I like how Rachel stood up to the ridiculous preference sheet and how she held her ground. She did a service for all chefs everywhere.

[@nettieharrison4784]

Elizabeth honey Franchesca was not rude to you. If you think she was then you have no idea what rude really is!

[@anniec.]

Elizabeth keeps saying how rude and disrespectful Francesca was but honestly she was NOT rude at all! She spoke to her in a direct, calm authoritative tone like a BOSS should! Elizabeth is a complete baby that can't take responsibility for her own actions. Grow up and get a proper work ethic!

[@freed4q628]

Francesca is just another self absorbed terrible manager with limited people skills. She fits the mold of Kate and Hannah. An inflated ego because she is "chief" stew. She's a stewardess with a little seniority, period.

[@kidkelly8197]

F4 Q and I'd like you to give examples of this so called inflated ego you say Francesca displayed? Damn keyboard warriors spitting crap at people with no backup! As CS they have a huge responsibility of their staff and other staff and the guests (e.g. The mustard gas incident) for the smooth operation of internal and excursions

If Elizabeth thinks Francesca was rude, I wonder how she would have survived Kate lmao (I personally like Kate and don't think she's rude but she is much harsher than Francesca!) 😂 Elizabeth is a liability and needs to go... She's just not cut out for this! Also thank god Captain Lee is back! I was SOOOO disgusted by and sick of Sandy, Tom and Malia! Eddie and Captain Lee are a breath of fresh air!

She ( the chef) was 100% correct about these guests. They should never have been accepted as charter guests EVER.

[@michelejohnson28]

I’m sure they were accepted and encouraged by production. It sounds like someone thought it would be great tv to have an extreme preference sheet(s), and watch sparks fly. They severely miscalculated what was appropriate and what other factors were coming into play (covid starting up). I hate when artificial chaos is used on reality shows. It’s unnecessary and makes a show unwatchable past the first few seasons.

[@janegotshalk6105]

Spot on! This is a chef who cares about her reputation and is not going to let a group of pretentious spoiled brats ruin it. Even though she was over the top with Captain Lee, I don't think her behavior was that out of character for Michelin star chefs. They demand a lot out of themselves and she knew this was a set up for failure.

[@freed4q628]

So Rachael came back last nite, begging for her job back. The six flaming charter guests were obnoxious but nowhere near as despicable as some other groups on past shows. Clearly, this whole "drama" was scripted from top to bottom.

[@jamieb4904]

If you read the instructions on the bottle of oxyclean it specifically says do not use with bleach! I actually remember years ago reading the instructions on a bottle of oxyclean, and wandering why...so I guess now I know....mustard gas is the result

They painted Francesca in a very bad light this season as if she was lazy & not a good Chief Stew. She could have been more attentive to the guests with serving them the first few charters every meal; but people don’t realize everything that just be down behind the scenes of any working machine and that’s the ONLY thing I can even think of at all. I’m a manager myself and employees under you take everything SO personally as if everything isn’t just business and as if things don’t HAVE to be dealt with when in a higher position. Elizabeth doesn’t take responsibility or even just LEARN from mistakes, she just takes it personally! Those who are not managers usually don’t understand. I like Francesca. If my employees whined like Elizabeth did about the bleach, (or anything else) I wouldn’t have it -she could have simply said “yes ma’am I’m sorry” and just LEARNED from the mistakes!- she would be an amazing stew or even Chief stew someday if she wanted to absorb knowledge through experience. Francesca is just also painted as a bit “boring” this season since there wasn’t any good drama between crew members this year - were used to our fav CS (Kate) being a infamous one-liner spitfire who always had some drama w the girls. hope Francesca is back for another season! 🛥

Wow, she comes back but the back story of the lockdowns and covid makes sense. Still, her responses were OOT. I do agree that that preference sheet was ridiculous. She was obviously drunk too

[@anjar4196]

I think her response was so unprofessional, she could said it a different way,but having that mouth,it’s a no go. And she should know if you have to work on a boat you will be separated. But the way she spoke just not doing it for me.

[@Gypsymom08]

Up front there should be basic limits on what can be requested. They requested a special meal at every meal. Rachael wants to be a mom so the mouth control needs to happen ASAP. Her boyfriend levels her she says. Girl that gets old real quickly. Take care of your dang self. Self control is necessary. I’ll miss her bc she really put out effort & she was funny. Don’t tell me we will be seeing Ben & his bare butt as replacement.

[@Claws716]

I think the Chef was a little extra and partially used the guest as an out to go home to her boyfriend.(lame) Honey... chill out. Just calmly decline.

[@phoch2331]

Rachel rocks! I don't blame her one bit. But, why did she return to the boat? Did Bravo threaten to sue her, perhaps?

[@MissAkj]

Francesca is not rude, at all. She's Australian! Her and Hannah are similar in their blunt and matter-of-fact approaches. I get so frustrated when people interpret the Australian attitude as rude. Personally would have spoken to/ instructed Elizabeth with the bleach, exactly the same way. "It's bleach, get outside" - is what I heard. Elizabeth has zero urgency but I love her spirit.

@@myskibunny4191 Rachel keeps on saying I respected you Capt Lee but I think when she is under such a great amount of stress, sometimes the devil automatically comes out of the mouth. Rachel is a wonderful person and amazing chef but she needs help to control such mixed intense emotions that clouded her decision-making and depart from the reality of civility.
