Oh yay drunk fat old gals. Blah..sad Disco party...,scallops are gummy? SO is  your brain bitch, after 65 wines.

Poor Matt. Nice guy, but He is Waffle House.

Fucking love Kyle. Bri seems normal .

Fuck you and your hair, Jen.

So we begin with Jenderella on yet another roll of whining.  Enough!!  She is just useless.  Can't even run an orange juicer.  At this point in the season Kate is resigned that she is stuck with her.

Yes Niko, don't be a dick.  Try harder.  Nice of him to acknowledge EJ helped him.  It showed on the boat docking.  Bri merrily flinging along with him.  I didn't quite understand the phone call with Mom.  What happened to the brother that was on the boat?  

Kyle does bring the weird.  Fun to watch, don't want the experience. 

The guests seemed so nice.  Then they get weird.  Really weird.  Sloppy weird indeed!  Captain Lee, earning his tip at the "party".

I loved Kate's "stages of getting hammered".  Hilarious

Matt's cooking is rather uninspiring.  Scallops can be hard to cook, but gummy is bad.  I do them under a gas broiler and have to really watch them.

You don't eat fish?  On a yacht.  In the Caribbean.  And don't notify anybody beforehand.  I would be ordering lobster and filet mignon for what they pay for these charters, but that's just me.

Not sure why Capt. Lee is so upset about the tip.  I thought tips are usually a percentage of the total, so if the charters are the same length and cost, the tip should be about the same.  Unless of course they totally wow the primary and s/he wants to give more.  She praised the food, but who knows how sincere that was.  Maybe he should let Bruno help again.

Glad Kate figured out Jen overslept after bitching about Kyle. Does she know he made the coffee?  I wonder how long Jen spent on her hair.

Kate taking control of the menu.  Smart.  I remember this primary.  Matt needs the guidance. 

Now we get to experience Frisky Jen.  What could possibly go wrong?  A wandering fork and shots of Jaegermeister!  LOL

Kyle needs to get over the food thing.  I agree it's rude, but just tell her to knock it off and move on.

You live in very tight quarters.  Germs are swapping around all the time.

Jen really shouldn't drink that much.  She holds her liquor worse than Matt, then really likes to fling "whore" out there.  Go away and never come back.  Ever.

 

 

Jen + Kyle = Jekyl?

How does Kyle ever eat anything?  Surely he must know that multiple hands have probably touched his food before it is delivered to him at his table!  I would like for him to get a seat to watch food prep in any restaurant kitchen during dinner service, or better yet, in the ship's galley where he can watch Matt tossing the salads with his bare hands!

Kyle is a virtual stranger to Jen. Jen thought she was being cute/flirtatious with sticking her fork into his food the way she did. This isn’t about Kyle’s personal preferences. It’s about Jen’s overfamiliarity. If someone did that, especially someone i barely knew, I’d be turned off too. Baker running interference and attempting to curb things because she wanted to prevent a Jensplosion says it all, really? And what does Baker get for her effort?  Jen calls her a whore, a term that seems to just roll off Jen’s lips quite easily, as she’s said the same to every one of her female coworkers at this point. 

What i liked was Kyle calling out Jen’s behavior at the end. Jen ran to Nico and Bri for sympathy, i guess? She needed to sell her newest victim story and she lost the audience that saw her recent antics. And Kyle heard her and called her out. Because she is the one who blew things with Kyle, she’s the one who is a sloppy drunk, and she’s the one who flipped on Baker for no reason, but poor her? The same behavior she’s had all season. I know it won’t make a dent but i do appreciate it Kyle doing it. It really got out of control in the end, though. 

Also, Jen not understanding “disconcerting” had nothing to do with Kyle’s accent.

I wish I was there when the sloppy drunk Christian primary watched herself last night. 

There is no point to firing Jen on the very last charter and, yet, I hope that preview was not a tease. 

Oh, Nico. I hope you get the same big fat “nope” that Matt did when he tried to go back to his ex.

Man, these charter guests were a hot mess, huh? Or really, just the primary. But.....you don't fuck with the primary!!!!

Seriously, though. Why such a skimpy tip? I realize Matt isn't the most inspired chef. Too many salads. Couple of the ladies didn't like fish (but they never stated as such on preference sheet). But was it really any worse than any other charter? Or was the primary just in a bad mood after her friends tried to corral her drunken ass? Sorry, I mean after her friends tried to shut her down because they were "jealous" that she was talking to Lee. Ha, okay. 

Anyhow, one charter left. Hopefully Matt can finish on a high note. I like Matt. I do. He seems sweet, but really insecure (stop texting your ex!!!!). I don't think he's cut out for this gig. He needs to work in a kitchen with other chefs. I did appreciate Kate going out to eat with him and sorting out the menu. It's kind of sad that he needs that much help from interior and deck crew, but a little collaboration can't hurt. He really should do this every time. 

I kind of loved Lee making all the crew tell the other sections what they're doing wrong. Sure, Kyle's only been there for 5 minutes, but he wasn't wrong. And, from watching all season, WE know that isn't the first time guests have woken up to no coffee, no stew, etc. Jen has overslept SEVERAL times. And then found it prudent to style her lame ass hair for another 10 minutes. She sucks. 

I'm probably going to hell, but I got a real kick out of Nico's face at dinner, when Bri was talking about how they're going to be together after charter. Bahahaha. Keep dreaming, honey. He's already planning his exit. Look, Nico is a child. He's all about instant gratification. He's all about convenience. He's going to cuddle up to whichever girl is right there, in his face. Bri was a nice lay during charter, but he's not going to put in the hard work to maintain anything long distance. 

Jen is a tacky bitch. Kyle offers to take her out to one dinner and suddenly she's acting like a married woman, trying to eat off his plate. I just find that rude. She didn't ask. It's pretty audacious. And I kind of love that Kyle will conceive a child behind a dumpster, but has impeccable table manners. 

So yea, then Jen gets shitfaced drunk, Baker's trying to look out for her and make sure she gets home, and Jen feels it necessary to call Baker a "whore". Way to be, Jen. Way to be. But, I will say, I didn't like how Bruno had to insert his ass and start manhandling Jen. He was making the situation worse. And then he's gonna lock her in the bathroom??? Get the fuck outta here with that.

That's what happens when you hang with that one person who never handles their liquor well and decide to be the saver.

Oddly, for me, I find Bakers name calling worse.  I'd rather be called whore vs. idiot.

Somehow liking/enjoying sex is a worse character trait than being stupid?

And really, Baker's one shot at being a whore was with EJ.  We saw how that didn't work out.  All on EJ.  He's an.  Idiot!  Hee! 

I just got back from a week long Caribbean cruise on which there were well over 3,000 passengers. Not one, including Kate and Capt. Lee, come even close to the service provided by employees who deal with many more passengers than the crew of the Valor.

I mean for goodness sakes, every night I had a cute towel animal on my bed.  In like 5 seasons, I've seen a .....rocketship. Once.

If your culinary accolades result in "really great salad dressing, Chef",  you are perhaps uninspired in the galley.

OK - nobody noticed Baker's "Ross in the blacklight" teeth?  Because I needed a rewind.

Absolutely nothing.  Unless being kind and helpful to a drunk is a bad thing.   Which it's not.  But now Jennifer has no one left to hold her hair and that's on her.  Hee heeeeeeee! 

Just to be clear, I was more pondering the different insults and what is more insulting and why one is more insulting than the other rather than if they were deserved by either party.

Jen wanted to "pop a squat" and pee in public while Baker was telling to wait until they get to the boat.  Jen then started complaining about her UTI.

I think she was saying she was going to GET a UTI if she wasn't able to use the bathroom immediately. Not to be too TMI, but I am prone to UTIs and it's really not a good idea for me to "hold it". But who knows if that's the case with Jen, or if she was just being overdramatic as usual? I think Baker wanted to keep the group together and hurry back to the boat. I'm not sure if it was a safety issues or what, but it didn't look like they were THAT far from that boat.

Sorry, I thought she was saying she had to pee immediately because of her UTI.  Wasn't she also yelling about giving Baker all the UTI pain?  She was drunk and incoherent.  I loved the subtitles Bravo provided when she was talking to Bri & Nico.

Oh, and yes, Nico's already looking ahead trying to rekindle his relationship at home. Typical fuckboy.

I thought that they had planned to do some traveling together after charter & that was what Bri was alluding to at dinner? At any rate, whatever plans they made for once they got off the boat were obviously NOT going to happen. I think that's also why they added that little filler scene of him calling his mom & talking about "back home".

Yea, I think traveling together was brought up by her (I'm sure with the intention of maintaining a relationship after) and Nico was all, "Yea, yea, that sounds great." Because they still had a few weeks of charter to go. Now that the end is really drawing nigh, he wants to break free from her and go home. That grimace on his face at dinner was all I needed to see.

Had to laugh when Kate snitted that Jen hadn't changed her hairstyle in years. With her own overly bleached and frequently disheveled hair, Kate needs to take a seat. 

With her lazy work ethic and nonstop drama, I wonder if Jen has ruined her chances for returning to a Realtor career.

Nico, pushing out pleasant sound bites doesn't detract from your incessant bratty behavior. And clearly he is already planning to seek a new nursemaid/sex toy.

The hungover primary seemed slightly embarrassed at her drunken obnoxious behavior, sitting stiffly and alone on her bed in her cabin. I'm sure she was hoping her friends would come looking for her. Let's assume they didn't.

I wonder how many times Kyle will be in jail in his lifetime. I mean, he is already a convicted thief. Maybe his weird food issues stem from hoosegow antics.

Can we just stop with the "this is supposed to be a 5 star experience?" That ship sailed long ago - about four seasons ago.

She looked proud to be handing Capt'n Lee the tip, as if it was something extra fabulous.

It definitely puts a new light on the story she was trying to spin on Kate's podcast that Nico was always just a fling for her and she had no interest in continuing after charter.

That's what I'm thinking. She probably had no idea what a typical tip for a charter trip would be.

They were talking about staying in St Martin for a couple days after charter, not anything long term.

The deck crew is 4, stews 3, and Mat for 8 person crew. The charter was 2 days? The tip was 15,000? That makes it 1,875 per person or $937.00 per day per person. I think that is a hell of a good tip.  Do you think the staff is worth more than a 1,000 dollars a day? Just to carry out some drinks and clean the toilet?

 

I think i would have bailed on that lame disco party also. If you are on a yacht why would you want to be shut up in a room for?

I think Kyle was right about confronting Jen's behavior. However, he should have waited until morning. I don't think it is productive to argue with a drunk person.

Kate was being generous when she said Jen hadn’t changed her hair in 10 years. My friend had that hairstyle in 1985. And it took her just as long.

Yeah, it's an 11 person crew, including Lee and the other 2 off camera guys, that all get an equal share of the tip.  Still though, the point stands.  At $15,000 for 11 people, that's still $1,363 per person for about 48 hours of work, or $28.41 per hour (including sleep time) in just tip money.  Plus Bravo money.  Plus base salary.  I'm not crying in my drink over these "low" tips.

Loved the stages of drunkenness per Kate!  "This is fun . . . I love you all . . . I REALLY love you all . . . I hate you all . . . I hate my life . . . I'm going to bed".  Lol!

Kate knows all about the stages of drunk.  Although, she forgot to share the one about getting behind the wheel of a car wasted, driving 77 in a 45 mph zone.  Failing all the field sobriety tests and blowing 2 times over the legal limit.  She was 17.  http://radaronline.com/celebrity-news/kate-chastain-dui-arrest-below-deck/

Table settings and stages of drunk, these things she knows.  She's a hypocrite calling these guests messy.  But on the other hand, the guests on the last charter who didn't drink, she made fun of them, too.  So, tell us, Kate:  What precisely is the perfect level of drunk for your taste?

This! Lee looked so bored.  At dinner and at the 'disco', chin in hand, so bored.  I'm surprised he didn't make the effort to re-direct the guests to do something other than sit in that lame room.  Isn't redirecting and making sure the guests are entertained Kate's job?

She's also on Facebook.  I honestly thought she was a lot older than it appears now that I've looked at her fb posts and pictures.  On fb she also blamed the 'reality' show for how she comes off, like they wanted drama and she was giving it to them.  I don't think anyone can act that good!  She must be so embarrassed now that it's out there.
