Below Deck Med Recap: The Morning After

August 2, 2021 by tamaratattles 40 Comments

How the hell is it 9 p.m. already? I guess when you sleep until four p.m. this is what happens. I am so excited for this Below Deck Med recap! They left us with a cliff hanger and I almost cheated and streamed this episode, but I hate streaming. I’m not even watching Big Brother feeds much this week because there is no doubt about who is leaving. Anyway, this episode begins with Mat leaving the boat forever, AGAIN. And Lexi threatening to quit. Don’t tease us with a good time, Lexi. Let’s see how this all works out.

Lexi Thinks She Is Satan

Wow! My DVR often cuts off the last few seconds of episodes. I totally missed Lexi pushing Mzi away from her. She should be fired for that alone. David takes David to his cabin to avoid anymore physical conflict. Lexi screams at Katie that she can fire her because she doesn’t need the money. This bitch has got to go. Malia goes off to cry tears of anger. She has been there for Lexi and her grief over losing her dad. But, Lexi is just a horrible person. Meanwhile, Lexi is putting down David, who is just trying to help her, and insulting his job as a deckhand. Lexi finally goes to bed while mutter over and over that they don’t know she is “Fucking Satan.” Wow.

The guys discover that Mat and all of his stuff is gone. It seems that Courtney went to bed early and missed all the drama so Katie filled her in the next morning. Lexi runs into Sandy in the kitchen while grabbing some coffee and tells her an odd version of the previous evening. She claim there was a little spat. Sandy says just apologize, and Lexi makes it clear that is not something she knows how to do. Then, Marten fills Captain Sandy in on the most suspect scene ever in the history of Below Deck Med. Sandy’s response were clearly scripted. She didn’t react like someone being told for the first time that the chef quit.

Katie goes to tell Captain Sandy about the situation with Lexi. As she is beginning the story, Lexi shows up to interrupt. Sandy asks her to join them. Great. Of course Lexi is playing the victim. Sandy wants to have a crew meeting. God she is stupid. She has no leadership skills at all. She should have told Lexi to go down stairs and heard out her chief stew. Captain Lee would neve a call a team meeting for crew bullshit. He’d just start out handing out tickets home, beginning with Lexi. The crew meeting was pointless. Lexi played the victim and then ran crying to her cabin.

Meanwhile, Sandy has to figure out the chef situation. She apparently called for a chef to go to quarantine the last time Mat quit. But, he has two more days left and the guests arrive tomorrow. There is so much going on this episode!  Suddenly, Mat is back and apologizes to Sandy and everyone else. He was wasted and made a rash decision that he deeply regrets. Sandy says she already has a chef. Mat is shocked. Sandy is also lying. Sort of. She tells him that he can do one more charter and then he is done. The crew hasn’t eaten. Couldn’t he whip a a couple of quiches and some fruit rather than “getting started on desserts”? Perhaps he found out about the two cakes before that comment?

Below Deck Med RecapLexi Remains On The Attack

Malia and Lexi have a private talk and Lexi doubles down on her position that Malia was being fake when she comforted her about he dad. I have to say, that Malia and even Sandy for the most part are completely different people this season. It’s a great improvement and I can’t even hate them anymore. In fact, I really like Malia this season. And Sandy is tolerable. Lexi really is Satan. I’m a believer. David is being very kind to Mat. I hope Mat stays for the season. I mean who hasn’t enjoyed a good sex party? 🙂 Malia and Katie debrief each other on their chats with Lexi. Of course, Lexi interrupts any conversation about her. AGAIN.

I feel like I can’t do this episode justice. I’d need a thousand words, literally, for each scene. This is the MOST DRAMATIC SCENE EVER! I never rewatch episodes but I might have to for this one. I miss things while I am typing. So Katie goes to chat with Lexi. Lexi literally tells Katie, “You’re wrong. Malia was wrong. All of you guys were wrong. God I hope there is a reunion and this bitch is on it. While Katie is telling her that it doesn’t feel like she wants to be there, Lexi calls her mommy. You can’t make this shit up. She rudely dismisses Katie and then tells her mommy that she is quitting the boat. YAY! PLEASE MAKE THIS HAPPEN! Katie cries in her cabin. I think she doing an angry cry more than anything. Lexi’s mom asks if she thinks God is pleased with her. She says no, but that is why you pray for forgiveness. UNLESS YOU ARE SATAN!

The Morning Of Charter

The deckhands are all being very sweet to Mat and offer to help anyway they can. Everyone still hates Lexi, almost as much as I do. Once again, Katie tries to explain to Sandy what a cuntsatchel Lexi is. Once again Sandy doesn’t listen and demonstrates what a horrible captain she really is. She tells Katie to get past it and “you’re a leader, rise.” Again, Captain Lee would listen and immediately give Lexi a ticket home if Kate told him the whole boat was better off without her. Instead, Katie had to sit there and listen to a bunch of odd platitudes from some sort of leadership conference. Sandy SUCKS as a leader and should not have a leadership position of any kind. Katie’s reaction was very professional. She tells Courtney she can bunk with Malia and she will bunk with Satan. That’s leadership. Why doesn’t MALIA tell Sandy to fire Lexi. That would do the trick.

The amount of provisions Mat orders are OBSCENE. Katie tells Lexi that she has really pushed her boundaries regarding ethics and morals. Lexi apologizes to Katie for calling her a cunt and blames in on the alcohol. They hug it out. It’s time for the guest. FINALLY. I’m exhausted! The new guests seem excited to be there. They are some sort of “empowerment” company. Or they give leadership lectures or something. Perhaps they can help Sandy. Meanwhile, Malia is the best bosun ever to be on any Below Deck season. The guests love the first lunch. Captain Sandy hovers over the guests again. Athena, the primary goes to give Mat weird instructions about the calamari she has requested. He needs more options for those who don’t care for it.

Calamari is very simple. Flour it. Deep fry it. Garnish with lemon wedges. I don’t eat it myself. But, even I know that. Sandy hovers in the kitchen micromanaging Mat. I feel sorry for Mat. Next week, the primary is disappointed with the two cakes. Sigh.

    Lexi is literally insane! None of her go offs have made sense, the physics degree shit was out of left field. I know we don’t see everything due to editing but Sandy can’t really be that stupid can she? I have trouble understanding Courtney most of the time, but I love how sweet she is. Make Lexi walk the plank!

          You beat me to it. That’s exactly what will happen. She’s an idiot for not even asking what was said and done, she has no idea that Lexi shoved a “lowly deckhand”. Im.not a big fan of Malia for the way she did Hannah dirty, but she was spot on in her assessment of Lexi, she is a BAD human being.

    Lexi and Mat are carrying this show, without their antics its it’s just drunken hookups. Sandy is being told we’re keeping Lexi for a while so deal with it, literally the whole boat! They like their occasional big boobied stews that are either bitchy to a boat hookup or are just mean! Didnt Sandy say she was hiring a deck stew for the boat, whatever happened to that!! Or are we waiting for her to clear the quarantine and Lexi will finally go bye bye to be with her men that pay for the lifestyle and what is it physics or biology, can you imagine her bedside manner🤣🤣🤣 fucking just die already so I can finish your chart and go home!

      I think you are right that when Sandy called for a chef to be put into quarantine she also asked for a deck stew to quarantine. I assumed at the time, she wanted a person who could perform in either role.

    Lexi should be fired for shoving a crew member and making racists statements. She is creating a hostile work environment for everyone and this would not fly anywhere else. Sandy is a piss poor leader. She did not listen to her chief stew and immediately took Lexi’s side. I want to hear how she explains her reaction at the Reunion. I do love how Mzi responded to Lexi’s behavior by just saying she is ignorant.

      I agree with you, especially about Mzi. His response said it all- about Lexi and about himself. Lexi is ignorant and a LOON. I think Lexi should have been fired for it too- and I also think had it been a man getting physical with a woman (nevermind the abhorrent comments) – the man would have been fired. It’s just another reason why this situation and the aftermath is nuts! Is it possible that when Katie went to Sandy she didn’t clearly remember what had gone down? She didn’t start by saying Lexi was physical with Mzi and being racist? Wouldn’t it have been really hard for Sandy to have the lame response she did had that been clearly stated? It was the craziest episode of BD any version – EVER

        If Sandy was a good captain and a good manager, she would trust the decisions and feelings of the people she hired that are directly beneath her. I don’t think Katie should have had to go into details about Lexi’s transgressions. She summarily dismissed Hannah’s wishes in the past also, then she’ll claim ignorance and comment at the reunion, “oh, if I knew how bad things were I would have fired them on the spot”. She’s a terrible leader.

    Why is no one talking about Lexi shoving her boobs on Lloyd which was clearly very upsetting to him!!! She has attacked people verbally, physically and sexually. If a male had done something similar it would have been complete outrage.

      Thank you! Both my husband and I said the same thing last week. Lexi would lose her warped mind had the reverse been done to her. She had no right to shove her boobs in his face.

      Sandy is ridiculous as a leader.

    Across all the BD crew franchises, Lexi is the absolute WORST person ever. She is a nasty, entitled, narcissistic little bitch who think because she is somewhat attractive outwardly that makes her better than everyone else. She has an ugly heart – assuming she has one. Her outbursts at EVERYONE were ridiculous but, more so, harmful. Her dismissal of Katie was next level insubordinate. Katie should have INSISTED that she be removed from the boat. I mean if Capt. Lee had listened to Francesca earlier, we would not have had to endure the mess that was Elizabeth. Why have dept. heads if they are not listened to? That was without a doubt the worst ep ever and that includes those horrible man babies & the way they treated Kate. Sandy is no manager and treated her chief stew horribly – something she has had practice at. Just fucking awful. It can’t be soon enough for Lexi to go. Why is she being tolerated????

    Sandy is like one of those managers that comes in and prides themselves on shaking everything up, even though they pay no attention to what is happening and what needs to change. They are just convinced they know better than everyone else. She also lives to give a motivational speech. I don’t know how anyone works for her without getting eyestrain from rolling their eyes every time she speaks.

    Lexi is a nasty piece of work who doesn’t know how to take responsibility for her actions, instead she makes herself the victim. I don’t know how the rest of the crew could be so generous appearing to forgive her, they are such a good team who clearly have each other’s backs. Lexi should have been fired, Sandy should have listened to Katie and spoken privately to the others, however clearly Lexi makes for explosive tv!

    I had to read this twice to ensure I didn’t spoil anything from the next episode. I hate Peacock — worst streaming network — but I had to watch!

    This is my favorite deck and interior crew ever. Just swap Yawn out and Capt. Lee in.

    ANYONE would be better than Lexi. Anyone. If a white personality had called Mzi “Afrikaans,” they would be gone. Pushing Mzi and smothering Lloyd with her tits while wrapping both hands around his head in a hot tub? ANYONE would be gone — if Yawn had taken time to listen to Katie. She should have told Satan to leave, listened to Katie, called in Malia to hear the deck side. THEN, she could have either heard out Lexi or not, but FIRED HER SATANIC ASS for good!

    With each week, I am more convinced that Lexi is a production plant to make Yawn and Malia look good. They may not have known about the burn list and drunken Satan, but it would have taken 10 seconds to see her superior attitude (signaling trouble ahead).

    Lexi is just dreadful. I can’t believe she’s still there. I doubt she makes it through the season.

    The lady who is with the guests and seems to be arranging things for them; does she work for them, or is she someone’s relative or a guest herself?
