Medical prodigy Dr. Lahela "Doogie" Kamealoha juggles getting her drivers license and going to a high school dance with a cute surfer with her responsibilities at the hospital.

When hospital policy prevents Dr. Lahela "Doogie" Kamealoha from treating a patient with no insurance, Lahela vows to help the next person who walks through the doors no matter what…even when that someone is a little boy's dog. Meanwhile Lahela's brothers Kai and Brian Patrick help their dad Benny come to terms with the passing of Uncle John by planning a celebration of his life. It's a family affair, Kamealoha-style, and a welcome reminder that the people you love will always have your back.  

Lahela tackles two mysteries: the root cause of a tourist’s sudden paralysis and Walter’s feelings.

Lahela wonders if it’s time to define her relationship with Walter. That thought is suddenly sidelined when Walter is rushed to the hospital for an appendectomy — that falls on Lahela to perform. After Clara’s work conflicts with yet another family milestone, she decides to go part-time, much to everyone’s surprise. However, a big announcement at the hospital may change her mind. Both Lahela and her mom confront the challenges of being strong, smart women in today’s world.

Clara is determined to lock down the Chief of Staff position. While she tries to win over the outgoing Chief of Staff, Dr. Choi, Benny learns that Lahela is pursuing a new passion. She's intrigued with DripFlip, a website sneakerheads use to buy and sell limited-edition shoes for profit. He jumps at the chance to enjoy quality time with his daughter and impart wisdom from his stock-trading days. When Lahela takes it too far, Benny shares a lesson about balance and what's most important in life.

Lahela is touched by the love between an elderly patient and his new bride, and can envision a future with Walter. But Noelani forces Lahela to question the long-term viability of a teen doctor and a surfer/skater, encouraging her to accept an invitation to a poetry reading from a young college-bound hospital volunteer. When all-business Clara learns she has to schmooze with colleagues to win the Chief of Staff job, Benny encourages her to show them her fun side by teaching her to "talk story."

Lahela learns that she and Walter will be long-distance for the summer when he’s invited to join an Australian surf tour.

Now that Lahela has her driver’s license, she yearns for a little freedom — specifically, access to her mom’s car and a trip to Starbucks with her best friend, Steph. However, Clara is hesitant to hand over the keys. When Lahela’s patient, local celebrity weatherman Rip Tide, recommends that she take more risks and get behind the wheel of her own life, Lahela takes his advice quite literally. She takes the family car without permission.

Lahela and Clara work in sync and share a vision for their medical careers. That abruptly changes when Dr. Arthur Goldstein, a Seattle surgeon on the cutting edge of medical technology, visits the hospital. Benny is gearing up for his favorite surf competition only to discover that he's been placed in the seniors division. While Lahela contemplates a fellowship to study alongside Dr. Goldstein, Benny considers surfing 12-foot swells with Walter and his buddies to show he's still got it.

When Lahela learns Clara played in a ska-punk band in her twenties, she puts on a hospital talent show to get her mom back on stage. Lahela even suggests they sing together! Kai and Brian Patrick can't seem to do anything together without bickering, so Benny decides to teach them wayfinding—the ancient Polynesian practice of navigating the ocean without modern tools. Hopefully Lahela can keep her career anxieties out of rehearsal, and the boys can wayfind their way back to being buds.

Lahela finds Nico an experimental treatment for his cancer, which, if successful, would give him a new life. At home Clara takes matters into her own hands after realizing there are some pretty big gaps in Brian Patrick's health education. With encouragement from Kai, Brian Patrick's worst dreams come true when Clara's health talk for his school becomes a hip-hop extravaganza (and ovulation celebration). While new methods can be helpful, some things are a tale as old as time.

Lahela struggles to figure out where she fits in; she's not a normal doctor or a typical teen. She's too young to attend Dr. Lee's party with her medical colleagues, yet she's hosting an alumni booth for career day at her former high school. When Lahela decides to join the popular dance team at the high school, tension builds with Steph. At the hospital, Lahela tries to reconnect two estranged sisters for a kidney transplant, and finally realizes where she's fit in all along.

Now that Lahela's boyfriend Walter is back from his surf tour, Lahela worries she doesn't fit in with his new surfer crowd. To prove how fun she is, Lahela decides to host a party. Steph is on board—she and Kai still haven't talked about their kiss, and this will be the perfect opportunity to get clarity. Up at Uncle John's ranch, a business-minded Brian Patrick has plans to build a theme park…until Benny and Clara get a little help showing him the land is special even without a rollercoaster.

It's almost the weekend of the Jellyfish Jam. Lahela encourages Nico to attend the school dance, thinking it will cheer him up. When Walter and Lahela check in about the dance, Lahela learns it might be hard to get a picture together. Kai hopes to win Steph’s heart by entering the dance competition, but his coaches Charles and Noelani have their work cut out for them. Brian Patrick asks Benny to help him with his hair. Lahela may be a doctor, but there’s still no prescription for young love. 

Lahela attends her high school reunion looking fabulous. As Lahela campaigns to win "most successful alumni," she runs into former classmate Kayla, who reminds her what it really means to be successful. At the hospital, Chief of Staff Clara is sick of getting steamrolled. When Benny tells her his martial arts training always comes in handy during arguments, Clara imagines using kung fu moves against everyone who tries to diminish her authority. There are many ways to fight the good fight. 

Lahela accepts a medic job on Walter’s pro surf tour in Australia but Benny and Clara refuse to let their 16-year-old live with her boyfriend and leave her medical residency for the summer.

Lahela finishes a routine checkup with a patient at the hospital before leaving with her family and Steph for a staycation at Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa. But when Lahela's patient is readmitted with unusual symptoms, Lahela can't keep her mind off the case. While Kai tries to help Brian Patrick attend the Aloha Beach Party, Steph falls in with an independent group of ladies. At the end of this medical mystery, the secret is out: relaxing is good for doctors and teenagers. Case solved!

Lahela couldn't be more excited to captain her first overnight shift at the hospital. But when her co-workers tell her she’s a "black cloud," (a doctor with bad luck on their shifts) Lahela is even more determined to have nothing go wrong. Meanwhile Kai can't decide how to ask Steph to the Jellyfish Jam. It doesn't help that his parents Clara and Benny are giving him different ideas. It's a night of power outages, spaghetti chili, and flaming hearts. Let the sparks fly.

When Walter comes to Lahela with an apology, Lahela isn't sure what to think. There’s a lot on her mind—including her medical specialty and her former patient Nico. Benny and Brian Patrick help Clara plan the hospital gala, but all shell breaks loose when their ocean themed decor must be scrapped. Kai isn't much help, as he and Steph are the new parents to a bunny named Flemmy. Lahela realizes when the whole world wants you, the best thing to do is quiet your mind and listen to your heart.

It's hard to feel normal when you're a teenage doctor or a teenage cancer patient—but that's exactly what Lahela and Nico try to do for one glorious day. At school, Steph gets more Kai than she bargained for after PR guru Brian Patrick helps them "hard launch" their relationship. It’s a whirlwind day for Clara and Benny, who compete to see who has the tougher job. As it turns out, everyone could be reminded the grass isn't always greener on the other side. What matters is who's by your side.
