OKAY, AND YOU BE ONE OF THE GUYS,

AND I'LL BE DA.

"MY LOVING FAMILY. COME SIT WITH ME.

GUYS, I JUST WANTED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS DREAM WE HAVE.

I WANT TO BUILD A RANCH.

I KNOW WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER AS A FAMILY."

KELLY AND SARAH ARE JUST ACTUALLY TWO DOLLS THAT WE LIKE TO PLAY WITH.

THEY DO THEIR OWN THING, AND SOMETIMES THEY IMITATE

WHAT WE'RE DOING IN REALITY AND MAKE FUN OF THE BROTHERS.

ME, I'LL BE BEAR, AND I'LL CLIMB UP MOUNT...

AND TIE IT WITH MY TEETH WHILE I'M ON FIRE!

EXTREME DIGGING!

DIG, DIG, DIG, DIG, DIG, DIG, DIG, DIG, DIG!

I THINK, TO BE HONEST, RAIN AND I EVEN AS OLD WOMEN

WOULD STILL PLAY KELLY AND SARAH.

"I'M REALLY MOM. THE TEEPEE LOOKS REALLY GOOD."

"YOUR MOTHER CAN'T DO THINGS LIKE SHE USED TO DO."

JUST SOMETHING THAT I COULDN'T REALLY SEE US NOT DOING,

'CAUSE I'M -- I'M 23, AND I'M STILL PLAYING WITH THEM.

- I'M BAM. I'M BAM. - NO, I'M BAM.

- I'M BAM. - MAAH!

"WHY DID YOU MAKE IT INSIDE OUT?!

WHERE IS MATT?! WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?!"

WHEN BIRD AND I PLAY KELLY AND SARAH,

WE TEND TO KIND OF SECRETLY GRIPE.

"I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!"

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU RUSHED AND BUILT A TEEPEE

WITHOUT DA ON MY PROPERTY!"

- GET OUT. - OH, OH!

IT'S LIKE A NICE LITTLE, LIKE, ESCAPE FROM REALITY --

YOU KNOW, SISTER BONDING TIME.

LET'S ALL GO TO BED NOW, GUYS.

ON THIS EPISODE OF "ALASKAN BUSH PEOPLE"...

I CAN TELL FROM HERE IT'S CROOKED.

DANG IT.

I TRY NOT TO SETTLE FOR LESS THAN PERFECTION.

...WITH BILLY, AMI, AND BEAR

EN ROUTE FOR CRITICAL MEDICAL TESTS...

THAT'S BEEN MY JOB THE WHOLE TIME. MOVE OVER.

THEN YOU'RE GONNA NEED A HARNESS.

NO, I DON'T.

...THE BROWN SIBLINGS REACH A BREAKING POINT.

- YOU ALL RIGHT? - NO.

IF I'M UPSET ABOUT SOMETHING, YOU'RE GONNA KNOW IT.

I'VE HAD ENOUGH. I'M DONE.

YOU CAN'T SHOW UP IN THE END OF THE DAY

AND THEN TRY AND ACT LIKE YOU'RE TEACHING ME HOW TO DO EVERYTHING.

AND AS ELDEST DAUGHTER, BIRD, TAKES HER FINAL SHOT...

TODAY'S THE DAY I'M GONNA GET A TURKEY.

...THE WOLF PACK MUST FIND A WAY TO COME TOGETHER.

- LITTLE MORE. LITTLE MORE. - BAM, COME HELP.

THERE'S NO WAY I CAN STOP IT.

UGH. IT'S TOO BRIGHT. IT'S WAY TOO BRIGHT.

MAYBE I SHOULD BREAK OUT THE BERMUDA SHORTS.

IN A REMOTE CORNER OF THE BROWNS' PROPERTY,

BAM BROWN IS MOVING FORWARD

CLEARING FELLED TREES FROM HIS 10-ACRE PARCEL,

LOCATED 1 1/2 MILES FROM THE FAMILY'S MAIN CAMPSITE.

JUST CUT A ROW OF TREES DOWN,

AND THEN I COME THROUGH AND I BRUSH THEM

AND I TAKE OFF ALL THE LIMBS AND EVERYTHING.

AND THEN I CUT INTO THE SECTIONS THAT I CAN USE LATER

FOR SOMETHING.

THESE PARTS, THE LIMBS, THESE ARE FOR MULCH.

WE USE THE MULCH ON OUR TRAILS. WE USE IT IN OUR GARDENS.

THEY CAN USE IT AROUND THE TREES

OR THE ORCHARDS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

IT'S A RESOURCE THAT I DON'T WANT TO WASTE.

A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD JUST STACK THIS UP AND BURN IT,

AND THAT IS A TOTAL WASTE.

YOU CAN REALLY PICTURE IT --

THE SMELL OF THE BARBECUE GRILL, THE ADIRONDACK CHAIRS, THE VIEW.

IF YOU NOTICE -- LISTEN FOR A SECOND.

NOBODY'S TALKING.

I THINK EVERYBODY'S SO COMMITTED TO GETTING THE BARN UP,

AND EVEN DOING THAT BEFORE THE HOUSES,

BECAUSE LESS GOES INTO BUILDING A BARN THAN A HOUSE.

BUT THERE'S NOTHING TO SAY THAT IN YOUR SPARE TIME --

WHAT SPARE TIME YOU HAVE -- YOU CAN'T WORK ON YOUR OWN STUFF

AND GO AHEAD AND GET THAT STARTED.

MY GOAL IS TO BUILD AS MUCH AS I CAN BEFORE WINTER HITS

AND HOPEFULLY GET THE HOUSE GOING.

ONE IN BROWNTOWN, TO BE HONEST, YOU KNOW,

'CAUSE WE WERE ALL THERE. YES.

LIKE, NOTHING SPECIFIC STOOD OUT, YOU KNOW?

WE WERE JUST ROASTING MARSHMALLOWS AND JUST TALKING.

I MISS THAT, TOO.

YOU KNOW, IT FEELS REALLY GOOD FOR, UH,

THE SIBLINGS OF US THAT ARE HERE TO BE OUT UNDER THE STARS,

YOU KNOW, COOKING ON AN OPEN FIRE.

BUT AS NICE AS IT FEELS, IT DOES FEEL REALLY WEIRD

THAT, LIKE, THE WHOLE FAMILY'S NOT HERE.

THESE BENCHES ARE LOOKING PRETTY EMPTY, GUYS.

BEING OUT HERE UNDER THE STARS BY THE CAMPFIRE,

COULDN'T GET MUCH BETTER, UH,

BUT IT'S JUST NOT RIGHT WITHOUT ALL OF US.

IT HURTS MY FEELINGS THAT, LIKE,

WE'RE JUST NOT AS CLOSE AS WE USED TO BE.

AND EVERYBODY'S ALL MOVED IN TOGETHER.

I THINK THAT'LL HELP MAKE IT SEEM MORE LIKE HOME.

THIS IS DEFINITELY, LIKE, THE FIRST REAL TEST

ONCE WE ALL GET BACK IN ON IT,

THAT BARN'S GONNA GO UP QUICK, FAST, AND IN A HURRY.

THE KIDS GET AN EARLY START, PREPARING THE BARN SITE

FOR THE NEXT STAGE OF CONSTRUCTION.

WE GOT THROUGH WITH THE PILINGS.

WE GOT SOME FRAMING UP ON THE WALLS. IT'S ROOF TIME.

FIRST STEP TO DOING THAT IS PUTTING UP TRUSSES.

THESE TRUSSES, THEY'RE QUITE A MONSTROSITY.

IT'S -- IT'S NOT GONNA BE EASY.

DESIGNED TO SUPPORT THE BARN ROOF,

THE 42 TRUSSES WILL SIT ATOP THE POSTS

AND MUST ALIGN PERFECTLY DOWN THE LENGTH OF THE STRUCTURE.

THE BARN IS VERY IMPORTANT. IT'S THE BEGINNING OF EVERYTHING.

IT'S BAD ON MYSELF, BECAUSE I WANT TO BE HERE.

IT'S BAD ON THE KIDS, TOO, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW,

IT MAKES ANOTHER PRESSURE ON THEM.

INSTEAD OF THE BARN BEING SOMETHING WE'RE ALL BUILDING

TOGETHER AND ALL, NOW THE PRESSURE'S ON FOR THEM.

WHILE THE KIDS PREPARE FOR THEIR FIRST INSTALLATION,

YOUNGEST BROTHER NOAH HAS BEEN CHARGED

WITH CONSTRUCTING EACH TRUSS

I GUESS YOU COULD SAY THAT IF BAM WAS HERE,

THINGS WOULD GO QUITE A BIT FASTER.

HOISTING THE 13-FOOT FRAMES INTO PLACE.

WE DON'T HAVE REALLY GOOD SURFACES TO STAND ON.

THIS IS A BIG PROJECT, YOU KNOW?

ALL HANDS ON DECK WORKING ON THE BARN.

SO I'M HOPING THERE'S SOMETHING MAYBE I CAN HELP HIM WITH,

MAKE IT A LITTLE FASTER SO I CAN PULL HIM OFF OF WHATEVER HE'S DOING

GUESS WHAT THIS IS GONNA BE.

UM, I'M GONNA GUESS A LUMBER YARD.

AT THE MOMENT, IT IS A LUMBER YARD, BUT, NO.

OHH!

ON THEIR REMOTE MOUNTAIN PROPERTY,

GABE, BIRD, RAIN, AND BAM

ARE ATTEMPTING TO FINISH A BARN ROOF

AHEAD OF THEIR PARENTS' RETURN FROM CALIFORNIA.

- GIVE ME THE HAMMER. - I'LL HAMMER IT.

THAT'S BEEN MY JOB THE WHOLE TIME. MOVE OVER.

THEN YOU'RE GONNA NEED A HARNESS.

NO, I DON'T.

BIRDY, YOU'RE COMPLETELY NOT BEING SAFE.

BUT AFTER DAYS OF DYSFUNCTION,

THE CONFLICT BETWEEN SIBLINGS HAS REACHED A BOILING POINT.

BAM WAS JUST NOT LETTING ME HELP.

HE'S JUST NOT BEING A TEAM PLAYER AT ALL.

IT'S SUPER-FRUSTRATING.

I'VE HAD ENOUGH. I'M DONE.

IT'S A LITTLE BIT HARDER WORKING WITH BAM NOW.

I AM A LITTLE BIT CONCERNED THAT WE'RE GONNA FIND A WAY

TO GET EVERYONE TO WORK TOGETHER AS A TEAM.

YOU WANT TO HAVE A SEAT?

I COULD USE A LITTLE BIT OF A BREAK.

REALLY, THIS BARN IS JUST A SHOW

OF WHAT WE CAN DO AS A FAMILY AND AS A TEAM.

AND SO IF WE CAN'T PULL TOGETHER FOR THE FIRST STEP OF THE DREAM,

I MEAN, WHAT IS IT FOR?

ONE THING THAT I'VE NOTICED

IS THAT YOU, UM...

I'M JUST GONNA BE BLUNT WITH YOU, OKAY?

PLEASE DO.

I THINK THAT YOU COULD HELP OUT MORE.

YOU COULD SHOW UP ON TIME MORE.

IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT FOR EVERYBODY

TO GET INVOLVED WITH THIS.

TEAMWORK IS IMPORTANT.

MM-HMM.

THE ONLY REASON I DO ANY OF THE THINGS THAT I DO

IS FOR MY FAMILY, BECAUSE I LOOK OUT FOR THE PEOPLE THAT I CARE ABOUT.

I THINK THAT THEY DON'T FULLY APPRECIATE IT ALL THE TIME.

AND I JUST KNOW THAT THE FIRST TIME I STEP AWAY

TO NOT BE THE GUY TELLING THEM TO RESPECT THE DANGER,

SOMEONE'S GONNA LOSE THEIR PINKY.

I'M JUST ME ALL THE TIME.

IF I'M UPSET ABOUT SOMETHING, YOU'RE GONNA KNOW IT.

BUT JUST TELL ME IF I'M DOING SOMETHING

'CAUSE MAYBE THEN I CAN FIX IT.

CAN I CONFESS SOMETHING TO YOU?

I ACTUALLY THINK THAT WE NEED YOUR HELP

A LOT MORE THAN WE WANT TO LET ON.

AW, THANK YOU.

THAT'S JUST SO YOU KNOW.

I THINK THAT EVERYBODY, WHETHER THEY SAY IT OR NOT,

THEY DO LOOK UP TO YOU.

I THINK THAT THEY SEEK YOUR APPROVAL

A LOT MORE THAN YOU THINK THEY DO,

AND I THINK THAT WE NEED YOU A LOT MORE THAN YOU THINK WE DO.

AND THE LONGER YOU CAN BE ON SITE, THE BETTER IT MAKES IT.

IF WE CAN'T COME TOGETHER, THERE IS NOT GONNA BE A BARN

I'M NOT THE KIND OF GUY THAT LIKES STORE-BOUGHT.

I'M NOT A TURNKEY KIND OF GUY.

I KIND OF LIKE TO MAKE MY OWN IN THIS WORLD.

TODAY, THE SOLUTION WAS MAKING A CRUTCH

OUT OF A SHOVEL AND A HANDSAW.

HOT!

THIS SECTION UP HERE IS GOING TO GO UNDERNEATH MY SHOULDER.

AND THEN THIS SECTION WILL BE THE HANDLE THAT I CAN HOLD ONTO.

MIGHT ACTUALLY GO FUR-SIDE IN, KIND OF MAKE MORE OF A CUSHION.

SO THAT PART'S GONNA GO UP UNDERNEATH MY ARM.

IT'LL KEEP THE SHARP METAL FROM CUTTING ME.

OH, IT'S NICE AND SOFT, TOO.

IT'S ALMOST AN ARTISTIC FLAIR FOR ME.

IT'S LIKE -- SOME PEOPLE DABBLE IN OILS OR MARBLE OR STONE.

OKAY. UH, BAM, TAKE MY HARNESS.

EVEN THOUGH BAM IS HERE --

YOU KNOW, HE DID FINALLY SHOW UP --

IT'S LIKE WE STILL HAVE TO WORK AS A TEAM.
