"Next on" Baywatch:

I'm not asking you to approve

of our tactics, just the results.

If it weren't for Greenforce...

You wouldn't have made the cover of "Newsweek" magazine.

You got 104 temperature, pal.

Have you been swimming today?

It's not the flu, Mitch.

It's chemical poisoning.

They have been exposed to a highly toxic substance.

I am really getting sick

and tired of companies like Transicon

dumping their crap in my water!

According to police,

Lane Brody was trying to sabotage the plant... what?

Mitch is in a coma... he's fighting for his life.

Hey, Brenda, wait up!

Brenda!

Brenda, slow down!

Brenda, wait up!

- Brenda, wait up! - Oh...

Brenda, where are you going?

Whoa!

Lay down.

Can you breathe?

Push on my hand.

Squeeze my hand.

Hobie, I'm all right.

You better not try to kiss me.

Kiss you?

I was just trying to make sure you were okay.

Could have broken

your neck or something.

Okay, so it's me, her, and the dog in the sleeping bag.

It's pouring rain...

Hey, Mitch, Mitch.

Come see what the cat dragged in.

Hey, man! How are you?

How you doing, Lieutenant?

Good to see you, man.

Can I have your autograph?

I mean, it's not every day

we get an international celebrity here.

Listen to you.

I hope he doesn't want his old job back.

Aw.

Hey, what's the matter, guy can't come back

and visit a few of his buds?

So, I missed you, you big lug.

Lane!

Hey!

Hi.

I am so proud of you.

This man risked his life to save baby harp seals.

It was very heroic.

Sinking a ship, that's heroic, huh?

This was a ship that was carrying hunters out

to kill defenseless animals.

Oh.

I don't need you to defend me, Shauni.

I have an attorney that does that... and, Ben,

I'm not asking you to approve

of our tactics, just the results.

If it weren't for Greenforce...

You wouldn't have made the cover of "Newsweek" magazine.

Not to mention 60 days in an Alaskan jail?

Yeah, more like a maximum-security igloo.

What do you think of our tactics, Mitch?

Do you see Greenforce

as a bunch of wild-eyed eco-terrorists?

I don't know; I haven't decided yet.

You know, there's really not much difference

between what I do now and what I did as a lifeguard.

It's all about prevention.

We act to stop the next disaster

before it happens, just like you do.

Wait a minute,

I've never been arrested for making a save.

It's not the same thing.

Yeah, but what's the alternative?

I tried working through the system.

I wrote letters, I marched in demonstrations.

I spent six months in Washington lobbying Congress.

Mitch, the system does not work...

at least not fast enough for me, or the planet.

At the present rate we're destroying the ozone layer...

Lane, I admire what you're trying to do...

I just don't agree

with the way you go about doing it.

Does that mean I shouldn't ask for your help?

Not necessarily.

What kind of help are you talking about?

Well, about a month ago, I was contacted by someone

on the inside of Transicon Industries.

You probably heard of them... they're a big

- plastics manufacturer. - Yeah.

Anyway, this guy's prepared to blow the whistle

on their entire waste management operation.

He says that they've gotten away

with hundreds of illegal dumpings.

He's got access to documents, and all we got to do

is get in there and get them out.

You mean steal them.

In order to shut down a major polluter,

yeah, if that's what it takes.

Look, Mitch, I'm not asking you to get directly involved.

Nobody's going to get hurt.

Well, what "are" you asking me?

Well, I'm just not "100o/%" sold on this whistle-blower.

I've only spoken with him on the phone, and I, uh,

wouldn't mind some backup when this thing goes down.

Sorry, Lane, I can't do it.

Mitch, you got to draw the line somewhere.

I do.

I draw the line at breaking the law.

Yo, Hobester!

- Dad. - Catch.

You remember Lane Brody...

former lifeguard turned environmental commando.

- How you doing, Hobie? - Hi.

Yeah. Good to see you.

Hope you don't mind if I join you guys tonight.

You mean at the Grand Prix?

Oh, yeah! I used to love those little cars.

You can pretend you're Mario Andretti,

whip around those turns.

When did Captain Thorpe call?

About ten minutes ago.

We're gonna go put on some sweaters.

It's kind of chilly outside. Would you, uh?

- Yeah, I got it. - Thanks.

- Hello. - Hi.

- Hey. - Come on in.

Great.

Eddie's still back east at the lifeguard games,

so I thought I'd see what you guys were up to tonight.

Great. We're glad you did.

At least I am.

So how is Eddie? Are you guys happy?

You like living together?

Yeah, yeah, it's great.

Yeah. Bummer.

Hey, Shauni, you want to go to the Malibu Grand Prix with us?

Yeah, sure, why not?

Great.

- Hey. - Hey.

Bad news, Hobie.

Um, I just talked to Captain Thorpe.

There's a special meeting at county headquarters tonight.

Attendance is mandatory.

I knew it.

I'm sorry, pal, believe me.

Look, we'll do it another time, okay?

That's what you always say.

Hey, wait a minute, who needs your old man?

We'll take you.

You will?

Can they, Dad?

Hobie, are you sure you're up to it?

Because you look a little pale.

Mitch, he looks

a little pale to me.

I'm okay.

Come on, let's go.

Uh, go on, and, uh, be careful

and have a great time and, uh...

don't go too fast around those turns.

Oh, no!

Hobie, what happened?

Are you hurt?

Hobie, are you okay?

Hobie?

Are you okay?

Let's get him home.

All I remember is my head started spinning.

I felt like I was going to throw up.

Well, it's no wonder.

You got 104 temperature, pal.

I'll run him a cold bath.

Yeah.

I'm gonna get some ice.

Would you help him take his clothes off?

Yeah.

Okay? Okay.

Yeah?

Actually, Mrs. Nickman, this is a bad time.

Hobie's got some kind of bug.

She does?

Here we go.

Shauni, let me see some light.

Okay.

What "is" that? Is that a rash?

A skin irritation.

He's got some on his leg as well.

Some on his neck, too.

Hobie, you have allergies of any kind?

No, I don't think so.

Have you been swimming today?

Yeah.

Where?

The lagoon.

My friend Brenda fell in, and I had to help her.

Just got a call from Brenda's mom.

Looks like Brenda's got the same thing.

Call her back and tell her to get her to an emergency room.

What?

It's not the flu, Mitch, it's chemical poisoning.

They have been exposed to a highly toxic substance.

Mitch, what are you doing here?

I work here.

Well, who's with Hobie?

They're keeping him in the hospital for observation.

Is he gonna be okay?

Yeah, he's hanging in there.

What a long night.

Did they confirm it was chemical poisoning?

Yeah, but his system didn't absorb enough

to determine the exact compound.

Did you get those water samples from the lagoon?

We were there at the crack of dawn.

Lane's at the lab right now having it analyzed.

When do we get the results?

I don't know.

But I'm sure it's gonna be a while.

Why don't you go home and get some sleep?

I'm not tired.

They put a cot in Hobie's room for me.

You know, he kept waking up in the middle

of the night crying out for mommy?

All boys want their mommy when they're sick.

I know, but when your son is lying there in pain,

and there isn't a damn thing you can do about it...

I've never felt so helpless in my whole life.

All right, put Eddie on 15,

Newmie on 16, Shauni on 17.

You want to work at headquarters today?

I'll do that, no problem.

Why don't you, uh, get some rest.

You look tired.

Yeah. And, um, as far as one and two,

put Jimmy and Bobby on them.

Okay, I'll do that. You take care, all right?

Hey, what's happening, Lane?

- How you doing? - How you doing?

- Okay. - Good to see you.

I'll see you guys later, all right?

So what'd you find out?

Enough to let me take him home tonight.

You know, Mitch, he's not out of the woods yet.

Once that toxic agent gets into his system

it could affect any number of things...

his nervous system, his hearing, his heart.

I know.

I know. I went over everything with the doctor.

Lane, he suggested

we shut down the beaches as a precaution.

No. The lagoon appears to be the only area

of significant contamination.

Any theories on how it got contaminated?

Well, there's a storm drain

about 20 feet from the entrance of the lagoon.

A lot of the time, after a heavy rain,

polluters'll just dump into a storm drain...

the runoff carries it

out into the bay and makes it

virtually impossible for them to trace.

Well, I put in a call to the E.P.A.

They said they'd send out a team of investigators.

Yeah? Well, I wouldn't count too heavily

on a bunch of government bureaucrats.

These guys are gonna come out here,

they're gonna ask a lot of questions,

they're gonna take a lot of memos,

then, they're gonna move on to the next case.

Hey, tell Hobie hi.

I will.

Jeff?

Yeah.

Lane Brody.

Nice to finally associate

a face with a voice.

Same here. It's a privilege to meet you.

I wish I had half your guts.

Aw, hell, you're the one that's risking his career.

This will get you inside.

You're a computer technician.

I've got your gear in the trunk.

Okay.

Mmm, good.

Dad, don't make me eat that.

Come on.

Dad, please, it tastes like turpentine.

Come on, pal, you're gonna spill it.

Come on, open up.

Ah... that a boy.

Ugh.

How long did the doctor say I'd be sick?

A couple of days.

But you'd get better a lot faster if you get some rest.

But I'm not tired.

Not much.

Come on.

Get some sleep.

I love you.

Dad?

Yeah?

Would you read me a story?

Yeah, sure.

Which one?

You choose.

Okay, let's see.

Remember this one?

Too scary?

No way.

Okay.

Scoot over, pal.

You ready?

The Ghost in the Closet.

"It was a cold and dreary night.

"There was a knock on the door.

"A howling dog could be heard in the background.

"There was a crack of thunder and a flash of lightning.

"The knock came again on the door.

Slowly, the door handle turned. "

This way.

Wai-Wait a minute...

one thing that we haven't discussed.

The guards are going to check my briefcase

when I'm leaving, and how am I supposed

to get out with the documents?

- Through the fence. - Okay.

I'm sure you'll find ample evidence of abuse.

I'll check it out.

Wow.

This is unbelievable.

Have you...

"Step by step,

"Brandon walked down the stairs.

"Suddenly, a ghost flew out of the closet,

and he called, 'Mom, Mom!"'

Coming.

Hey, Captain.

Hey, Mitch, I, uh...

Look, I'm sorry to bother you.

How's Hobie?

He's okay. He's sleeping.

Good, good.

Mitch, there's been an accident

at the Transicon Industries plant.

What happened?

One of the pipelines was blown.

Over 100,000 gallons of toxic chemicals

spilled into the storm channel.

Should reach the bay about sunup.

We've got to close down all the beaches

from Palos Verdes to Point Dume.

Okay, I'm on it.

Now, Mitch, I've already talked to the chief.

We're coordinating with the Coast Guard.

How the hell did this happen?

According to the police,

Lane Brody was trying to sabotage the plant.

What?

They figure his explosives detonated prematurely.

Mitch, he's in a coma.

He's fighting for his life.

Hey, buddy.

It's me... Mitch.

Guess you were right about needing backup, huh?

What happened, man?

I don't know who to believe here.

Lane, if you talk to me, I can help you.

Okay, pal.

Just rest easy.

Don't you worry.

We'll nail these guys.

No, I'm sorry.

We really don't have any idea when the beaches will be open.

I can't speculate on the extent of the damages.

Let's just say they're not good.

Okay, thank you for calling.

Baywatch.

Yeah.

Okay.

Uh-huh.

All right, what do we know about Transicon Industries?

Is this their first spill?

What difference does that make, Mitch?

It wasn't intentional.

It was Lane... he took the law right into his own hands.

Lane went there to get evidence to bust these guys.

There's no way he'd intentionally

create a toxic spill.

And there's no way that Transicon

is going to intentionally blow up its own facility!

Come on, you worked with Lane Brody for ten years.

Mitch, the point is, we haven't seen evidence

to even suggest that Lane was set up...

not that I'm ruling that out as a possibility,

but the fact remains,

Lane was trained in the navy to use explosives.

The lab gave a positive I.D.

On the substance we found in the lagoon.

It's called AZ-47, and it's a pesticide.

Or I should say, it "was" a pesticide.

What do you mean?

It's been banned by the Department of Agriculture.

And it hasn't been produced in this country for over 15 years.

15 years?

And, all of a sudden, it ends up in our backyard?

And of course at this point, it's almost academic.

I mean, we're going to have to clean up

the entire shoreline after this spill anyway.

Buchannon.

Yes.

Yeah, I'm there.

He's out of the coma.

There you go.

Careful on the stairs. Just take your time.

Hi.

Your friend is a very lucky man.

Can we see him?

Sure. In a minute.

He's with his priest right now.

Go ahead; I'll wait.

His priest?

Lane's not Catholic.

He's not?

He's still alive.

Playa del Sol.

What?

Transicon...

Playa del Sol.

You hang in there, buddy.

You take care of him, huh?

Hang in there.

- Hey. - Hey.

Oh, I got a call from Garner.

Turns out, the priest is not cooperating with the police.

He won't even give his name.

What do you think Playa del Sol means?

The area around the lagoon

used to be called Playa del Sol.

Before they built those million-dollar homes,

it was a landfill.

What's that?

Message I got from Lane.

Nurse called it in.

What is this?

Some kind of a code. What's it for?

I don't know.

That's all she wrote, just those numbers.

Well, do you think this has something to do with Transicon?

Yeah.

Well, did you tell the police?

No.

I really hope that you're not thinking

about conducting this investigation on your own.

Shauni, before the police get a search warrant together,

those files could be destroyed.

Mitch, that's crazy.

No way. Forget it.

You're not doing it.

At least not without me.

No. You can forget that.

No! I won't forget it.

Look, Lane is somebody that I admire very much.

And right now, it's his word against Transicon's.

He can still be sent to prison for that bombing,

unless we prove that they framed him.

And you want to know something else?

I am really getting sick and tired

of companies like Transicon dumping their crap in my water!

Enough is enough!

If we don't stand up to them, who will?

Sounds like I got a backup.

You're damn right you do.

" Why don't you take these, huh?

I got it.

"Playa del Sol. "

Lane was right.

Well, is this all we need?

Yeah.

Good. Let's get out of here.

I'll take that bag.

You're in no position to resist,

and I won't ask again.

Hands up.

I'm sure you have an explanation for this.

We're friends of Lane Brody.

We know you tried to kill him.

We also know that, 15 years ago,

you buried AZ-47 underneath the Playa del Sol landfill.

We know you deliberately caused the toxic spill

to cover up the pesticide that was seeping to the surface

to save your company millions of dollars in lawsuits.

Yes.

Clever.

Too clever for your own good.

" Two Waverunners heading for your positions.

Got them.

Don't let them out of the channel.

I repeat: Don't let them out of the channel.

Roger.

Damn! We lost them.

What's happening out there?

Security two, come in.

What's going on?

They went ashore.

They're getting away.

Let's get out of here!

Go! Go!

Uh-oh.

Hey!

You guys are too much.

We will use any excuse to throw a party.

The news just announced,

the head of Transicon

has just been indicted for attempted murder.

And the E.P.A. Is filing separate charges

under the Clean Water Act.

All right.

You did it, man.

You shut them down.

Hey, "we" shut them down.

Don't try and pin all this on me.

Don't try and recruit me for Greenforce, either.

I got my hands full here at Baywatch.

Me, too.

Hey, how about a small financial contribution?

How about some cake?

One thing I was wondering:

Where'd you guys dig up those Waverunners?

They're mine.

Welcome home, Lane.

Thanks, Ben.

Feels like home again.

Good.

Hey, how about some cake?

Yeah, I don't mind if I do.

You don't have to go out if you don't want to.

I do.

It's just that I feel strange,

like it's not the way it used to be.

Does that make any sense?

Yeah.

Yeah, it makes a lot of sense.

I'm telling you, that water is not going to hurt you.

We've tested it over a hundred times.

It's as clean as we can get it.

- Okay. - Okay.

- Dad? - Yeah.

Did you have to worry about pollution

when you were a kid?

No.

Maybe that's why it's such a big problem today, you know?

- Yeah. - We always took for granted

that the water would stay blue and clear.

Well, it's still a beautiful thing.

Yeah, it is.

Then what are we waiting for?!

Let's hit it!
