Default Commercial 250nm VFR flight - all 3 landings on the same day?

Cross Country definition for a rating requirement 61.1(b)(3)D(ii)(B),50nm
Yes, the first leg has to be 250nm but I can't see a requirement for
the subsequent legs to be 50nm.

I know a x/c flight is anything over 50nm with the departure and
destination being different places, but I don't see how this applies
to this flight.


It is not the first leg that has to be 250nm. At least one landing has
to be more than 250 nm from the original point of departure. The other
legs, it appears, can be any length.

I know a x/c flight is anything over 50nm with the departure and
destination being different places,


No, for this purpose x/c means the departure and destination have to be
more than 50 nm apart. You can't just fly 50nm and land right next
door, and call it a x/c for purposes of meeting commercial requirements.
