16x01 - Blood and Money

[bunniefuu]

So, it's Tuesday.

I fly out tomorrow to Mexico for
Naked and Afraid, which is so crazy.

We actually play Naked
and Afraid on the TVs

in the ICU rooms.

And I always love it when
my patients have it on.

I really cannot believe that my
patients might be watching me.

I'll walk in and we can watch me on
Naked and Afraid together. Pretty wild.

- While they're naked in the bed. Yeah.
- [Mylee] Yes!

- [both laugh]
- [woman] Perfect.

Got two days left.
Packing all the calories.

It's definitely gonna be awkward walking
up to somebody butt naked the first time.

I'm a banker,

but when I get off
work for the day,

I'm always out there,
starting fires, building shelters,

drinking some water that
might be questionable.

[indistinct]

Getting prepared
for the challenge.

- So, you think I'm gonna make it out there?
- 50-50.

I know this challenge
will be tough,

but it's not gonna be the
toughest challenge ever faced.

In 2006, I was in a
terrible car accident.

Broke my neck, I
cracked my skull,

and lost my memory.

Definitely taught me that
if I can go through that,

I can survive anything.

So, I wanna prove to
myself that I've got the skills

to survive and
finish this challenge.

Naked and Afraid,
I'm coming for you.

[coyotes howling]

I haven't seen anything
yet that is really worrying me.

But I know it's probably
just around the corner.

I'm the biggest Naked
and Afraid fan and

I've been dreaming
to do this for years.

I've taught myself fire making,
shelter building, water purification.

From switching to being a fan to
an actual survivalist feels amazing.

I'm a huge fan of
Naked and Afraid.

It is such a surreal feeling to realize
that I'm not watching somebody else do it,

it's me this time.

It is the wildest thing.

[narrator] Naked and
Afraid fans, Mylee and John

Will be attempting to survive 14
days in Cabo Corrientes, Mexico,

where rugged jungle and sheer
cliffs meet the Pacific Ocean.

Here they will endure extreme
temperatures, relentless mosquitoes,

and need to be on the
high alert for jaguars,

scorpions, and the most
venomous snake in Mexico,

The Mojavi Green Rattlesnake.

All right, looks
like this is my stop.

Okay, I guess we're here.

It's time to get naked.

[John] Being naked
in front of my partner,

it's gonna make for a
awkward first impression.

I have been waiting to do this.

I am ready.

I feel very comfortable
being naked.

My next door neighbor has had to tell me
twice to put clothes on in my own house.

But I work with
nudity a lot in my job,

and it just feels
like no big deal.

Let's find my partner.

[rustling]

[John] Can't wait
to meet my partner.

Hopefully, she's ready
to survive, like me.

[narrator] John is resilient and has learned
survival skills, such as fire making,

water purification
and shelter building.

He starts the challenge with s
Primitive Survival Rating of 6.2.

I'm definitely keeping in mind that
there are scorpions around here.

The thing that I'm most worried about
is definitely a centipede in my vag*na.

I really saw a lot of that in the
ED in Hawaii, when I worked there.

So, yes, I'm concerned
mainly my genitals

and the bug situation out here.

But I love to fish,
I love to hunt.

I know how to find crayfish.

And I have a really
strong mental game.

And when you combine
those things together,

I think it could make up for some of
the survival experience that I don't have.

[narrator] Mylee has an
extensive medical background,

and a tenacious attitude,

but limited primitive skills.

She begins her 14-day challenge

with a Primitive
Survival Rating of 5.9.

[gasps] I can see
another naked person.

Oh, my God. Hey, there.

Hey! Hi, I'm Mylee.

Hey, I'm John.

- Can we hug?
- Absolutely.

- [Mylee] Nice to meet you.
- Very great to meet you.

- Are you ready for 14 days?
- Absolutely.

There is no way
I will accept less.

- Ready to get started?
- I was born ready.

- Awesome. I think I see our bags over here.
- [John] Awesome.

[John] I just met
Mylee. She seems great.

Really enthusiastic
to be out here.

She's determined to be out
here for 14 days, just like me.

And we're gonna be
awesome partners.

[Mylee] this is my
machete blade.

- Wanna see it? It's pretty nice.
- [John] Oh, yeah.

What you got?

- I have got my hand shovel.
- Very nice.

- [gasps]
- Yeah. There's a pot.

- And... Looks like we have fire starter.
- Fire starter.

- [John] Right?
- [Mylee] That's awesome.

- Also have the map.
- [Mylee] Get the map. Okay.

All right. So, it looks
like we're right here.

And we need to get over here.

Uh, looks like it's gonna
be a rock formation

and we have a water source.

- So, that's gonna definitely be helpful.
- [Mylee] Yeah.

[John] All right, now we're gonna
have to watch out for jaguars.

- Also rattlesnakes. We need to keep an eye out for those.
- Oh, yep. Yep.

- Well, are you ready to do this?
- Yes, let's do it.

- I'm so ready.
- Let's go.

[narrator] John and Mylee will hike
three miles through thick vegetation

and uneven rocky terrain,
and crushing heat and humidity.

In this environment,
dehydration is a threat.

So, they must navigate quickly
to reach their water source

at the Los Horcones river.

[John] So, I am a banker.

- [Mylee] You're a b...
- [John] Yeah.

[Mylee] Did not see that coming.

Very nice. I love
to be surprised.

- It's very good.
- Yeah.

[Mylee] Can you tell me
where your accent is from?

Um, moved last year
to Northern Alabama.

- Okay.
- That's what I... Okay, that was my guess.

Gotcha. So maybe I'm hearing
a little Alabama. Very cool.

- I'm an ICU nurse.
- [John] Oh, cool.

Okay, so I just met John.

My first impressions
are, I'm stoked.

He's from the southern area,

so he's gonna know all
sorts of different animals

which is actually pretty badass.

So, I'm pretty excited.

What are your goals out here?
What do you wanna do out here?

[John] You know, I
wanna prove to myself that,

you know, I'm not
just a couch fan.

I wanna actually be able to do what I've
seen everybody else doing, you know?

[Mylee] Right, that when
we're criticizing what we see,

like, we can back it up.

- [chuckles] Right.
- Like, "We've done it."

- Yes, okay. got it.
- [John] Absolutely.

- Lots of loose rocks here.
- [Mylee] Okay.

Where's the water?
We gotta find... water.

[John] I feel like we've
been out here for hours.

Hopefully, it's over this hill.

[Mylee] Yeah, I'm
getting thirsty. [laughs]

It's super-hot out here. So,
we're gonna need to hydrate

and get to some water finally.

- [John] I see water.
- [Mylee] Get out! [laughs]

Yes!

- [John] Right there.
- [Mylee] Awesome. Okay. Okay. Yes.

- Yes. Here we go.
- [John] All right. We gotta get down that way.

[Mylee] Here we go.

Is there a lot of water?

- Oh, yeah. It's flowing.
- [Mylee] Yes!

Oh, it's beautiful.

-Oh, my God. Can you
believe this [bleep] -Holy [bleep]

This is awesome.

- Yeah.
- Look, we've got running water over here,

there's like, a place where
we could maybe fish here.

I love our location. We've
got all kinds of water.

Pools, ponds, it's running.

We should have everything
that we need here.

So, yeah. We need
to find where we can...

stay where we're not
gonna be interrupting, like,

- is wildlife gonna come down here?
- Right,

Um...

That little overhang right
there could potentially

- be a shelter.
- Yeah. Let's clear this out,

- a little.
- [John] Yeah, let's clear it out some.

Yep.

[John] I think there's some
animal prints under here though.

I think there's
some type of cat.

- [Mylee] Oh, [bleep]
- [John] Maybe not a big cat.

- [Mylee] Yeah. I see it. I see a little toe.
- [John] Right there.

- [Mylee] Yep. Yep.
- [John] There's more over here.

[narrator] Cabo Corrientes is
also home to smaller wildcats,

such as the ocelot
and Mexican Bobcat,

that shelter in caves
in the heat of the day.

What they lack in size, they
make up for in strategic attacks,

targeting sensitive areas,
such as the neck, throat or groin.

[Mylee] Let's see if
there's something better.

[John] Yeah. Option number one.

[Mylee] Yes. Like, you know,
house hunt. You gotta be smart.

- Look at this.
- [John] Oh, wow.

Ow.

So, out of these
two shelters, I mean,

one, we saw animal
prints in that one.

- Yeah, that's...
- You know, some type of cat's

gonna get pissed
that we're in its home.

This one, there's
less cleaning to do.

And, you know, it looks
like, as far as the roof goes,

it's gonna be a little
more substantial...

Definitely. It's also
got three sides.

- Yeah.
- I mean, we've kind of got a built in shelter right there.

That's more open.

So, yeah. I think, just as
long as we plan for the fact that

other animals are
gonna wanna share that,

and we make our
presence known...

- Right.
- And, you know, pee around here.

- Or just make it obvious it's ours.
- Yeah, like a... pee-rimeter.

Yes! A "pee-rimeter". [laughing]

- Sounds good to me.
- All right. Let's do it.

I'm excited about the cave.

It's got a roof.

If it rains, we are actually
gonna be able to stay dry.

And it's a prefab home. The
work's mostly done for us.

- Watch out for snakes, dude.
- Yeah.

All right.

Looks pretty decent...

- for our first pass.
- Yeah. All right.

It's getting hot out here.

Do you wanna maybe make a fire?

Yeah.

And then, I can work on
trying to gather firewood.

[Mylee] Yeah.

We need fire so we
can start getting water.

We can worry about food later.
I'm worried about water now.

[frustrated groan]

[John] Definitely
time for water.

Starting to feel a
little bit dehydrated.

- [sighs]
- [John] How's it going?

[Mylee] Lighting
real easy, it's just...

getting it to stay.

Try um...

Try a little...

Get a little on the pile.

[indistinct]

All right.

- Oh, there we go.
- Yeah?

- Oh, my gosh. Beautiful.
- All right, we gotta...

Gonna need some sticks.

- Gonna...
- [Mylee] You want it right here or over here?

Move it right here.

- Think it might be kind of comfortable... There we go.
- [Mylee] Beautiful fire.

Beautiful fire,
John. Oh, my God!

Beautiful.

That's a huge deal. Hey,
people go days without that.

All right. Time to
boil some water.

[Mylee] John, he started
a fire almost immediately.

It's a huge fire.

I'm super excited 'cause I know
now we can start to get water,

we can start to get hydrated.

It is super important
that we boil this water

because we definitely don't want
to get taken out of this challenge

because of the bacteria
that could be in the water

if we drink it untreated.

- Crazy.
- [gasps] First water.

[John] Oh, yeah.

- [Mylee] How is...
- Oh, it's good.

[Mylee] Oh, yes.

My... Look it's beautiful.

Fire, water.

First day. Come on.

- Some people do not get that.
- [John] Right?

So, I'm gonna go try to see
if I can find some firewood.

- [Mylee] All righty.
- [John grunts]

John! There's a snake down here.

- [John] What?
- [Mylee] Yes.

Holy [bleep]

John! There's a snake down here.

- [John] What?
- [Mylee] Yes.

Holy [bleep]

Jesus! Damn it!

[sighs]

What was he doing though?
He was coming out for water?

[John] You see it?

Yeah, it was right there.

- [John] Okay.
- Maybe like,

this long.

Like a...

Like yellow, like, almost
like a garden snake.

I have a goal to
k*ll and eat a snake.

I actually got
super close today.

So, they're definitely here.

And I'm gonna keep
trying to catch one.

I'm gonna get in there,

and I'm just gonna, because we're
gonna be laying right on the ground,

- I'm gonna clean it out a lot more, okay?
- Okay.

And then, I don't know

- if you wanna see what kind of brush we wanna lay on?
- Yeah.

Found some river cane.

- So we can use that to lay on.
- Awesome! That's perfect.

- Like brushes, yes.
- Yeah.

[John] I don't think we're in
for a comfortable night's sleep.

[Mylee] No, but that's okay.

- [John chuckles]
- [Mylee] We expected that.

All right. So, it
is our first night.

We're in our
cave-home. It's not bad.

- Right? What do you think?
- Definitely got a roof over our head.

We got fire, we
got water, shelter.

Tomorrow, we'll
work on some food.

- So, yeah.
- Needs to happen. We'll find something.

[owl hooting]

-[Mylee] Okay.
[chuckles] -[John] Okay.

[indistinct conversation]

[Mylee] Did you sleep at
all last night? Like, at all?

Oh, I got no sleep.

Yeah, I got couple minutes.

Like, little five minutes,
like, three times maybe.

Last night was our
first night in our shelter.

I got a tiny bit of sleep,
John didn't, I don't think.

[John] Think I was
getting bit by bugs.

[Mylee] I don't think that
they like me as much.

I ate a lot of raw garlic
before I came out here.

- 'cause I heard that sometimes, that can help.
- [John] Yeah.

Today, I wanna go look for frogs

and crayfish.

- So, I'm gonna go check over there.
- [John] Okay.

So many tadpoles.
[whispering] Where are the frogs?

Hoping to find a crawfish.

But it doesn't look
like anybody's home.

Eat a [bleep] there's
a fish right there.

All right, well,
there's fish in here.

Just gonna have to
figure out how to catch it.

[John] I found a crawfish.

[bleep]

It's so frustrating
that it got away.

But now that I saw it,

I'm really hopeful
that there's a lot more.

Things are looking promising.

Did you get any froggies?

-No? -[Mylee] Fish.

- But they're gonna be really tough to catch, I think.
- Yeah?

[John] I saw a crawfish.

[Mylee] Was he big?

- [John] It was decent.
- [Mylee] All right. Good.

I just wanna see what
they're like, what they look like,

so I can start to get a read on
how I'm gonna try to catch one.

Oh, son of a b*tch. I see one.

[bleep] He came
onto me. He was like,

trying to get back.
It was so close.

Damn it. [chuckles]
I touched him.

[pants] Okay, they're catchable.

I can see 'em underwater.

Damn.

Oh, his claw. His...

They eject their claws when
they're trying to get away.

So, he shot his claw up
at me when I grabbed him,

But...

I can definitely catch him. I
got super close to him that time.

I can get close there.

It's my little
consolation prize.

But, you know, you
have to start somewhere.

- [John] This claw looks delicious.
- [Mylee laughing] Yeah.

- [John] It's turning red.
- [Mylee] Meaty.

I will definitely allow this to be
counted as us eating protein officially

- on our 14 days, okay?
- All right.

- [Mylee] I wanted to eat meat.
- Man,

turned nice and red.

I don't accept that this is
the last protein we'll get, but...

for first, I accept it.

[John] I'm very thankful
to have Mylee as a partner.

She's a go-getter,
she's out there hunting,

she's come back
with a crawfish claw.

So, she's a great partner.

And I hope I can
catch something too.

- It's freaking delicious.
- [John] Yeah? Need more of them.

[Mylee] We need... I need
to catch more of those.

It's like lobster.

[John] That is so good.

It's a good day.

[Mylee] Yeah.

Just so you know.

[Mylee] Last night was not bad.

We had our fire going all night.

It was a lot better. I was
way more comfortable.

I actually slept for a while.

- [Mylee] Not bad for night two.
- Yeah.

I'm gonna go gather firewood.

Okay, I'm gonna come join you. I
know where there's a bunch of good...

- [John] Okay.
- Driftwood over there.

- This is your pile here?
- [John] Yeah.

Okay.

[John] I found a frog.

- [Mylee] What?
- I found a frog.

- Hold on.
- There he is.

- Right below... You see him?
- [Mylee] I see him.

- [John] I got him. Yeah.
- [Mylee exclaims] No! Shut up.

Oh, my God. Yes!

Dude! Yes!

-This is what I live for!
[laughing] -That is what I live...

[deep voice] This
is what I live for!

[laughs] Oh, my
God. That's awesome.

Oh, look at them
nice, meaty legs.

I finally k*lled something.

It's not anything big but...

I'm more of a
survivalist now I think.

[Mylee] How much calories
do you think we will get

per frog leg?

Half a chicken nugget maybe?

Not even, right?

It's like... Yeah, maybe.

And maybe half a
chicken nugget without

- any of the fat or the fried coating or the dipping sauce.
- Yeah.

- Really good. This tastes like chicken.
- Yeah.

I can feel a little
more pep in my step

after taking in some food.

It wasn't a whole lot,

but every little bit really
does make a difference.

This is a pretty good day three.

We got protein and
we're starting to figure out

- where they are now.
- [John] Yeah.

We've done better than some of the
survivalists I've seen in the past, for sure.

[Mylee] And neither
one of us has cried yet.

That's no small feat. No crying.

- [John] I went off and cried earlier.
- You did cry.

Okay, I thought I heard
something. I wasn't sure, that's why...

- [John] It was tears of joy from k*lling...
- I don't wanna bring it up.

- Oh! Okay. Okay.
- [John] Yeah.

Really exhilarating to realize
that we are actually on day three,

and we've eaten.

I've seen a lot of fighting, I've seen
a lot of breakdowns by day three.

We have not hit that yet.

And so, every minute
we get further, I feel like,

"Yeah, we're nailing this."

I think I have frog
between my teeth.

[John] Lucky.

We know there's animals
in the water out here.

Crawfish, shrimp, fish.

So today, I'm gonna
work on the crawfish trap.

[Mylee] We have to pound
out a lot of these reeds.

And it'll flatten them out.

And then, John can
weave them into his basket,

which will help the shrimp or the
crawfish or fish from getting out.

[John] Thank you.

- Dude, I'm invested in this fish basket. I wanna eat.
- [both chuckle]

This is gonna catch crawfish, which
is all I can think about are those soft...

- What if they're so many that we can't even fit them all...
- Stop.

- Just stop.
- Yeah.

[Mylee] This is
gonna work. Definitely.

I'm pretty much complete,
at least with the outside cone.

I still need to do
the inside cone.

Cone faces inwards.

So, it's a small opening.

They'll swim into it,

but they just can't figure
out how to swim out of it.

All right, time to bait
it up and throw it out.

[grunts]

Found a coconut.

Oh, yeah. It's rotten.
It's definitely no good.

We can't eat it
because it's rotten.

But crawfish love coconut meat.

Is it set? Is it in?

- [John] It's in there.
- [Mylee] Yes!

All right.

-[groaning] -[Mylee]
That's a milestone!

That was a big project.

[John] Yeah, I hope it pays off.

[Mylee] The bugs are
all over my vag*na now.

They did not care for days.

But now, they're like...

all over me.

[John] Maybe on day one, one laid
an egg and now they're all hatching.

[Mylee] Oh, my God.
I hate you so much.

I hate you. [chuckles]

See anything?

Nothing.

Definitely a disappointment. I had high
hopes that I'd have something for breakfast.

Gonna move the fish
trap basket a little bit.

Put it in a different spot.

See if that does better.

[Mylee] I'm feeling hungry
and weak this morning.

And I can definitely feel that I
haven't eaten in a couple days,

and I feel really run down.

Damn it.

They're so fast.

There's a frog under this stick.

I don't know how
I'm gonna get him.

But I'm starving.

Nope. [bleep]

There goes dinner.

[Mylee] It's day eight.

John's going to
pull our breakfast

with his fish trap.

Let's see.

- [Mylee] What do we got?
- All the goodies we've got this morning.

Falling apart.

[Mylee] No!

- All right.
- [John] Wow, nothing.

- [Mylee] Nada.
- That sucks.

[Mylee] Boo!

Tell you what.

I've criticized,

you know, survivalists
on the show before,

"They should've done this.
They should've did that."

But when you're
actually out here...

- Totally.
- Totally different.

Totally.

So much harder than
it looks. [chuckles]

[thumping]

It's hard [bleep]

We've reached a point where

our food intake is
becoming a lot more limited.

Haven't gotten a
whole lot of sleep.

[sighs] My God.

Sometimes when I'm out trying
to explore a little bit for resources,

maybe start
stumbling a little bit.

You know, I start
to think to myself,

"Man, can I make it to the end?"

I don't have the
energy for this.

[narrator] Nine days
into their challenge,

John and Mylee have consumed
less than 500 calories, combined.

But they've been burning
up to 4000 calories a day.

I can feel my body

trying to adjust to how
little energy I have right now.

[sighs] I just feel drained out.
I feel my heartrate going up.

[sighs]

[panting]

[panting]

Yeah. I gotta drink
a lot more water.

I just got lightheaded
like, so fast.

Mylee doesn't seem
to feel too well today.

She seems exhausted.

I'm worried that, you know,

she's given
everything that she has

and she doesn't
have any more to go.

You know, she talks
about making it to day 14,

but when I see how run down
she's gotten all of a sudden,

it worries me.

I need to get food.

I think that's really gonna help
give her some more energy.

[John] Morning of day ten,

we're definitely at a point
that food is our biggest priority.

Mylee really needs something.

She has no energy.

Okay.

[Mylee gasps] Oh, my
God. We got a shrimp.

He looks delicious.

- [gasps]
- [John] Sweet.

Wow, there's two of them.

Would you look at that?

Super excited to finally we're able to
catch a couple shrimp with my fish trap.

It seems like it's taken
forever to catch something in it.

So, this is a little win.

[Mylee] Shrimpy and delicious.

I feel it picked me up as
soon as it hit my tongue.

[Mylee] Oh, my gosh.
Best protein I've had.

My body was just sputtering
out a little bit without protein,

but I actually felt a little
kick after that one for sure.

That was...

- delicious. That was meaty.
- Yeah.

The shrimp is
great but very small.

Today, we like to be able to find
a more substantial food source.

I'm planning on
going down the river.

Wanna look for fruit.

Crossing my fingers
that we get some.

It's really gonna help out
for the next couple days,

pushing forward to extraction.

So far, not seeing anything.

I really hate to come
back empty handed.

[bleep]

A snake.

It looks like the
snake is in the...

little crevice right there
where the water's dripping.

I have no idea what
kind of snake it is.

Oh, damn, I see him.

I see his little head poke out.

He's tangled up in some roots.

I can't take a swing
at him where he's at.

So I just wait.

All right, it's coming out.

Oh, [bleep]

So, I don't know
what kind of snake it is.

Cut off the head, I
don't think it's poisonous.

Got him.

My biggest k*ll out here.

Hey, Mylee.

We need to get a
good cooking fire going.

No!

Oh, my God. Shut up!

- [John] Yeah.
- I love it.

Oh, my God. You got a snake!

Oh, my God. That's crazy. Okay.

- [John] Oh, yeah.
- Okay. All right.

Let me get this started.

This is the first snake I've
k*lled while I'm out here.

It's the biggest thing I've
k*lled while I'm out here.

It's gonna give us the most meat out
of everything since we've been out here.

It feels amazing.

[Mylee] Look at that.

Snake on the barbie.

This'll be the biggest
meal we've had.

By far.

Cheers.

- Snake. First snake. First snake.
- Whoo!

- It tastes halfway decent.
- Very cool.

Nice k*ll, John. This is
a decent as hell snake.

I appreciate it.

- It's cooked to perfection, I think.
- Oh, my God.

Hopefully, we don't get sick.

It feels awesome to go to
bed with a belly full of snake.

It's full of protein.

And now, all I have is
this like, fire in my gut

for day 14

because I know
that we have this.

[John] Don't drink
that. That's river water.

That's what I said,
I'm boiling water.

[Mylee] Oh, [bleep]

I just took a gulp of unboiled
river water by accident.

[sighs, chuckles]

All right, this is insane.

We just had a third
survivalist show up.

- And came out of nowhere.
- [Mylee chuckles]

[Mylee] I've never
seen this happen.

[John] Skully, would you like to
say something to the people at home?

No?

[Mylee] We both
have an interest in art.

So, we both have really
kind of gotten into doing

little art-y things
while we're out here.

Ancient people used to
memorialize their big kills.

So, I got a claw,
and John k*lled a frog.

People will know of
our triumphs out here.

- [John] Don't drink that. That's river water.
- [Mylee] Oh, [bleep]

So, I accidentally take a
big gulp of unboiled water.

If it's not ideal, definitely it's not
something I would've done on purpose

because it could knock me
out out of this before I hit day 14.

So, I'm getting
a little worried.

- The water.
- [John] How did it taste?

I mean, I didn't
really notice anything.

Kinda worried
about that little gulp.

You know? You never
know what you're swallowing.

Hopefully, nothing
creeps up on her.

Let me know if you
feel a little woozy.

- Day 13?
- [panting excitedly]

- Yeah.
- We made it! But we didn't make it yet.

But we're on day 13.

[John] Right. Have
the last full day here.

Tomorrow will be extracting.

[Mylee] No problems
from the river water at all.

I feel fine.

And so, I'm super happy
that that water didn't do me in.

[John] Nothing,
again, over here.

I don't think anything's gonna be
popping into it in the middle of the day,

so I'm just bringing it
back over to our camp.

We were able to catch
a couple of shrimp with it.

But I realized, it doesn't
always work the way you think

it should work from your couch.

Last night here.

[Mylee] How are you feeling?

Excitement. Uh, sadness.

But I think I'm ready to
get back to civilization.

I'm ready too. I think
I'm a little bit nervous.

But we're gonna get through it.

And I'm so stoked.

Is this or is this not like, the
adventure of your entire life so far?

Definitely.

[John yawns]

- It is day 14.
- What does that mean?

We made it to extraction, and we're
about make it through extraction.

Do you have the map? You wanna
take a look, see where we're headed?

All right, so,

right here,

it looks like probably
the easiest route to follow

in like, the creek system
around, and in through.

- All right.
- Probably the best way.

I'm gonna have a last sip and
let's put out our fire out here.

It's gonna be a long extraction.

There's lots of lagoons and lots
of features we can see on the map.

So, we're not sure
what we're in for.

But we're ready to set off.

- [John] That's sad.
- [Mylee] I know. This fireplace was very good to us.

[John] Mm-hm.

[Mylee] All right. Bye, home.

You were good to us.

[narrator] To complete
their extraction,

Mylee and John will need to swim and
scale a series of lagoons and waterfalls

before hiking two miles
up steep, rocky terrain

to reach their extraction point.

[John] We're gonna try to cross.

[Mylee] All right, let's do it.

Oh, it's chilly.

- [exclaims] Ooh.
- Oh, you okay?

-It's slippery.
[laughs] -You good?

Very slippery.

I guess we can hop right here.

[Mylee] All righty.

It's steep.

Oof. I'm feeling the
no-protein now, John.

- I'm feeling it.
- [John] You all right?

[Mylee panting]

-[John panting] -[Mylee] My
quads are like, almost numb.

It is a climb. It is so steep.

It is, by far, the most physical
part of this challenge for me entirely.

Damn. [sighs]

But this was a bucket list
item of mine for so long.

To finish it means
the world to me.

You got this.

We've gotta be
getting close here.

Oh! [sighs]

-[pants] -[John] It's
opening up some.

Keep your eyes out for a road.

- [Mylee] Oh, there's a road.
- Oh, this is definitely a road.

[Mylee sighs]

Do you see a vehicle?

No, but there's
gotta be one coming.

- This is definitely it.
- I see it. It's coming.

- Stop it.
- It's coming.

- Oh, my God! [laughs]
- Thank God. Ooh, we made it.

Holy [bleep] [laughs]

Oh, my God. Okay.

Let's go. Whoo!

- Oh, my God. You've got some energy now.
- Oh, my God.

I did not have the 100ft
left in me, I swear to God.

But I am enough
to get in this truck.

-Let's go! Let's go!
[laughs] -Let's go.

- We did it!
- [John] Oh, man.

Whoo!

[John] I knew I had the mental
toughness to do this challenge.

But now I know
I've got the skills.

I cannot even describe how proud of
myself I am for completing the challenge.

That's a rite of passage.



- Seems that went by like, the blink of an eye.
- The whole thing.

Leaving now, I realize there's
always more skills I can learn.

[narrator] John dropped 18
pounds during the challenge.

His PSR rises to a 7.4.

I don't know about you,

but I feel like a
real survivalist,

not just a fan now.

I definitely don't
feel like I was,

but now, I feel like I am.

I always thought I was a very
determined, courageous person.

And I proved those
values over and over again

for 14 days.

That just feels amazing to say.

[narrator] Mylee lost 15 pounds.

Her PSR rises to a 7.1.

- [John] Yeah, I'm never gonna forget this experience.
- [Mylee giggles]

Adventure of my life.
Adventure of my life.

[both] Bye, Mexico!
