Baywatch (1989) s02e22 Episode Script

The Summer of '85

Help! "Next on" Baywatch: You are going to meet your first true love, but it's not Shauni.
Your name's Lorna.
I'm Eddie.
I was 15.
That summer was the last happy time I can remember.
Where have you been all night? With Lorna Cosgrove? She's wanted in Massachusetts for the 1985 murder of a man named Phillip Scott.
Eddie, I need to know what you saw that night.
I see danger.
Somebody's gonna try to kill Eddie.
Tiffany, come on down here.
You need a little more oil.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, all over.
Yes, put it all over.
You don't want any on your face.
Okay.
Get it all over.
That's good, that's good, hold it there.
Yeah.
Hey.
Hey! Move! You're such a voyeur.
Hey, Rosalind said there would be oil in my future.
I thought she meant an oil well or something, but I guess this is it.
How could you fall for this fortune-telling stuff, huh? What Rosalind says will happen "happens.
" That's proof right there.
Yeah, right.
Isn't this the same person who said that a rainbow would fall from the sky, hit you on the head, and you'd find gold? Huh? It could happen.
McLain, Tower 12.
Ben, listen, I have an illegal parasailor passing my tower, heading north.
Roger, Shauni.
Let us know if it doubles back.
KMF-295 to Rescue 1.
Roger, Ben, but we're south of Del Rey.
You better get a Waverunner on it, too.
Hit it.
Sam! Hurry! Speed it up! Sam! Help! Help! Sam, stop! Sam! Sam, help! Help! Hey, wait! Get me down! Stop! Help! Help! I can't get out.
Help! You're okay.
You're all right.
You're okay now.
Okay, now, what does this look like to you, huh, Eddie? Like a parasail.
A rainbow-colored parasail and it was on my head.
So where's the gold? Pardon me? Oh, nothing.
I was talking to him.
I thought you said my name.
Why? What's your name? Sarah Gold.
Oh, man.
Because Harvey said that Rosalind needs to hold and object of yours that you're emotionally attached to.
I can't believe that you're gonna drag me to this gypsy fortune-teller.
She happened to predict Harvey's future - pretty accurately - Oh, come on, Shauni.
That was a coincidence.
And how am I supposed to find my baseball when I can't even see where I'm going? That's why I want us to go talk to Rosalind.
- So I can find my baseball? - No, so we can find out where we're going, what our future holds.
I mean, are we gonna be on this boat, are we gonna go to an apartment, are we gonna be able to turn around without bumping into each other? Here is your ball.
Ah, ah, ah.
The mermaid! Oh, oh, oh! Welcome, welcome.
Come right in, eh? Hi.
I'm Shauni, and this is Eddie.
Uh, which one of you is Rosalind? I'm Rosalind.
This is my mom, Bella and my Aunt Flo, and they handle all the business for me, so, if you like what I tell you, you'll work it out with them later.
Now, sit down, be comfortable.
Come on.
Sit.
So, Harvey tells me you're both lifeguards.
Why? Wouldn't you have known anyway? A skeptic, huh? Just shut up and toss me the ball.
Oh, you didn't buy this in a store or anything like that.
You caught it.
Other people wanted it, but you wanted it more.
It was like a foul ball, wasn't it? She needs encouragement.
Encouragement.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, I caught it.
That's right; it was at a Phillies game, but it wasn't a foul ball.
It was a home run by Mike Schmidt.
Yeah, but that's not why you're emotionally attached to it.
Something happened later.
I see a beach somewhere else.
How old are you? 14? 15? Fifteen.
Fifteen? You were happy.
You were more than happy but then you were so "sad.
" Here, let me have your hand.
You read palms, too, huh? No.
I just want to hold the hand that you caught this ball in.
Oh I think maybe we should finish this in private.
No.
No, go ahead.
We don't keep secrets from each other.
Couples shouldn't keep secrets.
Shouldn't keep secrets.
Okay, but I can't promise somebody's not gonna get bent out of shape.
No, that's okay.
Go ahead.
All right, I keep vibing on the same thing, seeing the same image in my head.
You are going to meet real soon, any day you are going to meet your first true love.
What are you talking about? I already have met my first true love.
You know, this is hard for me to say, and I'm sorry, but it's not Shauni.
What? Oh, man, you know, this is a bunch of garbage.
I mean, who are you to tell me how I feel or who I love? Give me back my ball.
Give it to me.
Let's go.
That will be $25, please? Mom, forget the money.
Hey, look, I am sorry but I can only tell you what I feel, not what you want to hear.
Fifteen dollars? Aunt Flo, please.
Look.
Sometimes I'm wrong.
You couldn't say something nice? Hmm? Eddie, come on, throw the ball.
What are you doing? Come on, let's go.
Who is she? I heard she's kept by some rich guy in the beach house down there.
He just comes on weekends.
But you don't know that.
Hey, it's just what I heard.
Here.
Throw me the ball.
Throw it way over my head.
What? Throw it way over my head! Can't you even throw straight? Sorry.
Um my friend's, he's got a lousy arm.
I hope I didn't distract you or anything.
No, you didn't distract me.
Good.
I'm glad I didn't.
Are you busy right now? Uh, busy now? Uh, no, no.
I'm not busy right now, I was just playing catch with my friend, and my friend's leaving right now.
But um, um no, um I'm not busy.
Why? Well, this landscape's coming out much too lonely.
It needs some life.
Maybe if you were in it.
Sure.
Great.
I where should I be? How about over by that rail? And and why don't you grab one of those fishing rods over there? Who knows? You might catch something.
What's your name? I'm Eddie.
I'm Lorna.
Glad you came along, Eddie.
You're gonna make this landscape a lot more interesting.
Hey.
Where have you been? Uh, at Mitch's, feeding Hobie's fish.
When they coming back from their camping trip? Monday.
I was thinking I might stay there until they get back.
Why? Well, if you're supposed to meet your first true love, you know, you don't need me here getting in the way.
It's crowded enough as it is.
You were supposed to say, "No, Shauni, you're my first true love, "and don't believe anything some stupid fortune-teller says.
" I guess your prediction didn't come true.
No, I guess not.
So what about Rosalind's? Has hers come true? I don't know.
Why don't you go back and ask her? Come on, it's my dime.
Let me see her.
I want some of that lemonade.
That's the difference between you and me, Gare.
What, you want her? Yeah, right.
Dream on, Kramer.
Maybe I'll bring you back some lemonade in a couple hours.
Damn.
Uh Hi.
Uh I think I knew you a long time ago.
Summer of '85? Nantucket Island? I've never been there.
It's, uh it's off of Massachusetts.
You had a beach house that summer? I was there staying with some friends of mine.
Sorry.
You must be mistaking me for somebody else.
No.
Your name's Lorna.
I'm Eddie.
I was only 15 at the time My name is Caitlyn, and I've never been to Nantucket.
Honestly, I am not who you think I am.
Wow.
This is really weird.
It's just that I saw you on this boat today, and you had your sketch pad.
You even drew like she did.
Where were you? How could you see what I was drawing? Well, I'm, um I'm a lifeguard, and I was watching my water with binoculars, and there you were.
It wasn't what you were drawing, it was how.
Caitlyn Caitlyn, I have to go to San Francisco tomorrow, so we can leave on Tuesday.
Who's this? This is Eddie.
Eddie.
He's a lifeguard.
Is something wrong? No, no.
No, I just mistook your Friend.
"Friend" for someone I once knew.
I'm sorry.
My mistake.
I'm sorry to bother you both.
Have a good day.
"Friend"? Well, what was I supposed to say? The love of your life.
Excuse me.
How you doing? I'm doing okay.
Some lady told me to give this to you.
Lady? Where? Down by the jetty.
Thanks a lot.
Yeah, sure.
Roger and I have been out of the country for a long time, sailing different ports, different places.
He doesn't know everything about my past.
That's why I lied yesterday.
Then you do remember me.
Of course, Eddie.
That summer was the last happy time I can remember.
Come to the boat tonight.
Hopefully, you can help me put it all back together.
Hi um, when I got home from my shift, Eddie was gone, but I found this hidden behind the bed.
Now, I don't know if it means anything, or Hmm Well, um, aren't you going to look inside? I am.
Oh.
What? - Shh! - Shh! I see danger.
Danger? What do you mean danger? What kind of danger? Mortal danger.
Somebody's going to try to kill Eddie.
I'm glad you came.
Come below with me.
Her name is Lorna Cosgrove.
Shauni, I can't bust someone because a psychic says Eddie might be in danger.
I'm not asking you to bust her.
Just check her out.
You're really worried about this.
Yes, I am.
Look, the police use psychics.
They must believe there's something to it.
Yeah, something, maybe sometimes, but not very often.
Yeah, but what if this is one of those times? Please just see what you can find out.
Here's the license number of the car she was driving.
All right, I'll, uh I'll see what I can do.
Can I have this? Sure.
Thank you, Garner.
Sure.
I got all the stuff up in the attic.
Anything else I need to do? You need to relax.
I have this boxing coach at the Y.
He says the second you relax you know, let your guard down the other guy punches your lights out.
Are you a fighter? No, not really.
It's just sort of necessary in my neighborhood.
Well, it's not here on this island.
This is a place to escape all of that.
Yeah but it's, uh it's my last night here.
Well, hopefully, you'll take home some very good memories.
I hope you still like oysters.
You got a good memory.
I still can't believe you recognized me after all these years.
You're kidding me.
You, um you were my first love.
No, I wasn't.
Trust me.
That wasn't love, Eddie.
That was a boy's fantasy that came true that night because of circumstances.
You mean that phone call.
Among other things.
You ready? Okay, lift your leg up.
Keep it straight, keep it straight.
Straight legs, straight.
Good.
Okay.
Um, why don't we try an arabesque promenade? You just pivot around.
I what? Like this.
Go ahead.
Trust me, Eddie.
This will do more for your balance than any boxing lesson.
I'll be right back.
Are you all right? Eddie.
Eddie.
Yeah? You have to go now.
Mm-mm.
Is it morning? No, it's only 9:30.
Then why do I have to go? Because all good things have to end.
Good night.
I really loved Phillip.
He swore he was going to leave his wife.
That night, he called to say it was over.
He wanted me out of his beach house out of his life.
That night with you was my last night on the island as well.
Yeah.
I really wanted to stay with you that night.
Eddie, I know you used to watch me from the pier.
It's okay.
I kind of liked knowing you were there.
Did you watch me that night after you left? Oh, geez, this is really embarrassing.
Uh Well, for a little while, I Can you remember what you saw? Anything.
Eddie, I need to know what you saw that night.
"Well, when I walked away," I turned back saw you through the window.
I watched you get into bed.
I don't know, I I couldn't leave.
"Did you see anyone" come to the house after I went to sleep? About an hour later.
When he opened the door with his keys, instead of knocking, I figured it was Phillip, and that he must've been the one who called.
That's why you wanted me to leave.
So I left.
Did you see his face? It was dark.
His back was to me.
Then, when he closed the door, I- I took off.
Why is this so important to you? My life depends on it.
Eddie.
No, this is Garner.
He's still not there? No.
We got Lorna Cosgrove's fingerprints off that portfolio.
I've got some information on her.
What? Tell me.
She's wanted in Massachusetts for the 1985 murder of a man named Phillip Scott.
Shauni? Go on.
I'm here.
He was married, having an affair with her.
They found his body in the ocean in front of her house.
He had been strangled sometime the night before.
There were a slew of people with motives his wife, business partners.
But they found evidence at her house that he been there, and got a warrant.
By the time they came to arrest her, she'd already taken off.
She's been on the run ever since.
Eddie.
You're home.
Where have you been all night? Out.
Walking around.
Went to the beach.
With Lorna Cosgrove? How do you know about her? I know more about her than you do.
Were you with her? Yeah until midnight, and then I left.
But you didn't come home.
I know I didn't; I was out thinking.
Like how to tell me that Rosalind was right? That Lorna was your first true love? Come on, I was 15.
That's the same year that Lorna killed Phillip Scott.
What? She's a murderer, Eddie.
Eddie, you said yourself that he called her on the phone to break up with her.
What other motive does she need? Oh, come on, if Lorna's a murderer, why does she need me to remember what happened that night? Because you are the only eyewitness - who can prove she did it.
- Or maybe what I saw could prove she didn't do it.
Where are you going? To get to the bottom of this.
Eddie, please don't leave.
Rosalind said your life's in danger.
Well, if it is, it is.
Don't worry, I'll be back.
What happened that night, after I left? According to you, a man came to my door and entered with a key.
According to the the police, it was Phillip Scott.
Sometime that night, you murdered him, and then tried to make it look like he drowned.
Oh, right.
I strangled him with my bare hands and carried him to the ocean? I mean, Phillip weighed 190 pounds.
They found his wallet in your house the next morning.
Then whoever killed him stole his wallet and his keys and planted it there.
Eddie, you saw me go to sleep.
I never heard anyone come into the house.
Did you tell the police you were framed? Yes and they didn't believe me, so I ran.
Roger helped me disappear.
He's been helping me ever since.
Why didn't you tell the police about me in the first place? I could've helped you testify.
And have it come out in court that I seduced a 15-year-old boy? Eddie I was so lost.
And you were so sweet.
People wouldn't have understood what happened.
If Phillip Scott wasn't the man I saw, then I can still help prove that you didn't do it.
That's what I was hoping.
L- I keep seeing Eddie on a stage.
Center stage.
Where? It's not a theater.
I don't know.
I see the number two.
Why are you looking at me like that? That number is not a good number for you.
Great.
When he closed the door, his face was in the light for a second; I I must have seen it.
I'll be right back.
What? You want me to leave? No.
Eddie, you remember Roger.
Yes, I do.
Well, I just told him everything about that night.
You didn't have to tell him about that night did she, Roger? You were the one who came to her door.
He doesn't know what he's talking about.
I saw your face through the glass.
Lorna You You killed Phillip, didn't you? Help me! Whoa! Apparently, Roger was Phillip Scott's silent partner.
He was jealous of everything the man had, so he finally murdered him and took it all, including Lorna.
Do you still have to arrest her? Well, there's still the warrant out, but Eddie's testimony should get her off and put old Roger away.
You know, I did a lot of drawings that summer but yours was the only one I kept.
Eh, the only thing I kept from that summer is my baseball.
I guess we both knew it was a very special time.
One I'll never forget.
You'd better not.
Ready? You still make the landscape a lot more interesting.
You take care of yourself.
You, too.
Harvey, what's the matter with you? I got "two" broken ribs from trying to save Bruce Hauer the II from the dock where the "Senter Stage II" was moored.
From now on, the only thing I want to know for sure is my past.
So, what do you think the future holds for us? Well, we're just gonna have to wait and see.
No predictions? Shauni, I, uh I don't want to think about the past.
I don't want to think about the future.
We're together now, and that's all that matters.
Hmm?
