While you're at it, I like that rock too.
- No.
That's my wedding ring.
-Oh -Well, I guess you're just having a bad day.
How did it go? -Couple of thousand in cash, and some jewelry.
-Not bad.
The lady here wanted us to keep these safe for her.
-The buyer wants us to meet him in the outer passage.
Let's hustle or we'll never make the island by dark.
-The buyer? You're taking our boat? We can't leave the grand prize behind.
-What about us? -What's this? $36 for donuts? -Got another missing persons for you.
Third one this month.
-It's beginning to look like the Bermuda triangle out there.
-More like piracy.
-Once a cop, always a cop, huh? This isn't your old downtown beat, you know.
-Come on, don't rub it in! It's been a bad month for beach cops, and this isn't helping.
We've got rich people missing, expensive boats disappearing, all of them launching from the same Marina.
We've got pirates, Mitch, mean ones.
Have your guys keep their eyes open, all right? -You got it.
-Thank you, sir.
Why don't you do something about that beach? Be a lot nicer place if you figure out how to get rid of all that sand and water.
Get you some concrete, a little asphalt.
Pave that sucker over.
Use your rear view mirror once in a while for something besides checking your lipstick! -I'm sorry.
You should have told me you were back there.
-I screamed my lungs out, I even banged on the truck.
-What are you doing? -I have to clean it.
-The hell you do! A little tape will be just fine.
Do it! -You're lucky this is not-- -I'm lucky? -Hey! What's going on? -She backed over my foot! -He wasn't paying any attention! -Put her on one end of the beach and me on the other.
-Fine with me! The farther away, the better.
-Enough.
I get the picture.
What are you doing? Come here.
You can't tape that up sand and all.
I don't know what it is between the two of you, but it's wearing awful thin.
-Ouch.
-So do me a favor.
Take the morning off.
Get some rest.
-Wait.
Come on, we'll work this out really.
-Come back at two o'clock.
I'm putting you on the 24 hour shift together.
-With her? -With him? -Twenty-four hours? -Overnight? -Uhm.
Side by side.
On patrol.
Think of everything you'll get to share.
Sunrise, sunset, breakfast, dinner.
Finish cleaning the wound.
Change the dressing every twelve hours.
Remind him.
Come here.
That's good.
All right -oh, no.
-Hey, guys, wait up.
-Here comes your geeky girlfriend.
-She's not geeky and she's not my girlfriend.
-Tough break back there.
You were really creaming me.
-That was pretty close.
-What're you doing today? -Just hanging out.
-They're to my dad's boat.
-No way! -We're going fishing tomorrow.
My dad told me to gas it up.
You're up for a cruise around the Marina? -What are you doing here? I thought your lawyer was stopping by this afternoon.
-He is.
But he's going to tell you something I thought you should hear from me first.
-You're going to Columbus.
-Next month.
Look, this is a great opportunity for me.
I'll be right there, in company headquarters.
I'll be in charge of an entire division-- -I'm not gonna stand by and watch you move my son half way across the country! -Our son! I only have his best interest at heart.
-Come on, Gayle! This isn't about his best interest at all! -Can you really blame me for wanting something more for him than a life at the beach? -Hobie.
-It's okay.
I just came in to Forget it.
-Ready to hit the Marina? -The Marina is not far enough.
The moon is not far enough.
-How about the channel islands? They far enough? -In your dad's boat? -Why not? We'll be back by dark.
He'll never know.
-All right.
Let's do it.
- Me and my friends are the lucky ones yeah, yeah, yeah all the time in the world and we're on the run yeah, yeah, yeah nothing is wrong when you're feeling young sailing on through just to live it up and there's nothing we can't do we got no destination oh, oh I'm feeling ready, I'm feeling ready we got no destination oh, oh it's the beginning, just the beginning we got no destination oh, oh I'm feeling ready, I'm feeling ready we got no destination oh, oh it's the beginning, just the beginning Sailing on through just to live it up sailing on through just to live it up sailing on through just to live it up sailing on through just to live it up sailing on through just to live it up sailing on through just to live it up sailing on through just to live it up sailing on - that was hard.
- That was nothing.
One time at summer camp, I was climbing a mountain when all of the sudden one of my support lines gave way.
I never knew you went to summer camp.
It was more of a survival camp.
Very few people even know I went.
Anyway, there I was, suspended a hundred feet in the air, dangling from a rope over a rocky gorge.
-Are you sure you're not making this up? -As sure as I'm standing here.
Anybody hurt? I'll live.
-This is cool! It reminds me of journey to the center of the earth.
-This whole island reminds me of predator.
You ever seen that? -No.
-Uh-uh.
-It was awesome.
-Here we go.
-Some guys in the jungle were being hunted down by this vicious monster.
It was brutal, this thing was a killing machine.
-Aren't you the same guy who walked out of teen wolf? Low blow, Hobe.
I was a kid then.
Anyway, these guys knew they were being stalked, I mean -Oh! -Who do you think he is? -I don't think we should stick around to find out.
-What's this? Look.
-Wow.
-We better get back to the boat.
-Yeah.
Definitely.
They'll probably start by offering visitation for a month in the summer and a week at Christmas.
-Forget it! That's ridiculous.
-It's called negotiating.
It's the way I'd open if I was handling Gayle's end of it.
Mitch, do yourself a favor and be cool today.
It's important.
-Fine.
Why are you dressed like this, anyway? You're my lawyer.
Shouldn't you be in a suit? -You put me on duty this afternoon.
-Oh.
-Hi, Craig.
Mitch.
-Hi.
-My lawyer is not here yet? -No.
Come in and sit down.
-Have you seen Hobie since this morning? -No.
I'll talk with him tonight.
He'll be okay.
-You're actually going to wear a swimsuit to this meeting? -Bucannon.
Yes, Mrs.
Drake.
You're sure Hobie was with her? Give me a description of the boat.
All right, don't worry.
I'm sure they are okay.
I'll get back to you as soon as I gear anything.
Sid! -What's the matter? -Get this to the coast guard right away.
Hobie and a couple of friends took a boat out of the Marina this morning.
-They what? -It belongs to the father of one of the kids.
-How could you let him do something like this? -I didn't let him do anything, okay? They just took it.
-I'll call this in right away.
-Is he in any kind of danger? -He knows his way around a boat.
-I didn't ask you that! -You're acting like this whole thing is my fault! -I'm gonna get a rescue boat and see if I can find them, take a look around.
-Thanks.
-Somebody's been here.
-Not too long ago.
There's still gunk left in this can.
-Hey, get a load of this.
-Same kind of bullets that killed the guy in the cave.
They fit! -Hey, guys, come here.
They were in that coffee can.
-I bet they were stolen.
-I don't like this island that much anymore.
-Yeah.
I stopped having fun a while ago.
Better take these to the police.
-Let's get out of here.
-What're you doing? -Driving.
-You gotta be kidding me.
After what you did this morning? -This time, don't leave your foot under the tire.
Just because you're a guy, you think you're in charge.
Well, I've got news for you, bucko! -Fine.
You drive.
-Fine.
I will.
-Try not to squash anybody.
Hey! What are you doing? - A million faces shining in the sun as we drive on down pacific highway I'm only thinking about one I can feel the temperature rising when you look my way maybe today's our lucky day if we reach for a shooting star we can find what we're looking for you and me hold the keys to our hearts if we want them you can tease but it's only a game and I'm loving the way that we play it are you playing me? If we reach for a shooting star we can be heroes together I'm never lost when I'm there where you are so I'll stay here forever let me hold you when we're searching for love and we'll find that it's better when you and I are side by side like the sun will set we can change the tide 'cause we're shooting stars you and I you and I -the boat is gone! Tell me this isn't happening.
-I thought you set the anchor.
-I thought you set it.
-My father is going to kill me.
-Your father? What if the guys at that camp come back? -Okay.
Let's drag the dinghy out of sight, just in case they do.
We'd better start gathering firewood.
-What do we have for food? Candy bars.
-Swell.
-What's under there? -Probably just some wino bedding down for the night.
Hey.
Hey, come on out of there.
There's no camping on this beach.
-Oh -Uh we didn't know.
-We're from Iowa.
-Rob hedgerton.
And this is my girl, Liz.
Seems like we had a little problem.
We really don't have anywhere to stay tonight.
-We were robbed.
Our plane tickets, our money, our clothes.
And somebody didn't want to buy traveler's check.
-Can't you call home and have your parents wire you money? -Well, I'm afraid not.
My parents are travelling in Europe and well her parents-- -hate him, and didn't want me to come out here.
-Sorry, but you can't stay on the beach.
- Excuse us.
-What are we going to do? -We cannot just throw them out on the streets.
-Sure we can.
Watch.
Look at them! They'll never see morning if we send them into venice.
-I'm so tired.
-Why don't we let them stay at headquarters tonight? -Are you crazy? -Who's gonna know? -I'm driving.
-Oh.
-Are you gonna get in trouble when we get back? -What do you think? -I'm gonna get killed.
-My parents will get mad at me and tell me how disappointed they are with me And then they'll start blaming each other.
All they ever do is fight.
-About what? About me And who I'm going to live with when my mom moves to Ohio.
-I hope she leaves you here.
-I just wish she wouldn't even go.
-You're not the only one whose parents argue.
My house is like Friday night at the fights.
-What do they fight about? -You name it.
"You spend too much.
" "Yeah? Well, you drink too much.
" "Your brother is a bum.
" "Oh, yeah? Well, your sister is a pig.
" They fight like that right in front of my brother and me.
Like we're not even there.
-Do they still love each other? -I guess so, but I'm not sure they really like each other.
-We better get some rest.
Here, it'll probably get a little cold tonight.
-Thanks.
-As far as I can tell, you haven't done a dammed thing! Well, they didn't come back, did they? That's a whole afternoon wasted.
You guys have enough choppers and spotter planes to cover the whole damn coast, but you waited until 6:30 to put out a bulletin, now it's pitch-black dark outside! First thing in the morning doesn't cut it! Don't tell me to calm down! I've got three kids on a boat all alone with some criminals running around out there! You bet we'll talk in the morning.
We'll talk about this for a long time to come.
I thought I told you to go home.
-Somebody's gotta stay with the radio.
-Somebody will.
Here's the tower assignments.
-Okay, no problem.
I'll get on it first thing.
-See you, Craig.
-Yeah.
-Mitch.
-Yeah.
-Hey.
-What? -You oughtta give it a break, lieutenant.
-Yeah, give it a break.
If I do that, I'll go crazy.
I'm sorry, man.
Garner's gotten me a little freaked out.
I keep thinking about those missing boats.
-Did you say anything to Gayle about it? No, I haven't yet.
They are all right, right? I mean The kids just had an engine trouble, right? -Right.
Mitch, go get something to eat.
I'll man the fort.
And take Gayle with you.
I'm sure she's going just as crazy as you are.
-Yeah.
Thanks.
-I keep thinking that They'll float by and If I turn away, nobody will be here to see them.
Doesn't make any sense, does it? -No, no.
It makes a lot of sense.
He ran away, didn't he? After this morning -Yeah.
I guess maybe he did.
-If anything happens to him-- -they' re good kids, smart kids.
They can take care of themselves.
-If they are so smart, what are they doing out there? What are we supposed to do? Wait for them to come to us? And don't tell me it's too dark to do anything else, I already know that.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to lash out at you.
-It's gonna be a long night.
What do you say we go down to the Marina and get a boat? -Really? Go look for them tonight? -Makes as much sense as staying here.
Thanks.
-Shouldn't we Bury them with the others? -You want to carry them all the way up there tonight? -What was that? -I don't know.
It's probably nothing.
I'll go check it out.
You worry too much.
Shut up and dig.
Then let's get out of here.
-What is it? -Shh! We don't want them to hear us.
-Who? -The two guys on the beach.
-What's the matter? -They have shovels with a couple of bags with bodies in them! They were digging graves.
-We have to wake Clark up.
-No, let him sleep.
-We have to get out of here! -Where would we go? -Okay, it's a big island.
We'll be okay.
There are places to hide.
-I want to go home.
-Me too.
We should have dug deeper.
You're never happy, are you? I didn't want to kill them in the first place.
Yeah, you never do.
You were going 40 miles an hour! What if you bounced them out of the back of the truck? -We would've gone back and got them.
-You're really a pleasure to be with tonight.
-Well, I'm just not cut out for babysitting.
Why don't you put hansel and gretel in there? I'm gonna check on Hobie.
-So, how do you like California? Besides having all your stuff stolen and everything.
-Well, it's different.
-We'd never have Mexican food before.
-We threw up all night.
-That was when we were robbed.
-What did the police say? -They were very helpful.
They told us to buy traveler's checks from now on.
-I got your traveler's checks.
-And they said next time we shouldn't leave our hotel room unlocked.
-You can't stay here.
Hobie and his friends are still missing.
Some of the guys are organizing a search to go out in the morning.
-What do we do with them? -I guess they come with us -Hold me.
-None of this would have happened if we'd stayed together.
-Oh, come on.
We don't know that.
-It's been so hard on him.
-The way our marriage was going, it might have been harder for him if we hadn't separated.
- Oh.
Sometimes my mind gets so clouded, I can't remember why we ever did -Gayle, if I wasn't a lifeguard, would it have made a difference? -Who knows.
All I know is that right now, I'm sure glad that's what you are.
They were right down there.
Two of them with a couple of bodies.
-Pour out the soda.
-Why? -Just do it.
-What are you doing? -Sending a message.
Who's got a pen? Pencil? -That's the lamest idea I've ever heard.
-Here.
-It's lipstick.
Don't say it.
-"Stuck On Santa ynez island.
" Where are they? -Hey, man! What the hell's the matter with you? -Put them back! -I didn't take them, man! Somebody's been snooping around here.
-What if they are still here? -Those jewels better be the only thing they found.
-Come on.
-Okay.
-Screw the top back.
-Oh.
Let me throw it, Hobe.
I've got a better arm.
-Uh-oh.
-Let's get out of here! -Up there.
Let's go.
-Shh.
-That looks really comfortable.
I'm beat.
Is it my imagination, or are we getting along better this morning? -It's your imagination.
We're just too tired to fight.
-Yeah.
You're probably right.
-It'd be nice to be in love, wouldn't it? I'd be nicer to be in love and remember the travelers' checks.
-Okay.
This is where we are at this point.
The coast guard's has two choppers working north to south.
They're got a cutter from point dume to anacapa island.
-Is avalon harbor doing anything on this? -I talked to bon ray in Catalina last night.
He's got two boats circling the island this morning.
We need you to go through the channel and check the smaller islands.
I know Santa Cruz pretty well.
I'll take a rescue boat out there.
-Great.
I'll go with you.
The rest of you, pair up and head out.
It's gonna be a quiet day at the beach and the chief has given us the extra boats.
Guys, hold up a minute, would you? I We really appreciate what you're doing.
It means an awful lot to us.
Don't worry, boss.
-How are you holding up? - That was quiet a showing.
-Hobie's part of the family.
We're not gonna let anything happen to him.
-Mitch, I've got a chopper waiting.
There's room for one more.
-Thanks.
Stay by the radio with sid.
I'll bring them home.
-I think they're not following us anymore.
-I don't hear anything.
-Get in there! -Don't move.
This way.
They're around here somewhere.
Let's go.
-We have to distract them.
-Here.
I'll throw them off with this.
-Face it, you're no Nolan Ryan.
-Over there.
-Wait! Wait.
-There.
Let's go.
Come on, guys, hurry.
-Come on, man, move it! -Come on, Jenny.
-Oh, no.
-Help, Hobie, help.
-Come on.
Come on, Jenny.
-I'm slipping.
-Hang on.
Come on.
- They're coming.
Now! Yes! Come on! -Easy, easy, champ.
I got it.
Back it off.
-If they had boat trouble, they sure didn't hit water.
-Start the engine.
I'll check below.
They dropped the anchor, but it must not have been set.
-The currents usually run northeast through here.
-They were on Santa ynez or capistrano.
Kmf-395, this is rescue baywatch.
Over.
-Go ahead 395.
- We've recovered the boat approximately 12 miles northeast of capistrano.
Boat is empty, but we believe the kids may still be on Santa ynez or capistrano island.
Over.
-Garner and I are off to ynez.
You want to take capistrano? -10-4.
We're on our way.
-I have built a signal fire.
Okay guys, go ahead.
-There they are! -What do you think? -Let's get the boat.
Garner, we've got smoke at one o'clock.
I see it.
-Let's head there to check it out.
What's that? You see that? It's the kids! It's Hobie! - They look fine.
- I'm calling in.
Who are those guys? What are they doing down there? -Let's get down there.
It's heading right at the kids.
He's got a gun! -We have shots fired.
Emergency backup.
Request -this is rescue baywatch, we're on our way.
-Garner, what's going on? Are the kids alright? -Stay there.
-Are you all right? -Yeah, I'm fine.
We have the kids in sight.
They are okay.
Standby.
-We're pursuing a boat heading to the south end of the island.
The gun is empty.
-Keep flying on this side.
Mitch, what are you doing? -Uh! -Ah! Now to the kids.
Kids in sight.
They are all in a boat.
-Thank you.
- I'm sorry.
- I'll never do that again.
I was very scared.
-Sorry, dad.
I wasn't thinking.
I feel awful.
-You know what you did was wrong.
-I know.
I just felt I needed to get away.
-Hobie! -Go ahead, pal.
- I was so worried.
-Me too.
-That kid was really something out there today.
-So as his dad.
-Oh, I almost forgot.
You are fired.
Gayle and I are gonna work this custody thing out ourselves.
No lawyers.
-That's what I advise all my sane clients to do.
That'd be a hundred bucks.
