-Say, newmie,
you seen mitch?

-No, he went to go
pick up a waverunner.

-He should've been back by now.

He's not at headquarters.

-Thought he might be here.
-No.

-Well uh, hobie
called looking for him,

Said he won that a&w
bodyboard challenge.

Said he's bringing
home a year's supply
of cream soda.

-Mitch'll go through
that in a month.

[Laughing]

-I wonder where he could be.

-You know mitch.

He probably found himself
some beautiful woman

And can't drag himself away.

[Laughing]

-Don't go on
another dive, please!

Come on, I want you
to meet my sister.

-I will, caroline.
I'll meet her tonight at dinner.

I wanna meet your sister,

I want to meet
your whole family.

I love you, but I need to
get another core sample.

-So what about jordan?

Come on, he's your partner.

How come you have
to do all the work,

All the time?

-I'm an environment engineer.

He's a businessman.

So I do the diving;
he does the deals.

Bye.

Hey.

I love you.

Tell your sister I
can't wait to meet her.

And if drake's trench
isn't too polluted,

I'll bring back some giant
clams for dinner, okay?

-Okay.

I'll bring dessert.

-I don't believe it! Hi!

C.j.! Hi!

-Does stephanie know
you're here?

-No. I wanted to surprise her.

C.j., I am engaged.

-Well that's
gonna surprise her!

-I met him on a glacier.

-Well that doesn't surprise me.

Let me see,

He's either an
environmentalist or an eskimo.

-Well, his name's
frank randall, so--

-He's not an eskimo.

-He's actually
partners in a company

That monitors
corporate america's

Environmental compliance
with government regulations.

-A watchdog for the planet!

I like him already!

-Oh, I like him, too.

Stephanie's gonna love him,

But, uh, he's mine.

So where is she?

-Oh um, stephanie, she
just took a new waverunner

For a test run.

Oh, no. There she is!

-Oh, okay!

I'm gonna go see her.

-See ya!
-See ya, bye!

[Grunting]

[Tense music]

[Shouting]

[Panting]

-I got you. I got you.

Sit down here.

-Oh god.

-Sit down.
Take a deep breath, okay?

-Oh!

[Panting]

Oh.

Oh stephanie, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry about
the waverunner.

-Oh!

Not half as sorry as
mitch is gonna be.

He just picked it up.

-Oh!

He's gonna hate me!
Is he gonna hate me?
-No! No no.

It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter, okay?

Caroline,

What are you doin' here?

-I'm gettin' married.

[Laughing]

-You're getting married?

-Yes! [Laughing]

-Oh!

[Laughing]

[Ominous music]

-So, debra, was it worth it?

The risks you took,

Was it worth all this?

-It's not over yet.

-Tell me something.

Is he more important
than your son?

-Leave my son out of this.

-Seth, that's his name.

Your little boy's
name is seth, right?

-I said leave my
son out of this.

-I wouldn't risk
not seeing my son again
for anyone.

-Well you're doing
just that by talking.

Shut up.

-But I would risk
my life in order--

-I said, shut up!

-Thank you, doctor.

Caroline!

-Stephanie!

[Crying]

The coast guard said that
if they hadn't found him

When they did,

Frank could be dead.

-What did the doctor say?

-He's got a really, really
bad case of the bends.

Stephanie, they don't know if
decompression can save him.

I love him so much!

[Sobbing]

-He's gonna pull through.

I know it. He's gonna make it.
Don't worry.

-Oh, I begged him
not to go. I did.

-Caroline,

What was he doing out there

Diving by himself?

-I don't know.

Stephanie, he was
always so careful.

I mean, frank is the
best diver I know.

I don't...

I don't know how
this could of happened.

-Well the important thing is,

Is that he gets better.

Then he can tell us.

-Okay?
-Okay.

Now, look, let me
get you out of here

So you can get some--
-oh no!

I-- no. I mean,
I can't leave him.

I mean, I can't leave
him alone like this.

Okay, could you uh--

Could you just go
to frank's house?

Frank has a house
on topanga beach,

And just uh...

You know, get me some stuff,

My nightgown and
things from my suitcase.

Because they told me
they'd bring me a bed

So I could stay.

-Of course.
-Okay.

-I love you.

-I love you.

-I love you.

[Sniffling]

[Ominous music]

[Tense music]

-Look, why don't you
just let me go, huh?

Look, I'll jump overboard.

I'll swim.

Maybe I'll make
it, maybe I won't.

But that takes all the
pressure off of you.

-The only pressure on me

Is you thinking you can do
anything about this situation

And you can't.

So just shut your mouth.

Or your son will be
an orphan tonight.

[Groaning]

Hey, babe, try--
don't try moving,

Just stay where
you are, all right?

[Groaning]

Hang on, baby.

Don't!

I'll k*ll you. I swear it.

Now back up.

Back up!

Now!

Don't think I won't
still k*ll you.

Now sit down.

Sit down!

-Man: all right, lieutenant,
we're gonna dust for prints
on the windshield.

-All right.

-Nobody I talked
to saw anything.

-Same here.

-Well, the harbor master
says the only

Vessel that left this
area in the last few hours

Was a trawler named retriever.

I put in a call to
the coast guard,

See if their
chopper can spot it.

-It's getting late.

-Yeah, well let's
expand our search here.

-Look, please think, caroline.

He found papers
inside a metal tube

That was hidden in a
planter on the deck.

What are they?

-I don't know.

-Well, what was
frank working on?

-Stephanie, I don't know!

-Someone broke
into his apartment!

That same someone might've
tried to k*ll him.

-Frank has the bends.

How could somebody
try and k*ll him?

-They could have.

It's just a matter of
forcing him to the surface

Before his air bubbles.

The faster, the deadlier.

[Sighing]

Listen, caroline.

How long have you and
frank known each other?

-Five weeks.

-And you feel
ready to marry him?

You don't know
anything about him!

-I know everything
about this guy.

I know that I love him.

And I know that frank
doesn't care about money.

Stephanie, he cares
about saving this planet.

Just one of his reports

Could shut down billion
dollar corporate polluters.

-One of his reports.

-Yes!

-Those are pretty
valuable reports,

Don't you think?

Look, caroline.

What environmental hazard
was frank investigating?

-I don't know.
He didn't tell me.

I mean, we didn't
talk about his work.

All we talked about was us.

And our future.

His partner,

I-- I couldn't get
in touch with him,

But maybe you can. Um...

He's staying at the
ritz-carlton in the marina.

He'll know everything.

-What's his name?

-Jordan.

Jordan stewart.

-Okay.

-Mr. Stewart swims
laps every afternoon.

-How long has he been in?

-Uh, he just started.

-Thank you.

[Tense music]

[Sighing]

-You're one hell of a swimmer.

-So are you.

-Jordan stewart.

-I know that.

I came here to see you.

-He must've been
diving for pleasure

Or doing some
research on his own,

Because we'd finished the
project we were working on.

-What project was that?

-We busted a chemical company

That was accused of
disposing toxic waste

In the ocean a few years ago.

We were able to prove

That they did dump illegally,

So they got a pretty stiff fine.

-Well frank told caroline
that he was diving

For core samples.

-Yeah, well that's frank.

He's always out there searching,

Testing on his own.

He's on a personal crusade
to save the world's oceans.

Must be all that time he
spent with greenpeace.

-How did you two meet?

-[Sighing] outside the
nuclear power plant.

I was trying to
get a court order

To block a shipment of
spent plutonium rods,

And frank, on the other hand,

He chained himself to
the railroad tracks

And he was able to
delay things long enough

For my court order
to come through

And stop that shipment.

And I was able to
convince him right then

That with his
environmental fervor

And my legal expertise,

If we worked together
within the system,

We could do an awful lot more

To help clean up
this planet of ours

Than either one of us
could individually.

-Jordan, what do you
think the odds are

Of frank getting the
bends by accident?

-[Sighing] well,
the guy's reckless.

He takes chances.

Chained himself to
the railroad tracks.

I was always having to
tell him to be careful.

Has he regained
consciousness at all?

Been able to say anything
about what happened to him?

-No.

-Where is he? What facility?

-Pacifica institute.


The marine research center.

-I know a specialist,

A doctor of hyperbaric medicine.

I'll get him to come by.

-Thank you.

-Hey, no problem, and listen.

Frank's tough.

He'll pull through.

Don't you worry.

Okay?
-Okay.

Nice to meet you.

-You're probably thinking,

How could this guy k*ll me?

I saved his life.

Ah, but it's nothin'
personal, though, was it?

-Does it matter?

[Chuckling]

-Nope!

-Stop talking. Come on, eat.

Eat.

-Tell the captain
to get underway.

Tell him to head toward
the mexican border.

Now!

-What did dr. Shapiro say?

-Just that he's
in mid-treatment.

I mean, he is re-compressed.

And I guess all we
can do now is wait.

-Why don't you go
lay down and rest?

-No.

-Listen, I will call
you if anything changes.

Come on.

I brought a bed in for you.

You'll just be in the next room.

-I love you.

-I love you, too.

Go on.

-Okay.

[Sighing]

[Tense music]

-Jordan, what are you doing?

-Oh!

Hi, I didn't know you were here.

-What are you doing?

-Oh, I'm sorry, stephanie,
this is dr. Huntington,

The specialist I told you about?

He's preparing the chamber,
so he can open it

And examine frank.

-No.

-He's re-compressed.

-It doesn't matter.

What happened to frank
might've been an accident,

But it also might've
been deliberate.

Until we know exactly
what happened,

I don't think anybody but
his personal physician

Should open the chamber.

-I appreciate your
concern, really I do,

But I've known frank an awful
lot longer than you have,

And I'm gonna do
everything I know how

To make sure he gets the
best physician available.

Doc.

-You touch those controls,
and I'll call security.

-Stephanie,

You're acting like
you don't trust me.

-Why should i?

I don't even know you.

I don't even know if what
you told me this afternoon

Was the truth or a lie.

But what I do know
is that my sister

Is in love with that man,

And I'll do whatever I
can to protect them both.

Look, if an apology is
in order, I'll apologize

To both of you,

But for now, you're
welcome to stay

And send your positive
vibes to frank, or leave.

-What do you think?

-Without a physical
examination,

It's difficult to say.

But if he doesn't regain
consciousness by morning,

It's doubtful he ever will.

-Well, we'll have to send
him our positive vibes

And hope for the best.

Otherwise we may never know
what happened to frank.

Doc.

Goodnight, stephanie.

-Are you sure
that's what he said?

-Drake's trench.

I remembered it in my dream,

Because he said that if
it wasn't too polluted,

He was gonna bring me
back some giant clams.

-Caroline, listen.

I need to use frank's dive boat.

-Why?

Oh, no. Stephanie,
please don't go there!
-No. I will be fine.

I know where it is.

Just don't let anybody except
for dr. Shapiro near frank.

Especially not jordan stewart.

-Jordan? Why not jordan?

-Just do what I tell you, okay?

-Okay.

Oh my god!

Frank!

Oh, thank god, frank!

Oh!

-The coast guard chopper
spotted it ten miles off of
port segundo.

All the agencies
are converging. Go!

-He's bleeding again!

-Unlock these.

-No!

-You let me help you,
or you'll bleed to death.

-I don't trust you.

I don't trust anybody!

-Debra: brady--

-Shut up!

He'll bleed to death before me.

-Ah!
-Brady, no!

No!

-Captain: miss harris,
there's boats comin'!

Police and lifeguard.

They're heading this way fast!

-Garner: there it is!

[Grunting]

[Grunting]

[Grunting]

[Shouting]

[Upbeat music]

-Look!

[Grunting]

[Groaning]

-All right, hold it!
Don't move!

-Mitch, are you all right?

-Yeah, I'm fine!

We gotta get him to
a hospital, though!

-Headquarters just
got a panicked call

From stephanie's sister.

She said someone tried
to k*ll her boyfriend

In drake's trench yesterday.

Stephanie's on her way there.

-Drake's trench?

That's not far.

Tell 'em we're on our way.

-Man: uh, no one's here.
They must be underwater.

[Ominous music]

-Garner: there's the
boat stephanie borrowed.

Mitch!

-Yeah?

-Where's this guy off
to in such a hurry?

-Jumpers off.

Catch him and find out.

-Don't take too long.

[Exciting music]

-This is the l.a.
County lifeguard.

Turn off your
engines immediately!

I repeat, turn off your engines!

-Let me handle this.

-Unless you want to
come to a dead stop,

Turn off your engines now!

-I'll be right back, mitch!

-What now?

-I've gotta go get
what I came here for.

[Exciting music]

-I'm really happy
that frank's all right.

-He still can not believe that
jordan tried to k*ll him,

Or that you went down
for another core sample.

-Now jordan won't be
able to switch them

And falsify the report.

-I don't understand
why the chemical company

Would try and bribe jordan,

If they still had to
pay the fines anyway.

-Well, those fines were
for dumping illegally.

And the falsified report
said it wasn't toxic,

So the fines were a lot less,

And an environmental cleanup

That was really expensive
wasn't required.

But now they're gonna have
to pay for it with prison.

-See?

Wouldn't your life
be boring without me?

-No.

[Laughing]

-No?

-Dad!

Dad!

-Mitch: hobester!

-I won!

-You're kidding!
-I won the a&w, the trophy.

Everything was awesome!

-All right!

Fantastic, man!

-So uh,

What'd you do this weekend?

Do anything exciting?

-Nah.

Just another typical
weekend here at baywatch.

-Hobie cool!
