Mitch who wants Manny back in rookie school, tries to convince the Chief that the regulations against contact lenses are out of date and unfair. The Chief decides to let Manny join rookie school again if Mitch decides to take the job as the new Captain. When Lani, April and Skylar are out swimming in the water, a crazy jet skier starts driving around them. The tether of Aprils rescue can tangles on the jet ski intake and April is dragged through the water struggling for breath. When the jet skier suddenly stops, April knocks her head on the jet ski. The jet skier drives away and Lani and Skylar help April to shore. April doesnt want anyone to find out about this, because that would make her look like a bad lifeguard, and Lani and Skylar promise to keep it a secret. The next day, April feels dizzy and falls into the water while she is climbing the cargo net. Her foot is trapped in the net while her head is under water. Hobie has to rescue her. Later they see the jet skier again. Cody and Newmie captures him and it turns out to be Richie, the guy that didnt make it through rookie school. Meanwhile, Manny returns to Mitchs office to apologize. He has decided to accept Mitchs offer about a work at the beach club. He will earn money for a laser surgery. Mitch then tells Manny the good news that he is officially back in rookie school again. When Mitch sees the rookies, he remembers his own rookie year 25 years ago. He used to meet a fellow rookie named Betsy on the pier every night. When Betsy left for college, he never saw her again. Now Mitch is surprised to meet her again 25 years later. She has a family now and just wanted to say goodbye to Mitch one last time. Hobie ends up winning the rookie competition and finishes ahead of Manny. Hobie wins Rookie of the Year honors and chooses Zuma as his beach. He wants to get out from under the shadow of his famous father.moreless
