Below Deck Mediterranean: Swing Shift

July 25, 2017 by tamaratattles 45 Comments

We left off last week during a physical confrontation between Wes and Adam while the crew was on shore leave in Croatia. Adam gave Wes a brutal wedgie, then Adam was being a dick to Wes taking photos. Wes knocked Adam’s camera out of his hands and Adam gave Wes a nice hard shove to the back of his head. Hannah took Wes and Bugsy took Adam and the two were separated.

Once everyone is back on the boat, Malia and Wes share a long hug. Then all the guys including Max, tell Malia that all of the unrest on the boat is her fault for stringing two guys along all charter season. I have never seen Max lose his cool before ever. The entire crew is over the Malia drama.

Adam wants to show Wes the text messages that he exchanged with Malia. 

The next charter is on short one nighter with people from Houston. They have flown all the way from Texas to Croatia, for one night on a yacht and they are requesting a Texas themed black tie dinner with yellow roses. What is WRONG with American travelers? 

Even Captain Sandy is unhappy with Malia who failed to communicate with the captain on her first charter as lead deckhand.

For some reason, Hannah asks Bobby and Malia to unpack the guests’ luggage in the master suite. This is not normal behavior, so it’s clearly a production set up. What is Hannah doing exactly? It seems Lauren and Bugsy would like to know as well.  Bugsy sends Lauren to take over for Bobby and Malia who have no idea how to unpack bags.

Adam apologizes to Wes. It seemed fairly sincere to me, but Wes wasn’t buying it.

I am pausing during the dinner to look up the salad recipe. It looks like it is an Israeli thing. Shannon Beador’s trainer has scared into getting back to my clean eating. I’ve been off the healthy train for a while and the crazy is steadily increasing. The ghetto Publix space seems to have been taken over by one of those Korean International Markets so I am headed there tomorrow to buy strange fruits and veggies that I have no idea what to do with.  Adam’s dinner was sensational.

The crew has not yet figured out this is a swingers cruise.  But when they all convene in one room in the wee hours of the morning, Max figures it out.

The next morning when they dock, Captain Sandy has Bobby take over for Malia.  Houston pulls out a Texas sized envelope with the tip. I can tell already that it is probably the biggest tip of the season and only one night of work. Yep, they got $1,360 each for that one night charter. Because everything’s bigger in Texas.

There is only one charter left! I will miss this show.

Bobby ignores what Malia tells him to do. They have a huge blowout. Malia tells Bobby he can’t become a leader by being a dick. This is true. But apparently you can be a lead deckhand by sucking some dick.

The crew goes out for drinks. After Hannah and Adam had a heart to heart about his situation with Malia, Hannah decided he might not be the horrible guy she thought he was. So they got along very well on the one day charter. On the shore, Hannah and Adam were drinking a close talking and Bugsy, who has been Adam’s ally all season seemed jealous. But not as jealous as Malia. Wes seems to have found someone to hook up with as well. Where did she come from? Malia is dumbfounded that she is sitting there with no one to talk to except Bugsy.

Hannah lays a big smooch on Adam. She’s really drunk. Adam offers to walk Hannah back to the boat. Will they hook up?

Next Week: Bugsy and Lauren are sick of Hannah not doing any work. And Adam shows Wes the texts that Malia sent him the night they made out on anchor watch.

    Malia is a piece of work. It’s not good for her career being known as the crew pass around. Last year I mostly liked Hannah, but this year I haven’t seen her do much of anything. I wonder if anyone is going home? It seems late in the season for that. However, she could be demoted. I love everything about Wiz. ?

    Shannon’s trainer scared me also. I’m at a loss as to what to eat given that my husband is a meat and potatoes guy.

    Malia rubs me the wrong way. She really did scree with boys guys. Just own it and don’t whine when neither of them want to fall for your tricks again.

      When I fall back into the non organic diet the crazy keeps me from wanting to cook. And I like to cook.

      But my plan for tomorrow which is now today is to make some fabulous salads. And watermelon drinks. It’s HOT.

      I JUST HATE CHOPPING SHIT. It gives me anxiety. I do not enjoy the sous chef stuff. When I win the mega millions, my first employee will be a sous chef. My second will be a guy who lives behind the house and is on call 24/7 to be my driver.

          I just watched it again… Too close to call… Max definitely puckered up his lips and she pulled his collar and then leaned in and kissed him maybe the cheek but definitely close to his lips… Odd scene.

      I also enjoyed Max laying waste to Malia. It was deserved and way past due. It was the highlight of
      the show. I thought about not watching it has become so soap opera on a boat :-((. Im also sick of Bugsy’s whining about what a great first stew she is and then there is the 2 faced Lauren turn around. Lauren gives me the creeps so her & Bugsy should be very happy together. I also liked Hannah last yr but she really just isnt that involved this year and does little or no work at all. I feel sorry for Capt. Sandy with this crew. She is no nonsense and that is all this crew has been about this season, but out of all of them I really detest Malia. She is a vapid Narcissistic person. I dont think she will be back. Perhaps she can hook up with that Idiot Danny on last season or a couple of seasons ago. they deserve each other. They could be their Narcissist selves together . I hope Malie does not come back or Bugsy or Lauren.

    Usually the girls who behave like Malia are never found out, and if someone tries to out them that person is seen as jealous or a loser. What Bobby should have said to Malia was you can certainly become a leader by sucking dick. That was my thought and you wrote it, that makes me happy. The primary couple didn’t seem a good fit, like they didn’t match each other and that kept throwing me. The buff guy was super annoying, like he wanted to be admired. He was gross. I do like that some of the Hannah and Adam drama has died down.

        Something in me aches for Bobby. He’s such a sensitive guy, it breaks my heart he seems so unlucky in love (at least on the show). After I saw him face-timing with his mother earlier in the season I began to see him differently. They were talking about a really bad breakup he’d gone through and my heart just broke for him. I do think he has great manners. He’s never one to swear and he’s so respectful of his co-workers. Always the first to smile, he’s a pleasant guy to be around and he is well-liked by nearly everyone. It’s a shame he seems a little goofy sometimes because he is a handsome man with a great physique too.

        IDK, maybe I’m feeling this way because my son is about the same age as Bobby and I would feel horrible if he was being treated like a Goober when all he was being was gentlemanly. Bobby would be a great catch for any one of these young ladies. Sadly, many gravitate to the bad boys like Adam. Le sigh. LOL

            I agree Bobby’s goofy side is very likable but when he switches into agro mode it’s not a good look. And at this point it’s not like it’s a one off- there’s a pattern. I think he got a little ahead of himself with this below deck gig and saw his future paved in stars. Hopefully he buckles down and focuses on the job not his future in the limelight.

            Personally what I enjoyed most about Below Deck was that it wasn’t tainted by reality tv tropes. It actually showed what it’s like working on a yacht, albeit with cameras, but now it’s starting to become any other reality show but at sea. I still enjoy the show but look at it differently. Hoping next season moves away from the desperate to be a reality star cast and onto people with actual experience in the yachting world.

    The only thing Malia is getting is a reputation and not a flattering one. Being a tramp only gets you so far, eventually you are going to have to prove you have some common sense. The good news is Wes seems to be coming out of her spell. Loved Max’s outburst. Malia didn’t like hearing the truth though. lol

    Keep wondering, what do Malia’s 4 or 5 brothers all think now? And what the heck was up with the camera crew parked right outside the guest doorways, waiting for them to trade bed-mates? The way the guests kept smiling at the camera it was like they were on a freaky game show.

    I’m going to miss this show too! I was shocked at the cozy developments between Hannah and Adam. I mean, I can see burying the hatchet and getting along–but they skipped right by “cordial colleagues” and even “normal friendship” and went right for “flirt buddies,” and it looks like more.

      Normally I would agree but she used the power of the pussy to be promoted and was also leading Adam on. That’s not ok. Lead all the guys on you want but don’t use the pussy to to further yourself, it is tacky.

    The fact about a lot of men is this: if Malia had chosen Adam..he would have rationalized anything she ever did..as long as he had her.
    But because she didnt..she was suddenly “disgusting”.
    Typical.

      I thought I was the only one who dislikes “Stud of the Sea” NOT. I cant stand him. Condescending, arrogant & just so not cool. Sandy does get involved with the crew and has a great attitude like the rest of them should have. Capt. Lee is a Jerk and i just dont like the guy so was glad to see others feel the same. So far on Below Deck she has shown more respect for the job and the way things are run than the rest. The guy last year on Below Deck Mediterranean just seemed lost at interacting with the crew or cameras. but he wasnt an arrogant soul and he put up with Danny Way too long. Danny should have been kicked off the boat after the first guests departed. I wish him well , I just dont think he liked being filmed on the show. He seemed uncomfortable with the cameras. Dont think I’ll be watching Below Deck Studley this year. He is just too nauseating and full of himself.

    Malia isn’t doing herself any favors by getting a reputation as someone who’s willing to use guys to further herself. If she truly wants to be Captain one day, she needs to act a lot more professionally and think of how she’s being perceived. A captain needs to have the respect of his/her crew and what Malia is doing won’t lead to that conclusion. She also needs to drop the whole “I’m being picked on because I’m so cute” scenario – yes, you’re cute but that’s not why the other crew members are so pissed off at you – it’s because you’re obviously more than willing to use your sexuality to further your career. You’re the one using your “cuteness” to benefit yourself, it’s not being used by others against you. It was hard to see her getting promoted to Lead Deckhand solely because of her manipulation of Wes. I hope Wes realizes really quickly that Malia isn’t what she seems – Adam’s emails and texts should accomplish that in a hurry.
