Gator Boys

When Jimmy buys a restaurant, it creates major friction with Paul. Stretched thin by road shows and a new juke joint, they struggle to keep the rescue going. Jimmy and Scott tackle a gator in a tight spot; Paul and Ashley deal with a major threat.

Gator Boys Alligator Rescue finds a new volunteer – 12-year-old Eric – who is eager to get his feet wet. Eric might be the first in a new generation of Gator Boys, but a novice on the team means there’s always someone to look after and ultimately slow things down! Paul catches an alligator and, as a result, sustains a gruesome injury that requires him to get major surgery to avoid infection. A homeowner claims he saw a gator in his mucky pool, and Jimmy and Tre pull up everything but the kitchen sink from the muddy mess. Can they find the gator before the gator finds them?

The Gator Boys are tasked with one of their most important gator calls ever when they are called to clear gator-infested waters around a pump station so divers safely can make repairs. If the pump station isn’t fixed quickly, the waterways could flood, causing serious damage to the local ecosystem. Meanwhile, Jimmy prepares for his biggest and most important gator road show and asks Tre to come up with a never-before-seen trick to guarantee success. Tre creates a trick that is sure to shock the audience… but one wrong move could spell disaster.

The Gator Boys are taking nuisance gator calls at a frantic pace, and the newest volunteer wants to help. Unfortunately, 12-year-old Eric doesn’t have the experience to get “hands on” with alligators. Noticing the youngster’s frustration, Jimmy creates a novel plan for Eric to gain experience. Meanwhile, Tre meets an elder with the Seminole Indian Tribe. Although he is 87 years old, he was a gator wrestler in his youth and wants one last chance to get “hands on” with an alligator.

A friend has a personal emergency and needs Ashley’s help back at the wildlife sanctuary where she worked before joining Gator Boys. Meanwhile, Jimmy’s restaurant is struggling so he must take time away from gator catches as he struggles to bring in more customers. With Ashley gone, the office quickly becomes a mess and Paul is stretched thin and everything is falling apart, piece-by-piece. Paul is at a crossroads and must come to terms with “the new normal” or figure out how to get Ashley and Jimmy back full-time.

This episode takes the Gator Boys into many unexpected places! When the Gator Boys volunteer to take on a different type of animal rescue, relocating animals away from rising floodwaters, they soon realize that moving confused, annoyed donkeys might just be more challenging than even the meanest of gators. Meanwhile, Scott is tasked with entering a cage to remove a cute, cuddly and inconspicuous coatimundi, but he quickly gets a “hands-on” education that the animal is actually a dangerously aggressive South American raccoon. Paul and Jimmy shift from rescuing nuisance gators to rescuing nuisance Gator Boys when Scott and Tre get lost deep in the everglades on an airboat that’s running on empty.

Paul and Jimmy take the team to Mazatlan, Mexico, to establish the country’s first no-kill crocodile rescue. The team takes on massive nuisance crocodiles while training their Mexican counterparts to use the Gator Boys’ unique capturing techniques. Crocodiles are known for being even more aggressive than alligators and handling the animals in unfamiliar terrain proves daunting. However, when Paul learns that a legendary monster-croc (“El Diablo”) has terrorized the countryside for decades, he vows not to return to Florida until the dangerous beast has been captured. Ashley is in for a shock when her boyfriend, Chris Gillette, takes time off from his South American crocodile research project to surprise her in Mazatlan.

Paul and Jimmy continue their work in Mazatlan, capturing nuisance crocs and training their Mexican counterparts. Nonetheless, the fact remains that the Gator Boys haven’t captured “El Diablo,” the legendary monster-croc, and it’s hanging heavily over their heads. The team experiences unique hospitality and a bit of a culture shock as they tour the city and outlying villages. The Gator Boys are surprised to see a different side of Paul as he spends a lot of time with Pamela, one of the local volunteers. It’s a gripping Mexican finale when Paul goes into uncharted waters for a final face-off with “El Diablo.”

Paul and Jimmy go after some of the biggest and nastiest gators they have ever faced, including an 11-foot monster gator. Meanwhile, 12-year-old Eric has an identity crisis that leads him to strange behavior that confuses and amuses the team.

Paul is busy saving gators, but Jimmy's schedule is impossible to manage. With the restaurant, road shows and girlfriend, Jimmy has no time for the Gator Boys. As Paul runs things solo, Jimmy makes a decision that may change Gator Boys forever.

The gators are bigger and meaner than ever, but everybody is stretched thin since Jimmy quit the Gator Boys. As the nuisance gator calls stack up, Paul realizes Jimmy won't return and decides it's time to find a replacement.

A combination of bad volunteers and dangerous gators convince the Gator Boys they desperately need Jimmy back. A gator rescue turns deadly when Ashley twists her ankle and becomes unable to help Paul capture a nasty gator.

Paul springs into action to find a veterinarian to fuse an injured alligator's mouth back together to save his life. The gator's life hangs in the balance as the doctor and Paul work to perfect a risky procedure that has never been done before.

The Gator Boys return to Mississippi to save a supersized gator before hunting season. After a week of treacherous Mississippi mud, Paul and Jimmy return to Florida but leave some Gator Boys behind to search for "Moby Dick".

A woman who calls about a gator in her backyard, soon ends up volunteering for Gator Boys Alligator Rescue, but when Tre starts to teach her the ins and outs, the experience goes to his head and decides to open a gator wrestling class.

Paul has his hands full juggling nuisance gator catches and training new volunteer Caroline; Jimmy, Tre and Scott try to save a gator that swallowed a flip-flop.

Jimmy leaves town with Ashley and Andy to do his road show, while Paul has only newbie Caroline to help with gator calls.

Ashley analyzes the challenges she's overcome to achieve success for a gator wrestling event with a women's empowerment group. She must show how the work of a lady-gator wrestler differs from that of her male counterparts.

After Jimmy is bitten by a mean gator, Bob Freer announces he must close Everglades Outpost due to money problems. With no outpost to take in gators, the rescue can't continue. It's a race against time as Paul fights to save the outpost and Gator Boys.

Paul rallies the Gator Boys to rush to Mississippi to capture the gigantic gator Moby Dick before hunting season begins. With Ashley in charge in Florida, her goal is to prove that the Gator Girls can match the Gator Boys catch for catch.
