HOUNDING DOWN BEERS, STARTIN' BONFIRES.

I MEAN, THESE GUYS WERE BAD DUDES.

GANG BANGERS.

-DID YOU CALL FOR BACKUP?

-WHY?

I CAN TAKE CARE OF MYSELF.

-TOUCHY!

I WAS JUST SUGGESTING YOU MIGHT'VE BEEN

A LITTLE OUTNUMBERED.

-NEWMIE, I HAVE A BLACK BELT

IN THE STRONGEST OF ALL WEAPONS, WORDS.

ANYWAY, EIGHT OR NINE OF THESE GUYS--

-I THOUGHT IT WAS FIVE OR SIX.

-YOU WANNA HEAR THE STORY OR NOT?

-PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME BEG,

OH MIGHTY WARRIOR.

-OK, FORGET IT.

BUT THEY DID NOT INTIMIDATE ME.

-OH I BELIEVE THEY DIDN'T INTIMIDATE YOU.

I JUST FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE

THEY DIDN'T BEAT YOU TO A PULP.

THEY'LL BE BACK, YOU KNOW.

-NO NO NO, THEY LEFT AND BELIEVE ME,

THEY WILL NOT MESS WITH ME AGAIN.

-RIGHT.

NO. THEY AREN'T GONNA MESS WITH YOU AGAIN.

LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS, YOU MAKE LEMONADE.

I LOVE LEMONADE!

-OBSERVATION DAY?

-JESSIE: YEAH.

-HEY, IF YOU GET TIRED, COME ON IN, OK?

-HE'S JUST A BIG KID.

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME HE HAS EVER SEEN THE OCEAN

-I HAVE TO TALK TO HER.

-WHO? -HIS WIFE.

-ALEX, TAKE HER BACK TO HEADQUARTERS,

I DON'T WANT HER TALKING TO THE VICTIM'S WIFE.

-OK, COME ON, I'M BUYING COFFEE, LET'S GO.

-I DON'T WANT TO!

IT'S MY RESPONSIBILITY--

-NOW! GO!

-SHERRI: VIC!

-EXCUSE ME.

LIEUTENANT MITCH BUCHANNON,

LA COUNTY LIFEGUARDS.

I'M THE LIFEGUARD IN CHARGE OF THE RESCUE.

I UNDERSTAND YOUR HUSBAND--

-HE'S OUT THERE.

-CAN YOU TELL ME THE COLOR OF HIS SWIMMING TRUNKS?

-OH UM, BLUE WITH LITTLE SAILBOATS ON THEM.

BUT HE'S A REALLY GOOD SWIMMER.

-OK, IT'S FINE.

WAS HE TAKING ANY MEDICATION

OR DRINKING BEFORE HE WENT IN THE WATER?

-NO.

WHY CAN'T YOU JUST BRING HIM IN?

-UH, WE'RE DOING THE BEST WE CAN.

IN THE MEANTIME, I THINK IT'S BEST FOR YOU

IF YOU GO WITH ONE OF OUR LIFEGUARDS.

-VIC!

-THEN WHY ISN'T HE HERE?

I LOST HIM!

-SHH, SHH.

[TENSE MUSIC]

-YEAH, IT'S BUCHANNON.

WE'RE LOSING THE LIGHT.

ALL RIGHT, I'M GONNA CALL OFF THE SEARCH.

I WANT EVERY AVAILABLE LIFEGUARD BACK HERE TOMORROW MORNING

AT OH FIVE THIRTY.

-WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

-LOOK, WE'VE USED EVERY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT,

EVERY SINGLE LIFEGUARD WE HAVE ACCESS TO.

THERE'S STILL NO SIGN OF YOUR HUSBAND.

-HE'S OUT THERE, I SAW HIM.

-WE'RE STILL GONNA LOOK, BUT NOT TONIGHT,

TOMORROW MORNING.

-NO, HE'S JUST MISSING!

YOU'VE GOT TO FIND HIM.

I LOVE HIM, I NEED HIM! -SHERRI, HE'S BEEN MISSING

SINCE THIS MORNING.

HE'S BEEN IN THE WATER FOR HOURS.

-MAYBE HE GOT PULLED BY ONE OF THOSE CURRENTS.

-OK, OK, HE MIGHT HAVE BEEN PULLED

BY ONE OF THE CURRENTS,

THEY WERE REALLY STRONG TODAY.

-OK, MAYBE, MAYBE IT DRAGGED HIM DOWN THE BEACH,

DOWN THE COAST.

MAYBE HE SWAM TO SHORE WAY DOWN THERE,

AND, AND HE'S JUST RESTING NOW,

OR MAYBE SOME BOAT CAME BY AND PICKED HIM UP OR--

-YOU KNOW, IT'S GETTING REALLY COLD, LOOK.

-SHERRI: OR MAYBE, MAYBE HE HIT HIS HEAD

ON THESE JETTY ROCKS AND-- -WHY DON'T YOU PUT THIS ON?

-AND HE'S, AND GOT STUNNED OR MAYBE HE GOT AMNESIA, OR.

-LISTEN, OK. -YOU KNOW,

HE DOESN'T HAVE HIS WALLET, SO MAYBE,

MAYBE HE'S HITCHHIKING TO THE HOTEL

OR MAYBE HE'S WALKING. -I TELL YOU WHAT.

WE'RE GONNA GO BACK TO HEADQUARTERS, OK?

GET YOU A CUP OF COFFEE

AND I PROMISE WE'LL TALK ABOUT THIS, ALL RIGHT?

-YOU KNOW, I BROUGHT MY CELL PHONE JUST IN CASE HE CALLS.

-IT'S A GOOD IDEA, IT'S A GOOD IDEA.

-SHERRI, HIS WIFE, PAINTED WHILE HE WENT BODY SURFING.

-HOW'D HE GET IN TROUBLE?

-THE SURF WAS REALLY BIG.

AND I WARNED HIM, BUT...

HE SAID HE WAS GOOD IN THE WATER.

I SHOULD'VE MADE HIM GET OUT.

HE GOT SLAMMED BY A COUPLE OF BIG WAVES

AND HE WENT UNDER.

THE SURF WAS SO STRONG, I,

I HAD TROUBLE GETTING TO HIM, BUT I DID.

-ALEX: WHAT WAS YOUR PLAN OF RESCUE?

-I KNEW THAT BACKUP WAS AT LEAST FIVE MINUTES AWAY,

AND THERE WAS NO ONE ON DUTY YET.

BUT I WAS SO TIRED AND I KNEW

THAT THE ONLY SHOT THAT WE HAD

WAS IF WE MADE IT THROUGH THE DROP ZONE

AND SWAM TO SHORE.

BUT THIS HUGE WAVE CAME,

AND IT TUMBLE DRIED US.

THE IMPACT WA--

I LOST MY GRIP ON HIM.

I WENT DOWN AND I KEPT DIVING AND DIVING

LOOKING FOR HIM.

BUT IT...

-APRIL, YOU'RE GONNA BE OK.

-I'M FINE, I SWEAR, I JUST...

-LOOK APRIL, I THINK IT MAY BE A GOOD IDEA

IF YOU TOOK SOME TIME OFF, YOU KNOW?

MAYBE GET SOME COUNSELING.

APRIL.

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

-THIS IS HIS ROOM KEY,

AND HE ASKED ME TO HOLD IT,

I, I SHOULD GIVE IT--

-HERE.

UH, NEWMAN?

WILL YOU GIVE THIS TO HER, PLEASE?

-NEWMIE: SURE THING.

-THANKS.

LOOK, IT'S NOT GONNA DO YOU OR HER

ANY GOOD TO HOOK UP RIGHT NOW.

-NO, NO PROBLEM.

-NO, I, I THINK I'M GONNA SIT BY THE PHONE

IN CASE HE CALLS.
