Below Deck Mediterranean‘s Captain Sandy Yawn filed a report after she found out that Luke Brumer soiled Nathan Gallagher‘s sheets with his bodily fluids.
During the Monday, July 20, episode of the Bravo show, Captain Sandy sat Luke down to discuss his indiscretion, saying, “I now have to write a report. This is a serious offense.”
Sandy elaborated in a confessional. “What Luke did, it’s potentially a fireable offense,” she noted. “It’s unprecedented.”
While the captain planned to “give it some thought,” she warned the deckhand that it would still be documented.
“I’ll make my decision on how to handle this after this charter,” she added. “But in the meantime — because of the severity of the situation — I need to write this report.”
She continued: “It’s official. That’s something other captains will see and I hope Luke takes away from this that he should have consideration for your bunkmate. There’s protocols.”
Luke, for his part, was “devastated” by the turn of events.
“My career means so much to me. I’m so scared that this could be the end of it for me,” he told the cameras. “And for something like this.”
Later in the episode, Luke pulled Captain Sandy aside to express his concerns about Nathan still being furious with him. Luke thought it would make more sense for him to leave, which Sandy didn’t seem surprised by. (Viewers previously saw her checking to see if there were other available deckhands in the area.)
Season 11 featured a franchise first when Luke hooked up with Genevieve Lillie in his shared cabin with Nathan. They moved down to Nathan’s bed and Luke finished in the bosun’s sheets, which he didn’t tell Nathan. To make matters worse, Luke didn’t replace Nathan’s sheets and continued to let Nathan sleep in a soiled bed.
“I actually get pissed off the more I think about it. It is so disrespectful,” Nathan said in a July episode about the scandal. “I’m not laughing. Do you want me to go to Captain Sandy and tell her about it?”
Nathan called Luke’s behavior “disrespectful.”
“It’s the fact that Luke hasn’t said anything about this in three days,” Nathan explained.. “He had the opportunity to tell me — and the fact that he hasn’t told me and has gone around the boat and everyone else is talking about it. That’s what’s pissing me off.”
He continued: “It’s f***ing rude because you disrespected me. Now, if you keep up with your job, it’s not gonna end, bro. If you piss me off, the slightest amount, you’ll be [heading out] with your bags packed.”
Below Deck Med airs on Bravo Mondays at 8 p.m. ET. New episodes stream the next day on Peacock.
