This is a Channel 7 News

special report.

Pacific Ocean Park Pier,

infamous local surf spot...

...burned to the ground last night.

This is the latest in a series of fires

that have plagued the park...

...since it was

officially closed in 1 967.

Pacific Ocean Park,

once described as superior...

...to Coney Island in New York,

to the boardwalk in Atlantic City...

...lies in smoldering ruins today...

...and is now nothing more than

a bunch of fond memories.

Look who's here.

Bastards didn't send fire trucks

for over six hours or something.

Yeah, they wanted it gone.

They wanted it gone.

You know, the pier has been here

for over 40 years.

Get behind the perimeter, all of you.

Set it up 500 yards down the beach.

Bring it back up to the highway.

You know that's where

l learned to surf? Right there.

They look at the cove as a shithole.

l mean, thank God, man,

because in winter this place goes off.

We had it all to ourselves.

We had it all to ourselves, man.

You're right.

l have no reason

to come here anymore.

Hey.

Sorry l left, man.

l just had to pay the rent.

Hey, man.

Your mama, she has to eat, right?

She has to eat.

-Hey, bro.

-What's up, T.A.?

T.A.!

-Topper, man.

-Little brother.

-Hey, man. Put these on.

-No, no, no! lt's cool, man.

Sorry.

Hey, man.

We got all the meds you need.

We're going to Maui

and get you on some real waves.

Get in the limo.

l told you, they're operating

again on Thursday.

T.A.!

l love you, man.

l want you to come.

l'll send you a ticket.

Let's go.

So are you a good pirate

or a bad pirate?

Ahoy, captain.

Sh*t.

So how are you doing?

-l feel like sh*t.

-Yeah?

But the doctor says

l'm getting better.

You'll be back on top

again soon, man.

You gotta give it time.

l'm gonna end up a ditchdigger.

Hey.

Hey, look at me, boy.

You remember you're an Alva.

You've got a lot of heart...

...and a lot of balls.

Hey, come on.

Yeah!

Let's go. Come on.

What's up, homey?

You looking at me?

-You looking at me?

-We were leaving.

-Looking at me?

-Just checking things out.

Nice Rolex you got there, man.

-You sure about that?

-No, man. Hey, man.

No, he's cool. He's cool.

-Jay.

-Hey. How you doing, man?

-What's up, dude?

-How's it going?

Man, nice ride.

Where you been, Jay?

Hey, Kathy, come here.

-Nice car, man.

-Hey, Stacy.

Hey, Stacy. How you doing?

Hey.

He's sick, man.

He's always been sick.

No, he's real sick.

That whole equilibrium thing

Brain cancer.

What? Are you serious?

Yeah, it's bad.

They operated already.

He's gonna be back home

this weekend.

Yeah, we're all gonna go hang out.

You should come.

Tony's supposed to be there.

Come on, Jay. You gonna

make out with him or what, eh?

So...

...l'll see you at the mall.

All right, Jay.

on sale. What do you think?

-Hey, how you doing? Come on in.

-Hey, how's it going, man?

Do you know when my board's

Am l King Tut or what?

Yeah, my doctor prescribes it now.

Heard you were sick too.

Hell, yeah.

So did you get ahold of T.A.?

He and Stacy are off

making their millions.

Sorry, dude.

No big deal.

Hey, if you do croak...

...will you give your house

to my mom?

Only if she lets me see her tits first.

lt's awfully nice of you to bequeath

your star-athlete-like presence...

...among us lower life forms.

Sid, man.

So, what happened to Florida?

The Kona Bowl.

Yeah, l guess l missed my flight.

Won't Larry crucify you for that?

Oh, you got a logo?

Man, screw the team.
