#3361 Below Deck Down Under S04E15 Part One: Battle Barbie

In short

Below Deck Down Under S04E15 Part One (“Battle Barbie”) focuses on escalating crew conflict in the galley/crew mess (shrimp incident, gaslighting accusations, Daisy vs. Ellie) and the arrival of a new stew, “Barbie,” whose past with Fraser and her “trouble” reputation set up future drama. Guests also go fishing, including a wahoo catch moment.

Guests (backgrounds)

No specific guest identities are named in the transcript; they’re described as “normal lovely wholesome light people,” with at least one guest couple reacting to the wahoo catch.

Key claims

Daisy is furious after Ellie grabs shrimp from her during dinner service; Ellie and Daisy trade accusations and rumors; Jenna and Eddie discuss Jenna’s hot-tub/relationship tensions; Barbie is framed as intimidating (especially her eyebrows) and potentially a troublemaker who will “back up” Jenna/Daisy’s side.

Notable examples

“Shrimp in glass” argument; “gaslighting” in stairwell/crew mess; Barbie’s flashback meltdown as Fraser’s chief stew; wahoo catch with guests joking about “no wahoo” (Italian reference).

So come to one of those. It's going to be great. Okay? You get your tickets at WatchWhatCrapens.com. Today, Below Deck Down Under, Season 4, Episode 15. It's not about the shrimp.

4:14Ben Mandelker: But it is about something very exciting, which is today is the birthday of a real housewife and a TV icon, a sitcom icon. Can you take a guess?

4:24Ronnie Karam: How did you grow as the only sitcom icon?

4:27Ben Mandelker: Oh, you would be incorrect. There's actually someone who's a true sitcom icon who was a real housewife, and her name is Miss Kim Fields. Today is her birthday. Oh. The other birthdays so far, not quite as good. Tony Hawk, who cares? Rami Malek, Jason Biggs. That's fine. Stephen Baldwin, for those who care. Oh, Emilio Estevez, which is weird because I got an email from someone named Emilio Estevez yesterday, but it was not the Emilio Estevez. And I thought, that's funny. Imagine getting an email from Emilio Estevez. And then today is his birthday. Steve Wynwood. Okay. It's shaping up. it's a george carlin kind of a d-list birthday it's not as it's like these are like good stars but they're not like stars that get me excited i mean burt bacharack is today okay boner that's the name of our side podcast katherine hepburn katherine hepburn okay boner but it's

5:29Ronnie Karam: not like fun katherine hepburn's a good one katherine hepburn's a good one i mean they You should put Catherine Hepburn above Stephen Baldwin. I mean.

5:38Ben Mandelker: Well, it's chronologically. I'm just going through it. But Emily Van Camp. Oh, wait. That's pretty good. Revenge, right? She's the revenge lady.

5:48Ronnie Karam: Yeah. What happened to her? But like. Does she still do? Yeah, I don't know. I think it was just revenge. I don't know. Didn't she marry the hot guy from Revenge and that was it? She's like, I'm done. I've made it with Revenge and I'm done. You know, every time I see Hannah from Below Deck, I think of Emily Van Kemp. She looks just like her to me. She does look just like her. I always imagine Hannah in Revenge. Revenge. Ooh, Hannah's here to get her revenge. Ooh.

6:12Ben Mandelker: Ooh, well, that's actually a great segue going back into Below Deck because we are here obviously talking Below Deck Down Under. And you mentioned that there's two trailers. One of the trailers is for Below Deck Med. And that's going to be the next one that comes on to Bravo, which is interesting because that was also the previous one. So I just assumed regular Below Deck would be coming next. But I'm just going to surmise here that, you know, Fraser had the very scary heart attack situation. And so I imagine maybe they delayed production while he recuperated. I'm not, I mean, I'm not sure. So they probably were like, let's get an emergency Below Deck med season on the books because this is the second time that's actually happened.

6:58Ben Mandelker: I think the other time was when they had everything go down with below deck sailing and they're like, we've got to cobble together a below deck med season right away because they know they can just print and play that one. Get Captain Sandy, get Asha, put them together on a boat and go.

7:14Ronnie Karam: Yeah. Well, that's what they get for getting rid of below deck adventure.

7:19Ben Mandelker: Yeah. Yeah. I mean, honestly, can we bring back sailing and adventure? Like, I'm not. Why can't we have those back? Like, yes, Gary was disgusting, but he's gone now. Put that sailboat back in the waters and see what happens.

7:33Ronnie Karam: There's got to be other douchebags who know how to work a sail. Yeah. I don't know. I would think. I don't know. But who knows? Right now, we're concerned with below deck, down under. It's a big day today. Lots of things happened today. Lots of tables turned today. We get our new stew, and Jenna just really blows it. So let's get going.

7:53Ben Mandelker: it jenna blows it blows wow a season wow we were on we were rooting for you we were all rooting

8:00Ronnie Karam: for you yeah well um the guests are eating dinner it's 9 22 and we go to the crew mess and daisy and ellie are what wait it's 9 22 i thought it for sure was 9 23 yeah it's very specific 922 so we know something's very dramatic because it's not 925 wait that this one is not a gag

9:45Ben Mandelker: Mask for mask, please. It's fun. Hell yes.

9:49Ronnie Karam: So now people are eating dinner, and Daisy and Ellie are fighting in the mess. And this is because Ellie grabbed shrimp out of Daisy's hand, and Daisy went crazy. And now she's mad at Ellie, but she's got these two 80s pigtails in, uneven. and she looks insane and ellie's trying to gaslight her but daisy is also losing her temper and does look insane so it's like the perfect time to gaslight somebody when they already look crazy

10:17Ben Mandelker: you know yeah yeah i mean daisy really looks like she is a um like she's she's like not a main character but like a guest character who plays one of the friends of the daughters on just the 10 of us. Like she just knocks on the door like, hi, you're ready to come play in the park? It's like, dad, can I go play in the park with Daisy? Like she definitely has that like 1989 look. And the dad's like,

10:45Ronnie Karam: I'm not letting her play with that girl. She can't even get her pigtail straight.

10:49Ben Mandelker: I brought shrimp for us though to put in glasses. Your dad took my shrimp. Dad, can I play shrimp in glasses with Daisy please? Okay.

11:02Ronnie Karam: Calm down a little bit. You're getting very intense. Look at me, high-pitched Ellie, which means I'm being either very, very nice or very, very tricky. You decide. And Daisy's like, yeah, just grab shrimp out of my hand during dinner service, and now you're telling me that that's your job when I was trying to help?

11:22Ben Mandelker: No, because you are struggling to put it in two sides. Oh, my goodness. Like, little poor Daisy can't put shrimp in glass. the simplest thing you put shrimp down on side the glass but you couldn't do it so I was helping

11:34Ronnie Karam: it is so hard to deal with somebody who has not realized that they are no longer capable of putting shrimp on glass god bless daisy everyone pray for daisy fruit stand it's like

11:47Ben Mandelker: old yugoslavian nursery rhyme shrimp in glass shrimp in glass put the shrimp in the glass nice if you can't oh well you're a fucking bitch god i love that song

12:04Ronnie Karam: gaslighting left and right fucking center on fucking rail so she walks off she's like no need to be so intense okay lady who just ran up 80 000 stairs a couple of weeks ago through the guests to yell at captain uh jason that you were being tortured in a galley

12:23Ben Mandelker: Ellie no need to be this intense Now excuse me while I make A five stage Lemon meringue Cheesecake for a guy I kind of like

12:34Ronnie Karam: Don't be so intense So that's not going well So Daisy and Alicia are in the stairwell And Daisy's like she keeps this shit up I'm telling ya shall be fucking fired Next So It's just like Survivor If you want to get somebody out today, you better get them out today because everything's going to change tomorrow. If you don't get them out while you have the chance, it is not going to happen. And there was a twist. There was a survivor twist and things changed. And nowadays you can't just get her out. You see?

13:07Ben Mandelker: God, it was so good last week. What an episode. It was so good last week. What an episode. It really was.

13:14Ronnie Karam: It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappens commercial. Lately, I've been more intentional about what I wear day to day, and I'm leaning into pieces that feel easy and comfortable, but still put together. It just makes getting dressed simpler. Quince has been my go-to. The fabrics feel elevated, the fits are clean, and everything just works without needing to overthink it.

13:38Ben Mandelker: Quince has all the wardrobe staples for spring. Think 100 % European linen shorts and shirts from$34. Lightweight, breathable, and comfortable, but still look put together and clean in 100 % Pima cotton tees with a softness that has to be felt, Ronnie.

13:53Ronnie Karam: Their pants also hit that same balance, relaxed and comfortable, but still polished enough to wear pretty much anywhere.

14:00Ben Mandelker: Everything is priced 50 % to 80 % less than what you'd find at similar brands. And Quince works directly with ethical factories and cuts out the middlemen, so you're getting premium materials without the markup. Let me tell you something. That Mongolian cashmere sweater that I got from Quince, that is like a real icebreaker at parties. Because when people ask me about that sweater, I'm like, oh, I got it at Quince. They're like, oh, my God, I have one from Quince, too. And then we bond. You actually would never think a Mongolian cashmere sweater could be such a bonding thing. But it is a lovely, luxurious item.

15:33Ben Mandelker: okay so kim uh upstairs uh this lady kim is like if i could survive off of only one kind of food i think it would be the potato they all laugh um and then we go back like kim because i you know

15:48Ronnie Karam: generally i like people if we share stances on potatoes like i found that to be like a a genuine a genuine truth with people if we like the same kind of potatoes or if we're at dinner and someone's like, oh my God, the potatoes are so good. And I think the potatoes are good. Usually I really like that person. But Kim, Kim's the one who was like, my hair is frizzy. What am I, Monica from Friends? So now I'm having to rethink my whole stance on potato camaraderie, you know?

16:18Ben Mandelker: Yeah, I think she like found that like potatoes are kind of the thing that people like. And she's like, I'm gonna lean into that. I'm gonna make America love me. I'm gonna get a spinoff. so in the daisy i'm sorry in the galley i'm gonna manipulate people who normally wouldn't like me

16:33Ronnie Karam: into liking me because i like potatoes yeah that's kim i'm kim where my monica from france

16:41Ben Mandelker: i'm kim on this charter of actually very nice people i gotta be the nicest so ellie is like daisy just attacked me he's like oh really about what well she said i did not have the right to grab shrimp out of our hands and she is offended by my actions and so so jenna uh is like listening she's like trying to listen in but batul is like where's the sponge this was the sponge where did the sponge go where is the sponge like the tool she's clearly

17:13Ronnie Karam: now you know how i feel sponge sponge sponge where's sponge she just yelled at me the crew mess about it, and I don't think it's appropriate yelling at me about shrimp. He's like, no, no, it's not. Very, very inappropriate. Where is she now? Bad girl. Bad girl. And he's telling us, attack. That's a very large word. I didn't know if anyone was capable of verbally attacking people other than Ellie.

17:41Ben Mandelker: It's not that I don't trust her, but I'm skeptical. Can you blame me? And just to emphasize the point, I'm going to cross my arms and rock back and forth in my confessional chair. Ah, rock-a-bye, Vinny. So then it's like, all right. Well, I'll be having a word with her, okay? I appreciate that. But also, we don't want a war. How dare you? You know what I went through. So then we go to Daisy and Alicia in the stairwell again. And Daisy's like, I mean, what kind of gaslighting is that? To ask me a question and go, don't be so intense, Daisy. Oh, everyone just needs to back off. Alicia's like, maybe we should go to the laundry room.

18:21Ben Mandelker: Yes. Why are you going that direction, Alicia? I actually don't know where the laundry room is. Oh, good Lord.

18:28Ronnie Karam: We are a team, me and you, Ben, right? He's like, yeah, we're definitely a team, my little butterscotch bile duct. And I will take care of this for you. I don't want you to worry about it. Right? Team. Me and you. Ellie. Ben. Team. So then back to the laundry room, Daisy's like, what just happened when I left the golly there? Jenna's like, well, I was trying to airstrop, but Batool was trying to talk to me at the same time. She wanted something about a sponge. I think I was mad that she had a sponge. Something like that.

18:58Ben Mandelker: Batool is living in her, she's living in her own world. And we see Batool, like, trying to put her covers on and, like, her feet are, like, caught in it. She's like, sponge, sponge, sponge. So then, in the laundry room, Daisy's like, I am in shock over what happened. Yeah, she's making her look like you're saying about the shrimp. I think I agree with what you're saying. And like, you're encroaching on my team, and you're being a mean girl to Alicia, and you're sending out crazy rumors.

19:27Ronnie Karam: She literally did the same thing to me. She was saying that Jenna was being really close with Joao and flirting in the hot tub. It's Alicia. And Jenna's like, Ellie, what the fuck is wrong with your girl? Give me a fucking break.

19:42Ben Mandelker: I think she needs to get back into her fucking box. Well, thanks, girls, for supporting me and having my back. It's like, yeah, I called you a chat, and you do the other way, and I have to say, I don't know what you're saying anymore, so let's just hug.

19:57Ronnie Karam: I'll just assume it's supportive. All right. So now we go to Eddie and Joao in the crew mess, and Eddie's like, how many wines did you have with Jenna last night? He's like, well, you know, we had quite a bit of wine, that's for sure, and we had very good conversation. She's very cool. I like her as a, you know, a Zim friend. Very, very, very good friend. Just a friend. Well, to be fair, you've not done anything wrong. But, you know, I'm looking at Jenna. When I sit there, I'm like, oh, brilliant. You want to go sit in a hot tub with another bloke? It's not nice to see. And with the whole bit, what is she, a car?

20:28Ronnie Karam: I'm looking at Jenna. I was thinking of buying that, you know. I was looking at her, but, God, the safety features. I mean, you hit a speed bump, your wheel falls off. Who wants to drive that? I'm rethinking this whole purchase. The car already drove away from you, sir. You can't afford that car. Okay?

20:43Ben Mandelker: Yeah, it's not nice to see. It's also not nice to see the guy who's claiming he's really into you texting the other girl in your department saying that he wishes if like if I weren't here, then then he would go after someone else or something like that. Or he doesn't like I'm nothing. So like, yeah, you're just going to get over it. And I am aware that this all goes out the window at the end of the episode. But I'm living in the present right now.

21:07Ronnie Karam: I'm still going to enjoy my feelings while I am allowed to have them. And that's going to end in about 15 minutes. So I'm still going to enjoy this. Eddie, she dumped you. Stop acting like she's yours and you're not being cheated on. She's not with you.

21:21Ben Mandelker: Yeah, she's not with you and you have no chance with her whatsoever. And that will remain true for a very long time.

21:27Ronnie Karam: Jenna is way too smart to even give you a chance, another chance. You fucking mullet-headed weirdo.

21:35Ben Mandelker: he's like not only has jenna cut things off with me apparently it's blatant now and she's starting to move on flirting with every other guy on the boat but me and i still like her so it's just a lot to juggle in my brain right now i'm like yeah you know why she's flirting with every other guy in the boat but you because she already tried you out and she didn't like it so she ended it so she's not flirting with you and there's only like two other guys to flirt with so don't act like she's going around the entire town i'm flirting with every single person it's just two other guys

22:03Ronnie Karam: yeah so he's like you know i wasn't happy looking at you in that hot tub and i was like who what ellie uh and he goes yeah ellie was mad and he's like well i can't be bothered being made to feel like something i'm not when i've literally said what i needed to say to each their own honestly to each their own each to their own rather each to their own it's it's a regional thing does does

22:26Ben Mandelker: zim ellie not even remember when i very clearly told her look you are a beautiful person and i enjoy beautiful people and I am sexually attracted to you, but in a way that I'm not sexually attracted to you. And I think it's best that if we call this off, but keep going, but also in a way that we're calling it off. But I would like to be friends with benefits, but with no benefits whatsoever. And it's best if we never talk to each other again, except when we talk to each other. I think we're on the same page, are we not?

22:50Ronnie Karam: I've really learned a lesson here, which is to just tell a woman, please make me a lemon meringue cheesecake and I'll fuck you after. Just kidding. You're dying alone, but thanks for the cheesecake.

23:03Ben Mandelker: so by the way i really want to make some basque cheesecake ever since yesterday when i showed

23:08Ronnie Karam: that picture so good yeah god it sounds so um and also you showed flan off yesterday and that sounds really good i want to eat some flan and then we were talking about k michelle who uh on real housewives of atlanta who had a guy texting her like he likes her buns but he literally meant no he wanted her cakes but he literally meant her bun cakes and then that made me want bun cakes basically what i'm saying is glp ones don't work forever so anybody who's like oh i'm gonna lose weight i'm gonna keep it off forever guess what that shit stops working and then what are you supposed to do take coke back up that's too expensive i'm not doing that probably have a heart attack now what am i supposed to do just you know what you're supposed to do stay hungry

23:47Ben Mandelker: forever that's it god i would also love to make a bun cake i have all these tins that i never use I never use them. Okay, so we cut to Jason, and he's checking on the guests. They're all going to go fishing tomorrow, which is exciting. And Jenna and Eddie are by the bar. By the way, last night was a big night for fishing on Bravo because they also went fishing on Top Chef.

24:13Ronnie Karam: Oh, God, I forgot to watch that. No, I did watch that. You know what? I fell asleep watching that on the plane. You didn't finish it because I turned on the screener,

24:23Ben Mandelker: and it was like midway through.

24:24Ronnie Karam: Oh, I did finish it, but I downloaded it so I could watch it on the plane. And I fell asleep in the middle. That's not a good sign.

24:31Ben Mandelker: I wasn't happy. I was not thrilled. Yeah, didn't love it. But with the outcome, I should say, the episode was great. So Jenna and Eddie are by the bar, and he's like, I like your hair like that. She's like, oh, yeah? I look like a kid. I do look like a kid with big ties. Yes. See you in the morning. okay well I think she was being pretty fun and nice to you and you're like see you in the morning bye whatever

24:59Ronnie Karam: because he wants to be sad so she'll chase him and be like are you okay he's doing the whiny boy thing it's like if that does work for you it's the wrong relationship where you have to get attention by being like I'm sad so someone will come over and be like that's not a good relationship anyway he's just so gross get out of here Eddie So you never have a chance You have no chance with Jenna Zero, zero, go to bed and remember that Until tomorrow Yeah, get out Get out

25:30Ben Mandelker: Didn't JoJo have a song called Get Out To which I say, like JoJo said, get out So Ben It's the next day And Ben is Checking on Jenna And the crew mess, he's like Oh, what's going on The poopy poopy pucker. And she's like, oh, well, I saw you a bit stressed. He's like, yes, I was a bit stressed, but I'm going to lie down right now. I sleep tight. And then we see Jason, he's on the phone and he's like talking in the bridge. He's getting ready for the day. And then Joao and Daisy, they're in their room together. And she comes out of the bathroom. She's like, hi, how are you? Me and Ellie have had a big bust up.

26:14Ben Mandelker: It was really crazy, to be honest. Have you ever been holding a shrimp and about to be putting it in a glass? And then someone takes the shrimp out of your hands and puts it in the glass for you? Well, you can understand now, huh?

26:27Ronnie Karam: Well, I'm fucking livid with her as well. I didn't go into the galley anymore because she's made it too uncomfortable. Anyway, go to sleep. Have a rest. We'll think about this. You can think about how much you wanted to touch that shrimp. And I'll think about how much I miss looking in that galley and thinking, wow, that cheesecake smells really good.

26:46Ben Mandelker: poor Joao can't go in the galley anymore. His life is over.

26:52Ronnie Karam: So now we go to Ben and Eddie talking in their room and Ben's telling him the goss that Ellie and Daisy got into it. And Eddie's like, well, I mean, it's just probably, you know, just Daisy's fucking sharing a room with Joao. You know, I'm just going to shut the fuck up because it's not my place to say, well, it's easy to say something, but it's actually easier not to say something because the aftermath is just so much worse. I mean, it's a tricky one. I've seen Ellie at a worst and it's not good. And like Daisy's an unnerving presence in the gallery. She's scary. I've really got to tread very carefully, all right, which is something I've never had to do in my life.

27:30Ronnie Karam: I actually went to my bed, grabbed the pillow, and called it Klondike Knuckles. I mean, it's really rough for me these days.

27:40Ben Mandelker: And then the pillow wrote me up. I couldn't even believe it. so now now it is the next morning i think i erroneously said that earlier and um uh joao is like well daisy do you want to snuggle and she's like well let's see maybe later and uh they're all waking up and and sort of getting into where they want to be vanod who is the dad visits jason in the bridge this guy is so cute he just stands there he's like he's like oh yeah he's like i just i don't want to be in your way i just want to stand and watch which is nice because normally whenever people go into the bridge and want to see Captain Jason do his thing, it's always someone like, oh my god, there's like so many dials.

28:21Ben Mandelker: Can I touch this one? Can I touch this one? What does that one do? Oh my god, this is like crazy, and you can read them all like, wow. And Vinod's just sitting there just like peacefully and quietly just watching.

28:34Ronnie Karam: He's like, don't worry, I just want to do regular dad things. Okay, just don't mind me. Go ahead, drive the boat. He's driving it. Are you sure you shouldn't make a right there? I think you should make a right here. Sorry. It's a dad thing. Do you think this is broken? Just dad. Just pressing buttons. I think this might be broken. Stop touching the button. God damn it. My dad still gets into my car every time I take him somewhere. He gets in my car. And he goes, why do these door handles not open outwards? Who pushes a door handle? I'm like, dad, it's been years. It's been like five years. you'll get used to it and then he starts jiggling it it's like no it should be able to pull this way and then one time he did pull it and it did open because it has like an emergency thing where you can pull it and he's like i did it i told you i told you it would pull inward people just aren't going to change that the world that dramatically this quickly like well you solved

29:29Ben Mandelker: that one yeah thanks dad you you won you won dad burst the handles although i do think he has a a good point because largely i don't i don't really understand why all the car companies are trying to innovate with handles and are like hiding them making them like vertical but they're all they're like embedded and you do all these weird things and like congratulations you know elon musk did a funky handle on the tesla we don't all have to do a funky handle i'm good with the classics give me something where i can see it i can put my hand around it like i don't i'm like I'm not that pressed about having a super smooth exterior.

30:06Ben Mandelker: Like, it's okay if I see a handle sticking out.

30:09Ronnie Karam: Or like how when you get one, or you drive a nicer car and they're like, oh, it's the you're in a Mercedes now. So we've hidden the turn signal. Yeah. It's not, it's not going to be in the normal place. Yeah. Headlights. Yeah. Those aren't going to be in a normal place. Good luck finding them. Okay. Poor person.

30:28Ben Mandelker: It's a very engineer mindset. that like engineers love everything elegant and like like clean presentation which is great but then they wind up hiding everything away from you and you're like where is it where's the thing i mean like hotels trying to find the the switches to turn off lights in a hotel that's that's the thing that's my number two pet peeve behind new door handles our hotel light switches why can't they be in intuitive places why can't they all be in the same place always every single time is it Oh, this lamp, the switch is on the lamp on the pole, but this lamp, it's down on the floor.

31:01Ben Mandelker: And this one, you have to go to a switch all the way across the room. Why do they do that to us every single time?

31:07Ronnie Karam: Every single time. Commercials, here comes one right now.

31:14Ben Mandelker: Grilling season is finally here. And let's be honest, the difference between a good cookout and a great one comes down to the quality of your meat. You can have the best grill setup in the world, but if what you're cooking isn't great, it shows. That's why I've been using ButcherBox. They deliver premium, responsibly sourced meat right to your door, so you're starting off with the good stuff every time.

31:39Ronnie Karam: ButcherBox delivers over 100 premium protein options straight to your door, from grass-fed beef to wild-caught seafood.

31:55Ronnie Karam: And especially during the grilling season, that quality really matters. Better meat means better flavor and fewer mistakes on the grill and meals that actually live up to the moment, whether it's a quick weeknight dinner or a full weekend cookout.

32:07Ben Mandelker: I have several chicken breasts in my fridge thawing as we speak from ButcherBox because I am planning to do one of my favorite dishes of all time, which is a Greek garlic and oregano grilled chicken. And so my grill better get ready for the good times that are about to happen.

I'll be here with you. And she's like, oh, my God, yes, oh, my God. And she's like, it's so difficult to be a female deckhand. Like, if you're lucky to find a position on a yacht, you prove yourself. and I can feel my anxiety level, but I'm trying to develop myself, so I'm going to do it. So it's that, wow. It's that thing they do every season where they're like, you have been chosen to hold the steering wheel while dad backs into the parallel park.

35:08Ben Mandelker: I know. You're going to sit on dad's lap and put your hands on the steering wheel. Oh, I love that. I'll be appreciated. So I was like, yes, and I'm going to be on the aft with you, and so you're going to call out. It's like, yeah, I'm ready to kill it. so then uh ben and daisy are in the sun deck and ben is like do you want to just go quickly over what the fuck is going on so i know it's like all right well the shrimp thing was weird but i was like whatever if you want to do the shrimp okay i'll let you do the shrimp i'm trying to help you and she set me she set me off by coming up to me in the front of everybody and said do we have a problem so then when i reacted she was like oh why are you so intense after she spread fucking weird but she's been so fucking weird and watching everyone in the hot tub i've had enough ben

35:56Ronnie Karam: yeah she said that she's spread all these rumors about you know the hot tub thing and he's like well i did think it was kind of out of character for you to go and rehash something there i mean generally when you like to rehash things it's to do with me when you like to come in and say oh how could you treat me like you know that sort of thing she's like well i was gonna let it all slide but what did she say to you that goddamn bitch and he's like well that you attacked her she goes oh i attacked her i attacked her oh that's rich that's rich i'm really upset about what's happened

36:29Ben Mandelker: it's not right i don't deserve it she's using dangerous buzzwords and creating a campaign against me and it's really scary to be gaslit like that she's trying to pit us two against each other ban it's like yeah well it's not gonna happen i don't think it is are you against me you're She's against me. She's against me, everyone.

36:46Ronnie Karam: Okay, Ben, you're really too easy. So now Jenna and Alicia are in the crew mess, getting to work. And in the galley, Ben is calling for eggy-waggies. Come pick up the eggy-waggies. And so people are starting to run breakfast. And Kim, guys, it's Kim, okay? She hears Daisy's accent. She's like, oh, my God, I love your accent. You know, the reason that we all know each other here is because we went to medical school in Dublin. That's right. Dublin. You know those people? You all know each other, right? Pot of gold. Pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. We waited for a rainbow. Can I tell you? All through medical school, never saw a rainbow.

37:25Ronnie Karam: I think that's why everyone's so poor. Just everyone. It's just the economy. Uppercorn economy's tanking over there.

37:33Ben Mandelker: It's just, it's so funny that you have an Irish accent, because we've been to Ireland, which is crazy. We're basically Irish ourselves. We've seen Enya's Castle. It's just right there on the side of the road. It's wild. Anyway.

37:44Ronnie Karam: Vinod the other day just ordered an Irish coffee. He must have known you were coming.

37:51Ben Mandelker: I have a question. If I say the following things, does it make you feel a certain sort of way? Where the streets have no name. Feels good, right?

38:02Ronnie Karam: Irish. Listen, I'm going to have this breakfast, and I'm going to have this breakfast with or without you.

38:13Ben Mandelker: You know what's funny? vanad tell them about the you know what's funny irish flag indian flag same colors if you think about it i mean you don't even have to think about it just look we're basically the same people right guys right i mean i know i'm the white lady here but still thank god this boat's not on a river daisy here would start clogging but when we were when ronnie and i were in ireland our tour guide uh said that the he was like the indian flag he was like oh god he's like the end the the the indians were so were so like proud of the iris that they made their flag uh like just like ours

38:50Ronnie Karam: like uh we're not sure that's true we had a tour guide making some shit up that's for sure because the original tour we we actually missed the original tour we were supposed to take and the girl who planned it for us our friend was so upset about it and we're like no no don't worry we'll find we'll find a makeup tour and so we asked the front desk and they're like oh sure we know a guy just meet him outside he'll come pick you up in his van and this guy was just making shit up left and right and everywhere we went he'd be like let me tell you this is the guinness factory let me tell you who loves it bono loves it they're all the time look at that j crew bono loves j crew he loves their khakis doesn't he god we love that guy here yeah he was like oh as i as

39:33Ben Mandelker: irish we resisted the english and the and and india was so impressed with us that they made their flag just like ours. And by the way, the top band, the Indian flag is, the colors represent like saffron, which represents sacrifice. White represents truth and purity. And the bottom is green representing faith and fertility. So I think it was -

39:55Ronnie Karam: Well, you got those all from Ireland, didn't you?

39:59Ben Mandelker: Saffron. Classic Irish spice. That was the funniest. It was the best tour. I loved it. That really was. He'd be like, wow, you know, we're good loving people, the Irish.

40:12Ronnie Karam: We love everybody the same. But the English, the streets were running with the blood of the people. And it's like, oh, my God. He kept going off on the English. And then he would always at the last second be like, but we love them now. We love them now. We're friends now. Okay.

40:30Ben Mandelker: By the way, we did see Enya's castle. And I later saw something about Enya's castle. And Brian was right. that was enya's castle he was not lying there we drove right by enya's house which is kind of cool

40:44Ronnie Karam: oh yeah i don't think he was lying it's just everything we had to do either had to do with how terrible the english people were or where bono was or what on what enya liked to do on her day off you know which was sitting around the castle she doesn't really come out of the castle we

40:59Ben Mandelker: learned yeah yeah especially because the castle's right on the main road it's like a sun's drag

41:04Ronnie Karam: castle it's on the main road so we were we left really embarrassed for anya yeah yeah daisy and alicia are in the pantry and they're looking over the new girls cv and alicia's like oh my god she looks terrifying

41:24Ben Mandelker: which is funny in retrospect when we find out who it is

41:31Ben Mandelker: so uh then we see ellie gets a text from the new girl a new girl says hey girl are you on katina i'm headed there as we speak um as long as my dad allows me i was like wow that's weird and ellie is like just have to stop at a louis store um can we make sure that this yacht is carrying pepsicola

41:51Ronnie Karam: of products thank you so much i don't even work for money i work for bags okay bags this charter i'm calling this the birkin charter

42:03Ben Mandelker: so ellie uh so then uh pack back the pack the cooler pack the cooler and the soda and the coke and champagne because guess what the guests are going fishing so the guests are going to go fishing and while they go fishing Jason has Eddie go to the dock to pick up the new stew and Ellie is talking to Ben about this and she's like, did you hear who's coming? He's like, do you know her? I said, yes, she has a good friend of mine and her jitter season, she clashed a lot with her chief stew, so good luck to Daisy! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ho ho ho ho ho ho ho

42:42Ronnie Karam: Well, I need to see a picture of her pull up her only fans, alright? I'll be the jut of this So she shows him a picture. And he's like, oh, wow, definitely very pretty. She does look like trouble. I'll say that. She looks like trouble. I said this in her first season, and I stand by it. I think it's the eyebrows. I don't know what it is. They're power eyebrows. There's something about her eyebrows that just terrify people. I don't know what it is. I'm going to take a picture of them and go get my eyebrows waxed to look exactly the same way. I want to intimidate everybody. because like everybody who sees her picture is like oh my god she's terrifying and i can't figure out what it is the only thing i can see that stands out to me are the eyebrows so i'm getting

43:26Ben Mandelker: them and i still i still also believe that it was her who who took what you said about fraser and brought it back to anthony the chef i made anthony mad at fraser on that last i don't know

43:42Ronnie Karam: if that's just fan fiction or not but i love it it still makes me sleep well at night so uh because fraser makes me crazy too so i was like yes i love that i got to torture fraser for an extra season so ellie hands over the phone he thinks she's pretty but trouble and jenna's listening to all of this and she walks away and say that's not a good sign that's not a good sign it's my man

44:04Ben Mandelker: so jenna goes into her cabin she's like oh yeah and betula's like what she's like well we're I'm scared she's gonna be to respect me for being her superior She's not gonna respect me because of what Ellie says about me because she's frustrated You know what I mean?

44:22Ronnie Karam: That's what I'm worried about

44:23Ben Mandelker: She was like, whoa, okay So Jenna's like

44:27Ronnie Karam: Yeah, because we're friends and friends of the feds are stuck together and we don't need any more pigeons I'm like when she gets like that, when she gets like Ba-dum, thum-bull

44:45Ben Mandelker: I don't know what you're saying but I heard something about rotten apples so anyway I'm still working on getting my feet in this sheet so have a good day

44:54Ronnie Karam: so Eddie picks up the stew and it's Barbie and he's like hello I'm Eddie oh my god you're Eddie I'm Barbie nice to meet you my eyebrows don't really approve but we'll talk about that later just get me onto the boat loser

45:10Ben Mandelker: i was surprised i really thought it was gonna be brie from the last season with ellie because i thought that maybe like ellie and brie had um like bonded in a weird way um in the wake of the joe situation but then as they kept on showing the stew from behind i was like it looks a little too tall to be brie but you know you never know but barbie was not who i was expecting and i i don't remember what who was on ellie's first season because that was so long ago and ellie showed up at the very end of that season i have no recollection of what season she was on but i'm one but i don't think it was the season with barbie was it i think they probably just made friends and probably in florida somewhere the way all the below deck people do you know hanging out

45:53Ronnie Karam: at like the jimmy buffett you know cantona's tampa somewhere in tampa some super classy tampa bar They all met up. Yeah. Something like that. Besties. So, yeah, if you're looking to me to help you to see who was in that cast, yeah, I don't remember. Especially Below Decks. Below Decks, I immediately delete from the DVR. Because it never ends. It just never fucking ends. So then Ben's like, wow, we're going to have a nice, fresh face around here. Jenna, what do you think? She's like, yeah. Give someone else to dwell to hit on, I guess. She's like, I just, I said. Yes, that's a little one. Tell you what I don't want to have to do.

46:34Ronnie Karam: Pidom.

46:37Ben Mandelker: And Ellie's like, I'm sorry. Ellie's like, oh, yes, I don't give a shit. So then Eddie is talking to Barbie on the tender. And he's like, so, have you worked on yachts long? She's like, yeah, I have seven years. A lot of bags. A lot of bags. A lot of begging? No bags. Begs. I have a midwestern accent when I say begs for some reason

47:01Ronnie Karam: I love begs He's like you'll be fun then She's like hi guys I'm back Coming back into yachting is difficult Cause my last season technically I quit I mean technically And then we see a flashback I forgot about this and I was cracking up watching this clip Fraser was her chief stew And she's just having a meltdown You guys wanted to drive me batshit crazy Fine fuck you You win I'm fucking out of here I'm done. I quit. Fuck you people.

47:30Ben Mandelker: Throwing her stuff in her Louie, getting the hell out of there. Nightmare. So she goes, after last season, I self-reflected and my therapist deserves a raise. I'm like, isn't your therapist your mom? It's your mom.

47:42Ronnie Karam: Yeah, it's your mom. She's like a sex therapist. Wasn't her mom the sex therapist? Yeah. Yes. See, you don't have a therapist. I went to my therapist and she told me I just needed more dick. It was my mom. Yeah, but, you know, I'm still me. It's just more refined version of me. You might notice my updated eyebrows. Are they terrifying? Good. It worked. I'll try to think before I speak now. I mean, it doesn't always work. But, you know, coming into the season, I'm late. I'm sure there's already enough drama. I've gotten an earload of it from Ellie. So I'm going to be a part of it, but I'm not going to be the problem.

48:11Ronnie Karam: Okay? Guess who's going to be in charge? The fruit seller. Ellie's going to be in charge. I'm just here to back her up. Yeah.

48:18Ben Mandelker: Because I'm refined now. You can call me Barbara. So Barbie is, like, telling Eddie that she's from Argentina and everything. and Eddie's like, oh really? I'm going there after the season trying to learn Spanish. Oh, how's it going? What do you got? Hola? He's like, yeah, amateur, stupid face. Never introducing you to my dad.

48:39Ronnie Karam: Yeah, I'm sure she's never heard that one either. Like a pretty girl. Like I'm from Argentina. Oh, I'm going there. Wow.

48:46Ben Mandelker: Don't go to the landfills.

48:48Ronnie Karam: We should fuck.

48:51Ben Mandelker: So the guests are fishing and um or and uh emily is gonna asks uh lisa if she's gonna be going to fish with him and alicia's like no i'll let you guys have your fun i'm having such a good time with the guests they're the most normal lovely wholesome light people we've had in such a long fucking time and now with my gone there should be no more drama it's a privilege to be here to be present to be grateful to be still has a neptus ever but not having a little grouchy boy next to me she's changed so much

49:26Ronnie Karam: she's so different than she was in the first half of the season so um someone catches a fish the wahoo to that uh guest who's like we don't need no wahoo we're italians hey you got a fish made out of pasta remember that guy he's like what's a wahoo so they're trying by catching a wahoo i felt bad for the wahoo and i liked it the wife was like ew because he's like yes look at this dead fish i got and the wife is like horrified she's behind them like disgusting it's a beautiful

49:57Ben Mandelker: fish it's a beautiful beautiful fish um so it's beautiful so we should murder it and then hold it above our heads and celebrate it i went uh to the randomly went to the jaws exhibit yesterday at the uh, Academy. The face.

50:18Ronnie Karam: There's just too much time. I don't know what you're doing. And I feel like I know what you're doing a lot, but what?

50:26Ben Mandelker: I went to,

50:26Ronnie Karam: what were you doing over there?

50:28Ben Mandelker: Dom and I went to the Academy Award Museum because we'd never been, he had never been there before. So we're like, he has to work a lot today. So we're like, Oh, for our anniversary, let's go to a museum. So we went to that one. Cause he'd never been. And it's actually a really good museum. And they had a whole exhibit on Jaws, which is funny because I feel like we like every like two months or every month we've mentioned Jaws because it's like the 50th anniversary or whatever. And it's just like constantly Jaws. So I forget where I was going with this. Something about fishing boats and sharks.

50:58Ben Mandelker: I don't know. I just feel like I have a lot of sharks in the mind right now. Sharks and fish and everything. And I honestly don't remember my point at this point. There's no.

51:06Ronnie Karam: Sorry, I interrupted you. I have fish on the mind.

51:12Ben Mandelker: I guess what I have on my mind is be careful of the fish because they will eat us if we're not careful

51:17Ronnie Karam: I learned that at the Jaws Museum

51:19Ben Mandelker: I learned that from Jaws I don't know what I was going to say

51:22Ronnie Karam: those things are dangerous they're terrifying

51:29Ben Mandelker: they also had a Barbie exhibit too by the way it was very below deck coded very below deck coded
