- What do you think's gonna happen? - Well, I hope that we expose the truth.

Yeah. And Justin needs to go home.

Hopefully, they make the right decision.

All we can do is finish this game with our dignity.

And if they choose not to, it's on them.

Ball in your court, Charlie.

We did what we needed to do.

Jill's trying to push me out because she's overwhelmed

'cause her plan has not succeeded from day one,

and she's such a control freak.

From the very beginning, I wanted to be loyal to Alpha,

until Alpha stopped being loyal to me.

If he gets to play this game after what he did,

there's no way.

We saw you walk away.

I'm happy aligning with Charlie Camp.

This is a drama-free zone.

I came from a drama-filled zone.

- Those bitches thrive on that shit. - I know.

They love it.

Hey, guys, we're home.

- All right, baby. - Hey!

- Afternoon, gentlemen. - Welcome.

Afternoon, how's your feet?

Ah, they're wet but...

- We'll get you dried off. - I got 'em wet.

I'd come out, but I'm barefoot and half-naked.

- I appreciate your hospitality. - It's freezing.

- I didn't make it this morning. - That's all right.

Well...

So, was I talkin' shit when I...

Not at all.

You guys got it going on.

I'm officially part of Team Charlie.

I'm in a different location.

Different vibe.

Different, just everything.

They have a shelter that's twice the size of the one I was used to.

They have fire inside the shelter, so the shelter stays warm. I'm happy.

Walk wasn't terrible?

- It was well worth it. - Yeah?

- We're glad to have you. - Glad to have you.

Thank you, gentlemen. Nick.

- Justin. - Good to see you again.

- Brother. - Wrestler to wrestler.

- Yes, sir. yeah. - Phew!

So, we got Justin over to Camp Beartooth.

I'm very happy to have him. This is a huge move for us.

And if he pulls his weight here, which I think he will,

then, like, our job just got easier.

Oh man, that's good. Yeah.

You gotta tell us some tales, bro.

Oh man. I'm telling you, you guys dodged a bullet with Jill.

Yeah.

I think she means well. She wants to play the game, but every day,

she was trying to figure out a way to cause a disruption.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Like, "This is a game." We kept seeing it.

- Yeah, dude. - We caught it right off.

She can't do anything to us physically,

so mentally, she'll come and try to drive wedges.

That's exactly what she's doing over there now.

From the beginning, Jill's been playing the game,

and she's damn good at it.

And I just got tired of it, man.

Then she started turning on me, and I was like, all right, I'm not trying to argue.

How's your relationship with Amber?

It was good. It was fine, but Jill's turned Amber.

- She follows her like a lost puppy. - Yeah.

So, I know she's trying to manipulate the situation

and try to push me out to advance her position.

And I just know that I didn't want to spend another minute in that camp.

They both, like, seemed like they started to turn.

Excited to have Justin on board. Seems like he's gonna fit good.

Now we got another hunter in camp. There's two of us.

We'll try to double-team this thing

and get some deer steaks on the grill here before long.

That's where those deer come in. They circle you.

- Where do you think I should go? - Um...

I think if one of us gets on this side and one gets on that side.

- Say 30 yards apart or so. Set up. - Okay.

As far as Alpha goes, we don't know what they're doing.

So, we're keeping an eye out for signs of 'em.

- Oh, we got an arrow. - Oh, whoa.

Oh.

- What's this? Feel like reading something? - Yeah, let's go.

There you go.

"Good morning, Charlie boys."

"We sincerely hope you three are doing well."

Yeah.

"After you accepted Justin into Charlie,

he's been cheating by destroying and raiding our camp."

"He stole gear, personal property, and has been stealing food from our team."

"Are these the rules that you all wish to play this game by?"

"Is this really how you want to finish the game?"

What do you think?

At least she spelled Charlie right.

Let's call it a loss this morning.

- It was worth the effort. - Yeah.

Don't trust that note one bit.

She's being manipulative.

- I don't trust her. - Mm-hmm.

She was trying to jump ship and come over here and sabotage us anyway.

Yeah, I don't trust Jill as far as I can throw her,

but that note was very disconcerting.

And if that's the truth, then we've got some serious thinking to do

because this implicates all of us as a team.

But right now, I ain't buying this at all.

- Doesn't have a leg to stand on. - No.

- She was nasty to us. - Yeah.

We're super skeptical.

They're grasping at straws.

And that's desperation tactics.

- We've seen how she can be, so... - Uh-huh. Smell blood in the water.

We're right above camp.

Shit.

- We'll let Justin read this too. - Yeah.

Give Justin a chance to talk about it when he wants to.

I'm here to play the game. I'm here to win.

Hey, so how'd the hunt go?

No good. Didn't see anything.

You didn't see anything? No calls, nothing? No close calls?

Tons of sign. There's deer trails and deer scat everywhere.

Oh, yeah.

Heard 'em, but nothing came out to poke its head out to say hello.

Yeah.

- Find berries or anything? - Berries?

- Got mushrooms. - Mushrooms.

All right.

Guys were definitely bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and alert, I noticed.

So, I knew something was up. I don't know what.

So, while y'all were away, we did find a note

from Alpha, and I'm gonna let you read it.

- All right? - Okay.

Jill's trying to basically take me out of the game,

and one of which is sabotage, apparently.

"Destroying and raiding our camp." I didn't "raid" anything.

So, she's reaching. She's grasping at straws here.

- Don't believe her for one second. - Yeah.

Uh...

"Taking gear." Yeah, like, the hatchet 'cause they have an extra one.

Uh...

"Personal property." Well, I didn't steal any of their personal property.

"I've been cheating the whole game, stealing food."

If I was to steal food, it'd be pretty blatantly obvious.

So, she's definitely trying to grasp at straws and throw me under the bus.

- Their final play. - They'll try to break us up.

We already know that her mind games aren't gonna work.

This is so weak. Desperation, man. Wait 'em out.

I have no reason to be dishonest with you.

And I'm not gonna sit here and try to defend myself,

but I will tell you the God's honest truth.

Yes, I destroyed this tarp.

- You destroyed the tarp? - Mm-hmm.

Just the tarp?

- Just the tarp. - The tarp wasn't part of their shelter?

Or...

No, it was.

Um...

I definitely don't wish to hurt anyone out here.

That's not my intent.

But my intent is to win. That means you have to play dirty sometimes.

- It was part of their shelter? - It was destroyed?

Yeah, but because you said no drama,

so I didn't wanna... take their sleeping bags.

I didn't wanna do anything to alarm them

to be on some wild-goose chase over here

and bring that into you all's camp.

But I did destroy the tarp, yes. I shredded it.

So, it's an act of desperation.

I didn't raid the camp.

Yeah.

- I was like, well... - Well, the problem is that...

Once we spoke to you and said we have a spot for you,

you became Charlie Camp.

Usually my first impression is right.

And I felt okay with him, but, yeah, who knows?

I figured I'd do whatever it takes to win.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Because of my actions, I made my bed. I'll be man enough to sleep in it.

But at the same time, I wanna be here.

We gotta have a talk real quick. Sorry, Justin, we'll be right back.

All right.

- This is big bad. - Yeah, big bad. So...

Big bad.

What do you think about that?

So...

So one, I think everything they lost was corrected.

I do not like the destroying of stuff.

That was the one...

- Thing. - ...thing.

And he was a representative of Camp Charlie at the time.

I do feel like he lied, but I also understood why he lied.

So, it was like a "what do we do?"

After minutes of deliberation, Team Charlie has come up with an answer.

Hey, so, since you came over to our camp,

that's technically sabotage, you know what I'm saying?

- I was being forced out, so why not... - I get it.

- One hundred percent. - ...light the TNT and burn the bridge?

I understand.

- It wasn't the correct thing to do. - Absolutely not.

We wanna take the moral high ground, always.

The whole C Camp can be liable for that.

Yeah. So, what is y'all decision?

So we have to separate because of that.

Okay.

When we accepted him, it implicated all of us as a camp,

and that was like a crushing blow to us.

But I gotta take the high moral ground.

I think he was in a really bad situation.

I went through that same thing with, you know, Delta for a few days,

and I... I totally understand it.

I wish he hadn't done it. He wishes he hadn't done it.

We can't morally tolerate something like that,

so we had to politely ask him to step down.

And he was a man about it, and he took the high road.

I respect their decision even though I don't like it.

If I had to do it over again, I probably would've left it alone.

Banished from Charlie Camp and knowing with certainty

that Team Alpha will not take him back...

I feel like I'm walking to the gallows.

...Justin is now out of options.

He must fire his flare and leave the game.

Didn't think there'd be any repercussions, honestly.

But unfortunately, that's not the case.

Maybe I just played a little too dirty.

That's justice, right there.

I've come this far,

been out here over a month, and went from an emotional high yesterday

to an emotional low today.

And, uh,

I'm just disappointed.

Now I've seen both sides. I know who's winning this.

Today, the light prevailed.

Today, the light prevailed.

We're gonna win this, aren't we?

Yes, we are.

It's Day 35, and winter is no longer knocking at the teams' doors.

It has officially arrived.

It's snowing!

Look at this winter wonderland.

We are living in Alaska in the winter...

Oh my gosh!

...and had a snowstorm last night.

Oh, baby! Magic.

Wow, guys, winter wonderland. Look at this!

Woke up to snow and warm gloves, man. It's a good day.

This is it, baby. I love this.

- While only a few inches now... - Look!

...more snow is on the way.

Oh my God!

This part of Alaska gets almost 100 inches of snowfall per year.

Oh God!

Look how beautiful.

Oh, I'm gonna start crying.

It's so beautiful here.

Shots fired.

It has happened.

Despite the beauty that the snowfall brings...

This is wet snow. We will be wet.

Yeah, I'm gonna put my snow pants on.

...it's a reminder that the remaining teams will face

even more difficult conditions ahead.

But it don't get really cold when it snows. It's when it stops snowing.

- Oh, yeah. - Yep.

That is, unless this game of survival that they've been playing

comes to an end.

Dude, I didn't think there was gonna be another resource drop

or another drop at all.

Always something going on around here.

What may be our last tangible drop came today.

Jeez.

It may be the ticket to winning the game.

But Alpha Team will take this win. I will make damn sure of it.

With two final teams remaining,

the players speculate what this surprise drop has in store for them.

There's a helicopter. I'm just thinking what can be next?

And it's probably gonna be a challenge.

But whatever it may be, we're ready for it.

At least we're moving.

Maybe we'll get warm.

There they are. Right there.

I have my suspicions that it's possibly the last challenge. I don't know.

- Knew it. - Yep, there it is.

Knew it.

- There it is. Yep. - Add a compass. We're good.

"Only two teams remain, but only one team can win."

Here.

"An arduous journey to the finish line lies ahead."

"Teamwork, loyalty, and strength will be tested at every turn."

"One final drop has been made at the tip of the peninsula marked on your map."

"The first team to reach the drop will claim the prize."

"In order to win, you must arrive with your entire team intact."

"The team you are with now is the team you must take to the finish line."

"Leave promptly at sunrise."

"Leave promptly at sunrise."

We're there. We're gonna hustle ass, and we're gonna get there.

"An arduous journey to the finish line lies ahead."

Finish line.

Finish line.

I didn't even...

Yes. Hell, yes. This is it.

Oh my God, girl.

Don't cry yet. We have a freaking journey ahead of us.

We're eating a good meal today.

- We are eating today. - Lunch, dinner...

- We're eating today. - Breakfast, lunch, dinner.

After 35 days facing the harsh Alaskan elements,

one another, and playing the game the best way they knew how,

an ending is finally in sight for Alpha and Charlie...

Here's the nearest.

...who now prepare for a race to the finish.

The way to get there...

We have a river crossing.

They might have one too.

They don't have a river crossing?

Not if they're going the way we're going.

Yep.

We're racing against the other team, racing against time.

It's balls out, um, everything we got.

Those girls are very mentally tough,

and I think they're physically able, and they are a threat for us.

We're gonna have to go up and over the muskeg

to come down on the other side of this freaking mountain.

- Do you see these topo lines? - Yep. Oh, God.

The topo line, see how sharp these are?

- This is straight up and down. - Yep.

These are cliffs. We have to go around. We cannot hike that.

I know, but once we get to here, to get to here.

No, we'll have to go all the way around it.

We cannot hike straight up that.

That is a cliff.

The journey that we face at sunrise

is unmeasurable,

and yet we're ready.

Meanwhile, across the river,

Charlie Team commemorates their last night in Alaska together...

It's been an honor.

- It's been an honor, my friends. - Yes, it has. No matter what.

- I'd go into battle with you. - I'd go into battle with you guys any day.

...playing for the race to the finish line.

What do you boys think about this journey tomorrow?

I'm gonna push you all hard.

If I puke, don't worry about it.

Don't do it while you're running.

Yeah.

Just leave it all out there, man.

I think if we just push hard and just focus on what we have to do, we got it.

All on the table.

That's it, baby.

- You know they'll hustle their asses off. - Oh, yeah.

Our last night in the Alaskan wilderness.

How are you feeling right now?

Man, I would love to think

that it's the last leg

because it's so hard to continue.

Yes, girl.

I'm trying to think, like, what's the dynamic

within the three remaining Charlie Team members.

I would assume

that they have some kind of brotherhood.

We'll see how it plays out tomorrow.

We'll see if their loyalty and their strength in unison

is strong enough to carry all three to the finish line

because they all have to be there, together.

'Cause it says your loyalty and strength will be tested.

Which we've been testing our strength for the past few weeks.

Tomorrow's gonna be a very,

very physically challenging day.

It's Day 36, but neither team has seen sunrise on the Neka River yet.

Both teams have nerves and anticipation

for each of their nine-mile treks ahead of them.

I know how to get out of here,

'cause I studied this shit.

I hope.

Although both Alpha and Charlie have the same destination

at the end of the peninsula and roughly the same distances,

much like their different styles of gameplay,

the two teams will take drastically different paths.

I think we ought to cross there, where it's the lowest, and then go back.

- Shoot straight, skirt the island. - Yeah.

You see all that, how it's a wetland right now?

Yep.

I do not want to get wet.

I don't wanna get my feet wet. I'll take my boots, cross the water and...

Put 'em back on and go.

Well, I'm good with that. I'm following you two.

All right. We're gonna be at a very brisk walk.

- Is that all right? - I'll do what I can do, brother.

Charlie Team, on the other side of the Neka River,

will encounter relatively open terrain.

But to make up for this, their route is slightly longer,

and they must make multiple crossings through ice-cold waters.

Starting at the waterfall, you wanna...

Well, it's high tide, so I guess we are tracking it through the backyard.

It'll just... Yeah, why not? Why not go through the backyard?

- Yep. - One more.

One more climb.

- Okay. - One more climb.

- One more game. - Waiting on the sun.

Alpha Team has a slightly shorter route,

but the first part of their path passes through difficult, uneven terrain

with virtually no visibility.

Manifesting...

- We got this. - ...positive...

Yes. Pace.

Remember, be mindful with the steps.

We are operating on very little calories.

So what we think we can do and what is typically easy...

We won't last.

...it's going to be very difficult today.

So, especially up this first part, where we're doing the elevation gain.

- Mindful, slow. - Slow. Watch your steps.

It is a trip hazard every time you pick up your foot.

- Yes, exactly. Okay? - Okay.

We have our path. Don't overthink it.

Two-oh-one.

Two hundred and one degrees, baby.

Okay, so we need...

the universe to be on our side one more time.

Which it has been this entire time.

- Even when we didn't think it was. - Even when we didn't think it was. Okay?

We had to fight hard on this slope, on this mud fall.

- Worst place on the board. - The worst location, but...

- No perks! - There are no perks, but...

- There is a perk. - There is a perk.

Because this morning, it starts us ahead of the Charlie boys.

Just a hair. Yeah.

And that is what we are going to need.

It's an advantage we have not had the entire time.

So, even though you think that the world and life is against you...

- Not every time. - Not every time.

So, let's go get this.

Let's go home to our men.

Yes.

I love you, girl.

I love you so much.

And with the first light of sun rising over the mountains...

This is it, babies, cash money day.

This is it.

Let's get her, guys.

- Love you, guys. - Love y'all.

...the race to their prize has begun.

Let's go, boys.

Let's go.

Hey, pace.

I know. It's so hard.

It's like, it's a race, but it can't be a race, you know.

Well, this is not a sprint.

You're right.

Let's switch back toward the waterfall, and then we'll get our bearings.

Yep.

While Alpha enters the dense forest,

Charlie approaches their first water crossing.

Wish I knew a good Walt Whitman poem.

In efforts to expedite their journey,

Charlie Team has opted for a more direct route to their destination.

It offers a shorter distance but it comes at the expense

of additional water crossings.

So, here's gonna be the first river crossing.

Maybe we can walk across that one without stripping down.

- We'll see about it. - So we got to hurry.

- How deep is it? Can you tell? - Not too far out, I can't.

What do you think of that?

What do you think? I don't know what's over there, but I can wade this.

- You wanna do this? - Let's try. I'm gonna try it.

We may have to come back and take our stuff off.

- Yeah. - Stuff off?

Yeah.

We had a plan, you know, that would save us 30 minutes, maybe more,

if we just hit the water, cross it where we can,

uh, rather than skirt around the edges.

It's about knee-deep.

Probably got one more crossing left.

- Yeah. - Wasn't too bad, was it, boys?

- No. - Nope.

As Charlie recovers from their freezing water crossing,

Alpha is struggling to navigate through the dense terrain of their forest passage.

Look at this. This is crazy ass terrain, man.

Yeah, it is.

I can definitely say I've never hiked in anything like this before.

When you're in forest that is that thick,

the best thing to do is put your back to your object,

find the next object that's directly in line with your heading,

go to it, and then do it again.

We've gotta get the bearing off the waterfall to make this work.

You can hear it. It's right to our left.

So, the waterfall cut is right here.

Yep.

If you walk straight,

I'll get the bearing, and then I'll give you a tree.

Okay.

Wilderness navigation is done by setting a known guide point

and following its bearing.

I don't see you.

But in this dense rainforest, the bearings can be deceiving.

Stay right there. Don't move.

There's a path right here.

Well, we can't take paths if we're gonna use a bearing.

- Remember I said find something to go to... - I know.

But also use the path of least resistance.

If you get off of it, the bearing will never work again. So this...

- Is that our two-oh-one? - That is our two-oh-one.

- That seems awfully far. - Do you see that dead looking tree?

Yep.

Can you keep that in focus and let me figure out where east is on us?

Mm-hmm.

God, that two-oh-one seems

awfully to the right.

- It does not. - Okay, I trust you.

I got

two-oh-one in my directional, east.

- All I have to do is put it at east... - Yeah.

...and this tells us where to go.

- Okay. - All right?

Okay, walk toward that dead tree and...

- With both teams... - ...keep going.

...opting to make shortcuts on their journey,

they'll both face unforeseen paths.

I don't think we can wade it. I bet it gets deep there in the middle.

Some may work to their advantage,

some may present obstacles that will hinder a quicker route to winning.

- It just gets wider, look. - Yeah.

- Another river crossing there. - Yeah.

- See up there where it gets kinda narrow? - Yeah.

Got a bunch of grown men walking around in their underwear.

- Right here. - Yep.

What do you think?

It's something.

Boots and pants.

We got one more.

Oh my God.

The water crossings, you can't feel your feet.

The only thing that you can feel is

the deep pressure of pain.

Like way deep in the bottom of your foot,

like a faraway sensation of knives and stabbing.

That touched the boys.

Is this the way?

It is now.

Ah!

Which way?

Keep going, I guess.

Once you commit, you can't turn around.

You go 50% of the way. What are you gonna do, turn around?

You just keep going, man.

Oh.

There goes my boots.

As we're walking across the water,

we're in severe trouble for hyperthermia.

Oh my God.

- My boots got wet. - That the last one?

No, probably not.

Though the two teams are on different trajectories,

each with their own decision on how they'd like to take their route,

whoever is first to make a misstep at this point in the race...

That's our mountain.

...will be at a huge disadvantage.

- Yeah. - We're getting too far.

See, we're here.

We need to go this way a little bit more

because we're gonna run right into that bay.

We can't go further east than we already are.

No.

- Okay. - All right.

Oh, look at this nice little trail. Follow the deer.

It's the universe saying, "You chose the right way."

We've got one more.

One more, Nick.

Coming.

I'm pretty sure that's the last one. I'm hoping.

How deep?

- Deep. - Oh, it's deep.

This is.

Look.

- Perfect. - Here we go.

Thank you, deer, for leading the way.

It's getting deeper and deeper.

We got one more.

This is gorgeous.

So, we summited this bitch.

- So, you know. - Yes, we did.

I see the bay. I see water.

Damn it.

We went too far east.

We're way off. Where's two-oh-one?

No, see my line?

Yep.

Down there is where we're supposed to go.

So, right when we get to the top,

we change the route, just a little bit.

We changed the degree mark, just a little bit.

So, go straight down this thing.

Backtrack a little bit here.

But you know, we had to come up so we could see.

So, just go straight down.

This is waist-deep right here.

Mother.

Let's go.

Each of the teams, so far, are managing their own chosen obstacles.

We've managed to pick up deer trails,

which have kinda got us off our straight-line course.

And both teams currently are neck and neck.

But we're still confident.

- And we're still moving. - Yep.

- That's all that matters. - That's right.

You all right, Nick?

I'm freezing. Dropped my boot.

Cross... we got one more.

I hear the water.

After clearing rough terrain and elevation changes...

Wow.

...Alpha Team is faced with an even bigger, unpredicted obstacle.

Is this the first bay?

I don't know.

How the hell do we get around it?

If this is the lake, that's the wrong way.

The map didn't say there was a lake in our way.

No, it said it's a bay.

God, Amber, I think this is the lake, man.

Why are you second-guessing yourself?

Ugh!

Because it doesn't feel right.

We're not here.

There is the big chain of mountains, right in front of us.

- Yes. - So, we're looking right here.

Amber and Jill are hoping to arrive at this bay

and follow the shoreline to the destination.

But their journey through the island's thick underbrush

has landed them off course at this lake.

There's no current.

We came down this side of the mountain. We veered to the right, right?

- We did not go this way. - So we need to...

- We're at this lake. - Okay.

- Do you trust me? - I trust you.

- Go that way. - Right.

Jill and Amber head east

to skirt the lake and find the shoreline.

Sweet Lord Almighty.

Nothing but a hike, girl. Nothing but a hike.

As Alpha is impeded by water obstacles...

Now, just the easy part of keeping the pace.

...Charlie realizes their shortcut path

has also presented more water obstacles than they anticipated.

We knew there was gonna be hidden water crossings,

but I had no idea they were gonna be that deep and that far.

So, we were deathly afraid of what would happen

if we couldn't rewarm ourselves.

My boots froze solid.

I can't feel shit.

Nope.

Sweet Lord Almighty.

All right. We didn't waste much.

It wasn't waste at all, really.

Though behind in distance,

Alpha can catch up and once again be neck and neck in this race.

God, this is a big lake.

But only if the route presents Charlie with more unseen surprises.

- No. - Another crossing.

Not again.

Maybe it's already frozen.

Paul's a man.

Paul is on that pace of

"I have to win this for my children," and I have nothing but love for him.

- Yep. - Went straight across that water.

He was like, yep, and got in. Yep, got in. Yep, got in.

- He knows what has to be done. - Yeah.

Paul set the pace. That's what we needed to get through that muskeg.

Uh, 'cause at most of the points, that mud was up to your ankles.

So, you're just sloshing through wetland that whole time.

And for me, that's hard because I have shorter legs.

I feel like if we just keep this pace up, no one can match us.

Yeah.

God, we're almost around this lake.

this frozen...

We're around the lake.

Didn't know that lake was that freaking big!

- Nick, I hate your boots. - I hate 'em too.

You kidding me?

These are getting the worst review on Amazon, Cabelas.com.

I'm gonna leave 'em at the Salvation Army, put gasoline in 'em, and set 'em on fire.

That's gonna be the picture of the review.

"These boots suck."

If we go that way, it's barely a mile.

If we go the other way, it's gonna make it almost two. It doubles.

Okay, well then, let's take the shortest route,

and we're gonna go straight to the bay.

Follow this mountain line.

- Let's go, girl. - Let's do it.

Know what this means, this signal?

- Chop chop, mother. - It means get to it.

Shut up, bitch. Let's go.

- Heading this way. - Right to the water.

With both teams nearing their own respective coastline,

once the teams arrive, it marks a final push to the prize.

Don't run, girl.

- I'm good. - We gotta get there together, so...

I will not leave you, I promise.

And at this point,

the teams are both even in the race to the finish.

- We're almost at the shoreline. - Yeah, okay.

So, let's just keep trucking east until we get there.

I'm with ya.

I can see the bay.

Yeah.

- Oh, careful. You okay? - It broke, yeah.

Nick got off the game trail when he seen that bay.

Sure did.

He started pushing through the hard shit.

Beautiful!

Yeah! yeah!

Man.

Nick.

Sorry, bro.

Thank you.

Watch your eyes.

Once we get over here,

we can walk that shoreline the whole way.

Oh yeah, we're going downhill now.

Listen.

- Do you hear? - Yep.

Head straight towards it.

Woo!

Oh yeah, baby. That's it.

Save it, Nick. We're only halfway there.

Watch your face.

I see water, baby girl.

God, we covered some ground.

I hope we did.

And I hope we made up our time

and didn't lose our edge.

To get there and know that this is all I have to do,

is maintain this heading...

Woo!

We got it.

It's already done. We just have to do the physical work.

It's easy from here on out, girl.

All we had to do is get here, and now, all we do is follow the shore.

Just travel that line, go around the bay,

and get the prize.

It's a piece of cake.

- Yes, it is. - It's just miles.

Holy shit.

Where's them boys? Where are them boys?

Hopefully, behind us.

Oh yeah, baby. That's it!

Yes.

Let's go right over this log.

This'll feel good on our hips after, like, an hour.

Paul's so tough.

Then we passed the point, and Paul's pace started to drop a little bit.

Somebody else lead.

That muskeg'll kick your ass.

Yeah, wore me the down, dude.

Picking 'em up, putting 'em down.

I just took over, like, that's exactly what he needed.

He needed somebody else to be the pace guy at that point in time.

We did make a mistake.

Like, we never got turned around though.

We kind of went...

- Because I made waypoints and bearings. - Yes.

And I took azimuth readings before we left.

Did they do that?

Does Paul know how to do that?

I'm a survivor,

but I'm not a survivalist,

until I met Jill.

And now, I get to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with a badass woman.

- I'm so proud of me. - I'm so proud of you.

Just tell me to shut up if you get tired of hearing that.

Shitty ass ground.

- Yeah. - Dangerous to walk on.

On Team Charlie, Paul has fallen behind.

And for this final challenge,

the rules state that your entire team must finish together in order to win.

I can't talk.

We're pushing to the narrows, and now, we're on the hard stuff,

huge trees that you gotta climb over and under.

Y'all need help?

No.

And out here, now, if I bend over and bend up, I almost pass out.

No room for thinking about anything other than,

"Can I put one foot ahead of this next foot, and can I do it again?"

I'm starting to see spots,

and their lead just keeps stretching and stretching.

If Paul can't continue,

neither can the rest of Charlie Team.

Lord, give me strength.

Jill, I think I see the finish line.

Okay, just breathe.

I don't see anybody. I don't see anybody.

How far...?

Behind or front, I don't see anybody.

We have made it to the finish line.

Amber!

Jill!

Amber!

Jill!

Amber!

We're doing it!

I'm trying to catch my breath and it's short.

It's that hard.

I'm done. I'm done.

So now, it's a real mind game.

- How are you doing? - Beat.

Let's go, Paul!

- Shit, baby. I think that's it. - Yep.

Dude, that's it.

Come on, Paul!

- Let's go, Paul! - Paul!

I'm beat.

Let's go! I see something! Let's go!

Okay.

But I'm not out.

Just a little burst of energy hit me.

I pushed through this last lay down. That's all I had.

I think we're going the right way.

We are going the right way.

It's easy from here on out, girl, and we're going home.

We get to go home after this, dude.

These bigger boulders, I have to be careful when I step on them.

They slide, and I don't wanna twist my ankle.

Come on, Paul.

Man, my thigh's cramping.

Oh my goodness.

Ah!

Shit.

Come on, Paul.

Ah!

We got it. Let's go, Paul!

- We are going to beat them. - Yes, we have to.

Ah this grass.

I don't like this grass.

When I saw Paul lagging back,

I knew, like, he was definitely feeling it.

You good?

Paul, you got it, baby.

I was like, how am I gonna carry this guy?

We finish strong, brother.

Finish strong.

Oh my God. What is that?

Oh, I feel it in my glutes and my hips on this one. That way.

I think it might be up in the woods.

After 36 grueling days of survival,

these two exhausted teams are finally closing in

on a much-needed end to the game

and a chance at victory.

It's right there.

Oh, I love you.

- I see it. - You see it?

I think I see three people standing on the shore.

Yes!

Read it, read it.

I wanna hear it.

Yeah!

Oh shit.

We have done all that we can do.

Team Charlie has reached the final drop,

and the game has one last message.

"Surviving with strangers...

is the most difficult situation one will face,

weighing loyalty versus self-preservation."

I'm coming home.

"Selfishness..."

She's destroying my raft.

"...versus selflessness..."

Angie, you're almost there!

"...and the desire to win versus the desire to quit."

Lord, give me strength.

"Survival in a group magnifies our darkest traits."

"Betrayal may allow for personal gain,

while fidelity can expose weakness."

"We tend to embrace the strong

and deceive the weak,

but only because it serves our motives."

"But in the pursuit of self-serving gains, bonds form."

Love you guys.

"Teammates become less of a hindrance and more of a necessity."

You got it, baby.

"We rely on each other for emotional security and physical support."

"Our motives may remain selfish, but the path to success

involves the abilities and the companionship of those around us."

"Your journey ends here."

"You have outlasted all the rest."

"Congratulations."

Yeah, dude!

The first person I call is my sister

because my sister bankrolled me

to come here 'cause I didn't have enough money.

Love you guys!

And I thought about you, almost the whole time.

We did it.

We kinda freaked you out here, man.

Hell, yeah. I did it.

I prayed every step of the way, and I couldn't have done it without,

you know, without that.

And I just prayed to God to give us the strength to push through,

to give us the right path,

and protect everybody, on both sides, both teams, protect everyone,

but give us the edge just a bit, and here we are.

I've never had enough to have a money fight...

- Yeah, money fight! - in life.

No.

Get to pay off all my debt, um...

Get to have a family now.

Oh, that's the biggest part of it. That's why I'm here.

- I love y'all. - Yeah!

There's our ride home. Yeah!

Oh God, we were so close.

Look at me.

I'm okay with this.

At least we made it here. Right?

Yeah.

I know... that money doesn't matter,

but...

God.

We were the underdogs.

The underdogs are supposed to win, right?

But that only happens in movies.

This is real life.

I'm just confused.

The universe was telling us, you know, that we were...

That we got this.

- And... - That this was our time.

Yeah.

You can ask me today,

you can ask me tomorrow.

You can ask me in 20 years.

I will always tell you... yes, I will still choose her.

I didn't even care if I get the check, I just wanted the victory.

I just wanted to be enough.

You are enough, baby girl.

First time in a helicopter.

I've almost got nothing left to get in with.

Oh, boys, that was the best experience of my life,

besides the birth of my children.

There's such a wealth of emotions to go through.

It's awesome, man. Who gets an opportunity like this?

Look where we are.

Congratulations, Charlie boys!

Congratulations, boys.

♪ Until you see it ♪

♪ I want to live it all... ♪

- yeah! - Woo!

I'll take you over that money, any day.
