Below Deck Mediterranean

Captain Sandy returns to Croatia at the helm of the mega-yacht Lady Michelle in hopes of guiding a new team through calmer waters along the stunning Dalmatian Coast. Previously a Chef to celebrities and the uber-wealthy, Mathew takes over the galley, where his ambitions quickly conflict with his on-board reality. An exceedingly accomplished yachtie, Katie joins as Captain Sandy's first new Chief Stew in years. Meanwhile, the deck team discovers one of their deckhands is greener than they could imagine. By the time the first charter guests arrive, the team is left in an impossible situation that threatens to derail the season before it can even begin.

Katie feels the weight of the demanding guests, while Lexi copes with a difficult personal issue. Malia works to get her new deck crew up to speed while preparing a bachelor and bachelorette party, but a very inexperienced deckhand has trouble keeping up. The rest of the charter season hangs in limbo as the crew wonders whether Chef Mat will return to the boat.

As the crew scrambles to get ready for a wedding that may or may not happen, Captain Sandy prepares to officiate for the first time. Meanwhile, Mat hopes to redeem himself after his disastrous first day and Katie sacrifices any breaks to help her team. Later that evening, the group's first night out leaves some crew members feeling the love, while others clash in a big way.

Love is in the air during the crew's first night out as Courtney celebrates Mzi's birthday and David becomes smitten with Malia, his supervisor on deck. As the second charter kicks off and a familiar charter guest returns, Katie implements a new stew rotation throwing Courtney into an unfamiliar role. Chef Mat aims to continue his positive momentum, but an accident in the galley threatens to take him back to square one. Meanwhile, the deck crew is put to the ultimate test when they are faced with their first night docking of the season.

As the second charter comes to a close, tensions between the crew continue to boil as Chef Mathew takes issue with a request. Courtney and Lexi bond over familial hardships, while the deckhands bond over their developing crushes. Meanwhile, an insult toward the deck team prompts a strong defense, leaving Katie struggling to keep the peace and the crew possibly short-handed.

After an explosive night out, the crew ponders whether they can forgive and forget. The third charter arrives with high energy and even higher maintenance. Meanwhile, when a crew member has a shocking change of heart, Captain Sandy must decide if she is willing to give one more chance.

Chef Mathew struggles to please an incredibly difficult charter guest, and Katie tries to reinvigorate Lexi as they try to make amends. Meanwhile, Courtney and Mzi grow closer, and David finally gathers the courage to ask Malia a burning question.

After striking out with Malia, his supervisor on deck, David navigates awkward waters. With a new charter underway, it's Courtney's turn on service leaving Lexi in laundry and Katie picking up the slack. Chef Mathew continues to prove he's worth a third chance, while tensions begin to brew between Captain Sandy and Malia.

Chef Mathew hopes to polish off his most successful charter to date, while Lloyd leads an Oktoberfest celebration. Katie struggles to keep the interior afloat leaving her to make a very unusual decision about her team.

A new crew member arrives on Lady Michelle and Katie is left in a bind when she finds out some surprising new information. Chef Mathew faces his most challenging preference sheet yet but is presented with an even bigger hurdle when there is a dangerous incident in the galley. Meanwhile, the biggest storm of the season hits, leaving the crew scrambled and worried.

A whiteout storm and continual bad weather forces the crew of Lady Michelle to find creative ways to keep the guests entertained. Meanwhile, David learns a lesson the hard way after making an important error and Katie's aversion to conflict comes to a head when she is forced to make a tough decision about her interior team.

The crew enjoys a day off at a Croatian national park. Mzi reveals his feelings for Courtney and David gets closer to Delaney, but a brutal injury threatens to derail one of the budding romances. Meanwhile, old tensions between Lexi and Chef Mathew resurface leading to an explosive stand-off that begins to unravel the close-knit crew.

When the crew of Lady Michelle grapples with the fallout of Lexi and Chef Mathew's fight, Captain Sandy steps in to figure out who stays and who goes. Mzi must face Courtney after his romantic gestures fall flat and Katie wrestles with the potential of another crew shakeup. Meanwhile, David's injured leg gets Malia in hot water with Captain Sandy. 

A new group of charter guests arrive with high spirits and even higher expectations. As Sandy joins the guests for dinner, Mathew puts extra pressure on himself to impress his Captain. And when Katie voluntarily goes short-handed in the stew department, Malia worries the workload will become overwhelming for the deck crew after rookie mistakes are made.

While Katie and Courtney celebrate completing a charter down a stew, Malia takes her deck crew to task for a surprising regression and David struggles with his role on deck. Later that evening, the group's night out leaves some crew members frustrated with the Chef. Back on the boat, a medical emergency leaves the crew emotionally shaken and perilously short-handed.

While Lloyd heads to the hospital, the crew tries to manage a group of demanding charter guests with only six people. Katie struggles under the weight of her decision to go down to two stews, while Malia grows frustrated with the pressure interior has placed on the deck crew. In the galley, Mathew grows increasingly insecure after receiving his first complaint of the season leading to a breakfast that threatens to derail the final charter.

In a hectic final day, the crew tries to pull off a picnic in an old Croatian fortress, while Mathew struggles to pull himself out of a spiral. Sandy, Malia and the deck crew face a dangerous anchor drag as an increasingly exhausted Katie tries to push through the final charter with only two stews. Meanwhile, the crew prepares to spend a week in Split together after the season.
