Baywatch (1989) s04e19 Episode Script

1 - Some people stand in the darkness afraid to step into the light some people need to help somebody when the edge of surrender's in sight don't you worry it's gonna be all right 'cause I'm always ready I won't let you out of my sight I'll be ready I'll be ready never you fear no don't you fear I'll be ready forever and always I'm always here 'Cause I'm always ready I won't let you out of my sight I'll be ready I'll be ready never you fear no don't you fear I'll be ready forever and always I'm always here -So anyway, there I was standing there minding my own business, completely doing nothing, when Jennifer lays this big old whomping kiss on me.
-Oh my god.
Where? -In the kitchen.
- So I uh I take it you like her.
-Well, I used to like her but now I'm not sure if I like her or if I like her, like her.
-Hmm.
-And then Landon tells me that he likes her, likes her and I told Landon that I don't think she likes him, likes him like she likes me.
-So you probably like her, like her.
-Well, I'm not sure.
How do you tell if you like a girl, or if you like her, like her? -I'll tell you.
I figure it this way.
If you like a girl but you don't know if you like her, like her or you like her, you probably just like her.
Because if you like her like her, you wouldn't be confused as to whether you like her, like her, or just like her.
-What are you talking about? -I have no idea.
- School let out at 3:00, and I picked Jackson up tent and the sleeping bags in the back end of the truck -Look at you sitting down there day in and day out looking at that old postcard like an old scolded dog.
Look, I know you love crystal and I know you love Jackson, but you know what? You can walk up and down that beach to sun up to sunset and you still ain't gon' find 'em.
-Jimmy, you booked me 340 days this year.
That's why I can't find them.
Hey cab, pull over here, would you? This is venice beach.
Will do.
-Hey, meet us at the hotel.
We're gonna rehearse until you get back and hopefully we'll have some luck finding you a new opening act! -So I sure am glad we get to spend your day off together.
-Me too, pal.
So where should we go get something to eat? Hello? -It's her.
-It's who? -Bridgette.
And there's no doubt about it, dad.
I definitely like her, like her.
-You really like her, like her, then I'm gonna duck outta sight, all right? -Hey cool, thanks! -Have fun.
-Hey, bridgette.
-Oh hey, Hobie.
-You're a great player.
-Yeah I'm okay.
- Remember the days.
-Uh I was wondering, you wanna go do something afterwards? -I'm pretty busy these days.
Hi, mister Buchannon! -Hi.
You girls are good.
Hey, you are one terrific volleyball player.
-Oh, thank you! That means so much coming from somebody like you.
-So you guys made plans yet? I'd be happy to chauffeur you around.
Come on, let's go.
-No, bridgette's busy.
-Well actually I'm not all that busy.
-Really? Well, why don't you join the two of us for dinner at our place tonight? -I'd love to.
Um, I'm sure my mom can drop me off.
I'll be there seven-ish? -Perfect! -Bye, Hobie.
-Bye.
-Bye, mister Buchannon.
-Bye.
That's great, huh? We'll double date! -Yeah the only one that's gonna be double dating is you.
She accepted your invitation, not mine.
-I'm going to his house for dinner tonight.
-Jackson? Sorry son, I thought you was somebody else.
Look, have you seen this boy? He's about your age.
-Sorry, mister.
He's not even on a milk carton or nothing.
-Thanks.
-Oh my god.
S-oh my god, it is! -Excuse me, girls, have y'all seen this little boy? - It's Jesse Lee Harris! -That's my son, and his name is Jackson.
-Hey, you're Jesse Lee Harris! -No, I'm-- -oh yes you are! -It's Jesse Lee Harris! You could be the one -Help! -I've got a blitz off tower 14.
Multiple victims caught in a rip.
-Help! -Help me! -Please! Help me! -Help! -Grab the can.
-It's okay, I got you! -Now you all right? -Yeah I think so, thank you.
-Sadie, not now.
-Now why were all those girls chasing you? -CJ.
-Sadie, just give me a minute.
-Look I didn't mean to cause you so much trouble.
But I'm better now, so I'll just be on my way.
-At least you saved your hat.
-That's Jesse Lee Harris! -Who? -He's the biggest singer on the country charts.
- Jesse, please! -Do you think I could get a ride off the beach in your truck? -Yeah, yeah! We have to make out a rescue report so I'll get you back to headquarters.
Hey, Sadie! -Hey, CJ, hey is he still here? -Yes he's making out a rescue report right now in the office.
Now, Sadie, I have an unbelievable idea.
If this guy is as big as you say he is, why don't we just get him to come to denim and diamonds tonight to hear you sing? -Why would Jesse Lee Harris wanna come hear me sing? -I rescued him, I saved his life.
How could he say no? -CJ.
-I'll just look up at him and say-- -CJ.
-What? He's right behind me, isn't he? Hi! -Hello.
Now what's this I'm not supposed to be able to say no to? -Coming to a concert.
Sadie! This is my best friend, Sadie, and she's singing tonight at denim and diamonds and we would love it if you would come.
-Would you? -I'd love to.
-You would love to? Really? -Yes! -Oh, this is so great! This is so-- thank you so much! Oh god, I gotta go practice! Bye! I'll see you later, bye! Thanks, see you later! -That is very very kind of you.
-You're very welcome.
Listen, your colleague says that you help find lost children? -Yeah, that's one of the things that we do best.
-Do you reckon you could help me? -Sure.
Step into my office.
-Crystal and I argued about Jackson being on the road with me so much.
She wanted him to have a normal life, and, you know, she really wanted to have a normal life, too.
And I guess I can't blame her for that, but what I do blame her for, though is for taking Jackson and not telling me where they are.
-You mean you didn't know where they were until Jackson sent you the postcard? -When I got this postcard, I didn't know where they were.
I detoured my trip to Vegas.
But see, I don't have much time.
And Jackson and crystal, they're out there somewhere and I gotta find them.
-Well, do you have a picture of them? -Yeah.
-Well, what we'll do is, we'll make up flyers and pass 'em out all over the beach and the boardwalk and all over venice.
And believe me, if they're in this area, we'll find them.
-Thank you.
All right.

-Go go go go go! Good! Bridgette, why don't you come here and see if you can beat Hobie at this game 'cause I sure can't.
-I'm helping Mitch with dinner.
-It's Mitch now? She moves fast.
-Why don't I take over from here and you go visit with Hobie.
-I'm sorry.
Look at me monopolizing your date.
-You wanna play? It's a new game.
-No, I'll just watch.
-So what are you gonna do? -About what? -Shhh.
- About what? - The crush that bridgette has on you.
Oh no, don't tell me you haven't noticed.
I'm mean, it's lucky we're not talking Mac trucks here.
-What are you talking about? The girl's 14 years old.
That's ridiculous.

I can't wait.
I gotta go call my mom and dad.
Thanks.
-I know we didn't have any luck today finding Jackson and crystal, but we're gonna find them.
I promise.
-I got just so much that I wanna say to both of 'em.
I just pray that I get the chance.
-You will.
-Excuse me, Stephanie.
I promised to save Mitch a dance.
- Uh, where's Hobie? -I don't know.
-I'll be right back.
What's wrong? -Bridgette called me a dork.
-Oh man, I'm sorry.
Forget about that.
Come on, I bought you your favorite, a&w cream soda.
Let's go out and show those guys how to line dance, huh? -All right.
-Hey, Jesse, come on in.
-Hey, Mitch.
-Sadie was unreal last night, wasn't she? -Oh boy she was great.
I was really impressed.
I'll tell you, I don't know how to thank you for this.
But I guess you know, don't you? -Yeah, I know exactly how you feel.
-I miss my boy, Mitch.
Last night seeing you with Hobie.
Man, he's a great kid.
I sure do miss those father-son times.
-Well I guess the point here is, what you're willing to do to get him back.
-You mean like what am I willing to give up? -Yeah, something like that.
-Mitch I worked hard for my singing career.
I mean it's my job to be on the road.
-I don't mean to be out of line here, but I'm familiar with your music.
I mean I got most of your records.
They chart gold, platinum.
You've already made it.
You know, maybe it's not that much to ask for crystal to have you cut down on a few road trips.
-Well we ain't ever been very good at compromising.
-Sit down for a second, will you? You know, Jesse, I wish I had somebody to compromise with.
I mean, I'm doing it all with Hobie.
Dealing with all of his problems, healing all his hurts.
Last night at denim and diamonds, this little girl came up to him and called him a dork.
I would've given anything if his mother could've been there to hold him and comfort him and talk to him.
-Well crystal is a wonderful mother so I guess Jackson's lucky for that.
-He needs a dad too.
Okay partner, what do you say we go hand out some flyers? -And I got some decisions to make.
- School let out at 3:00 and I picked Jackson up I had the tent and the sleeping bags in the back end of the truck built a fire up by the lake watched the sun go down fell asleep side by side on nature's hallowed ground you may not find me every Sunday sitting on the front row pew there are other ways of praying I believe we still get through the quiet of the back woods with a boy and a fishing rod that's just my way of talking to god Waking to a whip-poor-will at the crack of dawn sunbeams shining through the pines before the mist is gone I hear a different drummer when I'm closer to the land sometimes I have to get away to find out who I am you may not find me every Sunday sitting on the front row pew there are other ways of praying I believe we still get through down the road less traveled I let go of a lot that's just my way of talking to god I don't need a cathedral or a tabernacle choir a mountain stream, cold and clean, gets me inspired standing in a rainstorm, now some might think it odd but it's just my way of talking to god it's just my way of talking to god -Excuse me, if you see these two people can you contact Baywatch headquarters? Thanks.
I'm looking for these two people, if you can contact Baywatch headquarters.
-Excuse me, girls.
If you see these people, please call this number.
That's my family.
They're missing.
-Wow.
-Hobie look, we'll have better luck if we split up.
Why don't you go that way and I'll go up here by this bike territory? -All right.
-Crystal? -Oh excuse me but do I know you? -No, I'm CJ Parker, I'm a la county lifeguard, and I'm a friend of your husband's.
Jesse loves you both very very much.
He came here just looking for you guys and we're helping him out.
-Well, thank you, CJ, but I never doubted that Jesse didn't love Jackson.
I mean, what I do doubt is that we come before his career, so if you'll excuse me, I've got to get back to my son.
-It's a great gift to give someone the opportunity to have changed.
Couldn't you give the three of you that gift? -Hi, if you see these people, give me a call.
They're missing.
-Dad? Dad! Dad! Dad! -Hi Hobie.
-Dad! Dad! -Not now, bridgette.
-Dad! Dad! -Jackson! -Excuse me, folks.
-Dad! Dad! Dad! -Jackson! Jackson! Jackson! -Look! -Jackson! Oh my god, son, are you all right? -Dad, I knew you'd come! I just knew it! -Are you okay? What were you doing up there? -God! Jesse! -Crystal! Jackson's all right.
He's okay.
-Mom, I told you dad loves us more than anything.
See, he came for us, mom.
He came! -Are you sure that you're all right, sweetie? -Yeah, I'm great now.
-Crystal, I swore to god if I found you and Jackson, that I wouldn't be mad.
I would just tell you everything that I needed to tell you.
-I guess we can talk.
-Oh, great.
-Yes! Yes! -Hobie? You were great.
I can't believe how brave you are! I'm sorry about what I called you last night.
-Bridgette, do you have a quarter? -Sure.
-Go call somebody who cares.
-Well that is one beautiful family, wouldn't you say? -I'd say so.
-Mitch, this is my wife, crystal.
-Hey, crystal.
-Hi, Mitch.
-And this is my son, Jackson.
-Jackson, now wait a minute.
You're not the guy who jumped off the pier.
Was that you? -Yeah, that was me.
-Jackson, did you know that Hobie is Mitch's son? -Oh, he and CJ saved me.
-No more swan dives off the pier! Got it? -Deal.
-All right.
-Hey Jesse! Jesse Lee! Hey, Jackson, man, I'm so glad to see ya.
Hey, crystal.
Man, I am so happy you got your family back and you know what, bus is getting ready to roll and we've got a schedule to keep.
-Yeah, well I got a schedule of my own to keep like starting by thanking my friends.
Mitch, CJ, I don't know how to thank you guys for helping me gettin' my family back.
-Just seeing you all together's all the thanks we need.
Our pleasure.
-I promised you, didn't I? -Yeah you did.
And I made some promises to myself too and to crystal.
'Cause from now on, things are gonna be a whole lot different, because I'm gonna be on the road a whole lot less.
And at home in Nashville a whole lot more in the recording studio.
-We are? -And I postponed Vegas for a week.
-You didn't! -I did.
-But dad, all your fans will be disappointed.
-Disappointed? They'll riot! -Well they're just gonna have to understand because me and my family are going on a vacation.
-Oh dang, why argue when life ends up like a country song? -All right, I want all you folks out there to get ready for America's number one country music singer, Jesse Lee Harris! -Thank you very much! Thank you.
Thank you for being here.
I want you to have a good time tonight and I want to thank the Baywatch lifeguards because they put me and my family back together.
Hadn't been for them, they wouldn't be here, I wouldn't be here, and I want to dedicate this song to my son Jackson and to my wife crystal.
Are you ready, guys? -Yes.
- Well I think I get the message I'm not deaf and I'm not blind but the signals that I'm getting they caught me by surprise and it seems that you decided to just get up and go but if the reasons here are oh so clear there's one thing I got to know where was I I wish I knew you say it's all over baby I'm confused well wasn't that you in my bed it must've been all in my head when love finally said goodbye where was I well where was I I wish I knew and you say it's all over -Thank you, thank you!
