I needed to figure out how to make the next charter stronger.
More than anything — I needed a drink.

CHARTER 1
GISELLA DÍAZ: DECKHAND/STEWARDESS
PRODUCER
Well, that first charter was exciting, wasn’t it?
GISELLA
It was awesome! The guests were a riot. So fun.
PRODUCER
How did it go with the deck crew? Talk to us a bit about how you feel about the team at the end of this first charter.
GISELLA
Eldeck teames un sueño. I love working with Eli and Cameron, and Palmer is such a great leader. He’s really calm under pressure, you know? It’s kind of… impressive. Makes me want to get to knowhim better, learn from him. I like when the person in charge of me is laidback like that.
PRODUCER
You helped out a little on service this charter, too. How was that?
Gisella hides face, peeking through fingers before dropping hands to thighs with a sigh.
GISELLA
To me, service is always the hardest part of a charter. Working the exterior is hard work physically, but we get to have fun with the guests. On the interior, it’s all about precision — and it was clear to me very quickly that Ember runs her crew differently than Palmer.
PRODUCER
Meaning?
GISELLA
Well… she’s a bit of a perfectionist. And I guess you sort of have to be to be chief stew. But she was kind of cruel to Finn that first night, wasn’t she? I don’t think it was that serious. It’s just dinner.
PRODUCER
Yeah, that was pretty intense, huh?
GISELLA
So intense. Eli and I were torn between laughing and staying as invisible as possible so we didn’t get our heads bit off.
PRODUCER
Why do you think Finn and Ember clashed so much that first dinner?
