Yeah, this looks like a mother, for sure.

That's lightning. That was really close.

It was like right there.

We almost got struck by lightning, dude.

This is getting real.

Narrator: Deep in the heart of the Amazon jungle,

nine "naked and afraid" veterans

are tackling an unthinkable survival challenge...

To endure 40 days and 40 nights

in the most remote wilderness on the planet.

- [ Gasps ] - Aah!

Narrator: To make it out alive,

they must master the environment... [ Gasps ]

Holy [bleep]

and push the limits of human endurance.

- [ Gasps ] - [ Screaming ]

Call a medic.

Narrator: Then, for the first time ever...

What is that?

The survivalists are stunned by unexpected guests.

Oh, my god!

I did not see that coming.

Narrator: As world collide... Holy [bleep]

after eight days

in the rain-soaked jungles of the Amazon...

Matt's persistence and hunting prowess...

I hit him. I might have hit him.

Led to a huge food victory at Punta Araña.

Holy [bleep] dude!

I am king of the Amazon!

In Laguna Negra, cold, miserable nights

have left Shannon dangerously sleep-deprived.

Aah!

And Fernando at risk of losing yet another partner.

I don't think I can finish this challenge.

There's just no freaking way.

At Rio Mortal...

I feel like right now, our group is all talk.

Extreme hunger and frustration with her teammates

drove Lacey to hatch a desperate plan for piranha.

- [Bleep] - Oh, my god!

Lacey: What the [bleep] was that?

Something just touched me!

- Oh, my gosh. Ow! - Aah!

Lacey: We're hunting man-eating fish, so it's dangerous.

You know, I'm scared.

[ Gasps ] Okay.

You got it? You got him?

Hallelujah!

Check it out! Check it out!

We're eating fish tonight. Look at his teeth.

This is what we call dinner in the Amazon.

His teeth are... ow! Aah!

Oh! I told you he had teeth.

[ Laughs ]

Big ones. Look at my finger. I'm bleeding.

We need to clean that out immediately with hot water,

'cause they have so much bacteria.

Okay, well, we'll deal. I'm not gonna stop fishing.

But you know what this is? Hey, what is this?

Dinner? We're having dinner.

We got him. Look at that... perfect shot.

I almost completely decapitated him.

I got him? [ Gasps, laughs ]

He's still chomping.

Yay! We're gonna having dinner!

We got fish. Fish stew. Fish barbecue.

There it goes. We're cooking fish.

Oh, goodness.

Little bit of work, but let me tell you what...

[singsong voice] It paid off.

Mmm. Total game changer.

It's such a great feeling to have food in your belly.

These are awesome.

Thank you, Lacey.

So we ate like queens today, girl! Yeah!

We are not only surviving, we are thriving out here,

and that's how it should be.

Kick butt!

[ Laughter ]

♪♪

I feel so good today.

Giovanna: Really? Good.

Well, let me slap this together with some cordage.

I am throwing together a quick bench for us

to put in our shelter.

Do we have any more cordage?

There's this little piece.

[ Gasps ] Cordage! Good girl, lady.

That's enough to finish our fish basket.

Oh, my god.

Oh, that's the good stuff, too. Good girl.

Oh, awesome.

And there's a little more over there, so I'll go get it later.

I just want to get our fish basket in the water.

Me too.

Don't get me wrong... Night fishing's fun and all,

but it's so dangerous.

Yeah. And now I have tiny teeth marks.

[ Laughter ]

Lacey: Our night-fishing expedition was awesome.

Getting that huge thing of protein was a game changer.

Like, we were on a downhill slope.

Amber: Feels so good having that protein.

My energy is just beyond amazing right now.

Giovanna: Lacey seems like a natural leader.

Last night, we filled our bellies with fish.

It was absolutely worth all the energy we put forward.

I'm really, really glad that we did it.

Our first piece of furniture! Whoo-hoo!

I love my partners. We are totally copacetic.

I'm a giver.

I'm the oldest of five, and I'm a mom,

so I have always taken care of people.

Amber: Good teamwork yesterday.

As long as we get protein,

we can keep pushing as much as we want.

I'm gonna have to agree with you.

I'm proud of us. We did good today.

Narrator: Three miles to the north, at Laguna Negra,

Shannon and Fernando continue to battle hunger,

and for Shannon, only a few hours' sleep over eight days

is taking its toll.

Shannon is struggling with the challenges out here,

like we all are.

I feel my responsibility as a teammate

to help her in any way.

Last night, I stayed awake till 2:00 in the morning.

You did that to help me,

but you've probably slept about 20 times more than I have.

If you're not sleeping, it's taxing on your body,

and you absolutely lose your mind.

Do you think napping during the day

could make up for your lack of sleep?

It's hard to even, like, nap during the day for me.

In life, I go, go, go,

but get out into the jungle, and I just... I can't sleep.

I think with three people, it's a lot friggin' easier.

I slept like a baby. That's the only time I slept.

Fernando: Well, it sounds like, to me, it's a no-brainer.

We should go look for other people,

just to get more people so you can sleep better.

Is something that you'd leave this camp for?

But what if we get there and it's just like

this even worse situation?

I don't really want to leave this camp.

It's just a lot of effort,

and I can't imagine, like, traveling,

expending a lot more energy.

Fernando: We know there are other teams out there,

and I, personally, look forward to seeing who else is out there,

but I can tell Shannon has some reservations.

A [bleep] journey.

I don't want to go on a [bleep] journey.

A journey sounds like fun.

Yeah, it sounds like fun if you've, maybe...

We'll go slow.

Eaten like four square meals a day.

Shannon: We've been talking about this move for a long time,

and, you know, that's a huge gamble to take.

Well, it sounds like you're kind of

pretty firmly in the "stay here" camp.

I'm... but I'm not. I'm not a pessimist.

Normally, I'm very much of an optimist.

But I could be swayed if I, like, knew

we've got food, water... Everything we need.

Fernando: I really want to see other people,

but Shannon... She does not want to go.

So, um... If that's what I have to do, I'll do it.

Narrator: Six miles to the south, in Punta Araña,

Matt and Russell have been living on the spoils

of a big kill for the past two days.

Russell: Anything I can do to help, brother,

or you think you got it?

Yeah. Cut that [bleep] piece of meat off right there.

[Bleep] Pole's stuck. Right here?

Yeah, a little lower. Yeah, that's good.

First thing I did is I woke up, went over to the smoker,

grabbed some meat, and had me a snack.

That's how damn well we're surviving right now

is we're like, "oh."

Russell: We can pick what we want.

"Oh, I guess I'll take some dark meat."

I have probably eaten seven pounds of meat,

more than any group of survivalists will eat

in the entire 40 days, and that is huge.

There's multiple other people right now surviving,

and I wish I could share the bounties.

Some of this is... I mean, look at that, dude.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, stay away from that part.

You know, it's to that point where the smoke got in there,

but there's that part right there.

See that second layer? Mm-hmm.

That's the stuff we don't want to screw with.

Damn shame.

But, you know, you can't preserve meat in the jungle.

We don't have a refrigerator out here,

so that meat is gonna go bad.

It's good, or is it a little funky on top?

[ Sniffs ]

Matt: The truth of the matter is, this pig is gonna be gone,

so I would say the hunt is back on.

Wow.

Yeah, agreed.

Lacey: All right. We ready, y'all?

I'm just keeping it hot before we go.

All right.

We got some good-sized coals I feel comfortable with.

All right, ladies. Let us depart.

All right, let's go.

We're gonna head down to the river

and then make a fire down there,

heat up enough drinking water to gorge ourselves.

Giovanna: I'm worried about our coals.

We got to try to move a little faster.

The only issue is, going down there...

It makes the fire situation a little risky.

We won't be able to watch the fire back in the shelter.

I'm trying to pick my path here.

There's a lot of Clay here, guys.

Be careful. It's really slippery.

Amber: Just walking down the hill to the lagoon,

everything is so slippery with Clay, it's dangerous.

And everything we do, the Amazon has to fight against us.

Giovanna: I feel so light-headed.

I know. We need to get water.

Yeah. I feel like I'm gonna puke.

We'll get water, babe. We're gonna get it.

Come on, baby. Catch that damn sap.

There you go.

Come on. Come on.

Come on, baby. Everything here's kind of wet.

[ Wind whistles ]

[ Thunder crashes ]

Lacey: We're trying to protect this fire from getting wet.

We're gonna have to keep that fire going at all times.

There's no letting it go out, ever.

Aah!

Holy [bleep]

Wow. This is, like, pretty slow going right now.

Nice. You got the fire going.

Oh. Are you okay?

We... we need a medic!

Man: I'm just gonna put you over my shoulder, okay?

Okay. [ Grunts ] Okay.

Narrator: Medics need to relocate Lacey

to the medical tent to evaluate her injury.

I am hurting, but it's not gonna stop,

so we might as well keep going.

Narrator: The wet Clay, caused by weeks of rain,

make using a stretcher too dangerous,

forcing producers to carry Lacey down the treacherous slope.

Go real slow, step by step, okay?

[ Gasps ] Aah!

Amber: I'm a mess right now. I'm heartbroken.

She got injured for us, so that we could have fire,

so that it will keep us warm all night.

We just got to wait and find out what's going on with Lacey,

'cause she's a big part of our team here,

and... everything changes.

Right foot.

Right foot.

Narrator: Lacey may have suffered a fracture or torn ligaments.

If the pain and swelling increase,

she may need to be medevacked.

We need Lacey.

Lacey: Oh, my god.

You're almost there, Lacey. Home stretch, Lacey.

Put all your weight on your left.

There you go. Turn around.

Okay. Okay.

I'm sorry. I'm so messy.

You're fine. Don't worry about the mess.

Can you get my foot? Sure.

Here we go. Okay.

How's it going, buddy? Any luck?

Shh!

Matt: Ever since I got that pig...

I don't know if the word got out...

The pigs are gone, and I'm not sure where they went,

but right now, it's kind of like this jungle

turned into a little bit of a ghost town.

Matt, correct me if I'm wrong,

but eels like to go under the leaves, right?

The eels? Yeah.

Some of them.

'Cause I got bubbles coming up here, and I got an...

We have exhausted our meat sources.

Matt is an excellent hunter, and he was able to bring the pig in.

I'm a good fisherman.

It's like going to the grocery store for me,

that I just say, "oh, I'm gonna go catch some fish,"

and I go out there and do it.

Mother[bleep]

Matt: Russell is the kind of guy that he's very thickheaded.

We're kind of, you know, complete opposites.

Just too narrow in here.

But at the same time, we're like straight-up buddies.

You son of a bitch.

This close-quarter [bleep] ain't cutting it.

Russell: It's hard for me to cast here.

We want to get a little bit deeper out there,

but I get a little worried.

There is a fish out here that, if it sees your penis,

it'll bite it off.

Whenever you're ready, brother.

I'm feeling that... Feeling that.

You feeling it? Do it.

Ow! Ohh! Whoo!

God! Ow!

What was that? I don't know.

Shannon: These frickin' mosquitos are miserable.

Fernando: Yeah.

My hope and dream is 10 piranhas or more.

So, here's the trick.

So, you kind of swish the water like crazy, like this.

The key is, they'll pull your bait off so fast.

All right. I'll try this stupid grasshopper first.

Shannon: I'm sleep-deprived.

We haven't really eaten in three days.

You know, it's hard for me to function at 100%.

That's important out in the jungle

because there's a lot of dangers lurking around,

and electric eels might be a big concern.

You know, you don't want anything to happen

just because you're not alert.

Guess where my hook is.

Fernando: In the mouth of a piranha.

Nope. In this tree.

Definitely not easy here. It's not easy at all.

There's no... nothing given to you here... nothing given.

Everything you do, every motion you make is pretty miserable.

Oh! No, please!

looking for other groups may be our only option.

Matt: The platform we put together...

I've actually seen indigenous culture throughout the world

making these platforms out in the ocean,

and it was a way for them to elevate themselves up

so that they could spearfish properly.

Perfect.

It'll take us a couple feet above the water

and allow us to throw the net into deeper water,

where there is much bigger fish.

Actually, fairly stable.

Lady, we have to do this, anyway.

We might as well do it now. Plus, look at the weather.

It looks like it's about to rain, so...

No. I haven't heard anything yet.

We got to wait for the thunderstorms.

I think we should always assume the worst.

Before, we had three personnel,

If two agreed, the other one

should have to deal with it and suck it up.

It's kind of harder.

We don't have that third person to say "yea" or "nay" now.

I don't want us to wait and then, in a half-hour,

Narrator: On this 40-day survival quest,

all groups earn a "naked and afraid XL" rating,

or XLR, which tracks their progress,

skill, and teamwork.

Exhausted and without food at Laguna Negra,

Shannon and Fernando stagnate.

Oh, please!

[Bleep] [Bleep]

Their XLR remains at 6.0.

At Punta Araña, Matt and Russell

are energized from a big catch of fish,

and decide to set out on a mission to explore the unknown.

Something just bit the [bleep] out of my toe.

Their XLR rises to 8.5.

At Rio Mortal, after losing Lacey...

[ Thunder crashes ]

and weathering a brutal storm... Let up, storm!

The female duo's XLR plunges to 6.3.

[ Insects buzzing ]

Do you smell it, dude?

Matt: Yeah. Distinct smell of human.

Hey, right there. What's that?

That's a shelter right there, buddy.

The [bleep] it is.

Hello?!

Hello?!

Woman: Aah!

Aah!

We're looking for naked people!

- Hi! - Hi!

- What up, y'all? - Hi! You guys are awesome!

- Oh, my god! - [ Laughing ] Oh, my god!

Nice to see you there, sweetheart.

Oh, my god! You, too!

- How are you? - Oh, my god!

Giovanna: I see people! Oh, my god!

[ Laughs ] And we're so... Oh, my god! How are you?

You guys look well. Hell, yeah.

And dirty. Very. Very.

Oh, my gosh. You're so rough.

[ Laughs ] Yeah.

We really needed this.

We were struggling so bad,

and this is a blessing... It really is.

It worked out perfectly.

Amber: Where did you come from?

Uh, south.

- South. Yes. - Oh, geez.

Really? How was it?

- Check this out. - Got ourself a big-ass pig.

Oh, my. Are you kidding me?

We had to eat him... No, you did not.

Matt: Yeah, yeah. Oh, look at this gut, girl.

Oh, my gosh!

Giovanna: Matt killed a giant pig, and he and Russell ate it all.

That's just best-case-scenario kind of stuff.

Well, we haven't gotten a pig.

We've gotten a few measly fish

and a lot of vegetables and a lot of bugs.

You know, these girls have lived without protein

for the last 13 days, and you can tell.

So, if I could possibly find food

and give them the boost that I saw Russell and I get,

that would be phenomenal.

[ Chuckling ] Oh, oh, oh.

- Yeah, buddy. - Look at that haul.

Amber: [ Gasps ] Oh, my god. Look at that haul.

That is so beautiful.

Yes, sir.

- Yeah! - Gia, fish are coming in.

Sweet. Yeah.

Giovanna: Matt is this amazing primitive hunter.

And the idea of having, like, a real meal

that fills my belly

and not hearing my stomach growl all day long is just...

[Bleep] All right, look at that.

I see fish in there.

I mean, that's like a dream.

Amber: [ Sing-song voice ] It's a lot of fishies.

[ Normal voice ] I've never used my breasts

for something so secure.

Giovanna: Very functional. They all have teeth, too.

♪ La la la ♪

Russell: So, what are we doing... we steaming them?

- No. - What's going on?

We'll boil the water first, take the pot off,

and roast them. Okay.

Russell: I'm not sure what the girls are gonna be able to provide.

I haven't been around them long enough to see that.

I just hope that they're willing to learn from us

to help out and adhere to the way we're gonna do things.

Then we should be good.

These are delicious.

Good.

Giovanna: Matt and Russell are here now.

I'm feeling really good about our future.

Amber: You guys are actually thriving out here.

Now y'all are thriving. I know we are.

We joined the thrive team.

♪♪

Shannon: It just sucks being out here.

Fernando: I listen to her suffer.

She's not happy. She hates this place.

You know, I've tried everything I know.

And so, if you're miserable, it's okay to go home.

What else can we do out here besides be miserable?

Are you feeling like you may want to leave here soon or...?

Like, where... this challenge?

Like, leave the challenge.

[ Scoffs ]

It's just like this never-ending [bleep] battle...

Just to [bleep] sleep.

It's hard.

I know it's hard.

There's no shame in leaving early.

Don't feel pressure.

[Bleep]

You can't say, "don't feel pressure."

It's okay to go home.

[Bleep] You.

[Bleep] Damn it, Fernando. Don't... just don't talk.

♪♪

[ Sniffles ]

I can't believe you're telling me to go.

No, I'm just trying to...

That's how I feel like, if you keep saying that.

I keep feeling like you're telling me to leave.
