S08.E07: Runaway Chef

[TexasGal]

Quote

Following Captain Lee and Shane’s conversation, the deck team must deal with the fallout. Rachel struggles with her long-distance relationship while James and Elizabeth’s attraction to each other becomes obvious. Tensions reach a new high after a critical mistake pushes Francesca to consider a stew replacement, and Rachel makes an impulsive decision, taking the whole crew by surprise.

Airdate: 12.14.2020

Wow, Rachel is cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

[nytonc]

No one here yet? My stupid DVR didn’t record so I’m catching the last 5 mins and my mind is blown by Rachel. What the fuck happened?  I’ll have to try to record again when it replays overnight. 

[PaperTree]

Wow!  

[JennyMominFL]

What the hell did I just watch?

[Neurochick]

Rachel seems to display a lot of the signs of alcoholism, including her personality change after a few drinks 🍷.

Good point!  She was already horribly "homesick" and the over the top preference sheet just sent her over the cliff.  Or did she use that for an excuse?  Lee tried to accommodate her, but she was determined to leave.

Yeah I got the feeling she was actually wanting Lee to fire her.

Saw a bit of WWHL and Andy asked Kate about Rachel because they’d worked together before. She said that Rachel would quit one day and then be back the next and that she’d done it multiple times. So I’ll be curious if she comes back. Though given the timeline they’re showing us, she could just be better off given the approach of corona virus.

Just spitballing, but all that drinking may be a bi-product of a bi-polar disorder. The way she kept referring to her boyfriend as a calming force when she feels out of control leads me to believe she has episodes. I know a couple of people with BPD and they display similar behavior.  As an aside, she’s also very vulgar. You could tell, even Eddie and Captain Lee were taken aback by her vulgarity. 

[Lassus]

JFC, this is the WORST crew I have ever seen.  Here is my ranking of remaining crew members, LEAST to MOST competent:

 

Crazy Chef (Rachel)

New Age Stew (Elizabeth)

Deck whatever (James)

Bosun (Eddie)

Chief Stew (Francesca)

3rd Deckhand/Former Stew (Izzy)

3rd Stew (Ashling)

 

Yes, I had to look up a bunch of names.

Im speculating that Rachel comes back because by that time flights to Italy could’ve been halted.   She’s there now under lockdown.  I was laughing my ass off because her explosion just seemed to come out of nowhere.

I also think that Rachel will be back.  I don't know what happened, but she really had some crazy meltdown.  It seems like she thrives on being busy and downtime between the charters threw her for a loop.  Bi-polar?  I don't know, but she definitely has some issues.

Another reason I think she will be back is that Captain Lee, post-season (on WWHL) said that Rachel was the best chef he ever had on charter.  If she just walked out after delivering a vulgarity-laden tirade and did not return, leaving Captain Lee without a chef, I highly doubt he would have said that.

I wonder if maybe Rachel was still drunk from the previous night (or maybe had been drinking still prior to the preference sheet meeting).  Her language was extremely crude and completely disrespectful to Captain Lee, Eddie and Francesca.  I was actually pretty shocked listening to her, and bad language doesn't usually shock me.  If anything, she owes every person present a HUGE apology.  

Rachel may be an amazing and talented chef, but her personality is losing me.  She goes from zero to 1,000 in either temper or crying jags quite easily.  

How long has it been since she has seen her boyfriend?  Two weeks or so?  

Having said that, these upcoming guests' preference sheets are absolutely ridiculous, starting with demanding they have rainbow unicorn floats as an absolute requirement, and ending with the endless food requests.  I can see why Rachel would flip out.  If she were to even attempt all of their "preferences", she would be never have a moment's rest, and with no sous chef or even a fully competent stew crew to assist, it would be next to impossible to produce all of that with the high quality they obviously are demanding.  

I was also quite surprised at Captain Lee's reaction, or non-reaction, if you will, to Rachel's outburst.  You could tell he was, at first, completely taken aback, and then, when she ended with "Go 'f' yourself", he was pissed.  I really was surprised that he didn't completely lose his temper - I know I would have.  He displayed more bad temper complaining about James re-washing parts of the yacht after it had already been done.

Overall, this season is underwhelming to me.  I miss Kate and her snarky commentary.  I'm not feeling any real camaraderie between any of these crew members.  I'm glad for no on-board romances, so far, but I'd like to see some crew bonding, and it's just not there.  

It's also interesting to see that this crew has yet to go out to dinner and then a dance club/bar after.  I wonder if this is something that is being discouraged or not allowed by production after all of the drunken craziness of last season, or if there is just no sexual tensions brewing with this group, so no need to fuel that fire with more alcohol.

Wonder who the new deckie will be....wonder if it will be someone from a past season.  Would love to see Colin from BD Med, but I doubt it.  

[Marley]

Lol what a horrible season. This seems like one of the worst casts yet. 

Something is wrong with Rachel. She’s so gross and something just seems off with her. I also think she used the preference sheet as an excuse to leave. Covid was really ramping up in Italy around then so she probably can’t even get to her boyfriend.

With covid can they even find replacements for all this staff leaving?

Absolutely do not buy that mixing bleach and soap is toxic and can make mustard gas. I routinely add bleach to towels in the washing machine. Mixing bleach and ammonia is a huge no no. The guy who was sniffing around trying to find where the smell was coming from kept saying that you could not mix soap and bleach and Francesca picked up on this and started claiming that Elizabeth put the crew at risk. Bravo should check Snopes before putting this false story out there. And yes bleach smells awful straight out of the bottle and dopey Elizabeth should not have left it inside where she did. I am not sure that I buy that she just put it on the floor and walked out. Francesca just told her to take it outside. This whole thing smells like a Bravo setup to add a little drama. Pun intended.

Bleach and soap mixed can absolutely be a danger, just much less so in an open space. Its all about ventilation

[Baltimore Betty]

Rachel quits a day before the next charter not giving a flip about her coworkers but I have a feeling she reconsiders and returns to the galley but how will her coworkers act towards her, will it be awkward until she apologizes for leaving everyone high and dry?  I thought a good chef would enjoy the challenge of a demanding guest, it is a chance to stretch the chef muscles.

I did like Capt. Lee telling Rachel that even though the guests asked for the moon does not mean they will get it if he was thinking Rachel was overwhelmed by the ridiculous demands.  Some ingredients may not even be available so Rachel has the power to nix a menu request, she really does have all the power...maybe Capt. Lee could assign a temp sous chef for just this charter.

Once again I find myself wondering what sort of super humans the crew are if they can proclaim how they want to get wasted and do get wasted but they are able to be up early the next day to ready the boat for the next charter.  

 

[Mr. Miner]

As much as Rachel says "F me in the ass" makes me think she is into, you know, "butt stuff". Not that there's anything wrong with that.

[Mindthinkr]

This season has been so disjointed. People lax or not doing their jobs. Others that do, but complain to the heavens about it. 
I’m sure Rachael will be back. Any future employer seeing this clip would give her a hard pass on hiring if she doesn’t. I think everyone including Capt Lee are over this season and they are just half way through it. 

[Chickabiddy]

Ok, the whole BleachGate - Elizabeth made mustard gas in the  laundry really bugged me. So, I talked to my German husband who has a PhD in Nuclear Chemistry. Here is the low down according to Dr. Chickabiddy 😉

Bleach is sodium hypochlorite. The chlorine in it is bonded with oxygen. We don’t know what kind of soap Elizabeth mixed the bleach with. Some soaps may be acidic or strong base that when mixed with a base will release the chlorine from its oxygen bonds and create chlorine gas. Just how noxious the fumes were does depend on quantity and ventilation. A favorite sayings our house is that it’s the dose and not the substance that makes a poison. 😉 After all, he does bleach his lab coast in our machine with soap every week, and we are all still here. He did add that sometimes people overact and panic the minute they smell a hint of chlorine.  That may have happened here and may have even been a convenient plot device, knowing Bravo as we all do. 

I happen to feel Mr. Engineer was a little shady because chlorine gas, while poisonous, is not mustard gas. There is no way Elizabeth could have cooked up mustard gas in the laundry room. And I double checked with Dr. Chickabiddy to be sure. 

And in another fun side note. The Germans did not use mustard gas in WWII. That was WWI. Everyone - Americans, Germans, and especially the British had huge stockpiles of it in WWII, but everyone was afraid to use it after their experiences in the First World War.

My verdict is that Elizabeth created a few fumes that probably were unpleasant but not dangerous and then drama junkies at Bravo could not resist jumping all over that shit. 

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk. 😉😘

Some soaps are ok, but some soaps do contain ammonia.  Dawn dish soap is ok, but Palmolive contains ammonia so you can create a lethal gas with that.

Rachel went from 0 to 100 in record time. I'm wondering if she has a mental health disorder such as Bipolar.  Her behavior reminded me of manic episodes that some of my former clients experienced, when I was a mental health case manager.

I think that is something a demanding person might tell themselves to excuse their own behavior.  Rachel's behavior was very much all over the place, but part of me did appreciate seeing someone who was willing to say "no," and walk away when confronted with ridiculous sounding demands from the guests. 

[Earl Is Dead]

I hope Rachel comes back.  When she's not being bonkers her food seems amazing.

I wonder if maybe Rachel was still drunk from the previous night (or maybe had been drinking still prior to the preference sheet meeting).

That morning there were multiple shots of her drinking from a plastic cup.  I kept expecting them to imply or reveal that she was still drinking - although I assume if Bravo had actual footage/proof of that they would have used it.  Her behavior at the meeting sure implied it to me.

[Tango64]

Rachel's outburst with the captain and other crew was hard to understand. I too was suprised that Captain Lee didn't respond with more outrage and shut her down immediately, but I think he was confused by her looking him in the eye and saying "Fuck you!" followed immediately by something like "I love you, you're wonderful, it's not you" and then another "fuck you, eat my ass, you can suck my dick" to Captain Lee and everyone else at the table.

She seemed to be saying those things directly to the people in the room with her --- a lot of "you" thrown around -- but then she'd say something nice to them as if she weren't talking to them. Her vulgarity is off the charts and off putting. I might have admired her for standing up to the outrageous demands of another bunch of douchebags with no taste, but that hissy fit was so out of line.

I think it's pretty clear she was drunk and her drunky mean side came out. The editors made a point of showing Rachel drinking from a cocktail glass when she was talking smack about the chief stew with the other stew. 

Captain Lee's comments about her being the best chef he's ever had could still be true if she doesn't return. "Best chef I've ever had, too bad she didn't stay long and turned out to be a complete loon." I'd agree that her meals seemed to be commensurate with what I'd expect if I spent that much on a charter, unlike some the other chefs who clearly were not up to that standard.

[NannyBails]

I'll chime in with all who think Rachel may have some mental health issues.  It seemed like all her reactions were too over-the-top for someone not experiencing some form of mental breakdown.   I get missing your boyfriend, but dang, all the wailing  ... is this her first boyfriend?  She did say that he was the first one on land, or something like that, so maybe she always worked with her partners?    But the wailing ... and then the over-the-top cussing was just insane.  And not even being willing to do one day's meals to help the crew out? 

And her cussing ... I can have a potty mouth but I was extremely uncomfortable listening to her saying all that to Captain Lee.

On WWHL last week, she said some stuff about Francesca being snarky.  After watching her behavior last night, she has no room to call anyone else out on their behavior. 

[aghst]

Shane accepted his firing, still called his stint a success.  He's going to the beach.

Elizabeth was crying to stay on the boat.

Rachel was crying and swearing to leave the boat.

It's almost half the season in TV broadcast time but in shooting time, it's barely 2 weeks in, 3 whole charters?

 

Show is based too much on firings and replacements.  One-trick pony and they've taken it to the extreme.  

Rachel said maybe she might put up with the BS if they were paying her $16k a month as a private chef.  Guess the TV charter season of what, 4-6 weeks doesn't generate anywhere near that?

She supposedly has been cooking on yachts for years but all of a sudden she's homesick for the bf?  Is it because there may be more tensions from the oncoming pandemic than they're showing?  The bf talked about Italy locking down.  Early on in the pandemic, some of the biggest stories were outbreaks on these big cruise ships, which were being refused to dock in many ports and in some cases, after docking, the passengers weren't allowed to disembark for a couple of weeks, as infections increased on board.

So you'd think the crew would have heard about it or maybe they were just FaceTiming their friends but not keeping up with the news.

Now do yacht owners who hire private chefs care that Rachel has a foul mouth?  Actually throwing out some f-bombs here and there is one thing but "eat my cooter" or "suck my dick" to your pretend boss?  Also leaving them in the lurch, immediately bailing, not willing to even give them one day?

[NannyBails]

Okay, now I'm wondering about Captain Lee's rather passive reaction to Rachel's outburst.  Maybe she does have a diagnosed issue, like bi-polar, and he knows that, and that's why he just let her say what she did.

Oh, forgot to mention that I saw a brief glance of the guest sheet and it appears these dudes are from my area.  I didn't catch their names, but it will be interesting to see who they are and if I know anyone who interacts/knows them.

True.

It could also be alcoholism, which can also be considered a mental illness.

If Rachel has a mental disorder I hope she has registered any "drugs" with Captain Lee or Captain Sandy and Maritime Law Malia might have to swoop in and take charge.

[tvfanatic13]

I recall seeing a sub-title indicating that Rachel was drinking Chateauneuf du Pape, so she was definitely drinking. I also wonder if this coming up charter is when Capt Lee kicks them off the boat. 

[oakville]

Why weren't the guests told that the items requested on their preference sheet was unacceptable before giving it to Captain Lee ?

Captain Lee said that he could tell them when they arrived that some things were not available. Wouldn't it make sense to do this before they even agreed to book the charter ? 

[txhorns79]

One of the reasons I think Rachel might be an alcoholic is because many alcoholics suffer from perfectionism.  As in, "If I can't do it perfectly, I might as well leave."

But they are on a yacht, not a cruise ship, and also they're in the Caribbean, where early on there weren't many infections.  The problem with cruise ships is they carry too many people and that's how infections spread.  

[Lassus]

I was admittedly surprised at the adult manner in which Captain Lee gave Rachel another chance.  "We don't have to get them all this crap, you realize", but as that didn't work, a hearty "fuck off" if she returns would be warranted.  Then again, if he's got literally NO CHEF, he might not have a choice.

ME TOO! I mean I just wish it wasn't done is such an overblown manner but I really did love the dose of reality in "reality tv". Come on! It tickled me pink to see her just matter of factly say "ummmm No". I get there's meant to be drama and it gets amped up. Bravo's escalated this recipe year after year with all of its shows but I do long for real moments like the one Rachel provided pretty much asserting her right as a HUMAN BEING to not play along with the stupid and obvious antics. I get rolling with the punches and sticking a lot of the crazy stuff out for tips, ratings, reality show nuggets but at the same time I want to see these casts protect themselves to certain degree. I hate seeing these casts subject themselves to extremely unacceptable shit in the name of "reality tv" and being a bravolebrity. Rachel shouldn't have to act okay with such an obvious ratings ploy that would truly subject her to shit that will be such an unnecessary mental and emotional strain. It's like bravo thinks it's okay to rattle people beyond the breaking point and it's okay cause ya know ratings... and that's not cool to me. I really wish I could see more people causally draw the line and just come right out and say "I don't think so" and keep it moving. It's not fun when they go too far sometimes. It becomes way too cringeworthy. 

Oh and Francesca was on WWHL and was asked how she would have reacted to the misogyny Kate was faced with the previous season and Francesca went ahead and gave the standard answer of "well it depends". She went on to categorize how to react to guests saying what amounted to well of course you need to suck it up and do your best to get through it for that tip...... Uggggghhhhhhh! Ummm NO! Not even for guests, customers, clients, blah blah blah. Being employed, hired or tasked to perform a service doesn't come with an "ANYTHING GOES" guarantee. I hate that we as a society in ALL industries have adopted this philosophy that beratement, belittlement and disrespect "come with the territory" in the workplace in order to secure that check, that deal, that bonus, THAT MONEY! It shouldn't and people should still expect to earn an income without these conditions looming in every dark corner of every profession out there. Geez Louise!

To me it was selfish.  She had no consideration for her fellow crewmates.  Captain Lee gave her a solution, tell the guests they won't be able to get everything on the sheet.  But I think Rachel is a perfectionist so she felt the pressure, feared she could not deliver and ran away.

I had an uncle that was in WWI, he was gassed but survived, my mother said he was just not the same after that, this was many decades before I was born so not really sure what she meant...just the fact that the bleach was being used in a small unventilated area is enough to make someone sick why not use the bleach dispenser in the washer?  I had a inexpensive washer that had that option so their fancy machines must have one.

Meh.  The company who hired her markets the charters like this.  I still think it's the act of a child.  And when given a reasonable translation of what would ACTUALLY happen by the Captain - who has just a tad few decades more experience than she does - she still takes her ball and goes home, potentially fucking up at least 10-15 people's (short-term) lives the process.  If not way more, due to the show.   I just can't sign on.

Wasn't Rachel a seasoned yacht chef? In the past year she was on charters away from her Vincenzo so was it just the demands of an entitled asshole or does she have some other issues?  

Funny thought, her telling Capt. Lee to go f himself and ranting about how disgusting the preference sheet was would have been different had Capt. Sandy been sitting at that table, Sandy would have thought Rachel the best chef in the world because she threw a fit.

I do think that Rachel's potty mouth may indicate a personality disorder. It seems like a person in a leadership position or critical job should present a more professional attitude and never say things in front of their shipmates like:

• “Life is like a sh*t sandwich. The more bread you have, the more sh*t you have to eat.”
• “You can drive a straight pin up my ass with a 10-pound sledgehammer.”
• ” I would rather drag my dick through 10 miles of whiskey bottles.”
• "We’ve screwed the pooch so many times we should have a litter of fucking puppies running around here."
• "Those two could fuck up a two car funeral."

Her meltdown in the galley could have been done with a little more fucking tact, know what the hell I mean?

I wasn’t really listening when they read off the preference sheet. Did we hear what the guests wanted that was so crazy? Or was it just lots of different stuff?

[Snickerdoodle]

Am I the only one that heard Rachel say she had PMS?  Everyone has diagnosed her as bipolar or an alcoholic.
