S01E07 Cruise Ship Engine

They promised a Bahamas cruise. Fun in the sun. But for Riley, this Caribbean voyage is no vacation. He's racing the clock on a titanic repair: a 90,000-ton cruise ship speeding toward one of the world's largest dry docks. The mission is to install a massive new diesel generator. First, they must dock the ship. Then the real chaos begins. A huge crew opens the hull, rips out old piping, and makes space for a two-story addition. Their goal is to cram a 320-ton generator inside, then reassemble everything—in just twenty days. If it's not ready, the next batch of passengers won't be pleased.
