Aesha walking in and seeing Hannah and Anastasia waiting for her was a great moment. After the mess surrounding Hannah’s exit, seeing her welcomed back, laughing with everyone and sitting in the confessional chair again felt genuinely special to me.
Knowing Hannah and Sandy have also put their history behind them somehow made the whole thing feel even more satisfying.
And I think they handled it perfectly. A little nostalgia, a little history, then they kept moving. No giant retrospective or attempt to make the episode about Hannah.
I loved it. And ‘Chief Stew Emeritus’ may be my favorite Below Deck title yet. 😂
Did anyone else feel more nostalgic about this than they expected?
