S06.E06: The Morning After

[TexasGal]

Quote

After an explosive night out, the crew ponders whether they can forgive and forget. Meanwhile, when a crew member has a shocking change of heart, Captain Sandy must decide if she is willing to give one more chance.

Bravo Airdate: 08.02.2021

This season the episodes will be airing a week earlier on Peacock Premium.  You can comment on the episode once it is live there.  Anyone waiting for the Bravo airing, be aware there will be early comments on the episode - so don't enter if you don't want to be spoiled!

[ihartcoffee]

So just as I figured Matt was back,  for a 2nd time,  full of regret.  Dude is unreliable, and suddenly he realizes it's not a good look on film to future possible employers. I don't blame Sandy for her decision on him.  

Now Lexi is a whole other issue. She called her mommy,  I was floored. Mommmmyyyy, i can't take itttt, wahhhhh. It explained a lot though... why does Sandy force chief stews to deal with such horrid staff? Lexi was worse than Matt,  she just stayed on the boat.  

WTF Sandy?? Lexi is toxic as hell! 

 

 

 

[TexasGal]

David has bad taste in women 😉 but I give him points for trying to deflect Lexi’s crazy onto him and away from Mzi especially. I thought he handled that pretty well.

Sandy really should have finished her conversation with Katie separate from Lexi.  But I do understand that she was stressed about the chef situation which was job number one for her to figure out.

[PaperTree]

Can Lexi be any worse?  The Bahamas must be so embarrassed.

[aqusdealer]

Chef Ben would have yessed the primary to death, cooked exactly as he wanted to and she would have literally been eating out of his hand. Matt does not have the skills to roll with *any* kind of change. If it doesn't fit his conception of how the night should go, he blocks mentally and cannot recover. Could you imagine him on Chopped? He would self destruct in front of your eyes...oh wait, he's doing that now.

Leaving the boat in a lurch once is bad enough. he manages to do it twice! Sheesh.

[Sunnykm]

That was difficult to watch.  Lexi is vile.  Her apology was not and her running off in tears is a classic gaslighting ploy of some women.  And Captain Sandy asking Katie to get along with Lexi??  She is toxic to everyone around her, demeaning and full of manipulation.  And if from the previews we see Courtney destructed by the special treatment of the vile and toxic Lexi that will be just awful.  Don't reward bad behavior!

The guests are funny! A robe! slippers!  We want want food now!  Obviously not well-traveled at the elite level.  Maybe brought Olympia to help navigate protocol but she doesn't have much of a clue herself.  Points tho for trying.

[aqusdealer]

What do you think Captain Lee would have done with Lexi and Matt's shenanigans?

[Jack Sampson]

I would have told Lexi her dad died just to get away from her.

[JocelynCavanaugh]

Just FTR, I said the thing about Afrikaans before Mzi said the same thing in this episode! 🤓

[Marcya23]

Was anyone else surprised that the Chief Officer (or whoever that was) waited until Sandy woke up the next morning to tell her that her Chef left?  Isn’t that something the Captain should know ASAP?  I found that odd. 

And, as someone who lost her dad around the same age as Lexi is now, I don’t feel sorry for her or excuse her behavior. Yes, I am sorry she lost her dad. I know how terrible that is, but if it is impacting your emotions and behavior towards others, maybe jetting off to be on a reality show isn’t the best decision. Unless you are a vial, fame seeking, attention whore with or without a dad. 
 

 

[Rebky]

 I was only 13 when my dad died, and I handled it with a hundred times more maturity than Lexie has.

What good would it do to wake her at 3am? She needed sleep I'm sure.  

Matt is a loose cannon, he got what he deserved. 

Lexi however did not get what she deserved from Sandy.... a stern warning?  Something?

Clarification

[gaPeach]

I am confused on the episodes now.  I have Xfinity and it was showing Ship Happens again last night.  I had to go to Peacock to see this week's episode?  I have no clue.

With that being said, I don't think the passing of Lexi's father made her act that way.  I think Lexi was like this all he life.  She said some really nasty stuff to all of the crew.  Then to wake up and claim she doesn't remember but was quick to get defensive when those not drunk tried to tell her what she did?  I do like that her mother told her to knock it off and keep working.

Maybe the guy that escorted the chef off boat didn't tell Sandy until the next morning because he doesn't like her either?

[Baltimore Betty]

I truly think Lexi wanted everyone to fall over themselves trying to get with her because of her beauty and when nobody paid attention to her in that way she could not deal, she must be used to getting people to pay for dinners and such so she was angry.  She really had no grounds for her behavior, nobody did anything to her, she was like that out of the gate, how does she get thru life being that nasty?

Matt reminds me of an ex friend of my husband's, he would fly off the handle, throw fits for no reason, storm off and pout, talk inappropriately and when it made people uncomfortable and was asked to stop he wouldn't, he had to be the center of attention, would say horrible things to people, needed an enemy at all times, had to right, always.  I think narcissist is the word I am looking for but maybe it is something else, maybe we have a psychologist among us, please chime in if I am calling him the wrong name.  The point is, nobody wants to be around that behavior so good for Matt packing his bag and leaving without getting fired first.  

Z's adoption story was so touching, he seems so nice or at least nice enough to not push Lexi back when she pushed him.  

Did anyone else notice the difference in table setttings for the last morning breakfast with Drunk Roy and his friends? it went from a green, yellow and lemon decor then switched to a blue, white and floral decor then back again all during that breakfast.

My thought about Matt not being on the boat after they all came back from dinner, I would have been looking in the water around the boat, he left and was upset or in a bad frame of mind...you never know someone's frame of mind and he admitted to having anxiety, just my thought.

She's probably a lot nicer to older men with money looking for an arrangement.  

[Marvin]

Lexi should have been sent packing. She is one of those people that will bring down the whole team with her actions - and they will only get worse not better. Her dad dying is not an excuse for being a spoilt entitled brat.

[psychoticstate]

Bravo's casting decisions have never been more clear.  Make sure every crew member is willing to drink as if they are going to obliterate their liver in one sitting and then wait.  It worked on Jerry Springer.  

So Matt drank so much that he can't remember why he was angry and stormed off the boat?   Lexi drank so much she not only cannot remember what she said to, basically, everyone but why she was mad?  I guess she doesn't remember stating several times that she was Satan as she crawled into her coffin -- I mean, her bunk.  

I think Sandy made the right decision with regard to Matt.  While his food was apparently good, he's just not reliable and you certainly can't have that on a chartered luxury yacht.  (Matt, maybe this is a wake-up call for you to stop drinking.)  

I disagree 100% with Sandy's decision (assuming it's her decision) on Lexi.  When a crew member is telling her direct supervisor to fuck off, is calling a deckhand a slur and is telling the ship's bosun to stand the fuck down, she's got to go.  There is no redeeming that in my book.   And that's not including her putting her hands on Mzi and on Lloyd.   Honestly, WTF was Lexi so angry about anyway? 

I get the impression she's a spoiled, entitled little twit who's been coddled and skated by her whole life because she's been told she's pretty.  (She is pretty but man, does she have an ugly spirit and soul.)  She's clearly offended that not only does she have to pay for her own meals but she is actually expected to work and not just stand around and look pretty.   I think Katie is a great chief stew but I would pay good money to see Kate eviscerate her.   

Choosing the path Sandy did, telling Katie to work with her and deal with it, sends the message to Lexi that she's probably always gotten -- she can do no wrong and it's always someone else's fault.  If Sandy wasn't going to fire her, she should have at least told her in no uncertain terms that if she puts her hands on another crewmember again and/or she verbally assaults anyone, her mean-girl ass will be dropped at the closest dock or pier and she can take herself right back to her $8G a month condo in Miami.   

[aghst]

I tend to think BD does too many stunt firings.

But if there was anyone who had to go it was Lexi.  She burned her bridges with everyone that night and told Malia “sorry not sorry” and told Katie “FU take this job and shove it.”

Her mother talked her off the ledge, probably thinking she should finish what she started.  But the crew is wary of her so there’s likely more meltdowns coming.

The absurd thing is, all of her behavior is taped so Sandy could have seen what happened, which included her rubbing her tits in one guys face and shoving another one.  So it was more than drunken words.

She said she was brought up to be forgiving but must have hated that notion.

How did she compile a burn list because she doesn’t seem capable of holding back.  Or has she done these things before but still plan to get more revenge?

[CSunshine76]

I hope Katie or Production or someone let Sandy know just how awful Lexi was. We didn’t see Katie mention that Lexi sexually harassed Lloyd by throwing her boobs in his face.  I can’t believe she let her stay on the boat when her behavior impacted the entire crew! She is toxic.

Chef Matt…find a new profession, you obviously cannot handle the stress of cooking for charter guests (and crew). At least Sandy took him back only until his replacement could start. He needs to learn you can’t quit every time you get upset and then show up the next day; just kidding, I‘m here. So unprofessional.

Probably not they didn’t inform Captain Lee about what actually happened when Ashton got physical with Kate.

[McManda]

Matt needs help managing his stress and his anger.  Lexi is just terrible.
 

I think Sandy made the right call with what she did with Matt. Take him back for the charter and replace him when you can, because you can't go without a chef an no one else on the boat is qualified to pretend to be one. At least Matt sought out everyone to apologise and sounded a bit ashamed. Though next to Lexi, that's not a high bar to clear.

Lexi, on the other hand, should have been given a plan ticket home immediately. She's toxic and terrible to work with, and wants to be seen as the victim because she "didn't want to be talked to like a child". Cool, you insulted basically all of your coworkers, sexually assaulted one, physically assaulted one or two, and pissed off everyone you hadn't targeted,  and then claims to not remember but if she does it was because of dead-daddy issues so no forgiveness needed? Bullshit. Actions have consequences and Lexi needs some in her life for once. 

There's no changing Lexi or her trajectory. I give Katie a lot of credit because she handled it with more have than I would have. 

Captain Sandy is, by far, the least effective captain.

Sandy has a habit of dismissing the concerns of her chief stews. With Hannah she clearly wanted to drive her to quit so she’d brush Hannah off when she expressed issues with staff.  But clearly it’s not just Hannah. For all her “girl power” mantra, Sandy probably disdains the interior and thinks those jobs are easy.

[vmarsissmart]

If you go to Sandy first and skate around your wrong doing or suck up to her in any capacity.  She will be nice to you.  Did Sandy ever get any real details about what happened though? That morning meeting, no one was willing to say anything specific about what Lexi did or said.  The entire episode she kept checking in on Lexi to see if she's ok when she's the toxic staff member creating havoc everywhere.  

Sandy totally mismanaged that situation.  She should have talked to everyone one on one first to get the details of what happened.  Then telling Katie to "lead". Ummm Sandy, can you please lead?  Katie basically apologizing to Lexi for yelling at her, when Lexi needed to be yelled at?  The fact the entire staff is now tip toeing around Lexi, being gaslit and told by Sandy to make it work?  Hell no. I'd quit if that was my boss.

I'm usually inclined to follow that logic on a show like this. Too many times we've seen spoiled, pretty girls bitch and moan about how hard they have to work and that they aren't being "treated with respect." They are clearly used to being coddled and praised for every little thing, the epitome of the participation trophy generation, and have no idea what real work is like.

But Lexi is something extra. There's genuinely something not right with her. She says she was raised "super religious" in a Pentecostal home. What is her super-religious mother going to say after seeing her on TV swearing a blue streak with her boob hanging out and calling herself Satan over and over? Then claiming not to remember anything the next morning? Perhaps she has multiple personality disorder.

And this is the second time Sandy has fired a chef then asked them to finish out the charter first. I don't know about you but if I'm fired, I walk there on the spot. I guess being on TV and making an extra thousand or so in tip money makes the difference. I'd still not want to risk eating something by a chef that had just been fired.

He is trying to scrape the barrel for some redemption to future potential employers.  Not sure it will work...

[Xebug67]

I'm paraphrasing here, but did Katie (who I absolutely love), seriously only tell Captain Asshat (who I utterly abhor) that Vexy Lexi was difficult, without embellishing about any of her MANY verbal and physical assaults and threats and disrespect and nastiness and rudeness and abusiveness and just all around heinousness?  No wonder Captain Sleeping Beauty minimized what Katie was telling her and sent her back to "make it work" (Tim Gunn she's not).

We're talking about a captain here who basically fired two undeserving employees (Hannah and Kiko) who were nowhere near anything that Vexy Lexi has said or done, and as much as I can't stand Yawnee, perhaps if she had more info on what had transpired we'd be rid of that Bahamian beyotch by now.

There's absolutely NOTHING for Katie to try to work on with regards to Vexy Lexi, who deserves, at a minimum, the boot off the yacht, as well as worldwide shaming on every possible social media source that exists.  She should never ever be able to work anywhere for the rest of her life.  Let her have to depend on being a sugar baby to someone stupid and grotesque enough to be willing to put up with and fund her nasty lifestyle.

As awful as Matt was/is, the HUGE difference between he and Lexi, even though they both purported to be blackout drunk and not remembering what they did and said to others, is that Matt didn't make any excuses for his awful behavior.  His apologies came across to me as being extremely genuine, sincere and heartfelt, and he sought out each individual cast member to extend those sincere apologies to each of them personally.  I actually believed that he felt truly sorry for what he'd said and how he'd behaved.  Do I think he won't act up again like he did the first day of charter as well as on this most recent occasion?  No, because I do believe that there's something seriously wrong with him.  Perhaps a personality disorder, his anxiety, whatever, and thus I would never ever hire him or trust him to be reliable on a job that I was in charge of.  But his sincerity makes me somewhat feel sorry for him as a fellow human being who has significant issues.

Where Vexy Lexi is concerned, hell would have to freeze over a million times before she'd elicit one scintilla, iota of sympathy from me.  That beyotch is NOT sorry, and was completely putting on a show act.  If anything, she doubled and tripled down, and became annoyed with whomever was speaking to her, those very same people that she was verbally and physically abusive to.

She was an incredible phony in front of Captain Asshat when she had that one-on-one meeting with her, and I don't think it was coincidence that she popped into Yawnee's cabin while Katie was in there discussing this beyotch with her.  She totally wanted to interrupt whatever was being said about her between them.

Vexy Lexi is incredibly manipulative in addition to being an all around shit human being.  It's more than just a psychological screw or few loose with her.  She has crazy, out of control, scary rage/anger issues.  She seems to delight in being disruptive of situations and nasty to other people.  She displays all the traits of a narcissistic megolomaniac (no, I'm not a psychiatrist - it's just my opinion). 

I would be crazy scared to share a cabin with her, work with her, and especially compete in pageants against her because this is one beyotch that I don't think would hesitate to smoke anyone who annoys her or gets in the way of her getting what she wants, whether it's a pageant crown, job, or a man.

She is honestly to me the scariest person I've ever in my life seen on reality TV.  I truly believe she's dangerous and unhinged.

ITA about Mathew apologizing,  that was good on him.  If he just would have gone to his cabin and gone to sleep.  

Vexey Lexey is a spoiled brat,  that's her biggest issue IMO.  Calling mommy while your being spoke to by your boss.  What was that??

This was so out of line! I can't believe she wasn't kicked off the boat immediately. No woman would be expected to tolerate that kind of assault, and the men shouldn't have to, either.

I've only watched this season so far and most of BDM season 4, and I have never seen so many people claim to not remember everything they did when they were drunk! So much making out and fighting just lost to the darkness, but very few cast members willing or allowed to say "either you're lying or you have a serious problem with alcohol and need to get off the boat and get help."

Agreed. In my totally amateur opinion, he probably has an anxiety disorder and maybe something else (Bipolar II?). Men are socialized to be "tough," so it's more likely to come out as aggression instead of weakness. That's unfortunate for Mat and everyone around him. From what I've seen or read here, he's one of the better chefs the show has had in terms of actual cooking, but not so great on the reliability and interaction parts. Lexi pegged him as beneath her and a potential mark to manipulate and it worked at first, but she didn't realize what she was stirring up. She seems to think of herself as some kind of sophisticated agent of intrigue but she's actually just a high school drama queen. When she was muttering to herself about how she "hates bitches" and only likes guys, I completed my Basic Bingo card and won some Chef Mila corn nachos.

Bingo. It briefly worked with Lara until she kept pushing it in front of Sandy because she was allowed her to get away with and it worked with that stew that had lied about her work experience because she is so obvious that Joao was able to give advice on exactly how to manipulate her.

There's a part of me that wonders if this is Matt's "thing" though. Act as horrible as he wants only to apologise later. If this is the first time he's done something like this, then I hope he truly learns from it. But if it's a pattern.....

It’s similar to Ben who when sober would be an absolute horrible asshat and then think an apology would make it okay.

Lexie is profoundly disturbed. I also think she knows her obnoxious behavior pleases production and that she won't be sent home.

I am watching this season because Bravo adjusted its casting strategy. We have a wonderful group of deckhands, a great chief stew, very little Sandy...well that's it but I'll take it.

Courtney seems a bit dim but kind.

I can't figure out why everyone is seeing episodes that I am not being offered by my cable service. I appear to be one episode behind everyone else. Last night I watched Roy Jr.'s and Matt's departures.

ETA: thank you dleighg for the explanation for the "early" episodes.

Bravo Airdate: 08.02.2021

This season the episodes will be airing a week earlier on Peacock Premium.  You can comment on the episode once it is live there.  Anyone waiting for the Bravo airing, be aware there will be early comments on the episode - so don't enter if you don't want to be spoiled!

[mytmo]

Lexi is just a basic bitch looking for her next come up.  I hate that Bravo thinks that vile characters make for good tv.

[aqusdealer]

Lexi will not change for the time being. She has a personality disorder and is hardwired to react and behave in a certain manner. I wouldn’t bet on Captain Sandy knowing any of this until the season ends, as Bravo usually does not share events (e.g. Smashton/Kate in the van). The exception would be, IMHO, if anyone was injured. Not out of the question with the Bahamian Princess I suppose. Yes, Lexi appears to have won  this round with her well practiced, innocent denials but like an hourglass, she’s  filling up with sand each and every second that goes by and I’m sure another outburst is just around the corner.

It appears that anyone with access to On Demand can see the episode a week early. I have Spectrum and if I pull up the Bravo channel this episode is available. Don't know about other cable companies but the episodes seem to be available a week early through lots of different services, so it's not just Peacock.

After watching this episode, I have decided that Lexi is Satan, Katie is a saint, and Malia is still a spoiled brat. I do not condone any of the things that Lexi said to Malia. She was way out of line and her lack of a sincere apology made it worse. But rather than stepping up as a senior crew member and figuring out how to make the living situation work, Malia happily let Katie volunteer to switch rooms with her. I didn't even get that mad until Malia's talking head where she gloated to the camera that Lexi is, "Katie's problem now." Once again, what Malia wants, Malia gets.

Malia may be a senior crew member, but Katie is the senior crew member for the interior. There's a big delineation between the deck and interior, and it is up to Katie to manage her people. If it was a deckhand that was acting like Lexi I bet Malia would step up and do what Katie did.

She was way out of line and her lack of a sincere apology made it worse. But rather than stepping up as a senior crew member and figuring out how to make the living situation work, Malia happily let Katie volunteer to switch rooms with her. I didn't even get that mad until Malia's talking head where she gloated to the camera that Lexi is, "Katie's problem now." Once again, what Malia wants, Malia gets.

Malia may be a senior crew member, but Katie is the senior crew member for the interior. There's a big delineation between the deck and interior, and it is up to Katie to manage her people. If it was a deckhand that was acting like Lexi I bet Malia would step up and do what Katie did.

As horrible as Malia was in the previous season, what has she done this season that would be deserving of the same level of opprobrium?

Hey guys - as the episode intro post states, the episodes are available a week early on Peacock.  Many cable providers are also putting them up a week early On Demand.  This is not a locked door mystery.  Please move on.

Lexi was physically combative.  She was assaulting crew members, at the least violating their personal space & at most, swatting at them.  Sandy needed to be made aware of this & then Lexi should've been relieved of her duties. I'm sure others are thinking the same- if this were a man, it would have been zero tolerance. Same applies for Lexi. She also should be taking medications for her disorder which she clearly has (at least bipolar if not more).

Other crew members have been assaulted before and the captain never knew, or said he didn't. 51 Minds Entertainment doesn't give a crap about these people, I'm sure they were delighted with the abuse and drama. 

And I don't think Lexi is bipolar at all. Possibly narcissistic but not bipolar.

Capt Sandy demonstrating those great management skills.  "Figure it out."  She's coming to you because she can't figure it out and needs a little guidance from someone who's worked for a long time in the industry.  

Lexie is confounding.  She won't hear what anyone has to say, assumes the victim role and is so Incredible unpleasant.  Katie telling her that she likes her and her immediately saying "no you don't" is such a manipulative move.  

Lexie is using her dad's death as an excuse to be the dick that she already was.

Producers may have decided they don't want Lexie to leave right away.  So Sandy was telling them to work it out, even if it meant Katie had to room with her.

Who knows, they could have told Lexi's mother to convince her to stay for all we know.

I remember an old Kurt Vonnegut novel, where one of the characters is a psychopath and there were hints of it when he was a boy and he would put natural insect enemies in a bottle and shake it up to get them to fight so that he could watch.

Sometimes I wonder if these producers have similar god complexes, getting off on watching people fight.  Or at least they think it makes them more money through better ratings, more social media engagement, etc.

She's definitely . . . something. Something more than just narcissistic, too. Yelling that she's Satan over and over was just plain weird. I don't think it's a coincidence that she said she was raised in a really religious household. I think she's got issues.

I am confused on the episodes now.  I have Xfinity and it was showing Ship Happens again last night.  I had to go to Peacock to see this week's episode?  I have no clue.

With that being said, I don't think the passing of Lexi's father made her act that way.  I think Lexi was like this all he life.  She said some really nasty stuff to all of the crew.  Then to wake up and claim she doesn't remember but was quick to get defensive when those not drunk tried to tell her what she did?  I do like that her mother told her to knock it off and keep working.

Maybe the guy that escorted the chef off boat didn't tell Sandy until the next morning because he doesn't like her either?

The minute Lexi called her mother or mummi, I knew Lexi was just a spoiled brat.  Her mom seems to have the kids number and told her to stay and finish the job.  Something I think Lexi isn’t prone to do.

I wish someone would pull Lexi's wig off her head.

Lexi should  have been fired. Her behavior was way way way out of line. Her excuse that its because her father recently passed, is bs.

She has always been a monster.

Maybe she ultimately is fired during the season. 

I've noticed that Watch What Happens Live has now featured every cast member as a guest (and its early in the season) except Lexi.

It's kind of cool watching Sandy's transformation from micromanager to totally useless.
