GOD.

STEPPING IN THIS FOLIAGE IS LIKE ROLLING THE DICE.

OH, MY GOD.

ANT COLONY. WE'RE GONNA GET DESTROYED.

THEY'RE COVERING EVERY SQUARE INCH.

Shannon: THOSE THINGS BITE HARD.

GO BACK. *BLEEP* GO BACK. *BLEEP* GO BACK.

*BLEEP* RUN, RUN. AH, GOD!

WHOA! *BLEEP* *BLEEP*

Narrator: ONE MAN...

AND ONE WOMAN...

I'M NOT LEAVING!

...ALONE FOR 21 DAYS...

WHAT IS THAT?

...WITH NO FOOD...

OH, GOD, I'M FREEZING.

...NO CLOTHES...

-AAH! -...NO WATER...

AAH! OH, MOVE!

Narrator: DO THEY HAVE THE SKILLS AND THE WILL...

HURTS.

...TO OVERCOME THE MOST PRIMAL SURVIVAL CHALLENGE

OF THEIR LIVES...

...NAKED AND AFRAID?

Woman: WE'RE NOT IN PARADISE. WE'RE IN HELL.

CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS

SURROUNDED BY THE CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE ATLANTIC OCEAN

LIES THE VOLCANIC ISLAND OF TRINIDAD.

HERE, TROPICAL RAINSTORMS DRENCH THE LANDSCAPE

FOR SIX MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR.

THE HOT AND HUMID JUNGLE IS RENDERED ALMOST IMPENETRABLE

BY THE THORNY GRU GRU PALMS.

AND CLUSTERS OF BUBBLING MUD VOLCANOES

CAN SWALLOW INTRUDERS LIKE QUICKSAND.

Shannon: MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF TRINIDAD IS

IT'S NOT LIKE I'D IMAGINED.

THERE'S SOME NASTY *BLEEP* OUT THERE.

MY NAME'S SHANNON. I'M 38.

I LIVE IN OGDEN, UTAH. AND I'M A STONE MASON.

YOU GOT TO HIT THE BUTTON WITH YOUR THUMB.

Man: DON'T TELL ME HOW TO -- I'M A GROWN MAN.

DON'T TELL ME HOW TO...

I'VE PROVEN I COULD DO A "MAN'S" JOB.

I HAVE GUYS WORKING FOR ME

AND ALWAYS HAVE TO FIX THEIR WORK.

I FEEL LIKE I MIGHT AS WELL DO IT MYSELF.

I TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS.

I'M THE BOSS, YOU KNOW?

WHEN I WAS 23, I GOT LOST HIKING IN THE MOUNTAINS.

AND I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE I WAS GOING.

I STARTED BUILDING A SNOW MOUND, SLEPT IT IN OVERNIGHT.

SO THANK GOODNESS SEARCH AND RESCUE FOUND WHERE WE WERE.

I'LL MISS THESE GUYS.

I'M A MOM OF TWO KIDS. THEY'RE GREAT.

MY MOM'S GOING ON "NAKED AND AFRAID."

ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT HER?

SHE'S STRONG.

JUST WANT TO SHOW THEM THAT, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING.

Narrator: SHANNON'S SUCCESS IN A MALE-DOMINATED PROFESSION

PROVES SHE IS PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY TOUGH.

HER PRIMITIVE SURVIVAL RATING, OR PSR, IS SET AT 7.2.

Tim: MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF THE LOCATION

IS THE HEAT IS REALLY INTENSE.

MY NAME'S TIM. I'M 27 YEARS OLD.

I'M FROM LAND O' LAKES, FLORIDA. AND I'M A FIREFIGHTER.

MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN TOGETHER FOR EIGHT YEARS NOW.

DADA.

WE HAVE TWO BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN,

AND WE ARE THE TIGHTEST OF FAMILIES THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE.

GROWING UP WITH A SINGLE MOTHER,

SHE HAD TO WORK TWO JOBS.

SO IT WAS UP TO ME TO FEND FOR MYSELF.

SOME OF THE THINGS I DID AS A CHILD

WOULD BE JUST GETTING LOST IN THE WOODS.

IT TAUGHT ME TO RESPECT NATURE.

I THINK THAT'S KIND OF WHAT MADE ME AN INDEPENDENT PERSON.

I REALLY ENJOY BEING ALONE.

I THINK MY MENTAL TOUGHNESS

CAME TO ME THROUGH THE MARINE CORPS TRAINING.

YOU'RE ALWAYS HUNGRY. YOU'RE ALWAYS TIRED.

THAT REALLY DEVELOPED MY CHARACTER.

MY NERVES ARE THROUGH THE ROOF.

SO I JUST NEED TO MAKE SURE

I TAKE MY NICE, LONG, DEEP BREATHS, STAY CALM.

THAT'S GONNA BE IMPERATIVE TO MY SURVIVAL.

Narrator: AS A FIREFIGHTER AND A MARINE,

TIM POSSESSES THE SKILLS AND ENDURANCE NECESSARY

TO COMPLETE A GRUELING 21-DAY CHALLENGE.

HIS PSR IS ALSO SET AT 7.2.

Shannon: GUESS WE'RE HERE.

VERY EXCITED TO BE NAKED.

YOU JUST DON'T GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE NAKED

AND FREE FROM ALL THESE RESTRICTIVE CLOTHES.

Tim: I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH BEING NAKED.

I AM MOST EXCITED ABOUT THE SERENITY OF NATURE,

BEING ON MY OWN SCHEDULE

AND NOT HAVING ANYONE TELL ME WHAT TO DO.

YES, SIR!

I HOPE MY PARTNER ISN'T A KNOW-IT-ALL,

MY-WAY-OR-THE-HIGHWAY TYPE OF PERSON

AND SHE'S NOT JUST GOOFY 24/7.

Shannon: HE'D BETTER HAVE A MACHETE.

I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT MEETING MY PARTNER.

HOPEFULLY, WE'RE JUST COMPATIBLE.

COMPATIBILITY IS KEY IN SURVIVAL.

AND HOPEFULLY HE JUST LOVES MY INTELLIGENCE

AND CAN SEE BEYOND MY GIANT AMAZON BUSH.

I'M SHANNON. -TIM.

-NICE TO MEET YOU. -PLEASURE.

WHERE YOU FROM? -UTAH.

-UTAH? I'M FROM FLORIDA. -RIGHT ON.

YEAH. YOU READY TO GO 21 DAYS?

YEAH.

AWESOME. LET'S DO THIS TOGETHER.

LET'S MAKE IT. -ALL RIGHT.

ANY IDEA WHAT THIS IS?

LOOKS LIKE VOLCANIC MUD.

Narrator: IN ADDITION TO A POT, TIM AND SHANNON

HAVE ALSO BEEN ALLOWED TO BRING ONE ESSENTIAL ITEM.

-I BROUGHT CLIMBING ROPE... -PERFECT.

...FOR SHOES, CORDAGE, ALL KINDS OF CRAP.

WELL, I'M A FIREFIGHTER AND ROPE IS MY BEST FRIEND.

RIGHT ON.

SO I'M REALLY HAPPY WITH YOUR CHOICE.

WHAT YOU GOT?

THIS IS GONNA BRING US GREAT SUCCESS.

-NICE. -IT'S A CUSTOM-MADE MACHETE.

SWEET.

-CHECK IT OUT. -THIS IS AWESOME.

ALL THESE SAPLINGS... THIS IS GONNA BE GREAT.

COOL. I'M HAPPY. I'M REALLY HAPPY WITH OUR ITEMS.

-HERE'S THE MAP. -YAY, MAP.

THERE'S OUR WATER SOURCE. -WAIT.

I DON'T WANT TO BE TOO CLOSE WITH OUR SHELTER

BECAUSE IT'S A BREEDING GROUND FOR MOSQUITOES.

-YEAH. -BUT I'D LIKE TO...

I WOULD LIKE TO STAY A LITTLE HIGHER UP IN THE BREEZE.

THAT'S PERFECT TO ME, YEAH.

OH, LOOK. THERE'S THE MONKEYS.

SWEET. WE MIGHT HEAR THEM IN THE MORNING.

-THERE'S THE SNAKES. -WHERE ARE WE?

WE'RE ON THE MUD.

IT MIGHT BE A GOOD RESOURCE.

YEAH, IT COULD BE USED FOR OUR SKIN AND...

DO YOU WANT TO PUT SOME ON NOW?

BECAUSE THE SUN'S KICKING MY ASS.

IT'S NOT HOT. -NO.

AND IT FEELS GREAT.

I'M PUTTING SOME ON MY SHOULDERS.

Shannon: TIM'S AWESOME. I LIKE HIM.

HE'S GOOD. HE'S A FIREFIGHTER.

HE'S GOT SOME GOOD KNOWLEDGE.

SO I AM HAPPY AS I COULD BE ABOUT MY PARTNER.

ALL RIGHT, WAR PAINT. -SOLID.

I LOVE WALKING THROUGH THIS STUFF.

-I FEEL LIKE A KID... -I KNOW.

-...IN A PLAYGROUND. -PLAY IN THE MUD.

THOSE PALMS WITH NEEDLES ARE VERY INTIMIDATING.

OH, YEAH. THAT *BLEEP* SLIPPERY.

DIG YOUR TOES IN. -YEAH.

USE YOUR BIG TOE AS AN ANCHOR POINT.

Narrator: TIM AND SHANNON WILL HAVE TO MANEUVER

THROUGH THE ISLAND'S THORNY AND UNEVEN JUNGLE TERRAIN

IN SEARCH OF A FRESH WATER SOURCE.

IF YOU NEED A HAND, JUST HOLLER.

ALL RIGHT. YEAH, I'M GOOD.

I'M NOT USED TO TAKING ANYBODY'S HAND,

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

I THINK WE'RE BOTH OF THE SAME MENTALITY,

SO THERE'S POTENTIAL THERE TO BUTT HEADS.

BUT OVERALL, I HAVE GOOD VIBES.

I THINK WE'RE GONNA DO REALLY GOOD.

Narrator: SLEEPING IN THE TREETOPS IS THE OCELOT,

A NOCTURNAL HUNTER

THAT WILL FIGHT TO THE DEATH TO PROTECT ITS TERRITORY.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE...*BLEEP*

THERE IT IS. -THE ANTS?

JUST GOT BIT BY ONE.

Narrator: AT THEIR FEET, THE MAPEPIRE,

A HIGHLY VENOMOUS PIT VIPER

AND LARGE COLONIES OF STINGING ARMY ANTS,

WHICH ATTACK THEIR VICTIMS EN MASSE

AND CAN DISMEMBER CREATURES MUCH LARGER THAN THEMSELVES.

THEY HURT BAD.

Narrator: BUT THE BIGGEST THREAT

COMES IN AN EVEN SMALLER PACKAGE --

MILLIONS OF MICROSCOPIC MITES

THAT ARE ON THE HUNT FOR A HOST.

ONCE ATTACHED, THEY INJECT A DIGESTIVE ENZYME

THAT MELTS THE SKIN AND CREATES A FEEDING HOLE THAT ALLOWS THEM

TO EAT THEIR HOST FROM THE INSIDE OUT.

-WATER. -MM.

-YEAH, I'M... -YUMMY.

I DON'T WANT TO CAMP ANYWHERE NEAR THIS.

*BLEEP* NO. IT'S PRETTY MURKY BECAUSE

OF ALL THE RUNOFF FROM THE RAINY SEASON.

THIS IS DEFINITELY LITTERED WITH...PHBT.

Shannon: I WOULDN'T DRINK IT WITHOUT BOILING IT

SO WE'RE IN A PRETTY HARD SURVIVAL SPOT,

I THINK, FOR OUR BASIC NECESSITIES.

WELL, I'M JUST GONNA KEEP GOING UP.

YEAH. LET'S GO UP.

Tim: ONCE IT STARTS RAINING,

THE TERRAIN IS UNBELIEVABLY DIFFICULT.

SHANNON IS MAKING SHOES FOR US,

WHICH IS GONNA BE AWESOME.

IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP YOUR FOOTING.

WHOA *BLEEP* *BLEEP*

AW *BLEEP* *BLEEP*

-YOU OKAY? -YEAH.

I'M SURE THERE'S SOME THORNS JAMMED UP IN ME.

Tim: *BLEEP* THIS WAS A LITTLE BIT LONGER

THAN I HAD HOPED TO HIKE TODAY.

Shannon: YEAH.

WATCH YOUR STEP. THERE WAS A ANT HILL.

-SOMETHING JUST BIT ME. -OOH, YEAH.

THEY'RE ATTACKING ME. -WHOA. AAH!

*BLEEP* AH, AH, AH, AH.

-AH, THEY'RE BIG. -JUST TURN BACK.

JUST GO RIGHT BACK WHERE WE WERE.

WELL, WE'RE GOING TO WALK RIGHT INTO THEM.

IT DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE WE'RE *BLEEP* ALREADY *BLEEP*

-RUN, RUN. -I'M GOING.

WE'RE OUT OF THE AREA.

NO, WE'RE NOT.

IT WAS LIKE FREAKING JOLTS OF LIGHTNING THROUGH ME.

IT WAS LIKE I WAS GETTING SHOCKED.

THERE'S A LOT MORE LIFE THIS WAY.

LOOK HOW BEAUTIFUL THAT WATER IS.

THIS IS A NICE PLACE.

THERE'S LOTS OF VINES AND FOLIAGE TO COVER US WITH.

Shannon: NO. RIGHT THERE IS NOT GOOD.

I THINK THIS IS, LIKE, A NICE CLEARING RIGHT HERE, THOUGH.

THERE'S BANANA LEAVES UP HERE FOR CATCHMENT.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S GET A LEAN-TO GOING FOR THIS WOOD.

I'M GONNA GET TO WORK.

Tim: I'M VERY CONFIDENT THAT I CAN MAKE

A NICE A-FRAME SHELTER WITH AN ELEVATED BED.

YOU'VE GOT TO GET OFF THE GROUND.

THE GROUND IS ALIVE. NOT ONLY BUGS, BUT IT'S WET.

SO YOU NEED TO GET AWAY FROM BUGS AND OTHER CRITTERS.

IF YOU DO THEM ALL THREE AT A TIME,

YOU CAN GO OVER, UNDER, OVER, UNDER.

YOU'VE GOT THREE.

-OH, YEAH. -IT'S LIKE A WEAVE.

-WELL, I NEED TO GET THAT, THEN. -THIS IS GONNA SLIP UP.

Shannon: IT'S ALMOST LIKE IT NEEDS TO BE NOTCHED

ON THIS SIDE OR SOMETHING.

Tim: YEAH. I COULD DO IT IF YOU'D JUST LET ME.

WELL, YEAH, I KNOW.

BUT I GOT TO FIGURE THIS *BLEEP* OUT, TOO.

WHEN ARE YOU GONNA START THATCHING?

AS SOON AS THIS IS BUILT.

I MEAN, YOU COULD THATCH AROUND THE BED, THOUGH.

NO, I'M NOT GONNA DEAL WITH ALL THIS BULL *BLEEP*

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, DEAL WITH WHAT?

ALL THESE TREES IN THE WAY.

ONE PERSON SHOULD WORK ON THE BED.

ONE PERSON SHOULD WORK ON THE WALLS.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY WE BOTH HAVE TO WORK ON THE SAME...

BECAUSE WE'VE GOT ALL THIS *BLEEP* IN THE WAY.

IT'S GONNA BE SO DIFFICULT.

GET AT LEAST ONE OR TWO WALLS GOING.

I NEED MORE THATCHING.

THINK ABOUT IT. JUST THINK ABOUT IT.

Tim: YEAH, THIS IS NOT GOING AS QUICKLY AS I WANTED IT TO.

AND A LOT OF IT'S BECAUSE I WANT TO DO IT ONE WAY,

AND SHE WANTS TO DO IT ONE WAY.

IF I WAS BY MYSELF WITH TWO ITEMS,

I'D BE A LOT BETTER OFF, I THINK.

THIS IS WRONG. THIS IS NOT IN RIGHT.

-OKAY. -IT'S NOT, LIKE...

IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, CHANGE IT.

...IT IS NOT STRAIGHT UP AND DOWN.

DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD TRY TO WIDEN THEM?

-NO. IT'S PERFECT. -JUST HOLD IT HERE.

I'M GONNA TIE IT. -OH, MY GOD.

Shannon: I'M GONNA TIE IT.

IT WAS SECURE WITHOUT BEING TIED

BEFORE YOU MESSED WITH IT.

-YEAH, IT WASN'T GONNA WORK. -YEAH, IT WAS.

IT'S PRETTY MUCH IN THE SAME SPOT.

I COULD HAVE JUST MOVED THE BOTTOM PIECES OUT.

WHATEVER.

YOU TOLD ME TO PUT THAT NEAR THE TWO TREES, RIGHT?

THAT'S WHAT YOU SAID ORIGINALLY. -I DID.

OKAY. BUT NOW I'M CHANGING IT BECAUSE

BEFORE IT WAS... BUT NOW --

THIS IS WHY IT HAS TO BE RIGHT.

IT IS GONNA BE RIGHT.

WELL, YEAH, BECAUSE I'M GONNA MAKE SURE OF IT.

YOU JUST CHANGED YOUR MIND A LOT, THAT'S ALL.

Shannon: I LIKE TIM A LOT,

BUT THAT STRUCTURE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SOLID.

IF YOU'RE A STRONG CHICK, GENERALLY, YOU GET IGNORED.

AND THE ONLY WAY TO NOT GET IGNORED

IS TO TALK OVER SOMEBODY.

I'VE BEEN IN CONSTRUCTION FOR...

HERE WE GO.

...QUITE A LONG TIME. HAVE YOU?

IT'S NOT CONSTRUCTION. IT'S PRIMITIVE SHELTER.

IT'S PRETTY *BLEEP* BASIC.

OH, MY GOD. YOU ARE SUCH AN ASS.

IT'S ALWAYS GOT TO BE SHANNON'S WAY.

CHILL THE *BLEEP* OUT.

Shannon: WHY ARE YOU BUSTING UP THE *BLEEP* THATCH?

THIS IS WHY I DIDN'T WANT TO MOVE

AND CUT ALL THESE TREES DOWN.

WHY NOT? NOW THEY'RE NOT IN THE WAY.

COME ON. PULL IT OVER THERE.

JUST PULL IT OUT WIDE, AS WIDE AS YOU CAN GET IT.

Tim: WE'RE BOTH INDEPENDENT PEOPLE.

WE BOTH KNOW WHAT WE WANT.

AND IT TAKES A GREAT DEAL OF COMPROMISE

FOR PEOPLE LIKE US TO WORK TOGETHER.

OKAY. I'LL JUST DO IT. HERE, YOU GET THE SLATS GOING.

I'LL FIX THAT.

BITING MY TONGUE IS HARDER AND HARDER,

SO THIS SHOULD BE INTERESTING.

IT'S GETTING DARK, SHANNON. -YEAH.

TOMORROW, FIRE, WATER, FOR SURE.

Tim: THE REASON WHY WE'RE NOT JUMPING

ON FIRE FIRST THING IS BECAUSE THE WOOD'S STILL WET.

SO TONIGHT, I FORESEE IT BEING PRETTY BRUTAL.

THE BUGS, MOSQUITOES, THE ANTS, ONCE THE SUN GOES DOWN,

THEY'RE JUST GONNA COME OUT IN FULL FORCE.

THE *BLEEP* BUGS SUCK.

AND I SEEM TO BE GETTING BIT A LOT WORSE

THAN MY PARTNER IS.

BUT IT DOESN'T EVEN FEEL LIKE IT'S MOSTLY MOSQUITOES.

IT MOSTLY FEELS LIKE IT'S ANTS OR CHIGGERS OR...

-MITES. -...MITES, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

I DON'T REALLY HEAR ANY FLYING THINGS.

SO, YEAH, IT'S GONNA BE A LONG NIGHT.

I DON'T REALLY FORESEE MYSELF SLEEPING WHATSOEVER.

THERE'S LIKE *BLEEP* CRAWLING ON ME LIKE CRAZY.

BUGS STARTED ATTACKING SHANNON.

I'M JUST REALLY HOPING THE SUN'S COMING UP SOON

BECAUSE THIS IS *BLEEP* MISERABLE.

Tim: LOOK AT THEM BUG BITES.

NIGHT ONE WAS THE WORST NIGHT OF MY LIFE.

I AM JUST COMPLETELY COVERED IN BITES.

IT'S GONNA BE A BIG THING

TO TRY TO GET FIRE TODAY FOR THE BUGS.

HA. I JUST FOUND A BIRD NEST.

Shannon: GOOD JOB.

SO THIS WILL BE PERFECT KINDLING FOR OUR FIRE.

HOPEFULLY, WE GET FIRE SOON.

WE CAN BOIL THE *BLEEP* OUT OF THAT WATER.

DEFINITELY DON'T WANT TO DRINK THIS WITHOUT PURIFYING IT.

Tim: I'M TELLING YOU THOSE WOODS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE.

IT'S JUST OLD.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET THAT BURNING QUALITY.

Shannon: LOOK AT IT. IT'S NOT OLD. IT'S JUST HARD.

IT *BLEEP* WORKS. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

Tim: SHANNON IS A KNOW-IT-ALL.

NO ONE KNOWS AS GOOD AS HER.

SHE HAS TO DO IT ALL.

IT'S EITHER HER WAY OR THE HIGHWAY,

SO IT'S REALLY DIFFICULT.

TIM, COME BACK. I HAVE THE RIGHT WOOD.

IF YOU DON'T HAVE WATER TO DRINK

AND YOU NEED TO BOIL IT, FIRE BECOMES IMPERATIVE.

TIM!

PLEASE, WE NEED TO DO THIS DOUBLES.

OH, MY GOD.

Shannon: I'M PRETTY DETERMINED. I WANTED THAT FIRE GOING.

THERE'S NO WAY THAT IT'S GOING TO GET AWAY FROM ME.

GO AS LONG AS YOU CAN.

BREATHE, BREATHE, BREATHE IN.

YOU GOT THIS.

YOU GOT IT. YOU *BLEEP* GOT IT!

Tim: LET ME HELP!

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

AT LEAST WE KNOW WE CAN GET THE COAL.

HOLY *BLEEP* *BLEEP*

WHAT THE *BLEEP*

I DON'T THINK I COULD GET THIS GOING ALONE.

THIS REALLY IS A TWO-MAN THING.

WE'RE NOT GETTING IT GOING WITH ONE.

Tim: SHE SAID SHE'S A TEAM PLAYER.

BUT SHANNON, SHE DOESN'T LIKE TEAMWORK.

SHE LIKES TO BE THE BOSS. OBVIOUSLY, WE NEED TO GET FIRE.

REST ASSURED, I WILL NOT SPEND ANOTHER DAY CATERING

TO THE WILL OF OTHERS.

IT'S TIME TO PUT MYSELF IN THE FOREFRONT

BECAUSE, IF NOT, I COULD BE GOING HOME EARLY.

PICK UP YOUR TINDER SO IT DOESN'T GET WET.

YOU CAN'T START A FIRE IN THE POURING RAIN.

I'M JUST SO *BLEEP* THIRSTY. -YEAH.

Tim: I'M ALREADY FEELING THE EFFECTS OF DEHYDRATION.

I'M NOT GOING ANOTHER 24 HOURS WITHOUT ANY WATER.

COLLECTING RAINWATER IS SOMETHING THAT I COULD DO HERE.

BUT IT'S NOT A SUBSTANTIAL WAY OF COLLECTING WATER.

OBVIOUSLY, THE STREAM IS THE EASIEST WAY.

TO ME, IT SMELLED FINE.

I DIDN'T SEE ANY ORGANISMS IN THERE. I DIDN'T SEE FLIES.

I DIDN'T SEE FROGS, SNAKES.

YEAH. BUT WHAT ABOUT PATHOGENS?

DID YOU SEE THE PATHOGENS IN THERE?

YOU CAN'T SEE PATHOGENS.

-MAYBE I CAN. -THEY'RE UNSEEN.

WE HAVE NO CHOICE.

JUST *BLEEP* IT. DRINK THE *BLEEP* WATER.

Tim: I'M GONNA TRY NOT TO AGITATE THE WATER

AND JUST SKIM THE TOP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE

WITHOUT GETTING A LOT OF SEDIMENT.

YOU DON'T WANT TO INGEST THAT, EVEN IF IT'S PURIFIED.

I'LL WAIT FOR YOU TO CHECK IT.

I'M NOT GONNA RISK MY HEALTH.

ALL RIGHT. I JUST CHUGGED.

SO IF SOMETHING'S GONNA HAPPEN, THAT'LL DO IT.

I'M DRINKING WHAT I GOT.

I DON'T REALLY CARE IF IT GETS ME SICK.

I'LL JUST KEEP DRINKING IT.

THIS IS THE COLDEST WE'VE BEEN.

IT'S WEIRD.

AS SOON AS IT STARTED RAINING, THE CHIGGERS CAME OUT.

TOMORROW, I'M GONNA GO BACK TO THAT TREE BY MYSELF

AND GRAB SOME MORE DRY WOOD FROM THERE.

AND I'M GONNA WORK ON FIRE ALL DAY.

THAT'S THE ONLY THING I'M DOING TOMORROW.

Shannon: DON'T START WITHOUT ME.

THIS IS DAY THREE.

I'VE BEEN DRINKING THE WATER SINCE YESTERDAY,

AND I'VE BEEN FEELING FINE.

BUT WE NEED TO GET FIRE TO HELP WITH THE BUGS AND THE HEAT.

OBVIOUSLY, IT GETS COLD AT NIGHT.

AS MUCH AS A TEAM CHALLENGE THIS IS,

IT'S ALSO AN INDIVIDUAL CHALLENGE.

I KNOW THAT I'M BETTER AT FIRE-BUILDING,

AND I WANT TO DO THINGS MY WAY.

DUDE, COME ON. THIS IS A TEAM.

Shannon: FIRST THING I SAID TO HIM WAS,

"WELL, GET EVERYTHING READY. DON'T START WITHOUT ME."

AND THEN IT'S LIKE, WHAT HAPPENS?

HE DOESN'T HAVE THE TINDERS NEST READY.

HE DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING... -THERE'S A TINDER NEST.

...ANY KINDLING OUT. HE DOESN'T HAVE...

-IT'S ALL OUT RIGHT HERE. -I JUST PUT IT OUT...

NO. I PUT IT OUT THIS MORNING.

...AFTER YOU WERE STARTED.

NO, I BROUGHT IT OUT THIS MORNING.

-NO, I BROUGHT IT OUT. -"NO, I BROUGHT IT OUT."

Shannon: HE'S MORE BULLHEADED THAN I AM,

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

IT'S JUST A MATTER OF, LIKE, BULL VERSUS BULL.

YOU'RE, LIKE, THE ONLY ONE WHO KNOWS HOW TO *BLEEP*

DO THIS, RIGHT?

MY SURVIVAL APPROACH IS DEFINITELY PREPAREDNESS.

HIS SURVIVAL APPROACH IS DIFFERENT.

GOD, MOTHER *BLEEP*

-KEEP GOING. -SHUT UP!

I DON'T *BLEEP* NEED YOUR INPUT.

-OKAY. -*BLEEP*

-IT'S A TWO-MAN THING. -NO, IT'S NOT.

THIS FIRE-BUILDING IS A TWO-MAN THING.

I'M NOT YOUR EMPLOYEE.

I DON'T REALLY GIVE A *BLEEP* ANYMORE.

I HONESTLY DON'T. I'M BETTER OFF BY MYSELF.

SO *BLEEP* CLOSE. I'M RIGHT THERE.

I JUST DON'T HAVE THE ENERGY. I REALLY DON'T.

Shannon: YOU NEED FIRE.

YOU DON'T WANT TO DRINK RUNOFF WATER.

THIS IS NOT HEALTHY.

YOU KNOW, I MEAN, YOU NEED IT.

I THINK WE CAN GET IT, REALLY, IF WE JUST DO IT THE RIGHT WAY.

Tim: YOUR IDEAS AREN'T THE PROBLEM.

IT'S WHEN I GO TO DO SOMETHING,

EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT INVOLVED,

YOU ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT IT,

WHY THERE'S SOMETHING BETTER TO DO

AND WHY I SHOULDN'T BE DOING THAT.

YOU'VE HAD A REALLY *BLEEP* ATTITUDE TOWARDS ME,

AND YOU'VE BEEN DISRESPECTING ME.

AND I'VE BIT MY TONGUE.

AND I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY, WE'RE A TEAM.

WE STILL HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER, WHICH IS FINE.

BUT IT'S ALL BUSINESS.

I LIKE TO HAVE EVERYTHING PREPARED, YOU KNOW?

I MEAN, WE ALREADY SCREWED IT UP ONCE

BY NOT BEING PREPARED ENOUGH. A LOT OF EFFORT...

WELL, I WAS PREPARED. I WAS PLENTY PREPARED.

AND I ALSO ASKED FOR YOU TO NOT DO IT WITHOUT ME.

ALL YOU WOULD HAVE HAD TO SAY IS, "HEY, SHANNON,

LET'S GET THIS FIRE GOING." -ALL RIGHT.

SO WHAT ARE WE *BLEEP* TRYING TO RESOLVE HERE?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT REALLY.

IT'S A WASTE OF *BLEEP* ENERGY.

LET'S JUST DO THE *BLEEP* FIRE.

Shannon: YOU NEED FIRE. YOU NEED IT TO BOIL WATER.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S DEFINITELY MOUNTING TENSION HERE.

*BLEEP*

WE GOT IT.

I'M SO RELIEVED, SO RELIEVED.

NOW WE HAVE FIRE. WE CAN SAFELY DRINK WATER.

MM.

HEY, NAKED MAN. WHAT DID WE JUST DO?

WE STARTED A *BLEEP* FIRE.

THAT'S RIGHT.

WE'RE PARTYING.

Tim: I THINK KEEPING THAT FIRE GOING IS THE ONLY THING

THAT WE HAVE IN COMMON AS OF NOW.

Shannon: I WOULD SAY MY STYLE OF SURVIVAL

IS DON'T REST UNTIL IT'S DONE.

SO I'VE BEEN WORKING SINCE SUNUP.

HE'S BEEN LAYING AROUND SINCE SUNUP.

HEY, CAN YOU JUST GO GET SOME FIREWOOD OR SOMETHING?

Tim: I DON'T FEEL LIKE IT.

YESTERDAY WAS THE OFFICIAL LAST DAY

OF ME PUTTING IN A FULL DAY'S WORK.

I'M JUST TRYING TO CONSERVE LONG-TERM ENERGY.

I DON'T EVEN REALLY WANT FOOD. I JUST WANT TO KEEP HYDRATING.

I THINK, EVENTUALLY, IF SHE DOESN'T CHANGE,

SHE'S GONNA BURN HERSELF OUT PRETTY BAD.

AND IF SHE WANTS TO GIVE ME *BLEEP*

ABOUT LAYING AROUND ALL DAY, I DON'T REALLY GIVE A *BLEEP*

Shannon: I'M GONNA TAKE THIS STRING OUT OF THIS ROPE

AND GET A NET GOING SO I CAN GET SOME FISHING DONE.

DO YOU WANT TO GO CUT THOSE SABAL PALMS?

Tim: I REALLY WANT A DRINK RIGHT NOW,

AND THEN I'LL GO DO IT.

I JUST FEEL THAT HE'S UNFAIRLY FLOATING THROUGH,

SITTING AROUND, RESTING, SLEEPING.

IT'S REALLY FRUSTRATING TO WATCH THAT.

I'VE HAD SIX NIGHTS OF NO SLEEP.

I'M HUNGRY, YOU KNOW?

HE DOESN'T REALLY EAT ANYTHING, AND HE'S A BIG DUDE.

SO BASICALLY, I GOT TO GET THINGS DONE.

NOTHING.

Shannon: CAN I DRINK IT IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO?

Tim: I'M GOING TO DRINK IT.

I'M JUST WAITING FOR IT TO BE COOL ENOUGH.

WELL, WHY DON'T YOU GO GET SABAL PALMS

WHILE YOU'RE WAITING FOR IT TO BE COOL ENOUGH?

-I DON'T FEEL LIKE IT. -TIM, COME ON.

YOU NEED TO FREAKING DO SOMETHING.

Tim: I THOUGHT THIS CHALLENGE

WOULD BE A LITTLE MORE ENJOYABLE,

YOU KNOW, WITH NO ONE BREATHING DOWN YOUR NECK.

I'M A 28-YEAR-OLD MAN. I CAN TAKE CARE OF MYSELF,

AND I'VE BEEN DOING SURVIVAL LONG ENOUGH

TO KNOW HOW TO DO THINGS.

SHE'S SUCH A BOSS.

Shannon: I THINK MAYBE A BETTER PARTNER FOR TIM

WOULD HAVE BEEN, LIKE, THE MALE VERSION OF ME.

HE CAN'T HANDLE A CHICK BUSTING HIS BALLS.

WHAT THE *BLEEP* TIM? THE FIRE'S ALMOST OUT.

YOU HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING TO IT.

YOU HAVEN'T EVEN, LIKE, PUT A LOG ON IT OR ANYTHING.

Tim: REALLY? YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVEN'T SEEN

WHAT I'VE DONE, SO...

YOU HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

TELL ME. SHOW ME.

I'VE BEEN KEEPING THE FIRE HOT

WHILE YOU'RE PUTTING WET ROOTS ON IT.

OKAY.

I PUT WET LOGS ON IT ALL NIGHT LONG,

AND IT STAYS GOING.

WELL, GOOD FOR YOU.

CAN YOU JUST PLEASE JUST GET SOME FIREWOOD

OR SOMETHING, DO SOMETHING?

NOT RIGHT NOW, NO.

*BLEEP*

*BLEEP* NEVER SEEN ANYONE SO LAZY.

-I DON'T WORK FOR YOU. -I KNOW.

YOU DON'T WORK FOR US. YOU DON'T WORK FOR THE TEAM.

I UNDERSTAND. -RIGHT.

YOU DON'T.

WELL, WHATEVER MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER, SHANNON.

IT DOESN'T REALLY MAKE ME FEEL BETTER.

IT KIND OF, LIKE, SUCKS, YOU KNOW?

HEY, I'M THINKING ABOUT COLLECTING SOME PALM HEARTS

SO I CAN HAVE SOME ENERGY TO DO THIS.

YES, MA'AM.

I REALLY JUST WISH THERE WAS NOT A CONFRONTATION AT ALL.

AND THAT'S WHY I HOLD OFF SO LONG.

I HOLD OFF AND HOLD OFF AND HOLD OFF.

AND FINALLY I'M LIKE, "DUDE!"

HIS SURVIVAL IS DO AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE,

SURVIVE BY THE SKIN OF MY NUTS

AND, LIKE, BEACH OFF OF HIS PARTNER, BASICALLY.

Tim: WHEN YOU'RE CONFINED TO A SMALL AREA

AND YOU HAVE SOMEONE BELITTLING YOU,

YOU KNOW, AS STRONG AS A PERSON YOU MAY THINK YOU ARE,

IT'S STILL GONNA AFFECT YOU A LITTLE BIT.

I'M GONNA GET RID OF SOME OF THIS MUD.

IT'S TOO HARD TO WALK HERE.

WHY DON'T YOU GO GET SOME PALM?

I MISS MY FAMILY MORE THAN I CAN EVEN PUT INTO WORDS.

I FEEL VERY, VERY, VERY DOWN RIGHT NOW.

SO I'M JUST GONNA BE A LAZY BUM AND JUST DRINK WATER

AND TRY NOT TO OVER-EXERT MYSELF.

Shannon: TIM AND I ARE JUST NOT TALKING.

WE'RE JUST, LIKE, SEPARATE PEOPLE.

OH, MAN.

Shannon: WHEN THERE'S TENSION, IT MAKES YOU KIND OF,

YOU KNOW, LIKE, "GRR."

I'VE SPENT EVERY HOUR OF THE DAY WORKING AND DOING STUFF.

AND SOMEONE'S NOT PULLING THEIR WEIGHT.

I DON'T WANT, LIKE, THAT KIND OF TENSION IN MY LIFE.

IF WE HAD A BETTER PARTNERSHIP RIGHT NOW,

I WOULDN'T BE HAVING TO EXPEND SO MANY CALORIES ALL BY MYSELF.

I'M, LIKE, ALWAYS ALL, "GO, GO, GO," YOU KNOW?

"GO, GO, GO ALL THE TIME."

I HAVE TO REST, TOO.

I CAN'T HANDLE THIS AMOUNT OF STRESS.

I JUST WANT TO EAT,

AND MY PARTNER DOESN'T WANT TO DO HIS SHARE.

I'M SO TIRED.

GOD, I JUST WANT TO EAT.

I WAN SOME REALLY FREAKING HUGE AMERICAN FOOD.

I REALLY MISS MY WIFE.

LIKE, ON A WHOLE DIFFERENT LEVEL THAN...BEFORE.

SUCKS.

IT'S LIKE WE'RE BOTH ALONE OUT HERE.

IT'S ROUGH, ROUGHER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE.

IT REALLY IS, YOU KNOW.

IT'S LIKE LIFE AND DEATH, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

IT'S LIKE YOU'RE FEELING YOUR BODY JUST DIE,

YOU KNOW, AND, LIKE, WASTE AWAY.

Tim: SHANNON'S NOT DOING GREAT.

YOU KNOW, SHE'S VERY WEAK.

I WAS LAYING THERE, AND I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT LIFE,

THINKING ABOUT MY BEAUTIFUL FAMILY.

THIS IS NOT THE MAN I AM.

I'VE FINALLY HIT AN EPIPHANY.

I LET GO OF ANY NEGATIVE ENERGY, RESENTMENT,

HATE TOWARDS SHANNON.

IT WASN'T GETTING ME ANYWHERE,

AND IT CERTAINLY WASN'T GETTING BOTH OF US ANYWHERE.

AND IT WAS ACTUALLY MAKING THINGS

A LOT MORE DIFFICULT FOR MYSELF.

WE'RE A TEAM REGARDLESS OF ALL THE BULL *BLEEP*

IN THE MARINE CORPS, WHEN TIMES GET TOUGH,

YOU DON'T LEAVE SOMEONE BEHIND, ESPECIALLY A GIRL.

SHE WORKED SO HARD THAT SHE DESERVES

SO MUCH MORE THAN I'VE BEEN GIVING HER.

I'M GOING TO DEFINITELY CHANGE.

WE STARTED THIS TOGETHER AND WE'RE GONNA FINISH TOGETHER.

THERE'S NO POINT IN ME GOING AHEAD, YOU KNOW.

THIS IS A TEAM EFFORT.

ALL YOU GOT TO DO IS SHOW YOURSELF TO ME,

AND I'LL DO THE REST.

I REALLY WANT TO CATCH SOME FOOD FOR THE BOTH OF US.

SO I'VE TAKEN IT UPON MYSELF TO GO HUNTING.

YOU'D THINK A JUNGLE WOULD HAVE,

JUST, WILDLIFE CRAWLING EVERYWHERE.

IT'S MOSTLY JUST BUGS.

I MEAN, I FEEL LIKE I COULD KEEP GOING.

BUT MY BRAIN'S JUST LIKE, "GO SIT DOWN."

THIS SUCKS.

I THINK I'M GONNA HAVE TO WORK ON TRAPS.

AS FAR AS PRIMITIVE TRAPS GO,

I LIKE TO USE THE FIGURE 4 DEADFALL --

THREE PIECES OF STICK HOLDING UP A HEAVY OBJECT WITH BAIT

ON THE END, CATCHES SMALL GAME.

IT'S PRETTY SIMPLE.

SHOULD AT LEAST BRING SOME FIREWOOD BACK.

WHOA!

THREE HUGE GRUBS FOR ME AND SHANNON.

THIS IS A REAL GAME-CHANGER.

GRILL THEM UP. OH, BOY.

Shannon: WHAT IS THAT?

OH, MY GOD.

-A HANDFUL OF GRUBS. -OH, MY GOSH.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I WANT SOME FOOD.

Tim: IT JUST FEELS GOOD TO CATCH FOOD FOR MY PARTNER.

IT'LL CHANGE THE GAME QUITE A BIT.

HERE YOU GO.

MM.

WEIRD, BUT NOT BAD.

THANK YOU.

IT'S FREAKING AWESOME.

Shannon: I APPRECIATE THAT HE PUT THE EFFORT IN.

SO EXCITED TO HAVE FOOD.

I'M NOT MUCH INTO APOLOGIES

BECAUSE WE PROBABLY BOTH FEEL A CERTAIN WAY.

BUT, I MEAN, MY ATTITUDE SUCKED FOR A LITTLE WHILE.

BUT YOU GOT TO UNDERSTAND

HOW MANY DAYS I WENT WITHOUT SLEEP.

I'VE NEVER DONE THAT.

THE WHOLE FIRE THING

IS KIND OF WHAT BROUGHT A LITTLE BIT

OF TENSION BETWEEN US.

ANY TIME I WOULD TRY TO HELP WITH THE FIRE AND STUFF,

LIKE, I WASN'T DOING IT THE RIGHT WAY, YOU KNOW?

AND SO THAT REALLY DISCOURAGED ME

FROM WANTING TO EVEN HELP YOU

BECAUSE ANY TIME I PUT MY HANDS ON ANYTHING,

I FELT LIKE IT WAS WRONG.

I'M SORRY, TOO. WE NEED TO LEAN ON EACH OTHER.

LET'S JUST FORGET IT, YOU KNOW?

FORGET IT... -YEAH.

...AND JUST GO, MOVE ON, YOU KNOW?

YEAH, WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE.

THERE'S MORE IMPORTANT THINGS

THAN REHASHING THE PAST.

THIS SHOULD BE NOTHING BUT GOOD MEMORIES

FROM HERE ON OUT.

Tim: WE GOT OUR *BLEEP* TOGETHER.

WE NEED EACH OTHER FOR OUR MENTAL HEALTH,

AND IT'S GONNA HELP US STAY POSITIVE UNTIL THE END.

SO IT DEFINITELY HELPS TO HAVE A FRIEND

IN THESE LAST FEW DAYS.

BUT WE DON'T REALLY HAVE THE ENERGY

TO PUSH TOWARD EXTRACTION.

WE NEED TO GET FOOD.

DEADFALL DIDN'T WORK.

IT'S HARD TO CATCH FOOD OUT HERE, YOU KNOW?

Shannon: OH, I'M STARVING.

I AM, LIKE, LITERALLY WASTING AWAY AND STARVING.

IT WOULD BE SUCH A MIRACLE TO CATCH SOMETHING,

TO CATCH AN ANIMAL OUT HERE

AND BUILD UP STRENGTH FOR THE EXTRACTION

AND JUST BE STRONG AT THE END.

I NEED IT.

THERE ISN'T A LOT OF FOOD TO BE HAD HERE.

IT'S VERY SCARCE.

OH, MY GOD.

Narrator: TIM AND SHANNON ARRIVED ON THE ISLAND OF TRINIDAD

WITH THE SAME SURVIVAL RATING OF 7.2.

THEIR EARLY STRUGGLES OF CONSTRUCTING SHELTER

AND MAKING FIRE CAUSED TENSION IN THEIR PARTNERSHIP.

TIM AND SHANNON'S DIFFERENT APPROACHES

TO SURVIVAL FURTHER DROVE A WEDGE BETWEEN THEM.

AND THEIR ISOLATION AND LACK OF FOOD BEGAN

TO HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THEIR MENTAL STATE.

Shannon: WE'RE JUST, LIKE, SEPARATE PEOPLE.

Narrator: ON THE BRINK OF TAPPING OUT,

TIM AND SHANNON HAVE PUT THEIR DIFFERENCES ASIDE

AND ARE WORKING TOGETHER

IN THE HOPE OF SECURING ENOUGH FOOD

TO MAKE IT TO EXTRACTION DAY.

THEIR PSRs WILL BE RE-EVALUATED

IF AND WHEN THEY COMPLETE THE CHALLENGE.

Shannon: CRAB. OH, MY GOD.

I DON'T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME I WAS THIS HAPPY,

TO BE HONEST.

AH, THERE'S MORE OVER HERE!

SO HAPPY.

THREE CRABS, NOT BAD.

WELL, THAT FEELS LIKE EFFORT.

Tim: SHANNON JUST SAT DOWN WITH THREE CRABS,

A COUPLE PALM HEARTS AND SOME BOILED WATER.

GETTING FOOD WAS MUCH NEEDED,

LIKE DRINKING LIFE BACK INTO YOUR BODY.

I REALLY APPRECIATED EATING A LITTLE BIT.

SHE HELPED US OUT, FOR SURE.

THAT IS YUMMY.

OH, MY GOSH. WE'RE REALLY HAPPY.

WE PULLED THROUGH, AND GO, TEAM.

OFFICIALLY DAY 21.

Shannon: OUR EXTRACTION POINT,

THAT'S PRETTY MUCH DUE SOUTH OF US.

WE'RE PROBABLY RIGHT ABOUT THERE.

I AGREE. LET'S JUST TRY OUR BEST

TO STAY THE STEADY COURSE SOUTH.

-LET'S GET IT DONE. -LET'S GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE.

LET'S GET HER DONE, MAN. YEAH.

Shannon: *BLEEP* THIS. THIS *BLEEP* IN THE RAIN.

OH, MY GOD.

Tim: IT WOULDN'T BE OUR CHALLENGE

WITHOUT A RAINSTORM ON EXTRACTION DAY.

Narrator: TIM AND SHANNON WILL SET FORTH

ON AN ARDUOUS HIKE TO THE ATLANTIC OCEAN.

WEAK AND MALNOURISHED, THEY'LL NOW HAVE TO CONTEND

WITH A DANGEROUSLY SLICK AND TREACHEROUS TERRAIN.

WHOA *BLEEP* SORRY, SORRY.

NO, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M HOPING IT'S NOT REAL SLIPPERY AND HORRIBLE

THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH IT.

*BLEEP*

IT'S REALLY THICK HERE.

SO I'M JUST REALLY KEEPING AN EYE OPEN

FOR SNAKES COILED UP.

I DON'T WANT TO STEP ON ONE.

THAT WOULD BE A HORRIBLE WAY TO END THIS CHALLENGE.

AND BEING THAT THIS IS KIND OF NEW TERRAIN

TO US,

I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT.

STEPPING IN THIS FOLIAGE IS LIKE ROLLING THE DICE.

OH, MY GOD. ANT COLONY.

IT'S HUGE, THE BIGGEST ONE I'VE SEEN.

Narrator: THOUSANDS OF ARMY ANTS,

REMORSELESS HUNTERS WITH PAINFUL FISH-HOOK JAWS,

BLOCK TIM AND SHANNON'S PATH.

SONS OF BITCHES. LOOK AT THIS.

Tim: ALL RIGHT. JUST WALK STRATEGICALLY.

OH, MAN, THEY'RE ALL THE WAY *BLEEP* UP THERE.

THEY'RE ALL THE WAY UP THERE.

LOOK AT THAT *BLEEP*

LOOK AT THAT. *BLEEP*

*BLEEP* -THEY'RE ALREADY GETTING YOU?

OH, THAT ONE.

THOSE SONS OF BITCHES.

DUDE, LET'S GO UP. NO.

THEY'RE UP THERE, TOO.

WE'RE GONNA GET DESTROYED.

OH, MY *BLEEP* WHERE DOES IT END?

-I DON'T KNOW. -IT DOESN'T FREAKING END.

LOOK, IT'S EVEN UP THERE IN THAT LOG.

I CAN SEE THEM. -YEAH.

ALL RIGHT. THERE'S NO WAY TO DO THIS.

THERE'S ONLY *BLEEP* ONE WAY.

READY?

*BLEEP* RUN.

RUN FOR IT, MAN.

GOD, THAT WASN'T BAD.

HOPE WE DON'T HAVE TO COME ACROSS THAT AGAIN.

MY LEG MUSCLES ARE SCREAMING FOR WATER.

MY KIDNEYS ARE SCREAMING FOR WATER.

THAT'S THE WIDEST OPEN CANOPY WE'VE SEEN.

BEAUTIFUL. WOW. OH, LOOK AT THAT!

THERE'S OUR BOAT! YEAH!

WHOO!

Shannon: SEEING THE BOAT OUT THERE,

IT WAS THE MOST AMAZING FEELING

I'VE HAD IN A LONG, LONG TIME.

WHOO!

YEAH!

ONCE I SAW THE BOAT,

IT MADE EVERYTHING REAL, AND I KNEW THAT THAT'S IT.

I'M DONE.

I WANTED TO PROVE THAT I WAS MENTALLY

AND PHYSICALLY STRONG ENOUGH TO DO THIS CHALLENGE.

BUT THE BIGGEST LESSON I LEARNED,

I THINK, IS I'M BOSSY.

I DO LIKE TO BE IN CHARGE A BIT.

BUT IF YOU WANT TO SURVIVE FOR THIS WHOLE CHALLENGE,

IT'S ALL ABOUT YOU AND YOUR PARTNER WORKING TOGETHER,

CONNECTING AND GETTING THROUGH IT TOGETHER.

I LEARNED A LOT ABOUT MYSELF FROM THIS EXPERIENCE.

I KNEW I HAD STUBBORNNESS

AND AN INDEPENDENT AND HARDHEADED NATURE.

BUT THERE'S NO POINT IN HOLDING GRUDGES.

YOU JUST HAVE TO TAKE A DEEP BREATH

AND JUST GO WITH THE FLOW.

WE'RE HUMANS.

I THINK HUMANS ARE MEANT TO BE WITH OTHER HUMANS.

-WE DID IT! -WE DID IT!

Tim: WE BEAT THE CHALLENGE! SEE YOU LATER, TRINIDAD!

Narrator: 21 DAYS ON THE ISLAND OF TRINIDAD

CAUSED TIM TO LOSE 35 POUNDS.

TIM ATTACKED THE CHALLENGE LIKE A TRUE MARINE,

CONSTRUCTING SHELTER AND MAKING FIRE

DESPITE THE DIFFICULT ENVIRONMENT.

BUT HE STRUGGLED WITH HIS PARTNER'S ASSERTIVENESS

AND GREW RESENTFUL AND WITHDRAWN.

HE EVENTUALLY REALIZED THE IMPORTANCE

OF JOINING FORCES AS A TEAM.

TIM'S PRIMITIVE SURVIVAL RATING,

OR PSR, INCREASES FROM 7.2 TO 7.7.

SHANNON LEFT THE CHALLENGE 17 POUNDS LIGHTER.

HER OVERBEARING ATTITUDE ALIENATED HER PARTNER,

BUT SHE STILL DISPLAYED A TENACIOUS WORK ETHIC

DESPITE TIM'S LACK OF PARTICIPATION EARLY ON.

AS A RESULT, SHANNON'S PSR RISES FROM 7.2 TO 8.0.

NO MAN OR WOMAN IS AN ISLAND.

IT TAKES TRUST AND UNITY TO SURVIVE NAKED AND AFRAID.
