PHIL KEOGHAN: Previously on Tough As Nails...
Tara injured her hand.
She cannot continue in the competition.
And Mikey "Eyebrows" has had to head home.
With both teams down to only five...
Savage Crew get their road built!
...Savage Crew paved their way to another team victory
-and now lead the team competition 2-1. -Good job.
In the individual competition,
Scott bulldozed his way to a win,
earning him an advantage
-in the next individual challenge. -Scott!
-While Knuckles and Angel stalled... -Oh, God.
You don't need to plow the ground!
Just move the tire!
...and sputtered...
-Sorry. -...finishing in last place.
-Ordinarily, we would be having an overtime. -What?
KEOGHAN: But it wasn't the end of the road for either of them.
Since Mikey is out of the competition,
Angel and Knuckles, you're safe.
[excited chatter]
Tonight, Dirty Hands is determined to stack up
-another win and even out the team score. -SCOTT: Let's go!
KEOGHAN: This is when the hard work really begins.
And in the individual competition,
Scott uses his advantage
to create a sheep show.
It's nothing personal, but I wanted
to see you two in overtime.
KEOGHAN: Who will stay in the battle
to beTough As Nails champion,
with a chance of winning the $200,000 prize?
-[shouting] -[barking]
-And who will punch out? -[shouting] -Stay.
No, no, no!
Come on.
Baa!
♪
LIZ: When I realized that we weren't gonna have to compete
against each other in overtime,
-that was one of the best moments of my life. -I was so happy.
It was like: the day my son was born... [chuckles]
the day I got married and the day Phil saved me
from-from overtime.
Yesterday,
I went from the lowest lows
to the highest highs.
I'm a little emotionally exhausted.
I just want to stay steady, get a win today.
MERRYL: What do you guys think is gonna be the team challenge today?
There was no hint.
-Zero. -It would be nice
to get a two-win cushion though.
-Absolutely. -SCOTT: Feeling pretty good.
We're up two to one.
-[laughing] -Got another win
under our belt going into number four.
Confident.
♪
I see hay.
ALL: Hey...
-Good morning, guys. -Good morning. -Morning.
Which one of you's a farmer?
CELI: I'm feeling right at home.
Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
Where I'm from, Lancaster, PA,
there's a little city.
In about 10 to 15 minutes, you can be
on the farm.
I milked cows.
I got to play with goats.
I'm feeling right at home.
IRAIDA: I have never been
in a farm before. [chuckles]
I come from Miami.
I've been there since I was five years old.
I am a city girl. [chuckles]
Definitely. This is all new to me.
Good morning, guys!
-Good morning! -Hey! Morning, Phil! -Come on over.
SCOTT: Watch out for the cow pies.
Are we ready to go?
-Oh, yeah. -Yes.
-Yeah! -Angel got a little bling today.
Well, the style is tips,
and I'm a different tip today.
Today, I'm-a win this challenge.
-Gonna win it for your team. -Yeah.
Today, I'm wearing my tips,
'cause...
as soon as I show up to a job site
with the grills on,
people know that I'm in for business.
Right now, the team scores, two to one.
Dirty Hands, you need all the help you can get
if you want to even up that score.
Today is gonna be a hardworking day.
-Everybody know where you are? -OTHERS: A farm!
Yeah, you're on a farm.
There's about two million farmers in the United States,
and today you are going to be picking up 40-pound straw bales.
To get the job done,
you will be using a Ford F-150 truck and trailer.
When that work whistle blows, each team needs to pick up
100 bales, spread out in three rows.
It's gonna take you three trips.
One row per load and deliver them to the barn
way off in the distance there. Once you get over
to your barn, you have to stack 'em.
This job is spread out over a big distance.
Good communication and planning is going to be
a key factor.
It's not just about muscling it.
First team to get it done will win...
[whooping, applause]
...$12,000...
...and today's Badge of Honor.
For me, when I used to play football,
I'm not in the locker room thinking about...
how good my opponent is.
I don't care how big, how strong you are.
My mindset is "I'm gonna beat you."
Dirty Hands, did you talk about who was gonna be
the crew boss today?
-I'm taking it. -Okay.
I watch over a few crews,
working high-voltage lines every day.
I'm always pretty composed, and I'm good at delegating, so...
Savage Crew, have you thought about who's gonna be
-the crew boss? -Oh, yeah.
I'm in charge of these guys because,
ever since I was a young man, I been taking charge.
I was born to be a leader.
I'm crew boss today.
I got supervisor experience.
In my current job,
I was in charge of 12 people
on a daily basis,
so everything's on me to make sure
that this job goes correctly.
Let's get to work!
[work whistle blows]
PATRICK: Zeus, start up the car when you get there.
KEOGHAN: [whoops] Look at Zeus go,
looking every bit like a college running back.
-Zeus first to the truck. -[grunts, panting]
I'm ready right here. Let's go.
KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands the first
to start picking up their straw bales.
Now here comes Savage Crew.
SCOTT: Let's go.
KEOGHAN: Each team has to load three rows
of straw bales.
Total of 100 straw bales.
-CELI: Keep going? -SWIFTY: Just throw 'em all, throw 'em all.
The initial plan is Celi was driving.
Everybody else was to load and unload,
try to stick together.
It's gonna take the whole team
to get this job done.
KEOGHAN: Savage Crew with a different strategy--
only one person on the back so they have more room to maneuver.
Let's get this nice. We got to get those out of the way.
Start stacking that middle.
ZEUS: Today, I'm delegating roles.
Patrick's gonna drive. That's the first role.
That's the most obvious one.
And then me and Angel loading them on the trailer
and Iraida and Liz stacking the bales.
KEOGHAN: Both teams getting through this challenge very, very quickly.
But, Savage Crew, you have a slight lead though.
Go, Celi, go! Hold on, hold on!
Everything is clicking.
-Let's go! -It just shows you that
we have to do what we do best, which is communicate,
and we're on our way.
Let's get out of here.
KEOGHAN: Savage Crew
getting the first row done!
They're heading to the barn.
We're good. I liked it.
ZEUS: Let's go, let's go!
KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands heading away now.
Both teams with their first row cleared.
Two to go.
Much better packing on the trailer from Savage Crew.
Dirty Hands' bales are looking precarious.
SCOTT: I think you get all three loads up here as fast as you can.
Let's unload the whole thing and put it against the wall.
-You want it all in and against the wall right now? -All in. All in.
This is gonna be the hardest part.
I think we should all help
-unload the hay bales... -ZEUS: Right, yeah.
...and leave some and I can drag and stack
-while you guys go and get the next batch. -Right.
ZEUS: I say all of us take the time to stacking.
That's the most important part. Then we can
all go back. I don't want to leave
one person here, 'cause we need them out there.
LIZ: I do have a moment
of doubting Zeus's strategy.
But he's the crew boss, so I put my head down.
This is what we're gonna do.
ZEUS: Me, Liz, Patrick
and Angel will run these. Iraida, start organizing.
KEOGHAN: This is when the hard work really begins,
getting those straw bales off the trailer
and then into the barn.
Angel running with his straw bale.
-Got it? Squeeze that string. -Yeah. I got it.
-Okay. -I got it.
The straw bales are 40 pounds,
so we're holding them up on our shoulders.
But I'm not just a diva.
I'm used to picking up heavy patients.
When I was a teenager, I was a busgirl,
so we used to hold a lot of dishes on a tray,
and it was probably about the same weight.
I'm pretty strong. [chuckles]
ZEUS: Let's go.
IRAIDA: Two,
-three! -[grunts]
So, we figured out,
I'm gonna stay on top of the trailer,
and then I'm gonna help them put it on their shoulder
so they don't have to do everything.
Once I help 'em put it on their shoulder,
they can go ahead and take it.
Savage Crew maybe a hair
ahead at this point, but not by much.
SCOTT: Get the rest of those off the trailer and go back!
I can finish this.
-SWIFTY: No, no, no. -Yeah!
SWIFTY: It's gonna overwhelm you.
SCOTT: I know Swifty-- he wants everyone
to stay and to stack.
I don't agree.
I want everyone
to get it off the trailer as fast as possible
and get that truck and trailer out of there.
The superintendent in me
is wanting to kind of run this.
That's just who I am.
We got to go.
Go right now, Aracelis!
Go!
Sarah, go!
We'll finish this.
Go. Get in the truck.
-Truck's leaving. -Huh? -CELI: Go!
-Swifty, come on! -SCOTT: Let's go!
SWIFTY: I don't know
who made that call.
CELI: No, we need a head start.
That's not a head start.
It wasn't a team call.
It wasn't something that we discussed together.
KEOGHAN: Bold move from Savage Crew.
They've split up! Scott and Merryl
staying at the barn to pack up the first load
while Celi, Sarah and Swifty head back
to the field to pick up the second load.
They now have the lead.
-Zeus, he's going back. -I don't care.
Somebody can go back with the truck.
Savage Crew left two people
at the barn,
and everyone's panicking.
There's no way three people are gonna get
all the bales of straw in the trailer.
They're gonna go back with less people.
We got more to stack.
KEOGHAN: Here comes Savage Crew,
back for their second load of straw bales.
SARAH: Right here, Celi, right here.
KEOGHAN: They've got to complete three rows.
So far, they've done one.
-Come on, come on, come on! -[panting]
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
They don't have enough people to stack.
-We're good, we're good. -Pace yourselves. Take advantage.
-They're gonna get tired. -KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands heading back to the field
to pick up more straw bales with their entire team.
Savage Crew have left two teammates at the barn.
SCOTT: We got a big head start.
-I think it's gonna be good. -They're already piling up. Look.
SCOTT: Yeah? Yeah.
-We're good. -Damn, Scott, you're smart sometimes.
[laughs] Some-- Every once in a while.
Every once in a while, you got one.
Every once in a while, I come up with something good.
Last one.
Good?
KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands coming back
for their second row of straw bales.
Hop out. Let's go. Hop out!
KEOGHAN: They've got some catching up to do.
Come on, Dirty Hands.
KEOGHAN: Deciding to stick together as a team of five.
We're gonna find out which strategy is the best.
Don't pick it up till I get to the wheel well!
No extra motion there.
I don't do stacking
as much anymore, 'cause I'm a driver,
but, you know, I started out loading the trucks.
So I learned limited motion-- you save all your energy.
KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands have caught up to Savage Crew.
Swifty and Sarah are getting gassed
out here in the field, while Merryl and Scott,
they're at a standstill, waiting back at the barn.
SWIFTY: I was winded.
We-we needed all hands on deck.
That's why, you know, I really didn't want to split.
KEOGHAN: Both teams have delivered
one of their three rows of bales.
Now loading up their second row.
Keep it up, keep it up!
KEOGHAN: Wow, look at them working here, Dirty Hands.
ZEUS: Move, move!
KEOGHAN: And they have now gone past Savage Crew.
Savage Crew have left a lot of muscle back in the barn.
Merryl and Scott have to be regretting
their strategy choice at this point.
This could cost them the win.
Shoot.
KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands complete loading
-their second row of bales. -ZEUS: Let's go!
In the truck, in the truck!
KEOGHAN: Savage Crew struggling to keep pace.
Scott and Merryl are left idle back at the barn.
This was a good move from Dirty Hands.
Savage Crew left two people at the barn, and...
that was a crucial mistake.
It was hard for the five of us to get
that entire row of straw
on the trailer.
KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands heading back
with their second load, and they take the lead.
ANGEL: Dirty, dirty!
ALL: Hands!
Gosh dang it. They're coming around already.
-They're coming around. -Shoot.
SCOTT: When I saw Dirty Hands, I knew.
I should've listened to Swifty. I know that.
We're getting too far behind. Go!
This is close.
Both teams have picked up two-thirds of their 100 bales.
Only one row to go.
Dirty Hands already unloading,
and Scott and Merryl waiting for their team
to turn up with more straw bales.
Every time Angel goes to work, he is hustling.
ANGEL: I'm gonna try to win that money for my family.
I want to give my son everything I never had.
I know what it's like to show up to school
and you've been wearing the same pants
for six months, and you grew out of them,
and your ankles are showing.
And everybody's making fun of you.
We should've been a lot sooner leaving
if we wanted to do that-- if not, just stayed.
SWIFTY: We know what happened. Well, we're here. Come on.
-Let's go. -MERRYL: Okay.
SWIFTY: Nobody has quit
'cause we know what we can do
if we work together.
I think we, uh, we got a chance.
Iraida prepping these straw bales for her teammates.
[whoops] This is good work.
You got it?
Last one.
-ZEUS: In the truck! -ANGEL: In the truck.
-ZEUS: Let's go! -In the truck.
ZEUS: Let's go, let's go, let's go!
KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands heading back to pick up their third
and final row of straw bales.
They want to even up that team score
and get today's $12,000.
We got... we got this.
SWIFTY: Get in the truck, get in the truck!
KEOGHAN: Savage Crew, they really are gonna have to dig deep.
An all-out effort.
Both teams back to the field
to pick up their last row of straw bales.
ZEUS: Finish it!
Come on, Dirty Hands.
LIZ: Push it!
KEOGHAN: Savage Crew looking to catch up.
MERRYL: We're frustrated,
but we have to finish the job,
finish the mission.
We got to start busting our butts right now to catch up.
Keep going! Keep strolling!
ZEUS: How much more we got, guys?
-LIZ: Seven, after these. -ZEUS: Perfect.
-ANGEL: Oh, no, no, no! -IRALDA: We left one! Hold on, wait!
LIZ: Okay, okay, okay. Hold up!
-Stop, stop, stop! -Guys, wait!
KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands slowed down.
We got to catch up.
ANGEL: We didn't win yet. Let's go.
SWIFTY: Go ahead, go ahead!
KEOGHAN: This is gonna come down to the final load
being packed into the barn.
$12,000 up for grabs and a Badge of Honor.
Dirty Hands coming back with their last load of straw bales.
Finish strong, guys. Finish strong.
Top.
[grunts]
KEOGHAN: Savage Crew not out of it yet.
Celi, go.
KEOGHAN: And they are on their way back now.
Dirty Hands rolls in.
Can they keep their heads and get this job done?
I'm not stopping winning.
I'm hungry.
KEOGHAN: Straight away, Angel, going to work.
Right behind them, here's Savage Crew.
I know there's fight in you guys. Come on.
Let's go.
SCOTT: I don't feel great, because I don't want to be
what causes my teammates some money.
I'm gonna give it everything I have.
I'm not gonna cause us loss.
KEOGHAN: Grit, determination.
Mental toughness. It ain't over yet.
Not when you're talking about someone like Sarah.
This is a fighter.
I'm tough, I think, because of how I grew up.
I never give up.
At 26 years old,
I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes.
So, "Oh, you can't just go out and just do whatever you want."
Total bullcrap.
I knew I could just fight through anything, really.
KEOGHAN: It ain't over till it's over.
Nobody here wants to quit.
ANGEL: Let's go!
KEOGHAN: Dirty Hands coming down to their last bale.
Angel running back to get it.
Savage Crew still fighting.
ANGEL: Come on, move!
KEOGHAN: Last straw bale coming in from Dirty Hands!
And Dirty Hands get the win!
All right!
[all panting]
LIZ: Angel.
All right, thank you.
IRAIDA: I love you guys, man.
-That's on me. We should've listened to you. -Us.
It's us. We should've stuck together.
-We should've listened to you. -Hey.
Go. Go in.
I think I cost my team this win.
And that's...
that's hard for me to take.
I wasn't a good teammate today.
Got to hand it to you, Dirty Hands.
You wanted to even up the team score.
Zeus, you were the crew boss today.
It was a team effort.
Everybody here killed it.
Again, everybody fell into their roles, as usual.
LIZ: Zeus did great as a crew boss.
I love a leader with a clear plan.
Winning feels good.
We also got to look at Savage Crew.
Tell us what didn't work.
He had a really good plan going into it.
Kind of overstepped my...
my role, and that's my fault.
If anybody should shoulder this blame, it's me.
You get that, you get that responsibility,
you take that hit.
So I'll take it.
We don't make excuses over here.
-Nope. -You'll see us again.
But today, the win goes to Dirty Hands
-and the crew boss, Zeus. -[applause]
-$12,000 for you and today's Badge of Honor. -[whoops]
-Yeah. Yeah, Zeus. -Congratulations. Great work.
You guys should be super proud of yourselves.
The score is two to Dirty Hands
and two to Savage Crew.
Tomorrow, we're back to the individual competition.
You're all tough, but we're here to find out
who is the toughest of them all.
Tomorrow is the individual challenges.
I'm here for my family.
I want to set up a better future for my kids.
That's all the motivation I need to be able
to be like, "Nope, you're not my teammate no more." [chuckles]
SWIFTY: Man, that was tough.
So it would've been nice, like, "Oh,
I did it for Lancaster today."
-You know, even though I grew up in the city... -Mm-hmm.
...the farms were, like, ten minutes away.
I'm really enjoying getting to know Celi.
I call her "24/7."
She's always ready to go.
-I mean, seriously, Celi, this is you, really? -Seriously.
[laughing]: Even the smell just reminds me of home.
You wouldn't think someone like me would be on a farm.
SWIFTY: This is something brand-new for me.
-Yep. [laughs] -I went to a petting zoo as a kid and that was it.
It was just a very dynamic upbringing.
So it made me not be afraid to get dirty. [laughs]
But I'm not Dirty Hands.
[laughing]
[moos]
CELI: I wouldn't be surprised
if we're playing in cow manure today. [laughs]
What if we jump in it like that eel bucket?
[laughter]
Making poop angels.
If I had the right equipment, I would for $200,000.
Still thinking about yesterday's loss.
I mean, it was a hard hit.
But today's a new day,
and I'm here to win 200,000, win a truck,
show all the diabetics out there they can do anything.
LIZ: How do you guys feel about
competing against each other today?
Please stay away from overtime, man.
That's a horrible feeling.
ZEUS: I want everyone in here
to not go in overtime, all right?
Someone in this van is taking the 200.
I have never had that much money in my life, like...
-Hello. -Yeah.
-You know how much we have to work for that? -Yeah.
-I-I've been getting into a lot with subcontractors. -LIZ: Yeah.
They started paying me nine dollars an hour,
and I was supposed to be making 15.
Oh, my God.
I'm not part of a union. I don't have a retirement plan.
I don't have medical insurance.
That's why you need a union.
We're gonna teach you everything,
and we're gonna help you out.
ANGEL: My teammates opened up my eyes
so that I can do some research
and hopefully I can get, uh, better options
once I leave here.
-SCOTT: This is gonna be "baaad." -[laughter]
SARAH: Oh, my God.
-Good morning. -ALL: Good morning.
Individual competition day.
-You are going to be working in pairs. -Ah.
In the center of the field, there are five pens.
One for each pair.
There's also 40 sheep.
-20 at this end... -[sheep bleating]
...and 20 at this end.
When the work whistle blows, you'll be working in pairs
to get your four sheep into your designated pen.
The last pair to get the job done
will be going up against each other in overtime.
So, you'll start off working with each other.
The final pair will then be going against each other.
And by the end of the day, one of you will be punching out,
'cause there will be only one Tough As Nailschampion.
Scott, because you won the last individual competition,
you're gonna get to pick the pairs.
You got to think very carefully about this.
Being a supervisor and a superintendent,
I pair people up to work in groups all the time.
I'm focused on winning this challenge
and staying out of O.T.
For me, I'm choosing Sarah.
Sarah has been just so strong.
We communicate well, and that's gonna be a key thing.
Second pairing.
Swifty and Merryl.
-Celi with Liz. -All right.
I'm excited to work with people from their team,
just to get to know each other, but I'm a little bit nervous,
because we're gonna have to be calm with the sheep,
and Celi's a very excitable person.
But I also know she's a nurse.
She has that calm bedside manner,
you know, somewhere in there. [chuckles]
Next pairing, Iraida and Zeus.
KEOGHAN: Okay, and your last pairing is Angel and Freight Train.
SCOTT: It's nothing personal,
but I want to see you two in overtime.
It's a strategy of mine.
[laughter]
SCOTT: I know Angel is a strong competitor.
He's built like an absolute stallion.
Like, you put something on his shoulders
and tell him to run, and he'll go all day.
You know, Patrick's been consistent
and can get things done and has a lot of knowledge,
has a lot of background.
Either of them could win the individual prize,
so I hope they kind of mess things up
and they have to face each other in overtime.
Okay, this is gonna be a battle of wills,
because these sheep are gonna want to be together.
Coerce them into the pens.
Work with them.
You ready to get the job done?
-Yeah! -KEOGHAN: Let's do it!
All right!
Scott chose me and Freight Train.
I feel complimented that I am a threat to him.
If he believes
that I can win this,
then I should believe I can win this.
KEOGHAN: It's gonna be a sheep show!
[sheep bleating]
Release the sheep!
Remember, you got to get four sheep in your pen.
Everybody ready
-to get the job done? -Ready. -Yes.
Let's do it!
[work whistle blows]
♪
-Scott, get ahead now. -[shouting]
KEOGHAN: There's no clear approach here.
Celi and Knuckles running around the field without purpose.
-[shouting continues] -Oh, they're jumping right over.
These poor sheep are confused.
MERRYL: I have no idea what I'm doing.
I'm pulling out every...
sad tool in my tool belt.
[imitating dog barking]
The sheep were just looking at us like...
we are dumb humans.
No sheep in the pen.
Don't break until we get them to the pen.
-Come on! -Ah-ah-ah!
♪
♪ Mm, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba, mm, ba...♪
-[shouting] -Ah-ah-ah-ah! -Right here.
-Please! [whistling] -Sit in there. Come. Come join your friends.
Four sheep in the pen wins it.
-[imitating dog barking] -[bleating]
[barking]
It's chaos. It's-it's...
You're thinking you're getting the sheep in one direction,
but they're going the other direction,
so I'm thinking maybe if they heard
a familiar sound that maybe they would follow.
[barking]
[groans]
[barks, laughs]
That didn't work.
They're gonna go in, ah...
-Oh! -♪ Baa, baa, black sheep♪
♪ Have you any...♪
KEOGHAN: Interesting technique here from Angel.
Stay! Stay! Hey!
I don't want to say "hot mess,"
but for the first good portion
of this whole competition today, it was a... it's a hot mess.
This is a game of chess. This is not game of soccer.
SCOTT: We're chasing sheep. They're jumping over us.
They're running around us.
Come on.
KEOGHAN: This could be a documentary
on how not to sheep herd.
It'd be a miracle to see one sheep to get corralled today.
-Hey, hey, hey! Come in, right here! -Oh, no!
-Has anybody gotten any? -Hey!
-Just make a wall. -Come on.
-Let them walk. Let them choose where they want to go. -Come on.
We just guide them.
ZEUS: The first strategy, I guess,
going into it wasn't working.
Why are we chasing the sheep?
Like, why are we running towards them?
Okay, we're gonna work it easy.
My job, uh, as a power line technician,
we can stay pretty calm under pressure.
You need to be a hundred percent all the time,
because that two percent you're not is
basically when you're gonna lose your life.
Okay. Funnel easy.
And by speaking, like, really calming,
I think it may have made...
made the sheep feel more calm, you know?
Iraida, Iraida, work on this pack with us.
-Okay. -Angel, keep doing it, Angel!
KEOGHAN: Zeus thinks he's got this figured out,
and now he's giving advice to all the pairs.
If we start filling pens, we'll be able to work
in our smaller groups, 'cause there's gonna be less sheep.
Even though this is an individual competition,
I'm seeing that we have to work together in order
to move forward with the competition.
It's-it's not gonna happen on its own.
We all have to work together on this.
Let's get them to the gates, and then we'll separate.
-Quietly. -MERRYL: We came in
with a lot of energy, all of us.
You know, you just have to be kind of calm,
like the U-2, just go fly and just...
fly your path, be calm about it.
Take deep breaths, feel the Zen,
do your job.
KEOGHAN: They've realized that the frantic approach
does not work.
Hey, guys, we have to work together!
Slow, slow, slow.
KEOGHAN: Now we have five pairs
who have agreed that they're gonna try working together.
And once they get close enough,
they're gonna have to work separately.
Let's go. Come on, guys. Let's go.
KEOGHAN: This is looking good.
SWIFTY: They're going. Just keep going.
I need you right here, please.
KEOGHAN: There you are. That-that calmness is good.
Yeah. See? Look at that.
-And... -Shut it, shut it, shut it, Celi.
-Shut it! -Shut it, shut it, Celi.
Celi and Knuckles with the first sheep!
Okay, we got one.
CELI: Me and Knuckles actually get our first sheep.
Now we know that we have to get behind the sheep
and push them in the direction of the pens,
because if you're in front of them,
they're not gonna go to you; they're scared of you.
Do you guys want to come with me?
I have your friend.
The sheep whisperer.
Guess what. They're going in my direction.
[laughs]: So we're gonna push them this way.
Doing good?
[bleating]
We'll get your friends over shortly.
-Whoa! -Close it back.
Freight Train and Angel get their first sheep in the pen!
Get up on them. Get up on them.
This pace is great. This pace is great.
Swifty, hands out like defensive basketball.
Four sheep, guys, that's all you need.
-Celi, get them in, get them in, get them in. -Oh, no, Liz.
Yes, I got one.
KEOGHAN: Good job, Liz and Celi!
We got two! Get that gate shut!
Knuckles and Celi have two sheep in.
Okay, Freight Train, Freight Train?
I got some, I got some...
KEOGHAN: Oh, look at this!
Zeus and Iraida get all four sheep in the pen!
They take the win!
Safe from overtime.
They've agreed to work with the other teams
to get the job done.
Swifty, could I get you to open our gate, please?
In, in, in, in, in, in.
KEOGHAN: Swifty and Merryl, only one more sheep to go.
Once I saw the first sheep go in, yeah,
this is every man for himself, and the only way for Merryl
and I to be successful is for us to switch over and focus on us.
Swifty, one more!
-Yeah! -Let's go.
KEOGHAN: Swifty and Merryl have their job done.
It's a lot on the line-- 200,000 and a truck.
See? We're helping you here, Scott.
-Calm down. -There you go.
-All right? -Bam! Boom!
KEOGHAN: Scott and Sarah get the job done.
-You're welcome, Scott. -Got it in there? Got it in there?
KEOGHAN:Three completes, just two to go.
Celi, we're gonna have to get our own group...
-Okay. Okay. -...and try and do this together.
I think we're starting to fall behind a little bit here.
I really want to represent my trade,
and I want to go far-- as far as I can.
I-I'm hoping that I'm-I'm showing that
even though, you know, I am older,
that my job prepares me to be able to do this.
Delivery men are strong.
I'm gonna push them forward.
ANGEL: Freight Train was really trying to help other people.
So I split from him. I'm like, yo, I'm just trying
to get them close, and then from there,
if they're close by mine's, I'm-a get them in.
Like, I'm here to win.
At the end of the day, I have to go back home
to the people that are depending on me,
and I can't let them down.
Freight Train and Angel need to get their job done.
Celi and Knuckles just need two more sheep
to get their job done.
LIZ: You got to chase them into my--
You got to help me, you got to help me.
-PATRICK: Open it, open it. -Swifty, come...
-KEOGHAN: Sheep want to be together. -Come with me.
-Don't let 'em out! -KEOGHAN: Watch out, Freight Train! It's just gone!
-Hey, hey, hey. -[Angel grunts]
Just stay calm.
-Go around that way. -KEOGHAN: Knuckles and Celi, two sheep in the pen.
They need two more to get the job done.
Meanwhile, Freight Train and Angel have no sheep in the pen.
-Let's go. Let's go. -Stay outside. Don't let them go.
KEOGHAN: The losing pair today will be going in overtime,
facing off against each other.
And by the end of the day,
one of them will be punching out.
Come, come, come.
Yes. Close it.
-Boom! -KEOGHAN: Freight Train
and Angel get three sheep in the pen.
Just need one more to get the job done.
That'll spoil Scott's plan of pushing them into overtime.
-Ooh. -Wow, wow.
KEOGHAN: Wow, I don't know. That might be overkill.
Celi and Knuckles have eight sheep in their pen.
They need to let out half of them
before Freight Train and Angel
get one more sheep in their pen.
PATRICK: Angel, Angel.
Let's get the whole group over here
and we'll work together. Come on.
KEOGHAN: This is a race
to see who's gonna be in overtime.
-Got to get your four sheep out.-Easy, easy.
KEOGHAN: That's seven.
No, follow 'em over. Come on.
KEOGHAN: That's six.
PATRICK: Hey, guys, let's get us two.
KEOGHAN: It's a race against the clock.
And that is four.
It is over, everybody.
Everybody got the job done
except for Angel and Freight Train,
who are missing one sheep.
You remember when you lost that one sheep, earlier on?
That was your winning sheep. It was in the pen.
And it jumped out.
SWIFTY: That was a integrity challenge.
Once we figured out what we needed to do,
if we had done that in the beginning,
we would've got done a lot sooner.
We were trying to walk that edge between competition and helping.
It was crazy. [chuckles]
I respect the people that do this for a living.
The skill to herd sheep--
I have never done that in my life.
I've never even been around a sheep in my life.
ANGEL: I'm glad we did it this way 'cause, if not,
we would've been running all day.
You were so close. It literally came down to one sheep.
PATRICK: I feel bad for Angel,
because I hear his story.
I don't need this like Angel does.
And it makes me feel bad
that I might have to take him out of the competition.
This guy's awesome.
He need, he needs this.
-He needs this win? -PATRICK: He needs this a lot more than me.
ANGEL: I know, uh, the way he's thinking.
And I really appreciate him and, you know,
uh, he's a great guy, too.
He's an amazing father.
And if it's not my time, it's not my time.
PATRICK: It's in God's hands.
It wasn't meant to be, it wasn't meant to be.
-You know? -Right. That's the way I think, too.
I feel like a jerk about it.
No, don't feel that way. Don't feel that way.
SCOTT: Angel and Patrick are going to overtime.
Originally, that's who I wanted into overtime.
So, in a weird way, it worked out,
but I feel bad afterwards.
You know, Patrick's awesome, but I think Patrick could
take a dive for Angel.
I think he's that kind of guy
who just says, "This kid deserves it.
I might just let him win."
KEOGHAN: Well, Angel and Freight Train,
since you were the last to get the job done, that does mean
that you will be going into overtime.
By the end of the day, one of you will be punching out
of the individual competition.
You're gonna lose your shot at that money and also that truck.
-[applause] -All right, good job, everybody.
I'll see you at overtime.
♪
ANGEL: I take pride in what I do.
And every time you
walk into work, you have to
walk in, like, with full force.
I definitely have the heart to push myself.
Nothing's gonna stop me.
Like, I'm here to win.
PATRICK: Everything that I do now
is for my wife and my girls to try to make sure
that they have everything they need.
$200,000 would mean so much to us.
With a wedding coming up and both daughters
going to college... They're hardworking,
and they're paying a lot of it on their own.
I would like to make it
so that they don't have to start with debt.
Angel, Freight Train, unfortunately,
you were the last pair to get your sheep into a pen,
which means you're going into overtime.
This is a chance for you to fight it out
to try to stay in contention
for the overall Tough As Nailstitle.
Does anybody know
why you hold a horseshoe up like this?
Luck doesn't run out.
Luck stays inside, right. Doesn't run out.
Unfortunately, luck will run out for one of you today,
because one of you will be punching out.
What you're gonna be doing on this job
is making two horseshoes.
You'll be forging a piece of steel
using heat and the tools that you see in front of you.
Everything you need to know is inside this book.
Gives you step-by-step instructions.
You get stuck, go to your book.
You have an anvil.
You have a forge
that heats up your metal.
Once it's heated up, you can work with it.
Working with these tools, you need to make
two perfect horseshoes.
You'll know that they're perfect when they fit into this gauge.
If it fits in there nice and flush
and you can run this over the top of your horseshoe...
that'll be a perfectly-made horseshoe.
The first person
to shape their piece of steel,
punch two holes for the nails
and then hang two complete horseshoes
to this post right here will stay in contention
for the Tough As Nailstitle.
-You understand what to do? -Mm-hmm.
It's something new, but I've been in situations
where I don't know something and I figure it out, so...
There is a lot on the line here.
ANGEL: I respect Freight Train.
I think he has a lot of experience.
He's an awesome teammate.
You know, he was trying to give me advice
about the whole union situation.
And, you know, he was
just talking to me like-like I was one of his kids.
But, unfortunately, I got to think about my life, too,
and I got to prioritize myself.
Angel, Freight Train, chaps on. Let's get to work.
-Let's go! -All right, guys.
PATRICK: I really wish, this overtime, I'd be going against
somebody from Savage Crew 'cause it's bittersweet
trying to take out one of your own teammates.
Angel is so tough of-- as a competitor.
He does not stop.
He's just the little engine that could, you know?
I'm the freight train, slow and steady.
His energy is gonna be
tough to beat in this challenge.
On the work whistle.
[work whistle blows]
First thing we got to do is get that steel in there.
I feel extremely confident
because, at work, I have experience using my hands.
Freight Train-- he's a driver,
so I may have the advantage in that sense.
KEOGHAN: Freight Train gets on to his anvil.
PATRICK: Every competition, I have
a little something in my pocket to remember
why I'm here. It's my girls and my wife.
This is what I'm here for.
KEOGHAN: There you go.
That's a good grab right there.
Use your tools properly.
Angel's picking up the pace now.
Nice work. Got a good shape going here.
-MERRYL: Good job, Angel. -SARAH: Yeah.
Remember, it's got to fit into the gauge perfectly.
Angel's putting his first shoe in.
Thinks he's got the shape right.
Angel taking off the slag.
-Slow down, slow down, slow down. -Angel, slow and steady.
It's ironwork, so in my head,
it's like, you got to get tough and get it done.
Angel very close to getting his shoe into the gauge.
He's realized that he's got to open up his shoe.
His shoe's a little tight.
Good job, Freight Train.
PATRICK: I know Angel.
Angel is a mile a minute.
Sometimes that's gonna mess you up, especially when
-you're working with heat like this. -Freight Train,
you got this. You're still in this, Freight Train.
-Let's go. -PATRICK: Skills that I've learned
from being on delivery time.
You got to be methodical. You got to try to make
-every move count. -KEOGHAN: Swifty,
you ever done anything like this before?
Never. Never.
I bet you'd be really good
because you understand using heat
-and pressure. -SWIFTY: Yep.
I understand the different looks
of the metal as it's heated.
That orangish color makes it pliable
where you could bend it.
That darker red
is where you can actually start
to punch but not go all the way through,
and that-that dark gray color is where you get that hole
actually through there and nail it into that post.
SARAH: Angel, don't get desperate.
KEOGHAN: Angel has got his piece of steel on the ground,
trying to pick it up with his tongs.
He is panicking.
He needs to slow down.
PATRICK: I'm just focusing on me.
I know how fast he's moving. He's got to be ahead of me.
KEOGHAN: But he's run out of heat.
He needs to go back to the forge.
He's gonna need to heat the shoe up.
Remember, slow, steady and deliberate.
Good job, Freight Train, good job.
PATRICK: My whole process is to stay slow, steady,
less of the running back and forth.
If you don't put the shoe in the heat long enough,
it's not gonna bend fast enough.
So, there is a lot of standing around.
And then when it gets out the heat, that's when
you have to start moving fast, 'cause then you got to beat it.
-IRAIDA: Hey, patience. It's not a rush! -Angel,
-calm down, calm down. -IRAIDA: Patience.
This is not a timed competition.
Angel, your forge is open.
Gentle with the... forge.
IRAIDA: Take your time.
-Oh! Oh! -Oh!
Big move from Freight Train.
He's got his first shoe
-in the gauge. -God, man. What?
-Oh! Oh! He got it. -Oh!
-He got it. -KEOGHAN: Big move from Freight Train.
He's got his first shoe in the gauge.
PATRICK: First time I put it in the gauge,
and it actually fit right.
-Got to get two made. -PATRICK: I've got to make
the holes for the nails.
I haven't heard that Angel's got any
done yet. I might be taking Angel out.
Angel, you're so close.
-You got this. -ANGEL: I was behind
because I was being a little bit too aggressive.
God, man.
Keep at it, Angel. Keep at it.
KEOGHAN: Angel's still got a chance.

That horseshoe is extremely hot.
23 minutes gone.
Freight Train has his horseshoe in the gauge.
He's testing it.

-[metal sizzles] -Nice job.
Ooh.
MERRYL: Angel's very strong
in physical challenges.
But if he has a weakness,
he always rushes when he gets frustrated.
KEOGHAN: Freight Train with his first horseshoe
up on the post.
Got to get two made.
ZEUS: Good job, Freight Train. Good job.
KEOGHAN: Freight Train, one to go.
Angel has actually slowed down, though.
That's good.
ANGEL: I realized that there's gonna be
a time where you got to be fast, and then there's gonna be
a time where you really need to slow down.
Everything had to do with fire,
but I kept letting mine's get cold.
I was running around too much.
But now I can win this.
KEOGHAN: Angel almost got his first horseshoe done.
Keep it going, Angel. Let's get a horseshoe complete.
SCOTT: Let's go, Angel. Don't stop!
KEOGHAN: Freight Train working on
his second horseshoe. He has one up in the air.
-That is close. -Come on, Angel. Let's go.
Nice, Freight Train.
Get the job done.
PATRICK: I just don't want
to see Angel lose.
PATRICK: That's the hard part,
knowing that I'm taking his
chance at the money away.
Check that. Ooh, there you go, Freight Train.
-MERRYL: Freight Train, come on. -Get the job done.
Freight Train, finish it.
There you go, Angel.
PATRICK: Somebody's got to punch out. Somebody's got to win.
It doesn't feel good, but
you're here for your family.
Angel's not giving up, Freight Train.
He's still going.
Nail it up, Freight Train. Get the job done.
IRAIDA: I got really sad because Freight Train--
he's a good person, he's a good dad,
you know, he knows he won, and it's hurting him.
KEOGHAN: Freight Train with his second horseshoe up under the post.
Hey!
-Man. -Oh, I'm gonna cry.
Great job, my friend. You did amazing.
Oh, you know, I blew it, but I blew it giving it my all.
I did my best, you know,
and he won fair and square.
I-I respect Freight Train. I think he's an amazing person.
He's a great father,
and he has to remind himself
why he's here.
He has to think about his family first.
Freight Train, lot of emotions flowing through you.
[exhales sharply]
I love this guy. He's my teammate.
I know how much he needs this.
I need it for my family, too, but...
Of course, man.
PATRICK: I don't want to take my teammate out, and I love him.
No, no. Claro,man. I'm glad you did your best.
And congratulations, man.
And it's not over for me.
It's not over for us! [laughs]
We got more to do, man. There's more team challenges.
You know, I mean, just $2,400 makes a difference in my life.
There's still more to go, man, and my son's gonna see that.
KEOGHAN: Angel, what your son is gonna see is somebody
who is committed to getting the job done.
You care about your teammates.
Unfortunately, today, you're out of the individual
Tough As Nailscompetition.
Like you said, on Tough As Nails,
you stay here because your team-- they need you.
Oh, yeah, we're gonna work twice as hard for you, Angel.
And I'm gonna work twice as hard, too, man.
And I saw you hesitating like you wanted
to give up and let him win, but we came here for one reason,
and that's for our family.
Just know that I have respect and love for you guys,
and we still have so much more money to win.
-I love you guys. -Yes. -Word.
[excited chatter]
Angel, I'm sorry to tell you, I do need you to punch out.
Good job, Freight Train.

PATRICK: It hurts in the heart, because
I've heard his story, and I know
how much this means to him,
and he really could use this money.
I would rather give somebody an opportunity than me,

Good night, everybody. Good day.
-See you tomorrow. -Good night. -Good night, Phil.
Get some rest.
