[Heather grunts]
I'm just [bleep] frustrated.
[sobbing]
This is hell.
I know this is tough. I know this is like
some of the toughest [bleep] that we've all been through.
I'm just fed-up.
I wanna go home.
[Andrew] Heather's definitely struggling.
She said she's a pro with primitive fire, so I let her take the lead.
And maybe that pressure's just getting to her.
Heather, today was a hard day. We are all beat down.
And I know that your body has taken a hit.
But you are a strong, strong woman.
You know that.
[Patrick] It's okay to, like, vent and let it out.
But, like, quitting's not an option for any of us.
I think it's best if we just take a minute to, like, chill out.
[Heather] I'm worried.
Because we still can't start a fire.
And I don't know if I can hold on to this hope anymore.
I'm just fed-up.
[narrator] One week into the 21 day challenge,
three teams of three remain stranded on the deserted island.
To the northeast,
under the dense, jungle canopy...
Okay, I'm ashed up for the mosquitoes
and I'm gonna go take the trap.
I'll be back.
[narrator] Signs of a wild hog...
[Na'im] Oh [bleep]! It's a pig!
That guy is gonna go down very soon.
[narrator] ...inspired Bulent to think big.
[all whooping]
[narrator] And with no tools to work with,
he turns salvaged airplane wire into a snare.
Those cables might get us some bacon at the end of the night.
But it's Na'im's innovative shrimp trap...
Plus Gilligan's Island is [bleep].
...that provided their latest meal.
Hey, guys! We got shrimp tonight.
-[Kerra whoops] -[Bulent] Beautiful!
I do wanna check the traps and feed we left for the pig.
As long as that's set, it's just a sit and wait game.
Look at the pathway.
There's a fresh mark.
He's around here somewhere.
Which makes it quite dangerous because that's a big-ass pig.
There's dirt right there that has been moved.
So the chance is
that he went through there
or he jumped over here.
He definitely was there in the coconut.
There's no coconut left.
That means I have to funnel this thing down
all the way to this barrier,
give him no chance to go anywhere but through these traps.
[pensive music playing]
[Kerra] What's the verdict, boss?
-Uh, he was there, all right. -[Kerra] Yeah?
I think the first action should be beefing up the tunnel.
It is a big animal.
And the tusks are ridonkulously dangerous.
-[Kerra] Yeah. -Killing him gonna be difficult.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[Kerra] I'm thinking we've got some stuff here.
Yeah? We've got the metal that was covering our wood.
[Na'im] Yeah, we got my bat.
-We've got this table. -[Kerra] And we've got this table.
Yeah, I think if we put those--
I mean, I'm not a hunter I don't do this stuff.
So, but, in my mind, if we put it there
and lots of foliage,
give the illusion that he can't get through.
[Bulent] You know, everybody thinks
I don't play well with others, I'm not a team player.
I don't think that's the question.
The question is, what are you bringing onto the table?
To be in my team?
Yes, we will, uh, go with whatever we make.
We will adjust if it needs to,
but let's get these panels and stuff up.
-And go beef that thing. -Yeah, let's do it.
[Bulent] These two bring some knowledge
but I've done this a couple of more times.
And if you don't do it right, you're gonna spend even more energy.
[Na'im] Getting that pig would mean a lot.
Definitely feed us well for several days.
And I love trap-making.
Because I am a hunter and I do know how to build things.
-[Na'im grunts] -[Bulent] We have to hike high into the hills.
[Bulent] And it is really rocky, feet are torn.
Yeah, it sucks, but that's part of life.
Let me put this guy on top.
And then we can evaluate if we need to use that for here or higher.
[Kerra] Okay.
-You need help? -No.
[Na'im] So the method that we're using
is sort of a snare and funnel.
With the idea being that if you can
flush the pig into the game trail,
um, he would walk into those snares and get hooked.
We're using some of the scraps we found
to make a physical barrier there, like on certain parts of it.
So that it really is a funnel.
So that your only way
of getting to the bait is to go directly into it.
I can't put these things through deep enough
to create actual support
so it won't fall.
Uh, you know, there's two holes right here. Maybe if you suck one...
diagonal through the hole...
[Bulent] No, the sticks can't handle it.
[Kerra] No, no, down.
-[Bulent] You say stick it through that hole? -Stick it through that hole.
[Kerra] And then it maybe able to hold it up.
No, no, no, I know what you're saying.
It will just make it go that way.
[Na'im] Bulent, actually, he definitely takes pride
in being able to, you know, take down the critters.
But it just feels like we're, like, very much following behind one person.
-That's-- -[Kerra] What do you mean? Why would it do that?
We call that gravity.
What if you did it from the other side?
Nope. I think what we need is bigger sticks
and this... one good one can hold this entire thing.
[Kerra] Bulent, he's always on the go.
He's always thinking about the next step.
Um, but honestly, I think we're all feeling very exhausted.
Low fuel, low energy.
So if we were to get this pig, I mean,
it would ensure the rest of our challenge.
No. No.
I need you to drag that bitch down.
There we go. That's it.
This is good.
-[Kerra] Yeah? -That'll do.
Okay.
-[Kerra] War pig. -War pig.
Dun, dun.
[narrator] On the other side of the island,
amid the thick mangrove swamps...
[Justin] Okay, so...
Honestly, I'm feeling very tired today.
-[Rachel] I know. -I kind of feel depleted.
[Candice] I know I did a lot yesterday with limited food.
-[Rachel] Obviously, we need to eat. -[Justin] Yes.
Because your girl is hungry.
Grab him.
-I'm so sorry, dude. -Oh!
[narrator] It's been five days since Candice secured
her team's only significant protein.
[Candice] I've never processed a pelican before.
[narrator] And a close call with fire
left their only source of sparks
dangerously low.
Fire needs to be going 24/7.
We're starving.
We're so hungry today.
And the past couple of days have been roller-coasters
so my plan is to go out
and harvest more food for us,
find coconuts, do whatever I need to do to get food.
[captivating instrumental music playing]
Hungry, haven't eaten.
But getting water, it's the most important task on the team
because without water, we have no survival at all.
I primarily go out, the girls also go out at times.
And it gives me purpose, too.
I feel, personally, most men in this situation,
with two females, would be like, "Hey, we're gonna do things this way, A, B and C."
And it's not like that for me. We're all teammates.
I grew up with a single mother.
And I was raised by cousins that were females
that were pretty much like my sisters.
So I feel good at communicating with my two partners.
We're all handling tasks. It's a beautiful partnership.
[captivating instrumental music playing]
I walk down the shore a bit because
every time the tide comes in,
it brings us a whole new batch of goodies.
It's like going to a flea market
where the wares change every single day
and you never know what you're gonna find.
Cool, cool, cool, cool.
I find this little metal box
and I'm really excited about it because
with our fire situation,
we don't known if we'll be able to get another fire if ours goes out.
But because we have this metal box,
I think I can make some char-cloth
that will make our odds a lot better.
[narrator] The creation of char-cloth
starts with swatches of organic material,
such as cotton fibers,
tightly packed and sealed with minimum oxygen.
Extended exposure to heat
triggers a process of thermal decomposition
that turns the fibers into highly flammable charcoal.
I'm gonna drill a little hole here on top of this canister
and then put strips of cotton inside.
I don't want it to be too full.
The fire is going to ignite those strips without oxygen.
And so, it's going to, like, charcoal-ize it.
And once that goes out, I'll pull it.
And then we'll have all those bits of char-cloth we can use to start fires.
[captivating instrumental music playing]
I would love to just find a coconut.
Oh, my God. Look at that.
I am finding a ton of snails.
Come on, little guy.
I can grab some,
and that way at least I go back with something versus empty-handed.
I tapped on my first challenge in Zambia.
But feel like I'm finally in my groove.
Like, I'm not trying to survive anymore.
Like, I'm surviving out here, and I'm only gonna keep getting better and better.
This is a big win for us.
Hopefully, it tastes good but if not,
we'll force it down 'cause it's what we need to keep going.
[narrator] On the opposite coast...
on the island's largest stretch of beach...
[Patrick] It is hot as balls.
I'm just, like, daydreaming about [imitates chugging water]
the feeling of just chugging a bottle.
Water's our highest agenda right now.
Everyone's feeling really thirsty.
We knocked down three coconuts. That helps a lot.
But we're very far from being fully hydrated.
[narrator] After five days in the jungle without fire...
So I'm done [bleep] around with friction fire.
I'm, like, over wasting my [bleep] time.
[narrator] ...castaways Heather, Patrick and Andrew
headed north without a map,
trekking over three treacherous miles to a vast beach.
But now, they have no fire...
[grunts]
...and no fresh water.
Ready to go get water, I think.
[Patrick] Let's grab our bottles and head out.
Where's the big, big one?
[Andrew] I have it.
[Heather] Even with coconut water I'm consuming at the moment,
my lips are still dry and sticking on my teeth.
We've gotta find a fresh water source and we gotta find it now.
[Andrew] At this moment in my life,
I'd rather find fresh water than win the lottery.
-[Heather] Oh. -'Cause that's...
-I'm so thirsty right now. -...is what... what I actually need.
[Andrew] Got this kind of water tributary that leads right out to the ocean.
But there's also salt water in this.
And that's enough to make me kind of nervous.
'Cause I'm like, "Ugh!" Drinking salt water can dehydrate you even faster
and eventually lead to death.
So I'm thinking maybe if we continue to follow it upstream,
there'll be a little bit more flow to it.
And hope it's gonna be drinkable at some point soon.
It looks a bit murky.
Seems to be flowing that way.
[Heather] Obviously, everything we're stepping on is damp.
That means the ocean's coming up here at higher tide.
That means this water source is contaminated.
-[Andrew] Yeah. -[Heather] The salt in it,
-[Heather] it's gonna be too high for us to drink. -[Patrick] Yep.
[Heather] Obviously, we've got some movement here.
If we walk around, continue to go, we're gonna find where it comes off from
and find a bigger source, maybe some springs.
[Andrew] Oh, my gosh. Think I see fresh water.
[Patrick] Are you sure it's fresh water?
[Andrew] Yeah.
[Patrick] Ooh! [bleep]
[Andrew] Something's happening over there where we gotta cross.
[suspenseful music playing]
Right there!
-[Heather] Okay. -[Andrew] [bleep] Oh, my gosh!
[Patrick] Saltwater croc.
[Heather speaking]
Wherever he is right now, he's watching us.
[Andrew] Oh, yeah.
[Patrick] Nothing comes easy.
Right there! [bleep]
[Patrick] Saltwater croc. [bleep]
Plot twist, saltwater crocodiles!
Oh, it's right over there, popped its head out,
saw us, went back down.
Wherever he is right now, he's watching us.
[Andrew] Patrick just saw a saltwater crocodile
which is cool! I love big, cool animals.
But also bad. That means there's another barrier
between us and fresh water.
And it's a barrier that can eat you.
[narrator] One of the most aggressive reptiles in the world,
the saltwater crocodile can grow up to 20 feet
and weigh more than 2,000 pounds.
We're gonna have to be able to get through it.
We'd have to go right around.
Part of it is tricky.
But I think that's a risk I'm willing to take.
Let's go get that water. All right.
It's a do-or-die. Without fresh water, we're done.
Our challenge is over.
[Patrick] Stick together.
[Heather] It's us against crocodiles.
If we want anything to drink, it just got worse.
[Patrick] We're at the source of the spring, dude.
-[Andrew] Really? -Yeah.
[Patrick] Comes right out of the ground right there.
There's nothing above this.
Natural spring.
-Mm-hmm. -Yeah!
Try it.
-Two opinions. -[Patrick] That's what I like to hear.
Two opinions.
-[Patrick] It's good. -That's it.
-Yep. -Oh, my gosh
[Heather] Oh, my God, that tastes so good!
[Andrew] Feels amazing.
[Heather] This is the most perfect water on the planet.
This is a huge win for me.
This is a huge win for my team.
And I want to cry because I'm barely hanging on.
This challenge, it's the hardest thing
I've ever had to do in my life.
[Patrick] It wasn't easy finding this spot. [chuckles]
[Candice] I went and got us some snails for dinner.
Probably 30, 30 or 40 in my bag.
I've never seen escargot on menus and I would never.
But I'll definitely try it.
Feel better about mollusks than mammals and birds, for some reason.
Protein's really important in situations like this.
And Candice is always willing to step up
and help our team and I'm so, so grateful for her.
So now we're eating snails.
We're cooking them in our toilet that we found.
Love this for us.
Love it, truly.
Um, we're just gonna turn it upside down, kind of roast them on the back.
You're gonna let them cook until they're very, very, very well done.
Smash it.
You smash it too hard, it turns to jelly.
But if you're light with it, super easy.
Just pop 'em out.
[Candice] Can't wait to eat! I get so excited.
Poo-poo platter.
-Poo-poo platter. -Literally.
[Rachel] The poo-poo platter!
-[Candice] Doesn't that look yummy? -[Rachel] Mmm!
-Why don't you-- -One...
[Rachel and Candice] ...two, three...
Go time.
[retches]
[Rachel laughing]
He literally was like, "No, don't eat me!"
Oh, it spread its little snail... arms on you?
He did.
[Rachel] I know my body needs it.
But they do make me feel so much better
-and I am very grateful-- -They're pretty big. I don't know if you can eat it.
-I gotta. Yeah, it's okay. -[Candice] One, two, three, go.
[Candice] Down the hatch.
-Do what we gotta do to get to day 21. -Yes!
[suspenseful music playing]
[Andrew] Let's stay right here where this raised area...
-Let's not go too far. -Okay.
Let's do it up here.
Obviously have to get a fire going.
Feel like I'm the biggest idiot for not having a fire yet.
So I sat down with a mirror to try to get a reflection fire,
using the sun to actually start a fire.
It's-- Now, we're partly cloudy.
Should we wait for it to pass?
'Cause we're still getting sunburn.
I know. It looks like we're gonna be cloudy for a while.
[Patrick] We gotta wait for the right conditions.
Let's not waste energy
and sweat and get over-heated
-trying to do something that's gonna be futile. -Yeah. Damn it.
We could leave this here, though, to dry more.
-Okay. -So just leave that right there.
[Andrew] This cloud's, like, not moving even.
[Heather] Oh, my God.
Oh, I just found a crab!
[shrieks] Oh! Where'd he go?
-Oh, here he is! Here he is! Here he is! -Oh!
[Heather] Okay, this is it. This guy's not going away.
Hey! Oh! Yeah. Right there, yeah.
Okay, maybe I'll freak him out.
Look, I'm gonna run him into you. Whoa!
Get-- Oh, oh! [bleep] Get it!
-Did you get ahold of him? Yeah! -Yeah!
[Heather] Hey, buddy.
-[Heather whoops] -Good find, dude.
[Heather] All right!
We caught a crab!
It's a good sized crab.
Ooh, look at those claws. They look delicious.
-Oh, yeah, he's big. -[Heather] But we can't cook him.
-[Heather] We need fire. -[Andrew] Yeah.
Whatever it takes, guys. Whatever it takes.
[Rachel] Candice has volunteered to do fire duty.
So Justin and I decide
to go see if there's any goodies left behind on the boat
that we missed the first time
that will help us to get food.
Look here.
What do you got?
Looks kind of like an old balloon.
If it's drugs, I'm not the one who found this.
Oh, d--
This is actually a swim cap.
-A what? -And then we got some goggles.
Would they work?
Yeah, I mean, I won't be able to equalize them.
So, like, going deep would be difficult.
But I could, just, like, try to flood them or something.
[Justin] The initial time that we investigated the boat,
we did not look at it thoroughly.
Because we were distracted by the pelican.
So let's just, like, every...
[Rachel] Every inch, like, comb through it.
[Justin] I don't know what we could use this for.
[Rachel] The life ring?
It'd be, like, a flotation thing if we ever have to make a raft.
We were sticking our heads
into these dark, mosquito-infested holes,
just seeing if there's anything we left behind
Is that metal?
-[Justin] This could be a weight of some sort. -Yeah.
[Justin] There is a motor part of some sort that's very heavy
which seems to be valuable
because we continue using rocks that break
on items to try and hammer them in.
And this is a solid piece of steel.
[Rachel] Hell, yeah.
-[Justin] Oh, dog. -What?
[Rachel] Oh, my gosh!
[Justin] Lo and behold, it's a hatchet, which is huge!
It's literally cutting-edge.
So we got a hammer, we got an axe.
[Rachel] That'll make things much easier
if we, like, I don't know, catch a caiman or something.
She's got high hopes.
[Justin] All right, you see anything else?
-[Rachel] Mm-mm. -Okay, let's get moving.
[grunting]
Let's go check out this trap and see what happened out there last night.
I don't think any of us slept much.
And it's been a busy week.
It's been a really, really hard-working week.
So today, the main objective is the pig.
Oh, [bleep].
[Kerra] That [bleep] walked around it.
[Bulent] Wow.
It definitely was here.
-That's its footstep right there. -[Kerra] Yeah.
-So... -Oh, brother.
Let's fix that.
Damn!
The pig went through it.
But it didn't go through the snare the way we wanted.
It went around and knocked a couple of things.
The funnel was working. What we created is good.
I just don't know if the width of it is not good.
[Na'im] I spent quite a bit of time with wild boar.
And it was somewhat apparent to me that
the snare was set very high.
Would it make sense to put
one high and one low
right adjacent to each other instead of having them in two different locations?
Just because you kind of want to get it to trip over a bit?
That's a scenario that won't work.
I don't know if it's, like, a testosterone thing
or it's, like, Bulent and Na'im are kind of in battle with each other.
What I was saying is, like, just have 'em right next to each other.
We had it last time, didn't we?
No, no, no. They were spaced apart.
I'm saying put 'em almost directly on each other.
Well, for Bulent, this is very little space to be involved.
This is as good as it gonna get.
[Na'im] Uh... I'll take five, man.
It is making me less enthusiastic to participate.
[Kerra] It's like a pissing contest between the boys now.
[grunts]
And I'm just in the middle.
[Bulent] It's never about trying to prove I'm better than anybody.
How I feel and what others feel,
that's completely irrelevant in my world.
Some [bleep] needs to get done.
Gonna shut up and get it done. There ain't nothing to it.
You survive or you don't.
All right.
We'll see.
[birds chirping]
I'm gonna go see if there's any beach to explore, hopefully.
Okay, I'll be right here.
-Let me know what you need. -Okay.
[Rachel] I'm looking around at my surroundings
and I see our boat, which is supposed to be 100 yards that way,
is making its way towards the ocean.
Yikes.
I have a moment of panic
'cause I remember that we left that life-preserver on the boat.
And I'm gonna kick myself for days if we don't get it.
[grunts]
[panting]
So I grab the life-preserver and...
[grunts]
Ow.
I think that the water is going to be overhead.
But it actually ends up only being a couple of feet deep.
[breathing heavily]
Okay.
I feel a jolt of pain
and I am terrified that I may have done some real damage.
[exhales]
I'm glad I didn't dive.
That was the first instinct. Oh!
I look back and I can see that the boat
is almost out to the ocean already.
So I'm glad that I was there when I was
and that I didn't hesitate to go after that life-preserver.
[sighs wearily]
[Candice] Oh, my God! You had to go in for that?
[Rachel chuckling] I did.
And then when I went to jump in,
I hit the bottom hard,
and, like, my leg, like, hyperextended and it hurts so bad.
-Are you okay? -I think so, we'll see.
[Justin] Rachel hurt her knee.
It's a bit of a concern but I will do
everything in my capacity to carry Rachel forward.
[Candice] Oh, thank you for getting that for us.
-Thank you, definitely. -Okay, come warm up in front of the fire.
-[Rachel sighs] -You need it.
[waves splashing]
We're looking for something to make fire.
Scavenging the beach,
trying to find something useful to keep us in this game.
-Hey! I found another toothbrush! -[Andrew] Oh, perfect.
Well, I don't know if it's useful or not.
But, it sure is quirky.
[imitating Tom Hanks] Wilson!
[Heather] Pollution's a horrible thing.
It's bad for our planet.
But when you're castaway, this stuff is gold.
-I don't know what that is. -[Heather] Look what I found!
-Sweet! -You know what this mean?
Something in it?
Of course, but you know what might be in it?
-What? -Something flammable.
Oh, God! That'd be amazing!
Oh, [bleep]!
Just found another lighter.
Look what I found.
A [bleep] lighter again!
-[both cheer] -Does it work?
Does it light? Does it light?
No, but it does have a small piece of flint.
But it's more than the last lighter we had.
I still have the striker
from the old one from the jungle.
If we use that flint to this striker...
Please work.
Oh, my God! Please tell me you're the captain that's gonna save this ship.
[Andrew] Please work.
I'm trying to break them in this lighter.
Just have to be able to get to the flint inside.
Oh, crap. This piece is tiny.
Tiny, tiny, tiny.
Oof, this smells strong.
Get on the gas!
Smell that.
-I can smell it from here. -[Heather] That gasoline?
[Heather] That's gonna save and come in clutch
for us making a fire.
-[Andrew] So why don't you-- -[Patrick] I don't think you should do that on your leg.
-Okay. Yeah. Good call. -Let's...
-put this board down for safety here. -Yeah.
[Andrew] Let's get a extra big piece of husk under
for your grip.
Immediately move the bundle from here to the ground
and start adding husk gently on top.
Kind of spark a piece that tiny.
On this tiny little spindle.
-[Heather] It's working? -[Andrew] No.
[Andrew] If I don't get fire with these two tiny, little pieces on my fingertips,
we're done.
The weight of the world is literally on my shoulders.
Put hands over here to block the wind.
Make sure you get your hands away as fast as possible if it goes...
[sighs wearily]
[exhales]
[all exclaiming]
[Heather] Oh, my God!
Put hands over here to block the wind.
Make sure you get your hands away as fast as possible if it goes...
-Here it goes. -[all exclaiming]
-[bleep] -[Andrew] Let's not smother.
-Oh, my God! -Can I just put small sticks?
-[Patrick] Nice, nice. Tipi style, tipi style. -[Heather] Right.
-We're having dinner! -[Heather] Oh, my God!
[Heather] I'm gonna be warm tonight. I'm not gonna shiver.
-[Andrew] Oh, my head is-- -There's so much going on right now.
[Andrew] Okay, all right. Firewood, firewood. Let's go.
Whoo!
[Heather] Oh, this is so awesome. This is the best feeling.
Yesterday, I thought it was the end of the world for me.
Now, I'm literally looking out at one of the most beautiful scenes.
We came out here with nothing.
We started fire with garbage.
-Literally. -Literally. Garbage!
Just like... [clicks tongue, grunts]
This is what we needed to be able to thrive here.
Uh, fire's a necessity.
And this is a huge turning point for all of us.
[Patrick grunts]
Oh, my God, you guys.
[Patrick] It's always darkest before the dawn.
[Heather] I just can taste the crab now, actually.
Two dry traps. Not a good sign.
I'll hold off putting it back in till we can put some bait in it.
[Kerra] Our firewood situation is really scarce around here.
It's getting a little concerning.
'Cause we have to hike further up every day.
And the river prawn diet,
it's just not quite enough.
[Na'im sighs] You all right?
-Tired. -Yeah?
[yawns]
I'm on low motivation today for whatever reason, yeah.
[Bulent] You said you're low on motivation. What does that mean?
-What does it mean? -Yeah.
Just one of those days for me.
[Bulent] If you try to live your life
with motivation, you will fail every time.
Motivation go up and down.
You live your life with discipline. You got [bleep] to do.
You get the [bleep] up and do it. There ain't nothing to it.
And there ain't nothing gonna stop you from doing it.
If you try to do with motivation,
you're gonna fail every time.
There's this sort of tendency to pontificate and give a lot of life advice.
And, you know, like, I get, like,
he's aggro, or whatever the [bleep] he's got going on.
But if you don't know how to talk to people,
then, like, communication skills are something you need to work on.
And that's the difference between the people who make [bleep] happen in life
and who can't.
Discipline. There ain't nothing to it.
And that's Bulent's TED Talk.
[laughs]
[Kerra] The boys have this weird contention
and I think being a woman in this situation,
um, is probably needed.
You're out here, in the suck.
-[Na'im] Yeah. -It's totally understandable to not feel motivated
but you're still doing things.
So it's not like
-you're lacking, you know? -[Na'im] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[Kerra] It's like living in Groundhog Day.
It's the same day over and over again.
Which is, like, kind of maddening.
[Rachel] So my knee is actually very sore.
It kind of hurts to straighten it.
Um, and it's definitely pretty swollen,
so I made myself a little makeshift brace.
Hopefully, that helps alleviate things.
I'm trying to kind of take it easy.
But yes, I'm still in it. I'm not going anywhere.
But it's definitely frustrating.
[captivating instrumental music playing]
[Candice] I'm looking for hermit crabs. I found the first one.
If you're quiet,
you can hear them
running over the rocks so I'm just trying to listen for movement.
[whispering] There's another one.
Rachel got hurt and I need to make sure that
she has enough calories.
She's going through almost the same
mental and physical constraints that I went through
when I was in Zambia and I didn't complete that challenge.
Knowing that I can go out
and harvest more food for us,
it makes me feel good that I'm giving us all what we need
to be strong and make it to day 21.
Think we have enough for... for dinner tonight.
[pensive music playing]
[squawking]
So I got this rock, a big piece of metal.
-[Heather] Oh, yeah, good job. -And this hermit crab.
Oh, wow, we got another crab.
Fantastic.
Last 24 hours feel almost like 21 days
with all of the highs and lows in such a short period of time.
That'd be good for cooking fillets.
You guys wanna tend fire, I'm gonna go look for more resources.
[Heather] Yeah.
[Patrick] Trying to see what the tide dragged in.
Start collecting food
so that we can food up.
The tide's pretty low.
This is a great opportunity to get things left behind.
Oh, holy [bleep]!
[dramatic music playing]
Holy [bleep]!
This is crazy!
Oh, my gosh! Everyone's gonna freak out!
Yo!
Oh, my God!
Look at the size of this fish.
[roaring]
[Heather] That's awesome. That's a lot of fish!
When Patrick walks back with the biggest fish I've seen out here...
What kind do you think that is?
-[Patrick] Uh-huh. -[Andrew] Yeah.
[Heather] They're beautiful. They're actually a bucket list fish.
So that's an amazing catch.
[Patrick speaking]
-[Heather speaking] -[Patrick] Whoo!
Our little team, our little tribe,
has had such ups and downs.
But now, the game has changed.
And we are winning.
[Andrew speaking]
[Heather speaking]
-[Andrew speaking] -[Heather] Yeah.
I'm gonna come over here and take half of it off.
-And carve it up and then put the other half back on. -Okay.
[Heather grunts]
When I cook it, I'm able to fillet it three times,
just on each side.
That is six huge portions of meat.
Over here, be eating blackened fish
with my best buddies.
Doing pretty good.
[Heather] You want anymore?
[Patrick] No, I'm full, thank you.
-[Heather] That's a lot of fish, huh? -Yeah.
[Heather chuckles]
That is dope.
[Candice] Night 8, and we are having hermit crab for dinner.
-[Rachel] Mmm! -And we have decided to boil them.
-So-- -And that means
that they're being boiled
in the toilet that we found.
How appetizing!
It's actually really gross.
I mean, we're boiling it but...
-when you think about it... -Boiled or not, like,
yeah, I just, I don't even wanna think about it.
[pensive music playing]
[Candice speaking]
[Justin speaking]
[Rachel speaking]
[Justin speaking]
[munching]
[Candice speaking]
[Rachel speaking]
[Candice speaking]
[Candice] Last night when I went to bed,
I swallowed and felt, like, this sharp pain
immediately on the right side of my face.
And then it just felt like
instantly, my face started swelling up.
If you guys can see that over there,
it's like throbbing pain behind my ear,
down my neck,
and onto my cheek.
[Justin] Medic, medic, Candice is requesting medical attention.
[medic speaking]
I don't know if I was bit by something.
I didn't feel anything. It just came outta nowhere.
Oh!
[medic speaking]
[Candice softly] Okay.
[Candice] We're waiting to see if the swelling goes down.
And if not, they're gonna take me out of here.
Candice was, like, concerned about a bite
last night, and...
[Roy] Yeah.
Right there!
[Heather] [bleep] Plot twist!
Saltwater crocodiles!
[narrator] The CRR, or Castaway Rescue Rating,
weighs each group's level of skill, ingenuity and problem-solving
to predict their team's odds of being rescued off the island
after 21 days.
After arriving at a new beach location...
[sobbing] This is hell!
Quitting's not an option.
...Heather, Andrew and Patrick finally have fire...
-[Patrick exclaiming] -[Heather] Oh, my God!
-[grunting] -[Patrick] Oh, holy [bleep]!
[narrator] ...and their first significant protein of the challenge.
Blackened fish. Doing pretty good.
Their Castaway Rescue Rating rises significantly
from 52% to 70%.
For Bulent, Kerra and Na'im...
The first action should be beefing up the tunnel.
...repeated efforts to snare a wild pig...
I'm saying put 'em almost directly on each other.
I know what you're saying. It will just go, make it go that way.
...have only yielded tension within the group.
This is as good as it can get.
It's like a pissing contest between the boys now.
And I'm just in the middle.
[narrator] Their Castaway Rescue Rating drops from 68%
to 59%.
Candice, Rachel and Justin are scraping the beach for food.
[Candice] We do what we gotta do to get to day 21.
[retches]
-[Rachel grunts] -[narrator] But an unexpected injury...
That really hurt.
...and a potentially dangerous medical situation...
...threaten to send two of them from the challenge.
[Candice] We're waiting to see if the swelling goes down, and if not,
they're gonna take me out of here.
That's just not fair.
[narrator] As a result, their CRR plummets
from 54% to 33%.
[Lauren speaking]
[narrator] Meningitis is an inflammation of the membrane
surrounding the brain and spinal cord.
It can lead to stroke, brain damage or paralysis.
Well, it's not helping. I feel like it's still so swollen.
You're still in the fight mentally.
I really hope this blows over.
And if it does, it's testimony.
Like, it just makes that finish line that much sweeter.
It's just scary 'cause it's around my face and neck
and I don't know what it is. It hurts so bad.
It's a solid 10.
And it's just an aching throb, right?
Like, underneath my right ear, and it doesn't go away.
And that's why I'm scared.
[pensive music playing]
[Candice speaking]
It's swollen bit and swell down
so I get really concerned about it.
Her cheek's a little bit swollen.
But I don't see no bite.
You don't see a bite?
You don't see a sting?
It's not red but she's in a lot of pain.
Okay.
[Roy speaking]
[Lauren] I know it's hard, Candice,
but we just don't have the resources here right now to treat you
in the field safely.
-So we're gonna... -[Candice] I know.
gonna have to medically tap you
from the challenge.
[sobbing]
-I'm sorry. -[Rachel] Don't cry, Candice. It's not your fault.
I'm so upset 'cause I came so far
-since my last challenge... -[Rachel] You did.
You came so far, dude.
And this just came out of nowhere.
[sniffling] I'm devastated.
I don't wanna leave my team like this.
I think Justin will do great.
I'm worried about Rachel.
-Rachel, I'm sorry. -[Rachel] It's not your fault, all right?
[Justin] Don't be sorry.
I hate leaving her behind.
[Rachel sobbing] I love you so much.
You just gotta get better. It's okay.
And I'm so proud of you for how far you came.
'Cause it wasn't easy.
I am absolutely heart-broken for her
because I know how badly she wanted this.
Looking at this challenge without her right now, it's pretty daunting.
Even though we're jerks...
[Justin] It's unfortunate, losing Candice.
She's so knowledgeable.
Uh, has been hunting and fishing in her entire life.
[Candice] Love you guys.
[Justin] Definitely we're taking a hit collectively as a team.
-Bye. -Yeah.
[sobbing]
I didn't wanna let my family back home down.
And so, the second time failure sucks worse than the first time.
[narrator] Candice was eventually diagnosed with a severe bacterial infection.
But the source could not be determined.
[sobbing]
She was treated with antibiotics and made a full recovery.
[Justin] What's up?
My brain is so all over the place right now.
[Justin] As far as the team, it's myself and Rachel.
She's also injured, so I really hope
she, uh, pushes through as well.
If not, I get stuck out here alone.
You're great and all
-but... [chuckles] it's not the same. -It's all good.
It's honestly, like, so hard to comprehend that she's not here anymore.
And it's wild to me, like, how close she and I have gotten
in just nine days.
Like, honestly, she's a huge part of the reason
why I'm still here in the first place.
I'm absolutely gutted.
