20x04 - Lights Out!

Post by bunniefuu »

[urinating]

[zipping]

Wow. [chuckles]

I never thought
I'd be so excited

about having a strong stream.

It's been a while
since I could clear the steps

taking a leak out the back door.

I started this treatment,

and it's supposed to
soften up the prostate

to make the cancer
less aggressive.

Obviously, there's some success

because I'm getting
my stream back.

[narrator] 20 days
into the fall season,


with over a third
of the fleet-wide


king crab quota
already caught...


[Sophia Nielsen]
We're at Dutch Harbor.

We've got to take
about 40 pots off

before we can get to that,
before we're attached.

Coming in hot.

We need to get in and out
of town as fast as possible

and get back out
there and get it done.

[narrator]Captains
turn their sights


to the remaining


$18 million red king payday.

The last two days, my
guys have slept four hours.

[deckhand 1] Let's go!

[Captain Keith Colburn]And
it's starting to show.


[deckhand 2] Hold on, there!

- Whoa! [bleep] -
[deckhand 3] Lights! Lights!

[Captain Colburn] Roger,
get to the engine room.

[deckhand 4] Oh
my God. Now what?

No one's gonna stop
me from saying that!

Hey, guys!

Those words cannot be said.

[Erik]

[Captain Gregg Wallace]
They're not on the boat?

Everybody's supposed
to be on the boat.

Coming up on the rail,
guys. Watch out. Watch out!

Watch out! Here it comes!

[seagull squawking]

[narrator] 185 miles
north of Dutch Harbor...


[Roger speaking]

[deckhand 1] That's it! Grab it!

[Roger] Yeah.

We haven't seen weather
like this since last winter.

[narrator] On the Wizard...

Weather's gonna be on your
starboard side while I make this turn.

[deckhand 1] Roger!

[Captain Colburn] We're
definitely up to gale warning now

and we're seeing some 18
footers coming through here.

[deckhands shouting]

We're gambling that
the crab are here.

The overall plan is this.

We're just gonna set down wind.

This area right through here.

The yellow is a
closed area. All right?

We'll hopefully find
something to keep it here on.

And then we may
have to just hunker down

and set the gear in the storm.

I don't know if we'll
be able to fish that.

It might be too bad.

[narrator]With a 150-mile-wide

low pressure
system bearing down,


Captain Keith Colburn
sets in a building 18-foot sea


near the border of the
legal fishing grounds,


targeting his remaining


[indistinct shouting]

[Captain Colburn]

- [deckhand 1] Yes, sir.
- [deckhand 2] There it goes!

Whoo!

If it's going at 15 knots

and I'm doing six
knots into it, that's like...

Well, it's like
[chuckles] a car crash.

- Whoo!
- There it is.

[bleep]

Hey Tyler, watch the rail on
these next two waves. Okay?

[all groaning]

[Captain Colburn]

[deckhand 2] Whoa.

[Captain Colburn] The
weather just started picking up.

We get a big one that kind of
crests right below my window.

It subsides.

And the next one is the one that's
gonna crest right in the workstation.

[Tyler] Going over.

[cheering]

[giggles]

[exhales]

- [cheers]
- [laughs]

- [deep beep]
- Going over!

[electric crackle]

- [deckhand 1] Whoa! [bleep]
- [deckhand 2] Lights! Lights!

[Captain Colburn] Roger,
get to the engine room.

[Tyler]

Push it over. Get everybody
away from it. Push it over.

I cannot see anything.

[Tyler] Push it off.

- [deckhand 3] Good job, Tyler.
- [Tyler] Watch those buoys. Get rid of 'em.

Here!

[shouting]

Get the [grunts]
emergency light on here.

[clicking]

[Roger shouting]

[Captain Colburn]
And boom. Sha-bang.

You got lights coming back.

No, everything's
starting to come back.

- Yep.
- I got... All my electronics are back on.

I mean, what happened?

Well, I went down there, and
there were sparks flying out of the...

One of the main breakers
that goes to the port key panel.

And in turn, that kicked
off the main breaker.

So I've got the problematic
breaker isolated right now,

and we got our
main breaker back.

So we've got power right now.

[Captain Colburn] Okay,
let's... Let's kind of just regroup.

- [Roger] Okay.
- [Captain Colburn] And then, get back to work.

- All right. Thanks, Rog.
- Yep.

You know, while we're sailing,
to go dark ship in the storm

is about the last
thing you'd ever want.

Meantime, I've still
got some pots on deck

I need to get off
the boat real quick.

Now, are we on any crab?

It's anybody's
guess. I don't know.

[deckhand 2 cheers]

[narrator] 180 miles
south in Dutch Harbor...


[Captain Wallace]
That's the last brailer?

Yeah. Yeah, that's
the last brailer.

Really down to the wire.

I want to see the final
weight, what they say.


[narrator]After
two weeks at sea,


skipper-in-training
Sophia Bob Nielsen


and Captain Gregg Wallace
button up their first off load


before resupplying
the 109-foot
Seabrooke

and heading back to the grounds.

[Captain Wallace]
How much we got?

Came out to being 15,500.

- Wow.
- 15,500.

- [all cheering] -
[deckhand] Hell yeah.

[Captain Wallace]
Good job, guys.

You guys get to
go out for a night.

- So, good job.
- [clapping]

Good job, babe! Whoo!

We'll be responsible
and take care of the guys.

No duals all night.

- No duals.
- [laughing]

- Bobby said he wants a
double [bleep] - Yeah, yeah.

So be home by midnight.

And then we'll get back at
it and go get the rest of this,

head back out so
don't be too hungover.

Ain't nobody drive,
so that's the key.

- [deckhand 1] We'll be responsible, but having fun.
- [Captain Wallace] Right.

You're in charge, so
make sure they get home.

- Large and in charge. Yes, sir.
- By midnight.

Yeah, there you go.

- Night on the town, boys!
- Let's go.

- I got my town clothes on. What? Hell yeah.
- Let's go.

It's nice that Gregg
lets everybody out

and go cut loose after,
you know, working.

It's gonna be fun tonight.

First night off in a while.

There's no rules.

- [laughs] - The rules
are out the window.

- It gets a little wild.
- Have bail money ready.

Yeah, have bail money ready.

- It gets a little wild.
- Yep.

- [deckhand 1] Whoo-hoo!
- [deckhand 2] Let's go!

[Captain Wallace] They're not in their
[bleep] bunks where they're supposed to be.

[bleep] 8:00 a.m. is gonna
be [bleep] coming early

because they're obviously
a bunch of [bleep] idiots.

[lighter clicks]

This is why I
don't let them drink

unless I go sit with
them and have a beer

and make sure they come in.

I don't like to do that.

You know, I'm not
a [bleep] babysitter.

[phone ringing]

Yo.

They're not on the boat?

Well, I don't want... Everybody
supposed to be on the boat.

I don't even [bleep]
believe this [bleep]

[dramatic music playing]

Bob and [bleep]
ding-a-ling are coming back.

They were over by
the [bleep] harbor,

so they went out there
drinking and driving.

What time is it?



This isn't [bleep] cool.
I don't understand that.

That is not [bleep]
being responsible.

See, I... I am no more
Mr. [bleep] nice guy, man.

I am [bleep] sick
of this [bleep]

[cameraman groans]
The walk of shame.

[Captain Wallace]

[light switch clicking]

- [cameraman] That's when
they... - That's what they know. Yep.

[Nick]

[Malik]

[Nick]

[bleep] let go of me, bro!

- Seriously!
- Are you dead a*s?

- Are you [bleep] dead a*s, bro?
- [blow lands]

- Bro, I'm not [bleep] playing with you.
- [Malik speaking]

You piss on me and you can't
even [bleep] own up to your [bleep]

I swear to [bleep] bro.

- No, I...
- [deckhand 1] Hey!

[Malik] Stop, bro.

[Nielsen] Y'all need to
take this [bleep] outside.

- [Nick] No, no.
- Take it outside.

[Nick] You can step out, bro.

And tell me you want to [bleep] take
responsibility for what you just did?

- You're [bleep] up, obviously.
- Take this [bleep] outside.

[Nick]

No more nice guy.

Hey, is everybody in
here that can hear me?

- [Nielsen] Yeah.
- [Captain Wallace] Okay.

[bleep] fighting, all this
[bleep] that ain't how we roll.

I expect more and
better out of all you guys.

We're going to make mistakes.

But when you
self-implode like that,

that's our own fault.

It's unfortunate that,
you know, trying to...

Trying to get
everybody wrangled up

is like trying to get feral cats
to all get in a car together.

You get out and you're in town
and it gets out of hand pretty quickly.

[narrator] On the Seabrooke...

- Good morning, guys.
- [deckhand 1] Good morning.

Good morning, Malik.

[Malik]

[Captain Wallace] Not
very [bleep] good, obviously.

So you guys need to start
listening to directions, please.

- Yeah.
- I told everybody don't [bleep] drive.

Nobody should have
been driving last night.

[Nando] We didn't.

Well, somebody was.

I don't know who
and I don't care who,

but the vehicle [bleep]
moved, and that's not cool.

So you're staying, I'm assuming?

- Yeah.
- Okay. All right.

[Malik] We all [bleep] up.

I was blacked out and me
and Nick got into an argument.

But we're good now.

[Nick] What the [bleep]
is wrong with you, bro?

[narrator] After an inebriated


Malik Kearney, urinated
on bunkmate Nick,


Nick punched him in the
mouth, dislodging one of his teeth.


[Malik]

Um, it sucks, but
it's what happens

when you're on the boat with someone
for a while. And what happened?

[Captain Wallace]

Oh God.

If they were blacking out,

thinking they're in a bathroom
and not in the bathroom...

[bleep] that's some
serious lack of self-control,

and that's not what I want.

That's not what I'm
looking for in my crew.

I gotta have a talk with Sophia.

If she wants to be a captain,
she's got to be more responsible.


[narrator] 230 miles
northeast of Dutch Harbor...


Okay, let it go.

[deckhand 1] Pot
going over. Going over.

[narrator]On the Aleutian Lady.

We've been tracking this
biomass for a few days.

The captain wants to set two
long strings, one alongside the east

and one alongside the
west of the schooling.

If we're reading
this right, the crab...

They have to go
through the schooling.

The question is which side.

[narrator] As Captain Rick Shelford
grabs some much needed shut eye,


skipper-in-training Jacob Hutchins chases
a school along a 58 fathom depression


and spurs the remaining
crew to fire all 40 pots.


- [beeps] - [deckhand


I'm not a captain yet.

But captain in
training? I'll take it.

[bleep]

When I'm trying to do my work,

I gotta do somebody else's work.

[Jacob Hutchins] When I'm
not out there, it's harder for them.

It's one man down.

And that's the way
they see it right now.

However, this is how it works.

You can't learn this
position without being in it.

Going over.

I'm just tired of just lazy
[bleep] as*h*le people.

They're just too [bleep]
lazy. Can't do [bleep]

All they want to
do is [bleep] talk.

[Hutchins] Rick
gave me this position

and he could
easily take it away.

I'm gonna prioritize my
focus on doing what he says

and not listening to
what everyone else thinks.

- [beeps] - [deckhand


[Captain Rick Shelford]
So how'd it go, man?

Hey.

So you got these right
where we were talking about?

Yeah, east side.

- Nice. Everything...
- [Matt speaking]

[Hutchins] There's
a lot of chatter.

There's some heckling.

There's some naysayers for sure.

[Captain Shelford] The
way you deal with that...

- Is that, man.
- [Hutchins] Roger that.

Go out there, bust some a*s,
show them how it's really done.

Thanks, Rick.

[Captain Shelford on speaker]All
right, guys. Jacob's on his way back out.


Quit your crying, and
let's bust some a*s.


[Hutchins] Yeah, roger.

We just have a
couple guys out there

that have a bee in their bonnet

because Jacob's up
here driving the boat

when they're still
stuck down here.

[Hutchins]

[Matt]

- That's me.
- [Hutchins] Have you run the hydros?

- I can.
- How many times have you ran the hydros this trip?

- [Matt] You want me to?
- This whole season?

- [Matt] I can.
- Then, why don't you go do that?

- Get the [bleep] back there right now!
- Then, I'll do that.

- [Hutchins] I will.
- Get the [bleep] back there.

[Captain Shelford]Back
the
[bleep] off.

Stay on the aft end,
stay on the front end,


I'll deal with this
[bleep] when we're done.

We're working right now,
so knock the [bleep] off.

Roger!

[deckhand]

[Matt]

[bleeping]

[Hutchins]

[Matt]

[Hutchins] Oh my God,
Matt. Why would you... Why?

'Cause I can!

[Hutchins] Okay.

Nobody's gonna stop
me from saying that.

Hey, guys, knock
that [bleep] off!

Who's gonna stop me?

- [beeps] - Nobody's
gonna stop me.

[deckhand] Going over.

I want everybody on
my back deck now.

[Hutchins] Roger that.

[Captain Shelford] Guys...

I'm not putting up
with that on this boat.

We are not going to racially
as*ault or belittle somebody.

It is not happening.

Those words cannot be said.

Matt, you are off
deck right now.

You are done.

Let's get this thing done

and get this offload taken
care of as quick as we can.

Okay?

- All right.
- All right, you guys.

Effective right
now, Matt is off deck


and I'll never bring him back.

You can't do that and it's
bull [bleep] what Matt said.

[Hutchins] He doesn't like that I
haven't done as much bait as him.


But he can't do
everything on deck.

So he thinks I'm lazy because
I'm not doing as much bait,

but I have to relieve Noah
when he wants to throw hook.


No one else can run hydros.

I need to make sure that we
get this quota before my offload.

And being short crewed...

Means I might not get it.

But I just got to believe
we're doing the right thing.

Jacob, come upstairs after you
have time to cool off. All right?

Let's chat.

[narrator]55 miles northeast...

On the Summer Bay.

[Captain Wild Bill Wichrowski]
This weather isn't any fun, I guess.

These are difficult pots to
run up on the way the current is

and the way the bags are laying.

[deckhand cheers]

Well, we're about to
haul the first trip up.

We're going up
against a wall here.

These two tight lines here.

In that short
distance, it changes

by about a fathom and a
quarter to almost two fathoms.

I call it The Wall.

[narrator] Stalking a school
near an underwater ledge,


Captain Wild Bill Wichrowski
fights ten-foot seas


to catch his remaining 23,000
pounds of red king crab quota.


Whoo!

[Captain Wild Bill] It's
just been a weird year.

Me, with this cancer thing,
decided to do it while I'm fishing.

I'm not sure what the
treatment's gonna do.

[narrator] And rallies through the
side effects of hormone injections,


including fatigue and nausea,

aimed at stopping the
growth of his prostate cancer.


All in all, we're in a
pretty good position.

[deckhand 1] Stay clear
of the crane comin' in.

[deckhand 2] Oh yeah.

- Whoo!
- [deckhand 1] Yes, sir!

[Captain Wild Bill]
That's looking pretty good.

There it is!

- [deckhands
cheering] - [laughing]

[bleep]

[deckhand 1 shouting]



- Whoa!
- There it is!

[Captain Wild Bill
on speaker]Ka-ching!

Yeah, this is great. Doing good.

Super!

[cheers]

[Erik speaking]

Okay.

[bleep]

Just when it gets going good.

[groans] And God
knows what this could be.

I guess when things
get going too good...

It turns around and
bites you in the a*s.

We got a hydraulic fluid leak,

and we're just kinda honing
in on where it's coming from,

but it's somewhere
in the hydros here.

[groans] And God
knows what this could be.

[narrator]On the Summer Bay...

[Captain Wild Bill] Hopefully,
it's a gauge. That's the easiest fix.

Hopefully, it's not some weird
crack in a pipe or something.

There it is!

Yeah, we just got a little
hydraulic leak in the engine room.

A pinhole in a main,
hard pipe where it bent.

[Landon] We got a pinhole in the
plumbing for the hydraulic plant.

I got a plan, though.

- In the stainless?
- Yeah.

Just turning it on.

There it is.

So I'll show you
how it's routed.

It's coming from that hose
over the exhaust right to there.

There's a hose there.

That might not
be a hose fitting.

Oh, like that might
be a different kind of...

- [Captain Wild Bill] Could be a compression issue.
- [bleep]

I don't know. Break the
fitting and see what it is.

You might loosen it.

[Landon] You want to
loosen it and just take...

Just loosen it and see it.

- You know?
- [Landon] Okay. Got it.

Wow.

It's right on a bend and the
bend's stainless. It gets thin.

A lot of cavitation there where
the fluid changes direction

and it just needed a
way out of it, I guess.

Oh man. I hope we don't
get shut down on this [bleep]

It is a long way to town.

All right, we need
to give her a shot.

[narrator]285 miles southwest...

[Captain Wallace] Do I
want a [bleep] hungover crew

putting a [bleep] stack on for
us to travel into the Bering Sea?

That [bleep]
could get us k*lled.

[narrator] On the Seabrooke...

We could shift
a load, roll over.

It's the ripple effect.

- Even though it don't seem like much...
- [Nielsen] Yeah.

The end result could
be a [bleep] tsunami

when it started with a
little pebble in the water.

If I'm not there
and you're there,

I expect you to represent me as, you
know, the other captain on the boat.

So that's... You've got to do it.

You'll get it.

So if you don't, you'll be gone.

So it's that simple.

- So... [chuckles]
- Absolutely.

I'm... not part of the
crew, unfortunately.

Well, it sucks to be a leader.

All those guys are older
than me, which is like, it's...

Are you old enough to vote?

- I'm old enough to vote.
- Okay. You're a grown up.

I don't feel comfortable telling people
who are older and more experienced than me

what to do and how to
do their job and, you know.

You're going to have crew members
that have been doing it longer than you.

But where are they?
Where are you?

That's the reality of it.

I mean, you could be 13
instead of 23 and still be a captain.

I've seen it up in Bristol Bay.

But you are a captain
of your own boat.

So therefore, start
acting like one.

Hey, I need my bike moved
so we can bring pots down.

I... I appreciate the slap on
the wrist and reality check.

I think it's time for me to
pull my head out of my a*s

and start being a
captain around here.

- It's up to you guys... - So I'm
gonna pull my head out of my a*s.

I'm gonna do it.

I feel pretty
shameful right now.


[Captain Wallace] We'll
figure it out as we go, Bobby.

[narrator] 185 miles north...

On the Wizard.

[waves crashing]

Oh yeah, it's stacking
up pretty good.

We set these pots
with the weather.

The problem is we set
them from north to south,

so I'm going downwind
until I get right to the pot,

then I've got to do a hard turn

and put the boat
right in the ditch

on the starboard side,
which is really gnarly.

[narrator] 11 miles from
the king crab border,


with his gear set perpendicular
to the wind and tide,


Captain Keith bets circling
on pots and 20-foot breakers,


is worth a shot at tanking


All right. Coming
up. Watch yourself.

This one's really
bad on the side.

Boy, that is a nice
wave coming up.

Dang. [exclaims] Hello.

[chuckles]

[ship groaning]

Come on.

[knocking]

- Yeah!
- [all cheering]

[triumphant music playing]





[deckhand] Whoo! All right!

It's glorious.

36!

- There we go.
- [deckhand] Whoo!

Not the best way to hold gear

because you really don't want
to haul in this kind of weather.

Whoa! Here it comes one.

Heads up on the
rail, guys. Watch out!

Watch out! Watch
out! Here it comes!


[narrator] On the Wizard.

Heads up on the
rail, guys. Watch out!

Watch out! Watch
out! Here it comes!


I need a head count.

[deckhand 1] All
here. We all here?

- All clear.
- [deckhand 2] We're good.

[deckhand 1] We're okay.

Way to scramble, guys. Good job.

[deckhand 1]

[Captain Colburn] Thank you.

Yeah, you're my eyeballs.
You're gonna see it before I do.

I'm not gonna catch it until it
comes right down the window here.

We got the sun out, but...

The sea is swelling.

[dramatic music playing]

- Pull it up! [cackles]
- Yeah!

Wow.

Yeah, baby.



[Captain Colburn on
speaker]32! Right on!

All right, that's good news.



Let's get out the old Wizard
whistle and haul 'em in!

[mimics melodic whistle]

Good news about...
Starting to slow like this,

that 32 count
looks awfully good.


And I'm kind of getting the
boys pumped up a little bit.

[Roger] Whoo!

[Captain Colburn] Just
need to keep that up.

But if the tide
actually does turn

and starts running
against these waves...

Now, that could shut us down

regardless of what we got on
deck and what we got in the water.

Kind of hope not, but that
possibility definitely exists.

[narrator] 230 miles east...

[Landon]

[narrator]Aboard the Summer Bay.

I don't know what else
we can do with that thing.

[narrator] After finding signs
of life near a 62 fathom ledge


on the northern grounds,

a hydraulic leak grinds
Wild Bill's operation to a halt.


It's got to be like,
a miniscule pinhole.

If it would split,
we're totally screwed.


Only thing I can think of is...

If you went back further...

Past where that piping tag's in.

I wonder if you followed
it back a little further,

you could get the hose and find
a way to go hose-to-hose on it.

If we have the
right frickin' fittings.

[Landon]

- Is that the right size or no?
- [Mike]

Great. Let's go.

[narrator] Tapping into the veritable
metal shop below the
Summer Bay's deck,

Captain Wild Bill and deck boss
Landon Cheney bet on a makeshift repair


to fix their hydraulic system

and avoid a costly
$10,000 steam back to town.


[Landon] All right,
that's gonna be...

[Captain Wild Bill]

[Landon]

[Captain Wild Bill]

- That's the one.
- That'll... That'll handle the hydraulics?

- [Landon]
- There, you got it.

[Landon] Sweet.

[Captain Wild Bill]

[laughs]

[Landon]

[Captain Wild Bill] Yeah?

[Landon]

[Captain Wild Bill] Badass, man.

[Landon]

Nice.

- Get cleaned up.
- [Landon] Roger.

Being on these boats
is problem solving 101.

[Landon]

I think we're getting dialed in
on what we need to do here.

[deckhands cheering]

[Captain Wild Bill] We
gotta get through more gear.

Hopefully it keeps up.

[narrator]60 miles southwest...

[Captain Shelford]

[narrator]Aboard
the
Aleutian Lady.

[Hutchins] [bleep] sucks.

But it's a familiar feeling.

But if Matt stays inside
and stays off deck,

then we're gonna stand
to lose a lot of money.

I don't want to have everyone
else pay for Matt's bull [bleep]

I'm sorry for
what I said to him.

Hopefully, I'll make
it back to him later on

where he can know
that I was sorry for that.

[Captain Shelford]
I had to fire him.

I mean, I can't
put up with that.

All right.

[Captain Shelford]
There is no question at all.

I can't bring him back
after what happened.

There are huge ramifications
if I can't catch all this quota.

[scoffs]

[on speaker] All right,
guys. Let's rock and roll.


[Hutchins] Yeah, roger.

[deckhand] Come
on. Let's go, guys.

Go!

Come on, buddy.
Can't miss those rigs.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Let's hope there's
some crab in here.

We're coming up on the
gully and I got high hopes for it.

I think it's gonna produce.

We've got strings on both sides.

[Hutchins] Coming up!

- Whoo!
- [deckhand] Yeah!

[all cheering]

Yeah, baby. There we go.

- [deckhand 1] Whoo! We got crab!
- [deckhand 2] Oh!

- [Hutchins] Whoo! All right!
- [deckhand 1] Plenty of crab!

Crab in the tank.

Whoo!

[deckhand cheering]

Oh my God!

Oh, yeah!

[Hutchins] Oh yeah.

- There you go.
- [deckhand 1] Oh yeah!

[Captain Shelford] We're on 'em.
We are on 'em and we're gonna get full.

These guys are gonna
make some money.

[Hutchins] Oh [bleep] The coiler's
[bleep] pissing hydro fluid like a [bleep]

Throw it away. Throw it
away. Turn the block off.

[Roger] Hey, buddy.

Your dump truck's gotta go.

[narrator] After suffering a power
failure and a massive wave...


It's never been
there. It's distracting.

[narrator] The Wizard crew surmises
that something has offended the crab gods.


[deckhand]

[Roger]

[Captain Colburn] I believe in
luck. And on a day like today,

I'm probably more superstitious
than anybody you know.

[Roger]

Yeah.

If we have a glorious season,

it can live there forever,

and you can even paint
one there after that. [chuckles]

No, it's going to
give us [bleep]

- It's manifesting the load.
- Okay, okay.

[narrator]While the crew
debates dumping the dump truck,


Keith spots keep dumping
king crab on the table.


[narrator]On the
Aleutian Lady...

[Hutchins] Oh [bleep] The coiler's
[bleep] pissing hydro fluid like a [bleep]

Throw it away, throw it
away, Turn the block off.

[Hutchins] Throw it away?

[Captain Shelford on speaker]Yeah,
get rid of it. I'm turning, I'm turning.


Jacob, you want to check it out?

[Hutchins] I'm
looking at it now, cap.

Damn it! Damn it!

[Hutchins over radio]Do we
have a new motor or what?


- [deckhand 1] Uh...
-
[deckhand 2] This one's our spare.

[Rick] It sucks.

It sucks royally.

I don't have time to waste.

Let's cap it off.

[sighs]

The coiler is the cylinders
on the deck with the tire on top.

And the line comes over the top,

drops in there,

and it just spins
around and it coils itself.


And we can't fix it.

It's going to cost us tens
of thousands of dollars

to go all the way
back to Dutch Harbor.

I'll hand-coil. Let's go.
We got to keep this running.

All right, let's do it.

[Rick] I'm gonna have
Jacob coil right now,


so we can keep
going on this string.


We don't have any extra time

and I need Jacob to
be able to do this fast.

[Jacob] It's not hard,
but it's just tedious.


[Rick] It's a lot of work.

You got to be efficient,

and if you're not
making good coils,

it's gonna make a
mess when we go to set.

[crew cheering]

Yeah!

[man] Crab count 5-1.51.

[Rick] 51.

Hell yeah.

We are filling that tank.

Oh, he's gonna
be tired all right.

[Rick] He's actually
doing a good job.


He's sweating a little bit

and getting a little
bit of a workout.

But that's good for him.

We've all heard the
saying lead by example.


And that's what Jacob's
doing out there right now.

[crew cheering]

I'm hoping this will maintain
going through this string.

We're gonna be
cutting it real close.


[Gregg over PA] I want
to get back on those crabs


before we lose them.

You take for
granted it's so simple,


putting on pots
and going fishing.

We really learned the hard way

that it's a little bit more
than that sometimes.

Hopefully it
doesn't take me out.


[Gregg] He's become
part of the crew.


He's become part of the family.

We have enough
antibiotics on board.


I'm hoping it's okay.

[crew cheering]

[Gregg over PA]I want
to get back out there.


[man yelling] The
boys are dandy!

[Keith over PA]Whoo! Two riders.

That's my bonus pot.

A lot of running around
and burning a lot of fuel.

We worked our way
through a pretty good storm,


definitely been
battling these currents.


But... we are good to go.

- Oh, yeah, baby!
- Oh, yeah, baby!

[Keith over PA]We're
out of here. Okay?


[crew cheering]

[Keith] When we go to town...

Were they lucky?

Maybe we can
get some more quota.


[man] Yeah!

- [metal clanging]
- [grunts]

This spot looks pretty good.

[man] 3-4.3-4.

[crew cheering]

Bam!

[man] Oh, yeah!

[Bill] I would imagine this
is more than enough here.


Yeah, baby.

[Bill over PA] Landon,

drive for a while.
You earned it.


This feels like one
step closer to retirement.

I'm gonna do everything I
can to help you get there.

[Bill] What are you saying?
You want me off the boat?

Hell no.

Is that what he... Is
that what he said?

[chuckles]

[man] That's what
I'm talking about.

Whoo-hoo!

That is what we need.

[man] Right on!

Y'all makin' it happen, baby.

Whoo!

[Rick over PA] Hey,
guys. Last pot coming up.


[man] Ah, yeah!

[Rick over PA]Nice
work out there, Jacob.


You kicked a*s
on the hand-coiling.

Thank you for stepping up, man.

That was big-time.

[Jacob] Roger!

[man] Nice work, Jacob.

That's how you fill the
tank and catch the quota.

[crew cheering]

- Come on!
- Whoo!

I'm proud of Jacob.

For him to stay calm

and not punch
Matt in the face...


Good job, Noah.

Oh, hell yeah.

Badass, man.

[Rick] ...it's a huge tribute
to who Jacob is


as a human being, as a person.

He's showing them
what he's made out of...

Yeah, baby! Whoo!

And he's showing me
he's captain material.
