Pacific Blue: 2x9

Genuine Heroes

Texas stick-up artist Jackie Earl Bates arrives in town with girlfriend Erlene Keene. Jackie’s told her they’ve won the lottery, and she’s excited to pursue her dream of becoming a centerfold model and television star. Once in Santa Monica, Jackie continues to rob stores, but the Bike Patrol’s efforts to catch him are repeatedly thwarted by Tyrone Justice, a bounty hunter who’s followed Jackie from Texas.

When Cory and Victor discover a couple presumed lost at sea, the event makes the newscasts. MTV-style show “”Blast Off”” host Ginger Delvecchio sees the report and recruits Victor (and Cory) to provide security on her set against two frat boys trying to steal her bikini top. Later, Cory is disgusted to learn the rescued couple staged their disappearance to reap the monetary benefits of selling their story.
