0:00Ben Mandelker: We optimize hydration, movement, supplements, and sleep. But most people completely ignore the air they're breathing. And when your air is off, your body feels it first. The Blue Signature Air Purifiers by Blue Air quietly remove airborne pollutants, odors, smoke, and allergens, supporting deeper sleep, better recovery, and clearer focus. It's the most customizable air purifier you can get, with exclusive accessories designed to fit your space and your style. Visit BlueAir.com and use code SIGNATURE30 to elevate your wellness routine. When people talk about energy, recovery, and performance, they usually jump straight to training, protein, or supplements.

0:37But one of the most overlooked pieces is gut health. If your gut is not dialed, everything else struggles to work the way it should. That is where Momentous Fiber Plus comes in. When gut health is not dialed in, other supplements and training habits don't work as well. You can be doing everything else right, but without a strong foundation, results fall short. Fiber is often the missing link. That's why Momentus believes in a relentless commitment to fundamentals and doing them differently than they have ever been done. Fiber Plus is built to support the entire gut health process, not just one piece of it.

1:54Well, hello and welcome to Watch What Happens. This is part two of a two-part recap. If you're like, hey, wait a minute, I didn't hear part one. Guys, it's because we put out a lot of recaps. Go back and listen to part one, okay? It's before this one. Bye. Enjoy the show.

2:12Ben Mandelker: So there's wax everywhere and Jason sees it. And he's like, oh, terrible. And then Ben is in the galley and he, Jenna comes in. He's like, there she is. What's going on, my little doll face? Sleep alright, my alabaster queen? Jenna's like, well, with your laugh inside my head, that's how I sleep in. It's like, baby, be the first to bed eat hearts, babe. So Jenna goes around and she sees that everything's a mess and she's mad and she's like, what the fuck? Mike and Alicia, all they need to do is file instructions and I feel like I'm the only one that actually gets and I'm supposed to have these days with red hunts, but right now I'm handcuffed to a tweety-dum-a-tweedle-dum-a.

2:56So she goes to the crew mess And Mike and Joao are sitting there And she's like What time did you go to bed, Mac? He's like Twelve Twelve But it's about six And she's like No, but I'm just asking Because the butt's a mess But I only had an hour's break Well, I only had an hour's break too We're all dead We're running on empty What are you arguing with me? I'm just saying That you got to Initiative to deathlands, Mac

3:18Ben Mandelker: Jenna, don't start Because you've literally had no sleep Oh, that's how I feel in the morning when I wake up at a dirty ball. But there's more people on this boat than just me. Whatever. Okay, Jenna, what a great morning, guys. Great morning. Great start. Great start. People are sleeping, Mike. What the hell? Great start. So in the morning, later in the morning, Joao and Daisy are hugging. She's like, I'm tired. He's like, I'm tired, too. She's like, oh, God, we're so hot. We're so warm. We're meant to be together. And we find out Jason gets a text that Ben is going to have a new mommy. The oven is ready.

3:54Ben Mandelker: So Daisy's saying hello to Jenna. And Jenna's, you know, of course, announcing that the deck was – everything was a mess on the boat. And nothing was cleaned up. There was wax everywhere. And there were champagnes that were still open and everything. So outside, Eddie's bitching to the guys. Mike is bitching to the guys. And he's like, Jenna comes in. She's like, I've asked you to do last night. years here initiative and i'm like but i know dad a bit yesterday i've got an hour break and i've got 16 hours and you know this is child i've got my head down i'm crafted i'm crafted you're still complaining meanwhile alicia's got a boyfriend no one no one ever cares about the boyfriend when do people start to care about the boyfriend that's what i want to know daisy can just sense that mike is just nattering away somewhere so she calls him into the crew mess she's like mike you're gonna help me the boat's a fucking mess there are shit tons of cutlery to put away like but i just put all the cutlery away upstairs no you didn't i'm not a baby Daisy.

4:45Ben Mandelker: I'm just seeing. I know what I'm doing. She's like, Mike, the boat's a fucking mess. But honestly, if I had time to get the job, well then, what's all the cutlery doing here then? Well, I didn't finish the job. But you just said, but you put the cutlery away, Mike. No, no. The cutlery and the boat, like a film being used like an easy target for people to go, why is that not done? Why is that not done? But even this morning I woke up and the first genesis, why isn't that done? Because it's not done, Mike. God, these people, how they argue. It's like, but I did it. No, you didn't. Yes, I did. But it's right there.

5:15I literally see it. Because I didn't do it. But that's what I'm saying.

5:20Ben Mandelker: Nuh-uh. That's what I'm saying. I love the way Daisy just parades him. She's just so exasperated. She's like, well, talk about all this, okay? But I'm fucking fuming about the way the boat was left. I don't care about the cutlery and the boat. I just want it clean. He's like, but I'll get all the cutlery. Thank you, appreciate the boat. God. So now Alicia comes to Daisy. It's like, oh, how are you? Listen, the boat was a mess this morning. and she's like oh man i can't tell you how overwhelmed i felt with the listener i had that my boyfriend was calling me it's like oh god let's listen i left you in a good state though like all you had to do there was no there was no plates i mean there was just like you had no plates left to clean or cutlery or anything and she's like oh oh god are you gonna cry i'm gonna cry crying and yachting and she's like oh i definitely can't do i just can't do any more than i could do and I felt like I was crawling myself into bed.

6:10Ben Mandelker: I said, okay, okay, okay. Go get a coffee and take a minute. So Daisy's like, well, I don't know what the fuck happened last night, but I really want to see that Alicia is about, I see that Alicia is about to crack and I need her to keep working. I'm a firm believer you have to change your management style for the individual. And Alicia is quite sensitive. So I'm nice to her. I let her get the coffee. But Mike is an idiot. So I just yell at him. And that works a lot better. Because with Mike speaking to me in that manner, no siree, I will not be having it. well you know you got to change your management style for everybody so for mike i yell at him like this mike and then for alicia i yell at her like this alicia you see big days so now it's omelets and the seven omelet orders and ben's like oh is that it i was expecting 12 12 omelets daisy we're going to do okay we're right now okay ready ready boo boo this is beautiful Hudson Valley duck breast and a chickpea spice patty.

11:15Ben Mandelker: What a sweet, adorable puffer fish. You know, last week we had this real drag queen of a puffer fish, but this is just like your friendly, you know, Wallace Shawn puffer fish. Who's like, hello there. I think it's just the same puffer fish. It's just last week it was shy. So it was like, I'm just, I'm just someone with lips. You want to look at me? It was like kind of passing by like, oh, and this time it sees the camera again. It's like, hi, it's me and the puffer fish. I'm so glad you're back to see me. God, thank God you're not boring. It's even got like a little tongue. Look at that. It's so cute.

11:46Ben Mandelker: It really is. I love it. And I just, yeah, I think it's just adorable. This is basically, it's out of drag now. It's like after the show. It's like, oh my God, did you guys see the show? It was amazing. I got so many tips. It's like, I know I'm really cute, but you guys, this is really hard work. I have to shave every day. The five o 'clock shadow is insane. Like, it looks like it has like stubble. It does sort of look like it has stubble. Because I was just about to say it has a Jennifer Tilly energy. But now that I see the stubble, I think it's not. It's just always waxing. But it's just, it's so happy.

12:11Ben Mandelker: It's a Lebanese fish. It's like, I'm a Lebanese fish past 40. I have to wax every single day or I look like this. But you know what? It doesn't mean we can't make out. Get over here. Great time. Great time. Just smile. It's a cute fish. Now look at this sad one. This one's like, I'm so beautiful, but no one loves me. Well, there's all these goldfish. Yeah. And then there's this gigantic redfish with blotches all over it. And it's like, I just want to fit in. Someone's like, there's orangefish over there. Go to the orangefish. It's like, God, I feel huge here. I just wish I had a peer group that respected me.

12:47Ben Mandelker: Oh, my, my, so. The orange, the little goldfish is like, listen, you just have to find someone who loves you. You just need to find that one, okay? You just need to find that one. This one's gossiping. It's like, oh my God, that, hey, listen, you want to hear something about the orange fish? They're all orange. She's a bitch. But which one? The orange one. They're all orange. Total bitch, I'm telling you. I really can't hear this right now. I'm just, I'm just having a very rough day. I appreciate you trying to raise my spirits, but I don't know. I'm just working so hard on my body. I just can't quite get to my goals.

13:20Ben Mandelker: All right. Well, you try and share some gossip and you're not listening. I'm just leaving you now. Goodbye. Oh, it's always such a downer. Always. My favorite fish, the lying down shark. The lying down shark. The lazy shark. This is the second time we've seen the lazy shark. It's just sitting on the beach. It's like, oh, you know what? You know what? I want the lazy shark to get with the sad, beautiful fish because they're both like, what is life? They're both just in a sad state. It's like, oh, God, it's always such a rat race. Or should I call it a tuna race? Am I right? The lazy shark's like, I'm going to eat you.

13:54It's like, well, you'd have to catch me first, wouldn't you? I would. Why don't you just come down here and lay down? I would. Okay. Don't worry. I know it's dark, but I've got nightlights for eyes. So just come down here. Relax.

14:05Ben Mandelker: Oh, but aren't you afraid I would just embarrass you down there? I mean, I'm really not meant to be there. I'll just stay here in the dark and I'll just bask in the reflected glory of all this beautiful little goldfish. Listen, I know you want me. I've got washboard gills. Okay. I've been working these gills out. Look at those washboard gills. You could literally do laundry on these. Why would you ever be interested in me? I don't even have a single gill. Do these spots make me look fat? Do you want to hear some gossip about the goldfish told me? Okay. So then we go over to, oh, wow. this is a stingray right you know i can't really tell what it is it it looks like a ray but it also kind of looks like it might be a weird shark or because it's not just a triangle that's not just and it's like stingrays we're not just triangles yeah they're changing it they're like into body positivity now is that like weirdly shaped and look it has dots all the way around its rim i know it's like pearls yeah it went to michael's it's like eyes added some but it looks very concerned It looks like it just walked in on its parents having sex.

15:10It's like, um, today is off to a bad start. You guys, every party I'm invited to, they're asking me to open the bottles. It is. I'm just, I feel used. I feel so used.

That's a cute fish. Yeah. It does not want to be seen. He's got one patch of hair left on the front. It's like, just shave your head, uncle. Just shave your head.

25:18Ben Mandelker: If you don't want to be on camera, why are you hanging around the set? This is prom right here. All these sharks. Oh, now we finally prom is around. All these different kinds of sharks from different schools. They're like, yes, we finally get to share our prom because we all go to small private schools. Yeah. Small private. Like the boys school and the girls school finally have prom. Yes, we've got two sharks. It looks like there may be like a tuna in there or something. There's like this redfish is like in the mix. Like there's all these fish getting busy up here. Yeah. And that's it ends with sharks like getting along.

25:48Sharks from different neighborhoods. And I think that's what we need to take from this, guys.

25:51Ben Mandelker: Look, and even our laying down shark even got up. You can see because of the gills, the washboard gills. He was like, I made love to an orange fish with blue spots, and now I'm alive. Fish report, fish report. This has been the fish report.

26:13Okay, so Jason sits back down to read some feedback cards. All right, here it is. The primary, Micah. Overall experience, five stars. Daisy was amazing. Are these comic cards the best comic cards? Damn, now that's a conundrum. By the way, Alicia's stupid. She smells weird. And I don't want to fuck a marshmallow. I'm going to have to talk about that.

26:36Ben Mandelker: All crew, all crew, tip meeting. Okay, charter number three. Ben, honestly, a six-course meal. Well done. Whoever's on night shift, I noticed pizza and stuff on the table. It's not acceptable. and i think you guys need to step up so the total tip was 28 000 and uh then of course he gives the helmet pizza out she left pizza and that's crazy that's insane that's the easiest thing to clean just put the throw it in the trash yeah it's like but i wanted people to eat it he's like rats look what the fuck put it away i mean i get if you're like i don't get it because you never go to sleep if you're up all single night getting that list done you get it done and then And you say, I'm exhausted.

27:15I can't work today. Bye. Something. But get your list done. So, no, I don't get that. But even if you did a lot of this and then went to bed, but you didn't do any of it. You didn't do any of the work.

27:25Ben Mandelker: Yeah, this is crazy. So, Jason gives the helmet to Alicia. And he's like, don't leave stuff out for the guests. Stop leaving things out like a little rant. So, Mike's like, I'm glad it wasn't me again. I'm like, that's because you already have a helmet. Yeah. so um now it's going to be time to go out but they have to do the boat so this is where ben is like oh babes please clean this babes all right uh sweet tart sweet tart saliva all right i'll give you a late day tomorrow she's like um all right baby thank you she's like i guess okay and then we see him just pouring himself a gigantic glass of wine and he calls daisy he's like baby can i please take the guest quarters i'm just knackered i've had like four hours of sleep the last three nights i just can't take i need a bubble bath and a lot god damn it so he goes he gets himself into a robe pours a big glass of wine and he is just like what is the life of riley is that what they call it and um ellie is just like scrubbing this got it got there was a there was a woman who uh looked just like riley but it wasn't riley and she she got mad at me this weekend because i standing like she like she was like why are you standing so close to her why are you standing so close to her at we're at this concert and i was like i'm gay i'm not trying to do anything we're at a concert and people just pushed us up yeah i got pushed up into into this person she's like but why you gotta stand i'm just saying you're standing awfully close to her i was like i'm gay and i agree i don't want to be in someone's personal space because that means that they're in my personal space i'm i'm shoved into her right now what do you want me to do yeah so fuck off lady but if it happened real riley i would have been like yes you're the best icon but like you were got it riley i'm close to you got it fake right i won't hear it um so ben uh he is probably this one ellie has there's a huge galley that's just a total mess and i mean she's just slaving away in there everyone else on the boat is done with their work and she is still cleaning and cleaning and cleaning and cleaning and cleaning and it just sucks for her like it's just not right i mean if i were ben i would like you but you better be paying for her dinner tonight you better be doing something yeah right right or you should just be helping out in the first place um so everyone else is done for the day and they just keep cutting between ellie cleaning and ben like making a bubble bath with classical music playing and just luxuriating and so ellie finally goes to bed and daisy's getting ready to go out and she's like oh but you know i just see him and And I'm working ass off.

30:02I see Ben and Pathrobe just walking out the door. So I've been cleaning up again on my entire... You know what? I'm being exploited. I'm being exploited.

30:12Ben Mandelker: Cleaning part of the job. And we're one team and we work together. We work together equally hard. I'm already at my limits. Just managing all of his mood swings. And for him to leave me to work on my own. Instead of being able to merge genetics with Joao. Is very close to pushing me over the edge. i'm doing my best to remain professional this is like oh i can see you're you're wearing then okay i love it's very subtle so i'm glad you can glad you can see it tastes like i think i'm picking up here i know you might be wearing dance like i'm going to kill ben in his sleep that stupid you know you may be getting angry so alicia now just has this decides it's time to call her boyfriend so she calls and he's like hello she goes like hi darling just want to say that I love you and I was thinking of you.

30:58Ben Mandelker: He's like, that's very nice. And there are a few things that I should probably talk to you about in terms of what life is like on the boat and stuff. He's like, what? Oh, no, no, no, nothing. It's just, I think, well, you know, because I'm quite flirty character and like, you know, I would never ever do anything, right? And he's like, are you saying something else? No, no, no. I'm just saying, you know, they know that if I flirt with them, that we're just having like quick banter, but like, you know, I'm just like, nothing would ever happen, just so you know, nothing would ever happen. It's like, probably like, what the fuck?

31:34Yeah, it's like, well, it sounds like you're saying stuff, but not saying stuff. It's like, no, but yeah, I'm not just trying to make it sound worse than it is, but you know, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, up the nose, took it up the nose, had a wiener up my nose, but it's nothing serious, really. Just someone stuck their wiener in my ear and my nose took it in all my facial holes, except my mouth. It wasn't my mouth. every other no big deal i'm just trying to say he's like uh i'm just trying to reel in i guess

32:02Ben Mandelker: what i'm trying to say is i've squashed every every bit of like anyone else's thought processes behind it what are you saying and jenna's listening to the whole thing and she's like oh my god what am i listening to alicia straight up lying through her teeth i feel kind of bad the poor boy doesn't even know what he's doing man Commercials, here comes one right now.

Probably chasing people all the time. I'm sure you've got plenty of restraining orders against you. People like you don't need to chase. You need to learn how to keep 30 feet behind.

33:42Ben Mandelker: yeah so they're all sitting there at their big table and then ben's like la come sit with me be away from those boys it's almost like this thing like well i know you cleaned up for me today so your reward is that you get to sit next to me i'm like okay great thanks so jason is on the yacht and he sees that alicia has left the helmet there uh-oh yeah uh-oh she should be fired for that that's bad i've been patient all episode with her but this is to just be like oh yeah i don't have to wear the helmet no yeah you're fired now yeah like like i'm kind of done with her at this point yeah so he um he he's like not happy about that and now eddie and jenna are sitting next to each other and eddie's like so do you like guys who wear rings she's like yeah i wish i had more manly hands yeah it's a big insecurity for me used to be my legs you know she's just like oh Yeah, what everybody wants to hear.

34:40Like the guy's insecurities. I know. I've hated my hands. Used to also hate my legs. Sure glad I played rugby, though. It's like, shut up, you wuss.

34:49Ben Mandelker: Yeah, I think she dodged a bullet with this whole thing. And she's like, I hate my hands. It's like, yeah, well, when we're married in 20 years, you're not going to care. She's like, oh. So she's like kind of warming up to him. She's like, well, he said he hated his hands and bars. I like my balls. So she's feeding him spaghetti. and um then alicia's like well um i want to try your pizza she's like okay and she's like yours is better something like that they're like flirting it's like this three-way flirt between food he's like eating some of like he starts flirting with alicia right in front of jenna and he starts eating some of her pizza and jenna's like are you fucking kidding me i didn't need such a just bloody well be the girl like is it worth it for me fighting at this point and so she's like whatever So Jenna just gets up and goes to the other side of the table and sits down with, like, Ben and Joao or all of them and is, like, laughing and having a much better time.

35:42He's like, you're so sweet. You know that? You're just so sweet, sugar loves. I mean, you look beautiful right now. She's like, bye, Charlotte. And Eddie's bummed now. He just doesn't get it. He's like, I'm just confused. And that's fine. You're fucking this up. You fuck it up every time. Yeah. You can't just flirt with everybody at the table. Like, I get it. You're desperate. Okay? And you never get this attention before. but you got you if you get attention from one person to save it you greedy you greedy wuss

36:09Ben Mandelker: yeah seriously why are you acting so surprised so then um jason uh shows up and he's got the helmet he's like like oh my god look who it is it is person whose genetics i might want to merge with if nothing work out with joe so then he's like never in the history of the helmet has it ever been left behind i mean guys come on now what's he doing and she's like oh yeah whatever she doesn't she's like sorry so he puts it on her head and leaves and then um they go uh wipe again i would have fired her just to get it out there so because also he had to go down to your stupid dinner place this is the captain you know he wants to be watching real housewives of salt lake city right now he's obsessed he watched one episode so like everybody else he's got to watch all the seasons now.

36:54We don't have time for this.

36:56Ben Mandelker: So now they all go off to a club and Ben's dancing with Jenna and Eddie's like, you know, alone and Ben's like, after such a grave breakup, well, I spent$50 ,000 on a wedding I didn't attend. Oh, God. I've entered this season wanting all avoidance of romance. And you know, that's going to be difficult for me, being a romantic at heart, being someone who bobs in his chair during his interviews. But Jenna and I do have some chemistry for sure and it's actually quite refreshing to be evaluated by the opposite six. I'm just getting my mojo back. Okay,

37:32so now Ben and Jen are getting drinks. Drow's dancing with Daisy and he's like, I'm so sweaty. She's like, oh, I'm so sweaty. He's like, but I'm sweatier. No, I'm sweatier. No, I'm definitely sweatier. You're pretty sweaty. You are pretty sweaty. Or as they say in Zim, sweaty. Zimwety. So she's like, the more time I spend with Drow, the more he's more attractive. But But, you know, I fall in love with my friends. And I've got to do that because I start losing friends because I fall in love and it's horrible and I break up. And I only fall in love with terrible people, which means it's terrible, which means this has got to be toxic.

38:04And he's sweaty. I'm in.

38:07Ben Mandelker: So Mike and Ellie are dancing and he's like, you're bad news, which I hate that so much. I hate when guys say that to girls. Oh, you're bad news. Because it's always you're the one who's the bad news. This is like you're like war telling NBC News you're bad news. No, you're the war. You're the problem here. Okay. Yeah. And just, it's just so like, ooh, dirty girl. Hey, you bad, bad, bad girl. He's like, Larry from three, it's company constantly like some seventies gross guy. Polyester and Amar. Seriously. So Eddie, Mike, Jenna, they all get into their vans. Now, but tool is, but tool does nothing this episode, by the way.

38:51Ben Mandelker: She's just asleep back there. And so Mike is like, Eddie, Eddie, Eddie, you're going to go to South America with me? You can look all sexy with the fucking Latinas, right? And Eddie's like, yeah, not nearly the same as them South African girls. He's trying to flirt with Jenna because Jenna's sitting in the backseat. And she's like, whatever. She's all drunk now. And he's like, well, I just said that in the benefit of you. And she goes, no, listen, I'm not stupid. And at the same time, Eddie, I know you're drunk and whatever. And I don't understand the part. He's like, but I think you like Eddie.

39:24If you like Eddie, admit to it. Let's just try and make it work. Let's try and make it work for you and Eddie.

39:30Ben Mandelker: Yeah, because the thing is that Mike now feels guilty for gossiping because Jenna had told him either this episode or last episode that there's zero chance for Eddie anymore. So he's like, no, now I've realized I've sort of impacted things, whatever. So now he's like, no, I think you might like Eddie. And so Eddie is like, yeah, I like Jenna. That's me admitting it right now. and jenna's like you messaged my roommate and i loved this moment for her because eddie is like oh but i was taking the pictures oh you're taking the piss did you not say i dropped jenna like it's hot in order to get with you he's like i didn't say that she's like you didn't say it it's like no i didn't say it's like i know the words i read the text messages yeah it's like i read it you don't so they were cast because we had a whole conversation about it she put it in words to manipulate the whole thing because she actually likes you and you like her and that's the fucking issue and you put me in the middle and i'm not gonna bear anybody's revenge i'm not gonna bear that so shut up just shut up you stupid that was nice that was good because he's such an idiot he's like what i never even said that you're not getting laid and get your little muppet friend to turn around too because mike's just like leaning over the seat yeah how are we gonna make this week turn around and eddie like doesn't even have like even a defining quality that would make like even embarking on a toxic relationship like this be worth it if that makes sense like you know like if it's like a super super hot guy i'm not saying i'm not i'm never gonna advocate for someone to go into a toxic relationship but i can imagine being like yeah but you know he's hot so well yeah you're like oh they're really funny like he doesn't like he doesn't even have anything like like he doesn't have like a defining category that makes any of this worth it and she's like just get away from me like i don't want to like no you are not the one who drops me in a second i drop you in a second like what are you talking about you are like you're like playing mario and super mario brothers 2 it's just like the boring character we need the princess or luigi yeah boo boo boo eddie well fun episode everybody we will be back tomorrow with some summer house summer housing okay everybody thanks so much for being here we'll talk to you later bye watch what crappens would like to thank it's premium sponsors ain't no thing like alison king our way is the amber way it's the foster and the furious it's amanda foster it's always automatic with ashley auto Put your hands together for Carly Clapp.
