From headquarters, Caroline sees that the local surfers are getting territorial again. When Mitch is forced to make a rescue, the locals and the victim's friend end up in a fight, but Logan breaks up the fight. Logan is still pursuing his business venture of Aussie swimwear and he has an important meeting with a major clothing manufacturer. But since his car is with a mechanic, he has to borrow one of the other lifeguards' cars.

No one is willing to let Logan borrow their car, but Logan takes Cody's car without permission, when he has found out from Newmie that Cody is on a 24-hour-shift. Unfortunately for Logan, he gets involved in a collision which injures a pregnant woman. Logan quickly gets out of his car and tries to rescue the victim. When the police arrive, he tells them that the driver took off and that he saw the whole thing from the beach.

The next morning, the police arrive at headquarters in order to take Cody down to the station. When he is about to leave for the police station, he notices that his car is gone. When Cody finds Logan's leather bracelet in the car, he is convinced that Logan is the guilty one.

Meanwhile, Hobie and his friends are having a paintball war at the beach. Hobie's friend Terri gets stung by a wasp and has to be taken to the hospital. Mitch and Stephanie don't agree over the number of hours that have been assigned to Mitch. Stephanie has ignored Mitch's seniority and has given open hours to Cody. She claims that Mitch is never available due to his moonlighting as a P.I. When they can't agree on a solution, Hobie suggests they can settle things by staging a paintball war on the beach. They like the idea and Stephanie recruits Logan, C.J. and Hobie to her team while Mitch recruits Cody, Terri, Caroline and Newmie to his team.

During the war, Cody and Logan ends up in a fight and Cody almost falls down a cliff. He is brought back to safety with the help of Mitch and Logan. Also, C.J. discovers a sea lion on the beach. C.J. brings him to headquarters where he almost destroys the first aid room. Therefore C.J. takes him to their apartment. But when the sea lion ruins Caroline's party dress, C.J. is forced to find an owner for the sea lion. It turns out that the sea lion has run away from his owner and he belongs to a man named Ryan Edwards.
