Andy: You got a lot of time to think,
out here on the water.

Every year makes it harder
and harder, though.

I don't care who you are.

Yeah!
Whoa! Whoa!

Oh!

Sig: You don't want to admit
that guys are getting older

and you start to see the wear
and tear on people.

The Bering sea always seems to win.

Your body, your mind,
and your soul take a huge hit.

narrator: 830 miles northwest
of the crab grounds,

in Anchorage, Alaska.

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Monitor beeping ]

Captain Phil Harris

is recovering from a 12-hour surgery,

to relieve pressure,
on his swelling brain.

He's had a devastating stroke.
It's survivable.

He's got a long road ahead of him.

Narrator: Neurologist Dr. Robert Lada

updates the kids
on their dad's condition.

This is the one that was done after surgery.
This is gonna be the base of the brain.

You do see a blood clot
that's sitting right here.

Here's the main vessel, and you
see all these high colors here,

these high-intensity signals?

Is that calcium?
That's calcium, just like bone.

So this has been coming
for a while, then. Right.

This has probably been
building up for years.

We call this kind a malignant stroke
because it typically will k*ll a person.

Someone's looking out for him.

But this is where we took the skull off,
so you can see the skull is missing there.

So by taking that skull out,

it gives the swelling an
opportunity to go outward.

This area of the brain here is a
very vital region that gives us

our breathing, our alertness,
all those things.

If I start to compress this...
It's called the brain stem...

Then that's going to be a big problem.

Those clots can hide
in any of the vessels.

And so that's where suddenly
something could change.

So a lot of people die
from this type of stroke.

Don't give up.

If you got any questions, just...
I'm here all week.

Thank you for everything, man.
Appreciate you very much.

Thanks.

I just hope that everything's
okay with him now.

Narrator: 860 miles away from his friend,

"Northwestern" captain Sig Hansen

is on a short run between strings.

Okay.

Pain reliever.
It's the breakfast of champions.

Narrator: The crew has been blasting through
gear for nearly three straight days.

I think that guys
are beat right now.

You know, all in all, what they did

was top-notch.

You know, it really was.

Narrator: The crew is shredded.

But no amount of work has put

the brakes on Jake's racing mind.

They found the truck.
But they haven't found him yet,

but they're still searching.

It's now been five weeks since
Jake's father disappeared.

I just want you to not
give up hope yet, okay?

It's hard being on the boat, not
being able to be with your family.

And it's just k*lling me.

Narrator: Although Jake is still trying to cope

with his father's disappearance,

today, the junior deckhand
has something to celebrate.

It's Jake's
six-month-sobriety clean day.

So we're going to take Matt's one-year

candle and break it in half for jakey.

He's got six months clean.

Matt's got 18 months.

I got, uh, none.

So we lead by example.
It's what we do.

You ready?
Yeah.

[ Laughs ]

Hey.
Happy Birthday, buddy.

You'll get the other
half in six more months.

All right.

We re-gifted the card.

It's a re-gift, but it's all right.

What it said was fitting.

I think Jake still...

His ambition is so strong that,

hopefully, that will
carry him through.

It's just a daily program, everyday.

No matter what happens from here

on, just remember that you got six.

You don't have to throw it away
on whatever comes at you,

you know what I mean?

I wouldn't be here
without you guys.

And I'm sure there's going to be a
couple of slips and trips along the way.

That's all right.

You know, I just
don't jeopardize my boat.

Thanks, guys.
Yeah.

I love you, man.

It's been pretty rough, man.

Keep on keeping on.
It's what we do.

Narrator: After a short two-hour break,
the sun is up,

and the crew returns to the deck.

We have a direction.
We got a place to attack.

And that's what we got to do.

We got to go get them.

Give it the old college try.

We got to stay at least over 200
average to get what we need, you know?

We have a delivery date.

Assuming that we stay on an even keel here,

we should be able to grind
up the rest of what we need.

We've been lucky.

All crab, dark crab, female crab.

The crab are gone, you know?

They're just flat-out... they moved.
They're barely breaking 150.

Put a lot of work into that crab.

Narrator: The 72-hour grind
on fruitful grounds.

That was it.

Narrator: Has now ended.

A five-day trip could quickly turn into
a ten-day trip when you're pulling 150.

Narrator: Now with the

delivery deadline in three days.

Well, well, what
are you going to do?

I don't even know where we're at.

Narrator: Sig's solution...
Turn and burn.

The only way to win

is to haul gear and keep
hauling and not stop.

I promised that I was not gonna

beat my crew to death this season.

Edgar has been in a lot of pain.

And I feel bad about it.

I don't want my brothers to be in pain.

I don't want my crew to be in pain.

Bottom line...
if you really want to go for crab,

you know,
sometimes you got to go barbaric.

That's just the way it is.

This job is literally k*lling me

in a literal sense,

not just body, but mind and spirit.

The more time goes by,
the clearer my head gets,

and the more I see what's important
in my life, which is family.

And my wife stuck with me for 16 years

and I put her through hell...

Not just being a fisherman, being
gone, but you work so hard

for months and months, you go home and
you play hard for months and months.

That's all lost.

It's a little silver lining, you know?

I need to find a good place
for me, a safe place.

In order to do that,
I need to be home.

I don't know if it's
just time off I need.

Maybe I just need to quit altogether.

I know at some point, me and the

boss has got to have
that conversation.

Then I think he needs to get
training somebody else down there

to take his place.

I shouldn't have to worry
about every [ Bleep ] thing.

He should step up, train some

[ bleep ] down there to take his spot.

That's the reality.

Narrator: Steaming toward the
northern most edge of the opilio grounds

is the 155-foot "wizard."

I'm still not to the ice edge.
It's right here somewhere.

The problem is I can't...
You know, I can't go that fast

around here right now, not
in the middle of the night.

Narrator: Captain Keith is slowly weaving
his way through a maze of jagged ice floes

to reach his northern most strings.

My northern gear's right here.

I'm going to head up
here about 35 miles.

If I'm ice-free up into here,
start fishing.

And with any luck,
we will fill this boat up.

Narrator: There are 35 ice-choked miles
between the skipper

and his $80,000 worth of gear.

I hate driving straight north,
straight at the ice,

in a big-time whiteout squall.

It's hairy, man.

You know, right now we can only
see as far as the sodium lights,

and that's maybe, at best, you know,
a couple tenths of a mile in front

and virtually nothing out the sides.

Oh, man.

It's almost suicidal to drive fast once you start
getting into this stuff this time of night.

Just one good-sized chunk would put a big ding
in the old nose of the boat pretty quick.

Those things are going to shut you
down if it gets into your gear.

This thing can cover two or
three strings all by itself.

Narrator: If Keith is navigating through a

floe that's broken off from the main pack,

he'll find some clear water ahead.

But if he's plowing into the pack itself,

"The Wizard" could be trapped.

[ Ice cracking ]

This is the [ Bleep ] real deal.

Narrator: The ice isn't the only
life-and-death battle for the skipper.

Keith's been trying to kick
a 23-year tobacco habit.

And so far,

not so good.

[ Radio beeps ]

Hi dad.

The skipper is caught red-handed.

You haven't answered today, daddy.

Narrator: Despite 25 years
commanding a Bering sea crab boat...

I have three.

Narrator: Keith is no match for
his righteous 11-year-old.

Keith's daughter, Sienna has been tracking
her dad's tobacco habit for weeks...

smiley faces for gum,
and ants for chewing tobacco.

And I'm not doing so
good on the calendar.

[ Sighs ]

The last five days, it looks like a
veritable ant army on the charts, Sienna.

I'm sorry.

Daddy, I want smiles not ants.

I just put a piece of gum in my mouth.

I'm working on it, bug.
I am working on it, all right?

Do not worry this time.

This time for sure, okay?

But I hope this promise is better
than the one in 2004, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

[ Groans ]

God, just a dagger in my heart.

Come on, bug.
Can you pull the knife out of my heart?

[ Sighs ]

I will do it.
Don't worry.

I just haven't made that step 100% yet.

Daddy, every journey helps
to start with a single step.

[ Laughs ]

Come on.
I know, bug.

I know every journey has to start with a step.
Thank you for reminding me.

All right, bug, I love you.

I love you, too.
I'll talk to you soon.

Oh, God.

And she's 11 going on 21.

Narrator: Keith is still 29 miles from his gear.

It's going to be long
night for the skipper.



Right now, the fishing's a little inconsistent.

It's a little spotty, and you got to just dial in.

And then you get consistency.

You know, there is hope, because we've seen
some very good fishing on some of these spots.

But on the average,

for the whole, it was very poor today.

I think that we need to just turn as much
gear over as we can and just attack it.

That's what we're going to do.

Narrator: They've been grinding
for 80 of the last 87 hours.

We're going to have to pick up the pace a little
bit if we want to get the shut-eye, guys.

Narrator: For Edgar, big brother's strategy
of stick, stay, and make it pay

has been measured by a little
rest and a lot of pain.

It's all about the [ Bleep ] Boat,
whatever's best for the boat.

[ Bleep ] Me. [ Bleep ] Him.
[ Bleep ] You. It doesn't matter.

Whatever's best for what
we're standing on right now.

I think what's happened to Edgar is he's, you
know, he's the one go-to guy on deck, right?

I'm not always the hands-on guy.

That's Edgar's deal.

And he does great at it.

It's going to be a long trip.

We got guys that are injured.

We've had our breakdowns.

We've had the 20-foot seas
and the 20-below.

And, you know, they're not tired.
They're exhausted.

And I feel bad.
I really do.

So, I've been obligated
to stick around for 22 [ Bleep ] years

out of a duty, out of feeling obligated,

because nobody else
could take care of business

down at home and take all the [ Bleep ].

I'm the only [ Bleep ] guy who's stuck with him
through all of his [ Bleep ] for 22 years.

Why?
I don't know.

Probably because we're just like our
father, a [ Bleep ] Crab fisherman.

Narrator: For a career crabber like Edgar,
there are only two ways off the deck...

Step up to the wheelhouse

or step off of the boat.

You know, you got to find yourself
a replacement Edgar,

so to speak... just a little younger.

So take it for what it's worth.

Most of the [ Bleep ] that is k*lling me
is in my head.

And most of that [ Bleep ] comes
down from the wheelhouse.

Just tired of the boat life, period.

That includes sitting up there
as well as working down here.

If he doesn't have a backup plan,
you know,

he's got to communicate that to me,

so that I can help facilitate
whatever we need.

Can I run the boat?
You [ Bleep ] better believe I can run the boat.

Do I want to run the boat?

No, I don't want to run
the [ Bleep ] boat.

Kids need a dad.

They don't need a skipper.

Narrator: 20 feet separates
the deck from the wheelhouse.

But the Hansen brothers,
are worlds apart.

Narrator: 350 miles from Dutch harbor
in the arctic ice pack is the "wizard."

I'm getting in this ice.

I'm going to try and get some kind of confirmation
on which way it's drifting.

My gear's right here.

Hopefully it's in open water
and not in this crap.

Narrator: Less than a mile
from his northern strings,

Captain Keith is still surrounded by ice.

It's hard to predict the ice.

In fact, it's virtually
impossible to predict the ice.

Narrator: Down on deck,
the crew gets an unscheduled break.

This is the first real meal in,
yeah, two days.

Narrator: Almost unheard of in crab fishing.

Everybody back off,
you savage beasts.

[ Laughter ]

Whew, man.

You know, I had a hunch last night
when I was seeing some of this stuff piled up

and not just pancakes,
that it might be a little more substantial

than what we were seeing.

Narrator: As unpredictable as the ice is,
one thing is for sure...

if it's buried Keith's pots,
the loss would be catastrophic.

If it's going south,
it's in my gear.

I'll get some of my gear back before it hits it,
but it's in my gear.

[ Seal growling ]

Just a big bull seal there.

[ Horn blows ]

Is he even looking at us?

He barely moved.
Lazing out there.

Are those things good luck?

You're asking me if that
marine mammal is good luck?

No, that marine mammal
is not good luck.

Take a closer look at the
environment we're in right now.

That's not good luck.

Narrator: 15 hours after engaging with the ice.

Clear water, baby.
Clear water.

We're liking that.

Not quite surrounded.

All right. Game on.
We can start fishing.

Narrator: At least for now, the
"wizard's" pots are in the clear.

You know, it's time to get to work.

We'll see how the spot checks
come back and make a decision.

When I left the gear here,
there was a possibility

I wouldn't have gotten anything back.

Well, I got lucky.

I dodged a b*llet leaving
the gear out here.

That's not looking too bad at all.

It doesn't look bad for a first pot.

They're keepers.



Nice, big crab.

You know, we took a pretty big
gamble leaving the gear here.

And we're getting crab out
of it, so that's a big plus.

Guys have worked all
through this area hard.

But nobody's been in this
little area here or over to here,

so I'm thinking down in here has
got to be safe

for at least a couple of days.

And I'm going to take a shot at leaving it here,
at least for one pick.

Narrator: The skipper decides
to dance with the devil

and dump back his gear
right here, next to the ice.

Lots of open water above us.

Spot-checked the gear... looks good.

Let's get this gear off the
boat and start fishing.

Knock on wood, and I'm going to pray.

Ready?
Ready.

Basically,
everybody's retreated away from the ice.

Nobody wants to take
the risk right now.

I got 400,000 pounds of crab to catch.

If I'm going to try and put this trip in,

I'm certainly not going to do it
scratching on dabs of crab.

You know, the risk level's gone

up dramatically trying
to work right here.

Whew. We're gonna gamble
a little bit here.

Narrator: 830 miles from the crab grounds.

How you doing?
Doc, good to see you.

Narrator: 28 hours after
Captain Phil's surgery,

family and close friends

gather for the latest update.

There's still a lot
of medical issues that are there,

so he's going to be
under real close medical supervision

for quite some time.

But the biggest thing right now

is going to be the pain issue

because of the pressure
stuff in his head.

We drew blood cultures,
and he has progressed quite nicely,

especially over the last 24 hours.

He is now breathing on his

own... the tubes are all

connected... with minimal support.

And he looks very comfortable.

Wow.

He's gotten through that

first part that, "am I
going live or not?"

That was the first thing.

Well, it looks like you're

going to be living.

[ Laughter ]

Oh, yeah.

He's ahead of the game.

Well, that's good news to hear.

Yeah, yeah, when
can he start talking?

Later today, he should be

able to start talking from just,

you know, being off the ventilator.

You guys are going to
be in for a treat.

Yeah, I know.

You're in for a treat.

[ Laughter ]

All right.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Ah.

Sounds good.

Ah.

We're having a way better day today
than we thought we were going to have.

Man, he's tough.

So, he can move his legs and talk.

I went from this this morning

to this right now.

It's a roller coaster.

[ Monitor beeping ]

Narrator: One day after enduring
a 12-hour brain surgery.

What's going on, buddy?

Where have you been?

Morning, pops.

Okay.

Narrator: Phil speaks with his kids
for the first time.

I'm alive.

Yeah, you are.

Narrator: But the doctors
have instated one rule.

She said you got to take a break.

You got take a break
from the ice chips right now.

Narrator: No ice chips.

He wants ice chips to chew on.

She just said that he can't have any.

You want those ice chips, don't you?

Narator: Since his surgery,
Phil has been allowed one spoonful an hour.

And he's reached his limit.

I don't want to get yelled at.

Right now, you're not
running this ship, buddy.

You're just a deckhand now.

We're in this place.

She said not right now.

I know what she said.

[ Laughs ]

You smart a*s.

You are going to be a pain in the butt,
aren't you?

You're all fired up.
Hand them to me.

No.
No ice chips.

You're going to get us
both in trouble here.

Just a little one?
Don't give him one.

I'm giving a little one.
Yeah, well, you know what? They said not to.

You can't be doing that.
I'm not trying to be a [ Bleep ].

You got to listen to what they say.

Yeah, well, they've already
been giving him a little bit.

And they told him he could have one.

And it's been a half hour
since he had a little one.

They told him an hour.
Look it.

That's not going to hurt.
Just to wet his mouth up.

Are you a doctor?

No, but they were already
giving it to him.

They were already giving it to him.

When he says no more...
they don't want him to have a full glass.

They already said it was
all right in moderation.

He's already been waiting
for a really long time.

He was in here, and I was right here when he said
no more till the throat people look at him.

I heard what he said, too.

Narrator: In the end,
the Captain makes his own decision.

See?

You're getting us both in trouble.

[ Laughs ]

Nice.

narrator: 310 miles
to the north of Dutch harbor

is the "Kodiak."

We're going to haul
gear until it's full.

Narrator: After an off-load in king cove,

Captain Bill steams toward his town soak.

We'll make short work of this one.

We're going to get on that stuff

that's just thick,
'cause it's out here.

Oh, yeah.

[ Laughs ]

Narrator: For the first time in weeks.

Big money, baby.

Narrator: The pot is
crammed with keepers.





That's a good start.



What's that?
That's a pot there.

Good move, Bill.

Now we're logging.

Ooh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.

Careful, now.

Things will add up at 500 a pot.

Eight-legged dollar bills, son.

Good for our time. Good for our fuel.
Good for our morale. Good for everything.

There's nothing bad about this.

That's my [ Bleep ] moneymaker.

Looks like its working, baby.

Righteous, dude.

Yeah.
Oh, yeah.

Looking good.
Wow.

We got 500, 500, 660, 780, 675.

Narrator: Through out the season,

the "Kodiak" has suffered constant friction

between the wheelhouse.

I'm sick of this [ Bleep ] with
these [ Bleep ] inferior [ Bleep ].

Narrator: And the crew.

I don't understand his attitude.
He's been saying that all day.

I was hauling out...
What do you...

Narrator: Now the "Kodiak"
is finally firing on all cylinders,

and the sins of the past
are all but forgiven.

[ Laughs ]

Watch your back, dude.

Probably the best string
of the year right there.

[ Bleep ] Now.

Ugh.

Narrator: Then, just as suddenly as they blew in,

the winds of good fortune blow cold.

I just want to go home now.

[ Bleep ]. [ Bleep ].
[ Bleep ].

Narrator: Worse yet,
the blanks are not due to a lack of crab.

They're due to a lack of diligence on deck.

Panel down, door not tied.

See, right there what Adam's tying up
is the panel.

It's an escapement panel.

And none of them were tied up.

All the crab are just walking out.

The [ Bleep ] A-team.




I'm just going to sh**t somebody in the leg and
I'm not going to be an [ Bleep ] about it.

I'm going to let you
guys pick h* it is.

The first two pots in this string
are rigged incorrectly.

And the back panel
is open on this one, too.

It's like [ Bleep ].

So God knows how many crab are
walking out of these pots.

Narrator: Instead of catching the crab,

they've just been feeding them.

A gold miner
with a big hole in the bottom.

"Eh, nothing in that one."

[ Bleep ] these guys.
They don't have a clue.

Narrator: On a short run between strings,

Bill calls the crew to the galley.

I'm flustered beyond belief.

I can't believe how bad we're doing.
What was the deal with that gear?

That was just [ Bleep ] up.
Obviously, the panels were zip-tied in.

Everyone overlooked it.

This is about the most [ Bleep ] up
turnaround of a trip I've ever seen.

I'll second that.

Well, we're going to turn gear.
We're going to turn a lot of gear.

And if it's not in your picture,
take your [ Bleep ] pay cut and pack your sack.

I don't have time for it.

Narrator: Bill has had enough.

[ Telephone dialing ]

Hey, Derrick?
Captain Billy here.

We're getting in midday on the 24-th to off-load,
so get ahold of me somehow.

Let me know that you're going to go
or you're not going to go. Thanks.

Talk to you in a bit.

Narrator: One of his crewmen
is a dead man walking.

We'll see what happens.

Narrator: 284 miles northwest of Dutch harbor,
on the "Time Bandit."

Right now, we're running up to our next string of
gear, and it's going to be about 15 below zero.

And we got to pull about 60
crab pots tonight at 15 below.

So, so miserable.

Narrator: The conditions on deck
are a few ticks above terrible.

My fingers don't work right.

The hydraulic system's slowed down.

It sucks.

Narrator: But up in the wheelhouse.

A lot of things on
my mind right now.

Narrator: Captain Andy
is struggling to keep focused.

The hardest part's worrying
about what's going on.

It would sure be nice to
know that Phil's okay.

But I have to pay attention to the fishing here,

or else I can get somebody hurt.

Narrator: After just 90 minutes on deck,

the temperature drops
to 30 degrees below zero.

What happens when it gets
really, really, really cold...

All the crab pop their
legs to try to stay warm.

Now we've got a hockey puck.

That's how cold it is.

Narrator: But with little crab on board
and a looming delivery date,

skipper Andy can't afford to shut down.

Attaboy, Mike.

Oh, damn.

Thought he had it.

Aah!
[ Bleep ].

Flat calm... we can't even haul gear.
[ Bleep ] bull [ Bleep ].

Get it, Mike.

Get that chain line ready.

Trailer bag's diving.

It takes forever to pull the pots.

narrator: Strong currents are
dragging down the trailer buoy,

making what seems like an easy hook toss

a whole lot tricker.

Oh, my gosh!
[ Bleep ].

Bull [ Bleep ].

Don't miss!

Look at it just staring at you.

The buoy's just staring right at you,
going [ Bleep ] you."

These things are an absolute
pain in the [ Bleep ].

[ Laughs ]

Did you get it?

I'm [ Bleep ].

Want me to show you how to do that?
Yeah, please.

Scotty's pulling his chain.

Don't miss, and we're fine.

Otherwise, have somebody
else throw if you're tired.

You know, time to hang up your hook.
That's all I'm saying.

Here, I could try to grapple
it while we're here.

Pull that out of the way.

Narrator: By the time Scotty
finally hooks the bag.

The boat has drifted too far
to get the line in the block.

They'll have to lasso the buoy
with the chain line

to hook it up and haul it.

Nice.

Okay.

Nice.

Whew! Got her done.

It was probably like 15 throws
for that one buoy.

Mike's struggling more than I've ever seen
Mike struggle with a hook.

I just don't know why he's doing
it 'cause usually the best guy

that can really jam gear is at the block

so that was usually Mike.

And now he's missing
just like a regular guy.

So I wonder where
extreme Mike went to.

Riled.

It bothers Mike
when he misses that hook.

It's a pride deal.

He's a little hot.

Looks like somebody
got a little upset.

Yeah, well, when you throw


of every string,
it makes a difference.

You got skipper's disease
already set in, brother.

You are [ Bleep ] Daniel.

Narrator: Just a few days ago...

Okay, fire at will.

Narrator: Captain Andy
gave Mike a turn at the wheel.

It's much warmer sitting in this chair than it is
out there throwing shots, I can tell you that.

Narrator: But being groomed
for the wheelhouse.

Maybe that's why you're missing on the hook.
You're rusty.

Narrator: Has put a target on Mike's back.

I'm sorry, guys.
I am.

Mike!
What?

What?
What do you want from me?

Narrator: To earn the Captain's seat,
Mike will have to earn back

the respect of his crew mates.

So, we'll see what Mr. Fourtner has.

Narrator: Difficult tides and tension on deck

are slowing the "Time Bandit's" haul.

Narrator: For the last three days...

I love you.

Hi, is Jake there?

Yo, bro.

Hey, what's going on, buddy?

Got the news.

How's your dad doing?

He looks in pretty
sore shape right now.

He's probably going to be in the
hospital for about eight months.

I love your dad, man.

He's always brightened my day,

and made me like, work harder
when I think about him.

I know he loved
you like a son, too.

He's got a lot of respect for you.

I know that you're probably

You get any news about your dad?

Uh, they found his truck, but
they haven't found him yet.

I'm sorry to hear that, brother.

Because I'm the one

I need to make money."

That's right, because dad told

You got your whole life to make money.
