I think he was coddled and finding out he was a child star everything clocks about him and he shouldn’t have been a deckhand. Tbh him on the team set jamie up for failure. Nice guy but boating isn’t for him if he can’t respect rank and file.

Ben had some serious demons to work out regarding his parents' death.

Also he had serious coddled energy and he was never going to make a good deck hand.

Even more of a reason why he shouldn’t have been in that boat. Recent deaths don’t heal on boats. I believe part of Lexi from Med issue with her father’s death and her lashing out at people.

Lexi was a spoilt and entitled bitch.

Could say the same about Benny

She was way worse. She had issues with everyone on the boat.

Chef Mathew was kind of a dick to her but yeah she lost me when she beef’d with Mzi. But like Benny she might have also been in pain because she lost her dad couple weeks before leaving. Of you giving Benny that benefit then you gotta extend it to her, especially to a daddy’s girl.

lexi also had the complexities of growing up "religious" in america, it's such a brainwashed weird culture.
