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!
