With the bluefin markets reopened, it's all hands on deck to get back in the game. As the mates in the fleet step up to prove their worth, some captains give their second-in-command free reign; others hesitate to trust their crews. As the market begins to restabilize, can captains and crews set their differences aside long enough to put meat on deck?

The captains face intense weather conditions just days after the market shut down and must decide whether it's worth risking it all to ride out the storm or stay in and lose out on a potential paycheck. With extreme conditions and high seas beating down on the boats, and taking a toll on the captains both mentally and physically, everyone faces the ultimate choice: fight or flight?

As the competition heats up, the captains will try anything to appease the tuna gods for a little luck. Captain T.J. Ott of the Hot Tuna brings his good luck charm onboard, while Captain Tyler McLaughlin of the Pinwheel decides to share his lucky charm with the veteran fleet. Meanwhile, Captain Dave Marciano and his crew aboard the Falcon endure their longest fish fight of the season.
