Original subtitles

I'm so happy to see you.

Dad!

Holy cow.

Nine days.

Just can't believe you did it.

My cove here has absolutely no fish.

So I'm starting to make a boat.

Something's out there looking at me, crouch down.

Probably be out of me.

This.

is going to be an incredible challenge.

We're going to be dropped off in separate locations.

And one of us has to find the other.

There he goes!

I've got the weight of my brother.

Hopefully he'll be here soon.

Please come tomorrow.

I don't know where I'm going.

How long I'm going to be out here.

All I have is a compass bearing.

It's a needle in a haystack.

Can I even make it to base camp?

Dad!

No way.

Everything around you is telling you, you need to go home.

Please leave me alone!

If you don't work as a team, it's game over.

I can't hold the whole thing up still.

$500,000 would be life changing.

I know.

I just feel like life has sucked out of me.

He's coming.

He sees me.

Oh.

my gosh.

Holy crap.

Out here on the beach.

There's a duck.

Having a problem.

Gonna go get this thing.

I don't know what's wrong with it.

Or what was wrong with it.

It was acting like something was wrong with its wing or its leg.

So...

I dispatched it.

And... We'll probably eat it.

I'm gonna be able to have duck for dinner.

It's pretty amazing.

Back home.

I raise and butcher my own chickens.

Anatomy here isn't that far off.

Duck a la beach.

That's how we do it in a bush.

Spit roasted duck.

It's kinda... Kinda well done.

But I'd rather have it well done than like weirdly raw.

It's chewy.

It ain't bad.

No.

It's really good.

So now that Dave is here, it means everything.

It means we can get on with the plans that we have had and

wanted to execute based on our location since the very beginning.

Now that he is here, we can... we can move it and shake it.

You know?

It's like game on now.

We feel complete.

That's a protein packed lunch.

No kidding.

Nate doesn't have to suffer.

No.

It wasn't gonna make it through the rest of the day.

Not if the wolf found it first.

Something here was gonna eat it.

Very thankful.

Now we have duck fuel.

Well, I found my first slug in a long time.

Yeah, baby.

Sluggity sluggity slug.

They look dumb, but they're freaking Houdini's.

They're escape artists.

I wonder how much protein that is right there.

Probably a good amount.

That is the kind of situation I'm in right

now, is that I'm excited to eat one of these.

Just kidding.

I'm gonna cook this guy up.

That's some much needed protein.

Foraging as I go isn't quite giving me the calories I need.

I really want to meet up with Ted today because my food supply is running very low.

And I'm really concerned I'm just not gonna make it there and I'm gonna have to

camp out in the bush again tonight, which would suck.

You know, I kind of have a feeling that Ted's just absolutely crushing it out there.

Like he's just hauling in tons of fish.

He's got a smoker going.

God, I hope I get there soon.

I don't know how much more of this I can take.

My water tastes like fish.

Wonderful.

Brushing my teeth with fish water this morning.

You hear the wolf?

Pretty cool, eh?

I've decided that I have to change my shelter.

I want to make it a little bigger for when Jim gets here.

I'm gonna build a lean-to style.

Still no Jim yet today.

I hope he's doing all right.

And that he can find me when he gets here and he

doesn't go the wrong way and all that kind of stuff.

Ideally, I'd like to have something more than this puny wire up here.

When Jim gets here, it's gonna be a huge benefit for me.

Just a new sense of hope.

Jim is a larger-than-life kind of guy.

He's not afraid to get his hands dirty.

You know, it's inspirational.

Jim is a lot of the reason why we're on this adventure.

It's just really been a driving force getting me into some of the outdoor

activities that fueled my confidence in so many ways.

All right, well, I'm just gonna have to do for the time being.

It's a work in progress.

Jim!

Jim!

Jim!

Thought I had a crash.

Guess it wasn't Jim.

Unbelievable.

Starting to look like Jim isn't gonna make it again.

We better get here soon because I'm starting to lose my mind.

Just when I thought things were really, really

bad, they all of a sudden got way worse.

Um, my bearing hit these cliffs over here.

You can't see them, but they're sheer cliffs.

So, to get around the cliffs, I have to walk up what's behind me here.

Look at this.

It's basically a freaking mountain climb.

And it's borderline too dangerous to even try.

But, I mean, I gotta do it.

What the hell else am I supposed to do here?

So, this is gonna use a lot of my energy.

At least there's a lot of things to grab hold off along the way.

The 50 pound pack on makes it all the more fun.

At this point, if I fall, it wouldn't be good.

Probably wouldn't die, but, uh, I could get real hurt.

I'll tell you that right now.

You got this, Jim.

You got this.

I'm stuck.

Under this thing.

Okay, Jim.

Come on, buddy.

There we go.

Here we go, baby.

One, two...

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Holy.

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Hopefully that was the hardest part.

Oh, it doesn't look like it.

Ah!

I'm feeling like this is taking way too long and way too much energy.

And because of this, there's no way I'm gonna be able to get to Ted.

Which is freaking upsetting.

There it is.

Ow!

Hot, hot, hot.

Hot, hot, hot.

Once it goes, it goes, right?

There it is.

Look at that.

So, getting into camp, I realized my dad actually found a great spot.

And he's got a great shelter.

So, we're kind of covered in that regard.

We just gotta start getting some food.

We are going to put some set lines down.

You know, just some passive fishing.

Having two people, you can split the workload.

That'll be incredibly beneficial as far as energy conservation.

And just in a mental aspect, you'll have somebody else there.

The negatives of it, however, is that all those

resources are now split between two people.

And as time progresses, those resources...

I mean, they're literally dwindling twice as fast.

I'm gonna be using something about this size.

I got my degree in fisheries management.

I love fish.

I like thinking the way fish think.

I like catching fish.

I just like everything about fish.

When I get to a water body, I'm able to make

an educated guess what kind of fish live there.

As well as how to appropriately catch them.

Fishing line and hooks, I think, will be our best resource.

So here we go.

This is my actual little fishing rig here.

The rest, I'm gonna have a sinker tied off on this end.

Down here.

And some wire tied off on this end.

There she is.

That's the sinker.

And there you have it.

That is how you go fishing with as little effort as possible.

Alright, time to get baited up.

I gotta find some limpets.

I haven't really seen myself in clear weather in a couple of days.

I'm looking pretty darn greasy.

My hair's all over the place.

Boy oh boy.

I kinda look like an octopus head.

But, yeah.

One fish, at the end of the day, it'll fill our bellies up.

It'll make us feel good.

But half a fish a person a day is not a sustainable amount of fish by any means.

We need to figure out a way to really tap into it a little bit better.

And I think the key may be these set lines.

I think they're gonna really, really benefit us in the long term.

Alright, let's get some fish.

It's a good shot of us sitting, having deep thoughts.

Deep thoughts by Chris Wilkes.

With my brother on Vancouver Island.

Are you getting gray hair?

I haven't noticed that.

I have gray hair.

I've had gray hair for a year.

You know, I've never noticed that.

Well, I never let my beard grow out.

You got it in your beard, too?

It happens to you.

Yeah.

Me and my brother, we could easily go a year without seeing each other.

I am extremely excited to get to spend some

time together, but also get to test our skills.

Today, we plan on trying to do some fishing and start enjoying ourselves.

The water's so rough.

I mean, the waves are just pounding that point.

The only thing I think you can really do over there is fish with a pole.

You have to have a consistent food source.

And so far, all we really have is, like, seaweed to graze on out here.

Oh.

It's a pretty heavy action ride.

Let's see what we can get with that.

I try to practice a self-reliant lifestyle.

That means, you know, doing renovations to our house.

I try to do them myself.

And that means growing gardens, and I hunt during the wintertime.

And that's the meat that we consume all year long.

We're such a consumable economy in the United States, and we just buy, buy, buy.

People in the U.S.

just have so much stuff.

And at the end of the day, that stuff doesn't mean anything.

That's like the old saying, the most important thing on a tombstone is to dash.

You know, say I was born on this date, dash, and I died on this date.

What did you do in your life?

And that's kind of what this experience is about.

You know, it's part of that dash.

This place just isn't as inviting as it looks.

Count on that.

I want to work on my boat.

The boat is a work in progress.

My main concern at the moment is, is that I've made it too high.

So it could be a little tippy, but more so that my

tarp, a 12 by 12 tarp, it won't wrap around the front.

I mean, it's pretty close.

Yeah!

Yeah!

Jim's here!

Unbelievable.

I just called out to Ted and he answered back.

Oh my God.

Ted!

Yeah!

Whoa!

Hold on, dude.

I'm coming.

Oh my God.

I've actually finally completed this.

If anybody could do it, it's him though.

I'll tell you that.

One thing I'm very glad about is that I didn't have to do it.

I hope he has something for me to eat.

So I don't know how for him to eat.

Yeah!

I can't believe this.

Dude, I was beginning to think that the show was just going to be like whoever

doesn't die on the hike and then that's it.

Unbelievable.

Yeah!

You did it!

Dude, it was so hard.

Wow!

I climbed a mountain today.

Like, I'm talking about like this, dude.

Like, like looking down and we're like, oh!

Like, more than you could ever imagine.

It is a new era because Jim made it to camp.

The Baird brothers are together.

If we can split up some of these tasks and start just getting out there and figuring

this place out because if we can figure it out and get food

on our plates, we're going to start having a lot of fun.

Holy cow!

I can't believe how weak I am from that hike.

Are you dehydrated, do you think?

I'm hardly thirsty, yeah.

I'm pretty exhausted too.

I'm good to get a fish.

Yeah.

We both need some decent food.

Alright, I'll do the set lines.

You go ahead and get fishing.

Nope.

Damn.

All the bait's gone.

Wow, that stinks.

Well, we're just going to have to catch them, right?

Yeah.

Alright, I'm going to rig up my ride just like yours.

Being successful fishing out here is going to be

the difference between staying and going home.

We have some huckleberry bushes, we have some fungus.

There are things that you can't eat, but they

don't provide the energy like a fish does.

Oh, man.

I thought that was a bite.

Damn if you didn't get my bait.

Really?

Bastard.

Hey, look at this.

There's a sea lion.

Oh, yeah.

Come here, buddy.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Look at him, he's showing off.

Oh, oh.

You wonder where the hell that's coming from.

He's a sneaky one.

Yeah.

Whoa!

Sam!

No way!

Yes!

Oh, my gosh.

You got the touch.

That is just... Ooh!

That is just amazing.

Wow, Dad.

Holy crap.

That's awesome.

Isn't that beautiful?

I don't know if you can see the colors on this fish, but it's just...

Oh, the colors are vibrant.

Hey!

Little fella.

Nice little rockfish.

Oh, baby!

Oh, yeah!

Whoa!

Yes!

Holy cow, you almost got me with that one.

Oh, man.

How about that?

Holy cow, Dad.

That's a cool-looking fish.

Turn it up.

Fishing machine, eh?

Wow.

Good stuff.

All right.

There's a lot of meat on that fish.

That's actually a nice, meaty fish.

Yeah.

Wow, look at that.

Six-pound whopper.

Holy cow.

Behemoth.

Good stuff.

All right.

This is how we're gonna win.

What we're doing right here, this is how we're gonna win.

This is gonna carry us right through to the end.

I'm just absolutely freaking wiped, exhausted after that hike.

I think a death march would have been a better name for it.

Anyways, here we go.

Beautiful sight we have here, and I'm excited to start working on all these

cool-ass bushcrafty things we got on the go.

And I'm just hoping we have the calories to make it happen.

Food is our priority here.

Ted tells me he's caught five fish in one day, and then that's it.

For whatever reason, there's just really, it

doesn't seem to be any fish off the points here.

To get the calories we need to continue on,

like, this long-term, we think maybe no fish?

Well, let's try crabs next.

So, while Ted works on the boat, I'm starting to build a crab trap.

And basically, I'm just making a square.

Just sticks like that.

And I'm wiring them together in the corners.

So, I'm going to do, basically make a cube like this.

Is my first step.

I think in some ways, being alone in comparison with being two people is better

because there's only one mouth to feed instead of two.

But, you don't have anyone to enjoy it with.

It's not human nature to be alone.

Working into the night on this one.

I have the entrance, a good chunk of it done, and

pretty much the whole frame done of the crab trap.

But, this is where the crabs will crawl in this way.

And, they'll walk along this little ramp after the

bait we put in, and they'll fall into the trap.

And, they'll be, because they won't be able to get out.

I'm going to need to make two more of those X's.

And then I can get on with covering this thing.

So, hopefully between this and the boat, more

fishing, we'll be able to put some food on the table.

This multi-tool sure makes life a lot easier.

Wow, dude.

This is starting to look good.

That's two, man.

Ouch!

Ouch!

What happened?

I cut my hand pretty bad.

Oh, no.

That's why you don't carve towards yourself, kiddies.

Ooh, there's a lot of blood coming out of that.

That's pretty bad.

Looks like you cut it down to the nail.

Yeah, it's pretty deep, dude.

Unfortunately, Jim has cut himself while carving something.

It needs tending to.

These things, especially something on your index finger like

that, it's just magnified so much while you're out here.

Yeah.

You know, it's going to be sore and it has the potential to open up and, you know,

even any cut can become infected.

So, you know, not ideal to say the least.

Here comes the rain again.

Yep.

Things are starting to look up, even though the weather is miserable.

It's just one of those challenges that we have to put up with.

This fish just helps immensely.

Really looking forward to it.

Again, this is like the first big meal, the first

actual meal that I've had since I've been out here.

Great.

So, wow, we both actually are feeling so much better right now.

Got some food in our bellies and it'll give us a little bit of energy back.

I do want to build a solid wall on the back end of the shelter.

I've noticed that it's very windy out here and the end

that will be exposed to the wind, I want to be very strong.

And by building a stockade-style wall, it'll add strength to the entire structure.

Nice.

There we go.

There it is.

Number one.

Holy cow.

Number one.

There it is.

Nice.

All right.

Hang on.

I'm a little dizzy.

Don't be overexerting yourself, Dad.

I'm perfectly capable of sawing, too.

You've got to remember that.

Yep.

You know?

Yep.

If you kill yourself and we have to go home because of that, where have I had...

Seriously, this is a team thing.

No, I will not kill myself.

You said you're going to get the next one, right?

All right.

All right.

In a survival situation, you want to be able to

build something that is substantial, yet simple.

Especially for the long term, you don't want to

spend a whole lot of energy building something fancy.

I'm so glad this is happening.

One of the things that you really gain from an outdoor

experience is an appreciation for how easy our lives are.

Just because spending time in the wilderness makes

you realize how difficult things could be every day.

Yeah, that works for me.

We still want to plug up all the little holes, and then we're going to insulate it

with some hemlock boughs and get ready for the cold weather.

And there it is.

Not too bad, huh?

I'm wearing this one glove because I cut my hand.

Maybe I should take this off.

I look like a weirdo.

So anyways, I think I did a good job at taking care of

it as quickly as possible and getting back on the horse.

Okay, there we go.

Let's take a look at this crab trap that I finished off.

So there's the front of it.

And this here is the entrance where the crabs will walk in and get trapped.

I covered it with mash from a fishing net Ted

found, and on that net there was also some rope.

And so I tied some rope off at each corner so it can hang like this.

There's a bait bag right there, and that's where I can put bait.

Maybe we can use a smashed bivalve for crab bait.

The crabs can smell it and kind of see it, but they won't be able to eat all of it.

So if you make it harder for them to get at, well, then more crabs will come in and

try to get at the bait too, and you'll catch more.

So you don't want them to eat all your bait.

Nice.

Should be excellent crab bait.

I just put a few rocks under it to support it.

Once the tide comes in, it'll be completely underwater.

And then once we get the boat done, we'll be

able to go and set it further out from shore.

Imagine you had a bunch of big juicy crabs in that trap tomorrow night.

I think we'll have something in it.

Yeah.

It's exciting.

Some stuff's coming through and we're hoping that

we break into a new mode that includes getting food.

What are you brushing up against my ass to watch there?

You fat ass and sticking up the entire bed.

My ass is not that fat, Ted.

It's not fat, it's just walrus size.

It's just like the bone structure is so huge, you know?

Well, maybe we should get up, eh, Ted?

Yeah, I think so.

Ted and I, we fought like cats and dogs when we were kids.

Usually I was the dog and he was the cat.

He's really made an art form of annoying the **** out of me.

It's funny for a bit and then you want to, you know, punch him in the face.

But, you know, at the same time, we definitely are really good friends.

It's a big moment.

It's time to go down and check the crab trap.

I'm starving.

I used all my energy again.

Let's hope for good news there.

Jim's crab trap is revealing its head.

No!

Nothing.

That's devastating, Jim.

I'd say just leave it there.

I'd hang the bait bag if you can.

Yeah, but crabs eat like their mouths are under... They don't eat upside down.

They pull the **** down to their mouth.

Yeah, it's not happening, dude.

They want to come and see it.

They feed off the ground.

They just go over top of it and go...

If they can, if not, they grab it and pull it to themselves.

I would hang it from the middle.

Dude, I'm not ****ing hanging it for the last ****ing time, alright?

It's just how they all are, you know?

No, none of them are like that, dude.

That's exactly what crabs do.

They reach, pick, and put into their mouths.

No, they don't.

Yes, they do.

No, they don't.

Yeah, they do.

You're an idiot.

That's exactly what they do.

That's exactly what they do.

Got recharged a little from that duck.

But we see the ocean as the primary source of our food gathering.

And we see fishing as the number one resource.

And fishing will keep us here.

I think this might work.

Fishing is first on the agenda today.

I'm going to make Brooke something to use for a hand line to fish with out here.

Our strategy on fishing is pretty simple.

We're just going to fish off the bottom for whatever's out there.

It's rock fish in this area.

As long as the rock fishing is good fishing,

there is really no need to look anywhere else.

Looks like a hand line to me.

Another thing I want to do...

I want to make a... I want to make a batch of weights.

The whole idea is to keep our hooks.

We went with a 50 pound test line.

The hook above the weight.

And then we tie up a rock on 20 pound test.

And we loop the weight on the very bottom.

So the 50 pound is strong enough to straighten the hook.

And the 20 pound test breaks away if the rock gets snagged.

So...

We got our line with our single hook.

And that's it.

Love my new fishing pole.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

I'm going to cut some firewood.

Brooke's going to go fishing.

Division of Labor.

She's been waiting for help and I've been waiting for help.

And it's nice to have two people being able to

kind of break off and do two different things.

I think everybody gets the idea that Brooke is... She's one special person.

And I missed her so, so much.

But I've tried so hard not to... Not to go there.

Because it didn't help hiking.

I worried so much about her.

I love her completely.

Brooke's yelling.

Oh.

You all right, honey?

All I heard was screaming.

I caught a fish.

Oh.

You ran, didn't you?

I did.

All right, babe.

Make the asthmatic guy run.

I'm sorry.

That's all right.

Look at this fatty.

Oh, beauty.

Dinner, honey.

That is nice.

We got food.

All right, new plan.

You're fishing, aren't you?

More fish.

Fish on?

Yeah.

Good one?

Yeah.

Feels like a good one.

Come to mama.

Oh, yeah.

Got one.

Oh, my gosh.

I wish every day was like this.

If every day was like this, no one would ever quit.

We'd be here forever.

Woo-hoo!

So far, this breakaway rock system is kicking butt.

I'm loving it.

Wow.

Hit the jackpot.

Blow me away.

We had fantastic success fishing.

So thankful for that.

Isn't that a sight?

Fantastic.

Fantastic.

We got two beautiful fish.

On the cooker right now.

Cooking.

How's it going?

I am Dr. Fishlove.

Here to check your fish.

How is it?

It's salty.

Yay!

Oh, look at that.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay, let's do this together.

Okay, you ready?

Cheers, baby.

Oh, man, that's good.

I know all of you people out there are like,

you just cooked a smoked fish in your shelter.

Yeah, we did.

There's really no way around it.

Yup.

And when you're hungry, maybe you take a little more risk.

We really need to eat.

I feel so strong about where we're at.

We have what it takes to win this.

Holy cow.

There's a huge storm rolling and the wind's whipping.

It really only has to rise a few more inches before it gets into our shelter.

I've got a fish, baby.

Oh, a little herring or something.

Hey, move!

It's puking the guts out here.

I don't know how long my body can keep doing this.

I've got up and I look and there's a damn river of water.

Wow.

We are officially on the verge of being flooded.
