Pacific Blue

Ambitious police officer Chris Kelly is introduced to the Bike Patrol after she's transferred from the P.R. Department of the Santa Monica Police Department. T.C. Callaway, at a crossroads with his long term girlfriend, faces additional family pressure to quit the force and join the family business in Newport Beach. The entire unit is on the trail of a vicious car-jacker working the beach area.

While the Bike Patrol is being used as a CRASH Unit to fight gang activity in the beach area, Cory McNamara is forced to shoot a gangbanger fleeing a crime scene. When no weapon is found, the incident becomes potential ""bad shoot"". The situation is made worse by the fact that Cory is third generation in blue and the ""first shoot"" has to be a clean one (a police tradition and superstition). Cory must deal with a disapproving cop father, the gangbanger on the loose, the threat of a sleazy lawsuit against the department, and her potential for lack of nerve on the street. A brash trouble-making young star comes to the beach to shoot a portion of his feature film, and members of the bike patrol are assigned as liaisons. Once a sexy idol in the eyes of Chris Kelly, he soon proves his arrogant, wild-man reputation is well earned. Victor, no fan of the actor, is charmed into playing a small part in the film. A band of rollerskating pickpockets are working the boardwalk, their spot, dip, h

While teaching del Torro to surf, T.C. encounters a band of highly territorial Surf Nazis bullying a Hispanic surfer on the beach. Operating out of a beach bar decorated with Nazi symbols, the leader of this gang went to law school and is well vested in his rights. T.C. and Victor, who is Hispanic but doesn't look it, are both goaded into a confrontation that results in T.C.'s suspension. Cory and Victor chase and arrest an irrepressible sixteen-year-old black ""tagger"" who hits everything from tunnels to buildings to Victor's bicycle seat and the side of the firehouse. After seeing his home and works of art, Cory realizes the tagger is truly talented and acting out using his painting skills. Unfortunately, after an encounter in the firehouse cell with the leader of the Surf Nazis, the tagger becomes a target for their terror and must ultimately be saved by our officers. ""The Cove"" has long been an illegal nude beach, but election day is fast approaching and a ballot measure may mak

After discovering an old best friend, a guy T.C. felt he let down, has died in a suspicious skydiving accident, T.C. insinuates himself into a group of extreme-sport thrill seekers that he believes are behind the ""accident"". With T.C. seeking redemption in the world of adrenaline junkies caught up in underwater challenges and mountain bike racing, Lt. Palermo and Chris Kelly are worried just how far T.C. will risk himself to find the killer. Ultimately T.C. comes to grips with the reality of his own limitations, and brings down the extreme group who are using their mountain bikes to pull off the daredevil robbery of an armored car. A purse snatching dog is nailing patron after patron on the Venice Boardwalk. The pooch runs up behind women, grabs their purse in his teeth and then flees through alleys and under fences.

When a dead woman's body turns up on the beach with an origami angel on her chest, Palermo realizes that the serial killer who left him with a permanent leg injury has returned to the area. Obsessed with finding the killer, he stays his vacation and bends all the rules to bring down the Angel of Death before he kills again. There's been a string of cat burglaries at an upscale hotel that caters to couples having affairs. Unable to catch the thief by conventional means, T.C. and Chris have to pose as lovers the to catch the elusive bandit. Mariah, the bicyclist who rides faster than the wind, becomes a challenge to T.C. and Victor's egos as neither one of them can catch him after several high speed attempts.

While the unit is on the trail of a trio of heavily armed takedown robbers, T.C. finds himself face to face with one of the perps on the roof of a liquor store. After being ordered to shoot T.C., the young gunman has cold feet and flees. T.C., realizing his own mortality, becomes obsessed with the case as he spirals into self destructive behavior. In the final act, our officers get into a high tension situation as two of the heavies try to take a young girl hostage in yet another market. When T.C. finds himself again confronted by the same young gunman, he has to talk him out of killing a wounded Tony Palermo. Victor is shocked to discover that the skinny, awkward girl he took to the high school prom and later dumped, has just appeared as the centerfold in a Playboy-like magazine. He embarks on a personal (and funny) quest to relocate and connect with his old high school sweetheart. After a series of failed relationships, Chris finally meets a man who can deal with the fact that s

An anti-technology terrorist is setting bombs around the beach, and will only let T.C. and Victor dismantle them. He wants all power in Santa Monica shut down for twelve hours on the first of the month. An FBI agent comes in to assist the unit, butting heads with Palermo by making Chris his liaison. In the end, it's the Bike Patrol -- and not the FBI -- that discovers the bomber's true plan is to use the blackout to pull a multi-million dollar bank heist. While this is happening, T.C.'s girlfriend Sandy returns to live with him, with the condition that he not tell her anything about his job so she won't worry. But the agreement ends up making things harder on both of them.

T.C.'s girlfriend Sandy is attacked at home by a serial rapist called ""The Daystalker"". During their investigation, the Bike Patrol must deal with a by-the-book detective who has her own ideas about how the case should be handled. Afraid that the Daystalker will move on to another town before they can catch him, Cory volunteers to act as bait in a trap, just as he crosses over from serial rapist to serial killer. Elvis is hexed by a Rastafarian vendor on the boardwalk. After discovering that Victor is actually responsible for the resulting weird events, Elvis has the hex transferred to Victor.

With help from some skinhead cronies, the new manager for an apartment building on the Venice Boardwalk makes life hell for the tenants. The owner wants to raze the existing building and build high-priced condos. Cory and T.C. are sent to ""maintain a presence"" to keep the situation from getting out of hand. One of the tenants, a former Navy SEAL/ war hero, refuses to budge. Despite constant run-ins with the manager and his gang, he refuses to press charges, making it impossible for T.C. and Cory to make any arrests. Palermo has woman trouble on two fronts. He's dating a woman several (noticeable) years his junior, which reinforces his fear that he's gotten old. Matters are complicated when his sixteen year-old daughter Jessie unexpectedly shows up to live with him and doesn't take kindly to the new female in his life. Lifeguard captain Mackie Smith is back, challenging the Bike Patrol to a roller-hockey game versus the lifeguards. The lifeguards show up with NHL hockey star Rob Blake p

While struggling to save a young teenager, Ricky, from a life of gangbanging, Victor finds himself falling for the boy's spirited older sister, Linda. Just as Victor starts to get through to him, Ricky runs away, convinced Victor's only hanging out with him to get in good with Linda. Victor has to find him before he commits a serious crime which will wed him to the gangbanging life forever.

The trail of the gun leads to several other crimes, and eventually falls into the hands of a sixteen year-old boy who's being extorted by a group of kids on the boardwalk. Fearing further physical assaults, he's refused to report his bullies to the Bike Patrol. This gun is a way to finally get rid of his tormentors...permanently. Victor and Chris are approached by an eight year-old boy reporting his dog has been stolen. They don't take the report very seriously, until a partial license plate number is traced to a kennel which supplies dogs to research labs. As a practical joke, Cory signs Chris up with a video-dating service. Initially upset, Chris comes to view it as an excellent way to screen thousands of potential boyfriends without the hassle and disappointment of a full-blown first date.

The Bike Patrol investigates a series of home invasion robberies affecting Asian families. The case is unusual in that the robbers use keys to gain entrance and battery-powered bikes to make their getaway. The unit discovers that the thieves pose as valets at upscale restaurant parking lots to get access to house keys, and that one of the ringleaders has very close ties to one of the victims. When her older brother, Peter, suddenly begins buying luxuries for his family, Cory discovers that he's financing his purchases with money stolen from drug dealers. Her brother promises to stop, but Cory feels he's sullied the honor of being a cop--and his own status as her idolized older brother.
