Paul's team tries again. Pete notices that Erin is not pulling her weight. Dave and Tyler argue, ending in someone breaking a golden rule in fishing.

NARRATOR: On this
episode of Wicked Tuna.

TYLER: Reel, reel, reel! Woo!

JASON: We're on! That's him,
that's him!

NARRATOR: A deckhand's
free ride comes to an end.

PETE: Get your game on.
Don't argue with me.

NARRATOR: While
one captain fights.

PAUL: Brad, you get that?

Hold on, I'm going
to move the boat.

NARRATOR: To keep his crew.

BRAD: We don't need
any more [bleep].

We're just here to fish.



NARRATOR: And a
long-running feud.

TYLER: Come on, tough guy!

No one likes you, bro!

NARRATOR: Leaves one
captain in hot water.

DAVE: I hope he goes down.

NARRATOR: In one of the most
regulated fisheries in the world

JASON: There he is!
Coming at the boat!

LANCE: Come, baby! Come on!!

NARRATOR: These fishermen
fight to earn a living.

PAUL: Watch the other rod!

NARRATOR: Catching.

JASON: Watch the harpoon, Dave!

DAVE: It's a tuna!
PAUL: Whoa!

NARRATOR: Wicked Tuna.



At the start of week 7,

Fishing Vessel Tuna Dot Com
leads the fleet.

But last season's champion,
Hard Merchandise

and family operation,
Hot Tuna, are not far behind.

TYLER: Another day in paradise.

♪ [MUSIC] ♪

DRAKE: All right. What do
you want for breakfast?

TYLER: Three rods stretching!

DRAKE: I'm back on the Pinwheel
after a trip to the hospital.

My doctor gave me a look-over,
said I'll be good to fish,

and I'm feeling good and ready
to catch some giants again.

[BEEPING SOUND]

TYLER: We're marking.

It's week seven and the
Pinwheel only has four fish.

But now I have both Drake
and Travis on the back deck.

The rest of the fleet
better stand back,

because the Pinwheel's
at full strength,

and we're coming
for the top spot.

Come on! Eat that bait!

Marking 'em big time!

DRAKE: We're on.

TYLER: Got him on, dude.

We got to make this count, bro.

Come on, now.

Woo!

Got him on first
thing in the morning.

He's got some weight.
He's bigger than we think.

No doubt about it.

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

DRAKE: Hey!

TYLER: Those are big, violent
headshakes he's doing.

DRAKE: Big, violent headshakes.

He's definitely feeling like he
could be a 400-pounder right now

TYLER: He's 80-incher, bro!

Pull him in. Come on.

DRAKE: Coming up.

He's coming up.

TYLER: We need this tuna!

DRAKE: It is, in fact, a tuna.

TYLER: Really want
to catch this one.

TYLER: Oh! We lost him!

[Bleep]!

Pulled the hook.

DRAKE: Dammit.

TRAVIS: We didn't put
enough glue on that one.

TYLER: It sucks, what
are you going to do?

It absolutely sucks.

That's why you're out
here, working for it,

and you pull a hook.

DRAKE: Right at the boat, too.

Had him circling. Perfect
color, for like 5 minutes. Ugh!

TYLER: It's definitely
a kick in the nuts.

We really could use that fish.

This isn't how I wanted to
start out the first trip

with a full crew.

I just hope that it's not
a sign of things to come.

Why do I even wake up
in the [bleep] morning?

TJ: Hey, are you on there, Dave?

DAVE: I hear you loud
and clear now, TJ.

TJ: Oh!

Have you marked one?

DAVE: No.

TYLER:It's so annoying to listen
to TJ and Dot Com talking.

TJ: You'll get one at dark,
you'll get one in the morning.

You'll be coming back
out here next week.

DAVE: I'm never going again.

This is my last trip, ever.

TJ: You're so full of crap.

DAVE: I mean it this time.

I'm sketching up the 'for sale'
sign right now on my iPhone.

I got an app for that.

SANDRO: That's the funniest
thing I've ever heard you say.

TYLER: God, [BLEEP].

I've known TJ since
I was 18 years old.

TJ to work with Dot Com and
share information that Dot Com

doesn't know about when,

you know maybe you could
work with me a little bit?

TJ: What did Sandro
have to say about this?

DAVE: Sandro just offered
me a thousand dollars

to take him home.

TYLER: It makes me sick and
it really shows me that

TJ's working with my
biggest enemy on the water.

That almost makes TJ
my second biggest.

Dave dot-douche.

PAUL: ♪ Da, da, da, da, da,
la, la, la, la, la, la. ♪

I'm not 20 years old
anymore, man. It's hard.

[LAUGHS]

I mean, a lot of people come
and go in this business.

It's not made for everybody,
but it's a tough job.

People think it's just about
coming out and catching fish.

It's not that.

You got to get along.

You got to deal with each
other's living habits,

you know what I mean?

Three weeks ago, things
made a turn for the worse

with Brad, and Lance, and me.

LANCE: I'm asking
you one simple thing

and you flip the [bleep] out.

PAUL: And them guys quit.

Where are you?

I fished solo for a
week with no luck.

Think I just lost him. [Bleep]!

And last week, I had to borrow
Geordie off the Dot Com,

so I could get some
fish on my boat.

Yeah! We got him!

It's been rough but
things are gonna turn.

♪ [MUSIC] ♪

I got my crew back.

[LAUGHS]

BRAD: How you feel
being back, Lance?

LANCE: Still a little
skeptical, you know.

PAUL: It's not a one-guy team.

Brady doesn't win the
football games by himself.

[LAUGHS]

He needs a receiver,
and he needs a blocker.

You have to have good guys.

You got to have your team.

BRAD: We don't need
any more [bleep].

We're just here
to fish, you know?

LANCE: Just want to
catch fish, dude.

That's it, without the [bleep].

I still need to
provide for my family.

So it's my job to suck it up,
and get back on this boat,

and try to put some
fish on the deck.

PAUL: So glad the guys are back.

I know I got a reputation of not
being able to keep a crew

for the whole season, but
I'm going to fix that.

LANCE: It'd really help
out if we get a fish today.

BRAD: Eh, that'll
calm some nerves.

This is Paul's final chance to
show me he can successfully

captain this boat.

If we fail this trip out,
I'm done for good with Paul.

I really hope it
works out this time.

LANCE: Yeah, me too, man.

♪ [MUSIC] ♪

DAVE: Feel like you got one
more lucky fish left in you?

JOE: Yeah, hopefully I
can squeeze one more.

DAVE: Last trip out, Jay and
I failed to catch any fish.

But this week, we got Joe back,
so we're feeling really good.

And if we catch
fish with Joe today,

this time we're just gonna
chain him to the boat

so he can't be taking
any more days off.

Since he was in pull-ups,

Joe has always been
my good luck charm.

So I'm glad he's back this week.

[BEEPING SOUND]

JASON: There he is, at 12:00

JOE: It's great
that my dad thinks

that I'm a good luck
charm, and all. But,

without everyone, we wouldn't
be putting fish onboard.

[BEEPING SOUND]

We're on, we're on, we're on.

DAVE: We're on. There's a fish!
There you go!

It looks like it might be!
JASON: Reel, reel, reel!

DAVE: We on there?

JOE: Yeah.

DAVE: What does
it feel like, Joe?

JOE: I don't know.

Here, here get him.

I think it's a fish.

We're not really
sure how big it is.

JASON: Dave.
DAVE: Huh?

JASON: Hey I think we're
gonna need a bigger boat.

♪ [MUSIC] ♪

That's a screamer!

Here comes a
lightning storm, too.

DAVE: You don't
have to worry, guys.

Lightning is only dangerous
if you're on a boat.

JASON: Lightning
going on over there.

See that?

[LIGHTNING SOUNG]

It's going into darkness.

Got a little chop on the seas.

We're gonna need luck on
our side to land this one.

Lady luck.

DAVE: Good work, boys. Keep it
up, and we're gonna get him.

You're doing great back there.

The real challenge to fishing at
night is a loss of visibility.

You can't see stuff coming at
you from out of the darkness.

JASON: Watch this!

Here he comes!
JOE: Whoa!

Big wave, big wave!

DAVE: The seas are angry.

JOE: We just got to
get him to the boat,

and get him close enough
to stick a dart in him.

JASON: Oh!
DAVE: Rinse?

Charged the boat again.

JOE: Oh!

Oh, there he is, right on top.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
There he is!

JASON: Oh yeah, yeah,

Screw this Dot Com guy.

I've had enough of his [bleep].

It just doesn't make
any sense to me that

TJ and Dot Com are talking.

To see TJ now working with Dot
Com after Dot Com's burned him

in the past, how can TJ be
friends with this douchebag?

He's just gonna use him for

DAVE: Don't do it!

Don't do it, Tyler.

Hey!

When we get to the dock,
you come and see me.

None of this water.

TYLER: Why? You got to hit me in
the face with a poly-ball?

DAVE: You just did damage.

You just messed with
somebody's gear!

You're gonna get it, now.

TYLER: You're
threatening me again?

DAVE: You just got busted!

You don't touch each other's
gear out in the water.

That's the worst thing
you can possibly do.

I could take a lot
of things from Tyler.

Sticks and stones, calling
me names, I don't care.

But what he did,
cutting my lines.

That's crossing the line.

Period.

[RINGTONE]

TJ: What's going on?

DAVE: The kid just
came up to us,

spun around and started
stripping the line off our reel

and then he cut it.

TJ: What kid? Tyler?

DAVE: Tyler, yeah.

It's got to stop, man.

TJ: He's reckless, you're just
gonna have to handle it man.

And the fact that you're
catching a lot more fish

has just got him so nutted up.

He can't take it and this is
what he's resorting it to.

DAVE: I mean, I don't know,
what do you, what do you do?

TJ: I wouldn't go beat his ass.

I would take it to the
authorities first. I mean,

I, did you call the Coast Guard?

DAVE: TJ's right. I can't
keep letting this stuff go.

All right. See you, thanks, TJ.
Thanks for getting my back.

TJ: All right, you got it.

DAVE: Hey, Coast Guard
Gloucester, Tuna Dot Com.

TJ: He's already got numerous
strikes against him,

so you know what?

This could be the straw that
breaks the camel's back.

Eh, eh, they're just
gonna have, that's it.

He'll be banned from Gloucester.

He won't be able to
come back in here.

report an incident.

PETE: Out whale watching.

Tired of waiting,
just need a bite.

Too many slow days.

I really expected to have
a lot more fish than three

by this time in the season.

I've never had a run of slow
fishing that's been this long,

it's been very difficult.

BRANDON: Even the
whales are bored.

The fish are turned
off right now and

we're just trying
to wait them out.

My name's Erin.

I read books all day.

ERIN: You're funny.

BRANDON: It can be frustrating.

She's part of the crew
and we rely on her

to do her share of the work.

I would like to see her step
it up just a little bit more.

ERIN: I'm not helping you.
BRANDON: Huh?

You're not helping me because
you read books all day?

ERIN: Engaging my mind.

PETE: Erin's not quite where I
want her to be seven weeks

in the season.

But she has to stay
focused on the fishing.

ERIN: I know that my dad would
like to see me be a little more,

have a little like more
advanced knowledge,

you know what I'm saying?

I'm telling you, I'm so
addicted to this stupid game.

When there's downtime on the
boat, I really do like to read.

Sometimes I mess around
on my phone or kill flies.

See ya, wouldn't want to be ya.

BRANDON: This can't
go on forever

I've got to talk to the captain.

So cap, I know, you know, Erin's
new and she's got a lot to learn

still, but I've just noticed
she's, kind of, been

complacent at times.

I'm just wondering if maybe
you might mind having a word

with her and see if she might
putting down the phone sometimes

and giving me a hand.

PETE: She could do more.

BRANDON: Just, uh, just a
little bit extra would help out

a long ways. You know?

PETE: Well, we got to work
as a team, you know that.

BRANDON: Hopefully
something will change,

because this isn't
a cruise ship.

doing right now, kiddo?

ERIN: Nothing.
