I think Nate is realising how terribly it’s going for him and he’s now so paranoid that he is reading too much into the smiling etc.
Definitely. I don’t really understand how he got bosun in the first place honestly,he may well be a good deckhand (altho imo not outstanding in any way!) but he’s clearly an appalling leader and that should’ve been perfectly obvious. I suppose it’s ‘good’ tv to have him and Gael there.
On another note, I keep getting recommended posts on socials for below deck and the hate Gael is getting is awful. Like how is she the problem?! She’s newly postpartum with her first baby, in a strange country with absolutely no support. Nathan is dismissive and doesn’t cut her an inch of slack for feeling wobbly, which is
rit. But yea, it’s disappointing but not surprising that so many of the general public seem to blame her for being upset but also for Nathan’s poor performance.
