You ready?
Hit it!
By winter, our towing game's going to be like butta.
Well, that's if kurt keeps renting us the ski.
You're going to tow me into 40-footers at outer logs, right?
- Don't forget to strap that. - Yeah.
Then some photographer will get a shot of me in this gaping tube
we'll be on the cover of surf magazine. Then I get a sponsor.
Bro, why do you want to go pro so badly?
I mean, is it just 'cause of the money?
No. It's 'cause I can surf 24/7.
Well, if we're late for work again, you can do just that.
Yeah, well, it's fine by me.
I didn't come to hawaii to rescue pool toys.
- We good? - Yeah. Let's go.
We're going to be late for work.
Kurt's going to kill us.
Heads up. I got two whales coming through.
Copy that. They're here.
Jason, freaks and geeks have arrived.
They're not due till noon.
- The plane got here early. - Whatever happened to headwinds?
Hey, will you keep an eye out for damien pruitt?
- Damien pruitt ... rock star? - Yeah
He coming underground?
No, actually he's going to do a little drive-thru.
What kind of rock star comes through the front doors?
One who hasn't had a hit in like two years.
- They're here. - I know.
I have the marble party on a late check out and 615 is double booked
Well, we need every room.
Never at a loss to state the obvious.
We're talking jet-lagged astronomers, nicole.
Looking over my shoulder is not helping.
Let's buy the marbles lunch at the pool side, let them steal towels,
whatever it takes, just get them out now.
Here come the astronomers.
Hello.I should have taken astronomy in college.
Those are triathletes. It's some club from florida.
There's a bunch of them training for the iron man.
Now, there would be your astronomers.
Um, let's just bite the bullet on this one. Upgrade the nashes to the presidential suite.
I have a better idea, I'm just going to put 615 into 620.
- You're in 620. - Yes.
Who's in 615? Morgan holt.
You're fiancé is staying with us at the hotel?
For a couple of weeks, yes.
Well, thanks for the heads up.
Jason, are you going to have issues with this?
- Good morning. - Welcome to the grand waimea.
You didn't hook it to the trailer?
I didn't hook it to the trailer. I spaced.
The coconut cowboy wants to tow in but he spaced at the ramp.
Ooh, lucky you didn't space a 30-foot jaws, or you'd be dead.
As it stands now,
you owe me a new waverunner.
- What ? - Whoa, whoa, whoa, kurt, it's not totaled.
- What about insurance? - Insurance?
What do you think this is? A rental car agency?
Kurt, kurt, kurt, hang on. Come on.
Let gabe get some repair estimates.
It's not the first time you've glued that thing back together.
You're lucky we go back to third grade, franklin.
Don't call me franklin.
Get me kimo. Tell him we have an emergency waverunner repair.
Spare no expense. He'll need cash.
- You good for it? - Yeah, sure. How much you think it's going to cost?
A grand... or two.
I'm a little broke right now, bro.
Well, if you don't come up with the money, by today, to cover this disaster,
you're going to feel a whole new kind of broke. I want the money today, bruddah.
Have a wonderful time.
About this morgan thing.
Can I talk to you? Privately?
Sure.
What's going on?
Before your fiancé gets here, I want to remind you of just one thing.
- Okay, what's that? - This.
Episode 04 - Meteor Shower
Transcript : Raceman - Synchro : Eliboa - forom.com
What were you thinking?
I'm thinking that you kissed me back.
My fiancé is coming in.
This never happened.
Mr. Pruitt, welcome back to the grand waimea.
It's damien, vincent, uh, this is natalia.
- My pleasure. - Hi.
How's the surf?
The surf's always good somewhere in oahu
Your suite's ready.
Hey, vincent, you guys still doing those shark feeding tours?
Unfortunately we had to stop. There was too much liability.
Well, liability is killing fun everywhere, man.
Her fiancé is staying at your hotel?
Actually, it's vincent's hotel. We don't discriminate against guests
not even against obnoxious fiancés.
- Hey. - You, my man, are late.
Yeah, sorry.
Can I get a water ?
Nicole's boyfriend is coming. Commercial real estate mogul.
I bet he brings his laptop to the beach.
Dude, I don't care if he brings his gulfstream to the beach. As long as they keep the public groping to a minimum.
Anyway, it's my night off, what do you say we cue up some jumbos at the house, watch the fight?
Not gonna happen. Chris, dinner, remember?
What are we having ?
We're not invited.
- It's the big night, frankie. Right. - Shut up.
You better keep us around, you know? Just to make sure chris is a gentlemen.
Thanks, but I'll be all right.
Stay pure.
You okay?
Yeah. I'm great.
Okay. Well, hit the chair, then. Let's go, battle stations.
According to the national weather service, more of the same.
I'm sorry, dr. Birtwhistle.
We need clear skies. The spaski meteor shower won't display like this for 70 years.
Well, would you like the same rooms in 2074?
- How's it going? - Forget the meteor showers, we've got a bad moon rising.
They came from all over the world to see shooting stars.
Well, we can't control the weather.
- The last concierge could. - Fine, then. Teach me how.
I'll do whatever it takes to satisfy management.
Okay, fair enough.
Keep our geeks happy. They've been coming here for 15 years. I want them to come here for another 15.
Keep the guests happy, I'm happy.
How much?
- Hey, how was the snorkeling? - Great.
Saw some radical sea sponges.
Uh, espresso with a vodka sidecar.
You know, I want to surf sunset. I hear that wave is pretty crazy.
Sunset's more than crazy, it's vicious.
I crowd-surfed 120,000 ecstasy-crazed kids at wembley stadium. I think I can handle it.
Sorry, man, it's against hotel rules to take guests off the property.
Well, rules never worked for me.
Keep it.
So, what's the bad news ?
2,100 bucks! There was no way I did that much damage.
And yet, surprisingly close to kurt's original estimate.
He's abusing me, frankie.
- Probably. - I'm not paying it.
- I'd rethink that. - Why?
- You think this is fair? - No, it's not fair.
It's the north shore, and psychos like kurt think they're the cops around here.
If you owe money, this turns into a real small island.
I need to get out of here I'm going surfing.
You're halfway through your shift.
- Pete's gonna cover me. - Not a good time to be unemployed.
With what I make an hour, what's the difference?
Hey, can we help you with that ?
Oh, no, but thanks, I like to carry emma.
- Emma's a bike. - Ah, your bike has a name
- I know, kind of weird. - No, not really.
Actually, my three-wood's name is tammy.
- You're a triathlete? - I'm just beyond weekend warrior hoping to break 13 hours.
Hoping to break 13 hours?
Man, that is just wrong. Anyway, welcome to paradise.
Yeah, I am in paradise.
Yeah. I mean, till they kick you to the curb.
Hmm ?
Eh... we had a thing, you know? I mean, it's over. She's now engaged to some knob from new york city.
Morgan !
- I missed you. - I missed you.
Jason, this is...
the knob from new york city
Nicole's told me you're a great guy.
I graded on a curve.
Wow, um, I'm gonna let you two, you know, be alone, so, uh, aloha
Howzit? Pretty nasty out there.
- Doesn't look too bad. - Oh, believe me, it's nasty out there.
Right, critter?
Yeah, definitely dangerous. Someone could get hurt.
- Yeah, you could break your board. - Or your jaw.
- Guys, look... - No, you look.
If you want to surf here again, you'd better pay kurt.
Got that?
Yeah.
I just talked to dr. Birtwhistle. He said if it's not clear tonight,
they may check out and try another island.
- "They," as in 120 guests? - Yes.
They can't do that. There's a cancellation policy.
- I figured. - Okay, well, I'm going to be out tonight, but reachable.
Make sure you call me if he's serious.
Of course
Hey, baby
- Hey. - Nicole's got a nice job, don't you think?
Whoosh in, hand off problems to employees whoosh out and grab a nooner with boyfriend.
Listen, hey, I'm having chris over for dinner.
- The guy with the face? - Yeah.
This is starting to feel real like it could actually go to the next level.
By "next level," you mean horizontal?
- I don't know...maybe. - Just be careful.
You don't look like a guy like chris and not break hearts.
there you go.
Kurt's got me barred everywhere the pipe, waimea, sunset
- Ah, I told you, it's a small island. - If I can't even surf, what am I doing here?
What about your parents? Would they give you the money?
Oh, yeah, yeah, my parents are stoked about me pursuing the surfing thing over my dad's roofing business.
I can give you a little, but I'm on the wrong side of the bar to give it all to you.
I just worked my way into the pecking order at pipe. Now, this was going to be the year
I blew some minds out there. Maybe even made some money surfing,
and instead, I'm stuck out here on the beach...
all because I forgot to buckle a stupid strap.
Hey, shouldn't you, uh, be sitting in a taller chair?
- I'm on a break. - You're always on a break.
Man, nicole's fiancé sure got your panties in a wad.
Careful.
Hey, frankie.
Hey... let me talk to kurt tonight.
We have some history.
Oh, man, frankie, that'd be great.
Jason looks serious, man. Go.
Hey, nicole. Your fiancé seems like a, uh... he's a cool guy.
- You guys make a nice couple. - Thanks. He had a tough act to follow.
Nicole !
Hey.
How far did you go?
64, with the detour.
I, I got lost. do you bike?
- No, jason's a runner. - Great. How about you showing me some mountain trails?
- I'll keep up. - Oh, he's working, darling. He doesn't have time.
No. No, it's okay.
- Uh, maybe tomorrow. - Great.
Oh, by the way, karen got a tip on a four-bedroom in honolulu.
No way!
Looking to buy a place?
Well, we're not sure yet, but, um... I only have three hours.
I got us a chopper. We'll be done in two.
- Okay, so, I'll meet you upstairs in five? - Great.
- See you guys. - See you.
Uh, so, I'll see you later.
Wait a second. I, uh, I need to talk to you.
Look, uh, I didn't know that was you.
No, no, no, that's... that's fine, seriously.
Look, I know this has to be weird for you. It's, it's weird for me,
but you seem like a really good guy, and since we both had the good sense to fall for nicole...
we don't have to be enemies, that's all.
Okay
- All right. I'll see you. - See you, man.
Good evening.
It is now.
Mmm, that looks great.
- Can I help? - Sure, toss the salad.
- So, where are your roommates? - Out.
Or dead, if they come home.
So, we're alone.
Yes
Dinner is served.
Well, here's to you.
If she can cook like she looks...
Mj?!
Who's that?
My mother.
I brought some fresh dill
At least give him an island price for the repairs.
Why?
He's a solid guy.
He's a friend, and if he can ever paddle out again, he's got a shot at going pro.
And that's what I need...another pro surfer.
Every year they come from the mainland thinking they're the next kelly slater,
and every year, the lineups get more crowded, and I get less waves.
So, why should i give him a break?
Because someone gave you one.
Hey, I earned it, frankie...
and so will he.
Now, the haole kid needs to give me my money,...period.
Bro, who are you calling haole? You were born in santa monica
I grew up here. I didn't forget my past.
Meaning I have?
You've been working too long at the hotel, franklin.
No, I think you been living in the swamp too long.
Because you and i are old friends, he has till tomorrow night.
But if I don't get my money by then,
it better be 'cause he's on a plane out of here.
Good evening, doctor.
I know the weather stinks, so I thought you'd like to chase away the clouds with some hurricanes.
We're checking out.
There's a cancellation policy.
Our organization's been coming here for 15 years.
Certainly one night won't matter
How about this? You stay here, and if the sky isn't clear tomorrow night,
your whole stay with us is free.
All 63 rooms?
Yes.
Aren't you the concierge?
Only by day. At night, I take on special powers.
Fair enough
Are you insane? Did you check with vincent?
He's on a plane to maui for the governor's dinner.
What about nicole?
Nicole's name isn't on my paycheck.
Sure you don't want some lasagna, mrs. Bevins
- No, I'm stuffed. - How about dessert?
She can't stay.
So, chris, what is it you do?
Chris has his own sports adventure business.
I see. Like those humvee tours of the interior?
Yeah, yeah, I do that.
Hmm. Did you know there's endangered plants up in those valleys?
Mom, don't.
Some of those plants may hold a cure for cancer, if they're not trampled by tourists.
Mom, really.
- What? - No, it's okay.
Mostly, I do rappelling or water excursions.
On the reefs? Because our reefs are in crisis.
Chris, how about dessert? Mom, it was so nice seeing you.
Good-bye.
Actually, i should go, too. I have a sunrise volcano tour first thing tomorrow.
Thank you for dinner.
Nice to meet you, debbie.
What?
Thanks, jane.
- Hey. - Hey. How's house hunting?
Fine, thank you.
All right, well, I'll see you.
Hey.
Are you going running with morgan tomorrow?
- Apparently, yeah. - Why?
He asked me.
You kiss me this morning, and now you want to be his best man?
What are you trying to do, jason?
I'm sizing up the competition.
You have turned a corner, man.
Ah, what am I supposed to do, cry?
Run along side the train calling out her name?
Pound on the church doors, what?
- Ah, he seems like a cool guy. - Yeah, all right.
Yeah, uh...morgan...he's a really cool guy.
He's worth, what, about $10 million?
Not an athlete. He's a triathlete.
You know what I really hate about the guy
is that he's unhateable. I mean, he-he's being totally cool.
Yeah, that-that sucks. You want my advice?
Uh... why not?
You see that fresh filet of tourist of there?
Yeah.
The one on the left's mine, but why don't you go over
Hey, how'd it go?
I'm sorry, man. I can only get till tomorrow night.
I'm screwed.
Hey, jas, I-I need a raise or an advance of salary.
- Didn't you just get a raise? - Yeah, like, 75 cents.
I'm in deep with kurt.
All right, dude. You need some money?
Stop giving pete all your shifts.
All right, man. I'm going in.
Go get 'em.
Thanks. Yeah, you guys are a big help.
Fine. I'll go it alone.
Gabe...
hi. May I?
Okay, this is going to sound like a line...
okay, it is a line, but I only get to use it once every 70 years, so...
so, uh...
tomorrow night is the spaski meteor shower, and I was wondering
if you would like to come down to the beach with me and watch falling stars.
I'm caroline.
Hi, caroline. I'm jason.
And it is a pleasure to meet you.
You okay?
Hey, I've been looking for you.
I was on a helicopter tour of the island, man.
- How was it? - Boring. It was like commuting.
Well, let me show you something you might like a little more. When me and the boys want to get nutty, we ride this.
Are you kidding me? This giant sausage? It doesn't even have a motor.
And it doesn't turn. You can't duck-dive it. It's impossible to control.
- All right, so... - So you tow it into the surf at high speed
you got a trampoline on steroids.
starting to get thick. How much?
- I can lose my job if I got caught doing this. - Yeah, hit me.
- Two grand. - Two grand?
Does that include a hooker? The sign says 50 dollars.
50 dollars doesn't get you out of the lagoon, brah.
I'm talking about getting radical.
Out there.
Better be good.
- Will be. - All right.
- A $2 million wedding? - Ah, ridiculous, I know.
But you know nicole's father. Can't just be a wedding. It has to put all other weddings to shame.
It has to punish those married before and after us.
Oh. I don't care how royal it is, man. All you're getting from me is a salad spinner.
all right, this is where I stop, brother. I stretch, I go back.
You're going to want to go to the end, make a left, then make a left at the sea.
Just follow the beach.
Hey
Mm... look at that.
- Or you could follow her. - Those days are over for me.
What about that girl last night at the surf hut?
karen's the, uh, the broker who's showing us houses.
Yeah, I figured that was nothing.
Oh. That's not to say I don't have my moments of doubt.
What do you mean?
I don't know. When we were looking at houses, nicole started talking about school districts and,
I don't know, it just sort of hit me.
I mean, marriage is like for eternity.
Yeah, in theory anyway.
- Right. - Yeah, one woman for eternity.
- I don't know. - But, I mean, being with someone like nicole...
..that's got to make the decision a lot easier. - Oh, definitely, but then, uh,...
...you're not the one who's signing up for long-term, are you?
Hey, this is, uh, just between you and me, right?
- Yeah. - All right, so...left at the end, left at the ocean?
All right, see you. Thanks, man.
I can leave a message in your room for you.
Tessa?
Morning.
Did you guarantee 63 rooms to dr. Birtwhistle?
You were on a plane, and it was a judgment call.
- Did you call nicole? - This isn't about nicole. I take responsibility.
- Did you call nicole? - I tried, but as you know,
with her fiancé in town, she's been tough to find.
I rolled the dice, okay? 100 guests were going to walk last night,
...and it can't be cloudy two nights in a row in hawaii. - What makes you so sure?
Well, for one thing, I'm bringing in a kahuna
a holy man that can perform an oli,
an ancient hawaiian chant for clear skies
I know what a kahuna is. And you better have him say a prayer for you,
because if stars aren't shooting up there, someone's getting fired down here.
Hey, where's gabriel?
- Swapped out with pete. - Again?
- Well, where the hell is pete? - The bathroom.
Well, I hope he told everyone not to drown while he's gone.
- Don't you think you've been kind of tough on gabriel lately? - Yeah, he's had a rough couple days.
Yeah? Well, he's not alone.
- Excuse me, miss, what time does the sun set? - 7:40...
three.
Thank you.
Okay, so we have
mai tai, mai tai, mai tai. Let me know if you need anything else.
What can I get you?
How about a hello to start?
I'm really sorry about my mom.
I just...
I wanted the night to go...differently.
Well, it sure did that.
you going to check out the meteor shower tonight?
Yeah.
Maybe we could watch it together?
I'd love to, but I have to lead a star hike up koolau peak.
- Sorry. - Sure. No problem.
Well, I better go.
See you.
No doubt about it, he is hot.
So, how did it go last night?
My mom dropped in on us, and was totally rude to chris.
I think he got a peek into the future and got scared.
You know, what's the saying? You marry the mom.
Sweetie, it'll go better next time.
Just give me the word, and I'll make sure your mom's got something else to do.
Thanks.
Dude, that was not worth two grand.
'Cause we haven't done it yet.
All right, let's go! Ow! Whoo!
That high enough for you, damien?!
Damien?
Where is he?
Oh, he's there!
Damien, damien!
damien, damien! Oh, my god, is he okay?
- yeah - We're getting help, baby.
He's okay. He's okay, but he can't move his arm. We got to keep him immobilized and get help.
- Oh, ba-baby... - It's okay.
- I drilled my head. - We got to get him to the hospital right now.
- If it's a neck injury, don't want him bumping. - Okay, then what are we going to do?
We need a phone.
- Howzit. - Not so good.
- He's hurt. Do you have a phone? - Yep.
- Well, can we use it to call the ambulance? - No.
- What? Why not? - 'Cause I already called 'em.
Thank god. It's all right. We're going to get you there, okay?
Hang on, sweetie.
Hey. How's he doing?
He's all right. They're going to take him in for observation.
Good. Listen, I-I knowthis is a bad time to bring up money...
Yeah. You almost killed him.
- I only did what he asked me to do. - You're not getting a cent, you maniac.
Say, nicole...
- When's your wedding? - We're looking at november.
Be nice if you could move it up. I need your head in the game.
- Excuse me? - Apparently, there was a crisis last night,
And your subordinate tessa gave away 63 free rooms on her own...
because you were off with your fiancé.
Vincent, morgan and I haven't seen each other in months, and tessa knows to call me.
Yeah. Well, I'm very happy for you and morgan,
but here's a novel idea:
Start the honeymoon after the wedding.
- Hey. - Hey, Vincent.
Damien pruitt was fished out off of waimea this morning
How bad?
He bashed his head up. He's going to spend the night in the hospital
Gabriel saved his life.
- Really? - Yeah.
- Was today gabe's day off? - Uh, yeah, must've been.
Good kid.
- Clouding up. - Yeah.
- Hey, uh, frankie, - Where can I find gabriel?
howzit, spacey. Got it?
A hundred and ninety-two.
You're a little short, by, like, $1,800.
- It's the best I can do. - It's not enough.
It's going to take me a while to get the rest.
Thinking maybe, like, a payment plan?
Well, yeah, actually, or maybe I'll get a sponsor or win a surf competition. I mean, there's prize money...
prize money, surfing?
You're going to be lucky if you can still swim.
Leave him alone.
Aw, look at this it's the night clerk from the motel.
Aw, no, franklin, what is it with you and these haoles?
How can you turn your back on your oldest friend?
my friends call me frankie,
and there ain't nothing hawaiian about you, you understand?
You tell your goons to back off. Gabriel surfs where he wants...
or I'll be back.
That was a big mistake.
I got a lot of friends on this island.
I have more.
Oh, man, guys, thanks. Frankie, you were awesome. I owe you.
- Beers are on me. - You're broke.
Right. Well, want to buy me a beer?
I know what happened off of waimea.
You took two guests out there.
Yeah, okay.
Did they pay you?
Come on, you know the rules, gabriel.
This isn't what I want to do, jason.
Well, then quit.
- You can't be serious. - Go.
Go pro. Find another job that's going to help you pay off your debts,
another job that's going to give you flexible hours for morning sessions,
but I don't want that chair empty when guests are around.
If that doesn't work for you...
then quit.
Quit now.
Your promotion worked out great for us.
Gained another boss and lost a friend.
What's going on? Where's morgan?
He's in the pool doing his 3,000 meters.
God, that guy is an animal.
Yes, he is.
Right now, I could use a little less animal.
Is everything all right?
Yeah
I know that face.
Vincent bit my head off today.
Morgan's been quiet ever since we went house hunting.
It might be too much for morgan... too soon...
or, um...
maybe he's not sure.
No.
I think that moving to an island...
and moving in with somebody
that's just a lot to process.
You know, I think that's...
I think that's what he's doing. He's processing.
Once he realizes what a wonderful woman he has...
..he's never going to let you go.
Thanks.
Shure.
Jason?
Uh, caroline, this is nicole. Nicole, caroline.
- She's visiting from palo alto. - Hi.
Uh, so, we'll see you?
Sure. Good night.
Wow, you look great tonight.
Okay, guys, have a good night.
Hey.
I, um, I thought you were leading a hike up a mountain.
They bailed...
so I have an opening for one.
Care to join me ?
