Original subtitles

[Andrew] Being marooned on an island is a stressful situation.

It's gotten so bad out here.

We have no tools. We have nothing.

[Heather grunts]

If you don't adapt, then you won't survive out here.

[Heather] I'm frustrated and I'm fed up.

[crying] I've got bug bites all over my face and my legs, my back side.

I'm bleeding everywhere.

This is hell.

[narrator] In the middle of the South Pacific Ocean...

[Heather] What was that? [screams]

[narrator] ...for the first time ever,

a new generation of nine elite survivalists...

I am the jungle queen.

[narrator] ...takes on an unprecedented challenge.

[Andrew] This is rough.

[narrator] Marooned on a deserted island...

[Rachel] Oh, my God.

[narrator] ...for 21 days...

[gasping]

[narrator] ...with no maps...

[Andrew] We don't know where we're going or how far we're going.

Ew!

[narrator] ...and no tools.

[Kerra] This is definitely harder without a knife.

[Rachel] We have no survival tools, we have no weapons,

and we're just basically sitting ducks.

-[boar squealing] -[Justin] Hey!

-[Rachel] Hey. Hey. -[Justin] Hey. Hey!

[grunts] Go on!

Holy mother of God! Look at this.

[narrator] To survive, they must scavenge the island for wreckage and debris...

to innovate new solutions.

It's dull. Just trying to get an edge on it is pretty tough,

but, uh, let's see what we can do.

[gasps]

We can use that to make fire.

-Yeah! -One man's trash is another man's treasure.

It feels like this is a whole new ball game.

-[Na'im] Whoa. -[Kerra] Whoa.

[Na'im] Whoo! Bad bitches.

[grunts]

And it is much harder.

[screams] Ah, there's a snake.

[Patrick] Guys. Hey, hey!

Whoa!

[grunts]

[narrator] Who will adapt?

[screams]

Guess what? Bare-handed killer is back.

[narrator] Who will crack?

It's honestly, like, so hard to comprehend.

You were repeatedly saying that, well, it's never gonna work.

That's a lie.

You just make up stories.

Jesus [bleep] Christ!

Chill the [bleep] out!

[narrator] And how will they escape to tell about it.

-[Andrew] It's a freaking boat, dude. -[Patrick] Yup.

-Hey! -[Andrew] Hey!

I just wanna get off of this [bleep] island and I wanna go home.

[narrator] Hundreds of miles from civilization...

the survivalists have been formed into three teams...

based on the complementary skills they've demonstrated in previous challenges.

Each team will begin on a different part of the island,

but, by day 21, will have to reach its northernmost point,

where international shipping lanes

present their only chance of signaling a boat for rescue.

Approaching from the south...

the team of Andrew, Heather, and Patrick will be the first to shore,

where aggressive saltwater crocodiles lie in wait.

Scary as hell. I'm kinda freaking out.

Being a castaway out here is probably gonna be the hardest challenge

that has ever been done.

I feel like gay Robinson Crusoe.

[all laughing]

But I have felt two of the three outcomes in this challenge.

I have more than one tick in my butt.

One is being forced out by a med tap.

[screams]

[grunting]

Two is choosing to leave by tapping out.

This challenge kinda broke me a little out here.

So I have to feel and discover and experience that third option

which is to finish this whole damn thing.

[Heather] We have no idea where we're going.

We have no map, we have no bearings.

So this is gonna be something that I haven't dealt with before.

At least in Africa, I had a map.

We are so [bleep].

I am about to be marooned on a desert island

with no tools to work with.

I know I'm walking into hell right now.

Ow! It's burning.

To me, survival's kind of like a Band-Aid on a shotgun wound.

At least the mud maybe can be a coating temporarily on our feet.

And, uh, I've never been one to bite my tongue.

Your answers are always so condescending and aggressive.

-It's not condescending and aggressive. -It's not necessary.

I think you're just a hypersensitive person, period.

-You cried when we saw elephants. -[scoffs]

It is what it takes and it takes what it is, and that's what I'm gonna be.

This is, like, a big shipping area,

so we might be able to find some good debris and stuff washing up on shore

-from either fishing boats or, like, containers. -[Andrew] Oh, yeah.

I hope that we strive for here is, like, Swiss Family Robinson.

Like, work together as a team to overcome.

What I don't want to happen is us to turn into Lord of the Flies,

-where we start to sacrifice each other. -Yeah.

Oh, look!

Oh, [bleep].

You see that?

-[Andrew] Oh, my gosh. -[Heather] Oh, my God!

[Andrew] You guys! Oh, we are gonna die.

I think this is a good time to panic.

-We are gonna die here. -[Heather laughs] Oh!

[narrator] Jutting up through 20 square miles of the Pacific Ocean,

the island's dense jungles crawl with venomous coral snakes and pit vipers.

Extreme heat and humidity spawn swarms of blood-sucking mosquitos,

chitras and sandflies.

And a deadly coastline of shallow coral reefs prevent boats

from landing on shore.

[Patrick] We just stopped.

[laughing] Oh, no.

[Patrick] But we're not even close to the freaking shore yet.

-It's go time. -It's go time!

[all shouting]

-Oh, God. -Whoo-hoo!

[Heather] I'd like to say this is my first time to get naked with two guys,

but it isn't.

I'm hoping to hell that I can win the [bleep] out of this.

You know what I mean, I did it for the first and second marriage,

so I'm sure I can make it on this island.

-You ready? -Yeah.

As I'll ever be.

-One, two, three. -[all grunt]

-Whoo! Whoo! -Lot warmer than I thought it would be.

[Heather] Ooh! This is warm to you?

[narrator] Eight miles to the north...

where deadly sea snakes patrol the volcanic rock shoreline...

the team of Bulent, Kerra and Na'im are next to enter the challenge.

-[Na'im] Yo! Land, oh! -[Kerra] Land!

[Bulent] Holy [bleep], dude.

[Kerra] It looks really scary.

I think this is as real as it's gonna get.

An island in the middle of the ocean with no tools, nothing.

You either make it or you're history.

Yeah, sounds like a great thing to sign up for.

And you, my friend, have a reputation for being a little salty.

-[Na'im laughs] -So maybe we should be scared of you. [laughs]

Bulent scowls more than he smiles,

but this is a guy that's cut out of iron.

This is his fourth challenge. You know, he's doneXL.

This is a legend.

[Bulent] That's a catfish!

With my bare hands!

[Na'im] And he's not a guy that's going to suffer fools very lightly.

Looks like we're gonna have to swim from here, guys.

-Let's go. -All right, let's do it.

I'm a pilot, and, mentally, I prepare for this every time I get into my airplane.

-Bag is empty. -Nothing in this [bleep].

Bag is empty. There's nothing in it.

[Kerra] Not even a map.

And the biggest challenge I have to deal with gonna be sharks,

sandflies and millennials.

-Start swimming? -Go on.

-Let's [bleep] do it. -Do it. Let's go.

But, you know, if I have to eat a people, I'll eat people,

but I will survive.

[Kerra] Oh, my God.

[narrator] Six miles to the west...

-Oh, gosh. This does not look super welcoming. -No.

[narrator] ...the final team of Candice, Rachel and Justin

approach the island's opposite coast,

where vicious bull sharks grow to over ten feet long,

and speckled caiman hunt in the murky mangrove swamps.

[Rachel] Can you imagine what's in these waters?

[Justin] You think a shark would actually get us, or would it want to?

Definitely. I think there's also crocodiles, which I'm extra nervous about.

I free-dive, so I spend a lot of time under the water.

I am a free-dive instructor.

I can swim to 50 meters on one breath.

So I'm the ocean girl, you know? This is my element.

But this is an intense situation.

The fact that I have no tools is very intimidating.

I can't believe we're showing up with nothing.

I have a feeling there is more dangerous things on this island than us.

Yeah, same.

I just wanna be a strong team, so...

[Justin] Well, it's pretty simple. Don't die. That's it.

[laughs] There you go.

[Candice] People underestimate me all the time.

Like, they look at me and they're, like, "Oh, she's not tough.

She's, like, a cute little valley girl."

But I am pretty tough. Like, I'm scrappy. I can survive.

That's how you do it, boys.

-Is this it? -I think this must be it.

I guess we're swimming.

[Candice] So many different thoughts running through my mind.

Like, if we do find water, how am I gonna boil it to make sure it's clean?

Am I gonna risk it?

You know, and, then, not having a knife or a machete,

like, how are we gonna cut bamboo down to make our shelter?

Oh, gosh.

So, it's scary.

[Rachel and Candice] One, two, three.

-Whoo! -[gasps] Ah!

We're nuts to do this a second time.

-[Andrew] You got it. -[Patrick] We're here.

[groans]

Whoo!

-No! [laughs] -Land!

Ah.

-[Heather] Oh, my God-- -[grunts]

-[Heather] Oh, [bleep]. -[insects trilling]

I mean, immediately, there's these little microscopic bugs

that wanna eat you, like vampires that are all over the place.

They're little. I didn't see them.

-[Andrew groaning] -[Heather] They're all over my leg.

Oh, [bleep]!

[Andrew] Now what do we do?

We already got some resources right here.

Looks like there's some bottles to the left of you.

[Heather] Oh, look. And a feather.

[Andrew] We can dry that feather out and use it as tinder.

This is a true survival situation.

Whatever I want or have to use to make it out here,

I've gotta find it and make it for whatever I need.

We need something for a cutting tool.

Remember, keep that in your mind, 'cause we gotta get some wood

so we can make a fire.

You've got shipwrecks,

people that have accidentally dumped stuff over the side of their boats.

They're gonna be washed up on these shores.

[Andrew] I wish I had a knife.

-[Heather] Yeah. -[Patrick] Yeah.

[Andrew] But this will come in handy.

We're gonna have to do something.

Holy [bleep], dude.

Doing okay, Kerra?

[Na'im] All right.

Current got strong closer to the rocks, huh?

[Bulent] Very strong.

[Na'im] We have just arrived on an island after a pretty hellacious swim,

and this is as close to hell as you can imagine.

-[Bulent] Oh, this is a bad place. -[Na'im] Yeah.

-[Bulent] No water. -[Na'im] No water.

[Bulent] No animals. Nowhere to lay.

I mean, there's nothing here, man.

Couldn't even pitch a shelter here if we wanted to.

[Kerra] I think there's something over there that's, like, kind of shiny.

[Bulent] Yeah.

-[Na'im] Yeah, I see it. -[Bulent] I see some debris.

[Na'im] Yeah.

One of the biggest skills that I bring into this challenge

is a very good knowledge of bushcraft.

I mean, I'm a Black cowboy.

Teamwork makes the dream work, baby.

I love building things and trying things.

-Perfect. Yeah. -Yeah, that's perfect. Yay!

[Na'im] And I have a relentless ability to problem-solve.

So I'm hoping this works. [grunts]

Oh, look at this.

I got something.

[grunts] Hell yeah. Check it out.

-Got something here. -[Bulent] Nice.

The remnants of an electric fan.

We got three blades here...

-[Kerra] Perfect. -[Na'im] ...that we can definitely use.

-[Kerra] Yeah. -[Na'im] You know, aluminum isn't a great metal,

but might be able to make it work.

-[Kerra] Good find. -[Na'im] Yeah, absolutely.

-[Kerra] Ready? Yeah. -[Na'im] Yeah. I mean, let's get out of here.

-This is not the spot. -Sounds good.

[Kerra] We should head up into the wood line

-and see if we can find some fresh water. -[Bulent] Good idea.

-[Candice] Can we touch the ground yet? -[Rachel] I don't know.

-[Candice] Can we? -[Rachel] I don't know.

[Justin] Oh, yeah.

-[Rachel] Ew. -[Candice] Ow.

We start walking out of the water and, immediately,

I'm noticing trash along the shore.

-Ice chest. -[Candice] Oh, nice.

My partners, they are both young, attractive females,

but they are also badass.

The can kind of sucks. There's holes on top.

-Oh, on top and bottom. -Yeah.

-Like, I was hoping we could at least use it. -I mean, it's like a seat.

-I mean, we could use it for a trap. -Yeah.

[Justin] And, truth be told, I don't know exactly how to survive,

but I'm a survivor.

I was in the Marine Corps, I was a scout sniper.

Now that I teach and train jiu-jitsu...

it is legitimately in my DNA to just be a warrior.

Yeah!

-Water bottles. -[Rachel] Those are--

-[Justin] We probably won't find those inland. -[Rachel] Yeah.

Instead of being scared, just gotta be resourceful out here.

[Candice] I think we need to just start, kind of, heading up this stream here.

-[Rachel] Okay. -And see if we can find fresh water that way.

-[Rachel] Okay. -[Candice] Let's get moving. It's hot.

We've been out in the ocean all day.

We're already hot. We're exhausted. We need water.

-[groans] It's getting deeper. -Oh, boy.

[Rachel] We need to make our way up the estuary

hoping that it's gonna lead us to some kind of creek or fresh water source.

But we honestly don't know because we have no map

and no idea what we're walking into.

[Justin] Holy [bleep].

This is crazy.

[Kerra] Guys, it's hot out here.

You're telling me, now.

And the sun is relentless.

[Na'im] We're gonna need to find water.

[Bulent] All right, princess. Lead the way.

-"Queen" to you, sir. -[Bulent] All right. Queen Bee.

[Kerra] Queen Bee.

I really wanna work with my partners this time.

[Kerra] There's some netting right here.

But respect is earned.

-[Na'im] It's like a whole net. -[grunts]

[Kerra] Come on, muscles.

-Look at that. -[Bulent] Water bottle.

I am a problem-solver, I think outside the box.

I was in the military for eight years.

I was a counter-intelligence special agent.

And I lasted 21 days in Africa.

-Oh, this is rough. Oh. -Suck it up, buttercup.

Because, like all things, these challenges are mind over matter.

[Bulent] I see some tracks.

Okay, yeah. Something... somebody's moving.

-[Na'im] Definitely pig tracks. -[Kerra and Bulent] Yeah.

-[Bulent] And there is three of 'em, at least. -[Na'im] Yeah.

Yeah. They're cutting into the wood line, which means they're probably...

-Probably know where the water is. -[Bulent] Yeah.

[Kerra] They probably know where some good food is.

[Bulent] We should follow 'em in, yes.

[narrator] Weighing up to 160 pounds,

with razor-sharp tusks,

territorial wild boars scour the island for food and fresh water.

[Bulent] Hey, let's just, uh...

keep tracking.

They're gonna lead us to something good.

[Andrew] Hot, hot, hot.

I'm gonna get out of the sun, y'all. This is, like,

hot, hot, hot time of day.

We don't wanna be burnt on day one.

-You guys? -[Patrick] Mm-hmm.

What would be your dream find?

How about a lighter?

-[Heather] Oh, my God! -[Patrick] Whoa!

-That's awesome! -[Heather] Yes!

Okay, does it have the down part on it?

[Andrew] I don't think it has fluid, but it has the striker.

[Heather] Oh, my God, that's perfect. So the flints there--

And inside, if we break it open,

inside is almost like a cotton we can pull apart that should be still be flammable.

If I don't have fire, the chitras will eat me alive.

If I don't have fire, I can't cook my food to eat it.

So I've got to make that happen, no matter what.

[Heather] Hey, guys, am I the only one that's wanting to get some water?

For sure.

We got some bottles. Like, why don't we go

and try to find some fresh water?

We need something, we're gonna need something quick.

Let's go. Let's go.

We need some shade or I am going to wither away and die.

It's terrifying not having a map.

I don't know what is 20 yards that way.

I don't know what's around that rock. I don't know where water is.

We are here blind.

I'm freaking out.

[Kerra] We're in the middle of freaking nowhere.

[Na'im] We gotta get somewhere soon.

Lack of water's gonna be a killer.

[Bulent] Whatever level of hydration I had is gone.

I'm definitely overheating.

God damn.

-[Rachel] Is it still super salty? -[Candice] Yeah.

-Damn it! -[Rachel groans]

We could hike for days trying to find water,

and so the fact that we don't have a map to guide us

could really be risky.

-It's still salty? -[Justin] Yeah.

[Candice] Makes me very nervous.

We do have this ticking clock, and without fresh water,

we cannot survive on this island.

Oh, this is so bad.

[Justin] Yeah. [screams]

[Rachel] Get me out of here.

[Patrick] This is way thicker and way worse than where we came from.

This is rough.

I'm still not seeing water.

[Andrew] I know. That's my only freak-out right now, is water.

[Patrick] Ooh, careful of these, guys.

See this?

These are those bad thorns that we could walk into, so let's be mindful of this.

-Ooh, that's evil. That is... [winces] -[Patrick] Yeah.

Long, spiky toothpicks from hell, pretty much, is what they are.

-And they sting. -Ah! Oh, God.

[Heather] Wow, welcome to the jungle.

-[Patrick] Yes. -[Andrew] We got fun and games.

[Heather] Yeah.

[Patrick] We've gone a long way, you know, in this jungle.

But, you know, I'm an athlete and I have a lot of stamina.

I backpack all over North America.

Embrace the brutality.

Last year, backpacked 7,000 miles.

So, when other people are gonna be tired

and won't be able to do things,

that's where I'll be able to come in clutch.

[Andrew] We got a creek up here.

-Yeah, yup. -Oh, I hear it.

[Andrew] Yup.

The water is moving slowly.

But at least the water is moving.

[Heather] I see some little bitty, bitty things in here,

so, obviously, where there's gonna be little, there's gonna be big.

We have running water, it's not stagnant.

There's gotta be a source it's coming from. Maybe there's a spring.

Ah! Maybe there's fish. There's a lot of stuff that comes with this.

Oh, you guys. There's, like, an old crashed car up here.

-[Heather] What? -[Patrick] Oh, my God.

[Andrew] Yeah. We should, like, raid it and see what we can use.

-[Andrew] We might even be able to use it as shelter. -[Heather] Ah! Oh, my God,

it is! Oh, my God!

What?

[Patrick] The metal looks kinda rusty and frail. This is crazy.

[Heather] There's a Jeep in the jungle.

An old military Jeep that's probably older than my grandmother.

[Patrick] I see some big pieces of glass over there.

[Andrew] Yeah, that's nuts.

Oh, I bet we could break that glass and turn it into shards.

[Patrick] Yeah.

[Andrew] I think this car is from some kinda military exercises,

which probably were done on this island, like, 80 years ago.

So this has been sitting here for eight decades, rotting and rusting.

I'm trying to now think of it as some kinda resource.

Right now, we have, you know, a water source.

We have a lot of items.

Why not do camp here?

We have some extra supplies now that are too heavy to move far,

but we could use them in different ways here.

We're under the canopy, so we're protected from the sun,

we have water right there,

mosquitos aren't so bad right now.

That is something that we need to start worrying about,

'cause I'm suddenly seeing the sun starting to settle.

I just wanna get a fire going. That's what I'm really concerned about.

[Patrick] Okay.

[Heather] I get cold really easily. Plus, there's bugs.

You know, they don't even have mosquitos over here.

They have low-altitude flying mini pterodactyls.

So we're gonna have to have a fire source.

[Andrew] Let me see if I can break that open and get a striker out of it.

[Kerra] I can feel myself burn already.

-[Na'im] We've been walking forever. -[Kerra panting]

[Bulent] If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

[Na'im] Water, oh! I see water.

[Kerra] All right, we're coming, we're coming.

[Na'im] There's the waterfall.

[Kerra] It's pretty.

This one's drinkable to me.

Now that we've found a water source,

I think we should continue on and, really, just find our shelter.

We don't have that much time anyway.

Yeah, we're gonna run out of daylight here.

-[Bulent] So, that'd be the smartest thing to do. -All right.

[Kerra] This water is fresh enough for us to drink,

which is amazing, considering we don't have a fire source yet to boil water.

So being able to find fresh water is a lifesaver for us.

-This trail is... -[Na'im] Coming to an end.

So, it can... We can either, maybe, go that way, or...

we could stay here.

-[Bulent] All right. -[Kerry] What do you think? I don't know.

[Na'im] If we clear the ground out,

-I think we can be okay. -[Bulent] Yeah.

-So are we all in agreeance? Is this the spot that we want? -[Bulent] Sure.

All right. Cool. Let's do it.

[Justin] Watch out. Slippery-ass rocks.

[grunts]

[Candice] Still salty?

[Justin] It's salty.

-[Candice] Is it? -[Rachel] Yeah.

-It's very salty. -[Candice] Still salty, yeah.

[Rachel] Very salty.

Oh, yeah.

It's getting late. We need to start looking for a place

-to build our shelter. -Yeah.

[Justin] Okay.

The sun's getting pretty low in the sky and we don't have a lot of time to figure out

where we're staying for the night.

We're gonna have to wait until morning to come up with a way to find

fresh water out here.

-I say we may need to get to a higher ground for, uh-- -Yeah, let's--

-Higher ground to make our shelter. -[Justin] Okay.

-[Rachel] Okay, let's book it. -[Justin] Okay, let's get the [bleep] out of here.

[Rachel] This is a three-hour tour gone wrong.

[Candice] I can feel the mosquitos eating me down here.

[Andrew] You know, right now, it's down to the basics.

Fire.

I'm gonna crack open the lighter, like, shatter it open,

and see what pieces we have to actually work with.

-[Heather] You got it? -[Andrew] I got it. Okay.

If those two pieces can spark, then we are in business.

This is a hope and a prayer.

[gasps]

It sparks. It sparks. It sparks. I just tested it.

-[Heather] Oh, does it? -[Andrew] Yeah.

-[Heather] Don't-- -[Patrick] Don't do it again!

Okay, okay, okay. [screams and laughs]

-Okay, okay. -[Heather] Oh, my God.

The weight of the world, just, no big deal, no pressure.

-That's what you did. -[Andrew tuts]

[bleep]

This is not easy. This piece is so tiny.

It's, like, hard enough to get a spark at all,

let alone a spark big enough to...

drop into our tinder bundle.

-On this island, nothing comes easy. -[Heather] Right?

[Rachel] All right. What do you guys think about up this way?

For night one, at least.

-[Rachel] Yeah? -All right.

-[Candice] Yeah. -We agree? Night one? Yup.

I'm gonna start clearing some of the stuff out then.

Okay.

[Justin] Start attempting to make an A-frame, maybe.

I'd definitely like to be elevated off the ground.

But, man, without the machete, dude...

[Candice] Yeah, machete would come in real handy right now.

It's scary. It's scary not having a shelter and anything to protect you.

And we have no survival tools, we have no weapons.

[baboons chattering]

My previous challenge in Zambia...

We have about 20 baboons.

...we had so much terrifying wildlife around us.

[lion roaring]

After a couple of nights of just shaking and having no sleep,

I went down this rabbit hole.

It's enough. I just wanna go home.

And so this is for redemption.

I know I can do it.

It's really difficult with no machete,

but we're just basically sitting ducks

waiting for something to come get us.

-[mosquitos buzzing] -[Rachel] I already knew coming into this,

that bugs were gonna be a struggle.

-[Candice] They're everywhere. -[Rachel] Yeah, I'm trying to ignore them.

[groans]

This sucks.

[mosquitos buzzing]

[Kerra] Ouch. Ow, ow!

Ooh, these [bleep] bugs.

[Na'im] We've got a swarm of chitras.

It's almost barely visible, but packs a wallop.

It's horrible.

Non-stop.

I don't understand how something so tiny can have such a big bite.

It's miserable.

-[Na'im] What in the Sam Hill have I signed up for? -[Kerra] No.

[Heather] I'm getting ate up, like, seriously.

No, they do feel like little needles.

Like, honestly, it feels like they're stabbing you.

They don't feel like a mosquito.

I am miserable.

The mosquitos, they've came out in droves.

I think they even called their cousins.

-[Andrew] Can you see my bug bite? -[Heather] I see you.

[Patrick] I see it. I mean, it's just bad.

[boar squealing]

[Rachel] What the hell?

-[Justin] Wait, wait. -[Rachel] What?

-It's over there. I heard it. -[Candice] Yeah.

[indistinct]

That thing was moving.

-It was, like, coming directly at us. -Down near the waterhole.

-[Rachel] We're being circled. -[Candice] Yes, that's what I think.

[Justin speaking]

-[rustling] -[Justin] Hey!

-Hey! [bleep] -[Rachel] Hey!

-[Justin] What is it? What is it? -[Candice] I don't know.

I'm so scared.

-[Rachel] We're being circled. -[Candice] Yes.

That's what I think.

-[rustling] -[boar squealing]

[Justin] Yo, what the [bleep]?

-[Candice] What is that? -[Rachel] Where'd it go?

-Wait, it's still out there. It's still there-- -He's circling us.

[Candice] I'm about to jump on your back.

-Sometimes, they have really mean, mean tusks. -[Candice] Yeah.

-Hey, hey! -Hey!

[boar squealing]

-[Justin] Hey! -[Rachel grunts]

Go on!

Dude, that was a [bleep].

[Rachel] That thing was stomping its freaking feet and it charged us.

I think it was--

-[Rachel] That was scary. -[Candice] Okay-- That was scary.

[Justin] I never deal with some [bleep] like that in my life.

[Rachel] I'm sweating.

-Like, that really did scare me. -Yeah.

[Candice speaking]

[Andrew] Guys, our bites are nasty!

[Heather] Yeah, for sure. I've got so many bug bites all over me.

[Patrick] I know you guys are eager to do fire.

[Heather] I definitely desperately want us to have fire.

Fire is very important, I think the number one thing you have to have in survival,

and that's the one thing that we don't have right now,

and it's driving me crazy.

So there's no gray areas as to what we're getting done today.

I think we could do, like, a bow drill.

I think that's a great idea.

[Andrew] Trying to figure out this fire situation.

Um, I'mma work on doing a bow drill, kind of a three-man bow drill.

I am definitely willing to try absolutely anything any time.

So we're gonna give it a go,

even though starting a primitive friction fire is not my forte.

I'm trying to de-thread this big, thick boating rope that we found.

If I can get some of these thinner strands off, I can use this as my bow string.

This is really hard without actual tools.

Does anyone have a good idea how to split a small log in half?

I got all the pieces that I need now for our bow drill fire set,

except I need kind of a flat plank.

And I just don't have the tools to split a log in half.

In a normal challenge...

splitting a log would take me about, probably, 4.2 seconds.

This is not a normal challenge.

I'm not panicked yet without it,

but will be soon.

No one likes to fail and, sometimes, making fire you fail.

It's tough.

[Na'im] How'd you sleep?

-[Kerra] I didn't sleep too well. -[Na'im] Yeah.

I tossed and turned and kept going from my back to my front to my side

-and just trying to get comfortable. -[yawning] Yeah.

This is morning of day two, and we slept like [bleep].

I'm exhausted, so our main focus today is making our fire.

-[Bulent] So we have to get a lot of wood. -[Na'im] Oh, yeah.

-[Bulent] Definitely on top of feet. -[Na'im chuckles]

-[Kerra] What the hell is that, dude? -[Na'im] What?

[Kerra] Right in front of you.

-[Na'im] I don't know. Looks like a downed plane. -[Bulent] That's a wing.

-[Kerra] Is that an airplane wing? -[Na'im and Bulent] Yeah.

[Na'im] That is crazy.

-[Kerra] You're a pilot, right? -[Bulent] Yeah.

[Na'im] Looks like one of the flaps came off, huh?

[Bulent] The flap, uh, probably was deposited somewhere else.

[Na'im] Where the hell is the rest of it?

[Bulent] Aluminum is a very soft metal.

-That's like Coke can. -[Kerra and Na'im] Yeah.

[Bulent] I don't see it being very useful.

Makes sense, right? Like, an island over the Pacific,

the weather can get really choppy all of a sudden.

Looks like there's a plane that's gone down.

We found the wing and it means that there could be

other parts of that plane around

with additional resources that we can scavenge.

-[Kerra] Hey, guys. -[Bulent] Yes.

[Kerra] I think I see the other wing of that plane.

-[Bulent] Shut up. -[Kerra] Yeah, up there.

The main landing gear is sticking out on the right side.

-[Kerra] Oh, okay. -[Bulent] Yeah.

-That is definitely the fuselage. -[Kerra] Cool.

[Bulent] We are hiking through the jungle, and we see this airplane.

It is in a very steep part of the hill.

It is risky. It is, uh...

That is a big fall. That will be the end of day if something goes wrong.

But it's survival. Ain't nobody asking you if you're happy or not.

Holy mother of God! Look at this [bleep].

[Bulent] It's crazy, man.

[Kerra] There's so much stuff in here that we can use.

[Na'im] We got cardboard. Holy...

[Bulent] Don't push that [bleep]. It will just slide down.

[Na'im] We have cardboard.

[Kerra] Dude, that will burn so nicely.

[Na'im] Whoa!

[Kerra] There's so much stuff in here that we can use.

[Na'im] Whoa!

-Whoo! -Be careful.

-[Bulent] Everybody's good? -Yeah, we're all good.

Okay, maybe, like, one person at a time.

-[Na'im] All right. -Okay? [chuckles]

-You almost became the second little casualty. -Whoo!

[Bulent] I'm, like, "Oh, [bleep], we're about to die."

Thank God it stopped. That was really a "wake the hell up" moment.

[Kerra] There's goggles right there.

[Na'im] There's goggles right here.

-[Kerra] Oh, my-- -[Na'im] Nice. Check it out.

Lots of stuff. There's leather tarp here.

[Kerra] Oh, look. There's glass.

-Look at that. -[Bulent] Whoo!

-Oh, yeah. -[Na'im] Oh, yeah.

-Shank. -[Na'im] Oh, yeah!

-And we should definitely take this flap. -[Kerra] Okay.

[Bulent] It can reflect the heat from the fire.

[Na'im] All right. Well, we pretty much stripped this sucker clean.

-Head on down. -[Bulent] That's it.

[Kerra] Should we...

[Bulent] Open up a second-hand store? Yeah.

[Candice] Oh, my God, there's ants all over me.

-Your skin is reacting to those bites badly. -[Candice] I know.

[Justin] The bugs and the conditions can do that [bleep] again.

-[Candice] That's not a long-term thing at all. -[Rachel] No.

[Candice] Night one, we had no fire, and I was eaten alive by bugs.

It was chaos.

No sleep, and being attacked by this boar.

Like, I don't know what we would've done if he would've attacked us.

We had no weapons.

[Rachel] I don't know about you guys, but I am parched.

-[Justin] Yeah, we need water, dude. -[Rachel] I need water.

Oh, my God. Look at that.

It's crazy. Like, this was, like, a river yesterday and now it's completely dry.

Over the course of the morning,

we're really noticing how much the tides are changing here.

When we got here, this was a river and now it's just a river bed,

and we can walk across to the other side without having to swim.

[Justin] Oh! This must be the same water source, but the actual fresh [bleep].

That's actually probably more ideal than the other water.

We have a water source.

We think it's clean, but we don't know.

Just taste test this.

We need water. Water is more important than shelter or fire.

We haven't had water since we inserted yesterday.

-It's pretty fresh. -[Justin] Yeah?

Yeah. Like, it tastes really good.

-Yeah, that's pretty fresh. -[Candice] I think it's drinkable.

[Justin] The water's running, it tastes fresh, it doesn't taste salty.

And the water's clean to drink.

Tastes good to me. Tastes like dirt,

-but not like salt. -[Justin] Okay.

[Rachel] If we need water, we come up here when the tides weigh out,

-and it just guaranteed fresh water, you know? -[Justin] Yeah, I agree.

This is such a huge win for us.

And now we can really focus on getting fire tonight.

-I need the fire to happen. -[Justin] Yeah.

[Rachel] I am determined.

-[Andrew] Let me show you what I've been working on. -Yeah, show me.

We have a spindle top to hold, we have our rope,

we have one person on either side, spinning back and forth.

So we need the base on what to spin this on.

[Heather] Got a piece of wood that actually...

-Oh, this is the base? -[Heather] It's definitely worth a try.

[Andrew] Yeah.

It's just wide enough that if we put it in there,

we don't have to worry about having to make a notch in for it to get air.

-[Andrew] Maybe. Yeah, we could try that. -But it's at the perfect size.

-No, the other end. -It's...

-Down here? -[Heather] Yeah.

I'll do a little notch to start it, or else it's gonna be really hard

-to hold in place when I spin. -[Heather] No, no, no.

Yeah. No, I mean, a notch in the middle.

[Andrew] You know, I love that everyone has different opinions.

Heather's just very vocal about what you're doing wrong.

[Heather] We gotta make fire. A friction fire is possible.

[Andrew] It's literally what we need right now.

Let's see if this works.

[Heather] Needs to be a little bit... A lot more open.

[Andrew] All right. Um, Patrick first.

[bleep], nope. It's just... There's no divot for it to stay in.

[Heather] You weren't using your fingers hard enough.

Just... I'm not taking you away from your project.

-Just giving you an observation... -Yeah. Well, that's okay.

...of my experience doing it.

Yeah. I need to try something else, 'cause this board won't work.

I'm a little frustrated with her, but I'm trying to be cool.

I want us to have good camaraderie.

[Heather] I'm from the South, and I've made friction fires in the Everglades.

So I know it is possible to get a friction fire in this kind of an environment.

We're only on day two.

[Kerra] What is that, a shoestring?

-Maybe our pilot was trying to hunt. -[Kerra] Oh, yeah. Maybe.

[Bulent] By the end of this, we're gonna have a junkyard.

Good wood is difficult to find in, uh, here.

Huh? What is this guy?

This is a fuel gauge from a airplane that's crashed.

Huh, imagine that.

Hello, there.

This is godsent.

When you have a gauge, it's that little,

and it's sitting about four feet away from you, you can't see.

What happens is, you need a magnifying glass

in front of it to make it bigger.

[narrator] The convex shape of a magnifying glass

can also be used to concentrate sunlight

and create enough heat to ignite a flame.

[Bulent] It's like a catalyst,

so you are not down there trying to create friction fire for hours.

This makes it in a couple of minutes.

-[Kerra] How you doing? -All right.

-Okay. -I found this guy.

-[Na'im] Magnifying glass? -[laughs]

[Bulent] It's almost like a magnifying glass.

-[Na'im] Let's try and get a fire started then. -Yeah.

Dude! I see smoke from over here.

[Bulent] It is starting to smoke,

but by the time it's trying to turn into an ember,

the sun moves.

[Kerra] It's just toying with us.

It's burning, but not, like, going into flames.

We're, like, so close, yet so far away.

We have such thick canopy cover,

it's, like, damn near almost impossible

to keep the sun in one location long enough

for the fire to actually combust.

Come on, ass [bleep].

Come on.

Come on.

-[Na'im] Bulent. -[Bulent] Yeah.

[Na'im] Wanna double it?

[Kerra] Come on, bitch.

-Land, oh! -Land!

[narrator] The CRR, or Castaway Rescue Rating,

weighs each group's level of skill, ingenuity and problem-solving

to predict their odds of being rescued off the island after 21 days.

Heather, Andrew and Patrick worked together to explore the island...

How about a lighter?

-[Heather] Oh, my God! -[Patrick] Whoa!

[narrator] ...but have yet to fashion their finds...

Hard enough to get a spark at all.

[narrator] ...into fire.

[Andrew] Nope.

[narrator] They earn a Castaway Rescue Rating of 62%.

Candice, Rachel and Justin have shown persistence...

[Justin] Yeah, that's pretty fresh.

[Candice] I think it's drinkable.

[narrator] ...but remain vulnerable...

[Candice] What is that?

[narrator] ...to the threats of the jungle.

-[Justin] Hey! -[Rachel] Hey!

[narrator] Their team Castaway Rescue Rating is set at 53%.

And Bulent, Kerra and Na'im successfully scavenged debris from airplane wreckage...

This is God's gift.

[narrator] ...to try and turn sunlight into fire.

Come on, ass [bleep].

[narrator] They receive an initial CRR of 68%.

[Kerra] We're, like, so close, yet so far away.

-[Na'im] Right there. -[Kerry] Come on. There you go.

It's just toying with us. It's burning, but not, like, going into flames...

which is what we need.

Come on.

[Bulent] We need to move the...

I need open space. I think we should just migrate there.

I'll go give it a try.

[Na'im] If we don't have fire, it's gonna be miserable.

You're losing the ability to keep yourself warm, to cook,

to ward off insects at any level.

[Bulent] You see the speed of that when the intensity is right?

[exhales] Okay. This is it.

[Na'im] Oh!

Dude! Oh, my God!

Yeah!

[Na'im] Ah, [bleep].

Thank God, dude.

[Kerra] We finally have fire. That's incredible.

We desperately needed fire.

We were starting to feel hungry,

so now that we have fire, we can start thinking about proper food.

That, in itself, is a feat.

So, really proud of our team.

We need some firewood, so I'm gonna go get some.

-[Kerra] All right. -I'll be back.

[Kerra] Go do it.

Well, I can definitely make blades. Um...

So you wanna try to finagle the blades off of the fan?

[Na'im] Yeah, I can do that. All right.

Blade-making.

[rustling]

[Bulent] Holy [bleep].

It's a little armadillo.

No freaking knife.

[grunts]

I pinned him down.

I've never dealt with an armadillo before.

I don't know if they bite.

I don't know what they do.

It's not letting go.

He's a fighter.

He's... very strong.

He's just not quitting. He's such a fighter.

Whoa!
