Reason for Becoming A Lifeguard:
To stand on a pedestal as a star! To do something important as well as to become and be seen as someone important. To
use skills to save lives. Trying to become a permanent member of Sean's Team. it is what he really wants at the
moment.
Hobbies/Interests: Night life;skateboarding; surfing; swimming,
women.
Sex & Moral Standards: Sexually active. Out of context of a relationship. Likes to
bed them and lose them. Dreams and daydreams about beautiful women. Joins Jason at the airport and Tropics Bar
to pick up girls. In the beginning he had no respect for women. Learned to respect them as he understood himself
more through Sean's guidance.
Disappointed that he was never able to impress Carrie as he has always carried
strong feelings for her. Learned to have respect for Carrie in the end after her stalking experience. He tried to
get her to stay on at The Center, but fear forced her to leave.
Personal
Premise: Do-Over! Do-Over! Do-Over! Do-Over!
Ambition: Was to become
a part of Sean's team. His dream to prove himself and become a great lifeguard. To become a great, shining star!
Frustrations & Chief Disappointments: Failing to get the one open spot on Sean's team when they
were all tested to get an A-1 rating. After a period of anger, hissing and blaming, decided to work to pay his way through
the training again to get the rating needed. This time hoping to get onto The Team.
Later, his getting onto The Team by default although grateful for it.
He wanted to earn his way on. Carrie had quit because of an obsessive stalker, causing her to hastily give up lifeguarding. This
created a vacancy.
Unwillingness follow orders to learn which got him into trouble. Messing
up a lot. His hitting J.D. and a victim with a possible neck injury after refusing the order to give up the driver's
seat on the Jet Ski and again refusing to go around to get to them. J.D. had shielded the victim, but he ended up in
the hospital with serious injuries. The result for Zack was suspension.
Not being able to impress his father. His father was very disappointed in
how he turned out and wondered what he did wrong in raising him. His father called Zack a natural born loser. This
hurt greatly and he has been trying to prove himself a star when he arrived in Hawaii.
Temperament: Very Easygoing. Generally in a good mood. Uses way too
much slang and street talk. Sounds and acts more like a Valley Boy than a Chicagoan. Very loud and talkative. Can't
settle for standing out like a star! He wants to be the sun!
Attitude Toward
Life: Don't take it so seriously. Lighten up! Life is one huge party! You can do always
get a do-over!
Complexes: Afraid of not getting an A-1 rating. Afraid
of not getting chosen for Sean's team. His father's words of his being a born loser still haunts him. Not seemingly
able to win the more serious Captain Sean Monroe over.
Extrovert/Introvert: Definitely
Extrovert! Loves being around people, especially women. Children mimic his moves and actions. Makes a pest
of himself.
Abilities: Maneuvering; seemingly fearless of rescue situations
no matter how dangerous. Has a foreign language of his own as he "speaks in tongues" 99.9% of the time. Can
use his talkative manner to do good in calming a victim.
Qualities: Adventurer;
aggressive; attention getter; bold; brave; defiant; disobedient; do-over; dreamer; egoist; exaggerates; inconsiderate; immature;
impulsive; instinctive; irresponsible; irritant; loud; manipulative; overconfident; persuader; pushy; selfish; skirt chaser;
talkative; trickster; trouble maker; wild.
I.Q.: Average (I really want to say below average
given his infant behavior and inability to think before doing anything. But then, why make fans protest by stuffing
my mailbox and the message board with complaints?)
