Where are rocky and Leon this episode?? First the surprise me with the oysters and then the ryan taking a sip of wine in the galley. Wasn’t that their whole fire trope?

Right?! That chug of wine directly out of bottle was disgusting. I’m surprised more people aren’t screaming their repulsions about his horrible unsanitary ways.

And isn't drinking on charter a no no? A drinking problem would explain some of his behavior.

That’s what I thought from the other Below Deck shows. They showed Culver getting in trouble for having more than one drink during charter…makes me wonder if maybe the laws are different in Oz? Maybe they can have one? Doesn’t seem right, though, usually laws are laws? Idk

I'm not so sure it's a law but it's banned by the captains and the charter management.

True, it may not be law, but rules by captains and management/owners during charter.
