Private Notes
Emma, Fin, and Reef make it to Sunset Beach for the summer of their lives at Surfer's Paradise. When they arrive, they find the resort they are working at is a complete "Kooksville" resort, but they meet locals Broseph and Johnny. On their first day at the job, the groms must clean the resort after the owner's daughter, Lauren, throws a wild end-of-the-year school party.
The first day of work is always brutal, but the gang has it worse when Bummer is going to fire the person with the worst evaluation. After they finally get off work, Emma has to clean her clothes after it gets sprayed by a skunk, in addition to being stuck with a mean roommate, Martha McCartney who is fired at the end. Seeing how bad her first day is, Broseph teaches Emma how to surf.
The new employees get stuck with one of the worst things ever, their initiation. It's where the seniors, led by the snobbish Kelly, make them do humiliating things for the whole day. If the groms are able to endure the stuff, the seniors will take them to an secret section of the beach with the best waves, "The Office", which only a select few get to see.
The Hotel Management is anxious over the arrival of a Mr. Stanley Stevens—the well-known hotel reviewer. The groms are put through some difficult tasks in order to cater to his every whim. Meanwhile, El Duderino, the ultimate wave that hits once every 20 years, strikes Sunset Beach, which Reef and Broseph are determined to ride.
After receiving advice from Lo, Emma brings another surfer to "The Office" trying to make Ty jealous which accidentally reveals the secret location to other tourists. The groms become upset with her, so she devises a plan to make them leave. Meanwhile, Reef is stuck teaching a stubborn old man how to surf.
After overhearing Reef using lines from a cheesy 90s surf flick to pick up a cute guest, Fin bribes the Kahuna to run the amazing surf movie,Break Point, at the movies to expose Reef from his scamming ways. Meanwhile the rest of the gang are having problems with two children who keep pulling pranks on them and the guests.
When Reef breaks his pinky toe while surfing, he gets the whole week off. Fin, on the other hand, replaces Reef as the new surf instructor for the week. When Bummer is about to fire Reef since Fin was better at the job, Fin decides to give it back. But Bummer almost fires her, that is, until she saves his life. Meanwhile, George is being humiliated by Lo in front of his crush, so he plans revenge. At the end, Reef and Fin catch a few waves.
When trying to prove who is the better surfer, Fin and Reef get drifted out to sea, and end up on a remote island. Discovering they are the only ones there, Reef and Fin worry about dying on the island. They draw the conclusion that they will never make it back to their real lives, so the two prepare to kiss. At that moment, the rest of the gang shows up, revealing the resort was only 10 minutes down the beach. Meanwhile, Lo snags a vintage surf board tour to impress her dad. When things go wrong, the most valuable board goes missing.
Bummer goes on a blind date and leaves the hotel. The groms decide to go night surfing with the help of floodlights, but, the lights cause a power outage for the entire hotel. Emma is stuck in the elevator with her crush, Ty because of the outage.
Afraid that Emma received a bad evaluation, which would lead to her 3rd strike, Lo and Fin try to track down the paperwork before it reaches Bummer. Broseph gets kicked out of his room by Reef and Johnny, and builds a giant sandcastle to live in. When Reef and Johnny realize how much they miss Broseph, they beg him to return.

When Reef accidentally drops Fin and dislocates her shoulder, Lo forces Broseph to become Reef's partner, with Fin as the coach. Meanwhile, Johnny and Emma pose as a couple in order to film the team Reef and Broseph are up against to see how good they truly are. At the end, Reef makes an attempt at giving Fin flowers.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Ridgemount changes his mind.
Fin, Reef, Lo and Broseph get trapped in an old hotel room that Bummer claims to be haunted by a young couple who died there a month before. The gang doesn't really believe in hauntings, that's until the ghost shows up. But Fin still tries to convince the groms that ghosts aren't real. Meanwhile, the Kahuna faces off against an undead fish stick that he accidentally brought to life. At the end of the episode it is clear that Reef likes Fin.

But, when she becomes desperate and works for The Kahuna, he doesn't have money to pay her with, so he gives her a vintage board.
