Okay I was expecting I had to prove my point but here goes. Hannah has absolutely no business encouraging another department head to go involved with one of his crew. That is a huge screw up in my eyes. I get it is done to move things along but she be telling him -bad idea not encouraging it. I don't think she schedules her crew well. I don't think she should be taking smoke breaks when the guests are eating, and delaying service. 5 Link to comment

jumper sage July 3, 2017 Share July 3, 2017 The primary's ipad - I do think the whole thing was a set up by producers but: I would think the organization that owns the boat would have procedures in place for operation of the ipad. I would think the chief stew would be the point person to enforce/help out the primary to insure procedures are properly followed. I would think it would be Hannah's job to, prior to docking, seek out the primary and inquire about the ipad and make sure it isn't damaged and it is properly logged out. Library computers are protected with anti-virus software and a program that deletes everything downloaded by patrons during the day. If you wish to save any information or files, you must download them to a portable drive. This is also true for many internet cafes where a computer is available for use. It is all Hannah's fault! She is really for shit this cruise, no? 2 Link to comment

Malia does say that this is her first experience on a yacht (I think she said she's worked on other charter boats prior - just not luxury yachts). Maybe the certification is something you have to renew each year? I think what Malia was referring to was STCW certification. http://www.dco.uscg.mil/Our-Organization/Assistant-Commandant-for-Prevention-Policy-CG-5P/National-Maritime-Center/stcw/ It needs to be recertified every five years. 1 1 Link to comment

I don't get the right to privacy as there was none. According to the captain she should have been notified first and left the crew out of it. When has it ever worked when someone jumps rank and goes to the captain? http://www.bravotv.com/the-daily-dish/below-deck-mediterranean-hannah-ferrier-texting-charter-guest-bugsy-drake-reacts Hannah and the guy still communicate everyday. I guess this is one of the many reasons they don't get it together for a Reunion anymore on the Below Deck franchises. I think what it comes down to is common courtesy. It was a conversation between two people on a public device. A third party chose not log the paying guest off and go about her business nor go to the Captain with her Chief Stew's impropriety. She chose to keep the pad, read and share and gossip with others about it ALL DAY LONG. We don't know if she snooped around and read the guest's other messages. She was snooping and while not technically wrong it showed a lack of courtsey. That is where Bugs fault lies. Had the shoe been on the other foot Bugs would have been just as pissed if someone read and shared her messages and gossiped about them, even if they were on a public device. Bugs has jealously had it in for Hanna from the beginning. It has been shown in her talking heads, her conversations, and her actions. Hanna isn't the best Chief Stew by any means but she is the Chief Stew on this boat and that is what doesn't sit well with Bugs. Edited to add: If I host a weekend get together and tell my guests there is a computer in the library for their use, am I wrong to snoop through a guest's emails or texts if they left their account open? Yes I am. It's not illegal but it is a breach of courtsey and trust. And the Greatest Chief Stew Ever in her own mind doesn't get that. Edited July 4, 2017 by Giselle 9 Link to comment
HunterHunted July 4, 2017 Share July 4, 2017 I've been watching the marathon and there a ton of early hints about Malia and Adam. There was random footage of Adam talking to Malia, which at the time made so little sense. While Adam thought Malia was cute, there were already so many weird dietary issues with guests that Adam didn't really have the luxury to shoot the shit with Malia. Malia starts rocking Adam's backwards cap in the second episode. Lauren also asks Adam if he's single during the crew's first night out and he replies "something like that." 5 Link to comment

I've been watching and noticed that too. In the context of the first episode, their "first meeting" seemed stilted and phony. On rewatch, Bugs's stank attitude towards Hannah was around almost since the beginning. In one of the TH she said something like, "Don't blame me for what Adam said" (about being a better chief stew--"I've thought it, but I haven't said it." She has less experience--and, she is in fact NOT chief stew and should at least pretend to respect her manager. Besides, going around with a humble attitude and PROVING you're better is far more successful than muttering about how you're "better" and acting petty, being nosy, and talking smack to everyone on the boat. Not that Hannah doesn't do the latter, LOL 4 Link to comment
Nancybeth July 5, 2017 Share July 5, 2017 Not only could Bugs see his texts with Hannah, but because he was still logged in, she could see ALL of his texts, emails, photos, etc. Let's say the iPad was dinging and she found him sexting and sharing graphic photos with someone else entirely. Or she found an email with personal financial details, I don't know. Whatever. The point is, Bugs should have either logged out of his account on the iPad and gone about her work, or taken it to her superior to handle. The fact that it was him texting with Hannah doesn't change anything for me. She invaded his privacy and just because it was with someone Bugs knew, that doesn't change the fact that it was wrong. Hannah was also wrong to get involved with a charter guest, and she knew that. But her mistake in getting involved doesn't excuse Bugs' mistake in breaching the trust of a guest. 16 Link to comment

Oops I guess I have the seasons confused. Bottom line Kate was not pleased that Ben asked Amy to serve the meal. Kate had no use for Amy her first season and pretty much told her as much. If we are talking about who is still friends-according to Hannah on WWHL she ended the season on good terms with both her stews. Refresh my memory-did Amy have a steamy or even lukewarm sex situation on the ship? All I recall is her being in the spa and Kat joining a new crew member she was interested in. I don't think Amy provided enough excitement and was not asked back. For the money these people make for six weeks I can't imagine any of them turning down another season, boyfriend or not. 1 Link to comment

However, if a prosecutor gets a bug up his ass, like they did with Andrew Auernheimer or - most tragically - like they did with Aaron Swartz, then they'll reframe the situation to suit the law.

It is just doesn't seem very realistic that any agency would pursue a case against Bugsy when she is under contract with the producers and using their device to interlop on co-workers who have signed releases and the owners of the device not only record Bugsy behavior they air it. Although I do understand others outrage as to co workers of three weeks would breach the presumed privacy of someone flagrantly breaking the rules. I just think they should rework the show and give up the pretense the crew follows any kind of protocol found in most yachting situations. They can also stop pretending the guests are paying full boat for sailing around with this ship of fools. I am just very jaded as to where this particular show has ended up. The scenery is stunning the yacht is beautiful and about all I have learned is the crew gets really cramped awful quarters.

But 'dancer in Dubai' makes me think... other things. Edited July 10, 2017 by DrSparkles posted too quickly 1 Link to comment

I don't think she makes a habit of spying on guests but she definitely takes advantage of any opportunity to undermine Hannah. I think it reflects really poorly on Bugs, moreso than Hannah. Anyone who works in the high-end luxury service industry knows there is an implicit level of discretion. If you want to keep your job, you don't gossip and you only say favorable things about previous/current clients. Adam learned that when he name-checked Eddie Vedder earlier in the season. re: Eddie Vedder: Wait, what??? 1 Link to comment

I live in Dubai and it is very divided according to your nationality. They are multiple types of dance revues including French can-can girls, Vegas-type showgirl revues, etc. She is probably doing one of those. 1 3 Link to comment

Adam told a story that he worked on a charter for Eddie Veddar and his wife threw an octopus and told him to cook it, seemed in a humorous way, and he got rave reviews. I doubt particularly the last part of the story. 1 1 Link to comment

Although I do understand others outrage as to co workers of three weeks would breach the presumed privacy of someone flagrantly breaking the rules. I just think they should rework the show and give up the pretense the crew follows any kind of protocol found in most yachting situations. They can also stop pretending the guests are paying full boat for sailing around with this ship of fools. I am just very jaded as to where this particular show has ended up. The scenery is stunning the yacht is beautiful and about all I have learned is the crew gets really cramped awful quarters. I do like Captain Sandy and am very interested in her view of things. I never said they would, though the possibility exists that a prosecutor could get a bug up their asses and decide to label you a "hacker", which seems to almost guarantee convictions in this day and age. Either way - AGAIN - not the point. What if she had viewed truly confidential information? (This, of course, gets into the debate around whether that kind of information should be stored/communicated via such an account in the first place. The rule of thumb on this is: People are stupid.) The charter guest could have sought her prosecution under such a law. The real point behind everything I'm saying here is that if the content/communications do not belong to you, then you have no business and no right to go rummaging around in them; in fact, to rummage around in them could be to invite much more dire consequences be visited upon you than you thought possible. What Bugsy did isn't as simple as reading love notes being passed between classmates at school. 2 Link to comment

This is my irritation with Bugs' outrage about Hannah texting the guest. Bugs could have taken it to the captain, Hannah, or her friend and department head, Wes. Bugs did none of those things. Bugs told Wes when the entire situation was 2 seconds from exploding. And Wes correctly said that Bugs needed to talk to Hannah because it was turning into a shit show. Instead of talking to anyone appropriate, Bugs went to Bobby who had been in a screaming match with Hannah where he shoved in a door while Hannah was using the bathroom. Really Bugs?!?!?! Bitch isn't subtle. 3 Link to comment
greyflannel July 27, 2017 Share July 27, 2017 Have a few episodes stacked up and just watched this one last night. What Hannah did in allowing a romantic encounter with a client, even just a kiss, was definitely a lapse in judgment, and she deserved the dressing down she got from the captain. What Bugs did was a wilful and prolonged violation of the privacy of a charter guest. Regardless of the fact that the ipad was the property of the ship and had only been loaned to the guest, or that the guest should be savvy enough to sign out of his account on a borrowed device, or that Hannah happened to be the person he was chatting with, or that anything that's done online isn't really private, or any number of other excuses, the bottom line is this. Bugs knew very quickly that she was looking at the private account of the charter guest. After realizing this, not only did she continue to read through the messages currently on the screen, she shared the messages with the rest of the crew and kept the device with her for the rest of the day to keep up with the guest's live messages. I'm pretty sure that in the "Yachting Code" that Bugs so earnestly cites, what Hannah did pales in comparison to this. If I was an employer looking at these two candidates, knowing the above, Hannah would get the job and Bugs wouldn't be considered any further. 4 Link to comment
Rebecca July 30, 2017 Share July 30, 2017 I'm sure the fact they are filming a tv show played into Bugs' decision to keep reading and sharing the messages. I wouldn't be shocked if production asked her to once she originally discovered them. Either way, she's helping herself get cast for season 3, imo. 2 Link to comment
scrb January 4, 2020 Share January 4, 2020 If she took the iPad to the captain, Hannah would have bitched at her for betrayal. But them eavesdropping probably did please the producers s8nce they devoted so much airtime to this story line. 1 Link to comment
