Baywatch (1989–2001): Season 5, Episode 11 - Silent Night, Baywatch Night: Part 1 - full transcript
In the week before Christmas, Mitch and Hobie take in a strange 10-year-old girl, named Joey, who turns out to be a professional con artist on the run from a local bookie after Joey's mother Kyla, a drifter and professional hustler, has stolen $10,000 from the bookie. When Kyla lands in jail, Joey cons Hobie into helping her raise money in order to bail her out after she misplaces the package with the stolen cash. Meanwhile, C.J. helps out with a local church program for homeless children and is attracted to the young priest, Father Sam Ryan. A lonely and depressed Matt gets into the holiday spirit when a group of dwarfs, led by one named Benny, hang out in front of his lifeguard tower every day and Matt suspects they may be actually be Santa's elves after they decorate his tower for Christmas. Also, Tracy (who is revealed to be hiding some health problems) gets depressed about not having a White Christmas and Mitch decides on a plan to help her out.

-[LAUGHTER]
ALL RIGHT, GOOD WORK, GUYS!
ALL RIGHT, LET'S TAKE HIM IN.
-MITCH: OKAY, EVEN
THOUGH WE ARE WELL INTO
CHRISTMAS VACATION, AS YOU
CAN SEE, SUMMER WEATHER,
WHICH MEANS YOU GOT
WORK CUT OUT FOR YOU.
CHRISTMAS IN CALIFORNIA
MEANS GOING TO THE BEACH.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S HIT IT!
ONLY SEVEN SURFING DAYS
LEFT 'TIL CHRISTMAS.
WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO
WITH ALL THIS STUFF?
WE'RE GETTING SO MUCH
HERE, WHERE DO WE START?
I GOT A LITTLE TINSEL
HERE, AND WHAT ELSE?
AW, IS THAT A SIGH I DON'T HEAR?
I KNOW, HONEY, I KNOW
YOU HAD YOUR HEART SET
ON A WHITE CHRISTMAS
IN CONNECTICUT.
-OH, MITCH, I KNOW
IT SOUNDS RIDICULOUS
BUT I'VE NEVER HAD
A WHITE CHRISTMAS.
I MEAN, MY PARENTS ALWAYS
MADE SURE WE HAD FUN
AS KIDS BUT, CHRISTMAS WAS
ALWAYS ON THE BEACH AND
I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO THROW
SNOWBALLS AND GO SKIING
DOWN A HILL ON A SLED
AND BUILD A SNOWMAN.
WE THROW A PRETTY GOOD CHRISTMAS
AROUND HERE, DON'T WE, C.J.?
-YEAH, THE BEST.
-SEE? THE BEST.
-ESPECIALLY THIS YEAR BECAUSE
WE'VE ORGANIZED A CHRISTMAS
DAY PICNIC AT THE BEACH
FOR HOMELESS CHILDREN
AND WE HAVE A PRIEST FROM
ST. FRANCIS COMING WITH
A BUNCH OF KIDS AND
THEY'RE GONNA DECORATE
THE CHRISTMAS TREE
AT THE HEADQUARTERS.
-AH, C.J., THAT SOUNDS TERRIFIC!
BUT IT'S JUST THAT, THIS
IS PROBABLY GONNA BE
MY LAST CHANCE AT
A WHITE CHRISTMAS.
-DON'T BE SILLY,
THERE'LL BE OTHER YEARS!
C.J.! WE HAVEN'T GOT MUCH TIME
TO GET THIS GIRL IN
THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT!
-WELL THEN, WE BETTER START
GETTING HER IN THE MOOD.
WE HAVE TREES TO DECORATE.
-POPCORN AND
CRANBERRIES TO STRING.
-COOKIES TO BAKE.
-AND CAROLS TO SING.
-WE'RE SWAMPED.
-NOW, THIS MAY
NOT BE CONNECTICUT,
AND I CAN'T PROMISE YOU SNOW,
BUT I CAN PROMISE
YOU A CHRISTMAS
YOU WILL NEVER FORGET.
-MATT, IS EVERYTHING OKAY?
-YEAH.
I JUST DIDN'T FEEL
LIKE STANDING AROUND
AND COMPARING
CHRISTMAS MEMORIES.
-WHY NOT?
-CAUSE I DON'T HAVE ANY.
