Baywatch Page #4

Synopsis: In sun-kissed Emerald Bay, the vigorous Lieutenant Mitch Buchannon and Baywatch, his elite team of hand-picked and perfectly tanned lifeguards, protect the bay, keeping both sunbathers and beach lovers safe. However, this summer, two new eager trainees will join the demanding life-saving program, as well as an insubordinate former Olympic swimmer, who are all called to prove their worth on the lifeguard towers just on time when a new synthetic street drug begins to infest the Emerald Bay: the flakka. Without a doubt, this calls for some serious undercover teamwork action, as the badgeless heroes in spandex comb the beach for shady newcomers and nefarious entrepreneurs with hidden agendas of their own. Can Mitch's band save the bay?

City council's already

cut our funding again.

What the council wants

and what the bay needs

are two different things.

I found more flakka

this morning.

Clearly, we have

new dealers in the bay.

And this sh*t is like

bath salts on meth.

Wow, flakka?

Good work, Mitch.

I'll turn this over

to the police.

Hey, look.

This new guy of yours?

He's not ready for

this kind of trouble.

He doesn't need to be,

and neither do you. Okay?

It's not your job.

It's the busiest time

of the year.

I need you out there

shining for me.

All right, I'll do it.

Yes!

But he's got to pass

qualifiers first.

You got it.

Which should be easy

considering he's the

"best swimmer in the world."

Right?

Good afternoon,

councilman.

Good afternoon.

So, how is our progress?

Most of the council has

signed off on your terms.

Good.

And the rest are

almost there.

"Almost"?

Ugh. Councilman,

you seem like the kind of

man who knows how to

seize an opportunity.

Me, too.

Back home,

my younger brother was given

the family business to run

when clearly

i had the business gene.

Why? Because I'm a woman.

So I came to America,

the land of opportunity,

because

everything is fair here.

But who's to say anymore?

I have a point to prove,

councilman.

And I'm here to create

an opportunity for you.

I'm sure

they'll come around.

I'm sure they will, too.

Why does she always

look like she's running

in slo-mo?

You see it, too?

She always looks wet.

But not too wet.

Right.

She's the reason

i believe in god.

Hey, how's your dick?

Oh, uh, it's good,

you know...

It's better,

you know...

It's just ready

for action.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

I got my dick stuck

in a chair earlier.

What? You did?

Yeah.

You haven't heard

about this?

Yeah, I heard.

Everybody's heard.

All right.

Welcome, everybody.

You know, baywatch proudly

accepts only one new

recruit every year.

But the good news for you

is that this year,

we've got three open spots.

Now without further ado,

I'd like to turn it over

to the man

who has 500 career saves.

Give it up for

lieutenant Mitch buchannon.

All right,

thank you.

Thank you.

Baywatch is

the elite of the elite.

Our team's commitment

to protecting

the bay at all costs

is the reason why

the single mom behind me

feels very comfortable

letting her two kids run

right into the water

unaccompanied.

Thanks, Mitch.

That's right.

And baywatch works

because we follow rules.

We follow rules because

if we don't, people die.

You work in an office

and you doze off at your desk

one day, no big deal.

You slack off here...

Say it with me...

People die.

So here's the thing,

if you've come to baywatch
