(WIND BLOWING)
JAI: Previously,
14 Aussies answered the call...
My whole childhood, I have been benched from doing hard things.
(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)
..on a monster of a mountain...
Oh! Oh, my gosh!
Oh, no!
..with only 15 days to haul a million dollars to the top.
Now, only ten remain.
I've got a nickname called the Godfather
because I'm pulling the strings.
JAI: Then a terrifying tightrope...
Hold it! Hold on!
..left the group battered and broken...
..sending Sharksey into madness.
Sharkey!
..quitting the game with his $53,000 share of the prize pool gone,
and it gets worse,
because little do they know, a chaser is on the hunt.
Go get 'em, bloodhound.
Season one's most capable hiker is on a mission
to steal one hiker's cash and their place on the mountain.
I am here to get that money.
I do not care who gets sent off this mountain to make that happen.
JAI: Tonight...
MAT: Let's play, baby. Let's play.
JAI: It's a battle for control...
(LAUGHTER) LOCHIE: Mat is pulling the strings.
They're just getting played.
..when dairy farmer, Lochie...
The sooner I get Mattie boy off,
the better for me and the better for everyone.
I want Mat gone because I just can't trust him.
..takes on sporting legend, Mat.
Can I go and listen from the outside of the tent?
MAT: I'm the king of the mountain.
I get the information and decide who leaves.
You've done this before, haven't you?
Come on! Oh, no!
JAI: And...
It's the mountain's keeper!
..the mountain's keeper has a little friend...
Oh, man. This is bad.
..and they're about to rain down hell on you guys.
I'm scared!
JAI: It's double the mountain's keepers.
Oh! Go, Lympi!
..and double the twists...
MAT: This could change everything.
..as the game gets turned on its head.
It's dropping a bag!
There's two!
Oh, what?
Go! Go, go, go!
Go, Lochie!
(OMINOUS SOUNDTRACK)
(UPLIFTING SOUNDTRACK SWELLS)
My back.
I don't know how much my back can handle this stuff.
Oh, don't zoom in too close.
It's horrendous. You don't want to scare the viewers.
Warming up the lanolin
and then mashing it into our sunburnt and wind-burnt faces.
In our crusty, aged faces.
(CHUCKLES)
Waking up today, I just feel horrible.
That last 24 hours for me was by far the worst.
How are you feeling?
Oh, yeah.
I don't know.
I just P my head is just...
My shoulder is killing me
and even though I didn't go into a full-blown panic attack,
it's right there, it's on the edge.
I feel exhausted.
(LAUGHS)
So, right now, it's pretty dire for me
because the people that have gone before me
are the slowest, the injured, and I'm now both.
I'm definitely vulnerable.
How's that?
I'll cover it up.
It's like it had its own pulse when I was laying in bed last night.
Yeah. Throbbing. Oh, it was just throbbing.
There is no doubt that this has been super tough the last few days.
Physically, mentally, emotionally, it takes it out of you.
Paranoia.
If it doesn't run through you in this game, then...
Well, look at Sharksey.
Yeah.
I think he just went into his own mind about doubt
and worried about things that really shouldn't be worried about.
Sharksey was a big part of my plan.
I'm devastated he's not here, so I've just got to reassess now.
But I love games.
I'm a former professional rugby league and rugby union player
and that competitive drive that I had, it's still inside me.
I played 'Survivor', I played twice.
They didn't call me The Godfather for nothing.
I played the game hard and fair.
I was a bit of a leader, making things happen,
so I've come really close to winning.
But I've never won.
So, I want to win.
Like, that's the bottom line.
I just want to win.
So, I want to make sure
that I'm building those relationships in the early days,
so when I need them, I can call on them.
I need aces in my deck.
Enjoy it. Like, look, the sun's about to come out.
(CHUCKLES)
(LAUGHS)
I've started to realise
Mat has become a bit of a leader amongst the group.
He's playing a really strategic game and he's also quite social.
He knows how to work people to his advantage.
Oh, thank you.
Mat's got way too much power for one person.
We've got to play the game now.
Yeah. ..and it's gonna take some...
It will take some wily navigating.
I want to be at the top with you, mate.
Yeah. Do you know what I mean?
Let's do it. Let's do it, baby.
Mat the rat needs to get down from that pedestal
and roll off home down the mountain.
(LAUGHTER)
And I'm the right person to knock him off.
If I had an animal spirit,
it would probably be a Tasmanian devil.
Highly chaotic, high-energy, and always on the move.
(DOG BARKS)
(WHISTLE)
I'm a dairy farmer from Tasmania.
Beautiful little country town around Deloraine.
It's a tough lifestyle.
But not just a farmer.
I'm also a local government councillor.
The whole role is to be talking to the community,
understanding their needs and then solving them.
I like to think I've got the gift of the gab.
So, I need to convince my friendship circles
that Mat the rat might be better served
on the bottom of the mountain.
(WHISPERING)
JAI: Fractures within the group are never good,
but especially not at a time like this.
Because yesterday, a chaser was released.
Sam was the most capable player from season one.
He'll tell you so himself.
He's already made up a hell of a lot of ground.
So much so, that he's managed to fit in a morning dip.
Any excuse to get your gear off, hey, Sam?
The group needs to get cracking.
So far, they've only made it 65 km.
They still have 117 km left to reach the summit,
and behind them is the chaser.
He's travelled through the night and is now only 20 km away.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
So, it's time for this lot to band together and get moving.
Jai's here.
Oh! Really?
Where did you just come from?
Where did you come from, dude? Oh, what?
Sneaky, isn't he?
This is not good. He does not look happy.
Gather round. Oh, shit.
Oh, Jesus.
Oh, righto.
Oh, my heart is beating so fast.
I'm not dressed for you, Jai.
(CHUCKLES)
Surprise attack.
Righto, guys.
I've been watching.
Sort of looks like this mountain's put you through the ringer.
It's taken its toll.
Yeah. Certainly appears so.
Look, this mountain's going to push you beyond your limits, right?
Physically, for sure.
But it's what you let happen up here that could break you,
as we've seen.
You need to reach inside yourselves, you know?
But if you draw on the reason why you're here,
you will get through it.
Why are you here?
So many reasons.
I've already conquered one of them, to find a part of myself.
How did you lose yourself?
Oh...
You just concentrate on your kids 'cause they're your life...
..and then you forget about you.
Mum!
(INDISTINCT CONVERSATION)
Here I am though. Here I am.
Yeah. Yeah. Good on you, Tiff.
Boss. With my friends!
And adult friends, not kid friends.
(LAUGHTER)
We love you.
Well, all six of your kids will be super proud, no doubt.
How about you, Simmone?
I'm here for my son.
Awesome.
Here for me.
Last couple of years have been hard.
Two years of financial strife is really, really intense.
Yeah.
Taylor?
Oh, yeah, my partner and I
found out some pretty devastating news last year
that, you know, um...
..we're unable to conceive naturally.
We're both born to be parents and we will make it happen one day,
but the financial stress, you know, will be pretty hard.
That's my push.
Olympia, what are you drawing on?
Well, a bit like Taylor, really.
It's been two and half years of infertility,
lots of miscarriages, lots of rounds of IVF,
and I just felt like I was tired and I wanted to do something for me,
and so this is it.
See, you guys are stronger than you think.
You've got plenty to draw on.
If you use this and use this...
..you can get to the top...
..and you're going to need to draw on that motivation
and band together
because I'm afraid I've got some bad news.
Go ahead.
Yesterday morning, a new hiker was set loose...
Oh, no.
..to chase you down.
(GROANS)
What the hell?
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
If they catch you, they will get to steal someone's money...
Oh, no!
No!
Right.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
..and kick 'em off the mountain.
What?
This is a whole new game.
Yeah.
We were told, expect the unexpected
and we did not expect to have a chaser on our tails.
They must be a machine.
Stronger and fitter than the rest of us.
It could be someone maybe from last year.
The way you were moving yesterday,
they're going to be hot on your tail.
So, you need to do better, work better together,
and don't get caught.
(NERVOUS CHUCKLES)
Right, I'll be watching.
On that note, let's get moving!
Let's go! Let's go!
JAI: They've been warned.
Come on, come on! Come on, guys!
Let's go, let's go, let's go! We've got to get out of here!
Come on!
JAI: Slow the group down today
and risk being caught,
having their cash stolen,
and losing their place on the mountain.
We might be coming up to something up here.
There's a huge waterfall up there.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
See that rope above it?
Oh, no.
(ROPES CREAKING)
Bring it in!
"A mighty waterfall awaits...
"..with a 100 metre drop below.
"One fine line is all you have to get across.
"Hang in there."
Oh, my god!
That is not going to be easy.
Oh!
That's a big drop.
It's absolutely terrifying.
It is so steep.
SIMMONE: I am a bit injured,
so I don't know how that's going to impact.
I don't know if I can do it.
Ooh!
Oh, god.
JAI: Their most menacing challenge so far.
I don't know what to hold on to!
I'm panicking.
Uh-oh.
I can't do it, no!
Hey, I can hear something!
Oh, no!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
JAI: And the mountain's keeper...
..multiplies.
Why is there two?
Oh, my god.
Go, go, go!
JAI: Yesterday morning, a new hiker was a set loose to chase you down.
Don't get caught.
Quick, quick, quick!
JAI: The ten remaining hikers have to pick up the pace.
Now, they know they've got the chaser on their tail...
Head down, bum up!
..they're only fives kilometres away from the next checkpoint,
but...
(FOREBODING SOUNDTRACK)
Oh, no!
There's a huge waterfall up there.
..blocking their path is a freezing waterfall...
..with a 100 m drop.
Oh, that is high.
JAI: It's the highest obstacle they've faced so far.
Oh, no!
JAI: To cross it,
they'll need to haul themselves up a sheer rock face,
then they'll need to hang upside down from a single rope
and battle the icy wind
as they pull themselves across the top of the falls.
It looks so windy up there.
Yeah.
Man, this wind is...
This is bad.
Ooh!
Oh, god.
This obstacle looks impossible.
You're going to be absolutely gassed before you even start the rope.
Your arms are going to be... Yeah.
..pretty buckled by the time we get there.
(SIGHS) I'd be really surprised if most of us even make it first go.
You going? Yeah.
Get amongst it.
Alright.
Up the rock face.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(GROANS WITH EFFORT)
It's pretty gnarly, man.
It's so, so steep.
(GROANS)
It is scary
but I know I've got the ability to push myself past breaking point.
I'm proud of how far I've come.
I worked at a desk job most of my life, doing admin.
You don't leave your desk at lunch.
You just sit there and you're wolfing it down,
and then, you know, the 3:00, "Where's the bloody choccy box?"
And you going to find that shit and it's like...
It's a recipe for disaster.
I was a very big girl.
I was at a point in my life
where, you know, my health was at crisis.
They did health checks for mob
and I was told that,
"You're at risk of diabetes, high blood pressure,
"high cholesterol."
All of that happening at once was just a big wake-up call.
So, six years ago, I lost 25 kg.
I became a personal trainer.
I definitely don't have the ego of other PTs.
There's still a small part of me
that is the big girl that's a little bit insecure, I think.
But I've proven to myself that I am capable,
so let's just be happy like hobbits and get up there.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Good work, Trish!
Oh, that's so brutal!
Alright, let's go.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Oh, shit.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Ow!
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Oh, my god.
She's losing it, she's losing it, she's losing her legs.
Cable it! Good work!
Don't stop!
I can't do it!
Keep going mate! Don't stop!
Just keep going!
I can't do it!
Mind over body!
Mind over body, mate!
(HEARTBEAT POUNDING)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Keep going, mate! Come on, just keep going!
Get your legs up!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Just keep going! Don't stop! Keep going!
You can push this!
I can't do it. No!
Oh, no!
Trish has just gone down.
(APPLAUSE) Good work, darling.
JAI: Well, that wasn't a great start.
Trish has fallen, wasting precious time,
while Sam, the chaser, is closing in.
Every minute spent here...
Oh, come on!
..gets him closer to catching the group, stealing somebody's cash,
and kicking them off the mountain.
Who's going next?
I think Charlotte's up next.
Oh, god.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Go, Char!
I am at high risk of pooing my pants.
I am very nervous.
CHARLOTTE: I just feel like every obstacle,
I've had to learn to adapt.
It's not becoming easier for me.
Climbing, for me, I am at huge physical disadvantage.
I've got only three points of contact really.
So, I feel very unstable.
I'm scared!
I don't like it.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
I don't know what to hold onto!
I'm panicking!
I don't want to do this anymore.
CHARLOTTE: I don't like it.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
I'm panicking!
I don't know what to hold onto!
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
In terms of climbing, it's really physically challenging for me.
Help me!
That is also complicated by the fact that I am deeply afraid of heights.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Oh, (BLEEP)!
I hate this so much!
But we're being chased down by the chaser,
so I'm trying not to show weakness.
But I am absolutely terrified right now.
Oh, my god.
It's OK.
You're OK.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Olympia, Char's at the top!
(UPLIFTING SOUNDTRACK)
Made it!
She made it!
(UPLIFTING SOUNDTRACK)
Whoo-hoo!
Yeah, Char!
(UPLIFTING SOUNDTRACK)
Oh, my god.
Oh!
You've got it, Charlotte! You're doing so well!
CHARLOTTE: I'm scared!
You've got this, babe!
OK.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
I can do it.
The only way for me to get across is if I go as quickly as possible.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Go.
Go! Go!
Go! Go! Don't stop!
Don't stop! Don't stop! Don't stop!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Go, Char! You're so good!
Nice work! Don't stop! Don't stop!
Look at her go!
Don't stop! Don't stop!
You can do it! You can do it!
Go, Char!
Oh, my god.
Don't stop! Don't stop!
Don't stop! Come on! Keep going!
Oh!
Did I do it?
Go! (CHEERING)
Yes!
Nice work!
Oh!
Thank god!
Amazing!
I don't know.
With great difficulty.
I also sobbed most of the way up.
(SOBBING)
JAI: This crossing was never going to be easy.
But Charlotte has shown that it can be done.
Now, all the others need to do...
Go, Lochie!
Yeah, sweetie!
..is follow her example.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Go, Lochie! Oh, my god! He's so quick!
(CONTESTANTS CHEERING)
Killing it, mate! Keep going!
Come on!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Nearly there!
(CHEERING)
Made it!
Everyone's doing a bloody good job. Well done.
Who's next?
Simmone.
Oh, my god.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
I'm really worried about Simmone and her shoulder.
She's been nursing it.
Yep, hopefully she can just take it slow and steady
and just use her good arm.
Oh, shit.
I'm feeling just incredibly exposed and vulnerable right now.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Yes, Simmone!
The obstacle yesterday, I fell off and hurt my shoulder.
Just take your time.
I was sitting on the verge of a panic attack for a long time.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Oh, my god.
I have to get across because I have to get to the summit.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
So close.
Come on! Keep going, mate!
You're unstoppable!
Come on! Keep going!
Yes!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Yes, come on!
Whoo!
Yeah, babe. Nice! Well done!
Great stuff! (APPLAUSE)
Whoo-hoo!
(UPLIFTING MUSIC)
I am a fighter and a warrior, and I got it.
I've just got to...
I've got to bring it in, I've got to rein it in.
JAI: A personal victory is all well and good,
but this is no time for celebration.
They're still not moving fast enough.
I tried to warn 'em.
Go, Lympi!
I'm already guessed from the climb.
It's a lot further than it looks down there.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
We're on a time crunch here, guys.
Yeah, Lymp! Nice and quick!
You've got this!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Go, Lymp!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Don't stop! Keep going!
Hey, I can hear something.
What is that?
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
It's the mountain's keeper!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
JAI: Let's see how they handle the pressure...
..when it's doubled.
Why is there two?
Oh, my god.
Go, go!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Keep going! Go, go, go, go!
Come on!
Faster, faster!
Oh, that's so hectic!
Oh, my god.
(GROANING WITH EFFORT)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
It's the mountain's keeper!
Oh, no!
Go, Lymp!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
There's two!
Oh, no. This is bad.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Oh, that's so hectic!
(GROANS)
Look at that wind. Yeah, the ropes are blowing.
Oh, that's so hard.
It's spraying the water up on her.
Pull, pull, pull, pull!
Keep moving!
Keep going, Olympia! You can do it!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
You can do this!
Don't worry about 'em!
Don't stop, Olympia!
Come on, Olympia!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Oh! No!
Far out!
Uh-oh.
The more people that fall,
the more time we're taking, you know?
Olympia is going to have to do it again.
Trish is going to have to do it again.
And that person is on the move and coming for us.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Let's get everyone across.
Was that two helicopters then?
Very windy!
Man, that's brutal.
How were you doing it?
Arms straight and my ankles hooked,
but ultimately, my grip strength gave out that way.
My grip strength isn't great either.
Guess we just have to keep going.
Everyone else has done it.
You need to get over there fast.
You need to complete the task.
Otherwise, that's another reason to be voted out of this.
Yeah, Olympia.
Use your legs!
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Good job! Go, go, go, go, go!
Yeah, Lymp! Nice and quick!
It's all about technique. She got a lot better the second time.
Keep going, mate! That's good, Olympia! Go, go, go, go, go!
Yeah, Olympia!
Well done! Whoo!
OK, one more.
Go, Trishy!
You need to get your legs up over, not the ankles.
Hey, hook your knees, Trish!
Yeah!
That's better! A lot better, Trish!
Yeah, Trish! Quick, quick, quick!
Much better! Go, go, go, go, go!
You can do it, Trish!
This is much further than what she got before.
She's killing it.
Yeah, Trish!
(CHEERING) Good job, mate.
Legendary!
That was hard, wasn't it?
That was brutal. Well done.
It was so intimidating
with those two keepers there. I'll bet!
But we've just got to knuckle down. We've got to keep going.
Yeah.
JAI: Checkpoint three is now within their reach,
just four kilometres away.
But if they're hoping for a respite,
they can think again
because when they get there,
they'll have to vote to steal someone's cash
and send them packing.
Time to see where their loyalties really lie.
Oh, we're nearly there.
I've got this dilemma.
Slipping and sliding.
Lochie is someone that I really trust...
You right? Yeah.
..and have a really good bond with,
and he is desperate to get Mat out.
Now would be your best place to fill your water bottles if you want.
But I feel very loyal to Mat.
We bonded really early on.
I'm in a huge pickle.
I definitely want to support Lochie,
but I need to give Mat that warning.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Charlotte gave me some intel that I needed
and to come from her, it meant that this is legit.
Lochie's plotting against me.
Yeah.
My name's out there. I don't care.
It's always going to be out there.
That's what the game's about. You've got to play the game.
We're all good, team? Yeah.
Let's get going. Come on!
JAI: Next...
Cheers to everyone. Cheers.
(LAUGHS)
JAI: Has Lochie bitten off more than he can chew?
What are you thinking tonight?
Lochie.
JAI: Or is the godfather, Mat, about to have his last supper?
Mat is pulling the strings,
so I need to make sure
that I'm getting his name in everyone's mouths
and of the mountain.
How do you feel about Mat?
I think people have started to realise
how much power Mat has within the game,
and I think I've got the numbers.
(WIND HOWLING)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(CHEERING) We're at checkpoint, guys!
Touch the sign!
Whoo! Yes!
Well done, guys! Well done, guys!
Wine time! Well done!
Margies!
You're kidding!
Happy days!
(LAUGHS)
Let's have a look! It's not quite the weather for it.
But it'll do.
Holy Santa Claus.
Look, man, we've got full spread.
Mexican!
Holy shit! It's Mexican!
Yum! Yes!
Look at this checkpoint.
Look at where we are.
This is absolutely breathtaking.
(UPLIFTING MUSIC SWELLS)
I'm stoked to get here,
but on the other side,
I've got to send someone home
and my name is being bandied around by Lochie.
Cheers, boys!
Cheers, boys. Hey, take a chord, baby!
So, the game's on.
Happy days!
Hearing your name certainly wakes you up.
Certainly gets, you know, the juices flowing,
but it's important just to be a little bit calm
and just work out a plan, not just go off gung-ho.
But before we head back out there, how are we all feeling?
I'm feeling anything could (BLEEP) happen.
I think the only game I can play
is to continue to play the logical game,
and those who are unfit, injured...
..that's just where I'm at because...
Do you think Simmone?
Well, it is the smart way to go
and it's an easy vote, isn't it?
Yeah.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
I'm telling Lochie we're going to target Simmone
just to throw a little bit of confusion into the game.
Cheers to everyone. Cheers.
Great job.
I love being on this mountain with you guys.
Yes, Ava. We love you.
But the bottom line is, I want to vote out Lochie...
..because he's just a little thorn in my side at the moment,
so it's a really simple, let's get rid of Lochie,
and we'll reset the game,
and we'll start again, so I need to go and rally the troops.
I will in a minute.
I'll make you one if you want. OK.
Margarita bar is open!
(LAUGHS)
It's all in the shaking.
(LAUGHS)
I feel like I've built good relationships.
I feel like that's a strength of mine.
(FOREBODING SOUNDTRACK)
Cheers, mate. There you go, brother.
I tell you what, cold hands is not great when it's cold.
(LAUGHTER)
Makes sense to me.
So, I can work my magic,
a little bit of influence here, a little bit of influence there,
a little bit of pixie dust there and there.
Do you want a margarita?
Yeah, I do.
And this burnt finger and this nub,
they'll get to the end, they'll get to the end.
Do you want a Margie?
Yeah, sure.
That one's strong!
Shit. OK.
What are you thinking tonight?
Lochie.
Cool.
Yeah.
I know he's running around trying to put me forward.
I love him to bits but he's just too strong.
I'm happy. Yeah.
How good is this?
You've done this before, haven't you?
(LAUGHS)
This is what I do. I sit at the bar here,
I make the drinks, people come to me, ask me what's going on,
we pull the strings, and we enjoy the night.
It is so difficult for me because I can see what's going on.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Mat is pulling the strings
and they don't see that they're just getting played.
So, I need to make sure
that I'm standing up as a leader in this group
and getting his name in everyone's mouths and off the mountain.
What are you thinking for tonight, Lochie,
if we have to vote on someone? Yeah, the big question.
What's the vote for tonight, Lochie? What are you doing?
Now, the mouth goes into overdrive,
I switch out of farm mode and into politics mode, I reckon,
and see what I can conjure up.
How do you feel about Mat?
I think he's been telling us all different things
and playing different games.
What's going on in there?
Oh, yeah. They're in there trying to swing the votes.
Swing the girls.
That's what's happening.
Can I go and listen from the outside of the tent?
Yeah, you just can go in.
Or you can listen from the outside.
Yeah, go round and listen from the back.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
We need to make sure that we're all on the same page.
My thought is who I can trust in this game.
For me, I think I want Mat gone because I just can't trust him.
Definitely a strategy player...
Yeah. ..by far.
He's definitely an old hand at it.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
He's putting your name in the circle.
Your name was brought up...
Yeah. ..as the logical decision.
Not out of my mouth, out of Mat's.
He really said me?
He said P I promise you, he said you.
I'm trying to work a few friendships,
trying to work a few things.
I've never said you, I've never said you,
hand on heart.
We've all got great friends around here.
Do we work together?
Or do we just wait to get picked off?
I'm going to be voting for Mat.
OK.
So, I think tonight's the night.
That's my thoughts.
The sooner I get Mattie boy off, the better for me
and the better for everyone, I think.
CHARLOTTE: Two of my strongest bonds are Mat and Lochie.
I don't want to see either of them go.
So, I am going to encourage people to go for the money.
I think, in my mind, is Phil.
He is amazing, wonderful.
I really, really respect and care for him.
But he's carrying 300 K
and we've had 500 million twists today...
Haven't we?
..and we're still entrusting this money to him.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, I'm happy for him to carry it. It's pretty heavy.
(LAUGHS) It's so heavy.
Yeah.
I think people have started to realise
how much power Mat has within the game.
So, I need to make sure that people stand up, have a bit of backbone,
and we all vote Mat off...
Ooh!
..and I think I've got the numbers.
How are you feeling?
Oh, alright.
I sit at the top, I'm the king of the mountain,
and I cook the barbecue, I make the drinks,
I get the information,
and we decide who leaves,
and right now, it's Lochie.
The unknown.
Yeah.
It's heating up. You and me, Mattie boy.
Let's see who wins.
Let's play. Let's play, baby. Let's play.
JAI: Coming up...
I think I can be a bit of an asset moving forward.
JAI: It's Lochie's chance to take out the top dog.
You're talking about me
and saying that I'm mentioning everybody's name.
Which you have.
I haven't mentioned anybody's name.
You are lying through your teeth, mate.
JAI: But will a visit from the mountain's keepers...
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
You're all going to be running for a duffel.
..turn the game on its head?
Go! Go, Lochie!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
There he is!
Everybody, here's our man.
Uh-oh. Hey!
Uncle Jai's here!
Oh, what have we got going on here?
Margarita?
You want some ribs, mate?
What are life, hey? (CHUCKLES)
Margaritas on the mountain.
That's it.
How good.
Well, as you know, this little reward comes at a cost...
Oh.
..and that cost to you...
..is, of course, having to vote...
..steal someone's cash...
..kick them off the mountain.
Thought we might get a break.
Would've been nice.
I feel sick.
How would you sum up the group, Simmone? How fast are they walking?
I think everyone is walking very fast.
I would definitely be the slowest.
Are you cradling a little injury there?
I am.
Are you worried people might see that as a weakness?
Yeah, sure.
For sure. It's obvious.
What about you, Mat?
Now, you've got someone chasing you,
do you think you're moving fast enough?
Think you guys will get caught?
Well, I mean, there's one versus ten of us at the moment.
So, every obstacle, he gets P they get to, whoever it is,
is going to do it ten times quicker than us,
and we've got, what, nine days to go,
so they'd have to be pretty bloody slow not to catch us,
but it's about how far can we get before they catch us?
So, we're determined to rip in and we did that today.
I thought today, everyone was just... I was blown away.
Like, that obstacle was...
..rad. Like, it was insane,
and everyone just took it on and just smashed it.
I was so stoked to see it.
And I think as a group, we are working together.
What about you, Lochie?
Do you think the group's cohesive, working on the same page?
I don't think so.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
I think we have separated
and I think there's going to be some necessity
and some moves tonight
if there's one person going
to bring us all back together.
Very interesting.
Well, there's one more thing.
Of course there is.
Oh, god.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
I don't like that grin.
That smile.
Tonight, it's going to be a little bit different.
(DISTANT RUMBLING)
Hear that?
Oh, my god.
You saw the challenge today that the mountain's keeper...
..has a little friend.
Oh, no!
Oh!
And they're about to rain down hell on you guys.
Oh, shit. Far out.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
There is nothing good about to happen
when those mountain keepers come out of the woodwork.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Any time you see even just one helicopter,
you're, like, freaking out,
and then you get two?
This can only mean trouble.
They're going to drop a red bag
and they're going to drop a black bag.
You're all going to be running for a duffel.
You must pick a side.
Oh, my god.
Five red, five black.
Don't open them, bring them back.
What the... Far out.
So, there's two choppers in the sky.
We've got to pick red bag or black bag.
What does this actually mean? I don't know.
None of us do, but it could be an absolute game changer.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Go!
Go, go, go! Go, Lochie!
(WIND HOWLING)
JAI: They're going to drop a red bag
and they're going to drop a black bag.
You must pick a side.
Don't open them and bring them back.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Go!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Go, Lochie!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
One, two, three, four, five.
How things change so fast.
Oh, my god. They change so fast.
There might be one bag that's safe and one bag is not.
We know, but it's a gamble. It's 50-50.
Can't change it.
I'm very happy with this group though.
I'm happy for you five, four to be here.
I trust you guys.
JAI: Bring it in, guys.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Oh, shit.
You right?
Back me in, guys.
(FOREBODING SOUNDTRACK)
JAI: Alright. Let's have a bit of fun, shall we?
One of these bags represents safety.
Oh, my god. I knew it!
Oh, right.
One of these bags is just for the vulnerable.
Pick the safe bag and you can't be voted for tonight.
Knew it!
Oh, my god.
JAI: Find yourself with the vulnerable bag
and you can be voted off the mountain right now.
The minute you think you've got this game worked out,
two keepers show up and throw a spanner in the works.
The plan is to take Lochie out.
He's plotting against me.
But this could change everything.
Alright, red side, let's have a peek what's inside.
Give us a look.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
Please, please, please.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
(LAUGHS)
"Safe." It says, "Safe."
(FOREBODING SOUNDTRACK)
Bugger.
(FOREBODING SOUNDTRACK)
Oh!
As soon as I see that sign come out, I'm absolutely devastated.
I want to take out Mat
and all I can see is him sitting on the other side
with a bag that says, "Safe."
Better open mine then, had I?
It's not too good for you guys, is it?
Let's have a look.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
"Vulnerable."
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
What that means
is you five are the only ones that can be voted for tonight.
Yeah.
So, let me reiterate.
Red, you're all safe.
Black, not so much.
The good news, everybody can still vote.
OK.
But you can only vote for Simmone, Lochie, Tiff, Charlotte, or Olympia.
You lot, consider yourselves the walking dead.
Now, I'm sure this has thrown little spanner in the works.
But as usual, have a chat, put it all out there.
You guys know what to do.
MAT: I'm safe tonight.
I think I've got the trust of the five people
that got to the red bag.
And I know Lochie's plotting against me.
So, it's a really simple let's get rid of Lochie
and we'll reset the game and we'll start again.
LOCHIE: It's not looking good.
This might be my last chance to save myself.
If I'm going to go out, I'm going to go out swinging.
I don't think I'm any more deserving of being here
than anyone else on this panel of five over here.
I think we're all here for our own real reasons.
I think I've been playing the game in a trustworthy and honest state.
My vote tonight was going to go towards Mat...
..because of my trust issues.
With me, you don't have those trust issues.
I look you straight between the eyes and I tell you how it is.
I also think I can be a bit of an asset moving forward.
I want more than one person to get to the top
and you know that I'll help every single one of you
try and get up in any way, shape, or form.
It's only a necessity
that we have to vote people out along the way.
But I'll carry backpacks,
I'll work as hard as I have to be,
I'll stop, chat, check-in.
That's just me.
You said you have trust issues with me.
Like, I've never mentioned your name to anybody ever,
and worked with you,
and then I find out you're talking about me
and saying that I've mentioned everybody's name.
Which you have.
I haven't mentioned anybody's name.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
You are lying through your teeth, mate.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(WIND HOWLING)
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
You said you have trust issues with me.
But I've never mentioned your name to anybody ever,
and worked with you,
and then I find out you're talking about me.
You are lying through your teeth, mate.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
MAT: I love Lochie.
But he's been, you know, throwing the under a bus
and it just hasn't worked for him.
He just went too hard too soon.
So, anyway.
I think we need to show hands.
So, who would like to vote for Tiff.
Tiff, I am so sorry.
I'm - you're not going to get voted out.
This is a throwaway vote.
So, I'll vote for you
because, um, yeah, I'm not putting my name to a vote for Lochie.
Sorry.
Not in a million years. Not in 1.5 billion years.
One vote for Tiff.
OK. Who would like to vote for Charlotte?
Charlotte, I'm voting for you.
Thank you. (LAUGHS)
Put your hands up now.
One vote for Charlotte. OK.
If anyone would like to vote for Olympia...
I'll vote back then. Great.
..please put your hands up now.
OK. One vote for Olympia.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
If anyone would like to vote for Simmone,
please put your hands up now.
(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
So, one vote for Simmone.
And who would like to vote for Lochie?
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
That's me done then.
(SOMBRE SOUNDTRACK)
All good.
I'm super gutted.
There's lots more to go in the game.
I played my cards a little bit wrong.
Mattie certainly pulled his strings.
He's knocked me off the mountain before I could knock him off,
and unfortunately, I was beaten by a better player in the game.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
See you later, guys! See ya!
See you, brother. All the best.
Bye, Lochie. Bye, darling.
I love you, Lochie.
Love you, guys. See you later.
I hope you can understand that.
I understand.
I know.
So do I. I feel bad for him.
He came at me and he lost.
Yeah.
Lochie, he's a rookie.
He just went too hard too soon.
But people know me as the Godfather,
so if someone wants to go against me, bring it on.
Let's go, baby. Let's go.
JAI: Next time...
Oh, no.
Oh, my god! Here comes...
The mountain's keeper...
Oh, my god! This is too (BLEEP) much!
..drops a bombshell.
Oh!
Tonight, the Nub Club will officially be disbanded.
JAI: One of the Nub Club
will leave the mountain forever...
..and the chaser catches his prey.
Who's that?
Is that Sam?
