In the most recent episode of “Below Deck Mediterranean,” the deckhand Iain ignores Captain Sandy’s directions on the beach picnic. Iain returns early to the yacht, leaving Joe and Gael to do all the heavy lifting and set up on their own. Joe is unhappy with this choice since he believes Iain abandoned his leadership duties by refusing to help.

Joe and Gael are rushing to finish setup when Iain radios falsely that they are on their way, leaving the guests restless as they wait impatiently for the beach adventure. In an interview, Gael shows his dissatisfaction by pointing out Iain’s lack of preparation and communication.

Aesha arrives to find that no games have been prepared as initially anticipated, and the setup is incomplete. Joe adds that because Iain didn’t want to prepare ahead, they ran out of time.

Iain’s handling of the problem is criticized in private by Joe and Gael, who believe he ignored their efforts to save the setup. They both believe that their attempts to make the most of a badly handled situation have been mistreated and underappreciated.

The visitors, unaware of the tension behind the scenes, enjoy their picnic lunch amid all the chaos. Despite the internal strife within the crew, Aesha attempts to salvage the situation, feeling comforted by the positive response.

Chef Jono is still having trouble with his cooking in the most recent episode of “Below Deck Mediterranean,” as he gets mixed reviews for both lunch and dinner. Captain Sandy deems Jono’s attempt at seafood gazpacho unprofessional because he had to Google a recipe in response to Gigi, a guest, who questions him about an off-putting spice.

Aesha is discreetly appalled by the bland presentation and flavour as she observes Jono’s error with the overcooked lava cake covered with melted ice cream during dinner service. The guests’ poor attitude toward dessert is indicative of their general dissatisfaction with the dinner.

Chief Stew Aesha contemplates how to confront Jono’s repeated food errors, understanding that her increasing mistrust of his meals may affect patron contentment and the yacht’s standing.
