SPF-18 Page #4

I'll make it a warning.

And my Gram says there

are no good people in LA.

Just move the van.

You can park it in the

driveway. I'll show you.

- For real?

- Yeah. Come on.

I really like lifeguards.

You're like the sons of Poseidon.

Hi, boys.

Was that Pamela Anderson?

Welcome to Malibu.

You live here?

Nah, just house-sitting.

Why were you sleeping on the beach, dude?

Uh, short story is, I

wanted to find myself.

Something compelled me to look out here.

The first sight of the ocean and...

I don't know how else to explain it.

It's just where I need to be.

I know the feeling.

...property, sir?

Okay, cool it with the "sir."

Yet, this young man,

who lies upon said sand...

Hey, this is, uh, Ash.

- He's gonna hang out for a while.

- Hey.

Thanks for helping me out back there.

- Namaste.

- God bless.

Johnny, wait up.

Hey. I saw you with your board.

Is everything okay?

- Were you gonna go surf?

- I just... I just need a minute.

- And about last night...

- I know. Can we...

Can we just talk about this later?

All she wanted to say

was that she was glad it was him.

So it kind of looked like

you were giving yourself

a sexy baptism last night.

Uh, not a sexy baptism.

Just the regular ol' baptism.

- Are you being serious?

- Yeah.

I thought it was the perfect time

to renew my faith in the Lord.

If... I knew I had an audience,

I probably would've worn pants.

You're religious.

I take it you're not.

Let's just say, I operate from this...

awareness that we're all just these...

tiny little specks on

this rotating spaceship.

I don't mean to be

disrespectful, but then...

what is the difference between

spirituality and... astronomy?

Found him!

Steve! The lifeguard.

We wanted to find him?

I was pretty happy to see him go.

You noticed how weird

Johnny's been acting, right?

Well, I knew there had to be a story.

So, I googled "Steve,

lifeguard, Malibu, rude,"

but it wasn't until I added Johnny's

dad's name into the mix that I found this.

"Professional surfer Steve Galmarini

has received a three-year

suspension after testing positive

for performance-enhancing drugs.

He is the first athlete to be suspended

under the World Surf League's

new drug testing guidelines."

That guy doesn't need

'roids, he needs a chill pill.

It says that Johnny's dad

was Steve's first coach.

But there was some kind of falling out.

What if it was over the drugs?

It says here that some people think

Johnny's dad died on that

wave because he was out there

trying to win back the community's

respect after the drug scandal.

Yikes.

I can't believe he didn't tell me this.

I'll get it.

There's something I have to give you.
