DON'T LET GO OF THE TIN!

...ESTABLISHING THEIR FOOTHOLD IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST.

BUT A NEW THREAT ADVANCES ON THE HORIZON.

ALL THE STUFF OUT HERE IS JUST SO DRY.

IF A FIRE EVEN LOOKS AT THIS STUFF, IT'S GONNA CATCH.

IT SOUNDED LIKE A TORNADO.

SUMMER HAS ARRIVED IN NORTHERN WASHINGTON,

USHERING IN A NEW THREAT FOR THE BROWN SIBLINGS.

WELL, THAT...

- OH... - SPEAKING OF FIRE HAZARDS.

WAS THAT -- PROBABLY LIGHTNING, RIGHT?

I GUESS.

AROUND HERE, THE FIRE SEASON IS REALLY SERIOUS.

AND IT'S REALLY DANGEROUS. LIKE, A LOT OF PEOPLE CAN LOSE THEIR LIVELIHOODS THAT WAY.

THAT JUST RIGHT THERE GOES TO SHOW YOU.

AND WE JUST WANT TO BE AS PREPARED AS WE CAN BE,

AND TODAY THAT MEANS FINDING GOOD SPOTS

TO WATCH OUT FOR THE FIRE SO THAT IF SOMETHING DOES HAPPEN,

WE'RE NOT GONNA BE IN THE FIRE

BEFORE WE NOTICE SOMETHING'S BURNING.

RISING TEMPERATURES AND EXTREMELY DRY CONDITIONS

ARE CAUSING WILDFIRE BREAKOUTS,

WHICH CAN DECIMATE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF ACRES

FROM A SINGLE SPARK.

AND WITH AN ENCROACHING FIRE ACROSS THE CANADIAN BORDER,

THE BROWNS' MOUNTAIN PROPERTY IS IN THE PATH OF DANGER.

FIRE IS NORMALLY SOMETHING THAT WE TRY AND GET,

YOU KNOW, AND NOW IT'S A THREAT.

IF A FIRE DOES CATCH ON THE MOUNTAINS,

LIKE, WE HAVE A LOT OF LAND.

IT COULD EVEN BE A LITTLE BIT BEFORE WE EVEN KNOW IT HAPPENS.

AS THE RISK OF FIRE CONTINUES TO INTENSIFY,

THE COUNTY WILL ENACT AN EMERGENCY BURN BAN,

RESTRICTING THE USE OF ALL MOTORIZED EQUIPMENT,

GENERATORS, AND POWER TOOLS.

WE'VE HAD FLOODS, WE'VE HAD ROAD ISSUES,

WE'VE HAD ALL THIS STUFF HIT US,

AND NOW ANOTHER SUCKER PUNCH TO THE BREAD BASKET --

THE FIRE BAN.

WE'RE ALL DREADING IT. WE KNOW IT'S RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.

SO WE'RE GONNA JUST TRY TO GET ALL THE WORK DONE WE CAN

BEFORE THAT HAPPENS AND WE LOSE ALL OF OUR POWER TOOLS.

THIS SHOULD DEFINITELY BE ONE OF THE LOOKOUT POINTS.

LET'S MARK IT ON THE MAP.

DETERMINED TO COMPLETE THE BARN

BEFORE A MANDATED POWER-TOOL BAN...

WHERE ARE YOU GONNA STAND?

ON TOP OF THESE AND LOCK MY LEGS INTO HERE.

...THE KIDS BEGIN THE PROCESS OF LEVELING THE UPPER PILINGS,

THE LAST STEP NEEDED BEFORE THEY CAN RAISE THEIR ROOF.

BEFORE WE CAN FRAME UP THE ROOF WITH THE POSTS,

WE HAVE TO LEVEL LIKE WE DID THE BOTTOM.

IT'S DEFINITELY A LITTLE BIT MORE DANGEROUS

'CAUSE WE'RE, LIKE, TWO STORIES UP NOW.

SAW.

BE VERY CAREFUL!

THIS POINT OF BUILDING IS ALWAYS CHALLENGING

BECAUSE YOU'RE THAT FAR OFF THE GROUND,

YOU HAVE TO HANG OFF OF A LADDER

OR JUST BE IN WEIRD, PRECARIOUS POSITIONS

WHILE ALSO WIELDING USUALLY A CHAINSAW,

BUT IN THIS INSTANCE, WE NEED TO MAKE USE OF THE FACT

THAT WE CAN STILL USE POWER TOOLS WHILE WE CAN.

THIS BAN COULD GO INTO EFFECT ANY MOMENT,

AND SO EVERY DAY THAT WE GET TO CONTINUE

WORKING WITH MODERN TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT,

WE NEED TO PUT IN AS MUCH EFFORT AND WORK AS POSSIBLE.

THAT WAY, WHEN IT GETS TO 102 DEGREES

AND ALL US ALASKAN KIDS CAN'T WORK OUT HERE ANYMORE...

THERE WE GO!

...I'M GONNA BE JUST WALKING AROUND LIKE AN ASTRONAUT.

SO, TO MAKE THE SUIT, I'M GONNA BE USING A LARGE TARP.

ONE FOR-SURE THING ABOUT THE BROWN FAMILY,

THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS WE'VE CONQUERED --

SNOW, COLD, FREEZING TEMPERATURES.

THE HEAT'S NOT GONNA STOP US, EITHER.

WE HAVE A SQUARE RIGHT HERE, GABE!

IT'S HIP TO BE A SQUARE.

ONCE WE FINISH THIS, WE CAN BASICALLY JUST START

IT'S GETTING KIND OF DARK ABOVE US, GUYS.

JUST TO BE SAFE, WE SHOULD TAKE A BREAK AND SEE IF IT BLOWS OVER.

WE'RE THINKING AT FIRST WHEN WE HEAR IT'S GONNA RAIN --

WE'RE LIKE, "OH, YAY! YOU KNOW, WE GET SOME RAIN.

WE GET RELIEF FROM ALL THIS STUFF."

BUT, NO, YOU KNOW, THE RAIN IS GONNA BRING LIGHTNING,

AND LIGHTNING IS THE NUMBER-ONE CAUSER OF FIRE HERE.

SO, IF SOMETHING HAPPENS,

IT'S GONNA GO UP AND IT'S GONNA GO UP FAST.

LET'S AT LEAST STARTING MEASURING A LITTLE BIT BEFORE IT GETS TOO BAD.

THIS DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT'S GONNA JUST STOP ALL OF SUDDEN.

LOOK AROUND. WE'RE SURROUNDED BY DARK CLOUDS.

THERE'S JUST SO MANY DIFFERENT THINGS DOWN HERE

THAT WE'RE NOT ACCUSTOMED TO OR USED TO.

I'VE SEEN LIGHTNING ALL OF TWICE, I THINK,

IN MY ENTIRE 30-SOMETHING YEARS OF LIVING IN ALASKA,

SO THAT'S NOT A GREAT CONCERN UP THERE,

BUT HERE, IT IS.

AT HOME, IT'S WORK IN THE RAIN OR DON'T WORK, SO I MEAN --

AT HOME, IT'S A RAINFOREST WITH NO LIGHTNING,

AND WE STILL WOULDN'T WORK ON A ROOF IN THE RAIN.

- WELL, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT. - YEAH, WE WOULD.

OKAY. THAT'S A LITTLE ABOVE US.

- YEP. WE'RE QUITTING. - THAT'S A LITTLE ABOVE US.

LIGHTNING STRIKES CAN AND WILL START FIRES,

THAT WAY, IF THERE IS SOME SORT OF FIRE,

WE CAN BE RIGHT ON IT IN FAST RESPONSE.

CREATING A SMALL, CONTROLLED FLAME

TO FINISH OFF THEIR PARENTS' GIFT.

WILL THAT BE TOO MUCH SUGAR WATER?

THERE ARE MULTIPLE DIFFERENT WAYS THAT YOU CAN DO IT.

MY FAVORITE WAY IS YOU TAKE WATER AND SUGAR AND YOU BOIL IT,

AND YOU MAKE, LIKE, A THICK CANDY SYRUP OUT OF IT,

AND THEN YOU DIP THE ROSE PETALS.

THEN THEY HARDEN AND DRY, AND YOU EAT THEM LIKE THAT.

YOU KNOW, I FEEL LIKE SUGAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN, LIKE,

IS THAT THERE'S A LOT OF STUFF LYING AROUND.

I SHOULD BE ABLE TO USE A PAIR OF MATT'S OLD JUMPER CABLES

IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE THAT I HAVE EVERYTHING WIRED RIGHT.

AND...

IT WORKS.

NOW THAT THE LIGHTS ARE ATTACHED,

THE MORE IMPORTANT STEP WILL BE ACTUALLY TESTING THE MOTOR

AND MAKING SURE THAT THE PUMP WORKS.

WELL, IT'S TIME TO SEE IF THIS THING'S GONNA WORK.

MOMENT OF TRUTH. HERE WE GO.

IT NEEDS A COUPLE OF ADJUSTMENTS, BUT IT SHOULD WORK!

I CAN MOST LIKELY ADD ON A TIP ADJUSTMENT

TO MAKE IT GO TO WHERE IT SPRAYS MORE,

BUT IT DEFINITELY SHOULD BE ENOUGH

IN ORDER TO PUT OUT A FIRE IF ONE OCCURS.

IT'S REALLY A SHAME THAT MATT WASN'T ABLE TO HELP ME FINISH.

THAT WOULD'VE BEEN COOL.

AS TEMPERATURES SUSTAIN TRIPLE DIGITS

FOR THE THIRD STRAIGHT DAY, THE FIRE RISK HAS ESCALATED,

PROMPTING LOCAL OFFICIALS

TO ENGAGE IN AN EMERGENCY BURN BAN ACROSS THE REGION,

PUTTING AN IMMEDIATE HALT

TO ANY AND ALL USE OF GENERATORS,

MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT, AND POWER TOOLS ON THE BROWNS' LAND.

AND AS FATHER BILLY HEADS TO TOWN

TO SCORE SOME MORE HAND TOOLS,

THE SIBLINGS ARE LEFT TO WORK WITH WHAT THEY HAVE.

- I'M DYING. - I'M DYING, YEAH.

WE KNOW, THE POWER-TOOL BAN IS IN EFFECT RIGHT NOW.

IT DID HIT US.

EVERYTHING WE THOUGHT BAD WAS GONNA HAPPEN DID HAPPEN.

YOU SHOULD USE A DIFFERENT ONE THAN I DUNKED IN.

EW! ARE YOU BOBBING FOR APPLES?

USE A DIFFERENT ONE I DUNKED IN.

I USED THE MOST FULL.

SO DID I.

THE GUYS WORKED HARD. THE ROOF IS DONE.

THAT WAS THE BIGGEST WORRY THAT I HAD,

SO NOW THEY'RE HANDSAWING AND THEY'RE BANGING STUFF UP

WITH NAILS TO TRY TO CLOSE UP THE INSIDE AND GET ALL THAT DONE.

THEIR FINAL PUSH IS WHAT THEY'RE DOING RIGHT NOW.

YOU KNOW, YOU COULD ACTUALLY TURN THIS INTO A HOTEL FOR ANIMALS.

-AFTER THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE STALLS ON THE BARN,

NOW IT'S A MATTER OF MAKING THE DOORS.

YOU KNOW, THE ANIMALS HAVE TO HAVE A WAY TO GET IN AND OUT.

WE HAVE A WAY TO GET IN AND OUT, FEEDING THEM AND WATERING THEM.

OKAY, GUYS, SINCE THIS IS ACTUALLY THE LAST STALL,

WHO GETS TO PUT THE LAST SCREW IN?

WHOEVER HAS THE STINKIEST FEET.

- OH, MY GOSH. - ARE WE READY?

OKAY, NOW, WE'LL ALL THREE BE THE JUDGE.

WE'VE HAD A LOT OF COMPETITIONS IN MY LIFE,

BUT THIS ONE -- THIS ONE TAKES THE CAKE.

WE HAVE NEVER HAD A STINKY-FEET COMPETITION.

SMELL IT!

I KIND OF FEEL IT IN THE EYES.

I'VE SMELLED WORSE. IT'S NOT BAD.

A LITTLE LIKE ROTTEN MEAT.

I'M PRETTY CONFIDENT, YOU KNOW, IN MY STINKY-FEETEDNESS.

I DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOU THINK, LIKE, I HAVE SOMETHING

REALLY NASTY GOING ON IN MY BOOTS, BUT 9 TIMES OUT OF 10,

THERE'S SOMETHING REALLY NASTY GOING ON IN MY BOOTS.

MY TURN!

GET IN THERE.

OH, MY GOSH!

AFTER RAIN!

- SHE'S TOUCHING IT! - THEY DON'T ACTUALLY SMELL.

I KNOW, RIGHT? THEY SMELL GOOD.

I WAS PRETTY SURE I HAD THIS ONE IN THE BAG,

SO. THEN, RAIN TAKES OFF HER BOOT.

- OHH. - I THINK SHE WINS.

OHH!

- YEAH, SHE WINS. - YEAH, YOU WIN.

YOU DON'T REALLY THINK THAT MY FEET SMELL?

MY HAND SMELLS LIKE IT NOW.

OH.

MY SHOULDER STILL SMELLS FROM WHERE YOU WERE STANDING.

THAT'S DISGUSTING.

I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHY I WON.

I DON'T KNOW WHY I HAVE THE SMELLIEST FEET OF BIRD AND GABE.

I DON'T GET IT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY.

I DON'T LIKE CLEANING MY FLOOR.

OR YOUR FEET.

SOMEHOW, GABE'S SMELLED LIKE BABY POWDER,

AND BIRD'S SMELLED LIKE SCENTED CANDLES,

AND MINE SMELLED LIKE OLD, DUSTY SHOE, SO...

CAN SMELL YOU THROUGH YOUR SHOES.

OKAY, RAIN, PUT THAT LAST SCREW IN. YOU WIN.

YOU KNOW, YOU FALL DOWN, YOU GET UP, AND HE'S REALLY TRYING.

I DIDN'T WANT TO SAY ANYTHING, BUT I WAS A LITTLE BIT WORRIED.

I WAS WORRIED ABOUT HIM. I SAW THAT LOOK IN HIS EYE, YOU KNOW?

- WE ALL DID. - THAT WANDERING LOOK.

WE WERE ALL THINKING IT.

HE AND I ARE REALLY CLOSE,

SO TO HEAR THAT MATT'S LEAVING MOUNTAIN,

IT REALLY HITS ME HARD, YOU KNOW?

HOW LONG'S HE GONNA BE GONE?

I ASKED HIM. HE SAID THAT THIS IS NO QUICK FIX.

HE'S TRIED QUICK FIXES. THEY DON'T WORK.

HE MIGHT NOT BE BACK FOR A WHILE.

- YIKES. - YOU KNOW?

IT'S GOOD BECAUSE IT'S FOR MATT. MATT NEEDS THIS HELP.

IF MATT WAS STAYING HERE AND STILL DOING

WHAT HE WAS NORMALLY DOING AND BUILDING ON THE BARN

I'M GONNA MISS HIM.

I MISS HIM JUST BEING AROUND THE CAMPFIRE, JUST LAUGHING AND --

YEAH, I AM, TOO, BUT I DON'T MEAN TO GET FLUFFY LIKE MOM,

THAT, BEFORE IT WAS TOO LATE, THAT HE MADE THIS DECISION.

IT'S A GOOD THING.

YOU KNOW, THAT HE'S TRYING TO DO THIS.

YOU KNOW, I'LL NEVER LOSE FAITH IN MATT.

DETERMINED TO PRESS ON

FOLLOWING THE DEPARTURE OF THEIR ELDEST BROTHER,

THE BROWN SIBLINGS CONTINUE PREPARATIONS TO SECURE LIVESTOCK

DO YOU WANT TO ATTACK IT HERE?

- YEAH. - TO START?

WE LITERALLY ARE THAT CLOSE TO BRINGING THE ANIMALS IN

AND GETTING STARTED ON THIS, AND IT'S BEEN A --

OH, IT'S GONNA BE A CELEBRATION ON THAT ONE.

NOT FOR VERY LONG BECAUSE THE NEXT DAY,

WE START SOMETHING ELSE, BUT FIRST PROJECT WILL BE DONE.

WHAT IF WE MAKE, LIKE, A LITTLE DOOR OUT OF THE CHICKEN WIRE

HERE FOR IF WE HAVE, LIKE, A COW?

WELL, YOU COULDN'T GET A COW IN HERE.

WHAT ARE WE PLANNING ON GETTING HERE?

SMALL STUFF.

AND AS THE DAY HAS COME FOR BILLY AND AMI

TO RETRIEVE THEIR FARM ANIMALS,

THE KIDS ARE BUILDING A SAFE METHOD OF TRANSPORT.

THE QUICKER WE GET THIS DONE, THE QUICKER WE GET ANIMALS.

IN THIS TRAILER THAT WE'RE TRYING TO FIX UP,

WE'RE JUST TRYING TO MAKE IT SECURE

SO WHATEVER ANIMAL DOES GO IN IT, IT HOLDS IT.

DO I PUT NAILS ON HERE?

YEAH, OR ELSE THEY'RE JUST GONNA CRAWL OUT.

DAD MADE A DEAL FOR LIVESTOCK,

AND AS IT COMES TO HOW MANY AND WHAT ALL HE'S GOT, I DON'T KNOW.

- WHAT'S ON ME? - IT'S OUR FIRST CATTLE.

I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEIR FACES.

WITH BILLY AND AMI EN ROUTE,

THE SIBLINGS ARE BACK ON THEIR BARN BUILD,

RACING TO READY THEIR HOMESTEAD FOR THE ARRIVAL

OF THEIR FARM ANIMALS.

AS MUCH AS I'VE SAID THIS THROUGHOUT YOUR LIVES,

RESPECT THE DANGER.

DON'T LOSE ANY FINGERS, BEAR, BECAUSE THOSE WHEELS

COULD ACTUALLY GRAB YOUR FINGER, DRAG IT IN,

AND THEN WE HAVE TO BACK THE DOOR OFF TO EVEN GET YOUR FINGERS OUT.

THE WHEELS ON THE BUS GO 'ROUND AND 'ROUND, 'ROUND AND 'ROUND!

TODAY IS ACTUALLY A PRETTY AWESOME DAY.

WE ARE ACTUALLY PUTTING THE BARN DOORS ON,

AND THEN WE CAN JUST START FILING ANIMALS IN THERE,

BUT IT IS DANGEROUS.
