Original subtitles

It looks like it oughta be something edible.

Ooh, yeah. My throat is on fire.

- It feels like it's trying to close.

My teammates took a bite of something

that we believe is toxic.

Oh, [bleep].

Can we get the medic here?

I'm seeing a lot of wildlife,

a wall of green that's pretty intimidating that doesn't look penetrable.

But what I'm seeing when I look at this,

I'm seeing redemption.

It means the world to me to get a second chance at this.

I feel blessed.

Moment of truth has arrived, and I'm here for it.

I can't say enough

how excited I am for this redemption,

this opportunity to get this 21 days under my belt.

I have never wanted anything more in my life.

I'm out here to not only prove it to myself,

but to prove it to everybody at home that I can do this.

Twenty-one-day redemption. Let's go!

On a remote lake,

deep in the jungles of Palawan Island in the Philippines,

four survivalists are returning to Naked and Afraid

to redeem their past failures.

They will begin the challenge in teams of two

on the Philippines' brutal terrain,

deadly venomous snakes

and extreme weather for 21 days.

Super nervous. I'm not sure if they're anxious nerves

or just nervous nerves.

I just wanna get boots on the ground and get started.

Chad's back. Redemption time.

The big problem last time for me was downtime.

And it allowed me to have time to think negative thoughts.

I allowed myself to do what I said I wouldn't do

and go down the rabbit hole.

- How you feeling, man? I'm tapping.

I regretted it immediately.

Thank God my family is very loving and supportive,

and that's the motivation to get through this.

My wife said she would divorce me

if I showed up before this challenge was done.

So, the mindset out here is gonna be day by day,

and just keep a positive mindset

because it is highly intimidating.

Well, apologies for what comes next,

but you're gonna see one pale Canadian.

After tapping out on day ten in South Africa,

Chad begins his redemption challenge

- with a primitive survival rating of 5.9. - Let's do it.

Somewhere out here is another equally as crazy of a person,

and now I just have to go and find them.

Land ho!

I'm from Key West, Florida,

and I work in a hospital ICU.

I'm so excited to get a chance at redemption.

All right.

Let's get this party started.

My last challenge was 14 days

and we only made it nine.

Our fire is going out

and, like, hypothermia, is a...

- It's an issue.

We don't wanna tap, we don't wanna tap,

but you know, it's the smart thing to do.

Tapping out is quite possibly

the worst feeling that you can possibly have,

next to freezing to death.

Had I just created a shelter a little bit differently,

I'd be walking out on day 14.

I made a stupid mistake on my last challenge.

I've been studying shelter building,

and I have no doubt

that I can make it the full 21 days.

Andrew begins this challenge with a PSR of 5.1.

Where's my partner? Let's go.

- Just two dudes doing what naked dudes do, I guess. - Right.

- How doing, fella?

- Good, good. What's your name, man? - Chad.

- Chad. Andrew. Nice to meet you, man. - Andrew.

Nice to meet you. Your first time?

- No. This is a redemption for me, so... Me too.

- Doesn't that make this conversation easier, then? - Hell, yes. All right.

So, you think we can do the 21 days?

I think we're definitely gonna do the 21 days, pal.

We have no choice. This is our redemption.

- All right. You got that right, my friend.

Let's go and check out what we got over here.

- Right. What you got?

Well, I got my blade.

All right, so I got some fishing line

with a variety of different hooks.

My partner Andrew seems totally rad.

He brought the fishing gear this time.

I love that.

I couldn't be more excited.

We got a pot and a fire starter.

All nerves are gone, and now it's showtime.

Here we go. I guess this is where we're at.

Wait a minute.

We are meeting two more people.

Hell, yeah. Ooh!

The two tribes will begin their redemption challenge

on opposite sides of a large lake

before merging on day 11

for an all-out battle for redemption.

Whoo!

Finally, I am back.

It's naked time.

It's redemption time. I'm ready, baby.

Let's go!

I'm from Yonkers, New York, and I'm an outdoor educator.

I am very New York, but I'm not a city slicker.

I was born in Jamaica.

Spent a lot of time living off the land,

learning how to live, learning how to survive.

The last challenge was in South Africa,

and it was brutal.

We didn't have a shelter ready.

You're both tapping?

I have to. Unfortunately, I have to.

I know what it feels like to leave.

Now I need to know what it feels like to stay.

And I'm ready for it, and I'm prepared for it.

Chev starts the challenge with a PSR of 5.7.

- Hey. How you doing? What's up, man?

- Nice to meet you, man. - How are you?

- Pleasure. Pleasure. - You too. What's your name?

- Chev. What's your name? - Chev? I recognize you. I'm Tray.

You recognize me? - I recognize you.

Cool. - You look familiar.

What got you into this whole thing? Why do you wanna do this?

Just wanna know I can take on any location at any time,

- if necessary. - That's good.

- How about you? - Redemption.

- Redemption? - Yeah.

- Me too. - It's time to get to 21.

- Me too. - Okay. Then we got something in common.

- Let's do it. - Let's do it.

Yes, sir. - 21 or bust, right?

I'm from southern Indiana and I'm a caver.

My first challenge was in Canyon del Diablo of Baja, Mexico.

I'm sorry I have to leave you. - It's okay.

Being without a partner from days four through 12

was really hard.

The location was a bit too much.

Ultimately, it was the dehydration that took me out.

Too physically exhausted to keep going.

I'm gonna tap.

I can't stress enough how much it eats at the soul

when you utter those words, "I tap."

Tray is entering this challenge with a PSR of 6.1.

No tapping.

- I don't do that. Again. - All right.

- No, never again. - It happened then and that was that.

- It's happened once, it won't happen again. Yeah.

I want somebody that's gonna make it to day 21 with me.

- All right, let's go see what our items are. - Let's do it.

All right. Cool.

I brought power cord.

Awesome. I can think of a lot of uses for that.

Shelter. Traps.

I've got my knife. Beautiful.

And we got a nice cast net.

Be good for getting some fish.

Looks like we've also got a fire starter. Mmm-hmm.

I did notice that we don't have a pot.

Well, we can definitely use some bamboo to boil water.

We also need something else.

- I guess we need to find our way around, don't we? - Yes, we do.

Let's see what we've got and where we're headed.

Looks like we're here.

That's where we're going.

I'm noticing four stick figures here.

Yeah, that looks good.

Just found out this is gonna be a tribal challenge.

That's pretty awesome.

Definitely gonna wanna build a raft

to get us over there.

Chev's great and all, but who knows?

After ten days, we might be tired of each other

and looking for more people to mingle with.

Yeah, man. Let's do it. All right.

Big old coconut tree.

Do you have any coconuts?

Yeah. I can make you a bra if you want one.

A brassiere.

You guys stuck me with a happy go lucky Canadian guy.

Wow. There's lots of bamboo, hey? Wow. Yeah.

We're gonna get along so great

and just destroy this challenge.

So, what do you think our priorities should be?

I think fire is gonna be very key to get our water

'cause we're gonna dehydrate fast.

I think that's almost more important than shelter at this point.

The weather presents a daunting challenge.

The heat and humidity

form a heat index in excess of 110 degrees,

rivaled only by spurts of torrential rain and high winds.

- Looks like we got our palm trees. Yeah.

I think that's where we're headed.

I've seen Chev's episode.

I remember watching him and his partner.

Going into this,

you were one of the first ones, actually, that come to mind

as somebody that I would like to have as a partner.

Really? Yeah. Absolutely.

Absolutely. Even though I was an [bleep] to Elsa?

You're crushing the fire when you make it like that.

A fire needs oxygen.

- Without oxygen, it ain't going anywhere. I know.

- I know. There's no oxygen in that fire right now.

I'm sorry.

I can't do this anymore. This is stress...

This is unnecessary stress in my life.

If I remember right, she didn't pull her weight

- with the firewood and the water and that. - Right. Yeah.

And at that point, I'm losing everything.

I'm losing my cool. I'm annoyed now.

Hopefully, I don't piss him off and we get along just fine.

Oh, yeah. I'm starting to see the coconuts here.

This is looking good.

- This is looking good. Yeah. I'm liking our neighborhood.

Look at all that bamboo. Lots of bamboo.

Tray is a really cool dude.

I think we're gonna get along, actually.

We have the same agenda. Get to 21.

We're gonna make it work.

See what we got, where we wanna be.

This up here looks good.

That looks to me like the flattest spot we've seen, too,

- without being right out on the beach. Yeah.

This looks like it.

The cobras hide underneath

- a lot of the dried leaves. Mmm-hmm.

Oh! Look at... That's a snake.

That's a snake, bro. That's a big snake.

That's a big snake.

That's a couple of meters.

Cobra swim.

The king cobra

is one of several deadly snakes on Palawan Island.

Hiding in the bamboo is the Schultze's Pit Viper,

a hollow fanged predator whose bite contains

a lethal mix of neurotoxins

that can cause tissue death, shock and respiratory failure.

This place is wild. It's definitely the jungle.

Holy cow.

No joke, It's hard walking in this heat.

We got anything close here for resources?

'Cause this isn't too bad here.

- You like this? - You wanna call this home?

We got shade...

Close to the water down here. Close to the water.

I think this is gonna be home.

Chad and Andrew will craft a raised platform from bamboo planks,

topped by an A-frame roof

and insulated with palm fronds and debris.

We should maybe do, like, a little bit of bushwhacking first.

- Absolutely. Absolutely. - Kind of clear this out.

There is plenty of bamboo.

We need quite a bit.

Mmm-hmm.

It's definitely hot, humid,

and everything's wanting to prick you.

The forest drew blood early.

Both of us.

This kind of shelter, you think?

I think two lean-tos meeting each other.

Chev and Tray are building a shelter

made from two bamboo lean-tos

connected by a single cross beam,

with layered planks and broad leaf debris fortifying the roof.

That's it right there.

The shelter's coming together nicely.

We've got a long ways to go and little time to do it.

I have never cut down bamboo in my life.

I've never worked with it.

So, yeah, we're gonna try this out and see how it all goes.

We're out here now building shelter

and doing what we need to do to get set up.

It is insanely hot. Indescribable.

It is really, really hot out here.

It's important that we get water going as soon as possible.

I'm just dripping with sweat right now.

Hopefully, I will have a fire going for us in just a minute.

Thanks for taking that challenge on there, Andrew.

Appreciate you being on top of the shelter there.

That, my friend, is how you make fire.

Whoa!

- Look at you. Whoo-hoo! We got fire, brother.

I'm gonna go get some water and get our water started boiling.

- We gonna build from that side towards the tree, then? Yeah.

Day one is going really, really well.

My partner and I are getting along well.

How you feel on hydration? Feeling good?

Probably wouldn't be a bad idea

to at least try to keep ahead of the game.

It's beautiful that we're able to get some coconut water.

Oh, I see liquid.

We're talking good hydration and potassium.

That's it. You feel that?

- Yeah. - Yeah, buddy.

Good fat from the coconut oil.

Chev seems to really be a wealth of knowledge.

That works, my bro.

You know, he's from Jamaica,

so he's familiar with some of the plant life

- that's in this region.

The name of the game with bamboo now is gentle.

Right. - If you're not gentle...

...it's just gonna split up on you.

- See that?

So, we just got our bamboo mugs, our cups,

and I'm gonna go down to the water, fill it up.

Got our water now.

This is, like, exactly what I was envisioning.

- My man. Okay. - You know?

Andrew is just the coolest dude.

We're getting along so well.

I think we bring equal skills to the table, from what I can tell so far.

We're cooking up some good ideas,

and we're banging those out.

One of my first priorities is making sure that

we have a roof for our shelter

because last time, I got caught lacking

and that cost me the challenge.

Is that rain or wind?

- Oh, [bleep].

Dude, here comes the rain.

I can see her coming, man. It's a wall of water.

That is not good.

We don't have a roof yet.

And here it comes, baby.

Wow.

This has been my concern the whole time, my friend.

- This is terrible.

- It's like South Africa all over again. - Oh, man.

We won't make it through the night like this.

That's what I'm saying.

I'm already getting cold.

We won't make it through the night like this.

Wow.

You know what would be a lot better than being rained on?

- Having a roof. - Having a roof.

I swear Mother Nature just loves to test me, man.

Every single time.

Rain, rain, rain.

- All right, rain... That's enough.

...go bother the other tribe for a minute now, you know?

Yeah.

Yeah, baby!

I knew we were gonna get it eventually.

Yeah.

Just went, got nice banana leaves to add to our shelter.

We're gonna make this thing beautiful.

Overall, day one is good.

We're not looking to do everything today.

That should be good for now.

We're just trying to do the basics that we need

to at least have something over our heads for tonight,

and then we can go from there.

I'm pretty happy about that right now.

Here I lay in our makeshift shelter.

So, we gotta finish putting all the foliage up here,

and we've gotta make it much thicker.

But at least we have some shade

and a little bit of rain cover.

We'll improve the rest tomorrow.

Yeah, the bugs are out tonight. They sure are.

The rain came, you know? Yeah.

Yep.

Smoke it out.

All the flying insects,

have really come out since the the rain today.

They're just swarming us.

So just trying to combat the bugs at this point.

Got a a burning branch in here on the floor.

What the f?

Did they just, like, hatch from something

- and just, like, all decide to come out at the same time? - Yeah.

I don't know what the hell this is all about.

Oh, [bleep]. Look at that.

That's what they are. They're termites.

This is horrible.

Yo, bro. Like, this is crazy.

Thousands of termites decided to hatch...

And come bother us. ...and come land on us.

That is... I can feel them crawling all over me.

Yeah. One more curveball Mother Nature has for us.

Good morning.

We're gonna go down and see if we can't

get this cast net in the water

and maybe pull in some breakfast.

First time around, it's hard to say what we're gonna get.

Trial and error, right?

And that was not it.

Honestly, I don't know what I'm doing.

Try to figure out a technique here.

The cast net that we have, it's for larger fish.

The fish that I'm seeing so far

have been really tiny here,

nothing more than three inches.

That throw wasn't horrible,

but it also didn't land quite right, either.

Trial and error, brother. Trial and error.

Day two.

Plan... Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.

Then catch fish.

Pretty confident about fishing

and my abilities to catch fish.

I'm gonna search for snails

and anything else we could use for bait.

Found one.

Ooh. There's one.

yeah!

I just landed the first fish of the day,

and hopefully we got a whole lot more coming behind this one

'cause I don't think that one's gonna feed the both of us.

Whoo!

All right. Hell yeah, brother. - Number two, bro.

It's crazy. Like, our day just started and I'm already wiped.

It is really hot and humid out here,

and it's really hard trying to get things done.

Yes, yes.

We gotta be out of here for 21 days.

I don't wanna overdo it, don't wanna overheat.

- We are fish rich. Yeah, bro.

How do you feel right now? Hydrated?

I feel pretty decent.

Boiling water using bamboo takes a long time.

About 45 minutes to boil.

But maybe the water is actually perfectly fine

and we can drink it. I don't know.

- Look at this. Look how clean this is. Yeah.

You telling me you don't want that sip?

Waterborne pathogens, they're invisible.

Chev wants to drink the lake water,

and it is a risk that, frankly, has me pretty concerned.

- What happens? Basically,

you get the really bad.

A parasite's a parasite.

It can take down the biggest and the strongest of us all.

I wait for it to boil.

I'm gonna take a sip right now.

Slowly, I've been putting it on my lips.

Is it making me puke? What's going on?

Obviously, I don't wanna get to the puking and the other situation,

but just checking it out, slowly building it in.

I'm gonna give another sip a shot.

- Took one earlier. I'm gonna take another one right now. Hey... Wow.

You know where I stand on it.

I really don't want to be out here alone.

I didn't wanna be out on my first one alone.

Dun-dun-dun.

I've done it alone

and I don't wanna go back there again.

I will let you be the guinea pig.

Just don't leave me here alone.

Dehydration took you out last time,

and here you are refusing to drink water.

That's a good point, but [bleep] myself to death

is gonna dehydrate me even faster.

It's just so hot. It just, like, sucks the life out of you.

You know what? I'm gonna go lake it up...

Do it. Do it, man.

- ...and just try to cool off. I'll take care of all this.

I'm gonna get the fish going.

With this challenge,

you're not both gonna be 100% through the whole journey.

Oh, yeah, that's rumbling good.

It has to be a give and take. You're there to help each other out.

Yeah. Do you want your sunburn?

Do you want... What do you want?

These are little tank fish.

Between scales and bones,

there's not a whole lot of meat.

Fish is ready.

Maybe five, seven grams of protein tops.

You're gonna have to bring in, you know, 20 of those a day.

- Looks like little fangs.

Big for a little fish. Mmm-hmm.

Wild.

What a disappointment.

We need more food.

The nights here are extremely long.

My struggle out here is what it was in Africa as well.

Downtime.

All kinds of thoughts start coming to me in the downtime

of my family, which just breaks my heart.

I live and breathe for my family.

I want to spend every second I can with them,

and that's just my sickness.

Excited to get this day started.

About done sitting there, laying around.

Jeez. It's not in me to do that.

These little fish that we're catching,

as much as it feels good and it's fun,

the amount of time it takes us to get the bait

and pull in this little fish...

I mean, they're all scales and ribs.

So today we thin we're gonna try our luck in the bay over here,

just around the bend,

in hopes maybe that's where the catfish will be.

Knowing what we know of catfish,

they like this muddy flats kind of bay area,

so I'm gonna tie one line to this big log you see in front of me here,

and another one right over there to that log there,

and see what happens. We have two snails.

Got my passive fishing line set right there.

Hopefully, at some point,

one of us will have a catfish.

Let the lines work for you.

Name of the game is hydration.

So far, so good, the water has been good with me, so I don't know.

Maybe I'll just dive in there and come up with a mouthful

and...

Nothing will get me.

We've got a couple of bunches here,

- but then there's also... how many on that side?

There's some small ones.

Those coconut could be a real resource.

It's like one of the best hydration food.

Lots of potassium, lots of magnesium,

lots of all the essential things

that your body actually needs to keep going.

- There's one little one on this side. - There's two right here.

Let's try to get these two around.

When Chev finds something that he wants,

the lake water, you know, the coconuts,

Chev is gonna do it.

I'm gonna climb it.

Wow.

That's a pretty big risk, climbing these trees.

One false move,

and you're probably gonna survive it,

but it's probably also gonna take you out of the challenge.

Whoa, [bleep].

Climbing these trees is always a risky move.

Whoa, [bleep].

This [bleep] is hard.

I gotta come back down.

Let's play it safe and simple.

I'm thinking, if we can get this...

This is bamboo.

So, we devised, basically, a bamboo pick.

- We're gonna go up in between the two. Yeah.

We wanna hook it in there.

You wanna hook behind. Close. Yeah.

That pole is incredibly heavy.

Our communication is horrible.

- Twirl it, shove up. Okay.

And that will kick it off.

With the hydration, boiling some cups

is far, far, far easier

than going after those coconuts.

If you turn in slow... Maybe pull...

Oh.

What did I say? All right.

I want us to keep getting after these coconuts.

More coconut, the better it is for both of us.

- Cheers. We need that kind of nourishment.

I got maybe two big swallows out of this whole thing.

I'm not sure that it was worth

all the calories that we burned trying to get it.

For me, 100% worth the effort.

I don't know that it is. I got... - For me...

I can get more swallows out of a cup of water.

I'm pretty scared on what I'm feeling right now.

As everybody knows, my big struggles last challenge

were the downtime.

The goal of staying busy is not feasible

due to the extreme heat.

So, I need to develop

how to lay down and do nothing for a while.

It just don't want to.

It kills my soul.

Chad's got a lot going on upstairs, man.

You know, he left his last challenge because he missed his family.

So I'm just trying to do what I can...

Oh, buddy. Thank you.

...to alleviate any possibility

of him and his mental attitude

straying from just getting this challenge completed.

I want, like, a bazillion more of those coconuts.

And go on and on about it.

What do you think those ducks are after? Fish?

Maybe. Maybe snails?

I'm hearing something in here.

Oh. Wait, wait, wait.

I see some movement in the cattails.

Could be a snake.

Honestly, I'm thinking about just busting into this bush and going up in there.

I would be really, really careful about that.

Any bite from a reptile...

In water. ...can make you very, very sick,

and potentially be lethal.

Oh, I got one.

It's a fish? Yep. Sure was.

I couldn't get a good look at it, but it looked like a catfish.

Maybe we can kind of corral.

- That's a fish. Go right there.

You seen anything?

I'm not. I'm not even seeing any stirred up mud.

Snails, baby. Awesome.

Oh, I see one.

Snail? Yeah.

Ooh! What you got?

Big ones... Oh, nice.

Snail isn't what we set out for, but it's a sure thing.

Looks like we got the making of a pretty big feast.

Protein.

Just to keep our energy going.

That's the goal until we meet our other partners.

Hopefully, they're having just as much luck as we are.

Sending good prayers their way.

Trying to get the motivation to carry on through the day.

Chad's in a negative headspace.

I'm gonna go check the fishing lines.

No, I'll come with you, man.

Let's go see the fish we got.

I'm trying to be the cheerleader

and just keep the pep in our step to keep us going.

And you know, a catfish would be nice.

Ooh, the line is tight.

I can see that there's something floating,

but, you know, it was wrapped around the tree,

so it took me a while to get to it.

Got one.

Yeah, something big.

I knew it 'cause it was so tight it wrapped around that log.

Show me.

Oh, my God, that's a catfish, baby!

- Whoo! Whoo!

That is some meat there, amigo.

Yes! - Whoo!

That just took all kind of stress away, you know?

It's been such an uphill battle.

Every day, every night, Mother Nature has been wicked.

Starting to feel a little more like home.

I mean, you can tell he was floating there for a little while, but...

That don't matter, man. One day, it's still in the water.

Yep.

Oh, no I don't know if he is good, dude.

That quickly, man.

Mother Nature. She just has to, you know,

hammer down on us.

I'm not sure, man.

Maybe I'm just taking it too negatively,

but I don't think we deserve

everything that she's throwing at us.

That sucks.

It should be a good boost. Mmm-hmm.

Especially considering we've had no protein.

Making gourmet coconut.

Coconut steamed snail.

Coconut is a part of my DNA, I guess.

In my country, in Jamaica, in my culture,

coconut is used for everything.

Cook, clean.

Can't do without these babies, so...

I'm gonna rename coconut water "God juice."

Coconut water.

I'm gonna say they're done.

You'll be the first to eat it first.

It is good. - It's delicious.

- It's kind of a fishy type flavor. Mmm-hmm.

Cheers, my brother.

- Yes, sir. Here's to you.

Way to go! Whoo!

A successful first try of the snails.

The morning of day six

and I am not well today.

I'm struggling so hard with our downtime.

It's a dark place for me, you know.

I don't know how to control my thoughts.

I started thinking about the kids and the wife.

I'll never put myself in a situation

where I don't have communication with them ever again.

I don't like that. It doesn't make me feel good.

I just wanna shake it. I just wanna shake it.

You know, I will tell you, coming out here twice

sure does show you, you know,

what's most important to you and what matters.

And it'll show your weaknesses real quick.

Now, I am really, really hot.

I'm gonna grab some firewood, and then I'm gonna head back.

It tears me up

'cause you think you're better than that,

and it's a kick in the ass when you're not.

I'm just not enough of a man to...

...deal with the biggest part of this challenge

and deal with all that downtime like that. I can't do it.

Bro, I need you to listen to me for a bit, man.

We need to talk.

I'm really struggling with the downtime,

and I'm really struggling without...

- All right.

...without talking to my kids.

I can't marinate anymore, man.

- Bro, you sure, man?

You sure you wanna do this, man?

You've been crushing it this whole time, bro.

I mean, it's all I have in me, man.

You have a strong mind to be able to do this,

and this is where I'm falling short.

And I just hope to God that you've got it in you

to power through this, man...

...'cause that would kill me

to have you tap on my behalf. I'm so sorry.

I mean, you gotta do what's right for you, man, at the end of the day.

I sure hope you got this. - I mean...

Bro, I got this.

- I hope so, buddy. - I got this, man.

- Right, well, let me send you off then, buddy.

My kids are constantly saying to me, you know,

"Don't come home this time till you're done."

- Chad.

So it bothered me that I can't give them that,

but they know who their dad is.

They know what I'm capable of.

And I guess the lesson out of this for them

will be that, you know, you can't win everything.

Daddy fails too.

It sucks to tap.

Of course, I wish I would have gotten redemption.

That's what we came here for.

It's what I wanted.

But, you know, at the end of the day,

this challenge just isn't for me.

That sucks.

I'm sad to see him go.

I've got five days

out her in the Philippine jungle by myself.

Yep. That'll take the wind out of your sails.

It's my first official day alone.

I mean, there's no other way to put it.

It sucks.

Perfect sunblock.

I've faced hardships before,

and this is just another one.

Slather my whole freaking body with this stuff.

My dad passed away earlier this year.

I've asked him to be with me

and to watch over me on this challenge.

So this challenge means a lot to me,

to make it through the 21 days.

Holy smokes.

Is that what I think it is?

I think that's a banana tree.

Come on, baby.

There she is.

Come on, baby.

Tell me we got some bananas.

Seriously no bananas?

I refuse to believe that.

Is there any on the ground?

There's no bananas. I couldn't believe it.

I couldn't believe seeing that many banana trees

and no bananas.

That makes me wanna cry.

Really, really disheartening

'cause it is a bazillion and one degrees

and I thought that I was coming all the way out here

to score a bushel of bananas.

I'm gonna have to go start a fire

and boil some water quick.

At this point, I'm just dripping with sweat.

I know I gotta get hydrated.

I walked over to a little shady spot on the beach

and started making a fire.

I've made thousands of these.

I've practiced in the rain.

And for whatever reason, I mean...

I don't know if it's just so humid

that nothing wants to catch here.

- You've gotta be kidding me.

I'm really struggling to make this fire right now.

You know, I don't wanna give up.

It's really, really hot out, and I need to get this water going.

Dad, I could use a little help.

I asked for his help

and it started.

It was just too overwhelming for me.

Everything out here is, like, unforgiving and so, like...

Just, any good thing that happens to you

is, like, amazing.

Finally.

I'm actually happy that this little journey

broke me down as far as it did.

I was just beaten to a pulp, and...

...you know what? I'm still standing.

I'm still going.

Twenty-one days, man. It's happening.

Even boiling hot with floaties in it, it's still good.

I'm looking for bamboo.

Today, we're starting on that raft,

having only three days remaining

before we go out for merge day.

We've got a very, very small window to build and test that raft.

Should we do that, or should we go for more coconut?

I think the bamboo, 'cause the raft, to me,

is far more important than the coconuts.

Wanting and needing is what I'm looking at,

and I think that we need that raft.

We want that coconut.

- We can go get the raft... I'm glad to hear that.

...but we're still gonna go after the coconut.

I've been hydrated with my coconut water,

and unfortunately, my partner doesn't see the benefits of it.

And his loss, I would say.

Like, he believes just drinking water is enough.

It's not enough.

Timber.

Look at that.

We need to get a raft.

I would really love to have it all lashed together by tomorrow.

If we've gotta make any adjustments,

that would still give us plenty of time to make those adjustments.

- We just need to get our lengths cut... Mmm-hmm.

...then put the puzzle together.

Our plan is to build

a four-foot-by-four-foot floating bamboo platform

lashed together with paracord and vines.

This will be fitted on either side

with two seven-foot outriggers for balance.

Then we'll make a pair of paddles out of palm fronds.

We have to cut this in a way

where we leave most of the joints intact

so we can have air pockets to help us float.

Yeah, that is some thick stuff.

A good thickness and a good air cavity.

So, we'll tie these down and see how it floats.

- I'd say it's looking good. Yeah.

Feel good about where we're at.

Priorities this morning are

start working on my raft.

With the limited amount of energy I have...

...I'm just gonna try to chip away at it bit by bit

over the next few days.

I'm gonna have three on each side

and then two little crossbars.

I will add a covering to it to protect myself from the sun.

I'm not gonna be on top of the water paddling.

I'll just kind of be in the middle,

and I can just kind of kick my way over to the merge island.

And hopefully, that'll be enough

to carry my emaciated butt across this lake.

Morning, day nine.

The goals are finish that raft,

have it 100% lashed.

Takes a lot out of me.

This location, it's beautiful, but it's rough.

This morning, I just want to get

a couple more coconuts, man. Two or three.

Just gonna wait and see if he comes and help me out.

- What's up? What you got going on?

I just want some coconut water.

I know you want that coconut,

but we can't get to the coconuts until we finish plan A.

All of a sudden, he is standing over me,

hands on his hips, looking down at me.

Body language told me

that he was not liking what he saw,

and he was trying to correct that.

This ain't gonna take me long to finish this up.

I just gotta go down the center

and then use up whatever's left to come back with it.

I just want to get a couple more coconuts. That's all I want.

Can you give me five minutes before you ride my ass?

Just give me what I want, be done with it.

I'll never have to talk about coconuts again.

Stupid [bleep] coconuts.

I'm going to get these goddamn coconuts.

I'm tired of hearing about 'em.

It just don't [bleep] matter

as long as there's a goddamn coconut in that [bleep] tree.

Chev, let's go get these damn coconuts.

I'm tired of hearing about the damn coconuts.

I wanna get 'em done, so we're done with it.

I don't wanna do it with that energy. I don't.

Every day, you're on these coconuts.

My body can't do it.

Because the coconuts can do it for me.

- That's why. - Okay.

- We planned on going to get coconuts... - I said those coconuts

could be really good at some point.

That's what I said.

That's pressuring me to get off that raft

- and go get the coconuts. - No! I didn't pressure you to get off the [bleep] raft.

You know, at this point, I'm done.

I don't want a coconut anymore. Just leave it.

- No, I gave you my word, we're gonna get 'em. - No, it's fine.

- But I wanna stick with a [bleep] plan. - I don't need it.

I don't need it. I don't need the energy. I don't need it.

I don't need it. I don't need any of it. I'm good.

- Do the raft. Raft up. I'll be fine. this.

Dude, when you swim across that,

or paddle to that island by yourself,

that's not on me.

Dude, when you paddle to that island by yourself,

that's not on me.

I'm tired of the goddamn coconuts.

Anyone who comes with a [bleep] attitude...

I don't want a coconut with an attitude now.

Keep it to yourself.

I have never once said the raft was not priority and not important.

All I'm saying is we're gonna have to paddle it

and we're gonna need energy.

We work together, we get [bleep] done in a timely manner.

Look, I've been out here less than five minutes.

I've already got two, four... I've got six snails already.

Get me fed. Maybe I'll then have energy to go after the coconuts.

I've been doing everything I can

to try to work well with my partner, try to compromise,

but sometimes you just gotta address the elephant in the room.

And today, unfortunately, I did.

I was a jerk,

and I'm more than man enough to man up and own that.

Chev, you think we could talk for a minute?

First of all, I got us a meal. A nice, big, fat meal.

- Appreciate that. - That protein

is what's gonna get me on those coconuts.

I want those coconuts for you. I want them for us.

I do wanna apologize for the way that I approached you this morning.

I just need to get my energy up to be able to get 'em.

Okay. That's fair. That's fair.

Despite his little uprisings, he's a very good partner.

I'mma keep it real with him. That's the way it is.

Enjoy a little snail meal.

Bon appetit.

It's all part of working as a team.

You know, there's gotta be compromise,

and gotta be some sacrifice.

A great big meal of snails.

It's a win-win for both of us.

It's day ten, which means tomorrow is the merge.

Setting off into the unknown,

you know, it's a bit nerve-racking,

especially solo.

It would be a lot easier with a partner.

I have to tie each individual one,

whereas a partner could be working on one side,

I could work on the other side, and then, you know...

It's a lot of work for one person.

All I need to do

is just get me and my items to the island.

They're waterlogged. I don't care.

But I think that, if I just kind of take it slow and steady,

I should be able to make it there.

It's gonna be a long day tomorrow.

It's a big trek.

Nervous.

It is the morning of day 11,

which means merge day.

Today, both camps must travel

more than a half-mile across the open water

to an island in the middle of the lake,

where they will merge into a single tribe.

Gonna follow the coast

around that bend to this peninsula,

and hopefully I can just

push right across to this island with my new tribe.

I have no idea what's waiting for me on that other island.

There's a lot of unknowns with new people and a new location.

It's kind of scary.

Final drink on this beautiful island

that provided all this natural resource for us.

Yeah.

I just hope they're doing as well as us,

and when we meet up, then it can become a tribe

and the four of us can walk out together.

Grab your spear and hit the road.

Halfway to our goal.

All right.

I'm gonna get this show on the road.

Ready? Yep.

Let's roll out. Let's do it.

I'm, like, really excited

to meet whoever's on this island right now.

We've not gotten that far.

We're still making headway.

That's all that matters.

Originally, I planned on just, like,

walking this thing along the coast,

but there's so many downed trees

that I'm just kind of paddling my way.

But I think my bamboo raft is starting to become water logged.

I will say I'm pretty gassed.

Now straighten out on your side.

I've kind of given up.

Why are you giving up?

Just trying to stay focused.

Yeah, my raft is definitely sinking.

Like pushing a brick.

I don't know if I'll make it.

It's almost a submarine.

It's taken everything I've got to stay on course.

Legs are burning, arms are burning.

Ugh.

I cannot wait to be on land.

Oh, there we go.

Oh, my God.

I am absolutely smoked.

Oh, my God.

I'm hoping my new team got here okay.

Physically, I would say that this is the most gassed

that I've been this whole challenge.

I've spent everything I have in the tank,

and now I've gotta start over from scratch.

Land ho!

Oh, damn.

Let's say we get over here and rest.

Why? It's the same distance.

- Our distance... - Because I don't have it in me anymore.

We're close.

- Let's just push it through. I am...

I'm telling you, my body's just getting...

It's reaching its end.

Gotta go boil water.

I see people on a raft.

Hello!

I hear somebody.

I hear somebody yelling.

We're right there.

We got this.

Man, that is such a sigh of relief.

I'm not alone.

I don't know if they see me,

but just knowing that I have partners

in this challenge... I mean, that's huge.

Oh, we have touchdown, my friend.

I just spent five days by myself.

Now I have a tribe.

We can look after each other.

Hello!

Hello. How many are... One.

How about you? It sounds like there's two of you.

We got two. Indeed. You got two friends.

Whoo-hoo!

You got two brothers.

That's right. - Nice!

Hell, yeah.

Well, hello, sir. What is up, guys?

- How's it going? - Yeah. Good, man.

- How are you doing? Good to see you. Good, man. Good.

More guys on this trip.

Like, big old sausage fest out here in the Philippine jungle.

- Yes, sir. - I'm Tray.

But really, guys or girls, doesn't matter.

I'm just happy that my partners are here in front of me.

- All right. Well, I'm Chev. Chev?

- Yes, sir. Andrew.

- Andrew, nice to meet you. Tray.

Tray. Andrew. Nice to meet you.

So, I'm here on the road to redemption.

Hell, yeah, bro. That's two of us, man. We got this.

Yeah, all three of us are here for redemption.

Hey, man, we're all here and we're all getting it done.

That's all that matters.

We're about to knock out these 21 days, man.

- I did not come this far... - Ten days.

- We got ten days. - Ten days. Yeah, that's right.

- Ten days. We're over the hump, baby. - Ten days. It's only half.

- This is hump day. It's only half. It's only half.

Andrew seems like a great guy.

He's easy to talk to.

That says a lot about him.

- My partner tapped on me five days ago, so... - Oh!

I've just been kinda... - Been a long haul.

Yeah, man. I mean, today has been a butt kicker for me, man.

All right. - Like, I am, like, running on fumes right now.

Andrew is a tough son of a...

He did the same thing that we did by himself,

so I'm definitely excited to be his partner now.

It was also disappointing to hear that his partner tapped.

You know, four hands make light work,

but three's fine as well.

I wasn't sure, you know,

if you guys wanted to maybe camp up here,

or if you guys just wanted to harvest bamboo

and camp down by the beach.

- You know, I mean... We could take a look and see what it is.

These bugs are bugging right now.

- I don't wanna bug with them.

I definitely think, whatever bugs,

it's gonna be worse up here than it is down there, for sure.

Looks like just about any wood we're gonna have

- is gonna be weak... Mmm-hmm.

...and infested with termites. Mmm-hmm.

Right here, the ants and termites

are just horrendous.

They're crawling out of every piece of vegetation around us.

So that tells me where we were was not gonna work.

I was curious about that little beach down there.

Yeah, yeah. It's just right down here.

- We can... Yeah. Check it out.

We are now the triumvirate.

Tray and Chev, they both seem knowledgeable.

They both seem super motivated and driven.

And I'm not worried about them tapping out on me.

A lot more elevation gain and loss in this location.

Yeah, right.

Well, I like having a shady beach. Yeah.

We could very easily just build a raised bed.

I'll do a raised bed, call it a frickin' day and just go to bed.

Same thing in my first location.

There's a dire need to get shelter

and be safe.

Without a decent shelter,

you're exposed to anything that Mother Nature throws at you.

So, we're digging these post holes for a raised platform.

Whoa, [bleep].

What you got? Centipede.

Get him. Get him before he goes in.

I'm cutting... Chop the [bleep] out of it.

I chopped his head clean off, he's still going.

The Philippines is home to over 100 species

of ground dwelling scorpions and centipedes,

including the giant Vietnamese centipede,

which can grow up to ten inches in length

and uses its piercing jaws to deliver fast-acting venom

that can cause extreme pain, swelling and even death.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... Whoa!

Dead. Dead. Dead.

I do not wanna get bit by one of these damn things.

This thing will hurt like a son of a gun.

That's two. That fast.

That means there's more.

A centipede bite is not gonna be pleasant.

There's only two kinds of giant centipedes here.

One of them will kill you. One makes you wish you were dead.

The one that makes you wish you were dead is the what we had.

- What, what? Son of a bitch!

Something bit the helmet.

Is it a centipede?

I don't know what the [bleep] it was.

Shooting pain, though.

Something bit the helmet.

Is it a centipede? - I don't know what the hell it is.

Got you on the... On the...

A shooting pain, though.

What can we do?

I found a scorpion. That's what got you.

Boy, that'll make a guy shrivel up like a grubworm in a turtleneck.

It crawled onto his junk and stung him

right on the [bleep].

Oh, my God. That's gotta be the most painful thing I've ever heard of.

I don't see anything but a tad bit of redness.

Whoo-ee, buddy!

Well, I sure feel a lot better knowing

- none of the scorpions are deadly. Yeah.

- Feeling all right? The pain's not quite so bad.

- There's... I mean... Just breathe for a little bit.

Yeah, I mean, but you're not, like...

- You don't feel weird? - I'm not hallucinating or anything, so...

All right. Well, that's good.

It just shows you that there's things out here

that can really put you in pain.

Something this tiny can make you lay down and scream and cry.

So you just gotta respect the environment you're in.

Tray, take it easy.

Me and Chev will knock this out.

I am still here for redemption.

I don't know of any other survivalist out there

that can say that they took a scorpion sting to the private parts

and kept on going.

Well, guys, we are about out of light here.

Mmm-hmm. Well...

So, it does not look like we're gonna get

our raised platform built tonight.

Oh, my God, I'm telling you,

I'm about to pass the [bleep] out.

I don't mind sleeping under the stars, but, man,

- this beach is rough. Yeah, the beach sucks.

Last night was a rough one, huh?

The beach is nothing but sharp rocks.

So that's what we slept on all night.

Hopefully, with us each picking up a different task,

we can get back on top again.

Today, number one plan is to finish our raised bed.

Chev's out collecting resources.

He's in go mode.

I'm gonna come raid this jungle.

I'm looking for any solid pieces of wood.

Just trying to get ahead of that today

and gather as much of the hardwood that's on the ground.

As I move through here,

if I find anything I think is edible,

I'm gonna be fooling with it.

Oh!

I grew up on a yam farm in Jamaica.

Yep. There you are.

Yeah, it smells really good.

It's a big, wild yam.

How's it going, fellas?

Good, good. Looks good, man.

I got something I want to show you guys.

While I was looking for wood,

found out that we were gonna be eating potatoes,

what we call potatoes, lima-lima,

because I found this one.

Yo!

This is lots of sugar.

Chev came back with a wild yam.

Nice!

We need that just as much as we need this raised platform.

It's starting to, like, steam in the middle. I can hear it.

Heat's getting to it.

Nice.

I choose to roast it to keep all of the yam itself.

The skin is good if you roast it.

All right.

We got our first meal together, guys.

Brothers...

Cheers, cheers and cheers.

Lima-lima!

Mmm...

Oh, my God!

Tastes just like a big ol' baked potato.

Yeah. Big ol' baked potato.

The carbohydrates

- in one cup of cooked yam... - Mm-hmm.

...is equivalent to three slices of wheat bread.

I can already feel the energy coming back.

That first bite of that roasted yam,

just amazing.

And to actually get a big mouthful of anything,

was just what we needed for our energy

so that we can keep building that raised bed.

Well, now that I have some energy,

give me a chopper.

All we gotta do is just chop bamboo

and just layer this the whole way across.

That'll keep us off the ground tonight, at least, you know.

Coming along, man.

We're up off the ground,

we're not messing around.

Last piece...

right there.

Take a break, man.

Trying to think.

I mean, we should get

some sort of roof situation, probably sorted out.

I'd rather look for food.

I can live without shelter. I can't live without--

- I'm just thinking, like, if it starts raining... - I know.

- I'm thinking that too. - We got no fire and we're [bleep]!

So it'll be cold and no fire, you know.

I think it's important,

but to get a shelter, we have to be hydrated,

we have to be fed to do the work.

So, that's where my priority lines up.

Basically what it takes to get me to do these things.

At the end of the day,

we should have a solid shelter with a roof

that can protect us from the rain

and keep a fire going while it's raining.

Period.

The whole shelter situation

is why all of us have been taken out of challenges before.

So, I'm very surprised

that they are as, like, aloof about it as they are.

We're in a survival situation. - Mm-hmm.

And we need to focus on nutrition,

and that's what I'm gonna focus on.

The bed was a priority, but the bed is complete.

So my priority is to eat, sleep, wake up, and repeat.

I'm gonna find another lima-lima vine.

I know they're back here.

Right now, food is our priority.

Looks awful thin.

I am hoping for another nice, big, fat lima-lima.

Something I really don't know about these lima-limas,

these are only one per vine.

I might be totally wasting my time here,

but I sure don't seem to be getting anything at all.

I feel like I'm hitting a dead end.

Always keep an eye out.

I'm still gonna work this area because I feel like

there's probably more of the lima-limas here.

And if there are, I want to leave no stones unturned.

So I'm just going to keep looking in the general area.

Nothing over here.

Survival requires patience, belief, confidence.

Nope.

We've got to keep the energy going

and do things that brings us lots of food.

Like, you don't know what's going on,

you don't know what's around you

unless you're out there seeing it.

That's what foraging is about,

and that's what survival is about.

Nope, that's not it.

Oh, my goodness.

We'll have to figure something else out.

Right now, I'm just trying to get some feeder fish, some bait,

so that we can put it on a line.

I just got a handful.

Oh, there you go, man.

There's some bait anyway.

Look at that.

Pretty small, but...

I could catch a catfish.

I still kind of feel like we should build a roof,

but I'd rather just go with the grain in this situation,

than go against it.

I mean, I came out here to get redemption,

not only for myself,

but to prove to my dad that I could do it

and he always told me, "One day at a time.

Just keep going. One day at a time."

And that's great advice.

Oh!

Ohhh!

A good one.

I basically stripped the bait.

But...

Just want to get this done, you know,

for me and the man.

I'm not seeing anything over here.

Nope.

Don't see anything either.

Today, number one plan is to, if at all possible,

find some kind of a food source

'cause we really got to get that tank refueled.

Get one out?

Yeah.

Color looks right.

It's a big bulb.

It's something. Let me see it.

It's weird.

I don't think that's lima-lima.

It doesn't have the hairs around it for one.

Might be good.

Something.

I don't know what it is, but it looks like

it ought to be something edible.

So I started doing the edibility test.

I covered my wrist with it.

I had no reaction.

Well, she ain't huge, but she's not bad.

Better than going back empty-handed.

That is a fact.

Food is food.

This is mystery yam soup

that we are fixing to put on the boil here.

Hopefully it tastes as good as it looks.

Boy, it's boiling hot, right. Yeah.

Let me test out this new yam.

Whoa, what's up?

What happened?

Ooh, yeah. My throat is on fire.

It's like burning.

Yeah, it's not even like a hot sauce fire.

- It's like...

My throat is just-- It feels like

it's kind of trying to close.

So we'd better get medics out here.

[bleep] Can we get the medic here?

Oh...

Ooh, yeah. My throat is on fire.

It's like burning. Can we get the medic here?

My teammates... - This ain't good.

...take a bite of something that we believe is toxic.

Both of them were talking about having difficulty swallowing,

their mouths being on fire.

Are both of my partners about to be med tapped?

Oh...

We ate that root.

I don't know what the [bleep] it is,

but our [bleep] faces are on fire,

throats are swollen shut, tongue's swollen up.

I mean, I can feel it in all of my stomach.

Like swallowing a beehive.

Yeah, it's very sharp.

Not as bad as it was.

All right.

Vital signs are both stable.

So, we're drinking lots of water.

Just trying to flush it out of our system.

Whatever that root was, it was no good.

No bueno.

So much for dinner tonight.

How are you guys feeling this morning?

Certainly been better.

My mouth is still pretty sore.

You know, like, if you have a flu...

Mm-hmm.

And you have that--

Just that sick taste in your mouth.

Yeah. - That's what I have right now.

It's the first time I woke up feeling not myself,

not with the same level of strength that I usually wake up with.

But that's a part of the challenge, right.

Just got to keep hydrating and eating coconut.

I feel like crap.

But the only thing I need in this challenge at this point

is to cross that finish line.

We're gonna need to save some time and energy

to focus on that raft.

Our extraction is out in the middle of this lake.

And the raft that we've got

is something that we could utilize for the three of us.

So with a few modifications, priorities,

any repairs that may need to be done.

It's all going to be labor-intensive.

I will say, we don't have a roof yet.

So, what's more important?

Is it more important

to have a shelter if it really rains,

or have the energy to fix the raft and get to extraction?

What's more important?

Chopping all these bamboo down and splitting them and doing everything,

it's going to exert a lot of energy.

Is that really the best way to use the energy?

Is that worth it?

If the rain comes in and it doesn't stop,

we will be [bleep].

Is it important that we have a raft

that gets us to the extraction? Definitely.

But if for some odd reason, we all get hypothermia

and want to tap out on day 19,

the raft doesn't do us much good now, does it?

I'm confident it ain't gonna drop anywhere below 80 here.

Okay. So you're not worried about it.

I mean, at night with rain 100%...

Yeah, at night, in rain, that's obvious, but I'll just be up,

and move myself around until...

We have great canopy over our head with the trees

and it's hot all the time.

It's always going to be average 75 and higher, right.

So, I think we should focus on the raft

because that's what we need out of here.

And the worst case scenario,

we're going to stuck ourselves up underneath the bed.

I personally feel like rather than working on shelter,

we focus on that raft.

- I'm in 100% agreement. Awesome.

I still kind of feel like the third wheel here,

but with so few days left,

I think us being productive

and working as a team is very important.

One way or another,

we're paddling that thing into the middle of that lake.

How's she doing?

I think we're gonna definitely have to make it a little more buoyant.

Maybe even replace some of the vines.

Our first raft was pretty brutal.

I'm gonna start pulling some bamboo down the hill.

Incoming.

Nice.

This is what I've been conserving that energy for.

The plan is that we're going to add

two more outriggers to each side,

replacing some vines and some lashing.

Then underneath, we're gonna line

the bottom of the raft with this thinner bamboo

that we've got here in this location

creating more buoyancy

and will hopefully keep us up out of the water a little bit more.

These longer bamboo pieces are our outriggers.

They'll be reinforcing these ends.

And then we've got these shorter pieces,

which are going to reinforce the main raft itself.

You guys thinking three on each side?

Is that what the plan was?

That's what we were talking about, it'll work.

I think, before, we were kind of off on our separate tasks,

which kind of was creating a division between us.

I'm gonna rig it up with paracord. Okay.

But now, I think that we're all working on every task together,

which is unifying us,

and because of it, we're like a well-oiled machine.

All right, well, outriggers are done, right.

I think we're ready to start in on the bottom.

Spin this one this way just till here.

- This one? - Yeah.

Get that good, good bamboo.

That bambros' bamboo.

This stuff here is so...

- Bambros!

Kind of like my squad to have a name.

Bamboo, bros.

"Bambros."

I don't know. I feel like I could like meme that.

We've added quite a bit of bamboo to the bottom of this.

Yep.

This thing is like ridiculously buoyant now.

You guys want to try getting on like you normally would?

Whoo-hoo!

She gonna float?

That's what I'm talking about.

For extraction day,

if we can keep this momentum going

and keep working as a team, we're gonna nail it.

The bambros!

The bambros!

It is our final night out here.

Tomorrow we finally have extraction.

And I think we're all really excited to finally get out of here.

And we just have one last big push,

and we finally get to all have our redemption.

Dude, I don't like that sound.

Nope, not the greatest sound to hear.

So, it's the middle of the night.

There's like a storm rolling through right now,

and so it's kind of all hands on deck situation.

Burning a bunch of wood.

We're trying to keep the fire going to stay warm.

And hopefully this passes.

No!

Passing some time. Figured, uh,

maybe make a little outdoor shower.

I'm really confident now that if I'm ever anywhere with bamboo,

I can make all sorts of stuff.

I can make a raised platform bed.

I can make a big shelter, A frame.

I can make you a shower.

What you do is take a bamboo vessel,

drill a hole on the inside of it,

clog the bottom of this,

you could heat up the water.

I don't know, man.

Hang it up in a tree, then you got a hot shower.

See how much like Gilligan's Island we can live out here.

I'm filling up the shower.

When I want to take a shower, just... ...pull the plug.

That was a quick shower.

And that is how you stay clean in the jungle.

Great ingenuity, my friend.

You know... Whoop!

It is day 21,

which means extraction day!

Uh, it's not been a great morning, this morning.

Hopefully we get a break here,

and, um, get our day underway,

and finally be getting out of here.

Thank goodness it's now calmed down.

A little windy,

but I'm looking forward to heading home sweet home.

It has been relentless.

Rains cold, winds cold.

Over it.

We're packing up and ready

- to get the hell out of Dodge. - Mm-hmm.

There is definitely incentive to, like, get up and go

because it can change from beautiful skies

to thunderstorms in minutes.

There it is.

The final toast to redemption.

I am right there knocking on the door to redemption.

However, I've been dreading this moment

ever since merge day.

I know what the paddle took out of me on the way to this island.

Ready to get it done. Get it over with.

All right, let's take a look at these maps.

- So we're... - Right here.

We're gonna come off to here...

- And then... There.

Shoot up.

And it looks like we got a good weather window,

so I say we get moving.

Let's rock this [bleep]!

Whoo! - Let's do it!

One, two...

With storm clouds looming in the west,

Chev, Tray and Andrew must paddle their raft

two miles northeast to an open water rendezvous point

where they will meet their extraction vehicle.

It's a straight shot from here, boys.

Yep, we just need to keep pushing.

- That's it. - Before any rain comes in.

How are we feeling back there, Tray?

Oh, doing all right.

My leg's definitely feeling the burn.

But eyes still on the prize.

Going around this little cove,

we're still sheltered from the wind,

and then we get to the tip of it and it's just open water.

And you can tell that the wind is starting to pick up.

I'm feeling it right now. I'm totally smoked.

Kind of a pit in my stomach drops just like, "Oh, no,"

because I know how hard it is to paddle into this wind.

I feel like every stroke forward, is two back.

I'm gonna get on my knees and start digging into this

because we're not moving and we have to move.

Every paddle we take, if we stop, the wind pushes us back.

So right now, it's either we keep going

or risk floating backwards.

Leave everything we've got on the court.

We're getting there. We're getting there.

There ain't no quitting this, dawg!

I'm digging deep, trying to find that energy.

We're getting close.

I am this close to getting my W for redemption.

This close.

Here. You want to switch?

Come on.

Whoo.

Let's go, guys. Start digging deep.

Looks to me like-- I think, boys, a little bit more,

- and we're there. Yeah.

Like we're getting close.

Coming up on it.

I don't know how long we've been paddling,

but the extraction point seemed to be very close.

Come on, it's the final push. Let's push for it.

- Come on. - Yeah. That's right.

Dig in there.

Dig in there.

Argh!

Wait a minute.

- There's a plane coming! - Holy [bleep]!

It's a puddle jumper! No way!

Yeah!

A frickin' sea plane,

in the middle of this massive lake.

Goal achieved. I made it, baby.

That right there, my friends,

is how you close out 21 days!

- Whoo! Whoo! - That right there is how you do that.

I came out here,

did everything I wanted to do,

and it felt freaking amazing.

- Yeah! We made it! - Whoo!

I feel like I not only redeemed myself,

but I feel like I have proven

if you're persistent, you stay the course in life,

you keep doing the right things,

you keep training and developing yourself,

good things happen at the end of it.

Over the course of 21 days,

Chev lost ten pounds.

His primitive survival rating rises from 5.7 to 6.4.

Andrew, come on up.

- Come on up, buddy. - All right.

I couldn't be happier.

I just feel on top of the world right now.

- Yeah!

Whoo! Whoo!

That feeling of, "Oh, man, I can't believe I tapped,"

that I've had in my stomach for four years,

is finally lifted.

Here I am, redeemed.

Andrew lost a total of 20 pounds

and sees his PSR rise from 5.1 to 6.1.

We did it, Dad.

I love you.

Come on.

Yeah!

I think this definitely brings some closure.

Leaving the island behind

is the greatest, sweetest taste of victory

I could have ever possibly

imagined or hoped for.

Tray shed 24 pounds,

and increases his PSR from 6.1 to 6.5.

When you have a dream, don't ever, ever give up.

Redemption!

Whoo!
