Narrator: THEY SURVIVED
IN PAIRS AND IN GROUPS,

AND NOW THE BEST OF THE BEST

ARE TAKING ON THEIR GREATEST
CHALLENGE YET --

TO SURVIVE 21 DAYS...

HOLY *BLEEP*

...WITH NO SUPPORT...

OH, MY GOD!

...NO ONE TO WATCH
THEIR BACK...

Man: THIS IS MY SHOT.

Narrator:
...COMPLETELY EXPOSED.



I'M TERRIFIED.

SO I'M BACK IN AFRICA.

IT'S ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
OUT HERE,

BUT BEAUTY USUALLY MEANS DEADLY.

LOOKING AROUND, IT'S LIKE A HERD
OF ELEPHANTS HAS COME THROUGH

AND JUST KNOCKED
EVERYTHING DOWN,

SO THERE'S GONNA BE
A LOT OF ELEPHANT ACTION HERE.

I'M BOTH EXCITED AND NERVOUS.

MY NAME IS LACEY JONES.

I'M FROM DU QUOIN, ILLINOIS,

AND THIS WILL BE
MY FOURTH CHALLENGE.

I AM SUPER EXCITED
THAT I'M BACK IN AFRICA.

MAJOR DIFFERENCES THIS TIME.

I'M BY MYSELF,
AND I'M GONNA PROVE



THAT I CAN MAKE IT
ALONE IN AFRICA.

Narrator: LACEY HAS
PREVIOUSLY PARTICIPATED

IN THREE "NAKED AND AFRAID"
CHALLENGES.

TO ESTABLISH HER
SOLO SURVIVAL RATING,

OR SSR, LACEY'S PAST CHALLENGES
WERE EVALUATED

USING THREE CRITERIA --

SELF-RELIANCE, MENTAL
TOUGHNESS, AND SKILLS.

ON LACEY'S 21-DAY CHALLENGE
IN BELIZE,

SHE SHOWED SOLID FISHING AND
FORAGING SKILLS TO PROCURE FOOD.

LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GONNA
BE EATING REALLY GOOD TONIGHT.

WHEN HER PARTNER TAPPED
ON DAY 12,

SHE SHOWED GREAT SELF-RELIANCE.

Lacey: I'M JUST A SURVIVOR,

AND I'M GONNA CONTINUE SURVIVING
UNTIL DAY 21.

Narrator:
BUT ALTHOUGH SHE SURVIVED

THE REMAINING 9 DAYS ALONE...

I'M GONNA FINISH!

Narrator: ...SHE STRUGGLED
WITH THE SOLITUDE.

THE MENTAL PORTION
IS JUST KICKING MY ASS.

Narrator: ON HER 40-DAY
CHALLENGE IN THE AMAZON,

LACEY'S PERSISTENCE
WITH FISHING HELPED

SAVE HER TEAM FROM STARVATION.

GOT HIM.
LOOK AT THAT PERFECT SHOT.

BUT A KNEE INJURY HAD HER
TAPPING OUT ON DAY 9.

SHE SOUGHT REDEMPTION ON
AN XL CHALLENGE IN AFRICA...

AH, GOT HIM
WITH MY *BLEEP* HAND.

...BUT CLASHED WITH
HER TEAMMATES...

Man #2: YOU LEFT WITH
THE FIRE STARTER.

ON ACCIDENT.THAT'S IRRELEVANT.

THAT'S ANOTHER PART
OF YOUR NARCISSISTIC ATTITUDE.

Narrator:
...AND LEFT THE GROUP.

I DON'T REALLY WANT
TO SHARE A BOMA.

THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THIS GROUP
THAT DON'T WANT ME HERE.

Woman:
DON'T EXCLUDE YOURSELF

AND THEN SAY THAT
WE DON'T WANT YOU HERE.

Narrator: THE TEAM DYNAMICS
AND A NASTY BURN TO HER HAND

LED HER TO ABANDON
THE CHALLENGE ONCE AGAIN.

I'M DONE, AND I'M SORRY.

I WANT TO GO HOME, GUYS.

SHE BEGINS THIS NEW CHALLENGE

WITH A SOLO SURVIVAL
RATING OF 7.2.

Lacey: SO MY LAST TWO
CHALLENGES, I TAPPED OUT,

AND I STARTED MY SOLO JOURNEY
LAST TIME I WAS IN AFRICA.

I ENDED IT SHORT, AND THIS TIME,
I AM GOING TO FINISH IT.

THIS IS MY CHANCE.

I DON'T HAVE ANYBODY
HOLDING ME BACK.

I DON'T HAVE ANYBODY
HOLDING ME UP.

I'M GONNA PROVE TO MYSELF
AND TO EVERYONE

THAT I HAVE SKILLS.

I CAN DO THIS.

ALRIGHT.

HERE I GO.

OKAY.

MY BAG.

Narrator: FOR THIS CHALLENGE,
LACEY WAS ALLOWED TO CHOOSE

JUST THREE ESSENTIAL ITEMS
TO KEEP HER ALIVE.

Lacey: OKAY, I HAVE MY AXE,

WHICH I BRING WITH ME
PRETTY MUCH EVERY TIME

I COME TO AFRICA, SO...

Narrator: LACEY IS ALSO EQUIPPED
WITH A BUG NET

AND A FIRE STARTER.

AND A MAP.

I'M, LIKE, RIGHT HERE.

LOOKS LIKE THERE'S A RIVER,
SO I HAVE TO FIND THAT.

SO IT LOOKS LIKE
I AM HEADED NORTH.

OKAY.

NOTHING HOLDING ME BACK.

Narrator:
TO REACH HER WATER SOURCE,

LACEY WILL HAVE TO TRAVERSE
LIMPOQUINA'S UNFORGIVING TERRAIN

BRIMMING WITH RAZOR-SHARP ACACIA
AND BUFFALO THORNS.

WITH NO ONE TO WATCH HER BACK,

SHE'S POTENTIALLY EASY PREY
FOR THE AREA'S MANY LEOPARDS

AND LIONS WHO USE
THE LIMPOPO RIVER

AS THEIR WATER SOURCE AND
STALK PREY FROM THE TALL GRASS.

BUT HER BIGGEST DANGER WILL BE
THE MASSIVE HERDS OF ELEPHANTS

MIGRATING THROUGH THE AREA

ALSO IN SEARCH OF WATER
DURING THE DRY SEASON.

MOTHER ELEPHANTS WON'T THINK
TWICE ABOUT TRAMPLING LACEY

IF THEY THINK
SHE'S A THREAT TO THEIR YOUNG.

ONCE SHE REACHES THE RIVER,

SHE'LL CONTEND WITH FIERCE
FRESHWATER CROCODILES.

THEIR POWERFUL JAWS CAN SNAP
HUMAN LIMBS IN TWO.

Lacey: WE'LL SEE
IF I CAN FIND ANY WATER.

OH, YEAH, THERE'S WATER.

THIS IS THE RIVER
THAT WAS ON THE MAP.

IS THAT MY OWN PERSONAL ISLAND
RIGHT THERE?

I CAN DIG THAT.

SEE IF I CAN MAKE IT.

EEH! I LOVE IT.

OH, MY GOSH.
I'M SO THIRSTY.

♪♪

Narrator:
WHEN DIGGING A GYPSY WELL,

WATER RISES FROM THE GROUND

AND FILTERS THROUGH SAND
AND SEDIMENT,

WHICH CAN HELP CLEANSE
THE WATER OF HARMFUL IMPURITIES

THAT CAN CAUSE NAUSEA
AND VOMITING.

Lacey: DIGGING MY GYPSY WELL,
AND I'M CONCERNED

BECAUSE THE WATER IS NOT,
LIKE, SUPER COLD.

USUALLY THE COLDER IT IS,
THE CLEANER IT IS.

RELATIVELY CLOSE TO MY SHELTER,

WHOO!

I WANT THAT BAD.

AND IF ALL OF THAT ISN'T ENOUGH
TO FORCE ME BACK INTO THAT BOMA,

THEN THAT IN ITSELF HAS GOT
TO SHOW YOU HOW BADLY

I DO NOT WANT
TO GO BACK IN THERE.

ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT IS DOING
ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING

I CAN TO NOT
BE ALONE IN THAT CAGE.

I'M DONE.

I JUST CAN'T BE IN IT.

IT DOESN'T MATTER, GUYS.
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.

I CAN'T PHYSICALLY STAY THERE.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

I CANNOT PHYSICALLY GO IN THERE

AND STAY IN THERE
ONE MORE NIGHT.

THIS IS MY END.

THIS IS HOW IT ENDS FOR ME.

I'VE HIT MY LIMIT.

IT IS DAY 18,

AND I AM TAPPING OUT
OF MY "ALONE" CHALLENGE.

I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING I CAN TO
PUSH THROUGH EVERY SINGLE NIGHT.

I'M SORRY, BUT THAT'S IT.

I CAN'T DO ANYMORE.

AFRICA HAS PROVIDED FOR ME,

AND I COULD LIVE OUT HERE
FOREVER,

BUT I CAN'T DO IT ALONE.

THANK YOU.

YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND
UNLESS YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH IT.

I KNOW I AM A STRONG,
CAPABLE WOMAN.

NO ONE WILL EVER TAKE THAT
FROM ME,

BUT HUMAN BEINGS
WEREN'T MEANT TO BE ISOLATED.

I DID MY ABSOLUTE BEST.

I AM *BLEEP* PROUD OF MYSELF, SO
EVERYONE ELSE CAN JUST SUCK IT.

Narrator:
DURING HER 18 DAYS IN AFRICA,

LACEY LOST A TOTAL OF 20 POUNDS.

THE ISOLATION BROKE HER
ONLY THREE DAYS SHY

OF FINISHING HER CHALLENGE,

LOWERING HER SOLO
SURVIVAL RATING TO 6.6.

THIS IS HOW

I'M SUPPOSED TO BE
SPENDING MY NIGHTS,

WITH MY BEAUTIFUL BABIES.

MOMMY HAD SUCH A HARD TIME
SLEEPING WITHOUT YOU.

I MISSED YOU, YOU KNOW?
