Whoever issued this, it’s not yours.
Big red flag.
I can’t leave the dock with you on board.
-Adios, amigo. -He didn’t even give me a hug.
Will you be the full-time bosun?
I would love to.
I think Luka has the right attitude.
He’s smart, he’s quick.
I feel a little distracted by these ladies.
Me and my boyfriend have been together for four months.
He wants this open relationship that I’m so unsure about.
Unfortunately, I felt the love for him
before I knew that this is the style he wanted.
I’m deckhands on, like, ships and, like, tugs and stuff.
Oh, really?
So, like, yachting, like, I don’t even know.
So it’s us three going to leave the dock.
We are man down.
It’s only me and Luka that really knows
what a super yacht is like.
Sh--’s going to go down.
Your crew were absolutely incredible.
Thank you for stepping up in a chief stew role,
but then stepping back.
Sure.
If I’ve learned anything, coming in as a temp Chief Stew,
I just like to be in charge,
because I know how things should go.
Hi, officially Chief Stew.
And Kyle’s coming later.
Yes.
I met Kyle at the consulate when I was getting my visa.
Kyle obviously told me that he had his
ups and downs with Natalya.
-Nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you.
So what do you think of the boat?
The organization’s a sh---show.
-Excuse me? -I’m not talking about you.
I’m talking about the actual boat itself.
Been going pretty bloody well.
No, that’s done. That’s it.
Don’t do this with me.
The organization’s a sh---show.
-We can run here-- -No, you don’t get defensive.
All I’m saying is...
I’m not getting, I’m saying...
-Naturally. -I’ve got my opinion as well.
You’re getting offended. I’m not offending you.
From your part, organization’s impeccable
for what you’ve done in a day.
Before you got on this vessel,
the way that it’s set up is not necessarily
the way that I would want to walk onto a boat.
That’s all I’m saying.
I think, coming on here, I’m just telling you
it’s been great for running, obviously,
-being with this... -I can give my opinion.
I’m just...
Honestly, I’m just telling you it’s been great
to have one on each level.
That’s done. That’s it.
-Don’t do this with me. -That’s it.
Don’t put the hands up at me, please. Thank you.
Okay.
-Okay, show me the laundry. -I will show you the laundry.
Clearly, she did a great job on the charter,
and I would be excited to work with someone like that.
But also, how would she like it if someone
started going off the way that she did in the beginning?
I’m sure she wouldn’t like it at all.
My mum taught me to stand up for myself from a young age.
She doesn’t take sh-- at all.
When she cracks the whip?
Run.
So, uniforms. Yeah, that’s...
I’ve got more laundry baskets coming tomorrow,
but crew have been putting it in here in the morning.
When we got to, like, high school,
boys would play with our hair
or make comments about race and stuff.
I’d put them in their place, and they never tried me again.
So, be kind, but don’t let them walk all over you.
The iron’s not great, but it works.
What do you reckon?
There’s a blow-up pizza.
Okay.
There’s a bunch of sh-- down here.
Okay, well, that is the boat.
Would you like to know anything else about it?
No, I will ask if I need.
-Perfect. -All right, thank you.
Pleasure.
Achoo!
[laughing]
I think I just peed a little.
Want to take a chill?
Yeah, let’s go get a breather.
I mean, I already got into a little bit of a tiff.
-Really? -Yeah.
She was like, I’ve just got my opinion that she did this to me.
And I’ve said, don’t ----ing put your hand up on me.
I’ve said, don’t do this to me.
Uh-uh, and then she goes, Okay.
Oh, my God.
I love this kind of drama.
You love this kind of drama? I don’t.
-Hi. -Hi.
Maybe she’s just trying to...
-Maybe she’s just tired. -Adapt.
No. There’s no warmness there.
Jesus Christ, she needs to appreciate
the fact that I’ve set up the flow.
The boat’s in a good place, but there is a correct way
to step into this role and is to have a respectful hand over
and come in with good energy, like, be positive.
-Deep breaths. -Namaste.
I like to, like, whatever theme you’re doing,
you can just, like, let me know.
Yeah, I’m pretty good with menus.
Like, I’ll give you plenty of warning.
Amazing. Perfect.
Tumi, Jack, Luka,
meet me in the crew mess for our preference sheet meeting.
Copy that.
-Are you excited? -Yeah.
Right.
-Yeah. -Yeah.
Goodbye.
This is charter two, which I’m so happy about.
Looks good.
Mecca Moore-Henson is a New York-based founder
and publisher of a lifestyle magazine, Pink.
She and her guests have achieved success
and like to see their wealth
by traveling and enjoying luxurious vacations.
Ooh.
Mecca will be joined by her husband, Antoine,
Karen, Samantha, Bobbi, and Janelle,
Joy, and Adjua, who owns a wellness brand.
-Oh, plant-based. -Plant-based.
Oh, boy.
How are you with vegan?
-Pretty good. -Pretty good?
I tried veganism once.
I think it was a Tuesday.
And it lasted about two hours.
I just looked at the weather.
It’s going to be really bad.
Okay.
So we might have to stay on the dock.
-Just for that day? -Hopefully.
Yeah.
Mecca is used to cultivating high-end events.
The vibe must be immaculate.
How do you feel about that? You got this?
Yeah, I got it.
Dinner on night one is requested as
a Diamond’s Forever themed meal.
After dinner, guests we’ll change into pajamas
to enjoy a pajama party.
Late night snacks are a must.
I love a pajama party.
-Okay. -Perfect.
-All right, have a good night. -All right, thanks, guys.
Amazing. Thank you.
You’re the chief stew.
You’ve not addressed my colleague.
Guys, you’re adults.
Have it out between you both. I don’t need to.
Tash, you are the chief stew.
What do you want me to say?
Hey, babe. The new chick just arrived.
I’ve already had a brawl with her.
She’s a bit of a ----ing nightmare, but anyway.
This could go downhill in two days.
I already am in some weird stuff.
I’m ----ing dating you.
This open relationship is very new to me.
Like, we haven’t really discussed
rules or, like, guidelines.
I do find other people attractive,
and I don’t see myself sleeping with one person
for the rest of my life,
but it still doesn’t sit right with me,
my partner sleeping with someone else.
If you want this life,
then you also have to meet me halfway
with some of the stuff that I want.
I’ll talk to you tomorrow, get some sleep.
All right, love you, bye.
Ugh.
-All right, nice one, bro. -Good night.
There’s a storm right there.
It’s six miles big.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
-Morning. -Morning.
Do you want to have a morning meeting?
We’ll have a proper meeting with Kyle comes.
The only thing is, I think we should just finish
the cabins and toiletries.
Sweet, I’ll flip the laundry, get that rolling,
and then we’ll meet you in the cabin.
Thank you.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
-You ready? -Ready.
It’s going to be a buffet-style for lunch.
Poached lobster, avocado and smoked salmon salad,
acep sauce on wild mushrooms.
-A-C-E-P. -Yeah, some mushroom.
A mushroom sauce.
When it comes to chefs,
I’ve always been really lucky to have a great relationship
with them because I get them.
Crab arrabbiata.
How do you spell that, crab p?
Working with Aesha when it was her first time as a chief stew,
I learned not to let people walk all over me.
But how many yachts have you actually worked on?
I don’t know. How many vacuums have you pushed?
How many ----ing frying pans have you flipped?
You stick to vacuums, I’ll stick to cooking.
If there’s one thing I know about being a chief stew
or any stew is don’t piss off the chef.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
This doesn’t make any ----ing sense.
I obviously didn’t do that right, but it’s holding.
You know how the flag goes better than I do.
Lara.
[laughing]
Laura, Laura. It’s ----ing Lara.
As soon as your mouth... Laura.
It’s like Lara.
You’ve got to smile when you say it.
I’m not even going to answer when someone says Laura.
You know? Just stop.
No.
That sh-- is stupid.
Yeah.
I want to be in the laundry this whole trip.
After my little shenanigan, I just want to, like, stay away.
-So I need this folded. -Okay.
Don’t care how you do it,
whatever your heart desires, whatever makes you happy.
[grunts]
You thought you’re done with me?
[laughing]
I’m back.
Coming up...
-Great weather, huh? -Blade away, bitch.
She is not happy. Where’s the smiles?
[shrieking]
Oh, my God!
Girl, this thing is a cruise ship.
I’m not even joking.
I legitimately got lost.
-How are you? -Excited.
Oh!
Captain Sandy!
Kyle. Finally, you made it.
Captain Sandy wanting me back was such a great honor.
To be brought back on the boat by her,
you’ve got to be that special kind.
Obviously, there’s no rush,
but to let you know, we’re ready for service
-when you are. -Oh, great.
Thank you.
Just to start off class and then end up messy later.
Exactly.
Did you guys want something else to drink?
Oh, my God!
I was wishing to be chief stew this season.
I always want to reach the next level in any career.
But one day, right?
-Well, I’m going to get to it. -Okay.
And people will still see who’s the service queen.
-Welcome back. -Thank you so much. Woo-hoo!
-Jess. -Jess.
-Kyle. -Hi.
Hey, gorgeous.
Oh, good to meet you. What’s your name?
-Lara and... -Haleigh.
-And Luka.
Luka, okay.
You smell like a dream.
But I feel like broken memories.
Where is my Australian sister?
In the laundry.
Of course, you know where she is, hey?
-Yeah. -Yeah.
[screaming]
[laughing]
I’m genuinely so excited to see Natalya.
Kyle and I’s relationship, we’re like brother and sister.
Like, we got a bit rocky at the end of last season.
There’s no head of housekeeping. Do not try to blame me.
-No. -No one blamed you?
No, because you’ve just said the head of housekeeping
was not here, Kyle.
You didn’t hear the full story.
-Bullsh--. -Pipe down.
I’m literally the most calmest person.
I’m ----ing calm. ----ing sh--.
Kyle’s very good at lightening up a situation.
We have a lot of fun moments.
-Slow, Kyle. -Look how dirty you are.
It’s gross!
I mean, Natalya gets her panties in a twist.
I don’t wear any panties or any underwear, really.
Can’t handle the heat. then step out of the kitchen.
How’s things been going?
Did a walkthrough with her.
Not even a thanks for taking the first charter,
just say nothing.
[laughing]
Interior, interior, can we have a meeting
in the crew mess, please?
Copy.
Oh damn, it looks like dicks out here.
Doing sh-- that I’m not used to, it’s hard for me,
-so I’m trying to like... -Just take it in.
Yeah, like, I love line sh--.
It’s hard for me to just hang out
when I’m used to like, the adrenaline and like,
the exciting parts of boats.
Sitting on the dock,
I don’t really know what I should be doing.
If I was on the tugs, I can chip and paint something,
but the yacht, it’s a floating hotel.
And if it’s not moving, there’s nothing for me to do.
Besides hose the ----ing charter guests off.
So, I’m really excited.
-Hey, ho, so. -Let’s go.
Let’s go.
I think my management style is relatively relaxed.
Before yachting, I was in a management position
when I was in the restaurants,
but then I would manage the girls
because we also had a club.
Every weekend, I would have to find models so that men
could come into the club.
Constantly dealing with different personalities as well.
I know there’s gonna be a real learning curve for me,
but I feel very well prepared.
Okay, so I am super big on ranks.
I just believe in it.
So, Kyle...
Obviously.
Obviously, why is that so obvious Tumi? Why?
You’re gonna be my late stew.
And Natalya, I’m gonna make you third.
I’ve heard about how you’re so good at housekeeping,
and I feel like I don’t need to bloody stress about it.
Housekeeping laundry, I got ya.
Okay, cool.
And I would like you up for breakfast,
and then you can just like set the table
and then I’ll come do service with you.
And then Jess, I’m gonna make you fourth.
Copy.
This decision was based off their CVs.
Kyle is really good with people.
So that’s service.
So normally when someone’s really good at service,
they’re a second.
Natalya is really good with housekeeping and laundry.
So third would be perfect
because she can also manage Jessica.
I think like I’m happy to always do day heads and stuff,
like, but you know, if someone sees something,
please just take initiative and do it.
Yeah, of course.
It’s kind of a relief to go to the bottom of the food chain
because less stress down there.
There’s drama at the top, and I don’t like it.
It makes me uncomfortable.
-Okay, let’s just go. -Okay.
What’s happening, guys?
We’re just gonna put one more line out.
More laundry.
I tried to organize this cupboard to my best ability.
Oh, thanks, baby.
Babe, do you want a sous chef?
I don’t want to be in the interior.
No, no, no, trust me.
I’m not vibing.
I don’t want to go into any dramas
-or that sh--. -Yeah.
Hello.
Oh, that’s him?
I don’t know, maybe.
Hola, people.
-Hey. How’s it going? -I’m Max. Good.
Sorry.
I have a meeting with the captain.
Yeah, you can come on and go see her.
-She’ll be up on the bridge. -Yeah?
Yeah.
Push.
-Nice to meet you. -Luka.
-Max. -Nice to meet you.
Hola, madame. What’s your name?
-Lara. -Lara.
-And? -Haleigh.
Haleigh, nice to meet you. My name is Max.
I’m French, I speak good English.
I have been fired from all the jobs since I’m 18.
I am the misunderstood, but because I’m a ---ing animal,
like a French bulldog, you know? Rar, you know?
-Hello, Captain. -Welcome aboard.
Thank you so much.
-Great weather, huh? -Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, I’m so happy to have you here.
Thank you so much. I appreciate it.
I want to connect you to Luka.
Just have him sit your cabin.
What is your position?
-Bosun. -Bosun?
Where about did you come from?
Oh, sweet.
So what? I change and I, you know?
Yeah, chuck some uniform on.
We’re picking up this afternoon.
-Are we? -Yeah.
But we’re not leaving the dock.
-We’re going to stay here. -Okay.
Vegan. Hate this sh--.
All crew, all crew, provision guys here.
Okay, good.
Tomorrow, I’m thinking bright, sunny skies.
Staying positive.
Got so much to do.
I’m not normally this lazy, but I don’t want to be wet now.
Only tonight.
[laughing]
Big, juicy melons.
Because it’s teamwork that...
-Makes the dream work! -Makes the dream work!
Oh, I just took out my hoo-ha on the corner.
Good job, guys. That was smooth.
-But you are alone. Huh? -You are alone.
-What? -You are alone.
-No one is sous chef. -No, no.
-You are by yourself. -Yeah.
All crew, all crew.
In your whites now, let’s meet on the dock.
So it’s been...
I’m trying to hold back things.
Interesting.
And it’s only going to get more interesting.
This is how we’re starting?
The drama, girl.
This is going to be good for absolutely no one.
And now I’m in the middle.
And I prefer the front or the back.
And everybody knows that
that knows me will tell you the same thing.
First night, she messaged me about you.
What did she say?
Yeah, good. Go ahead, hon. Go ahead.
I’m off to Mykonos. I don’t really give a sh--.
You’re not leaving.
[laughing]
Hi!
I’m going to need a masseuse at 3 p.m. today.
Uh, I don’t have socks, my friends.
-You don’t have any socks? -No.
You can use some of mine.
-You didn’t bring any socks? -No.
Blade away, bitch.
All crew, all crew, guest arrival.
Let’s meet on the dock.
Booyah!
Yay!
My New York friend.
I cannot believe this is the weather right now.
She is not happy.
-Cold-ass rain. -Yeah, that’s some bullsh--.
All right, please go meet them at the gate.
You’re stressing us out over this sh--.
Where’s the smiles?
First charter as chief stew.
And this is it? Bad weather.
We’re stuck at the dock. Issues with Natalya.
Guests that look really pissed off.
[bleep]. This is not ideal.
-Mm-mm. -----ed up.
Coming up...
Tumi, how much longer for lunch?
I’m going to check with the chef.
What, are they getting restless?
We’re looking forward to the food.
Would I be able to get one of the girls
-in here as well, please? -That’s why I’m here.
You must be enjoying the [bleep] out of this.
Yep.
This is going to suck.
Yeah.
Hello. Welcome on board.
-Hi. -Hi.
-How are you? -Hello.
Hi.
We were hoping you would bring the sunshine.
-All right. -Look, you brought it.
I think you brought it. I’m Mecca.
-Welcome. -Ooh, a Black girl.
[overlapping dialogue]
-Champagne, maybe? -Champagne.
So, unfortunately, we have to stay on the dock today.
-Yep. -Mm-hmm.
-It’s so rough off shore. -But tomorrow?
Let’s see.
You’re going to make magic happen.
See?
Well, our chief stew, Tumi, is going to show you around.
Cheers, everyone.
So, I’m going to give you a tour of the boat.
So, we’re going to go up.
So, because it’s raining, the cushion’s aren’t out.
That’s your jacuzzi, where all the action happens.
I will be living right here. Fabulous.
Oh, yeah, that’s perfect, right?
Yeah.
I’ve even called you a masseuse.
-We go down this side. -Down the stairs.
So, this is your bridge deck aft.
-Nice. -This is Mecca-approved.
This arrangement. It’s pretty.
-You guys got to bring it. -My favorite thing.
-Oh, I know that’s right. -Woo!
He’s the best bosun I’ve ever had.
How do you feel about stepping back?
She texted Kyle saying, Natalya better watch it.
I’ve no problem firing her.
Do you think Kyle said something about you
and it made her think something?
I don’t really give a sh--.
Okay, let’s go down to your rooms.
Oh, I’m getting lost and dizzy.
There’s no elevator?
This is the master cabin for our queen.
Oh, my God.
-It’s pretty. -Yeah.
Do you know what time we’re starting lunch?
Hopefully, later.
I’m going to get the bags and for you.
-Okay. -Yeah.
We can do it.
Boss sh--.
-I’ll let the chef know. -Yeah.
I didn’t have breakfast.
Chef, how soon can we do lunch?
They’re real hungry.
Can we offer them this cheese and cookies?
I tried to offer. They’re not keen.
Okay, well, I’m gonna need 30 minutes down to go together.
-30 minutes for lunch. -Yeah.
Chef can get lunch ready in 30 minutes.
Oh, yeah, by the time they get upstairs, that’s fine.
We’re going to get into our reds.
All right, you guys go grab some food,
and then could you give Cheffy a hand with dishes?
The charcuterie board?
Yeah, I know.
-But, Babe... -Okay.
Okay, so I’ll put everything we’re doing
-outside the dining table. -Perfect.
You put it here? You put it here?
-Inside. -Oh, inside?
-Okay. -Yeah.
Obviously.
I’m trying to figure out your accent.
Oh, yeah?
No, I don’t know what the [bleep] he’s saying.
No, no, it’s going to be good.
-You do plates... -Gotcha.
-And knives and forks. -Gotcha.
And glasses.
Babe, I’m not not up there.
I don’t like being rushed,
because I want everything to look amazing.
I’m going to throw it on a ----ing plate,
like a caveman.
Why can’t we just slow it down a bit,
and, like, it’s going to be 10 more minutes,
but it’s going to look better.
If I feel rushed, that’s when I’m going to start
getting pissed off.
Tumi, how much longer for lunch?
I’m going to check with the chef.
Thank you.
-Cheffy.. -What are they getting restless?
Let’s eat, let’s eat.
It’ll be ready in about 15 minutes.
What’s going on with the cheese?
The cheese? They don’t want it.
No, because you went to take the wrapper off,
but then you walked away.
They don’t want it.
It looks like the rain stopped a bit,
so we’ll have some food and maybe dry.
The chef should be about 10 minutes.
10 minutes. Okay.
This is going to sound crazy,
but my ideal charter guest is a chaotic charter guest.
Tumi, so we go outside?
We can get seated now.
Ooh!
Growing up with six siblings, like, it’s just natural.
This is why I don’t work on private boats,
because I get bored.
I am here to bust my ass.
That’s where I thrive.
-[glass clinks] -Ooh! Cheers.
Natalya, do you mind running up to the bridge deck bar?
Copy.
That guy is so...
Don’t like being rushed.
Are you going to try some bread?
-It’s fresh. -Fresh bread?
Yeah. He makes it.
You’ll see.
Still or sparkling?
-Still is fine. -Okay.
I wonder what we’re going to eat.
What do you need?
I just need to fill up with some Pellegrino , yeah?
That’s okay, baby.
I did leave things pretty open.
I made its clear we’re all very well-traveled,
so we want to try some stuff.
We’re looking forward to the food.
You must be enjoying the [bleep] out of this, be honest.
I’m down in laundry to save my ----ing life.
The chef is the best thing about this ----ing boat.
How are we going?
We can start slowly.
I don’t know, it never works.
I just can’t bite my tongue,
because I just think if you’re being unfair,
then you need to be told that you’re being unfair.
At school, against my science teacher,
my house had just been in a fire and she was always rude to me.
She was like, oh, Natalya,
it was the only thing you were able to save
was your sports uniform?
And I just remember kicking the Bunsen burner
that was on the desk towards the teacher.
Would I be able to get one of the girls
to help me with the platters?
That’s why I’m here.
She’s come in here with a bone to pick,
but guess what? She’s picked the wrong bone.
At this point, let’s just sack her
and then I’ll just step up again.
I’m not assisting if I’ve been told
I’m getting fired easy, so...
-Did she say actual food? -We’re starving.
So, this is the lobster salad, ready?
-Copy. -That’s the tomato and onion.
Copy, thank you.
Do you have a black tray by you somewhere?
Yeah. Do you want to use that one?
I’m going to make some lime juice.
I love that.
My responsibilities may have decreased a bit.
One. Two.
But, like, just keep the conflict away from me
at all costs.
Cheffy, let me if I can do anything right at this moment.
Yeah, I need platters up, please.
In school, bickers and arguments about things
gave me such bad anxiety.
I went into cheerleading in ninth grade.
It was so much pressure.
Your team is getting upset.
If you mess up, I just, like, lost confidence in myself,
like, nah, [bleep] this. I quit.
There we go.
It’s almost two. We still haven’t eaten yet.
We’re happy with our position?
I was thinking we pull up on the ground lines a bit more.
I agree.
Right, we got steak and mushroom sauce.
Deck crew, could you meet me up on the bow?
Ooh, yes.
We’re going to try and come off the dock like a meter.
If you guys pull up on these,
I’m going to go to the back and keep an eye on it.
And we’ve got a vegan alternative
-coming for you now, okay? -Okay.
What’s in this?
That smells good.
Back to cabins, I go.
We’ll inch it up more.
Yeah.
Okay, would you like some tomatoes ?
Yes, please.
Everything looks so good.
I hope it tastes as good as it looks.
We’re looking good, nice and tight.
Haleigh, Haleigh, Luka, do you want to go on a two-hour break?
Yes.
Can’t have you burning out, girl.
It’s just a little avocado pumpkin seed salad.
-Do they seem happy? -They’re fine.
Do you want to start drying up on the sundeck?
-Sundeck and come down. -Yeah.
-This is good. It’s good. -Delicious.
This is for our lovely vegan.
It’s just like an avo salad.
Yeah, let’s go dry everything, huh?
Yeah, do you want to go up to the sundeck and help Lara?
Yeah, sure.
Is it to your liking?
Well, it’s just asparagus.
-Why? -To help you.
My Lord, how’s it going?
Good.
You’re ----ing living the dream down here, right?
This is like the quiet zone.
Like, what the [bleep] is this?
When does he wear that?
His junk’s not that big.
If I was in a monoga... monogamous.
If I was in a "monoganmonus..."
If I was in a monog-- [bleep].
If I was in a monogamous relationship,
I wouldn’t be flirting, but I’m not.
So, hello, Luka.
I would love to have a cuddle with him,
and I think I’m allowed to, but I’m still...
It’s a question mark.
My whole relationship right now is a question mark,
and I am just confused.
Do you want to put it on?
I’m not putting those on.
Now how are we rating this vegan meal you’re having?
I would give it a six.
Well, goddamn.
Tumi, pasta is kind of easy.
You got to be more creative,
and you got to dig in your bag a little bit.
Don’t tell Chef, but tell him.
-I’ll let him know. -It was good.
-We just want more. -Okay.
I have high expectations just letting y’all know.
We expect something very grand.
Oh, sh--.
I hate that I’m like that.
No, you’re Pisces. Can’t help it.
-We can do tam-tam? -What is tam-tam?
Yeah, you can tam-tam.
You do tam-tam?
Can we tam-tam, what the [bleep]?
Before I forget, the vegan gave it a six,
and she wants a ten.
To be honest, I wasn’t happy with that vegan itself.
A bit rushed, you know what I mean?
No, this was...
This was rushed, even for me.
She’s going to be a thorn in my ass all this trip.
I can feel it.
-Careful, there’s bee. -There’s a bee?
Yeah.
I’m scared of insects.
Are you from South Africa?
Yeah, but I don’t like spiders or insects.
You have monkey in the streets.
Yes, we have monkeys in the houses.
Okay, so I just wanted to discuss dinner with you.
I think we’ll sit maybe like 8:30.
8:30. Okay, copy.
Is the masseuse on the way?
-Yes. -Yes!
That’s who we all waiting for!
Kyle, I appreciate you.
What’s going on?
I just appreciate you.
I know you’re talking sh--. What’s up?
[laughing] I’m kidding.
-How does it feel? -Feels so good.
-Hi! -Hi.
-How are you? -Fine, thanks, and you?
I’m good. My name’s Tumi.
God, this guy’s beautiful.
We’re stuck at the dock,
but at the same time, these are the type of things
that distract guests and make them happy.
So you let me know if you need anything.
Okay.
How was it on sundeck with him?
-All good? -He’s a funny guy. I like him.
Okay, good.
Okay, for starter, homemade wild boar raviolo.
Yes, I’m the first.
The main course, pan-fried yellowtail.
Cool, thank you.
Beautiful. Thank you.
Okay, I’m just going to print this menu quickly.
Yeah, they are difficult, but I’ve had worse.
That’s what I keep trying to tell myself.
Trust me. You’ve had way worse.
Tumi is very approachable.
There’s an energy about her
that’s an expectation of perfection,
which I really like.
She really knows what she wants.
Just make sure you get some rest.
I will. Thank you.
-Hello. -What’s this?
Is this for later?
Let me check in with my husband and Adjua
because she’s our vegan.
I can come up with you if you want.
That’d be awesome.
How’s it going?
Good, just got all the steaming finished.
Amazing.
What’s going on up there?
After you’ve done this, you can go on a break.
Happy days.
Thank you so much.
No worries.
No.
We can change it to lobster.
I would like penne pasta with that same sauce
so you don’t have to switch it up too much.
So we keep what we’re planning here.
Change the pasta.
Add the lobster to my pasta with that sauce.
I’m going to go change quick.
Yeah.
You’ll just help Kyle.
The boar.
We’re going to change out for lobster.
Lobster raviolo?
We’re going to change the raviolo
to another type of pasta.
I could do a lobster linguine.
A lobster bisque sauce.
-That’ll be nice. -Yeah.
Good morning.
You were knocked out for like 15 minutes.
He’s been done for a while.
Look, if you can, just refuel that tender.
You haven’t seen my boyfriend yet, have you?
-What is he? -Italian.
He is, but he’s...
American Italian.
I like that.
After leaving Motoryacht Home,
I had a one-way ticket to New York City to meet Frank.
Frank was a charter guest on Motoryacht Home.
And I realized there was no connection.
So after that, I went on a dating app
and I saw this profile pop up.
Dr. Zachary Keith Riley.
We’ve been dating ever since.
I’m super, super in love,
and we’re going to go to South Africa
because I’d like to get engaged there with my family.
I’m really, really excited.
I would let that man do dirty things to me.
It’s good to work with girls.
Why, because we’re hilarious and really hard workers?
Yeah.
We’re changing the wild boar ravioli
to lobster spice linguine.
Okay.
That’s the only change to the menu.
How are you? I miss you.
I’m telling you, everything had a flow.
Now that Tumi’s in charge it’s [bleep] me.
And then, apparently, she’s already said something
about you to Kyle.
The chef is the best thing about this ----ing boat.
-Really? -Yeah.
This is bullsh--.
Don’t start being all friendly and nice and fake,
but making my life ----ing hard.
Pisses me off.
She messaged Kyle last night saying
she has no problem firing me.
-Said that to Kyle? -Good luck.
Cheffy, I can help you with anything as well that you need.
Yeah.
All right, give me that funnel, please.
Bump that sh-- back.
Yeah, you should be a good at that.
I’m coming. He’s coming.
It’s coming.
Like fans and stuff tied to the roof?
It’s easy. Leave that with me.
Okay, you want to go the big way.
-The big daddy way. -Just dump it.
You accept me how I am.
Welcome in my La La Land.
How are you, anyway?
-I’m good. -Yeah?
Yeah.
It’s lovely to see a Black woman in yachting.
I’m not lying to you.
Sometimes I’m just like, I’m bloody done.
Like, what do I have to prove?
It’s like I’m not here changing the world.
You’re changing my world.
Oh, I love that.
You change...
Every single person who comes on here
is seeing a fellow Black woman do this.
-This is a big deal, right? -Yeah.
There is a massive lack of diversity in yachting,
and the reason why it doesn’t get spoken about
is because they keep defending it.
And it’s like, yeah, but I worked with a Black deckhand.
Okay, but have you worked with a Black first officer?
Okay, have you worked with a Black captain?
Yes, there are people of color in the industry,
but they’ve put in certain positions
where they’re not seen.
I know a lot of people that don’t want to come
into the industry because they feel like
they would never be given the opportunities.
So here I am like... Bitch.
If you fight hard, you can do it.
-Sister! -Hey!
Do you want to put your blacks on?
Sure.
-It’s 7:30. Let’s go. -Time to get dressed.
Oh, [bleep].
That’s it.
-It smells so good. -Are you ready?
Yeah, I think I’m ready.
Where’s everyone?
-The decor. -It’s beautiful.
So pretty.
Oh, this is beautiful.
Tell the chef to radio me when he’s ready.
Sure.
The pajama party.
I hate all this gold, so I’m going to make it
all white and fluffy.
Starter is lobster linguini.
Delicious.
Do you want to stick these together?
Have a seat. Relax.
I really hope we leave the dock tomorrow.
Well, like, you can stay with me,
because I’ve always got a job for you.
I know.
Meow.
I recently got out of a long relationship,
but I’m just keen to have some fun.
But I’ve been given this amazing position
as the head of department.
I know I can’t get too distracted by these girls.
So, have you got a girlfriend? What’s the girl?
I’m too young for that.
-How old are you? -25.
Once I was dating someone and I broke up with them
and was seeing another person on the boat,
we were in the crew mess one time
and they were throwing food at each other.
Captain gets a little bit of cream cheese stuck on his face
and I’m like, sorry, dude.
So, yeah, that kind of affected the work environment.
What are your thoughts?
I already know my thoughts on a lot of things,
but I don’t need to repeat that, do I?
[laughing]
It’s so good.
So, for starters, we’ve got
the homemade lobster spice linguine.
This is good.
Sorry, honey. Pardon my reach.
That’s okay.
-I’ll move that, absolutely. -Thank you.
Thank you.
-You got to smell it. -Oh, it’s so good.
You two just want to knock off?
Yeah, knock off, huh?
What number are we giving?
-Is that a... -A 10.
A 10? Wow. Okay.
All right, we are done.
I’m kind of ready for the next course now, though.
Yeah.
They love the seafood, don’t they?
Seafood is the key.
This fish is yellowtail.
Nice.
Kyle, Kyle. Kyle, let’s get plates.
I’m on my way down.
-How are you going, my love? -Hey, baby.
Natalya, Natalya. Good night. Thank you.
And go bugger yourself.
I’m just so glad that I’m not up there in service.
Ooh, what we got here Tumi?
So, we have yellowtail steamed mussels with citrus mid-sauce.
-Oh, this is our main. -This is not my main.
Well, what did you got, honey?
-She wanted lobster. -Yeah, remember?
-You ordered lobster? -Oh, is this...
No, this is lobster.
No, you got lobster... The pasta.
She wanted lobster for her main.
Gotcha.
I wanted the lobster pieces with the...
-The lobster. -It’s okay. It’s okay.
I can wait. I’m not like starving.
It’s okay.
So, I’m confused.
She wants the spaghetti lobster thing.
What do you mean?
That’s what she said she wants for her main.
She didn’t say it to me but I’ll make one now.
Wait one minute. The spaghetti will be ready.
No worries. No worries.
-Hello. -You finished?
The easiest tip money of my life.
I don’t understand what’s happening.
What’s happening?
Like, what did she order? What didn’t she order?
So, we keep what we’re planning here.
-Mm-hmm. -Change the pasta.
Add the lobster to my pasta with that sauce.
Yes.
So, we got a side order of roasted carrots.
If anyone likes this.
-Yeah. -Roasted carrots.
Can I just go around?
Bobbi is like, where’s my lobster?
Look at your face. Your face.
She enjoys the yellowtail, but she would like lobster.
So, do you want the lobster that you have
for the first, the pasta that she just had?
I need it for my meal. I don’t want this.
Oh, so they gave it to you as a first course.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
So, this is a sh---show.
They’re drunk. One.
Two, when she heard the menu.
Who said it to her?
Right. Well, we need to be on top of this
because I could have thrown sh-- at them.
You need to be on top of what they want.
I am on top. What the hell are you talking about?
-I’m not on top. -No, you’re obviously not.
Let’s get this over, we’ll talk at the end.
Don’t do that. When you get stressed out,
-I’m here to help you. -I’m not stressed.
Believe me, I’m not stressed.
You’ll know when I’m stressed.
If anything goes wrong with the boat,
it’s on Captain Sandy.
If anything goes wrong with the food, it’s on me.
----ing hell.
----ing hell to you, too.
[bleep]
Here we go.
Oh, thank you.
I thought you were going to bed.
Who goes to bed this early?
So, I just want to show you. This is what they wrote.
When they changed, lobster spice linguine.
So, she assumed that this was going to be her main dish.
So, when she got the starter,
she knew that this was the starter.
So, when she got the starter,
she supposed she was getting it again?
That doesn’t sound right, though.
This is where it comes from.
I’m not making up stuff.
Yeah, I get that, but it still doesn’t make sense.
Drama.
He’s not happy.
That’s ----ing... Hey.
She didn’t realize it was the starter.
Right. She got confused. It’s not our problem.
She’s the one that got confused.
Understand?
Hmm. Yeah.
You know what’s pissing me off more than anything?
The fact that it’s always the guest’s fault.
----ing have some accountability.
Blaming the guest?
Talk sh-- about me behind my back?
I’ll tell you what.
First impression of Tumi is really ----ing bad.
Hi, my love. Do you need anything?
Yes, therapy.
-That makes three of us. -A shrink.
I heard you, like, getting angry,
so I wanted to come save you.
He doesn’t respect me. That’s the problem.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, my God, these stairs are dangerous.
If I put down chicken and they change their mind to...
what must I do?
What ----ing yacht have you worked on?
-Literally. -A big one, clearly,
because people change their mind.
Coming up...
I am fine with it, end of the story.
Stop doing this with your hands.
Stop talking back to me.
Honey, you stepped on board with this attitude.
There was no appreciation.
Bye, Natalya.
See, come handle it. Don’t go talk to Kyle about it.
Okay, I’m gonna go speak to him.
Just, uh, radio me if you need backup.
Think that there would be.
I’ll keep talking.
Quick chat. I want you to win.
I never, ever want you to fail.
You’re phenomenal.
And I will always be super honest.
Nowhere do I want to see you fail.
We’re good. We’re good. Don’t worry. We’re good.
But I know you have someone in your ear.
I would like at least a fair chance.
-Please listen to me. -I’m proving myself.
Please listen to me. I make my own mind up anyway.
-Don’t worry about that. -Just making sure.
You guys, I’m gonna put on my PJs.
-Yeah, me too. -Five minutes.
-We’ll meet back? -You gotta go change.
You need to go now. Because I need to take a dump.
[laughing]
-Girl, go to bed. -Okay.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.
Of course.
You excited to party with a guest?
That’s the last thing I want right now.
Look at this.
Ooh.
Look at this, how cute!
They did a great job.
-What did they ask for? -Vegan flatbread pizzas.
These little things.
Yeah.
You got it.
Good night, babes.
I’ll text you what time I’m done.
I just want to knock off.
I don’t think they’re gonna be up that late.
Thank you.
-What’s happening tonight? -We’re gonna have some fun.
-Hi, Kyle. -Kyle.
Can I have a double Tito’s soda light ice and a cup of limes.
-Same. -Same.
Here we are, sir.
We’ll do snacks by the hot tub.
Yeah, make yourself comfortable. I’ll fill you up.
Oh, my gosh, Kyle. What would we do without Kyle?
You’re welcome.
You guys, there’s snacks for us.
-So let’s enjoy. -We serve.
Give Kyle a hat and a chain.
You know what? I’ve actually never worn one of these.
Oh, that’s real gold, honey.
You feel how heavy it is?
He’s like, me and my Black friends.
It’s last call for alcohol.
Anybody want anything?
Cheers, guys. Love you guys.
-No more wine for tonight. -Goodnight!
We’re going to sleep. That’s it.
Oh, these orange juice. I love orange juice.
Night, Bobbi-tine.
Night, Mecca-tine.
[phone vibrates]
Babe, I just like... I just can’t deal.
Haleigh, can you help clean up the main salon?
The morning person should wake up to a packed-away boat
where she should just give it a quick wipe down
and just start for breakfast.
Not ----ing cleaning up decorations
from the night before.
Not professional.
[growls]
They need main knives. They need main forks.
Good morning.
-Hey. -How’s it going?
Good.
How are we looking?
-We can leave the dock. -Perfect.
Good morning.
What’s our breakfast special?
Smoked haddock, spinach.
Poached egg, torched hollandaise sauce.
-Tumi. -Hi.
In the salon now, there’s like heaps
full of dishes this morning.
I understand, but sometimes, if it’s like
he’s going to bed at three,
I would rather him go to bed as soon as possible
than him being up later.
Like, it’s just like things like this,
he’s like all left out
and just becomes a bit of a cluster.
I think we’re pretty comfortable for Kyle to be able to...
We’re ahead, I feel, like if Kyle
has all the dishwashers empty.
No, I need Kyle to be bed into bed by three.
Why?
Natalya, I’m telling you that I am okay with it.
If it means that someone’s going to bed at three...
-Oh, my God. -I’m telling you I’m fine.
I’m fine. I’m not... Why are you...
I am telling you I am fine with it.
End of the story.
Stop doing things with your hands.
Stop talking back to me.
Look, I’m a first-time chief stew,
but I know what I’m doing.
She has no respect.
She reminds me of a Chihuahua.
Territorial, combative, speaks all the time.
And I’ve just had it. We’re done.
You have been attacking me since day one.
Um, excuse me?
You have a problem with the fact--
You stepped on board with the worst attitude...
We will speak...
You stepped on board with the worst attitude.
There was no appreciation.
-Bye, Natalya. -See, come handle it.
Don’t go talk to Kyle about it.
Talk to me about it if you’re confrontational.
Christ.
Next time on "Below Deck Mediterranean"...
-Is it up here? -Oh, hell no.
What the...
We don’t have time to ----ing sit around and wank.
Come across a lot of lazy people in yachting.
Come, we’re not lazy on this boat.
No, we’re not lazy.
It’s ----ing work.
The way how she’s gone about everything
is just ----ing stupid.
She is.
Okay, we’re all good and nicely secure on the stern.
How you doing up forward, Haleigh?
One way house, because--
Can you shut up a little bit?
What’s the issue this time?
You said I’ve done the cabins. When you say that--
They’re freshened up for the middle of the day, huns.
Let me finish.
Stop putting your hand in my face.
You’re going to do this, then I’m going to do this to you.
Tumi, Natalya, to the bridge now.
To the bridge.
You haven’t given her a fair chance.
I can’t tolerate this.
-You’re in a leadership role. -I agree, Sandy.
You need to rise above because right now
I’m ready to put you both off the boat.
