We begin tonight’s episode with Wes choosing Malia to be lead deckhand. I really don’t see the point of this other than to give the deck crew the fresh storyline of “Malia is head deck hand because Wes has a crush on her.” But I suppose it is a better storyline than adding onions to the guests food for having the never to dislike onions. Wes tells Malia first and will tell the boys tomorrow. This will not go over well.
The weather is kicking up on the coast of Croatia, so dinner will be indoors. Captain Sandy realizes that the anchor is dragging because of the high winds. The winds are too strong for the anchors so the boat has to go back to port.
Dinner service seemed to go off without a hitch, but the yacht broker gave some feedback to Captain Sandy. Oh she did agree that dinner service was fantastic. However, there was a towel left behind from a previous guest in the Master bath. That’s it? Sound like a great review to me. And they love Adam who came out in chef whites instead of his usual grunge to greet the dinner guests.
The next morning the weather is windy and 57 degrees. Captain Sandy says they have to stay in port due to the winds. This really sucks for the guests who will receive not partial refund for the lost time at sea. One of the guests decides just to fly home.
When Wes tells the guys Malia is lead deckhand, the pretend to take it well. Bobby says that he thought he actually was lead deckhand, because he is the only one with experience.
The walking tour of Split was kind of a bust. The guests didn’t seem interested in the history of the town. I could have listened to it all day. Instead they opt to lay face down looking at the floor of the boat getting massages. What a waste of time. I did get a massage in Romania once, but it was just out of curiosity of how it would go. Plus I changed my itinerary and just stayed in Brasov for most of my trip because the train ride with the gypsies didn’t live up to my romantic notions and it was nearly impossible to figure out what the stops were.
Malia stupidly tells Bugsy and Lauren about kissing Wes on the bridge during anchor watch. Lauren thinks Malia’s promotion is ridiculous and compare it to her making out with Captain Sandy and being promoted to Chief Stew. Lauren goes straight to Hannah with the gossip. Then she tattles to Bobby, who is her mortal enemy. I see you Lauren! Sidenote, Lauren and Bobby got into it on Twitter recently and Bugsy and a couple others vouched for Bobby’s fine character. Bobby tells Max about the makeout session between Wes and Malia.
Adam has finally decided to showcase Croatian food for the last dinner. Hannah has hired a really cool group of male a Capella singers to serenade the guests. They are really trying to pull out all the stops. The guests absolutely loved it all.
Bobby and Max confront Wes about the shady looking promotion. Bobby says it is utter bullshit, unprofessional and bullshit. I don’t think any of these people care about being lead deckhand. So now everyone knows except Adam.
The next morning, Bobby wakes up angry and bitches to Max. Malia overhears and reminds us three or for times how attractive (and cute!) she is and that is the reason the guys are angry that she got the meaningless title. This is such a ridiculous storyline about nothing. Wes tells the guys to stop talking about it. The decision has been made. They need to either deal with it or leave.
Side note: Andy just did a promo for tonight’s WWHL and he is wearing the same outfit right down to the tie that he wore on last night’s show. Could he not have at least changed the tie? That bright orange striped tie is something that stands out.
Lauren fills Adam in on the makeout session. She sure is carrying a lot of bones now that she has gotten out of the ironing room for ten minutes. Lauren makes it seem like they have been making out for weeks. Then she admits she has no idea what she is talking about.
The guests were super understanding about the weather problem. The tip was only $12,000 though.
While the ship cruises to Dubrovnik, Adam confronts Malia and Wes. He plans to tell Wes about their relationship prior to the show. First Adam tells Hannah and Bugsy about their relationship. He has texts from Malia telling Adam that she is not interested in Wes and wants to spend their last night in Croatia together.
The crew has a day of shore leave in Dubrovnik. Adam, Bobby and Wes go to a pub to get wasted. Wes hangs with the girls first but eventually shows up where the guys are. He senses the hostility and goes to the bathroom to regroup before sitting down. He has a couple drinks with the already wasted guys. They are so drunk they are running into vehicles and being ridiculous. Drunk Bobby picks up Malia to forces him to put her down by giving him a giant wedgie. Then Wes and Adam start to get into a fist fight.
To be continued….
I can’t decide if Malia is playing this show Housewives-style by trying to amp up the drama. Or if she is simply manipulative and self-centered, basking in the oomph she feels when people pay attention to her. Either way, I doubt her reputation as a nice person could ever be resuscitated or established.
It can’t be both? Cuz it seems like “both” to me.
When Hannah and Bobby were in WWHL they said she got the most action of anyone this season. Kind of sad that whether she earned her position or not no one will ever know for sure because of that cloud over it. Could it be we were all reading Adam as creepy and wrong judging by the texts he revealed this week??
No, Adam is still a douche bag, but Malia is a player. She loves the attention.
Samantha, the girl who left was one of the brokers from Million Dollar Listing Miami.
Thank you!! I kept thinking she looked familiar, but I couldn’t place her.
Ah, so this charter was another one thrown together by production. That explains why the people don’t seem to know each other.
Yes – she was insufferable on MDLM as well.
How she thinks it was unprofessional of Captain Sandy to not risk their safety is beyond me.
She was instantly recognizable because of her stank attitude. I noticed that earlier is season on NY, Tinsley’s realtor showing her and her mom apartments was Chris from MDL Miami. They weren’t likeabke on their own show and they’re not likeable on this one!
Someone else on another site thought that was her. I forgot all about MDL-Miami. What better things to do did she have than hang on a beautiful yacht?
I really think Bobby should have been given the lead deck hand job.
Inadvertant pun?
Lol. Thanks for the ?
GOOD ONE!!! I didn’t even notice it. That is so like me!
My auto correct automatically separated the word deck hand !
I don’t think Bobby deserves a hand job.
I agree.
When Malia crosses the line and made out with her boss, she lost any right to protest that a young pretty girl can get a promotion on the merit of her work. And Wes should have known, Even if he thought she was best – he and she forfeited her promotion by flirting and making out. Malia misled Adam and made him look like a creep.
I agree, all the texts he has nail her as a user.
ophs! just wrote almost exactly the same thing but got distracted and didn’t post it. anyway, ditto!
Well, Adam is a creep. But Malia is also an opportunist who uses sex for acquiring things, and Wes is as unprofessional as Hannah was. Everyone takes an L here.
Lauren was on fire this week! I feel like her producer decided it was time to release the gossip from the laundry room.
About Malia… I’m all for a girl’s right to play the field but #stop. Didn’t she say she dated the captain on her last boat? So she should know: you get cozy with the boss, you don’t get to complain when people assume you are promoted because you’re getting cozy with the boss. No one cares if you deserve it! That’s why you don’t put yourself into that situation. Good grief!
Max not being able to chug anything is adorable!
PS. I stand by Adam being an ass. I’m pretty sure he’s an ass regardless of whether he’s getting played by a “cute female deckhand”.
I can’t help but think if Kate was there they would have all been doing a scavenger hunt or having a costume party. I think I actually miss her!
I was most turned off by Lauren, the self-proclaimed “people pleaser.” She was all but drooling as she carried the story and made it worse to everyone she knew would punish sweet Wes for it. It reminded me of an old Twilight Zone where the aliens were assumed to be good because they wrote a book called, “Serving Man.” In the end they discovered it meant ‘serving them up’ as food.
I loved that episode, “its a cookbook, don’t get on-board, it’s a cookbook!”
I love that episode, “its a cookbook, don’t get on-board, it’s a cookbook!”
Sorry for the accidental double post
Found myself sorta rooting for Bobby last night. I wondered “who’s that cute man tying knots quietly on the stairs”, darn, it was Bobby. When Wes tried to shut Bobby down and said “end of discussion or you’re out of here”, I was hoping Bobby would shoot back with “yes, let’s explain to the Captain exactly why I’m complaining about this promotion”. That would have put Wes straight that you can’t make-out with someone underneath you and not have it taint your promotion choices.
Poor Malia. Now everyone knows her MO. Its so hard isn’t it luv?
Shame it wasn’t an atomic wedgie it would have helped Bobby find his true voice. Castrati.
If she is playing this part for the show she will regret it later in her life well maybe, these young folks today are a new breed. Not only is it making her look very stupid although she is screaming “I’ve been honest with both” it is much more risky. What about the maybe one of them has mental issues and possibly suicidal hmmmm and might take some lives ,we all know that happens a lot nowadays. Is the money or so-called fame or her “HONESTY” going to be worth it. Think young people think about others and step outside your ME BOXES!!!!!!!
Malia is totally disgusting. She brings new meaning to manipulative. She would play anyone to get ahead. And news flash to Malia, you have a much higher opinion of yourself than the rest of the world. As for the yacht broker; is being classless and clueless a requirement for a broker. It is in her case. Disgusting attitude, and when Hannah served the Watermelon desert she rudely asked is it out of a box or homemade Hannah replied its out of a Watermelon which was perfect & the classless broker missed the snark. There needs to be a Yacht Broker wall of shame blog.
While I think Malia is a TOTAL player and knew exactly what she was doing, I still get a creepy vibe from Adam….as in stalkerish. He has some CRAZY damn eyes to boot! I also can’t help but think that Adam gave 100% with his cooking this charter when it should be expected EVERY charter??? For what the guests are paying the captain shouldn’t have to tell him to put on his chef coat or to take his menu up a notch!
