Once again, I slept through Below Deck Sailing Yacht recap time last night. But Banjo refused to let me sleep through American Idol or The Voice. My TV is on all the time and when two things are taping at once, the TV changes channels on its own and kind of wakes me up. Banjo insisted that I get up and sing to him. I’m telling you, the dog is addicted to singing competition shows. But, I am ready to see what happened to the naked fools we last saw preparing to drunken skinny dip in the dark.
Throuple Troubles
The fools are making so much noise that they have woken up the entire boat including Captain Glenn. Ut Oh. It looks like they are all just going to roll over and go back to sleep. And the throuple is going to have more shots a two a.m. with new charter guests coming in less than 12 hours. Alli and Sydney have a drunken hug over the whole Gary issue. Sydney goes in to try to wake up Gary for a booty call. He is not pleased. The throuple is hung over as hell and blaming each other for their misery. Sydney is a total clinger. She crawled into Gary’s bed while he was sleeping and he’s pissed. Somehow Alli thinks everything is Gary’s fault. It’s not.

Why does Daisy think she is Natasha’s boss? It is so irritating. Meanwhile, Alli is having some sort of emotional meltdown. Everyone is at each other’s throats. This is going to be a rough charter. At least Alli and Gary hug it out before the charter guests arrive. Then, Gary clears the air with Sydney. They may be able to get through this charter after all.
Not Eggactly…
This charter seems to be flying by with no major issues. It’s already dinner time. The guests are easygoing and happy with the food. The deckhands are actually helping out in the kitchen. I still can’t believe that the skinny dippers didn’t get called out by Captain Glenn. Jean Luc seems to have a crush on Daisy. They sneak in a secret make-out session. The next morning, Natasha doesn’t know how to make eggs? I don’t believe this. This has to be fake storyline. Daisy continues to bug Natasha.

And with that the episode is over. It was a cute little show, there just wasn’t a lot for me to comment on. I miss the land trips that they can’t take because of COVID. I would love to see more of Croatia.
Where do I begin? Natasha is just so wrong, the girl has got a problem. And Daisy is watching the tip money fly out the window into the depths of the Adriatic Sea. And I don’t buy the false narrative that in order to be a brilliant BD chef you must first and foremost be a total a**hole.
Thank you!
I cannot stand her!
I could never work with her.
I really feel bad for Daisy.
I agree Natasha is the issue. But these are grown women, sit down and come to a compromise for crying out loud. Natasha, look up breakfast styles for eggs and all American Breakfast…you know preference sheet.
Or maybe Daisy needs to communicate with Natasha differently. Natasha just got out of a relationship with a controlling husband and I can just bet Daisy is triggering her. I have learned that people who are creative tend to be absolute jerks while they are working and you just need to know when to tread lightly.
How is that Daisy’s problem?
I think she is fine.
She tries to tell her nicely, but Natasha just gets furious over everything.
She could have said to her that’s not over easy, but she didn’t because she knew it wouldn’t be appreciated and met with anger and denial.
Over eggs!
She does not want be told anything.
And if I were Daisy, I would not want to have to tell her anything.
I seriously don’t understand anyone defending Natasha. I’m sorry!
and I think Natasha folds like a cheap deck of cards under pressure.
And I think it is all fake to instigate all of this discussion about her. Basically she is getting a shit edit so we all have someone to hate.
Long time lurker minimal poster but I just had to come on here and say I agree with you. There seems to be something off with Natasha’s edit and I truly believe production is causing drama, like who orders 5 fried eggs? Something is weird and I feel for her. The only villains I am seeing are the charter guests. They have all been nightmares thus far.
Thank God I have an ally! My comments don’t seem to get what is happening. Production screws with the chefs every season!
Even when not under pressure!! Hee!
The orders were for some eggs over easy and some eggs scrambled. You can’t blame a bad edit on the behaviour of a person who can’t look at the order sheet and still be unaware that these must be two different things.
You can if it is scripted by production.
So let me say that the way both Allly & Sydney reacted to Gary is what gives women a bad name. Sydney is hopelessly needy, crawling into his bed uninvited, spinning yarns of love and family life in Florida. The girl has serious issues. Ally then proceeds to rips into Gary for taking Sydney to his bed, not bothering to listen to what he says. I’m no Gary fan but he was 100% here in both cases. And then Ally demanding an apology from JL for his reaction to her waking him up? Oh, these 2 are just delusion young girls.
Now for Natasha – she not only thinks she knows everything but also that Daisy knows absolutely nothing. I agree with Daisy that Natasha has this over bearing self confidence that she can’t seem to back up. And what chef worth anything doesn’t know how to fry a damn egg? Just where are these Michelin starred restaurants she supposedly worked at? She’s the worst kind of chef – she’s a snob.
I agree. Gary NEVER should slept with her as her boss. But, she is bunny boiler or as someone else said Jodi Arias of the Sailing World. Actually, can you imagine a male sliding into a woman’s bed like that? Syd, should be in trouble.
I guess I can have Ally a break because she’s going through a lot…but that was a very weird reaction considering she was encouraging Syd to do that very thing that she condemned Gary for the next day. And Gary for once… really was innocent in all this. Then Syd almost lied and said Gary invited her but she know Gary knew the events clearer than she did. That scene was shameful on both parts. I am glad JL and Gary stood up to them..Just embarrassing..And Natsha has that one horrible quality of all cooks.. and they could never be wrong. I have to say it seems super super weird she did not know the difference between scrambled eggs an over easy??! Hmmmm
Okay, thank you to you too!
I thought I was going nuts, because I was thinking that I feel a bit different about him.
I don’t think he is attractive at all, but I also don’t think he is that much of a jerk either.
He isn’t as bad as I thought.
He did try to tell Sydney that right from the start, and he could have been nasty to her because she won’t leave him alone, but he was pretty nice about it. She still didn’t get the message, and he still was fairly nice about it.
It’s interesting to me that every chef on Below Deck with the exception of Kiko (who got fired) is an arrogant asshole. But it is only the FEMALE chefs that get all of y’alls wrath. It was obvious to me that as soon as Captain Glenn mentioned how important breakfast was to these guests that it was going to be a storyline. There was no need to for him to mention that at the preference sheet meeting other than to advance an upcoming storyline about the egg debacle. I’m quite sure that Natasha knows how to make eggs. The whole scenario was unbelievable to me.
In other Sailing Yacht news, Ciara and Paget have ended their nine month engagement despite buying a house together in France. 🙁 It seems like an amicable split.
Um, people hated Leon, and hated Adam. People hated Tom. People hated Rachel.
People hated that chick that served the lamest nachos ever. Mila.
And you think Natasha is the only one to get bad comments?
Sorry….I shouldn’t use the word hate, but this is not the first chef to get our wrath.
I really don’t understand why you defend her. I haven’t seen anything redeeming about her.
I don’t think she is the worst chef they have ever had, but that isn’t saying much.
And she sure doesn’t seem to know how to make eggs…Poached or over easy!
and that’s the truth…..
I guess I’m not reality tv savvy enough to figure out that the serving wrong eggs advances a storyline. (????)
Damn- those two had been together forever (although they did have almost a “brother/sister” vibe, and not just because they didn’t show p.d.a.- it was their chemistry) I’m half joking about this, but I wonder if that singer who had the hots for Paget will re-enter the picture now. She seemed so enamored with him I almost felt sorry for her (and I know I’ll take heat for this, but I liked her songs, lol). Miss the first BD Sailing- production’s made this one fake like they do everything else (they’ve inserted all the stupid drunken partying and hook-ups). The first season was somewhat refreshing because it mostly lacked all that.
I think each chef had qualities that erked me. Ben seemed always high to me, beef cheeks Leon. that creep one that hit on the Canadian stew, who can forget Mila and her nachos, the guy in the van and his history with stews. Yeah I think this latest show, they picked an over the top crew that really have no shamr when it comes to TV and Natasha is just part of the obvious storylines the producers are writing. Just like the 9 plated dinners each with their own sides with no help to expedite all at the same time, come on!!
I started watching this week saw up to the one blonde going into Gary’s room. Btw I do no get his appeal, and I got bored, just like most of this season.
Honestly, because I’m not really watching this BD Sailing Yacht that much, my dislike of Natasha comes from the vibe I got about her on WWHL. I thought- who is this nasty bitch with a scowl on her face and a chip on her shoulder (you know, that look just short of an eye roll- only it’s the “permanent look”). So for me, has nothing to do with her as a chef. Any my dislike of Leon was ever so much greater than for Natasha. And I hate, hated Tom. So, my view has nothing to do with the gender. They can be crazy (I worked with many in my years waiting tables throughout school), but if they’re crazy with a modicum of charm or personality, I’m cool. This woman has neither (just a permanent ‘tude and nasty look).
I meant (above)- the way I view Natasha has nothing to do with her gender, not “has nothing to do with her as a chef”.
Yea my husband has not watched all the episodes this season with me, but the other night he heard Natasha and said, WHAT A BITCH!” She had the same attitude on WWHL.
I was a little shocked that after Allie asked Gary to just have a truce because she was struggling with grief, he continued to be a dick to her. He turns on the charm when it’s on his timetable, and then is cold as ice when it’s not.
Natasha is a problem. You can either know not know how to do basics like eggs, or you can be arrogant about your know-how, but you can’t have both. She’s very Adam in that whatever she doesn’t enjoy cooking, she makes it seem like only idiots request those kinds of dishes. (For him it was vegans — and onion haters.)
We all know Ben hated Breakfast. Sydney is so desperate. But the funniest moment of all, was when Gary said that people told him he looked like Brad Pitt. Seriously? I can’t believe he thinks that? Gary! YOU DO NOT LOOK LIKE BRAD PITT!!! AT ALL!!!
Gary maybe a liittle Brad Pitt with a mullet or an extra on the set of the Brady Bunch in 1974. Dude had got to have an enormous personality in his pants, lol!! Because hes fugly!!
On the first episode, Gary said that women LOVED his hair. I think Gary loves Gary more than anyone else. Sorry Sydney. You are no competition for himself.
Miss Tamara, Did you say you liked Wyatt Pike? He quit American Idol?
Yeah, that was shocking. I wonder what on earth could have caused him to quit. It had to be something major like a death of a loved one or something. He was a frontrunner. So far no further information has been released other than “personal reasons.” So sad.
wasnt it Rachel who said she was not going for all of this short order cook nonsense at breakfast, and she put out some fruit, homemade waffles or something, eggs benedict, etc, put out a great spread and everyone loved it. Why cant Natasha do that?
I looked up Natasha’s nationality because I though maybe it was a language thing. It just doesn’t make common sense that she wouldn’t know different ways to cook eggs! She is messing with the tip and Daisy is trying to help in that area. Gary is gross and the girls are desperate. It is like the job is secondary to getting drunk and screwing….the job is getting inthe way of their fun….the audacity!
Quite seriously, if she hasn’t worked with Americans she might not. “Over easy” is 100% American. But if you get an order of over easy *and* scrambled, that tells you that they’re not the same thing!
Before my internet crashes AGAIN …
At the preference sheet meeting, “American style breakfast” should have been discussed.
Egg “cooks” are different in the US than Britain and other English-speaking countries.
Natasha has no idea how to use an egg pan. If it’s not dedicated, you need to scrub with oil and salt. At the diners where I waitressed and was “break cook,” I could rock FOUR omelettes in pans, including flipping. I could easily handle four pans of scrambled, and usually handle four pans of over-whatever including flipping. And I WAS THE WORST COOK THERE. Eggs on the flat-tops are greasy and omelettes folded like burritos are gross. If you really want to impress the party-goers, you baste the eggs in beer. (Do like Sunnyside up but with a lid, it lightly cooks the tops.) But then, you have to salt-scrub the fucking pan.
Good thing no one ordered Eggs Fran-FUCKING-caise!
Nanette are you available to make breakfst for me? Sounds delicious!
