Previously on North Shore. About that argument we had. You've got bigger

problems with that.

Mr. Booth, Honolulu PD.

You're under arrest for the murder of Margaret Booth. I won't forgive you,

Nicole. Nicole got Mary at Guinea to talk.

Alexandra, I need your help. Why would I help you? What is it that you want?

Daddy had a change of heart. Put me in charge. We have an equal stake in the

grand white man. Not true. Not true. Tatsa was very helpful in digging up an

investor that was willing to sell it. Which means you're fired.

What we had... Hold on. Are you breaking up with me? I'm really sorry.

I slept with another person to hold on to you.

Think how sorry I feel.

What are you doing? You know, you're just like every other guy. Okay, but

is a random thing. I mean, we've done it before. Because Charlie was there.

Can't you get it through a thick skull, Gabriel? I am not into guys.

It's been 19 minutes and I haven't brought up the fact that you're going on

solo trip with some rich woman.

Chris? I've met some beautiful rich women. I'm Lindsay Kellogg. I'm ready

adventure. What's wrong?

It's Chris. He's out with a client.

And I've been calling and he hasn't called back.

I couldn't help it.

I went through his things.

It's the receipt.

Two airplane tickets to Fiji.

You guys, what if he's not lost?

What if he went off with that woman?

Caught a Q2, bring it home.

Why are you bringing him home?

Because he did a grid of the whole range and found nothing. That's why they want

to hike you.

And why isn't his car parked at any of the trailheads?

Ms. Bevins, I have someone you should meet.

M .J. Bevins, this is Clayton Kellogg.

How do you do?

Your boyfriend was guiding his wife, Lindsay.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Oh, please, it's not your fault.

Tell Ms. Bevins what you told me.

Lindsay isn't even supposed to be in Hawaii.

She lied to me. She said she'd be at her sister's. What are you saying?

I'm saying that our marriage is going through a rough patch, and I think she

might be here seeing someone else.

Either that or she just hates Chicago in the fall.

Chicago?

Where? Lincoln Park.

Well, my boyfriend was engaged to a girl from Lincoln Park, but her name was

Melinda.

That's my wife's name.

Lindsay is her middle name.

Okay, let's get two cars out to check the airport lots.

These two might not even be in the jungle.

Ow!

You okay?

No.

Good.

Don't get pissy with me. You're the one who drove off the road.

because you stuck your tongue in my ear and your hand down my pants.

You never used to drive off the road when I did that.

One of the reasons I came out to Hawaii was because I didn't like you, and I

swear I'm tempted to leave you out of here.

And yet here we are.

Yeah, because you booked a tour under a false name.

It's my middle name.

And when you saw me, you could have canceled, but you didn't.

Instead, you kept your mouth shut in front of your girlfriend.

So I'm guessing you wanted to see me too.

All I want is out of here.

We need to get up on that ridge if we want those choppers to see us.

Thank you very much. Like I said, if you hear anything, please call myself.

Dr. Kellogg.

Hi, I'm Alexandra Hudson, owner of the Grand Waimea.

Let me assure you that we are doing everything in our power to find your

We're going to comp you a suite. Tessa will arrange everything.

That's very generous. Thank you.

Please, have a seat. This will just take a minute.

Nicole. I'm so glad you're here.

Really? Yes, there's a dead carp in the fountain. Fish it out, will you?

Unless you're in the mood for sushi, I'd get someone else.

You seem to have forgotten.

I'm your new boss now.

And you need to do something about the attitude.

How could this happen?

I mean, how could Alexander take over the Grand Waimea?

Simple.

She sold her soul to Walter Booth.

There's got to be some sort of legal recourse, you know, unlawful

something. She has the law on her side.

It's called majority ownership.

You're just going to roll over?

Have you ever known me to roll over for anyone?

What are you going to do?

I have some ideas.

Well, I'm going with you.

Me too.

If you go, we go. She knows jack about hotels. The place will collapse in a

month. No.

I don't want it collapsing in a month. I still own 48%. I need you to stay, both

of you, and protect my interest until I can get it all back.

I told you I want Nicole out of the picture.

Not yet.

It was part of the deal.

And I told you to be patient.

Look, if I had just fired Nicole, Jason would have walked with her. I would lose

key management, and you would lose your shot at him. You have to be smart about

this.

Do you have a plan?

Debra, I can't make the guy love you, but I can help you break the mold.

I found my own man, I'll make it on my own in paradise.

I found my own man, I'll make it on my own in paradise. Wish you were near now.

I wish you were here tonight.

I wish you were here tonight.

I think I got a shot in my first heat.

Want to be my board caddy?

No.

You just really went to Mexico?

Yeah, whatever.

I'm over it. Well, I'm not over it. She took all my money with her.

What? Cleaned me out. My money, my camera, even my good makeup.

Left me a note.

Dude, had to jump on this opportunity. I'll pay you back. Rock on. Man, the

girl's a train wreck.

What are you gonna do?

What can I do?

Guess I could try calling my parents for a plane ticket home.

That should be fun.

Robert and Estelle, they're big fans of my lifestyle choice.

Erica, you can't leave.

You came out here to avoid the judgment of your parents.

At least that's what you told me.

I've got $41 .06, and I'm living in a van.

Tour season's over, and no one's hiring.

I've got to get back to reality.

In my case, that's Newport Beach, California.

What if I could get you a job?

Alexandra? In here.

You wanted to see me?

Um, maybe I should come back.

No, stay.

This is time sensitive.

Okay. I want to hold a party in your club.

Nothing big.

75 people, 100 tops.

When?

Tomorrow night.

What's the rush?

I want to get ahead of the story. Beverly Hills bitch displaces popular

owner. Catchy.

Thanks. Well, you're right. Vincent is very popular around here. With

I know.

That's why it's important that I make a good first impression with all the local

business people, politicians, community leaders.

Who better to help me with that than someone low?

Well, it's a tough thing to pull together in 24 hours.

Look, trust me.

I'm connected to every media outlet on the West Coast.

I can get your club a rep on the mainland.

Well, I get to work on the party.

Thanks.

Now get out of here before I get us both in trouble.

I had to come to Hawaii.

If you wouldn't take my calls, you wouldn't return my emails.

What was I supposed to do? I don't know.

Take the hint?

I needed to talk to you. I felt bad about the way... What about screwing me

over?

You're the one who walked out on me. Yeah, after you got whacked to blow and

slept with my best friend.

That was before I got sober.

I've made amends, Chris.

41 emails is not making amends, okay?

It's stalking.

Chris, please.

How are you doing this? You're married.

I know. That's what I want to talk to you about.

And this thing is broken!

in the brochure.

You okay?

Yeah, you?

Yeah.

What is it? My knee.

Take off your pants.

I need to see the knee.

I ran track, remember?

I've had every knee injury known to man.

Hey, what are you doing?

Seems like a good day to try scotch.

Why aren't you helping with the search?

Because I know what they're going to find, and I don't want to be there when

they find it.

You don't know. that.

Chris ran off with his ex, Jason, so please spare me the keep the faith

Maybe it makes you feel better, but it just makes me feel worse.

Hey, Teddy, she's cut off.

You always hear people say that waiting and not knowing is the hardest part.

They're wrong.

Waiting and knowing is far worse.

How long were you guys married?

A year.

We barely made it for four months.

Oh, well.

Can't you bless him?

Did you have any idea?

No. No, I mean, not until I started checking the long -distance phone bills

emails.

Do you have those here?

I'd like to see them. Excuse me. Here.

Dr. Clay.

Yes, I am.

I was wondering if I could ask you. I'm having these problems. Perhaps later.

I'm sort of in the middle of something right now.

Dr. Clay?

Dr. Clay, couples counselor.

I'm, uh... I have my own radio talk show.

Mold a happier marriage with Dr. Clay.

What a joke.

That's why you look so familiar.

I've seen your face on the buses.

Yeah, well, right now I feel like standing in front of one.

Come on.

I'll show you those emails.

Put the desk by the window.

How can a man work in Hawaii and never take advantage of the natural way?

I guess Vincent focused more on five -star service for his guests than he did

feng shui -ing his office.

You know, this whole place needs a fresh look.

This whole place was the most popular hotel in Oahu for the past decade.

See, even words like past and decade just make it seem so old.

I want the grand white man to lose youth and sense.

I mean, Android is what sells.

I thought you didn't know anything about the hotel business.

I'm a successful businesswoman.

One of the keys to my success is knowing when to delegate, which is why I'm

putting you in charge of the redesign project.

Look, Jason, I know that we got off to a rocky start.

But I do appreciate your talent.

I intend to give you a free hand in doing what you know how to do best.

Did Vincent do that for you?

Why don't we start with the waitress's uniforms for the beach bar?

Tali had some design samples set up at the meditation center. Go take a look.

See what turns you on.

Oh, sorry.

I'm back.

That's okay.

Hey.

Tessa?

What are you doing down here?

Alexandra asked me to model the new waitress uniforms.

Isn't that a little outside your job description?

I guess we all have to do our part to keep the new boss happy.

Can you tie this for me?

Hi, Nicole.

I could really use your opinion on the new waitress uniforms.

Right now?

You're free. Sally has them all set up in the meditation center.

Thanks.

Well?

What do you think?

Um... I think that... I think it's, um... Hot?

A little too hot, you know?

For a waitress uniform?

I don't know.

Alexandra's got some pretty firm ideas about what she wants.

Well, what I'm thinking about is a conservative couple from the Midwest

with their children.

You're looking at me in this gap and thinking about some guy with his wife

kids?

There's something seriously twisted about you, Jason.

Okay, let's try something else.

Ah, Tiff.

What? It's not like you haven't seen it all before, Tor.

Hello?

Tally?

What the hell is going on here?

Nicole! Just don't. Look, it's not what you think. She was trying on the new

waitress uniform.

Yeah, well, those should sell a lot of drinks.

That's what took me by surprise.

You know how she is.

No, Jason, I don't. Why don't you tell me how she is? You're the one who's had

her. That's ancient history.

I don't really consider 20 seconds ago ancient.

I didn't do anything.

Tell me something, Jason.

If I hadn't walked in on you, would you have walked out on her?

Randall, you still short -handed?

No. Why is the service here so slow?

It's only slow for special customers.

What do you want, Gabriel?

There's going to be a lot of people here for the surf contest. I'm thinking you

should hire Erica as a waiter.

You ever wait tables before?

No.

Gretel, come on, man. Do me a solid.

When you look at her, bro, she's hot.

That's not like anybody comes here for the food.

Okay, $7 .50 an hour. We split the tip.

Start tomorrow?

Yeah.

Thanks, Gabriel.

No problem.

Is it sexual harassment if a colleague gets naked in front of you in the middle

of a work day?

Look, bro, she told me to come in.

I didn't know she was going to be in a bubble bath.

What are you talking about?

What are you talking about?

Tessa.

She pulled a Girls Gone Wild thing in front of me in the middle of the

meditation center. And Cole walked in on us.

Your turn. Who is the babe in the bubble?

Good afternoon, gentlemen.

How's my party coming along?

The booze will be flowing.

The food's going to be dope. But the turnaround time on the centerpiece is

to be a little tight.

Something tells me if anybody can pull it off, it's you, Frankie.

So, Jason.

How did you make out with those waitress uniforms?

Uh, hit a little wrinkle.

I'm sure you will iron it out.

You sent me out, didn't you?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

I have confidence in you boys. Don't let me down.

Just tell me that you did not let her wash behind your ears.

She's too smart to sleep without.

Careful.

If you help, this might work.

That help?

You still smoke?

One cigarette a day.

So what's the plan, nature boy?

If we see a chopper, throw these on the fire. They're full of oil and they flare

up big time.

The chopper's got to see that.

Got it.

Where are you going?

My wish was that I'd come fall back in love with me.

Clearly that's not going to happen, so I'll make myself useful.

I'll find some fireworks.

Hey, Melinda.

You don't have to apologize.

I'll be back soon.

I'm afraid the airline still can't locate your clubs.

I have a 7 a .m. tea time tomorrow. No problem. We're going to loan you a set

right now. Come with me. I'm going to have Rick open up the pro shop.

Nicole, I need you to stuff and seal these invitations for Alexander's party.

And since it's tomorrow night, I'll need you to hand deliver them.

I'm assisting Mr.

Trammell right now.

You'll have to stuff them yourself.

I'm sorry. Right this way, Mr. Trammell.

I'm sorry. Would you excuse us for a moment, please?

Alexandra, Alex's party is important, Nicole.

You're not being a team player. Take your hand off me.

Start licking.

Isn't that your department?

Your attitude's becoming a problem.

You have no idea. Let go.

Thank you.

I'm so sorry you had to see that.

Look, Nicole, I'm not above a good bitch slap myself when the situation

warrants, but you did it in front of Kat. She set me up.

And you should have been smart enough not to ride for the bait.

You think she's on your side, but you don't know her, Alexandra. She's a

And in this case, I'm afraid her bite is faith.

What's that supposed to mean?

I just took over.

I have to send a message. I can't tolerate one of my employees physically

attacking another in public.

Even if she's my sister.

What are you saying?

Nicole, I'm sorry to do this.

But you're fired.

You look laughing.

I thought we were.

We moved into that house right after our honeymoon.

That's the nursery.

I started getting moody. I thought we might be pregnant.

I'm sorry.

No, it's okay.

Of course, now I'm doing exactly what I tell my patients not to do.

Living in my pain.

What should you do?

Try to move on. Learn to trust again.

Healthy emotions come from forward motion.

Makes sense.

Anyway, I was wondering if you wanted to come with me tomorrow to the command

post. Why?

Because I'm a sucker who still clings to hope.

Have a good night.

Good night.

Hang in there.

Hey. Hey. Look, I'm... You know, MJ, if they were telling you how to feel, I

should have asked you.

So, how you doing?

Ultimately, it's just another weird breakup in the MJ collection.

And you really think Chris left?

Two open -ended tickets to Fiji.

He disappears with his ex -girlfriend.

What would you think?

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Try to have a good night, okay?

Okay.

I wish I could have been there to see the splash.

I would have given you a raise.

Tessa's going to pay for selling me out to Alex.

I hope so.

In the meantime, I'm probably going to lose my boyfriend to that slut.

Any family I had is out of my life.

There's nothing here for me anymore.

Listen to me, Nicole.

As long as I'm around, you have family.

I am always going to be here for you.

And Jason loves you.

Don't let Tessa or Alexandra or anybody else come between you two.

I'll try.

What are you going to do?

I'm getting on a flight to Hong Kong tonight.

I'm going to talk to my financial people there about backing me for another run

at the hotel.

Some of Hawaii's best and up -and -coming surfers are here tuning up for

winter season.

Let's hope our competitors are ready because we have some solid surf.

Heat number three fits Tainoa Lockman, Chaz Hargraves, Pete Shotta, and

Gabriel McKay against each other.

And there's the start of the heat.

All four competitors are racing to get outside to try and catch that first

And here's our first set.

And there's local boy, Tola Lockman, showing his intimate knowledge of his

break. Nice duckback, Kainoa.

There's Chad Hargrave, and the wave slows it down.

Gabriel McKay making a late drop and getting around the corner to connect a

wave.

And there's Johnna, showing some new school style.

Boy, these guys are pros.

They're taking their lumps out there.

I know a lot of them take their seat on that wave.

Not sure how they're going to score that.

Gabriel McKay wants to get back in his seat. He needs to start putting together

some waves right now.

McKay takes off on a big rider.

Oh, beautiful.

He finds the tube.

That'll be a high -scoring wave.

He can't hit the top. Drops back down.

And he finds the hoop again.

And there's the wave of the day. And Gabriel McKay pulls in.

Where does this hit come from?

He can just keep it together for the rest of this season.

He's looking really good.

You gotta go in.

Right.

Don't save a tourist.

Serious, bro. Some kind of emergency.

What? I'm just telling you what the cop on the beach told me.

We've been searching for three days straight.

Frankly, I'm starting to worry about the safety of my people.

I'm sorry, but at this point, I'm grounding the helicopters.

There's not much you can do here.

I'd think about going home.

Go home?

I just got here.

Besides, there's nothing there for me now.

What about your work? Your job?

I'm a fraud, MJ. I can't keep my own marriage together.

How am I supposed to give anyone else marital advice? You'll be better at it

because you lived through this. I mean, just knowing you helps me.

How's that?

I've been blaming myself for driving Chris away.

But if something like this can happen to someone like you, it could happen to

anybody.

And I only lost a boyfriend. You're losing a marriage. No, don't do that,

Don't minimize your loss.

It's not healthy.

You see, even with everything you're going through, your instinct is to help

someone else.

You're a good guy.

It's very sweet, MJ. Thank you.

I haven't heard Chopper all day.

They probably canceled the search.

We're going to have to walk out of here.

Are you sure this is the right way?

Yes, I'm sure. Just because I got lost one time in Canada doesn't mean that...

Oh, I'm so...

women in that? Oh, me too.

Hey, I am still the general manager of this hotel. Check my contract.

You don't just get to fire people without consulting me first.

I assume we're talking about Nicole.

Yeah, you need to hire her back.

Do you think that maybe your judgment is just a little bit clouded by your

personal feelings? And what about your personal feelings? She's your sister.

I did not want to hire her.

It was a business decision. Well, if this were about business, then you need

get her back.

She's an asset to this hotel.

Is she?

Or is she just someone you like to have a quickie with during your coffee break?

This is not over.

Jason.

I'm sorry, but if you don't like it, you can leave with her. This place would

shut down in a week without me.

I admire your self -confidence.

But trust me, everyone is replaced.

Really?

Everyone?

See you at the party.

What's up?

There's an emergency. Yeah, there is. I need a waitress.

Mahalo, Benny.

Dude.

Yeah, the cops put me out of a contest for this.

Dude, I hired your friend. Okay, she shows up hungover. Starts to gag and

splits. I'm sorry.

Well, what do you want me to do?

Take these to them.

I remember when we went skinny dipping in Grant Park, and you couldn't find

clothes. Yeah, I remember you all home wearing a two -ring sports section.

God, that was fun.

Yeah, it was.

Why'd you do it, Mel?

What?

Sleep with Josh.

I guess I was stupid.

The partying got to my head.

I just... I felt like I was going to settle down.

Six months later, you were ready.

Rebound on the biggest mistake of my life.

I came back here to talk to you about getting back together.

The timing sucks.

Fairly.

So what?

So what?

I have a life here.

This isn't your life. And Rush is your life. The fools are your life.

We should have a little loft and walking distance to Wrigley. And that's your

life. I don't miss Wrigley.

I miss you.

No. No. Why?

I have a new girlfriend now, and I don't want to mess it up.

I'm sorry.

What about your husband?

The relationship doctor?

Please.

Relationship can work you in.

What do you mean?

Dr. Clay is a serial cheater.

You're kidding.

I wish I was.

I swear he works with couples just to find vulnerable women. And when he does,

it's your fault.

Okay.

Thanks.

Bye.

Well, that's it.

What? That was my credit card company.

They called about suspicious charges in Fiji.

MJ. Hey.

Come here.

I know. It's okay.

It's okay. We'll be okay. I know.

It's okay.

I knew it was coming, but... I know.

I know. It's all so... Final.

Yeah.

You know, sometimes... Endings...

Are just... beginnings in disguise.

Hi, can you excuse us for a moment?

Thank you.

What the hell is going on? Why doesn't anybody have a drink?

I don't know. I just got here myself.

I'm sorry. Our champagne delivery got held up.

Frankie, where's the waitstaff?

They went home sick.

All of them?

Yeah, something's going around.

Start pouring drinks now.

Sorry, I can't. I'm not feeling too well myself.

Something I caught from Jason.

The hardest part of rejection is...

Great party.

If you think that I'm going to be intimidated into hiring Nicole back

your little stunt, you're not as smart as I thought you were.

He's fired.

Escort him off the premise booth.

Sorry, ma 'am. I clocked out an hour ago.

Well, then clock back in.

Or I'll find a new head of security.

Yeah, good luck with that.

Sam's the president of the union.

I think he's leaving.

Sort of out of your gas, but...

They're going to have a hard time finding their cars in that right kind.

Yeah.

Couldn't find anybody to work the valet stand tonight.

Weird.

Weird.

Nicole, what are you doing here?

Just came by to pick up my last paycheck.

What's going on?

Well, Jason's showing Alexandra who's boss.

Let me make something very clear to you, Alexandra.

It might be related to Nicole, but the people who work here, Kai, Sam, Frankie,

Gabe, MJ, and me, we're a family.

And here in Hawaii, nothing is more important.

Aloha.

Wait.

If I agree to rehire her, can you get everybody back to work in the next five

minutes?

Yeah, I think that can be arranged, but I got one more condition.

Are you holding up?

Okay.

Thank you.

You?

We're going to need more water.

Hey, baby.

Oh, my God. Where are you?

At Kahana Valley.

Long story.

This hunter found us.

Are you with your ex -girlfriend?

Yeah. Yeah, I should have told you. I'm sorry.

But don't worry. Nothing happened.

Really?

Yeah. MJ, I love you way too much to do something stupid.

You know that, right?

Right.

Hey, I was going to surprise you, but I got two tickets.

Hey, how did you know she was my ex?

And the best snorkeling is in the Crystal Lagoon. Have fun, you guys.

Thanks a lot.

Hey.

Thanks again for sticking up for me last time.

We've lost a lot lately, Nick.

But the one thing that you are never going to lose is me.

What about Tessa?

Anything that's going on between us is only in her mind. You've got to believe

that.

I do.

Here you are.

Nicole, I just wanted to tell you I'm glad you got your job back.

And whatever our personal feelings, you're a valued member of the Grand

team.

Thanks. I'm glad you're here too, Tessa.

Really? Yeah.

The fish tanks need cleaning.

Cute. I'm serious.

I think you're a little confused about the reporting structure.

No. Didn't Alexandra tell you?

As a condition of getting everybody back to work, she agreed to reinstate me as

your boss.

You know, Jason, I don't know what I ever saw in you.

But as you over a girl like her isn't man enough for me.

You two deserve each other.

Hey.

I go out of my way to get a job for you and you show up so hungover. You have to

leave.

I wasn't hungover.

Then what, Erica?

I got sick.

Sick?

How sick? Because when I hear the word emergency, it had better be life

-threatening.

It's not life -threatening. I had to drop out of a competition and I was

it, Erica. I was going to see some money for one and instead I'm busting tables

at the surf hut.

I'm pregnant.

And it's not just the money. Because sponsors... What?

I'm pregnant.

Pregnant as in?

Having a baby.

Congratulations, Gabriel.

You're gonna be a father.

There you go.
