MANU: I've said it from the start.

When climbing this mountain,

it is all

or nothing.

* *

Seven days ago,

the adventure began for 16 everyday Americans...

You must travel together.

You'll only be as fast as your slowest member.

...to prove if they are worthy of reaching the summit.

-You good, Pati? -(grunts)

PATI: This mountain is kicking my ass.

This is insane.

-(grunts) -MANU: In claiming

the million-dollar cash prize,

they've had to combat Mother Nature...

NICK: Holy crap.

You can't see a thing.

MANU: ...the mountain...

I'm trying to climb!

MANU: ...and each other.

-This stays between us. -Mm-hmm.

I'm on that train.

MANU: Last time...

Raise a hand if it's Robert that you want to vote

off the mountain.

MANU: ...with the help of Jeannie,

Dennis survived another vote.

JENNYE: Apparently, trust means nothing

because we kept Dennis, who lies about everything.

The Korean Cockroach survived another day.

MANU: Tonight,

with seven days left on this journey...

-BECKYLEE: Let's do this. -...ten remaining,

and over $870,000 in their packs...

-JEANNIE: Come on, Pati. -(shouts)

MANU: ...their quest will become

more cutthroat...

I can be ruthless if I need to be.

MANU: ...as alliances take shape.

THERRON: Nick is a good dude.

DENNIS: Jeannie,

I'm so happy I'm going with you instead of Jennye.

-(grunts) -We need to be pulling her up this mountain.

If she gives up,

-or if she doesn't make a checkpoint... -(grunts)

-...her money's gone. -JEANNIE: Come on, Pati!

(chuckles): This can get nasty.

MANU: With the 14-day deadline

-fast approaching... -(grunts)

Congratulations for reaching the halfway mark to the summit.

(cheering)

(screams)

-MANU: ...who will race ahead? -Dusty!

DUSTY: Clock's ticking, guys. We got to go.

PUNKIN: Hold on, y'all.

DENNIS: (bleep) Dusty.

MANU: ...and who will fall behind?

(grunts)

MANU: As the group's arduous journey continues...

-PUNKIN: Go get the bag. -THERRON: With the mountain's keeper,

you just really never know what you're gonna get.

Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad.

The twists are so hard to predict.

Tonight, we're gonna have a different vote.

What?

MANU: They must remember to heed

the rules of the mountain...

-Are you kidding me? -...or suffer the consequences.

Nobody wins in this vote.

BECKYLEE: You're-- Therron.

Therron. Therron, Therron.

-Therron. -I know, I know, I know, I know.

I'm sorry.

(wind whistling)

(thunder crashes)

* *

(Jennye exhales)

MANU: As day seven of 14 drains away,

the fallout from the group's latest vote is getting heated.

-How are you feeling, Jennye? -JEANNIE: How you feeling?

JENNYE: Um, I'm feeling as though I hope we know

that we're coming to the hardest part of the journey,

and we just lost one of the most knowledgeable members

of this group, the person that we always

ask questions, we always go to.

"What about this?" The person who finds the footing for us,

the best paths for us, the person who gets up

in the morning and goes ahead and makes fire,

pulls a lot of weight around camp.

You know what I mean?

But Dennis...

And I'm gonna finish before being interrupted.

But I hope we know that we traded a...

someone who was perceived as shifty

to someone who is a known liar who doesn't do those things.

So I'm just gonna call it like I see it.

From the last vote, we all know that Dennis is a liar.

It was obvious.

AMY: Dennis, he lied to Manu.

He did throw Geoff's name out first.

Are we going with someone who we know is lying to our face

or are we going with someone who...

"Is he gonna be with me when the majority isn't?"

-JENNYE: Yeah. Yeah. -Question mark.

JENNYE: We just said, "We know we can't trust

anything that comes out of your mouth, but that's okay."

I saw some (bleep), and I'm gonna hold him accountable

to his (bleep) lies.

BECKYLEE: All right, that was, like, emotionally exhausting.

-PATI: Yeah. -So how about no more game tonight?

-NICK: I like that. -And we just... -Yeah.

-JEANNIE: Burgers. -Burgers. -AMY: Let's eat.

-Burgers. -AMY: Come on.

THERRON: I'm gonna go grab the burgers.

JENNYE: I am just a straight shooter.

I'm very transparent.

I can't be that, "Oh, my God. We're besties,"

and then be like, "I'm-a vote you off, bitch."

I can't be that person.

That doesn't make any sense to me.

I'm just gonna be me the whole way through,

and if people like it, great, if they don't...

NICK: Oof. That's a burger right there.

Oh, my God, that could not have worked out more perfectly.

Jennye literally just blew up her whole (bleep) game.

(laughs)

(bleep) idiot.

I got exposed, but the thing is,

Jennye thinks she's, like, a step ahead of me.

Girl, you're, like, seven steps behind.

You playing checkers right now. I'm playing chess.

Be more emotional, seriously.

Great for my game. Love it.

Target on your back, Jennye. Thank you, thank you.

And trust me, we ain't gonna be friends after this game,

'cause I don't want to be your friend.

Rob, her number one alliance, just got eliminated,

and she's got no one, and I low-key love that.

She thinks that I'm afraid of her.

She thinks she's a fighter?

Girl, I'm also a fighter, too.

You ain't that tough, lady. You ain't that tough.

Where is the cheese?

-Over there, babe. -Ooh.

I hope people see that if I'm your friend...

-Mm-hmm. -...I'm your friend, but if I...

-Yeah. Yeah, I know. -...but if you...

I-I kind of knew that when I first met you, too.

Jennye continues to call out Dennis.

I know Jennye is the cat person,

but somehow, Dennis has nine lives in this game,

and I do not know how he's still here.

I'm a fighter, honey. Like, I didn't even have

to pull it out until now, but...

-Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. -I respect it.

Listen, I totally understand.

-I think we're more alike than we think. -JENNYE: Mm-hmm.

I got a, I got a (bleep) attitude right now.

(laughs): That's all right.

Listen, Jennye is no-nonsense.

What Jennye says, Jennye is gonna do.

We have a good relationship,

but this is not a game where you want

-to go around making enemies. -(laughs)

NICK: Right now, too much

can get you taken out, too little can get you taken out.

I'm trying to keep it behind-the-scenes.

I'm trying to be as strategic as possible,

and, um, make the right moves at the right time.

* *

(wind whistling)

AMY: All this wood is wet.

Like, real wet.

We should've put the wood in the tent last night.

We got rained on last night.

None of us thought to put our firewood in our tent?

Yeah, we're not all geniuses out here.

We definitely need somebody calling the shots.

And this morning, we didn't have Robert.

He always did it for us.

-(coughs) -Okay.

AMY: I didn't dismiss that.

I saw the struggles he had most mornings making fire.

I wasn't gonna let that fire not start this morning.

JEANNIE: There you go. There you go.

Nice, nice.

AMY: Why is that so nerve-racking?

JEANNIE: Yeah.

(laughter)

I'm the fire woman! Adventure Amy.

I don't even know who this person is,

like, honestly, she...

I don't know, but I like her.

Cup of joe.

-Clink. -(both chuckle)

AMY: It's day eight, and we're halfway there,

which is a huge feat for me.

The summit's behind us,

you just can't see it 'cause of the morning dew.

Next checkpoint's not anywhere close to us,

so we have quite a bit of ground to make up today.

AMY (whispers): Jennye?

BECKYLEE: Mm-hmm.

AMY: That would be a hard one for me, but that's okay.

BECKYLEE: Dennis is a very good scapegoat.

Like, he's always gonna be in the hot seat.

I do think there's, like, a value to him

being around just because all eyes are on him,

-always. -Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

BECKYLEE: The obvious one that everyone really wants is Dennis.

His name has been thrown out a couple times,

but the thing is, he is scared loyal.

He will do what we want because he does not want to see

his name come out again.

Everyone's eyes are always on Dennis,

and that means they're not on me running the whole thing.

He's never gonna recover his reputation.

It's buried.

A good distraction is good.

(laughs): This-- it-it can get nasty.

I know. Very soon. (chuckles)

I want to get ready and get dressed

-'cause I know we're leaving soon. -Yeah. Yeah.

I have a feeling it's gonna be exhausting today.

THERRON: If it was up to me,

I would definitely love to see Amy go next,

'cause every time we go to vote, everybody's, like,

"I don't know, I'm not voting for Amy."

That's what everybody...

-Yeah, I'm seeing, um... -And that's-that's not right.

I'm-I'm not Amy, so that means that I'm always

-on the chopping block over her. -(whispers): I hear you.

THERRON: Nick is a good dude.

He and I get along on a different level

than a lot of the other people

I spend the time with on the mountain.

You know where we stand.

-I'll never say your name... -Oh, yeah.

I can see Nick and myself

making it to the summit.

He's someone I can work with

and someone I can trust.

-I think we're good. -That is good.

Okay, let me go get my shoes, but yeah.

DUSTY: Are you guys ready?

-JEANNIE: Yeah. -PUNKIN: Any idea of the terrain?

It is gonna be steep uphill.

Total miles won't be horrible today...

-AMY: Until we have to go up. -...but legs,

-short-term, we'll-we'll have a hard time. -Mm-hmm.

NICK: Damn, look how high that is.

PATI: We're going 14 days straight.

-We're on day eight. -(exhales)

My body's been getting ass-whupped.

-(sighs) -My knee is, like, messed up,

but I'm pushing through

because I think my strategy is pretty solid.

I'm connecting with the right people.

There's no doubt

in my mind that I can't make it.

I'm super proud of myself.

I have to keep going.

DUSTY: Are you guys good with heading it towards

this little mini valley and making a right?

-JEANNIE: All right, yeah. -Do you guys want me to go in front?

-Yeah. -PUNKIN: Sure. -BECKYLEE: Let's do this.

MANU: Day eight,

the halfway point to the summit.

Fresh off a weather delay, the group needs to move faster

in order to make it to their fifth checkpoint camp.

If their first week on the mountain

was considered challenging,

harsher conditions and the snow line

all loom ahead.

-DUSTY: Keep your feet dry. -JEANNIE: Okay, you good?

DUSTY: I went quick step to that guy, Therron.

Yeah, there you-- Yeah, yeah. Keep moving.

THERRON: I feel a lot of pressure to make sure we keep moving

and get a good pace

because the last thing I want is for us

not to make the checkpoint, and then we have to sleep

on the side of this mountain in a bivvy.

MANU: You've missed your first checkpoint.

You're gonna have to sleep here on the trail.

-JEANNIE: My God. -DENNIS: Dude, it's cold.

-PATI: The bugs are bad. -I've done it once.

It's off the bucket list. Scratched off.

Don't need to look back at that page.

DUSTY: You're good there, Therron?

THERRON: Yeah. Is that loose?

Uh, just don't put heavy weight on it.

Just use my hand. I got you.

My goal is to win this thing.

It's gonna be a huge disappointment for me,

and, frankly, my entire family

and all my friends if I don't win this thing.

There you go, Ames.

-Keep your hands wide. -AMY: Good thinking, Dusty.

I am a perfectionist, depending on what I'm asked to do.

I have played a lot of sports at a high level.

I have played football,

and I've ran track.

I don't like not being good at things.

If I'm not good at something...

...I get pissed off and frustrated.

It's an ego hit to me, so I make sure

that if I'm gonna be taking on something,

I better be good at it.

People have picked me to be the leader

in multiple instances,

and I'm gonna remain a leader until the day I'm at the summit.

Come on, Pati.

JEANNIE: Yeah!

DUSTY: Good job, Pati.

Oh, damn, y'all, this is about to be hard.

We're gonna have to go up.

It's gonna get really cold.

PATI: You know, I've been in the back, but...

I'm just playing the social game as much as possible.

If you're making the best relationships

with the people that are in the front,

it doesn't matter if you're in the back.

You can still make it to the front.

PUNKIN: Hold on, y'all.

NICK: Pati's struggling.

DUSTY: If I know that it's not gonna be a detriment to me

to go help someone and be comforting,

I'm happy to play that role, but at the end of the day,

folks that are being slow and taking their time,

they're holding the group back.

Be super, super transparent with me.

I've been very honest with you.

I would love to just hang with you guys,

but unfortunately, I'd be lying if I said

-that this one wasn't freaking me out. -Yeah.

I'm gonna care a lot more about winning than anything else.

I'm not out here to just have fun

and have a nice little walk in the park.

I can be ruthless if I need to be.

I'm trying to get that million bucks at the end,

and I can't help but put a dollar amount

next to each one of these people.

AMY: You want your harness, Dusty?

-DUSTY: Oh, yes, ma'am. Thank you. -One, two, three.

-DUSTY: Weather's a little different. -JEANNIE: It just shows you

how high up we're-- we are, right?

MANU: Reaching the snow line

means two things:

unforgiving terrain and sharp inclines.

The group will need to use additional safety gear

to tackle these punishing conditions.

BECKYLEE: Okay, let's go.

JEANNIE: This is gonna be hard.

MANU: Summiting this mountain

is not for the faint-hearted.

Come on.

You can... (bleep). (grunts)

DUSTY: Let's go.

(Pati cries out)

(yells)

Sorry, guys.

DUSTY: Just keep going. I wouldn't stop.

-PUNKIN: No. -BECKYLEE: Nope.

(shouts, cries out)

(bleep). My leg, it just went through something.

Hold on. (bleep).

(grunts) I'm stuck between this rock.

(distant shout)

Oh, my God, my leg is stuck in the rock.

(grunts) Oh, my God.

I'm in a lot of pain. My knee...

It just, it feels like this. It's swollen.

-(sputters) -There you go, there you go, there you go.

Come on, Pati. You got this. One more push.

PATI: It's very uncomfortable.

This is a lot, but I'm-I'm just pushing.

-(Amy grunts) -NICK: Damn, this is steep.

THERRON: It's a little hard.

(Amy grunts)

-Those kill me every time. -DENNIS: Snow's getting deeper here, guys.

JEANNIE: You okay? Amy? Pati?

-Guys? -We're good.

JEANNIE: Come on, Pati.

-You got this. -DUSTY: All right, you guys ready

for a little push? You guys okay to keep trekking?

-DENNIS: Thank you for paving-paving the way, Dusty. -Yeah.

I let Dusty lead 'cause I don't want to be a leader,

and on top of that, I don't want more of a target on my back.

So it's a good chance for him to just be the leader,

and whatever repercussions come from that, it's not on me.

PATI: Good God.

I'm coming, baby.

(exhales)

* *

MANU: Nobody said it would be easy.

Oh, God.

MANU: With a looming 14-day deadline to reach the summit,

the pressure is on to move at a faster pace.

But on day one, I warned them that for safety reasons,

they must travel together as a group.

Now it's time for the mountain's keeper

to issue a reminder because on this mountain...

MANU: ...it is succeed together

or fail alone.

(groans)

DENNIS: Guys, the keeper's here.

JEANNIE: Let's go!

-(panting) -JEANNIE: Come on, Pati!

Come on, Pati!

-PUNKIN: We have a sign. -DENNIS: Oh, my God.

JENNYE: "The only way to get to your next checkpoint camp

in time is straight down this rock face."

JEANNIE: Oh, my God! (screams)

-JENNYE: Gotta go, gotta go. -PUNKIN: Go get the bag!

DENNIS: Therron, he ran like a chicken with his head cut off.

(wind whistling)

DENNIS: Whew, this is tough.

(panting)

(whimpering)

DENNIS: Guys, the keeper's here.

NICK: Come on, now. Don't do this.

DENNIS: Oh, God, dude.

(groans) What's happening here?

The mountain keeper is just circling around,

and there's always a reason why.

JEANNIE: Come on, Pati! Let's go!

DENNIS: I know at some point, it's gonna be a difficult dilemma.

(grunting)

AMY: You're good. Keep going.

The mountain keeper's telling us something.

It's a warning.

Something is wrong,

and I'm already thinking,

"This is not good."

PUNKIN: Come on!

(cries out)

PATI: Good God.

What the (bleep) did I sign up for?

DUSTY: It's a warning in some capacity,

but I personally get

excited every time I see the mountain's keeper

because it means we are one day,

one moment closer

to getting fewer and fewer people

that deserve to be up on the mountain.

Big ol' holes up here.

(grunts)

(panting)

(whimpers)

AMY: I don't see them.

DUSTY: Am I blind? Where are they at?

PUNKIN: Oh, (bleep), I don't see either of them.

This is hard. (panting)

I'm struggling in the back. I'm feeling very alone.

Everybody is now gone.

I think I'm a little more scared

than I'm letting on,

but I'm so tired.

That little voice is creeping in.

Telling me this is hard.

(grunting)

I can't... move.

PUNKIN: Oh, (bleep)

-Hold on. Hold up. -THERRON: Hold up.

AMY: I can't quit.

What kind of mom would I be

if I told my kids they can do hard things

and then I just quit 'cause it was too hard?

(grunting)

One step. One step.

PUNKIN: That was hard, y'all.

Got a sign up ahead, guys.

A sign?

-PUNKIN: We have a sign. -DENNIS: Oh, my God.

Holy moly.

THERRON: Oh, no. There's nothing but a ledge on the other side.

PATI: Good God.

JEANNIE: Oh, my God.

MANU: The lead group has surged ahead,

leaving the trailing members too far behind.

(grunts)

Now they must pause until the stragglers rejoin the ranks.

-Four more steps. -PUNKIN: Good job, Amy.

Big push.

DUSTY: Can you see Pati still?

NICK: No, not really.

We made pretty good time, all things considered.

It's gonna be a wait.

DUSTY: I think the odds of us making it up this mountain today

with Pati are about zero percent.

She's a little bit

of an anchor that we're dragging up the hill,

which, we'll see if it come back... comes back to bite us.

-PUNKIN: Good job, Pati. -DENNIS: Good job, P.

JEANNIE: Damn, man.

DUSTY: Go ahead. You want to read this?

JENNYE: "The only way to get to your next checkpoint camp in time

is straight down this rock face.

"In order to do that,

"you must repel down one line

"and change ropes midway to reach the bottom.

"You must rush to make camp where another surprise awaits,

"but remember to stick together.

"I've been watching you."

AMY: The mountain's keeper is keeping eye on us. I think

she's definitely giving us some sort of warning.

"Hey, guys. You need to start working together."

We need to stick closer together

because there's a big bunch at the front and we... it's hard.

I know, I've been in the middle, I've been in the back.

It's hard.

Oh, my gosh.

I'm not sure what the mountain's keeper

is looking for, but the facts are the facts.

We've got 14 days to get to the Summit.

If we don't make it in 14 days, we get nothing.

-Yep, let's go. -Just be careful, y'all.

Watch your step.

PATI: (chuckles) I am absolutely

terrified. This is, like, my worst nightmare.

I've never done this,

where you have to repel down,

ever, in my whole life. Yeah.

I feel like throwing up.

(laughs)

BECKYLEE: Look at that.

MANU: The group now stands on the precipice

of a 500-foot sheer cliff.

To stay on schedule and make checkpoint camp before sunset...

-Just watch your step. -AMY: Yep.

MANU: ...they must work in pairs

to repel the near-vertical rock face,

and then speed down the gravity line

to the valley floor below.

Good?

I think that, especially us going first, it'll show folks,

"Okay, these two got it, they're calm, they're collected,

they're talking it easy, they're going down."

Big step there. Big step there.

BECKYLEE: Yep.

Coming into this, I feel like I naturally

have this lone wolf mentality.

Like, I'd rather do it myself and know I'm doing it right

than trust somebody else.

Comfortable?

-Comfortable as I can be. -Good.

BECKYLEE: I don't know if one person could do this alone.

I hope I can trust Dusty as a partner.

I'm gonna be telling myself, "Don't look down."

DUSTY: Okay, here we go.

You're gonna have to really grip onto the rope.

Oh, wow.

I went into this not afraid of heights.

And I'm feeling my, like, thoughts of doubt creep in.

That's a long way down.

"You feel every single muscle in your body shaking,

and you think, "Can I do this?"

DUSTY: This is just a big step down.

You're just gonna have to trust the rope when you go.

Whew.

I'm looking at this tension repel,

and I'm confident, physically, in this challenge.

I also want to show the entire group that I can do this,

and I think it'll be a good leadership opportunity for me.

I think my competitive nature comes directly

from my older brothers, growing up.

'Cause I was the youngest, I kind of had to find a way

to get on that level and just get interest

and attention from my family.

(grunts)

I look up to both of them a ton,

but I always had something to prove

as the youngest brother, and I think,

even nowadays, I'm gonna care a lot more

about winning than anything else.

How's it looking, Dusty?

Dusty, can you hear me?

(grunting)

(echoing): Dusty!

Dusty!

I don't see Dusty.

I have no idea what the heck happened.

Dusty!

-DENNIS: Against the rock, Jeannie! -Oh, my God!

Guys, she's coming.

PUNKIN: Go get it! Dusty!

Go get it!

MANU: The mountain keeper's been watching.

Tonight we're gonna have a different vote.

-BECKYLEE: Are you kidding me? -(sobs)

(wind whistling)

* *

How's it looking, Dusty?

Dusty, can you hear me?

(echoing): Dusty!

(grunts)

DUSTY: This is the hardest thing we've done so far.

Mentally, this is rough.

Any pairs that have two people who are scared of heights--

I'm really concerned for them right now.

Dusty!

I don't see Dusty.

Dusty!

I guess I'm doing this alone, then.

Getting left behind is-is is kind of overwhelming.

(singsong): I really don't want to do this.

I really don't.

What the hell?

It's friggin' straight down.

I don't understand.

(grunts)

I (bleep) up my knee.

I've always had a hard time being vulnerable,

expressing my emotions,

and this game definitely tests that, for sure.

(breathing rapidly)

I grew up the oldest of four kids.

My parents got a divorce.

It was messy, and I kind of had to, like, step up.

I've always felt the older child burden to the extreme,

and because of that...

I hate this. I hate this!

...I hate things that are out of my control.

What? There's no friggin' rocks. (grunts)

Dusty!

DUSTY: You all right, Becks?

(grunts) Where are you, Dusty?

I'm right here. Can you see me?

My arms are so dead.

DUSTY: Yeah. That one's rough.

Miserable.

With this obstacle,

you know, you just kind of have to tough it out

and keep going.

DUSTY: Just trust your harness.

Let go?

(exclaiming)

DUSTY: Oh. Oh.

-BECKLYEE: Oh, my God. -Oh, my God!

-Whoa! -(whoops)

DUSTY: Oh, my God!

-(laughs) -Ooh. Ooh.

(whoops)

DUSTY: Oh, man.

-Letting go of that rope took everything in me to... -BECKYLEE: I know.

Your body is, like, "Do not do that."

DUSTY: That jump-- that was rough for me.

Oh, thank God.

That's gonna be rough for everyone else.

Jeannie, I'm so happy I'm going with you instead of Jennye.

Yeah, I know.

DENNIS: It's scary because everyone thinks

that I'm a mean person, I'm evil.

JEANNIE: I think it was because

they thought you were just playing ha...

-hard too fast, you know? -Yeah.

A lot of people in this game have

been talking bad about my game,

saying that I am untrustworthy,

which, honestly, to a point, I kind of am.

JEANNIE: And you have to, like, say something,

like, "Guys, we're all playing the game.

"I'm sorry I played too hard, but..."

Yeah, but at the end of the day,

-like right now? -Yeah.

Like, you would be lying saying no one...

-no one else right now is playing as hard as I am. -Yeah.

I trust Dennis. He always makes me

feel a little bit more secure.

Oh. (sharp exhale)

JEANNIE: He knows his name's already been thrown around,

but he has my back, so, for me,

I'm gonna stick with Dennis.

Holy (bleep).

It just got real.

(Dennis grunts)

Just go a little bit at a time.

DENNIS: I look down off the edge, it's a 90-degree vertical drop.

Oh, my God.

I cannot see anything.

My heart is sinking.

Oh, I just don't want to look down.

-Jeannie. -Yeah?

You have to look down to see your foot placement, girl.

Oh.

I call myself an adrenaline junkie.

Being a trauma ICU nurse,

I work in a very high-stressful environment.

(grunting)

Right now, I have more adrenaline

than I ever have doing chest compressions

and breaking someone's sternum.

You got this, Jeannie!

Okay, I'm coming down!

Jeannie, you got this, man.

I got this. I got this.

Hand over hand. I'm just belaying down.

Hand over hand.

I've never done anything like this before.

Like, I have no clue how to repel down.

I'm so glad I have a partner this time.

You got this, my Italian mom!

(moaning)

Dennis, walk me through it, please!

It's worth it!

It's not too bad!

I definitely just lied to her. It's that bad.

Oh, my God. (laughs)

(moans) Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Aah!

Yes, Jeannie! Take a leap of faith! You got it!

Plant your feet right apart against the rock!

Against the rock, against the rock, Jeannie!

Feet apart against the rock, Jeannie!

(gasping, moaning)

Oh, my God!

DENNIS: Yes, Jeannie!

Damn it! I knew I would've tried out for Wheel of Fortune.

-DENNIS: (laughs) Ready? -No. Yeah.

-Three, -Yeah. I'm freaking out.

-two, one. -Oh, my God!

DENNIS: Oh, God! Oh, God!

This sucks! This sucks! This sucks!

Oh, my...! Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

JEANNIE: Oh, my God!

(both screaming)

This is so...

-This is terrifying! -Oh, my God! Aah!

Who is that?

-Jeannie freaking out. -That Jeannie?

-Yeah. -(Jeannie shouting)

DENNIS: Jeannie! Oh, my God.

JEANNIE: Oh, my God!

I'm gonna throw up right now!

Oh, my God!

(panting)

You know, I understand why they told us

to wear quick-dry underwear.

Oh, my God. That was scary.

When you do something that's really scary

and you do it, you accomplish it,

you feel so good about yourself.

And that's what I'm looking for.

I'm looking for some confidence,

and that definitely gave me a lot of confidence.

-Yeah. Yeah. -That's where we started, you know?

-That's where we started. -Yeah, I know.

-Let me see that mountain. -All, all the way up there.

-All the way up there. -Oh, my God!

Look at that.

(both laughing)

Oh, my God, this is kind of scary.

Hold on.

Are you nervous about what tonight holds?

AMY: Yeah. We need to switch up from the Dennis.

Dennis is, like, not gaming.

-He's just hanging out -No, he's just...

and being sweet now 'cause he got caught.

AMY: I'm definitely holding the group back with Pati,

so, yeah, I'm real nervous.

I'm thinking they're gonna vote me off.

-THERRON: You got it? -Yep.

I'm gonna take this opportunity to show Therron

that I can do my part

and help us get up the summit.

THERRON: I've been voting off the people I don't have connections with,

-You know what I mean? And... -Right.

That's why I don't want to be on your "not connection" list.

THERRON: I would definitely would love to see Amy go next.

I love her.

But this game is forcing us

to make some really hard decisions.

And she's on the wrong side of the numbers.

(grunting)

I think Mama Amy has had her time.

-Ooh, this next part is gonna be scary as (bleep). Okay. -Okay.

Ooh. This next part, Amy--

it's-it's-it's straight down.

Oh, my God. I can't look back.

Hey, hey, Therron.

-Hey, hey. -Breathe. Breathe.

You got it.

No, no. I believe in you.

THERRON: I want to quit. I want to give up.

I don't want to do this. I do not want to be here.

I don't want to be anywhere around what I'm doing.

-Oh, my God. -You got it, babe.

-Hey, you're killing it. Okay. -(grunts)

Step. Baby steps, baby steps.

THERRON: I'm not an adrenaline junkie.

I do not get on rollercoasters.

I do not do stuff like this.

I'm safe.

This is really scary. I'm safe.

And honestly, I just feel like

if I would have known, I may have not signed up.

Please get me down from here!

Good job, T!

You got it, Therron.

(grunts) Oh, God.

Please, get me to a little solid ground.

Oh, my God.

Oh, God.

Oh, my God.

What is this?

Oh, God. I'm okay.

Therron is freaking out.

I have a very loud, bellowing voice when I need to have one.

Therron, do not look back!

I'm gonna need that to get him

through this next obstacle.

Therron, you got this.

Say, "I got this."

Oh, God. Oh, God. (panting)

Therron! Therron!

You got this.

THERRON: The fear is just... falling.

And I'm up really high.

And...

I just don't know what I signed up for.

Amy! I-I can't do this.

-Therron, yes you can! -I-I-I can't. I cannot do this.

-Therron! Therron! Therron? -I am telling you right now

-Look forward. Therron, look forward. -I cannot...

-Amy? Amy... -Therron, Therron, look forward!

Hey, hey, hey! Therron, Therron.

-Look at me, Therron. -THERRON: I keep asking myself

"Is the money worth how scared I'm feeling?" and I don't know.

-Therron. Therron. -(whimpering)

Therron! Hey, you're not gonna fall.

Therron, say it. "I'm not gonna fall."

-(crying) -You're... Therron! Therron!

THERRON: Amy, I... I can't do this.

THERRON: I got this. I got this. I got this.

Amy, I... I can't do this.

I'm-I'm... I can't. I cannot do this.

I'm telling you right now, I cannot...

-Therron, look forward. Therron! -Amy... Amy...

Therron, look at me.

You're not gonna fall. Therron, say it.

-"I'm not gonna fall." -(crying)

You're... Therron! Look forward!

Do not look back!

I know, I know, I know, I know. I'm sorry.

-I don't know, Amy. -Hey!

Hey, hey. Do not apologize.

Look at me. You got this.

Therron, you got this.

-Say, "I got this." -I got this.

You got this.

THERRON: Do I let go of the rope?

There's no more rope, either.

Something in you just tells you,

"Don't let go." Like, you're not supposed to.

This isn't a normal feeling.

AMY: Hey, I'm with you. Therron, Therron, me and you,

side by side. Look, I'm with you.

-Okay. -I'm with you. Look at me.

Me and you. You're gonna let go of the rope.

You're gonna hold onto the blue in front of you, Therron.

You're okay.

Therron, Therron, I'm right here.

-I'm right here. No! No! No! -(screaming)

Therron! Therron!

Look at me. It's fun.

(Therron screaming)

THERRON: The let-go phase

of that rope is the scariest thing I've done here.

"I know it has me, but am I gonna die?"

-(screaming) -AMY: I'm right here! No! No!

No! It's fun.

(Amy laughs)

THERRON: Okay, this is actually more fun now.

Okay, I'm not scared!

I'm not scared now!

When I got a little bit from the wall, I was

starting to have fun 'cause I was, like, "Okay, you safe."

This is fun! (whooping)

(laughing)

THERRON: Oh, my God, Amy, I'm so sorry.

I had a moment. Oh, my God,

I had a moment.

Oh, my God, I had a moment.

-We did it. We did it. -Hey, who did it?

-We did it. -We did it.

Okay. (whimpering)

If Amy wasn't there,

I really did want to quit.

I wanted to give up so much.

Amy, give me a hug.

-I love you. -I lost it. I...

AMY: I was never gonna let you quit.

(Punkin panting rapidly)

PATI: Hey, you got that bad bitch in you, come on.

-(whimpering) -You got this.

You got this. One step at a time, babe.

One step at a time.

Your time. Your time.

(whimpering)

H-How?

I-I can't. I can't.

Wait, wait, wait!

I could fall, I could die.

Like, if there's a slip of the rope,

I-I'm gone, and there's just nothing I could do.

But my mom didn't raise a quitter.

I grew up in a small town

in Mississippi, in the projects.

Me, my sisters and my mom.

My mom made sure that we did not

become a product

of our environment. We always had so much love in our home.

PATI: Keep going, P!

PUNKIN: Being from the south and growing up in the church,

coming out was definitely a difficult time.

It was a scary time.

But I finally decided to come out at 21,

and I wanted to live my life unapologetically me.

And love who I wanted to love.

My mom said she will always support me

and never turn her back on me.

And so that's really just what I... what I needed.

If I had to look up to anybody, it would definitely be my mom.

She instilled so much grit in us,

and never quit, and to just go after your dreams.

(grunting)

Good job, P!

PUNKIN: In times where I feel like I...

I want to give up,

what's going to motive me to keep me going is my family.

So we're gonna keep going until the end.

(grunting)

Okay.

PUNKIN: Come on, Pati!

You got it!

(Pati grunting)

(bleep)

PUNKIN: You got it!

Come on, let me hear you!

-(grunts) -You got it.

-Come on. -PATI: I just hit

one of the rocks so hard.

(bleep)

And I'm like...

"Is this it? Are we gonna quit?"

There you go, Pati. Good job.

PATI: It's very uncomfortable, but

I have to keep going.

-You got this, P. Don't worry. -Where do I... where do I hold?

PATI: Hey, you're good. Look at me.

You're good. Look at me.

I'm doing it. Just let go.

-And you... hold on. -(Punkin whimpering)

-You're good. You're good. -(screaming)

Hey, look at me.

Look at me, P.

Look at me.

Nice and slow. Look at me. Look at me.

-You're good. You're good. -(groans)

Hey, hey.

Nice and slow, lookit.

Oh! Oh, my God.

P! Look at me, P!

Just relax! Just relax!

(whimpering)

-(exhales) -(contestants cheering)

That was (bleep). That was tough.

-That was tough. -Pati! Pati!

-All right. Here we go. -JENNYE: Here we go.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, (bleep).

My worst fear right now is whatever's over that ledge.

I can't see it.

I have no idea what it is.

NICK: Whoa.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Don't look down, dude.

I'm completely out of my element right now.

Ooh, just trust it, dude.

Just trust it.

Oh...

I'm from Louisiana.

There are no hills and mountains.

I have never repelled before in my entire life.

And I am deathly terrified of heights.

Ooh. (whoops)

This game is incredibly challenging

because you have to have a great physical game.

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

But you also have to have a very good social game.

And that's what I'm gonna hang my hat on.

Nothing is gonna keep me from getting

to the top of this summit. Um...

Make no mistake, I am terrified.

(exhales)

Yeah, you got it, Jennye. You got it.

Nice, Jennye.

JENNYE: I am currently hiding

a significant knee injury

that most of the group does not know about.

They just see me limping, but they truly

don't know the extent.

Aah!

My pain is my problem.

-You got it, Jennye. -JENNYE: Like,

they don't need to know that.

Especially Dennis, because he might put a target on my back.

So I'm just gonna keep going.

Holy (bleep).

Aah!

Doing this kind of a activity,

it's never going to get better, and we

have a time limit. And there's nothing we can do about that.

-Way to go, Nick. -Just trust it.

Oh, (bleep).

-Whoa, whoa! -Meow!

Meow! Meow!

BECKYLEE: There's a couple of names going around.

I've heard Jennye...

Meow!

...Amy and Dennis' name get thrown out.

I would like to see Jennye go.

I'm sort of working with Dennis, at least for now.

-Meow! -Jennye, I've never talked an ounce of game.

I'm not sure if she's working with anybody.

She just doesn't strategize, but also,

I don't need to hear the word "meow" again in my life.

Meow! Meow!

Meow!

-Meow! -Nice job, Jennye.

The zip line, always.

That's my (bleep) right there.

-Yeah, Nick! Yeah, Jennye! -JEANNIE: Yay!

Easy. Easy.

Come on, you did it!

-Dude. -You did it, man!

DUSTY: All right, you guys ready?

Here we go.

You guys go ahead, please. Love you.

-You sure? -A hundred percent.

Y'all, we got to pick up the pace.

PATI: Dusty's leading right now, and I've been in the back.

I just feel more comfortable where I can catch up.

If anybody has a problem, my door's open.

They can... they can come talk to me.

(grunts)

-(indistinct chatter) -Ooh! Lord!

DENNIS: I think the mountain keeper wants us to pick up the pace.

Sorry.

DENNIS: But also, we need to stick together 'cause

Pati is really far behind, and not just 50 feet.

She is, like, two to 300 feet behind us.

PUNKIN: Oh, she's way back there?

What's she doing way back there? Pati.

(grunting)

You guys okay to keep trekking?

-Yes. -Cool. Here we go.

NICK: You know, Dusty does

a great job up front. He sets a good pace.

Nice speed, Ames.

NICK: I feel like we're-we're falling a little bit behind,

so if he says speed up, we do have to get going.

MANU: By the looks of it,

the group is still having trouble following the rules.

And on this mountain,

actions have consequences.

THERRON: Ooh. That's the mountain's keeper!

-That's the mountain's keeper. -(groans)

PUNKIN: The hike today is brutal.

My brain is tired, my body is tired.

I'm absolutely triggered.

-Come on. -JENNYE: What's going on?

PUNKIN: I'm wondering what the heck she wants.

Why is she here again? What does this mean?

AMY: He's got a yellow pack.

DENNIS: In that yellow duffle bag--

if it's an immunity or an advantage--

I need it, 'cause I hear people

dropping my name all the time.

-Go get it! -Dusty, get it!

Go, Dusty!

Go get it!

(wind whistling)

Go get the bag!

THERRON: With the mountain's keeper, you just really never know

what you're gonna get, bag-wise.

Where'd it go?

THERRON: Sometimes it's good, sometimes

it's bad, sometimes we're saving people,

sometimes we're getting rid of people.

The twists are so hard to predict.

Therron, get it! Therron, get it.

So I'm sprinting for every bag.

(grunting)

-Good job, Therron. -DENNIS: Therron, man.

He ran like a chicken with his head cut off

and grabs this duffle bag before me.

-Open it, T. -Open it right there.

-What is this? -What's it say?

DENNIS: Come on, P. Let's go!

-I'm scared. -I'm so scared too, okay.

-JENNYE: Open it, open it, open it. -JEANNIE: Yeah, open it, please.

"The mountain gives

"and it takes away. Which is it?

"You'll have to carry this bag to camp to find out.

The mountain keeper."

This says either/or, right?

So it doesn't have to be a good and a bad.

-Or it could be both. -It could be both.

-It could be both, yeah. -Yeah.

-JENNYE: Let's take it back. -PUNKIN: Let's take it back and we'll see.

-Yeah, let's see what it is. -NICK: Let's go. Let's do it.

All right, here we go.

We're heading over to the checkpoint,

and we all know what checkpoints mean, and

I have a good feeling on who's probably going home.

Dennis, Dennis, Dennis.

His name has been on the chopping block

for a while at this point.

It ain't gonna be us, honey. (bleep) that.

NICK: I do believe Dennis' time is coming

to an end right now, but he was

the good chess piece.

-THERRON: We made it to camp! -NICK: We made it.

JENNYE: We made it!

MANU: After a grueling hike, the group is finally

approaching the fifth of nine checkpoint camps

and the halfway mark to the summit.

That's the best sign I've seen all day.

MANU: A milestone worth celebrating.

BECKYLEE: Champagne!

PUNKIN: Hey!

We're all getting drunk tonight!

(laughter)

-THERRON: Y'all want to open this? -PUNKIN: Yeah!

-DUSTY: Let's do it. -THERRON: Y'all ready?

PUNKIN: Let's see.

Ooh.

Boots? Oh, Dennis, we got boots!

(cheering, clamoring)

(cheering)

JEANNIE: All right, let's get to the letters.

Oh. (kisses)

My heart's racing.

We got letters from loved ones,

which I... Oh, my God.

It feels so good.

This is what motivates you.

All right, so, this is from my oldest daughter.

We've very close.

"First things first, I miss you like crazy.

"The house just isn't the same without you:

"extremely loud.

"You're not just amazing,

you're like the superhero of our family."

Ooh, I didn't know that.

(laughs)

"I love you.

Kick some ass, Mom. Sorry for cursing."

(laughing)

It says, "I hope this letter finds you in good spirits,

"ready to take on any challenge

"that lies ahead. As your big sister,

I couldn't be more proud of you."

"You've always had this incredible ability to

"face any obstacle head on, never backing down

"and always pushing yourself to new limits.

"It's these qualities that have made me

believe in you wholeheartedly."

This letter is motivating me to just

push beyond the pain and, um,

just to keep moving.

PUNKIN: "My beautiful wife.

"First of all, wow.

"I'm so proud of you.

"I'm sure you're giving all you've got out there,

"building relationships and tactfully giving them hell.

"Love, your wife.

"P.S. I rearranged

all the decor while you were gone."

-(laughing) -NICK: Oh, yeah.

It's from my dad. Um...

"Well, you made it."

(bleep)

It's definitely hitting me hard right now.

I've never been away from my family for

my entire life, especially with no contact.

"I couldn't be more impressed."

"What an incredible experience you have in front of you.

"Just be yourself. That should be enough.

Love, Dad."

Yeah, that's awesome, huh?

I couldn't read any more of that.

-(laughing) -NICK: I have some

pretty good people waiting on me back home, and

that's what's getting me through this.

"Mom, I'm so beyond proud of you

"for embarking on this journey.

"I know you're doing amazing.

"This is nothing compared to the challenges

"you have faced, and I have no doubt you can do this.

"You've always told me to never doubt myself

"and never give up,

"so I expect you to listen to your own advice.

I love and miss you. Emma, your favorite daughter."

(laughing)

I really needed those letters to come today,

especially with all the doubt that I had today.

It was pretty powerful when you've got your girls and

your husband telling you that,

"Mom, it's your time now."

Yeah, this is kind of weird 'cause,

you know, I didn't have the opportunity to

talk to my parents before this,

so it kind of threw me off.

I am very surprised my mom and dad wrote to me.

I don't think my parents are necessarily ecstatic that

I'm up here on this mountain.

They didn't wish me luck for this.

Being a first generation

Asian-American coming from

a family of immigrants,

it's hard growing up in the traditional Korean culture.

My parents are super strict.

They hate my tattoos.

They want me to have a higher status.

Like, they believe that happiness

comes with higher job statuses

and how much money you make.

They got tough Korean love,

but I know that they care.

"Hi, Dennis. We hope you're doing well.

"Your personality, as always, making others feel good

"will shine out there.

"Your smile and your dimples, since you were a kid,

"have never failed to warm our hearts.

"We are beyond proud of you and we love you so much.

Love, Mom and Dad."

Having them

tell me how proud they are of me--

it really meant a lot.

Having that letter come to me

just fueled even more fire in the tank for me to stay here.

I am playing the game really hard right now,

and having the people around me

see that vulnerability side--

I think that really showed a lot.

I don't want to go home.

JENNYE: Mine says, "Jennye,

"stay focused on the most important things.

And as always, you are loved. So proud of you."

-From my aunt. -THERRON: "No matter

"how old you get, you will always be

my little bright-eyed baby boy."

(clears throat)

It's my oldest brother.

He said, "Dusty, not many big brothers

"can say they have a little brother

"that they look up to.

"As Grandma has always said,

"when the going gets tough, the tough gets going.

Embrace your journey. Love, Daniel."

I am really close with all my brothers.

I wasn't able to read a ton of it 'cause, frankly,

I just get too choked up,

but it does give me the reminder that says,

"Hey, look, no matter what happens,

"you-you got to find a way to get up there

and you got to find a way to win this money."

BECKYLEE: "Stay focused,

"see your goals, see it to completion.

"No matter the outcome, know that I love you.

"I am so proud of you.

Love, your father. Go Gators."

(laughing)

AMY: How about we just have our

comfortable boots on, sit around the fire?

These are kind of... these are kind of stylish, too.

AMY: My little toes are so happy right now.

JEANNIE: I know.

These boots are awesome.

(laughing)

NICK: Oh, we got somebody coming.

Oh.

Trouble's coming.

Well, congratulations for reaching the halfway mark

to the summit.

(cheering)

JEANNIE: Halfway!

Which means each of you is either

halfway closer to winning

or halfway closer to losing

the ultimate cash prize.

I like the first half.

JEANNIE: I like the first... Yeah, exciting.

MANU: Well, I'm glad that you've gotten to this point.

I know it feels like a celebration, but with

every checkpoint camp,

you take a vote.

And somebody's gonna leave this mountain tonight.

It's tough after the moment we all just had with each other.

Yeah.

Shall I leave you to make the decision?

Yes, please.

Okay.

But, then again...

...no.

-Are you kidding me? -PUNKIN: What?

MANU: I told you a rule on the first day.

You remember what that rule was?

No one gets left behind.

You must travel together.

To stay together as a group.

The mountain keeper's been watching.

You've not been staying together.

DUSTY: Let's go.

Just keep going. I wouldn't stop.

-JENNYE: Nope. -PATI: Good God.

MANU: So, tonight, we're gonna have

a different vote.

And only two of you

are gonna be nominated for this vote.

It's going to be between the person

who is consistently the furthest behind

and the person who is consistently

pushing the lead.

Tonight, you will vote between

Pati...

...and Dusty.

(groaning)

Oh, my God.

(wind whistling)

(wind blowing)

MANU: The problem is

one of you has been going too slow

and one of you has been going too fast,

and the mountain keeper has seen it.

Tonight, you will vote

for either Pati or Dusty.

What?

PATI: I'm dumbfounded.

I've worked so hard where it's, like,

I don't want to leave everything behind.

AMY: Would you like to say something, Dusty?

DUSTY: I haven't really felt in jeopardy yet,

and so to be put in jeopardy

against someone who I have come to really, really

care about-- it's... doesn't sit right with me.

We knew the rules coming in. I should have been

more aggressively following those rules.

I'm gonna give you guys a minute.

Have a think about it.

We chose Dusty as our leader.

He never... he never volunteered.

This vote is tough for me.

Today, Dusty has been pushing

so hard to the point that being on that snow climb,

Pati was so far

over the ridgeline, I couldn't even see her.

We were explained the rules, day one. Stay together.

And we broke the rules.

(crying)

PATI: I love you.

BECKYLEE: I can't vote for Pati.

You know I love Dusty, but I can't vote for Pati.

I know. I know you can't.

And I-I can't vote for Dusty.

BECKYLEE: It's frustrating because during the hike,

Dusty was too aggressive, too fast.

DENNIS: This sucks.

BECKYLEE: Pati has been working

her butt off since day one.

She's always been in the back,

but she's always caught up. What happens

when you're in the back is that as soon as you catch up,

everyone keeps going,

so she's working double as hard

as anyone else here.

You know, I really see us

at the top of the summit together.

I'll do everything I need to to fight for her in this moment.

-Nobody expected this. -JEANNIE: Yeah, I agree.

We've been busting our ass.

I think, no matter what, we got to be...

I think we've got to be proud of

-how we've done so far. -I know.

-I'm proud of you. -Yeah.

God, D.

DUSTY: I'm taking good care of the group.

Whatever the team needs me to do,

I'm willing to do it, and I think Pati can do a lot,

but she can't do everything.

At the end of the day,

who gives us the best shot

at getting up to the summit?

I know that's me.

NICK: We forced Dusty

in the front.

I'm not gonna... I c... I ca-I can't do it.

I can't do it.

DENNIS: I-I don't think I can vote out Pati.

I'm actually, obviously,

we are closer to Pati than we are with Dusty.

Yeah, I'm so much closer to Pati.

I don't really know that much about Dusty.

DENNIS: I need Pati in this game. I need

her vote. I need her friendship out here

'cause she's looking out for me and I'm looking after her.

We still have made all these checkpoints.

That's where... that's where I'm, like, okay, like,

if we still make all these checkpoints,

we can still...

get Pati over there. She still

made it.

Pati is my number one girl. She is my mountain sister.

I'm gonna do everything I can to keep her around.

If I'm voting strictly on relationships...

-Yeah. -I would vote Dusty out.

But the problem is-is if Pati wasn't in the back,

we would not be in this situation.

I know. I know.

And if it continues to be like that,

then we're gonna be in this situation again.

-I know. -Which means no one's gonna

want to be in the front.

I think that's the hardest part, thinking with my head

versus thinking with emotion.

Pati is giving it her all, 100%.

This is not fair.

THERRON: And Dusty--

he didn't ask to be in the front.

I don't know who's gonna go home.

I have no clue.

It's just, my brain doesn't know

what to do. It's really hard.

I don't know if I'm ready to crush another dream.

(wind whistling)

You're such a kind person.

I appreciate you, Pati P.

I appreciate you so much, D.

Let's grab a seat.

AMY: Come on, Mama, right here.

It's just gonna get

harder and harder and harder.

MANU: You're right, Amy.

It is gonna get harder and harder.

You got to think about the rules,

and you got to stick together.

The whole point about reaching a summit

is working together as a group.

Do you see what's up there?

(wind whistling)

Do you see how steep it is?

I told you what this mountain was like.

It's dangerous.

It's only gonna get tougher. That's why you have to

stick together, stay as a group.

Now,

I want to see a vote of hands for Dusty.

Beckylee, Dennis,

you vote for Dusty.

I want to see a vote of hands

for Pati.

One, two, three, four, five, six.

Amy, why?

You think I wanted to vote for Pati?

'Cause guess who's after Pati

if this little game continues, it's me.

I'm not voting for Pati,

I just can't vote against Dusty.

He never asked to be first.

Ever.

Nobody wins in this vote.

Pati,

your time on the mountain's come to an end.

Yeah.

Go to the tent, grab your pack,

bring the money here,

share it amongst the group,

say your goodbyes.

I love you.

I love you guys.

Just be real.

The mountain has taught me

to stay true to myself

and push my limits

when I feel like I can't.

I'm sorry.

PATI: Take care.

I didn't quit. I'm extremely proud of myself

'cause I don't think that

I even could imagine the things

that I've done on this mountain.

I stayed true to who I am as a person.

I've learned which people I can completely trust

and which people

are not as authentic.

It's a lesson.

I have a lot of heart.

So, tomorrow, you're all gonna go toward the summit

carrying over $870,000.

That's a lot of weight to carry.

Have each other's backs.

You're halfway there.

And I can see a lot of tears.

But you're gonna have to toughen up.

DUSTY: I'm honored to still be here,

but in the back of my mind, I didn't actually think

that the group would vote me off.

I frankly think I'm the most useful,

and I think I bring a little bit more to the group

in terms of getting our chances up

to go to the summit.

After eight days,

we're only really at the halfway point.

This might just be

a demo of what's to come.

-BECKYLEE: I love you. -DUSTY: And you got to

find a way to win this money.

AMY: Pati just said

not to trust Nick.

I'm not sure why she said that.

Ever since our traversing challenge,

Nick and I have just kind of had an unspoken bond.

I think he's great,

so I don't know what to think.

I guess I'll see what tomorrow brings.

DENNIS: You know, the mountain keeper saved my dream,

but it also killed off a really good friend here.

To see Pati go, I was willing to

sacrifice my game for her, and I feel like

I did tonight, being the minority vote.

This game has just gotten uglier. I'm gonna

get some people back for her. I think they really

just killed a Korean cockroach

and just woke up the Korean bull.

DENNIS: That vote yesterday easily could've been me, so now

I need to do a lot of damage control.

So, does anybody feel

comfortable with handling the bags?

DUSTY: So who do we trust

-with all of our cash? -I-I would be fine with it.

-I do not trust Dennis at all. -NICK (whispering): Dennis.

THERRON: So, it's got to be unanimous?

AMY: I don't like to be told what to do. I'm not gonna

be swayed and told how to vote when it's my game.

-JEANNIE: Oh, my God! -DENNIS: This looks like it sucks.

JEANNIE: I have to close my eyes.

I want to reach the summit so bad.

-Aah! -THERRON: Yo,

-you got it! Oh, wait... -Oh, no, oh, no.

Aah!
