Deadliest Catch (2005–…): Season 19, Episode 6 - Blood and Treasure - full transcript

When Sig and Mandy disagree on strategy, Clark finds himself caught in the middle. Wild Bill comes down on inattentive deckhands as Linda gets too close to danger. Keith pulls the Wizard alongside Saga and unleashes unexpected bad...

No!

Is it going that fast?

Going over!

Right.

The race to the dock...

We'll put them right, boss.

Everybody stay on your toes.

Everybody stay on your toes.

Let's go!

Watch out.

Hey, control the crane!



- It's banging the house.
- You.

Hey! Get the out
of my wheelhouse. Now!

Whoa!

Hey, Bill,
flood going on down there.

Can sink the boat.

Watch out!

The fleet, we're in a
real precarious position.

The fleet, we're in a
real precarious position.

Different ball game.

Sixty-five miles
northeast of Dutch Harbor...

We have no other options.

On the Wizard.

We catch them fast,

or we're out of business.



Before delivering in 72 hours,

Captain Keith Colburn
braces falling dock prices.

Captain Keith Colburn
braces falling dock prices.

His sights set on
the first 60 pots

soaking on the southern
edge of the grounds.

Come on... Something,
man. Something.

What do we got?

Man!

No bueno.

Nothing.

Blank.

These plants need a soft bottom.

These plants need a soft bottom.

No. Terrible!

All I know is there's some
crab here somewhere.

I don't see one boat
within 20 miles of me.

Jake's fishing black cod.

I could use the information.

Yeah, sorry guys, you got
about three miles, okay?

Jake's fishing here.

Looks like he's just getting
ready to haul a string.

I just want to get a report.

Roger!

So I chose to be on the
Wizard with Captain Keith.

I was on Jake Anderson's
boat, on the Saga.

That guy's a sour grape.

Jacob, what the.

Did you not watch the
anchor cable?

I got to sit and draw a
list with crayons, I guess.

I got to sit and draw a
list with crayons, I guess.

Three miles to the east...

I'm getting big fish.

There's just not enough.

On the Saga.

I've got 500,000 pounds

of Sean Dwyer's
black cod quota to fish.

Of Sean Dwyer's
black cod quota to fish.

And he just purchased
another 500,000 pounds.

So this is the fun.

Which totally
gives you an ulcer.

What do we got?

With all the illegal
fishing, it's flooding the market,

now I have to do the same
thing, but twice as fast.

It's not what I wanted to see.

Jake!

Jake!

Hello, Jake.

Roger, roger. What's
going on, Keith?

And sorry to come
so tight on you.

I just want to see
what you're doing here.

I'm getting
my butt kicked down here.

Wizard doing over here?

Just creeping around.

That boat is huge.

Come here to terrorize us.

Yeah. I've seen a
few more numbers.

Yeah. I've seen a
few more numbers.

Opies, bairdis and we're
seeing the tanner deeper.

What direction are you hauling?

To the northwest.

- Hey, get out of there. Get out of there.
- Hey!

Get out of there.

Get out of there.

Who's yelling on deck?

That was Shyanne.

She's yelling at her brother.

You're ever here like...

You die in a second.

My temper hasn't been
so good this season.

You want to know why?

I got Jacob Hutchins on here.

Guy has an attitude problem.

Yeah, I seen it.

He didn't like me
for some reason.

You know how hard
it is to get crew these days.

I know that.

From Jake to me, he should
have apologized a long time ago.

From Jake to me, he should
have apologized a long time ago.

Trash talk me throughout
the whole industry.

But now I really want to that.

No, we're working
through it, you know?

Every boat's different.

Hey, you, Jake!

You!

Hey, get your ass in here!

The, get the
out of my wheelhouse.

Now! move it!

Now! move it!

That's a captain
you're yelling at.

That was that Jake kid.

Did you hear that?

What would you do if one of
your crew just ran out the back door

and starts screaming at
a captain on another boat.

I think the question
is, what're you going to do?

Seventy miles northeast...

No!

Where's all the crab at?

On the Northwestern,

Nineteen.

Nineteen little crabbies.

I'm trying to get
everything done,

I'm trying to get
everything done,

in a timely fashion.

A month into his fall season,

with 85% of his eastern
bairdi crab quota to catch,

Captain Sig Hansen hauls
a string set on a trench line.

No!

Seventy-five fathoms below.

The prices were high.
Now they are dropping.

So, that's a rough one,

you know, it's a
hard pill to swallow.

I was assuming we were
going to get the top price ever.

I was assuming we were
going to get the top price ever.

Clark, can you start some
food on for everybody?

Roger!

Thanks.

Hey.

How's it going?

It's just not going at the
rate that I wanted. You know?

I was looking
at the bairdi survey.

Sixty-fourth fathoms
look productive.

Sixty-fourth fathoms
look productive.

I'm tracking it on VMS

and there is a 64 fathom contour

just to the north of you.

You're not going to
find crab on a survey

that's been done months
ago in the summer.

Well, whatever
hooks crab on the boat

is good for everyone.

I'll call you later.

All right, bye.

I like the fact that she's
getting more involved.

But the reality is,

usually the crab that are found
on the surveys, move down.

We got to figure out
where to put these.

Okay...

I want to lay them exactly...
exactly on the 70th fathom-range.

Boy.

Wait a minute, 64 fathoms...

And that's off on...
It's off the cape.

That's a trench
with a soft bottom.

I mean, that's what bairdi like.

If you're going to find school.

If you're going to find school.

It's not the first time
I've been wrong, so...

If it looks good, we both win.

Babe, what's up?

Hold on real quick.

Hold on real quick.

I want to try a survey depth

that looked good
on the bairdi survey.

Is he talking to
Mandy down there?

When are you setting next?

I don't know. We got to eat.

Then we got a
little bit of a run.

But, I think, we're going to set

when it gets close to dark.

So you're
going to have to do it.

So you're
going to have to do it.

He's going to find
out if I set pot somewhere.

He's got to be able
to pick them up.

Well, these guys got to
remember they're on a boat.

If you're going to go by
your hunch and your gut,

that's awesome. Do that.

But stepping in here,

kind of, puts me at odds.

And so, that's the dynamic
Clark doesn't understand.

We go way back.

I'm just a little bit nervous

because I know Sig.

Don't worry about Sig.

Don't worry about Sig.

What's going on here?

- Did you move this cursor?
- I did.

I'll just move the boat myself.

Where the heck is my boat?

Okay.

I know what Mandy's thinking.

Poor bastard.

You know he won't
be happy if these pots don't hit.

Yeah?

All right, bye.

My son-in-law's taken
advice but it's not from me.

Well, if that's the case, I
think I got something for Clark.

Fifty miles northwest...

All right, here
we go. First pot's coming up.

Aboard the Summer Bay...

We're going to put this one on.

It's kind of laying
in the dead, so...

It's kind of laying
in the dead, so...

Everybody be careful, okay?

Pay attention.

On the
eastern bairdi crab grounds.

Lots going on out here.

You know, it's big
gear. It's heavy gear.

The weather's not ideal.

Happens.

All right.

Our problem is that
they keep moving west.

We're going to get
to the point where

we can't go past the 166 line.

If, in fact, they are
still moving that way.

If, in fact, they are
still moving that way.

They're going to walk right
out from underneath us.

Tracking a
migrating school west,

Captains Linda Greenlaw
and "Wild" Bill Wichrowski

haul gear, soaking 20 miles

from the legal limit
off the grounds.

Here we go, see what we've got.

Sounds good.

Looking at lot of weed.

Not what I'd hoped for.

Got nine or so, I don't know.

Not so good, man.

Aw, man.

Sack these up.

I want more.

Even if this was
even a little bit better,

everything seems to be just,
kind of, edging its way on the west.

We're as far west as we can go.

Come on, crab!

Watch out.

Watch out!

Whoa!

On the Summer Bay...

Hey, control the crane.

Crane's smacking the house.

Yeah, sorry about that, Bill.

Fortunately, it missed
the window.

Nobody's paying attention.

It makes me have to watch

the deck all the time

instead of doing what
I need to be doing.

Or get the next pot.

Come on, baby.

Damn it.

Where's all the crab at?

No bueno.

Whoa!

So Hanlon's doing
the work of many.

Hey, Blaise,

yeah, watch where
you're standing, man.

I'm just trying to
oversee these guys.

Make sure they don't screw up.

Hey, don't...
Hey, don't stand right there.

Stand over there.
Stand over there.

What back up?

Watch out!

My gosh.

- You okay?
- Yeah!

Boat took a roll

and there was a little slack
in the line going to the crane.

And the whole pot
slid to starboard

and Blaise was on top of that,

holding on for dear life.

Holding on for dear life.

Trust me, he was
hanging on tight.

I was just doing my job.

You know, I'm tying
down pots, taking waves,

and that happened so fast.

I was just trying
to stay onboard.

Really, that's all you can do.

We got about 30 pots on.

Stack looks like hell.

Blaise almost
went over the side.

Unacceptable.

No, dude.

We can go only
so much farther west.

If everything is
moving that way,

it'd be nice to have
some gear there

before they continue to walk.

Yup, catch up, Bill.

Eighty miles south...

Offload's on Tuesday.

On the Wizard.

I'll tell you what, if
there's a warm body

on that beach looking for work,

Jacob may have just hauled
his last pot on the Wizard.

Jacob may have just hauled
his last pot on the Wizard.

Because if I can
replace him, I will.

Let's get back into Wizard
fishing, all right, guys?

Let's go!

Roger!

Going over!

Hustling to make an
offload in just three days' time,

Captain Keith commits
his remaining pots

Captain Keith commits
his remaining pots

to a contour of soft bottom,

betting a tip from Jack
Anderson will pay off at the dock,

while crab prices
are still profitable.

I had a hunch that we're
going to see the crab here.

Going over!

I just keep
giving Jacob chances.

Now even tied?

He's got the potential.

He has the desire.

But if I'm distracted,

I'm not doing my job right.

Roger!

Will you forgive
me, Keith, for again,

Will you forgive
me, Keith, for again,

just letting my mouth and my
attitude get in the way.

I'm really trying to
stick with you, man

and learn everything I can.

You know what?
Your learning curve

isn't very good right now, dude.

You've got an authority
problem like nobody's business.

You want to be a captain?

You got to learn
how to be a captain.

You don't fight with your mouth.

You fight with your actions

and your ability
and your prowess

and your ability to learn.

- Okay?
- Going over.

I don't know why I lose
my. I get in my own head.

I don't know why I lose
my. I get in my own head.

I saw him and freaked out.

That's the last time.

Any more of that, you're gone.

Thanks again for
showing me some grace.

Going over.

All right.

Jacob.

The kid's a thorn in my ass.

Twelve miles west...

on the Saga.

Hey, Sean.

What's up, dude. How's it going?

I still have
a lot of fish to get.

I have tomorrow
and today to fish

and then I have to offload.

And then I have to offload.

I am out west.

That's a little
extreme, isn't it?

I just don't think
I'm ready to go to Adak, yet.

I'mma set it right here,

sixty-six fathoms, all
the way down to 33.

Sixty-six fathoms, all
the way down to 33.

I'll let you know how it goes.

See ya.

Sean has been one of
my closest friends out here.

We work well together
and we trust each other.

But it makes no sense to me

to run 600 miles to the west

if I can finely contour six
miles away from where I was?

Right here.

With nearly $4 millions
of black cod quota to catch...

Roger that!

Jake launches
a nine-pot, long-line string

onto a shallow ridge line,

two days before
mandatory delivery.

All right, everybody
stay on your toes.

- There's a mark over here.
- Right.

Off. Let it go.

Mark this up, man.

That's the first
one in this little room.

Pull over.

- We're... We're rocking.
- It's... It's out still.

So, you get the waves, and... and
the pots moved real easy on the metal.

It moved real easy.

It moved real easy.

It don't take much.

Guide Kaleo.

Yeah.

Okay, let's go.

One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven...

Two more to go.

Come on.

Wait!

Is he okay?

On the Saga...

Come on.

Is he okay?

Dude. Damn it, Kaleo.

You've got to stop going in
places that you're going to get hurt.

I don't know how many times I've told
you to stay away from that rail.

I almost got
smooshed by the pot.

Mason wired up, and
I was kind of in a bite.

I was in a bad spot.

So, it's my fault, mainly.

Kaleo is writing a book. It's
called 101 Places Not to Be.

Being pinned in
between two pots is no joke.

It could've broke his legs,
it could've broke his back.

I hope that situation
scared Kaleo straight.

I hope that situation
scared Kaleo straight.

Shouldn't have been there.

I don't know, I'd
rather not talk about it.

That's the last pot right there.

Let's hope there's
something here.

80 miles northeast...

I can read between the lines.

On the Northwestern...

Mandy, she's
spying on us right now.

Mandy, she's
spying on us right now.

And you can kind of see
where the boat's at on AIS.

So, I know she's watching.

I think she's a little concerned
that we're not finding crab,

and she wants to
go by the survey.

64 fathoms.

In theory, it's a good idea.

Clark, you want to come up?

Yeah, all right.

I think Clark's getting
a little confused here.

He's not sure which
captain to take orders from.

He's not sure which
captain to take orders from.

Catching wind of his
daughter's unfolding coup de crab,

Capt. Sig sets his own trap

to see if his son-in-law's
loyalties, well, lie.

- You see that?
- Yeah.

North and south
string right there.

All right, easy now.

All right, easy now.

- I'll go lay down.
- Okay.

- Hello.
- I'm up here sitting right now.

Okay.

Tell me the coordinates
where you want the string.

Yeah, I'm looking
at it right now.

Yeah, that's the one
where the survey showed really good.

I figure better quality.

I figure better quality.

I mean, it's
definitely a gamble.

As soon as I turn the boat,
he's going to feel us rolling.

Don't do it
for me, gotta do it for sailor.

All right, I'll give you
a call here in a little bit.

Sig wants to
set north and south,

but where Mandy is
showing me on the survey,

you know, there's a hotspot
if you're setting east to west.

So, I don't know if I can
kind of be sneaky about it

and will be able to
get these pots off.

We're going to take a...
just a quick little detour here

- to go check a couple of other spots.
- Roger that.

All right, guys.
It's already set?

Roger.

Come on,
team. Let's go, let's go.

Don't know why we're
setting in this direction.

Hopefully, he's knocked out.

If it lands us on crab, it's
going to be good for everybody.

60 miles northwest,

on the Summer Bay.

All right, you guys.
We got about a mile.

Here's, 166.

That's as far west as we can go.

And the few pots
over on the end there,

those are the best pots of that
string in there on the western end.

- So...
- Yeah. Jammed up against the line.

- So...
- Yeah. Jammed up against the line.

Fresh bottom, fresh bait.

Sounds good.

Looking to snare
the westward-bound school

before they escape
across the border,

Captains Bill and Linda
prep to set their 110 pots

right on the legal
boundary line.

It's all about getting these
numbers to add up now.

You need
to be able to get out on deck

whether you have to sleep in
your rain gear. I don't care.

This is bull...

They're late every
time going on deck.

What the?

On the Summer Bay...

- Hey, Bill.
- Yeah?

Did you see the wet room?

What happened?

Flood going on down there.

Somebody didn't
close the freaking door?

Apparently. I don't know, where
else would it come from, right?

- That's the only place it would come from.
- Yeah.

Well...

I don't think anybody was checking the
engine room when they were on watch.

You guys are idiots.

All the gear down
there, a lot of equipment.

Noted.

Going over.

I'm used to having crews
that already know the ins and outs.

I'm just trying to show them
what it's like to be a good hand.

You got to think of all your
actions on these boats. I mean, it...

It could've been disastrous. It could've
leaked down into the engine room,

got on some of the controls.

And all... all of our
safety is at risk with this.

We're going to have to
get these guys together.

85 miles southeast...

On the Wizard.

On the Wizard.

Here we go.
First pot coming up.

Okay, here we go.

To pull this off, I... we're
trying to get this gear

and this crab on board.
Sneak in, sneak out.

Let's see what we got.

Here we go.

Yeah, baby.

You like that? Plenty more
where that came from. Yeah.

Right on. Right on.

We have good intel out of this.

74 fathoms. Catch us some crab.

It looks like it might be
chaffed up near the wench, too.

Doesn't look very safe.

We can't work
without the aft crane.

To the little plug
that holds it in place.

There's actually a lot of
stuff up there, too.

Yeah, it's getting pinched
by the shiv, is what it is.

Go get me an extension cord
grinder with a grinding wheel on it.

Got to cut off the
grinding wheel.

Okay, okay.

Not ideal.

I'm glad we caught it.

It could've just dropped the pot
right on top of somebody's head.

Got it! He got power.

Nice shot, Jacob.

Watch it run!

Let's go.

How's it look, Roger?
Does it look good?

So, I think we're
just about ready

to get back to work here.

That's how you
get things fixed. Thank you.

Jacob's got good attributes,

his passion being one of them.

But he needs to channel
it in a different direction

and learning how
to become a captain.

All right, guys. Get
ready. On the bow.

All right, guys. Get
ready. On the bow.

Roger.

We got a lot
of crab to catch here.

I'll leave the
singing to the singer.

65 miles northeast...

You want to be
sneaky? I'll be sneaky.

You want to be
sneaky? I'll be sneaky.

On the Northwest.

I'm at the top of the
gear in the first one.

So, going to get ready
to haul here, okay?

Come on.

One step ahead of Clark
and Mandy's late-night conspiracy set,

for Capt. Sig, it comes down
to how many crab are in the pots

and how much he can
make his son-in-law squirm.

All right, first pot coming up.

Get ready to throw.

Noted.

- Yeah!
- There it is!

I forget what depths I asked
you to set them at. What was that?

I started at,
like, the 70, 67...

You know, Mandy was trying to get
me to set on that old survey information.

And, I mean, it's... it's
old news. Bottom line.

Crab move, you know? You're
not reading a history book.

They're not stationary.

Do you like history, Clark?

Ju... Just I can't
wait to see this stuff.

Come on, Crab. Come on.

We got a long run ahead of us.

It's going to take a lot
of time to pick them up.

Yeah, it might be a while before
anybody has the chance to eat anything.

Northern style Bering
Sea grilled cheese.

Go.

- Torched cheese.
- Yeah, dude. Now, I want one.

No. -

Looks like it's propane-torched,
some bread and cheese.

That's what you got to do out
here. Grilled cheese sandwich.

That's what you got to do out
here. Grilled cheese sandwich.

Bon appetit.

Hunger, the mother of invention.

Come on, crab. Come on.

On the Northwestern...

Yeah! It looks pretty.

Solid. That's
what I like to see.

There's probably 30.

So, what depth was that at?

So, what depth was that at?

That was at 67 fathoms.

Really?

Pretty good.

That's, like, 40.

Nice. Lots
of life. Yeah.

We're in them.

We're in them.

That's a good pot. That's one
of the better ones I've seen.

Hey, what's up?

Are you seeing any crab?

Yeah, we're in them. It's
looking good. We got a good sign.

We're, like, halfway
through the string

and the crab are
looking clean, big.

I told you it works.
Does Sig know about the set?

Of course, I know.

I knew from the very beginning.

I knew from the very beginning.

It doesn't take a
scientist to figure that out.

I know everything.

I don't think I pulled
that one off very well.

I'll tell you what. It's a good thing
you landed on crab, smart guy.

But boy, boy, it could've
gone the other way around.

65 miles northwest,

on the Summer Bay.

Did you check the
engine room after your watch?

No, you didn't.

You didn't check it either.

You can't take the
two minutes it takes

to walk down here to
make sure we're all right?

You can sink the boat not
doing what you're supposed to do.

Yesterday was the
worst day I've ever had

with the crew on the
deck of this boat, so...

I've had it.

No more will I deal with this.

Get the out of here.

I'm guessing they haven't gone
down the whole season.

I get tired of being the... trying to
teach these simple lessons. I'm...

Well, there really is no excuse.

I hope we're getting
these guys turning around.

Here we go.

Come on, crab. Come on, crab.

Go, go, go, go!

Go, go, go, go!

Right up against
the 166 boundary.

We'll see what we get.

Here's Johnny!

Let's go.

Come on. Give me some love in
here, show me some freaking crab.

Here we go.

Yeah!

All right, we got crab, boys.

Yeah! All right, buddy.

One in a row.

All right, you guys, that
looks sort of smoother.

I mean, we've pulled some decent
numbers, nowhere near this.

Those are giant
crab in that pot.

- Fifty-four.
- Looks like we found them.

You're seeing some crab
here up against the line.

Guys are
starting to get dialed in.

There's something about
getting in a guy's face

and explaining to him
first-hand what he's doing wrong.

They seem to get
it better that way.

Maybe we're on track here.

If that didn't do it,
they... they can't be fixed.

Well, hopefully it
lasts, you know?

Yeah, that's the thing.

Yeah, that's the thing.

Whatever it takes.

- Hang on.
- What is this?

That's not going to do it.

Damn it.

Sixteen fish.

Ouch.

This looks like a blank pot.

Damn. Nothing.

Nothing.

Jake. Hey,
buddy. What's up, dude?

Hey, so I didn't find anything.

Damn, that hurts.

Damn, that hurts.

They're coming in to
offload right now, I'm sure,

and I really think that
we're going to go to A deck.

And yes, I said "we."

You're coming with me.

I'm into it. I like it.

Pack your bags.
We're going to the Wild West.

I will see you soon.
I'm on my way.
