Wicked Tuna (2012–…): Season 5, Episode 6 - Help Wanted - full transcript

After his mates call it quits, Paul is forced to accept a helping hand from Dave, a person who is supposed to be his competition.

DAVE: There he is! There he is!
There he is!

PAUL: Come on, baby, come on!

NARRATOR: On this episode
of Wicked Tuna...

JAY: This is Tyler!

[screaming]

We're on!

NARRATOR: Two struggling
captains...

PAUL: Could be the one,
right here, Geordie.

NARRATOR: Get some
much needed help.

TYLER: Oh, he's right here,
dart his ass.

NARRATOR:
And rival harpooners...



HOLLYWOOD: I can't let
those bums beat me.

NARRATOR: Fight...
GREG: Get 'em, Greg.

NARRATOR:
...for their final fish.

GIBBS: Hit 'em!

HOLLYWOOD: I asked for one more.

SANDRO: Woo, baby.

NARRATOR: In one of the most
regulated fisheries

in the world...

MARCIANO: It's just
what we need.

GREG: Nice, Gibbs!

NARRATOR: These fishermen
fight to earn a living...

PAUL: Kick his ass!

NARRATOR: Catching...

SANDRO: It's on.
Yeah, baby. Woo!



NARRATOR: Wicked Tuna.

At the start of week six,

last season's champion

Hard Merchandise

leads the fleet.

While Pinwheel

and Wicked Pissah,

who have both lost their mates

have fallen behind the rest

of the rod and reel boats.

And harpoon boat Kristiana has

a handy lead over rival, Lily.

[beeping]

SANDRO: Ah, dude,
all over your down rod. Wow.

[beeping]

DAVE: They're in here.

[beeping]

Come on, dude, we're gonna
get a bite here.

SANDRO: I'd love to catch one.

DAVE: My goal, as always,
is the same--

to be the top boat in the fleet.

We have a lot of work to do
to get there.

And this week,
it's just Sandro and I.

Look at that.

SANDRO: Is there three?

DAVE: Alright, let's get ready.

I loaned my mate Geordie
to Paul on the Wicked Pissah,

'cause he still
doesn't have a crew.

He only gets Geordie
for one week.

[beeping]

SANDRO: Oh, my God.

80 feet now.

DAVE: Me helping Paul out now

will lead to him helping me out
in the future.

SANDRO: Going down.

Looks almost like the same mark.

[beeping]

DAVE: I just hope that doesn't
come back to bite me in the ass.

SANDRO: Oh, my God,
he's all over it.

DAVE: Got him, got him.

Oh, yeah. Right, there we go!
There we go! Yes, sir!

Come on, come on, baby.

Come on, get it in there.

SANDRO: It's on!
Yeah, baby! Woo!

We're running around,

we're trying to clear
all the other lines;

we got to get off this anchor.

I kind of miss Geordie
right now.

I didn't get off the anchor yet.

DAVE: I know, I know.

Get that one rod up.

SANDRO: I'm clear.

Go, baby, yeah, woo-hoo!

Wow, we're on.

Wow, that'd probably give us two
or three of them on the machine.

DAVE: You ready?

♪ ♪

Could be in for a long battle,

hate for something to spoil
this big fish right here.

SANDRO: Big boy, oh, yeah.

DAVE: Oh, yeah.

SANDRO: No way.

DAVE: No way.

SANDRO: You got to be [bleep]
kidding me.

DAVE: What the [bleep]?!

This is not the way I wanted
to start this trip.

Un-[bleep]-believable.

SANDRO: Why do I do this
for a living?

This is stupid.

DAVE: We just can't afford
to lose any more fish.

SANDRO: [bleep] joke, dude.

PAUL: It's so, so hard to have
people that are really good.

Having Geordie on the boat

is like having three other guys
with me.

He's very good, very smart,
loves fishing.

Almost two weeks ago...

LANCE: I ask you
one simple thing

and you flip the [bleep] out.

PAUL: This is my boat.

I'm the captain, I'm the boss,
and that's that.

BRAD: That's just bad.

PAUL: My mates,
Brad and Lance, quit.

PAUL: You should have said
something like a man.

And last week,
I went fishing by myself

and I didn't catch anything.

I just lost him.

[bleep]

It's upstanding by him
to do that.

Give up one of his guys for me?

I don't know if he wants
to know what I'm doing.

[laughs]

Mates come and go all the time,

but you know the people that are
in it to win it, you know?

GEORDIE: This whole situation
is, is almost surreal.

Paul's got a reputation
of being tough to work with.

He's been driving
his mates away.

I think that's proof

that he is a really hard
character to work for.

PAUL: Hey, Geordie, here you go.
To make it official.

GEORDIE: Yeah, here you go.

PAUL: Team player.
GEORDIE: Payday.

PAUL: See?

[laughs]
Yeah!

GEORDIE: Does it look better
than the black?

PAUL: Let's go show Dave
your new shirt.

[laughs]

♪ ♪

HOLLYWOOD: You out here, boss?

MARK: Yeah, I got you.

Where's Blue Pill?

HOLLYWOOD:
Naw, I don't see Blue Pill.

We're behind right now
with the Kristiana,

but it's not like I'm really
worried about those guys.

I am the greatest,
I am the best.

I'm calling Greg
Captain Blue Pill

because I hear he can't function
without his blue pill.

[laughs]

MARK: I got two bunches
inside here now.

HOLLYWOOD: Oh, yeah,
I see you over there.

Way inside me, right?

MARK: Big bunch,
your, uh, 12 o'clock.

It's the last days of harpooning

because the fish are getting
harder and harder to spot.

The water temperature's
beginning to change

and the fish are diving deeper.

Pretty soon, even I won't be
able to see 'em from the plane.

20 boat lengths or so.

HOLLYWOOD: Here.

JOEL: We need to find some fish.

GREG: Keep your eyes
on the water

and take your eyeballs
out of your pockets,

maybe we would find some.

GIBBS: Yup.

It's a knockdown, drag-out fight
for these last few fish

that are running on the surface.

Hopefully, they come up
in a little while.

GREG: No kidding.

We're at the tail end
of the harpooning season.

Team Kristiana is as strong
as it's ever been.

Everybody gets along.

Everybody has the same goal,
and that is to beat Hollywood.

Come on, we need
to find one here.

Everybody's tired of hearing
Hollywood trash talk

and brag about himself.

We beat him this year,
he's going to lose his mind.

He's not going to be able
to take it,

he's going to move out of town.

Hope these aren't gonna be
all plane fish today.

JOEL: We don't need that plane.

MARK: At 12 o'clock, six boat
lengths, come left a touch.

HOLLYWOOD: It's so important
this year

for me to beat the Kristiana.

It's very simple--I have to win.

There's no other way
for me but to win.

JIMMY: How does the speed feel?

MARK: Feels great,
but keep the speed up.

HOLLYWOOD: Hey!

JIMMY: Who's this coming?

MARK: This boat's going
to blow our chances

by spooking the fish.

This guy's freaking right out.

He's out of his mind.

HOLLYWOOD: There he comes,
he's gonna act up.

MARK: Guy's nuts.

HOLLYWOOD: [bleep] you!

I'm gonna get you next time!

This boat's harassing me for the
same reason everyone else does.

They can't handle

Captain Hollywood
hammering fish.

MARK: Guy's flipping out.

HOLLYWOOD: I guess I get
under people's skin sometimes.

It's just part of being
Captain Hollywood,

you love to hate me.

What a bunch of [bleep].

What's wrong with these people?

MARK: There should be a bunch
right here somewhere.

I got 'em over here,
they're coming back up,

four or five boats,
they're all jumping over there.

JIMMY: See 'em there
in front of us?

Down this straight,
right in front of us.

HOLLYWOOD: Right in front of us.

MARK: Three boat lengths.

HOLLYWOOD: Plow right in there,
Jimmy.

MARK: Come left.

Swimming from your right
to your left.

Left. Hard left.

Fish are off to your left.

Coming. Two boat lengths.

Boat length and a half.

Ah, hold that steady
for a second more.

♪ ♪

HOLLYWOOD: Damn, I missed him!

MARK: Nuts!

Thought he was almost going
to have a real try there.

HOLLYWOOD: I had to try
that one deep,

there's nothing I could do.

JIMMY: Yeah.

HOLLYWOOD: If I miss,
it's on me.

And that's what I like
about my operation.

It's all up to me in the end.

I'm here to win, I'm here to go
home with the biggest paycheck.

I'm not out here trying
to make friends.

We're getting madness today,
we got fighting, we got yelling.

[laughs]

TYLER: I have to keep fishing.

This year's been really tough,

we've been fishing
around the clock.

Drake got sick and
he had to go home,

and it stinks, it's terrible.

Last week,
I had to cut my trip short

to bring my mate, Drake,
into the hospital.

TYLER: I guess Drake
can't help being sick,

but I can't afford
to not be fishing.

I had to call for
some reinforcements,

because I'm kind of in a jam
and I need to go fishing,

and there's only
one person I know

that can come fishing
with me right now.

The other boats are catching
fish, the competition is fierce.

I definitely need
an ace in the hole.

I need someone I can count on,

someone that's fished with me
in the past.

Someone who knows how to get
the job done and can catch fish.

That's exactly who I called,

I'm just waiting for him
to get here.

TRAVIS: I don't even know if
Tyler's going to recognize me

without all my hair.

What's up, man?

TYLER: Yo, how you doing,
brother?

Good to see you, man.

Dude, what happened to
all your hair, man?

TRAVIS: I donated it.

Someone else needed it more than
I did, that's for sure.

I'm pretty pumped up to be here,
fishing on the Pinwheel again.

Hopefully, we can just
pick it up

to where did last year
and kick ass.

We need to get this boat
cleaned up.

TYLER: Oh, please, come on,
let's go catch fish,

let's go catch fish.

TRAVIS: Alright.

MARK: You picking me up?

HOLLYWOOD: What's going on?

MARK: Nothing, they're gone now.

I can look around in here
if you want.

I don't know, kind of see.

It's mainly on me to find
the majority of the fish

and make any day profitable
for the Lily.

Let alone the last day.

They got to be right up on top
or you're freakin' done.

The fish are getting deeper,
so it's do or die time now.

Go see if we can find 'em.

HOLLYWOOD: One anyways.

I missed a fish today,

but I'm still not worried about
those guys on the Kristiana.

I can write the book now

and tell you the end of the, the
last chapter, how it's gonna go.

Pain and suffering
for the Greg Show.

GREG: That's them there, I got
'em now, they're making water,

I'm going to go on 'em.

JOEL: Grab, yep, yep.

GREG: They're from 10 o'clock
to 1 o'clock!

JOEL: Line it up.

GREG: Lining it up.

I'm gonna take you in
on the left side.

They seem back a little bit.

Now that's what it's all about
right there, Joel.

MARK: Alright, they're coming
back up, coming back up.

Probably your 10 o'clock there.

HOLLYWOOD: Right here,
right here, right here.

MARK: Six boat lengths.

JOEL: There you go,
right up the middle, Greg.

GREG: Oh, right there,
you're right on 'em, Joel.

MARK: Uh, they've turned.

Four boats or so now.

HOLLYWOOD: Got it at kill speed?

JIMMY: Yeah, we're close.

MARK: Come right a touch.

Right, right some, right.

GREG: Point at one
and lock on it!

JOEL: There you go,
straight ahead, 12 o'clock.

MARK: 12 o'clock.

GREG: Right there,
yup, yup, yup, yup.

MARK: One boat length.

And...

GREG: Come on, Gibbs, hit him.

♪ ♪

GREG: Right there!

MARK: One boat length.

And...

GREG: Come on, Gibbs, hit him.

HOLLYWOOD: Hit him!
MARK: Got him.

GREG: He's dead!

JOEL: Yeah, Gibbs!

HOLLYWOOD: Ha!

Whacked another one!

MARK: Number one, number one.

[laughs]

GIBBS: One, two, three.

GREG: Yeah! Nice, Gibbs!

[laughs]

Hey!

What do you got?

GIBBS: 79!

GREG: That's it! 79 inches.

I want to go out on a high note

and kick Hollywood
right in the ass.

Look for a big one!

GIBBS: I'm gonna!

HOLLYWOOD: Nice one.
Look at that. Bingo.

Pull him right up, Jimbo.

Nice one.

Nice!

Here, Jimbo.

Let's see what we got.

73, we'll take him.

I'm relieved.

We finally got our first
fish of the day.

Who's better than me?

MARK: I'm not sure how
the Kristiana got in the lead.

But we're going to
fix that today.

HOLLYWOOD: I asked for one more.
God give it to me.

JAY: Today's a brand new day.

Bright, sunny day,
and we're in a good area, and...

You feel good?

MARCIANO: I feel good.

JAY: Alright. We feel good.
'Cause I feel whatever he feels.

MARCIANO: Last week,
when Jay was off the boat,

my son Joe and I
caught four fish.

JOE: Hey, good job!
MARCIANO: Well done.

MARCIANO: Number four.

Bringing us to the top
of the leaderboard.

Joe earned himself
some time off.

So this week, it's old school,
just Jay and I.

This is one of our
secret spots, Jay.

This place has been good to us
in the past.

Let's hope
it's good to us today.

JAY: Yeah.

Hopefully, it's not too secret.

MARCIANO: We can't
come back empty.

We need at least one.

JAY: Check it out,
this is my workout.

[laughing]

Fishing with Dave
is a lot more fun

when you're on top of the fleet.

[laughing]

MARCIANO: Jay's losing it.
He's getting punchy.

What are you doing?

JAY: Help me out.

MARCIANO: Oh, wait.

[laughing]

You need to work out more.

JAY: Alright.
Time to go fishing.

[laughing]

This is Tyler!

'Ah! We're on!'

MARCIANO: Stick figure boy.

That's Jay's Tyler impression.

JAY: We're on! Ahh!

MARCIANO: After being out here
for days on end

working around the clock...

JAY: Ahh!

MARCIANO: ...it's crucial
to have a little fun.

If you can't laugh,
life's not worth living.

JAY: Pin squeak.

Mehh!

[laughs]

TYLER: Ahh! [laughs] Woo!

Well done, Travis! Travis!

This is the real deal, we've
been waiting all day for this.

It feels great.

First just with Travis on board,
getting us back in the race.

Everything's gravy
on the Pinwheel.

Woo-hoo-hoo!

[laughs]

TRAVIS: We've caught
plenty of fish before,

and I intend on doing it again.

Woo-hoo-hoo!

Definitely a tuna fish.

He's under it all day.

TYLER: Let it go, let it go.
Back the drag off.

I see color!

Color, color, color!

Little baby tuna.

Little guy.

We're gonna have to let him live
to grow another day, huh?

You have to catch a fish
at 73 inches or greater

in order to harvest it.

Anything less gets released.

It ensures that the fish has
the opportunity to reproduce.

Swim away, little buddy.

Look, there he goes.

See ya later.

Hey, we'll catch him
when he's older.

GREG: Right in the front!
Right down!

I'm going to come left a little.

Still up, it's up to the right.

One o'clock!

GREG: We've got four fish

We're neck and neck.

We're hoping from
a money point of view

we're actually ahead of him.

I got color on the right!
Color on the right!

GIBBS: They're gone.

You can tell it's the last days
for harpooning

'cause the fish are getting
harder and harder to spot.

This could be our last shot
at a paycheck this year,

because tomorrow,
they might just stay down.

Let's not race around,
whatever we do.

GREG: Yeah.

JIMMY: Oh, I don't know.

I think, I don't think
they're doing anything.

JIMMY: Yeah.

But who's counting?

[laughs]

HOLLYWOOD: We're tied with Greg
today with one fish.

He's got one and we got one.

We need a top quality fish
to catch the Kristiana.

I can't let those bums beat me.

I love when they bring
the pressure on.

It makes me just focus
on killing 'em.

Coming in now.

MARK: I see activity.

A dozen fish or so,
uh, your, uh, 12:30,

about eight boat lengths.

MARK: It's them jumping
right there.

Pick up the power a little bit.

HOLLYWOOD: Pick your speed
right up and come around.

Got 'em? Got 'em, Jimmy?

JIMMY: There's only a couple
there, I think.

HOLLYWOOD: One more,
I'd be real happy.

GREG: We got 'em right here!

There's still fins and tails
right beside us.

Right beside us.
Right in front of you.

GIBBS: Oh, yeah, baby.
Get me on that big boy.

GREG: We're in attack speed.

It'd be nice to get
another fish here.

Kind of spread out in front
of you there a little bit.

12 o'clock, right in front
of you, color.

GREG: Yeah, that's a big bastard
right there.

GIBBS: Oh, get me on that.

JOEL: A couple boats away.

MARK: Two boat lengths.

That's going dead away from you.

HOLLYWOOD: They're right there.

HOLLYWOOD: Right here.

GIBBS: Hit him!

GIBBS: Yeah!
HOLLYWOOD: Yeah! Woo!

HOLLYWOOD: Come up on him,
Jimmy!

Oh, my God.

I asked for one more.

JOEL: This trip, the Kristiana
started out ahead of the Lily.

I think this fish will
keep it that way.

Feels like a big one.

GREG: 74 inches.

Hollywood feels he has to be
the number one boat

or he's going to lose face,

so he's definitely nervous
that we're gonna beat him.

Captain's happy!

JOEL: Put some blood on the deck
just like I wanted.

And it's game time.

MARK: Bam!

HOLLYWOOD: Rip him right in.

Good shot.

JIMMY: Nice one, too, Billy.

HOLLYWOOD: Is it?

Let's measure him.
I want to re-rig.

82.

Nice. Right here, buddy.

Huh?

That was teamwork.

Nice.

MARK: Oh, yeah.

Coming again at your
11 o'clock there.

I mean, I was just happy
with that.

I need another one right now.

That's good, steady.

Come left now, Jimmy, come left.

Three boat lengths.

on these fish.

PJ: Wow! Where'd the beef go,
Jimmy?

JIMMY: I don't know.

PJ: No beef on this one.
JIMMY: Nope.

PJ: Pretty lean. $6 a pound.

HOLLYWOOD: Alright.

red meat's paying.

HOLLYWOOD: Alright, alright.

Some real nice fat to it.

Beautiful shape

HOLLYWOOD: Nice!

HOLLYWOOD: Alright. About time.

We got a nice, little

is bigger,

but to beat the Kristiana,

we still need a great
price per a pound.

PJ: Very pretty!

Wow. That's beautiful.
That's a real nice fish.

HOLLYWOOD: Does Greg got
one of these fatties?

PJ: Not today.

Beautiful.

too worried about it.

But the bottom line is, I need
to catch a fish with Paul

so that I can have a paycheck.

I want to buy a house
in the next year and a half,

next 18 months, and hopefully
I can pull that off.

I know he's getting
pretty frustrated.

DAVE: So, it's got to go off,

So far we've had a hook pulled,
and lots of marks, but no bites.

SANDRO: Oh! All over, man.

Unbelievable.

DAVE: Well, we've got
to get a bite here.

SANDRO: All over.
[whistles]

Wow, I can't believe
we're not tight right now.

Oh, my goodness.

No [bleep] way!

Another hook pulled.
You've got to be kidding me.

This is not gonna get us into
the lead, and that's for sure.

SANDRO: We are literally cursed,
literally cursed.

DAVE: I'm totally beside myself.

SANDRO: This is too much, dude,

DAVE: Come on, Sandro.

SANDRO: Come on, Dave.
Grab the wheel!

DAVE: I'm running around
a little more than usual.

And I'm definitely missing
having Geordie here.

No, leave it, leave it for now.

Wait, let me get the bow rod.

SANDRO: I'm moving this rod
to the middle,

so I could drive the boat, too.

SANDRO: Just acting
really strange.

He goes, he stops,
he goes, he stops.

DAVE: Alright,
I'm back with you.

Everything's clear.
Anchor's right there.

I'm getting the harpoon out,
right?

Take your time,
we're gonna get this one.

Say a prayer to God.

SANDRO: I don't even want
to talk I'm so nervous.

Here we go.

Now it's business.

DAVE: Down to business!

Do we actually have
a hook in a fish

that's staying in
for the moment?

SANDRO: No. For the moment,
yeah, for the moment.

DAVE: I'm so freaking nervous
right now.

If that hook came out,
I don't know whether I'd cry...

SANDRO: I'd quit.

DAVE: Throw a tantrum.

SANDRO: Right here, dude.

Hold on.

Hold on.

DAVE: Whoa, oh!

SANDRO: That's badass.

Whoa!

DAVE: Lift, if you can.

Lift, lift, lift, lift,

DAVE: Got one! Yeah.

SANDRO: Yeah!

Praise the lord!

DAVE: Hey, hey, come here.
Let me see.

Pinch.

SANDRO: Ow! It's real life.

1, 2, 3.

Look at that.

We finally did it,
we got a fish.

84.

DAVE: Wow!

You know what? Now I'm happy.
I can't believe we got one.

SANDRO: Do you believe
in miracles?

PJ: Way to go, Dave!

DAVE: 84 inches.

PJ: Nice, good size.

DAVE: Let's get him up.

PJ: 241 pounds dressed.

SANDRO: Nice. Take it, yeah.
PJ: Nice, little fish.

SANDRO: Go check it out.

PJ: Check her out.

He's loaded.

SANDRO: Did you say loaded?

PJ: This is very pretty, Dave.

Inside color's beautiful.

DAVE: What are you thinking?
Come on.

PJ: $20 a pound
on this one, Dave.

SANDRO: Oh, wow, nice.
Yes, sir. I'll take it.

DAVE: That's our best
price per pound yet,

and that's just what we needed.

Now we're gonna head right back
out there and do it again.

PJ: Get you some ice.

DAVE: We'll be back tomorrow.

PJ: Thank you, guys.

SANDRO: Thanks, bud.

NARRATOR: Dot Com's highest

quality fish so far this season

edges them closer

to the fleet's leaders.

TYLER: Pretty fishy morning
we got here this morning.

A lot of bait around,
baits are starting to dispersed.

Any point in time the big
predators could come through.

Just want to make sure
we got all our bait set,

just went through everything.

Got three rods out.

Need a bite.

The Pinwheel only has three fish
so far this season.

That's terrible.

We gonna get bit or what?

TRAVIS: It's all mackerel.

TYLER: No, I know.

But the bait is here,
so we just got to wait it out.

What are you doing to me, dude?

[beeping]

TRAVIS: We're marking!
We're marking!

[beeping]

[reel ticking]

[reel unspooling]
We're on! We're on!

TRAVIS: Got him on. There it is!

TYLER: Nice, nice.
TRAVIS: Got him on!

TRAVIS: We're good to go.

Big fish, taking a lot of line.

Running him down.

TYLER: We got a really big fish
on here.

It just took about five
football fields of line.

He's way out, we're trying
to catch up to him.

Get some line back on the reel.

TYLER: When he ate the bait,
he came up,

and he got the line
wrapped around his tail,

and that's why we're
pulling backwards now,

we're not pulling
from his mouth.

So he's got a big advantage.

Not only is it the first thing
in the morning

and only about five
brain cells work,

we got about a 600-pound bluefin
on the other end

that's firing on all cylinders.

TRAVIS: You know what
I'd like right now?

TYLER: What?

TRAVIS: Just like
a cold glass of milk...

TYLER: I got you, brother,
I got you.

TRAVIS: Maybe some cookies.

TYLER: I got you, dude.
I got you.

TRAVIS: Should we start
cooking breakfast?

TYLER: Alright, listen,
that's a little too complicated,

we only got seven brain cells
between the two of us.

TRAVIS: Tyler and I, we're just
gonna play this fish out.

I mean, if it takes five hours,
it takes five hours.

TYLER: Here, sweetie.

TRAVIS: That's not very good.
Thanks, man, appreciate it.

TYLER: You're welcome.

TRAVIS: And, uh, you know,
woke up to a bite.

TYLER: He's like five or six
football fields

behind the boat right now.

And he's mean!

Ah-ooh, keep winding, baby!

Thank God, dude.

We needed this bite
to start the day.

TRAVIS: Ah, beautiful sunrise,
beautiful bent rod,

what more could you ask for?

TYLER: This is a bigger fish
than what we thought, bro.

This thing's 90 inches all day.

500-pounder.

You're doing a phenomenal job
on the rod right now.

Whoa, swivel, swivel,
swivel, swivel.

Where'd you go, where's he go,
where's he going?

TRAVIS: Good, good, good,
good, good, good.

Take it out of gear.

TYLER: Neutch.

TRAVIS: There he is,
there he is, there he is.

Right on top, right on top.

TYLER: I see him, I see him.

You gonna harpoon him?

TRAVIS: Yeah.

TYLER: There he is!

Look at the sickles
on that mother! Woo!

Easy, he's coming at us now,
he just changed directions.

You gonna harpoon him?

TRAVIS: Yeah.

TYLER: Come here, then.

Come dart, he's right here,
dart his ass!

Oh, you missed the barn door.

Nice, Travis!

Yeah, buddy!

Oh, I broke him off!

It's getting away!

We're losing him!

TYLER: Right here. Dart his ass!

Nice, Travis!

Yeah, buddy!

Ah, I broke him off!
Now he's on the dart line.

Oh! Oh! Oh!

TRAVIS: We're losing him!

TYLER: Oh, great. Oh, great.

We broke him off on the line,
now we got him on the harpoon.

Pull him right up to you.
Get a gaff.

Come on, Travis,
here's the tuna.

Nice!

Woo!

Hell yeah!

Break him off.

Man, let's get
the job done, baby!

Woo!

Pinwheel, baby!

TRAVIS: Yeah, buddy.

TYLER: Woo!

First one, brother. First one!

This just goes to show you

how well Travis and I work
together on the boat.

We know how to get it done.

Wow, look at this one!

Nice!

TRAVIS: Ah, man!

Look how round
this thing is, dude!

TYLER: Look, dude,
he's as big as the boat.

We need a bigger boat.

Let's go, what do we got,
what do we got, what'd we got?

Come on, come on, come on.

TRAVIS: 99.

TYLER: Ah!

I got 99 problems and
catching a bluefin ain't one.

Boom!

Pinwheel, baby!

PAUL: I just left, and we're
going four miles from here.

GEORDIE: Yep.

PAUL: I think this is
where you guys were. Right?

We're almost at the end
of the week and had no luck.

So we're heading to
my favorite spot.

You only have so much money
to keep the boat going

without having money coming in.

GEORDIE: Is that Dave
to the east there?

It might be.

Paul and I haven't really seen
anything in a couple days.

It can get old quick,
especially if fishing's slow.

I need to catch one with Paul,
otherwise I'm down a paycheck.

Yeah, it's Dave right
in front of us there, bud.

PAUL: When you're fishing,
and Dot Com's there,

you know you're in a good spot,
'cause he is a good fisherman.

but things have definitely
turned around for us.

Am I dreaming?

screaming,

I thought I was dreaming.

That's a big boy right there.

on one over there.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't
wish I was over there

with Dave and Sandro right now,
but I'm not.

And that sucks.

That's frustrating,

I got it. He's got great color,

Big-ass fish!
Good color, good color, baby!

I'll take a shot.

Got him.

SANDRO: Ah, yeah, Davey!
There we go!

DAVE: We don't have him yet.

Right on over here.

Yeah, got one.

Woo-hoo-hoo!

SANDRO: Woo! Yes!

I'm stoked to catch this fish.

I'm just excited that we got
our second fish of the week.

We are lucky!

DAVE: It was on
the Dot Com special.

GEORDIE: Good job.

DAVE: Maybe Geordie should stay
over on the Wicked Pissah

with Paul, 'cause the Dot Com's
having a good week.

GEORDIE: Alright,
nice work, boys.

DAVE: We'll get on the ball
and go fish.

I want to get this fish in now,

so I can get
the best price possible.

GEORDIE: Rather be lucky
