1:29Ronnie Karam: Well, hello and welcome to Watch What Co-Rappens. 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.

1:47Ben Mandelker: So then we see Sandy texting Norma, and she's like, bloop. Hey, Norma, we're covered this charter, much like I'm sure you're covered in in a big formless dress right now but uh like uh we definitely need a deck hand for the next one so please let me know if you find someone bloop bloop um well uh hopefully if i do find someone they're not as terrible as you or i'm staying single forever bloop bloop uh that's not an if you're that that's a guarantee on that front norma hate to break it to you bloop oh really then why

2:25Ronnie Karam: do I have this handsome man texting me pictures of his penis over and over again and telling me he wants to run away with me.

2:35Ben Mandelker: Sorry, I believe that's my acting bosun Joe taking a picture of a canoe that he tied to the floats in a square shape. Kind of amazing if you really look at it. Eighth wonder of the world.

2:45Ronnie Karam: I saw that square shape and I thought, whoa, there's my engagement ring. Tell him I'm in. Bloop. Oh, yeah.

2:55Ben Mandelker: We'll get you on that square.

2:59Ben Mandelker: Well, I can't wait to show you the floaty square. It's, it's breathtaking, Norma. I gotta say, it's absolutely breathtaking, which I say, I don't say that lightly because when I've smelled your breath and that's not a breath I'd want to take.

3:13Ronnie Karam: Bloop. Bloop. Wow. I saw that square. and the first thing I thought was, he made it into a shape of Captain Sandy's haircut. Bloop.

3:24Ben Mandelker: I like to think my haircut is more of a tribute to that arch in St. Louis. But thanks anyway. Bloop. Love you, bitch. Love you too, bitch.

3:34Ronnie Karam: So Sandy's like, uh-oh, feels like we're moving. Feels like we're moving. Uh-oh. What's going on? Hold on. Lou Diamond Phillips, tell me what's happening. Tell me what's happening on wind flicks. He's like, there's wind. Wind speed graphic, 18 knots. Oh, no.

3:52Ben Mandelker: Oh, God. I feel like I'm in a tribute to Mr. Furley because all I see are 18 knots.

4:04Ronnie Karam: I want to go back there. I got to see how hard it is to release. Jeez, ever since Luke left, things are getting harder to release. Am I right?

4:13Ben Mandelker: Okay, everyone This is an emergency Bring in the water toys We're dragging anchor This boat was not ready for the square We gotta bring it in Okay, it's hip to be square But it's even hipper to not be broken Bring him in

4:30Ronnie Karam: This boat's getting dragged harder than Norma would If there were Yelp reviews on dating sites Come on

4:36Ben Mandelker: Move it Okay like all the like any bachelor who sees norma come in gotta go inside get out of here come on

4:51Ronnie Karam: so uh joe's like how long do we have until we drag onto the shore and all die 30 minutes bloops bloop bloop bloop bloop bloop bloop bloop bloop he's running he's running from one end of the rope to the other hurry we're all gonna die we've I like that they have it down to an exact size. I know. This. You have 30 minutes left. Start the clock.

5:14Ben Mandelker: I know. Where's Chloe? Oh, God. We're about to hit a hard perimeter. We got to get out of here. Okay. Get those. If you don't get that slide into this boat within 30 minutes, we're all going to die. Okay? There's going to be a huge explosion. I forgot to mention, everyone. we do have an atomic bomb on board and its detonation is when the float square hits a rock

5:37Ronnie Karam: so god we got to do this guys we've never gotten the toys in in less than 45 minutes but we have to do it in 30 what are we gonna do this is horrible ish is just throwing like buckets full of water off the side of the boat

5:55Ben Mandelker: we're all gonna die joy is like well everyone if we go down we go down she just pulls out a cello and starts playing

6:10Ronnie Karam: if we go down I go down on avocado I tell you that right now so everybody's running around and they're trying to get this boat get you know get the get it back up and get the anchor down. We gotta move, get all the water toys in. Blah, blah, blah. So they're doing that. And Max is like, I just arrived. Let us get away. We need to rumble.

6:35Ben Mandelker: I'm panicking inside a little bit, because if we don't get this done in time, then I won't have more time to talk about how I'm a better bosun than Nathan is. Oh God, this could be the end of the season.

6:47Ronnie Karam: Yeah. We're dragging anchor. We're getting closer and closer. There's only 14 minutes in 17 seconds until we need to depart. Hurry, everybody. Pull those toys in. Okay, I don't got a lot of time. We're dragging the anchor so fast. I got to move now. Get the naughty boys on board.

7:05Ben Mandelker: Oh, God. We're running out of time. We're going to have to leave some things behind, okay? It's like at the end of that movie 2012. Okay, the world is dying. Get onto the special spaceship to take us to a new planet, okay? Goodbye, dear floats. I hope you get to make a square somewhere else.

7:23Ronnie Karam: Ah, we need a new plan. It's going too fast. All right. Cooper is going to take the tender. Max is going to take the jet ski. They're going to haul all the inflatables into a new anchorage. This is like the Spanish Armada. Vamos a top.

7:38Ben Mandelker: So wait. Vamos a top. I mean, he's absolutely right. This is just like the Spanish Armada. if the Spanish Armada were a collection of inflatable pool toys that were being dragged by a jet ski.

7:53Ronnie Karam: That we're dragging through anchors.

7:58Ronnie Karam: We need to get this slide to a new country. Oh, I believe in you. The opening scene of Saving Private Ryan is like,

8:09Ben Mandelker: okay, everyone, we're not all going to make it, but fight for your floaty freedom.

8:17Ronnie Karam: The naughty boy is telling its story. You know, one day the sun is setting. It's like, oh, I was the only survivor of the great naughty boy release of 2026.

8:33Ben Mandelker: Like an inflatable crocodile is like, they can take away my yacht, but they can't take away my freedom.

8:43Ronnie Karam: So everybody gets the equipment and I know we're all shocked. No one dies, guys. It's okay.

8:49Ben Mandelker: Well, actually, I mean, they actually really don't get all the equipment out, but they do tie it to, like, the tender. And it's like, they've got, like, all these toys. And so then Sandy cuts loose and moves the boat over to a new anchorage, which is, like, this beautiful anchorage, like, that's around the way. And then they just have to wait for the toys. The toys are just coming very slowly around the bend. And they're just, like, Sandy's like, ah, that was great. Okay, everything's safe. And meanwhile, Coop takes like five hours with those toys because I guess they have so much drag on them.

9:23Ronnie Karam: Yeah. Stuck out there with the toys. So then we go to dinner. Well, dinner table. The theme for dinner tonight is outer space pride party. So that's fun. It's a different take on it.

9:38Ben Mandelker: In space, no one can hear you scream. Specifically in space, no one can hear you scream, YAS QUEEN!

9:49just the alien comes out starts starts voguing oh yeah it was like that's all i've wanted all

9:57Ben Mandelker: this time keep giving me the stupid bitches that to eat i'm like can we just have a ball

10:02Ronnie Karam: space cats it's gonna be new cats it's actually a that's actually space cats right what i don't know there's a podcast

10:16Ben Mandelker: space cats now there's a podcast i listen to called space cats peace turtles oh wow culture in case you can't tell wow don't mind me everyone well maybe i'll check it out i've

10:29Ronnie Karam: been listening to a podcast called shameless and i just love it i don't know really why i love it but it's three friends, three Australian girlfriends who just sit around and talk about gossip. And I just find them to be so adorable. And I just sit there and listen to it for like hours. And they're like, oh my God, listen here the other day. This is a hilarious story. All right, girls. The other day I went on Insta and I posted something. And then I saw that someone else had posted something and deleted it. It's like, oh my gosh. I posted something on Instagram, but then I saw you posted something on Instagram, so I deleted mine because I thought it was too similar to yours, but I didn't know that you sold mine and deleted.

11:15Ronnie Karam: Oh, so I deleted mine, but I didn't know you'd seen it. It's like, I had to talk about it on the show. That was hilarious. And I just sit there and eat it up.

11:26Ben Mandelker: I love it. Did they ever talk about lulling an ox into complacency? in the middle of the street. Compliancy, I should say. So then, so they're at the new place. And so the guys are coming around the corner. They'll be coming around the corner. They're still coming around the corner. And Coop is like, it's ridiculous how much I've learned over this terrible season. We've still got half a season left, but coming on my first day, not even knowing how to tie a bowline and not even, I'm just like, now I'm handling this kind of a big task. And I just thought, I can't believe how good I've become of doing this thing.

12:07Ben Mandelker: He's like, okay.

12:08Ronnie Karam: I didn't know about you for first. I didn't know you about you first because I'm his daddy. But then I realized you are my daddy. So now Coop's on this whole. I'm his project daddy. Yeah. Now I got a new dick daddy. And Coop must be going through a lot because that was a huge bonding thing he went through with Nathan where he's like, oh, you're my daddy. and then daddy, you know, disciplined him or whatever. Daddy was harsh one night. He saw daddy drunk, basically. And then new daddy came in. I was like, your old daddy sucks. And then Coop fell right for it. And he's like, I love you now, daddy.

12:45It's a lot to go through, his poor little sheltered Coop.

12:49Ben Mandelker: Plus his heart. He's probably still reeling from the time he saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus.

12:54Ronnie Karam: It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappens commercial. I love sandwiches. I eat a sandwich almost every single day of my life. And the best part of a sandwich is the bread. There can be a little carb guilt with bread eating, but not with Hero Bread.

13:13Ben Mandelker: Guess what? It has zero grams of sugar. And that's very important to me.

13:19Ronnie Karam: The texture of Hero Bread is perfection. It's fluffy, it's white, it's nice and chewy. Just how I like it.

13:27Ben Mandelker: You know, they also have tortillas. And in fact, just last night, I made myself a little casserole and I used my hero tortillas and it was delicious.

13:34Ronnie Karam: You'd never know. It's zero to five grams net carbs and 11 to 32 grams fiber from the texture and taste. No more stiff cardboard baked goods that don't hit the spot.

13:44Ben Mandelker: Get the soft, fluffy experience you know and love. Whether you're packing fresh wraps for everyday lunches or toasting up a 19 gram protein breakfast bagel.

13:53Ronnie Karam: No compromises, just flavor. 0-5 grams net carbs, 0 grams of sugar, and 11-32 grams of fiber.

14:02Ben Mandelker: All your favorite recipes are covered with Hero Bread sliced bread loaves, tortillas, bagels, and noodles.

14:07Ronnie Karam: Small batch drops of indulgent favorites like the popular 2-gram net carb Hero Croissant and 3-gram net carb Hero Pan-e-Chocolat.

14:15Ben Mandelker: Hero Bread is offering 10 % off your order. Go to hero.co and use code CRAPINS at checkout. That's code crappens at h-e-r-o dot c-o.

14:30Ronnie Karam: This episode is sponsored by ZocDoc. Have you been putting off a doctor's appointment or need a dentist and you don't know where to start? We've definitely been there and that's why we use ZocDoc.

15:32Ben Mandelker: And Sandy at one point, so the toys are back and Sandy's like, I didn't know they had little cleats on them, those toys. It's like Norma, little cleats. And Joe's like, neither did I until now. Sandy goes, wow, holy cannoli. All this time, I thought we had cleatless toys, but they got cleats.

15:55Ronnie Karam: Those toys are like anyone trying to date Norma. They've got to put cleats on the bottom of their shoes to kick her away.

16:02Ben Mandelker: Shin guards would be helpful, too. Then inside, there's a text from Norma. Bloop. Hey, Sandy. Finally found you a deckhand. He's coming in from Crossing. Can join you as soon as mid-next charter. Hope you don't fuck this one up, too. Bye. Bloop.

16:25Ronnie Karam: Oh, wow. Finally. Finally got one. Wait, didn't we already get a deckhand?

16:29Ben Mandelker: No, this is like a... No. This is like the... No, Max. Sandy texted Bravado and was like, can any of you guys help me out? And so Sandy got Max, but she still needs a whole other deckhand. Like she still has not been able to fill the void of whoever is missing. Someone get fired. I thought they needed a stew now. No, because they need to put Asha back in the interior.

16:59Ronnie Karam: Oh, right, right, right. So wait, Max is replacing. Oh, so they were missing Luke and Nathan. Max replaced Luke. Sorry, I just watch this and talk about this every single week. Sorry, I had a little brain fest there. I literally forgot about Luke. Just now. So then Max and Coop go down for the night, and Cooper's flirting with Cat a little bit. He's like, oh, my God, guess what? No one found the chocolate bars. He's like, oh, my God, I might be pregnant.

17:29Ben Mandelker: And now at the dinner table, now the madness begins. So Kelly's like, these guys have been so demanding all day. I can sense that Joy is a little bit stressed, and who wouldn't be? I want to be able to support her and do the best thing that I can. And I really just like don't want to give them a legitimate reason to be upset. So what I will do is I will stand in front of that entire table of guests. I'll put up my hands and I will show them the trick I use to calm down any cow or cattle that I see in my way.

17:59Ronnie Karam: I like the conversation the guests are having. One of them's like, so you have$1.5 billion in your bank account right now. What are you going to do with that? And Bunny's like, well, I would give$800 million away to people who need it more than me. Oh, wow. You're only going to keep$700 million for yourself? What a giver. I thought she was going to be like, when people are pretending that they're huge givers, it's usually like, well, maybe I'd keep a few hundred thousand dollars for myself, but I'd give everything away to everybody else. but I like that Bunny's like, I'm still keeping$700 million of that.

18:40Ben Mandelker: Yeah. Well, I love, I love talking, I love Bunny talking about altruism as she just sails along on this yacht. So everyone's like, yes, Bunny. And redistributing wealth

18:53Ronnie Karam: while she's on the yacht. Like, why can't I get shrimp and a burger and a goddamn gluten-free avocado?

19:01Ben Mandelker: So the first course is ceviche and watermelon ponzu and avocado and crispy rice and so there's mixed reviews uh some people think it's great but bunny wishes her rice were a little less crispy which is not something that is requested often with a crispy rice dish usually the issue is that it's not crispy enough but in this case just too crispy

19:25Ronnie Karam: for bunny yeah i haven't heard that and uh so and then another lady is like yeah we're not big fans of this any fish i eat is fried okay well honestly that's jacoya of that's jacoya and sequoia they're

19:40Ben Mandelker: twins yeah well i can't i mean i can't help you there that's something that you need to tell

19:46Ronnie Karam: somebody i mean when somebody says we're doing japanese there's a good chance that you're gonna

19:51Ben Mandelker: get some sushi type fish there guys i was like did they talk about this so bunny's like it's okay we'll figure it out, but you just can't leave the table hungry. Okay. We'll just, you know, just, you just have to ask for what you want and they will redistribute the wealth of their ingredients to make you something good. So, um, Kaylee comes out and bunny is like, we want more watermelon, less avocado because this one, this woman, Judah does not like avocado. So she's like, okay, they got it. No watermelon and no avocado. Like, no, no, no, no avocado, but watermelon yes got it no watermelon whatsoever

20:33Ronnie Karam: watermelon rice you've ever experienced you want water water cover so you hate watermelon is what you're saying it's like no no we like the watermelon we don't want the avocado great so avocado got it what about avocado that's shaped like a watermelon because

20:52Ben Mandelker: if you think about it avocado that's been peeled looks like a watermelon's unpeeled which is

20:56Ronnie Karam: actually quite hilarious here's how i'm gonna remember it i'm gonna say avocado yes no avocado no no it's simple it just remember avocado yes you want avocado watermelon okay no oh and also while you're down there um i want rice that's soft and crispy what can i have some crispy rice

21:22Ben Mandelker: that's actually very soft thank you and then of course the quiz like and more shrimp so she's like some more shrimp okay wonderful so um she goes down there and gives joy all the requests and everything and she's like they also want more shrimp and joy's like more shrimp there's no more shrimp there's a dog today and so kaylee's like all right well um how about this what about instead of shrimp you make some shrimp out of avocados just shrimp shrimp shaped avocado i

21:55Ronnie Karam: think they'll really like that all right one wants the avocado but no watermelon okay did you hear that and so i was like oh you get out of here she starts beating her over the head with some paper towels and it's like oh my god three days like this is going to be odd i'm in the middle of second course like they i this makes me look like a fool i could explode so then back at the table kaylee comes back and tiara is like you know the way you come up here it looks like you've got bad news because kaylee does have that like overly positive bad news face where it's like oh so Hello. We were chit.

22:38Ronnie Karam: You have spent in. Like, she's got a terrible, terrible bad news face.

22:44Ben Mandelker: Yeah. And she's like, well, I really do appreciate you understanding, but just like while we're in the middle of dinner and we are only one chef, we can't accommodate that request right now, which is, by the way, I feel like that's not how you should say it. You should say, unfortunately, we don't have any more shrimp left, but there's a variety of other seafood options that we can throw in the deep fall if that's what you'd like. I feel like that's the answer. We can't accommodate your requests right now.

23:10Ronnie Karam: Also, something that you learn in customer service is what she's doing to say, I really do appreciate your understanding, but don't tell me what I'm understanding, please. I don't like that. When people tell you your attitude, it's like, well, I'm going to stop him by having a bad attitude by saying, Ronnie, thank you so much for your good attitude about what i'm about to tell you no no no no that's gonna piss me off i'm telling you right now do

23:37Ben Mandelker: not open with that i think you just have to start spreading misinformation and you say all right while the chef looks into that shrimp we do i just want to share this report that apparently all the shrimp in the world has that crazy parasite from michigan all right do you still want the shrimp yeah that way they will not only not want the shrimp they won't want it all charter

24:00Ronnie Karam: Yes. So she brings back the remade watermelon avocado dish, and it is just steamed rice with some watermelon on top, which I don't, I mean, I know that Joy is busy down there, but yikes. No, no, no. No, no, no, no. And she told Joy the wrong, she messed up the avocado thing. Right. She got them backwards. So they're like, no, I said no avocado. So she has to take it back down there. It's like, oh my God, she did say that's my fault. All right, that's going off the rails now, Joy. I'm really sorry, this one's my fault. All right, I mixed up the watermelon in the avocado.

24:46Ben Mandelker: So Isha's watching and she's like, Kaylee has been doing a great job. It's acting Stu up until this point. And while there's no part of me that just wants to jump in and there is a small part of me that wants to jump in to take over managing the guests you know that's a skill that she's gonna have to hone if she wants

25:03Ronnie Karam: to reach the chief stew level oh yeah so then jen comes to the galley to help kaylee and um jen's like don't worry about it some people just like to be difficult for no reason jen would know oh really yeah i wonder how jen would know anything about that

25:22Ben Mandelker: also shocking that jen was not taking a victory lap at this shoot i thought she would just be just loving this failure by Kaylee, you know, especially after last week, when she's like, um, there's no appetizer plates for the caviar and the oyster. So, um... But she's pretty chill.

25:40Ronnie Karam: Yeah, she is. She's taking score, probably. Yeah, because I was thinking the same thing about Jen this whole episode. Like, why is she being so nice to Kaylee? But it made more sense when you put it your way. Like, she has a new plan. Yeah.

25:53Ben Mandelker: She's concentrating on her new plan of chaos. Well, guess what? It's time for a new course, which means that there's a new chance, fresh start after that whole issue where half the table did not want avocado because they do not like avocado. It's time to start with a new course. It's going to be vegan tacos. Well, there'll be various tacos, but there'll be some vegan ones. And the vegan ones are tacos filled with guacamole. Like, what?

26:22Ronnie Karam: No, no, no, no. More avocado. so once again judah's like yeah i don't like avocado and she's being really nice about it but she's like it says on my preference sheet and so um the other side of the table is just like yeah these tacos suck i don't like these yeah these are not good sorry and so bunny's like okay then we need the chef to cook up some fish because we do have meat eaters at the table and continue the regular courses. But, you know, we don't want people to be hungry here.

26:57Ben Mandelker: So then Gally Kelly's like, Joy, I promise this one's not my fault, but Judah doesn't like avocados. It's on her preference sheet. And Sequoia doesn't like anything vegan, so we can't make everything vegan. Which, by the way, I don't know. I think at some point, like, you can have a vegan taco. Like, you'll be okay. Okay, so Joy is, she's losing her mind. She's furious. It's just like, it's wearing her down. And then Aisha is just like, can you just fry some fish? Please just fry fish. That's all you need to do, okay?

27:33Ronnie Karam: Just fry some fish. And then Jen, as she walks away, she's like, yeah, that's just what I needed. So maybe she is being a little butthead. So at the dinner table, it's now 1130, but they didn't request dinner till 930, but it's still 1130 now. And so all of this remade food comes out of the galley and they eat, but they're still not very happy with it. And Bunny's like, we'll get it. We'll fix it tomorrow. We'll fix it tomorrow. Yeah. So this was a clusterfuck of chef and guests. Just all. And service. Yeah.

28:11Ben Mandelker: Yeah. And service. Because Kaylee messed it up, too. so now uh the everyone's getting into bed and then coop is texting cat like i think anyone is on to us and she's like on to what i'm trying to sleep leave me alone so then um uh joy is now crying and kaylee they're both crying they're traumatized by this this dinner service and joy just feels embarrassed she says her self-esteem is in the toilet she's like the worst chef she She was like, maybe I should change my career. Maybe be a duck shooter. I think she said dog sitter, actually, not duck shooter. Oh, duck shooter. But I like the idea that she's like, she can play duck hunt.

28:57Ronnie Karam: So Kaylee is upset, too. She's crying. And she's like, oh, I thought I was doing well. But now I can't even face the guess at this point. So Joy texts Luke. oh gosh oh they can't say did my food I just want to cry and he's like wish I could be there to support you I bet they liked it more than you think who wouldn't like your food

29:19Ben Mandelker: wink wink wink wink seriously send this person away he's got too much free time yeah now just remember this

29:29Ronnie Karam: when you're crying and you're upset I'm six foot four alright have a good night don't play

29:36Ben Mandelker: have a great night so So, New Day and Joy makes breakfast. And she goes, even if I hate them, I keep feeding them with love. And this is actually when Joe starts showing off his square float arrangement that he made. He's like, I bolted on different clips. I made more of it. Made it more of a square. You know. And, you know, it's like he's always, he wanted to do it. Like, he would have done it sooner. But, you know. You know, I've been waiting to do this for a while. But it's hard. with Nathan, you know, anti-square Nathan. He hates clipping things, that's just how he is.

30:16Ronnie Karam: He doesn't like things to be clean and organized because he's a amateur. And Max is like, oh well, good work, I stand behind you, I will be so happy to be your leader again. You deserve to be both in ball, you deserve it. Oh, this is really a plot twist. I'm playing the movie in my head about the first time when I saw Nathan and Joe meeting in Barcelona. It's like, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. The guys jumping on each other and dancing around. I am really glad that they're not friends like that anymore because they were fucking obnoxious. I like them as enemies more. Yeah.

I recently purchased a Spanish cookbook, and of course there was a paella recipe in there. And of course then I'm like, well, I got to get a paella pan. So then I'm like, okay, what paella pan am I going to get? And I was like, I want a cute paella pan. I don't want to just get a generic one. Well, where am I going to get a cute paella pan? You know, one thing leads to another.

32:30Ben Mandelker: And then I wind up on Whatnot. And lo and behold, there is a beautiful yellow painted vintage paella pan from Dansk right there. And I got it for less than$45. It was a steal because I also had seen that exact same pan elsewhere on the internet for over$80 or$90.

And then Sandy is like, this is where Sandy is like, whoa, at long last, my dreams of all the floats, anything that floats in the water, arranged in a perfect square. hair it has finally happened so um then coop and cat coop startles cat in the laundry room she's like oh my god stop it and then uh sandy text nathan hey nathy wavy got that from asia sorry i don't want you stressing about the boat okay joe has a good handle on things he made a square he made a square out of round things can you even believe it just let that soak in okay we've got another deckhand on standby just in case.

34:16Ben Mandelker: So just get, just get some rest. And here, I'm going to send you a picture of that square. Oops. Sorry. I sent you a picture of a little bear by accident. Well, enjoy a cute little dog. That's named bear.

34:25Ronnie Karam: Okay. Yeah. I hope you're feeling better over there. Just want you to know things have changed here so much. If you ever come back, it's going to be like coming out of a time machine. You're like, well, the future. People on these little square things that they're moving their fingers up and down on and talking into. things have really progressed without you Nathan so hope you're enjoying life back there on the steam train you know

34:51Ben Mandelker: the other day I went on land in Dubrovnik and I bought an ice cream at a shop and they were like how would you like to pay for that and I said I'll do Apple Pay so I put my phone up to it that's our square reader and I said lady you have no idea no idea what's about to happen on our yacht square reader We're more like square riders over here

35:15Ronnie Karam: Aisha and Kaylee are in their cabin And Kaylee's stressing out She's like I don't want to even do this this morning And she's saying that waking up She felt like shit but she's going to pull it out And she's going to make today better So

35:29Ben Mandelker: At the breakfast table And everyone's still complaining about the food from last night That was really that bad And Jen and Cooper

35:37Ronnie Karam: I can't believe a gluten free Vegan taco although vegan tacos are kind of gluten-free vegan tacos are kind of the easiest to do yeah and that i mean corn tortilla boom well i just personally can't believe people who come onto a

35:55Ben Mandelker: yacht with gluten like a gluten-free diet dietary restriction or a vegan dietary restriction would ever complain i just that's that that's what caught me off guard so jen is totally out of character totally against the stereotype of vegans etc um i kid i kid we know many vegans that we know and love and i enjoy plenty of vegan food um and we invite them nowhere just kidding okay so

36:24Ronnie Karam: crew mess uh jen and ku banter over a waffle and jen's like oh my god you took the big waffle cool you can have it if you want to no take the little one it's what you deserve you're a man hear me roar i'm a woman hear me roar i'm really killing it on this flirtation thing

36:45Ben Mandelker: and then we see uh kaylee and joe talking about an excursion they're going to be going on and kaylee is basically like this charter is such a disaster i need to focus on it and especially after joe was a shithead when we went out i'm just not i just can't i can't waste any mental capacity on him right now i just got to focus on my job i've got bigger avocados to fry at this

37:07Ronnie Karam: point so at the breakfast table joy comes up to the guests about dinner which just don't do that don't do that write out a menu and give it to them and yeah because they can maybe write something down if they have a problem and then they can see that their list is huge and obnoxious maybe i don't

37:23Ben Mandelker: know listen to this it's like joy first of all is like i was thinking i would make pizza because she's like these fuckers i'm just giving them pizza and then they're like um pesto pasta can i have lobster pasta and then bunny's like can i have a lentil soup i'm like wow lentil soup

37:44Ronnie Karam: okay sure and then and can i have a chicken alfredo oh yeah i want a spicy vodka sauce pasta no this is not a diner that's not how it works no it's like you choose like what

37:57Ben Mandelker: But like choose like broad strokes that you're all going to have.

38:01Ronnie Karam: And then you want a pasta instead. OK, let's work from there. You don't each get your own freaking kind of pasta. Stop. Yeah, that's ridiculous. But again, they're annoying. But Joy also coming to dinner after fucking up dinner last night and being like pizza. No. Yeah. Yeah.

38:24Ben Mandelker: That's like a America. She might as well just said American. which honestly we deserve. Let's be honest. I feel like every time we Americans are obnoxious, I think people from other countries are within their right to look at us and go, pizza? Do you want some pizza right now?

38:46Ronnie Karam: So now the deckhands are talking and Joe's mopping and Max is saying, oh, this is going to be a good message to Nathan. He's coming back, bro. This boat is going to look neat. And Joe's like, this is how it's supposed to be done, the way I'm doing it right now. Wait until Nathan sees it. He's just going to be shocked. He might just jump overboard. We'll never see him again. He'll be gone from embarrassment.

39:13Ben Mandelker: And then the guests are heading off on their excursion. They're going to the historic town of Stone, which later Kayleigh says Stone, which means stone in Croatian. I was like, as you can see, there's a lot of stone here. It reminds me of an episode of family ties. I've always remembered this when Nick Mallory's boyfriend was like at dinner and there was like some French person there, or there was something about, I don't know what it was. And he's like, so you speak French? And the person was like, I do. And he's like, so how do you say croissant? Like it's croissant. He's like, really? He's like, okay.

39:55Ben Mandelker: Like, how do you say escargot? They're like, it's escargot. He's like, oh. And the rest of the episode, he was like, oh, I guess I'll see you guys later. Or as they say in French, I'll see you guys later. I don't know. It's dead with me all these years. Mallory.

40:12Ronnie Karam: Mallory. So the guests are going on their excursion. Kaylee, Max, and Coop are on it with them. And then the tender just starts sputtering and smoking. Oh, this is a disaster. This whole episode is one disaster after another. And Cooper's like, don't worry, it's just exhaust. But they're coming up into the boat. So they make it to the shore, barely. Everybody almost dies, don't worry. But they do make it to the shore. And then Coop's like, well, my dad taught me to fix things, so wish me luck.

40:50Ben Mandelker: yeah so basically uh they they all go off to stone and kaylee is like well uh i'm really hoping that my enthusiasm rubs off on these guests and you see her she's like this is the great wall of stone which is made of stone and people built it using stone and all the guests are standing there like why are we on this excursion what are we doing here she's so positive and sweet but she's going

41:15Ronnie Karam: so hard at the positivity because she's nervous and it's just failing you know it's like all right look at this town it's made with stones and there's other stones over there and look at the church this might have started she's dropping her paper she's reading all of this stuff off of the wikipedia that she's printed out and dropping them all over and they're just staring like

41:37Ben Mandelker: this trip sucks meanwhile coop calls up joe and is like oh new daddy the boat's broken i'm sorry daddy i didn't mean to disappoint you and joe's like it's okay just open up the thing and the thing and look in the thing and there's nothing in it there's a thing and first much water bail out okay so basically there's water got into like this one area so he just has like a little soda

42:00Ronnie Karam: of the bottle and just starts scooping it out yeah luke texts joy thinking of you the last din is gonna go so great i'm wearing nothing right now hope you're well she's like oh this is nice uh so coop saves the tinder or whatever and then sandy and asia are talking about last night and asia's telling her that dinner was terrible and that the guests are annoying and they're like you we want something different for this schools and then something different you know and i did help though i stood there and i watched her and i made sure that i was going you can do this you've got this well thanks for your support thanks for supporting your team i appreciate that no worries

42:50Ben Mandelker: You can't dwell on it like you always say. Leave it in the day. Yeah, that's what I say to Norma every time she tries to ask a guy out on a date. I say, you know what, just leave it in the day. It's not going to work out.

43:06Ronnie Karam: Yeah, it's funny with Norma. They will leave it at the day and leave it at the night. Really doesn't matter. They're going to leave.

43:13Ben Mandelker: Oh, gosh. It's like that old song, but changed. I only don't think of you on two occasions. That's day and night. Think about it, Asha. Think about it.

43:30Ronnie Karam: So the disastrous tour continues. And then she's like, do you want to walk? And they're like, yeah, maybe we should just go back because at least we can drink on the boat. She's like, oh, okay. Well, I was going to tell you about this park that's made out of stone.

43:45Ben Mandelker: They're like, oh, God, get us home. take us home um so the boat specs uh sounds like the people were not distributed properly so i guess too many people were sitting in the back and so the boat was going down and then the water got in and so they're not going to do that anymore and then um sandy's like hey joe did you ever talk to to nathan he's he's reliable and joe's like no really well he tried to ring me but i was busy I'll give him a call after the charter or maybe never. I don't know. I let him know how it went and how the team is basically my team. And I have a better vision for him. And I came up with the idea of a square in the water.

44:24Ben Mandelker: Yeah, that'd be nice.

44:27Ronnie Karam: So Joy is prepping for dinner. The table is being decorated for the theme, Abundance Island.

44:37Okay.

44:39Ronnie Karam: And I mean, at least they're kind of new themes. They're like, let's do pride, but we'll make it in space. Abundance Island. Is that like Deal or No Deal Island? Where we give some things to people, but not too much. Abundance kind of island. So Joy is still like, oh, this church is garbage. Four different kinds of pasta. I'm taking it personally. Yeah. You should just say, let's choose a pasta, guys. Ring it in, Joy. So then we have Joe telling Max to keep working on, but it's almost bedtime and I'm a leader and don't forget. And so Joe's like, well, if I'm being honest, I'm better at this than Nathan.

45:24Ronnie Karam: Like Cooper, I feel like he sees that. And, you know, mostly because I'm telling him to see it. But still, you know, Max is not very fond of Nathan's leadership style. And when I feel like it's the three of us, me, Cooper, and Max, and then it's just Nathan alone, a non-abundant silent. I feel like the odds are on our side. What are the odds? Are you going to kill Nathan? I know. Vote him out?

45:49Ben Mandelker: What are the odds? Are you guys all going to be like standing in front of a volcano and seeing who gets hit by the pyroclastic flow? So then Max gets a text from Nathan and Nathan goes, Hey bro, are you there? I'm sure Joel's been in your ear and I'm going to get back to the boat at some point and I need you. Have my back. And I'll for sure make your lead deckhand swear. This is some shady ass shit. I'm sorry. I don't like this whatsoever. I don't like this. This is encouraging a toxic behavior in your workplace. You've already given out lead deckhand. So this is a false promise that you're probably not going to be able to back up.

46:25Ben Mandelker: We know like Joe has proven himself to be a very reliable lead deckhand this season. Annoyingly so. And like there's just no way you're putting Max above Joe. This is bullshit. I don't like this coming from a leader of a team.

46:37Ronnie Karam: Nathan being this petty and terrible, I really didn't see coming. Because he's, you know, he's had his annoying moments on the show. But this is, like, the way he's been acting this whole season has been horrible. Like, his temper. And then his anger is just, like, continuing to go with the anger. Like, no! And getting in their face and shit is super weird. I mean, I guess he's got the baby stress and all. But this is beyond. unacceptable i can't believe he's doing this and he's doing it on camera like you've already there's already a lead bosun or a lead deckhand and he's taken over for you while you've gone you really think you're going to come on and then fire joe from being the the lead deckhand after he just did all that and sandy's just going to sit there and let you do it you are stupid you are just a stupid petty little man and it's unacceptable to do that to some an employee on the boat i'm

47:28Ben Mandelker: are you're putting max in a really awkward awkward position you're setting him up to fail and you're making a promise to him that you're not gonna be able to make like to what does it mean have my back what's he supposed to do how about you give him a reason to have have your back why don't you encourage be like hey i'm hearing great things about you i'm so proud of you i'm so glad you're on the team i can't wait to work but you know get like get back to work and i can work with you and i'm gonna try to give you some really cool opportunities and i want to help you grow anyway I need to groom you to become a bosun someday.

48:00Ben Mandelker: That's how you win over someone's heart is by appealing to ego, but also offer him stuff that he might actually want and be happy from a leader.

48:10Ronnie Karam: But Max is a dummy. And so Max has been kissing Joe's ass, hoping that this time he can get the lead deckhand if Nathan doesn't come back. So now he's like, oh, I've been kissing the wrong ass. All I've wanted my whole entire life is lead deckhand. What do I do? What do I do now? Oh, well, okay. Then go purposely mess up everything on the boat to make Joe look stupid. Like, what, are you going to sabotage it? Yeah. I don't know. Maybe. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, this could be great.

48:40Ben Mandelker: But Nathan, what a dumbass. Honestly, yeah. I think this is shitty. And if he was, he is so concerned about Joe, like, undermining his position, which he should be because Joe is doing that. and he's actually doing it in a way more blatant way than i ever expected but if you're so concerned let your performance be the thing and the way you treat people be the thing that don't treat everybody like and they won't turn you you dummy exactly we've just finished watching house the dragon okay we know how this works yeah you're gonna get your face burned off all right everybody
