The fire department, and The state lifeguards.

I have highlighted the Vision requirements

-20/40, 20/40, 20/40.

-we're one of the few Departments that still require

20/30 vision for Incoming personnel.

And do you know When the last time

Our standards were revised?

-well I'm going to say Late 70's, early 80's.

-1978, a lifetime Ago when you consider

The advances made In contact lenses.

As a result we are Losing an untold number

Of highly qualified individuals, Like manny gutierrez.

Oh, by the way his File's in there as well.

-you know this Is highly unusual.

-but within your Authority if done

For the good Of the department.

Going to bat for A rookie washout.

Now this is something that You expect from a captain,

Not from a normal, Everyday lifeguard.

-this is not about Me, it's about manny.

You jeopardized a life.

Being a lifeguard's A 24 hour a day job.

We have a saying around here.

Once a lifeguard Always a lifeguard.

You know what that means?

It means being prepared For any emergency, anytime,

Whenever and Wherever it happens.

Whenever you witness an Incident, whether you're on duty

Or not, you report It immediately.

You do not keep it a secret.

Now do you think You all can handle

That kind of responsibility?

-I had a feeling You'd say that.

I hope you're right.

See you in the water.

You should all be very Proud of yourselves

For making it this far.

As a matter of fact, I'm very surprised

To see many of you still here.

This is about the finest group Of rookies I've ever seen.

That's the good news.

The bad news, there are only 10 openings this season.

Based on our evaluations, And your test scores,

Pretty much puts everybody In the same boat.

So, it comes down to the Final running of the gauntlet.

On your mark!

By the time it all cleared Up it was too late,

I would've missed my flight.

-why didn't you call?

-I was going to.

Then, when I got to school Everything changed suddenly.

I met this upper Classman, and well...

Guess I couldn't find The right words, or,

Maybe I chickened out.

I'm sorry if I hurt you.

Hope it's not too Late to make amends.

-look, I uh...

I'll be off duty In a couple hours.

I'll tell you what, I'll meet you at the...

You know where to meet.

I didn't mention it was My husband's convention.

-no, you didn't.

-I don't go to conventions.

I stay at home and Raise our two kids.

They're all back at the Hotel waiting for me.
