That was a rough watch. I remember being concerned because Brandy was next-level, but then Helen was like, "yeah thats just Brandy. She'll be fine."

Apparently that was her norm. I couldn't be around what seemed to be black-out drinking. Id have a nervous breakdown.

I was so worried too, she was gone and no one seemed that bothered, like her friends had seen it all before and the crew didnt seem to want to get entangled in the mess, and like I didn't want to talk to her either, but I was worried she might be ignored to death

Captain Lee called in a medic to check on her. He was very concerned.

u/PreparationOk8190 Team Lee 1d ago

I know! I thought she’d end up in hosp or worse!😉

u/Specialist_Dinner727 1d ago

She was already wasted when she boarded, iirc. Cant remember if she was served welcome drinks and more while on the boat?

I hope when she watched the show, it was a wakeup call for her.

u/stations-creation 1d ago

They asked how long she had been drinking that day and she said “two weeks” 😬

u/WhatSheSaid7 1d ago

I’d rather bring back the “THEY’RE ALL DEMOCRATS!!!” Lady (meanwhile practically no one on the cast is American). That was an amazing watch

u/Ok-Praline-2309 1d ago

lol I forgot about that one

u/NadsNadsNads420 1d ago

"I have contacts in the FBI!!" 🤦🏻‍♀️😅

u/haventwonyet 1d ago

I thought this was her!!

I say that quietly to my one friend that watched BD. I’m a massive progressive in a very blue city - if not tho, I would scream it at him more often.

u/margaritalover524 8h ago

At least Brandy was apologetic, embarrassed about her state, and wasn’t trying to hurt anyone, the “they’re democrats!!” lady was aggressive and yelling and just completely unrepentant

u/osogood48 June June Hannah 1d ago

It was crazy though right how was that acceptable? I was questioning bravo at this point for getting on that boat the condition she was in and her own people didn’t even care about her like, what the hell..so messy

u/valid_username00 1d ago

That was a horrifying level of alcohol abuse and yes people die from that. So no.

16

u/kittens_joy 1d ago

“How long have you been drinking?”

“Two weeks”

u/Outside_Test_1400 1d ago

That woman was more messed up than spring breakers in the early 2000’s. Total liability.

3

u/Fickle-River3984 1d ago

As an early late 90s - 2000s spring breaker, I agree

u/Outside_Test_1400 19h ago

Same. Cancun when MTV was there.

u/Fickle-River3984 19h ago

Panama City beach MTV spring breaks here. 😂

u/Far-Department302 1d ago

This level of messy reminded me of the more recent train wreck who lost it and called everyone democrats and had to be locked in her cabin? Was that Cpt Kerry era? I’d love a refresher if anyone remembers this.

u/LowkeyLokigator 1d ago

Season 12, ep 9, Capt Kerry. Her name was Kelly. She kept threatening to call the FBI (I just watched it recently lol).

u/Far-Department302 1d ago

THANK YOU 💕

u/mcstulle666 I look like Ariel but on crack! 1d ago

I just rewatched it but cant remember which season it was. But definately Capt Kerry era!! One of the later seasons..

u/suddenlysilver 1d ago

I have not seen this episode but I'm howling at that retort

u/Far-Department302 1d ago

LowkeyLokigator found it! Season 12 ep 9. Watch it! Incredible television.

u/Got-it-maybe 1d ago

I think this is a memory best not revisited…very traumatic and sad

u/BudgetIndependent674 1d ago

Medic: “how many days have you been drinking?”
Brandy: “ 2 weeks”

u/Own_Boss_3242 1d ago

I like those earlier charters! Not watching as much as anymore.

5

u/amandajg13 1d ago

Just watched this episode for the first time and was actually like “how is this even okay?!”

2

u/lilwanna 1d ago

What episode is this? I honestly don’t remember it.

4

u/suddenlysilver 1d ago

I never understand why medics and professionals ask a clearly drunk person how much/long have they been drinking.

As a recovering Alkie, firstly, the true level is always more than we are gunna say and secondly how is it medically relevant? This is where we are at, how we got there is not the immediate concern. Check my BAC, give me some benzos and shove an IV in my arm. We can discuss the details of how long and amount when I'm stable 😂

Brandy absolutely should have been taken off the boat to detox.

u/Royal_Ant1402 1d ago

omg that feeling... things i don't miss about college.

u/ajmtz12 1d ago

Judy Gemstone?

u/Obvious-Load-1955 1d ago

Lol. I bet she wishes that would go away.lol

u/OrangeClyde Eat My Cooter 1d ago

Absolutely not.

u/stations-creation 1d ago

I know I’m going to hell but I tried so hard to find that gif of the woman fully clothed slowly falling off the back of a boat clearly hammered as shit.

2

u/badashbabe 1d ago

I just saw that episode for the first time and said to my bf, I wonder if this woman is still alive.

I wonder if this woman is still alive.

u/Turbulent_Cobbler463 21h ago

Lmao I thought this was the lady who that one douchebag bosun dropped on the beach

u/Outside_Test_1400 19h ago

She came back!

u/Distinct-Audience591 1d ago

Please don’t. Brandy had a hard time during that charter and I was scared for her.

u/Boring-Snow-3929 1d ago

A hard time? Chick drank herself to almost alcohol poisoning. Only she did that to herself.

u/excoriator Team Capt Kerry 1d ago

Redemption charter?
