Im not a micromanager.

But can we have snacks?

they ask, in a moment so perfectly evocative of what Seanthinksthe guests want versus what the guestsactuallywant.

But at the same time, what is this show without the Stud of the Sea himself?

How could you not miss this man?

Lee and Sean engage in a bit of captain banter before Lee informs Sean the water taxi is waiting.

Now get off my boat, he says, in yet another perfect confessional in just minutes.

Eddie looks a bit surprised but agrees to treat Lee the same despite the news.

I will run your ass off if you dont, Lee tells him.

We awake the next morning to the sweet sound of goats bleating on the shore.

So calm the fuck down, lets be honest, he says.

The morning is full of these sorts of minor messes that dont actually amount to much.

Girl, bye, Rayna says, within full earshot as shes walking away.

And Rachel pronounces the breakfast special as shashushka rather than shakshuka, to my personal irritation.

Nikki doesnt leave without first stirring the pot and alluding to the hiccups with her room.

Not bad for a first charter!

Although, of course, Captain Lee disagrees.

On his night off!

And Fraser sees right through it all.

You cant warm to an ice cube, he says of her management.

But before going to bed, Rayna texts an I miss you to someone named Issa.

Oh Rayna, why did you do this?

Will Rayna tell Jake about this next episode?

Almost certainly not, but we will watch a belligerently drunk guest fight with his wife.

Raynas not the only one on board whos talking to somebody.

Really, how could you not miss this man?
