Jake Clopton is a commercial real estate financer
based in Chicago.
Jake will be joined by a group of business associates.
Primary would like a steel drummer to be playing
when he and his guests eat their first meal aboard.
Somehow I think he'll challenge you on every level.
Are you excited for the D.R.?
She's got me hook line and sinker, baby.
I got the wheels in motion and we have your second stew.
- Hello, hello. - Hi.
What's going on?
I met this girl on Tinder.
I've never met her
and we both have nudes of each other on our phone.
Charter guests don't arrive until one
and Captain Lee comes back today.
Oh.
I don't want to cry.
- Oh, Cap. - Aw.
It's like we were in the trenches together.
I hope that they show
Captain Lee how far they've come.
I'm so Goddamn glad to be back.
I might feel better than a dog having its belly rubbed.
Back to the normal almost.
It's an emotional rollercoaster, Ben.
Captain's gone, oh, the Captain's back.
Past Tinder flings appearing.
Okay, eight guests.
This should be fun.
Everything's just pulling my heartstrings,
I can't do this much longer.
I think actually we get a group discount
on the end of season counseling.
- I think we should, mate. - Yeah.
I feel great.
Aw.
You're getting all teary-eyed on me.
- Well, I missed you. - I missed you too.
You look good.
I really like Sandy. I've got mad respect for her.
Super, super thankful.
But at the same time, I love Captain Lee.
He means a lot to me as a person and not just my Captain.
- I'm happy that you're back. - So am I.
- Yay. - Yes.
All crew provisions are on the dock.
Oh.
Okay, I just want to put that in the lobby.
Oh, what lovely smells.
Why isn't it opening?
There's water, juices.
Fraser in the galley.
Mother----er.
- Yeah. - That's really weird.
Oh, well.
Yeah, we go through this way here.
- Thank you. - Why is it so full?
Mommy is one proud breasted woman.
- On my teat. - On your teat?
On my nipple-lina.
Nips, nips. Here we go.
Wait, are you on the top bunk, Ben?
Yeah, I'm on the top bunk.
I feel bad for Tony the other day
because sometimes I sleep nude.
He woke up and he just had his dong in his face.
Thank you, sir. It's good to be back.
Yes, you can. Coming up.
Okay, I'll go up and clean.
Sounds better than organizing.
I'm doing very well.
It's really good to see you, Captain. How are you?
I'm well. Good to see you.
Great to see you. Goodness grief.
Things are good.
Guests are coming at one. I'm sure you're aware of that.
- We got a new crew member. - We do.
She arrived about an hour ago.
She's a chief stew on her previous boat.
She absolutely will.
- Tropical cocktails. - Yeah, of course.
They just start thinking in your head
because you know how to bartend.
Yeah.
We will. Anything you need, sir, I'm here for you.
Bye.
This looks pretty good, to be honest.
You're just leaving as it is.
Frickin' amazing.
We're going to get on just fine.
It's such a shame that you haven't been here
like the whole time.
No way!
Whoa.
And the plot thickens.
Oh, this is going to be horrific, isn't it?
Poor Ben.
Oh.
- Rachel? - Yes, sir.
Would it be possible to do a guest lunch before three?
Yeah.
For the avant-garde Caribbean cocktails,
it's each cocktail is paired.
Do you know what you're doing?
We'll come up with something.
I've got the steel drummer coming on board at two.
So, today, we've got a few requests here and there.
We've got a steel drummer at lunch and a cocktail pairing.
- Like, I've never done a ----ing cocktail pairing before.
Why are we letting guests choose what they want to do?
I'll never know, but we've got a cater towards their needs.
All right, so we've got Caribbean lunch then.
Yeah.
It's not funny.
Oh, man, you guys are killing me.
I am a bit disappointed.
Never been in a situation like this
where there's another girl involved,
but I don't really know where they stand.
It is----ing yachting. How serious can it be?
Well, you've only got eight days.
How long ago were you on your last boat?
Four years.
Wow.
Were you second or chief?
I ended it as chief stew.
Oh, that's cool.
- That's good fun. - Yeah.
That's awesome.
I'm a little bit concerned
with how much experience my stew has got
because she's a chief
and she's actually been a chief longer than I have.
I essentially don't want to be judged,
but this is my boat now and I know how it runs.
If she can jump in and do what's being told of her,
then she'll have no issues.
No.
I mean, oh well, you won't be.
No, you won't.
Attention all crew, I need everyone
in the Sky Lounge immediately.
Copy.
A little different than when I left.
Well, as you can see, I am back,
and it's great to be back here. It really is.
Thank you all for cooperating with Sandy.
She did us a solid coming in at the last second
and bailing my ass out.
It felt so wrong to leave.
- I was just madder than a ----ing pissed on chicken.
While I appreciate Sandy coming in and really helping us out,
I'd be Goddamned if I wasn't going to finish what I started.
- Welcome back, Captain. - Thank you.
- Welcome back. - Thank you.
Let's get after it.
I'm just going to help sundeck with the lounges.
Can you give all the surfaces a wipe?
Me and Angel are going to be the same bathroom schedule.
- All right. - Oh, filthy.
Oh, it is so good to be here. You have no idea.
Guests walking down the dock.
What's this guy's name?
- Jake.- - Shakin' Jake.
- Hello. Welcome. - How's it going?
- How are you? - Good. Nice to meet you.
- Captain Lee. My pleasure. - Jake, nice to meet you.
Fraser, nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
You meet frat bros like this all the time in Miami.
It's like they're going to be loud and obnoxious.
They're going to think they're amazing.
You can't go down the street without seeing a bunch of them.
So, you know, to me, I'm like, all right,
I feel like we're back in South Florida.
- Welcome, champagne. - Thank you.
Welcome aboard St. David.
Thank you.
I'm going to have Mr. Olander give you guys
a tour of the boat.
And I think we'll just get underway right after that
if it's all right with you guys.
Let's do it. We're ready.
Get the party started.
- Let's get at it. - Let's do it.
This here is our wonderful sundeck.
It's the prime spot for tanning and for chilling.
Ohh...
Down this corridor here, we've got the queen cabin here,
and then we've got the twin here.
Amazing.
And through here, you have the primary cabin.
Oh, sh--. This is insane.
This is sultan style right here.
And then up here, we have our bed.
In the mornings, you have the opportunity of waking up early.
All right.
Now we're getting impressive.
Oh, my God.
And I'm already in paradise, bro.
What I'm going to do is allow you all to decide who goes where
and we can allocate your bags to your rooms.
Crystal, if you want to share, there's just two floors.
- It's at your disposal, then. - Thank you.
Of course.
All right. Let's get ready to depart.
- Ross, cut her loose and go. - Copy that, Captain.
Stern line off.
Let's do it. Let's go up to the deck, guys.
That is all lines in on board.
All clear astern. All clear astern.
There we go. That's what I'm talking about.
Captain, foredeck, 25 feet to the dock and opening.
You're all clear to swing on port side.
No traffic.
12 feet opening off the dock.
Being behind the wheel again feels great.
It's where I belong, where I should be.
It's like riding a bike, but it's a big bike.
Stern clear of the channel. Stern is clear of the channel.
Copy that. Thank you, gentlemen.
Thank you.
I miss being here. Feels good.
WelcomeStDavid. S.T. David.
Thank you.
My Wi-Fi is suckmydick.
Four shots on my mark.
And drop now.
Oh, man.
Captain, that's four shots on the water line.
Copy that, lock it in right there.
Chef's going to show you the menu.
And then you're going to be on the bar
while doing service with Hayley doing these.
- Copy. - Yeah, it's a pairing.
It's a pairing, cool.
But the gazpacho, just think normal gazpacho.
- It's light - A light.
And then local white fish, thinking turmeric,
ginger, cinnamon.
These guests are crazy.
They've requested a seafood extravaganza
and also pair on top of that with beverages.
But extremely hammered guests do not pair well
with a pairing menu.
So they're like, ah, man, I really want to get out there
and----ing boogie.
Yeah, they don't care.
Have you ever ordered a single in your life?
What's that?
Oh, that's, yeah, when I was a child.
Okay, this is great. Put me into the deep end.
Deck crew, deck crew. Fraser.
Can I get an update on Ross and the steel drummer?
Me and the steel drummer should be united in 15 minutes.
We're just going to launch tender now.
Okay, copy, thank you.
So you're a big IT guy? I don't know that.
I worked in IT for about 12 years before jumping ship.
No pun intended.
And getting into the mortgage business.
I'm literally so puzzled.
I have no idea what I'm making.
Can we do something with grapefruit with tomato?
The gazpacho?
The cucumber is going to be in the gazpacho.
Oh, right.
You could a cucumber based rum drink.
No.
I'm stressing my tits off, like...
This is----ing daunting.
So after our tonic, light mint mojito
which is going to go with the coconut.
Just jumped on.
I don't know Rachel's type of cooking.
- And they also add ----ing cocktail
to match the----ing dish.
It's not easy.
Caramelized. What's good caramelized?
Cinnamon.
There's nothing I hate more than IT.
I'm a Luddite.
No, you don't want to do what they're eating.
- Caramelized pineapple. - Okay, wait.
- Cinnamon. - Oh, my----ing God.
I've got to just kind of fake it till you make it,
and I pretend that I know where everything is
and what I'm doing.
The caramelized,
you want to have the spiced rum cinnamon?
- Yeah. - Yeah, fruit punch.
I've just got to----ing take it by the balls
and wing it.
You literally are being thrown so into the deep end.
It's fantastic.
[bleep]
Hey, matey.
Previously on "Below Deck..."
Great time.
Copy that.
Ready for lunch.
Let's make our way this way.
If that's okay, we'll go through here.
- Take a seat wherever you like. - [steel drummer playing]
Who's not happy right now?
Everybody better be the happiest they've been in years.
They're going to be doing a cocktail pairing
with each and every course.
Be warned that it might be a heavily fueled meal.
Oh, I like the sound of that.
That's a country club laugh. You get it only twice in a day.
- Ready? Go. - Thank you.
Thank you.
Hello, everybody.
For your first course,
you have a locally grown heirloom tomato gazpacho.
Bon appetit. Take it away.
Thank you.
We've got a gin and lightly-flavored
elderflower tonic.
Please do enjoy.
Oh, it was amazing.
Okay.
Try it with the gin. It actually works out well.
- I'll keep the full one. - Sounds great.
There's more coming your way, don't worry.
Fraser, I'm just bringing up these tequila shots.
It's literally cocktail after cocktail after cocktail.
Things are going to be broken later.
I just hope it's not me or my soul.
- Smashing it. - Smashing it.
It's only your first day?
Jesus Christ. Ain't nothing but wind.
Thanks for jumping straight in, babe.
Feels very natural how to get around.
No, I was talking to Leigh-Ann.
Were you so awkward?
It was like we really want to hang out.
- Like sexy. - No. Well, obviously.
Yeah.
But like, catch up as well.
Now things are different.
Obviously, I've got this connection with Camille,
and I'm going to see her in a week's time
in the Dominican Republic.
Leigh-Ann, we have this amazing connection online,
and I know I'm going to have to talk to both of them
about each other.
This is----ing sh--.
I went up to her now.
I'll be like, look, I'm seeing somebody else.
Hello, Chica.
- But let her down easy. - Let her down easy.
Amazing.
Yeah, it's going to be stunning.
For your main course, season basmati
with a jumbo prawn and then a little chili oil
inside of a coconut.
To compliment this dish, you've done a rum fruit punch.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
[bleep]
- It's amazing. - Wow.
We should blow this banana up more often.
It's great for sitting on.
I know.
I feel like we're going to miss the sun pretty soon.
Let's go down to the bar,
grab a cocktail, get on the water.
Oh, I got to shave my legs tonight.
So hairy.
Here we go.
Hey, guys. What's going on?
- This is going on. - Yeah, yeah.
Almost hit 30.
[laughing]
Ross, Lee.
Go ahead, captain.
Yeah. Are you docking that thing and coming on board?
If it gets too crazy out there, let me know.
Copy, will do.
I want that banana in the water.
I want that banana.
Everyone is in the water.
Woo!
Ha, ha, ha.
- How are you? - Good.
How are you doing, Leigh-Ann?
Haven't stopped.
- As long as they're having fun. - Good job.
- And we're keeping on our toes. - Thank you.
Yeah, they're really enjoying themselves.
Stoked, yeah.
I'll take your life jacket.
Take it, you bitch, take it.
I think these guys are pretty fun.
Oh, yeah.
- It'll probably be a long night. - Definitely...
Well, you're doing a great job, Leigh-Ann.
- I appreciate it. - Thank you, Captain.
Thank you so much.
- Yeah. Such a pleasure. - Thank you.
Jake, I want to discuss dinner with you.
Because it was quite a late one.
We're recommending doing canapés at seven.
Then we'll move up to dinner after that.
And I think the captain's joining you this evening.
- Am I correct? - Sure.
[grunts]
Massage, massage, massage, massage.
You think that they're hammered?
- Shall we? - What are we doing?
All right, let's go to shower.
That's pretty----ing the most awkward interaction
with a crew member I've ever had.
No, I don't believe you.
You don't have dinner?
No, [bleep] dinner.
I don't need to eat.
- One of those. - Oh.
Are you up for the party tonight?
- Are you on lates? - Yeah.
I'm on lates, too.
Hmm.
How's everyone's day, then?
It's good.
They love the water toys.
What do you want to know?
All the juicy parts.
Who's hooked up with who? Who's hooking up with who?
There's two stews that have been let go so far.
Have you hooked up with one?
Naughty.
- Yeah. - No.
Yeah.
She was cool.
- Beautiful. - Good juice.
- Cheeky. - I'm going back up to galley.
Okay. I'm going to go on break.
I know there is going to be more drama coming.
The ghost of Camille is over there.
And then we have all that sexual tension
that you were accumulating for a long time
while you guys were talking.
I know it's going to be like, boom.
And I just hope it's not in the cabin.
Oh, [bleep], here we go.
Coming up...
The whole bottle is coming up. All right.
Give it a little bit of it there.
I've never seen someone drink so much in my life.
I'm walking...
Oh, [bleep].
Here we go.
I'm thirsty. I'm thirsty, bitch.
How much time do you need, honey?
Put the parchment down,
and then we're going to roast these guys.
- Ready? - Yeah.
- Yeah, let's go. - Busy day.
Why don't we have the captain sit right here?
Wait, Captain Lee's coming to dinner tonight?
Yeah.
Actually, Angel, scoot over. I'm sitting next to him.
- Oh, [bleep]. - Get out of here.
- Hey, Katie. - Hi, Ben.
Love you, love you, love you.
Hey!
How you doing, man?
Good.
- This is going to go in here. - That's good.
I----ing love them.
For tonight's dinner, it's time to celebrate.
I get to be back with Captain Lee.
I can't wait to knock his socks off.
- Goes down, and you squish him? - Yeah.
Goes down, yeah.
We're going to do a caprese salad with diced tomatoes,
and then the piece de resistance.
Salt encrusted branzino.
Wow, what's that?
It's... all it is salt and egg white.
Oh, is it?
Go big or go home. I need a tip.
Mama likes nice sh--.
All right, cool. That's in.
- Do you guys see the stain? - Oh, that one there.
Yeah, they've spilt everything here.
We have a local heirloom tomato salad.
It's amazing.
Oh, my goodness, that is a very good taste.
Oh, lovely. I can do that.
Just take it away.
Captain Lee, I told them you're not allowed
to have a banana on a boat.
It's a long-honored tradition
that you never bring bananas on a fishing boat.
- Really? - Bad luck.
You won't catch any fish.
Do you want it all over the top, Rach, as well?
- No. - Just around the side.
Just walk up to some random sport fisher sometime.
You may not want to ask him about his banana.
You know, like, can I see your banana?
No, I don't think so, buddy.
That looks stunning, Rachel.
We're ready to roll. All right, I'm coming.
We're going to bring the baked fish up.
Hey, thank you.
Get the one on top of my hands.
- Am I sitting too close to you? - No, not yet.
Okay.
So, this evening, we've prepared
the branzino entrusted with egg white salt.
So, what we're going to do is we're going to go ahead
and take the fish out of the salt,
and then we will come by
and silver service you on your plate.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- Thank you, chef. - Wow.
This is really good.
It's good, right?
- Jesus Christ, this is good. - It's phenomenal.
All right, I'm going to go ahead and see
if Rachel needs some help.
I actually moved from Florida to Chicago.
I moved there to trade.
Now I got roots there, so I have three kids.
Yes, you have a beautiful wife and three kids.
Your love story was pretty fast, I must say.
It was.
So, within one year, they dated,
moved in together, got engaged in pregnant.
They knew. They both did.
And they're still working?
She's shagging him.
Well, I would highly doubt it.
It's definitely a little strange that the primary
is sharing a cabin with his sister-in-law.
Ultimately, we have no idea who these people are
or what situations they're getting up to
sort of after dark.
But something doesn't really add up.
Hayley, Tyler, Fraser,
we can get started on turndowns now.
Copy.
When my wife and I met
and when anybody asks us, how did you meet?
She says, we met through friends.
But he doesn't remember the first time he met me.
Ooh.
That's what it's going to say on my tombstone.
"You should have remembered me the first time!"
You wouldn't be dead.
Thank God Leigh-Ann is going to be up with me.
Absolutely.
Oh.
Ew.
I'm an antique. Hard to believe, huh?
That's awesome.
You look not a day over 44.
God, you are so full of it, Angel.
Panna cotta.
I'm ready, y'all.
This evening for your final course,
a panna cotta done with Tahitian vanilla bean.
Thanks, everybody.
Wow. That looks good, right?
- Yeah. - It's phenomenal.
What do you think about the new crew dynamics?
Leigh-Ann.
Yeah, and Ben.
Oh, yeah. He's definitely awkward.
Yeah.
I feel like he doesn't know what to do.
I agree with flirting at work.
It's so evident that we have this connection
and it is getting stronger as the days go on.
I just wanted to have physical fun.
Just using you as a cushion.
Nice sweaty pillow.
I'm definitely happier when I'm having sex, for sure.
It's more serious than just,
you know, playing around at work.
It's not been regular enough recently.
It's starting to hurt.
Actually, that's probably one of your fetishes, isn't it?
Shut up.
I will bid you adieu.
Thank you so much for having me.
Yeah, thank you very much for hanging out.
Will you hold this open for one second?
Here, one, two...
Angel.
[laughing]
I'm going to go put my swimming suit out.
We're going to the hot tub.
You got this.
Tyler, you know what to do on the lates?
Yeah.
Yeah, you're sending messages on Instagram.
You're like, sorry, I couldn't help myself,
but I really had to send you a message.
No, I'm not.
I couldn't resist adding you in here.
Oh, I see.
I see you're a yachty also.
Great chat. Yeah.
Are you guys wanting drinks? Are you good?
The chef's gone to bed.
You've got deck hands now.
We have a couple of drink orders.
[chattering]
He's like, can we get something else?
And I'm like, man, you have deck hands.
[shouting]
Alrighty.
Cheers, guys.
Okay.
That whole bottle's coming up.
I've never seen someone drink so much in my life.
I like love my frozen margaritas,
but this is just to your next level.
[shouting]
Got the tequila.
How are you guys doing? Are you guys all right?
Look at these calves.
Anybody sees some calves like this.
It's time to get them to bed
because they're a pain in the bum.
- One for the road, guys? - One, two, three.
All right.
I hope you guys get back.
All right. I'll walk you back.
Whoa, whoa.
Where was that?
Was it upstairs?
Oh, sh--.
You're good. You're good.
I don't think so.
See you, guys. See you tomorrow.
You guys are the best.
All right, I'm going to clear up.
I've done the waters. I've done the wines and all of that.
Anything else?
Cool. I'm going to knock off.
[snoring]
- Okay. - Thanks.
Coming up...
They're now asking me for gazebos and things like that.
- Who is? - The beach setup crew.
Is little miss chief stew
trying to get her chief stew boots on?
People shouldn't be getting creative. That's my job.
Here we go.
[bleep]
Damn it.
Oh, God.
Leigh-Ann, look how tired she was,
look how she wrote Moscow Mule.
"Moscule Mule!"
She's great though.
Yeah, she's lovely.
I was terrible at school.
I left university without finishing,
and I felt like a failure.
And so I get incredibly insecure.
But I know that what I'm doing is working.
I just need to remember that I am still
the baddest bitch on board.
Do you want to make me a breakfast?
Darling, no.
Gesundheit!
Yeah, thanks.
[laughing]
Hmm.
Things that make you go hmm.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
How late did they stay up?
I last heard them about 1:30.
Two or so.
They were stronger than I thought they were.
We're really keen to try and do a beach set up.
Damn.
It would be really nice to have some weather to cooperate once.
One should be careful what one asks for.
I wanted to be back, I'm back.
Same Goddamn winds blowing.
They don't call them the Windward Islands for nothing.
So what I'm thinking is, this would be the beach.
It's going to be our best worst option.
Right.
Oh, I'm stuck.
Babe, arched.
Like a table.
The guests are coming.
That's the walk of a guest.
- Hello. - Could you get me some coffee?
Good morning. How are you?
- I'm good. - Did you sleep well?
- Oh, I slept great. - Yeah?
Right. Let's do it.
Do you want some breakfast, sir?
- Yeah. - What would you like?
- Scrambled. - Sounds very good.
- I'll do the same. - You'll do the same? Wonderful.
- Hi, darling. - Specials?
Scrambled.
All day.
How are you feeling?
I've been downstairs...
And the tequila's just been churning.
Mm-hmm.
Interior, interior, I'm plating now.
- Fraser? - Mm-hmm.
With the conditions, we need to really cut down
on what we're going to take.
It's a cluster[bleep] of disasters.
Yeah.
So, we have your breakfast.
Yeah.
We have to do a beach picnic, then?
- Yeah. - That actually looks amazing.
We could do games on beach and lunch on here.
That might have to be it.
Because I think because gazebos are going to disappear
wherever we put them.
We've just discussed weather.
We've got a bit of wind, as you can see.
We can take you in by boat.
We just can't land the boat on the beach.
No, I understand. Let's do it.
Which comes with the second part of the issue,
which is setting up a lunch.
Yeah.
All of your beach games on the beach,
we can set up a bar and we can do lunch after,
- because the bar can get wet. - Awesome.
- The food can't. - Cool.
- All righty. - We'll get that set up.
Awesome.
I want Jake to feed me grapes.
Wait, I want to feed you a raspberry
because it's tasted amazing.
We've got a plan now.
- How are you? - I'm pretty good.
- Sleep well. - I did sleep well. Yes.
So we're going to set up a basic bar on the beach.
- Yeah. - Take some snacks with us.
Yeah.
But we're going to do lunch on board.
Okay.
But I'm going to send you to the beach.
Oh, perfect.
I've been gifted the wonder of having someone
with chief stew experience.
I'm going to use that to my own advantage.
For once, I've taken a step back and I've trusted.
And boy, have I learned the hard way.
It's my responsibility to lead
and to delegate and I didn't see that first.
So an amazing lesson to learn.
Fraser, Fraser, Ross...
Copy, stand by.
- How are you doing? - Good. How are you?
- I'm good. - Very good.
I've just got a couple of things
that I'd like them to attend to in my cabin.
Like when I went in to take the shower this morning,
there's nothing there.
So I basically got dry cleaned this morning.
Good morning.
How are you feeling?
I don't know. I'm covered in bruises.
Oh!
Tony, I need you to stay.
I don't mind.
Oh, God bless you.
All right. You're good here.
Ready to smash us out?
- Ready. - That's ice cold.
That's unacceptable.
- Have fun. - Thank you, Tony.
- Good morning. - Thank you, Chris.
Can I get a latte, please?
I'll just drop you on it.
Hello.
- Long night. - Yeah.
- Sweet Jesus. - There we are.
Christ, what are you, a ninja? You are way too quiet.
I'm going to jump Leigh-Ann, and then I'll pass them to you.
We're all ready.
Look how fast I'm going down the beach.
There you go. Heavy, this is liquor.
All right.
Here you go, babe. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, let's do this.
Is this finished? Do we know?
- I am finished with that. - You are, lovely.
They're not going to have any shade realistically.
- Do we have a... - Canopy? No.
- No. - No?
No, they told us not to bring them.
Yeah.
Canopy? Yeah, we definitely need it.
I think, Fraser, he's trying to challenge me right now.
I always get thrown in the deep end,
and like, my whole life has been a challenge.
Like, I feel like I've been put on this earth
to----ing learn everything the hard way.
When I was 15, my parents would go through a divorce.
That was, like, really tough on me,
and that kind of led me to dropping out of school
when I was 18.
Went straight into trying to live the beach bum life,
where I kind of hit rock bottom
and was finding myself on the street.
And I was just like, I can't do this.
This whole surfer bum lifestyle
is not what I thought it was going to be like.
And then found out, yachting.
Give me a challenge, and I'll take you on.
Yes, give us time.
So, who's sharing rooms with... So, Mark's with who?
- Angel. - Angel.
Yeah.
Right, right, right.
Um, that's interesting.
I'm feeling sober, which is unacceptable.
Yeah, I don't like the idea of that either.
No, it's not good.
You get weird when you get sober.
- Do I? - Yeah.
You know me so well.
It's not you. I don't like it.
Ross, Ross, can we please get
two gazebo's over here at the beach?
It's quite hot.
Fraser, they're now asking me for the gazebo's
and things like that.
- Who is? - The beach setup crew.
Why?
It's games on a beach and a bar.
Yeah.
I have noticed with the Leigh-Ann joining our group,
with her having been a chief stew previously,
there's maybe the slightest of
power struggle in their department.
Just provide one.
Destroy a gazebo is what you're saying,
because in this wind, it will just get destroyed.
There's the slightest of tension.
Okay, that's about that.
Is little Miss chief stew
trying to get her chief stew boots on?
Because there's not one thing they need that wasn't packed.
Not one.
People shouldn't be getting creative.
That's my job.
All right, Tony, let's get two gazebo's ready.
I'll take them over. Just two matching gazebos.
All right, we've got to come up with some other games.
[bleep] the----ing cup. Give me it.
Let me see if I can do this.
- That'll work, Leigh-Ann. - No, look, look.
Can I get a Bloody Mary inside of a Bloody Mary, please?
What does that mean exactly, sir?
Just two Bloody Mary's, thank you.
Lovely.
---ing angel's a [bleep].
You just noticed this?
Nice the games arena.
Nothing's working.
- Because of the wind. - Yeah, it's the wind.
- The wind's----ed. - Yeah.
Oh, yeah, we grab that.
I'd be careful with these gazebos, too.
I love you, God!
Why is it so----ing hard just to make a leaf
point the right way?
You're wrestling a leaf over there.
Katie, we found the message that she sent first last night.
Oh, did you?
He messaged first?
Oh, my God, I knew it. Of course, he plays that
you messaged him first.
- No, you didn't. - No, no, no, no.
I think it's really weird when I see Leigh-Ann
and Ben flirting
because he's not being truthful.
He's obsessed with Camille.
- I miss you so much. - I miss you, too.
He needs to come clean with her
because this girl is creating more and more
feelings towards him
and is going to get crushed.
You definitely can't have your cake and eat it, too.
The best part is that we actually hadn't met
- until I stepped on the boat. - I know.
Yeah.
Yeah, two of those. Lovely.
- [sighs] ----ed.
Angel, aka Satan, would like...
He's a horrible man.
He didn't even look at me in the face
and he said, double shot Tequila.
Oh, no, that's vile.
He's such a little [bleep]. Go home.
In fact, you will be tomorrow.
Fraser, Fraser, Rachel.
Everything is on standby, packed and ready to go.
And the quesadillas are on standby
to be reheated, that's it.
Copy that.
Hello again. We're ready for you on the beach.
Whenever you're ready, just head to the swim platform
and we've got snacks for you guys going with you.
We've got drinks already set up there.
- It's going to be a fun day. - Awesome.
Pretty windy over there, isn't it?
All right, guys, ready to go.
Let's go. Vaminos.
What does he do?
He is a drill operator offshore.
My dad also works offshore.
What does he do?
He's an ROV pilot.
Oh, that was awesome.
My dad was never around much with my mother growing up,
so my relationship with her
would obviously be a lot stronger.
My dad is very emotionless.
I think I may have seen him cry once in his life
when his dad died.
And very traditional in his sense of values and ideals.
A man should be a man, and this is what a man does.
And every time I go home, my dad says,
oh, so do you have a girlfriend?
And I'm like, no, dad.
But that's kind of where it ends.
He's actually in Nigeria at the moment.
That's cool.
Come on.
That's going to be a disaster.
That was a good idea to do it this way
instead of doing lunch on the beach.
Yeah.
It would have been a disaster.
- You got it, Chris. - Thank you.
All right, guys, you're good.
- Oh, look. - Graceful.
It's a sh-- sandwich out there, so.
I don't like serving sh-- sandwiches.
Mm-mm.
And the primary doesn't like sandwiches.
But remember, the more bread you have,
the less sh-- you have to eat.
Welcome, welcome.
The girls are going to give you some drinks.
And then we've got a few games organized.
We've got some corn hole over there.
We've got sack rice, three-legged rice,
things like that.
We're going to incorporate drinking into it as well.
In 10 minutes, we'll get the drinks made
and we'll start these games, hey?
It's been a long time since I've been on a beach.
- I hate sand. - You hate sand?
I hate sand.
And salt water. So...
Hey!
What am I not good at? I don't know.
Being sober, that's number one.
I'm going to need to double over here.
Angel, drink more.
- Yeah. - What?
I've been drinking enough for all of us. Calm down.
The chips and salsa are so good.
Yeah.
13.
You know the best thing in the world is warm tequila.
Good fun.
There! It's over.
- Game over. - Game over.
All right, guys.
What is it like not to be me?
Oh!
After a spirited physical competition,
I really need to relax
That was more exercise than I wanted to.
Tony, Tony, Ross.
Are you available to help me turn the sundeck aft
back into sunbathing?
On my way.
This crew, I like them.
It's so chill, our crew now.
I can't detect one scintilla of animosity
towards another crew member.
- There's not. - How rare is that?
Yeah.
We all just know how hard every individual works.
Now I'm loving it.
Coming back into this, I feel great.
One of the things that I'm impressed with
is the cohesiveness of this crew.
Credit goes to Sandy.
Obviously, she did something right.
It's not like the normal feeling that you have
- at this point in the season. - Yeah.
Where everybody's just, their dicks in the dirt,
they're dragging, they're down.
And there it is.
Yeah.
- Oh, holy son of a... - Six.
I know.
Is it crazy? Is it awkward?
No, not at all.
But I think, I think me. I don't know.
I don't know what he's feeling.
Ben's just showing off his bod.
I know. He totally is.
Showing us your bod?
I mean, if I had a body like that, obviously.
I know, right?
Mmm. Ben.
He was totally doing that for me.
He's just such a smooth operator.
Like such a smooth operator.
Oh, my gosh. Why is he so----ing hot?
Mmm. Mmm. Okay, we're ready.
All right, Tony, let's get two gazebo's ready.
Everybody gets tequila except for Angel.
- He has to do gin. - A gin shot.
- Take a shot. - Oh, the shot.
Yeah.
Not all...
Well, hold on.
Oh my God.
Someone's going to throw up.
Fraser, how long do you think
they're supposed to stay at the beach?
I've got this horrible feeling that they're hating it
because I'm not there to make it amazing.
Three, two, one, go.
One, two, three.
[shouting]
I just know the weather's sh--.
You have great nipples.
That's an interesting observation.
The beach is sh--.
- Take a shot. - What is it?
It's alcohol.
Those guys are going to get so wasted
that I don't even think
they're going to know where they are.
Hopefully.
To our beach team. Thank you.
- Beach team. - Yeah.
Woo.
Tastes like success.
All right. Lunch. What----ing decor now?
Mmm. I love the orange and the green.
Oh, fantastic. About a thousand towels.
I swear people just use these towels
just to soak up water from the shower.
Can you please not do that?
What time are you doing lunch?
I don't know.
But I like that
because it means that they don't know either.
So it means that they're going to have fun
and then they're going to say, we're kind of peckish now.
Can we go back for lunch?
Mmm.
And I'm going to be ready to go.
Show me the twinkle. Fingers and the gloves again.
Oh, yeah. Nice.
That was great fun.
All right. While we're up, the next game.
How you doing?
So everything pretty much in the list is done.
No. You're going to come with me.
It would be so nice to have a decent----ing tender
where you can just... Ugh.
All right. I think everyone want a little bit
of a chill out for now.
It's getting boring up here.
Put your leg back down.
Yeah.
You guys want to head back?
Yeah, sooner rather than later.
Ross, Ross, Ben.
Hey, mate. We're all packed up over here.
Copy, on the way.
Tyler, Tyler, Fraser.
Can you prepare the welcome towels?
There you go.
Oh, holy sh--. There it is.
What the [bleep]?
Would you like a cold towel?
All right. Thank you, Tony.
These are only two plates, right?
Yeah.
Hi, cuties. Come on.
Whoa.
- Thanks, guys. - Thanks, Leigh-Ann.
Thanks, Ben.
- You're the best. - You're the best.
And then which one did you want the yogurt in?
Yeah?
It puts the lotion on the skin or it gets the hose again.
Oh, [bleep] me.
I literally don't know where you come up with all this stuff.
I steal sh--.
You're going to have so much PTSD after this job.
You know, you're a cool guy. And I'm stoked you're here.
And I'm stoked to be here, too, with you.
Fix your thing, you look dodgy.
This is actually medium.
Yeah, I can see.
Anyways...
Camille and I...
I mean, we're talking every other day.
We're calling each other babe.
Like, there's definitely some unfinished business between us.
Yeah, so Ben and I have probably, like,
been chatting for, like, over a year now,
and I'm so excited because, of course,
like, the chemistry was there on the phone
and now being on board with Ben actually being right here.
The chemistry is there. There's no brainer.
It'll be hard not to.
Yeah.
I mean, I wouldn't be able to resist.
I'm the type of girl that will go for what I want.
Honestly, like, there's not many guys like you out there.
Now I've got this other temptation here,
and, it's like, no, ah...
A rock and a hard place.
That's where I am at the minute.
Yeah.
Big smile. There it is.
- No awkward vibe. - Ah, look at that.
Take a photo.
This is going to be trouble.
She's going to be trouble.
I'm all in or nothing.
This boy better be ready.
Oh, boy.
Next on "Below Deck"...
Angel seems to have lost consciousness over there.
We think it might be fun to just let him go.
All right, bye.
Probably.
It's not nice to hear that
the person you like is hooking up with someone else,
but he did say that they're not together,
so I'm just going to go for it.
I just love playing with fire.
That can't hurt, can it? A little flirtiness?
Our primaries are Keith and Jolynn Hoogstad.
They obviously love bodybuilding.
I hate to jump the gun,
but they look a little bit intimidating.
Damn right.
