Man, that is bloody hot.

Oh,

-You all right? -No.

I think I've said that like six times.

We got to get to the shade.

I'm trying.

This hike is ridiculous.

It is so freaking scorching hot today.

You know, Heather is really struggling,

and I'm... I'm pretty worried

we might not make it to the next destination.

All right, we've got some thicker stuff coming up.

Hopefully, we're gonna get some shade again.

Did you hear something?

-Did you just hear a human? -Yeah.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

-Hello? -Hello?

-No! -What?

Over here in the woods.

We're coming to you.

Hello?

Just the man I'm looking for?

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God, I'm so happy to see y'all.

God, it's about time. Come here.

Come here.

I'm so glad we're not alone.

We thought we weren't gonna see anybody.

-Me too. -That's Nathan.

-Hi! -Hey!

Nathan's home.

We had a feeling people might still be out here,

but it was so exciting to actually see other people.

I can't believe there's five of us left.

-I know. -I know.

We literally thought that we were like...

Are we the... Is there other people out here, though?

We haven't seen anyone. You guys are the first ones we've seen.

I didn't even know I was gonna make it here.

Like, when we were just coming,

I started vomiting so bad across the grounds, like...

She was like... - Like, I'm throwing up and walking.

-Aw! -Yeah.

I'm, like, feeling really weird.

Just get some sleep.

And I'm just going to try to find some food.

As Adam recovered from a parasitic infection...

Oh, my God.

...rising waters compromised the camp's resources.

This is a good indicator that...

I think we need to, uh, move on.

I caught an eel. Yeah!

And his decision to keep food to himself...

I was pretty lucky to catch an eel early this morning.

Say what?

You were pretty much sleeping until my last mouthful.

And then at that stage, it was like, I couldn't stop.

...may have put their partnership,

and Heather's challenge... I'm struggling here.

...at risk.

I truly believe if he would have shared those fish with me,

I'd be a lot better off.

We have a seep well that's ready,

if you need some fresh water right now.

That'd be great. Thank you.

-You guys wanna come see our shelter, like... -Yeah.

...sit down and... - I haven't really eaten much...

-and I am hurting for it, like I need to eat something. -Oh!

Yeah, I haven't eaten in six... five or six days.

Also, we've got a bunch of nispero fruit up here,

but as far as like, fish or anything,

-we've got zero protein. -Okay.

We caught caiman, but we were done within three days.

-We finished the rest of ours this morning. -Yeah.

After arriving at their new camp...

There we go.

This is a pretty good spot right here.

...Terra, Lynsey and Nathan are now 28 miles

from the Day 40 extraction point...

-See anything? -Mmm-mmm.

Nothing but babies.

...but failed to find signs of significant protein...

We can't live off of this.

...until a hunting excursion...

-Caiman. -It's a caiman.

Argh!

...led to a much needed team win.

We are literally the most epic team in the whole entire world.

Yeah, I'm definitely gonna need some water 'cause I like, when I...

as soon as I get in the sun 'cause of the heat stroke,

now I'm puking.

Did y'all wanna go to the seep well right away?

Our seep well is just right over here, too.

I think I just need to come sit down

and have a few sips of that water and just...

Yeah.

We don't have a fire going 'cause it's hot as hell.

All right.

I just wanna have water before I start throwing up again.

I'm gonna go get you some fresh water from the seep well.

All right. I'm really sick.

We finally have two more people,

Heather and Adam.

They're both in pretty poor shape, though,

after the long hike here, so not ideal by any means.

I don't feel good.

I'm not getting any better.

This challenge is a lot harder than I anticipated.

Are you doing all right?

-I'm still sick. -You need water?

We've got some water.

I'm so afraid if I drink, I'll just throw up again.

You need water, babe?

Yeah.

Here's some fresh water. It's all you, babe.

-Thank you. -You're welcome.

Oh. Phew!

After having such a super long, exhausting hike,

I want to try to get Heather down to the water to cool off.

But just walking through the sun,

I think is dangerous at this point.

Like, I am nervous about Heather.

I'm feeling really nauseous right now,

so I'm not really saying too much.

No, you're fine. Just relax.

I can totally understand.

Just drink some water.

Eat some fruits, if you feel like it. Just chill.

This challenge, this proving grounds,

it's about being able to overcome adversity.

But I just can't seem to shake this nausea,

and definitely been taken down,

you know, like a fat man on a seesaw.

Like, it's really quick and fast.

That's a brutal hike,

but I'm not giving up.

Let me get this little hand.

We still have another hand?

Little hand meat.

Little hand... hand bones, hand meat.

Get this, like, thick stuff right here.

That's some good hand meat.

We'll rip a little finger off.

-Want a finger? -Okay.

One week after joining forces...

...Kaiela, Malorie and Shell...

We got him there.

...secured their largest team win of the challenge.

We got our caiman!

Our big papa caiman!

...leaving them protein rich...

We're gonna eat good tonight.

-Ooh! -Tastes like heaven.

...but still 31 miles from the Day 40 extraction point.

It's amazing how much we've accomplished

and how much we've been through so far.

I got some more moriche!

Awesome. You're amazing, girl.

I start thinking about... like,

"Man, we have enough meat.

We have fruit."

You know, we're good.

We're all pretty healthy right now.

Maybe this is a good time to move.

You know, we have a lot of meat guys, um...

So what are you guys thinking about moving on?

-We have a lot of way to go. -We just scored a lot of food,

and we have ways to go...

We're gonna have energy now.

We know there's another big water source

that we can go to, but it is,

um, kind of a trek, I feel like.

-Yeah, a trek. -Either way, we have to start making our way that way.

-For one day. -We have to start making our way.

We can't just do it all at the end.

-Yeah, we can't. -You know, it's gonna... It's gonna weigh heavy on us.

Yeah, I think that's super important for us to utilize

the energy from this massive caiman win for us,

to harness that into another...

-I agree. -...large, kind of, trek for us. Yeah.

So, we're in agreement?

We... we're gonna leave?

Yeah.

I'm incredibly happy that we're finally moving

because I've gotten very antsy in this place.

Not that I don't acknowledge and appreciate everything

that it's provided for us, I do.

I just think it's definitely time, um, mentally

to be moving on to a new location.

All right, so this is where we're at, right here.

-This is extraction. -Yeah. Yeah.

So, our next water source is right here.

-I'd say roughly 10 miles. -Yeah.

The nearest viable water source

will take the team ten miles northeast

through open grasslands and thick jungles to a large lake,

a move that will still leave them 19 miles

from the Day 40 extraction point.

-I'm gonna... -It's gonna be rough.

It's gonna be rough, so we have to really hydrate.

-Yeah. -And be ready to go first... first light.

Y'all ready for it?

-I'm so ready. -Hell, yeah.

It is 40 miles in 40 days,

and we have a lot of ground to cover.

So with us feeling good and all this meat in reserve,

it's time to go.

We have a 115 moriche.

Wow, that's so much.

Yeah.

So, we got a long day tomorrow.

We wanna gather all of our stuff that we're taking,

so all of our tools,

like our fish basket that we can reuse as a backpack,

and then use again as a fish basket when we get there.

There's a couple of little tiny fish in here.

But we don't need them...

'cause we got lots of food.

We wanna hydrate as much as humanly possible.

We want to eat a good amount of our jerky,

and just fill our bodies up.

It's important before we leave

to set ourselves up for success.

Tribe goes from three to five.

And I'm kind of worried about that

with the way that Heather came in today.

But now we're all on the same... team.

We're all on the same page.

So Nate and I, we're just doing our best to get the shelter shorn up,

so that they've got a place to sleep tonight.

I'm fetching this part that just had those wilted plantain eels.

I think just closing the shelter off

will be better just for everyone.

-Here's our new vine coming in. -Okay.

Tie this one anywhere

-around where it's coming in at. -Okay.

You can't really make it a whole lot bigger here,

and we don't wanna really expend the energy to do that,

since it's so far to go to get the moriche palm fronds

that we would need to extend it.

And so, I'm just trying to make it more comfortable.

I'm hoping everybody fits in here.

Uh, we'll see what happens.

Let's go to the water.

Let your body get rested.

Let your body cool down.

This is so cold.

And just... it's cold, but...

if you just sit and slowly let the rest of your body get in,

and just... it will... - I'll let my body get used to this.

-'cause this thing can shock my body even worse. -Yeah.

We just start doing everything we can do

to cool down Heather's body temperature.

-Ah, it's freezing. -Mmm-hmm. It is cold.

-Yeah. -And then put your hand on your face and do this.

It'll drop your body temperature real quick.

I start to feel better

when Lynsey brought me to the river.

I'm not saying I'm over the mountain,

but I'm definitely feeling a lot better.

Nowhere near as bad as it was at all.

You're, you know... you're not eating every day.

This is not normal living situations.

Plus this hike, plus being hot, no food.

It was amazing to have Lynsey there.

I think it was awesome to have someone there helping me struggle.

I'm not really used to that.

I mean, Adam, he wasn't caring about anybody surviving, except for him.

I'm making a little bed platform.

You know, it's just gonna be just enough off the ground

that when it rains, you stay dry.

And hopefully, it keeps some of the bugs away.

So, I cut up some palm fronds,

the stalks.

After that hellish hike, I am absolutely exhausted.

If I'm gonna get back in this game strong,

I've got to get that sleep, get some food.

You know, like, I need a big win.

So, that is gonna be my priority right now.

Ta-da.

Somewhat of a bed.

A lot better than it was.

Hell, yeah, it is.

The thatching job, I think we did a good job of it...

And already, Adam has by far

the best sleeping spot in the shelter.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, let's make a plan.

See how we're gonna sleep tonight.

How much rube you got back there, man?

-Me? -Yeah.

This much.

Okay, it's like, I'm just trying to picture in our heads,

how we would all lay to keep us all comfortable.

Do you wanna sleep on the ground like us,

-so there's... there's a lot of room -Not really.

Adam squished Nathan and Lynsey on top of each other,

and then he put slats down to have a bed, which none of us have.

We're in somebody else's camp.

You're in their shelter and you're taking up a third of it.

Okay. I'm gonna run over to the seep well

to fill up on as much water as I can.

Okay.

Snake!

-Snake! -Snake!

-Where? -What?

-What? -Where you at?

Snake!

-Snake! -Snake!

-Where? -What?

Where you at?

Over here. I just lost him.

-Does he have a knife? -No, I didn't have anything.

-I was just headed to the seep well. -I got a knife

-and a stick. -I got a knife, and I got a gaff.

-Where'd you lose him at? -Right here in this tree.

Did it go up it?

I just... he just disappeared when I tried to circle around it.

-Okay, what is it? -A dark green about...

inch-and-a-half around and maybe four-and-a-half feet long or so...

Sounds like an emerald tree boa.

He's got to be big then. Where the is he?

So he just disappeared into the leaves.

If it's an emerald tree boa,

they're elusive as hell because they're thin,

they're green, and they go up into the green,

and camouflage themselves immediately.

Extremely hard to see.

I actually used to own an emerald tree boa.

Now you're gonna eat his cousin.

So once the snake goes up the tree,

we're kind of... But we're still gonna look around.

Do you see anything?

No.

Eh, it sucks.

It's a frustrating feeling when you're so damn hungry,

and you know you're so close to food,

your mouth instantly starts to salivate.

A green snake, in Columbia...

should be easy to find.

Okay, well, now this has got me hungry.

It's pretty tough, even though I didn't see the snake,

knowing that it slithered away...

yeah, that would have been a... a good snack.

That's, uh, gone now.

I used to own... over a 100 snakes.

And when they want to camouflage, they camouflage.

They know what they're doing.

We're probably not gonna find him.

Good eye there, Nathan.

Maybe I'll spot another one.

Yeah, this will help with at least shading my eyes from the sun,

-reflecting the sun. -Yeah.

We're here to take on the badlands.

Caiman killers are on the move.

Coming dressed for success.

-Awesome. -All right, let's go mud up.

Well, good morning, Columbia badlands.

Today, we trek out.

We are packed up, our fire is out,

and we are ready to go.

Definitely helpful in protecting from the sun.

Yeah, I think this is our peak physical day

to really tackle this portion of this hike.

We have gorged ourselves on caiman and moriches,

drank plenty of water,

but this is gonna be the furthest

that I've traveled, you know.

Ten miles, and this is gonna be the first time

that they've traveled since day one.

So, it's gonna be... exhausting,

and we're really gonna have to pace ourselves.

All right!

-All right. -Great.

Put some miles down.

Hell, yeah.

The trek's definitely gonna be a lot harder for us.

You let us know when you need to switch off, okay?

We're carrying more items with us,

so a lot heavier weight.

We're a lot more exhausted and sleep deprived at this point.

So it's gonna be very challenging,

All right, and let's, uh, communicate with each other

on how we're feeling and if we need breaks.

-Absolutely. -And if you need a... a break

-from that backpack, you let us know. -Okay.

-Bye, Shelter! -We'll miss you.

Bye, caiman-killer cave!

We'll miss the caimans, but not the cave.

Nope.

Is everyone okay?

-Yeah. -Okay.

Yeah, we're doing great.

Yeah, I'm good.

I don't have any concerns about any of us.

I mean, I'm not... it's probably not gonna be easy.

I mean, of course, it's not easy.

Nothing is easy here.

But I know that they're strong women.

I know I'm strong. And we know how to suck it up.

And I'm hoping for the best.

But at the same time, ready for the worst.

We had a really good sleep last night.

I feel like I've sprung back after getting some rest and some water.

And now we're gonna go off this morning,

and try to find some stuff to eat

'cause I know we got to figure out what we're gonna do

to feed everybody.

I want a protein.

I need a protein. It's not a want.

I mean, I think we all want it.

I... my body needs it.

-All right, do you wanna go look for some caiman? -Yeah.

Take the bow.

With this area around the camp,

it's been kind of... a little unlucky,

except for the one caiman.

So, with as little game as we've seen here so far,

we're going to have to go out and investigate

and try to find that a big win,

that we actually need for our tribe.

We have all bases covered.

Like, I'll do the fishing rod.

-We've got bow... -Mmm-hmm.

...we've got MacGyver.

Like, we... we're covered.

Everyone needs meat, so...

you know, hopefully the three of us together,

we can make it happen today.

That would be awesome.

Me and Terra and Adam, all decided to go

exploring further than we've gone before

to the south of the jungle,

just to see what lies over there.

I haven't come this far yet, uh, this way,

so it's good to...

come out and see what's out here.

Yeah.

Totally different environment altogether here.

Being with the new group is absolutely awesome.

Terra is another avid bow hunter.

So, I love bow hunting. I think we're gonna get along great.

And Nathan is a MacGyver.

He is so crafty and handy.

I'm so pumped to be out here with him.

You know, hopefully, we, you know, find something decent.

We've got to.

-I'm... I've got to get out of the sun. -Yeah.

Ooh!

How are we feeling, ladies?

Feeling... okay. It's warm.

-It is hot here. -It is hot, but...

-Could be worse, right? -Could be worse.

We're chugging along.

'Cause I think we're keeping a good pace right now.

You know, this heat can change the way you feel.

And you can go from feeling amazing

to feeling absolutely terrible in a matter of minutes,

depending on how long you're in the sun

and how much you're exerting yourself.

Just let us know when we need to swap out, Mal.

Okay.

As long as we're checking on each other,

I think we can manage.

Is that nispero tree up there, Kaiela?

-Um... -I see a flower.

Yeah, it is, right there.

-Awesome, we can check it. -Yeah.

What we got here?

Woo-hoo, nispero heaven, baby.

Nice.

-Good find. -Ooh, look at that.

All right, you wanna bring your bucket over here?

Absolutely. Fill me up.

-Oh, yeah. -That's wonderful.

Nispero trees. More nispero trees.

Everywhere, all around us, nispero trees.

-Want one now? A little boost? -I'll take one.

-For trail boost? -I'll have one.

Oh, God, they're everywhere.

We kinda go into collect mode

and have to stop at every single tree,

and then it turns into well, you know, we've got enough.

And then we start eating some

just so we can make more room for more to carry.

I'm gonna grab ones that are even kinda questionable,

-so we can sort it through later. -Yeah, sure, yeah.

No, not good. Mmm-mmm. No, no.

All right. Come on, guys.

'Cause this cornucopia is getting...

Heavy?

-Heavy. -Okay.

We're gonna use a lot of energy

and a lot of calories throughout the trek.

We couldn't ask for any better.

Nispero, nispero, nispero

♪ Nispero

-I would like to maybe make some snares. -Okay.

I don't like not contributing.

So, if I can at least set some passive traps out,

at least I feel like I'm trying.

I just haven't seen any tracks or dens or anything.

While Nate and Adam and Terra go on their extravaganza,

Me and Heather are gonna take this time to try to find food,

even if it's passively setting traps.

Thinking about setting 'em, like,

in each one of these trees.

Just for birds, like, you know what I mean?

-Like... -Just of limbs and things?

-Yeah, yeah. -Or, like, around?

Yeah. No, fixed snares straight to where it's going.

-So, fixed snare to a tree. You know what I'm saying? -Right.

All it is is a simple,

just slip knot braid, tie on, boom.

Most of the snares that we're going to set

are pretty much like a fixed snare.

You can get a lot of 'em done very quickly.

It's just a quick, like, overhand kind of slip knot

that you do at the end of your line.

And you fix it to a pole and you kinda set it up.

The key is that the animal will go through it.

How are the slip knots?

Um, and then that way, it's some... it's tightening, and that's...

And as they try to fly away, it just gets more and more tight.

This isn't one that will loosen.

Let me do something high on this branch.

Yeah, you do high.

-I'm gonna go low on this one little thing. -Okay.

You can do a lot of these

and, uh, it doesn't take a whole lot of energy.

We gotta try something. I'm, I'm starving.

Hunger is a hell of a motivator.

I like that Heather has this "go go go" attitude.

And I like that

even though Heather clearly needs to rest

and needs water and to stay out of the sun, like,

there's a "no stop" in Heather.

And Heather's like, "I'm not just gonna sit around."

There's no excuses.

Heather wants to go and make traps and do things,

and it, it lights a fire under my ass.

I got one right here on this branch

that a bird just might land on.

-Hop, hop, hop. -Catch its foot.

That's all right.

We've got a lot of fruit sources,

but protein is very scarce.

So, we're trying everything.

And honestly, I think it's exciting

that I've got another female out here with me.

Like, in all my previous challenges,

I was always with two guys.

And I think it's awesome.

So,

this is the exact location where we killed the caiman at.

Are you kidding?

We've got a line set out here

just above the water with caiman guts on.

Nothing's touched it.

Look, right here.

Look right here.

Check your staff and see what the depth is on that.

I'm feeling it's a river otter hole or something.

Probably capybara.

They'll do 'em by the water like this too?

-They're amphibious. -Oh.

As the world's largest rodent,

the adult capybara can grow well over 70 pounds,

and is known for its salty pork-like meat.

Sweet, let's set a trap for this guy then.

That's right.

Capybara look like rats, but it is an aquatic animal.

This is right here on the water.

I mean this, this is a perfect home for it.

This is literally it's ideal location.

So, he's probably off swimming, living his best life,

not even knowing that we've got him set up.

Because it's another protein source

and it's something that would be a huge win for us.

He's gonna come out probably sniffing.

Yeah, come out or come in sniffing. One of the two.

I don't think he's in there right now, but he will be.

-Yeah. Good. -Okay.

-So, we got it set. -Got it set, man.

Well, that's better than not setting anything.

We'll see if we can catch.

Okay.

-Got a creek. -We have any water?

This, uh, could be promising.

The plan is

we're following this little offshoot of the creek into the jungle

to see where this river starts basically,

or where we can get maybe a bigger body of water.

Oh, yeah, guys, I can see a huge big water hole over here.

Nice.

Is this, is this the biggest waterhole

you guys have seen in this area?

Yes, it is, by far.

It's murky.

I don't know.

I reckon there's gotta be catfish or...

Oh, absolutely.

...something in here, you know?

Hopefully, maybe an eel.

It might be worth having a bit of a look around

and see what we can...

See, it looks pretty deep in here.

I can always hope for the best.

Time for me to get a line in

and, um, see if I can make something happen.

We'll take a walk too.

I can tell Adam is strong.

Adam's strong willed and strong bodied.

He wants to fish. He wants to hunt.

I'm thinking I might just test out this spot here.

It's like, looks... looks pretty deep just in here.

I'm happy to have more hands on deck to get things done.

Because we've got our work cut out for us in this location.

I'm really hoping something will pay off.

Pretty swampy and marshy over here.

Yeah.

Pretty thick jungle.

This is snake country for sure.

-Yeah. -Oh, yeah, definitely.

Let's be super careful.

Keep an eye out for snakes, guys.

If you grab a vine, it might not be a vine.

Yeah.

Talk about thick jungle, huh?

-Oh, yeah. -Oh, yeah. This is pretty thick.

It can be hard to navigate and easy to get lost.

It is nice and cool in here though.

Yeah.

Whoo!

All right, you wanna swap out, girl?

Is your back doing okay?

No, I'm doing okay, guys. I'm just, uh, yeah.

Okay.

Kinda don't wanna put it on you guys,

'cause it's... it's kinda heavy, and, uh...

Well, I don't mind either. So, you just...

-Don't over exert yourself. -Hmm.

Yes, I don't mind either.

I know how you are, so please speak up.

You've been carrying it for a long time.

All right, let's take a break real quick.

-Yep. Let's do it. -Yeah.

These are the proving grounds.

And I will push myself harder.

I will push myself to a limit until my body says, "I can't."

That's when I will take a break.

How are you doing, Mal?

I'm good now, I just needed a break.

You know, that thing was, I just, it's heavy, so.

Are you ready?

Yeah.

-My stomach's a little... -Yeah, mine too. A little itchy, right?

-Yeah. -Somebody needs to hold the ginger.

I don't know if it was, uh...

too many nisperos?

I don't, I don't know, too many sugars?

But I can definitely feel in my stomach,

something weird.

Yeah.

My stomach starts to hurt, I don't know,

probably 30 minutes after we first find those,

that first nispero tree.

I ate a handful of 'em

and ate some that maybe were not ripe enough.

Um, and then some that maybe were a little too ripe.

You're doing all right, ladies?

-Oh, yes. -Yeah.

-You doing okay, girl? -Mmm-hmm.

-Let us know when you slow down, okay? -Okay.

Oh.

-Hold on, guys. -Yeah, for sure, for sure.

Ah, Jesus Christ.

Sorry, it's, like, more and more...

We're already in it, dude.

-Oh, my God. -What the is it?

-You know? -You ate something bad.

I'm fairly certain.

Just got, like, crazy gas pains, man.

I almost wonder if I should make myself throw up.

Yeah, that might make you feel better.

I don't know.

It's so painful.

This is bumming me out, man.

-Don't let it get you down. -It's okay, Kaiela.

I know it's, like, kinda scaring me a little bit.

The pain is enough to make me cry

and enough to make me immobile.

This could be it for me.

This is bumming me out, man.

-Don't let it get you down. -It's okay, Kaiela.

I know, it's like, kinda scaring me a little bit.

You're gonna be okay.

I hope so.

You're gonna be just fine, girl. I promise.

Here, smell this.

-That smell good? -Mmm-hmm.

Smell it again.

Aromatherapy.

It should be bottled and scented and put in the store.

Mmm.

Okay, let's keep going.

-Feel better? -Yeah.

You got it, Kaiela, we have so much faith in you.

-Yeah. -You're such a strong woman.

You survived 12 days alone.

Yeah, but I'm a little bitch

when it comes to stomach pains.

It's okay, you just gotta work your way through it.

-You know? This will pass. -Yeah.

Every time I am able to burp,

it relieves immediate pressure on my stomach.

Oh.

But almost immediately after I burp...

-Hold on, guys. -Yeah, for sure, for sure.

...that pressure starts to build back up,

and that's when the sharp veins are happening.

Excuse.

We got it.

Yeah, we'll see.

Yeah, now you got it.

It's slow going with Kaiela's stomach.

We're just really hoping that the walking and movement

can help work whatever is going on out of her system eventually,

and it might take some time.

You okay, girl?

-Yeah. -You need a little break?

It's fine.

I'm very concerned about Kaiela at this point.

I'm worried that she's gonna pass out on us.

I'm worried that she's pushing herself too much.

Yeah, hold up.

Okay.

Holding.

But you know, I mean, she's doing it though.

She's still traveling, she's, she hasn't given up

and it doesn't seem like she's gonna give up.

She's a lot stronger than she thinks she is.

Ugh.

-There we go. -I'm a lady.

Such a lady.

At this point, I don't really have an option.

And so, if that means I just gotta take 10 steps at a time

and stop, then that's what it means.

And I would have to be pulled out of here

on a stretcher for me to, to leave.

There's no way that I, I would quit

Anybody ever referred to you saying ladylike?

No.

Yeah, nobody's referred to me that way either.

Here they are.

Finished product of the Croc mocks.

What do you think?

Those are rocking, man. Those are pimpa-delish.

Now they match a little bit more too.

I like the way you did the criss-crossy on top.

It almost looks super posh.

Lynsey's amazing.

That's what I really think.

I think that she's the caregiver in the group.

They're quite fabulous.

She's a mother. We have a lot of stuff in common.

And she's focused on community and sharing.

So, she is someone that I know I can trust.

So, since nobody's around,

um, the thing that's really bothering me is,

you know, that heatstroke really could've caused permanent damage to me.

-Yes. And it could still be hanging on to you. -And...

Yeah, and, you know, I don't know if you know this, but Adam,

he was using my fishing gear at night

and he was going fishing and catching fish, like, a lot of fish.

And he never shared any of it with me.

He would just catch fish with my gear and then eat it.

-That's not right. -No.

Well, like I told them here, like, we share everything.

I'm honestly a little bit shocked.

Even if I was mad at one of my teammates,

I would still share with them.

I would wake them up in the middle of night

and be like, "Yo, I got some food for us."

If I would've had that nutrients,

I really think my body wouldn't have run down

and I wouldn't have had the heat stroke.

And so, I think he caused me to have almost serious damage

because of his selfishness.

Do you need to have a talk with him about it then?

It's something that I'm just gonna stay aware of.

-So, if you hear me say something... -Okay.

...then it's probably I've had enough.

-You know, I'm putting my foot down. -Okay. Okay.

It's important I point out,

because this is something I've had to endure, and...

And especially if it's bugging you.

Like, it does... I don't want it to affect you on a survival level either.

-Well, it did, it almost did. -Yeah.

It actually almost, you know, it affected my health.

Yeah, I would not be happy about that.

And I'm sorry that you've been mistreated like that

-'cause that's not fair. -Yeah.

I don't like that that was done.

I feel like that's sneaky.

I feel like that's not caring.

And so, I am keeping that in the back of my brain.

And if I did see those kind of behaviors here,

I would simply be like,

"Dude, we're... We are a sharing family."

Like, this is what we do.

We don't... We don't take people's the middle of the night.

We share. And it's just not cool.

I know.

We gotta just try to keep remembering that we are a naked family.

Hit the tree.

I like it, it popped flat like a pancake.

Nothing. Nothing.

-Actually surprises me. -I got nothing.

I'm surprised, even, like,

there's a lack of small fish trying to get my bait.

Huh.

I haven't seen a single track, like, at all.

It's disappointing.

We've been out here for a couple of hours,

looking around and, um,

you know, there's just nothing happening.

And, um, we're, we're, kind of dumbfounded on this.

Seeing anything good over there?

Not a single track.

I don't see any movement of anything real.

-Uh, Adam, is that worm still on there? -Yep.

They haven't touched one. That's highly unusual.

Especially when we've been finishing with worms at the other spot,

they were gone instantly.

I mean, this seems like the biggest body of water around here.

But if there is anything decent in here,

like, it could take time.

We might have to, you know,

leave a bait in for a while until it can find it.

Think the passive lines is the best bet.

But if we don't get anything tomorrow,

I would say, don't bother with it.

Okay, we got one line set.

-I'll just leave this rod here. -Okay.

Might as well.

Bit of a dud trip.

At this stage in the challenge,

we have to be so much more careful

with how much energy we're putting out to get rewards.

And it seems like a hell of a lot of energy out for the hike

for no return just yet.

So, we're really unsure about this spot now.

But just to be sure,

I'm gonna leave my line set overnight and come back.

And I think that will be the gauge

whether this spot's really worth coming back to or not.

If this isn't completely fruitful, man,

-we gotta, we gotta beat feet. -We've gotta go.

-We gotta get on the road. -Yeah.

Like, we, I feel like Heather and I only just got here.

-Yeah. -But from what we're seeing,

I think it's already time to go.

Yeah. Yeah, I would literally leave from this spot,

-go to camp, pack, head out. -Yep.

I'm ready.

I, uh, I want that win.

And if it's not gonna happen here,

-I wanna go where it is gonna happen. -Yeah.

Yep.

-Let's get back. -All right, yeah.

It's gonna get hot.

And now, we gotta hike all the way back.

You got it, girl. We're almost there.

-Are we? -Yes. Yeah.

-You promise? -Promise.

-Where is it? -That way.

I can't see it. How do you know?

-I know it's there. I promise. -Mmm. Mmm-hmm.

I do feel it working its way through my body.

Getting downwards, southwards.

Good. I'm glad to hear that.

-Oh, buddy. Okay. -Yeah, you got it.

Almost there.

We're seeing a break in the trees.

Mal and Shell definitely picked me up when I'm struggling.

They are checking in with me constantly.

Encouraging me to keep going and that I have it in me,

and they are a wonderful support system for me out here.

Look at all those trees, guys.

-Oh, those trees are looking good. -Yeah, look at that.

I bet you that's the lake.

-Those big trees need all kinds of water. -I hope so.

All of a sudden,

we come across this big, thick jungle area with big trees.

Like, we have not seen trees like this.

These trees are huge. Just like, wow!

Damn, these trees are thick.

-Wow. -It's beautiful.

So, yeah, we got nispero right here. Another nispero.

This is totally different from where we were at.

What kind of... Is that a fruit right here?

-Where? -What is that?

Don't tell me that's a mango.

Hold on, let me look.

-No way, it's a mango? -Yeah, it is.

-No way! -Oh, my God! A mango?

-Oh, my God, this is it! Let me fetch it. -This is perfect.

Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God.

This is my favorite fruit.

-Oh. -Oh, my gosh.

No way. Mmm!

Oh, my God.

Freakin' mango.

I'm talking about this, like, changed our day.

It's like the most amazing thing ever.

It tastes wonderful. It's sweet, it's juicy.

That'll actually help with whatever's going on too.

Mango is great for digestion.

To literally bite into the most ripe mango I think I've ever had,

everything around you melts and nothing else matters.

And it's an incredible feeling,

especially after not having something like that for 28 days.

It's, it's incredible.

Such an amazing treat.

-Yeah. -All right, Kaiela, come on.

Let's go see what's over here.

Oh, my God, that was incredible.

Hey, I think that's the lake, guys.

Whoa, there's a lake, guys!

Yeah, I told you I found one.

-It's a lake! -Whoo!

-Whoo! -All right! We made it, Kaiela!

-Kaiela, we're here. -Thank God.

-See, I'm not lying. -Yes.

Mmm, oh.

-Wow. -Oh, my God.

-This place is incredible. -Wow.

This new location appears to be very lush,

and I'm already excited to see

all of the different vegetation here,

a lot of different edible fruits.

It seems like it's a fairly large body of water,

so we're hoping there's larger fish.

With all of those amazing resources here,

I think we're gonna thrive.

-We made it, guys. -This is beautiful.

This is my least favorite part.

-Picking a spot. -Yeah.

What do you think about coming in here and...

-Ow. -Ooh, yeah, kinda swampy there, huh?

-Damn. -What do you think?

No.

Yeah, I think it's gonna have to be a little bit higher ground.

Yeah.

Well, at this moment,

we walked down to the lake and it's really marshy.

Very marshy, uh, we can't build right here.

The grounds can be wet the whole time.

We need high ground.

Up there by the mango trees would be a good option,

'cause it's at least in the tree line.

And the bugs won't be as bad, right?

Yeah.

Today we put in a lot of miles

towards our 40 miles and 40 day track,

and we are exhausted.

It took a lot out of us.

But now we have a lot of work ahead of us,

because it's getting late

and we need to start building shelter.

Well, this kinda looks like there's a little clearing in here.

Is there any rain coverage from the trees there?

-Yeah, a little. -There are ants.

Yeah, this is some kind of a mound.

Ooh, that's ants.

Yeah, it was killer.

-This is like an ant hill. -Lots of ants.

Oh, yeah, it's going to be Ant City.

I'm so over the bugs.

Jesus Christ.

We're going through hell.

We just have to get off the ground here.

That's the only thing, guys,

because there's all kinds of leafcutter ants out here.

I've never made a raised platform shelter,

so not my expertise.

There is going to be a lot of trial and error with this.

I don't think any of us have ever built

a platform shelter before.

All I've ever done is lean-tos and teepees and bomas.

So I can put a stake in the ground right here

that, uh, something can rest on here,

and it can go to there.

And then from here to there to that tree right there.

Right there.

To build their elevated platform,

the survivalists plan to use existing trees and y-poles

to support the frame,

which will be covered by slats and palm fronds

with enough clearance for a fire underneath.

I think right now just start the rig,

that is probably the most important thing.

-Okay. -Got to do as best we can.

Okay.

All right. Let's start harvesting.

And the time to cool off, I reckon.

Yeah. Just one time.

Hi, team.

Howdy.

-Any luck? -Nope.

Not what we were hoping.

If you all want, we're heading down to the water

to cool off for a little bit.

We'd love to talk to you guys about the whole thing.

Okay.

Yeah.

-I'm about done. -See you's down at the water.

Yeah, we can come down in just a minute.

As a team, as a new tribe, we want everybody involved.

We want everybody's opinion.

So we need to powwow about the decisions

of how we're going to spend our energy,

whether we're just going to stay around here

or trek to the next location.

Over this little berm,

there was like an offshoot of a bayou.

Pond type like thing...

Imagine this, but about 10 times as wide.

Oh.

Did you see fish in the water that were big enough to eat?

No. We didn't see any fish.

I set a line, we'll wait and see.

But, I mean, like, I know we only just got here yesterday,

but like I'm ready for a big win,

and I'm not sure if this is the area for that.

Okay. Yeah.

We all know we're going to have to leave soon.

We've got literally two weeks left,

and a ton of miles left to go.

But at the same time, like, even though

Heather feels a little bit better,

like heat stroke, it's still in our body.

It's still... Yeah, it can linger for a few days.

So it probably would be best before we leave

to try to get a big protein.

So at least we can...

It could be a waste of time.

Realistically, like, I don't know

how much more there is to explore in this area.

Like, my gut feeling is that, like,

we're all going to need to prepare hydrate,

-especially Heather needs to hydrate. -Yeah.

So that's a huge factor, but yeah, like, ultimately,

like, not trying to pressure anyone,

but I would leave right now, - We need to go.

I want food.

Okay.

I'm actually really starting to get upset.

Right now, my health is at risk.

I got very, very sick.

I know that I can't make that hike just yet.

I expected or I hoped my partner, Adam, had my back,

but he really does not care about anyone but himself.

Realistically, like, I don't know

how much more there is to explore in this area.

Like, my gut feeling is that, like,

I would leave right now, I want food.

He really does not care about anyone but himself.

I know no matter what, I've got to recover,

and you know, it could take me several days

to get back to normal.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

-You need to just relax. -Yeah.

Yeah. Because that's mostly important.

We're going to have a long trek, you know what I mean?

We've got a lot further to go.

So that's what I've got to be prepared for.

So our catch 22 right now is

that hike would not be good for you at this moment.

But putting a ton more energy into this place

when we still got so much to do,

unless we get a giant win,

this is going to burn us out.

You know, I sympathize with her

because Heather and I both have had

issues during the hikes.

It's hard to breathe.

My heart won't stop racing.

And I can't hear much.

And I think both of us are kind of worried about this hike.

But I don't think this area

is where we're going to find that big win

that we actually need for our tribe.

And if we stay here much longer,

you're really kind of just putting everybody at risk.

At least if we give it a shot tomorrow,

that can be our one good haul or nice shot.

We can do that. Yeah.

Okay. So I guess the game plan is

we'll go out tomorrow as a tribe.

Check the traps.

You and I will go check the line.

If we don't think anything's worth it, we need to go ahead.

And we need to take off.

-Okay. -All right.

That sounds good to me.

If I had to leave tomorrow,

I'm going to do whatever the group... like we have to do.

I'm not one that's going to be an albatross

across the tribe.

But yeah, I'm pretty pissed about it.

How are you feeling?

Hmm.

I'm here.

I can kind of tell by that look on your face,

like your lips kind of get all pursed,

and you get quiet whenever you're looking like

you're going to pass out or puke.

Yeah.

If I'm quiet, I'm either pissed or I'm sick.

Yeah.

I am worried about the hike.

I know that Heather is really nervous

about getting heat exhaustion again.

But at this point, we've done trapping.

We've tried fishing.

We've tried everything.

We pulled out all the stops,

literally all the freaking stops possible.

So hopefully we can get something big before we leave.

You all right?

This is just a difficult situation right now.

I'm great.

Timber.

We are planning on building a lean-to

but the raised bed is number one for us

because the ants here are terrible.

Ow

God damn it, dude.

Bullet-Bullet ants!

Uh-huh.

I hate ants!

Hate them!

So our first goal is to get off the ground.

The second goal is to get shelter over our head.

Let's try looking at it just to see

what we've got on our plate.

Obviously not that long.

Today we're getting not super far

in our shelter build, which doesn't surprise me.

We had a huge trek.

Big ass tree.

And we may or may not accomplish the shelter today.

What's wrong, Kaiela?

I've had four ticks on me

in the last 10 minutes, just so you guys know.

Yeah, I have two.

They've been crawling all along.

Yeah, the bug situation here is, uh, I would say, worse.

Um, I mean, we're in the jungle.

There's a lot of trees,

and leafcutter ants are everywhere again.

I'm having deja vu.

And the mosquitoes are out constantly throughout the day.

So bugs are definitely thicker in the jungle.

I feel like this was kind of a bigger task here

than we should have probably done for the night.

Everybody feeling okay?

Tired?

Yeah.

Uh, my energy levels are depleting,

to be honest, for cutting more

and then... yeah.

And the bugs in here are terrible already.

At that moment, I'm like, "No, no.

I can't let her be like this. I got to fix that."

Dropping down the forest, girl.

Yeah.

So I get to work.

You know, the girls had already stopped,

and I'm just working my ass off.

I'm like, "No, I got to make this work."

We don't have a place to sleep tonight.

We don't have anything right now.

Lots of good ones back here.

We need to keep eating to keep our energy level up

and to get to our next location.

We have a large supply of nispero fruit here.

So as long as we're here, my main strategy

is to focus on nispero because that is the easiest way to survive.

You literally just walk around, pick them up,

and they are fat, juicy, and super sweet.

One of these probably doesn't have

very many calories, maybe 10.

But if I eat 300 a day, there's 3,000 calories right there.

Easy.

Also, I prefer the ones that are rotten.

They have these little larva in them.

You can see them wiggling around in there.

I'm not sure if they're from a beetle or a wasp.

They're very small larva.

And those larva, their bodies are made of protein.

So just by eating the nispero fruit,

I'm not just getting the calories that I need.

I'm getting a significant amount of protein too

by eating all the larva from that many nispero fruits.

However, not everyone likes them.

So I think group as a whole definitely needs more protein

because they don't need nearly as many nispero as I do.

So we need to either find more food for the whole group

or we need to move along.

What's up, Nate?

How'd you do, Nathan?

Huge nispero haul.

-Oh, goody. -You all hungry?

Yeah, I'd love some.

Wonderful Nate, of course, got some nisperos

because he's Nispero Nate.

But the reality is, is that we still need some protein

before we hike out of here.

And we need to drink as much water as we can

before we have to leave this place.

Okay, so we need to hydrate, hydrate.

-Time to hydrate. -Let's go.

Let's go.

Fresh water from the seep well.

Oh, wow.

And there's a tarantula.

Holy

Look at the size of that bloody thing.

I guess we're going to go check out the seep well

and see what the status is on that.

Yeah, it's been dry for a few days.

I think it's probably a good idea

to see where we're at on it.

Yeah, it's still low as hell.

And there's a tarantula.

Yeah, there is!

Holy

Look at the size of that bloody thing.

Ha-ha, my spear came in handy.

Oh, wow.

-We got a little bit of food, guys. -Yes.

-All right. -Yes.

Whoo!

Might not be the big win we needed, but man,

he's going to be a little... a little land lobster.

Yes.

All right, tarantulas on the menu.

Terra Tarantula Tamer.

Good job. That is absolutely awesome.

No hesitation.

It was just bang, straight on the tarantula.

-Unreal. -Keep this fire going.

For me, whether it's a big win or a small win, it's a win.

And you can eat every part of the tarantula,

the legs, the abdomen, the thorax, the eyes,

the fangs, everything.

As a team, as a new tribe,

it's kind of a little bonding moment.

-Cheers. -Off the table,

down the wall, pass the spider, and bless us all.

-Cheers. -Thank you.

Surprisingly meaty.

It does taste like crab.

Crab of the jungle.

I'm thankful for it.

It's a little tiny bit of protein, so that's good.

A little pick-me-up and excitement.

Spider steak.

Yay. Thank you.

However, for five people,

we can't live off of this kind of thing.

My buddy's going to thank you for that, Terra.

Now we just need more, many, many more.

Worker bees.

Those are little worker bees.

I'm over it.

As day eight's coming to an end, um,

we do not have our shelter finished, and we knew that.

But to be able to lay down on something

that we all built together for the first time,

and it be structurally sound, um, is amazing.

It's not the most comfortable thing in the world.

Uh, it is a bunch of sticks.

But I think it's going to be something

that's going to provide us all

a little bit of comfort out here

to be able to get off of the ground

and away from the bugs.

Mmm-hmm.

Yeah.

Yeah.

-Okay. -Let's do it lady.

Bring it on.

Come sit up here with us.

Yeah.

I actually feel kind of motivated now to, like,

make this thing bitchin'. Thanks, guys, for pushing me,

even though I was getting negative about it today.

-Oh yeah, no worries. -Yeah, this is a bad one.

-Come here. -Yeah I'll come with you.

For the each of you, you were just, like,

snugged up in an armpit.

Mmm-hmm.

Oh, my God.

What?

I know. It's because we have two fires going.

It's making it miserable in here.

It's not passive-aggressive.

Look at her. She's obviously miserable.

Just say, "Hey, Adam, I don't want a second fire.

Just you don't have to, like, do it under your breath.

I didn't say anything under my breath.

Very loud about it.

Like look at her.

Look at... not me. Look at her, Adam.

Say it to my face.

Look at her, Adam.

You guys, it's fine. Guys.

It's fine.

Just... yeah.

I don't know, it's got like, just... I don't...

Look at her.

That's all you got to do is just look at her.

I'm asking you, Heather, not...

Well, I mean, you need to rethink it.

Look at other people and see what it's doing to people.

Just look at her.

All right, well, that's different.

I think the buns are just bad.

It's not... it's...

Maybe we just have to be miserable for a little while.

I don't think we want to go look for some caiman.

Yeah.

I don't know what your plan was.

I was sort of thinking, I don't know how far

you've walked down the waterway that way.

We'll just walk down there.

-Yeah, absolutely. -And if we see one, just grab it.

To be able to survive 40 days in the Colombian Badlands,

I feel like we all have to work together as a group.

But last night sucked.

We were all up quite a bit.

Heather had gotten irritated at Adam

about us having two fires at one point.

And I'm like, don't put me

in the middle of it, man.

We're all hot and all itchy.

And like, it was just too much.

We're hungry. We're tired.

Temperatures are heated.

And I'm not saying that this is

not going to be ever discussed.

But after last night, I didn't want

to add on to heated drama today.

Let's see if we can find something to eat.

That would be awesome.

It was a rough night.

I could definitely tell that we're all starting to, you know,

struggle from the lack of protein.

Everyone's getting a little bit snappy.

Um, might have been a few little arguments.

You know, everything's all good.

But we can tell that we all need protein.

Badly.

Yeah, hopefully we find something decent.

I just hope it's not another

waste of energy and calories, honestly.

Yeah.

So Terra, Nathan, and I are heading back to the swamp

this morning.

Set one line.

I'm going to go back to check that.

And sometimes that pays off.

Sometimes it doesn't.

We've already spent so much energy searching for food.

If we're going to stay here, we need that big win.

Do we want to walk down there

and check your other snare first?

Yeah, we can do that.

Yeah, nothing's touched the bird traps.

I'm surprised the birds haven't even touched it.

I haven't even seen birds, to be honest with you.

God, this water is so clear.

Look at the clarity.

There's literally no life. It's like a Dead Sea.

No aquatic life.

Looking around, this really is not

a protein-rich environment.

Want to just go in here?

Yeah.

Let's go check that den.

Anything?

No.

Still exactly as it was.

Damn it.

This is the place that protein forgot.

Is this where people come to die?

The Green Hell.

We have expended all of our energy here.

We've done trapping.

We've tried fishing.

We've tried everything.

I mean, all we can do is say dang it and take our knowledge

and move it on to the next location,

because we've got to go.

Nothing. There's still a little bit

of worm on the hook.

That is nuts.

I've never had a worm left on the hook after like 24 hours.

I can't believe that.

That's insane.

I think we found our answer to the swamp.

We've come back, checked the pole.

There was still a worm on the hook, so...

Are we going to set lines here

or use any more energy coming here?

No.

We checked the line this morning,

and the worm was still on the hook.

That's a pretty good indicator to me that... Nothing.

Yeah, that we need to rest

and we need to get out of this area

and find somewhere where we can actually get some protein.

Yeah, that the Dead Sea has more activity than that area.

No activity at all. Nothing's been touched.

So even when I was throwing up, I was still walking.

I didn't stop, you know?

If that's what is required and we've got to go,

then, you know, saddle up.

Let's roll.

Yeah, I'm feeling a lot more confident today.

Uh...

Yesterday I was kind of discouraged.

I wasn't feeling well, but definitely woke up

feeling a lot more optimistic

about getting it done today, so...

It was nice to be able to stretch out last night.

Um, it got a little cold, I will say,

but we were all able to get a decent amount of sleep

and it didn't rain on us,

which we were really concerned about.

I think I was the first one up this morning,

and I'm excited to continue working on this thing

with the girls.

-You okay? -Yeah.

Okay.

So, I was saying, the way we want the canopy,

will we want it in front like this or this?

What do you think, guys?

Lower in the front or higher in the front?

Higher in the front, right? Yeah. Higher in the front.

With two Y-poles at the rear of the platform

and two taller Y-poles at the front,

the team will create an angled canopy

covered in palm fronds,

allowing rain to fall off the back of the shelter.

There's a lot of plans for the shelter today.

We need to make sure we reinforce it,

so I'll continue adding more support systems to it.

We want to make this canopy.

We want to make the canopy over it,

because we need protection from the rain.

So, the plan is to work on the framework for the canopy

and then finish it off tomorrow.

All right, so this will be... I need to cut it down,

but this will be our first Y-stick into the ground.

-Nice. -For our canopy.

What do you think?

-I think it sounds great. I like it. -Yay!

Nice. Very good.

This shelter that we're building,

this is our home together.

The other shelters, they were made with other partners,

but this is pretty cool

because we're making this one together.

This shelter is us. It's the three of us.

Let's take a look at the map, guys, just to know

exactly one last time what we're doing.

-So, we're here. -Yep.

We gotta go here.

East.

Going east.

But we're looking at at least 10 miles here.

Currently 28 miles from extraction,

the tribe targets a large body of water

ten miles away to the east.

A move that will put them roughly 20 miles,

just halfway to their Day 40 extraction point.

Putting some ash on.

A little bit of a...

natural sunscreen.

I'm pretty nervous and excited to go.

Nervous to step into the sun today

but excited to move on to new territory.

We need better resources.

Okay, and we need to split the water up into two pots, too.

We need to do that right now.

I'm not prepared.

I don't think any of us are prepared to do a 10-mile hike right now.

But I'm a little bit nervous about Heather with this hike, to be completely honest.

Heather didn't sleep with a last night,

and Heather just had heat exhaustion.

So our whole thing is going to be

rest when we see shade, get heather water,

and just go slow.

We need to really be smart on this hike.

-Let's go. I'm ready. -Hell, yeah.

-Ready! -Pumped.

Goodbye, shelteroo.

See you later. It's been, uh, it's been a pleasure.

Camp Caiman. Goodbye.

Bloody hell, it's just freaking scorching, aye?

This is bloody hot.

Oh, yeah. It's gonna be an undertaking.

Jesus Christ, already.

I am concerned about my own health. But...

Ouch!

...there are no shortcuts here.

You gotta do 40 miles.

There's no way around it.

There's no detour.

You've got to go through it. All 40.

-You all right? -Yeah.

There's a big spider right there.

I got spider webs all in my face.

There's thorns right there.

The vines are definitely tearing on my-my thighs.

We've got our ants here.

Everybody doing good?

Yeah, maybe just slow down just a tiny bit, though.

Okay.

The jungle's really thick. Everything's really sharp.

Everyone's having to move at a snail's pace.

It's so thick.

Every step we take, we've got to think about snakes,

spiders, bullet ants,

and a million other things that could take us out.

Oh, my God.

Look at that spider web above your head.

Yeah, that's awesome.

-Whoa. -Yuck.

While most spiders are solitary

and aggressive toward one another,

some species form social colonies.

Working together, they build vast, interlocking webs,

strong enough to catch larger prey,

including birds or even bats.

I don't know, but it's the biggest one

I've ever seen in my whole entire life.

I'll walk this way.

I'm not going under that thing.

Sick.

Swampland.

Great.

Damn.

I feel like we've walked probably two miles so far,

and we come across this river.

And, so, I'm just thinking like,

this doesn't look good.

We can go around. It's gonna take forever.

I think we need to go this way.

Get a little bit wet. Y'all okay?

-Sure. -Let's do it.

Keep an eye on the lookout.

I did hear like, a huge big splash down there. So...

Watch out for big, big guys when you're going in.

Apparently we're swimming, y'all.

That's if I don't drown.

Apparently we're swimming, y'all.

That's if I don't drown.

We get to this river that has to be crossed,

taking all of our stuff and we have to swim across it.

And we're all anticipating it to be grueling as hell.

How deep is it?

-You're not gonna touch the bottom. -All right.

Uh, I'm just gonna do a couple of trips across.

Take one item at a time

so I don't get anything underwater.

The cast net is so heavy that I can't carry everything all at once.

But another problem... our limited supply of water.

If the pot is dropped in the middle of the river,

then we risk losing the pot or having it contaminated.

That pot of water is very, very heavy.

And just try to think if I swim on my back,

I know I'm at least buoyant on my back.

So I start kicking as hard as I can,

trying to my head above water and the pot above water.

Hold on one second, bro.

I'm gonna go back across and get my spear.

Give me your hand.

Hand me stuff.

Yeah, it's pretty eerie.

You don't know what's in the water.

There's like, anacondas, caiman.

There's tons of dangers in there.

Thank you.

That looks better.

To spend all that energy

and know we still have that hike ahead...

Yeah, this is tough.

We've still got a long way to go.

Oh, my God. not only was a cold.

Phew. That took a lot of energy.

That's ridiculous. Just go on that small amount.

Looking back now, look, that small amount of space

took that much energy out of us.

Goes to show how depleted I really am.

Well, did we manage to get everything across?

Yeah. I think we managed to get everything without losing anything.

I think we should all take a drink.

Water will be fine.

I am 99.9% sure

I kept nasty water out of this.

Let's, uh, let's make like a tree.

-Leave. -Everyone good?

-Let's roll out. -Yeah.

Every mile out here is kicking my ass. It's killing me.

I'm literally getting my butt kicked with every mile I take.

But you've got to get through all the tough stuff in life.

You know, the hard way.

So just buckle up, buttercup.

This is about to get tough.

Oh, God.

We're excited to continue building our shelter.

And not only are we gonna have the platform,

but we're also gonna build a canopy

to protect us from the rains.

And the ash starting to hold

and then we can just put the dirt back into a little bit.

I think me and Mal have so much in common that

it is a bit of a mirror for me out here

to see that she just has this thing in her

that is like a motor, that she can't stop.

Timber.

This drive and this will and just this thing

deep inside her that's pushing her forward, that...

it sometimes just seems like it's-it's inhuman.

All right. I'm gonna lay down for a little bit,

and I'm gonna get up and work my ass off.

But right now, my stomach hurts.

Yeah.

I feel like I need to throw up.

Oh.

Oh, dear.

All right. That's called morning here.

Yeah. I thought I was going to have time to lay down.

No. Like, I just, like,

came coming out and like, I looked like the Exorcist.

So I don't want them to see me

'cause I'm like, literally throwing up everything in my stomach.

We don't know what's going on with her stomach.

We know she's been having issues pretty much this entire time.

They've come and gone in waves.

Do you want me to try and go catch some fish

to put on your stomach instead?

No, girl. You're good. I'm fine.

Mal is our hardcore fisherwoman,

but, um, she needs to take better care of her body.

She needs to be resting.

And hydrating and not doing anything.

I don't want to put it all on the girls.

I don't want them to have to take care of me.

I don't want them to have to carry my weight

because there's a lot of work to be done around here

and we've got to get to it.

I see in her eyes that she's exhausted.

I see that she's not taking as many calories yet.

I don't want her to feel like she needs to work.

But I also understand

that need and desire in her because I have it, too.

And she's happy. Yeah.

She's-she's a workhorse.

Did you think it was gonna be this hot?

No.

Rocky as hell too.

Oh, God.

We are well into our hike.

It's not an optimal time to be doing this.

The sun is nearly zenith.

And it is beating down here. This close to the equator,

the UV just burns into you.

Heather, are you doing okay?

I'm-I'm here. I'm definitely in pain, but I'm making it.

Just remember, if yous need water,

don't hesitate to pull up in the shade, hey,

'cause we don't want to... We don't want to dehydrate.

Heather's struggling, you know she's feeling it.

But you know what? We're all in the same boat.

We've just got to really dig deep and push through.

This is why they call this place the proving grounds.

I need to get some water when we get to the top.

Yeah. We need to stop up here at the top

and just wait for a second. We all need water.

-Okay. -Okay.

I need some water and my lips are starting to purse.

And I'm feeling a little bit dizzy.

We've walked at least four miles,

and I'm a little bit nervous about Heather

with this hike, to be completely honest.

When a person has had heat exhaustion once,

they are susceptible for it to come back.

And with this sun being really high

and we're not having much cloud cover right now,

that's something that we're really gonna have to be aware of and watch

'cause I don't wanna lose a team member.

This hike is excruciating.

Every single mile out here, I feel like it's killing us more and more.

Can we get under the shade for a minute?

It's hot, we're tired.

This is a lot of miles on our feet.

We have no food, really, in our bodies,

we're probably severely dehydrated.

This is the hardest thing that I've ever done in my life,

and I'm sure Heather is feeling the exact same way.

You know, hopefully, you know,

we haven't got far to go.

But it's that hot. I think we just need a quick little breather

and a quick little break, and then,

you know, we've got to do what we can

to make sure that we get there.

I'd rather take breaks and make it

than not take breaks and not make it.

Yeah.

Uh, I think the last hike. You know,

unfortunately, I wasn't able to eat

all the fish that we had with the team.

Adam and I... Adam had caught some fish at night

and we didn't eat together.

So I think it gave him more of an advantage

where it may have put me in a deficit

as far as nutrients go.

It could have actually put me in a heat stroke that I had,

and maybe that impacted me a little bit more.

So I'm-I'm just here.

I feel like a zombie, to be honest with you,

and I know I've got teammates, so I can't let anybody down.

But I'm just kind of going through the motions.

I had no idea she felt this way, you know?

Yeah. At nighttime, I was eating a few catfish,

which didn't seem like a very harmful thing to do.

I wish Heather had've said more.

But I'm gonna be honest. In the beginning of this challenge,

I really did feel like I was doing majority of the work.

So it felt fair for me to just do a little bit of catch up.

Yeah. Not like you just...

You can't predict these things.

If I had've known, yeah, for sure I would have...

I would have saved more fish, but,

I really, really, really needed them at the time.

I had nothing in the tank.

You know, looking back, if I didn't do that,

maybe I wouldn't be here right now.

You know, you've gotta put the oxygen mask on yourself

before you can give it to someone else.

And at the time, I knew that it was...

I was getting pretty close to getting extracted,

probably tapping out for lack of protein

and lack of body fat.

So I did what I had to do to survive, you know?

So...

It's gonna take some time to recoup from this one.

Let's go.

Yeah.

His response today was, I mean,

pretty pathetic, in my opinion, you know.

A "sorry" would have went a long way.

But instead, he's trying to claim

that he needed it more than me, you know.

No, you were just greedy,

and you only cared about yourself.

And you put me in a very...

dangerous situation.

I don't want Adam to be painted like this bad guy

because of one bad decision.

I would like him to apologize, and then we can all move on.

That's what I would hope he would do.

I literally feel like my brain is boiling.

That might have been kind of a dick move,

but right now, it doesn't matter.

Because this place is beyond brutal.

If you aren't getting along with your group,

that group starts to divide,

and we can't have that in a survival situation.

And you're not out here to do anything other than stay alive.

I don't know about you guys.

I've never built a platform shelter before.

I've always envisioned it.

Exciting. And if we do end up with any guests at any time,

if they want, they can make another little platform on the bottom

and it can be bunk beds.

-Whoo-whoo! -Yeah, they could.

You guys won't be able to pee off the shelter

if there's somebody bunking down there.

I know, right?

-That'll be a bummer. -We both do.

-You pee off the shelter too? -Yeah.

Well, I just like, got down and like, under it, over there.

I just hung my butt over there

-and I just peed. -Oh. Perfect.

-Peed right off it. -Yeah.

A canopy? Canopy?

A canopy?

Can I pee?

-Can I pee? Can I pee? -Can I pee?

What you thinking, Kaiela?

You just go "Y" on a "Y" with that?

Or a triangle with that or what?

My partners and I have very different survival strategies,

which is totally fine.

I do truly think that as a team we complement each other.

Um, I'm more of a slow and steady.

Um, they're more high energy,

you know, getting things done quickly, fast.

So, they have more of a propensity

to wear themselves out and or become ill unfortunately.

All right. Break time.

I'll work a little longer,

and then I'm probably gonna take a little break

'cause, um, I am feeling a little bit nauseous.

You know, my partners are hitting a bit of a wall.

They've got some health issues, some energy troubles

and no worries there.

They're gonna rest up and feel better soon,

and in the meantime, I'm just hoping to be able to explore

and find different fruits, berries,

medicinal plants and trees, vines,

and hopefully that can help Mal

with the stomach issues she's been having.

These look like oyster mushrooms.

Yeah.

I wish I had studied mushrooms before we came down here.

But I only know North American mushrooms.

Um, I can only make guesses

at which ones I can eat and which ones I can't.

But with mushrooms, you don't wanna... mess around.

So I guess, yeah, I think this one's probably edible.

I won't-I won't mess around with eating it.

See if there's any wild pineapple down this way.

What is this?

Like ginger. This might be actual...

Oh, my goodness.

It looks like it anyways.

I'm familiar with this exact ginger because it grows

in a variety of different patches

under live oak trees in my farm.

Malorie could desperately use something like this in a tea.

That's what that is.

It's ginger, folks.

Wasn't even looking for ginger right now,

but this is what happens when you go exploring in the jungle.

Hey, guys.

Hi, guy.

Uh, just coming in from doing some exploring.

What you got? What you got?

I found ginger. So I'm making us ginger tea.

And I got us berries for lunch.

Awesome. You're amazing, girl. Thank you.

Oops. Some of them got mushed.

Feels amazing to know that us three girls got together

and we've developed a bond to where we're family.

And we stick up for each other.

We help each other, we care for each other.

We got some water in the pot,

and we can get started on our tea.

Ginger tea. Ooh, ooh.

Just what the doctor ordered.

-Ginger, ginger. -We want some ginger tea, please.

There is a possibility that there is nobody else out here

and that we are the last three standing.

And, you know, if that's the case,

we'll be just fine because

we'll have all the resources to ourselves,

and we're more than capable, we've proven that.

We're-we're powerful together.

Bloody Colombia.

We could probably bloody walk on the surface of the sun,

and it's not this hot.

I thought Australia was bloody hot.

You've got to come down to the Colombian badlands.

This is bloody hot.

Just hope there a route.

This trip is gonna rip it off.

Honestly, we are all battling.

Battling, battling like this is...

This is no bloody joke now. This is serious.

I just hope we get to this like soon

because, to be honest,

we're gonna be cactus otherwise.

-How are we doing on water? -I don't know.

I don't know. I haven't really assessed the pot.

I know my pot's getting low.

There's a little bit left in this one.

You know, the sooner we get to the lake, the better.

Yeah. We hiked about somewhere between six to eight miles.

It's, uh, hard to tell because we can't take

a straight route as the bird flies.

We have to go circling through various

dry washes and canyons and over savannah hills.

So every mile out here,

the group gets a little weaker and weaker

as we exhaust energy,

and our supply of water dwindles significantly.

Suddenly these hills feel like giant mountains.

I know.

Really pace yourself. Don't push it. Just...

-steady, steady. -Okay.

Climbing every hill out here that we're climbing is so hard.

We're naked, we're barefoot.

Everywhere we go, it just hurts.

Feel like a mountain goat.

But we're gonna make it. We're gonna make it.

We're gonna make it. We're gonna make it.

Yeah. If the sun wasn't beating down so hard,

it wouldn't be so bad. I don't think.

Yeah, I agree.

I need the shade.

This is awful.

I am literally going through the...

the worst experience of my life.

I'm questioning my choices.

Wait, Terra.

-I gotta have some shade from there. -Okay.

I'm actually questioning if this is even worth it,

and I don't know if my body can handle this.

I'm sorry, guys. I'm just seriously struggling through this.

I appreciate y'all waiting and taking breaks.

I'm really depleted right now, and I feel super dizzy.

And, yet again,

I'm the smartest survivalist in the world

'cause I'm out here with the sun right up

in the middle of the sky in the middle of the day.

And, uh...

This is hard.

This is so hard.

It's really hard.

This is the hardest thing I've ever done.

And I can't quit because if I quit...

This is so hard!

We're gonna be okay.

I'm not okay.
