-Mitch: last time
on baywatch.

-What's the matter?
Aren't you comin' with us?

-I can't dive today.

This cold's got
me all stuffed up.

It wouldn't be safe.

[Gurgling]

[Muffled screaming]

Oh my god! [Crying]

I can't hear anything!

Oh my god!

-Mitch: reverse pressure,
man, she couldn't equalize.

She wound up blowing
out her ear drums.

-Cody: it's gonna
be all right, darlin'.

-I can't hear you!
I can't hear you!

No, it's not your
fault, I wanted to dive.

It was my decision.

-[People chattering]

-Woman: don't touch.

-[Siren wails]

-Stand back, folks,
let us through.

Let us through please.

Don't touch it,
don't touch it.

Thank you.

-April: it's a
dead dolphin.

What happened to it? Do
you think a shark got it?

-I don't see
any teeth marks.

-Maybe it just
got sick and d*ed.

-Do me a favor,
get the marine

Laboratory on
the phone.

Have 'em come down
here and check it out.

-April: excuse me.

-[Mitch sighs]

-[Suspenseful music]

-[Engines idling]

-You're late.
Where's the stuff?

-Where's the money?

-Right here.
Let me see it.

-Garner: hyah! Hyah!

-[Horse grunts]

-Dealer: a cop!
Let's go!

-[Engines rev]

-Dealer: go!
Go! Go! Go!

-Mitch: hey!

-Hey!

I dropped the dolphin
off at the marine lab.

They should know
somethin' tomorrow.

-Great.

-April: look
at these guys.

-Garner: mitch!

-Garner?

-Who's he?

-Mitch: a friend.
Follow that horse!

Go! Go! Go!

-[Engines revving]
-[siren wailing]

-What?

-Drug dealers!

-Which one
do you want?

-The one on the right!

-All right! April,
take the one on the left!

-[Siren wailing]

-Closer, april, closer!

-[Both grunt]

-Ah!

-[Panting]

-Dealer: ugh! Ugh!

-[Brakes squeak]

-Mitch, are you ok?

-Get on the radio
and call the lapd.

-April on radio: lapd, this
is baywatch lifeguard unit.

We have two
suspects in custody.

We need backup a-s-a-p.

-I thought you
hated the sand.

-I do, but earl,
he loves it.

-[All laughing]

-Garner: whoo! [Laughing]

-Mitch: just
like old times huh?

So what brings you to
my part of the sand?

-I'm working with mpu.

-Mitch: mpu?
-Garner: yep.

Monitored police unit.

There's a drug trafficking
flare-up on the beach,

We're tryin' to
find the supplier.

-I thought that
was the nsa.

-That's the dea.

-Oh, the dea. Is
that part of the cia?

-No, fyi that's the A*F.

-[Laughs] wait,
stop this a-s-a-p!

-Garner: a-ok
-mitch: a-ok.

Hey, I'll buy
you a cold drink.

-That'll work.

-Step into my
office, partner.
-Thank you, sir.

-Great to see you
man, great to see you.

-Garner: yeah, you too.

-Hey, cindy, how about
a couple on ice, huh?

Thanks.

-Garner: yeah, good work.

Earl read my
mind, good work.

Whoo.

-Earl?

-You got a problem with that?

-Yeah, I do.

I mean hi-ho, silver, away!

Trigger, secretariat, good
respectable horse names,

But earl?

-Mr. Ed.

-Hey, buddy, mr.
Ed could talk, ok?

He's pretty quiet.

-Yeah, well he's thinkin'.

Besides, he's not my horse.

-A loner?

-We're workin' undercover.

-Oh, an alias.

-Listen, if I had
to say giddy-up earl

To lane court, to ropeford
whatever his name is,

I'd never catch
anybody. Sheesh.

[Sighs]

Boy, disgusting.

Listen mitch, I
really could use

Your help on
my drug situation.

-No problem, you got it.

-You know any suspicious
looking activity

Or anything out
of the ordinary.

-Anything out of the
ordinary, don't worry...

I'll call earl.

-Yeah.
-[Boot thuds]

-[Birds chirping]

-Don't worry, ok?

-[Door closes]
-[lani breathes heavily]

-Lani's condition
is called a

Barotraumatic tympanic
membrane perforation.

It's just big words
for ruptured ear drums.

-How bad's
the damage?

-I don't know yet.

I'm going to do
pure tone threshold

Testing to get
an audiogram.

-And what's
that tell you?

-Well it's a
frequency range test.

I'm going to test her from
500 hertz to 8,000 hertz.

-[Nails tapping]

Now, if lani is getting
some of her hearing back,

We'll be able to pinpoint
the range of restoration.

-Ok.

-Always works
better with these on.

-[Cody chuckles]

-All right, here we go.

-[Continuous beep]

-We're at 500
hertz right now.

-[Beep pitch heightens]
-ok, 2,000.

-Come on.

-[Slow ominous music]

-[Beep pitch heightens]
-3,000.

-[Frequency crackles]

-[Knob clicks]

-[Exhales deeply]

-[Headphones thud]

-I couldn't hear it! I
couldn't hear a thing!

How much time?

Doctor, can't you tell me?

Am I ever gonna be
able to hear again?

You have to tell me
somethin', doctor.

-Cody: shh.

-[Marker swiping]

-Shh.

It's all right.

-[Ominous music]

-[Engine turns over]

-[Back-up beeping]

-Lani!

-Lani: ahh!

-[Tires screech]

-[Both panting]

Lani, you have to be careful
-when you don't have--

-[Sound cuts off]

-[Whimpers]

-[Baby crying]

-Garner: how's neely doin'?

-She's doin' great.

I think takin' care
of ashley keeps her

On the straight and narrow.

-And you a, babysitting.

-Mitch: yeah. Once in a
while, I take ashley jogging.

And that baby is
in awesome shape,

Never, ever breaks a sweet.

-[Laughs] say by the way,
the marine lab reported back.

That dolphin you
found was poisoned.

-Poisoned?

-Yeah.

-Who would do
somethin' like that?

-Drug smugglers.

They found nk-19 in
the dolphin's system.

-What's that?

-Natural k*ller
19. Cyanide based.

It's phosphorescent, turns
the water a lime green color.

Drug smugglers use
it to mark the ocean

For nighttime
airplane drops.

-You're tellin' me a dolphin
swam through that stuff

And d*ed?

-Yeah.

-What would happen if a
kid swam through that stuff?

-We're dealin' with some very,
very bad boys here, mitch.

-[Baby coos]

-[People talking]
-[ocean rippling]

-[Rock music from
nearby radio]

-They say your name is neely.

-It is. What's yours?

-Mack donovan.

-Why don't you just
ask me instead of beg?

-Would you believe I'm shy?

-Not in a million years.

-Would you believe
I'm hitting on you?

-In a heartbeat.

-[Mack laughs]

You're a member
here at the club,

I've seen you around.

-Really?

I'm happy you noticed.

Listen, neely, I'm having
a party on my boat.

I would like you to
come as my guest.

-I don't know if that'd
be such a great idea.

I mean, me an employee
and you a member.

-[Laughs] it's fine. I
checked with your boss.

-Thorough, no
strings left untied.

-Never.

-Any strings attached?

-None. You can bring
a friend if you want.

5 O'clock at marina z-13.

Ciao.

-Ciao. Bye.

-[Tv at low volume]

-[Tv volume increases]

-Man on tv: surrender
justice without fear.

[Heartbeat pounding]

[Heartbeat pounding]

[Heartbeat pounding]

-Come aboard.

-Ok.

Wow.

-[Chuckles] gentlemen,
please forgive me,

I'm going to steal
neely for a second.

Lucas? Lucas?

Please see that the
gentlemen get a drink.

I've got some
business associates

I want to make
green with envy.

-Mitch: oh.
-Nelly: bye.

-What can I get
you, gentlemen?

-Mitch: a beer please.

-Soda's fine.

-Nice boat, huh?

If I'm a good boy,
will you get me

One of these for christmas?

-This guy donovan, do
you know what he does?

-Makes a lot of money.

-Yeah, sellin' dope.

-You sure about that?

-Garner: yeah, we've
had him under surveillance

For about three months.

We want to catch him in
the act so we can bust him.

What is neely doin'
with this guy?

-I don't know,
she said she just

Met him at the
sand and sea club.

-Neely, the guy
is dangerous.

He's sellin' dr*gs up
and down the beach.

-Ok, I didn't know that.

-He might even take
his yacht and set up

A floating
drugstore offshore.

-One stop shopping for
a drive-thru druggie.

-Mitch, I just met him.

-What do you know about him?

-Not much. Nothing really.

He said he was an importer.

-Yeah, he imports
dr*gs from mexico.

-I said I didn't know that.

I mean, he seemed like
a nice enough guy.

Mitch, don't worry.

-I can't help it.

-I'm a big girl now, I
know what I'm doin', ok?

Mitch? You don't
think that I'm...

-Hey, neely, it's
easy to fall off.

-No, not when you
have what I have.

I quit! I quit because I
wanted to be a good mom.

Because somebody
I cared about

Showed me that they
cared about me.

I guess you stopped
believing in me.

Well, I didn't.

-Neely! Neely!

-Did I miss something?

-What?

-[Chuckles] oh man, I think
you missed it more than I did.

-[Crickets chirping]

-Mitch's voice: lani?

Lani?

-Mitch?

-[Slow suspenseful music]

-[Sighs]

-[Spoon clicking]

-[Sound cuts off]

-[Spoon clicking]

-April's voice: hey
lani, come on, let's go.

Over here lani, come on.

-April?

Where are you?

-Mitch's voice: where is she?

Where are you?

-April's voice: it's
time to go, you're late.

-Mitch's voice:
over here lani.

-April's voice: are
you listening to me?

-Mitch's voice: come on,
time to go. You're late.

-April: lani.
-Mitch: are you listening?

-April's voice:
lani, do you hear us?
-Mitch's voice: lani?

-April's voice: can
you hear the music, lani?

-Mitch's voice:
can't you hear us?

-April's voice:
lani, do you hear us?

-Mitch's voice:
can't you hear us?

-April's voice:
lani do you hear us?

-No! I can't hear it!

[Whimpers]

-Cody: what's
up? What's wrong?

What's wrong?

-Oh my god. [Crying]

-Shh.

It's ok.

-Cody, I'm a dancer.

And I can't even
hear the music.

-Cody: shh.

It's ok.

-What am I gonna do?

-It's ok.

-I'm so scared.

-Shh.

-[Suspenseful music]

-Man: hurry up with the line.

-Mitch: look at that.

-Garner: electric jello.

-Mitch: that the stuff?

-Garner: nk-19. A sample
will tell us for sure.

-Mitch: be right back.

I got it.

-Hey! What are you
doin' down there?

-[Boat engine revs]

-Garner: forensics said
it's definitely nk-19.

Donovan's boat has been
sitting in the stuff.

One guess why.

-So bust the guy.

-For what? k*lling a dolphin?

Having a boat that
glows in the dark?

Come on, we gotta catch
the guy in the act.

-Follow him.

-Kind of hard to hide in the
open ocean, don't you think?

Come on, he'll see us
and call off the deal.

-Well, what do
you wanna do then?

-[Sighs] I wanna stash a
transmitter on board his boat,


Follow him until
the deal goes down.

-Good luck.

-You're not gonna
do it mitch.

-Mitch: nope.

-I'm not asking, I'm telling.

You're not gonna do it.

-Oh I get it,
reverse psychology.

You say you don't want me to
do it and I say I wanna do it.

-Wrong.

-Right.

I'm lost, your serve.

-I'm not gonna do it and
you're not gonna do it.

Neely is.

-No way.

-Look, donovan's hot for her.

-I said no way.

-He likes having
her around, ok?

She could stash a
transmitter under

His bed, he'd never know it.

-Garner, it's not gonna
happen. It's too risky.

-But she's the
only one who can

Stash that transmitter
and get away with it.

-I said no!

-Yeah, well neely said yes.

-You already asked her?

[Mitch sighs]

-Mitch!

-Girl: mommy! Mommy!

Where are you?

Mommy! Where are you?

Mommy?
-Mother: lindsey?

-Girl: mommy!

-It's ok honey.
It's ok sweetheart.

Where's your mommy?

-I don't know
where she is.

-Oh, sweetie, we're
gonna find her.

You're gonna be ok.

-Mother: lindsey!

[Panting]

-Lani: here's
your mommy now.

-Girl: mommy!

-Yeah, she's fine.

-Mother: oh baby. [Kissing]

-[Cork pops]

-[Slow romantic music]

-No, I uh, sorry.
I don't drink.

-Would you like a club
soda or something else?

-Club soda would be great.

-Lucas!

Could you bring miss
capshaw a club soda please?

-Sure. Mendoza called.

-Excuse me, I'll
be right back.

-Ok, take your time.

-[Purse unzips]

-When's mendoza
making the drop?

-About an hour.

-That's too bad.

I have to ask the
lady to leave then.

-What's she even doing here?

Tonight of all nights.

-She's my guest. That's
none of your business.

-[Transmitter beeps on]

-She's the one who brought
that nosy scuba diver

And his buddy to your
party the other day.

-Are you sure?

-Oh, I'm positive.

I got a good look at him.

They were checking out
the boat very carefully.

-[Purse zips]

-[Sighs]

-We have a change
of plans then.

-Uh, you know, I need
to get to work real early

So I'm gonna leave.

-I'm sorry, but you can't.

Come with me,
'til we cast off.

-[Purse unzips]
-[purse contents clatter]

-Mendoza is late.

It's gonna be light soon.

Very soon, your last sunrise.

-I said no, my friend.

The price is not negotiable.

-[Phone beeps]

Yes?

-Your guest left us
a little party favor.

-Mitch: I don't like
this. It's taking too long.

We gotta go.

-Garner: wait a minute.
They're not moving.

They're gonna make
the pickup any minute.
