According to what Malia said on WWHL, in addition to the valium there was a marijuana pen. She also said (which made sense) that even with drugs such as valium that are legal, on a yacht like that you have to declare them and take with supervision because their first job is safety. If a person is under the influence of any sort of drug that could impact their reaction time in an emergency, the leaders on the yacht have to know that. I could understand that to a degree.
That said, Malia was just as smug and conceited on WWHL as she was in this episode. Sandy created a monster - she quit learning how to work through conflicts and started to learn that every time she stomped her feet and ran to the captain, she got her way. There were actually viewers who sent questions suggesting that Sandy and Malia worked the whole thing out to bypass casting and fill the boat with her friends. Malia of course dismissed all of that, but she couldn't seem to acknowledge the difficulties created on the boat when she kept getting her way and it kept creating more and more conflict with Hannah.
She and Bugsy were also highly critical of Hannah for getting sick on their day off, which really made me mad. I felt bad for Hannah's situation at that point. Kiko had been her buddy and her source of support throughout the charters. With him gone, she was surrounded by three couples and Pete. And both when they went out to the bar and the next day at the beach club, those three couples were VERY coupled up. Who on earth wants to hang with that on her own? Without any support or empathy, Hannah did absolutely the right thing to stay behind on the yacht for some peace and quiet. If she made any mistake, it was blaming not feeling well instead of flat out saying that humpfest 2020 on the beach wasn't that appealing to her with her boyfriend all the way in Australia.

Wow. I'm actually disgusted enough to not watch anymore. No one should be forced to bunk with anyone....just because some pre-set up plan to have Malia's boyfriend chef up. This whole season is so contrived and orchestrated...and gross. Is valium an illegal drug? What else was in that picture? Some sort of drug paraphernalia? The over reaction seems so dramatic. Valium is a benzodiazepine, & requires a prescription (at least in the US, & likely anyplace else). I’m sure Hannah likely has a prescription. The other thing was CBD, which isn’t illegal, as far as I know. And what a NERVE for Malia to go through Hannah’s personal belongings! My new name for Malia is Malicious. What a bratty little b!tch.

What a strange season. They hire a strange 2nd stew that is fired. Replaced the fired stew with Bugs...a person that constantly undermined her co-workers and Hannah on her first season. Cpt Sandy loves Bugs because she can place plastic beads on a table in a pretty pattern...little personality tho, like Sandy. They have a chef that admittedly didn't produce a "Vegas Theme" dinner to the guests expectations and he is fired mid charter (very stupid of the Cpt). Malia, Cpt Sandy's darling, just happens to have her chef Boyfriend visiting on the same day as Cpt Sandy needs a chef? Malia went very entitled 0-60mph to make sure she could share a cabin with her significant other and immediately took a pic of Hannah's "drugs" and sent it to the Cpt. Cpt Sandy gets her preferred stew in Bugs, Malia gets her boyfriend on the boat and they have attempted to shred Hannah's rep. I'm not sure what is to watch going forward. Admittedly...I did not like Bugs, Cpt Sandy or Malia before this season started but it's absolutely ruined it going forward to me.

Holly, I love the nickname!!!!!
Sandy made it clear at the start of the season - the crew's number one job is to make her happy. Sandy is happy when people are kissing up to her. Hannah and Kiko made the mistake of just doing their jobs to the best of their abilities without kissing up to her. Malia sucks up to Sandy non stop, so she's doing her number one job keeping Sandy happy. Bugs does the same thing.
Sandy is proving time and time again that she doesn't care about giving a great experience to the guests or keeping everyone safe. She cares about having her ego stroked. I'd be very curious to see how Sandy would handle things if she faced an emergency like Capt Lee did when Ashton went overboard. I'm not certain she could handle it ... nor that her focus after the fact would be teaching everyone what needs to be done to make sure they are all better moving forward.

I didn't find Malia that likeable during a previous season she had been on either. She seemed to be playing mind games with two guys on the boat at the same time.

Great point. She’s proving to be very self centered. Hey! Bet that’s why she and sandy relate to each other so well!

What a terrible episode. I would have thought after last season of the regular Below Deck that was so terrible towards Kate that we’d get more of a lighthearted season for Below Deck med.
I liked Malia going into this season but now I definitely do not. How spoiled can you be?! To throw a hissy fit about the cabin assignment to get your way.
Hannah posted a lot on her twitter about the situation with a picture showing that the Valium WAS a prescription. She said CBD is legal in Spain.
Hannah Ferrier @hannahferrier_ No...she went into my cabin AFTER we had the fight about cabin arrangements...Then went through my handbag and took a photo of my prescribed medication and legal CBD and sent it to Sandy.
On a happier note for Hannah- she confirmed she’s having a GIRL 💕

Ugh! I just watched and am so disgusted. First off C. Sandy's 'interview' of Tom was just her telling him how great his resume was. Did he even visit his Uncle? If his Uncle was 'very ill', why was he not concerned to take a job in case the Uncle dies and has to attend the funeral? Poor Hannah, I would feel so uncomfortable to move a cabin, Malicious shouldn't have pushed it, and certainly shouldn't have just to run to C. Sandy, who loves to make Hannah miserable. Further, what if one of those couples have a fight? Then what? I mean, you are all on a boat for chrissakes. I'd like to know what Captain Lee would have done about the valium. To me, that's not a big-time drug that would get people in trouble if there was an emergency. Acooker - I remember last season the people who sucked up to C. Sandy were treated better by her. So gross.

Sandy again after she told me that this career wasn't for me. The one funny thing was when Hannah said that Bugsy was 'wearing the table decor'. Lol.

I'd like to know what Captain Lee would have done about the valium. He did have this situation with Kat a few seasons ago. And he just made sure she had a prescription. Not a bunch of drama like Sandy seems to love. And that was after Kat was acting a fool on it the night before because she doubled her dose. Hannah hasn’t done anything like that, yet Sandy & Malicious are acting like she has meth on board or something. SMH.

I hope we get an extensive reunion for this season where Kiko and Hannah can say what they want to say.
Another area we haven’t mentioned with the cabin switch where Malia was also unprofessional was bring it up first at dinner. Clearly she worked it out in her mind - get Jessica and Rob on board wanting to be together first, and use the peer pressure of two couples to get her way. She should never have brought it up at dinner without talking to sandy and Hannah first. Sure, when a crew is first starting couples may room together, but this wasn’t that situation. She’s a manipulator in the most selfish way! And down the road when she faces blow back for it, she’ll claim it’s because she’s a woman and fail to entertain the idea that it could be that she’s an untrustworthy back stabber!

Here’s what Captain Lee has to say about the so called ranking for choice of cabin. He’s the best!
Captain Lee @capthlr Uh, sorry but the bosun doesn't outrank the Chief Stew, check the stripes and the Chef doesn't out rank the Chief Stew, they may be equal, and on some giga yachts the Chef is under the chief stew and the purser. Just wanted you to have the correct info.

Wow, it takes a lot for Capt Lee to speak up against what another captain has done / said! Even if you look at the chef and chief stew as equal in terms of rank, the tie break has to be in number of years as part of that crew. There was no reason other than petty mean girl play to say Hannah didn't deserve to be heard / respected in that fight.
I wouldn't mind a "watch at home with Kate" version of this episode!

I also had forgotten about a point that Hannah made on Twitter - Capt Sandy had put Hannah in charge of crew cabin assignments. It was her responsibility ... and instead of talking directly to Hannah when she disagrees with a decision, she overturns it and begs for favor from the crew by announcing it on the radio.

It was jaw dropping unprofessional. Even more so...you could tell she got a lot of gratification out of doing it. Like..."you want to see who has the power Hannah? I have the power. Look at what I can do!!"

Twitter is hot! Malia is not on there and turned off the comments on her Instagram to avoid the wrath. Capt Sandy is taking a beating and people are going after Bugsy too. Bugs is playing the victim and acting surprised people find fault in her.

I would certainly think that the Chief Stew holds the highest rank - she/he is the first point of contact for all of the guests and staff. No one has as much contact with the guests as the Chief Stew. Sigh, I adore Captain Lee.

Bugs is playing the victim and acting surprised people find fault in her. Malia might now be on there but there is a Twitter page called " Malia Below Deck Med" and whoever created that page, oh my, Malia is getting slammed. Yes Capt Sandy is getting slammed as well. Between what she did to Kiko and the Malia crap .....

Here is one sample of the tweets Sandy, Malia and Bugsy are getting.
Shanda Prentice @cheeseheadshan · 21h Man Malia and captain sandy are trash. Below deck med has always been sh&t, but now it’s extra sh&t with captain sandy and her pet Malia. A season that had so much potential to show how awesome powerful women can be turns into a gross catty example of why women get disrespected.
Tweets from Sandy
Captain Sandy Yawn @captsandyyawn ·Hi everyone! I understand some of you are spitfire mad Pouting face at me. I’m giving you the opportunity to jump on Fb & IG live to share your feelings. In today’s world hate can be a cancer and it’s never my intention to hurt anyone on this planet. #BelowDeckMed #BoatingMeansBusines10
Captain Sandy Yawn @captsandyyawn I know it’s hard to understand why things go down like they do & sometimes the person in charge can make some mistakes. That’s right, we are all human beings trying to get it right everyday we wake up, dress up & show up to a very stressful job. Somedays are better than others.
Tweet from Bugsy
Bugsy Drake @bugsydrake · 20h Okay so I join the boat to fill in the 2nd stew position and I’m attacked for doing my job?! #belowdeckmedReplying to Tweet rom Hannah referencing the picture that Malia staged and sent to Sandy.
Tweets from Hannah
Hannah Ferrier @hannahferrier_ · 21h She went into my cabin AFTER we had the fight about cabin arrangements...Then went through my handbag and took a photo of my prescribed medication and legal CBD and sent it to Sandy. #belowdeckmed twitter.com
Hannah Ferrier @hannahferrier_ · 21h I like Malia’s arranging skills. So that’s prescribed Valium, CBD (which is legal in Spain), a lighter (not sure what this has to do with anything) and my passport holder... And for anyone who’s interested the prescription is on the other side of the box as shown... #belowdeckmed
