Shatner: Previously...
- Oh! - Oh, god.
You wanna transition, you have your own category.
Lance and I, we do not mesh at all.
I've pissed off way too many people.
Adam: Emergency, emergency!
We have four new people coming to mars.
They have to be top tier from the beginning.
- How's it going? - Andy richter. How are you?
- Adam: Cat cora! - Aah!
I'm from the "bachelor" franchise. I need the drama.
He was trying to eliminate ariel.
Well, she was kind of firm in there.
Wow. Okay, like, you just got here.
Tonight...
I'm not living in this hab another day with certain people.
Are you ( bleep ) kidding me?
Computer: Emergency. Hab breach.
Your oxygen levels are plummeting rapidly.
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Okay, plug, plug, plug.
( screaming )
It was definitely harder than it looked, man.
Welcome to mars, bitches.
This is "stars on mars."
Computer: Mars crew, your food and drink supplies are now replenished,
But with four new crew members, you must ration them wisely.
You started on your wine yet?
There's cold wine? Or is that red?
- This is red. - Oh, okay.
- Ooh, look at our alcohol. - I know. Wait.
Get a bottle. Which bottle?
Porsha: So when it comes to the new people,
At this point I love all of y'all,
'cause y'all brought us some food.
We have buffalo wings. We have pizza.
We have every, every single thing you need.
- Ooh, rosé? - Rosé?
- Rosé all day! - I don't even drink,
But I might have to get some of that.
Ronda: So, andy, do you write?
Well, for years on the conan show,
- I wrote sketches and stuff. - That's why I know you from,
- Is conan! - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- I've been on conan a couple of times. - I know.
It was the first talk show to ever have me on it.
I remember.
My name is andy richter. It's sol day nine.
Cat and ashley and paul and I
Are trying to integrate ourselves into a group of people
Who are already--
Well, they've been living together for nine sols.
So where did you fly in from?
I lived in l.A. For 5 1/2 years,
But I moved rhode island two years ago with my husband.
I have to say that I was a little starstruck
When I saw marshawn lynch with his gold teeth shining.
Then it's ronda rousey and lance armstrong.
It's pretty iconic.
I don't know yet what I bring to this team,
But hopefully I find out soon and I can deliver.
Porsha, your butt is the best I've ever seen in my life.
Oh! Well, thank you!
It's a beautiful, beautiful ass.
- It's a mars butt. - At least--
- Thank god she said it. - It's a mars butt.
- It was okay before I got here. - It was a mars butt.
But since I've been here, we work out every single day.
Even when we don't work out, the missions are our workout.
I ain't ready, I ain't ready, I ain't ready.
I'm already tired. I'm the oldest here.
- No, you're not. - No, you're not.
- Stop that. - How old is lance?
- Lance is, like, 78. - Lance is 70.
I'm blending right in,
You know what I'm saying?
This is gonna work out.
This is gonna work, I'm telling you.
- Where you been all this time? - I was just in there.
- Oh, in your little room? - Yeah.
Oh, get ready to give that up.
We're about to choose another one.
- I know. - The base commander,
They get their own suite, own shower,
- Like, all private space. - Oh, that's lit.
Should I put the wine in here to start aerating?
- Sure. - Does it happen immediately,
Or are we supposed to wait a certain amount of time?
Maybe, like, ten minutes.
Coming in the experiment halfway through
I think gives me an advantage.
I'm coming in fresh, I'm coming in as a chef,
And that's really cool, to have a skill
That you can really bring to the hab that's really valuable.
Hi.
Tomorrow night-- we're doing the things tomorrow.
- All right. - I'm gonna cook.
Oh, we can have sausage. Here, I'll get this.
I hate the casing. Is that weird?
- No, it's not. - Oh, okay.
I'm just doing it for everyone.
Why are you taking the skin off?
I just talked to the iron chef,
And she said she also doesn't like the casing.
She'd take it off? Okay, yeah.
So I was like, all right, I'm not weird.
Let me see. I think I like the casing.
- Actually, no, I don't. - Exactly.
You know what this feels like? A nice little cocktail hour.
Everybody's mingling, getting to know each other,
But I don't think they really realize
We live together now.
It's about to get crazy real soon.
How are you doing on this thing? Are you okay? Are you--
- Yeah, yes. - Yeah, yeah.
It's-- it had been okay.
Uh-huh. Were, uh,
Tension' starting to wear down, and people--
We just got onto a controversial subject
That I feel pretty passionately about.
Oh, really?
- What was it? Uh... - Trans in sport.
Andy: Oh.
It got heated?
( bleep )
I mean, it was about to come to blows.
- It was-- that was terrible. - Oh, wow.
- So-- - ( alarm blaring )
- Ain't that a bitch. - ( screams )
This means emergency!
New people! New people! This means emergency.
Cat: When I first heard the emergency sirens,
I started sweating.
I'm like, "oh, my god. This can't be happening."
Where are we going? Where do we go for the emergency?
The sirens and all the red lights,
Everybody seems relatively calm.
I'm like, "guys, what's going on?"
- I like them tights on you. - Thank you.
Like, you kinda thick.
I actually am in a doja cat song.
Porsha: No way. What song?
Andy: It's called ( bleep ),
And there is a rhyme, "thicker than andy richter."
- No! - Yeah.
And I just called you thick.
Computer: It's time to choose a new base commander.
Ah, that moment of truth.
I'm already nervous 'cause I don't know what's going on.
I don't know what's about to happen,
And then all of a sudden, everybody got serious.
How's everybody's bodies feeling?
- Lance the oldest, man. - I'm not anymore. Andy's the oldest.
- No, I'm the oldest. - Thank god.
- Well, you just got here. - Yeah, but come on,
That's the kind of fresh blood that we need.
- You want be the leader? - To lead us?
Porsha: The base commander is the leader
Overall on missions.
Andy, you just got here.
You want to be in charge of all this?
- Nope. - Yeah, yeah, the guy that doesn't know
- What the ( bleep ) is going on. - No, no, no, no.
- Nah. - No, no, no, no.
- Andy: Yeah! - You need to know this is the real deal.
- Lance: Yeah. - But I thought it would be fun to be base commander,
But that lasted a very short amount of time.
- I vote lance. - Okay, why do you think he should be base commander?
Every mission that we done had
He has been the first or second name
Called through the doors.
I could see that. Okay, okay.
I agree.
I think lance should be base commander.
I don't know, I just feel like you would be good.
I'll do whatever. I'll do whatever you guys think.
Lance: Ideally, I don't want to do this,
But there are certain people, without naming names,
That I don't ever want to be base commander.
I mean, I've made it known I think ariel is awesome,
And she thrives in logistics.
Yeah, you haven't been the base commander yet.
She hasn't been the base commander.
She's been so tantalizing.
She's like the leonardo dicaprio of base commanders.
I vote ariel, too. I mean, she's whipping everybody into shape,
And when you're out there it needs to be sharp,
- It needs to be-- - so that's the problem.
A lot of people don't be feeling that kind of ( bleep ) though.
I didn't understand what was happening.
Okay, nobody seemed to have a problem with it before,
- So what's the problem? - But they did though.
Okay, who? Lance? Lance and I have a problem, but that's it.
- It's just between us. - Well, if that's the case and it's a problem,
Then probably neither one of y'all should be base commander
Because while we out there and if you got problems
Then that's just not good for the team.
I was incredibly shocked.
I was incredibly hurt. I was incredibly embarrassed.
Because we just met these new people.
They literally just got here.
All I care about is the mission being successful. That's it.
You didn't even ask me how I would do it at all.
You literally just...
- 'cause it's not about how you would do it. - It is, though.
Cat: I felt like I came in here in the middle of this.
There were already alliances and cliques formed in the hab.
Should we do a vote?
Let's write on a piece of paper.
We've been doing it that way this whole time.
That's fine.
Paul: I voted for lance
'cause I felt like he had more of a steady approach.
Ariel was a little more emotional,
And he didn't raise his voice or pout or anything.
I just felt comfortable with him.
All right, okay.
Guys, can I have your attention?
The base commander is...
Ariel.
- Ariel! Ariel! Ariel! - Thanks, guys.
- Naw, hell, nah. - Ariel!
- Come on! - Did we forget the fact that lance and ariel
- Have an issue with each other? - They don't.
- But-- - naw, but they do.
- They've sorted it. - If you got bad blood with somebody,
And it comes down to you have the final decision
If somebody is behind that door, and you don't--
I don't have the final decision.
- It's a vote. - It literally goes to the--
But you also have a lot of say-so in that vote on what's going on.
- There's a lot of people-- - and just because of the simple fact
That you do have bad blood towards somebody...
It has never been that way.
I absolutely had my integrity questioned.
I have been quite possibly, and I'm proud to say this,
One of the most honest and fair people in this house, truly.
I feel that they both either need to be in the field
Or they need to be in here together.
No, no, no. You know what? No.
This is honestly a little bit ridiculous.
But see, that would show why you wouldn't be in position to be a base commander.
Marshawn, are you kidding me? You've gotta be kidding me.
- I'm not kidding. - I've waited all this time to be base commander.
I've been mission specialist twice.
I know, so you've been safe twice.
Ashley: I'm like, as long as I'm not part of it,
I'll sit back and watch with my popcorn.
Bring it on.
I think we need to discuss this.
I don't think you should walk out on it.
I'm a little bit upset.
It's a little hurtful that this is what my vote is.
I've been waiting so long to be base commander. So long.
It was a yes. Even the new people,
It was pretty majority yes.
And so I was blown away
That marshawn would contest that.
And for that to be questioned
Because of lance was like-- made me sick.
Ariel, let me make this really simple.
I don't need the drama.
I've busted my ass for nine days.
I'm gonna bust my ass on the tenth day,
And I'm going to auto-select myself to leave.
We've got four new great people.
What did you say? You said-- to leave where?
- To leave. Yes. - To leave mars?
Naw, I don't like that. Why are you--
- What are you talking about? - No, no, no, no, no.
That's not even fair to the team
For you to say, "oh, I'm gonna opt out."
You have all these new great people.
- It's gonna be fine. - Nobody's giving up.
I'm tired of people giving up because it's really making the experience not fun.
I thought we were having fun because I thought everybody
Who was here now wanted to actually be here.
But I'm giving you an option of--
We don't want your option. It's fine.
- We're gonna finish today... - Well, guess what?
...And we'll handle it tomorrow when tomorrow comes.
I'm not living in this hab another day with certain people.
Cat: What have I gotten myself into here?
This is crazy.
Porsha: You said-- you said to leave where?
- Lance: To leave. Yeah. - The mission?
- To leave mars? - I'm not living in this hab
Another day with certain people.
So I will auto-select myself out of here, I promise.
( indistinct chatter )
- No, no, no, no. - Don't run away. Don't run away.
I'm not running away.
I'm just like, this is a little bit ridiculous.
- Come here. - This is just a little bit ridiculous.
- Can I talk you? - I mean, about what?
About the issue I have with lance?
- I'm out. - Paul: Let me have a drink with you then.
- Tonight. - We'll have a few drinks.
Yeah, go have a drink. Thank you.
We'll go bust our ass tomorrow and I'll be back home to aspen.
See, you already got the name of the game.
We don't see eye to eye on a human rights issue, that's it.
So I don't understand how that plays here.
Multiple people disagree with lance.
Multiple, multiple.
Tinashe, adam. Multiple people.
I'm just the only one that decided to tell him how I felt.
( background chatter continues )
The point is that ariel and lance don't see eye to eye,
So I don't feel that neither one of them
Should be in a position to be base commander.
- I don't feel bad about that. - There's nothing for her to feel bad about.
- I just think that-- - no, I'm saying I don't feel bad about giving ten days
And busting my ass, and then saying,
"we got four new people. This'll be great. You're good."
Okay.
- No, I don't agree. - Well...
It's been super chill this whole time.
I don't where this all came from,
And I'm super embarrassed for us.
- Eh, what are you gonna do? - Yeah.
I care that the mission is successful,
Not that lance fails.
I honestly feel pretty betrayed by marshawn.
I'm not gonna lie. I was pretty devastated.
( crying )
It seems as if ariel is struggling.
There were tensions between ariel and lance,
And I know it's not settled and I don't think it'll ever be settled,
But she's a little down because of it.
- That was fun. - Oh, it's crazy.
I was like, man, I don't care, just somebody do it.
It was sort of shocking, you know,
And I just feel like, you know, when you're a team,
You gotta talk that type of stuff out.
I had no idea any of that was gonna happen.
- Surely not. - This is my thing though.
Like, if there's an issue,
I feel like you're supposed to stay together.
Don't roll your eyes.
Let's listen, let's talk,
And that's what a leader does.
- Mm-hmm. - And I told lance,
"I don't like the way you handled that either.
You just ready to quit."
Tinashe: I think the fact there were new people
Created a little more pressure in the situation
Of us discussing things.
- I just think it's whack-a-doodle. - Right.
- And you're gonna stand there and say... - Mm-hmm.
..."I don't wanna be here."
That part really got on my nerves.
Yeah, I feel that. I agree.
Paul: Good morning, everybody.
Andy: Good morning.
Paul: Hey, ai, what's the score of the celtics game,
Since you know everything?
Computer: Celtics are down 52 to 48.
They could really use the truth.
( laughs )
- Both: Good morning. - ( indistinct chatter )
Ariel: There have been a lot of times in my life
That I have had to be very brave.
I fight really hard for what I believe in.
I fight really hard for what is fair.
- Uh-huh. - ( alarm blaring )
Computer: Attention, crew,
Please proceed to the command center.
I've been waiting so long to finally be base commander.
Like, I earned that.
Porsha: Come on, guys! Come on, everybody!
I have to stand up for this.
This announcement will not be long, so...
Last night was a really tough,
Confusing, I'm sure for the new people,
Kind of strange meeting.
Um, but I have tried to be as fair as possible,
As truthful as possible.
I am not changing that just because I may
Or may not have had an argument with somebody.
I want this team to succeed. That's what I care about.
So I am going to be base commander.
( bleep )
It's how it's going to be done. It's how it will be done.
If marshawn doesn't like it, I don't care at all.
You don't have to be concerned
That I'm going to put you in the bottom
Because I don't like you or don't like what you said.
Paul: It didn't really start off
On a good note with ariel,
And I thought she came off kind of firm and aggressive.
I don't got time for that.
That's what the announcement is.
- Thanks, commander! - Copy.
Porsha: This woman has the eye of the tiger.
Who runs mars? Girls do.
Shatner: Coming up...
Ariel: Meteor strike imminent!
( screaming )
Ariel: Save us!
Plug, plug, plug. Go ahead.
- We are going to die. - Welcome to mars, bitches.
( music playing )
Guys, I've decided to change my mind.
What are you changing your mind to?
Well, I had a good sleep and a good workout,
So I decided to not tap out.
Look, ariel and I just have very different styles.
I did want to leave,
But, you know,
Maybe I'm not giving people enough credit.
I mean, everybody's different.
Some people hold grudges and--
But I'll stick it out.
Well, there you go.
- ( alarm blaring ) - computer: Emergency. Inbound meteor shower.
Emergency. Inbound meteor shower.
Adam: Emergency!
Emergency. Hab breach.
- Emergency. Hab breach. - Andy: Emergency.
Attention, crew. We have an emergency.
A meteorite shower has punctured the walls of the hab,
Creating a large number of tiny holes.
Your oxygen levels are plummeting rapidly.
Oxygen, for anyone who is not familiar with oxygen,
Very important.
You'll need to work together quickly
To plug those holes until the hab can be fixed.
This mission will test your endurance
And will earn you a mission patch.
I'm downloading all of the information for your base commander now.
They're in charge, and we'll determine later
Who was mission critical
And who is not.
Unless you fail.
Then they're up for possible extraction
From the simulation as well.
Commander, pick your mission specialist.
They will be safe inside with you.
Good luck, and remember,
If you run into any issues at all,
Do not hesitate to panic.
Shatner out.
- "shatner out." - "shatner out!"
Did he say do not hesitate to panic?
- Yeah. He did, he did. - ( overlapping chatter )
- He did say to panic. - He said that.
- All right. - All right, well,
My mission specialist is right in her seat already.
- Tinashe: Thank you. - I knew exactly who I wanted as my mission specialist.
Tinashe and I have been a team before,
And work really, really well together.
There was no other option in my mind.
Tinashe: I'm pretty excited that I was chosen to be the mission specialist.
We were a great team the first time around,
And I'm actually really happy that I'm safe from elimination.
All right, ready, team? Let's get it!
Here we go! Here we go, girls!
- Computer: All crew, prepare for deployment. - Okay.
Oxygen levels decreasing.
Ashley: I'm definitely nervous for my first mission,
Mainly because I have no idea what it's gonna entail,
How hard it's gonna be on my body.
I'm ready for some space ( bleep ) now.
Okay, guys, so our oxygen supply is depleting.
We are going to die, and need to patch the tiny holes.
- All right, ready, team? - All right, let's go.
- I'm an expert in little holes. - ( overlapping chatter )
- ( cheering ) - save our lives!
Computer: In this simulation,
A meteorite shower has reached the hab,
Causing an oxygen leak.
There are now 13 holes in the walls of the hab.
Seven crewmembers must use their bodies to plug the holes.
The other two crewmembers must make rubber plugs,
Then fix them into the holes permanently.
- All right, let's go. - Let's do it. Let's do it.
- Let's go, let's go, let's go! - Adam: All right, let's go.
Paul: Don't fall, y'all. Watch your step.
Patch it, and you patch it, and you patch.
- Little holes! - Look at the meteorites.
Seems like we always have an emergency here, which...
( screaming )
The pressure! The pressure!
...Can we just have a day of peace?
Five minutes until hab oxygen loss simulation begins.
You will have two hours until total oxygen loss.
Ariel: Okay, team, everybody who is in the plug crew
Are marshawn, porsha,
Lance, ashley, andy,
Ronda, and paul.
So just find your holes.
Tinashe: If it's a big hole, use your head.
Use whatever it takes to plug these holes.
Two, three, four, five, six...
We're missing one hole. I only count 12 holes.
12? I think there's one up top on that thing over there.
It has to be. Oh, there it is. That one.
Up high, somebody has to stand on something.
I'm gonna do the rover.
Hey, lance, over here. Come close.
Yeah, close, close, close, close.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Paul: You going up top? - Mm-hmm.
You're tall enough maybe to put your helmet
- And two hands here. - Oh, yeah, yeah. I'll do that.
That way you can hit three.
Ronda, she was the one that pointed me to the face hole
That she was too short to get into.
And then there were two on either side.
Plug, plug, plug. It is timed. Plug.
Okay, plug, plug, plug! Go ahead.
Ariel: Plug the holes. Let's go.
I have such an easy position.
The hole was near the ground, and I could lie down
Literally using my backpack
As a lounging device,
And just keep the finger in there.
Tinashe: Your two hours starts now.
Two hours?
Keep your fingers in the holes.
We need to keep these plugged up.
Endurance can mean a lot of things.
It can mean how long can you run?
How far can you go?
But it also means how long can you stand in place
With your fingers like this?
Harder than it looks.
Computer: A meteorite shower has breached the hab
- Causing an oxygen leak. - Plug, plug, plug.
Okay, plug, plug, plug! Go ahead.
Seven crewmembers must use their bodies to plug 13 holes.
- Ariel: Cat and adam? - Copy.
Go to the supply dome.
Cat: Okay, we're at the supply dome.
Computer: Mix crew, you must create three batches
Of four small plugs, plus one large plug.
Mix crew, you need to add equal parts
Of a solution and b solution.
- We have it. A and b. - Mix crew, copy.
Cat and adam will be doing the mixing
And crafting of the molds.
Cat: Pour slowly.
- Oops. - Not trying to lose anymore.
- Got it. - Got it.
- You wanna take over? - Yeah.
Got it. Just like being in the kitchen.
Exactly it.
Okay. Stop.
Tinashe: Timer has started on the curing.
It'll take 30 minutes to cure.
Once the cure is complete,
You're gonna use the plugs to plug 'em up basically like an earplug.
If you have to roll it, if you have to squish it to get it in the holes...
- Got it. - Ariel: And then we have to do it two more times.
- The 13th hole is your hole, andy. - Okay.
Cat: Whoo! That's science right there.
Ariel: Ashley on the ground with her finger just in there
Is literally killing me. That is so amazing.
- Good for her. - She looks amazing.
Tinashe: I love that for her.
Ashley: I don't know if I do deserve an endurance patch
Because I was basically taking a nap.
( music box playing )
Everybody else was getting their arms so tired
Having to hold them up for half an hour at a time like this.
This is making my arms hurt already.
They've been up for about ten seconds.
Lance: Ashley, I wish you would've taken these.
I unfortunately got stuck standing in front of two holes
That were not anywhere near each other.
( bleep )
And then, you know, some folks were like this.
They're like this.
And I was like, "how did I get this one? This sucks."
Hey, shawn, how you doing, man? I ain't heard nothing from you.
I'm solid, buddy.
Boy, I got the best balance ever.
I'm just trying not to fall off this rover though.
If I fall, it's over.
( grunting )
It was definitely harder than it looked, man,
Because you think you just filling a hole with your fingers,
But the next thing you know, your shoulders start hurting.
This is normal for me.
We hold up our hands up this long in baptist churches, so...
( laughing )
Here's how to praise jesus.
♪ hallelujah!
18 minutes. 18 minutes on the plugs.
Tinashe, was that real time or was that an approximate?
- We're at 17:39. - Keep the time.
Copy. He wants time checks.
It's like, dude, nobody else wants time checks.
Adam: All right, we're ready.
- Ariel: Ten seconds for plugs. - Perfect.
Oh, yeah, we're ready to celebrate.
All right, team! All right, team! Boom!
Ariel: Three, two...
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go!
Marshawn, we're on the way.
Go ahead and unplug.
Adam: Right here, man.
- Cat? - Yeah?
Perfect.
Nine.
- Adam: That's good, cat. - All right, good.
- Porsha? - Yes?
- I see you. - Okay.
Behind you. Watch out.
- Watch out. - Cat?
All right, ready?
What's next?
Ronda: This one's leaking a little bit, guys.
Ronda, which one?
One, two, three, go.
Adam: I got it. All right, great.
Hit it, cat.
( groans )
Ronda: They came and plugged the hole.
I was so unreasonably excited.
( laughing )
Computer: Four holes repaired.
Nine remaining.
We have to do this whole process two more times
After we plug four holes.
Oh, so another solution gonna
Take another 30 minutes then?
Welcome to mars, bitches.
( laughs )
All right, let's do it again.
13, 14, 15.
All right, molds are curing.
Good job.
New timer is now 30 more minutes.
( sighs )
Oh, wow, another 30 minutes.
( bleep ) that.
( groans )
Standing there plugging holes in that suit
Was incredibly difficult.
( groaning )
I felt like I had to come up with something
To distract them and keep them entertained.
What is the stupidest thing
You've ever heard about yourself?
Those, like, celebrity worth--
You know, like what they're worth?
Like, mine says $10 million.
And that's not true.
That's funny.
If I had $10 million, would I have my face in a hole?
The craziest thing I've ever heard about myself is that I'm straight.
( laughter )
What is the thing we hate the most about mars?
- All: Food! - The food.
So I was in vegas for my friend's 21st birthday.
You know, we hired some strippers for him...
Like, ariel, you talk too much ( bleeping ).
Ariel: I don't really know how to hire strippers, you know?
It's hard for me to stand still, and so the only way
That I was thinking I could get through it
Is just to close my eyes and just be as still
And as quiet as possible. Of course...
What is everyone's favorite song?
...Ariel cannot be quiet.
If you never got into the profession...
It was just constant. Like, these jokes and these gags and this stuff.
And I'm just like, "oh, my god."
We have an hour and six minutes before we lose oxygen.
Again, you guys are doing amazing.
( bleeping )
I'm too old.
Andy and paul, how are you doing?
Mm. My hand's getting numb. Kind of, like, dead, you know?
Tingling like they're asleep.
Oh, gosh, this is so hard.
- ( sighs ) - paul, how are you doing?
Hey, um...
I haven't heard from you. Are you okay?
It's hurting.
Paul: It's stressful, it's difficult.
I'm not sure how much more I can go. It's draining.
Oh, my gosh. That's so hard.
Oh, man.
Computer: Habitat oxygen levels are down to 44%.
Only 45 minutes of breathable air remain.
4 of 13 holes have been plugged.
Let's plug these holes!
Lance, we're on you.
- You got it? - Cat?
- Yeah? - Squirt that ( bleep ).
( groans )
Whoo!
- Easy. - Truly.
- Ready? Hit it, cat. - Okay.
- I'm here. - There you go, buddy.
- Thank you. - Shake it good.
Paul: Once my hole got covered up,
My job after that was to go see who needed some relief.
Y'all wanna split this up with her?
Five, five, five, five?
Computer: Eight holes repaired. Five remaining.
- Cat: Okay. We're curing now. - Adam: We're curing.
We only have 30 minutes left. Everyone, stay strong.
Oh, yeah. This is the way.
- Oh. - Ariel: Ronda.
These people are so unserious.
( sighs )
Why do this? To torture us?
Andy: My hands were getting numb.
I felt like my hands were falling asleep.
There should be a silver bowl
In your dome on your supply rack.
Adam: Got it. Copy.
Ariel: Go to andy's hole, fill the hole with the bowl,
- And then seal it. - Got it.
All right, cat, we're ready for the last spray.
Computer: Five holes remain. Total oxygen loss imminent.
Three, two, one. Okay, final plugs, let's go!
- Ariel: Plug the holes! - Let's plug.
- Cat: Ready? - That's one.
- Cat: Okay. - Let's go, cat.
Ashley, great.
Andy, are you ready to move your big head?
Yep.
Base commander, it looks like every hole is patched.
Computer: Hab pressure normalizing. Oxygen restored.
- Whoo! You guys were successful! - Yes!
- Congratulations, you are done. - ( all cheering )
You know, it was a good team effort, man,
But it was definitely enduring.
- That was good. That was good. - Great job, cat.
- An honor to be in the kitchen with you. - Oh, yes.
All right, everybody, get inside the airlock,
And we will bring you back in.
Ariel, we know how I stand on the personality,
So that makes me nervous.
But if we just talk about the mission,
I certainly felt like I did everything I was asked to do.
I feel like I always do.
And so if she decides that I was not mission critical,
Then this is personal.
Hey!
Computer: Incoming message from mission control.
Way to go, crew! A successful mission.
Base commander, with dwindling rations,
A difficult decision must be made.
Who will be extracted?
Transmission over.
- Ariel: All right. - This is hard to pick bottom.
To figure out who might go home sucks.
Tinashe: Ronda is a question mark.
She wasn't the strongest person today.
- That's my opinion. - Ariel: I'd agree.
Lance, to me, he's the last person
That I would personally want to save.
I cannot stand lance, but it would be really hard
For me to justify sending lance home
If it wasn't a personal decision.
If we put him in the bottom three here,
It's literally going to be what they said last night
About me being base commander.
I am always good at making decisions myself,
But, um, this one has been particularly difficult.
Okay, figured it out.
- Ariel: Welcome back, guys! - Tinashe: Hey!
Well, you guys all did so amazing.
This decision is incredibly hard.
I'm going to welcome the first person in.
This person absolutely killed it.
Cat, welcome in.
Porsha: All right, good job, cat.
- Wow. - All: Yay!
- Congratulations! - Whoo!
- Yeah. - ( laughs )
Computer: Endurance patch acquired.
To come back and have a success and to get my first patch,
It felt really amazing.
So the next person, he's killing it,
- Adam! Welcome in! - ( cheering )
Mish crit!
Lance: As we were sitting in the airlock,
As the numbers start going down,
This was very frustrating.
Porsha, welcome in.
- Andy, come on in. - All right!
I get to eat dinner.
It really felt like losing. I hate that.
- ( screams ) - ( laughs )
Okay, this next person
Has always been mission critical...
...And was mission critical again today,
So welcome in, lance.
Lance: For the most part,
I thought she was very fair to me.
Whatever the differences are, she put that aside.
Whoo-hoo!
Ariel: As much as I do not like lance,
Ultimately, I could not put him in the bottom three
Because what we are looking for
Is people who are mission critical.
He did his job, he did it well,
So he was saved.
All right, my boy, I'll catch you back home.
Marshawn: After the tension between ariel and myself,
I believe ariel is putting me in the bottom three.
So this last person sometimes drives us
A little bit crazy.
Welcome in, marshawn! Welcome back. We love you.
Mish crit.
Whoo-hoo!
Paul: I was shell-shocked being in the bottom three.
It seems like social relationships can play a factor
On an elimination process.
I'm definitely like how am I here?
Ashley: This experience is not yet fulfilled.
I need to stick around a little bit longer.
Ronda: Being left in the bottom three for elimination,
It's the first time I'm like,
"oh, ( bleep ), I might be going home today."
But I'm not ready for it.
Ariel: Ronda, ashley, paul, now it's time we decide.
Computer: Enter the decontamination zone.
And you will each get a chance to tell us
- Why your mission critical. - ( sighs )
Getting in front of those doors really made me feel like
I wanted to be here and to continue to prove to myself
That I am strong, powerful, and capable of living on mars
With the rest of these professional athletes.
Okay, we will start with you, ashley.
Well, guys, while I had probably the easiest task
Because my finger hole was so low to the ground
And I got to kind of lounge,
I kept that finger in the hole the entire hour and a half.
That is important.
And for ingenuity, she used the backpack as a chaise lounge.
Right.
( tropical music playing )
Okay, ronda, please tell us why you're mission critical.
Uh, you guys know I really miss my baby.
When I first got here, I was like,
"get me out of here asap."
As I got to know all of you guys,
We all became this weird little martian family together.
I can't leave you guys yet, and I really can't miss cat's dinner tonight.
( laughter )
We want ronda. We've always wanted ronda.
But out of everybody in the mission,
She hasn't particularly excelled
A way a lot of people have excelled.
Now, paul, please tell us why you are mission critical.
I think I fit well with the group.
I was able to show a sample of that today.
You know, once my mission was done,
You know, I was able to move on to the next and help other people.
Now, paul, yesterday he came in here with a little bit of, like--
The vibe was not as positive.
How was his vibe not positive? What happened?
When he came in here, he right away was like,
"if I think somebody should go, it should be ariel."
That was coming in a little hot.
I thought we was taking the personal ( bleep ) out of this.
Ariel, your personal feelings involved in decision making doesn't work.
You should be more about performance.
So if we're going off of his performance today, he was on a jeep,
Held his arm in the air for 60 minutes.
She was sitting on the ground with her finger like this.
So if we're going off of performance,
- How do you justify that? - That's true.
I think we know now. We all are in agreement.
- Yes. - We all agree, yes?
- Yes. - Okay, thank you.
All right, I am so excited to press this button.
Come on in...
- Ronda, we love you! - Yeah!
( cheering )
You are so mission...
- Welcome back! - Welcome back.
- I'll be right back. - Okay.
Now, you guys are both fantastic,
But the choice of who was mission critical today...
...Is paul.
( cheers and applause )
I'm back with the team,
And I can sleep another night.
- ( cheering ) - aw, thank you, guys.
Computer: Ashley, you are not mission critical
And must leave the hab immediately.
- Bye. - Ariel: Ashley, I'm so sorry.
- I'm sorry, girl. - Thanks for coming to mars.
Bye!
- Tell earth we said hello. - Bye, sweetie.
- Bye! - Ashley: I gotta go back to paradise.
I'm disappointed that I got eliminated so early.
I'm not the most athletic or the best problem solver,
But I think I expected more from myself.
Well, I'm glad you stayed because we about to eat
- And we about to drink. - I know, I know.
Let's get those mushrooms nice and smoky and nutty.
- Yes, chef! - Yes, chef!
Ariel: It's funny. I've literally been playing poker for so many years,
But I've never learned any other poker aside from texas hold 'em.
She's good. She's good at-- she can play some cards.
That's the only nice thing I'm saying for the rest of the night about ariel.
( andy laughs )
The rest will be ( bleep )-stirring nonsense.
We need to put that stuff behind us.
We have missions to do.
And also, I mean, come on, who cares?
He's literally been so rude to my face since we--
Like, literally since we got back.
- Like, to my face. - He's such a baby.
Andy: My strategy is that I'll be base commander.
Yeah, I'll probably, like, pit them against each other...
It was really ( bleep ) awkward.
...Let them die.
That's when they will find out that I am a monster.
( laughs maniacally )
Shatner: Next time on "stars on mars"...
Emergency!
The hab ai has been infected with a virus.
We're members. Let us in!
( screaming )
Computer: You are all going to d-d-die.
A-ha ha ha ha ha ha.
It is a little scary and unnerving.
It's locked.
We have 11 seconds left.
- Hey, you okay? - ( groans )
I think when you piss off cat cora...
- I think it's ( bleep ). - ...She stays pissed off.
I don't think is this gonna be a smooth ending here.
