Baywatch Page #6

Synopsis: In sun-kissed Emerald Bay, the vigorous Lieutenant Mitch Buchannon and Baywatch, his elite team of hand-picked and perfectly tanned lifeguards, protect the bay, keeping both sunbathers and beach lovers safe. However, this summer, two new eager trainees will join the demanding life-saving program, as well as an insubordinate former Olympic swimmer, who are all called to prove their worth on the lifeguard towers just on time when a new synthetic street drug begins to infest the Emerald Bay: the flakka. Without a doubt, this calls for some serious undercover teamwork action, as the badgeless heroes in spandex comb the beach for shady newcomers and nefarious entrepreneurs with hidden agendas of their own. Can Mitch's band save the bay?

Because now Dave

knows too much.

And this better

not come back to me.

I can't have

this unraveling.

Got it?

Now go clean up

your mess.

Brody.

Mmm.

I'm so glad you came.

Oh, gosh.

Let's get you a real drink.

Greg, the good stuff.

Scotch is

your drink, right?

Yeah.

This is a really nice place

you have here.

You have great taste.

I really respect that.

It's nice to have somebody

who respects you, you know?

Oh...

I sense trouble.

I think I'm just, uh,

not used to having a boss.

Mitch is threatened.

He should be thrilled

to have you.

Yeah, you'd think.

Oh, my god.

"Lieutenant Matt Brody."

That has such

an amazing ring to it.

Don't you think?

Yeah.

Here. Keep

the whole bottle.

I think you need it.

This'll be fun.

Thank you.

Hey.

Did you get

any intel on Leeds?

Yeah, I got intel.

That's awesome.

Single malt

35-year-old intel.

And it's f***ing

delicious.

All right, I think

i got something.

Found our access point.

Where is Brody?

Have you seen him?

No. No time.

We gotta move

without him.

Yeah, but we need

our lookout.

What's your deal?

You like torturing guys?

No.

Yeah, you do.

Well, I mean,

i have three brothers, so

I've had a lot of practice.

Mmm.

I take it

you're an only child.

I don't know, honestly.

You don't know?

I grew up in

a foster home.

Oh, sh*t.

Three of them,

actually.

I'm sorry.

Mmm. Don't be.

It was pretty cool.

One of them had a pool.

If it wasn't for

that pool,

I probably wouldn't have

gone to the Olympics.

Yeah. I mean,

that's amazing.

Go from foster home

to winning a gold medal.

Two.

Two gold medals.

And I f***ing busted my ass

for those gold medals,

so you can't blame me

for celebrating.

Yeah. Huh.

I mean, I've always

wondered what happened

that night.

I knew the relay

was the next day,

but those guys...

They didn't care about me.

They just needed me to win.

Well, you certainly made

sure they did not win.

I lost way

more than they did.

Okay? I lost

all my sponsors.

I'm an olympic champion

and I'm f***ing broke.

Ronnie, hey.

What?

Okay, listen. I need you

to create

a distraction for Leeds.

What? How?

Remember

the first time

i met you?

The night at chen's?

Oh, yeah.

What? No.

Yes.

No!

Yes!

Mitch, no!

Yes. Yes!

No!

No!

God damn it, Ronnie.

You listen to me,

and you listen good.

Every team has a ringer,

and you and only

you are my ringer.

Well, then I guess

I'm your ringer.

You are my goddamn ringer.

Ring, ring?

Ring, ring.

Yeah. Oh, god.

Oh, could I...

Will you just have

one drink with me?

You should probably

actually stop drinking

because you're supposed to

be the lookout for Mitch.

I am looking out for Mitch.

Leeds is right there.

I'm gonna go check it out.

Ladies and gentlemen.

A warm welcome to our host,

Victoria Leeds!

Thank you. Thank you.

So many people.

So as a welcome

to the bay, I, uh...

Oh, god. Mitch,

this is for you.

Oh, wait.

Uh, no, Victoria.

I have something

very special planned

for you, for everyone.

So god help us.

Aw.

I'll just put

that down. Okay.

Hit it.

That's weird.

Who's Angelo's

fish company?

Doesn't the Huntley get

their fish from Flynn's?

Let's check it out.

Wait, wait, wait,

wait, wait.

Mitch.

I just got

a little hunch, okay?

Sh*t.

You two, what are you

doing back here?

Hey.

First date.

You can't blame me,

right?

So juvenile.

I'm onto you all.

Ladies and gentlemen,

put your hands together

for whatever that was.

You did good, Ronnie.

Where'd you learn

to dance like that?

Hebrew school.

You were supposed to be

there for us tonight.

You had a job to do.

And now you're trashed.

See, I just... I don't

understand this, man.

If you really think that

there's drugs here,

call the police.

And then what?

We get a few minnows?

The big whale gets away?

Do you hear yourself

when you talk?

I dare you to say one thing

without the ocean in it.

I dare you.

We were depending

on you tonight.

And you f***ed up... again.

Watch yourself.

Really?

Get this through

your head, Mitch.

You're not a cop.

You're not

the f***ing equalizer.

You're a lifeguard,

Mitch,

who sits in

his f***ing tower

all day,

'cause that's the only place

he has any sort of power.

This is

the real world, Mitch.

Lifeguards can't do sh*t.

Come on.

Don't f***ing touch me.

Let's go.

Or what?

What're you

gonna do, Mitch?

Sh*t.

Sh*t.

I didn't touch you.

You dick.

Cool off, pool boy.

That's him!

The vomit comet!

What are you guys

standing around for?

Let's do some shots!

Whoo!

Hey.

Hey. Thank you.

Summer, this is

your day today.

Yeah, I know it.

Mitch?

Hey, man,

i think, uh...

I think we both said

a few things last night

that we didn't mean.

Not me.

I meant every word.

Come on, man.

You've never gotten drunk

and said

something you don't mean?

Seriously?

I f***ed up, man.

I know that.

I'm sorry.

I watched you win

two gold medals.

You were amazing

when it was just you.

But when it came

to the relay,

being part of your team,

your olympic team,

your family,

you blew it.

'Cause you're selfish.

Baywatch is our team.

Baywatch is our family.

These are the keys

to our house.

But you've proven to me

that you don't want to be

part of this family.

So you're done.

'Cause the only thing

you give a sh*t about

is yourself

and your medals.

You talking 'bout

this medal?

Wow, that's really

impressive.

Don't you have

two of them, though?

That's not the point.

That's polluting.

Listen, Mitch, I know

i messed up, okay?

I should have listened.

I want to be

a part of this team.

And I will not

let you down again,

i swear.

And by the way,

i think you're

right about Leeds.

And the councilman...

Councilman...

What's his face?

Councilman Rodriguez.

Uh... yeah.

Rodriguez,

that's it.

The dead guy.

He had this watch.

It was a nice tag watch.

Yeah, I've seen

that watch, too.

On one of Leeds's thugs.

That's it. See?

I want to help, man.

And I want to...

I want to help.

All right.

I'll give you another shot.

Councilman Rodriguez

is connected to all

of this somehow.

And the coroner's office

just released his body.

And I got a plan.

Okay, clear.

Come on, let's go.

Okay,

left turn, left turn.

What the f***?

Who taught you how to drive,

Stevie f***ing wonder?

You're huge, man.

Very hard to control.

Just get me to the morgue.

That's all I said.

I'm taking us

to the morgue. Go left.

Left, left. Left turn.

Careful.

Okay.

We're clear,

we're clear.

Oh!

All right.

- Oh, no.

- What?

What does that say?

"Morgue."

Exactly.

I got us to the morgue.

Nice.

Good job.

Yeah.

These disguises

are awesome.

I actually feel

like a doctor.

Oh, no.

Read me his toe tag.

It smells like yogurt.

Oh, Jesus.

"2816."

Read me line 12.

Jesus.

Line 12.

"Alveoli are clean."

Wait, that means that

there was

no smoke in his lungs.

- So how did he die?

- That's the question.
