Narrator: FOR FOUR GENERATIONS,

THE KILCHER FAMILY
HAS CARVED A LIFE

OUT OF THE HARSH
ALASKAN WILDERNESS.

IN ORDER TO SURVIVE,

THEY MUST RELY ON MATERIALS
THEY HAVE ON HAND.

ABOVE ALL ELSE,
THEY MUST RELY ON EACH OTHER.

Eivin: RAISING A FAMILY
ON A HOMESTEAD,

THERE'S ALL KINDS OF THINGS
THAT COULD GO WRONG.

OH!

EMILY, ARE YOU OKAY? OH!

Eivin:
TO SURVIVE AND TO SUCCEED HERE,

IT REALLY COMES DOWN
TO HELPING EACH OTHER OUT.

Atz: KNOWING YOUR STRENGTHS.

[ GRUNTS ]

Otto: KNOWING YOUR WEAKNESSES,

DEPENDING AND RELYING
ON EACH OTHER.

THOSE ARE INVALUABLE SKILLS.

[ GRUNTS ]

Otto: IF YOU QUIT LOOKING OUT
FOR EACH OTHER

OH, GOD.
IN THIS HARSH ENVIRONMENT,

YOU AIN'T GONNA SURVIVE.

HEY!

[ CHEERING ]

HEY!
OW!

Narrator:
TEN MILES FROM THE HOMESTEAD
ON KACHEMAK BAY,

OTTO AND WIFE CHARLOTTE
NAVIGATE THE CONSTRUCTOR

TO PICK UP SON
EIVIN ON KILCHER BEACH.

TODAY'S MISSION,
RECOVER AN OLD FAMILY RELIC

BEFORE IT ENDS UP
IN THE SCRAP HEAP.

Eivin: HERE WE GO!

MY DAD IS DEFINITELY,
YOU KNOW, OLDER,

I CAN SEE IT,
AND, YOU KNOW,

WITH HIS HERNIA ESPECIALLY...

[ GROANS ]
THIS ISN'T GOING.

AH, HONEY, STOP, STOP.

I TRY TO TAKE THINGS
OFF OF HIS PLATE.

HOW LATE CAN YOU WORK?

I CAN KEEP GOING.

GOOD.

BUT THERE'S THINGS I WANT TO DO

AND THERE'S THINGS
EVE WANTS ME TO DO.

Eve: EIVIN!

Eivin: I'M TRYING TO CONSTANTLY
JUGGLE THOSE PRIORITIES.

CAN BE TOUGH BECAUSE
I DO FEEL SPREAD THIN.

Otto: I WOULD LIKE YOU TO DRIVE
FOR A LITTLE WHILE

SO I CAN GO DOWN
AND START THE PUMP.

WE'RE GOING TO GO GET
THE OLD HOUSE OFF THE NANUK.

IT'S THE HOUSE OFF
MY FIRST LANDING CRAFT

I USED DURING THE OIL SPILL.

THAT'S THE LANDING CRAFT THAT
MY WIFE AND I MET ON, 1989.

Charlotte:
WHEN I FIRST MET OTTO DURING
THE EXXON VALDEZ OIL SPILL,

I WAS RUNNING THE BIRD RESCUE
CENTER IN HOMER

AND HE WAS WORKING ON
THE CLEANUP EFFORT ON THE NANUK,

SO IT'S JUST REALLY
SENTIMENTAL TO ME.

Otto: HECK, CHARLOTTE AND I TOOK
OUR HONEYMOON ON THAT BOAT.

GOT SOME FOND MEMORIES
OF THAT HOUSE.

I'VE HAD THE OLD NANUK HOUSE

STORED ON MY FRIEND
WAYNE'S PROPERTY

FOR A GOOD LONG WHILE

AND HE WANTS IT OFF
HIS PROPERTY AT THIS TIME,

SO WE'RE GOING TO GO RESCUE IT

AND SEE IF WE CAN'T TURN IT
INTO A SAFETY SHACK.

IF THERE'S ANOTHER
EARTHQUAKE OR MUDSLIDE

AND THE BEACH ROAD GETS CLOSED

AND YOU'RE ON
THE WRONG SIDE OF IT,

IT'S A PLACE TO SPEND THE NIGHT
IF YOU HAVE TO.

A REFUGE.

I'M JUST NOT VERY TUNED-IN
TO THIS BOAT.

AND...

I'M NOT DOING A VERY
GOOD JOB STEERING IT,

THAT IS FOR SURE.

EVERY TIME I GO OUT
ON THE CONSTRUCTOR,

THERE'S A LOT OF STUFF THAT
I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO

AND I NEED TO GET A REFRESHER.

MAYBE HE'S SHOWN ME
THAT SAME THING A YEAR AGO

AND THEN THINKS I'M SUPPOSED
TO REMEMBER HOW TO DO IT.

AND I JUST DON'T RETAIN IT.

IT'S LIKE ALL THIS
WEIRD MECHANICAL STUFF

THAT ISN'T JUST INNATE TO ME.

I'VE GONE WAY OFF COURSE.
IT'S LIKE I'M --

I'M JUST NOT VERY GOOD AT --

AT KEEPING THIS THING
TOTALLY LINED UP.

Otto: HEY!
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

I KNOW!
I'M SCREWING IT UP!

I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BE
PAYING ATTENTION TO THIS.

IF THERE'S A PROBLEM, I EXPECT
HER TO OPEN THE DOOR AND SAY,

"HONEY, THERE'S A DAMN PROBLEM."

I'VE GOT MY OWN EXPECTATIONS
OF WHEN I'M GOING TO BE THERE.

COME ON.

I'M NOT REALLY
DEMANDING PERFECTION

AS MUCH AS
I'M DEMANDING ATTENTION.

[ BANGING ]

WHY WAS THE BOAT NOT STEERING
IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION?

THAT WAS MY FIRST CONCERN.

IT'S OKAY FOR YOU TO ASK ME,
WHAT'S GOING ON, CHARLOTTE.

OTTO,
I CAN'T MAKE IT GO!

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL.
DAMN!

OTTO'S BEING A REAL JERK
RIGHT NOW.

I'M NOT PAYING ATTENTION!

THAT'S WHY I
CALLED YOU IN HERE!

STEP ASIDE
SO I CAN GET TO THERE.

Otto: WE'RE GOING
THE WRONG DIRECTION,

AND OUT HERE ON THE WATER,
TIDE AND TIME ARE SYNONYMOUS.

IT'S OUR CLOCK.

LOOKING AWAY FROM THE HELM
FOR A FEW MINUTES

AND GOING OFF-COURSE
ALL ADDS UP,

AND IT'S THE FIRST TIME
I'M THINKING,

"WOW, WE MIGHT NOT MAKE IT."

Charlotte:
OTTO, I THOUGHT YOU HAD IT
IN YOUR HEAD THAT I'M UP HERE

AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.

IF THERE'S A PROBLEM,

I EXPECT YOU TO OPEN THE DOOR
AND HOLLER AT ME.

Charlotte: IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S
USUALLY BROUGHT ON BY

A REALLY TENSE SITUATION

WHERE HE FEELS LIKE
HE'S OUT THERE BY HIMSELF

HAVING TO DO EVERYTHING

IF HIS DECKHAND
IS KIND OF FAILING.

Narrator: OVER 40 MILES AWAY,
ATZ LEE IS FOCUSED ON RECOVERING

FROM HIS TRAUMATIC
NEAR-DEATH ACCIDENT,

BUT HE'S NOT ALONE IN HIS QUEST.

HE IS RELYING ON HELP
FROM HIS FATHER ATZ SR.

AND NEIGHBOR JOHN COILA

TO MAKE HIS NEW
HOMESTEAD A REALITY.

TODAY'S THE DAY,
WE'RE GOING TO MOVE 'ER.

Atz Lee:
ME AND MY DAD ARE MEETING UP
WITH JOHN COILA TODAY

TO MOVE A SAWMILL.

DOING PRETTY GOOD
AS FAR AS GETTING STUFF

GOING ON THE NEW HOME SITE.

WE'VE GOT A WALL TENT UP.

WE'VE GOT SPRING WATER
ESTABLISHED ON THE PROPERTY.

AND NOW IT'S JUST A MATTER
OF GETTING THE SAWMILL ONSITE

BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO BE
BUILDING A LOG CABIN

AND YOU WANT TO GET THAT CABIN
BUILT AS FAST AS YOU CAN.

WE'RE GOING TO LOWER THE MILL
DOWN AS FAR AS IT CAN GO,

DROP THE CENTER OF GRAVITY
ALL THE WAY.

Atz Lee: REHABILITATING
PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY

HAS TO BE PRIORITY NUMBER ONE.

PUSH MYSELF TOO HARD,
I CAN GET HURT.

DON'T PUSH MYSELF HARD ENOUGH,
I'LL GIVE UP,

SO IT'S A FINE LINE.

GENTLEMEN,
START YOUR MOTORS.

HERE WE GO.

Atz Lee: MOVING THIS SAWMILL

RIGHT NOW OVER TO
THE HOUSE SITE IS CRUCIAL.

I MEAN, THIS IS
THE LAST CHANCE TO DO IT.

ONCE THE BOTTOM GOES OUT
AND THERE'S NOTHING BUT MUDHOLES

AND BOGS AND STUFF,
THIS ISN'T GOING TO BE POSSIBLE.

SO IF THIS MILL
DOESN'T GET MOVED TODAY,

IT'S NEVER GOING TO GET MOVED,
AND IF IT DOESN'T GET MOVED,

MY HOMESTEAD'S
NOT GOING TO HAPPEN,

SO WE'VE GOT TO GET THIS MILL
TO THE HOUSE SITE NOW.

WOO-HOO! WOO!

WOO!

HEY! WOO!

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA,
WHOA, WHOA, WHOA! WHOA!

CUT IT ALREADY, DID IT?
YEAH.

JUMPED OFF TO LOOK
AT WHAT WAS GOING ON

AND ONE OF THE STRAPS
HAD BROKE ON THE SAWMILL WOOD,

SO IT WAS A GOOD THING
THAT WE STOPPED,

BECAUSE IF THAT STRAP,
BEING BROKEN,

THERE WAS A GOOD CHANCE
THAT SAWMILL'S GOING TO

SLIDE OFF THE BACK
AND GET DAMAGED,

AND IF THE SAWMILL GETS DAMAGED,
WE'VE GOT NOTHING AFTER THAT.

THE SAWMILL IS BASICALLY

WHAT'S GOING TO MAKE
THIS WHOLE HOMESTEAD HAPPEN.

OKAY, LET'S GRAB THIS BIG BLUE
LINE OUT OF THIS TOTE HERE.

OH, GOD.

Narrator: 35 MILES FROM
ATZ LEE'S NEW HOMESTEAD,

HIS WIFE JANE JOINS FORCES
WITH EVE ON KACHEMAK BAY

TO CATCH THE FIRST FISH
OF THE SPRING.

Eve: JANE AND I ARE
GOING FISHING TODAY

TO GET SOME FRESH FISH AND ALSO
JUST GET OFF THE HOMESTEAD,

TRY NOT TO WORRY
ABOUT THE EARTHQUAKE

OR KIDS OR HUSBANDS
AND JUST HAVE SOME GIRL FUN.

I'M FISHING!
MM.

EATING SALMON TONIGHT.

FISHING IS, LIKE,
HOW I FIT IN ON THE HOMESTEAD.

OH!
HE'S A NICE ONE!

OH, BOY!
THANK GOD.

I FISH MORE THAN ANYBODY ELSE.

[ GRUNTS ]

IT'S WHAT I LIKE TO DO AND I GET
OUT THERE AND I GET IT DONE.

WOO! WOO!

I'M A FISHERGIRL.

COME ON.

WHAT'S ATZ LEE UP TO?

HE'S OUT WITH HIS DAD
TURNING INTO HIS DAD.

YEAH, I THINK YOU
HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT,

IN SOME WAYS, THEY'LL END UP
LIKE THEIR FATHERS.

Jane: ATZ LEE IS BUSY
WITH HIS DAD

BUILDING HIS CABIN
OUT REMOTE IN THE WOODS

THAT I'M SO EXCITED ABOUT.

BUT, YOU KNOW, TO BE HONEST,
GOING FISHING,

I'M GOING TO FORGET ABOUT
ALL THAT STUFF FOR A WHOLE DAY.

BOY, WE'RE NOT
HAVING MUCH LUCK.

ARE WE JUST, LIKE, NOT AT
THE RIGHT DEPTH OR SOMETHING?

YEAH, LET'S JUST --
LET'S TRY DEEPER.

OKAY. JANE, ARE YOU READY?

YEAH.

I DON'T LIKE TO WAIT
MORE THAN AN HOUR IN EACH SPOT,

BECAUSE YOU'RE ON A TIME CRUNCH.

SO WE DECIDED TO SEE
WHAT EIVIN'S BOAT COULD HANDLE

AND TRY TO GET WHERE
THE FISHY SPOTS ARE,

AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO DEFINITELY

GO THE DISTANCE TODAY.

Eve: ALL RIGHT.
HERE WE GO.

Narrator: ACROSS THE BAY,
OTTO AND WIFE CHARLOTTE

RACE AGAINST THE CLOCK
TO PICK UP SON EIVIN

AND THE EXCAVATOR
BEFORE THE TIDE

GOES OUT ON KILCHER BEACH.

Eivin: ALL RIGHT.

WE'RE EXACTLY
ONE HOUR AWAY NOW.

OH, MY.
THAT'S A LONG TIME.

YEAH, IT'S A LONG TIME.

WE GOT A LITTLE
SCREWED-UP THERE.

NOT TIMING THIS RIGHT WOULD MEAN
DELAYING THIS TRIP A WHOLE DAY,

AND THIS TIME OF YEAR,
WE JUST CAN'T AFFORD THAT.

OKAY, I'M HERE.
WHERE ARE YOU?

IF WE MISS THIS TIDE,
IT'S GOING TO END UP

TAKING WAY TOO MUCH TIME
TO DO THIS PROJECT,

AND SO IT'S PRETTY IMPORTANT
THAT MY DAD IS ON TIME

SO THAT HE HITS THE TIDE RIGHT

AND WE CAN GET THIS PROJECT
DONE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

UH...

Narrator:
FINALLY BACK ON COURSE,

OTTO AND WIFE CHARLOTTE
ARE PICKING UP EIVIN

AND THE EXCAVATOR
ON KILCHER BEACH.

TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE
TO RETRIEVE THE NANUK PILOTHOUSE

BEFORE THE TIDE GOES OUT OR
THE WEATHER TURNS AGAINST THEM.

Otto: TODAY THE TARGET
WAS GETTING TO THE BEACH

AND I'VE GOT EIVIN WAITING
FOR ME AT THE OTHER END.

AND THEN GETTING
THE EXCAVATOR LOADED

AND GETTING BACK OFF THE BEACH
WITHOUT GETTING STUCK.

HI, EIVIN.
SORRY WE'RE LATE.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

SO, TIDE'S GOING OUT
AND EVERYTHING.

WE SHOULD PROBABLY
JUST GET LOADED AND GO.

OKAY.

Otto: I'M GOING TO
USE THE EXCAVATOR

BECAUSE IT'S THE BEST
PIECE OF EQUIPMENT

THAT I HAVE TO
PICK SOMETHING UP WITH.

THE TEST IS GOING TO BE
WHETHER THIS PIECE OF EQUIPMENT,

WHICH CAN PICK UP
AROUND 15,000 POUNDS,

WILL ACTUALLY
PICK UP THIS HOUSE,

WHICH I THINK MIGHT WEIGH
AROUND 10,000 POUNDS.

OKAY.

I THINK WE'RE GOOD TO GO.

Charlotte: I'M BEING THE
SCREWED-UP DECKHAND TODAY.

Eivin: IT'S A COMBINATION
OF A SCREWED-UP DECKHAND

AND A SCREWED-UP CAPTAIN.

[ LAUGHS ]

Otto: AT LEAST WE'VE GOT
THE EXCAVATOR ON.

Charlotte: YEP.

THIS HAS BEEN ONE OF THE MORE
STRESSFUL SHAKEDOWN CRUISES.

WELL, I WAS WEAVING BACK
AND FORTH WITH THE BOAT.

AT LEAST IT WASN'T
SOMETHING MECHANICAL.

IT WAS JUST YOU.

[ LAUGHS ]

Narrator: 35 MILES AWAY,
IN THE RAW ALASKAN WILDERNESS,

ATZ LEE, DAD ATZ SR.,
AND NEIGHBOR JOHN COILA

COME TOGETHER
TO OVERCOME AN OBSTACLE

THAT THREATENS THE MOVING
OF THE SAWMILL.

RIGHT AWAY, WE WOUND UP
LOSING A RATCHET STRAP.

IT WAS BETTER TO STOP.

WE'VE GOT ANOTHER ROPE OUT,
A VERY STRONG PIECE OF LINE,

AND USED THAT AND THE REMAINING
PORTIONS OF THE OLD,

BROKEN RATCHET STRAP TO REGAIN
TENSION IN THAT POSITION

AND WE SUCCESSFULLY
ACCOMPLISHED THAT.

YOU MIND IF I CHANGE
THE CHAIN OF COMMAND?

I KIND OF...

SENT ME OFF IN MY PTSD LAND,
SO I'M KIND OF...

WANT ME TO
TAKE THE WHEELER?

OKAY.
SHUTTING DOWN HERE.

OKAY.

Atz Lee:
AS WE'RE SEEING STRAPPING STUFF,
IT JUST TRIGGERED

SOMETHING INSIDE OF ME AND JUST
THAT FEELING OF HELPLESSNESS.

ONCE WE WERE GOING TO
GET GOING AGAIN,

I REALIZED THAT I WAS NO LONGER
CAPABLE OF DOING THE JOB

THAT I WAS SUPPOSED
TO BE DOING.

THANKS FOR SWAPPING OUT THERE.
IT JUST SENT ME OVER THE EDGE.

John: OKAY.

ANOTHER SHOT AT IT, GENTLEMEN.

YOU'VE GOT TO BE IN TOUCH
WITH WHATEVER'S GOING ON

IN THIS KIND OF A JOB.

SO IF YOU DON'T
FEEL UP TO A JOB,

YOU'D BEST SAY,
"I DON'T FEEL UP TO IT."

SO IT WAS GOOD ABOUT THAT
YOU SAY, "YOU KNOW WHAT?

TOO MUCH STUFF
COMING AT ME HERE."

Atz Lee: ONCE WE GOT
THE SAWMILL ROLLING AGAIN,

WE WERE ROLLING,
WE WERE MOVING,

BUT I WAS TRYING TO REMEMBER
WHAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DOING,

KEEPING AN EYE ON THE SAWMILL
AND THE ROPES AND STUFF,

SO THAT WAS KIND OF
WHERE MY FOCUS WAS AT.

AT THE SAME TIME,
I WAS JUST KIND OF

DRIVING THROUGH
THE WILDERNESS AIMLESSLY.

OKAY, GUYS.
LET'S STOP HERE.

YEAH, WE MADE IT.

WE MADE IT.
I THINK I MADE IT.

YOU KNOW, MY LITTLE
MENTAL EPISODES,

THEY JUST KIND OF LAST
AS LONG AS THEY LAST

AND THEN THEY'RE GONE.

YOU KNOW, JUST KIND OF
LIKE A BAD DREAM.

YOU JUST KIND OF WAKE UP,
YOU KNOW, AND THERE YOU ARE,

SO I WAS STARTING
TO FEEL BETTER

AND I WAS STARTING TO GO,
LIKE, "OKAY, YOU KNOW, THAT --

THE ACCIDENT'S THE ACCIDENT,
THE SAWMILL'S THE SAWMILL,

AND I NEED TO BE ABLE
TO SEPARATE THESE ISSUES OUT

IF I'M GOING TO BE ABLE TO DO
WHAT I NEED TO DO THIS SUMMER,"

SO YOU JUST GOT TO
KIND OF DIG DEEP

AND TRY TO SHAKE THROUGH THE FOG

SO I CAN KIND OF GET BACK
ON TASK WITH

THE REST OF THE PROJECT
THAT WE NEEDED TO FINISH.

IT'S RIGHT EXACTLY LINED UP
LIKE I'D LIKE TO SEE IT.

I THINK IT'S ALL VERY GOOD.

THERE'S A LOT OF WORK AHEAD,
BUT GETTING THE SAWMILL

ON THE PROPERTY
IS A HUGE STEP FORWARD,

BECAUSE NOW WE'RE GOING TO START
MAKING LUMBER WITH THIS SAWMILL.

GOOD JOB,
BY THE WAY, GENTLEMEN.

YEAH, GOOD JOB.
I'M GLAD WE GOT IT HERE.

YEAH.
WHAT A DEAL.

Narrator: OUT ON KACHEMAK BAY,
ATZ LEE'S COUSIN EIVIN,

HIS DAD OTTO,
AND WIFE CHARLOTTE

ARE APPROACHING
THE NANUK PILOTHOUSE.

Eivin: THERE IT IS, CHARLOTTE.
THERE'S YOUR HONEYMOON SHACK.

WE'RE COMING TO RESCUE IT.

Otto: I MET CHARLOTTE ON
THAT BOAT WITHIN THAT HOUSE,

AND I'M HOPING IT'S GOT
A LOT OF GOOD LIFE LEFT.

THERE'S THE OLD HOUSE.

YEAH.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Eivin: ♪ THE LOVE SHACK ♪

IT LOOKS LIKE IT NEEDS
A LITTLE TLC.

YEAH, IT LOOKS PRETTY, UH --
PRETTY WEATHERED.

YEAH.

Charlotte: THE NANUK HOUSE
HAS BEEN THROUGH A LOT

SITTING THERE ON THE BEACH
FOR 12 YEARS.

IT REALLY LOOKS LIKE A MESS.

BUT I DO FEEL LIKE WE'RE
GOING TO BE ABLE TO RESTORE IT.

I THINK IT'S GOING TO
BE CHALLENGING

BUT I'M EXCITED ABOUT IT.

Otto: CHARLOTTE, I'M --
CAN YOU STAY UP ON THE HOUSE

AND KEEP THE BOAT
GOING STRAIGHT?

YEP.

YEAH, GO AHEAD AND GET OFF
AND START GOING UP THERE.

Eivin:
I THINK THAT IT'S
GOING TO GO PRETTY WELL.

JUST PICK UP THIS
ONE OLD BOATHOUSE

AND SET IT ON THE CONSTRUCTOR
AND GET OUT OF THERE.

IT SHOULD BE A QUICK TRIP.

Otto: WELL, I'M THINKING --
YOU GET WHAT I'M THINKING,

RIGHT, A TRIANGLE OFF
EACH CORNER?

YEAH.

IT'LL EITHER
COME UNDER OR AROUND.

YEAH.
I THINK IT'LL WORK REALLY WELL.

YEAH.
IF IT'LL PICK IT.

Eivin:
THE NANUK HOUSE HAS A TRIPOD
THAT SITS ON TOP OF IT,

AND THAT USED TO BE WHERE
THE RADAR EQUIPMENT WAS

AND THE RADIO ANTENNAS,
AND THE IDEA IS THAT

WE CAN PROBABLY JUST TAKE CHAINS
FROM THE BUCKET OF THE EXCAVATOR

AND TIE 'EM UP TO THE RIGGING
AND JUST PICK THE HOUSE UP

BY THAT TRIPOD
SITTING ON TOP OF IT

AND THEN JUST SWING AROUND
AND DROP IT ON THE DECK

OF THE --
OF THE CONSTRUCTOR.

LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS!

IT'S TOO HEAVY, MAN.

Otto: PILOTHOUSE WEIGHS MORE
THAN I THOUGHT IT WEIGHED.

I THOUGHT IT WAS WEIGHING IN
AROUND 10,000 POUNDS

AND I'M FAIRLY SURE
THIS EXCAVATOR CAN PICK IT UP.

THAT'S AMAZING.

THAT'S HEAVIER
THAN I THOUGHT IT WAS.

I'VE NEVER RUN INTO ANYTHING

THAT THIS MACHINE
CAN'T PICK UP YET.

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?

EIVIN'S GOT HER
CRANKED UP ALL THE WAY,

HE'S GOT THE HYDRAULICS
PULLED UP,

AND WE CANNOT PICK THIS
HOUSE WITH THIS MACHINE.

WE'RE SCREWED.

MAYBE WE CAN'T TAKE IT AWAY.

SON OF A BITCH.

Narrator: OVER TEN MILES
FROM THE HOMESTEAD,

OTTO, CHARLOTTE,
AND EIVIN STRUGGLE TO RESCUE

THE NANUK PILOTHOUSE.

IF THEY CANNOT SECURE IT

AND GET IT OFF THE BEACH
BEFORE THE TIDE GOES OUT,

THEY'LL BE FORCED
TO ABANDON THE RESCUE.

Otto: OKAY.
COME DOWN HERE AND TAKE A LOOK.

IF WE DROVE UP TO IT
LIKE THIS...

YEAH.

AND HAD TWO CHAINS
GOING UP TO THERE...

UH-HUH.
WHERE IT WOULD PICK,

AND THEN THE OTHER ONE WOULD BE
OVER THE OTHER SIDE PICKING UP.

UH-HUH.
CAN WE TRY IT?

YEAH.
WE'VE GOT NOT MUCH TO LOSE.

YOU WANT TO GO UP
AND UNDER THE RIGGING?

YEAH.

Otto:
WE'VE GOT ABOUT 20 MINUTES.
THE TIDE'S GOING OUT.

I'VE GOT TO MAKE
SOME FAST DECISIONS

BECAUSE I CAN'T LEAVE
THE BOAT WHERE IT IS.

IF THE WEATHER COMES UP
AND A STORM COMES IN

WITH THE NEXT TIDE,
WE COULD LOSE THE BOAT.

SO, EIVIN,
WE'VE GOT TO GO

PLUMB DOWN HERE
TO THE BOTTOM, HUH?

I FEEL LIKE WE CAN
PUT THE BOOM UP

OVER THE TOP OF THE RIGGING.

THAT PART OF THE BOOM IS VERY,
VERY STRONG.

WE COULD PROBABLY LIFT
20,000 POUNDS

WITH THAT RIGHT THERE.

YEAH, THAT'LL WORK, EIVIN.
NOW WHAT?

WELL, AND THEN
I'M THINKING THIS SIDE HERE

WILL PROBABLY JUST
HOOK RIGHT TO A TOOTH.

NOW ALL THE BUCKET
HAS TO PICK UP

IS 5,000 POUNDS,
HALF THE HOUSE.

SO IF THE BUCKET CAN
PICK UP HALF THE HOUSE,

THE BOOM CAN PICK UP
THE OTHER HALF.

Eivin: OKAY.

NOW WE'RE PICKING UP
THE BOATHOUSE

IN A MUCH STRONGER PLACE
WITH A LOT MORE LEVERAGE,

SO IT'S A LITTLE BIT
MORE COMPLICATED,

BUT I THINK THAT IT COULD WORK.

BOOM UP, STICK UP.

NO, STICK UP.

WE'RE UP.

HEY, THAT'S NOT BAD!

Charlotte:
IT WAS VERY COOL TO SEE
THAT THE HOUSE LIFTED UP,

BUT YOU REALIZED HOW MUCH
WEIGHT THERE WAS THERE

AND HOW PRECARIOUS IT WAS
AND THE IDEA THAT THAT

NOW HAD TO COME DOWN
ONTO THE CONSTRUCTOR

WAS JUST FRIGHTENING.

Narrator: MEANWHILE,
SEVEN MILES OUT ON KACHEMAK BAY,

EIVIN'S WIFE EVE,
TOGETHER WITH JANE,

LOOK TO CATCH SOME FRESH FISH
FOR THE HOMESTEAD.

Jane: GOING DEEP.

WELL, THE BIRDS ARE HERE,
SO THEY KNOW SOMETHING.

Eve: ARE THOSE SOME
OTTERS OVER THERE?

OTTERS ARE A REALLY GOOD SIGN
BECAUSE THEY EAT SALMON.

WELL, YEAH, LOOKIT.
THERE'S A FEW OTTERS OUT HERE.

OH. WE'VE GOT -- OH, WOW!
THIS IS GOING TO BE GOOD!

OH!
WHAT WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR.

[ LAUGHS ]

WHAT DID WE GET?

I'VE GOT A COD THAT WE CAN KEEP.
IT'S A SMALL ONE.

HERE HE IS.
SWEET!

WE'RE STILL IN BUSINESS.
I LIKE COD.

OKAY.
AWESOME.

SWEET!

WELL, THEY'RE OUT THERE.
THEY'RE OUT THERE.

WE JUST NEED A BIGGER FISH.

I CAUGHT A SMALLER FISH,

BUT THERE ARE
BIG ONES OUT THERE,

AND, YOU KNOW, A HEALTHY,

NICE KING SALMON,
THAT'S WHY WE'RE OUT THERE.

WE WANT ONE OF THOSE BAD BOYS.

FISH ON.

THIS IS FIGHTING BETTER
THAN ANY FISH TODAY.

IT'S A BIG ONE, HUH?

OKAY. I'VE GOT THE NET.

IT'S A NICE KING.
OKAY.

Jane: GOT IT IN!
GET IT! YES.

OH! OH!
WE GOT IT.

OH, MY GOD!

YEAH! LOOK AT THAT THING!

THERE IS A KING SALMON.

YAY! JANE!
OH, RIGHT ON.

TEAMWORK MAKES
THE DREAM WORK.

YEAH! WOO! WOW!

Jane: I'M JUST
HAPPY WE'RE CATCHING.

WE'RE DEFINITELY GOING HOME
WITH FISH FOR DINNER.

AND, LIKE, THE BEST FISH
FOR DINNER, KING SALMON.

MAYBE, UM,

WE'LL JUST TRY ONE MORE SPOT
ON THE WAY HOME?

YEAH, THERE'S DEFINITELY
LIKE A NICE TROLLING SPOT

THAT I LIKE CLOSER TO HOME.

COOL.

[ ENGINE REVVING ]

[ ENGINE STOPS ]

GOD.
THE ENGINE JUST DIED.

WELL, HERE,
LET'S TRY TO RESTART IT.

[ ENGINE CRANKING ]

[ ENGINE CRANKING ]

NOTHING.

[ ENGINE CRANKING ]

[ ENGINE CRANKING ]

IT IS NOT STARTING, JANE.

Jane: I DON'T KNOW MOTORS.

EVE DOESN'T KNOW MOTORS.

I COULD LOOK AT A MOTOR
ALL DAY LONG

AND I PROBABLY CAN'T
FIGURE THAT THING OUT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG
WITH YOUR MOTOR,

BUT I KNOW IT'S NOT
GOING TO GET US HOME.

WELL, NOBODY WANTS TO BE
STUCK ON A BOAT

IN ALASKA IN OPEN WATER,

JUST 'CAUSE THE WEATHER
CAN CHANGE ON YOU.

IT'S NOT A GOOD
SITUATION AT ALL.

WELL, I KNOW OTTO AND EIVIN
ARE TOGETHER TODAY

ON THE CONSTRUCTOR,

SO WE SHOULD TRY
RADIOING THEM FIRST.

IT IS A VERY SMALL BOAT.

IT DOESN'T HANDLE IN ROUGH
WEATHER VERY WELL AT ALL.

NOW THAT I HAVE A LITTLE BABY
AND THE TWO-YEAR-OLD

THAT I NEED TO GET BACK TO,
THE POSSIBILITY OF GETTING

STUCK OUT THERE
WITH A BROKEN ENGINE,

IT'S TERRIFYING TO ME.

CONSTRUCTOR,
THIS IS EVE AND JANE.

WE ARE DEAD IN THE WATER.

OTTO, EIVIN,
DO YOU COPY?

I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF THEY'RE
GOING TO BE NEAR THE RADIO.

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

THIS CORNER PULLS UP.

I JUST PUT
A LITTLE TENSION ON IT,

AND BEFORE THE BUILDING
EVEN SHIFTED,

THIS CORNER CAME UP.

CONSTRUCTOR, THIS IS EVE.
DO YOU COPY?

OTTO, EIVIN, DO YOU COPY?

NOTHING.

Jane: WE'RE PROBABLY
SIX MILES FROM HOME.

WE DO HAVE FLARES AND A RADIO,

SO WE'RE HOPING BETWEEN
ONE OF THE TWO,

SOMEBODY'LL FIND US.

CONSTRUCTOR,
THIS IS EVE AND JANE.

DO YOU COPY?

Narrator:
ON THE BEACH, JUST ON
THE OTHER SIDE OF KACHEMAK BAY,

UNABLE TO HEAR THE DISTRESS CALL
FROM THE FISHING BOAT...

OTTO, EIVIN,
DO YOU COPY?

...OTTO AND SON EIVIN
WORK TOGETHER

ON THE MOST DANGEROUS PART
OF THEIR RESCUE MISSION.

Eivin: PICKING UP THE BOATHOUSE
WAS DEFINITELY HALF THE BATTLE,

BUT NOW WE ARE TRYING TO
MANEUVER THE WHOLE MACHINE,

EXCAVATOR, AND THE BOATHOUSE

DOWN A VERY STEEP BANK,
GET EVERYTHING TURNED AROUND

AND LOADED PERFECTLY
STRAIGHT ON THE BOAT.

YOU'RE KIND OF
ON A HUMP OVER HERE.

YOU'RE ABOUT TO
GO DOWN VERY CAREFULLY.

COME BACK VERY CAREFULLY.

YOU'RE DOING REAL GOOD.

OKAY.

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TROUBLE
GOING UP THE RAMP.

Eivin: AT THIS POINT,
I'M MORE WORRIED ABOUT

ONE OF THESE CHAINS SNAPPING.

IT'S A TON OF WEIGHT.

I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH
THIS THING WEIGHS,

BUT WHATEVER IT IS, IT'S A LOT
MORE THAN WE EXPECTED IT TO BE.

Otto: YOU'RE ABOUT TO
GO OVER THE EDGE.

BOY, YOU'RE ON YOUR TIPPY-TOES.

OH! KAY.

THAT WAY A LITTLE.

STRAIGHT BACK.

WHOA!

FANTASTIC.

THAT'S FRICKING AMAZING
WE'VE GOT IT AT ALL.

Eivin: I KNOW.

Otto:
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET OFF
THIS BEACH AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.

WE'VE GOT NOT A MOMENT TO SPARE.

WE'VE GOT THE HOUSE
ON THE CONSTRUCTOR.

AND NOW WE'RE ON
TO THE NEXT MISSION --

GET THE HECK OFF THE BEACH NOW.

LET'S GO, LET'S GO!

THE BOAT'S GOING DRY!

Otto:
NOW WE'RE TAKING THE OLD NANUK
HOUSE HOME TO LIVE AGAIN.

Narrator:
DEEP IN THE ALASKAN WILDERNESS,
ATZ LEE, HIS FATHER ATZ SR.,

AND NEIGHBOR JOHN COILA

HAVE SUCCESSFULLY
MOVED THE SAWMILL

TO THE NEW HOME SITE.

NOW THAT WE HAVE
THE MILL ALL SET UP

AND REALLY PRETTY MUCH READY

TO START CRANKING OUT
SOME MORE BOARDS,

THE THING THAT WOULD
BENEFIT YOU GUYS THE MOST

THROUGHOUT THE YEAR,
RAIN, SNOW,

EVERYTHING ELSE, IS A SHELTER
AND A ROOF KIND OF OVER YOU.

UH-HUH.
DOESN'T HAVE TO BE

A HECK OF A LOT,
JUST SOMETHING TO

KEEP YOU PROTECTED
FROM THE WEATHER.

AWESOME,
AND THEN WE WON'T HAVE TO

WORRY ABOUT RAIN
AND SUN AND...

AND SNOW AND ALL THE STUFF THAT
MAKES IT MISERABLE FOR MILLING.

YOU THINK ABOUT HOW MANY DAYS

AND WEEKS I'M GOING TO BE
RUNNING THAT SAWMILL,

TO TAKE THE TIME TO BUILD
SOME KIND OF STRUCTURE

THAT WILL KEEP ME
OUT OF THE WIND

AND THE RAIN AND THE SUN,
IT'S GOING TO BE WORTH IT.

Atz:
IF YOU BUILD A FREE STRUCTURE
ABOVE GROUND,

A WIND COULD'VE JUST
TAKEN THAT THING

JUST LIKE AN AIRPLANE
AND JUST TOSSED IT OVER,

SO HE DECIDED TO USE
AN OLD CHAIN,

USE THE CHAIN SAW,
CUT THROUGH THE FROST.

HE CAME ALONG WITH
A POST HOLE DIGGER

AND WENT DOWN A COUPLE OF FEET.

THERE'S NO WIND GOING TO
BLOW THAT OUT OF THERE.

NICE.

THERE WE GO.

John: OKAY.

NOW, LET'S LOOK AT HOW TALL
WE MIGHT WANT 'EM TO BE.

ONCE WE GOT THE HOLES
ALL DUG OUT,

THE NEXT STEP
IS TO GO GET THE POLES.

WE NEED SIX UPRIGHT POLES

AND THEN WE NEED THREE
PRETTY LONG 20-FOOT POLES

AND WE NEEDED A COUPLE
OF CROSS POLES,

SO I'M THINKING, "THIS IS A GOOD
STACK OF POLES WE NEED HERE."

I'LL FIND SOME GOOD ONES
THAT AREN'T TOO HEAVY

TO LIFT UP BUT BIG ENOUGH TO
SUPPORT WHAT WE'RE DOING.

Atz:
JOHN AND I STAYED BACK TO MILL
SOME BOARDS FOR THE ROOF.

[ ENGINE STARTS ]

AND ATZ WENT OFF
TO CUT SOME POLES.

HE KNEW THE LENGTHS
AND THE DIAMETER

OF THE POLES
HE WAS LOOKING FOR

AND JOHN AND I
TALKED IT OVER AND DECIDED,

"EH, LET HIM DO IT ON HIS OWN,

KIND OF TRY HIS WINGS
OUT THERE BY HIMSELF,"

AND IF HE NEEDS HELP,
HE'LL COME GET IT.

[ SIGHS ]

OKAY, LET'S SEE
WHAT WE'VE GOT HERE.

[ GRUNTS ]

DEFINITELY WOULD'VE BEEN EASIER
LOOKING FOR POLES

WITH THREE PEOPLE,
BUT, HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT?

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE HERE
ALL THE TIME,

SO I'VE GOT TO BE ABLE TO
DO STUFF ON MY OWN

AND IT'S ALL PHYSICAL THERAPY
IN THE END.

COME ON, LITTLE BUDDY.

LET'S FELL SOME TREES.

LET'S START WITH THIS ONE.

BODY'S HANGING IN THERE.

IT'S JUST GRAB A CHAIN SAW
AND YOU HEAD OUT,

"OKAY, I'M GOING TO CUT
SOME TREES DOWN,"

AND YOU JUST REALIZE, LIKE,

"MAN, I'M STUMBLING
OVER MY FEET."

HOLD ON. UH...

HAVING A HARD TIME,
JUST EXHAUSTED,

STAMINA'S NOT THERE,
AND THERE'S MOMENTS

OF FRUSTRATION FOR SURE,
MOMENTS OF PAIN,

BUT, YOU KNOW,
I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO

BESIDES JUST DEAL WITH IT.

YOU'VE GOT TO JUST
KEEP PUSHING FORWARD

AND COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS.

THAT'LL WORK.

THAT'LL WORK.

I TRY NOT TO THINK ABOUT
THE FACT THAT I'VE GOT

THIS MASSIVE TASK
AND THE FACT THAT

JANE'S NOT NECESSARILY
GOING TO WANT TO MOVE OUT HERE,

BUT THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT
THE POLE BARN STRUCTURE

THAT JUST REALLY
MAKES IT FEEL LIKE

WE'RE IN HIGH PRODUCTION NOW.

WE'RE HERE.
IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.

Narrator: 42 MILES
FROM THE NEW HOMESTEAD,

IN THE MIDDLE OF KACHEMAK BAY,

ATZ LEE'S WIFE JANE,
ALONG WITH EVE,

ARE STILL STRANDED
ON THEIR BOAT.

CONSTRUCTOR,
THIS IS EVE AND JANE.

DO YOU COPY?

Jane: EVE'S TRYING OTTO
AND EIVIN ON THE RADIO

AND THEY'RE NOT PICKING UP.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY ARE.

THEY'RE OUT ON
THE WATER SOMEWHERE,

BUT THEY'RE NOT PICKING UP.

OTTO, EIVIN,
DO YOU COPY?

OH, IT'S CHARLOTTE.

HEY, CHARLOTTE.
WE ARE HAPPY TO HEAR YOUR VOICE.

EVE, IS THAT YOU?

YEAH, WE ARE BROKEN DOWN HERE

AND NOT SURE WHAT TO DO.

HANG ON JUST A MINUTE,
LET ME GO YELL FOR EIVIN.

EIVIN!
WHAT?

I'VE GOT EVE
ON THE RADIO HERE.

IT SOUNDS LIKE HER BOAT'S
BROKEN DOWN OR SOMETHING.

COME ON IN AND TALK TO HER.

Eivin:
I'D KNOWN THAT EVE AND JANE
WENT FISHING TODAY,

AND FROM THE WAY
CHARLOTTE TOLD ME

THAT EVE WAS ON THE RADIO,

I DEFINITELY KNEW
THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG

AND I KIND OF STARTED
THINKING THE WORST.

WHERE -- WHERE ARE YOU
RIGHT NOW?

Eve: WE ARE ABOUT FIVE MILES

BETWEEN GLACIER SPIT
AND THE HOMESTEAD.

WE'LL SHOOT A FLARE OFF
SO HE CAN SEE IT.

YEP. WE'LL SHOOT A FLARE OFF
SO YOU GUYS CAN SEE US.

GIVE US ONE MINUTE HERE
SO WE GET OUT ON THE BOW

AND LOOKING AROUND
BEFORE YOU SHOOT THAT FLARE.

MY DAD WILL TELL YOU WHEN.

ROGER, COPY THAT.

Otto: SO EIVIN'S OUT UP ON FRONT
OF THE BOAT WITH BINOCULARS.

HE'S GOING TO LOOK AROUND.

COULD THAT BE IT?

OKAY, YOU CAN SHOOT
ONE OFF ANY OLD TIME.

Eve: HOPE YOU GUYS SEE IT.

Otto: OKAY, WE'VE GOT ALL KIND
OF EYEBALLS LOOKING OUT NOW.

GOSH, IT'S HARD TO SEE.

YEAH.

IT'S AMAZING HOW HARD IT IS TO
SPOT A BOAT OUT IN THIS WATER.

EVE SET OFF A FLARE
AND WE COULDN'T SEE IT.

THE WAY THE SKY WAS AND --
AND DAYLIGHT,

TELL YOU WHAT, DAMN GOOD THING
THEIR BOAT WASN'T SINKING,

'CAUSE THE FLARE WAS JUST
BASICALLY INVISIBLE.

Charlotte: CAN YOU
SEE ANYTHING, EIVIN?

Eivin: I DON'T SEE ANYTHING YET.

Otto: STILL CAN'T SEE YA.

Jane: IT'S SCARY
AND IT'S INTIMIDATING

AND NO MATTER WHAT,
IF THE WEATHER CHANGES,

THAT COULD MAKE IT DANGEROUS.

WE'VE GOT ALL EYES ON DECK.

Eivin: THERE'S DEFINITELY
THE POSSIBILITY OF THEM

HEADING IN THE COMPLETE
WRONG DIRECTION

AND HEAD FURTHER OUT TO SEA
INSTEAD OF GOING HOME,

AND THAT'S JUST TERRIFYING.

Eve: ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO.

I HAVE NEVER BEEN
STRANDED ON A BOAT,

BUT I KNOW A GUY
THAT WAS ON A BOAT.

HE WAS STRANDED HALFWAY
FROM YUKON ISLAND TO THE SPIT

AND HE DRIFTED FOR THREE DAYS.

HE WENT ALMOST ALL THE WAY
OUT TO THE BARREN ISLANDS,

'CAUSE IT WAS
AN EAST WIND BLOWING.

AND THEN
THE DAMN WEATHER CHANGED

AND THE WEST WINDS BLEW UP
AND THE TIDES CHANGED

AND IT BLEW HIM ALL
THE FREAKING WAY BACK IN,

ALMOST EXACTLY WHERE
HE'D COME FROM.

HE WAS FREAKED.

SURVIVAL IS THE NAME
OF THE GAME HERE,

I GUESS WHICH IS WHY
YOU HAVE FLARES.

CATCHES YOUR ATTENTION.

[ FLARE GUN FIRES ]

Narrator:
HIGH IN THE HILLS ABOVE
THE HEAD OF THE BAY,

ATZ LEE RETURNS FROM THE WOODS
WITH RENEWED DETERMINATION.

TOGETHER, HE, FATHER ATZ SR.,

AND JOHN COILA HAVE A PLAN
TO KEEP THE SAWMILL WORKING,

NO MATTER WHAT MOTHER NATURE
THROWS AT THEM.

AT THIS POINT, BUILDING
THE STRUCTURE'S KIND OF,

YOU KNOW, JOHN'S DESIGN.
I'VE NEVER DONE IT BEFORE.

SO BASICALLY, YOU KNOW,
WE'VE GOT TO GET SOME POSTS,

PUT SOME LOGS ON TOP OF THOSE,

AND THEN COVER
THE STRUCTURE WITH A TARP.

IF IT WAS ANY MORE PERFECT,

WE'D HAVE TO
TAKE PICTURES OF IT.

WHEN WE GET TO THIS
MONUMENTAL PLACE,

GETTING ATZ LEE'S HOMESTEAD
GOING THIS EARLY IN THE SEASON,

IT IS A WONDERFUL FEELING.

NOT BAD, GENTLEMEN.

IT'D BE EASY NOW TO THROW
THE OTHERS UP THERE.

I'M PROUD OF ALL OF US.

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY,
I'M PROUD OF MY SON.

WE ALL HAVE CHALLENGES.

HIS CHALLENGE IS HOW
IS HE MENTALLY,

EMOTIONALLY DEALING WITH STRESS?

HOW'S HIS BODY HOLDING UP?

OH, YEAH.
WE'RE GOOD.

GREAT.
BUT HE'S HEALING

BEING IN CLOSER TOUCH
WITH THE WILDERNESS,

AND I'M HAPPY TO
BE A PART OF IT.

AND YOU FOUND THE SOFT SPOT
IN THE POLE.

THREE, TWO, ONE. YES. YEAH.

LET'S JUST STRETCH THE TARP OVER
AND GET A FEEL FOR IT.

Atz Lee:
EVERYTHING'S COMING TOGETHER.

YOU KNOW,
IT'S NO LONGER JUST A DREAM.

THIS THING HAS BEEN TAKING
A LOT OF TIME AND ENERGY,

AND TO FINALLY SEE IT
START TO COME TO FRUITION,

IT'S JUST AN AWESOME FEELING.

I KNOW THAT IT'S PUT MY MARRIAGE
THROUGH A LOT OF STRAIN.

I KNOW THAT I'VE GOT A LONG WAYS
TO GO BEFORE I COMPLETE IT.

BUT AT THIS POINT, YOU KNOW,

I'M JUST THANKFUL FOR
THE PEOPLE THAT'VE HELPED

AND I FEEL LIKE
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK.

ANOTHER DAY WE'VE GOT
SOME WORK ACCOMPLISHED

TOWARDS THE END RESULT,
THE HOUSE.

Narrator: 40 MILES AWAY,

IN THE MIDDLE OF KACHEMAK BAY,

OTTO, CHARLOTTE,
AND EIVIN DESPERATELY

SEARCH THE SKIES FOR JANE
AND EVE'S FLARES.

WE ONLY HAVE ONE FLARE LEFT.

I REALLY HOPE
THEY SEE IT THIS TIME,

BECAUSE I'M REALLY NOT SURE

WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO
AFTER THIS.

ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO.

THERE IT IS.
DO YOU SEE IT, EIVIN?

THERE IT IS!

HOLY MOLY.
WE'VE GOT A BEARING.

DID YOU JUST SEE THAT?
I SAW IT. YEAH.

I'LL TURN.

YEAH, WE SEE YA,
WE SEE YA.

YEE-HAW!
THAT'S EXCITING.

THEY SEE US.
THEY'RE ON THEIR WAY.

HALLELUJAH.

COMING HOME.

Jane:
KNOWING THAT WE'RE GOING TO GET
OUT OF THIS MESS THAT WE'RE IN,

THAT OUR FISH ARE
GOING TO BE SAVED,

IT'S A BIG SIGH OF RELIEF.

Eve: AWESOME! YEE-HAW!

THEY LOOK PRETTY
HAPPY TO SEE US.

[ LAUGHS ]

Eve: IT'S REALLY EXCITING WHEN
THE CONSTRUCTOR PULLS UP

AND WE FINALLY
THROW THE LINE TO THEM.

BEING CONNECTED TO A BIG,
SAFE BOAT

THAT HAS ENGINES WORKING
IS REALLY EXCITING.

IT'S GOOD TO SEE EIVIN,
JUST KNOW THAT WE ARE SO LUCKY

THAT WE'VE GOT SO MUCH FAMILY
AROUND TO HELP.

Otto: YEAH,
I'M GOING TO LIFT IT UP NOW.

Eivin:
IT'S A MAJOR RELIEF TO KNOW
THAT EVE IS SAFE AND SECURE,

AND IT'S DEFINITELY A REMINDER

THAT YOU REALLY HAVE TO
RELY ON YOUR FAMILY

TO BE THERE WHEN YOU NEED THEM.

SO EVERYBODY JUST
GO TO THE BEACH?

LET'S FINISH THIS DAY.

TALLY-HO.
LET'S KEEP GOING.

NOW THAT WE'VE GOT THE GIRLS,

WE'VE GOT TO TAKE
THE NANUK HOUSE

AND BRING IT BACK
TO KILCHER BEACH.

WE'RE JUST GOING TO KIND OF
STOP THE CONSTRUCTOR.

WE'LL TRY TO LOWER THE BOAT
BACK IN THE WATER.

Eivin: WE TIED THE LITTLE BOAT
ALONGSIDE THE CONSTRUCTOR

AND THEN WE WERE ABLE
TO DRIVE THE CONSTRUCTOR

INTO THE BEACH
TO START UNLOADING

ALL THE STUFF
THAT WE HAD ONBOARD.

OKAY, HERE WE GO.
GOING UP!

Otto:
THAT LOOKS LIKE THAT'S GOOD.

Eivin: HERE WE GO!

Otto: NOW ALL WE'VE GOT TO DO
IS GET THE HOUSE OFF THE BOAT...

Jane: LOOKS GOOD FROM HERE.

PUT THE HOUSE UP ABOVE
THE HIGH-TIDE LINE

SO IT'S FACING THE OCEAN.

Eivin: PRETTY DAMN SKETCHY
FOR A HONEYMOON SHACK.

Otto: SHE'LL BE AS BRIGHT
AND SHINY AS A NEWLYWED

BEFORE YOU KNOW IT.

Eivin: GETTING THE NANUK HOUSE

OFF THE BOAT
WENT PRETTY SMOOTHLY.

WE RIGGED IT UP
THE EXACT SAME WAY

THAT WE RIGGED IT
TO GET IT ON THE BOAT,

AND AT THAT POINT,
I THINK I HAD A PRETTY GOOD IDEA

OF HOW TO OPERATE THE EXCAVATOR
SO THAT WE COULD

GET IT MOVED
INTO PLACE REALLY EASILY.

OVER THERE FOR NOW?

THAT WAY.

JUST A LITTLE MORE.

OKAY, STOP.

NOT BAD.

I THINK THAT'S ABOUT AS GOOD
AS WE'RE GOING TO GET IT.

YOU KNOW, IT'S GOOD
ENOUGH TO WORK ON.

OKAY.
SO BACK OUT.

Otto: IT LOOKS GREAT,

AND THE FINAL TEST WILL BE
WHEN IT MAKES PEOPLE SAFE.

THEN WE'LL KNOW
WE DID THE RIGHT THING.

LOOKS GOOD, DAD.
I'M GLAD WE'VE GOT IT HERE.

YEAH.

Charlotte: I LOOK FORWARD TO
BEING ABLE TO FIX IT UP,

AND IT'S JUST
GOING TO BE AWESOME

TO HAVE THAT HOUSE
BACK IN OUR LIVES

AND ACCESSIBLE TO US.

I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT YOU

AND EIVIN DID
TO GET THIS THING HERE.

Otto: WE'VE BEEN A GOOD TEAM,

AND THAT'S WHAT I LOVE
ABOUT THE FAMILY.

WE REALLY CARE
ABOUT EACH OTHER.

MAYBE HANG A PIRATE'S
FLAG ON IT.

YEAH!
KILCHER CREST.

JOLLY ROGER.
HOW 'BOUT THE KILCHER CREST?

LET'S GO HOME.

Eve: YEP. LET'S EAT SOME FISH.
