Along the east-facing shores will be six to ten feet today,brothers,and rising above the advisory threshold of eight feet...
by nightfall sets will be going double overhead.
Hee-hee!
Triple overhead at the bigger spots.
Strong currents and riptides are expected.
It's gonna be heavy out there today.
hey, how is it hey, jason, they were looking for you over the walkie, bro.
There's a problem at the pool.
-Hi, gabriel. -Hey, veronica.
-Water's warm. -Yeah, it is.
I'm going to waikiki to get a bikini wax later.
You want to meet me when your shift's over?
I'm not supposed to socialize with the guests.
-Well, I won't tell if you don't. -I'm not sure your mom would approve.
Oh, please. She's got other things on her mind.
Good morning, ms. Farrell. Is there a problem?
-I ordered my breakfast, and it's not here. -I'm terribly sorry
-And tell the lifeguard to stop hitting on my daughter. -Yes. Of course.
You want to know, uh, what I'm thinking, ms. Farrell?
Why is someone so young and beautiful so stressed out on a glorious morning like this?
I don't know.
I'M... I'm not really.
Yeah, you're not.
You know why? Because you're in hawaii.
she's killing me, jason.
She's killing me.
-Yeah, you know, I looked at the farrells' registration card. -Yeah?
She's 15.
hey.
Ms. Farrell wants her breakfast.
Well, here it is.
Breakfast of champions.
She just complains to get face time with the new general manager.
-And who can blame her? Couple of these, even you start looking good. -Thanks.
Hey, M.J., I'm gonna take a couple of your shirts down to my dad's shop during lunch,you know?
-Thinking maybe he can help sell a few. -Really? I mean... I don't know.
-You think they're good enough? -M.J., Come on.
Want to wait tables for the rest of your life?
Waitress?
Yes, actually.
I love schlepping tropical drinks to guests who spend more in a week than I make in a year.
Our guests expect perfection, and that's what we provide.
Rock star off a tour. Wall street mogul looking to blow through his bonus.
This is where they come to be pampered.
and that'll be your job
to take care of their every need. And trust me, they have a lot of needs.
So, are you up for it?
Sure. I'm looking forward to it.
I think you'll like it here.
We're delighted to have you.
-Nicole? -Jason.
You know each other?
Mr. Colville, cary layne is here.
The bad girl of tennis, just in from wimbledon. Let's go.
I'll explain later.
What are you doing here?
I just got in this morning.
Are you staying at the hotel?
No. Well, yes.
Well, which is it?
Thank you.
Aloha, miss layne.
This is jason matthews, our general manager. And our new director of guest relations, nicole booth.
-Welcome to paradise. -Thank you.
yeah, but why does she have to work at this hotel? I mean, her father owns a dozen hotels
Nicole wants to work where she's not the boss's kid. I admire that.
Okay, but you-you never even told me that you were going to add the position.
You are my right hand, jason,but last I checked, I didn't have to clear personnel decisions with you.
So, what's the story?
We worked together at the concierge desk at her father's hotel on maui.
We had a thing. It was no big deal.
She dumped you, huh?
look, I'm sorry, but I can tell you from experience. You don't want to let the personal affect the professional.
-Hello, vincent. -Hey
As you can see, I'm still working on it.
Now look, nicole's a big asset to us, and I need you two to work together, equal footing.
-Can you do that? -Yes.
Good. All right.
Now while nicole's getting up to speed, I want you to be cary layne's shadow this weekend.
Shadow or baby-sitter?
From what I read, she partied until 5:00 A.M. The night before the us open.
Actually, that was 4:00 A.M.
-Who's counting? -Diane kelly. I'm cary's publicist.
Pleasure. If there's anything that we can do for you, please let me know. Nightclubbing in honolulu, charter cruise...
cary's here to do a car commercial. We're keeping it low-key.
Staying out of the newspapers, if you know what I mean.
Yeah. It shouldn't be a problem.
I am hoping that you can make some time for her, though. You're just her type.
Tough life you got.
dude, that was awesome.
You're getting good.
Man, you made the right call. Sayonara, illinois. Hello, hawaii.
Yeah, for the first month, I wasn't sure. I missed chicago--rush street, the parties. But this place gets a hold of you, man.
Does this island adventure thing make any money?
Yeah. Yeah, I get clients from the hotel, from travel agents. I do okay.
Not like bond trading.
Yeah. They bonused me,like, 300 large.
Damn. Whoa.
Oh, dude!
Who is that?
Nicole booth is bad news.
You met her?
Yeah. I went to maui for, like, two weeks when jason was dating her.
They were so in love, it was actually kind of nauseating.
I mean, she's-she's gorgeous, and I got to say, she seemed pretty cool.
Yeah?
Then she ditched maui for new york.
Totally blew him off.
The chick's cold.
Yeah. I, uh...I appreciate the concern, M.J.,But, uh, it's ancient history.
Just be careful.
M.J.'S got your back.
Here's your mimosa and a pina colada.
Just give a wave if you need anything.
-Thank you. -I'm over it.
Let me spell it out for you.
Your dad makes surfboards.
Her dad makes billions.
Hey, I agree, we weren't compatible.
But why-why are you being so harsh, M.J.?
Because she hurt you, jason.
Why...? Why am I even talking to you?
You have lousy taste in guys.
I had a crush on you when I was five.
Yeah? Is that why you were always walking around naked in my yard?
Is it too much to ask to have my car shipped over properly?
I'm sorry, reja.
An assistant concierge left out some emission papers.
The car's stuck at the airport.
Damn it, vincent.
I'm sitting in that bungalow, writing my book on deadline.
I am very stressed out.
I need to take my lamborghini for a spin,and I want it by 9:00 tonight
I understand, reja.
Ready for work.
I'm ready for my 7:30, nick.
Is that the mellow guru? I've seen him on talk shows. He wrote that book, walk, don't run.
Well, when he's here, he walks. Everybody else runs.
What's his problem?
His lamborghini's stuck at the airport.
What I didn't say was the airport's lax.
Can't we just explain the delay?
Because I expect to walk at 11:30 in nature!
You can tell time, can't you?
Oh. When you drop 130 grand at a hotel, you expect perfection.
If the car's not here, what should we do?
That's what you get paid to figure out.
Jason will give you a hand
He's got the island wired.
I can handle it.
You and jason are going to have to work together, but you want to take this one alone, that's your call.
Just get it solved.
-Hey. -So...
for the last two years, you're sitting in your new york city apartment,
and then suddenly,it hits you."Well, jason must be "over me by now. I better go put him through hell again?"
That's not fair.
You don't even know what really happened. Can I just explain?
I tell you what, nick.
Why don't you find another hotel?
I'll make you a deal.
I keep oahu, and you can have the rest of the world.
-frankie, hi, I'm nicole, the new... -I know.
You know?
I'm a bartender. I know everything.
Ah. I've got a guest whose red lamborghini got stuck at the airport.
Ah, mr. Sabet.
That's right.
Well, I found the right model at luxury line. One problem: It's silver.
I need it red. Word has it your cousin has a body shop.
Nicole, we have an expression here on the island.
Yeah, I know."Go easy."
Po ino no.
-Meaning...? -You're screwed.
-Hey, what's with the attitude? -No problem.
Let me guess. Friend of jason's?
Jason's my boy.
Look, frankie, if he got hurt...then that makes two of us.
Help me out here, huh?
I'll see what I can do.
Hey...we need to talk.
Yeah. I can't right now.
I want to do a good job here.
We have to talk about us.
No, forget about it. It's ancient history.
I'm sorry.
It's-it's weird,seeing you here, nicole.
Just that, this morning, I thought for a second...
maybe... did you know that I worked here?
No... I didn't....But I'd love to talk to you.
Why don't we get together tonight.
tonight, yeah.
That sounds good.
-can you get me out of this thing? -Sure.
-Did you have fun? -Yes.
Uh, cary layne, you remember nicole, head of guest relations.
Hello, miss layne.
My trainer would kill me for that.
-Hey, find a great place for diane and i to eat dinner tonight. -Okay.
I want you to come, too.
-Hey, you done with him? -Yes, I'm done with him.
-hey! -Careful. You don't want to get dust in that suit.
Yeah, yeah.
-Who's this for? -It's for laird.
He wants something real heavy to cut through the chop at jaws.
-Yeah, this thing is beefy. -Yeah.
Hey, could you put these out, dad?
M.J. Did 'em, but she's too polite to ask, and I figure with your blessing,
every gordy matthews fan from the mainland will be grabbing them off the shelves.
-What's my cut? -Uh, M.J.'S spaghetti and meatballs.
Fair enough.
-I, uh... I got to get back, so... -when's the last time you paddled out?
Oh, I don't know. It's been a couple of months.
-Yeah. It shows. -You, uh...
-do you remember nicole, yeah? -Yeah.
She's, um... come to work at the hotel.
Well, you think that's a coincidence?
Why? What're you talking about?
You loved that girl more than anything.
If you ask me, things happens for a reason.
Yeah, then why, dad...do I feel like crap?
When you were a kid,the sight of a-a six-foot wave scared the hell out of you.
Couple of months,it was no big deal.
You've got to face it.
If you got the guts to paddle out, how bad can the day really be?
hey, gabriel. Veronica?
I thought you were going to meet me in waikiki. What happened?
Hi, gabriel.
Veronica, you're 15.
Haven't you heard?
15 is the new 21.
It's not cool.
Believe me, I'm not a kid.
I can't.
Why, you don't like girls?
Yeah, I like girls...ones old enough to vote.
-Hi, M.J. -Hello,nicole.
Hey, I was just wanting to ask you a question about, um...about how's jason doing.
-I know it's awkward, me being here... -why do you care?
Hey, guest relations?
We'll talk later.
I've got a serious problem.
There is this beautiful girl who works here at the hotel, and I need to take her to dinner.
My name's reese.
Well... that's a very nice offer, thank you, but I'm sorry.
I can't. I'm actually working through dinner.
Well, I won't take no for an answer.
Well, I'm sure a man as handsome as yourself won't have any trouble finding company. Trust me.
What, you think you're too good for me?
Reese, come on, man, you've had too much to drink. Come on.
Have a nice evening, sir.
Come on, come back here.
Don't make me call security.
Listen, little bitch.
Hey! Say that again, and I'll have the cops drag your sorry ass off this property.
I should've cut you off an hour ago.
Now get out of here.
-sorry. Idiot frat buddy. -Thanks.
I'm going to say this politely because I told jason I'd be nice to you.
Do not break his heart.
-Hi. -Oh, hey.
I, um, made us reservations at the royal, right over the water.
I'm not coming.
I've got some friends in diamond head I've got to see.
Tonight, she's all yours.
You ready to party?
I'm starving.
Order from room service.
I'm going to have dinner with dr. Michaels
Who's dr. Michaels?
The man we met at the pool.
We meet a lot of men by the pool.
The lipo guy from encino.
I thought we were going to the luau on the beach.
Another night. Now have fun.
Just don't come back here too early.
It's nearly five minutes till quitting time.
I can paint it tomorrow.
Cous, where you find these people?
The hotel is prepared to pay double your fee.
You know, I think she said triple.
That's right. Triple.
Hear what I'm trying to tell you.
We're closed
you a betting man, junior? Winner. Seven.
Paint the car, boys.
This covers triple time. Mahalo, boys.
you scared me.
Are you okay?
I cut my knee.
Gabriel, I have a question.
What?
Do you want to do it or not?
veronica, what made you think this was a good idea?
Well, you weren't going to make a move.
You know the reason.
You don't think I'm pretty.
Not the issue.
Okay, I... no! No!
What's wrong?
Just... get out of here.
Will you please leave me alone?
No, seriously, I love that cereal commercial that you do.
You manage to make dried fruit and wheat bran sexy.
Actually, I'm in negotiations to be their corporate spokeswoman.
Really?
I guess that means I have to be on good behavior.
So what's it like working in paradise?
When I'm out there, on the waves, it's paradise.
Now work, that's another matter.
See, I have very demanding guests.
I'm just kidding.
No, seriously, I love my job, I love what I do, and it's an honor to work under vincent.
I don't know, he's really made something with this hotel.
Someday, I hope to do the same thing.
So what's the deal with that girl on the beach?
Nicole?
She looked at you like you're more than just friends.
We used to date when we worked together on maui.
And then she got called back to new york city for a job.
If she left you, she's not as smart as she looks.
hi. Can I get you a drink? Hey.
You're still working.
Hi. Yeah, double shift.
Look, I want to apologize again for my friend.
Oh, you know how it is.
People come from the mainland, act like they own the place.
Not true with reese. He's a jerk on the mainland, too.
You want to sit?
Um... for a second.
So, uh, where is loser boy?
He couldn't make it past happy hour.
So now he's paying 700 a night to sleep it off.
How come I never see you around?
I just started this extreme adventure thing: Jet skis, helicopter rides, bungee jumping.
Keeps me busy.
What about you, you worked here long?
Just over a year.
The waitress thing's only temporary.
Actually,I'm trying to start a clothing line-- t-shirts, island wear, stuff like that.
Right on.
Um...I gotta get back to work. You should stop by more often.
I will.
-Are you a jerk? -Excuse me?
Well, see, your buddy's a jerk, which would suggest that you would be a jerk, too.
And, if so, I would just like to know now so I don't invest a minute of energy thinking about the next time I see you.
I'm not a jerk.
Hey, sweetie. How are you?
Hey, hold on.
-8:58. -Whaddya think?
Well, let's hope he's had a couple of piņa coladas. On the other hand, he is driving.
Great. There she is.
Good evening, mr. Sabet. Your car is here.
-Thank you. -Of course.
-Wait a minute. -Something wrong?
Just a minute.
-There was a ding in this rim. I clipped it in beverly hills. -Beverly hills?
Ah, we thought that it may have happened during transport. That's why we replaced it.
Right. Good work.
Thank you, sir.
Let junior know we're going to have to replace a rim when the car gets in.
you know something?
What's that?
You and jason must've been a helluva pair.
Ms. Booth? Vincent wants you in his office.
This little piece of trash lifeguard forced himself onto her, after he got her drunk.
Veronica, could you please tell us what happened?
Well, he invited me to his house
Then we... listened to some music.
Then he just attacked me.
I started screaming and ran out.
I filed charges with the police.
Mom, I just want to go to sleep.
Mrs. Farrell. Please, allow us to investigate.
And, of course, your stay here with us will be comped.
Comped? After I'm done with you, I'll own this hotel.
Hey. Can I go for a swim?
Yeah, sure.
You won't get into trouble?
Nah, the lifeguard is a personal friend of mine.
Whoa. Whoa, whoa.
I am on duty.
well, it's not safe to swim alone.
-So how are you going to win your girlfriend back? -Uh, who says I'm trying to win my girlfriend back?
Well, I guess that means you're available.
Better dry off.
W-wait a minute. Wait a minute. Gabriel's been arrested.
All I know is she broke into my house, cut her knee. And I asked her to go.
Did you do anything to encourage her? No.
No, she's been jocking me since she got here.
Jason, can you tell him?
I can verify that.
She has been.
Okay. Thank you.
We'll sort this one out, gabriel.
He didn't do it.
You're going to have to separate your friendship with gabriel on this one.
I can't do that, vince.
I know he's like a little brother to you, jason, but if you want to remain a manager of this hotel, you have to protect the hotel first.
You know, you talk a lot about family. Is that just talk?
What happens if this kid really made that stupid mistake?
Forget about a lawsuit.
Think about what the publicity would do.
Oh, you're right. I'm sorry. It's about publicity.
I am not talking to your back!
I didn't build this place to have it torn down because a 21-year-old can't keep it in his pants. You can go.
Let me talk to him.
It's a "he said," "she said."
We can't be sure what happened.
I know what happened.
Why would she make it up?
I don't know, nicole.
All I know is that he didn't do it.
If a guest makes an accusation against a hotel employee, we have to take that seriously, jason.
Okay, nicole, let me ask you something.
If veronica was a maid, and gabriel was dropping $3,000 a night in the presidential suite, who would you believe then?
Oh. So it's back to the class thing.
Yeah. Rich girl and the help.
Sound familiar?
Hey, I'm not the one skinny-dipping with a tennis star.
-wow, you're jealous. -I am not jealous.
-Yeah, yeah, you are. -No, I'm not.
Jason. I'm sorry.
Hey. I'm totally freaking out about gabriel.
They're gonna hang it on him.
I'll handle this.
Compared to yesterday, today can't be worse.
New york post ran that online this morning. It'll be in print tomorrow.
She pulled me into the pool.
Jason, our guests don't come here to be photographed by paparazzi.
Now I want you to go to her bungalow, and set it right.
Meanwhile, the police inform me that they are charging gabriel with a count of bodily assault.
-All right, listen, he... -jason, I respect your loyalty to the kid. I really do.
And I'm sorry I got so hot with you.
But I'm working with nicole on this one.
Some people can't afford a high-priced lawyer.
Would you take my luggage from 604?
Who is it? Uh, it's jason.
Yes?
I wanted to apologize.
I'm sorry about what happened last night.
We like to pride ourselves on maintaining the utmost privacy...
it's okay.
Just don't let it happen again.
Uh, you can put that right there.
-Hey, uh, are you okay? -Yeah.
Hey, sweetie? Where's the face cream?
You know, I don't...I don't read page six.
Were rumors starting to fly?
Wait a minute,wait a minute. Let me guess.
You were about to lose the wheat brand gig.
Who took the pictures? You?
Look, that endorsement, the company was getting nervousand, as an athlete, there's a small window of opportunity, and it closes quickly...
I'm sorry, jason.
I'm going to go get a massage.
I'll see you at breakfast
hey, man,I'm gonna sue your ass!
Oh, yeah? Get in line.
Thank you.
Believe me, I didn't do it for you. I did it for the hotel.
-Hey, veronica. -Hi.
I just saw your mom downstairs checking out.
Whatever.
You know, when I was a kid, I studied ballet.
We did a recital at carnegie hall.
I kept looking out to see if I could find my dad, but his seat was empty all the way through to the last curtain.
He came to my dressing room afterwards,arms full of flowers, and told me how much he loved every single moment of the show.
There were a thousand other empty seats growing up.
Hey. I know what it's like to come second.
Someday your mom is gonna wake up and she's gonna realize how special you are.
But using gabriel to wake her up isn't the way to do it.
What the hell are you doing here?
I'm just talking to veronica.
Who do you think you are?
Mom. I made it up.
Last night, nothing happened. I made it up.
I just couldn't stand being invisible anymore.
-He turned me down... -Veronica.
I know, mom, it's hard to imagine, the help turned down your daughter.
Please tell gabriel I'm sorry.
I will.
One word of advice, brother, man.
Lock your windows at night.
I swear, I will never talk to a guest as long as I live.
Six in the corner.
Hey, looks like your shirt's starting to sell.
Excuse me.
Hey. I been looking for you.
I wanted to see if you might want to rappel the punch bowl next week.
Don't you have a girlfriend?
The sports illustrated cover girl or miss usa or genetic mutation or whatever she was?
You mean carrington? No, she's my brother's wife.
Pull up a chair.
I want you to know how sorry I am about everything you had to go through.
Jason told me what you did. Thank you.
No problem.
Jason, uh... can I talk to you for a minute?
Yeah. Sure.
I want to thank you for what you did for gabriel.
That was, uh...that was all right.
Of course.
Look, I've been wanting to talk to you about something ever since I got here.
I'm listening.
Well, you met my father.
You know what he's about.
He couldn't stand the fact that I was dating someone who wasn't in the fortune 500.
He called me back to new york.
He told me if I tried to see you again, that he was going to have you fired.
I know how important it is to you to succeed.
I didn't want to screw that up.
I gave away the first man I ever loved.
That was you.
I'm sorry, jason
God, I have missed you so much, nicole.
Jason, I haven't exactly known how to say this...
-I didn't want you to see it before I had a chance to try and explain... -you're engaged.
That's, uh... congratulations, nicole.
Bo giving you the surf report. Got some light chop out on the north shore...
...the next advisory will be issued at 11:00 A.M. Or sooner if conditions warrant...
...right now, it's a cool south pacific trade wind, double overheads at the big spots...
hey, you sure it's safe out here for a guy your age?
It's a pretty big swell.
So, how you doing, kid?
It's a new day.
I figure, if you got the guts to paddle out, how bad can it really be?
