- And a nice turn off the lip.
Making a beeline turn there.
- Carve, Matt.
- And a nice vertical reopening to ride out.
What a solid effort for Matty Leyland in the red.
Leyland leads by . points.
And it looks like Dean Edgely in the black
is lining up for the last wave of the set.
Let's see how he goes.
[upbeat rock music)
[applause)
The crowd loves that one!
Let's just wait and see how it's scored by the judges.
[loud honk)
- [Girl] You k*lled 'em, Edge!
His journey.
- [Simmo] Good stuff, what a surf, Matt.
- Thanks, man.
- [Perri] Great star, Matt.
- Well?
- You blew it, Edge.
- The crowd didn't think so.
- Forget the crowd, the judges who count.
How they gonna rate you for one great maneuver,
no matter how good it is?
- So you want me to put everyone to sleep like Matt did?
- I want you to stop being a one trick pony.
If you wanna win.
- [Perri] Hey, nice move Edge, fantastic.
- Well the final scores, and it's been a close contest.
But the winner of the Junior Boys Final, is Matty Leyland.
[cheers)
- Oh good on, Matt.
- [Perri] Winner's hug!
- Relax, everyone knows you should've won.
- Yeah everyone except the judges.
[rock music)
Zero, is this a joke?
- Far from it.
The kind of un-sportsman like behavior that you displayed
yesterday reflects badly on the whole Academy.
- But I came third, how can I get a zero.
- Edge, sorry mate we had to make an example.
- Just because he chucked his board?
That sucks, Edge should've won, he blew everyone else away.
- The judges didn't seem to think so.
- The judges couldn't see over their walking frame.
- [Deb] Edge, calm down.
- Sure they've seen enough cheesy ariels to know
he doesn't have the ground work to back it up.
- I'd like to see you do an ariel reverse.
- Basic on a kiteboard.
- Any coach can get air on a kiteboard.
- Okay, then you show me on a surf board,
and I'll have it down in an hour.
- Whatever.
- Okay, enough, all of you.
Edge, you and I'll talk about this later.
We should've taken two points off, not the whole lot.
- You know what Edge is like, he doesn't pay attention
unless he hits a brick wall.
- Well we could've spoken to him first.
I thought they were gonna start throwing punches.
- I know, that's what worries me.
They're meant to be pulling together as a group by now.
Most of the time they're at each other's throats.
- Deb, fair go, you started that one.
- I think they need a weekend away.
- A weekend away.
- This place runs courses on team building
and learning how to work together to achieve goals.
I've juggled the budget, and I think we can afford it.
- I've got a cheaper idea.
Take a look in the box.
What'd you see?
- I see paints, what else?
- A team building exercise.
[soft music)
- Hey.
Catch.
- Where'd you get this?
- Mom dropped off loads of them.
I think she reckons if I ate more of these,
I'll turn into Lane Beachly.
- So now I'm gonna turn into Lane Beachly?
- You might look better in a bikini.
- It's possible.
- Hm, is that a surfing trophy?
Can I have a look?
[bell chimes)
First place, cool.
- It's Mum's, Australian champ when
she was a bit older than me.
Then onto the World Circuit when she was only .
Did okay, too.
- Is that pressure?
- No, not really.
Yeah, a bit, yeah.
I guess it's always lurking
in the back of my brain somewhere.
Mostly I just keep the trophy around to bring me luck.
After today, I reckon I'll put it on Ebay.
- Hey you know that ariel reverse you did yesterday?
Do you reckon you could show me sometime?
- Sure, if you want.
- Meeting in the rec room, everyone, right now, come on.
Right.
A few of you have complained about
the state of this rec room.
- I can't understand why.
- Okay well to show you that we're listening,
we've decided to have it painted this weekend.
- Cool. - Yeah, great idea.
- I'm glad you sound enthusiastic because you're the ones
that are going to be doing it.
- [Matt] What?
- This is paint, and brushes.
The rest is up to you.
- Sorry, got major social plans.
- Cancel them.
Maybe I didn't make myself clear,
but this is a compulsory activity for assessment.
- For assessment?
- What's painting gotta do with surfing?
- Good question, Anna.
I'll refer it to Matt since he's gonna be in charge
of this whole operation.
- I'm not taking orders from him.
- You best get started, you got till Monday
or you all lose three points.
- Excuse me person in charge.
Why is all this paint a really disgusting shade of purple?
- So how about you show me that ariel reverse?
- What's in it for me?
- Ever done an AS on a kiteboard?
♪ What ya gonna do with yourself ♪
♪ Except nothing, except this ♪
♪ What ya gonna do with yourself ♪
♪ You take nothing less ♪
[Anna yells)
- Yeah!
Use your arms, use your arms to turn fast,
and make sure you're looking at the lift, 'kay?
♪ You name the time and place ♪
♪ I gotta solve this case ♪
♪ This time I think I can work it out ♪
♪ Yeah yeah yeah ♪
[Anna yells)
Hey, that one didn't even stink.
I mean, not totally.
- Hey, you two, you're supposed to be inside
doing the painting.
- Do you hear what she's saying?
- No, but I can guess.
- Matt said to come and get you.
- Sorry, mate, can't hear a word.
- You're supposed to be inside.
Painting!
Why are you out there with the only guy I actually like?
- Hold it firmly.
- Okay the kite's up, so now can I get on the board?
- I told you, for lesson one you don't even use the board.
You have to learn to control the kite first.
- Come on, that's for grummits.
I guarantee I can get up first go.
- Edge, it's a dangerous sport.
- Yeah, okay.
- We'll just take it one step at a time, right?
- Hey, you grab my sunnies for me?
I'm gonna need them if I have to stare at this kite all day.
[upbeat music)
- Edge, don't even think about it, get off the board!
You don't know the basics.
- Chill, how hard could it be?
- Get off the now, I mean it.
- Hah, easy peasy.
Hey, I didn't wanna go this way.
- Edge, release the kite!
Release it!
Release the kite.
[Edge groans)
You big idiot.
Why didn't you stop when I told you?
You could've been seriously hurt.
And you scratched my board.
- It's all right, I know what I did wrong,
and I'll be all over it the next time.
- There's not going to be a next time.
Don't you ever listen to anyone but yourself?
[soft music)
- You know, now that we're into it,
I'm sort of enjoying this painting thing,
in a cheesy lifestyle show sort of way.
- Hate to spoil your party guys,
but you should take a look at it from back here.
- Perri don't criticize unless you're gonna participate.
- Nice of you to join us, last.
- I hope that's just the undercoat.
- Well maybe it'll look better once
we've done the whole room.
- Trust me, it won't.
- Hey guys, how's it going.
- [Matt] Okay-ish.
- We're just not sure this shade of purple
is making the right statement.
- He means it sucks.
- Maybe we could buy some more paint.
- No money.
Besides, looks fine to me.
[kids groan)
- Simmo, that room is a rapidly evolving nightmare.
What're we gonna do about it?
- Nothing.
It's a team building exercise, let 'em solve the problem.
- Why are you being so inflexible?
- Don't you get it, Deb?
You think it was just luck that all the paint's that color?
- All right so let's put it to a vote.
Who's for continuing with the dark purple?
Come on, don't you wanna get this done?
- And who's against?
Right.
So Captain Control Freak loses.
- Forget about it, there's loads of comps
till the end of the season.
- That's what worries me.
I mean, I thought I nailed it and I only came third.
- Well since when is third such a bad result?
- Anything except first is a bad result.
- Staring at the score isn't gonna help.
Here's a radical idea, why don't we go inside
and help with the painting like we're supposed to?
- I know what I'd prefer to do.
- What?
- Check out the reef break.
Take the kiteboard out there.
- That's over five K's away, and since when
can you even kiteboard?
- Anna showed me.
- Oh yeah, Anna.
- Come on, I can't go alone.
I need someone to drive the ducky.
- If Simmo find out, he would k*ll us then eat us.
- Come on.
You know you want to.
[light music)
- All that cash, and this won't even do one wall.
- Looks like dark purple's back in.
- Over my dead body.
- That can be arranged.
- Hey!
This is a spray painting place, maybe they could help us.
- A spray painting place.
- That's brilliant, Fly.
Hang on guys.
- What's she doing?
Unbelievable.
- [Fly] I wonder what she's saying?
- I think it's more the body language.
- [Anna] Whatever is, it's working.
- They were gonna throw these out, look!
- Sure they're not all empty?
- Trust you to say that.
Watch.
This is so easy.
- [Police] Doing a spot of painting, are we?
- It's taking a lot longer than I thought.
- There it is!
[waves crashing)
- That's a serious break.
I think I'll pass on the kiteboarding lesson.
And we better not stay out here too long
or someone will notice we're gone.
- Bec, chill.
We might never get out here again, try and enjoy it, huh?
[rock music)
[Edge cheers)
Hey!
[Edge grunts)
- Hey, time to head back soon!
- One more wave, I wanna try for some air.
- Are you sure you're up for that?
[rock music)
[ominous music)
Edge, Edge?
Edge!
[Edge grunting)
[ominous music)
[breathing heavily)
You okay?
- Yeah, thanks.
- Let's get back to the boat.
- Where is the boat?
- It's caught in a rip, come on quick!
- Wait, if we go after it, we'll get caught in that rip too.
Then we're dead.
- Well then what'd we do?
- The kiteboard, we'll paddle in.
[calm rock music)
- This is what I was talking about.
We've had a ton of complaints from the locals,
they reckon a group of surfers did it.
- We told you, we're painting a room.
- Nobody paints a room with spray cans.
Can you four show me your hands, please?
Purple.
- It's a coincidence.
- Maybe.
What'd you say your name was again, miss?
- Perri, why?
- Perri is hot, hot, hot.
- Cute, but I wouldn't write that about myself, would I?
- You never know.
- In my country, we call this harassment.
- Calm down, I'm just saying that there's enough
coincidences here for me to start asking questions.
I might need to talk to your parents, your teachers,
the Academy.
- Please don't.
- Not my parents.
- That is unless of course I come back here tomorrow
and all these rocks are magically clean.
Then I might just forget the whole thing.
- So you want us to clean up something we didn't do?
- If you didn't do it, then you don't need to worry, do you?
- [Bec] We're not getting anywhere.
- [Edge] I know, the tide's too strong.
- If we're gonna die out here,
there's something I gotta ask.
- Who said anything about dying?
- It's possible.
So what's with you and Anna, then?
- Me and Anna?
We had a bet, that's all.
- A bet?
- Yeah, she reckons she'll be able to do the ariel reverse
before I could an ariel on the kiteboard.
- Is that why we're out here?
You brought me all the way out here and dragged me into this
to prove a point to some girl you've got a thing for?
- What, me and Anna, a thing for Anna?
Are you insane?
Why would you even think that?
Unless, are you jealous?
- Oh get lost.
[laughing)
Hey look, there's a fishing buoy, if we grab it,
we might not drift any further.
Come on!
You realize this whole disaster is down to you.
I mean, did you even know how to kiteboard properly
before we got out here?
But you still tried for an ariel because of stupid bet?
What were you thinking?
Edge come on, say something.
Cause right now your strong silent routine
is not doing it for me.
- Yeah, okay.
It was my fault, but I shouldn't have got you involved.
If anything would've happened to you,
I'd never forgive myself.
I mean it.
- [Bec] What're you doing?
- Nobody knows we're out here.
By the time they come looking it'll be too late.
- You'll leaving me here alone, as shark bait?
- Someone has to go for help, what choice is there?
- Just promise me you won't try
any more ariels on the way home.
- I promise.
[intense music)
[birds chirping)
- Couldn't find them?
- No and the rubber ducky's gone.
- Slackers, I bet you they're off surfing
some secluded beach break too.
- Yeah, half their luck.
- I thought this might help.
[music plays)
- German hip-hop, haven't we suffered enough?
- [Anna] No.
- Actually, this goes perfectly with rock cleaning.
- Yeah it's not bad.
- Wow, Blue Water High's first music video.
- [Matt] Yeah, cause we go off in Hamburg.
[cheering)
- Hey, hey!
Over here, help.
Help, please.
Look this way, come on.
Please!
Keep away, sharks.
Taste horrible.
Promise I do.
[hip hop plays)
- Nice work guys, that's five down.
- And eight more to go.
- Hey look, a kite.
- That's mine, can't believe it.
He took my board?
You're impossible.
What happened, are you all right?
- Get Simmo.
- What were you two thinking?
You know the rubber ducky's not for joy rides.
- It wasn't Bec's fault, I talked her into it.
- Yeah, well I already figured that one out.
Think Bec would be stupid enough to do something like this?
- I don't get it, where is she?
- Sure this is the right buoy?
- Yes, this is where I left her, I'm certain.
- Okay.
[birds chirping)
[door creeks open)
- Where's Bec, is she all right?
- [Heath] Edge, did you find her?
- I've rung search and rescue,
all we can do right now is wait.
Deb have you got her parent's phone numbers?
- Yeah, do you wanna call them or will I?
- I'll do it.
- No, Edge, I don't think that's a very good idea.
- I'll do it.
- Thanks, guys, man I owe you.
- Is that Mrs. Anderson?
It's Dean Edgely.
Yeah I'm at the Academy with Bec.
She's not here right now, that's--
- Bec! - Hi.
- [Edge] That's the reason--
- So good to see you. - We were worried sick,
are you okay?
[laughing)
- Mrs. Anderson, Deb wants to talk to you.
- [Deb] You wouldn't believe what happened.
- How did you get back?
- That's the weird thing about fishing buoys,
fishing boats actually use them.
- It's so good to see you.
- It's good to see you, too.
- Wouldn't look too happy, Edge.
I'm not finished with you.
- And that's not all you've got to worry about.
- Sorry, guys?
What did I do to you?
- Oh just run out on us, twice.
- [Fly] You didn't do any painting.
- Or rock cleaning.
- Rock cleaning?
- And you took my kite but without asking.
- Oh there is also the small matter of practically
getting me k*lled.
- What else can I do?
- [Heath] Yup looks like Solar Blue's surf team
have actually come up with a goods.
It's loud, it's brash, it's multicolored,
and it's definitely an improvement.
- Isn't it?
- [Heath] Oh, and is this the infamous fishing buoy?
- You bet, I'm not letting him forget this anytime soon.
- I wonder how he's going out there?
- Still hard at it, eh?
Debs got you rostered on for extra activities.
Pretty much 'round the clock.
- Can hardly wait.
- I was wondering if you had any suggestions for more
creative punishment.
- How 'bout extra coaching so you can teach me
some of those lame moves the judges lap up?
- Call that punishment?
- Oh yeah, you bet.
- Looks like you've got company.
I'll talk to you later.
- Hey on, big fella.
Just thought we'd come to lighten your load.
- Cheers, fellas, I could do with some help, hey.
[hip-hop plays)
- Here you go.
- Music is that is?
- No, no, we also wanted to make sure you're watching.
- While we go for a surf.
- Catch you later dude.
[cheering)
- You're mongrols.
Bec, I didn't try any ariels.
I just got back as fast as I could.
I wanted you to know that.
- Thanks.
