Below Deck Down Under deck hand Nicolas Cattelan fumbled his first day on the job in Season 3 Episode 11. When Nicolas asked if it’s okay to mingle with the guests, Captain Jason Chambers warned him, “Yes, but no drinking and behave yourself.”
Unfortunately, during an after-dinner drinking game, one of the guests urged Nicolas to take a shot, and he complied. Uh oh. Did you not hear the captain say, “No drinking?” After stewardess Brianna Duffield reminded him of the no drinking on charter rule, Nic knew he screwed up.
Consequently, he will have to make a full confession to the captain the next day. Drinking on charter is a fireable offense. Will the Captain fire Nic or forgive him?
Below Deck Down Under Season 3 Episode 12 sneak peek
Can I just say how absolutely beautifully this show is filmed? The underwater shots are stunning.
The next morning, Bosun Nate Salmon asks Nic how everything went the night before. All Nic can think of is that he broke the no-drinking rule.
“[I’ve] kind of been going back and forth,” the deck hand says in a confessional. “I know that with Captain Jason, drinking on charter is an absolute no-go. There’s a reality where I just don’t bring it up … but it’s not the right way to go about things.”
At the same time as the guests are leaving for their excursion, Nic is practicing what he’s going to say to Jason. “Captain,” he says, “primary asked me to take a shot, and I did. Got a bit carried away.”
Nicolas admits he has an issue with getting in his own head. “I’m not the most experienced person on the crew by far,” he adds. As Nicolas putters around his cabin, he finally decides he needs to “do this properly.” It’s time to face the captain.
But that’s where the sneak peek leaves us hanging. We’ll just have to watch next week’s episode to find out how Jason responds to Nic’s confession.
Below Deck Down Under airs Mondays at 8/7c on Bravo. It also streams on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
