CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY
DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS

HOT AS.

JUST GIVE ME A COUPLE MINUTES
TO COOL DOWN HERE,

GET SOME WATER, HYDRATE,
AND I'LL START CLEARING
OUT THE BOMA SPACE.

YOU KNOW, SO WE CAN HAVE
A COMFORTABLE PLACE

TO LIVE FOR
THE NEXT TWO WEEKS.

AND LACEY DECIDES
THAT SHE DOESN'T WANT TO BE

A PART OF OUR
BIG EIGHT ANYMORE.

SHE'S A VERY SELFISH PERSON.
I WILL SAY.

WE'RE ALL JUST TRYING
TO WORK TOGETHER.

YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE SAFETY, ALSO.



TO BRANCH OUT ON YOUR OWN
CAN BE SO DANGEROUS.

I AM STRUGGLING.

I'M TRYING TO BUILD UP MY BOMA
WITH ONE HAND,

AND THERE'S LEOPARD ACTIVITY
IN THE AREA,

AND THEY'RE SUPERPREDATORS.

BUT I'M NOT,
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,

GOING BACK TO THAT SITUATION.

DOES ANYBODY WANT TO GO
WITH ME TO GO GET MEAT

FROM THAT DEAD NYALA
THAT I FOUND?

I'M GONNA WALK BACK
AND GET BACKSTRAP.

- WHAT DO YOU THINK?
-NO.

- NO. DEFINITELY NOT.
-I'M GONNA WORK ON THE BOMA.

I GOT TO STAY AND WORK ON THE
SHELTER. I'M NOT GONNA RISK IT.

UM...



GARY FOUND A DEAD NYALA,

AND I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT WANT
TO EAT THAT MEAT,

BECAUSE I LOOKED AT IT,
AND IT SMELLS LIKE DEATH.

AND RIGHT NOW MY NUMBER-ONE
CONCERN OUT HERE IS SHELTER.

THERE'S A LOT OF WORK TO
DO BEFORE WE CAN THINK
ABOUT EATING SOMETHING.

I'M IN A RACE RIGHT NOW
AGAINST A LEOPARD.

ME AND A LEOPARD ARE FIGHTING
FOR THAT MEAT RIGHT NOW.

YES, YOU ARE.

I MEAN, IF YOU GUYS DON'T WANT
TO EAT IT, I'LL GO EAT IT.

- WHERE'S A PULASKI?
-OVER BY YOUR SPEAR.

TO PASS UP THAT NYALA? ASSUMING
YOU'RE GONNA GET A KILL?

THAT'S NOT SMART.

MY BEHAVIOR IS IN
THE REALM OF A REAL

"YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO EAT
AGAIN" SURVIVAL SITUATION.

- I CAN COME.
-ALL RIGHT. LET'S DO THIS.

OKAY.

YOU'RE GONNA EAT THE BEST
YOU'VE EVER HAVE.

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.

- THANKS FOR COMING WITH ME.
-ABSOLUTELY.

WHILE THERE'S FOOD,
I NEED TO EAT IT.

EXACTLY.
I'M NOT GONNA ASSUME

THE MEAT'S GONNA
BE AROUND TOMORROW,

OR EVEN IN AN HOUR.

I SPENT THE MAJORITY OF
THE CHALLENGE WITH NO FOOD.

14 DAYS WITHOUT EATING, AGAIN,
IS GONNA DO ME IN.

ABSOLUTELY.

WE'RE RACING AGAINST
A LEOPARD RIGHT NOW.

BATTLING A LEOPARD
FOR THE MEAT.

THAT'S RIGHT.

BIG ANIMAL.

AND I CAN TELL
IT'S A FRESH KILL.

YOU KNOW,
IT HAS A SMELL, BUT...

IT'S NOT RANCID.
THAT'S FOR SURE.

THERE'S THAT SMELL.

AS SOON AS YOU PUSHED
ON THE ABDOMEN,

I GUESS IT RELEASED
SOME FUMES FROM INSIDE.

IT'S A DIRTY JOB,
AND GARY'S GOT TO DO IT.

I NEED SO MUCH FILLER.

WE GOT TO GET A ROOF.

GARY'S DOWN GETTING HIS MEAT,

BUT HE NEEDS TO HELP
BUILD SHELTER.

THERE'S LEOPARDS AROUND,

SO HAVING A SECURE BOMA
IS IMPORTANT.

AND WE NEED THE AX. THERE'S
A LOT OF STUFF LIKE THIS.

BUT UNTIL GARY GETS BACK
WITH IT, WE CAN'T CHOP IT DOWN.

MAN, WE REALLY NEED THAT
PULASKI RIGHT NOW, DON'T WE?

YEAH. YEAH. YEAH.

WE NEED THAT PULASKI
TO BUILD SHELTER,

NOT TO HARVEST MEAT.

LOOK AT THAT.
IT'S COMING RIGHT OFF.

WASTE NOT, WANT NOT.
THAT'S HOW I LIVE.

YOU'RE DOIN' GOOD, GARY.

I ALMOST FEEL LIKE WE SHOULD
JUST TAKE THE HEAD.

YEAH.
LET'S TAKE THE HEAD.

ALL RIGHT. I'LL HOLD IT.
YOU CHOP.

IN MY REGULAR LIFE,

I WOULD BE FAR AWAY
FROM THIS PROCESS.

BUT THIS IS NOT MY NORMAL LIFE.

I'M OUT IN THE BUSH OF AFRICA...

AND I'M STARVING SLOWLY...
TO DEATH.

AHH.

THERE YOU GO, GARY.

THAT HEAD HAS GOT
SO MUCH MEAT IN IT.

WE'RE GONNA EAT GOOD.

YOU KNOW WHO'S GONNA
BE BAT- MAD?

THAT LEOPARD WITH THAT
200-MILE TERRITORY.

HE'S GONNA BE MAD AS.

MAD THERE'S THIS HUMAN SMELL
THAT SCAVENGED HIS KILL

WHEN HE GOES BACK THERE
LATER ON TONIGHT TO EAT.

WE NEED THIS SHELTER
BUILT TONIGHT.

I'M WORRIED ABOUT
THE LEOPARD, MAN.

COULD TRACK US DOWN
IN MINUTES.

HOPE THEY'RE ALL
GRATEFUL FOR THIS.

80 MORE POUNDS OF MEAT.

NYALA HEAD.
NYALA BACKSTRAP.

WE CAN'T HAVE THAT HEAD
ANYWHERE NEAR OUR CAMP.

IT'LL ATTRACT
SO MUCH BAD STUFF.

IS IT PROCESSED? OR IS IT STILL
ATTACHED TO THE ANIMAL?

IT'S A WHOLE HEAD.

WE'RE STOKED.
WE'RE PIGGIN' OUT.

- WE'RE STILL IFFY.
-AH. ALL RIGHT.

IF YOU GUYS ARE IFFY,
I'M GONNA BE HONEST...

I'M GONNA TALK.
I'M GONNA MAKE FUN OF YOU.

- THAT'S BOTTOM LINE.
-BUT YOU SHOULD BE HAPPY.

IT'S MORE MEAT FOR YOU.

I'D BE HAPPIER, ACTUALLY,
IF YOU GUYS ATE IT, SO...

WE JUST WANT TO
MAKE SURE IT'S SAFE.

- THIS IS GOOD.
-ALL RIGHT.

I'LL GRAB MY KNIFE
AND GO HELP HIM.

THIS HEAD DOES NOT
SMELL OF DEATH.

THIS HEAD SMELLS OF LIFE!

SMELLS OF LIFE!

OH,.

GARY WILL NOT BACK DOWN
WHEN HE HAS AN IDEA.

SO I'LL HELP PROCESS IT.

BUT I AM JUST GOING TO EVALUATE
AND DO WHAT'S BEST FOR SURVIVAL.

I'M LOOKING FOR
DARK, RED, JUICY MEAT...

THAT DOESN'T
SMELL LIKE DEATH.

WHEN EXPOSED TO
TEMPERATURES OVER 40 DEGREES,

THE DEADLY BACTERIA
AND PARASITES

FOUND IN RAW MEAT
SPREAD EXPONENTIALLY

AND, IF INGESTED, CAN CAUSE
SERIOUS INTESTINAL ISSUES,

SUCH AS DYSENTERY.

I'M HUNGRY.
AND THIS IS SURVIVAL.

WE'RE NOT FRIENDS HERE.

BUT I HOPE THAT
THEY SHARE THE MEAT.

HEY, GARY?

- YEAH?
-HOW'S IT GOIN'?

- WE HAVE STEAK.
-OH, WOW.

AND YOU'RE WELCOME TO EAT
A TON OF MEAT.

AWESOME.

SOME OF THIS MEAT
LOOKS GOOD.

THAT'S THE
BEST MEAT SO FAR.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S
RISK AND REWARD.

IF YOU EAT THE BAD MEAT,
YOU'RE DONE.

OH, I'LL EAT THIS.

BUT THAT'S IN THE PAN,
SO I THINK IT'S STILL OKAY.

BUT THIS
I DO NOT THINK IS OKAY.

IT'S STARTING TO ROT.

- ARE YOU GONNA EAT THIS?
-YEAH.

ALL RIGHT. GOOD LUCK.

I AM NOT TOUCHING
THIS MEAT TONIGHT.

I HAVE A PRETTY GOOD STOMACH,

AND I HAVE PRETTY GOOD JUDGMENT
OF WHEN MEAT IS BAD.

I GREW UP ON
THE POOR SIDE OF TOWN,

SO I'M USED TO EATING
WEEKS-OLD MEAT.

I MEAN,
IF IT DOESN'T SMELL RANCID

AND IT DOESN'T HAVE, LIKE,
A GOOEY TEXTURE TO IT,

YOU'RE FINE.

JUST EAT IT.

- PRIORITY NUMBER ONE...
-SHELTER?

SHELTER. SURVIVAL.

NOT BEING HUNTED BY AN ANIMAL
THAT WE TOOK ITS FOOD FROM.

THAT DISGUSTING,
ROTTING KILL IS A NO-GO.

I DON'T MIND SCAVENGING
A LITTLE BIT FROM A LEOPARD,

BUT HE TOOK THE
WHOLE HEAD.

THIS IS AN IMMENSE
AMOUNT OF MEAT.

WE WERE NOT READY FOR THIS.

WHEN ARE WE GONNA BE
READY FOR IT, YOU KNOW?

UNFORTUNATELY,
I DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY

TO BUILD A BOMA
IN THREE HOURS.

I KNOW. WE GOT TO GET
GARY AND SARAH IN ON
HELPING US BUILD THIS.

NUMBER-ONE PRIORITY
RIGHT NOW IS SHELTER.

LISTEN. MELISSA.

HE'S GONNA DO WHAT
HE WANTS TO DO, AND THAT'S IT.

SO IT'S UP TO US
TO GET THIS BOMA SECURE.

WE'LL PROBABLY
JUST HAVE A BONFIRE

AND SLEEPING
AROUND IT TONIGHT.

WE'RE JUST GONNA HAVE TO
KEEP OUR FIRE HIGH.

- YEAH. WITH WHAT WOOD?
- THIS IS A NIGHTMARE.

DEFINITELY THE MOST
DANGEROUS LOCATION I'VE BEEN AT.

I AM IN THE MIDDLE
OF A NIGHTMARE IN AFRICA.

EVERYONE'S UNIFIED,
IT ALWAYS GOES SMOOTHER.

BUT WE GOT GARY AND SARAH
COOKING MEAT.

AND WE GOT LACEY
DOING HER OWN THING.

AND THEN THE REST OF US
ARE WORKING ON THE BOMA.

I BADLY NEED FOOD.

THE REWARD WOULD BE THE ABILITY
TO CONTINUE WITH THE CHALLENGE.

THE RISK WOULD BE

POSSIBLY DEBILITATING
RANCID-MEAT DISEASE.

THEY PUT US IN HELL.

AND MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS
THERE'S PREDATORS OUT HERE.

AND BRINGING THE ENTIRE
HEAD INTO THIS AREA,

IT'S RISKY.

PLEASE LORD,
DON'T LET OUR MISTAKES

GET SOMEBODY HURT OUT HERE.

'CAUSE WE ARE MAKING CATACLYSMIC
MISTAKES ON THIS CONTINENT.

WHO THE
IS SCREAMING LIKE TARZAN?

- ARE YOU SERIOUS?
- WHAT THE?!

CHECK IT OUT.

- NO WAY.
-WHAT?

CHECK IT OUT.

WHO THE IS
SCREAMING LIKE TARZAN?

- WHAT?
-HEY, NAKED PEOPLE!

I FOUND YOU!

NO WAY! SHUT UP!

CHECK IT OUT.

WHAT THE HELL'S
GOING ON HERE?

HOLY HELL!
I FOUND YOU!

- AAH!
-WHAT'S UP, MELISSA?

- NICE TO MEET YOU.
-IT'S A PLEASURE.

WHOO!

IT IS FREAKIN' MATT WRIGHT.
HE WAS ON "XL" 3.

OH, HELL YES.

AND THERE HAS NOT BEEN
ONE DAY OUT HERE

THAT I HAVE NOT THOUGHT,
"WHAT WOULD MATT WRIGHT DO?"

I GET TO SPEND TWO WEEKS OUT
HERE LEARNING FROM THE BEST.

I LOVE YOU.

IS IT JUST YOU?

- JUST ME.
-REALLY?!

- YEAH.
-THAT'S AMAZING.

IT'S BEEN AN EPIC WALK
TO FIND Y'ALL.

I'VE JUST BEEN OUT HERE SOLO,
JUST GOIN' LIKE HELL.

24 DAYS AGO,
MATT ENTERED THE AFRICAN BUSH

ON A SOLO QUEST FOR REDEMPTION.

SINCE THEN, HIS WORLD-CLASS
HUNTING SKILLS...

WHOO! JUNGLE WARRIOR
JUST STRUCK AGAIN.

...HAVE ALLOWED HIM TO STOCKPILE
A HUGE AMOUNT OF PROTEIN.

FRICKIN' LIVIN' LIKE A KING
IN AFRICA RIGHT NOW.

BUT THE EFFECTS OF ISOLATION
BEGAN TO TAKE THEIR TOLL.

WHEN YOU'RE OUT HERE
LONG ENOUGH, YOU REALLY GET

TO THE POINT
OF LACKING SOME FRIENDSHIP.

I HAVE BEEN TO EVERY ONE
OF YOUR VILLAGES.

REALLY?

- WHAT?!
-YEAH.

EVERY TIME I GOT THERE,
YOU WERE MOVED OUT.

TOOK 24 DAYS TO FIND
MY NAKED FAMILY.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.
I AM VERY HAPPY I MADE THE MOVE.

I WOULD'VE TRAVELED
50 MILES MORE TO FIND THEM.

IT'S AN EPIC DAY RIGHT NOW.

YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'VE
BEEN MORE SUCCESSFUL

THAN ALL OF US
PUT TOGETHER.

I'M ON A 100% MEAT DIET.

MATT SEEMS LIKE
A STRONG TEAM MEMBER.

EVEN I RESPECT MATT.

BUT I FEEL LIKE WE WERE
KIND OF KICKING BUTT ALREADY.

NOW WE'RE GONNA KICK MORE BUTT.

- AHH.
-YOU GUYS HUNGRY AT ALL?

- YEAH.
-WHAT YOU GOT?

I G-- HERE. DIG IN.

I'VE GOT IMPALA.

- SOME OF IT'S WARTHOGS.
-OH, MY GOSH.

IT'S -- I MEAN, I HAVE MORE
THAN THIS, SO DIG IN.

WHAT ABOUT YOU GUYS?
YOU GUYS HAVE ANY LUCK?

NOTHING.

NO.

WE'RE COOKING UP A BUNCH
OF STEAKS RIGHT NOW.

YEAH. THAT MEAT,
WE'RE NOT EATING.

--OH, WOW.

I WAS THE ONLY ONE
HERE WITH MEAT,

THE ONLY ONE COOKING MEAT,
FOR EVERYBODY.

AND MATT'S HERE,
AND NOBODY CARES.

THE KILL THAT GARY'S WORKING ON
IS FROM A LEOPARD.

- IT'S NOT GOOD.
-IT SMELLS LIKE DEATH.

THAT LEOPARD
WILL BE MAD AS.

WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH
FIREWOOD FOR ONE NIGHT.

WE'VE JUST BEEN BUILDING.

WE HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE
TO REALLY LOOK AROUND YET.

TRYING TO SCRAMBLE
BEFORE THE SUN GOES DOWN.

- WELCOME TO YOUR NEW HOME.
-WE GOT A LOT TO DO.

AHH.

I WENT FROM JUST MYSELF
GETTING FIREWOOD

AND EVERYTHING ELSE THAT I HAD
TO DO FOR THE LAST 24 DAYS

TO VOICES EVERYWHERE,
COMMOTION EVERYWHERE.

GOT TO GO LEFT.

IT'S -- IT'S CRAZY.

TIMBER.

WHAT AN ALL-MEAT DIET
WILL DO FOR YOU.

MATT WRIGHT SHOWED UP.

AND HE BROUGHT WITH HIM
LOTS AND LOTS OF JERKY.

IT'S LIKE BREATHING LIFE
INTO A DYING GROUP.

- NOW, THAT'S A HUNTER.
-YEAH.

BECAUSE MATT CAME ALONG
AND BROUGHT A WHOLE BUNCH

OF THIS NICE DRIED MEAT,

I DON'T NEED ANY OF GARY'S MEAT.

YEP. NOT REAL LIGHT.

THAT'S THE BIGGEST LOG
I'VE EVER SEEN.

I KNOW.

WE LOVE MATT.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

I JUST BECAME USELESS.

WELL, OUT HERE,
THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS

TO ANYONE IS KILLS AND HUNTING.

IN THE SOCIAL SETTING,
MORE THAN LIKELY,

I HAVE NOW JUST BECOME
A COG IN A WHEEL.

OHH.

I SHOWED UP, AND LACEY
HAS HER OWN SEPARATE SHELTER.

I REALIZED HOW HARD IT IS
TO DO IT SOLO.

YOU SHOULD BE WORKING
AS SMART AS POSSIBLE.

SO ONE LITTLE SHELTER
FOR ONE PERSON?

A LOT OF EXTRA WORK, AND MAYBE
YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THAT.

DO YOU NEED ANY HELP
ON YOUR BOMA?

NO.

WHY DID YOU BUILD AN APARTMENT
ALL BY YOURSELF OVER THERE?

EVERYONE IS FIGHTING.

EVERYONE'S JUST YELLING
AND FREAKING OUT.

AND I CAN'T DEAL
WITH THIS.

SO I HAVE MY OWN BOMA

BECAUSE I CANNOT STAND
THE WHOLE SOCIAL DYNAMIC.

I DON'T BLAME YOU.

- OH..

- GROUP DYNAMICS.
-YEAH.

YOU'VE ONLY MET
THESE PEOPLE TODAY.

YEP. THIS IS TRUE.

MATT'S A GOOD GUY.

WE WERE BOTH IN ECUADOR
IN MY LAST CHALLENGE.

BUT I THINK I'M GONNA
STILL STAY IN MY BOMA.

IT DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT
THAT I'M NOT FITTING IN

WITH THE SOCIAL DYNAMIC
IN THE GROUP.

SO FRUSTRATING.

THE SUN IS FADING FAST.

BUT GARY HAS A VERY SMELLY
SECTION OF MEAT

JUST SITTING 70 METERS
FROM THE CAMP.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S CONCERN.

WE'RE IN PREDATOR-RICH
ENVIRONMENT RIGHT HERE.

THIS IS AN AREA
THAT LEOPARDS WOULD LOVE.

CHECK IT OUT.
I'M GONNA COOK THIS AND EAT IT.

IT'S BEEN HERE ALL DAY,
BUT IT WAS BRIGHT, RED,

AND FRESH WHEN
I CUT IT OFF TODAY.

THERE ARE SOME INDICATIONS
YOU CAN SEE IN ITS MOUTH.

AND THE HEAD ITSELF, BECAUSE
IT IS SO CLOSE TO ALL THAT,

IT'S ALL THE BACTERIA
OF THE MOUTH.

THAT'S GONNA GO BAD.

BUT, I MEAN,
I'VE GOT ENOUGH MEAT

THAT YOU GUYS
DON'T HAVE TO EAT IT.

IT'S GETTING TO THE POINT
OF NO RETURN.

YEAH.

I DID MY BEST TODAY
WITH THIS.

AND I'M GONNA DRAG IT
OVER THERE ON THAT BANK...

GET IT AS FAR AWAY AS I CAN
TONIGHT FROM OUR BOMA.

ALL RIGHT.
I GOT MY BOMA DOOR,

AND I'LL BRING THIS SHUT.

AND THEN, UH, MY MEAT.

WELL-DONE IS PROBABLY
THE BEST WAY TO GO

WHEN YOU'RE DEALING
WITH SCAVENGE.

LOOKIT.

IT'S GOOD, THOUGH. MMM.

I'M JUST GONNA
START BOILING IT.

- SERIOUSLY?
-YEAH.

THIS IS THE REAL TOUGH
PART OF SURVIVAL RIGHT HERE,

TO WHERE YOU PROGRAM YOUR BRAIN
TO ZONE IN

AND TO LOVE AND LIKE
AND APPRECIATE THE SMELL OF...

UH...

DEAD MEAT WITH MAGGOTS.

SURVIVAL IS A STATE OF MIND.

IF YOU WON'T EAT MAGGOTS,
YOU'RE NOT WILLING TO SURVIVE.

- UGH.
-MAN.

THIS IS SO GROSS.
CAN YOU SMELL THAT?

DEFINITELY SMELLS
LIKE.

IT SMELLS LIKE DEATH.

IN A SURVIVAL SITUATION,
IF YOU ARE STARVING

AND YOU MIGHT DIE
OF STARVATION, EAT IT.

IF YOU ARE NOT DYING
OF STARVATION,

IT IS ACTUALLY A WORSE STRATEGY,

BECAUSE NOW YOU
COULD GIVE YOURSELF

A GIANT SPECTRUM
OF FOODBORNE ILLNESS.

NYALA STEAK.
DELICIOUS.

GARY'S FIRST CHALLENGE,
HE ATE POISONOUS FRUIT.

APPARENTLY HE HAS NOT
LEARNED HIS LESSON.

CAMU FRUIT.

THEY TASTE BASICALLY
LIKE EATING PINE-SOL.

THAT'S TANNIC ACID.

UGH!

MEDIC!

I AM REALLY WORRIED
ABOUT GARY AND LACEY,

AND I REALLY HOPE THAT
THAT DOES NOT MAKE THEM SICK.

I'M STILL NOT EATING IT.

ALL RIGHT. MY BOMA
IS CLOSED FOR THE NIGHT.

THE FIRE'S GOING.

AND I'M LISTENING TO MATT
OVER AT THE BIG BOMA,

AND HE'S TELLING STORIES

OF ALL OF HIS AMAZING HUNTS
THAT HE'S BEEN ON.

I'M WATCHING THEM
COME IN, COME IN.

IT'S VERY, VERY RIVETING.

THEY'RE OVER THERE
TALKING.

AH..

LACEY?

LACEY?

GARY'S MEAT MADE ME SICK.

I MADE A JUDGMENT CALL.

I WANTED TO SEE IF I COULD
HOLD IT DOWN OR NOT, AND...

I WAS NOT ABLE TO.

CAN'T CATCH A BREAK.

- THOSE HAVEN'T STOPPED?
-YEAH.

LACEY CLAIMS
SHE GOT SICK FROM THE MEAT.

I'VE BEEN EATING IT
NON-STOP, RAVENOUSLY.

EVERY CHANCE I CAN,
I JUST PICK IT UP AND EAT IT.

I FEEL GOOD. I FEEL STRONG.

AS A SURVIVALIST, I DON'T PASS
UP OPPORTUNITIES LIKE THIS.

IT'S JUST NOT SMART TO ME.

HOW'S YOUR
STOMACH FEELING?

LIKE NOT
WATCHING YOU EAT THAT.

I'M NOT A WHINER BY ANY MEANS,
BUT IT'S JUST ADDING UP.

EVERYTHING'S
JUST ADDING UP.

I...

I'M JUST READY TO GO HOME.

- YEAH.
-AND I THINK THAT'S OKAY.

BUT I DON'T WANT YOU TO GO HOME
AND THEN REGRET GOING HOME.

YEAH.

THIS IS THE BEST THING
FOR ME, I THINK.

I'M DONE.

I'M AT MY LOWEST POINT.

EVERY NERVE ON MY HAND
IS THROBBING RIGHT NOW,

AND THEY SAID SOME
REALLY HURTFUL THINGS.

I DON'T WANT TO BE AROUND PEOPLE
THAT THINK THAT POORLY OF ME.

I'M ANGRY.

I DON'T WANT TO BE HERE
WITH THESE PEOPLE.

. I'M DONE.

I GET IT, YOU WANT ME TO STAY,
BUT I'M NOT STAYING.

I CAN'T DO ANYTHING.

I CAN'T DO THIS.
I'M DONE. AND I'M SORRY.

I WANT TO GO HOME, GUYS.

PART OF SURVIVAL
IS WORKING AS A TEAM.

BUT THESE PEOPLE
AREN'T INTERESTED

IN GETTING ALONG WITH ME,

AND I CANNOT SURVIVE
PHYSICALLY WITH ONE HAND.

AFRICA DOES NOT
MAKE THINGS EASY.

- LACEY TAPPED OUT.

SHE DIDN'T SAY
GOODBYE OR ANYTHING?

- IS SHE GONE?
-YEAH. SHE LEFT.

OH, SHE DIDN'T
SAY GOODBYE.

I THINK SHE'S MAKING
THE RIGHT MOVE.

YOU CAN'T DO THIS ON YOUR OWN
IF YOU'RE NOT MENTALLY TOUGH.

I CAME OUT HERE
FOR REDEMPTION, BUT...

I'M OVER THE WHOLE DEAL.

BUT I WAS THE CRAZY ONE
THAT DIDN'T KNOW

HOW TO WORK IN SOCIAL GROUPS.

IT'S JUST VERY INDICATIVE OF THE
WAY THAT SHE TREATED ME HERE,

THAT SHE WOULD NOT COME OVER
AND SAY GOODBYE TO ME.

THAT'S FINE. DON'T CARE.

- OH, THE MEAT'S GONE.
-I KNOW. I FEEL SO BAD.

- WE SHOULD'VE RATIONED THAT.
-WE SHOULD'VE RATIONED THAT.

I DIDN'T EXPECT IT
TO BE GONE THAT SOON.

YEAH..

I FED SOME HUNGRY PEOPLE.

I HAD FOOD THAT WOULD'VE
LASTED ME TILL DAY 40.

THAT FOOD IS NOW GONE.

- YOU WANT TO HUNT, TRENT?
-YEAH.

- OH, YEAH.
- DEFINITELY. I'D BE HAPPY TO GO.

TRY TO HUNT
TO FIND GAME TRAIL.

KIND OF BETWEEN THESE
MOUNTAINS HERE.

- OKAY.
-YOU WANT TO GO WITH, MISSUS?

YEAH.

SEEMS LIKE THEY'VE BEEN
UNSUCCESSFUL HUNTING LARGE GAME.

SO I HOPE THAT I CAN HELP THEM

AND SHOW THEM
WHAT I'VE LEARNED...

AND HAVE US ALL EATING
FRESH MEAT REGULARLY.

LET'S ROCK 'N' ROLL.
HOPEFULLY WE GET SOME ACTION.

We are stalking.

I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN EAT
ALL THIS MEAT.

DON'T PASS THIS UP RIGHT NOW.
I MEAN, THEY MIGHT GET A KILL.

HOPEFULLY. IF HE'S
A GOOD ENOUGH HUNTER.

BUT YOU REALLY SHOULD.

- WHAT'D YOU KILL?
-WE FOUND SOME GOOD TRAILS.

WIN SOME,
AND YOU LOSE SOME.

--SORRY, BUDDY.

THERE'S AN ELITIST
MENTALITY IN THE GROUP.

HUNTERS ARE BETTER.
HUNTERS ARE MORE RESPECTED.

NONE OF THEM
APPRECIATED WHAT I DID.

I WALKED A 50-POUND HEAD
ON MY BACK, IN HOT HEAT,

TO GET THAT HEAD OVER HERE, AND
THEN I HAD TO COOK IT FOR HOURS.

GARY LIKEY.

THIS MEAT LOOKS LIKE IT KEEPS
GETTING WORSE AND WORSE.

NOW WE'RE TALKING 36 HOURS
THAT IT'S BEEN PRETTY MUCH,

LIKE, OUT OF THE ANIMAL,
IN A POT, FESTERING.

CAN'T SHARE
WHAT NOBODY WANTS.

OH, MY GOSH.
IT'S MAKING ME SICK.

EVEN IF IT SMELLS LIKE
DOG IN HERE,

LET ME EAT
MY DOG.

YOU GOT FLIES IN YOUR BOMA?
IT MEANS YOU GOT FOOD AND HIDES.

QUIT YOUR CRYIN'.

YOU'RE LIVING ON THE GROUND
IN AFRICA. LIKE, COME ON.

THEY JUST DON'T KNOW BETTER.

YOU KNOW HOW INSANE
THAT WOULD BE TO EXPECT

EVERYBODY TO BE ON MY LEVEL?
THAT'S NOT EVEN FAIR TO SOCIETY.

I LOVE ALL THESE
FLIES.

IT MEANS I'M EATIN' MEAT.

YOU GOOD, GARY?

--I'M HOPING HE'LL BE FINE.

I WOULD HATE FOR HIM TO BE
PUT OUT OF THE CHALLENGE

BECAUSE OF HIS
HARDHEADEDNESS.

MY STOMACH'S
KILLING ME.

YOU GOOD, GARY?

OH, THAT SMELLS SO BAD.

- OUR BOMA SMELLS LIKE.
- LIKE ACTUAL.

LIKE, I'M PRETTY SURE
THAT'S RIGHT THERE.

HOW MANY TIMES
DID YOU GO OUT LAST NIGHT?

I PROBABLY WENT TO
THE BATHROOM SIX TIMES.

I BASICALLY HAD THE ,
AS THEY CALL IT.

IT COULD HAVE TO DO
WITH THE FACT

THAT I'M JUST EATING ONLY A TON
OF MEAT RIGHT NOW IN MY SYSTEM.

I'M JUST BEING SMART AND LOADING
UP ON AS MUCH FOOD AS I CAN.

LET'S SCOOP OUT
SOME DELICIOUS MORSELS.

YEP.

I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
IT'S A SURVIVAL SKILL.

ALL I CAN SMELL IS POOP.

I CAN'T TELL IF IT'S POOP
OR IF IT'S MEAT.

I'M LIKE 90% SURE I SAW DIARRHEA
DRIBBLES RIGHT NEXT TO YOU.

RIGHT WHERE
I'M SITTING?

GARY! YOU'RE SERIOUSLY
GONNA EAT MORE OF THIS?

THAT'S RIGHT.

GARY, YOU WERE, LIKE,
POOPING ALL NIGHT.

YEAH. WHO'S TO SAY IF IT'S
ALL BECAUSE OF MEAT?

IF HE EATS THE REST
OF THAT MEAT, HE IS CRAZY.

HE'S LOSING MORE NUTRIENTS
AND MORE DEHYDRATION

CRAPPING THAT STUFF OUT THAN HE
IS PUTTING IT INTO HIS BODY.

MMM. MMM-MMM.

GARY'S BEEN EATING ON
THAT LEOPARD-KILL NYALA

FOR THE LAST THREE DAYS.

HE WAS IN THE SHELTER
LAST NIGHT,

HUNKERED IN A CORNER,
GOING TO THE BATHROOM.

I THINK HE WANTS TO FEEL LIKE
HE'S THIS BADASS SURVIVALIST,

BUT ALL I'VE SEEN HIM DO NOW
IS GO TO THE BATHROOM.

DELICIOSO.

I'M CHOPPING BAMBOO,
TRYING TO MAKE THAT ROOF

AS WATERTIGHT AS POSSIBLE

SO WE CAN AT LEAST BE
SOMEWHAT COMFORTABLE.

HEY, GARY, YOU WANT TO
HELP ME CLEAN

AND DRAG OVER
THESE BAMBOO POLES?

I'LL HELP IN THE AFTERNOON,
BECAUSE I DON'T...

BECAUSE WE HAVE SOME BAMBOO
TO WORK WITH RIGHT HERE,

RIGHT NOW, RIGHT?

- NOT ENOUGH TO BUILD A SHELTER.
-I KNOW.

BUT, I MEAN, IT COULD
START BEING WORK.

VERY SELFISH.

I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

- WHAT AM I DOING?
-GOING TO GET THE MARROW.

- IS THAT RIGHT?
-YEP.

YOU DO YOU, GARY.

I'M ON MY OWN, TO VENTURE OUT
INTO THE AFRICAN WILDNESS...

TO GO GET THIS BONE MARROW.

THEY'RE CALLING ME GROSS.

AND THEY'RE CRITICIZING.
AND THEY'RE JUDGING.

AND THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT
THAT POT OF SMELLY MEAT,

WHEN THEY SHOULD LOOK AT THAT
POT OF MEAT AND THEY SHOULD GO,

"GOD, WHAT A STRENGTH. GOD,
WHAT A SURVIVAL TECHNIQUE."

WHOA.
LOOK AT THAT LEOPARD PRINT.

THAT'S A HUGE LEOPARD.
LOOKS LIKE I'M WALKING

THE LEOPARD'S FAVORITE
STOMPING GROUNDS...

AS I'M STEALING HIS FOOD.

WE'RE WORKING IN PRIME
PEAK-SUN HOURS.

WE REALLY NEED
TO GET THIS DONE.

THIS IS PUNISHING WORK.

I'M NOT SURE WHAT
GARY'S AGENDA IS,

BUT RUBBING IT IN ALL
OF OUR FACES EVERY DAY

THAT EATING SOME MEAT
THAT'S DAYS OLD,

JUST TO MAKE A POINT,
IS KIND OF FRUSTRATING.

PERSONALLY, I THINK HE MIGHT
BE A LITTLE JEALOUS,

BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE WAS GONNA
BE THE SAVIOR OF THE TEAM.

HOPEFULLY HE'S DONE
WITH HIS LITTLE AGENDA

AND WE CAN MOVE ON IN TRYING
TO SURVIVE THE NEXT 12 DAYS.

I NOTICED THE CORPSE IS
COMPLETELY HOLLOWED OUT NOW.

THE MARROW WILL LAST LONGER
THAN EVERYTHING ELSE

BECAUSE IT'S TRAPPED
IN THE BONE.

OH, WOW. FIGS.

I JUST NOW TAPPED INTO ANOTHER
FOOD SOURCE FOR MY TEAM.

ALL BECAUSE I TOOK
A LITTLE ADVENTURE

TO GO GET THIS BONE MARROW.

A BIG PART OF ME LIKES
BEING UNDERAPPRECIATED.

IT'S MY LIFE. THIS IS MY LIFE.

I'M UNDERAPPRECIATED IN SOCIETY
ALL THE TIME.

I MUST DO IT.

GARY'S NOT JUST WORKING
ON THE HIDE AGAIN, IS HE?

GARY'S DOING HIS OWN THING.
HE'S GETTING BONE MARROW.

I MEAN, IT'D BE HELPFUL
IF HE WAS OVER HERE

WORKING ON THE SHELTER WITH US.
WE COULD REALLY USE THE HELP.

HE HASN'T DONE ANYTHING
TO HELP WITH THE BOMA.

NADA.

HIS, LIKE, PRIDE IS GETTING
SO MUCH IN THE WAY THAT HE...

HE ATE THE MEAT,
HIMSELF,

AND HAS NOW SURROUNDED US
WITH.

AND SURROUNDED US
WITH STINKY-ASS MEAT

THAT'S PROBABLY BROUGHT
EVERY LEOPARD AROUND

AND EVERY
SCAVENGER AROUND.

OVER AND OVER, HE DOES
WHATEVER HE WANTS,

THINKS HOW
HE CAN TWIST IT,

AND SAYS, "THAT WAS
FOR THE TEAM."

WE'RE ALL DOING OUR PART
AS A TEAM EFFORT,

AND WITHOUT THE TEAM,
NONE OF US ARE MAKING IT TO 40,

REGARDLESS OF WHAT
OUR SKILL SET IS.

AND HE'S NOT GONNA BE
BETTER THAN ANY OF US

IF HE'S NOT HELPING ANY OF US.
-CORRECT.

AT THIS POINT, HE'S
SORT OF A LOST CAUSE.

LIKE, IF HE WANTS TO DO
HIS THING, THAT'S FINE.

WE CAN DO WITHOUT.

IF HE'S NOT PART OF THE TEAM,
THAT'S HIS PROBLEM.

WE CAN DO WITHOUT.

27 DAYS INTO
THE 40-DAY CHALLENGE...

- HEY, NAKED PEOPLE!
-NO WAY!

...MATT'S ARRIVAL
HAS GIVEN A MUCH-NEEDED BOOST

TO THE REMAINING SURVIVALISTS.

- YOU GUYS HUNGRY AT ALL?
-YEAH.

HERE. DIG IN.

BUT WITH HIS DRIED-FOODS
RESERVES DEPLETED...

OH, THE MEAT'S GONE!

...GARY'S INSISTENCE
ON EATING

SCAVENGED NYALA MEAT
HAS INTENSIFIED...

IF YOU'RE NOT WILLING
TO EAT MAGGOTS,

YOU'RE NOT REALLY A SURVIVALIST.

...CAUSING NEW TENSION
WITHIN THE GROUP.

GARY'S NOT JUST WORKING
ON THE HIDE AGAIN, IS HE?

GARY'S DOING
HIS OWN THING.

AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER,
HE DOES WHATEVER HE WANTS.

DESPITE THOSE OBSTACLES,

THE ADDITION
OF SUCH AN EXPERIENCED HUNTER

RAISES THE TEAM'S XL RATING,
OR XLR,

FROM A 5.9 TO A 6.2.

RAISES THE TEAM'S XL RATING,
OR XLR,

GARY'S NOT JUST WORKING
ON THE HIDE AGAIN, IS HE?

HE'S GETTING BONE MARROW.

IT WOULD BE HELPFUL
IF HE WAS OVER HERE

WORKING ON THE SHELTER
WITH US.

AT THIS POINT, IF
HE'S NOT PART OF THE TEAM,

WE CAN DO WITHOUT.

70 FEET UP IN A TREE

IS A PLACE WHERE
YOU DON'T MAKE MISTAKES.

YOU FALL FROM THIS HEIGHT,
YOU DIE.

GOING OUT ON A LIMB
FOR THESE GUYS.

LITERALLY.

WHOA!

I'M A SURVIVALIST
ALL THE WAY AROUND.

MY STYLE IS UNDENIABLY
WHAT FEEDS PEOPLE.

FIGS ARE DELICIOUS.

IT'LL BE NICE TO PROVIDE
THE TEAM WITH NUTRIENTS

AND VITAMINS FROM SWEET FIGS.

THAT COULD HAVE BEEN ME.

GARY. WHAT'S UP, MAN?

WHO WANTS SOME
BIG FIGS?

- I'D LOVE SOME FIGS.
-BIG ONES.

- RIPE ONES.
-WOW.

- THANKS, GARY. APPRECIATE IT.
-HAVE A FEW.

- FIGS ARE A BIG DEAL, GARY.
-I KNOW.

WE KNOW THIS.

GOOD SCORE, BROTHER.

I JUST WANT YOU GUYS TO KNOW
I'M NOT AROUND.

I'M HERE WITH YOU.
I'M IN THE GAME.

THAT'S A REAL GOOD THING
YOU JUST DID.

- HEY, GAR.
-WHAT'S UP, DUDE?

YOU'VE BEEN
ON AN ADVENTURE?

- WHO WANTS SOME FIGS?
-OH, YEAH!

SEE WHAT
YOU THINK OF THOSE?

HEY. THANKS, BUDDY.

YOU'RE
AWESOME, DUDE.

I HAD TO CLIMB 70 FEET UP
FOR THOSE.

- 70 FEET?!
-YES.

- OH, MY GOSH.
-HUH.

SO I WAS OUT
DOING SOMETHING.

I'M NOT
AROUND, ALL RIGHT?

I WANTED TO ASK YOU
GUYS A FAVOR, TOO,

THAT I WANT TO BRING UP.

YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT
MY PUTRID FOOD AND THAT DISH.

BUT I WANT TO POINT
SOMETHING OUT TO YOU.

AND IT'S NOTHING
TO TAKE FROM YOU, MATT,

BECAUSE WHAT YOU DID
WAS BEAUTIFUL.

BUT YOU NOTICED I DIDN'T EAT
ONE OF THAT PIECE OF BEEF JERKY.

I DID.
I NOTICED THAT.

SO EVERY BITE
I TOOK OF THAT FOOD,

I WAS FEEDING YOU
MY SHARE OF BEEF JERKY.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU GUYS
WERE AWARE OF THAT.

AND SO TO HAVE TO HEAR REMARKS
ABOUT WHAT I'M DOING,

AS I'M MUSCLING THROUGH THAT,
WAS OFFENDING ME.

BECAUSE I WAS DOING
SOMETHING KIND TO YOU.

BUT YOU DIDN'T
HAVE TO EAT THAT.

THE SURVIVAL STRATEGY
IS TO NOT EAT THAT MEAT.

WELL, THAT'S A STRATEGY,
BUT, BOTTOM LINE,

YOU CAN END UP IN A SITUATION,
A SURVIVAL SITUATION,

WHERE YOU MIGHT HAVE
TO EAT MAGGOTS ONE DAY.

YOU MIGHT, AND THE ONLY REASON
WE TALK NEGATIVELY ABOUT IT

IS 'CAUSE NONE OF US
ARE AT THAT STATE.

YOU COULD'VE SPENT THAT MUCH
TIME GETTING FRESH MEAT.

HAVEN'T YOU GUYS BEEN SPENDING
TIME TRYING TO GET FRESH MEAT?

- YEAH.
-I COULD VERY EASILY SAY

EVERY TIME YOU GUYS GO HUNTING,
YOU'RE NOT DOING FOR ME,

'CAUSE YOU HAVEN'T
COME BACK WITH CRAP.

OH, GARY, GARY, GARY.

HE DOES NOT.

I DON'T SAY THAT TO YOU,
AND YOU JUST SAID THAT TO ME.

INSTEAD I SAY,
"MAN, GOOD LUCK."

I'M TALKING TIME MANAGEMENT.

WHAT, SO YOU DECIDE WHAT
MY TIME MANAGEMENT IS?

I'M SAYING YOU HAVEN'T
BEEN AROUND.

THAT'S NOT TRUE. YOU'RE SAYING
I'M NOT HERE WITH THE TEAM

WHEN I ACTUALLY AM, BUT YOU JUST
DON'T RECOGNIZE THAT I AM.

SO ALL OF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH ME NOT BEING HERE?

I PERSONALLY -- I'M NOT
SPEAKING FOR ANYBODY ELSE.

BUT I THINK WE ALL NEED
TO COME TOGETHER

AS A TEAM,
EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US.

'CAUSE THE MORE HANDS
TO GET THIS THING BUILT...

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I WENT
OUT AND GOT FOOD FOR
EVERYBODY INSTEAD.

YOU'RE WELCOME.
YOU GUYS ARE WELCOME.

BUT I WASN'T HERE
FOR THE TEAM, WAS I?

NO, YOU HAVEN'T BEEN. AND
I'LL SAY IT EVERY TIME.

EITHER YOU'RE HERE
OR YOU'RE NOT HERE.

AND I'M JUST LETTING YOU
KNOW THAT.

DUDE, THAT'S SO.

BECAUSE I COULD SAY WHEN YOU'RE
OUT HUNTING YOU'RE NOT HERE.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT. I WAS OUT
GETTING FOOD FOR EVERYBODY.

- TODAY.
-NO, NOT JUST TODAY.

DID YOU PICK FIGS
YESTERDAY? WHAT DID YOU
DO THE DAY BEFORE THAT?

OH, WOW. NOW YOU WANT ME
TO ANSWER TO YOU,

AND I'M NOT MAKING
YOU ANSWER TO ME.

OKAY. WELL, HEY.

I'VE BEEN BUSTING ASS FOR
A MONTH BEFORE YOU CAME ALONG.

IF YOU FEEL LIKE YOU
ARE HELPING, THAT'S FINE.

DO WHATEVER THE
YOU WANT.

YOU DO YOUR THING.
YOU DO YOUR THING.

- WE'LL DO OUR THING.
-OH, IS THAT...

- YOU'RE SO FULL OF.
- SHUT THE UP.

YOU DON'T DECIDE
WHETHER I'M HERE OR NOT.

WHAT A BUNCH OF
UNGRATEFUL.

'CAUSE THAT'S EXACTLY
WHAT THE YOU ARE.

NEXT TIME...

WE HAVE FOOD.

IT ISN'T MUCH,
BUT IT'S SOMETHING.

IF THE HUNTERS GO
ALL 40 DAYS WITH ZERO KILLS,

IT WILL FEEL VERY MUCH LIKE

WE CARRIED THEM
THROUGH THE CHALLENGE.

OBVIOUSLY YOU'RE NOT GONNA
BRING SOMETHING BACK

EVERY SINGLE TIME, BUT AT LEAST
WE'RE OUT THERE TRYING.

OH, WELL, YEAH,
I'M NOT HUNTING,

BUT I WASN'T JUST SITTING
LOOKING AT ANIMALS.

THIS IS HORSE.

WE MAY HAVE
A CAMP DIVISION.

- I AM OVER THIS.
-AAH!

PISSES ME OFF. I DON'T
GIVE A . I'M DONE.

Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
