S04.E18: Au Revoir, Sirocco

[OnceSane]

Quote

A boat catches fire in port stranding Sirocco with nowhere to go; the interior team resents Sandy's harsh criticism; Jack and Aesha contemplate their future; Sandy calls out Hannah's lack of passion for yachting.

Oh fuck off Sandy. Criticize her work/performance but it’s none of your business if she has a passion for yachting. A ton of people do it as a means to end because they like the travel, the flexible schedule and the money and that’s okay! Most people don’t work at jobs they are passionate about because that’s the way life works. You aren’t a life coach so shut it!

I actually like the idea of calling out Hannah on yachting not being her passion.   All that you say here is true, but a reality check is probably a good thing for Hannah - and for Hannah and the captain.

I think Captain is completely fine with the idea that yachting may not be Hannah's passion.  It doesn't really matter so long as Hannah does what she's supposed to do.

I actually adore Hannah, but I'm with Sandy on this one.  IMO, Hannah is like Jack.  She seems to do just the bare minimum to get the job done and rarely goes above and beyond.

Since Sandy’s current passion seems to be doing anything to get extra camera time I find it completely disingenuous. Not to mention the only “yachting” Hannah does anymore is this show so it’s also a bullshit argument.

YES! Sandy's passion is fame whoring, micromanaging (I could swear in the beginning of one of the seasons she said she didn't micromanage),  lots of camera time as well as schmoozing up to the deck crew while trying to break the interior crew. Hard to be passionate about your job when your boss is creeping around and criticizing your every move.

Excited for the return of Capt Lee and Kate!

 Love it! LOL!  Go sail away into the sunset with your new lover Sandy. I would much rather have Captain (forgot his name but he's the bald one with lots of brown spots) take her place. 

But I'll be watching the season finale to find out if Hannah got fired or quit or everything was Bravo editing.

[The Ringo Kidd]

I would rather have Captain Crunch take over for Sandy.

He would be less of a cartoon.

[Mindthinkr]

Hannah’s eyes looks like a deer caught in the headlights when Sandy was scolding her. 

[PaperTree]

Sandy is getting on my last nerve already.

[Mindthinkr]

Ben is the voice of reason right now. “You have four more hours”. 

[Mindthinkr]

Oh no Collie. You did something yucky. You don’t swipe the top of a shareable container with your finger, take some, and then put the lid back on.

Damn, Sandy! Why didn’t you just slap everyone who was there before Ben in the face?

Edited October 1, 2019 by pieinmyeye

[TexasGal]

Does Ben have some kind of strip bandage under one of his eyes?  How did that happen without us hearing every detail of it?  (Or did this happen last week and I forgot about it?)

Sandy is the kind of boss where you just have to let them blow their top and appease them and then they’ll get over it.  Annoying.

[snarts]

The guests ask for a 10:30am brunch to sleep in on their last day. So why did the deck crew waste time setting up all of the water toys, including the slide, only to put them away to pull anchor at 9:30am?  Complete waste of time and Captain Sandy eats it up like it's some big leadership display.  

[nytonc]

At least Colin didn’t stick that finger back in the food.

I actually don’t mind Sandy. Hannah, however, gets on my last nerve. She’s acts so lazy and entitled. I agree with Ben saying more work less love. Up til this charter, the table settings were meh. I set a better table for a dinner party. If I was spending beaucoup bucks on a yacht, I’d be beyond annoyed if I had to ask for a drink or wait for the table to be set 10:30 breakfast time request notwithstanding. There’s just no excuse for the shoddy service. Hannah couldn’t care less about her job. I hope she gets fired.

Sandy slinging dirt at the tip meeting was unnecessary.  Her little "passion" speech was cringeworthy.  Good for Hannah just walking away, deprived Sandy of some camera time.

Ben needs to get over himself.  He has no business getting all judgmental on Hannah.

Now Sandy wants to be a team.  barf.

Well maybe for her entitlement and service, but not because she is something good to snark on.

Only with Joao. 

[PaperTree]

Travis and Jack's "camp-out" was cute.

Colin and Ana couldn't have run off that boat any faster.

[Kdawg82]

Yes Sandy is annoying but when Hannah started in on "how can i have passion about scrubbing toilets [& wiping fingerprints]?" & Sandy said "c'mon Hannah, you know it's not about that," Sandy was absolutely spot on. Hannah wants to do the minimum and get praise and be a "high class" bi**h. I've never seen anything above and beyond with Hannah and likely never will.  She is also a mean girl. 

All this "female empowerment" b.s. that Anastasia is spewing on SM is annoying. You have a bad attitude and all had unkind moments toward June and even one another (in talking heads). But Aesha's probably got the least amount of emotional baggage and is able to show kindness most of the time and to most people.  

[spunky]

Where was all that negative energy when Mila was cooking dog food for the guests Sandy!? Aesha needed to stay in her lane during the dinner and let Sandy and Hannah work out their own issues. Now I understand why Joao is always singing Sandy’s praises. She helped him get his Captain’s position, and he’s not going to rock the boat. Ben’s intensity was hotter than the burners, but his food looked amazing. Neither Hannah nor Sandy are going to leave this dog and pony show, and will be back next season with their love/hate relationship.

But for the interior crew of a yacht those mundane tasks are what the job is about and something that even a chief stew might have to do on occasion particularly on Hannah’s level there isn’t the same path for interior and working up in the field most likely means leaving the yacht and going into more administering duties like provisioning, planning charters, yacht sales etc. thus getting rid of a lot of the reasons she got into it (travel, flexible schedule and the money) so as usual I thought Sandy was full of shit. Criticize the performance not whether or not she has passion for it. Especially because she only does it for the show so it was just an excuse to pontificate.

I liked June. But she wasn't on long enough to make that my solid opinion!

They did that because they’re not trying to hear Sandy’s craziness.

[Luciano]

Didn't Colin literally say that he didn't have a passion for yachting earlier in the season? Sandy's reaction was to pretty much beg him to stay despite it. Now she's basically telling Hannah she should do something else because she thinks this isn't Hannah's passion. Hmmm.

I would be incredibly uncomfortable if my boss, especially if it's one who I have an uneasy relationship with, asks me for a 'Big hug!' after scolding me. You don't need to be grabbing me by my shoulders, you don't need to be kissing my cheek, you don't need to be touching me in any way.

She thrives on people looking busy even if it doesn’t make any sense and the time could be better spent doing something different.

Aesha & Anastasia are on WWHL tonight. So neither is filming S5. 

My new guess on returning cast: Chief Stew Hannah and Captain Joao.

I wondered how Sandy found time to drive the boat since she seemed to look for reasons to be on camera.

I wonder why there’s no reunion.

He is definitely not on the season. The only two not accounted for are Sandy and Hannah.

To me it seems that Sandy always favors the men, especially Joao or whatever his name is.

[maggiegil]

Clearly unsolicited career advice is Sandy's passion not Yachting.

Guarantee you if the table had been set at 7am and then had to be reset for the actual meal and everything washed because it got salty Sandy would be on about what a waste of time it was. Setting out the toys when they ended up departing before the guests got up was a major waste of time and energy.

I don't think Hannah is great at her job when you compare her to Kate but she gets the job done, has a way with guests etc. She put up with a lot this season with Mila, then down a stew and the cold food complaints etc. I think Sandy should have acknowledged that.

Sad we didn't get to see 'no onions' guest this season it would have been interesting to see how a Chef who isn't Adam would have handled it.

I hope if Colin isn't back next season on Below Deck Med that hes still on my TV in some capacity. Can you imagine Colin and his Mom doing something like Peoples Couch, tv gold

[Fostersmom]

Sooooo.... where the hell was Sandy during EVERY SINGLE BREAKFAST but the every last? Oh wait, she wasn't there. And yet somehow all the guests managed to have table settings.  And I'd be really grossed out if I found out my table setting had been sitting out to the open elements and bugs for 12 hours or so. 

Sandy just disgusts me. Her issue with Hannah isn't her "passion". It's that Hannah isn't finding ways to kiss her ass like Joao, Travis, and Jack. Maybe Hannah should be a falling down drunk and hit someone, constantly cry to her about how misunderstood she is, or do ONE right thing, and that would score her points. 

Her oh Hannah, I LOVE YOU, we are BFFS bullshit while telling her that she obviously doesn't want to be there was just gross. And so unacceptable as a BOSS, but that seems to Sandy's MO. 

[Kdawg82]

I see you rrrrzzzzowow....

Kiss Sandy's ass for brownie points, promotions, recommendations. When you're out and about, you drop your mask and mumble your true opinions to people and berate them. I hated the ass kissing but he saw it worked out. I think he's a good worker but the lovey dovey with Sandy is nauseating.

Hannah is no superstar but I wonder if she could've sucked up more to Sandy to at least avoid the constant criticisms.  

I don't recall other charters/seasons boats having table "decor" at all 3 meals especially at breakfast. 

Colin looks like he's Benjamin Button , aging BACKWARDS!!! Must've REALLY wanted to go home!!

[PaperTree]

WWHL informs us that Jack and Aesha are no longer a couple.  He ran back to his old girlfriend at home.

Shocker!

[breezy424]

Go away Sandy.  She's so all over the place.  She's so f'ing hungry.  Take another look at Below Deck and see how Captain Lee does it.

If anyone is curious about the details, you can get them here. Jack really is a wanker. I never found him (nor Travis) charming.

[Hangin Out]

I still like Capt. Lee and Kate the best.  Capt. Lee stays on the bridge and rarely comes out except to scold.  Sandy is too much all over the place being nosey and wanting air time.  She should stay up there and steer the boat, period.

[PaperTree]

Just now, Luciano said:

Well he is said to have a big dick.  lol

[Lady of nod]

Awww. Poor little Sandy lost her appetite when Aesha spoke her truth. Fuck you Sandy - if you don't want an honest answer, don't ask the question. Good on Aesha. Sandy was really feeling herself tonight - looking "expensive" in her leather jacket, and voicing her opinion on everything in almost every scene right up until then. And could Jawow be any further up Sandy"s ass?

And now she's on cash cab lol. I hope she's not back next season. I think she's treated Hannah very unfairly. Hannah certainly worked harder than Jack at least for the first half of the season, but I didn't see her calling him out in front of everone.. It's so obvious that she was feeling left out of the love fest between the stews. Cannot stand her. 

[Delete]

I won't be watching The Captain Sandy show next season. She absolutely killed any of the fun. She was lurking around every corner, and not allowing her crew to breathe. . She's got a borderline personality; "I love you, no, I hate you."

She's a sanctimonious windbag who is in love with her own farts. 

You can't win with someone who operates that way. If I took a shot every time she said 'passion' tonight, I'd be in an alcoholic coma. 

Rant over, and out.

Ugh.  Does that mean Sandy is back next season?  I really dislike her, she ruins the show.  SO looking forward to Captain Lee and Kate.

[MVFrostsMyPie]

Sandy is just a terrible terrible terrible manager. 

[scrb]

It’s more fake drama.  Hanna tears up a bit — because Sandy was mean! — but as usual, they all hug it out with kisses when they exit stage right, one by one.

She was already talking about next season!

After Ayesha complained the interior wasn’t praised enough, they showed clips of Sandy praising them over and over.  This dressing down of Hannah is the last bit of drama for the season.

In any event, are there many lifers? It’s a physical job so seems like people would do it for a few years to make as much money, travel, party, etc. and then look for more long term jobs.

Of course on this show, Hannah and Sandy will keep doing it as long as Bravo keeps them. And for Bravo to keep them, they have to play along with the ruses, to have more “dramatic” episodes.

[HunterHunted]

Unsolicited life and career advice is not a subject on the captain's licensure exam. I just checked. Either Sandy is confused about what the duties of a captain are or Sandy is deliberately trying to downplay her other passion--getting her thirsty mug in front of the cameras. Drive the boat lady because no one is going to give you the Iyanla of the Ocean show that you think you deserve.

[esco1822]

This season was missed opportunity. We should have design a drinking game to take a shot every time Sandy called one of her crew “an incredible human being.”

I watched that and Jack is something else. Aesha thought they were going to stay together post the show and instead of being honest about his concerns, Jack’s girlfriend was the one breaking off Aesha and Jack’s relationship. Aesha still speaks highly of him, but he’s an asshole. He should have been man enough to end the relationship when it was clear he didn’t want to do long distance.

Hannah sucks. I don’t think it’s that yachting isn’t her passion, per se, it’s that she makes it so obvious she hates the job. I’ve had jobs I’ve absolutely hated, but I showed up every day with a smile until I could work in the field I did I love. I had bills to pay. Hannah doesn’t try at all. She put more effort in the girlfriend proposal than she has in the charters. Yachting isn’t her passion and she’s not the suck it up and act happy at work type. She complains about the job, her dissatisfaction, her coworkers, and her guests. Hannah needs a different career.

Colin also said yachting wasn’t his passion, but his performance didn’t suffer because of that. He still tried to contribute to his team as well as the interior when help was needed.

He’s said that he’s grateful for her believing in him and mentoring him and he also sees her as a second mother. He’s one of those people who shows his gratitude by being extremely loyal. She was on Twitter doing her victory lap last night, because once again he was praising her for getting him where he is now.

[Mr. Miner]

I've always thought being a stew would suck. Working for this shit captain would be unbearable. I still think Hannah sucks!
