that's--

So then we can have to the bar, and Mike is asking Jennifer a tray, and she's like, "Don't take it like this. The just storm a tray. You got a pen.

Something on it like a napkin. Something on it like a napkin. No, I put a cloth on it, darling. Darling, darling. I got it.

I got it. I got it. I got it. All right, Ellie, I'll be back in a little bit. Bipsy snooze.

Bipsy snooze. Sorry about that. I'm in. Baby. Grab it.

What? Baby, grab it. I'll stand two feet in it. Baby, grab it. Don't grab it.

Why are you saying those things? Something. Oh, there you go. So he goes out and Alicia comes in and she's like, "Are you all right now?"

She said, "Oh, I had blop with Ben." He goes, "Oh, my God. Honey, don't please so sensitive." And when he said that, I went off. I said, "Don't you fuck with me ever again.

I'm this relative." I got it. That's why I couldn't do it. Also, I had no idea what to do in the kitchen. I put a knife in the cheesecake.

They didn't like that. Well, I put them in place for both of us. And so Alicia is like dancing and spaking herself like, "Yes, girl." So meanwhile, Mike is getting things ready still, but then he goes down to the pantry and he's like, "Good, I'm thirsty.

All the time. I'm thirsty. All the time." And then we just see him chugging, kind of leaning around. Meanwhile, guests are clearing and heading to the bed. Well, everything make it to the room on time.

So Clay, who is basically like Nathan Leans character

in the bird cage is like, "Oh, God. Hey, there's no water champagne in our room. Can someone help us, Jenna?" I'm so sorry.

“Is there some wine and champagne that you can get in here?”

I don't know why I give him a Southern accent, but that was the vibe I suddenly felt right. He's not Southern at all. But, Jenna's like, "What the fuck?" She's like, "Mark, Mark, Mark."

They don't have that champagne or the wine. Can he bring the champagne to the vice-market? And, Jenna's like, "No, that took a lot of a long time. To get hot spot, get must be done, Mark. Before we get to this room, I got to help if you need help.

And it's like, "Yeah, who's going to be here?"

Come on, bring it in now." So, of course, he brings the stuff. He brings the flowers and everything. But, like, why did it take him so long to ask for that so long ago? How did he not bring red wine in a bucket of ice?

Was she in pain in it down to the room right away? Because he's leaning and spraying his hair and drinking, and just taking forever. So, Daisy sees Jenna and she's like, "What's the primary pet stop about the champagne?" "No, I have a self-confidence. The thing is, I said, "How can time and manage to find an off-blocker?"

For fuck's sake. Okay. Well, Ella, if I can explain why wasn't my self-taste, and I'm in a swelts-stasperilla, it's because, you know, it was the first time I didn't really have you helping me with food prep. And that was fine because you were doing other stuff.

Like, yelling at me. A lot.

“That's why I was like, in my head, it would remind me of when I was throwing a wedding”

that I paid for and never attended myself. I'm also sensitive now.

So, how do you feel your reaction to what all was? When my reaction was justified because you are belittling me, and I stood up for myself, which I would continue doing. Okay. Well, glad we settled that one. Can you just go to bed, please, Toffee Tendon. Please.

(laughs) You don't tell me to get out of here. Well, when does your job finish? Do you? When I clean up in this finished, I'm like, you!

I don't leave the galley until it's fucking clean. Well, she's not going to let him make up with her. She's like, no. I'm done. I really thought, like, okay, dinner service is done. Tendons can come back down again. Everything will be fine. Like, no, why are you complaining just to find you?

Shut the fuck up, you stupid bitch. So then, he's like, okay, I guess I'll just go to my room now. It's like, are you angry right now? Are you angry? You go biscuits?

“Like, don't fucking try me, man. Don't shut fucking try me.”

He's like, are you threatening that? I mean, I'm not threatening you. I'm just saying don't try me. I'm like poisonous appetizer. Don't try me. Oh, you are intimidating. You're swearing at me as well.

You're swearing at me as well. Oh, shut the fuck up, Ben. Congratulations, you've reached the end of part one. For two part recap, for part two, go look for the recap that says part two. Hmm.
