Meanwhile, a young boy named Matt (Danny Cooksey) is behaving erratically and causing trouble on the beach. His mother, an alcoholic, is unable to control him and seems to be more interested in partying than taking care of her son.
The Baywatch team decides to take Matt under their wing and give him some much-needed attention. In doing so, they discover that Matt is actually a talented artist and has a bright future ahead of him. They also learn that Matt's mother is struggling with addiction and needs their help as well.
