While rowing out in the ocean, Mitch rescues an underwater photographer, named Linda, floating on some wreckage. Linda's somewhat disjointed, frantic story about something attacking her in an underwater cave which killed her partner and destroyed her boat is misconstructed by Kay Morgan, an ambitious, publicity seeking newspaper reporter, who creates a media frenzy by starting rumors about a "creature in the bay." Harvey Miller, the new lifeguard and prankster, benefits from the events by selling undersea creature T-shirts. Meanwhile, Shauni rescues a young girl from drowning and soon becomes compelled to rescue the girl, her brother and their mother from the life they live in the slums of South-Central L.A., much to Eddie's chagrin. While Shauni deals with her possessive father who disapproves of her lifeguard job, Mitch also pressures Captain Thorp to ask for funding for new advanced motorboats, called Scarabs, for the team.。一味的付出换来的只有伤害。。不知道从什么时候开始,读书,上名校,去大城市,找一份高薪工作,成了无可厚非的选择,好像,读书,就是为了赚钱,理想就是得到高薪,金钱成了衡量一个人是否有理想,是否成功的标准。 故事是一个非常普通的大学毕业生,从对自己工作和生活的不满意,与父母的别扭开始,通过对一个因为金钱导致家庭破裂而抑郁和消沉的男人的误会,慢慢理解了金钱和人生,事业和生活之间的关系,并且,克服来自世俗的偏见,最终帮助了那个男人重新开始生活,也成就了自己的人生的故事。 通过本故事希望引起人们对自己事业选择、人生抉择的一些思考,并且,通过对一些先进人物和道德模范的事迹,以及主人公自己的思想转变来让人们思考,到底什么才是我们的理想?。
