This season, from a captain’s point of view,
I have to look after my standards.
It’s five-star silver service.
As a team, we’re not going to settle
for any less than perfection.
Come on, come on!
Oh!
[glass shatters]
All right, let’s get this out of the way.
We’re doing one for the team.
Is that a banana in your pants or are you happy to see me?
Yes, captain, yeah!
Welcome to Australia, ladies and gentlemen.
This season, I’m not going to take any sh-- from people.
I’m a tough bitch now.
And that’s how you have a boyfriend and I don’t.
The first thing I thought about
when I got out of bed was money and alcohol.
This is so good.
It’s like an orgasm in my mouth.
I beat myself up.
[groans]
I bet someone else could do this better than me.
This is us together trying to get to the end game, okay?
I have three therapists that are not really working.
We have all these cool, beautiful, good-looking people.
We all have sexual chemistry.
So Harry likes Margot, who likes Luke.
And Laura likes Adam, but also wants Luke.
It’s a love pentagon.
Take your foot off the pedal right now.
We’re a team, this is our home.
We’re not dragging any anchors around.
-Get that fender over. -Stand by, stand by.
Don’t let that hit.
I’ve got no control over the bow.
-Oh no, oh no, oh no! -Get a line on.
I’m afraid it’s going to explode.
Why do you guys not understand that I’m lactose intolerant?
Oh ----ing sh--.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
There needs to be some sort of chat with the crew.
That’s enough.
I’m going to terminate your employment.
What the [bleep]?
You need to get off the boat tonight.
Wow, this is going to be interesting.
Only one prop, eh?
Very nostalgic.
Hi!
Oh, I’m so excited to see you.
Hello.
This is amazing.
Should we go up to the bridge?
Yep.
Oh, look at this.
It’s like an old expedition boat, eh?
1977 converted fishing troller.
-Good greeting room. -Love all these ships.
It’s so interesting.
If we ever sink, we can probably jump on that.
Yeah, yeah.
This is pretty impressive.
Oh, here’s the master.
This is very grand.
It’s like an old explorer’s room.
Good spa, good bath.
Northern Sun is a 1977 Japanese fishing vessel
that’s been converted to a luxury super yacht.
It’s got massive dive locker,
huge forward toy storage,
two big tenders, fully set up.
It’s the perfect vessel because this season we’re in Cairns.
Right at the foothills of the most spectacular
underwater scenery you’ll ever see.
It’s adventure yachting.
It’s perfect for exploration.
I think it’s beautiful.
Fantastic.
So your stewardess’s look good.
Laura, the second, she’s had some good experience.
-Oh, Chief stew. -Yep.
-Okay. -Margot, your third stewardess.
She’s still on charter on another boat.
She’s not going to be here for a couple of days.
-So... -Oh, no.
You’re going to have to start this first charter on day one.
With just two of us.
And then she’s flying in straight from a charter.
Can we get the boat ready without her?
-Yeah. -Okay.
I feel so excited.
I just want to smash the first charter.
-Big day. -Bloody big day.
All righty.
This season, as a Chief stew,
no one’s going to walk all over me.
Hasn’t been done...
I’m so very sick today.
Were you on the phone to your boyfriend?
Is that why you’re working so slow?
I never work slow.
I think we find an experienced replacement.
I’m going to be a tough bitch.
Well, a tougher bitch.
I’m going to be direct because I don’t know
if it’s quite in me to be a bitch.
Last year you stepped up big time.
-Yeah, thank you. -Do it again.
-Yep. -Right-o.
Looks like we’re going on an expedition.
Just don’t know about that wind and weather.
Oh, Jesus. These are huge.
-Luke. -Captain.
-Yeah, how are you buddy? -Very good.
-Cool. -That’s a strong handshake.
I like it.
Welcome, mate. You’ve been to Cairns before?
I have.
I had six months up here on a boat, which is nice.
Well, this is an old converted 1977 vessel.
She’s got five meters draft.
So given the boat, the age and single screw,
it’s actually quite difficult to drive.
Is this something new for you?
Well, a single screw variable pitch 1977.
You don’t get many of them.
-We got this. -We have.
Lucky I like a challenge because I’ve got one.
It’s a converted fishing vessel.
They modernized the interior for the guest, but not for me.
It’s not a push button electronic boat.
It’s the way things used to be.
It’s like a vintage car.
And it’s going to take everything I’ve learned
in 25 years to drive this.
I’m at Cairns where I like crashing boats.
Dinner rush was interrupted by an unexpected guest.
We shut down all engines,
dropped an anchor and selected a spot
where there was no personnel.
A bit of navigating around the reefs.
I’m looking at that anchor island being like,
that’s commercial.
-A bit of work, isn’t it? -Yeah.
I love the nostalgia of it all. It’s going to be fun.
All right. I’ll head down.
Thanks so much. Nice to meet you.
All right.
-How are you? -Hello.
Hi, I’m Luke. Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you. Aesha. -Aesha. Pleasure.
-Hello. -Chef.
Tzarina.
-Hi, Captain, How are you? -Pleased to meet you.
-Welcome aboard.
Just look at how big this is.
Whoa. Look at this place!
You’ve got yourself a nice little CV.
-Do you think? -Yeah.
You’ve done some stuff here.
You’re pretty diverse.
Oh, let’s see.
People describe me as weird.
It was difficult growing up.
I went to a private Christian German school
as a bisexual Jewish woman.
I was a little sh-- at school.
I just used to set fire to everything.
I was fascinated with it.
So I went a little bit off the rails.
After school, my mother was like,
you’ve got to do something.
So I did cooking school.
It was the only thing I was good at.
And I was like, oh my God. I’m a chef. This is it.
And now I’m 30 and I’m still doing it.
I’ll let you find your way.
Thank you so much.
30. Flirty. Thriving.
Ohh...
I’m sweating me tits off.
Who’s that?
-Cheffy! -Cheffy!
-I’m Tzarina, by the way. -Tzarina?
How are you feeling?
I mean, I’m okay, but they’ve lost my suitcase.
Oh, no.
And just, yeah.
Well, if you need to borrow anything of mine until...
That’s so annoying.
And they’re real expensive, too, eh?
Yeah.
I have no makeup. I have nothing.
Well, I was thinking, me and you should share.
Jesus, the rooms are huge.
Here we go.
-You meet Captain, right? -Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Jesus, I would climb that like a tree. Oomph.
-Hi! -I’m Laura.
Aesha!
You are going to be... You’re my second hand, you.
Cheffo. Where you from?
-From Bristol. -Bristol.
-How are you? -Laura.
Shaking hands. Laura, I like it.
-Where you from? -I’m from Latvia.
Latvia? Nice.
I don’t expect you to know where that is, but...
Because you’re stupid, apparently.
I’m a commoner.
I’m a massive flirt. Like, too much.
You know what I’m not trying to flirt?
I do it.
Okay.
It just creates crew morale.
This is the orgy shower.
The orgy shower, Jesus!
I’m calling it right now.
I’m going to check out my galley.
-Where am I? -Either that one or that one.
-They are really big. -Oh, my God!
I’ll let you get changed.
Okay.
Oh!
This ----ing monstrosity.
-Hi! -Hey, I’m Adam.
-Nice to meet you. -Adam, you’ll be down here.
Thank you.
She’s a big boat.
-How you doing, Adam? -Good.
-Nice to meet you. -Adam, where you from?
-Brooklyn, New York. -Brooklyn.
What’s your position?
I’m usually a third mate.
Like, cargo ships and stuff.
Oh, you got, like, a commercial background.
Commercial, yeah, yeah.
You’re going to teach me how to run this ship.
I got you, brother.
In high school, I had really bad grades.
I didn’t take school too serious.
One day, my guidance counselor pulled me into his office.
And he was like, what are your plans after high school?
And I was like, I don’t know. You know?
So he helped me get into this four-year maritime school.
Somehow I passed.
God, man. Like, I was so proud.
Now I have this Third Mate, unlimited License,
which allows me to work on any ship in the world.
Pleasure, I’ll let you get into your gear, okay?
My first job was on commercial boats.
Just getting the cargo from point A to point B.
So I’m pretty new to yachting.
I’m grateful to be here, honestly,
just because everyone’s my age
and kind of have a little more fun at work.
I’m excited for it.
Need to get some provisions on board, hey?
-Hey, Harry. -Nice to meet you, Luke.
Luke?
It’s like Antique’s Roadshow on water.
Yeah, bro.
Jump in. Jump in.
-Harry. -Adam.
-Do you prefer top or bottom?
Whatever you prefer. You’re the bigger guy.
-I usually go bottom. -I’ll take top.
What do you think?
Well, it’s, um...
Not a lot of prep area. or space.
There’s not much room to plate and stuff.
Much space to do, yeah.
It’s going to be a thing.
You’ve been yachting for a while now?
Full time, probably about a year.
Oh, okay.
My brother owns a syndicate yacht company.
That’s who I work for in Sydney.
Nice.
We get to see these amazing places and "party"
while working at the same time.
-What is that? -It’s the scuba diving.
You brought that with you?
-I dive every week. -Damn, brother.
It’s good to talk about how I work together as a team.
-Communication’s key. -Yeah.
-I don’t like to raise my voice. -Yeah.
Like, if it’s not a guest requesting it
or something, or it’s a provision or something,
-I get a bit pissed off. -Oh, yeah. Yeah.
This season I’m hoping to have a chef that I can just talk to.
And it’s not like these ----ing grenades
sh-- all over my face.
And 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.
It’s not that much to ask for.
Let’s see how the first few charters go.
Yeah.
[sighs]
[bleep], man.
I wonder if I fit in the shower.
How tall are you, man?
-Six foot four. -Six foot four?
Right. I’ll hit this.
Put a helmet on you.
All crew, all crew.
We’ll have a crew meeting in the main deck salon.
-Copy. -Can you get up to the salon?
Crew meeting, crew meeting.
Can’t be late for the first meeting.
-Let’s go, buddy. -I’m excited for this.
That’s going to be fun.
Is this everyone?
Right-o. Welcome to Northern Sun.
Thank you.
The weather’s going to be a bit strong.
That’s normal up here.
The reefs are good.
And there’s a good half a dozen, dozen reefs
that we’re going to visit over the season.
It’s a family vibe I like on board.
Be respectful for each person.
Zero drinking on charter.
Caught, off.
Whenever guests are in the water,
I like a crew member definitely close by
or in the water with them.
We have two engineers, Vlad and Dyma.
And the first officer, Dave, that will be with us.
Um... we have got two crew down.
Okay.
-We’re down two? -What’s going on?
Yeah, we’re two people down.
One of them was going to be at a deckhand.
However, he can’t make it.
So we’re finding a replacement.
We’ve got a charter tomorrow at 12 o’clock.
-It’s full on. -Wow.
-One in all in. -Yep, let’s go.
Thank you, Captain.
It’s not the way it was supposed to be.
I wanted a strong team this year,
but I’m two crew down.
Now I just need to work with what we’ve got.
It’s not a very good start.
Coming up...
Guests are five minutes out.
Oh, no!
I just split my skort.
[bleep] The guests can’t see my labia!
And later...
No! They acting like I’m crazy.
There’s a lot of drama happening.
[bleep] all y’all mother----ers.
Let’s just have a look and see what we’re working with.
Yeah, so just so.
Trying to do a million things at once.
Hi.
Could I order some knives, please?
Yes, tell me what you need.
Okay, if they have a set with a smaller chef knife and
a bigger one and a pastry knife, tweezers.
We’ll get that to you as quick as we can.
Thank you.
What’s all this stuff?
This is the centerboard for the sailboats.
-Oh, yeah? -That’s one for each of them?
-Yeah. -These are sea bobs.
We need to figure out this bad boy.
-What is this? -Electric surfboard.
Have you used them? Oh, sweet.
We’re in Cairns.
We’re on the Great Barrier Reef on an Explorer yacht.
Like, this is the dream job for me.
I was shown adventure at a very young age growing up.
I never did soccer or football.
I did sailing, scouts, surfing.
My goal in yachting is to be the captain of a boat
that goes places, an adventure boat.
I got it all planned out.
See, this boat’s got all the sh--.
Oh, my God, it’s awesome.
Oh, should we do a little stew meeting?
Where do you want me? Chief Stew, tell me.
Do you want to come up this way?
Yeah, I’m coming.
All right, so I’m not one of those dudes
that wants to boss you around. I’m an active leader.
I’m one of those dudes that wants to get in and, like,
come with me. I’ll show you how to do it.
We’re going to be very water sports-based.
So, man, let’s just have fun with that, okay?
First charter. Two people down.
Let’s go.
I’ve been bosun for the last two and a half years,
and then I was just promoted up to second officer.
But I hated it.
I was just on a computer all day, like,
it was boring.
Bosun’s the best gig.
My biggest thing is just don’t be lazy, man.
Deck down and a stew down?
-Yeah. -Good morale all the time.
That’s us.
So, just looking at your CV.
Some boats, I’m chef. Some boats, I’m a stewardess.
Passionate about theme events.
I’ve been an event organizer.
I love table settings.
I like everything all of this.
You’re going to be on decor?
-Yes. -Is that okay?
-Abso-----ing-lutely. -Absolutely.
Yes!
Before yachting, I ran my restaurant in Barcelona,
one table restaurant.
It was my baby.
Business was booming,
and when it was just perfect. COVID happened.
I couldn’t do my events anymore.
I ended up in yachting.
I’ve been in it for two years, but I progressed really quickly.
I’m a hustler. I’m a hustler.
I just want us to work together.
It’s tricky because you’ve also been a chief stew.
If I ever do correct you on anything,
remember not to take things personally.
That’s how you learn.
I have been graced with what
looks like a really strong second.
She just seems full of energy and very capable.
All crew, all crew. Provisions are here.
Copy.
How do you want to do this, brother?
Let’s get a bit of a train going.
Let’s bring it all in here, and then sort it from here down.
We’ve got to go, we’ve got to go.
-Grab some boxes, boys. -Heavy, heavy.
-Heavy. -Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
-You all right? -Yeah.
But I need to strengthen my arms.
The corridor is so narrow.
There’s a lot of stuff.
That’s everything on board now.
If we can focus on helping the interior in here...
-Yeah. -We can work into the night,
and get tomorrow ready.
-Okay? -Perfect.
Knives. Okay, brilliant.
Have you ever met anybody from New York?
Never.
Statue of Liberty is there, hey.
-Yeah, there it is. -Yeah.
And the Golden Gate Bridge?
No, that’s San Francisco.
San Fran.
For [bleep]’s sake.
All good here?
Um, a bit worried about space.
-You are? -Oh, yeah.
Tzarina’s got her work cut out here.
This is a converted old vessel.
Unfortunately, when they did the refit,
they didn’t think about the galley.
She’s got no service area,
the equipment’s old.
When it comes to yachting.
you definitely need a restaurant-style setup.
Oh, here I am thinking it went all the way back.
It’s hard to maneuver,
and it’s obviously hard to cook in, too.
Yeah.
She’s going to have to think outside the box on here.
Just trying to help.
Thank you.
My God, he’s so hot.
Are you here to help?
Yeah.
Do you know how to vacuum?
What am I vacuuming?
All the guest areas.
Done.
Serena, Aesha, and Luke.
Crew mess immediately for preference sheet meeting.
Copy, crew mess.
-Copy. -Copy.
Right-o, preference sheet meeting number one.
Ah!
Carmen’s the CEO of her own PR firm.
She’s bringing her best friend, Brandon.
Her other friends work in investment
and real estate firms.
They’re all very successful.
Primary requests to be greeted with lemon drop martini,
champagne for her guest,
a mocktail for Kristyl.
Kristyl doesn’t drink.
-Doesn’t drink? -She’s going to be a hoot.
The number of times that I’ve had people say
that they don’t drink, they’re vegan, blah, blah, blah.
And then an hour later, they’re sipping champagne
and swimming in meat.
They never stick with it through the whole trip.
It’s so annoying.
Itinerary requests.
They want to experience the Seawalker helmet diving,
which is over at Green Island.
Okay, cool.
A night one guest request to fine dine
on a seafood extravaganza.
I can do cake stands,
hang the lobster off and make it like,
holy sh--, it’s everything here.
It’s a lot of prep for you though, isn’t it?
I just have to deal with the lobsters and the crab
and stuff before, it should be okay.
One night two guest wants a Moulin Rouge theme party.
They welcome the crew to join in and form the Can-can.
Yeah, it’s going to be pretty raunchy.
Yeah.
I look pretty spastic when I dance,
so I don’t know if I’m cut out for it.
It’s the first charter.
You’ve got a good preference sheet here.
You can be on top of it.
One step ahead, okay?
I reckon you guys have got this.
Thank you so much.
-Cool. -Cool, guys.
This could be a really big disaster, you know.
I think we got this.
I’m going to careful with my little fingers tonight.
First day, cut my finger off.
So what time am I up?
Get up and 6:00 and start getting those cushions out.
Beds, toiletries, towels.
Once we’ve done those, we’ll knock off.
Okay.
ADHD. DDDDD.
I’m severely dyslexic, so I spend a long time
going through people’s preferences
and making sure that they get exactly what they want.
I just scan through and try and get into that person’s mindset
and pick it all together
to create something perfect for them.
But it takes me longer.
Hmm.
You realize how much one extra person makes a difference, huh?
Yeah. [sighs]
-Let’s go to bed, boys. -Yeah.
-Amazing. -Okay, good.
Such a good job.
-Good night, chef. -Good night.
Good first day.
Tzarina, you’re welcome to borrow anything of mine.
-Really? -Anything you need, just ask.
Oh, bollocks. My suitcase.
Where is it?
I don’t know.
I feel like most people would be having
bloody nervous breakdowns by now.
You’re just cruising.
Well, at least on the outside, you look like you are.
[alarm sounds]
[grunting]
-Good morning. -Good morning.
I need food.
All right.
So how long have you been out of Latvia for?
12 years, I haven’t lived there.
What made you leave?
Latvia.
Hmm.
That made me leave. Latvia.
Latvia got independence from Russia only 28 years ago,
so it’s still young.
We used to be in communism.
Everybody has the same clothes, same furniture, same everything.
When I was a child,
I always felt that that’s too small for me.
I turned 18, I packed my bags and I left.
I’ve been traveling ever since.
It’s too small. I have big personality.
I’m a little bit worried about this personality.
You’re smart.
People see me as an innocent, sweet girl,
but sometimes I can be the opposite.
I feel like that’s a warning.
-All right. Let’s go. -Okay.
-Good morning. -Woo-hoo-hoo!
Start rinsing for everything.
Aesha, Aesha.
Can you come into my cabin, please?
Yes.
So jealous.
-Um, contacts. -Yes.
Can you put them in for me?
I would love to. Oh my God. Are you serious?
I’ve tried all morning.
This is the most fun ever.
Would it be better out here?
Have you ever put them in?
-They’re brand new. -Oh my God.
I’m really into eyeballs.
I like touching them.
Okay.
You’ve got to look at me.
Look straight ahead.
Yep. Yep. There.
I think you got it.
-Oh yeah? -Yeah.
Cool.
What’s your family think about you being in Australia?
The kids don’t even understand where that is.
You know what I mean?
You’re the oldest then?
I’m the oldest of six.
My parents separated when I was five.
They both got remarried when I was seven.
So I have no full siblings, but I love being a big brother.
I look at them as my kids.
My ultimate goal is to get a house for my mom
and make sure my siblings are taken care of.
That’s what a man is, somebody that provides for his family.
The only thing on my mind
is just getting like the kids and my mom in a house.
We’ve always lived in apartment buildings like
paying someone else’s mortgage to live there.
So I just want my mom to stop working
like as soon as possible, bro.
That’s so nice, man.
Awesome. This is our Moulin Rouge stuff. Cheers.
Let’s give it a rinse. I’ll give it a scrub.
All crew, guest arrival is in one hour.
Starting to feel kind under the pump now, hey.
Just a bit.
Aesha, how can I help?
Iron crew uniforms.
-I got that covered. -Thank you so much.
This is not what you want to be doing
one hour before charter.
Hot hose, jacuzzi.
Let’s get the hard work done now.
----ing space!
Okay, I’ll walk around.
Um...
Looks good.
Done well in eight hours.
Beautiful.
All crew, guest arrival is 15 minutes.
All right, we need to get changed.
Yeah, man.
The interior looks so good.
It’s so good.
Okay. We need to get changed.
Yes.
The old two stripe.
What are these things you put in your shoulder called?
-Epaulets. -Epaulets.
Oh, no.
I just split my skort.
Oh, [bleep] off.
Guests are five minutes down, five minutes down.
We’ve got to get the champagne out.
----ing Christ.
-Game time, baby. -Let’s go, brother.
Oh, no.
We’ll be getting in position very soon.
-This one. -So beautiful.
All crew, all crew.
I’ll meet you on the aft deck immediately.
-Thank you. -Laura, Laura, Laura.
We got to go.
-Let’s do it. -This is it. First charter.
----ing hate doing mocktails.
Oh my God. I’m in Australia.
Here we go.
Yeah.
They look so good.
-Hey, guys. -Hello.
Welcome aboard.
-Hello. -Pleased to meet you.
-I’m Captain Jason. -Nice to meet you.
-Was yours a lemon drop? -Yes.
You’re doing a great job already.
-Hey, Brad. -Brad.
-Good night, mate. -Brandon. I need help.
I got you.
Do you drink or not?
I do. I was on a spiritual journey,
but I would like extra alcohol in that please.
-Okay, so you.... -I do drink.
-You want a cocktail? -Yeah.
Honestly.
I need alcohol now.
She’s giving up being sober.
You’re going to put some Bacardi in.
Yes.
Hey, guys. Welcome aboard Northern Sun.
She’s going to show you around.
We’re going to get started up.
-Get out of here. -Nice.
I need my drink quick, please.
-Yep, Laura. -Laura.
I’m on vacation. Empty handed.
Laura. Oh, there’s Laura.
I heard your name.
-Here we go. -Let me tell you something.
-There’s some rum in there. -I like it. Thank you.
-Let’s go, boys. -Luggage.
Okay, come this way.
Oh, golly. Look at my ponytail.
So, this is the jacuzzi spa area.
I like this area already.
-This is nice. -Let’s go down.
I’ll show you the rest.
This is a bougie crew.
Yeah.
-Here we go. -All right.
We’ll go into the master.
This is the biggest room.
Let me just feel the vibe. It’s telling me Carmen.
Carmen has a nice bathroom.
You got a shower and a tub.
This is one of the other cabins.
It is a double, a single, and a queen.
You all take that one.
I actually want to sleep with my husband.
Well, that’s a first.
Aesha, Aesha, the charcuterie is done.
All right. That’s it, guys.
All right. Let’s get this gangway away.
Laura, Laura, can you bring the platters up to the bar?
Copy.
What we’ll do is take all the lines from fore to aft off.
Bow thrust out, take last line off, and drive forward.
This wind is going to keep pushing me on.
Just be ready to have a fender there.
-Okay. -I love it.
We have to figure out this room situation.
-We can’t move forward. -It actually works out.
I’m staying with Carmen in the primary,
so we can get some Brandon Carmen time.
I’m want to make it fair, though.
I already set my luggage there.
I’m going at the... Yes.
I don’t have a voice around here.
What is for lunch?
Mahi mahi platters, and salads.
Okay.
There’s no ----ing space here,
even though it’s a ----ing huge boat.
Oh, beautiful. Charcuterie.
Now, this is the yacht version of a charcuterie board.
This is the best charcuterie board I’ve had.
Amazing.
We’ll split up because we’re down a man.
Are you happy to do the bow by yourself?
-Yeah. -We’re dropping from
bow to stern, and I’ll call him off the dock from here.
Cool.
So on commercial boats, spring lines first,
and then offshore stern lines, but then...
You call that offshore as well, right?
-Yes. -Yeah.
The stern thrust is good. We check that.
Okay. Ready to go.
Do you want to go change into your blue?
Luke, let me know when your team’s ready.
Hey, Bridge. We’re standing by on aft.
Let’s get this boat off the dock.
Single up on that stern line.
All right.
No, you... What the... What is that?
Bridge, that is singled up down aft.
Now, we’re going to take the stern line off?
No, no.
We’re going to start from the bow and come all the way down.
Sorry, man. I didn’t think you were going to go down there.
It’s all right, brother.
I’m out of my element, bro. That’s it.
It’s easier to catch it from there than down there.
The boat itself is a challenge.
When a boat’s got two propellers,
it wants to go straight.
This vessel’s got one propeller, so it only moves one way.
And that way is always to the right.
I’m on the dock here.
The wind’s blowing me on the dock.
The only way the boat wants to move is into the dock.
There’s no other way to get the boat off,
but to try and get it out in the wind and then drive.
That’s pressure.
I’m not going to crash twice on this marina.
I promise you.
So we can take number one line, number two line off quickly.
One and two. All right.
Thank you.
Number one and number two lines are clear.
Take all lines off. All lines off.
All right. Now you do your line and I’ll drop on the fender.
Yeah, drop it.
Bridge, that’s all lines off.
-Hey, hey, hey. -It’s about to crunch.
-We want this fender. -Got it.
-In here? In here? -Whoa, quickly.
Oh, my God.
Bridge, we need to kick the stern over.
Oh, sh--.
Bridge. We’re good.
We go two meters separation from the dock down.
Good work, mate.
How close was that?
[bleep], that was close.
-Good job, brother. -How did we not hit that?
-Real good job. -How did we not hit?
Captain did so well.
You have been doing such a good job, man.
I really appreciate it.
Cheers, mate.
It’s a hard boat to drive.
I’m ready.
Laura? She’s going to be sick of me.
I’ve been calling Laura’s name.
-How’s it coming? -Just make a circle. Yep.
Harry, if you get your lines flaked up there,
we’ll help you put them away.
I’m doing that right now. Thank you.
Legend. Thanks, mate.
[yawns]
Well done, mate. That was good.
Yeah. Thanks.
Here’s the thing.
Like, I get seasick and I’m afraid of water.
In maritime school, they make you take this swimming test.
I was like, okay, I doggy paddle like anybody.
And the swim coach is like, no, you failed.
They put me in remedial swim for three months.
I slipped the swim coach $20. I didn’t learn to swim.
Laura. Laura.
Yeah, you guys okay?
No. Emergency.
Can we get water, a bucket of ice, and Pinot Grigio.
Pinot Grigio?
-Can I get a little cham? -Yes.
Laura. Laura. Laura. Laura. Laura.
This is day one, guys.
Laura, Laura, Laura, Laura.
Laura!
Not down here.
Got a million things.
The girls have their hands full, man.
Yeah, dude.
You know what pineapple do?
I’m going to stick this pineapple fish up your ass.
Oh, my God.
Laura, where are you?
One deck crew break away and find Laura for Aesha, please.
And assist on the interior for anything.
Yes.
That was way too long.
You just need to change really quickly.
We’ve got Laura in the pantry.
We’ve got so much to do.
So what?
Looking good for a job is important
because it shows how much you care.
In Latvia, it’s all about beauty.
You brush, put the lips, and you’re good.
If it takes time, it just takes time.
They’re asking for 50 million things.
We look hot.
You’re checking me out or what?
I’m checking me out.
In every reflective surface.
-You’re double-fisting. -Cheers.
Cheers.
This is our life and we’re living it.
We’re living the best life.
How’s your first day been?
It’s good.
Have you heard anything about your luggage?
-No. -Nothing, huh?
The gods against me today.
Who run the world?
-Gays. -Girls.
You’re my best friend. Say it loud to Carmen.
Now.
-She’s stealing. -I’ll fight for Brandon.
You will lose on that one.
I’m a winner. I win every time.
No, I’m a winner. You’re here because of me.
What’s your name?
This is getting shady.
You’re at like a level-five stupid.
We’ll just start setting up lunch here.
Okay, cool.
We’re going to eat lunch and then we’re going to go
to the island, right?
-Yeah. -Cool.
That’s what I want.
Oh, it just starts to rain.
It’s raining.
No, it just looks better to go like that and then forward.
Yeah.
Where do I do this?
Ah.
Come on.
Deck, Deck.
I’ll be coming into anchorage soon.
-Copy, thanks, mate. -Thank God.
-Oh, the table looks beautiful. -Thank you.
Oh, the weather changed so rapidly.
Bridge, port anchor, ready to drop.
Drop, drop, drop.
That is two shackles to the water line.
Good work, mate.
I’m so happy we stopped moving.
Aesha, Aesha. Can I get service, please?
Laura, Laura.
Can you start taking it up?
My favorite thing in the world,
a pickle, a cashew, and a block of cheese.
-Can I take a salad? -Yeah.
-Prawn with fresh chili. -Fresh chili?
-Yeah. -Okay.
The first lunch is really a lot of pressure.
I’ve had really difficult clients grab my plates
of food and chuck them over the side
to be like, go and fetch it yourself.
Woo!
The deckhand had to dodge out of the way.
Since then every dish I’m ----ing sh--ting myself.
-Kale? -I’ll have kale, yeah.
Who would like some mahi mahi?
Yes.
-I love mahi mahi. Thank you. -There you go.
Wow.
That’s good.
That fish is amazing.
Amazing.
I’m excited to get this thing in the water.
Come down and help us put this in.
Okay.
You’re amazing.
-They say they like them. -That’s good.
-Ready? -Ready. Pick up.
Keep that stern in.
Too much wine in the mineral water.
I’m happy.
Thank you.
Krissy.
Are you kidding me? Don’t do that.
-No. That’s... -You’re being petty.
No, no, no, no.
No, there was something on your mouth.
That’s what we did. That’s what we did.
I know it was something in my mouth,
but you’re being petty.
Would you rather me see something on you
and not tell you that it’s there?
I would rather you not say anything
because you’re being petty.
I’m a queen of the universe.
No, I don’t do this.
-Krissy... -Hello.
Are you guys satisfied?
Yeah, I’m ready to get out of this mother----er.
Yes. I’m happy. That’s what matters.
Yeah?
What the [bleep] just happened?
Well, I don’t know.
-She didn’t like whatever the... -This is ----ing bullsh--.
And she’s ----ing drunk.
All righty.
She’s trying to get a reaction.
We need to talk.
No, they’re acting like I’m crazy.
Krissy!
[bleep] all y’all mother----ers.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I didn’t sign up for this.
We got on the boat five minutes ago.
Sh--. Oh, my God.
Seriously, go away.
They’re on a super yacht in one of the most
beautiful parts of the world.
And they’re fighting.
This is a ----ing nightmare.
This sh-- is bullsh--.
Yo, we just got on the boat five minutes ago.
This is not okay.
Oh, my God.
I remember my first beer.
Hey, mate.
Tender’s on the swim plat ready to go.
Yeah.
It’s just off this research vessel here, is that correct?
Yeah. Throw them up there.
They’ll suit up and do underwater diving
with helmets on.
Seawalker helmet diving.
And I’ll just float with them.
Okay.
I’ve been to Green Island many times,
usually scuba diving. It’s a marine sanctuary.
So the fish will come straight up to you.
The sea helmet walk suits anybody
because you don’t have to do your dive certificate.
So it’s a perfect introduction to the underwater world.
Thanks so much, Cap.
Good on you.
Aesha, Aesha.
I’m just letting you know I’ve got guests in the tender
ready to go.
You need to leave now, right?
Yeah, we do.
-Uh-oh. -Get the door!
Did you guys want to come swimming?
No. Aesha, we’re going to sit in the room all day.
-What do you think? -You’ve got to go now.
Yeah.
-Hello, ladies. -Let’s go.
I want to get in the water.
Ready for a bit of underwater action?
I’m going to be the most adventurous person
ever in my life.
I’m liking this vibe.
Let’s go. Let’s go.
Oh, that’s a long step.
I got this.
-All right. -Ready to go diving?
Whoo!
[shrieks]
We almost kissed then.
You would have to explain that to your boyfriend.
-Do it. -Ah!
Ah!
Wait! Up!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
-Okay. -Too many steps.
Welcome to Green Island.
We’re going to head up here to the right.
I know.
I’m really sorry. It’s such a long day today.
Because there’s only two of us, we can’t do, like, full breaks.
I’m not even thinking about a break.
I was just going to say,
do you want to go sit down for half an hour?
Are you crazy?
I just don’t...
Are you crazy?
Oh, my God, you’re so nice.
I love you.
All right. Come on in.
We’ll get the suits on now.
We put it over our clothes?
Yeah.
I don’t want to put my bare crotch on these, so, yeah.
I gotta get my foot in.
Yeah, I should have pee-peed first.
Just go pee-pee in the suit.
-Ew. -Game on.
Let’s go then, team.
I have to get in the boat, too?
-And we’re off. -And we’re off.
Let’s get excited.
-This is us. -Woo!
Game time, baby.
Oh, my God.
Are we ready?
Ladies first.
This is amazing.
Girl, I’m so excited.
Yeah, that’s it. Well done.
[screams]
Going down, nice and slow.
This is unreal.
What makes me happy is just always chasing
the next bit of excitement.
I want that serotonin hit.
Like I want my energy levels to be here
and I want my happiness to be even higher.
I love finding the next new thing.
I’m chasing my dreams.
-That was good. -Oh my God.
-Right there? -I ----ing love you.
Yeah, of course.
That’s crazy you guys are down one person.
I know.
And you’re still making it happen though.
You just got to roll with it, you know?
You’re doing good.
Everything’s just so ----ing messy.
This kitchen is doing something to my brain.
Copy, tender inbound in five minutes.
That’s too tight.
We need to change before this ----ing dinner.
Okay, start moving into nights, please.
Bro hug.
And you as well.
You want we in there?
Yeah, 100%.
Well done.
Boys, I’m sorry that we kind of just smashed it out today.
It’s all right, no breaks, no nothing, but it’s fine.
All right, it’s seven o’clock now.
Go down now.
I’m down. Because we’re down a man.
We need rest, do you know what I mean?
Yep. You’re up at four o’clock.
-I’ll have a work list for you. -Four, yeah.
I’m going to do the six and he’s going to be out later on.
He doesn’t want to get up early. He’s not that guy.
I’m not that guy, absolutely not.
Adam, get into your blacks.
And then we’ll pack the tender away.
Okay, copy.
I’m not good at swimming.
My leg is sore. My back is sore.
Everything is sore.
Laura, Laura?
Okay, coming in one minute.
Oh, my God.
Laura, Laura?
Ugh.
Laura, Laura, are you able to start pulling for dinner?
Do you need help right now?
Let me just put this in the oven.
-Mind putting that in the sink? -Yeah, sure.
All good?
No.
Just trying to get a order flowing.
I really thought I’d be able to handle this a lot better.
How’s your pots and pans?
Trying to do the crab, but I’ve only got that one pot.
Yep, it’s a challenge.
Messy surroundings, messy brain.
Tonight, we have seafood extravaganza,
tiger prawn, crab, lobsters, oysters.
I’ve just got a lot of seafood to do,
and I have about that much space to do everything.
Not used to working like that.
Everything’s so ----ing messy.
Look, it’s day one. You’ve done all the provisions.
-Let’s get through it. -Mm.
Yeah, look, it’s day one. You’ve done all the provisions.
Let’s just get through it.
Mm.
Do you want me to work on these, see if it helps?
I’d give anything. I’m so far behind.
Have you got a lid for this?
Just put foil on top.
Okay.
You’re taking control, captain.
I’m just in charge of crabs.
My hero.
You’re skipping dinner.
-Hey, Adam. -Yeah?
Drop that bow line for me.
So when do I know when I can throw it on the boat?
Normally, it’s not good to throw the line.
-Like, you can pass it to me. -Okay.
Otherwise, it’ll end up in the ----ing water.
-Perfect. -Ta-da!
Next.
Ow!
Spikies! I need my gloves on.
Captain’s cooking for me.
We’re on to something, aren’t we?
And we’ve got an hour.
So slowly catching up.
You cook a lot, don’t you?
Fuchsia, the mother of my child. She was a chef on yachts.
I’ve always loved cooking.
And Saskia’s mother is fantastic.
We run a business together. We co-parent.
And I’ve learned a lot by watching her.
So if I can help out, I’m going to help out.
So you’re going to go up and put everything on the table?
Yeah, yeah, I will.
Well, you can get on with it now.
-Yeah. -You got through the hump.
I can leave you in peace.
You’ve been my hero.
I love this color scheme.
Yo!
Because there’s only two of us while I’m doing dinner,
if you just turn down cabins.
Can the third stew do it, please?
I know. There’s so much to do.
Yeah.
Ready, mate? Okay.
Not too much.
All right. Cool, mate.
Woo!
Now go and help in the galley?
Yeah, man.
-Good job, brother. -Thanks so much.
Oh.
Not exactly how I pictured it.
-Cheffy? -Yeah.
10 minutes.
Do you want me to help you take stuff up?
You can put the newspaper bits
in the middle and the crab things.
And then I can plate it on there.
-Cool. -What’s going on?
I’m going to need help carrying stuff upstairs.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, I’m here.
-Can you take these up? -Okay.
There’s the good stuff.
Oh, my God. I love this.
I love being a gay man.
That looks so good.
Smells amazing.
-You look gorgeous. -Thank you.
-Are you ready, Brandon? -Enchante.
-Okay. -Let’s go.
Thank you so much, guys.
This looks amazing.
Wow.
That is an extravaganza.
I think that’s everything.
Oh, my God. I love this.
Ah! Look at this dinner!
-Jeez. Wow. -Caviar with gold.
That is one hell of a crab claw.
-Can we eat? -Yes, absolutely.
Slide on there.
Yeah. Where’s Krissy at?
She’s asleep.
Oh is she out?
[snoring]
Luke, come and see me, please.
Copy, captain.
We have king prawns, lobster tails.
I think you have everything.
-Dive in. -Thank you.
-Enjoy.
-Well done. -Thank you.
I’m so excited about this right now.
-These are amazing. -So good.
That’s really good.
-How are you, mate? -Very good. That’s tender away.
Good work, mate. Big day.
You need to get the crew to fill out their hours of rest.
Put a system together so they got eight hours sleep.
Okay.
We’ll be down at 10 and one of the boys is already down now.
Mmm... No.
This one.
No, you should leave someone up with the guests.
Help the stewardess until they go to bed.
Yeah.
Tomorrow, we’ve got another crew member join us in the morning.
The stewardess is in.
-I’m trying to get a deck hand. -I appreciate it.
The best thing I see about Luke already,
he’s taking ownership of the deck.
When I communicate with Luke,
he’s listening and he’s proactive about it.
Hot hose. Jacuzzi.
Bridge, we need to kick the stern over.
Oh, sh--.
-We’re good. -Good work, mate.
You can see that he’s got the ability to be a strong leader.
We’re going to learn a lot today with everything, you know,
the vessels characteristics.
It’s new for us all and we did well.
We’re going to get better and better.
You keep doing what you’re doing.
Thank you so much.
-Good on you, brother. -Appreciate it.
See you in the morning.
Laura, Laura. Do you want to pop down to the cabins?
Yeah, I will.
This is caviar.
-Don’t tell Brandon. -I won’t.
It’s good.
You didn’t say what it was.
Just swallow. You’re used to doing that.
It’s not funny, Rhoda. So piss off.
Brandon, bring your octave down.
-Okay, fine. Sorry. -No, it’s not fine.
Okay, well, how the [bleep] do you open that?
You didn’t do anything.
-How’s the food? -Love it. Like, it’s...
Oysters were amazing.
Yes.
Thank you, Aesha.
-Pleasure. -Oh, my God.
I’m over it.
Brandon’s ----ing wasted.
Exactly.
-Aesha, Laura. -Go ahead.
I’ve finished work in the cabins.
Copy, thank you.
I love Brandon’s to death, but he’s a ----ing trainwreck.
They’re so annoying.
-Finger and crabs? -Yeah.
How’s your technique?
Oh, there’s something you know.
You’re naughty.
I’m totally ready to fall in love with someone on a yacht
because I’m about to turn 30 and
it’s a big pressure from my family, from my friends.
In Latvia, you get married when you’re 20.
You get kids when you’re 20.
-I love your accent. -I love yours.
So half of them are already in bed.
I’m going to start clearing stuff.
-Does that mean no dessert? -Yeah.
On that note, I will see you ladies in the morning.
-Have a good night. -Thank you, babe.
I need to find my own cigarettes.
Oh, my God. Wait.
This is the best thing I’ve ever tasted.
Ah!
Where is, sorry,
can I get one more glass of champs and I’ll go to bed?
Yes. Here.
I apologize. I promise. I’ll be out of your hair.
I will be out of your hair.
Thank you, love.
I’ll see you in the morning.
Go get some rest.
Love it.
-Have a good sleep. -Yes.
[yawns]
-Hello. -Hello.
You are a mess in here.
-We’re not a mess -You are now.
Because I just got here.
How do you feel your first day was?
Terrible.
Oh.
They loved it.
I mean, Captain helped me a lot.
The fact that I needed help, it’s a sh--ty feeling.
I wouldn’t beat yourself up.
Yeah, I know.
What do I do with my stuff that I need for tomorrow morning?
Your personals, put it in
and we’ll put it on the dryer before I go to bed.
-Okay. Goodnight. -See you.
Goodnight.
-How are you? -I’m just tired.
Yeah? Awesome.
Thank God.
Because there’s only two of us.
It makes sense for me to go down now
and then you to go down later and then I’ll start earlier
and you start later.
That’s perfect.
We’re in adventure.
It’s going to be a big ----ing day tomorrow.
So just dishwasher and then the machines put those in.
Aesha.
I’m having a cocktail up here.
[sighs]
Coming up...
Guys.
Captain, the guests jump in the water.
Really?
This is a very dangerous situation.
If I was a shark, I’d be out right now looking for food.
Aesha.
I’m being obnoxious.
Yes.
I’m having a cocktail up here. I know. I know.
I’m sorry. I’m sorry.
-Okay. Goodnight. -Goodnight, honey.
I’m like, okay. Fine. Relax.
Could Aesha come out here for a minute?
She’s down for tonight.
-Oh, she’s done? -Yeah.
-Okay. -You have me.
Don’t tempt me with a good time.
Double bag that one?
-Yeah. -That’s pretty much it for us.
That’s it.
Laura, have all the guests gone to bed?
One of them is still there.
The majority, yes.
All right.
I’m leaving before sh-- gets weird.
-Thank you. -Adam, we’ll go get some sleep.
All right.
I know Jason wanted someone up, but I want to be strategic.
Looking after our team. We’re a man down.
If we keep everybody up, we’re going to have tired bodies
walking around on deck tomorrow.
You know if we have any gel on board?
-Hair gel? -Yeah, like hair gel.
Whoa.
Now you’re going full Brooklyn on us.
-Full Brooklyn, bro. -Yeah.
Yeah, I didn’t bring my gold chain.
I need to smoke a cigarette. I need to smoke.
I need cigarettes.
[bleep], sunburn.
I got to go to sleep.
Brandon, the night is young.
[Brandon shouts]
Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go swimming.
Yes.
Hello? Hello.
-Oh my God. -Can we go night swimming?
-Sorry? -Can we go night swimming?
No, you can’t go swimming.
We can’t.
No, you’re under influence and there’s no one with you.
It’s dark and we don’t see you.
So we can’t take a dip.
Okay, I love that.
-So... -Thanks for asking.
Yes.
So we’re gonna go swimming.
Just kidding.
Okay.
So we have to like hide that we’re gonna go swimming.
-Yeah, let’s do it. -We’re gonna go swimming.
It’s pitch black.
It’s a full moon, bitch.
It’s us, bitch.
I know.
Guys?
Guys, I was very clear with you.
If you jump in the water, the party is over.
Oh, you said that?
And I was serious about it.
I will need to talk with captain.
Bloop, bloop, bitch.
I thought you were holding me.
They don’t know Laura can get angry.
Captain?
Yeah?
The guests jump in the water after I warn them
if they do so the party will be over.
Who’s on? Just you and?
I don’t know.
Luke, Luke, you copy?
Anyone awake?
I don’t really know.
Luke, Luke, you copy?
Are you kidding me?
Really?
This is a very dangerous situation.
I’ve got no deck crew. They’re all asleep.
We’ve got reef sharks. We’ve got strong currents.
We’ve got boxed jellyfish.
Those people could jump in the water and not come back up.
They’re my lives. It’s my responsibility.
And I’ve got to keep them out of harm’s way.
It just can’t be tolerated.
You told them not to go for a swim.
Yes, I said if they go, the party’s over.
If I was a shark, I’d be out right now looking for food.
Look at this Baywatch.
They took it to another level.
Yeah, that’s out of the question.
-It’s too dangerous. -I know.
She told you not to swim and you did.
let me put my titties away.
I know. We get it.
We’ve got current, we’ve got sharks,
we’ve got jellyfish. You’ve got everything.
Right.
It’s out of the question,
especially when you’ve been drinking so much.
You go back in the water, we’ll go back to the marina.
On my vacation. I’m the captain of the ship.
You’ll learn it tomorrow.
No. We’re done.
I’m highly upset.
So you went that next step, I’m going to go that next one.
So now, we’ll head back to the marina tomorrow.
