What I Watched Today

(rambling, random thoughts & annoyingly detailed recaps from real time TV watching)

 

👸 Hopefully, I didn’t miss any editing here. I had an appointment during GH time, and had to catch it on the fly later. The appointment was for my hair. My hairstylist said she had her work cut out for her. It’s been a while. Enough said.

General Hospital

The pastor says, a marriage is more than a union of souls; it’s a bridge. Two families coming together as one. He says the speak now or forever hold your peace thing, and they hear a door bang. Stella walks in.

Drew asks if Oscar there to see Julian, and Kim asks if something happened. Oscar says, something happened. Josslyn came to see him.

Carly finds Josslyn, and asks what happened. Josslyn says, Oscar, and Carly thinks it was an argument. Josslyn says he didn’t break her heart. Carly asks why she’s crying.

TJ tries to stop Stella, but she says she has to speak her piece. She approaches Curtis and Jordan, and says she’s sorry she’s late to the wedding. It took her a while to get there but she’s there now and hopes they forgive her. She sits. The ceremony continues. The pastor says, if you get there before it’s over, you’re on time.

Oscar says Cameron and Josslyn were only together to make him jealous. He deserved it. What he did to push Josslyn away blew up in his face. Kim swears she didn’t tell Josslyn, and he says Cameron did. Drew isn’t following, but he’s glad it happened. Kim says there’s been too much secret keeping going on. Oscar is glad Cameron told Josslyn, and Oscar told her everything. Monica comes out with Julian wondering what’s keeping them. Oscar tells Julian that he cleaned up and locked up. Monica says pizza is traditional on Thanksgiving there, and there’s a box with his name on it, confusing me, since, wasn’t the pizza mixed up with the food donation yesterday? Oscar says he’s changed his mind. He’s going ahead with the medical treatment. Happiness abounds.

Josslyn tells Carly, Oscar is really, really sick. He has a malignant brain tumor. Carly asks if she’s sure, and Josslyn says his mom knew for two years, and he found out a couple of months ago. That’s why broke up with her. He didn’t want her to deal with it. Carly is sorry. Josslyn can’t believe Kim kept it from him, but Carly is sure she did what she thought was best. She doesn’t know what she’d do, and prays she won’t have to find out. Josslyn says Cameron told her. He found out around same time Oscar did, and Oscar made him swear to keep it a secret, but he couldn’t do it anymore. Carly asks what Josslyn thinks they should do, but she doesn’t know. She tells Carly about the experimental procedure, and says, Oscar is fighting them on it. He doesn’t want to take the risk, but if he doesn’t have it, he has less than a year to live.

The pastor reads the vows. Curtis and Jordan say they’ll have each other as long as they live. The pastor asks everyone to uphold them in their marriage. It’s time for the rings to be exchanged.  Nina pretends not to have it and Curtis nearly has a heart attack. Lulu asks Griff what’s wrong. He says Kiki was supposed to meet him, but he guesses she got held up. The rings are exchanged. The pastor says, with the joining of hands, and giving and receiving of rings, he pronounces them husband and wife. What God has joined together, let no man put asunder. They kiss.

Josslyn is sorry for being a baby. Carly says she’s being brave. Josslyn tells Carly she’s terrified, but Carly says, for now, try and be thankful. He might die. It might be little comfort, but they all will. Whether it’s Oscar’s time or not, is out of their hands, Josslyn did her best to convince him to fight, but it’s Oscar’s choice. She can’t make it for him.

Kim says this is the answer to her prayers. Drew says it’s a reason to give thanks. Monica says the pizza is in the living room. Kim doesn’t know what Monica, said but can’t thank her enough. Monica doesn’t think she was the deciding factor. Oscar says Josslyn made him realize taking risk was worth it if he can spend more time with her. Kim says they owe her their thanks. Julian wonders if he’s lost his number one busboy. Oscar still plans on working and living with his friends, and Kim asks, why? Oscar says he’s not ready for all that, and Drew says, one step at a time. He’s just glad Oscar is back with the family. Everything else will work itself out. Oscar says as long as Josslyn is included. She’s the only reason he’s going through with it.

Griff leaves Kiki another message, thinking she meant she’d meet him at the reception. He has good news to share. Laura asks if he still hasn’t heard from Kiki, and he says he doesn’t think he’s being stood up. Laura noticed they had a heated argument, and Griff supposes it was hard to miss. He says, it’s over now, and the best part of an argument is making up. Laura says, until you can’t.

Stella comes in with Molly and TJ. Molly thinks the place is amazing, but TJ says, not as amazing as the scene at the church. Stella says he underestimates her love of cake and champagne. Nina introduces the wedded couple.

TJ tells Curtis, take care of his mom, and Curtis promises. Curtis thanks everyone for coming out and supporting them. They have no idea how much it means to him. Stella approaches Jordan. She says she’s kept this for all these years in what used to be called a hope chest. She wasn’t fortunate enough to be a bride, but today is Jordan’s day, and she’d be honored if Jordan accepted it. She gives Jordan a fancy hanky. Molly says it’s the something old that was missing; the handkerchief. Stella is glad she added that last part. The first dance happens.

Drew asks if Kim is okay. She’s all over the place. She’s elated Oscar agreed to the trial, and thankful Josslyn convinced him, but sad that he’s still keeping her at arm’s length. Talking to him is like walking on eggshells, and she hates it; they’ve always been close. Drew says it’s overwhelming for everybody. She says it’s her fault, keeping it from him, but Drew is just happy that Oscar came to it on his own. He wonders if she’s upset because Julian didn’t follow through with the plan to kidnap their son, but everything worked out. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, he has someone he needs to express extreme gratitude to. He puts on his coat, and she asks him to tell Josslyn she says thank you too.

The cake is cut. It’s decorated in a black and white motif with a little silver bling. Lulu says Laura is putting on great front, but she knows something happened. Laura says she went to the gallery to return Ava’s donation, and she caught Ava with Doc. Lulu asks, how? and Laura says, in a passionate kiss. Lulu thinks it makes no sense. Laura says she had to see it to believe it. It hurts and she’s angry, but she still can’t stop worrying about him. Something is wrong. He’s had a major emotional shift, and isn’t acting like himself.

Nina asks to talk to Griff. She wonders where Kiki is, but he’s not sure. She asks if he’s talked to the police. If not, Chase is there, and he can tell Chase how Ava assaulted Sasha. He tells her that he and Kiki decided not to press charges. She says Ava assaulted her daughter by drugging her, and Ava will pay. It’s time for the bouquet throw, and Nina is dragged off. TJ tells Stella that she’s still a single lady, but she says she’s good eating cake. Nina catches it.

Josslyn feels outside of herself. It feels like she’ll wake up and it will all be a dream, but she knows it’s not. The last time felt like this was… Carly says, when Morgan died. Her too. She says Jason told her something she’s never forgotten; bad things happen fast, but we live through them slow. Sometimes things happen that are so bad and horrible, we can’t process it all at once, so we just go through it. Hour by hour; minute by minute. The house phone rings. Carly says, thank you, and tells Josslyn that she has a visitor.

Oscar likes the tradition of pizza on Thanksgiving. Monica says, the sign of a true Quartermaine. They’ve all had no choice but to like it. He thanks her for the history lesson about her family. She says he can start by referring to it as their family. He thanks her for the what ifs too, and she says, with treatment, hopefully those aren’t a factor anymore. And if anyone calls him a quitter, refer them to her.

Julian asks Kim if she doesn’t think it worked out better than forcing Oscar into treatment. She’s happy for that, and relieved, but she needed help. She thought he’d be there, but he lied to her. He says he wanted to help, but couldn’t do it for Oscar’s sake. She says it was her call, not his, but he says she involved him. He’s always there for her, and she knows that. She says she thought so, but she’s not so sure. She’s sorry, but she can’t trust him. She walks away, and he’s like, what?

Josslyn asks Drew if everything is all right with Oscar. He says, better than in a long time, and he has her to thank for it.

Curtis asks Stella if he can have this dance. He’s so glad to see her there. She says not as glad as she is to be there. She tells him that he looks handsome and happy, and he asks what made her change her mind. She says, a lot of things. She’s been mulling over Mike’s very wise words for a while, and ran into an old friend. It was a wakeup call; a reminder of what matters in this life, and what doesn’t.

Anna asks Finn to dance, and he asks if she values her toes. They dance, and as usual, their shoes are LOUD. She asks if Finn is planning on visiting Hayden. Isn’t he curious? Everyone shoes go, clonk-clonk-clonk. Finn says Hayden never mentioned a location, date, or time. Anna tells him that whatever he decides, she’s okay with it.

Griff finds Kiki’s door open. He goes inside, and calls her name, saying she left her door open. He looks in the bedroom, but she’s not there. He sees a broken glass on the floor.

Lulu tells Nina that Charlotte can’t wait to see The Nutcracker. Nina says she’ll have Charlotte call when they’ve settled into the hotel. Lulu tells her to make sure she sends pictures. Nina starts to go, leaving the bouquet on the table, but comes back for it.

TJ announces that the newly married couple is ready to depart; man your stations. Jordan says, here we go, and Curtis says they’re going to get started on their happily ever after. They walk down the bubble gauntlet and on to the honeymoon suite.

Alexis arrives at the Quartermaine’s as Julian is leaving. He tells her that Olivia invited him for dinner; can she believe it? Alexis says she’s there on business. Oscar called her. She asks if he has any idea what it’s about, and he tells her to ask him herself, and tell them goodbye; he wants to take off. He leaves, and Alexis goes in. She says her client phoned her. Anyone know what it’s about? Oscar says, with all due respect, she’s fired.

Drew tells Josslyn that Oscar agreed to the amino therapy trial. Carly says that’s great news, but Josslyn asks if he’s sure he’s not just hearing what he wants to. Drew says Oscar made the decision. He doesn’t know what she said, but she convinced him. He and Oscar’s mother are eternally grateful. Josslyn just wants him better, and Drew says, they all do. he says there are no guarantees, but it’s Oscar’s best chance. It’s just a chance. Josslyn says, whatever happens, she’ll be there for Oscar.

Griff calls Kiki again. He says it looks like she left in a hurry. Maybe they got their signals crossed, and she’s there. He’s going back to the reception. He says she left her shawl, and he’ll bring it. He picks it up, starts to leave, and looks back one more time.

Oscar appreciates Alexis taking the case, but decided to go ahead with the clinical trial. He won’t be needing her. She says she was never so happy not to file papers. Kim says he had help from a friend, and Monica supposes a very wise attorney as well. Alexis says, it’s good news, and a lot to be thankful for. Kim wonders about her bill, and Oscar says he’ll pay it. He plans on continuing to work. Alexis tells him to set up a college fund. She won’t take a penny. She just wants him to get better. She tells everyone, happy Thanksgiving.

Carly asks Josslyn how she is, and she says, better, now that Oscar will be getting treatment. Her phone rings. It’s Oscar, and Carly says she’ll let Josslyn have her privacy. Josslyn tells Oscar it’s good to see his name on her screen again. Oscar tells her that he just fired his lawyer. Josslyn asks how she took it, and he thinks she was relieved. She probably wanted him to have the treatment all along.

Drew comes back to the Quartermaine’s, and Kim asks how it went. He says Carly and Josslyn said they’d be there if their needed. He asks how Oscar is, and Kim says, good. He fired Alexis. He’s on the phone with Josslyn. He made it clear that he’s only doing it for Josslyn, and he’s definitely not ready to forgive her. Drew says, one step at a time. If the treatment works, they have the rest of his life to make it up.

Peter asks if Maxie needs a ride home. She says, that would be nice, but he hasn’t danced. It’s bad form not to dance at a wedding. They dance. Finn asks if Anna’s toes still hurt. Anna watches Peter and Maxie, and says it’s the first Thanksgiving her son has spent with her. Finn says, there are more to look forward to.

Valerie tells Chase that she got a call from the K-9 department. They wanted to know why one of their dogs was double-booked for public outreach. Since when do they do that? Lulu speaks into her recorder, saying, idea for a story. The wedding of Ashford and Ashford was more than just a photo op. On this Thanksgiving Day, it’s a real life love story with a happy ending, to remind us that love really can conquer all.

Griff sees blood on Kiki’s pashmina.

In the hallway of the hotel, Curtis tells Jordan that he wishes he had a better way to say this. She’s surprised the smoothest talker she knows is at a loss for words. He says he loves her, and thanks her for marrying him, and making him the happiest man alive. She didn’t always make it easy. Jordan says, the best things never are. They kiss.

Curtis says now they’re ready to get their wedding night started. He wants to carry his queen over the threshold. He picks her up, and brings her into their room. He puts her down, and she says, oh my God. There’s a body in the room.

Next time, Charlotte surprises Nina, Laura tells Elizabeth it’s easier said than done, and Jordan tells Curtis it looks like they have company.

Below Deck

Captain Lee tells Chandler that he thinks the time has come for them to have this chat he’s been putting off. He thinks it’s time to part company. They don’t have a chemistry, and he thinks Chandler can feel it too; it’s not a good fit. However he wants to tell the crew, is fine with the captain. He wants Chandler to have a good feeling. It just didn’t work out. After he leaves, Kate says he looked relieved. In his interview, Chandler confirms that he was relieved. He did what he could, and it wasn’t working. Captain Lee tells Kate the color came back to Chandler’s face. He thinks Chandler was overwhelmed.

Chandler tells the deckhands that the boat isn’t for everyone, and it’s not for him. He’s leaving today, and he’s relived. Ross is shocked. Rhylee says she’s sorry to see him go, and sorry they didn’t connect better. In her interview, she says she’s glad to see him go. Kate tells Caroline that Chandler made the decision. It was the right call, but they’ll miss him. Caroline is bummed. She didn’t see it coming. That’s because she’s too busy being bummed all the time.

Chandler packs. Adrian says, sorry to hear it. Caroline says, the whole situation in general sucks. Chandler says goodbye to everyone. In his interview, he says one thing he learned is that he’s only as strong as his team’s weakest link. Proving once again that he can’t take responsibility, and will always make excuses. He says he’ll always work on the sea, and he’s leaving with his head held high.

Kate marvels at how Caroline’s foot is almost normal size, but now she has a sinus infection, and needs antibiotics. In her interview, Kate says, here we go again. She’s tired of excuses, tired of pulling Caroline’s weight, tired of hearing about Caroline’s problems, and just plain tired.

Ross tells Rhylee they’ll be fine. In her interview, Rhylee says when you’re a man down, there should be equal share of the workload. She’s ready for more responsibility. Captain Lee calls Ross to the wheelhouse. In his interview, the captain says that people want to please Ross. He commands that kind of respect. He tells Ross they’re without a bosun, and asks if he feels comfortable stepping into that position. They probably won’t get another deckhand until after the next charter. In his interview, Ross says this wasn’t how he wanted to get there, but he’s ready for the challenge. The captain warns Ross that he’s not big on babysitting. Captain Lee calls Rhylee and Ashton in, and tells them about Ross’s new position. Ashton thinks he’ll do great. In Ashton’s interview, he says that Ross has natural leadership ability. He’s still concerned about the next charter though, since they need four deckhands. Rhylee says he’s a good man for the job. The captain tells Ross to do him proud.

The boat gets tidied. Caroline gets her antibiotics, and goes back to laundry. Kate sees the ice cream out, and asks who’s having it. It’s Caroline, and Kate tells her, after work. See how it worked for Chandler. Caroline thinks Kate has been covertly abusing her all season. Captain Lee makes a phone call to get a new deckhand.

In Caroline’s interview, she says Ashton has become her confidant. He’s done nothing to her; they’re pals. He’s sharp, observant, and a sweetheart. She tells him that she can’t win. If she’s bummed, she’s told to suck it up or go home by bi-polar bitch Kate. She has to take the abuse or leave. They keep telling her that she’s the best, but behind her back, they’re calling her nuts, and saying she can’t do the job. She tells Ashton it’s not a rank thing, but a respect thing. She’s been unhappy the entire season. Ashton says she needs to make her own changes, and make peace with it. Thanks, Dr. Phil.

The crew gets ready to go out. Caroline isn’t going, but wants a chat with everyone before they go. She’s giving her two days’ notice. Kate is like, okay… and Caroline calls Kate a bitch. I dunno. It’s pretty bitchy to give two days’ notice just before a charter, and just before the crew’s one night off.  There’s a lot she wants to say, but the crux of the issue is that she was scapegoated by those two, indicating Kate and Josiah. They should show her more respect. She tells Kate that she’s sorry she’s boring her. Kate says they’ll get through it. Caroline says she’s not that person who will eat sh*t with a knife and fork, and smile. She’s going to be true to herself <gag!>, and leave. Kate says she’s confused. Either Caroline was fake earlier – we see a clip of her telling Kate and Josiah how they’re the best – or she’s hot and cold. She’s sorry Caroline didn’t enjoy her time there, and thanks her for the two days. In Kate’s interview, she says, this is shots fired. Caroline blaming them for her embarrassing spectacle has unleashed her anger.  In her interview, Rhylee says she and Caroline are in the same position – low man on the totem pole. If you don’t have the right personality to fight back, you quit. Kate says after Caroline’s dramatic exit, she wants everyone’s passports. No one is allowed to leave before the next charter. In Josiah’s interview, he says, out of nowhere, they’re two men down. It’s nuts. They sing on the taxi going to the restaurant. Caroline feeds the stray dogs hanging out on the dock.

Ashton dances with a large number of women, figuring the law of averages says he’ll eventually score. Rhylee tells a guy not to grab her ass. Ashton brings along a girl in the taxi back. In her interview, Kate says anyone coming back to the yacht is a hooker. In the taxi, Rhylee asks the girl’s name, and she says, Vahine. Rhylee tries to introduce herself, and the girl thinks Rhylee is mispronouncing her name. Kate wants quiet, but Rhylee isn’t shutting up just because Kate told her to. Ashton is sitting behind her, and wants her to get out, so he an get out. He pushes the seat forward, and she shoves it back. Adrian is a big baby, and says it feels like she’ll attack him physically, and it’s not cool. Kate says Rhylee is a wild animal. On the boat, Rhylee is sick of these effing people. She tells Caroline that she gets it. She’s at her breaking point. Ashton and Vahine do the nasty in a car (?). Ross doesn’t care, as long as Ashton is on deck by eight.

Captain Lee has an errand to run. Ross goes over what he, Ashton, and Rhylee will be doing. In Ross’s interview, he says Chandler had a great work ethic, but lacked communication skills. He doesn’t want to make those same mistakes. Caroline is still in bed, and Josiah asks if she’s coming to work. She says, no. She changed her mind. He says she can’t change her mind. In her interview, she says all night she was having nightmares about Josiah and Kate. She doesn’t even want to work with them for two more days. He can go screw himself. She asks him to leave her cabin. Josiah says she put them in a really good position.

Kate asks, what’s going on? and Josiah explains how he went to Caroline’s cabin, and she’s not coming to work. She gave her two-day notice, now she’s saying she’s not working. He hopes she’s packed. Kate says she’s not a guest, and not being paid to sleep. She doesn’t know what else she could have done. She was sympathetic when Caroline’s mother was sick, when her foot was injured, and when she got a sinus infection. This is adding insult to injury.

They both go to Caroline’s cabin, but she’s locked herself in. Kate asks, who gave this nutcase a lock? Kate says they need her off the boat in one hour. Is she leaving? She can’t have much to pack. Kate says, this is an eviction. Work or leave. In her interview, Caroline says she wants to talk to Captain Lee before she goes – just out of respect. She also wants him to see the state they’ve put her in. Kate tells Caroline to be prepared to have her bags checked. Kate’s glad she’s leaving. Kate and Josiah put on loud music outside of Caroline’s door, and run. Ross is like, wtf? Adrian doesn’t agree with scaring people. It’s not cool. Ashton calls them instigators, and Josiah says they just need to get her off the boat.

Ross goes into Caroline’s cabin. Caroline tells him that Josiah asked if she was working. She didn’t want to discuss it with him, and when Kate came back, she locked the door, and Kate demanded she be off the boat in an hour. Hmm… that’s leaving out just a little bit. She starts crying, and Ross calls Kate and Josiah immature. In his interview, Ross says he has no room for this. Caroline tells him that she’s just rattled. He leaves, and she cries some more.

The captain is back on the boat. Kate asks if they can remove Caroline as soon as possible. Captain Lee calls Caroline to the wheelhouse. She tells him she gave her two days’ notice, and Kate and Josiah were banging on her door because she’d locked it, saying who gave this crazy girl a lock? Skipping a whole lot now. In his interview, Captain Lee wonders how things can go that south that quick. Caroline thinks it’s best she leave, and tells him it’s been a privilege to work under him. She’s sorry to let him down. The captain says it’s unfortunate how it turned out, but gets that she has to do what’s good for her. She asks for a hug. In her interview, Caroline says she would have liked some type of acknowledgement that this isn’t okay. She’s disappointed that no one is bothered by this behavior except her. In Captain Lee’s interview, he says if Caroline had come to him earlier, he might have done something, but suddenly, they’re down two out of eight. He’s going to discuss it with Kate, but they have the charter. He wants to get to the bottom of it.

Caroline says this has taught her that sometimes people don’t like you, or have it out for you, and you need to know when to leave. She feels sorry for Josiah and Kate, and thinks Kate is a bad person. She finally leaves, flipping a final bird as she walks down the dock. Okay, here’s what I think. Obviously, Caroline has a couple of disorders, but what she wants is attention, whether deserving of it or not. She mistook her job for something personal – which I can understand, since she lives with her co-workers – and got angry when she wasn’t given the attention one might get from family and friends. Although it’s possible she doesn’t have many friends, since I have the feeling that tragedy follows her, whether a random luck of the draw, self-inflicted, or perceived. Kate said it well on Watch What Happens Live, it’s not a corporate retreat for morale building. It’s. A. Job.

In the crew mess, Ross says they can handle it. Adrian thinks Rhylee is crazy. She’s aggressive, and he felt threatened. We flash back to them on the bus. He doesn’t want her to talk to him ever again. In his interview, he says that when he lived in Paris, there were people who treated him poorly. He cut toxic people out of his life after that. He only wants people who lift him up to be around him.

Captain Lee gives Ross his new stripes, saying, if he’s going to be bosun, he might as well look like one. The new charter guests Mario and Ann Marie run a real estate management firm and a yacht charter business. They enjoy the finer things in life, and expect only the best. Shannon, a friend of the captain’s who’s in yacht sales and charters, will also be coming, along with some others. They want a scrumptious tasting, a picnic be a waterfall, and all the toys. Kate says it sounds like a nightmare charter when they’re short staffed. In his interview, the captain says having yacht people come on board could be a catastrophe when they’re down two men. The pucker factor is in overdrive. Kate hopes it’s a gentle reminder for the crew to do team work, and sets the tone for the rest of the season. Captain Lee likes it.

Josiah and Kate organize the laundry. In Kate’s interview, she says the entire crew knows they’re short staffed. She hopes it makes them more motivated to help out.

The next morning, Josiah asks if the charter is over yet. Kate asks if the season is over yet.

Ross goes over what Ashton and Rhylee need to do. He thinks they’ll be all right. Kate and Josiah are still cleaning. Ross doesn’t know what the incident between Rhylee and Adrian was, but Adrian wants to be left alone. Rhylee says if he doesn’t want talk to her about it, fine. In her interview, she says if you don’t want to talk about it, don’t be talking about it. The captain calls Kate to the wheelhouse. He tells her, when Caroline left, she raised allegations that were serious. Kate doesn’t know what Caroline told him, but there’s not much truth in anything she says. Captain Lee says she had a script written down, and painted an ugly picture. He felt like he got hit in the head with a hammer. Maybe she can enlighten him. Kate says, when she quit the boat mid-season, and disrespected the people who picked up the slack when she was injured, and have been nice to her, it’s time to go. It’s not a hostel. In the captain’s interview, he says when you know someone as long as he and Kate have known each other, there are times that trust will be tested. We flash back to the time Kate folded a blanket into a d*ck rocketship.  The captain says, it’s disappointing. He doesn’t know if he’ll ever really get the details, and he can’t make a proper decision without the facts. It pisses him off to no end. They can’t afford to lose another person, and what’s the alternative? Sh*t service? He’s going into battle with an unloaded gun.

Ann Marie and Mario arrive. In her interview, Kate says they’re the worst possible guests right now. They have and know boats, and can make or break careers. Shannon tells the others to prepare for the  trip of a lifetime. In his interview, the captain says, sh*t. Kate does the tour, and the luggage is brought on the boat. The guests sit and have champagne, while Josiah schmoozes with them. In his interview, Ross says the deckhands have more responsibility, including new roles. Ashton is doing anchor checks, which he’s never done before. They’ll see how it goes. The yacht shoves off.

Rhylee cleans up the beach club. Kate gets drink orders. Anchor is dropped. The captain suggests lunch at two. It gives them time to schlep everything to the waterfall. In his interview, he says everyone has to step up, and take up the slack, including him. He thinks so far they’re doing well. Rhylee tells Ross that she wants to feel like she’s adding value to the crew. In Rhylee’s interview, she says she’s capable of doing manual labor, not just organizing, cleaning, and polishing. Being man down, it makes sense give her more responsibility. The guests use the slide. Kate takes the stuff to the waterfall.

Kate calls the waterfall breathtaking, and I agree. She says, moments like this that make yachting worth it – she he stands in the water for a moment – and then I hear my radio. Adrian packs up, and goes to the waterfall. When he gets there, he immediately starts griping. He thought they were set up already. He thought that’s why they came early. Any time they’ve done this before, it’s been set up already. I guess he forgot they’re down two people. In her interview, Kate asks, why is meditation guy the one having a temper tantrum? Kate tells him that Ross knows the situation. She’s sure he’s not rushing to get the guests there. Adrian realizes there’s no gas for grill, and radios Ross, who radios Rhylee. Ross tells the guests they have to pick up one more thing, and Mario says, not really prepared, are we? And so it begins…

In Captain Lee’s interview, he says they can’t have stakes like this with yacht people on board. Kate says all they can do is damage control and distraction; piña coladas. Ashton runs ahead with the gas for the grill. The guests are impressed with the set up. The table and chairs are in a shallow part of the water, with the chairs facing the waterfall. Josiah says he’s done a million excursions, and nothing compares to this waterfall. It’s like they’re in a Tahitian postcard. Mario says, going back home and not eating like this, will be disappointing.

Back at the yacht, Rhylee asks Ross if he left the ponchos and insect repellent she packed. He says he forgot. She’s sorry she said anything, and in her interview says she can’t win with these guys. Adrian leaves the picnic to a round of applause from the guests. The guests get in front of the waterfall, and Josiah takes pictures.

Ross thanks Rhylee for cleaning up, and Ross tells her to take a break. She feels like it doesn’t matter what she says or does. She’s doing what they want, putting her head down, and being a day worker. In his interview, Ross says that Rhylee immediately goes to another level, and makes you feel the need to go there too. He wants her to feel like part of the team, but she makes it difficult. He tells her that he doesn’t need any feedback or editing, and she tells him then don’t ask like he just did. He tells her, lose the attitude or ship out.

Next time, a new stew arrives, Kate says welcome to the sh*t show; get ready, the crew spends the day at a resort, and an accident happens.

🙇 Because It Is…

I like this band, and I’m tired.
