These Cort plots are fabu! The replacement beauty's sure taking her time. These songs mid episode awful as well.

Stories that make sense just aren't Baywatch. This one is a gem of bizarre random absurdities.

They don't let you donate to charities unless you get your buddy to dress up in a tux like a waiter on a yacht... Everybody knows that.

Watch. You'll think you're losing your mind.

Cort needs cash

Two stories this week. In the B plot Baywatch does something very rare. Continuity. Shauni has PTSD over what happened to Jill. We get one fact about Jill that's new. So that's nice. It's the same kind of plot Eddie has too often. In that she won't admit she has a problem. But there is some actual drama in this one. It all sorts itself out in the end of course.

Main plot is something the show has alas done before. Cort has a scheme. He also appears to be a con man. But whilst he is as self centred as ever he actually has a better motivation in this one. Which gives him some back story. Which is less interesting than the Jill thing. Despite all the obstacles the story throws in the way of him Mitch and Craig winning a big race to get the money he needs you know how it will turn out.

However it does manage a bit more tension in the race than I expected. So there was that.

Gina is the only one missing this week. Miss Keller has now permanently vanished which of course is not mentioned.

I would give this a seven or perhaps seven point five. Just losing a mark or so because it's a cort story. But Garner gets to do a bit more thanks to being the one doing the heart to heart talk when Craig isn't around. And for the first time in seven weeks yes I was counting we get a Newmie sighting. And he gets only his third bit of dialogue this season.

So for that last bit alone this one is worth it.
