Description: "Miami-based The Spirit of Europe, the third largest cruise liner in the world, plows through the Mediterranean every summer, offering its passengers a temporary escape from their everyday lives.  But even the bloated tackiness of the ship's much-hyped belly flop competition is not immune to the chaos of the European migration crisis.  When a disabled raft nears The Spririt of Europe, the ship's captain is forced to do something headquarters in Miami wants to avoid at all costs: cut the engines" --
