the angle I didn't expect from Surf God's Revenge: it's a story about uncredited labour.
She becomes a star. Sponsors, covers, a name people know. And every hour she spends training is an hour somebody else spent on the house, the meals, the driving, the boring logistics of a life that supports a career.
He never asks for credit. He never mentions it. That's what makes it land — the show doesn't let him make the speech, because the whole point is that people like this don't get to.
The scene that broke it open for me is a sponsor interview. She thanks everyone. The list is four names long. His isn't on it.
✨ What worked for me:
- No confrontation about the credit. Ever.
- The interview scene is shot flat, no dramatic music.
✨ Bottom line: an invisibility story dressed as a fantasy.
Who's the invisible labour in your life?

00:00:05Today, it'll be the freshest in the world.
00:00:14Duke.
00:00:17Morning, sunshine.
00:00:19Don't sunshine me.
00:00:20You tracked sand all over the kitchen.
00:00:23That beach life, though, right?
00:00:25What were you even doing out there so early?
00:00:27Getting stoned?
00:00:29Something like that.
00:00:30Unbelievable.
00:00:31I need you on point today.
00:00:33I heard Angela Lee, the CEO of Quick Mapple, might arrive early for the expo.
00:00:37Don't worry, babe.
00:00:38I got you.
00:00:48Ugh.
00:00:50This is not the brand I like.
00:00:52It's not any brand.
00:00:53It's fresh.
00:00:56How hard is it to get the right brand?
00:00:58Did you forget because you were high?
00:01:01I'll get the kind you like next time.
00:01:12Oh, my God.
00:01:17Oh, my God.
00:01:28Oh, my God.
00:01:28Thank you for saving my life, God of the island.
00:01:53Where's my surfboard?
00:01:56Oh, my God.
00:01:57Oh, my God.
00:02:08Hello there, big boy.
00:02:11Give me my board back, sea hag.
00:02:14Okay.
00:02:29My board.
00:02:31How did you do that?
00:02:32You may be immortal, but your board isn't.
00:02:35I've been saving my magic for years for that one trick.
00:02:39I'll never be as powerful as you, God of the island.
00:02:42But even you can't break my spell unless you do something for me.
00:02:48Marry my daughter.
00:02:50Marry my daughter.
00:02:53Your daughter?
00:02:55I've seduced many sailors in my day.
00:03:02One had strong swimmers.
00:03:07But I'm immortal.
00:03:09If I marry your daughter, she'll age.
00:03:11I won't.
00:03:12It could never last.
00:03:14Five years.
00:03:16Look after her for five years.
00:03:19Help her find success.
00:03:21On your fifth anniversary, the spell will break.
00:03:24You can surf again.
00:03:26And if you love her, reveal your true identity.
00:03:33Okay.
00:03:36Hey, so this might be weird, but your daughter doesn't look like you, does she?
00:03:43You tell me.
00:04:15I can't believe she's marrying some sponge or simp.
00:04:19I give it six months.
00:04:33We look so cute.
00:04:35I do wish you had listened to me and not worn that shirt, though.
00:04:40Someone just commented, Sponger in a stupid shirt.
00:04:44I thought you didn't care that I don't surf.
00:04:46I don't.
00:04:48I don't.
00:04:50Spoiler alert.
00:04:51She did care.
00:04:52And that wasn't her only complaint about me.
00:04:54But I made a vow to stay with her for five years.
00:04:57And I was determined to keep that vow, no matter how hard it was.
00:05:01And it was very hard.
00:05:12Kai became one of the top female surfers on Earth.
00:05:17And I've been her loyal supporters.
00:05:24In three days, I get my co-aboard back and I can surf again.
00:05:28But until then, my mission is to give Kai everything she wants.
00:05:33She loves coconut water.
00:05:35Today, it'll be the freshest in the world.
00:05:45Duke.
00:05:47Morning, sunshine.
00:05:49Don't sunshine me.
00:05:51You tracked sand all over the kitchen.
00:05:53That beach life, though, right?
00:05:55What were you even doing out there so early?
00:05:57Getting stoned?
00:05:59Something like that.
00:06:00Unbelievable.
00:06:01I need you on point today.
00:06:03I heard Angela Lee, the CEO of Quick Mapple, might arrive early for the expo.
00:06:07Don't worry, babe.
00:06:08I got you.
00:06:18Oh.
00:06:20This is not the brand I like.
00:06:22It's not any brand.
00:06:24It's fresh.
00:06:26How hard is it to get the right brand?
00:06:28Did you forget because you were high?
00:06:31I'll get the kind you like next time.
00:06:40We were happy once.
00:06:43But the honeymoon is over.
00:06:57Oh, my God, that's her.
00:06:59Angela Lee, the single most important person in the world of surfing.
00:07:03No, that's the most important person in the world of surfing.
00:07:09That old guy?
00:07:10Angela's father, Mickey Lee.
00:07:11He's the real power.
00:07:13Started Quick Mapple as a surf shack in Malibu
00:07:14and grew it into the most important surf brand on Earth.
00:07:19Oh, no.
00:07:21Oh.
00:07:23I gotta go.
00:07:32No!
00:07:33No!
00:07:36Dad, no!
00:08:07He's here!
00:08:09He's here!
00:08:10Love you.
00:08:11Love you.
00:08:24Pretty gnarly moves before the shark interrupted.
00:08:28Not as good as I used to be, but I can still catch a wave.
00:08:32Thank you for saving my life.
00:08:48You're the god of the island.
00:08:50Please, no one can know my identity.
00:08:52Whatever you say, but how can I ever repay you?
00:08:55Actually, there is a solid you could do me in return.
00:08:59Anything.
00:09:02My wife, Kaikua, is one of the best surfers in the world, and her sponsor just went bankrupt.
00:09:09Angela!
00:09:14Your leg!
00:09:15It's completely healed!
00:09:18Did you do this?
00:09:19I wish I had healing powers.
00:09:22I told you I went after him, but the god of the island rescued your dad.
00:09:26He must have put a healing spell on his leg or something.
00:09:29Well, thank you for helping.
00:09:31He needs our help, too.
00:09:33His wife, Kaikua, needs a sponsor.
00:09:35Wife?
00:09:36Don't worry.
00:09:37She's one hell of a surfer.
00:09:47Hey, Kaikua.
00:09:48Remember Chad from high school?
00:09:51Oh, how could she forget?
00:09:52If he hadn't dumped her to move to L.A. and become an Olympic gold medal surfer,
00:09:56she wouldn't have settled for that burnout sponger duke.
00:10:03Chad was my past.
00:10:05Yeah, the one that got away.
00:10:08He was so hot.
00:10:11And strong.
00:10:12God, I bet he could pick you up and flip you around.
00:10:17He could turn every girl into a spinner.
00:10:19You guys!
00:10:21If Chad came back today and asked you to take him back, what would you say?
00:10:27Well, I am married, and I haven't seen Chad since high school.
00:10:31Hey, ladies.
00:10:34Kai, we should get going.
00:10:38Are you trying to keep her from her friends or something?
00:10:41Jealous much?
00:10:44I'm not ready to go yet.
00:10:46Did you forget?
00:10:47Forget what?
00:10:49We have dinner reservations for our anniversary.
00:10:52The expo is the same day as our anniversary, so I made the reservation for today.
00:10:58I can't.
00:10:59Angela still hasn't seen me surf.
00:11:03Don't worry about that.
00:11:05You're going to get the quick maple sponsorship.
00:11:08What would you know about it?
00:11:13No way, bro.
00:11:14Is it really him?
00:11:15Oh my God, his abs look hard as rocks.
00:11:18I'd like to see what's under those board shorts.
00:11:29Chad?
00:11:32Hey, boo.
00:11:33I'm in town for the expo.
00:11:35We knew he'd be here.
00:11:37But we didn't want to spoil the surprise.
00:11:42Bring it in for the real thing.
00:11:55Chad, can you sign my board?
00:11:57Are you going to win gold at home in 2028, Chad?
00:12:00Duh.
00:12:01Of course I am.
00:12:02He's even hotter in person.
00:12:05She used to date him.
00:12:07Used to?
00:12:08How could you let a guy like that get away?
00:12:12So are we going to catch some waves or what, boo?
00:12:16I really think Angela should see me surf.
00:12:18And Chad is already sponsored by them, so it would help to see us together.
00:12:22For branding.
00:12:23You don't mind, right?
00:12:24No worries.
00:12:25We'll celebrate our anniversary later.
00:12:29Let's go.
00:12:39Look at them.
00:12:40They're perfect together.
00:12:41So amazing.
00:12:43Made for each other.
00:12:53So which one is your wife?
00:12:56The one on the board with Chad?
00:12:58Interesting.
00:12:59She's good.
00:13:00Really good.
00:13:01She's the best.
00:13:06You know, Quick Maple sponsors me.
00:13:08Yeah?
00:13:09I can help you get a sponsorship, too.
00:13:11Thank you, Chad.
00:13:13But I can handle it.
00:13:14I'm a big girl.
00:13:20I know exactly what kind of girl you are.
00:13:22I know every single part of you, and would love to get reacquainted.
00:13:27I just want to help, since your husband obviously can't.
00:13:32Oh, hey, dude.
00:13:33You must be Duke, the sponger who waxes Kai's board?
00:13:39I'm Kai's board.
00:13:40I'm Kai's husband.
00:13:41I'm Kai's husband.
00:13:43Want to go grab Kai's board for us?
00:13:50Five years.
00:13:51For five years, I protected and loved you.
00:13:54But now I'm starting to see you never really loved me back.
00:14:01I caught your favorite fish myself.
00:14:05And you've been out all day with Chad.
00:14:10You're cold.
00:14:11I can feel the goosebumps on your skin.
00:14:14Hey, don't sweat quick, Maple.
00:14:16I'm tight with Angela.
00:14:17I got your back like a bikini string.
00:14:21Thanks so much, Chad.
00:14:23It's the least I can do.
00:14:25You know, I never forgot you.
00:14:27Maybe I should stay on the island a while and get back in touch.
00:14:32I'm married.
00:14:34You're not going to be this hot forever, Kai.
00:14:36Don't you want a real man who knows what to do with a girl like you?
00:14:41Duke's actually really sweet.
00:14:44Sweet?
00:14:45Yeah.
00:14:45He's a total simp.
00:14:47Dump him or don't.
00:14:50I don't mind being Mr. Steel, your girl.
00:14:59There's an extra board here.
00:15:02It's a gift for you.
00:15:05A fish.
00:15:07This bad boy will unlock all the speed in that tight little bod.
00:15:11Duke designed my board himself.
00:15:13You think that sponger knows more about surfboards than me?
00:15:17Plus, this is a quick maple board.
00:15:19That's what Angela wants to see you on.
00:15:23Good point.
00:15:25See you on the beach, boo.
00:15:31Catch any big ones?
00:15:32It was okay.
00:15:34Lots of close outs today.
00:15:35I made dinner for our anniversary.
00:15:38Our patio's got a better view than any restaurant anyway.
00:15:41Sorry.
00:15:41I ate already.
00:15:49New board?
00:15:50Angela should see me on a quick maple board.
00:15:53Quick maple should build a board for you.
00:15:55Like I did.
00:15:56This fish can't make the drop on a barrel.
00:15:58It'll pearl the second you go vertical.
00:16:00Babe, no offense, but Chad knows surfing.
00:16:03He won gold.
00:16:03You don't even surf.
00:16:05I know the island's waves.
00:16:07I'll think about it.
00:16:08So you're not hungry, but you've been surfing all day.
00:16:10Are you sore?
00:16:11Do you want a massage?
00:16:20I am sore.
00:16:21I'm going to go in the hot tub.
00:16:22Want some company?
00:16:24No thanks.
00:16:25I'm not in the mood.
00:16:25Too sore.
00:16:40Oh.
00:16:41Oh, Chad.
00:16:44Yes, Chad.
00:16:47She said she wasn't in the mood, but she really meant she wasn't in the mood for me.
00:16:54Duke?
00:16:54Duke?
00:16:59You forgot your towel.
00:17:00Didn't want you to get cold walking back to the house.
00:17:10Aren't you going to say anything?
00:17:12What do you want me to say?
00:17:14Do you even care?
00:17:15Or are you too stoned and lazy to even give a shit?
00:17:18I care.
00:17:19If you paid attention, you'd know how much.
00:17:22Why did you never learn to surf?
00:17:27I was the best surfer in the world.
00:17:29Yeah.
00:17:30But your mom cursed me.
00:17:33What does that have to do with anything?
00:17:36Because it's weird.
00:17:37You're like obsessed with surfers.
00:17:40You make custom surfboards.
00:17:43You wear that stupid surfboard necklace.
00:17:46But you can't even surf.
00:17:49That's probably why you want to stay in this dead marriage.
00:17:51So you can leech off me.
00:17:54That's why you didn't even react to me screwing that jet and calling it another man's name.
00:17:58Because you don't actually care about anything except using me to get closer to the glory you'll never have.
00:18:06You want me out of your life?
00:18:11Give it a few more days.
00:18:22Nah, bro.
00:18:23You're caking it on.
00:18:25You're going to glue her feet to the board.
00:18:27That's right.
00:18:27For cold water like Malibu.
00:18:29On a warm break like ours, soft, thin wax will be greased by noon.
00:18:32This sponger's lecturing a gold metal surfer on wax.
00:18:35Not on wax.
00:18:36On the water I live on.
00:18:42Being a townie who's never left the island isn't something to brag about, Duke.
00:18:49I hoped I'd find you here.
00:18:58She looked pretty good with you yesterday, Chad.
00:19:01Let's see how she looks on her own.
00:19:03Angela, that bikini...
00:19:04You're still being warned by your boss.
00:19:10There she goes.
00:19:18I told her that fish can't make the drop on a barrel.
00:19:21It's purling.
00:19:32See what your garbage waxing did, sponger?
00:19:34It wasn't the wax.
00:19:36It was your board.
00:19:39So it's my fault?
00:19:40I was trying to unlock her power.
00:19:42You've been holding her back.
00:19:43Up.
00:19:48What?
00:19:49I think what you meant to say was...
00:19:52You've been holding her up.
00:19:54You're a pro surfer.
00:19:55Props on that.
00:19:56But I know my island.
00:19:58I know my break.
00:20:01And I know how to kick your ass.
00:20:03You think so?
00:20:04Let's go then.
00:20:14Duke.
00:20:15Duke, stop showing off.
00:20:16Chad's a professional athlete.
00:20:18You're a professional stoner.
00:20:19You don't want to fight him.
00:20:23Is that the kind of guy you are?
00:20:25Need to be rescued by your girl?
00:20:29I don't know what happened out there.
00:20:30I swear I'll do better in the expo tomorrow.
00:20:32Don't sweat it.
00:20:33The sponsorship's yours.
00:20:34He looked amazing.
00:20:35But I just had an epic wipeout.
00:20:38It's not just about your surfing.
00:20:40You're hot.
00:20:41And you've got a great man behind you.
00:20:46Looking forward to having you both represent
00:20:48Quick Mapple at the expo tomorrow.
00:20:54We've got to celebrate Mai Tai.
00:20:57Yes, absolutely.
00:20:58Fix the wax on my new board.
00:21:04She thinks Chad is the great man behind her.
00:21:07One more day, and she can have it.
00:21:14I can't believe she gave me the sponsorship, right?
00:21:18After I wiped out.
00:21:20And it's all thanks to you.
00:21:22I'd do anything for you.
00:21:37Oh, no.
00:21:38You're going to be so sticky.
00:21:40Why don't you come up to my room
00:21:42and rinse off in the shower?
00:21:44You can borrow a t-shirt, too, if you want.
00:21:46Yeah.
00:21:48I am really sticky, actually.
00:21:49You're going to be so sticky.
00:21:54You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:01You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:03You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:04You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:05You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:08You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:08You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:09You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:09You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:09You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:10You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:11You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:13You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:14You're going to be so sticky.
00:22:19First I rode your waves
00:22:21Now I'm going to ride your wife
00:22:30What are you doing?
00:22:33Stop denying yourself
00:22:36We both know you want this
00:22:38Put your clothes on, Chad
00:22:41You first
00:22:45Give me back the towel, Chad
00:22:46Come on, it's the least you can do
00:22:48After I got you the sponsorship
00:22:52Please don't do this
00:22:53Don't worry, boo
00:22:55Every girl likes it in the end
00:22:56Help! Somebody help me!
00:23:08Ride this
00:23:17How are you so strong?
00:23:24Does it make you feel strong?
00:23:27Taking another man's sloppy seconds?
00:23:29That's beta behavior
00:23:30I thought you were a Chad
00:23:33Please
00:23:34I can't breathe
00:23:35What are you doing to him?
00:23:43Enough!
00:23:50What is wrong with you?
00:23:53Me?
00:23:54He was assaulting my wife
00:23:57This is a misunderstanding
00:23:59Really?
00:24:00You were crying for help
00:24:02He spilled a drink on me
00:24:03I was just cleaning up
00:24:07And how did he end up naked?
00:24:09He was just changing
00:24:10You came in at the wrong time
00:24:13Timing, bro
00:24:14It's everything
00:24:15In surfing
00:24:15And in love
00:24:17Can you please just take me home?
00:24:19You can stay here if you want, boo
00:24:23We all need to just chill out
00:24:24Before the expo tomorrow
00:24:26Let's go
00:24:38I shouldn't have slapped you
00:24:42You were being crazy though
00:24:45I thought you were gonna kill him
00:24:50Do you have anything to say?
00:24:52Why were you in his hotel room?
00:24:56I told you
00:24:57He spilled a drink
00:24:58I should have been there
00:25:00But instead you made me
00:25:02If you wanted to come
00:25:02You should have come
00:25:04You are always doing this
00:25:05You act like a total simp
00:25:07And then bitch and complain
00:25:08When I don't tell you what to do
00:25:09Act like a man for once
00:25:11You used to like that I was kind and giving
00:25:15No
00:25:16I like the way you fucked me that first time
00:25:18I was totally digmatized
00:25:20And I made the biggest mistake of my life
00:25:24That's really how you feel about our marriage?
00:25:29You're a sweet guy, Duke
00:25:31But I need a strong man behind me
00:25:33Not a slacker
00:25:37If you cared to look closer
00:25:38You'd see that the truth is
00:25:41You'd never be this successful without me
00:25:45Get real, Duke
00:25:46I could make my own meals
00:25:48And wax my own board
00:25:50I only let you do it
00:25:51Because you're so pathetic
00:25:55I feel bad for you
00:25:57You think I'm just a glorified servant?
00:26:00Like you said
00:26:01A leech
00:26:02I need a real man
00:26:04Not some stoner
00:26:06Beta
00:26:07Board waxing
00:26:08Sponger
00:26:09All the things you do for me
00:26:10Just make you seem weak
00:26:11How am I supposed to be attracted to you?
00:26:18Then let's get a divorce
00:26:32Oh my god
00:26:48Thank you for saving my life
00:26:50God of the island
00:27:13Where's my surfboard?
00:27:16Looking for this?
00:27:17God of the island?
00:27:29Hello there, big boy
00:27:31Give me my board back, sea hag
00:27:34Okay
00:27:50My board
00:27:51How did you do that?
00:27:53You may be immortal
00:27:54But your board isn't
00:27:55I've been saving my magic for years
00:27:58For that one trick
00:27:59I'll never be as powerful as you
00:28:01God of the island
00:28:02But even you can't break my spell
00:28:05Unless you do something for me
00:28:09Marry my boat
00:28:14Your daughter?
00:28:16I've seduced many sailors in my day
00:28:22One had strong swimmers
00:28:28But I'm immortal
00:28:30If I marry your daughter, she'll age
00:28:32I won't
00:28:32It could never last
00:28:34Five years
00:28:37Look after her
00:28:38Look after her for five years
00:28:39Help her find success
00:28:41On your fifth anniversary
00:28:43The spell will break
00:28:44You can surf again
00:28:46And if you love her
00:28:48Reveal your true identity
00:28:53Okay
00:28:56Hey, so this might be weird
00:28:58But your daughter doesn't look like you
00:29:01Does she?
00:29:04You tell me
00:29:14You tell me
00:29:35I can't believe she's marrying some sponger simp
00:29:40I give it six months
00:29:53We look so cute
00:29:56I do wish you had listened to me
00:29:57And not worn that shirt though
00:30:00Someone just commented
00:30:02Sponger in a stupid shirt
00:30:04I thought you didn't care
00:30:06That I don't surf
00:30:07I don't
00:30:08I don't
00:30:10Spoiler alert
00:30:11She did care
00:30:12And that wasn't her only complaint about me
00:30:14But I made a vow
00:30:16To stay with her for five years
00:30:17And I was determined
00:30:18To keep that vow
00:30:19No matter how hard it was
00:30:21And it was very hard
00:30:33Kai became one of the top female surfers on earth
00:30:38And I've been her loyal supporter
00:30:45In three days
00:30:46I get my koa board back
00:30:47And I can surf again
00:30:48But until then
00:30:50My mission is to give Kai everything she wants
00:30:53She loves coconut water
00:30:55Today it'll be the freshest in the world
00:31:05Duke
00:31:08Morning sunshine
00:31:10Don't sunshine me
00:31:11You tracked sand all over the kitchen
00:31:14That beach life though, right?
00:31:15What were you even doing out there so early?
00:31:18Getting stoned?
00:31:19Something like that
00:31:20Unbelievable
00:31:21I need you on point today
00:31:23I heard Angela Lee
00:31:24The CEO of Quick Mapple
00:31:25Might arrive early for the expo
00:31:28Don't worry babe
00:31:28I got you
00:31:40This is not the brand I like
00:31:43It's not any brand
00:31:44It's fresh
00:31:47How hard is it to get the right brand?
00:31:49Did you forget because you were high?
00:31:51I'll get the kind you like next time
00:32:00We were happy once
00:32:03But
00:32:04The honeymoon is over
00:32:17Oh my god, that's her
00:32:19Angela Lee
00:32:20The single most important person in the world of surfing
00:32:24No, that's the most important person in the world of surfing
00:32:29That old guy?
00:32:30Angela's father, Mickey Lee
00:32:31He's the real power
00:32:33Started Quick Maple as a surf shack in Malibu
00:32:35And grew it into the most important surf brand on earth
00:32:39Oh no
00:32:42Oh
00:32:42I gotta go
00:32:56Dad, no!
00:32:58No
00:32:59Wow
00:33:13I have to go
00:33:24Oh
00:33:25Oh
00:33:28She's here!
00:33:45Pretty gnarly moves before the shark interrupted.
00:33:48Not as good as I used to be, but I can still catch a wave.
00:33:52Thank you for saving my life.
00:34:08You're the god of the island.
00:34:10Please, no one can know my identity.
00:34:13Whatever you say, but how can I ever repay you?
00:34:16Actually, there is a solid you could do me in return.
00:34:20Anything.
00:34:23My wife, Kaikua, is one of the best surfers in the world.
00:34:27And her sponsor just went bankrupt.
00:34:29Angela!
00:34:35Your leg! It's completely healed!
00:34:38Did you do this?
00:34:40I wish I had healing powers.
00:34:42I told you I went after him, but the god of the island rescued your dad.
00:34:46He must have put a healing spell on his leg or something.
00:34:50Well, thank you for helping.
00:34:52He needs our help too.
00:34:53His wife, Kaikua, needs a sponsor.
00:34:56Wife?
00:34:56Don't worry, she's one hell of a surfer.
00:35:07Hey, Kaikua.
00:35:09Remember Chad from high school?
00:35:11How could she forget?
00:35:13If he hadn't dumped her to move to LA and become an Olympic gold medal surfer,
00:35:16she wouldn't have settled for that burnout sponger duke.
00:35:23Chad was my past.
00:35:25Yeah, the one that got away.
00:35:28He was so hot.
00:35:31And strong.
00:35:33God, I bet he could pick you up and flip you around.
00:35:37He could turn every girl into a spinner.
00:35:39You guys!
00:35:41If Chad came back today and asked you to take him back, what would you say?
00:35:47Well, I am married and I haven't seen Chad since high school.
00:35:52Hey, ladies.
00:35:54Kai, we should get going.
00:35:58Are you trying to keep her from her friends or something?
00:36:01Jealous much?
00:36:04I'm not ready to go yet.
00:36:06Did you forget?
00:36:07Forget what?
00:36:09We have dinner reservations for our anniversary.
00:36:12The expo is the same day as our anniversary, so I made the reservation for today.
00:36:19I can't.
00:36:20Angela still hasn't seen me surf.
00:36:23Don't worry about that.
00:36:25You're going to get the quick maple sponsorship.
00:36:28What would you know about it?
00:36:33No way, bro. Is it really him?
00:36:35Oh my god, his abs look hard as rocks.
00:36:38I'd like to see what's under those board shorts.
00:36:49Chad?
00:36:52Hey, boo. I'm in town for the expo.
00:36:55We knew he'd be here. But we didn't want to spoil the surprise.
00:37:03Bring it in for the real thing.
00:37:15Chad, can you sign my board? Are you going to win gold at home in 2028, Chad?
00:37:20Duh. Of course I am.
00:37:23He's even hotter in person.
00:37:25She used to date him.
00:37:27Used to?
00:37:29How could you let a guy like that get away?
00:37:33So are we going to catch some waves or what, boo?
00:37:36I really think Angela should see me surf.
00:37:39And Chad is already sponsored by them, so it would help to see us together.
00:37:42For branding. You don't mind, right?
00:37:45No worries. We'll celebrate our anniversary later.
00:37:49Let's go.
00:37:59Look at them. They're perfect together.
00:38:01So amazing. Made for each other.
00:38:14So which one is your wife?
00:38:16The one on the board with Chad?
00:38:19Interesting. She's good. Really good.
00:38:21She's the best.
00:38:26You know, Quick Maple sponsors me.
00:38:28I can help you get a sponsorship too.
00:38:31Thank you, Chad.
00:38:33But I can handle it.
00:38:34I'm a big girl.
00:38:40I know exactly what kind of girl you are.
00:38:42I know every single part of you.
00:38:44And would love to get reacquainted.
00:38:47I just want to help, since your husband obviously can't.
00:38:52Oh, hey, dude.
00:38:53You must be Duke, the sponger who waxes Kai's board.
00:38:59I'm Kai's husband.
00:39:02I'm Kai's husband.
00:39:03Want to go grab Kai's board for us?
00:39:10Five years.
00:39:11For five years, I protected and loved you.
00:39:14But now I'm starting to see, you never really loved me back.
00:39:21I caught your favorite fish myself.
00:39:25And you've been out all day with Chad.
00:39:30You're cold. I can feel the goosebumps on your skin.
00:39:35Hey, don't sweat quick, Maple. I'm tight with Angela.
00:39:38I got your back like a bikini string.
00:39:42Thanks so much, Chad.
00:39:44It's the least I can do.
00:39:45You know, I never forgot you.
00:39:47Maybe I should stay on the island a while and get back in touch.
00:39:52I'm married.
00:39:54You're not going to be this hot forever, Kai.
00:39:57Don't you want a real man who knows what to do with a girl like you?
00:40:01Duke's actually really sweet.
00:40:05Sweet? Yeah.
00:40:05He's a total sim.
00:40:08Dump him.
00:40:09Or don't.
00:40:10I don't mind being Mr. Steel, your girl.
00:40:20There's an extra board here.
00:40:22It's a gift for you.
00:40:25A fish.
00:40:27This bad boy will unlock all the speed in that tight little bod.
00:40:31Duke designed my board himself.
00:40:34You think that sponger knows more about surfboards than me?
00:40:38Plus, this is a quick maple board.
00:40:40That's what Angela wants to see you on.
00:40:43Good point. Thank you.
00:40:46See you on the beach, boo.
00:40:51Catch any big ones?
00:40:53It was okay.
00:40:54Lots of close outs today.
00:40:55I made dinner.
00:40:56For our anniversary.
00:40:58Our patio's got a better view than any restaurant anyway.
00:41:01Sorry, I ate already.
00:41:09New board?
00:41:11Angela should see me on a quick maple board.
00:41:14Quick maple should build a board for you.
00:41:16Like I did.
00:41:17This fish can't make the drop on a barrel.
00:41:19It'll pearl the second you go vertical.
00:41:21Babe, no offense, but Chad knows surfing.
00:41:23He won gold.
00:41:24You don't even surf.
00:41:25I know the island's waves.
00:41:27I'll think about it.
00:41:28So you're not hungry, but you've been surfing all day.
00:41:31Are you sore?
00:41:31Do you want a massage?
00:41:40I am sore.
00:41:41I'm gonna go in the hot tub.
00:41:43Want some company?
00:41:44No, thanks.
00:41:45I'm not in the mood.
00:41:46Too sore.
00:42:00Oh.
00:42:01Oh.
00:42:03Oh, Chad.
00:42:04Yes, Chad.
00:42:07She said she wasn't in the mood, but she really meant she wasn't in the mood for me.
00:42:14Duke?
00:42:15Duke.
00:42:19You forgot your towel.
00:42:20Didn't want you to get cold walking back to the house.
00:42:31Aren't you gonna say anything?
00:42:33What do you want me to say?
00:42:34Do you even care?
00:42:35Or are you too stoned and lazy to even give a shit?
00:42:38I care.
00:42:40If you paid attention, you'd know how much.
00:42:42Why did you never learn to surf?
00:42:48I was the best surfer in the world.
00:42:49Yeah.
00:42:51But your mom cursed me.
00:42:54What does that have to do with anything?
00:42:56Because it's weird.
00:42:58You're like obsessed with surfers.
00:43:01You make custom surfboards.
00:43:03You wear that stupid surfboard necklace.
00:43:06But you can't even surf.
00:43:09That's probably why you want to stay in this dead marriage.
00:43:12So you can leech off me.
00:43:14That's why you didn't even react to me screwing that jet and calling it another man's name.
00:43:19Because you don't actually care about anything except using me to get closer to the glory you'll never have.
00:43:27You want me out of your life?
00:43:31Give it a few more days.
00:43:42No, bro, you're caking it on.
00:43:45You're gonna glue her feet to the board.
00:43:47That's right for cold water like Malibu.
00:43:49On a warm break like ours, soft thin wax will be greased by noon.
00:43:52This sponger's lecturing a gold metal surfer on wax.
00:43:55Not on wax.
00:43:56On the water I live on.
00:44:02Being a townie who's never left the island isn't something to brag about, Duke.
00:44:10I hoped I'd find you here.
00:44:19She looked pretty good with you yesterday, Chad.
00:44:21Let's see how she looks on her own.
00:44:23Angela!
00:44:24That bikini!
00:44:25It's still being worn by your boss.
00:44:30There she goes.
00:44:38I told her that fish can't make the drop on a barrel.
00:44:41It's pearly.
00:44:53See what your garbage waxing did, sponger?
00:44:55It wasn't the wax.
00:44:56It was your board.
00:44:59So it's my fault?
00:45:01I was trying to unlock her power.
00:45:02You've been holding her back.
00:45:04Up.
00:45:09What?
00:45:10I think what you meant to say was, you've been holding her up.
00:45:15You're a pro surfer, props on that.
00:45:17But I know my island.
00:45:18I know my break.
00:45:21And I know how to kick your ass.
00:45:23You think so?
00:45:25Let's go then.
00:45:25Oh!
00:45:35Duke!
00:45:35Stop showing off!
00:45:37Chad's a professional athlete.
00:45:38You're a professional stoner.
00:45:39You don't want to fight him.
00:45:43Is that the kind of guy you are?
00:45:45Need to be rescued by your girl?
00:45:49I don't know what happened out there.
00:45:50I swear I'll do better in the expo tomorrow.
00:45:52Don't sweat it.
00:45:53The sponsorship's yours.
00:45:54He looked amazing.
00:45:55But I just had an epic wipeout.
00:45:58It's not just about your surfing.
00:46:00You're hot.
00:46:02And you've got a great man behind you.
00:46:06Looking forward to having you both represent Quick Mapple at the expo tomorrow.
00:46:10Woo!
00:46:15We gotta celebrate.
00:46:16Mai Tai!
00:46:17Yes!
00:46:17Absolutely!
00:46:18Fix the wax on my new board.
00:46:25She thinks Chad is the great man behind her.
00:46:28One more day, and she can have it.
00:46:34I can't believe.
00:46:36She gave me the sponsorship, right?
00:46:38After I wiped out.
00:46:40And it's all thanks to you.
00:46:43I'd do anything for you.
00:46:57Oh no!
00:46:58You're gonna be so sticky.
00:47:01Why don't you come up to my room?
00:47:02And rinse off in the shower.
00:47:04You can borrow a t-shirt too if you want.
00:47:06Yeah.
00:47:08I am really sticky actually.
00:47:39First I rode your waves.
00:47:42Now I'm gonna ride your wife.
00:47:50What are you doing?
00:47:54Stop denying yourself.
00:47:56We both know you want this.
00:47:58Put your clothes on, Chad.
00:48:01You first.
00:48:05Give me back the towel, Chad.
00:48:07Come on.
00:48:08It's the least you can do.
00:48:09After I got you the sponsorship.
00:48:12Please don't do this.
00:48:14Don't worry, boo.
00:48:16Every girl likes it in the end.
00:48:17Help!
00:48:18Somebody help me!
00:48:19Help!
00:48:20Help!
00:48:28Ride this.
00:48:38How are you so strong?
00:48:46Taking another man's sloppy seconds?
00:48:49That's beta behavior.
00:48:52I thought you were a Chad.
00:48:54Please.
00:48:54I can't breathe.
00:48:56What are you doing to him?
00:49:03Enough!
00:49:11What is wrong with you?
00:49:13Me?
00:49:14He was assaulting my wife.
00:49:17This is a misunderstanding.
00:49:20Really?
00:49:21You were crying for help.
00:49:22He spilled a drink on me.
00:49:24I was just cleaning up.
00:49:27And how did he end up naked?
00:49:29He was just changing.
00:49:31You came in at the wrong time.
00:49:33Timing, bro.
00:49:34It's everything.
00:49:35In surfing and in love.
00:49:37Can you please just take me home?
00:49:40You can stay here if you want, boo.
00:49:43We all need to just chill out before the expo tomorrow.
00:49:46Let's go.
00:49:58I shouldn't have slapped you.
00:50:03You were being crazy, though.
00:50:05I thought you were gonna kill him.
00:50:10Do you have anything to say?
00:50:13Why were you in his hotel room?
00:50:16I told you, he spilled a drink.
00:50:18I should have been there.
00:50:21But instead, you made me-
00:50:22If you wanted to come, you should have come!
00:50:24You are always doing this.
00:50:26You act like a total simp and then bitch and complain when I don't tell you what to do.
00:50:30Act like a man for once!
00:50:33You used to like that I was kind and giving.
00:50:35No.
00:50:36I like the way you fucked me that first time.
00:50:39I was totally digmatized and I made the biggest mistake of my life.
00:50:44That's really how you feel about our marriage?
00:50:50You're a sweet guy, Duke.
00:50:52But I need a strong man behind me, not a slacker.
00:50:57If you cared to look closer, you'd see that the truth is,
00:51:01you'd never be this successful without me.
00:51:05Get real, Duke.
00:51:07I could make my own meals and wax my own board.
00:51:10I only let you do it because you're so pathetic.
00:51:15I feel bad for you.
00:51:18You think I'm just a glorified servant?
00:51:20Like you said, a leech.
00:51:22I need a real man.
00:51:25Not some stoner, beta, board waxing sponger.
00:51:29All the things you do for me just make you seem weak.
00:51:32How am I supposed to be attracted to you?
00:51:39Then let's get a divorce.
00:51:53Oh, my God.
00:52:08Thank you for saving my life, God of the island.
00:52:34Where's my surfboard?
00:52:36Looking for this, God of the island?
00:52:49Slow there, big boy.
00:52:52Give me my board back, sea hag.
00:52:55Okay.
00:53:10My board.
00:53:12How did you do that?
00:53:13You may be immortal, but your board isn't.
00:53:15I've been saving my magic for years for that one trick.
00:53:19I'll never be as powerful as you, God of the island.
00:53:23But even you can't break my spell unless you do something for me.
00:53:29Marry my daughter.
00:53:34Your daughter?
00:53:36I've seduced many sailors in my day.
00:53:43One had strong swimmers.
00:53:48But I'm immortal.
00:53:50If I marry your daughter, she'll age. I won't.
00:53:53It could never last.
00:53:55Five years.
00:53:57Look after her for five years.
00:54:00Help her find success.
00:54:02On your fifth anniversary, the spell will break.
00:54:05You can surf again.
00:54:07And if you love her, reveal your true identity.
00:54:14Okay.
00:54:17Hey, so this might be weird, but your daughter doesn't look like you, does she?
00:54:24You tell me.
00:54:55I can't believe she's marrying some sponge or simp.
00:55:00I give it six months.
00:55:14We look so cute.
00:55:16I do wish you had listened to me and not worn that shirt, though.
00:55:21Someone just commented, sponger in a stupid shirt.
00:55:25I thought you didn't care that I don't surf.
00:55:27I don't.
00:55:29I don't.
00:55:30Spoiler alert.
00:55:31She did care.
00:55:33And that wasn't her only complaint about me.
00:55:35But I made a vow to stay with her for five years.
00:55:38And I was determined to keep that vow.
00:55:40No matter how hard it was.
00:55:42And it was very hard.
00:55:53Kai became one of the top female surfers on Earth.
00:55:58And I've been her loyal supporters.
00:56:05In three days, I get my koa board back and I can surf again.
00:56:09But until then, my mission is to give Kai everything she wants.
00:56:13She loves coconut water.
00:56:16Today, it'll be the freshest in the world.
00:56:25Duke.
00:56:28Morning, sunshine.
00:56:30Don't sunshine me.
00:56:31You tracked sand all over the kitchen.
00:56:34That beach life though, right?
00:56:36What were you even doing out there so early?
00:56:38Getting stoned?
00:56:40Something like that.
00:56:41Unbelievable.
00:56:42I need you on point today.
00:56:43I heard Angela Lee, the CEO of Quick Mapple might arrive early for the expo.
00:56:48Don't worry babe.
00:56:49I got you.
00:57:01This is not the brand I like.
00:57:03It's not any brand, it's fresh.
00:57:07How hard is it to get the right brand?
00:57:09Did you forget because you were high?
00:57:12I'll get the kind you like next time.
00:57:21We were happy once, but the honeymoon is over.
00:57:38Oh my god, that's her.
00:57:39Angela Lee, the single most important person in the world of surfing.
00:57:44No, that's the most important person in the world of surfing.
00:57:50That old guy?
00:57:51Angela's father, Mickey Lee.
00:57:52He's the real power.
00:57:53Started Quick Maple as a surf shack in Malibu,
00:57:55and grew it into the most important surf brand on earth.
00:57:59Oh no.
00:58:02Oh.
00:58:03I gotta go.
00:58:17Dad, no!
00:58:23You can go.
00:58:24You can go.
00:58:47He's here!
00:59:05Pretty gnarly moves before the shark interrupted.
00:59:08Not as good as I used to be, but I can still catch a wave.
00:59:12Thank you for saving my life.
00:59:28You're the god of the island.
00:59:31Please, no one can know my identity.
00:59:33Whatever you say, but how can I ever repay you?
00:59:36Actually, there is a solid you could do me in return.
00:59:40Anything.
00:59:43My wife, Kaikua, is one of the best surfers in the world, and her sponsor just went bankrupt.
00:59:49Angela!
00:59:55Your leg!
00:59:56It's completely healed!
00:59:59Did you do this?
01:00:00I wish I had healing powers.
01:00:03I told you I went after him, but the god of the island rescued your dad.
01:00:07He must have put a healing spell on his leg or something.
01:00:10Well, thank you for helping.
01:00:12He needs our help too.
01:00:13His wife, Kaikua, needs a sponsor.
01:00:16Wife?
01:00:17Don't worry.
01:00:17She's one hell of a surfer.
01:00:19Don't worry.
01:00:19Maybe he will.
01:00:19I love you.
01:00:20I know!
01:00:21I love you.
