Young Swimmer Rescued

Two female lifeguards sit on their lifeguard chair, looking out to sea. One spots a swimmer in danger, stands up, and blows a whistle. She leaps onto the sand and runs into the ocean. Shot of the floundering swimmer. One lifeguard swims towards the victim, while two others in a boat, row in the same direction. They take the swimmer out of the water, put her in the boat and row her to shore. The first lifeguard carries the victim, deposits her in the sand and walks back to her post. Other lifeguards tend to the swimmer. All action is simulated. Not a real rescue.
