If this werent ourBelow Deckseason-eight finale, Id be spending all of this week waiting for the next episode.
Has anyone on this show reacted worse to getting fired?
Elizabeths firing does get a slew of reactions from the crew.
And, you know, shes right!
Hopefully Elizabeth got through to her energy healer on the drive to the airport.
You cant get much more eventful than that, so its pretty quiet until dinner.
(To be fair, I do not blame them!
After a bit of awkwardness, everyone figures, Fuck it, cake!
Well, everyone except Rachel, who is downright offended watching the crew dig into this cake.
She leaves for a smoke, and Francesca eventually confronts her to see if everythings okay.
That was the most distasteful thing that Ive ever seen in my life, she says.
And we are talking about a cake!
What was everyone supposed to do, send it back?
Eat it solemnly in honor of Elizabeth?
Its a bit of a tough situation since Lee is clearly more on Francescas side than Rachels.
He had actually seen Elizabeths mistakes, whereas hes only hearing about Francescas from Rachels anti-Francesca viewpoint.
Is this what Elizabeth meant when she said karma would come for Francesca?
As she tells us, getting angry wont work with Francesca.
Everyone is leaving tomorrow, he tells the crew, who are varying degrees of confused and worried.
So this crew does what any charter yacht crew would do and drinks about it!
Its a bit of a weird feeling to watch this crew leave in the morning.
How are Francesca, Ashling, Izzy, and Rob going to handle their mandatory self-isolations back in Australia?
Whats going to happen to Rachel and Vincenzo?
(A spoiler fromWWHL: They break up.)
How many days of quarantine will it take before Jamess mom kicks him out?
Rachel is next to leave and excited to finally get to leave the boat for real.
I hope her issues with the crew havent scared her off from coming back.
Izzy follows after due praise from both Eddie and Captain Lee for her work as lead deckhand.
Remember when she was a stewardess?
And thats our season!
I dont know if this crew did, but I also dont know if this crew needed to.
Plus a looming pandemic on top of it all!
What more could a boy ask for?
Aside, of course, from a fulfilling ending.
Tips
