Christian Trimino and Max Salvador are already at odds this season on Below Deck Mediterranean. As everyone but Christian has already realized, Christian lacks a sense of urgency in almost everything that he handles. Meanwhile, Max is forever running around trying to accomplish everything he can as a deckhand. Therefore, Christian’s pace is stressing Max out, while Max’s “do it now” statements are starting to trigger Christian. And, as the preview for next week teases, these two are about to come to blows when Season 10 Episode 3 airs.
Below Deck Med tensions are high between Max and Christian in Season 10 Episode 3
In the final minutes of Episode 2, Max asked Christian to return a hose to the sundeck. Christian, however, failed to do this quickly. “Do it now,” Max demanded. “You really want to do it, you can do it your f*cking self,” Christian argued.
“You don’t want to mess with me,” Christian explained in his confessional. But in his, Max joked, “I’m more loco than you.” Back on deck, Christian asked Max to stop pushing his buttons. “Push the buttons,” Max said, ending this episode on a dramatic note.
Following Episode 2, Bravo released a sneak peek of Episode 3. Returning to their feud, Christian tells Max, “You don’t f*cking know me, okay? So don’t [rush me].” Laughing, Max seemingly pokes fun at Christian, noting, “You’re a dangerous man.”
Instead of answering Max, Christian says, “You’re telling me to do three things at the same time.” Interjecting, Max says, “No, I asked you one thing.” Overhearing, their already struggling bosun, Nathan Gallagher, enters their feud, asking, “F*cking hell. What’s going on?”
In response, both men start pleading their case. After several beats of chaos, Nathan shuts them down, encouraging them to hash this mess out at a later time. But will these men make amends as this episode continues next week? Only time will tell.
Below Deck Mediterranean airs on Mondays at 8/7c on Bravo. The show streams on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
