- This the spot? - Yep.

Are we clear? - So far, so good.

No dive flags or swimmers.

Keep that perimeter clear.

All right, Navy divers are going in.

Stay across from me a couple hundred yards

and make sure no one gets in their safety zone.

10-4.

Welcome to the North Shore.

District 7.

Getting dangerous.

Go, go, go!

Come on, 10 more.

I'm doing full. You're doing half.

Oh, hey, you know what today is, right?

- No, what? - Really?

Come on.

Yeah, I don't love this game.

90 days on the job. Our probation's over.

We're, like, actual lifeguards now.

Oh, yeah? What were we before?

You know what I mean.

Hey, I think I'm gonna ask Cap

for some time on the rescue ski.

- He's gonna say no. - Yeah, maybe.

Maybe not.

You want something, you got to get after it, right?

Yeah, you definitely don't have a problem doing that.

I'm hoping to get tapped for some rescue-ski training.

Maybe get my dad off my back.

Mr. Mayor still mad you took the lifeguard route?

Yeah.

He sent me a recommendation letter for an aide position

in Senator Hayashi's office yesterday.

Wrote it himself. - Ouch.

What do you think?

Insurance and liability.

Risk management?

Yeah, so?

Well, it's a brand-new recruit class, Cap.

Are you trying to make sure

they don't want to become lifeguards?

- Part of the job. - Yeah, the boring part.

Come on, you got to work them first.

See who can cut it in the water.

See, this is why it's good I stayed on as captain.

I am not denying that.

You should come with me.

Check them out. - No, thanks.

Listen...

you work them first, right,

then I'll bore them when they're too tired

to lift their arms, unless you'd rather work with Will.

- We could use some space. - Done.

You're coming with me. - Fine.

Check this bad boy out.

Your wife know how much you paid for that?

It's gonna pay for itself today.

This thing is gonna find it.

Sees through rock, sand, whatever.

Awesome.

Maybe we'll find another engine block

or some more beer cans.

You dropped it, dumbass! You trying to blow us up?

Mark this spot on the GPS. We got to call it in.

Brah, I've been texting you every night.

Where you been? - In bed by 8:30.

Ribs at Lei Lei's, two beers,

out like a light.

You eat dinner alone every night?

You're taking this breakup with Julie pretty hard, bud.

How's things with you and Em going?

- Yeah, okay, I guess. - Hey...

forget about eating alone.

You're hanging out with me tonight.

No, thanks.

I'm not into the bar scene, mate.

Screw the bar scene. Pickleball, brah.

- What? - That's right.

- Pickleball? - That's right.

I'll crush you and take all your money.

You seriously play pickleball?

- Exactly. - Since when?

All right, team, listen up.

First off, I just want to say congratulations.

Another winter in the books,

so give yourself a round of applause--good work.

Yeah?

Uh, but we're still gonna be busy, all right,

with late-season swells, all the races,

and spring break.

So please stay on your game.

Uh, assignments--Pike, Waddell, you guys are at 7-1.

Emerson, Alexander, 7-3.

Will and Laka, you guys are on skis.

10-4, Cap.

Uh, Em and I will be joining Lieutenant Hall

and the, uh, new recruits class for training.

all: Ooh.

- What? - Poor things.

Uh, regular assignments for the rest of you.

Let's get after it.

Uh, Will, Laka?

I just got a call

that a couple of divers found unexploded ordnance

in the water near Nehe Park.

Now, the Navy are sending out an EOD team

and asked us to back them up.

- That's Kenny and his guys? - Yeah.

- Oh. - What?

What?

Yeah, I-I'm not gonna lie. I owe Kenny some money.

- For what? - Pickleball.

Hey, don't laugh.

Listen, don't laugh, because he cheats.

- Uh, Cap? - Yeah?

Any chance that I could partner with Will on the skis?

You're not certified.

He's got to practice sometime.

- That okay with you? - Yeah, it's good with me.

Yeah. Okay.

You good to go with Hina? - Yeah.

All right.

Tell Kenny I said howzit?

Follow his lead, yeah?

No hotdogging. Got it? - Copy.

- Good. - See you out there.

See? No shame. Just got to ask.

Gosh, after winter, this feels like a relief.

It ain't. The ocean's always ready to kill you for free.

Come on, what's scarier than a huge day at Pipe?

- Lots of things. - Like what?

Excuse me? Excuse me?

What's up?

Hey, we're gonna be filming here all day.

Can you clear a section of the beach off for us?

Somewhere down there would be amazing.

Thank you so much.

Like that.

Oh, my gosh. That's Eliza Everywhere.

- Who? - She's got her own channel.

She has, like, 40 million followers.

Never heard of her.

Me and my Aunty Loke are obsessed.

Good. Then she's your problem.

Welcome to District 7.

I'm Captain Jennings.

This is Lieutenant Wright, Lieutenant Hall.

District 7 covers all of Northern Oahu.

That's 22 miles of coastline--

big waves...

big currents, big everything.

You get in trouble out in the ocean or on the beach,

you're our problem.

Em?

That's right.

We staff eight towers, each with a mobile ATV unit,

and run four rescue skis we deploy based on conditions.

We partner with Fire,

EMS, HPD, and Civil Defense

and every branch of the military.

Question?

You finished top of your class, yeah?

That's right.

And that cave rescue on the news, was that you?

You're about to find out that whatever you heard

about Lieutenant Wright,

it is ten times worse.

Hey, good for you, asking Cap to get some practice.

Every bit counts, mate. - Thanks.

Who's this team we're meeting?

Explosive Ordnance Disposal--

Navy unit, underwater bomb squad, basically.

Jeez.

Yeah, they deploy all over the world,

but when they're home, they get called to get rid

of all this leftover World War II stuff.

Team leader is Kenny. He's my old neighbor.

He's a good dude-- rides Bushmans, surfs Sunset.

Sick.

What's going on, fellas?

- Hey. - Hey, mate.

- How you doing today? - How you doing? Hey.

Hey. Hey, bud.

- Hey, what's happening? - What's going on, brother?

- How are you, mate? - Doing well.

You? - Good, good, good.

Kenny, this is Kainalu.

He's been with us a few months now.

Three months today, actually.

They put you with the hammer.

You must be good.

Where's Laka?

Tower.

Tell him I'm gonna collect that pickleball debt.

- Okay. - How bad you beat him?

I didn't beat him. Katie beat him.

Come on.

- Who's Katie? - My wife.

Sorry about you and Julie, by the way.

We heard. - Thanks, mate.

Uh, all right, so what do you need from us?

Perimeter-- couple hundred yards maybe.

Keep the public from wandering in.

You got it.

Probably just a few artillery shells.

We'll locate, assess, and dispose on site.

- Dispose? - Explode.

We'll set the charges, then come back to the beach

to call fire in the hole.

We're ready.

- Launch in 15? - Yep.

Sounds good. - All right.

Let's do it.

Easy enough.

Never say that.

Can you believe this guy?

Oh, here we go.

- Be nice, okay? - Look at you.

You're all nervous. - What? It's a good channel.

Hi. - Hi.

Can we get some help from you guys?

Great news-- my partner here's got you.

She's a huge fan.

Perfect. Okay.

What?

It's your chance to be famous. Go.

Don't forget to smile.

I'm taking 10%.

Em, it's their first day.

You kill one of them, that's on you.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, this is a breath-holding exercise.

It mimics being held under the water by multiple waves.

Breath control teaches you to relax

when your body is telling you to panic.

I want you to grab your rock,

bring it out to the water deeper than you can touch,

and drop it.

That means now.

Go get it.

I'll go first. Two rounds.

We'll work up from there.

Work up to what?

I'll let you know.

Your turn.

- This the spot? - Yep.

Are we clear?

So far, so good. No dive flags or swimmers.

Keep that perimeter clear.

All right, Navy divers are going in.

Stay across from me a couple hundred yards out

and make sure no one gets in their safety zone.

10-4.

- Jackpot. - How many you need?

Two.

How'd it go? You get on camera?

I don't even think they turned the camera on.

Did they ask you to clear the beach again?

Yeah. I told her we don't do that.

Good. Maybe they'll pack up and go.

Doubt it. They want to talk to you.

Me? Why?

Ask her.

What can I help you guys with?

You're okay if we film you, right?

- No. - Why not?

Hey, a little advice for you guys.

If you're gonna be down this close to the water,

just don't turn your back to the ocean.

How come?

Uh, because it's unpredictable

and you got to keep your eye on it.

It's the first thing we learn growing up over here.

Makes sense.

Anything else?

Uh...

if you guys want to film any water stuff,

just do it before the tide drops.

You know you have a chance

to talk to 40 million people right now?

Come on, what's a gorgeous Hawaiian lifeguard's

top five dos and don'ts for visitors at his beach?

Well...

you know, do--do clean up after yourselves, you know?

Don't, uh--don't be disrespecting the locals.

You know, we don't like that. You know what I mean?

You kidding me?

- Do you see this? - We're cool. We're nice.

We're friendly. We're here to help the public.

- How we doing? - All clear.

Yeah, 10-4.

I've got two paddlers.

- Copy. You need help? - Negative.

I'll get them out of the danger zone.

Yo! Hey, mate!

Everything okay?

Yeah, you got to go back the way you came, guys.

We were just at the end of a seven-mile run.

Sorry, mate. I can't let you through.

You got to go back.

- What the hell was that? - Get out of here now!

Ocean Safety Rescue 1 to Dispatch.

Possible multiple-injury incident.

Respond to Nehe Park.

Get back! Get out of here!

Seriously, that woman does not let up.

Oh, come on, gang.

I thought we'd at least make ten reps.

That was only three.

All available emergency services units

respond immediately

to a possible multiple-injury incident near Nehe Beach.

Em!

We got to go!

Coming!

What? - We got to go.

- What about them? - Now.

Sorry, everybody.

Lieutenant Hall is gonna take good care of you.

I got them.

Kainalu!

Kainalu!

Are you okay? - The ski.

The ski. - Forget it. Can you get on?

- Yeah, I think so. - Come on.

Good? - Yeah.

Take him. We're fine.

Go, grab him. Can you pull him up? Come on.

Set.

Okay, good? Good. All right.

Hey, hey, hey, don't forget to reapply that sunblock

every two hours, huh?

Be safe.

You changed your mind pretty quick.

Yeah, they filmed me giving some safety tips.

You know 40 million people watch her channel?

Yeah. I told you that, remember?

You mad she wanted to film me instead of you?

No.

I mean, what can I say? I'm a people person.

Yeah, so am I.

What?

You could mix it up a little more, that's all.

- Really? - Yeah.

God, you sound like Kainalu.

You could definitely mix it up a little more with him.

What is that supposed to mean?

Please.

You know that guy's nuts about you, right?

Yeah, you know.

What's up, Cap?

Yeah.

Got it.

I got to go. - What? What happened?

Something with Will and Kainalu.

Hold it down, okay?

- You gonna be okay? - Yeah.

Got him? - Yeah.

All right. Hey, you start on him.

I'll go get the others.

Mike and Kenny are still down there.

Yeah, we'll get them. Just get on. Come on.

Go.

One, two, three, four, five,

six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

Come on, please. Please.

One, two, three...

Oh, thank you, God.

Over here.

Pulse, not breathing. - How many we got?

I don't know.

What the hell?

Thank you.

Will's bringing in more victims--it's bad.

Hey, we got two more!

- Good? - Yeah. Help him.

- Cap! - Go.

I've only got one ski. I'll back you up.

- Are you sure? - Yeah.

- Medevac is on the way. - All right.

Where's Emerson? - EMS took him.

- What happened? - I don't know.

Down there.

Hey, got one!

- Hey, where's Kenny? - We haven't found him yet.

And he's been down there at least 10 minutes.

Take him in. I'll look for Kenny.

Set!

- One... - One, two, three.

On three. One, two, three.

Got him? - Yep. I got it.

Yep.

He's still got a pulse.

Get oxygen on him immediately.

Cap! - Yeah?

Kenny's still out there. Laka's looking for him.

Yeah.

Sonny, you got to call your people back in.

- Why? - Navy is saying stand down.

They got people on the way. - Okay.

We're here now.

So, unless someone's gonna arrest me,

I'm not calling anybody in.

- Hey, right here. - All right.

Yeah. Hey, you come here. I'll go down.

I'm going in.

- Right here? - Yep, let's go.

Nothing. Go! Let's go!

Hey. Good?

I'll take over.

Yeah?

It's your wife.

- Jarrah. - Hey.

You weren't answering your cell.

I'm at the hospital on my shift.

- Hey, is Kainalu there? - Yeah.

How's he doing?

You should get over here.

The mayor is on his way from town.

Okay.

I'm here to see Kainalu Emerson.

I'm his father. - Of course.

Um, Dr. Alger's in with him now,

and Captain Jennings is waiting, too.

He's my husband. - Mr. Mayor.

Where's my son?

Right this way.

How is he?

Stable.

We're still waiting on his blood work,

but he likely has a ruptured spleen,

perforations in both eardrums.

We drained his right lung.

There was some capillary damage, internal bleeding,

treating for a concussion--all consistent with blast trauma.

Can we airlift him to Honolulu?

I wouldn't advise it.

We're monitoring him for a cerebral hemorrhage.

We gave him a mild sedative so he can rest,

but you're welcome to wait with him.

Thank you.

I'd like to wait.

Oh, I think you've done more than enough for today.

Okay.

Where are they?

- Have you heard anything? - No.

Nobody's answering the phones.

Hey!

- We see him! - I got him.

So good!

Look at them!

Help.

You good?

Grab on.

On the board, okay?

I'm gonna pull you back now.

Hang on, okay?

No, down. Right here.

Are you okay? You need some oxygen.

That was incredible.

You did great.

Wait, did they put-- did they put you up to this?

- He okay? - They put him up to it.

What?

She told him to swim out there and get in trouble

so that she could film it.

Go to Channel 6. - Why?

Go with it. Trust me.

What's up, you guys? You already know who it is.

It's Eliza Everywhere,

and we are on the stunning North Shore of Oahu.

Look at this beautiful blue ocean behind me.

I have to say, this beach is action-packed.

I actually happened to catch a live rescue earlier,

and I just wanted to let you guys know they're actually--

Are we in trouble? - Get off my beach, now.

We have a permit that goes until 7:00.

Not anymore. I'm invoking Article 17 right now.

What's that?

It gives me the authority to arrest and detain you

until the cops show up. - Did we break a law?

Yeah. Endangering city and county workers

and endangering members of the public on purpose is illegal.

Dudley works for me.

This is a public beach. He's on it. He's the public.

Now pack up and get out.

Tower 7-3 to Dispatch.

10-4, Dispatch.

Dispatch, requesting HPD to Tower for Article 17.

Copy.

All right, HPD en route.

She almost got you killed.

You gonna go to jail for her now, too?

Get my things.

That was awesome.

What have you heard?

They won't tell us anything.

What about our ski?

Still out there. We're grounded.

Whole bay is closed off to boat traffic.

Yeah, news van came and left. Nobody to talk to.

What? They didn't want to talk to you?

No, they did. We told them no comment.

Not until we get word on Kenny and his team.

Good.

How's Kainalu?

He's banged up, but the, uh, doc said he's gonna be okay.

Good.

- Captain Jennings? - Yes?

Commander Wolf, Hawaii Department of Defense.

I understand you ignored my directive to stand down.

- That's correct. - May I ask why?

Well, my team was on site, and I made the call to respond.

It was a direct order.

Your team had no idea

if there was other live ordnance on site.

Look, in all due respect, Commander,

we don't work for you.

Are you at least gonna tell us if they're okay?

I'm not at liberty to share that information.

Great. Now we're in trouble.

- Hey, that's, um... - Oh, yeah.

Cap, that's Kenny's wife. - Yeah, I know who she is.

There's only one reason why she's here right now

and not at the hospital.

Hey.

Katie.

I'm so sorry.

Oh, God!

Dad? - You're awake.

Yeah.

Just got off the phone with your mother.

She was on the Big Island visiting your sister,

but she's on a flight back now.

Oh, she didn't have to do that.

I'm okay. - No, you're not okay.

You're in the damn hospital.

Sorry.

I guess I understand this...

lifeguarding thing is about proving yourself.

You've done it. You proved yourself.

Now it's time to get back on track.

Back on track?

Yes, college, law school, like we discussed.

Dad, that's not gonna happen.

I love my job.

I love being on the beach. I love being in the water.

I love helping people.

I'm not quitting.

Hey. - Hey.

Uh, Hina, this is my dad,

Mayor Emerson.

Dad, this is Hina. We work together.

And she's also my roommate at the condo.

Hmm.

- How you feeling? - Not great.

We were all really worried about you.

These are for you. Loke made them.

- Oh, thanks. - No worries.

She wanted me to tell you you're a G.

People are already telling stories about you--

straight in for the rescue, no hesitation.

Got that Navy guy off the sled and then onto the beach alone,

then brought him back to life.

I don't really remember much, but...

sounds pretty cool.

How was your day?

Ugh, you don't want to know.

I should go.

I take it you're not coming home tonight?

Doctor wants to keep him under observation

for the next 24 hours.

- It's just a precaution. - Okay.

I can pick you up tomorrow, if you need.

Shoots.

Thanks again. - Least I could do.

Oh, and I'm totally gonna eat your special ice cream tonight.

Fair.

Nice to meet you.

Tell Mom I'll call her in the morning, okay?

Nice.

Mmm.

Let's pray.

Almighty God,

we thank You for the life of Senior Chief Kenny Broadus.

We thank You for his years of service.

Lord, we pray for those who are grieving here today,

particularly Katie.

Lord, we pray that You would enter into that deep place

that only You can,

that You would be for them a Prince of Peace,

an Almighty Father, a comforter.

Lord, we pray this in Your holy name.

Amen. all: Amen.

- How you guys holding up? - Rough day.

You're the one who brought me back, on the beach?

- Yeah. - Thank you.

- Yeah, of course. - Sorry about Kenny.

Yeah. Did everything we could.

Yeah, he was a friend.

You guys got nothing to be sorry about.

I'm alive because of you guys.

- That's quite a team. - Yeah, they are.

He seems to have found a home here.

We're looking forward to having him back.

He's a good lifeguard.

He'd be good at whatever he puts his mind to.

Yeah, he could.

But this is a job you have to put your heart into.

That's what makes it different.

That makes them different.

Only four left.

What kind of medieval workout

has she got them doing anyways, huh?

- You expect anything less? - Knees up!

Just talk to her, brah.

Check this out. Let me show you this.

- Are we in trouble? - Get off my beach, now.

We have a permit that goes until sunset.

Not anymore. I'm invoking Article 17 right now.

Laka, come on.

I told you to stop showing that to people.

Can't help it. It's too good.

Besides, my boy needs a pick-me-up.

Article 17, huh? Sounds scary.

- Yeah. - Hey, can I use that?

Hey, quick thinking-- I admire that.

Yeah.

You started off with eight. Now you're down to four.

What are you gonna make them do next, walk on some hot coals?

Oh, you know, just trying to weed out the unserious.

Eh, I'm gonna leave you two alone.

We need to talk.

We do.

I just need some time.

Yeah, yeah, of course.

It's good to see you haven't taken your foot off the gas.

- Never. - All right, everyone, be cool.

Act natural.

What's up?

Hey. Morning. - What's going on?

Morning.

Morning. You left early.

Yeah. Beach run.

Yeah!

Oh, this-- - Emerson.

Rescue ski certification starts Monday, 7:00 a.m. sharp.

Don't be late. - I won't.

Thanks, Cap. - All right.

Uh, you've all got your assignments for today,

so let's get out there, all right?

Be safe.

Em, Will, Laka, Alexander, Emerson,

stick around, please.

- Congrats. - Thanks.

Line up in front of me, please.

- Cap? - What, are we in trouble?

No.

We have a guest.

The, uh, Valor Award

recognizes city or county employees

who perform acts of heroism or bravery

at the risk of life or personal safety

in an emergency situation.

It is the highest honor

given to emergency services personnel.

So, with that being said...

Lieutenant Emily Wright.

Thank you.

Water Safety Officer 2 Will Ready.

Thanks, mate.

Water Safety Officer 2 Laka Hanohano.

- Appreciate it. Thank you. - Thank you.

Water Safety Officer Hina Alexander.

Oh, no, I didn't do anything.

Belated,

for a water rescue during a Code Black swell.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Water Safety Officer Kainalu Emerson.

I'm proud of you, son.

Thanks, Dad.

Captain Sonny Jennings, you know,

it would be unwise for a man in my position

to run afoul of the United States military.

So I just wanted to thank you

for being willing to do it for me.

Mayor's Certificate of Merit.

Thank you, sir.

A copy of these will be placed in your personnel files.

Thank you. all: Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Mayor.

Hey, uh, are we finished out here yet?

Never.
