Not even. You said 5:30. It's 5:30.
On time is 10 minutes late.
All right.
OK.
Uh, so what are we doing?
Patching net.
You know how?
- No.
- All right.
That's yours.
Watch me.
Needle. It's called a hi'a.
Used to be made of wood, sometimes bone.
Now most are just plastic.
So how's our District 7 team doing?
Solid.
Carter, Tamayo, Moe, they're all good.
Rookies are getting better every day.
Yeah?
How's Em and Will doing?
[SCOFFS] Yeah, not great.
Ah.
They had a run-in with each
other at the bar the other night.
Em was with Sean,
Will was with somebody else, and just
it was rough.
Oh, yeah.
How would you handle it?
Well, [CHUCKLES]
my auntie, she had these two cats.
They didn't get along with each other,
so she threw them in an
empty barrel together.
And they scrapped, but
after that, they were cool.

I dropped him off this morning,

You want stories, I got them.

Uh, Vince is a veteran lifeguard
and an incredible waterman, so
we're very lucky to have him.
- Thank you.

Nice to meet you all.
Uh, long story short, mudslide
took my tower on Kauai.
I got six months left on the job.
Figured I'd save the
toughest place for last.

Yeah, that's right.
Uh, shout-out to Will and
Em for yesterday's rescue.

Let's get after it. Thanks, guys.
Vince, this is your

Ah, good to meet you, boss.
Oh, call me Em.
And I want to hear
some of those stories.
Absolutely not.

Better.
He's the last man standing.
Walk down the beach to the towers
and ask the lifeguards to
rub some sunscreen on you.
All the way down there?
Yeah, all the way down there.
Do you care about your brothers?
[CHEERING]
Yes, Mr. President.
Of course you do.
Now get going!

Come on, put a little swing in it!
And don't forget to ask them
for an item from the scam list.
You're a baddie!
[CHEERING]
You guys are idiots.
[LAUGHTER, CHEERING]
So you worked Kauai
most of your career, huh?
Career?
Check this guy out.
[LAUGHS] Nah, I'm just joking.
Yeah, Kauai's home.
Where in Australia are you from?
- Uh, Cronulla.
- Oh, damn.

Rough neighborhood.
Eh, it's home.
What about you, my brother?
I'm from town.
Yeah?
Where you grad?
Roosevelt.
Ah, I knew I liked you.
Yeah.
Late night?
No, Uncle Sonny's got me up
super early every morning,
helping him patch net and stuff.
Ah.
Sounds like he got you on the program.
Yeah. What do you mean?
All that Hawaiian waterman stuff
surf, sail, fish, dive, paddle.
Old school.
- Good for you.
- Yeah.
That's a commitment.
Oh, he loves commitment.
No, that's your problem, bro.
Hey, so how about our LT?
She is smoking hot.
Yeah.
Um, she's kind of also our boss too, eh?
So? No ring.
She got a boyfriend or what?
Uh
- What?
- Excuse me.
- Oh.
- Hey.
You all good, bro?
Not really.
You lose a bet or something?
I'm pledging a fraternity.
Guess my blowing off
college was the right idea.
We're doing a party flotilla.
- How many?
- I don't know.
10, maybe.
If you guys are out
there in inflatables,
you need to tie up together, OK?
OK.
You got any sunscreen?
I'm supposed to ask
if you'd rub it on me.
No.
Oh.
You got a condom?
It's like a scavenger
hunt kind of thing.
Yeah, I got you.
Thanks.
Rough.
Glad we could help
him out, though, right?
I'm going on patrol.
What's his problem?
I don't know, buddy.
You were perving on his ex
and throwing around condoms,
and just just do the math.
The lieutenant is Will's ex?
So she is single.
Wow.

Good for you.
Never too late.
Can I talk to you for a sec?
What the hell are you doing here?
I'm in town for a triathlon.
I did my first one last
year and now I'm hooked.

I left a voicemail.

I'm sorry it's been so long.
Well, you're working.
I shouldn't keep you.
Yeah.

Nope. Everything on the North Shore
