The McBee Dynasty: Steven McBee Jr. Confronts CFO Galyna for Drinking at 11 a.m. in the Office: ‘I Think She’s S— Faced’

The patriarch of the McBee family, Steven McBee Sr., may not be present in season 2, but his actions are still causing a lot of drama.

In episode 4, season 2 of The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys, now airing on Bravo, Steven McBee Jr. holds a meeting with McBee Farm & Cattle Co. CFO Galyna Saltkovska. During their conversation, Steven Jr. starts to get the sense that Galyna has been drinking on the job.

Steven Jr., who runs the Missouri farm after his father abruptly left it in his hands at the end of season 1, meets with Galyna in his office. As they begin to talk about business operations, Galyna misstates a business associate’s name, forgets the date of her next big meeting and giggles throughout their conversation.

“It’s f——- weird,” says Steven Jr. in a confessional. “It seems like she’s drunk,” he adds.

He immediately goes to his brothers Jesse and Cole, who also work at the farm, to tell them his suspicions. “I’m 95% sure she is s— faced,” Steven Jr. says. “Like hammered-drunk, on a Monday at 11:30 in the morning.”

When Cole wonders if she’s “just hungover,” Steven Jr. says, “No, I think she’s acting drunk. Knowing what she acts like when she’s drunk, I think she’s s— faced as of this minute.”

Steven Jr. decides he wants to know if he’s right or “completely off base,” so the guys go into her office.

They find a spiked bottle of juice on her desk and a cold, empty bottle of wine in the trash can.

Steven Jr. then confronts Galyna and asks her: “Are you drunk right now? Have you been drinking?”

She denies the allegation, even after Steven Jr. asks: “Why was there a cold bottle of wine in your trash?”

After some back and forth he finally says: “I want to help but I’m not going to be lied to. Have you been drinking today? Don’t lie to me.”

He adds, “I love you and I care about you and I want to help, but that is not OK,” to which Galyna replies, “Nothing is OK. All of it is not OK. The fact that he [Steven Sr.] is screwing my friend… Do you know how I felt after all of that? Like a piece of garbage.”

Galyna, who used to date the company’s former CEO Steven Sr., has been reeling from the news that Steven Sr. is now seeing one of her close friends, Masha, and invited her to move into his home.

In a confessional, Galyna admits, because of the hurt she’s feeling over Steven Sr., “I drink some wine, just to relax my feelings.”

“I came into this conversation pissed off,” says Steven Jr. “But as I’m looking at her and seeing the pain in her eyes, I understand that she is a human being she’s been going through a lot over the last few months. And I know how good of a person she is and how productive and how valuable she is to our companies.”

“The alcohol is not going to help,” he tells her, to which she replies, “No, something has to change.” When he asks her to promise this will not happen again she says, “I promise.”

Later in the episode, the brothers attempt to end the feud between Galyna and Mosha, to no avail. Afterward, when debating whether to cut Galyna from the company, Steven Jr. explains, “We need her. Galyna knows a lot of s— about our companies.”

So far, Steven Sr. has yet to make an appearance on season 2. In November 2024, he pleaded guilty to falsifying documents to receive unauthorized insurance benefits. This ultimately cost the U.S. government more than $4 million. He’s facing up to 30 years in federal prison without parole.

Although Steven. Jr. teased on a June 10th appearance on Watch What Happens Live that his father may make an appearance. “You might just see him show up later on,” he said.
