They also react to Hailey peeing in a cup and dodging questions about finances, and they critique Carole’s calm, incomplete answers about knowing Ghislaine Maxwell while never meeting Jeffrey Epstein. On Below Deck in Thailand, they feel the boat and service are a downgrade, call out delays like missing chips and slow juices, track budding hookups, note Taylor Ann Green as a charter guest, and flag serious concerns about deck leadership mistakes and an unsafe trash/anchor locker setup.

The conversation also examines Bronwyn’s emotional spiral while revisiting her San Francisco past, bringing boyfriend Brandon into a gathering tied to her separation from Todd, and her comment about burning everything down to start over.
