The polos-and-pearls themed dinner was meant to be elegant, but Daisy’s team delivered unfinished decor featuring country horses instead of polo ones.

Primary guest Christian Perry spotted the mistake immediately and ordered, “Let’s get rid of it before anybody sees it.” The team yanked it down in a scramble, but the blunder added to an already rocky charter.

Daisy refused to let it slide. In a tense team meeting, she called out the slow pace and role confusion. Mike Durrant—deck/stew hybrid—pushed back, insisting he shouldn’t be fully on the hook for interior speed.

Daisy shut him down instantly: no excuses, full accountability. Her firm clapback reinforced why she’s one of the strongest chief stews in the franchise.

This wasn’t isolated. Daisy spent the episode radioing the distracted galley (ignored thanks to Ben and Ellie’s flirting), juggling drink distractions for starving guests, and managing the next day’s beach picnic disaster—where Eddy took 45 minutes to fetch Annette’s swimsuit and food still hadn’t arrived. Through it all, Daisy stayed composed, direct, and unapologetic.

Fans are praising her as the MVP of Season 4 so far. In a crew full of distractions and overlaps, she’s the one enforcing standards and keeping interior from total collapse. Mike’s resistance only highlighted the tension, but Daisy’s response made it clear: she runs the show.
