22x17 - Raw Nerves

[bunniefuu]

[man] Whoo-hoo!

[Keith]
So, you know who is responsible
for the eight families

and a bunch of kids, and
nephews, nieces, grandkids?

Me.

We gotta finish
our season off.

This is not gonna be easy.

Our blood pressure is just like

your heart monitor
at the hospital.

Beep-bloop.
Beep-bloop.
Beep-bloop.

Stressed out.

[Johnathan] Big wave.

Watch out.
Hey, watch out, guys!

-[crew member] Watch out!
-Ah!

Whoa!

Feeling pretty good --
stressed out.

Oh!

We got a hydro leak
over here in the davit.

Oh!

Feeling pretty good.
Stressed out.

Wow.
Hang on, everybody.

Hang on, hang on, hang on!

Oh!

Oh!

[Keith]
Feeling pretty good.

Stress -- beeeeeeeeep.
Uh-oh.

That clock is ticking big time
right now.

OK, go!

[narrator]
of Dutch Harbor...

on the bairdi crab grounds...

[Monte speaking over phone]

Mouse, how are you doing?

[Keith]
How are your doctor
appointments going?

[Keith]
Right, Monte, I need to know
if you're coming back or not.

[Keith] I understand that.
I'm just checking in.

[Keith]
All right, OK.

Take care.
Love you, man.

Talk to you soon.
Bye.

...aboard the Wizard.

[Keith speaking]

I am by myself.

Stand by, guys.

...out there.
-[crew member] Roger!

My brother, he worked
like six on, six off,



Right now, let's hope that
the cardiologist gives him

a clean bill of health.

And I can pass the baton
to my brother.

We're going to have to fight
for every single crab we catch

because the weather is not
coming down.

I'm just going to creep into it
here, OK?

Whoo!

[Keith] You just gotta
white-knuckle this thing.

One hand on the [bleep] stick,
one hand on the throttle.

You keep kind of up and over,
and wiggling around,

and throttle back a little bit.

And keep the weather
off the crew.

-All right, coming up.
-[crew member] Do it!

Come on crab.

[suspenseful music plays]

[groans]

[bleep].

As soon as that pot breaks
the water, you've got to be

throttled up and heading in
the right direction.

You can't be [bleep] doing any
big snakes.

You've got to be just keeping
the boat beelining

for that next pot.

[crew]
It's no good, man.

Well, that sucks.

-Whoo!
-OK.

[Keith speaking]

[Keith speaking]

I'm trying to stay on top of
the throttles here.

Come on crab.

[melodic knocking]

-Put that here.
-Ugh!

Aye...

[Keith] This depth.
It's not [bleep] working,

We need 100 counts

to set Monte up,
to grind out this season.

Whoo!

[Keith] Uh-oh.

[crew] Whoa!

Ah!

[indistinct exclamations]

Whoa!

Everybody good?

Everybody good?

Yeah, Rog.

Good morning.

[Keith] We need to find crab
right now to put these pots on.

We have no clue
where we're going.


in Dutch Harbor...

[Neal speaking]

Yeah, let me see.

Oh my God!

And that thing is
so small, Neal.

That's the smallest screw
I've ever seen in my life.

I know.

...aboard the Time Bandit.

[Johnathan]
My brother Neal's got to
go to the dentist.

We've been waiting for
this guy to come in.

I can't, I can't do that
anymore.

We're losing too much money
in town.

If I can get Neal's teeth
fixed, I can leave.

After offloading $400,000 of
golden king crab...

[crew] Coming over.

...Captain Johnathan Hillstrand

supplants his planned
departure...

-[phone ringing]
-[Johnathan] Please.

...to service the implants
in brother Neal's mouth.

I bought dental implants
and they suck.

Recently, I've been having --
the bolts are falling out.

I'm lucky that I didn't
swallow it, I caught it in time.

Now it is really painful.

[Johnathan] Nope,
he's not gonna answer.

[automated voice speaking]

This is ridiculous.

Aye yi yi.

[Neal speaking]

So I guess the dentist is
not coming in.

The [bleep] flights
are canceled.

Well, don't make that be
the reason why we don't leave.

Got to do what we got to do.

[Johnathan]
That screw is so small, dude.

We gotta get one of these
younger guys with better eyes.

Hey, Steve!
Dr. Steven!

[Steve speaking]

Dr. Steven Roberts!

Hey, you're gonna be
a dentist today.

Remember when you knocked
that guy's tooth out

in that fight at the Vagabond?

That's us being a dentist.

OK.

[Neal speaking]

[Steve] It's so tiny.

There it is.

I'm using cheese as kind of
a glue, so I can pick up

the bolt without...

dropping it in --
down his throat.

OK.

I think it's
this one we figured.

-[Steve] OK.
-Pretty sure.

[Steve] OK.

Got it in there.

Is it turning for you?

Better? No?

-It's not clacking.
-[Steve] That means we did

something right.
Whoo-hoo!

Look at that,
we got you fixed.

[Neal] Sweet.

[Johnathan]
Hopefully that'll hold
up good enough.

[Neal] Yeah.

I'm gonna have to keep
tightening it every time I eat.

-That's just --
-That's just
the way it is.

[Johnathan] We just gotta
get the hell out of here.

That's all I know.
All right.

Hey guys...

[crew member] Yahoo!

Going fishing, baby!

[Johnathan] Let's go.

All right.
Shew!

Hopefully we go through
the gear once

and, uh, get Neal
to the dentist.



on the bairdi grounds...

All right.

[crew member] Roger.

...aboard the Aleutian Lady.

I've got 80,000 pounds of
bairdis left to catch.

So, I'm going to the southeast

and I'm gonna set away from
the ice edge.

I'm hoping we can find some
numbers we can grind on

to wrap up the season.

This has been a long trip.

We've had so many
ups and downs.

It's hard, and you miss a lot.

Uh, I talked to my kids
this morning for a few minutes.

[Todd speaking]

[Rick speaking]

He's gonna make this
his permanent job,

stepping it up and coming along.

But it's not easy.

When I talked to
my middle child yesterday,

his mom told me the first thing
that he does every morning

is wakes up
and grabs mom's phone

because he wants to call dad.

I'm like, that's hard to hear
that, but it's kind of nice,

too, knowing that he still
knows I'm...

there somewhere.

-[Rick speaking]
-[crew] Going over, Bravo 4.

-Oh, that's awesome.
-That's a big shot.

Whoo.

[crew] Going over!

Uh, watch...

Well, [bleep].

-It's all over.
-Yeah, it's over.

-Yeah, that was a lot of water.
-[bleep].

[indistinct]

[crew member]
I smell hydro-fluid.

[bleep]damn it.

Uh, we got a leak.

-Oh!
-[Rick speaking]

-Oh!
-Whoa!

-Yeah, OK!
-[bleep] [bleep].

Holy [bleep]!

-Oh!
-Whoa!

-It's -- it's --
-It's spraying, yeah.

It's just when you [bleep] swing
it out or swing it in.

Out of the ram?

On the Aleutian Lady...

A ram is a hydraulic cylinder,

so it controls our davit.

And the davit is the arm

that holds our block,
and the blocks are hauled.

That's how we haul our pots.

So the davit swings out,
swings in, and the ram gave out

on the inside, so it's blowing
hydraulic oil

out of the actual shaft.

-[wind whooshing]
-Oh damn, that's cold.

-[Rick] Yeah.
-All right, go ahead.

-[liquid hissing]
-Oh!

OK, hang on.

Oh, [bleep] me.

Yeah, we're [bleep].

So let's, uh...

[crew member] Roger.

[Rick] If we can't
fix this leak,

I'm gonna have
to head to Dutch.

[crew] Going over!



on the bairdi grounds...

-Mouse, how you doing?
-[Monte speaking over phone]

[Keith] OK.
Well, good news.

All right, OK, bye.

You heard it here first.

...aboard the Wizard.

Hi guys.

[crew member speaking]

[Keith] We're going
through it fast.

Getting this gear locked

and loaded on real good
fishing, then hand the boat to

my brother so that he can claim
that he is the Bairdi King.

So right now I'm gonna
take a chance.

Thread the needle right down
the 92-fathom line.



Well, it's a deep gamble.

This is deeper than anything
they set in the fall.

If this crab went shallow on us
and we're in the wrong depth,

I might set 100 blanks.

I might thread the needle here

between hero
and zero.

These might be the biggest
seas we've seen this season.

-OK?
-[crew speaking]

-[Keith speaking]
-[crew] Going over!

[Keith]
We're right on the edge.

Need to go deeper.

[crew] Going over!

[Keith] You can only see
two waves.

The third wave's invisible.

[bleep], too deep.

She can go just a little bit
shallower.

-Whoo!
-[indistinct]

Going over!

[bleep]...

[crew] OK, OK, OK!

-On The Wizard...
-[Keith speaking]

-[crew] OK, OK, OK!
-[groans]

-[heavy clank]
-Oh [bleep].

[bleep].

[Keith speaking]

Whoo!

Do me a favor, Len.

...come in your face.
All right.

[Len speaking]

[indistinct exclamations]

Something's fighting against me
[bleep] actually getting

something accomplished today,
but we don't have a choice.

Oh, oh, whoa!

All right, go ahead
and dump it.

I'm hoping we get on good crab
fast, and we can get back to

town and pick up Monte.



on the golden king crab
grounds...

[Neal] It just comes out
when you're eating.

It's only the bottom denture
that does that.

They just keep coming loose.

That's why I'm suffering
all this pain.

[Laura speaking]

Yeah, I know.

All right, thank you so much.

-[Laura speaking]
-OK, all right, bye.

...aboard the Time Bandit.

[Johnathan] Neal needs to go
to the dentist.

I need my brother to have
teeth so he can eat,

so he doesn't get
worthless and weak.

But that means I got to catch
my crab and try to get

a trip out of this.

We have to get through 30 pots
in about eight hours.

Weather's gonna be
right on our side.

We have some 35-footers running
around out here.

So...

You guys are gonna have to pull
pot and then run in and hide

while I run to the next one.

It's just the way to do it
when it's like this.

Clock's ticking.
Gotta go.

OK, all right.

Roger.

-Hallelujah.
-[crew member] Fish on,
baby, fish on.

Yeah, boy.

My man.

Crab, come here!

Whoo-hoo!

[indistinct exclamation]

[Johnathan]
Come on, crabbies.
Crab legs for dinner.

Let's see, uh...

-Oh yeah!
-Look at that pot!

-Dinner time!
-Boo-yah!

Yeah, baby!
Whoo-hoo!

That's a good pot, dude!

-Yeah!
-[crew member] Whoo!

[indistinct]

-[crew member #1] Whoo-hoo!
-[crew member #2] Whoo!

[crew member] Welcome aboard,
boys, welcome aboard!

-[crew member speaking]
-We'll set that back.

We'll dump that one back.
Whoo!

Yeah!

Quick as you can, and then
run and hide.

]-Roger!
-[Johnathan] We got
a lot of pots to go.

-Going over!
-Roger!

Run, run, run, run, run!

Hey, watch out.

OK.
All right.

Roger!

Whoa-oh!

Wow, oh!

Watch the rail, guys.
Hang on, hang on guys.

[crew member] Hey, heads up,
heads up, heads up.

Whoo!

[groans]

[crew] Oh, man!

[Johnathan]
That was a lot of water.

All right.
Come on down.

[crew]
Let's go get her!

[Johnathan] Here we go.

[crew] Whoo!

-Yeah, this is dangerous.
-Hey, watch out!

[Johnathan] Come on,
let's hook it over.

Hey, stop! Stop!

-Come on baby!
-[crew member #2] Come on crabs!

[crew member] What do we got?
What do we got?

[Johnathan] Uh-oh.
Big wave.

Watch out!
Hey, watch out, guys!
Watch out!

-Watch out!
-Ah!

[Johnathan] Uh-oh.
Big wave.

On the Time Bandit...

Watch out!
Hey, watch out, guys!
Watch out!

-Watch out!
-Ah!

[grunting]

[groans]

[crew member] That was
a big one.

-Wow!
-[laughing]

OK, big wave.
Big, big wave.

Came over the wave wall.

OK, guys...

-Yeah, Rog.
-Roger.

[Johnathan speaking]

-[crew member] Give me
some love.
-[cheering]

-Yes, yes.
-[cheering continues]

Hallelujah!

-Whoo!
-Wow, it's crazy big crabs.

-Crazy big ones!
-We got it!

-Whoo-hoo!
-[crew member] Big
baby monsters!

-[crew member #1] Oh yeah!
-[crew member #2] Wow!

-Wow, it's that guy.
-[crew member #3] Wow!

[laughing]

[Johnathan speaking]

-Going over!
-Get some more!

Get up front...

High speed!

[Johnathan]
We'll get our rhythm down.

We got a lot of pots left here.

And then we're sh**ting
to town.

Fix Neal's teeth, hopefully.



on the Aleutian Lady.

All right, let's see how this
goes as it hauls.

...we're gonna be able to
do this.

[crew member speaking]

I still don't have a ram

for a long-term fix
on the davit.

It should hold pressure as
long as it's all the way out.

In theory, we should still
be able to keep hauling.

So we moved all that gear out
deeper, and I'm hauling from

the south to the north.

All right, here we go.

I mean, I still got 80,000
pounds of bairdi I gotta catch

to wrap up the season.

Oh-h*, yeah.

Looks like there's crab
in that one.

Whoa!

Crab looks good.

Nice finally seeing
some numbers.

Crab count, two-two-three.

Boom.
Hell yeah.

[crew member speaking]

Hey, hey, the handle
just broke.

-The handle just broke.
-[bleep].

[crew member speaking]

Now we have another
hydraulic issue.

The lever for the picking hook
slides in a slot.

Well, the housing broke.

The whole handle fell off.

Yeah, let's grab the crane.

[crew member] I know.

[crew member #2] OK.

They're working on trying to
get the pot on board the boat,

but also lasso the picking hook
so it doesn't go flying.

Watch out!
You got to watch out!

Watch your head!
Just throw it around it.

Good shot, good shot.
Again.

All right, I got you, bud.
Dude, be careful!

[exhales heavily]
[bleep].

Almost, watch --
watch your head.

-Yeah!
-All right,
get the [bleep] down.

Get the [bleep] down.

-[indistinct]
-What y'all think of that?

Yee-haw!
Whoo!

This ain't no [bleep] "whoo"
moment, [bleep].

This whole [bleep] season is
a bad omen.

I was standing there trying to
hold the pot, so we could

secure the picking hook.

That big metal shackle came
down and hit me in the head.

My head does hurt pretty bad.

This right here.

It's pretty heavy,
heavy-duty [bleep].

[coughing]

[Todd speaking]

-Shaky and feel
like everything...
-Feeling dizzy or lightheaded?

Yeah, yeah, everything
is going like this.

-The wah-wahs?
-Yeah.

Yeah, go, gear down
and go sit down.

Ice, put ice on it.

-[indistinct]
-We're heading downstairs.

[bleep].

How you doing, dude?

[Todd speaking]

-So you feeling nauseous?
-Yeah, I'm all shaky.

-So where'd it hit you?
-Right, right there.

-[Rick] Right on the top?
All right.
-Yeah.

You got a wee bit of
a concussion, brother.

Feel more bad for the guys
that I'm not out there helping.

Oh, dude, don't worry about it
right now.

We gotta go in.
I'll bring you to the clinic.

We'll get you
checked out there.

I feel super tired.
Like, my eyes feel heavy.

[Rick]
Well, maybe I'll grab one of
the guys like John

to come and hang out with you.

He'll piss you off enough to
keep you awake.

[sighs]

[bleep].

[Rick speaking]

[crew member] Roger!

I got pots full of crab,
but that only takes me so far.

Now I got a guy
with a concussion.

I like Todd.



[Keith speaking]

-...on the Wizard.
-[crew] Roger!

[crew] Whoo!

[Keith] I really want to get
out of here,

because I am like, I'm worn out.

Can't do this anymore.

Monte has checked out solid
on every test he's had.

So, he's gonna come back.

And I'm going home.

Right now, we gotta find crab,
knock on wood.

[three knocks]

-Let her rip, man, let's go.
-[crew] Whoo!

Come on, give me over
a hundred count, would you?

-[indistinct]
-Yeah.

-[crew cheering]
-Un, un, un.

Big crab!

-Yeah!
-[crew member] Whoo!

So many crab.

Let's hope it holds up.
And if it does...

[crew member speaking]

[Keith]
On to the next one.

We got some oil here.

[bleep], we got something
going on up there.

I see it dripping right there.

Bottom right of
the outboard rim.

Drip.

[Keith speaking]

Something's leaking up there
on the crane.

[groans]

-[Keith speaking]
-On the Wizard...

Something's leaking up there
on the crane.

[groans]

Is it a fitting?
Can we tighten it?

All right.

Right now, I gotta haul gear.

I can't haul gear
without a crane.

Talk to me, talk to me, man.
What we got here?

Down!
Careful.

[Joe speaking]

-[Joe] It's a steady
[bleep] leak, man
-OK.

It looks to me like
the big block at the bottom end

of the ram
has got a little hole,

pinhole in it or something.
-OK.

Which there ain't really
nothing we can do with that.

So, a couple little drips here
and there is normal,

but it sounds like we're past
that point.

Probably gotta head back
to town.

[Joe speaking]

[Keith] The gear's set up,
I think we're dialed in.

I'm gonna keep hauling pots
and sit back.

And then get the hell out
of here.

And cut her loose.



on the golden king crab
grounds...

Run and hide, come back out.
Run and hide, come back out.

...aboard the Time Bandit.

[Johnathan]
My brother Neal needs to go to
the dentist, so...

We'll grab these pots as fast
as we can so we can get out of

here and go to town.

All right, guys.

[cheering]

-[indistinct cheering]
-Go get her!

All right.

[crew member] Let's go!

-[crew member] Come on, baby!
-Here we go!

[crew member] I see, I see,
I see, I see it!

[crew cheering]

-Whoa-h*!
-Big ones.

-Oh dude,
that's a [bleep] beauty.
-Oh yeah, oh yeah.

-[crew cheering]
-That's a beauty, dude!

-[cheering continues]
-Big, big goldens.

[Johnathan]
Golden paradise.

Big boys, baby!

[indistinct exclamations]

-46, baby!
-[crew cheering]

-Stick it right on back.
-h*!

Thanks guys, good work.

Good way to watch out for
each other.

[Johnathan] All right,

time to get to Dutch,
get this crab off.

I'm gonna take Neal to
the clinic,

get his teeth fixed.

Giddy up!
Yah, horse, yah!
Giddy up!

[Rick]
How's it going?

[Todd]
It's going.

-That's what they gave me.
-All right.

"Todd Meadows has been seen
by the clinic.

"He needs to be cleared
by neurology.

I do not recommend he go back
out to sea."

[Rick] All right, well,
let's get in the car.

Yeah, [bleep] man.
I mean...

since they didn't sign off,
and recommend seeing

a neurologist first,
I would be...

neglecting my duties
as a captain if I went against

what that says.
-Yeah.

I need to get him home,

get looked at.

And when we come up to do
our next offload, I'm expecting

him at the dock,

catching our lines,
ready to go.

[Todd]
All right, well, see you soon.

Will do.

[Keith]
I love what I do.

But what I do takes a toll.

Yeah, you do it like that.

[Keith]
Everybody thinks I'm up here

just doing nothing
but driving a boat.

Have no idea the demands of
the guy sitting here.

I have to understand
my limitations.

-[crew member #1] All right, in.
-[crew member #2] That's good.

Let's see what happens.
Boom up.

[Monte]
How's it going, bro?

Look what the cat drug in.

Had better days.

Hopefully you've had worse.

We've had worse.

That ain't
no leak, it's fixed.

It's fixed now.

All right,
we'll keep you posted.

Safe travels.

-Hang in there, bro.
-[Monte] Don't worry,
I got it, man.

You hang in there.

[Monte speaking]

Well, made it back.

Doctors really didn't find

anything rock-solid
wrong with me.

You know, as far as
my brother, you know,

it's obviously best
that he's not going out

bairdi fishing right now.

Stress level can get to just
about anybody,

but he's obviously taking it
over and above what's

healthy for anybody.

Overhead!

[Johnathan]
We made it by the skin of
Neal's teeth.

[crew member] Down!

How's your mouth doing?

It's in there, it ain't
coming back out till...

It's in there tight
so I can eat.

-I'm just mal --
-Yeah, [bleep], man.

-[Johnathan] At least
you can eat.
-[Neal] Yeah.

[Johnathan]
Never go anywhere without
my brother Neal,

that's for damn sure.

We offloaded.
We came in with 50.

Got to go back out and get


I'm happy.

Go get it done.

Let's go.
