Izzy is dragging her feet and wishing she was a deckhand a little over 24 hours into the job.

For all of Eddies stressing, it really seems like interior is in the tougher spot right now.

Francesca tells Elizabeth that shell need to step up in place of Izzy during dinner.

I do love when department heads shit-talk crew members to other crew members.

So Izzy unpacks the guests bags and complains while doing it nothing new there.

I have to wonder: Has shereallyever worked interior?

But Lee says hell consider it, so long as they make it through the charter.

Good, because if anyone needs three stews, its Charley.

Its dinner, and everyone needs help.

(Bugsy Drake would never.)

Like, boy, if you knew what theyve been through!

While Rachel tells Lee there were issues with service, Francesca ducks into a closet to sob.

Elizabeth even walks right by the closet.

Then Francesca is talking with Lee in the wheelhouse and sobbing again.

I surely thought that moment from the trailer would happen after the first charter?

Lees confessional response is one thing (Holy shit, theres no crying in yachting!

Then Francesca leaves to cry herself to sleep.

Francesca is taking a note from Elizabeth and Shane and meditating in her room to get ready.

But this morning, all the pressure is on Rachel.

Francesca reads off the omelet orders, and Rachel is petrified.

And, look, Im all for ordering fancy eggs on vacation, but come on.

The boat doesnt have the right pans, either, so Rachel is messing up and throwing away eggs.

Pretty soon, shes sobbing and calling it the worst experience of her career.

(Clearly something worse is yet to come if the trailer shows her threatening to walk off!)

I am turning on a dime on these bitches.

Also, Lexis fit, he admits.

Yachting is so me, he says on his second day of his first charter.

Again, its only the second episode!

Shane isnt answering his radio, so Lee is mad and then Eddie is mad, too.

Shouldnt he be rinsing off some deck?

On the beach, Izzy is telling Eddie that she wants to be a deckhand.

And she does it well, so Eddie is down to take her onboard!

The whole crew is listening at this point andentertained.

(And it’s possible for you to just tell everyone is exorbitantly drunk.)

And thats the thing: James is just a freaking deckhand!

What is Shay so bent out of shape over?

Theyre not going to get to go on a date or anything, much less fuck!

Hesworkingfor them, and not like that!

Plus, every one of those guests thinks James is hot.

So the crew brings out the cake and James, and Lexi loves it and Shay is not impressed.

Next week, well learn if Shay went to bed without Jamess cake or Lexis cake.

Anyone else feel like Eminem doesnt deserve second billing there?

Its already looming over this season!

If I understand Eddie right, the line has colored markers, and each one is a shot.

Rachel and Izzy are currently neck and neck in the race to be the shows best narrator.

Rachel had my favorite line of the week after her breakdown: I think these guests are bitchy.
