In this episode of Baywatch, titled "Boys will be Boys," Mitch (David Hasselhoff) and the rest of the Baywatch team have their hands full as they attempt to tackle a series of emergencies that arise on the beach.
First up is a group of young boys who get themselves into trouble while playing a game of "shark attack." One of the boys gets caught in a fishing net and the team must work quickly to free him before he drowns. Meanwhile, there's trouble brewing at the nearby pier, where a group of rowdy teenagers are causing chaos and destruction.
As Mitch and his team work to keep these situations under control, they also have to contend with a new trainee lifeguard, Tyler (Ryan Hurst). Tyler is a talented athlete, but his cocky attitude and lack of experience create friction with the other lifeguards, particularly Cody (David Chokachi).
Things come to a head when Tyler's overconfidence leads him to take unnecessary risks on a rescue mission, putting himself and others in danger. Mitch must step in and teach Tyler the importance of following protocol and working as a team.
Throughout the episode, the team also grapples with personal issues. Mitch struggles with guilt over a past mistake, while Caroline (Yasmine Bleeth) reconnects with an old flame. Meanwhile, Cody faces the fallout from a bad decision he made a few episodes prior.
