Below Deck Reunion Part 2 Recap: We’re Not In The Laundry Room Anymore!

Below Deck Reunion

 

It’s time to put a fork in this season of Below Deck. Quite frankly, I’m not sure I can stand one more comment section with the Kate apologists. I often wonder if they even watched the show, especially the previous season. Ben said it best. Kate always needs a target for her anger. This season she had two.  On the bright side, Andy is clearly supporting Rocky and that resting bitch face on the opposing couch is boiling under her skin about it. That is a thing of glory. So let’s just get going.

So we are back to the fire incident where Rocky has just suggested that Kate drinks on the job. Kate is trying to tell the fire story to Andy but she is quite agitated.  Andy asks Amy point blank if she had seen Kate drink on charter. Instead of saying “no” Amy deflects and says she thinks pointing fingers about who was drinking is petty and pointless.  So that is a yes.

For a look back at all of Below Deck this season, click here!

Finally, some facetime for Captain Lee. They play his Captain Lee, stud of the sea commercial. He says his wife gets a lot of mileage out of it. Andy says he must be very popular in the yachting community and Amy says, “yes he is.” Kate chimes in to say that people in traffic when he is driving stop to take his picture.  It sounds like she is speaking from personal experience and then she says she “sees it on Twitter all the time.”  They talk about all of Captain Lee’s quirky sayings.  Andy sets up a confrontation between Rocky and Captain Lee. Below Deck reunion 2

Finally, Connie gets some attention from Andy. Discussion moves toward her love of nudity. Not much to say about that. Both her father and her grandma died when she was out working on boats. I had forgotten that Connie had a little thing for Emile. She denies it. Connie says she liked Rocky when they were one on one but when the cameras were on, Rocky was a theatrical lunatic.  Yes, Connie. She’s an actress. Rocky basically admits that the production crew told her she had to take her mike off before her on camera swan dive.  Which makes Captain Lee going after her so harshly for a scene planned by production now seem a bit excessive. Captain Lee is genuinely pissed at Rocky.  Rocky apologizes to Amy and Kate for not being an experienced stew. Kate and Amy both say that they accept her apology and Rocky and Kate hug. Really? Kate offers to give Rocky her stew checklist.  Is this hope for a Rocky to return? Nah. Not even going to hope.

ALREADY NOSTALGIC FOR BELOW DECK? GO HERE!

Ben joins the crew on the set.  Ben says with regard to Leon, he thinks that a yacht chef should follow the passenger’s preference list.  He also said the kitchen would have been shut down if it had been inspected when Leon is in charge. Ben and Rocky like each other.  Andy asks why Kate bitched a Ben just as much as she did Leon? Kate says Ben started it. Ben says that it’s the nature of the two positions for them to fight.  Andy asks about their relationship. It was a one night stand.

Dave comes out and everyone loves him.

Andy goes back to the sex in the laundry room. Eddie admits he sent the first text but he blames Rocky enticed him first. Eddie is really trying to minimize his role. Rocky says that friends with benefits usually treat each other as friends.

Next we talk about why Rocky felt the need to confess to Emile. It seems kind of mean. Rocky seems unaware that Emile had feelings for her. Kate and Amy point out that it was a cruel thing to do. I hate agreeing with Kate. Rocky claims she really had feeling for Eddie.  Connie says that Eddie never had a kind word to say about Rocky so she was floored to hear they had been screwing on the boat.

Eddie says that after she literally jumped ship he was done with her.  Then Rocky drops the bomb that they have screwed two more times since the show. The night after filming he came to her hotel room and knocked on the door and said “we’re not in the laundry room anymore.” And again when they filmed pick up lines.  Eddie completely denies it but he is sweating bullets and completely lying. Then they play a montage of Eddie lying on the boat. Eddie’s apology is sort of creepy and unbelievable.  Captain Lee gives his “You’ve disappointed me, son” speech to Eddie.  Kate says after she watched the final episode she felt bad for Rocky. A viewer wants to know why Rocky is blamed for Emile following her around like a puppy dog, Don jumping into the water with her and Eddie fucking her in the laundry room?  Those were their choices!  Rocky says it is very painful to find out how little Eddie thought of her.  His girlfriend wasn’t the only one who got hurt.

Andy, continues quarterbacking Team Rocky saying everyone keeps blaming her but Eddie might be a better target.  This non-misogynist position is very rare for Andy. He dating her father or something?

During the wrap up, we find out that Kate admits she can’t get work isn’t a yachtie anymore and has moved on to waitress in the sky. She want’s to work for Virgin Galactic when space trips begin. Those jokes write themselves.  Rocky says that she is a yachtie both as a stew and a cook. This is visibly painful on Kate’s face. Dave says he is done with yachting.

Ben is going to be the chef on Below Deck: Mediterranean ! The Americans would struggle with work visas so the rest of the crew will be foreigners.  It looks FANTASTIC! Ben cries and hooks up and someone gets CPR and medics called.

        Rocky is dumb, if this is acting a part or not. Saying she had feelings for Eddie was trying to garner sympathy but no one bought it. If she is stewing again probably one of those day cruises like we saw on RHOA/Lake Lanier the other night. Looking forward to Below Deck Med.

      Pretty sure those two promised to keep their hookups secret–on film! So Rocky should’ve kept her mouth shut. Eddie cheating is a separate issue.

      >>>But YES, I realize it’s all an act, but reality TV is not fun to watch when you insert REAL reality into it. So don’t hop on me for that. I know Ricky just wants to be famous. Got it.<<<

        I agree with you Lisa, at least I think something happened between them after the show if not full coitus. But what little I know about body language has been chucked out the window with Rocky’s eye rolls, since that can sometimes be a “tell” in trying to access the memory banks to remember the made up story.

    The second part of the reunion was kind of perfect. Andy really amazed me in sticking up for Rocky. I read it the same as you, Tamara. Yes, the chief stew drinks on the job, no one would deny it, and Eddie screwed Rocky after the season wrapped. He had the same guilty face as when he lied about banging her in the laundry.

    I noticed Eddie made not even a slight apology to Rocky, only said he was disappointed in himself. Why didn’t the captian spout off to Eddie the speech he gave to Rocky about everyone else apologizes and own up. Jerks! Rocky apologised to her crewmates and even Eddie when he so obviously refused to give her one when he had the perfect opportunity. He is of very low character. I bet his girlfriend doesn’t trust him to be on charters is why he is on tugs.

      riri, I agree, and am surprised the captain, of all people, did not berate Eddie for forcing his way into Rocky’s locked room when Eddie was finally exposed and now wanted to talk to her. Did Andy bring that up? I don’t remember. I found that behavior to be the most disturbing of Eddie’s “misdeeds” so to speak. I’m not defending crazy lazy Rocky, but that really was wrong of Eddie.

I will admit Kate is clever and funny but Rocky trumped her in the entertainment factor. I hope they bring them both back next season.

    Really had to laugh at Connie’s “I couldn’t believe Eddie went for the cuckoo.” Umm – particularly, when guys think they can get away with it or haven’t had some in a while, they’ll jump like a dog for a bone for the cuckoos. They think that’s the best sex. No surprise that Andy stuck up for Rocky – he always does for the ones who bring the most drama. He did for Brandi G too. But, the reason the group glossed over Kate’s drinking on the job (that was clear since even Kate couldn’t give a straight – no she wasn’t drinking) and piled on Rocky is simply b/c Kate did her job and worked hard. Rocky shirked her job most of the time, caused more work for the rest of the crew (by jumping over board, etc.) and complained about virtually everything. That will make you a pariah quickly in any close-quarters work environment. (WRT taking off all her clothes – she may have had to ditch the mike b/c production told her – but she didn’t have to jump off ship in the first place.)

    I wonder what it is about this show inparticular that draws out the dimmer bulbs from their dark corners into the light; sputtering opinions lacking basic observational skills, void of intuition. The comments I’m seeing everywhere on social media are asanine. Maybe its the shiny, blue water going up and down, up and down. Im reminded of the movie “Stepbrothers” with Wil Ferrell. Two half-wits drawn to aquatics. I can hear them half-rapping, half-chanting now. “We love Kate! Her resting bitch face is a customer service dream! Boats n hos, boats n hos!! Prestige Worldwide! Boats n hos, boats n hos..”

    I love this show but so glad the rocky horror show is over. Kate showed great restraint as her superior on the boat and I would have loved to see her punch rocky in the face during the reunion. If Rocky is an actress she is a bad one. I also still like Eddie and if rocky is too stupid to see she was just a piece of ass to him that’s on her, he never made her any promises and she was taking advantage of the fact he was fighting with his gf

      I am sick of watching Rocky pout and point fingers. She ruined my damn show all season. There is no way in hell she could be a paid actress outside of this show. I think Eddie seemed upset all season as he was not as funny or entertaining as the past seasons. I assume he had some serious problems at home before the show started and he never really got into it this season. I was surprised when he said at the end of the Reunion that he would not be yachting again.

        Agree JustSaying & cavex2, Rocky was difficult to watch all season. I had to mute her dolphin cackles they were so annoying – can’t imagine what it was like to LIVE & WORK next to her for 5-6 weeks! She’s trying desperately to be a breakout reality star, but it hasn’t worked yet. She was on Wipeout & Frankenfood (somewhere around 2012 I think), under Raquel Bartlow. Guess she changed her last name to get on Below Deck because she was embarrassed. Her Linked-In profile shows quite an erratic resume, which would make most employers (even reality show producers) think twice.

    I wondered what was happening with Chef Ben. I used to follow him on Twitter and when they were in the negotiation stage for the season we just watched, he was tweeting about Bravo not meeting his negotiating demands. I just assumed that it was a money issue, but I guess he was busy in the Mediterranean.

    Chef Leon made me laugh with his haughty mannerisms and shitty attitude. I would have loved to see him mixing it up at the reunion but not showing up kind of gives him the last laugh.

    I’m ready to not hear from Rocky again, ever.

    Rocky was the only one that gave a truly believable apology for her behavior when it was bad and even apologized for things that were not really her fault. On another note you can’t help if your a nutball which she really is but in a very endearing way. She was not cruel or mean to anyone. She didn’t handle the Emile situation very well but she did make amends with him. Capt. Lee acted like a total jerk to her. Nothing said to his chef stew though that was obviously drinking on the job. Great professionalism Kate.

      honestly I think that rocky’s apologie was bull because she would redo it. She was lazy which doesn’t help when staff have to take up your work as well and then you don’t listen when they try to help you as well as living with those people.

      Captain lee was mostly mad at her for her decisions that affected the way the work got done. Kate might have drunk on the job which is BAD but the fact she was still able to do it and that he didn’t see it he probably didn’t make a comment.

      You say it’s unproffessional but there has been people who constantly get drunk and then get fired for it. Just the fact that she drank isn’t enough and it’s crazy how you put that as worst that rocky’s attitude.

    The reunion proved that Eddie is a dirtbag. Ben sounds like Austin Powers. Kate proves that if you keep making thoses faces your face will freeze like that. Rocky at least admitted she was out for all the attention she could get. I want to see her on Chopped.

    Just a thought… When Amy goes and tells Eddy that Rocky is saying they hooked up? You KNOW production prodded her to do that…it just doesn’t seem in her character to do that. Either that or she was feeling she needed more screen time not sure if she had enough exciting $hit to make it to final edit?
