Below Deck: Can Kevin handle the heat or will he crack under pressure?
By Amanda Cline
This season of Below Deck is off to a great start if you consider a lot of drama in a short amount of time a great start.
Let’s get this straight, the charter guests for this episode of Below Deck are a mess. A shrimp-pasta-before-the-first-charter mess. I don’t think any of them can even stand as they get on the boat. The primary charter guest’s wife is the one who was obsessed with Chef Adrian last season, and she seems a bit sad that she can’t observe him in the kitchen. Chef Kevin just doesn’t have the same…anything.
Captain Zeus!
So, they take the next best thing – Captain Lee. I’m pretty sure grabbing his butt like that is not appreciated, but they dub him the Zeus on the water so he allows it. It really isn’t acceptable bevahior to grab anyone’s butt, though. I feel bad for the primary charter guest because his wife seems very interested in every guy except him.
On the deck crew side of things
Abbi has a lot of beautiful, long, curly red hair blowing about in the breeze. Unfortunately, beautiful, long, curly red hair is definitely a hazard working around machinery, such as a boat. Not to mention, if she’s around the food.
Abbi says, “Suddenly everyone is telling me that the boat is going to sink because of my hair,” as Kevin tells her, “Your hair almost went in the horseradish.” Abbi, put your hair up.
A seafood extravaganza with no seafood? How dreadful.
So Kevin wants to have a seafood extravaganza and forgot to order any seafood. Kate Chastain says, “I wanna use every dish on this boat and fill it with seafood!”
Spoiler alert: they did not catch any fish. They did catch an eel but they let it go. Kevin made do, but I mean, both the “seafood” and “extravaganza” part were missing from the seafood extravaganza.
Kevin is so concerned with how the interior is doing their job, that he forgot to order seafood. Stay in your galley, Kevin. If you want the food served and no one is around to serve it, throw on a shirt and bring it out!
