Below Deck Mediterranean S11E14 centers on crew power struggles and romantic/sexual entanglements aboard a charter, culminating in police intervention and a final-day emotional moment honoring a guest’s brother.

Max’s father is found and retrieved after border speculation.
Masi’s “espresso and cigarettes” persona; love-bombing texts from Luke to Joy; Jen touching Cooper’s chest/nipple; police boat arrives after loud music; Joe and Kaylee release a lantern at midnight for her brother’s anniversary; tip meeting totals $26,000.

But meanwhile, Jeff, who's one of the primaries, is having a great old time, because he was a dick last episode, but this episode, he's just like a happy... He's like a happy, happy, happy man.
4:05Ronnie Karam: Yeah, because he gets to go into the water and play with the water toys. So Joe is talking to Cooper And he's like, did Nathan say you could go down? No Nice, so I suppose you're supposed to stay up all night Never sleeping Because Nathan's a terrible boss, eh?

4:30Ronnie Karam: Well, we had a conversation on the bow And I said he's extremely unapproachable Well, you said it right to his face So that's a good thing. Who? Well, he was trying to push me for information. How about you? It's like, yeah, he was trying to give me information about you, talking bad about you, but I don't do nothing. I'm a secret keeper. I'm going to say nothing about nobody in no time.
4:54Ben Mandelker: Well, I've got nothing to hide. It's what he wants. He wants this. And Joe is like, you can feel the division in the deck room. I'm just trickling down from Nathan. He's got a vendetta against me now. I'm like, because you're undermining him. because i pouted when he came back i could just feel it in my bones he's going to come back with this new deck and he's going to flaunt it in my face like oh look i've got to know it new toy well that's true too he will do that you guys are all right and you guys are all wrong at the same time congratulations yeah you're both terrible uh so we do get the new decky and
5:26Ronnie Karam: people have been speculating who are they going to bring back who is it gonna be how do you follow up max it's a new guy yeah we've never seen named massy mossy macy how do you pronounce it well maybe yesterday i pronounced it like three times out loud so i wouldn't forget how to do it by the time we got to the show and i'm still not remembering massy massy mossy massy i'm gonna say
5:51Ben Mandelker: massy italian now italian massy uh yeah he's like a real quirky kind of guy that's like he's a real sort of skinny guy with angular features and a little ponytail. And he's like, usually I'm the guy in charge, but I'm going to love the no responsibility thing. I'm your problem. And he tells us, if you couldn't tell, I'm from Italy. I don't have any blood in my veins. I'm just espresso and cigarettes and stress. And I've been yachting for 10 years and I've been on small boats, big boats. I've been a deckie. I've been a bosun a few times. What is me? I'm a massie.
6:26Ronnie Karam: I just love smoking. what do you mean I can't smoke in here in the confessional come on
6:31Ben Mandelker: he literally lights up the cigarette like I mean he is so Italian he's like this is what I do I just smoke a cigarette my life is happy they're like um Massey you can't do that in your life what do you mean I can't do that but I'm Italian I can't smoke anywhere in the world
6:46Ronnie Karam: yeah this guy's definitely ready for TV I think this was his whole audition like ah don't even have blood in my veins just caffeine and nicotine
6:55Ben Mandelker: now why i love him i love him like right away i love this guy so he's just so also kind of like he's weirdly cute he's not cute at all there's nothing about him that's cute but there's something these like sort of spindly and and like awkward and i don't know i think he's sort of adorable um so then uh but he shouldn't be and you know his breath just reeks of smoke at all times But on the swim platform Sandy meets Massey And oh hey Massey, Sandy Massey, Sandy Okay, get ready for a hug Do they hug in Italy? Because guess what? They hug on this boat And by they, I mean me Okay, get in here Massey
7:40Ronnie Karam: How do you say little bear in Italian? In English we say little bear I know, you told me it's little bear Oh, that's a word for it Little Berda. That's beautiful. What a gorgeous language. God, no wonder you guys came up with pasta. Jeez, your mouth is full of beauty. I'm going to tell you that right now, Massey, okay? And cigarettes. Lots of, God, you're smoking three cigarettes at one time. That's something.
8:07Ben Mandelker: We actually took a pasta from the East, but that's okay. So then Massey is like. Really? Is that true? Marco Polo, baby. Marco Polo, baby.
8:20Ronnie Karam: Isn't that the whole thing with Marco Polo? You wouldn't know from being to Italy, that's for sure You just told Italy off Yeah, I could be wrong They've just taught a lesson, I'll tell you that Because when I went to Italy, they were very much like We made the pasta So what do you think of that, Ty? I was wrong
8:38Ben Mandelker: I love your work It's a myth Apparently it's a myth I'm glad you told me
8:44Ronnie Karam: I'm glad you corrected that because I was literally mortified right now that Italy is such a liar.
8:51Ben Mandelker: So I'm glad that... No, apparently it's just like some sort of urban legend. The National Pasta Association has a very rigorous timeline about pasta. Apparently it did preexist. You know, I don't even know. This is too important a topic for me to research on the fly. So we're just going to say that everyone had pasta.
9:15Ronnie Karam: at all times but apparently marco polo did not take pasta invention away from somebody you can't just give that to anybody marco polo you know he invented a pool game that sucks that's what he invented that is a hundred percent yes oh marco oh shut the fuck up all of you all of you shut up
9:36Ben Mandelker: open your eyes yeah but so anyway for marco polo so there's that everyone congratulations we all
9:42Ronnie Karam: learn something liar polo oh i invented the pasta oh sure you did marco yeah yeah he what by the
9:51Ben Mandelker: what a jerk that he like marco polo goes off to china he sees noodles and he comes back and then he takes credit for pasta in italy when it was already in like that's just not right
10:02Ronnie Karam: no no he's an asshole and how many kids have choked on water playing his game this is not a good person a lot okay so um meanwhile they're saying hi to the new guy but jen hasn't seen him yet she's like oh my god there's a new guy coming oh i'm just gonna i'm gonna like push up my boots
10:19Ben Mandelker: and when he comes in i'm just gonna like bend over and be like hi hi no one sheets will be ready for me yes and then um he walks in and she's like oh oh because she was hoping and there would be like another luke type but instead she got mossy and of course she got like a five eight it's just like ew gross i don't want to fuck him what a worthless human being yeah my type is like six foot four
10:50Ronnie Karam: really hot possibly a model super worked out at all times like that's like basically my type that's all of our types i know seriously i love when people come up with shit like that like oh Look at me, I'm just an original human being Who looks for the spirit in person It's like nah, it's just tall and hot basically

12:07Ben Mandelker: He's so gross.
12:07Ronnie Karam: Why is he trying so hard every single day? I don't believe that this person acted like that, where it's like, oh, I really like you, and then goes and basically bangs somebody else twice the night after they were flirting with you, and then suddenly needs to see you and talk to you every day. What is that?
12:26Ben Mandelker: I know. This is the definition of love bombing right here. We always talk about love bombing, and next-gen New York City is Liam Love Bombing, is he not this right here is pure unadulterated love bombing served on a silver platter with possibly some semen on it this is it everyone love splooging love i guess that's an actual
12:48Ronnie Karam: thing not a say not a saying so um in the pantry cat and cooper flirting she's like oh my god i'm gonna do the laundry you are don't tell nobody about it be like our lights you say oh my god You're a subtaxie. Shh, shh. Be mean to me. Be mean to me right now. Hi. You're short. Oh, my God. Okay, that really hurt, actually. It really hurt me, the way you just talked to me right now. I really don't appreciate that.
13:17Ben Mandelker: That is very cat. That actually, like, really hurt me. I feel like that's her all season. I'm actually, like, feeling really hurt by that.
13:26Ronnie Karam: Oh, my God. You know what? There's a girl here from Charleston. You should talk to her.
13:30Ben Mandelker: oh my god did you see him he's talking to that girl from charleston like what the hell i'm actually really hurt by that
13:39Ronnie Karam: really hurt that said i do love her and he does act like a little jackass but i just love that she's always like i'm so cool with this and the next minute she's like oh it's not cool with this anymore it's not cool she never should have agreed ever ever ever ever
13:59Ben Mandelker: Well that's how you know not to do it
14:01Ronnie Karam: When you've done it before That's how I know not to do it Keep me a secret The only person I'll tell is your wife Oh just kidding everybody Calm down
14:15Ben Mandelker: Lonnie was never the other woman
14:17Ronnie Karam: I'm going to sleep with my own Husband I'm certainly not going to sleep With yours That's right
14:25Ben Mandelker: So yeah is this did you mention uh how jen what jen says in this moment when jen says your beef is so funny i'm gonna be glad things didn't work out could you imagine so koopa's like keeping our relationship secret was definitely the right move i mean crazily enough no one's on to us and i feel like it's adding a layer of fun not quite as fun as capturing bunch of fish and put it in my above ground pool i'm turning into aquarium but pretty close to that sort of fun because now i can walk the breezeway and shoot a little wink through the window and no one has to know. No pressure, just loud and casual.
14:57Ben Mandelker: Meanwhile, everyone knows it. Everyone sees it.
15:01Ronnie Karam: Well, I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but, like, I think it's, like, been really good. I mean, Cooper's a terrible actor, and, like, I'm not really good at either. Like, one time in school, I auditioned for The Little Mermaid and I wanted to be The Little Mermaid, but I got cast as, like, one of the flotsams, you know, the eel. That's how I got cast. That's how much I suck. that's like the role i was born to play flatsom and jetsam well um not gorilla um what's her name the sea witch what's her name ursula ursula yeah that's my role but you know i would probably end up understudying ursula which means i would be playing flatsom and jetsam and i'd kill it
15:43Ben Mandelker: well it's a good role to be fair cat is very sort of like floppy armed and everything and she does sort of have like the natural movements of like one of those ribbon eels that goes like through the water like like I see it. I see why she was cast. It's not an insult. It's just you gotta go. Really? I don't think anyone's gonna take that as a
16:04Ronnie Karam: compliment. She should have been cast as an eel.
16:08Ben Mandelker: I'm not saying she was a moray eel. I'm saying she was a ribbon eel. A ribbon eel is very beautiful. It goes like a little ribbon through the water. You ever see a ribbon eel? Did we ever see a ribbon eel during the fish report? available on YouTube.
16:21Ronnie Karam: I feel like we must have at some point, but I don't know.
16:25Ben Mandelker: It's thundering in Los Angeles. I, of course, have to interrupt the podcast to mention that because it thunders all of six times per year. And so that was one out of five. Very exciting.

26:35Ben Mandelker: No! No! I'm just trying to get back to work over here. That's it. We're not in love at all.
26:42Ronnie Karam: They're horrible liars, but nice try, though! So, Aisha is talking to Joy about cakes. And she's like, if I'm ever with you on my birthday, I want a curry cake!
26:59Ben Mandelker: Um, and Joy, uh, tells a story about how she's like, you know, when I sit work for American, I was like, you guys put girls in your cake. I was like, oh my God. But then I tasted it. And I was like, oh no, that is my favorite.
27:15Ronnie Karam: It's amazing. I love it. Second only to noodle cake. It was so delicious. Um, so we go to the sun deck and Sandy is meeting up with Joe and Nathan. and Nathan is like, wow, look at this. I've organized the lazarette. Look at that. I've got it looking pretty good. Well, what do you think about that, Captain Sandy? She's like, uh, do I look like I was born yesterday? Jeez. I mean, I have been doing salmon skin facials or salmon sperm facials, but good Lord. Damn, too old to fall for that one. Nice try, Nathan. Organize the lazarette.
27:52Ben Mandelker: Yeah, stupid fucking lazarette motherfucker. I'll tell you what you need to organize You're Showing up for your court cases Sir How many have we not found Nathan yet Where is this man Find him
28:10Ronnie Karam: I don't know I would imagine a bar somewhere I don't really think it's that difficult Eh
28:16Ben Mandelker: Eh So
28:21Ronnie Karam: She asked Joe how he likes the new guy He likes him and she's like are you sweating He's like yeah Ah, because it's hot in the lies. Okay, well, you missed that one. Well, it's been a great talk with the both of you.
28:34Ben Mandelker: Yeah, really great. Love a lazarette. You know what? It's funny because when I was younger, I wanted to invent a cough drop and call it lazarette. But it turns out lazarette's already a thing. Okay, good chat. Good chat. Well, actually, now that I think about it again,
28:52Ronnie Karam: I am going to invent a cough drop, and it's going to be called a lazarette. and it's for lesbians with coughs. You know, no one's thought of that yet.
29:01Ben Mandelker: Yeah. Gigi Fernandez. She's going to promote it.
29:07Ronnie Karam: You can't keep the air conditioning on for five minutes without her coughing. She'll love it.
29:12Ben Mandelker: That's right. That's right. So Sandy gets a message from Max. It's a video message. And it's Max? In like a Jeep? It's like a... he's driving through the desert on like something that's barely even a road and his dad is sitting with a Pomeranian on his lap and Max is like oh guess what we are doing it I'm at the wall with my father I got him we got a little doggy in the middle of fucking nowhere it's the safari anyway everything is good everything has been sorted so he did somehow find his dad in the middle of the Sahara and he has a jeep and they're driving off to Libya to freedom and I don't understand.
29:57Ben Mandelker: I don't understand what's happening over there.
29:59Ronnie Karam: It's really crazy. I was surprised that we saw this because there's been so much speculation on whether this is just made up, if this is a story, but I don't know. I bought it because that looked like a Jeep that you just hot wire on the side of a road and drive through the desert with your elderly father and his tiny Pomeranian. I mean, I bought it.
30:21Ben Mandelker: It was literally just one of the craziest um it's just one of the craziest things that we've seen it really is
30:31Ronnie Karam: oh my gosh he did it he did it oh he saved his dad it's like some Liam Neeson shit right there yeah
30:42Ben Mandelker: it's something that's for sure um I still have many questions and I would like to hear answers um so then we go to Jen and Kat's cabin and they're getting ready for dinner service and Jen is in search of her cloak. She needs a cloak for her apocalyptic look. And Coop is calling out for her because she's asking about his laundry or something like that. And she's, of course, very flirty with him. And so she starts touching his chest and stuff. And she's like, oh my God, I keep touching you weirdly. Sorry, I don't mean to be weird with you. anyway he's like oh it's okay don't worry you can touch me wherever you want
31:26Ronnie Karam: sorry was that your nipple whoops oh wow goal score score everybody i'm just kidding i'm not totally not a deal yeah uh lie down right now and pull out your penis kidding i am kidding what are you talking about i'm not flirting with you hey i just wanted to say thank you like so much for always being so nice to me because like i really i really haven't clicked with anybody but like it's really good to dick with you i mean click with you what oh my god so embarrassed and then
31:59Ben Mandelker: jen goes back into her cab and she sees cat and cat's like oh my god like what happened and jen's like cooper was just like shirtless and then i touched his nipple but just his nipples don't you worry and cat's like do i have to like watch out for you because this is actually kind of holding me. She's like, please. I thought you weren't into that anymore. Whatever. Fresh meat for me.
32:23Ben Mandelker: Oh my god. I hope she's not serious.
32:28Ronnie Karam: So we go to the crew mess and Nathan is texting Gail. New Ducky knows his stuff. Maybe he'll put Joe in his place. Hope he got some rest and give my boy some good cuddles for me. Heart, this is the guy who's got a son now. Just in case you forgot. Family means everything as evidenced by all my actions after this season.
32:51Ben Mandelker: So then it's the dinner table. And everyone's like, oh my god, what a beautiful day this came. It's so good, etc. And it's Cassandra's birthday, in case you forgot. And then Jeff gives a speech and he's like, this is her birthday. But she is my gift. She is my gift. I'm like, okay. Go vomit in a sink again
33:16Ronnie Karam: Yeah when people say You get choked up I really thought He was like she's my

33:32Ben Mandelker: Seriously
33:33Ronnie Karam: What got him so happy today What'd you say What got him so happy today He was a real beaster He gotta be in the water That's all you need God. So now we go to the pantry and Kaylee radios Jen to do the primary and the guest room. And Jen's like, okay, Jen, I mean, I'm sorry, Kat, could you do the primary? Like, I need you to vacuum it. Oh, my wrist. My wrist really hurts. I twisted my wrist fondling ear guy. Kidding. I'm totally kidding. That was a joke.
34:13Ben Mandelker: yeah it was but the nipple did really twist my wrist around you know when you're doing a titty twister sometimes it could be hard on the wrist so then cat is vacuuming for jen and um cat's like all season i've had jen's back and i'm getting to the point where i can just like no longer tolerate her negative attitude and like her slacking off at work and blaming it on her wrist injury her flirting with cooper in front of me it's just like it's almost like this isn't just like a bad attitude anymore this is just like you're not a good team member kat yeah god bless you but this is something you probably could have figured out many weeks ago yeah but it's starting to bug
34:54Ronnie Karam: her more because now she's blatantly going for this guy you know so then um joe comes in to help with dishes and joy is still getting texts from luke she's like oh look who's texting me yeah Well, I mean, I'm texting him back, too. But, God, he texts me all the time. All the time texting. Yeah. None of this is a good sign, Joy. Run.
35:16Ben Mandelker: No.
35:16Ronnie Karam: Let's meet on your other text saying, don't do this.
35:20Ben Mandelker: Yeah, Joy, please don't go down this path. So, it's 10.33 p.m., and the DJ is there, and he is spinning. And the hours tick by. it's 11 30 then it's 12 25 um which i'm not paying attention to because i think what what could be the downside um so everyone's dancing and having fun and massey's saying i woke up yesterday and i was in italy i pack my bag i jump on a plane i smoke a cigarette in the bathroom of the plane get thrown off the plane get arrested get bailed out get on a new plane smoke on a new plane go back to jail eventually after about four or five flies i decided okay i I won't smoke a cigarette.
36:01Ben Mandelker: And then I arrived and now I'm here. It's crazy. Did I even have a shower today? No.
36:06Ronnie Karam: I love when people travel and then they say things like, isn't it crazy? We were in one place an hour ago and now we're in another place.
36:16Ben Mandelker: I literally am that person. I'm like, isn't it wild that I was in New York today? And now I'm in Los Angeles. It is wild. I'm sorry. I'm still amazed by air travel.
36:29Ronnie Karam: so now we go to the crew mess and kaylee is texting her mom it's about to be the anniversary of her brother's passing so she talks about that it was 19 years ago but they still get together and they still celebrate and you know come together whenever the day comes and then we go to the main which by the way is a kink for joe just to warn you just don't but we've already seen this plot before don't fall for it yeah and so i don't know i'm just like laughing it's a kink for joe kink warning um so then it's late at night and some would say it's early in the morning
37:09Ben Mandelker: um and jen's wiping down a coffee table and all of a sudden there's sirens and here comes the police boat policia we've been all the moment we've been waiting for why are the police here? So I'm assuming, well, they apprehended Max at the border with his dad, and he had illegal contraband, and the dads wanted, and they needed to get a reference from what Max said to call Captain Sandman. I just assumed some crazy thing, but nope. That's a noise can happen.
37:38Ronnie Karam: And also, at least they did a funny version of this scene, you know, the way they put it together, because the cops come, and they're like, oh, Get the cameras out of our face. We will not have cameras in our face. What the hell? Why are you putting a Darth Vader filter over? Over the police guys. It was so funny. She's like, I'm sorry. The captain was asleep. Do you want me to wake up the captain? Yes. Wake up the captain immediately.
38:10Ben Mandelker: Oh, my God. Are you flirting with me? Oh, my God. I can see that body under there. What, officer? Just get the captain your hand off my nipples Whatever you say Do you always have those two strange braids hanging down? What you noticed?
38:31Ronnie Karam: Oh my god, Lung, I wanna fuck your father Kidding, kidding, kidding It's a movie reference

Don't my taxes pay for more than this? My ocean taxes.
41:13Ben Mandelker: I want to know who called the police. Who called the police on this boat? Because the music was playing until 1230.
41:20Ronnie Karam: It was probably the boat of partiers at the dock.
41:23Ben Mandelker: Yeah, what about them?
41:24Ronnie Karam: Who were always late.
41:25Ben Mandelker: Yeah, exactly.
41:26Ronnie Karam: They're the first ones to turn off their music to be like, oh, those neighbors sure are being loud.
41:31Ben Mandelker: I know. So someone reported loud music, because 11pm is the curfew. So Sandy's like, hey, I'm real sorry. I promise it won't happen again. Here's a brand Zeno, and if you want a little hug, and it sounds like your voice is a little hoarse, a little bit deep. Would you care for a lazarette? It's my own proprietary brand. Too bad, dog. This time, I give you a warning. Next time. I destroy your planet. I would love to see below deck Death Star. Like, hi, I'm Captain Sandy, and I'm used to running a super yacht, but now I run a super planet.
42:12Ronnie Karam: It's 2026, though, so it's kind of below deck super planet. It's kind of like the below deck regular planet. But in this one, everybody has daddy issues.
42:26Ben Mandelker: and then when the studios have to take something from the from like the kitchen all the way up to the main deck the their stairs their stairs are like 60 000 steps to the surface like we really gotta put a kitchen close to the top of the top of the top of the death star do we really have to have our kitchen buried right into the center of the death star i love spaghetti western spaghetti space opera spaghetti western no the spaghetti all right well it wasn't space western anyway i
42:59Ronnie Karam: don't know what the hell i'm talking about lazarette okay let's talk about lazarets so now it's the final day of charter it's early in the morning joy's preparing breakfast joe finds asia and um he asked for a lantern and some candles because he wants to do something special for Kaylee and the passing of her baby brother. Now listen, I've learned one thing. When a sibling passes, it's a night that I'll probably get laid. All right, thank you. Bake the special. All right, toots.
43:32Ben Mandelker: Kind of, yeah. He's like, well, I really flopped on this front last season, so I've got a do-over and I'm going to show America that I'm a good guy. Meanwhile, Jen is on the phone with her mom. She's like, mom, my wrist is like really fucked up. I'm just going to show you something. Look, look, this wrist, like it goes this way. And this wrist goes this way. Like, I mean, I'm fucking dealing with my wrist. I'm so over this shit. I didn't even get promoted. Your mom's like, I'm sorry.
44:02Ronnie Karam: Well, it's not a really interesting Instagram meme the other day that said, don't put your hands up in defeat. Put your hands in the pile and put your hands together. Okay. Are we done here? I'm really busy, honey.
44:14Ben Mandelker: You know, honey, I'm so sorry. I wasn't listening because I was reading a profile about Danny McBride in the New Yorker. Can you take it from the top? Thank you so much.
44:28Ronnie Karam: So Jen's like, I literally only have like two charters a lot, but I'm like hopefully I'll make it, Mom. I'm like, seriously. It's like terrible, Mom. So now we go to the deck and Sandy is telling the crew to haul the anchor. Massey does it. He's amazing. She's like, wow, look at you. What are you new? I couldn't even tell. You're a pro. This was amazing. It was fantastic. God, you're the Gigi Fernandez of Inkerpollen.
44:57Ben Mandelker: I don't know who that is, but if it involves some sort of cigarette, thank you. So Joe now goes over to his sort of position in the hierarchy to Massey. He's like, hey, Massey, we normally turn the Ankerwash on. And Massey's like, well, Nathan told me not to. You can see the water was pretty clear to see the shackles. He's like, cool. Okay. And Joe walks away all angry, and like, he was rebuffed by Massey, who's following his instructions.
45:27Ronnie Karam: Yeah. Massey's like, I've been here one night, and they're already going at each other. Why am I talking like that? It's too many accents. There's too many accents I'm doing badly to add another one on top
45:40Ben Mandelker: of all of those. but like a liver puddle in an irish and an italian accent i don't even know two french ones i was still on lazarette and then new zealand ah the many different facets of an english accent um so uh here comes breakfast and um kaylee uh kaylee asked jen if she's gonna wear her wrist brace and jen's like no because then people just ask questions and i just don't like people fussing i'm like but all you do is talk about your wrist but you don't want people to ask about your wrist okay fine yeah so they dock
46:15Ronnie Karam: then it's fine yeah they dock the guests get the hell out of there uh jeff barfs all over everybody and then he's gone now it's time for tip meeting charter seven you guys smashed it gosh massy mossy macy you came on board that's basically the entire cast of secret lives of mormon wives Massey, Macy, and Massey. Okay, you guys, you come on board. It was such a pleasure. Okay, the tip is$26 ,000.
46:49Ben Mandelker: Yeah, is that great? They're like, yay. So now Joe and Massey are talking about their families. Massey's like, I miss my mom so much. And Joe's like, no, bro. My mom's like my best friend. And so is my little sister. And she's in yachting. He's like, oh, really? maybe one day you will step up as a bosun and you will take her as a deckhead. He's like, that's what I'm hoping for. But unfortunately Nathan he doesn't know what he's doing. So then
47:16Ronnie Karam: Hopefully in the future I'll be the type of man who can say hey, pull in a hose and a new guy will actually listen to me. I guess
47:26Ben Mandelker: I'm just a guy who follows orders and cleans up lazarets on his own. So then we have a nice little moment where Joe invites Kaylee to the sun deck and he has a little flower for her and he's like I want you to look at what time it is on your phone she's like it's 12am in Sydney right? Yes. What day? And then she realizes and she starts to cry because it is now the anniversary of her brother's passing so he comforts her she cries in his arms and he gets like a little lantern that they can put in the water to honor him and they send it off and
48:05Ronnie Karam: because I get floats you can do it at floats I'm so romantic Aisha got that for you I know
48:12Ben Mandelker: also can you like not could you like not put the floating fire next to all the boats thanks
48:19Ronnie Karam: yeah where's the where's Mary Time Law now
48:22Ben Mandelker: I know it's a very nice gesture but I was also like there's a lot of boats here so afterwards everyone's getting ready to go out and everything and And Kat and Kaylee are talking. And Jen can hear everything that they're saying. And she hears Kat say something along the lines of like, God, I wish we had been roommates. Or like, why weren't we roommates? Or wouldn't it be great if we were roommates? God, I wish it was the two of us. So Jen hears that and is like, ugh. Right, thanks.
48:53Ronnie Karam: Yeah. Well, because they're like doing hair together or something. Like, oh my God, how are we not roommates? Yeah. So Jen goes, to Coop, basically. She runs into Coop. And she's like, oh my... He's like, you and Kat look the same with that curl. She's like, oh, really? Wow, that's crazy. Like, did you almost just kiss me because you thought I was Kat? Stop! Okay, you can do that. Just practice on it. Just call me Kat. Just do it. I'm just kidding. I'm kidding.
49:24Ben Mandelker: Aww. And so then... Where were we? She's like, bro, can I have a hug?
49:30Ronnie Karam: I'm like, seriously having a bad day. I really need a hug from a person who's over six foot and works out. Thanks. Oh, that sounds really good. Thanks.
49:40Ben Mandelker: What's wrong? She's like, I feel left out. I miss my friends. I just feel like I don't fit in, especially with the stews. You know what I'm saying? He's like, well, we'll make sure to include you. That's for sure, ma 'am. So then they now enjoy.
49:56Ronnie Karam: I'm in. Swing. Swing around. I'm the third i'm your third i'm yeah i'm kidding i'm kidding get your hands off me i'm just kidding let's keep talking um so then we go to joy's cabin so when she when she wants to flirt with somebody she does kind of a guilt thing because remember she did this with the other guy too luke when she was like yeah well i just want you to know like my last relationship like ended really badly and it was horrible and i'm still looking and then when he chose somebody else she was like oh my god, you knew what happened in my last relationship.
50:33Ben Mandelker: Yeah, she's like, you, I'm letting you know that if you mess with me, you're gonna, like, that's gonna be on you because now you know how I've been hurt. So, meanwhile, Joey gets a text from Luke, and he's like, I miss you, Ma Ren. Be on the lookout for a little surprise tomorrow. Ma Ren means, I think, my queen. So, she's like, Dukey, now they all go out, and they're on the water taxi, and And Jen is watching as Kaylee and Kat are taking selfies with each other. But, like, Jen's not in those selfies. So Coop is like, oh, look at that sunset over there, Jen. I love it. I love a sunset, you know?
51:12Ben Mandelker: And Jen's like, yeah, I can see you off, like, on a fishing boat. Isn't that funny? Isn't that hot? Don't you want to fuck me? And he's like, yeah, I wish you could see me back in Charleston. That would be cool.
51:23Ronnie Karam: Yeah, well, Florida's not really that far off from Charleston. so like maybe we can just like be together yeah I will be with you I will move to Charleston yes
51:35Ben Mandelker: I love an above ground pool aquarium so she Jen's like I think that Cooper is like very much a flirt and I respect it because I'm the same way and I could see it getting carried away on like you know a night out in Fort Lauderdale but we should see I don't know crazy nights in Fort Lauderdale
51:53Ronnie Karam: so Sandy is enjoying her time off with no crew meanwhile while and um she's wearing her sperm mask or whatever her like salmon sperm or whatever and she's like wow god my wife leah was really right about this one this feels great yeah it just feels good wow i should text norma she she could wear this on her face people might actually date her until she took it off that would be a shame god it's really a shame being mean to norma just by myself with no one to hear me if a norma falls in the forest and no one's there to hear it
52:27Ben Mandelker: is it still funny so then uh we go over to kasar restaurant and everyone's ordering dinner and masi is saying how happy he is and they all cheers to masi and then uh jen is sitting next to coop and being very flirty and she's like she's like oh my god coop like why are sunglasses on already. Oh, there are Joes. Wow, they really suit you. You look a bit more like a fuckboy with it.
52:54Ronnie Karam: So he poses, or yeah, he poses with his biceps. He's like, look at my arms. Yeah, they look good. Oh my god, look at those biceps. Take it off. Oh my god, you're so sexy. Yeah, fuckboy. I'm a fuckgirl. I'm kidding. Let's do it right now. Seriously, right now. And Kat's getting uncomfortable. It's like, what is going on in here?
53:16Ben Mandelker: and then at the other end of the table Aisha's asking Masi about his experience and he's saying how he was a captain so this is actually like a downgrade for him and Nathan's like I like that man you're adoptable that's cool I love someone who is adoptable and so Joe's like he's listening he's like all upset he's like when I first started working with Nathan you know we were we were brothers but now I almost feel like we're a divorced couple and we're forced to work in the same job it's an uncomfortable place to be and I really don't believe that we're going to find a way back to our ground we know we don't care jen and cooper
53:51Ronnie Karam: still kind of flirting she's like oh my god look at cooper like he's wasted bro because like look at his hair like it's starting to get like all messed up oh my gosh i'm gonna put your hair up right and back oh my gosh look at that what a handsome boy i have i'm basically from charleston now you want me to like look at my hand and put it in your hair like your mom

54:39Ronnie Karam: And she's like, oh my God, your hair is crazy. I'm just putting the vibes out there. I just want the vibes out there. We all have needs. Am I right, guys? Yeah. And everyone's kind of cringing, basically, because it's another Jen moment. And Joy's just watching this and she says, I think Jen is a venomous person, but she would learn the odd way. It's calm in life. The universe is watching you. Not my problem.
55:06Ben Mandelker: so jen goes to the bathroom and cats like what is happening coop i mean it's just like so disrespectful and if i were you i'd be like what are you doing he's like yeah it's a lot for me because like i don't know she's like don't say that like i understand why you wouldn't why you wouldn't like say something like honestly i want to cry it's like really bad it's actually like
55:27Ronnie Karam: really hurtful it's like oh we'll talk more later you're messing up our our act that we got going for people no this is why you wanted to have an act so that you could do whatever the fuck you wanted and that she would have to just sit there and shut up and take it yeah sorry sorry your act's
55:45Ben Mandelker: not working out for you because you could there you can still shut it down with jen and not betray anything about the secrecy but you're not you're not shutting it down which means you're enjoying it
55:57Ronnie Karam: yeah and he's all yeah he's not only not shutting it down he's doing it back to her which he continues to do for the rest of the night and then he pulls this like oh i don't understand am i hurting someone's feelings you know what you're doing it's not the first time and then you continue to do it all night even after she cries so whatever so um he gives her a napkin he's like wipe your face and she's like no i don't want to be like obvious that i'm crying you're sitting at the table crying with like 10 other people they don't yeah yeah and she goes
56:30Ben Mandelker: i mean we all know jen is controversial but like i'm so disappointed because cooper like he doesn't even care that he made me feel less than that's like not so cool so yeah that's how i feel um so then they go um uh they're walking it's at dinner after dinner and asia and kat are like talking and it's just like am i dreaming are jen and cooper being flirty she's like yeah it's like so disrespectful you know it's like okay well i'm on the watch don't you worry
57:03Ronnie Karam: guys i don't know if you remember this but nathan's a father now so he goes home after the dinner uh to be with gail and the baby and then um mossy comments on asia's dancing because Asha is Ashing hard. She's just like that.
57:23Ben Mandelker: She just loves to get up in a
57:24Ronnie Karam: face and do like a left-a-bar.
57:27Ben Mandelker: Yeah.
57:30Ronnie Karam: She's like, I'm sorry about that DJ person. He's like, I'm really sorry. He's like, keep dancing. She's like, all right,
57:38Ben Mandelker: I'm back at it.
57:43Ben Mandelker: So then Kaylee and Joe are dancing and Kaylee's like, I just love what we have. He's like, no sex before marriage. She goes, it's hard when my panties are wet for you. I was like, not for Joe. Please, Kaylee, I like you. Raise your standards.
58:03Ronnie Karam: Yeah, so Kat and Coop sit down to talk and he's like, so what's been going on with Jan? She's like, well, she's not a good co-worker and she slacks off a lot. She doesn't give a fuck about me. and like literally flirting with you in front of my face like and then you don't shut it down that's also a problem coo it's like well i struggle to say no though i'm a yes man but you won't you're like that with everybody but her yeah you said no to her very clearly people like that always are not like that with the person they're being to like i'm just i can never say no to anybody but that's all you do to her what are you talking about all you do it's a great point
58:44Ben Mandelker: and he's like, I don't know, I don't want to I don't want to hurt people's feelings, I don't want to be it's like, you would rather like, not hurt Jen's feeling than you would the girl that you are have some sort of romantic affection for so it's all turned around and stupid the whole situation is quite frankly very stupid and as the great Aviva Drescher once said you both look class, quite frankly so Coop is like, oh did you just hit me with a what are we because because because cat says like shut it down because what are we shut down he's like wait you hit me with the what are we she was like like what are we doing it's like well we decided you the whole secret relationship thing to make things uncomplicated and now it's about it's not the exact opposite wow who could have seen this coming
59:32Ronnie Karam: whoops yeah and it's so stupid and then they keep cutting they keep cutting to joe and what's her face making out in the hot tub and getting hot and heavy and then it keeps cutting the cat being like i just don't understand what's going on in our relationship and then it cuts to making out i just don't get it so funny the way they edit this show is cracks me up so now it's four hours before charter everyone's waking oh well joe and kaylee go to spend the night together and he's like condom so yeah so now the next morning um nathan comes back and calls the deck meeting and he's like okay what i've been thinking in terms of shifts three hours you know is just it doesn't work for some people because they wake up three times so we're gonna change it and now joe's on night shift midnight to six in the morning it's like what the fuck oh okay don't make me so you're only gonna change you're only gonna change the graveyard shift or anchor watch rather for the person that you don't like on certain days what do you want to bet and then he admits it he's like yeah i don't like that guy fuck him yeah this is shitty too like they're both they're
1:00:51Ben Mandelker: both assholes but like nathan this is your lead deckhand he's the one who's supposed to be like delegating he's he takes on the responsibilities when you're not around so like if you're doing something at one part of the boat joe is supposed to want to be the one to oversee the other deckies and you're gonna put him on the graveyard shift like what nathan's gonna hear it from sandy on this one because this is just a stupid thing to do i'm sorry nathan's a fucking terrible manager this is a terrible manager joe is a terrible employee they both are just hideous together
1:01:24Ronnie Karam: yeah nathan's saying well you know he's been talking mad shit about me and it's best for us not to interact with each other so i'll just schedule him at times where he can't see me wow super mature you know it's too bad you didn't fuck up your life with all of this personal stuff that you did because wow you'd really be getting tons of work after people watch this
1:01:46Ben Mandelker: I know, right? Your management style was wonderful and not petty at all. So then Jen is talking to Kat in the laundry room. And Jen's like, hey, are we good? Because my wrist is hurting today, and that usually means I'm not good with someone. So I feel like the vibe has been a little off. And she goes, honestly, in the workplace, Jen, I'm going to be so honest. You have been completely disrespectful towards me. And I feel like lately how you've been kind of putting work on me that I don't think you should have been. And, like, for example, the vacuuming situation was a joke. Like, now it's just, like, almost, like, piling up.
1:02:22Ben Mandelker: And I'm, like, biting my tongue. And it's just, like, it's, like, fine. But, like, whatever.
1:02:27Ronnie Karam: But, like, what else is piling up? Like, what? She's like, yeah, and we're roommates. And you're, like, flirting with Cooper, you know? Like, I don't respect someone that treats me poorly. It's not acceptable. So she's like, um, well, like, I do apologize. because Cooper asked if I was okay and I was like, no, because you and Kaylee specifically have been getting really clicky and it's thrown off the vibe. No, no, now's not the time to accuse somebody else of being clicky, Jen. This is why nobody likes you. Come on. Oh my gosh. And Kat says, I like you as a person, but our relationship has changed.
1:03:06Ronnie Karam: I don't need your half-assed apology. So Jen just, she's like, okay, see ya.
1:03:13Ben Mandelker: So Jen says, I never try to go out and hurt people's feelings. Like, that's not me. And Kat has always had my back. And I don't want to piss her off after, like, you know, piss her off whether that be work-related or boy-related. And now it just feels like I'm completely alone on an island. It fucking sucks. So I did appreciate that Jen acknowledged that Kat's always had her back. Normally, someone who's, like, as obnoxious as this doesn't even have that awareness. So I did appreciate that from her. So meanwhile, hey, deck team, everyone, guess what? Charter number eight, preference sheet meeting.
1:03:48Ben Mandelker: Get into your seats, okay? It's going to be exciting. Can you believe it's charter number eight? And guess what? It's a girl's trip. Insert the woo-hoo here. Okay, who is ready for this one, huh?
1:04:01Ronnie Karam: All right, we're going to have Penny, Michelle, Christina, Hither, Reggie, and Pooley. Well, their friend Kelly unfortunately can't be with them due to last minute emergency. So she's with them in spirit in the form of one of Norma's dates, a blow up doll. Well, isn't that sweet?
1:04:20Ben Mandelker: Yeah, she had all of her limbs amputated, but they are going to have her as a blow up doll, which I'm sure she'll enjoy seeing when this airs. So what's going on? And Joe's like, the group wants to dive off the famous blue cave snorkeling and explore the natural wonder setting the tone for the day and the adventure. and she's like oh michelle doesn't eat any meat or vegetables or fruit she totally eats carbs
1:04:44Ronnie Karam: yes michelle i'm starting to turn into this i used to eat like a salad every day at least and a lot of fruits and veggies other than that but ever since that stuff started going around ever since the food you know you couldn't eat vegetables or whatever that was my excuse for like what a week or two i guess it's not over but i just never went back i just i'm just sticking to bagels bread and cheese that's it i've been eating so many carbs and like i keep telling
1:05:14Ben Mandelker: myself ben stop eating the carbs tour is coming up you want to look cute on stage and um i'm just racing in the other direction like hardcore going into carbville so i don't know what's going on So good. I also. I mean, it's been such a happy life, I have to say. Yeah, it's great. But also you what? I don't know. I don't know what my but also is. But what I will say is that everyone's back to work. And provisions are coming. Provisions. And then we were just saying how we never see provisions anymore. But here come provisions. And amongst the provisions is a delivery of a bouquet of flowers. And the card says, it just says to ma ren.
1:05:57Ronnie Karam: so jen is holding okay okay this is so annoying because he texted luke texted keep your eye out for the little surprise tomorrow and it's flowers it's like grocery store flowers really yeah don't really have me waiting all damn day for some shitty trader joe's flowers sir seriously so um
1:06:19Ben Mandelker: so jen is sitting here holding this bouquet she's like anyone anyone get a bouquet who's my rain Who's Ma Rain? Do we have a mother on board? And her last name is Rain? Who is Ma Rain? Ma Rain? So finally Joy shows up. She's like, oh yes, these are from me. They're from Luke. And Jen's like, what? And she like looks squarely in the camera like, are you kidding me? She does. That was
1:06:42Ronnie Karam: so good. Straight into the camera like, what?
1:06:47Ben Mandelker: She's like, I cannot believe it. I mean, she is mortified. She's horrified. And she's indignified she is like she's like i can't even do this at me she is i mean i feel bad that she's sat embarrassed i think like i know it's time for her to move forward though it's like
1:07:10Ronnie Karam: like girl this was like a hookup it didn't work out i mean she didn't she's acting like she was dating this guy and this is so unfair girl please and joy was flirting with he was flirting with joy at the same time as you right in front of you. I can't with Jen. She's ridiculous. And she's embarrassing herself by acting like this. By storming off. She really is. And Kaylee asks if she's okay. And she's like, no, I need a break. Fuck this charter season. Seriously.
1:07:39Ben Mandelker: And they're like, what? And she's like, oh. And she just goes in the bathroom. She just locks herself in the bathroom and starts crying. It was so funny. I mean, Jen, he did you dirty for sure. but also like you cannot let this man have this power over you and he got fired too like the karma worked out for him she was just way too but she is just if she can have a tantrum if she can have a moment she always is going to take it and I was just
1:08:12Ronnie Karam: in the coming up next week clips we see her texting Luke she's like whatever fuck you you're an asshole or something and he immediately calls Tori's like oh I got kind of a weird text from Jen what the hell

1:12:27Ben Mandelker: Hi, it's Brooke DeVard, host of Naked Beauty, and I want to talk about how I upgrade my hosting experience. There's a moment just before guests arrive when my home stops feeling like a series of rooms and it becomes an atmosphere. The light settles, the air shifts, and then the beautiful scent of jasmine, rose, and fig fill the air. It feels warm and considered. That's what Pura does. It turns fragrance into environment. A collection of beautiful, clean fragrances, all controlled from your phone. Choose your sense of place at Pura.com. Is there anything better than your team bringing home a W?
1:12:57Ben Mandelker: How about a personal W for your health? If you're 45 or older and at average risk, it's time to screen for colon cancer. Now the number one cancer killer of people under 50 in the U.S. It's easy to put off when screening feels like a hassle, but Cologuard Plus makes it simple. It's non-invasive, requires no prep, can be completed at home in about 15 minutes, and is 95 % effective. Talk to your healthcare provider or request Cologuard Plus online, Rx only.
