Oh!

Where's that shoe?

Hobie, have you seen my shoe anywhere?

Sorry, dad. Your shoe, your responsibility.

This place is a pig sty.

Hey. We're young. We're single. And we're men.

We're supposed to be slobs.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Yeah, it's what you used to say to mom

when you first started dating her. She told me so.

Yeah, and look what happened...

Alright, we've gotta clean this place up, starting now.

Why? There aren't any girls around.

Exactly.

I'd like that to change one of these days.

Hey, where you're going? I thought you were gonna help me.

Id' love to, dad, but...

I got my education at stake here.

Summer school, remember?

Trying to be there early.

Alright!

- Okay, let's do it! - Alright!

Yeah!

Come on!

Yeah!

Yeah! Wo-hoo!

Alright, hobie!

Wow!

Ooh!

Alright!

Ooh!

Hey, watch the line!

Hey, dumbbell kid!

You scare away the fish!

- Guys, let's do it! - No way!

Hobester, what do you say, up to shoot the pier?

Alright, let's go!

Forget it, hobie.

Hey, leave him alone, he's just a kid.

Hobester, you're the one who wanted the lessons,

the pier's part of my course.

What do you say?

- Alright. - Yeah!

Good to go!

Hobie, don't be a dweeb.

I may never get another chance.

Hobester, go!

Do it!

Play hard all night, work hard all day.

Oh, I hope she was worth it.

Unfortunately, there was no she...

Tossed and turned all on my own.

Oh, yeah, had my share of those.

Happens usually when I eat late... or if I eat meat.

I dream I'm Rambo from midnight till dawn.

Worst is if I lose something, then I...

Get fixated, turn everything upside-down until I find it.

Oh!

Everything you own in one place?

That's one way not to lose anything.

Ever think about taking any of it home?

No.

You alright?

- Yeah, I'm fine. - Just a rough night.

- Hey, Craig. - Yeah?

Somebody named Chris something just called.

Something about a deposition you're supposed to take?

Yeah, Chris bren?

Yeah, I think that was it.

Sid, you take messages for a living.

You should write them down once in a while.

God, hobie, faster!

Oh!

Are you okay?

Off the scale, man. It was rad!

Wo-hoo! Yeah!

- You did good, hobester. - I'm proud of you.

Feelin' no pain, huh?

Absolutely. Ron, should've done it with us.

Yeah, right. Take a look at your knee.

It's okay.

Hey, Scott, how's tomorrow?

Just dry and wax the skis.

Then put them in the shed, alright?

Alright.

You wanna ride again, right?

Yeah.

Alright.

Hey!

You'd better get things done, hobester.

- Major deal we got going here. - What do you mean?

We're talkin' slave for the rest of the summer.

Why are you walking so funny?

I sanded my shoes.

These are my beach shoes.

You gotta get rid of those crab stompers

and get some thongs like the rest of us.

You try running like a fool in some thongs.

You got the best beat in the police department.

Look, I'm a cop, not a lifeguard.

Transferring me down here was a cruel and unusual punch...

You should've thought of that

before you had that little run-in with your police captain.

That "little run-in" with my captain

was the highlight of my life.

Hey, dad?

- What are you doing here? - I have an idea.

Yeah? Shoot.

I just saw two holes in the parking lot. Major gunk.

Yeah, so what else is new?

Just so happens I'm doing a wash special on today only.

- Money! Oh, money! - You're looking for money.

Let's see. Nothing in this pocket.

Wait, wait, you're lucky.

What... three bucks.

Dad, inflation plays no favorites.

I'll do it for eight.

- Three bucks. - Take it or leave it.

Okay, okay, but for three bucks, I just do the wheels.

Thanks.

What do you got there, anyway?

Where?

Take a look at this, will you? In your hands.

Oh, it's just a poster.

I can see that. Of what?

It's nothing.

You bought a blank poster?

You'll hate it.

I can decide for myself.

I like it.

Special edition. Top speed is 30 knots.

No, the girl, I like her. She's beautiful.

The power ski, I can do without.

Yeah, well, you hate anything that's fun.

- I think it all checks out. - Thanks.

No, I don't.

Do you like horseback riding? River rafting?

- Yeah. - So do I.

You like the Dodgers? The Lakers? The batting cage? Miniature golf?

- Yeah. - So do I.

I am too a fun guy.

If you're so fun,

then why won't you let me try power skis?

- Because they're dangerous. - So is river rafting.

Not if you know what you're doing.

- So you teach me. - No.

Until power skis are regulated and riders are licensed, I don't want...

To have anything to do with power skis.

And that goes double for you, comprendes, hobe?

If you know the rap so well,

why do keep banging your head against the wall?

Because I'm just as stubborn as you are.

Oh, hey, hey.

Hey, hobie, slow down, what are you doing?

You, too, huh?

I can't do anything without having someone on my case.

He says he's a fun guy.

- Who does? - Dad.

Wanna know what we did for fun last night? Algebra!

Wanna know what we did for fun the night before that?

Laundry! He made me match up all the socks!

Somebody's gotta do it.

Not when they're all white!

He didn't used to care about all this stuff.

Now he makes me make my bed and take the trash out.

It's like living with the vice principal!

Actually, it's like living with your dad.

Mine was the same way.

He even makes me go to summer school!

So then what happened?

Okay...

Have you talked to him about any of this?

He doesn't want to listen.

Sure he does.

I've known your dad since he was your age.

He's a good guy. Give him a chance.

What was he like when he was my age?

He was always complaining about his dad.

See you later.

- Okay. - Go for it!

Go, Trevor!

All right, Trevor!

Yeah!

Go, Trevor, Trevor!

Outrageous!

Quite a show.

Had a lot of fun.

A bit on the noisy side.

A bit on the illegal side.

Ooh...

Aren't you supposed to be up there?

Now, the beach club doesn't care where I am,

as long as I watch my water.

Your beach club runs this little patch of sand.

The water belongs to the county.

And the county says no power skis inside the surf line.

The county also says you can't launch them from the beach.

What a county. Too bad it's not landlocked.

You know what I hate about working the tower next to you?

Being so close, yet so far away?

Putting your name on all those incident reports.

You know, you're more trouble than those rip tides.

Get rid of the power ski, before I have you cited.

I know how hard it is for you to make up excuses

to come see me, Jill.

Spare me, Trevor.

Next time, try flowers and candy.

You'll get you a lot farther with me than a rule book.

It might even get you a dinner invitation.

Forget it.

You want me!

Oh!

So, what's the story with this phone number?

Looks good to me. Seven digits and everything.

You said this was your number,

but, when I tried to call you last night,

- I got a pizza parlor. - Uh-huh.

So you live in a pizza parlor?

The owner of the place said that I could use the number

until my phone was fixed.

Okay.

Why did you call?

To see if you wanted to grab a pizza.

Ooh!

Hey, check this out.

Hey, looking good!

Ah!

All right!

No. Please.

Hey, cut it out, it's not funny!

Ooh!

Stop it!

- Cut it out! - Go away!

It's too dangerous!

Come on, man!

Just go away!

I can't find her! Help me look!

Where is she? Where is she?

You killed her!

It was an accident.

We gotta get help!

No, let's get the hell out of here!

No!

Come on! We should get out of here!

Listen to me! Don't say anything, okay?

It's gonna be okay.

We gotta get out of here, right now.

This is kmf-295 from rescue Malibu.

We've recovered a damaged sailboard

about one mile southwest of point dume.

We can't see the rider anywhere in the water.

Request backup to initiate search.

Ten-4, rescue Malibu. Stand by.

Sid, have them do a wide z north toward the shore.

Get the chopper up in a circular,

then have rescue del Rey fill in from the south

and I want an underwater recovery unit code 3

- here as soon as possible. - All right.

Rescue Malibu, kmf-295.

Wide z north toward shore.

Yeah, this is 202 Charlie one, copy your coordinate.

Anybody for backup?

Number 46, this is 302,

north of point dume, don't see a thing.

Negative. The frequency is 34.96.

34.96, over.

They're looking for us.

Relax, they're just looking for the body.

You mean the woman you killed.

It was an accident.

Do you think I meant to kill her?

God... I wonder who she was.

I don't.

Let's just forget about it, all right?

Can we?

Looks new.

Inexperienced rider, hit the boom and passed out?

No, I think something hit her,

not the other way around.

If you amateurs are done,

I'll take this down to the police lab.

For some real analysis.

You gonna let him talk to you like that?

This is the impact site. Collision speed was high.

- What do you think hit her? A speedboat? - Possibly.

What do you mean "her"?

Red speedboat. Poor girl.

Shouldn't be too hard to trace her.

How do you know the victim was a woman?

Especially once we narrow down

the possible launch sites with wind and currents calculations.

- Let's get on it. - Yeah.

Hey, no, no, no, no, wait a minute.

How do you guys know all this stuff?

Because the rigging's set for a woman.

Judging by the boom,

she's at least five foot six, five foot seven.

I don't suppose you figured out her name.

Her name?

Oh, we left that for you.

Maybe the lab can trace some fingerprints on the boom.

Boom, that's the stick-thingy in the middle.

I hate it when you guys get technical.

Hey...

Thanks.

I think I'm gonna need your help on this one.

Shot clock's down to ten,

nine, eight, seven, six, five, four.

A high-arch prayer at the buzzer!

- He scored! - Ah!

The crowd's going wild and the game's over!

Glad to hear it. I'm starved.

Me too. Set the table, will you?

Oh, man, glad you made that shot,

or we'd be hungry a lot longer.

Hey, hob.

Your summer school counselor called today.

Nice guy.

He said you've been cutting class.

Wanna talk about it?

Oh, come on, pal, you get up every morning,

you grab your backpack, you get on your bike and you go somewhere.

I'd kind of like to know where.

It's only happened a couple of times.

No way, four days running.

You gotta level with me, pal.

What do you care? Summer school was mom's idea anyway!

Believe it or not, that's one thing your mother and I agreed on.

Since when? You two fought about it all the time!

Oh, back up. That's not fair.

You're not gonna play your mom and me off against each other.

You know what's not fair?

Being 12 years old and not having a say about anything!

I'm being thrown around like some stupid football.

Sometimes I wake up in the morning

and I don't even know whose house I'm at!

All right, that's enough!

This is not easy on any of us,

and I'm sorry you have to go through with it.

But the subject here is summer school.

Let's stick with the subject, okay?

No, let's not! Ouch!

What's wrong?

It's okay, I fell off my bike.

Let me take a look.

Oh, hobe... why didn't you say something about this?

What, are you gonna give me the third degree

because of a cut?

Hobie?

Hobie, the discussion isn't over yet.

Damn it...

The lab pulled a set of prints off that stick-thing.

The boom, garner, the boom.

I know what it's called.

I just don't wanna sound like a lifeguard.

Yeah, yeah.

Prints belong to a 26-year-old Caucasian

named Diane gray. She lives in the Marina

and her neighbors haven't seen her since this morning.

Did the lab get anything else off the board?

Red paint chips, evidence of a high-speed impact.

You guys were right on the money.

I wish we'd been wrong.

Yeah, that looks pretty grim.

Look, I'll catch up with you in the morning, Mitch.

Thanks.

Yeah. Bye-bye.

Mm. There's more where this came from.

No, thanks.

Still no appetite, huh?

I tell you what. Let's try and get through this

without yelling at each other, okay?

What's going on?

Nothing, I'm fine.

No, you're not fine.

I know when you're fine. When you're fine,

a plate of food like that doesn't stand a prayer.

That's when you're fine.

All right, I'll start.

You hate summer school.

Hey, I can accept that.

It means you're going to be spending a lot of time

doing something that you hate.

But those are the breaks, man.

You bring up your grades next year,

and next summer will be a whole lot different.

You didn't used to talk like that, dad.

You were different...

Before you and mom, you know...

Before we got divorced.

Hey, it's okay, you can say that.

And you're right. I didn't talk like that.

But you know what? I should have.

I let your mom be the enforcer

while I was out teaching you how to surf.

That wasn't fair to either of you.

What's gonna happen to me when she moves to Ohio?

If she moves to Ohio.

She hasn't decided whether she's gonna take that job yet.

I hope she doesn't.

Me too.

What's going on, man? Where have you been going?

The arcade on the strand.

I made a couple of friends there.

Yeah?

You must be going through some serious pocket change.

Nah. I just watch, mostly.

You watch?

There's this girl, there.

Oh, there's a girl?

Well, okay, now I get the picture.

Tomorrow, go to school.

- All right. - All right.

Hey, hob, thanks for telling the truth, pal.

Everything will work out just fine

as long as we're honest with each other.

Eat.

Pomeroy. I have an open lock on 19.

I'm going to check it out.

Ten-4, 28. Kick the phone if you need back-up.

Hey.

Hey!

Um, I... sorry,

but you shouldn't sneak up on a guy.

And you shouldn't be sleeping in the towers!

It's against the rules and...

It's kind of weird.

Well, I got late.

And you wanted to get an early start.
