Surf, surf, surf

Nicole needs cheering up after leaving her fiance at the altar; Jason thinks Nicole left Morgan for him and tries to explain why he spent the night with Tessa. Meanwhile, Gabriel's luck seems to be changing when he befriends pro-surfer Trey Chase, who has invited him to an all-expenses-paid surfing trip to Tahiti. However, Trey's friendship comes at a price when Gabriel realizes that Trey is MJ's cheating ex-boyfriend who isn't ready to give up on his failed romance with her.

Billionaire Dan Ralston stays at the Grand Waimea, solely to offer photogenic Gabe a sponsorship deal from his firm Surfrider Times, provided he wins the next day the Waikiki Pro-Am tournament. Thanks to Chris's pep-talk Gabe tries and wins, but the next condition is: stay available, so no Newport Beach trip to claims his paternal role... Alexandra fears she may have to report to Booth's HQ a 30% profits drop, so she starts examining everything. Even Chris's cabin rent is made conditional on reactivating his adventure tours within days, despite his terrible knee. M.J. may keep a $30,000 diamond bracelet nobody claimed in 6 months. Jason and Tessa are ordered to attend a society party, which turns out alcohol-free as a freak environment donation, and take their lover Nicole and Tessa along. Jason and Tessa mysteriously kiss in the supply room, and Nicole senses something.
