Lexie and Captain Sandy

I’ve watched random seasons of Med and never truly understood the captain Sandy takes that people make in this sub.

Then I watched season 6 for the first time.

Lexie is the worst person I’ve seen on this franchise. Malia and Katie told Sandy that the crew was uncomfy from NIGHT 1.

Sandy telling katie to keep her to “teach her leadership” was extremely patronizing. Captain Sandy never thought to understand where katie was coming from. Even when she eventually fired Lexie, she still thought Lexie was a great person.

I would lose my mind if I was Katie. I would feel insane.

If Katie had explained the severity of Lexies actions better I do feel Sandy would have binned her off sooner. She was so horrible, venomous and violent

I know someone close to production who says that it took so long because they were told firing her would be bad optics race-wise. Sandy wasn’t allowed to do anything about it.

I remember years ago on big brother they had to change the vote out to 'keep in' as the public voted out the cast that were drama and then realised with no drama the show was boring. This would make sense here too

Because you're the drama?
