00:00The
00:11reality is the Bering Sea can be a hostile place.
00:14Be nice to get through this season without any major injuries.
00:19We're pretty much halfway there.
00:23People get desperate to start making mistakes.
00:30Is it chain caught?
00:33Yeah, it's caught down the webbing.
00:36The harder and faster you push, you know, the more you get into it.
00:40With everybody.
00:43Higher or lower, what are you going to do?
00:46I want to get inside Wild Bill's little box.
00:49Ay-yi-yi.
00:51We need a little divine intervention.
00:54Look at that!
00:57Our job is to go fishing.
00:59I'm not here playing games.
01:02Oh!
01:03Get out!
01:06Get out!
01:15225 miles northeast of Dutch Harbor.
01:18First clock coming up.
01:22On the Time Bandit.
01:24Showtime, baby!
01:25Showtime!
01:33I'm out of faith.
01:34I've loved God.
01:37I know he blesses me all the time.
01:41Let's hope we see some crab legs.
01:43Two days.
01:44That'll go down, off wood, come back out and do it again.
01:45Hopefully we're not too far west.
01:46In 500 feet of water, Captain Jonathan Hillstrand looks to 60 pots to bring up his promised 31,000 pounds of Red King crab for delivery.
01:50Miss here will be devastating for us.
01:51Come on, crabies.
01:52Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.
01:53Or risk losing his quota to a faster fishing vessel.
01:57We got the first spot coming up.
01:58See what we get.
01:59What the hell?
02:00What the hell?
02:01looks to 60 pots to bring up his promised 31,000 pounds
02:05of Red King crab for delivery.
02:08This here will be devastating for us.
02:10Come on, crabby's.
02:12Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop.
02:13Or risk losing his quota to a faster fishing vessel.
02:17We got the first spot coming up.
02:22See what we get.
02:26What the hell?
02:27No!
02:30I don't like that.
02:31I don't like that at all.
02:33I hate, I hate that.
02:37No good.
02:38That's me, please.
02:42Damn, nothing.
02:51We're just getting started, you know.
02:54Here we go.
02:56Come on!
02:59I'm going to get what God gives me.
03:01Come on, crab legs.
03:03Boom.
03:04This is not what we were looking for.
03:07Oh, yay, yay.
03:08Not so much fun.
03:11Sort of spotty right here.
03:14We need a little guidance.
03:16I think we needed a little, a little divine intervention.
03:21Just got to stick with it.
03:24Just keep pushing, pushing, pushing.
03:30I don't know what to do yet.
03:39Look at that.
03:40Oh, right there.
03:44I'm right next to the boat.
03:46Woo-hoo!
03:48Wow!
03:53Whoa, look at that!
03:55Captain!
03:56They're coming!
03:57They're coming!
03:58They're coming!
03:59They're coming!
03:59They're coming!
04:00What the hell is going on here?
04:09Wow, that's amazing.
04:11That's amazing!
04:12Wow!
04:21Wow.
04:22Crazy.
04:23I've never seen more dolphins in my life.
04:27Like, big, big, big.
04:32Oh, damn it!
04:35There must be 3,000.
04:373,000 porpoise.
04:38I've never seen nothing like this.
04:40Woo!
04:41Woo!
04:42Woo!
04:43I'm amazing.
04:47There's a big school of dolphins between you and I there.
04:50Yeah.
04:54That is crazy.
04:57I've never seen this many in 45 years.
05:02Got friends here come for you, had some luck.
05:05It's a pretty good sign.
05:06Trying to tell us something.
05:11They're feeding on something, and pieces fall down.
05:14And those crab feed on that feed, too.
05:16And the crab start schooling up and following the right
05:19along with them on the bottom.
05:22Let's follow these guys.
05:27I'm going to pull these pods.
05:28And then turn.
05:31Turn down this way a little bit.
05:34And all the porpoises.
05:36Porpoises, porpoises, porpoises.
05:40Found us a miracle.
05:45The chase is on!
05:47I love it!
05:4825 miles east, on the Pacific Mariner.
05:58This kind of derby season, if you see any sign of life,
06:01just set all your pots on it.
06:03Suck up what you can get before anyone else moves in
06:05and takes your craft.
06:07Because they are.
06:08They're my craft.
06:09They're my craft.
06:12They bought this boat.
06:13We got payments to make.
06:16After pouring their savings into a down payment
06:18on the Pacific Mariner,
06:22Captains Jack Bunnell and Steve Harley-Davidson
06:25hunt 55,000 pounds of Red King crab
06:28before their $5,000 of daily fuel and food expenses
06:33eat at their margins.
06:34All right, guys.
06:38Here we go.
06:39First spot coming up.
06:41Roger!
06:48You're good!
06:59Come on, come on, come on.
07:01Show me some love.
07:03Uh-oh.
07:13What the hell?
07:19Uh-oh.
07:24Hmm.
07:25Not good.
07:31Sex?
07:32Damn.
07:33Is this the first one?
07:34Is this the first one?
07:35Yes.
07:44Damn you!
07:45F***!
07:48Fork ramp.
07:51Huh.
07:53This sucks.
07:55This is not working.
07:57No.
07:57All straight.
07:58I think we're on hard bottom.
08:00I don't know.
08:06You know, I've been watching Bill there on the AIS
08:08and he's just staying in that one same spot.
08:12He's right up between the depot and the bowling pin.
08:15Let me give him a call and see what the heck he says.
08:2133 miles northeast.
08:24How are you feeling?
08:27Um, I don't know.
08:29On the summer bay.
08:30It's really weird when somebody tells you
08:31you're going to have all these horrible things happen to you.
08:33You just kind of sit around and wait for them to happen.
08:35So...
08:36You know that everything I say,
08:38because I'm in love, right?
08:41You need to toughen up and suck it up with your mouth.
08:45Oh, you're hilarious.
08:46You're hilarious.
08:48All right.
08:49I appreciate you.
08:50I appreciate you, honey, and I love you.
08:52All right.
08:53Bye-bye.
08:54Bye.
09:00Yeah!
09:02Woo!
09:04Holy smokes.
09:08There's big legs in there.
09:09That looks good.
09:11Holy .
09:1241 crab.
09:21Yeah, baby.
09:2241.
09:2341.
09:24Real fishing, baby.
09:26Real fishing.
09:27Woo!
09:32I'll be so happy to get finished with this stuff.
09:34Get off the hormone, get the cancer gone, get on with life.
09:39We put this gear on top of this little strip we found.
09:43It's been kind of our magic spot here.
09:46It's not a very big area, but it's staying steady.
09:50Yeah!
09:51Woo!
09:52Keep it right here.
09:53Big one.
09:54Yeah!
10:03Hello.
10:05Hey, Bill, it's Harley.
10:07Harley, what are you doing?
10:09Well, I got over into some hard bottom or some damn thing.
10:13It looks, it feels like the crab were here, but they're gone.
10:17I see you've just been staying in that same spot for quite a while.
10:23Just wondering if you got any more room for another boat in there.
10:3042!
10:31Jackie Robinson!
10:33Hello?
10:3442!
10:3542!
10:36Um...
10:45Well, I got a postage stamp.
10:48If you could maybe go a little above or a little below, it'd probably be all right.
10:53Nice.
10:54Let's just call it 47-3 and, uh, the 43.
10:59I'll just stay right outside that.
11:02That won't be interfering with your stuff.
11:05Sounds good, man.
11:07I hope, uh...
11:08I hope you get on him.
11:09Right up.
11:10We'll keep in touch, eh?
11:11Later.
11:12In the last decade, decade and a half, I haven't been real big on partnerships.
11:17They haven't really worked out.
11:19But, uh, I've known Harley for damn near 35 years.
11:23Pretty good dude.
11:25He can catch his own crab, so if he asks for help, he's...
11:28He must be at a hard spot there, so...
11:31We'll see what happens.
11:33...in Dutch Harbor.
11:35You got a name for your kid yet?
11:38On the Northwestern.
11:39Not yet.
11:40I don't know if it's a boy or a girl, so...
11:42Don't you like Carl's Jr.?
11:44No.
11:45Never name my kid after you.
11:46I don't want him to be a fag.
11:52I got an opinion.
11:53Uh-oh.
11:54Oh, no.
11:55If it's a girl, how about Julia?
11:57No.
11:58How about Sigri?
11:59No.
12:00Well, the less she reminds me of you, the better.
12:06I love the fact that, uh, Mandy's pregnant again.
12:09Clark's all excited for his new baby to come.
12:14As he prepares for the birth of his fourth grandchild.
12:18Before you know it, there'll be another little one running around.
12:22I would rather be at home and, uh, not be out here,
12:26but the reality is we gotta get offloaded and start our Eastern Bear die season.
12:35Captain Sig Hansen and son-in-law Clark Pedersen deliver their last 24,000 pounds of red crab
12:43before targeting their $300,000 Eastern Bear die quota.
12:47All right, get ready.
12:51We'll get the crab off the boat, and we gotta rig our gear back over.
12:55Get going for the next one.
13:13Hey, how's it going?
13:14Why, what?
13:18Are you still at the doctor right now?
13:20Okay.
13:22Well, I mean, is it, is it really bad right now?
13:27Are you okay?
13:28Is the baby at risk?
13:37Are you okay?
13:39I mean, I can leave right now.
13:52Okay.
13:53All right.
13:54Love you.
13:55All right.
13:56Talk to you soon.
13:57How's it going?
14:10It's going all right.
14:11This radio's giving me trouble.
14:13There's nothing we can't fix before we leave.
14:15Well, I just got off the phone with Mandy, and it's, I don't know, it's probably not the
14:20best time, but I wanted to keep you in the loop.
14:22She was having some complications with some bleeding going on.
14:28Bleeding?
14:29Yeah.
14:31She went to the doctor.
14:35They told her that she's going to get to see a specialist here in the next couple of
14:39days.
14:43If you need to go home, then do it.
14:46I know, but as of right now, we don't know yet.
14:50That's the bottom line.
14:51So I can't jump to worst case scenario right now.
14:56All right.
14:57Then if that's the case, let's just move forward.
14:59Okay.
15:03Go out, do what we're supposed to do.
15:05And if there's anything that really goes sideways, then we'll get you in.
15:12All right.
15:13We'll be down there.
15:14We'll get stuff ready.
15:15I don't like to jump to conclusions.
15:23Mandy, she's not going to get emotional before she has the facts.
15:29So I think it's going to be worse for Clark than it's going to be for her.
15:33So he just, Clark needs to keep his head in the game.
15:37Keep our fingers crossed everything goes well.
15:40230 miles northeast.
15:44I mean, I've never seen nothing like this.
15:55There's five and six in the air at the time.
15:57That's crazy.
16:00That's the craziest I ever saw.
16:02There's got to be 3,000 porpoises around us, dude.
16:05I can jump as far as you can see.
16:07On the time bandit.
16:12There's just a pile of them.
16:14Crazy.
16:15I've never seen that ever.
16:18Chasing a rare multi-species herd of thousands of dolls' porpoises and Pacific white-sided dolphins that feed on squid and fish.
16:28I think we got the brine in the ranch.
16:33Captain Jonathan Hillstrand prepares to set 60 pots, betting that falling tentacle and scale scraps will lure King Crab in time for his offload in 72 hours.
16:46There's four miles of bank I never checked over here.
16:59It's a huge canyon.
17:00So I'm going to go over here and follow the dolphins.
17:04Set on black.
17:06Time bandit black.
17:08Roger.
17:09Roger.
17:10OK, guys.
17:12Skim over it as quick as you can.
17:13Got to go in two days.
17:15Roger.
17:16Whoo!
17:17Going over.
17:21We've got to find some crap for these pods.
17:23We've got to find it quick.
17:24Right over.
17:26Roger.
17:29I got you.
17:30Follow me, baby.
17:3558 miles northeast.
17:36It's going to be eight-tenths of the mile.
17:42On the Pacific Mariner.
17:45I've seen Bill up here hanging around this spot.
17:49But he was in this area for quite some time.
17:51Then I said, okay.
17:55We've got to get it on that.
17:56Yep.
17:58Gambling that they can catch $800,000 of Red King crab
18:02just half a mile from Wild Bill's hot spot in the Northeast.
18:07Hopefully we didn't miss out on the action.
18:11Captains Jack and Harley pull the first of a 60-pot string.
18:18First spot coming up.
18:20Roger.
18:23If it be a 20-25 crab, we'll be fine.
18:27Come on, crab.
18:33Huh?
18:34Woo!
18:38Oh, yeah!
18:39Yeah, yeah, yeah!
18:40Oh, yeah!
18:42Oh, yeah!
18:43Look at that.
18:43Woo!
18:44Oh, that's a good one.
18:45That's a good pot.
18:47All sorts of critters.
18:49Woo-hoo!
18:51Holy...
18:52Holy...
18:5430-3-0!
18:58Wild Bill was on or something.
19:01Go!
19:02Woo!
19:03Woo!
19:05Oh, boy!
19:08Woo!
19:09This is working good, buddy.
19:12Oh, yeah!
19:14Oh, no, no!
19:1945!
19:21A few picks through this stuff.
19:22Oh, yeah!
19:26Yeah, baby!
19:28Woo, baby!
19:29Holy...
19:30Ha, ha, ha, ha!
19:36Keep it right on course there.
19:38Perfect.
19:41I don't know if you can get up higher or lower.
19:44What are you going to do?
19:46What's, uh...
19:47What's in Bill's little secret box here?
19:49Yeah, just let him have his box, man.
19:52He's gonna give him respect.
19:54He pulled us over here.
19:55Let's just let him have that spot.
19:58He's not a cartographer.
19:59He's not making his own maps.
20:01He can't just say where I can go and where I can't.
20:05And the best crabbing that we know of
20:07is right here in front of us.
20:09Dude.
20:11Friends and partners are only gonna believe you
20:13if you're honest.
20:14That's how Sig and Bill and...
20:20No, I never got that way with Keith.
20:21But I gotta...
20:22You know, I mean, I've got...
20:23I've had partners throughout the years.
20:25Yeah!
20:25Woo!
20:27This is what we do.
20:28We hunt down crab.
20:30This'll fill our tanks.
20:32Let's get what we can.
20:33Yeah.
20:34And we won't do it again.
20:37Yeah, okay.
20:37All right.
20:40Thanks.
20:46I want to get inside Wild Bill's little box.
20:5477!
20:56Woo!
21:01All right, guys.
21:02Get ready.
21:03We're just gonna...
21:03Set back.
21:06Roger.
21:07You can't just be drawing lines on you.
21:15This isn't his ocean.
21:17No, no, we're...
21:19I'm just trying to catch the crab and go home.
21:23The quicker I can do it, the better.
21:30110 miles northeast of Dutch Harbor.
21:33You want to move that crane down a little bit?
21:36Keep coming over.
21:38Starboard.
21:40Yep.
21:42On the northwestern.
21:45We're gonna start setting our pots for bear guy.
21:48Right now, my plan is to just get the gear in the water, not fishing a lot of pots.
21:55Oh.
21:56But because of that, I think I'll be a little more mobile, but because of that, I think I'll be a little more mobile, and we can move around a little quicker.
22:04Responsible for catching 40,000 pounds.
22:06I'm very concerned about Mandy, you know, she's already had some issues with the baby, so I'm gonna start closer to town than normally we would be, and so I think just this is the place to start.
22:20Captain Sieg foregoes the traditional Eastern Bear Dye Crab Grounds 100 miles farther north, in case Mandy needs family by her side in Seattle, Washington.
22:33I think everybody here just kind of wants to get this done.
22:37It's just not a normal season right now for me.
22:41You know, Clark, I know that it's affecting him, but once we start fishing, I'm hoping that everybody can keep their heads in the game.
22:51It's not the way you want things to be, but that's life.
22:57We can get these off, and we can start setting it in here.
23:00These guys were running up.
23:02You got that chain?
23:04Not yet.
23:05Hold on.
23:10Is the chain caught?
23:11Yeah, it's caught down to...
23:13Where have you...
23:14Come on.
23:19What's the first number?
23:21Well, it'll be up there.
23:23Clark's on the side.
23:24You can't see it.
23:26What do you say?
23:26Number one?
23:27You got it?
23:29Yeah.
23:32Overboard.
23:33Oh.
23:34Oh.
23:37Head overboard.
23:40Head overboard.
23:41Overboard.
23:43What happened?
23:46Who is it?
23:48The Clark of the Game Guy.
23:51Grab the ring.
23:52I'm going to bring it around.
23:55Head over.
23:56Head over.
23:56Get a sling on it.
23:58Okay.
23:59Put a sling on it.
24:02Okay.
24:02Did you get it?
24:07Overboard!
24:09Frank!
24:13Did you get it?
24:16Hold it!
24:18Hold it!
24:20Got it!
24:22Put a sling on him!
24:24Damn, hold a sling!
24:25OK.
24:27Did you get it?
24:28You got it?
24:33Touch him!
24:35Got it?
24:36You got it?
24:37You got it!
24:42One more!
24:46Ready?
24:49Freeze!
24:52Go down!
24:54You got the sling?
24:56Yeah, come up!
24:59Easy!
25:08Just get the guys inside!
25:28Ready?
25:30Get this off!
25:31Get it off!
25:32Get it off!
25:34Can you get in that shower?
25:35Somebody grab in the shower!
25:38Get a blanket.
25:42Are you all right?
25:43Yeah.
25:44That's not supposed to happen on this boat!
25:46That's not supposed to happen on this boat!
26:11Well, he's done getting that shower warm up, all right?
26:14Yeah.
26:15Yeah.
26:16Good.
26:17Hu, you're warm up.
26:18OK.
26:19Yeah.
26:20Ha ha!
26:21Yeah.
26:23You're warm up, all right?
26:27Thank you, mate.
26:29OK.
26:30Yeah.
26:31Yeah.
26:33Yeah.
26:34We're young, man.
26:36Nice.
26:37Yeah.
26:38Oh, that's...
26:39Yeah.
26:40I've never had anybody go in the water, you know, it happened so fast.
26:49I mean, I just turn around right there, and the next thing you know, like that.
27:10That's why family on boats, it's, it gets too close, it's too personal, and you think you've prepared for everything, and you're not.
27:33You're good?
27:35Yeah, I'm good.
27:37You can't take any chances like that, it's not worth it.
27:40It's not worth your life.
27:46What happened?
27:48Clark slipped.
27:50I, I reached out for him, I had my camera in my hand.
27:58And I didn't, and you know, I was too far over, and then, and then we're in.
28:07Hey, Mandy.
28:10Hey, how's it going?
28:12Uh, you want to talk to Clark?
28:15He's right here.
28:17Just keep going that way.
28:19Okay.
28:23Hey, Mandy, what's up?
28:25Well, I just got my results, and the doctor said it was a subchorionic hemorrhage.
28:34So even though I'm bleeding, the baby's okay, then I'll be okay.
28:40So you don't need to worry about anything.
28:44Are you 100% good?
28:46I mean, are we in the clear?
28:48I mean, as long as I take it easy, it's supposed to resolve on itself, hopefully.
28:53Thank God.
28:55So how's everything going there?
28:58I mean, it's going.
29:03I just can't wait to get home.
29:06Take care of that baby for me, I'll be back before you know it.
29:09All right, well, I love you.
29:11Be safe up there.
29:12Call me when you can.
29:14All right, bye.
29:18Looks good.
29:26You guys ready?
29:27All right.
29:32I know what's going to be going on in Clark's mind.
29:35But, uh, we need to make some money here.
29:40Right now, my plan is to just get the gear in the water and get them soaking.
29:47All right, guys.
29:48Be careful.
29:51No camera guys on the stack this time.
29:54Roger.
29:57Now we can use a little luck.
30:03125 miles northeast.
30:08Yeah!
30:10On the Time Bandit.
30:11We are pulling our first scrap pot where we went with the barposes.

32:08All right.

32:12On the summer bay.
32:14I bumped this last bit of gear up here in the Wild Bill Magic Box.
32:2241!
32:23There we go.
32:24You know, with this cancer thing, personally, I'm ready to get it done.
32:28Easily going to finish the season and we can stay on this little band here.
32:35Oh, man.
32:36Wait for it.
32:37Wait for it.
32:38Wait for it.
32:39Wait for it.
32:40Right now.
32:41No.
32:42That's ugly.
32:43This will be the first pot we have that sucks.
32:56Five.
32:57Zero five.
32:58Hopefully it's a hard spot.
33:00Let me see how these bags are laying.
33:01Oh, there it is.
33:02What?
33:03That's a bunch of.

33:54Looking good.
33:57All right, how many?

34:01Woo!
34:0263!
34:0363!
34:04Woo!
34:05Woo!
34:06Ew!
34:07They might be stealing a little bit of crap from Bill,
34:11but if you look at these pots, there's plenty to go around.
34:17Hey, Bill's calling.
34:21How about it, Bill?
34:22What's going on?
34:26You know, when we talked about that one spot,
34:28I mentioned the boundary there,
34:30and I said, stay outside.
34:32I don't believe it, really.
34:34We're like pot for pot on three that I see out my window right now.
34:37Well, Jack's at that stuff.
34:39Hey, Bill.
34:41I just kept seeing crab, and I don't know, I just got excited.
34:46Just stop talking.
34:47I don't care what you have to say.
34:49You can shove that sorry up your ass.
34:51Hello.
34:52Hello.
34:57My mom's insane.
34:59Raised eight boys.
35:00Raising that many boys.
35:02Old Skidmark underwear.
35:04Poor mother.
35:05My poor mom.
35:06She's always worried, like, if you get in a car wreck or something,
35:09and you have dirty underwear.
35:11I go, it's the last thing you need to worry about in a car,
35:13if I get in a car wreck, is dirty underwear, Mom.
35:15She was worried about that.
35:17You guys need to change your underwear.
35:19It's embarrassing.
35:21That's the way moms are.
35:23And what if something happens, you got to go to the hospital,
35:26and she's embarrassed about it.
35:28Change your underwear, everybody.
35:30Anyway, that's my mama.
35:32Love you, Mom.
35:33John skids into fourth place,
35:36while Rick Shelford sits freshly laundered atop the leaderboard.
35:42On the Red King Crab Grounds.
35:45I don't care what you have to say.
35:47You can shove that sorry up your ass.
35:50You do not get how this works.
35:52I don't have enough time or crayons to explain this,
35:54to get your together.
35:58kids.
36:06It's a small ocean, you know?
36:08I mean, you can't have that be in your rap.
36:12Who's going to work with you?
36:17People will know.
36:18180 miles southwest.
36:26On the Northwestern.
36:29All right, guys.
36:30One mile.
36:31Get ready.
36:33Time is definitely of the essence.
36:35We've got to get through these pods.
36:37If we can find a 25-30 average,
36:39I'd probably be happy with that for now.
36:4322 hours after pulling his son-in-law
36:46and a camera operator out of the Bering Sea,
36:49Captain Sig prepares to pull his first
36:51Eastern Bared Eye Crab of the season.
36:57First part coming up?
36:58Yeah, Roger.
37:08What have we got?
37:09We're coming.
37:18Oh, yeah.
37:19You're coming.
37:21Oh, yeah.
37:22That's what we're looking for.
37:27Hold some.
37:31Three-four.
37:33Good.
37:34Good, good, good, good, good, good.
37:40This is what we need right here.
37:42That's the start I want.
37:45If it stays like this,
37:47we can get through these pods.
37:49We can really put a dent in that tank,
37:51so let's hope for the best.
37:56164 miles northeast.
38:01On the Pacific Mariner.
38:03There's a ton of pressure on us,
38:07both me and Harley.
38:09So when you see these crab,
38:11and you see thousands and thousands of dollars in a pot,
38:14it's tough not to chase them in there.
38:16Summer Bay.
38:30Pacific Mariner.
38:32You still on this one?
38:34Summer Bay.
38:35Pacific Mariner.
38:36You got me?
38:43Yeah, I got you, Jack.
38:45Hey, Bill.
38:46I, uh, I didn't mean for it to go down like this.
38:50And I just got excited.
38:51I saw the crab and followed them into the box.
38:56Yeah.
38:57Hey, I'm going to just give you the coordinates
38:58of these couple strings I got on the top of this box.
39:02And then she's come haul through them and take the crab,
39:06leave them doors open, get on to town.
39:09You ready for them?
39:10Um...
39:15Yeah.
39:17Yeah, I got 54,
39:190, 3,
39:2130,
39:221, 2.
39:24Thanks.
39:25Best of luck.
39:29Maybe Harley's got it right.
39:31Maybe I do need to work on my friends out here.
39:33All right, you guys.
39:35Let's turn the haul and see what we got.
39:37Roger.
39:39Yeah.
39:41Come on, crab.
39:43That looks good.
39:45Yeah.
39:46It's not over the top rock star, but it'll definitely get us what we need.
39:47We're going to haul this and we're going to get it done.
39:49All right, boys.
39:50We're back to square one.
39:51Find a new grail.
39:52Get it ready to see.
39:53Yeah.
39:54Yeah.
39:55Yeah.
39:56Yeah.
39:57Yeah.
39:58Yeah.
39:59Yeah.
40:00Yeah.
40:01Yeah.
40:02Yeah.
40:03Yeah.
40:04Yeah.

40:11Yeah.
40:12Yeah.
40:13Yeah.
40:14Yeah.
40:15We're going to get it ready to set.
40:17Let's get it.
40:20Watch out, Howard!
40:30It's so strange.
40:31Is everything all right?
40:32Now that we got that good news, I just, I mean I wasn't going to tell you, but, you know,
40:40We did have an incident.
40:42I was up on the stack.
40:43And honestly, it was a surprise to me.
40:48And I never thought I'd fall off.
40:50But I slipped on the stack, and I went overboard.
40:54Are you kidding me?
40:55You went in the water?
40:57Yeah.
40:58I mean, I'm fine.
40:59Everybody's fine.
41:00It was pretty scary, but nobody's injured.
41:06OK.
41:07Well, I'm sorry that, you know, you're in that situation.
41:14I'm just, I'm glad.
41:17I'm just glad you're safe.
41:21I love you and Sailor so much.
41:22And I'll give you a call tomorrow, OK?
41:25Get some rest.
