S05.E09: Out, Damned Spot

Quote

Captain Glenn is shocked to see what the crew did to the boat during their night off; he doesn't let the crew off the hook for the damage they caused.

What a miserable bunch of young people.  Glenn was a real wimp to let them all go out for another drunken night. And should strangers be allowed on the boat to have sex with staff?  In the real world would this be ok? I'm done. ;)

It's becoming uncomfortable to watch. Gary is an alcoholic and needs an intervention. He was cast for the drama and being on the show encourages his self destructive behavior. He should not have been cast.

Daisy just wants to room with Gary. Their relationship isn't complicated, it's toxic.

Danni is so full of herself. Diana is skeletal thin. Not much of Cloyce in this episode so I guess he is behaving himself. I didn't watch the season where Chase was on. I don't see why Danni and Diana are acting like he is the most gorgeous man on earth. He looks pretty basic to me.

I have not seen Captain Glenn get this angry at the crew. I am surprised he didn't get angrier at Gary for throwing a lollipop at Davide.

[iMonrey]

I don't remember much about Chase, except that he's kind of a goofball. He's definitely better at his job than Emma was, but that's not saying much. Most of last season was eaten up by the Daisy/Colin/Gary triangle, which is probably why I don't remember much else.

Danni and Diana are both so thirsty I'm embarrassed for them.

Maybe because he didn’t know.  Gary sat there mute, while others covered for him, implying no one knew because everyone was drunk and messing around.

OF COURSE the crew would still be allowed to go to the beach club, which is probably what they mainly wanted to do anyhow.  They will learn nothing.

So WTH did Daisy have to send Glenn a text at 6 a.m. about the stains on the furniture and wake him up?  Surely she could have continued trying to clean the upholstery and waited until he got up on his own.   She talked a big game to Gary about his drinking but she admitted that she didn't want to deal with the damage when it happened because it was 1 am or 2 am and she was drunk.  As I've watched this particular franchise of BD since the very first episode, I distinctly remember Daisy getting blackout drunk on every single crew night out.  Sounds like Gary isn't the only one with a problem.   Frankly, the fact that he could have seriously injured Davide's eye should scare him into stopping with the alcohol.  Unfortunately, most of these crews drink like sailors who have been bone dry for six months and are on leave at the first port instead of a group who has worked two days, three tops, since their last day off.

It sucks that Cloyce, Keith, Danni and Diana all had to pay for the drunken behavior/antics of Gary and Davide and Daisy's ineffectiveness as a chief stew.  I wonder if Glenn had known about what exactly went down if he would have had those three stay back to clean while the others went on the cave exploration?  

So Danni finally gets laid and she's still just as oversexed as ever, making it clear that she is now going to go after Chase, even though Diana is apparently interested, and also saying that once she sets her sights on something she gets it (conveniently forgetting about Keith and Gary).  Honestly, she's absolutely embarrassing at this point; she's a female Gary.   Keith may have dodged a bullet there but based on the "later this season" reel at the conclusion of the episode, he's going after Daisy.  Why?  I think I've said this every season.  I don't understand why Daisy has got the men/boys lining up.  Does something she has in person just not translate to the screen because I don't get it.

Gary and Daisy sharing a bunk - what could go wrong?  🙄  More proof that Daisy is not a great chief stew - there are three female crew members now.  All three of them should have moved into the three-person cabin and then let Chase bunk up with Cloyce, Gary or Keith.    

Otherwise, this episode was a whole lot of nothing.

He seemingly misdirected his ire at the whole crew rather than the actual person responsible for it. Why would the onus be on the interior, or anyone else for that matter, to clean it? Gary never even acknowledged that he was the one who caused it. Glenn's also to blame for continually allowing Gary's behavior to continue unchecked. Anyone else who crashed a tender & damaged furniture would've been fired by most captains.

100% this. I was suffering from such secondary embarrassment watching them carry on about Chase. Chase. Ewww.

[howiveaddict]

Gary is the one who needed to clean the blood up.  He's lucky Davide's eye wasn't damaged.

Physically she's quite attractive. It's just that over the seasons we've seen her at her worst so we don't have fresh eyes on her like the guys who meet her for the first time. Plus, let's face it, they don't have a lot to choose from.

There was no way they wouldn’t be allowed to go to the beach club.  The footage from it is a key part of this episode.  They were going to have the women in swim suits and also get T&A of random women as well.

Yeah no reason for Glen to punish the whole crew either.

It just defies belief that young women want to be on TV appearing so desperate unless it’s all scripted.

The club guy who supposedly hooked up with Danni, wasn’t he suppose to be working?  Or even if he had a day off, would the club let him socialize with guests?  Though they must have had an arrangement with production since they were allowed to film there.  Did all those random people sign releases?  Didn’t see any faces blurred so they must have?

In any event, they weren’t going to miss a chance to get the crew drunk again, since that’s a key element of the show.

I worked at a resort as a lifeguard in my 20s. I was told on the very first day that I could date the guests, but only off-property, which may explain why Danni had to sneak what's his name onto the boat. 

(There was never a male guest that I was that interested in -- I enjoyed  chatting with them by the pool because it made time pass more quickly and would "enhance their resort experience," but I had no interest in being some guy's vacation conquest.)

The success of The Bachelor and other dating shows tells me that sadly there are a lot of desperate women willing to debase themselves on TV.

I can't believe none of these geniuses knows that blood stains come out with hydrogen peroxide -- IF you use it right away.  If they'd put it on right away, they'd've been done cleaning in 20 minutes and Glen might not have known (until the show aired).

There was a blood stain-related plot point in a Project Runway at one point, and I was similarly screaming "HYDROGEN PEROXIDE" at the TV. 😂

 

[meep.meep]

Or you can use salt to draw up the liquid.  Works with red wine spills.

 

[aqusdealer]

Could have been worse...could have been Gary's blood!

Wouldn't hydrogen peroxide bleach the fabric? I remember using it to bleach hair in the 90s.

[Meowwww]

Why didn’t the scrawny dirty guy who bled all over have to clean up his own blood?  I would not be ok, cleaning up someone else’s blood.  Disgusting.

That's a good question.  I don't know how hair dye works, but I've used hydrogen peroxide on blood spots on clothes, etc., for years and never had a bleaching issue.  Usually the red color just lifts out miraculously.  Best if you can make kind of a little well with the fabric and create a little puddle of hydrogen peroxide where the stain is.

It's interesting to me that the OG crew members, Gary and Daisy, are the ones dropping the ball, especially in light of them being heads of departments.  Gary doesn't take responsibility for anything he does.  He's just an overgrown kid.  Daisy blew it by not attending to the blood stains, or making Davide attend to it, at the time it happened.  She is a hard partier and that doesn't always look good on her.
