21x08 - Bering Sea Casino

[bunniefuu]

[waves crashing]

[John]
I like taking the gamble.

The Bering Sea Casino.

Every time you throw, you never
know what's going to come up.

What's it gonna be?

Gonna be a breakdown?

Go, go, go, go, go!

Whoa!

-[alarms beeping]
-[Jake] Oh my God!

[bleep]

[John] You throw a jackpot...

[crew cheering]

Snake eyes?

[Calvin speaking]

Hey!
Shut up and stop talking!

Could be things
you never hope to see.

Aye, aye, aye.

[retching sounds]

You just never know what
it's gonna be.


sitting over my head, [bleep]!

Your plane ticket is
[bleep] canceled right now.

[retching sounds]

-[Calvin] No, I'm going there.
-No, no, no, you're gone.

[Jake] Damn it!

[frustrated grunt]

Damn it!

[energetic, suspenseful
music playing]

[John]
What's it gonna be?

Double sixes on my last role.

Ah-ah.

Whoo.

[waves crashing]

[intriguing music playing]

[narrator] In Dutch Harbor...

[Keith] OK, Mouse.

I'm already past the airport.

[Keith] Just give me
eight minutes, OK?

Let me drive over there
and make sure it's something

you can tie up to.

I know it's open.

It doesn't mean we can
physically tie next to it.

You don't know what his chocks
or cleats are like.

Sovereignty, correct?

I'm getting blown around
really hard here.

I am hurrying, Mouse!

Just get those, hey --
[bleep].

Stay on the [bleep]
damn phone, Mouse.

[Monte] Let's make sure
we're prepared.

This is gonna be
pretty dicey getting in here

with this wind.
And have some crash bags ready.

[deckhand] Yep.

After collecting
a $900,000-check

for his red king crab quota,
and eager to re-rig his pots

for the bairdi fishery,

Captain Keith Colburn
races to assist

his brother Monte
and his unproven crew

as they attempt to tie up
the 155-foot Wizard

to the dock in 50-knot winds.

What's wrong with having
two captains?

There's always gonna be
a [bleep] discrepancy.

Kind of like what we got
on deck right now, you know,

we got Calvin and OJ.

Calvin, he's supposed to be
a full-share guy.

He worked with Jeff
on the Destination for years,

is what I was told.

And, I mean, that's all I know.

[OJ speaking]

The spring line first,
and then the stern line.

[OJ] OK.

[Keith and Mia speaking]

[Keith] OK.
OJ, when you're ready,

right here.

Alright, here.

OK, get what you can on the bow.

[suspenseful music playing]

Got to get it
through there somehow.

[Calvin speaking]

Well, you should've
[bleep] dealt with that earlier.

Pull it back through
and give me something

that can actually tie up
with, would you?

Hey!
Shut up and stop talking!

There's no way you're
getting that bowline knot
through there to begin with.

It has nothing to do
with the heaving line.

Give me the blue line instead.
That one's -- give it to me.

Bunch of numbskulls
and idiots, I got.

Like Calvin might be the top
of the list, he's the guy

I'm trusting to be [bleep]
full-share guy.

You can throw it anywhere
you want over here,

as long as you can get it
on this boat.

[Calvin speaking]

[Keith] Let it go.
I'll get it.

[suspenseful music playing]

Come here, baby.
Come on.

Alright, tie it off.

[Keith grunting]

[bleep]

[sing-songy]
Stress factory.

[Keith] Oh, [bleep]!

Oh!

[bleep]

[tense chords playing]

Oh.

[hydraulic hissing]

OK, take a few minutes here
to kind of gather ourselves,

and then we'll start working
on the pots.

[Calvin speaking]

Well, I'm hoping Calvin knows
how to rig gear.

I can tell you this right now.

He doesn't know how to tie
a [bleep] boat up, right?

[Monte] You know,
he wants to draw,

and he hasn't even
hauled a pot.

Is that why he's been
blowing me up

that he needs to talk to me?

Hey, Cal, come on up.

Alright.

Alright.
What's going on?

Maybe I need to also have

a little bit more
authority, too.

You know what I mean?
A little bit.

I can't give you --
I can't give you that authority

if you can't have
the bow of the boat

ready to tie up
in heavy weather.

Yeah, well, that's not me.
I didn't set up that line.

OK, and number two.
And number two,

you shouldn't be walking on me
and stomping on me

when I'm trying to talk to you,
like just now.

[Calvin] Alright.

So you need a draw,
you're saying?

-Yeah.
-OK.

-What are you asking for?
-I don't know, $7,500.

$7,500?

[tense music playing]

-You haven't hauled a pot
on this boat yet, alright?
-Keith, we're old school.

No, I'm not giving you
$7,500, OK?

-Alright.
-[Keith] OK?

But, I mean, I'm gonna
make sure you're taken care of.

-[indistinct]
-If you stay and help me
get this crew working, OK?

[Calvin] Sounds good.

Don't worry,
we're gonna get it done.

Nope, that's
what I was expecting.

Alright.

[tense chords playing]

[tense music building]

He wants responsibility.

But he doesn't
wanna be responsible.

Exactly.
You know?

So that is a big red flag.

[tense chord strikes]

[Keith] I got a bad feeling.



on the bairdi grounds.

[Jake] Whoa, dude.
Look at that thing.

Hey guys, hang on.

[Felipe] Watch the rail.
Watch out!

Aboard the Titan Explorer...

Bairdi's the hardest crab
to fish for.

They don't school up.

I'm gonna set a series of fangs,
which means I'm gonna set down,

turn, and then come back up.

So there's gonna be
no time to rest.

I got 150 pots on deck and now
I'm gonna [bleep] use them.

With a four-day
head start on the fleet,

Captain Jake Anderson
prepares to set

a 75-mile-long
prospect string

to snare his fleet leading
$3-million-bairdi crab quota.

Alright, boys, get ready.
Bairdi is officially open.

Let's go b*mb some crab.

[cheering]

Hell yes!

[Jake]
Big waves out there.

Oh -- [indistinct]!

It's scary.

I don't need any more stress.

Here comes one right now.

OK, watch out, watch out.

[deckhand]
Let go, let go, let go, let go,
let go, let go!

-[waves crashing]
-[deckhands] Whoa!

Whoo!

[deckhand grunts]

[alarm beeping]

What the hell?

God, I hope we're OK.

Can't afford to slow down.

[intriguing music playing]

[phone ringing]

You OK?

What?

[bleep]

[bleep], dammit.

I got water in my day tank.

The day tank is the tank
that I draw fuel from

while I'm running.

There's only one place
that it can come from,

and that's outside.

[waves crashing]

If Felipe can't find
a resolution,

worst case scenario,
we ruin all our engines,

then we lose everything.

[tense chords playing]

-[Felipe] OK.
-Did you find it?

[bleep] damn it.

[bleep]

Yeah.

[tense music playing]

[Jake] Damn it.

-Can you guys hear me?
-[deckhand] Yeah, Roger.

We've got to get to town,
so just get the gear off.

[bleep] this weather, dude.

Call Jenna.

[phone ringing]

[Jenna]
How's it going?

[Jake] I'm done, dude.
I hate this job.

There's so much [bleep] to do.

I want to quit, [bleep] --


of [bleep] bairdi.

And now, I'm behind the g*n,
and now I've lost my advantage.

[Jake grunts]

I [bleep] hate bairdi.
I [bleep] hate it.

[Jake] No, it's not O-[bleep]-K.

I'm tired of doing
all this [bleep] bull[bleep].

Oh, my god!

[bleep]

I can't haul gear!
I can't go home!

And you want to know what!


sits over my head

because that's what I do, Sam!
Damnit!

[bleep] damn it!
Damn it!

[bleep] damn it!
Damn it!

[tense music playing]

[Jenna speaking]

[tense music playing]

I can't do this anymore.

I can't [bleep] deal
with this [bleep] anymore.

I'm so [bleep] mad.

I love you, too.
I'm just...

No, there's nothing.
I know you try, but...

Yeah.

I love you.

[tense music playing]

[deckhand speaking in Spanish]

This season has been rough.
We've fought the weather,

uh, mechanical issues,
abandoning ship.

Let's get in,
get some kind of help

so I can...

continue fishing.
I have a lot of work to do.



on the Western
red king crab grounds.

Ah, baby, baby, baby.

Just got to keep eating
and keep drinking.

OK, how are you feeling?

[Heather speaking]

Hundred and two?

Yeah.

Aboard the Time Bandit.

[John] We got the flu
on the boat.

[John grunts]

So hopefully these guys
all don't get sick on me.

I drink so much milk,

I think, is why I don't get
as sick as they do.

Vitamin D and Zinc.

[deckhand] Yeah!

Right now, you know,
I've got an offload date.

We can't miss it.

Four days to get back.

I've got to load that tank.

I've got to come in with
as many crab as I can.

[deckhand] Whoo!

[John] 50,000 pounds.

We've got to be
real careful here.

-OK, coming up, guys.
-[deckhand] Roger that.

[Freddy] Yeah!

Come on to me, baby.

[deckhand] Yeah, baby.

Alright, this one's got
some crabbies in it.

We're gonna be pretty happy.
Pretty darn happy.

[Russell]
Pot coming up.

Whoo-hoo-hoo,
don't know what to do.

[Russell] Come on.
Come on.

Coming up, man!

Are you good?
Do you like it?

-It's go time, baby.
-[deckhand] Oh, yeah.

They got crab, man.

Ooh, I see
a couple legs in there,

see a little bit of color.

[Russell]
Fish on, baby, fish on.

[deckhand]
OK, take it away.

[Russell] One-five!



OK.
Pot number two.

Let's go get another one.

[Freddy]
Come to papa!

Coming in!

[Freddy]
Keep 'em coming.

OK.

Now there's a few little ones.
There's a few crabs.

[deckhand speaking]

Nine.

Nine.

OK, nine crab.

You know, nines and fifteens.

I just got to pick 'em up
until we find something.

-How you doing, Teddy?
-[Freddy] Ha!

How you feeling?

[Teddy speaking]

Yeah, it's like the whole body
is just numb.

Sick is sick.

[Teddy] Yeah,
it doesn't matter.

[John] I just don't want
the crew to get sick,

but it's -- not falling down
yet, we're throwing up.

We don't want them to get
worthless in a week.

We can still do it,
but we, I mean...

I can roll through this gear,
but moving it,

that's not gonna happen.

[deckhand speaking]

I got to get to the gear twice.

Got to grind on what I find.

[John grunts]

I can't lose anybody off deck.

Hey, come on in
for a second, guys.

Talk to you.

[deckhand]
Coming up.

OK...

Hey, Neal.
Get everyone a carton.

-sh**t.
-Hey, guys.

We got a big grind coming.

I need everyone strong.

So we got to start
drinking milk.

Every six hours...

drink that much.

There you go.
That's yours.

So this is gonna help us
all not get sick.

Freddy?

It's proven, Google it
if you have a chance.

Did you know that milk
is the only liquid

you can actually live on?
-Really?

It worked good for my first
couple of years.

[laughing]

Vitamin D and zinc.

OK, start drinking.
Cheers.

[deckhand] Yes, Captain.

[cheering]

[bleep]

Agh!
That's good stuff.

Let's go back to work.

Roger that.

[John] I don't got time
for no flu out here.

Time now is gonna keep
that crab going.



in Dutch Harbor.

[OJ] Good, grab that hook.

[deckhand speaking]

This is -- it stopped raining.

-It's weird.
-That's what I'm saying.

Oh, my god, that wind
was something else.

Aboard the Wizard.

[Monte] This is
kind of interesting.

This is a text
that came in from Calvin.

"So boss, I need 10 grand.
I gotta pay mortgage,

"car payments,
next month's rent.

Can you do it in the next hour?"

Yeah, I saw that
and just kind of went, "Wow."

Oh, this bottom one
right here.

[Keith] That's it.

"Give me a bunch of money,
and I'll be on the next plane

out of here.
See you later."

Red flag number two hoisted.

Hey, kid!

This guy's never fished
king crab before, you know.

It's not gonna work.

David Wilson, the owner
of the Destination,

couldn't remember him.

If he worked for David Wilson
for 10 years as a deckhand.

-David Wilson would know this.
-Would know this, OK?

I think getting rid of Calvin
is the obvious answer.

[Keith] Right.
The sooner we get him
off the boat, the better.

Hey, can you ask Calvin
to come up to the wheelhouse?

Thank you.

Quick, surgical, and done.

Hey, what's going on, gentlemen?

Not much.

So Calvin, I'm trying to keep
it brief, but uh...

we're going to, uh,

I'm gonna release you, OK?
I'm not taking you fishing.

-What?
-Yeah.

-Are you kidding me?
-I'm not kidding you.

I'm totally serious.
What do you mean, what happened?

Quite frankly,
you're underqualified

for the job
that I hired you to do.

And I can't have that.

So you're flying me out
of here, I take it,

and getting some money
for what I've done?

You know, I'm gonna give you
two grand total,

and then plane ticket
out on the next flight.

-That's what you get.
-OK.

-Let's do it.
-[Keith] Alright.

[Calvin] OK.

He can't tell me he's shocked
and he didn't see this coming.

I don't have another crewman
blowing up my phone and saying,

"Give me a bunch of money."

This is not a full-share
way of being treated.

This is gonna be difficult
enough for the crew I have.

Ready.

I don't have the luxury
of having somebody like that

on my boat.

Right now, I just
got to get back to work.

Hopefully, there's a job
that I can get.

We go pound the docks.

That's what we're gonna do.

We don't give up.

Just outside Dutch Harbor...

I have never been happier
to tie up this boat.

Felipe and I are just exhausted.

...on the Titan Explorer.

I know it's been a long night,
Felipe, but we need to get

on those vents, take putty,
go through all the vent pipes.

Roger, Roger.

Felipe's gonna find any crack,
leak, or hole that could be

taken on water,
mixing with our fuel.

[unintelligible]

[suspenseful music playing]

I'm heading to the clinic
right now.

And I need to make sure my mind
and body are fit for duty.

I'm gonna get checked out
and see what they can do.

Got to try.



on the western
red king crab grounds.

[intriguing music playing]

[John] All your muscles
ache like mother?

I'm like, worthless
right now, man.

I hope I don't get sick, man.

So I mean, I'm having
these guys chug milk,

but you can't let the flu win.
You can't let it beat you.

With the highly contagious
norovirus now affecting

both his wife, Heather,
and his brother, Neal,

Captain Jonathan attempts
to haul his last


his deckhands get sidelined

by worsening symptoms.

[John] Drinking Vitamin D,
getting sunshine.

That helps you out a lot.

Yeah...brutal.

We got one coming up, Freddy.

[Freddy]
OK, Roger!

[Russell]
I'm feeling it, Freddy.

[Freddy cheering]

[Teddy]
Slow and smooth, brother.

[John]
They look rough.

But these guys are troopers.
They're not giving up.

I mean, we just got
to keep chugging.

We got to get this done.

[Russell]
Coming up.

There's not that many crab here.

There's a few in there.

I'm just gonna keep rolling
them, guys.

We just got to get through 'em.

[deckhand] Roger.

[Russell]
Just throw it over.

No rest for the wicked.
We got no choice

but to get through this.

[Freddy groans]

[tense music playing]

Oh.

[deckhand]
You alright, Freddy?

[retching sounds]

Oh, Freddy was throwing up
over the rail.

Aye, aye, aye.

We'll get through this.

[Freddy]
Roger that.

[suspenseful music playing]

[deckhand] Oh.

Three.

Got to pull another one.

[deckhand] Whoo!

[retching sounds]

Oh, Jared's thowin' up.

Oh, god.

Yeah, man.
Man, that hurts me, dude.

[retching sounds]

Oh.

Uh...Teddy bear's
throwing up.

Oh, my god.

Oh, those poor
b*stards.

-You poor b*stards.
-[indistinct speaking]

[tense music playing]

[retching sounds]

[John speaking]

Guys.

[retching sounds]

Oh, my god.

Garrett threw up once.

I've seen Teddy bear throw up,
Steven, Russell, and Freddy.

The glass of milk's
not gonna cure this one.

We're really in trouble.

[John] This is not
our finest hour.

On the Time Bandit...

The whole boat's sick.

Argh.

[tense music playing]

[John] But if we could reset all
these and get another pick,

then I could get that offload.

[retching sounds]

Aye, aye, aye.

Hey, Steve.

You're not looking good, buddy.

[Steve speaking]

He ain't doing good.

[Russell] Copy!

[John] That's the last thing
we needed on here.

Can't work with three guys.

Code Red over here.

These guys get sick
all the time.

And I don't get sick.

The last five or six flus we've
had on here, I've been fine.

Hey, Neal.

They need a fourth guy
out there.

We can't do this.

Right.

I'll just run out, I'll finish
this string off.

OK.

I'm sending in reinforcements.

We're gonna get through this
together, guys.

You run the pots.
I'll throw the hook.

-[Neal] Yeah.
-[John] Been a while.

-Break you in slowly.
-Break me in slow.

[Russell]
Throw it over.

Yeah, yeah.
Perfect, perfect fit.

Need an extra guy.
Johnny's the man.

Not too many captains
go out there on deck.

Throw the hook.

[John] Alright.
Let's do this.

I think I can do this.

[deckhand] Hang on!
Watch out, man!

[John speaking]

-[crew cheering]
-[Teddy] Captain on deck!

Captain on deck!

[Russell] Yeah!
Right on!

-We can use you.
-[John] I'm ready, baby.

-[Neal] Coming up, young man.
-[Teddy] Go, Captain,

-Go, Captain, go!
-[John] Alright, let's do it.

[John grunts]

Whoo!

Here you go, Teddy bear.

-Whoo!
-[Russell] Yeah, baby!

Right on, brother!

[Teddy] Yeah, buddy!

Here we go!

-Yeah, brother!
-[John laughs]

[John] Coming up.
Coming up.

[Teddy] Whoo!

Yeah, Captain!

[John]
Helping the boys.

Good job, guys.

[deckhand] Yeah.

When you're 62,
you only do about half as good

as you ever was.

Ever was.

Pot's ready, Russell.

[John] Whatever we
got to do to get home.

[deckhand] Woo!



in Dutch Harbor.

[Monte] We're struggling
to get Calvin off the island.

He needs to utilize
his ticket home,

because it's not open-ended.

And Calvin's
gonna be responsible

for his own ticket to Seattle.

Nobody likes the way
this has ended.

Let's move on.

[phone vibrating]

Oh, this is Sig Hansen.
What the [bleep]

has he got going on?

What do you want?

[Sig speaking]

[Monte] You're probably not
the only boat in town

that he's pestering
looking for a job.

It's probably not gonna
cease until I can convince him

to get on a plane
and get out off the island.

-Alright, alright.
-And thank you.

I'm out too.
Bye.

Calvin's been pulling
this from the word go.

Let's see
what my brother thinks.

[tense music playing]

Got a lot of...

drugs.

None of them are gonna
make me feel good quick.

So the news I got
from the doctors was not good.

Told me to quit my job.

Well, that ain't gonna happen.

[intriguing music playing]

We talked about
the panic attacks.

I had a lot of trauma
in my life.

These last few days, man,
catching up with me.

Panic attacks don't just,
boom, you have one

and they go away, no.

But for now, I'm just gonna
take it day by day.

The boat has her issues.
I have my issues.

Neither of us can quit.

But I'm strong enough
to be like, "OK, well,

I need to make changes."

For now, I got crab to catch.

I didn't get set
the way that I'd like.

I didn't cover the ground
I wanted to cover.

I just hope
I find significant life.

Time to go fishing.

[tense music playing]

Calvin's supposed to be long
gone, but he seems to just keep

lurking around this beach.

[phone vibrating]

Hello.

[Monte speaking]

[Keith] I'm actually halfway
from Captain's Bay to the Rat.

I'm walking into one more bar,
and if he's not there, I'm done.

[Monte]
OK, I'm gonna let you go.

-Alright.
-[Monte] Alright, bye.

I'm not eating
an $850 plane ticket

for somebody
that wants to no-show.

[Keith and hostess speaking]

[Monte]
Are we gonna find Calvin?
I don't know.

[tense music playing]

OK, so we've been in this,
you know,

we're just checking boxes here.

[Keith] It's like
the first guy I know

that does he doesn't want
to get off the island.

I've had like 15 different
fishermen said, "What?"

Threatening lawsuits?
And you're buying his airfare?"

Yeah, I'm paying him to get him

the [bleep] off
this island, man.

I'm just gonna tell him, "Here's
the deal, get on the plane.

Either use the ticket
or lose it."

That's it.

You know?
I'm done.

Hands clean.

-Hey, Calvin.
-We have nothing to talk about.

-You're right.
-Thank you.

Good.

This is the fourth flight
I put you on.

I just said, we don't have
nothing to talk about.

So don't talk to me.

You want me to show you
your text to me?

You know who
I just got a job with?

-Good, who?
-On Aleutian Number One.

-So [bleep] you.
-You're on Aleutian Number One?

-[Calvin] That's right.
-Perfect, I'm can --

[Calvin] Don't talk to me!

-Your plane --
-You know what Rick said?

-Your plane --
-[Calvin] [bleep].

-Your plane ticket --
-I am doing that, there's --

Your plane ticket's
[bleep] canceled right now.

-No, I'm going there.
-No, no, no.

You're gone, I'm --
I'm canceling right now.

-[John] Thanks, Neal.
-Yeah.

My brother just brought me up
a root beer float.

That'll carry you.

Never, ever pass up
a root beer float.

That's all I'm gonna tell you,
in your whole life.

Ice creams, milk, vitamin D.

I heard somewhere,
more than half the people

in the United States
is vitamin D deficient.

That's what I thought I heard.

Neal figured out how to do
root beer float.

You put it in a bowl.

Then you could put
three scoops,

and it doesn't overflow.

He solved the root beer
float problem.

[Neal laughs]

[guttural sounds]

-Thank you, my brother.
-[Neal] Yeah.

-[Keith] Your plane ticket --
-[Calvin] I am doing that.

Your plane ticket is
[bleep] canceled right now.

-No, I'm going there.
-No, no, no, you're gone.

I'm canceling right now.

[Calvin] You cancel that,
you'll get a bigger lawsuit.

[Keith]
It's canceled right now.

You better get on it
or you're gone.

-[Calvin] I'm already here.
-OK, you just --

[Calvin]
My bag's right here.

You told me you got
a job, right?

[Calvin] Oh, that's
what I'm doing next.

-You got a job.
-But that's none of
your business.

You have a job.
You just told me you have a job.

-No.
-[Calvin] I'm here.

-You're --
-I'm going on the flight.

-You got 60 seconds
to check in.
-[bleep]

-Check your --
-That's all I got to say.

-Check your text...of threats.
-See you later.

-[bleep]
-What?

And that's who that guy is.
Classic piece of [bleep].

[tense music playing]

We've put more energy
into this one bad apple...

than anybody.

Probably one of the best
decisions I've ever made.

Goodbye, good riddance.

[tense music playing]

Right now, the main thing
is focusing on the boat,

the crew, make sure we leave...

safe.

-[deckhand] Whoo!
-[John] Let's go!

Get 'em off!
Get 'em off, go!

Come on!

[cheering]

Come in when you're done.

We did it, baby!
Oh my god!

[John] Whatever we got to do
together to get through it.

-[Heather] OK.
-[John] That's what matters.

You can't let the flu win.
You can't let it beat you.

We'll just keep on fishing,
just we're a machine.

We're a machine that don't stop.
Just -- shoop, shoop.

Just keep on going.
We don't give up.

[Jenna speaking]

Having a hard time emotionally
since Uncle Nick died.

Can really mess you up.

[Jenna] I know.

[Jake] It brings up all
the other traumas in my life,

like the way that I lost my dad.

I mean, when your parent
goes missing in the woods,

most people don't go
through that.

Hell I'm talking about is
completely different.

[Jake]
I'll call you later.

[Jake] Bye bye.

[dramatic music playing]

Losing Nick, you know,
when you lose somebody

important to you,

you revert back to the last time
you lost somebody

important to you
before their time,

and that was my dad.
I've tried for...

whew...


that it hasn't had
an effect on me,

but honestly, it's taken


to finally catch up with me.

I don't want to be
that way anymore.

I don't know
what to do about it.

Other than to keep hauling gear.

That's all I know how to do.

It's time to get back to work.

Alright, you guys
ready for bairdi?

First pot.
Here we go.

If this doesn't work,
I just burned two days

I can't get back.

[Felipe] Pot, coming up!

Pot!

Come on.

[Mac] Yeah!

[cheering]

Yeah, dude.

We're in them, guys.
We're in them.

Mac, guys, we're in them!

-[deckhand] Yeah.
-That's awesome.

-[cheering]
-[deckhand] Coming!

[cheering]

-Yeah!
-Whoo!

[Felipe speaking]

[deckhand speaking Spanish]

Oh god, what a relief.

But I've only got so much time
to catch this bairdi,

I better get on it.
