01x05 - Episode 5

Post by bunniefuu »

Last time on Destination X.

In a thrilling escape game,
Briek and Zeno manage

to rescue Gino.

Together with him, they win exclusive
time in the VIP room of the bus.

My first time.
- Split.

Zeno insists that the information they've won
should not be shared under any circumstances.

Use your power
to mislead them.

And certainly not
with newcomer Jef.

But Zeno has been playing
alongside Emiel for a while

and assures him that he shouldn't worry
under any circumstances.

Emiel and I will simply try
to share every tip with each other.

At the wine estate,
Briek fails to

get hold of the right wine.

Black Mountain is
a new kind of Bulgarian wine.

When he later falls completely
for the deception

and puts his X
in the center of Rome,

he must be the last
to leave the bus in the ranking.

Damn it.
- It's okay.

In the shadow
of the Pula amphitheater,

he sees the bus driving away
with six passengers still on board.

This is Destination X,

a travel program
with ten unknown Flemish people

who have no idea
where they are.

Fancy. Wow.

During an unprecedented road trip
through Europe, they will play games

with one clear goal:
to obtain tips

that tell them more
about their exact location.

But not everything is
what it seems along the way.

That's a boat.
- A boat?

Because besides tips,
deceptions can also cross their path.

Passports. Then it's England.

It's up to them to distinguish:
what is real...

and what is not?

At the end of each episode,
there's the exit

and each candidate must
place their X on the map.

Whoever places their X farthest
from the correct location,

must immediately leave the game.

It's day ten of the journey.

And that's good news
for the six remaining passengers.

They have each succeeded
in their own way.

Surviving the first half of this insane adventure.

Meanwhile, traveling
in a blinded bus

has become a regular part
of their daily routine.

Every day they depart
towards the unknown.

And occasionally, a glimpse
of the veil is lifted.

But then they must
stay awake.

Everyone was tired, because sitting
in that bus for so long can make you extremely drowsy.

But when those windows burst open,
I was immediately awake.

It was also super exciting.

I wanted to be as quiet as possible,
so that I really was the only one.

They could see what was happening outside.

And as if nothing happened, life on the bus continues calmly.

Yes, I'll shave when the bus is moving.
Good idea. Good idea.

I can't stand blood.
I feel so nauseous right now.

Gino, what happened to you?
- It's more under your mouth.

And push. Push against it.
- I've filleted myself.

I'm really going to spit.

Say "spit".
- Spit.

It's gone, see.
- Oh, f*ck. It's a big gash.

Seriously. Really not.
- Half of my chin is off.

There is a loud noise.
- Silence.

Wow.
- Alright.

To start the day,
they are welcomed

by a local beauty with some
non-alcoholic regional drinks.

Good morning.
- Good morning.

Good morning.

Dear passengers, please put away your belongings
and then I will explain today's task.

Yes.
- Okay.

Cheers.
- Cheers. Why not. Damn it.

In the picturesque village
where you are now.

You need to perform three good deeds.
But keep your eyes wide open,

because there are some clear references
to tomorrow's exit location in the village.

There will be clues
about tomorrow's exit in the village.

Ah, so those are tips or something.
- Tips, yes.

And watch the time. Because the team
that can perform the good deeds first,

will get an advantage.

Your task starts
at the two panels next to the bus.

Cheers.

Find the differences.

The candidates are
determined by their choice of drink.

they are divided into two teams.

Gino, Dorien, and Zeno
form the green team,

while Steffie, Emiel, and Jef
are the white team.

Before they can start
with the good deeds,

they have to find five differences

between the real view
of the village

and a similar view
on a large billboard.

To find the five mistakes,

they have to thoroughly analyze
both panoramas.

Once they have correctly identified
all five differences,

They receive a ground plan
of the village

showing the locations
of the three good deeds.

Come on, let's go.
- Let's go.

Find the five differences.

Come on, Jef.
- Let's go.

A cottage.
- That's the tower.

That's it.

Here's one. That pink one. That pink house.

Great. Okay.

Here?

Is that correct? Yes, that sign, right?

The first differences
are quickly spotted.

The house on the right
is not actually pink

and the traffic sign
on the left

should depict a dead-end street.

But as always
with these kinds of puzzles,

the last differences
are not so easy to find.

Take a look with the binoculars.
- That clock in that tower. Here.

That clock in that tower.
- Here. Take a look.

That sign. Where is that sign?

Yesterday, that green.
- That sign.

Is it here?
- Look closely.

You have that tower.
Yes, here on that little hill.

Each team must recognize the five differences
as quickly as possible.

The less time they need
for this,

the faster they can start
performing the three good deeds.

That sign.
- Here.

No, no.
- Yes, that's another one.

Oh, clever. Maybe that little house? That house?

This is it.
- No.

Two windows.

Here, here.

Yes, done.
- Yes, great.

The white team is the first
to hammer five nails into the board.

But they haven't marked
the correct differences.

But isn't that right?

No, nothing comes out.

Even though the answers
are right in front of them,

the task proves to be
more difficult than expected.

That tower isn't there.
- Here.

Yes.

Come on, let's go.

Is the clock correct?
- I don't think the clock is correct.

No, no. That's wrong.

Well spotted, young one.

It's good. It's correct.

Yes.

Open up. Show me.
- Oh, f*ck.

That's with X's on it.
- Those are the three tasks.

Come on, just walk.

Thanks to the smooth cooperation
of team white,

they obtained the map
after only four minutes.

On this map
are marked the three locations

where they must perform
good deeds in the village.

The team that succeeds
the fastest here

will win an advantage
for tomorrow's exit.

Here.
- That's it.

That tower is not on it either.
- No, it's not on it.

Alright, that's the last one.
- Yes.

Oh man, seriously? That can't be right?
Wait, that one is correct.

That one...
- That's correct. Tower is correct. And this one?

That tower is not on there, right?
- No, it's not on there.

We marked the same tower twice.
That's not right.

This one is just not correct.

Make sure to look around carefully.

Wow.
- Oh, f*cking hell.

Both teams have found on the map

the exact locations
of the good deeds.

But they don't know
exactly what they need to do there.

They have to figure that out themselves.

By analyzing the situation thoroughly each time.

Every event in the village is unique.

And will repeat itself over and over again.

Until each team succeeds in performing the good deed correctly.

Yes, here.

Yes. Petanque.
- Oh, petanque. Nice.

That's funny.
He probably just needs to win.

The oranges?
Throwing them, right?

To throw with, for sure?

Emiel, Jef, and Steffie immediately notice.

There is something strange going on
with the local petanque players.

Can't we just join in?

In their haste, they forget
to assess the situation together.

and it's all guesswork
as to what good deed they can do here.

What are those oranges for?

Maybe those oranges are just there
to mislead us.

...

Yeah, but yeah.

You have nothing else to do here.

Here. That window. It's closed.
- Yes, yes. Well spotted. Yes.

Yes.

Meanwhile, pack the map.
I'll go take a look.

The green team,
consisting of Dorien, Zeno, and Gino,

is leaving six minutes later

and already has a significant
deficit to make up.

If they want to finish first,

they'll have to catch up on
the three good deeds quickly.

Although that's not
the easiest task.

Alright.
- Helping that woman carry her bags.

That woman is carrying heavy bags.
- They need to be taken back to that market or something.

Can I help you?
- No.

No problem.
- No?

Take a good look around.
If you see something that doesn't seem right...

Okay. It was left at the altar.

That one is suspicious too.
He has a dictionary.

While team green
tries to figure out

what's going on
with the bride and groom,

team white is losing their way
due to their good deed.

Because you can't win
a game of petanque

with oranges.

The oranges are here for a reason.

Or should we just eat them?

We need to find something.

We need to find orange ba*ls.
Petanque ba*ls, that is.

This is too slow, isn't it?

We were walking around that village
like headless chickens.

We played petanque with oranges,

but it was the petanque ba*ls
that we needed.

Ah, there's a vegetable stand.

Here, yes.

Here, they are inside.
- Take them with you.

There's still one in here. Just walk.
- It's empty, right?

Leave that orange.
- Okay.

Here, here. Run, run. You're faster.

Here, sir. You can play with this.

Win for us. Yes.

Team white manages to be the first
to complete their good deed.

But they have
lost a lot of time.

So much so that their lead
over Dorien, Zeno and Gino

has almost disappeared
into thin air.

Igilio. Iginio.

Iginio. Igini... Something like that.

I don't know what it was.
I didn't understand it.

But she was clearly furious.
An Italian fury.

But I think there was really something
wrong with those flowers.

Okay, he doesn't want those flowers.
We need to find other flowers.

Get that dictionary.
- Can I use this for a moment?

Igili.
- Igili.

Igini or something like that.
- Igili.

Igini.
- Get those flowers.

That one needs different flowers.
- Igili...

These are white flowers.
Maybe it has something to do with white.

Igini doesn't exist.
- With a G then?

Giglio. Here. Lily.
- Lilies.

The scenes in the village will
repeat themselves over and over again

until both teams
perform their good deed.

Dorien needs to hurry now
to replace the groom's flowers

before he gives them
to his bride.

Ah, good shot, Dorien.

Lily. Lily.

Alright. Next.
To the next one.

Dorien, Zeno, and Gino
manage to give

the bridal couple
an unforgettable day in no time.

Their quick thinking
has led to a

beautiful comeback
against the other team.

Both teams still have a chance
to win the final victory, provided they

quickly bring the other two good deeds
to a successful conclusion.

At least, if they manage to do so.

Yes.

What is that over there?

Everything okay? Tutto bene?
- What did he have to do?

Why do we have to crawl on it?
He was working on it.

Maybe make a light or something?
- Wash the windows or something.

We need to do something for the village.
That is indeed a good deed.

Wait, what was he doing?
- He's going to fall again.

Is he going to fix that lamp?

He's looking up.

And now...
- Something to hold onto.

He needs a parachute
or something to climb with or something.

They won't find a parachute,
but a soft surface.

Using a ramen washer can save a lot of pain.

Is it here? Yes, it is.
- Wasn't it on the right? It should be over there.

I think it's on the right side of the church.

Here. Definitely with that bike.
- That bike.

Put the chain on it.
- No, no.

Everything okay?
- Yes.

Okay.
- Not here.

That's the back of that garden.
We're in this street now.

It's here. It's Piazza San Marco.
That's here.

Yes, it's here.

We need to find their petanque ba*ls.
- Yes.

Could that be it? But where?
- Okay. Wait a sec.

With the team
of Steffie, Emiel, and Jef,

there is little cooperation,
resulting in them

running around like headless chickens,

searching for clues.

Although the solution
might be closer

than they suspect.

sh*t.

Here, here. Here's a small vegetable market.

I found the petanque ba*ls.
- Great. Anything else?

Yes, all three. They only need three. Alright.

Here, boys. Here you go.

Ah. Hey, let's go. To the left. Back to the left.

That was our good deed.
- That was a good deed.

They're also working here.
Ah, a mattress to put under him?

A mattress.
- Here, come. Don't you need this anymore?

Then he won't hurt his ankle.
- Yes.

Are you coming to push?
- Are you going to catch him?

Yes.
- He'll just have to fall on it, right?

Then he falls right next to it.

Be careful. Be careful.

Yes, okay.

Is it okay?

We haven't received many tips yet.
- We'll get a big tip soon.

Ah, there. That wedding.
- Yes, and someone is sitting here.

Keep walking.
- First, let's look at that wedding.

I gigli.

There on that ladder. That's also suspicious.
- Check here again.

Here, that person is going to drop something or something.
- Yes, those two towers.

Take a seat.
- We need to help him.

Yes, that person fell off the ladder
and hurt themselves.

Then they climb back up the ladder.
I don't really understand

what they're trying to say,
so I don't know.

Both teams are trying
to discover their last good deed.

The team that succeeds first

in completing their task successfully
will win the game

and will have the privilege to make
some important choices

that will have a direct impact
on the further course of the exit.

That dictionary is something else.

He is late. He will be rejected.
- Should we make sure he is on time or something?

We need to make sure they still get married.

Damn it, guys.

I see there...

We need a mattress... In case he falls.
Come on, grab that mattress. Nice.

Wait, he has flowers again.

He's going to do it again.
We need to make sure that...

Or maybe they're not
the right flowers.

Put the mattress underneath. Go, go, go.

Come on, come on. Hurry, hurry.

To that guy.
- Come, come, come.

Come on. Quick.

Alright. Go, go, go.

Alright.
- Awesome.

Dearest...

Yes.

Nice.

Both teams have succeeded
in completing their good deeds,

making some locals in
this picturesque village very happy.

But in all the chaos,

did the contestants also take the time
to absorb the surroundings and the clues?

I think everyone knows pretty well
where we are. At least, in which country.

You see those cypresses and those churches
in that particular style of architecture.

It wasn't all put there
just for us.

The village exuded Italy. It was
simply a model town in every way.

On the bus, I had already seen
the flag of Italy,

so I was pretty sure it was Italy.

I also thought that the layout
of the village and the stones and such

all seemed very Italian.

In the village, I saw clues and tips everywhere.

All of them really led to Italy.

But that's exactly why I remained critical
and the doubt only grew bigger

whether it was really Italy
or if it was all fake.

For you it will no longer be a surprise,

we are in

Italy.

The exit will also take place
in an Italian city.

And one of these carrier pigeons
will fly there shortly.

Sick advantage.

The other pigeons fly
to other cities.

The team that just won
gets the advantage of assigning

a pigeon to each candidate.

Everyone will see tomorrow
the distance between their pigeon

and the bus exit location.

And the fastest team was...

If I want to give one person a tip
who has nothing to do with it, it's Jef.

Good flying, mate.

I'm not going to delay the exit any longer.

I want you to immediately
mark your X on the map.

f*ck.
- Now?

For the first time
since the start of this adventure,

the candidates know for sure
which country they are in.

Italy.

What's more, they even know
that the exit will take place

in one of the six cities
where the pigeons fly to.

Each candidate gets a pigeon.

But only the team
that managed

to perform the three good deeds
the fastest,

can make this distribution.

And the fastest team was...

Gino, Zeno and Dorien.
- Yes.

Okay, great job. Well done.

Congratulations.
- Thank you.

I thought so. Yes, we really lost a lot of time with that...

With that game of petanque, right?
- That petanque.

We played petanque against them.

With a difference of only 14 seconds,

Dorien, Zeno and Gino set the fastest time.

Verona, Venice, Milan,
Rome, Malcontenta and Florence

are the six Italian cities.

They now have to divide them among themselves and the losing team.

Each candidate will receive
one pigeon in this way.

And therefore also one Italian city
assigned to them.

Each pigeon carries a tracker,

so every candidate will see during the exit

how much distance there is
between the exit spot

and the city where their pigeon
will fly to shortly.

But there is also one pigeon

that will fly directly to the city
of the exit.

Whoever chooses this pigeon immediately
has an extra advantage

to put the X even more accurately on the map.

Good morning.
- Good morning.

The choice is yours.

Okay, guys.
I would definitely go for 'the bot'.

We already know where Venice is for sure.

This is 'the bot'.

I know this one well thanks to yesterday.

Here is Venice. One hundred percent sure.
- There is Rome.

Rome. This is where Rome is located approximately.
- Florence is located below Venice.

Below Venice. Florence.
On the coast, right?

Milan is also located in the north, right?

This sucks, right?
- A lot.

Damn it, right.
- I hate losing.

For us, it's important that we spread out as far as possible... For them.

It will then become more difficult for them.
- Yes.

Okay, look.
We'll take Verona, Venice, and Rome.

They won't be able to position themselves well in Milan.

We'll give Milan to Steffie.
We'll give Jef Malcontenta.

And we'll give Florence to Emiel.
- Okay.

Alright.

En?
- What did you pick?

Go ahead.
- The blue one with the shell.

We have assigned for you...
Milan for Steffie.

Malcontenta for Jef.
And Florence for Emiel.

I'm not happy about that, man.
- Malcontenta, dude?

Malcontenta. And what about you guys?

Gino got Verona. I got Venice.
And Dorien got Rome.

Again?
- Yeah, I knew that one. So, yeah...

The Colosseum.

I chose Venice.
I wanted Venice.

I have my reasons for that.

And then Gino Verona got caught. He knew
that very well. And Dorien Rome.

Oh, I've never held that before.
- Venice.

Zeno actually wanted Venice.

I thought that was a great location for me.
The alternative was Verona.

I also thought that was a very good one,
considering the location.

I think I made
a good choice with that.

Good flying, mate.

It wasn't a surprise that we were in Italy,
so I didn't think much of it.

Italy is big,
so it could be any city.

In Croatia, I was really sure
that we would keep going east.

But from the moment Kevin said
we were in Italy,

I was really surprised
that we had actually turned back.

Beautiful Italy.

It remains to be seen how far my pigeon
will be from the location.

While the pigeons fly away
mile after mile,

the bus will not go any further.

Tonight, the candidates will camp
near the village.

I didn't sleep well last night,

because it kept
spinning in my head:

Which Italian city
are we actually going to?

Suddenly we're getting a ton of information
and that's strange,

because it was absent throughout the entire game.

It was really quiet on the bus.

You can tell that Kevin's last message
with the six options

has got everyone thinking.

But that doesn't necessarily make it
easier

knowing the six options.
On the contrary, even.

I think we're going to learn a lot
with those pigeons,

but nothing is actually being discussed
among us on the bus.

I'm not going to bring it up myself,
so that actually suits me well.

If I can combine my information with Zeno
like I did with the previous exit,

I'm sure that the two of us
will stand strong again.

I really feel a lot of
uncertainty among the other candidates at the moment

about the six cities where we are supposed to be.

Hello.

Umberto Tozzi.

Gloria.

Come on, wake up.

Gloria.

When something remarkable happens suddenly,

all senses become alert again.

Oh.
- Oops.

Where are we again?

Is something happening or not?
- I think so.

Maybe we are sailing.
- Or flying.

We are moving. Do you feel that?
- Yes. Strange, isn't it?

We are really on a boat.

Don't you feel it?
- Yes, but I felt that before too.

I can also feel the engine.
- That's not the bus engine.

That's fake again, yes.

You can see the bus moving.
- You can feel it.

Look at the water.
- We're on the water.

No, I'm sure it's not.
- I don't believe it either.

No. Every vehicle on a ferry
must be secured.

Did you hear a chain?
- I was just about to say that.

I was thinking the same thing.
- No.

Oh, finally.
- Come on.

Dear candidates, I have made it
extra easy for you so far.

Everyone knows we're in Italy.
But do you know where exactly?

We have arrived at the final
location of this episode.

And I will no longer delay
the exit.

I want you to immediately
mark your X on the map.

Good luck.
- Now?

Wow, my heart is racing.
- Mine too.

My stomach is turning.
- I'm dying of anticipation.

f*ck.

Against all expectations,
the candidates must now

immediately mark their X on the map.

Even those of you at home
only have two minutes left

To place your X
on bestemmingx.be.

In their cocoon, the candidates discover

an extra function on their map.
The pigeon.

When they activate it,
they see the distance

between their current location
and their personal pigeon.

That distance is the radius
of a circle

that intersects the exit location.

Wow, madre mia.

So somewhere on this yellow circle
is the city

where the candidates
are currently located.

We intentionally spread our cities
out on the map.

I put Rome because last time
I marked my X in the wrong place.

And I thought: maybe
that's my lucky shot now.

But Rome
is still quite far away.

I don't know much
about the south of Italy.

And in the north, the circle is quite large,
but it clearly crosses two cities.

I lost some time
searching on my circle

to make sure there wasn't
another city on it.

It was all very sudden.

And I've also noticed
that when you're dealing with those X's...

The clock counts down and at a certain point
you just go crazy

and then you just do something.

There were two cities
clearly within my reach.

In the village I had noted down tips,
but I didn't know if I could believe them.

So I had hoped
that there would be another game

where I could win
and earn a tip.

Oh, sh*t.

I've seen a lot of tips.

It's full of cards there
and a little boat.

It was actually quite clear.

I have made my fellow candidates
doubt a little bit

that we were still on the mainland.

We are really on a boat.
- We are on the water.

No, I am sure we are not.

I am a child of the sea myself. I have
always had a boat, so I know.

I could feel from the swaying that we were not
at sea, but somewhere on a canal.

Yes, I thought Gino was convincing
that it was not safe.

They did convince me
that it was not on water.

There you go, boom.

It will be fine. It will be fine.

Emiel and I always had time
to discuss and see where we stand,
but now we couldn't.

But I think we both know
which city we're going to,
so everything should be fine.

When I was allowed to choose a pigeon,
I immediately went for Venice.

I also wanted to claim it. I succeeded.
No one questioned that.

Actually, I only didn't know
Malcontenta.

I really wanted to claim that too.
And I did. No one questioned it.

I only didn't know Malcontenta,
to be honest.

I genuinely thought:
if there's one person who will know it,

and if there's one person I want to give a tip to
who won't do anything with it, it's Jef.

Just purely
because I think too highly of him.

And I want to make it
as difficult as possible.

I had the pigeon Malcontenta.
Honestly, I didn't know where that was.

But when I opened the map,
I saw that it was near a city.

I'm not as discontent
as I was earlier.

I think we're on the water
and I believe it.

If you can fake all of that... Wow.

Together with the candidates,
you just put your X massively

on the map of Europe.

This is where Flanders thinks
the bus is currently located.

You will discover the answer
shortly after the exit.

Results. Okay.
- Come on, guys.

Huh? Kevin.

Hello, everyone. You just
put your X for the fifth time.

And one thing stood out.

Namely, you have all indicated
the same Italian city.

Wow.
- Amazing.

Beautiful.

That bus is just in Venice.
Ah, fantastic.

San Marco.

How is that possible? We're on a barge.

See us sitting here.
- This is truly fantastic.

Congratulations. All six of you knew
that we are in Venice.

I have seen a lot of clues
and they mainly led to Venice.

It couldn't be anything else
but Venice.

With the clues I saw in the village,
I still chose Venice.

Yes, definitely.

When the pigeon opened, I immediately
thought: yes, I made a good choice.

My intuition was right.

I saw several clues in the village
that all refer to Venice.

During carnival, they wear
such a mask.

The square was called San Marco
and the San Marco square is located in Venice.

As a result, I can give you
well-deserved free time for the first time.

Without any limitations.

You will end this delightful day
with a typical meal

in a local trattoria.
Enjoy beautiful Venice. Ciao.

What?
- What?

So, nobody is going home?
- Nobody is going home.

We are going to a restaurant.
- I'm looking forward to it. In Venice.

I'm really excited
to explore the city.

To do a lot of sightseeing and dining out
and just enjoy being together with everyone.

Having fun.

I have a very mixed feeling about it.

On one hand, it's super fun
to walk around Venice

and let go of everything,

but on the other hand, I really don't believe
that there are no consequences.

For the first time and thanks to some help,
all candidates manage to

indicate the correct exit location.

A unique achievement, and for that
they will receive a reward.

For a brief moment, they are
normal tourists in Venice

and can let go of the game.
A welcome relaxation.

Here it is.
- Ah, great.

The most beautiful square in Italy.

Oh my goodness.
- Beautiful, isn't it?

I'm so glad
that nobody had to leave.

Yes, me too.

I thought for sure
someone was going home.

No elimination is always a relief.

It's a little bit like a finale.
A finale with six.

And we get to see. We get to look around.
- For once, without those glasses on our heads.

Gino, you can put away that notebook.
- No notes today.

No booklet.
- Not tonight for once.

Here? Alright. Which one do you want?

That's my color. Is it pretty?
Don't we have a party tonight?

What's this, Gino?
Do you want to try it on too?

But tell me...

You would know how to play tennis
if he hangs left or right.

Under the guise of some quality time
with the ladies

Steffie and Dorien
split off from the group.

Although that seems
like a nicely made-up excuse.

I do think the men
should spoil us a bit more.

Yes, that's true.

They're playing us, you know.
- Yes, yes.

The men are against us too.
- Do you think so?

Emiel and Zeno are.

No, I think they want us to...

End up with four, but in the end they want us out too.

Yes, in the end it's between them, I think. They want to compete against each other.

Yes, that's true. The women are in it. We're in the final.

We're in the final.
- There you go.

And if teams need to be made,
we make sure we're spread out.

Yes, we always have a chance.

Yes, so we can help each other further.
- Yes.

What we know, we share with each other.
- There you go.

And then we win that.

While the ladies
forge a new pact,

the gentlemen unknowingly
continue strolling through the city.

Yes, boys.

Check that out.

Soon we'll have a test:
to see who can ride that gondola the fastest.

Alright, game is on.

We must not be surprised by anything.
Really not.

Ah, here.

Here are the men. Where were you?
- There.

We were looking for you.
- We were looking for you too.

Yeah, yeah. Right.

We thought you went shopping.
- Come on.

Why would we go shopping?
- Why not?

But look.

Wow.
- Is that really for us?

I think so. I count six chairs,
I count six candidates, so I think...

We'll see, won't we.

Hey, all six of us.
- In Venice.

In Venice.
- In Venice.

That's crazy, isn't it?
- We're in Venice.

Strange, isn't it? And outside.
- Indeed.

So just enjoy it while you can.
- Yes.

Now we know where we are.
- Tomorrow we won't know anything anymore.

Good evening.
- Good evening.

This is the menu.
You can order whatever you want.

They only have to tell me once.

After an afternoon of relaxation
in the most beautiful city in Italy,

they are still waiting for some local
delicacies, a nice glass of wine

and above all,
a fantastic group atmosphere.

Being able to let go
of this all-encompassing game

clearly feels good.
For as long as it lasts.

Oh, that looks mega delicious.

Wow, hello.
- Fancy things.

Well, enjoy your meal.
- Enjoy.

Do you eat spaghetti
with a fork or a spoon?

Always with a fork.
- Oh no, I wanted to cut it.

I will not do that.
- No. Are you one of those? Come on.

Wow, it's super delicious.

The way those men maneuver
with such a small boat, it's unbelievable.

It really feels like vacation now.
- Yes, now it's really vacation.

But you have to give to receive.
That's the truth.

But no.
- Yes.

Let's just enjoy the evening.
- I think we get a free card.

Yes.
- You think so?

Does anyone need anything else?
- Let me taste it.

Of course. Go ahead.

Do Lady and the tr*mp.

He doesn't dare. He doesn't dare.
- Come on, do it.

For his reputation.
- Because you asked so nicely.

Wait a moment. Yes, start.

Hey, this is really good pasta.
- It's delicious.

Fresh pasta in Venice.
It doesn't get more Italian than this.

But pasta comes
in all shapes and sizes.

Curious to see how much
the candidates know about it.

Here we go.
- Now it begins.

So it begins.

Good evening.
Hopefully you enjoyed your meal.

f*ck.
- Oh no. The correct name.

Oh, sh*t.
- I know that.

I don't know.
- I don't know either.

Good luck with this challenge.
- Okay.

f*ck. Damn.
- Come on, man.

Completely unexpectedly,
the candidates receive

a task served to them.

In this mountain of pasta,
they must search as quickly as possible

for six different types.

The names in the boxes
may sound familiar,

but do they also know
which pasta it is?

In Antwerp, we call them bows.

Yes.
- But tell me...

sh*t, I'm hesitating
between those two.

Yeah, whatever.

f*ck, I really have no idea.
- No idea.

Ah, no. I'm missing one.

Yeah, you know... It's a guess.

I'm missing one. Ah, here it is.

Allee, we were just
quietly eating something.

But yeah...

Everyone knows those names.
- I don't know that, though.

Exactly.
- Allee.

What?

Not correct.

Correct.
- Yes.

Not correct.

Correct.

Wonderful.

Correct.

Jef and Emiel recognize
the correct pasta the fastest,

followed by Dorien and Zeno.

Because Steffie and Gino
choose the wrong pasta,

their time no longer matters
and they are automatically last.

Hey, spaghetti, pasta for everyone?

I can't see any more pasta.
- Yes.

Cheers.
- Cheers, mate.

Oh, wow. A good espresso.

Nice and cozy with those candles.
- It's still nice to sit here.

h*, hey. A boat is approaching
with a lantern.

Aha.

Wow, someone is standing there
with one of those masks.

Yuck.
- Are you serious? Can you see that?

Yes, it's creepy.

This is not a coincidence.
- Oh no, it's not.

This is disgusting.

Ah, that's creepy, man.

Sorry, but I find this really disgusting.

Ah, that's creepy, man.
- I really find this disgusting.

Yes, here. Stop, stop.

Go, go. Quickly.
- We only have five minutes left.

Here, here.
- Yes, that's something completely different.

Man.
- I thought so, right?

It was too good to be true.
There are always consequences.

Oh, no.

This is disgusting.

Ah, that's creepy, man.

Sorry, but this is really too gross for me.

Creepy.
- Super creepy.

Do you have something to celebrate?
- Well, yes.

The fact that we can be here
together in Venice with six people.

Well, unfortunately your evening
doesn't end here.

Because soon the bus will leave Venice,

but only with five passengers.
- Man.

So one of you will have to
irrevocably leave the bus soon.

I thought so.
It was too good to be true.

In this game, nothing is random.
There are always consequences.

Each of you has placed your X
in Venice earlier.

But how close to the exact location?

The exact location was on the water.

Between San Marco Square
and the island of San Giorgio.

I give you the chance to bring your X
closer to the exact location.

But then you will have to
unmask me.

Thanks to the pasta puzzle, you are
already divided into pairs.

Jef and Emiel. Dorien and Zeno.
Steffie and Gino.

Good luck.
- Alright.

Thank you.

Damn.

Yeah, we didn't expect that.
- No.

Oh no.

But...

The candidates must ride in a gondola
in pairs

and navigate the nighttime canals of Venice
in search of nine masks.

It's up to the duos
to discover as many masks as possible

within thirty minutes
within the designated area.

Because at the end of the game

they must unmask me
in a line-up.

In that line-up
there will be one mask

that they did not see along the way.
Mine.

Do they recognize my mask
among the ten others,

then their X moves closer
to the exit location.

Okay, okay. Let's go. Have you started searching?

That white bridge was clearly visible.
- Start. We are going straight ahead from here.

To find their way
through the dark canals,

each team is given a map.
On that map, a zone is marked

where they can spot the nine masks.

They also have a Dutch-Italian dictionary,

which they can use to instruct the gondolier.

If they don't say anything, the Italian
will continue to sail straight ahead.

I'm going to look straight ahead. No, we already knew that. What else do I need to look up?

Left. Just go left.

Sinistra means left. So sinistra is left. I'm also going to look... Right.

Look carefully, okay?
- Yes, I'm doing it.

Just look at your map.

Stop, isn't that arrète?
- I don't speak Italian.

I can only say my name.

Yes, here. Stop, stop.

That's someone with a golden mask.

Completely gold
and with a grin on his face.

The candidates must memorize all the masks they encounter.

Because one mask
from the line-up later

they will not have seen yet.

And behind that mask
I will be sitting.

Maybe look here. Here, here.
Take a good look. A golden mask.

And that one is without any disadvantage, right?

It reminded me a bit
of The Joker situations.

Oh my goodness.

A mask with a big smile.
- Did you see it well?

Yes.
- Yes? Good.

Within each duo, the fate
of one candidate

is directly linked
to the other.

They don't know
where the other placed their X.

So either one of them
could be the next to go.

They are completely
dependent on each other.

This is why any mistake
could be fatal.

There's one person on top of the bridge.

Is that just gold?
- Just gold.

Come on, show yourself better.
- That's really just gold.

Exactly like a golden woman.
- Yes, a very graceful woman.

That was a golden mask.
- That was a regular one.

He walked away.

Wait, huh. Let's also see
where we're sailing to.

The maze of locks and canals
turns Venice into

a challenging labyrinth.

Finding the way goes
more smoothly for some duos

than for others.

We are now here. Either we'll go left later
to do that...

Wow.

But this is also water. Either we have to
take a round trip. I would do that.

Then let's do that.

Do you already know where we are?
- Um...

There it is.

What does it say on it?

Minus 500.

When the candidates later
indicate a wrong mask,

their X will move 500 meters
further from the exit location.

But on the way, the duos
will also encounter three masks

that come with penalty meters.

They need to be extra careful
with these masks.

If they choose one of these,

their X will not go back 500 meters
but 1,000 meters.

You can hardly see any difference.

He does have black lips.
- Yes, black lips.

Okay, so definitely not black lips.

Yes, I see a white mask...
with a little bit of black in it.

That mask has an ear.
The other one didn't. Okay, got it.

So we have gold with green and black,
gold and gold with an ear.

And gold with an ear is now
firmly in our minds, okay?

All teams have by now
spotted the first three masks.

He still has twenty minutes left
to find the other six.

Look here, Gino.
There might be one standing here.

That's possible.

Great setting, huh.
- Yeah, loads of it.

Check us out sailing here.
It's like some kind of movie or something.

Stop, stop.

That's something completely different.
- What is it, boy?

That one has no eyes.

Oh, yes it does. It's a mouth at the bottom
and then a small unibrow.

Yeah, it's really that expression.

That is silver.
- What is that? Silver?

Silver with black.

No, not gone yet.

That was just silver, right?
- Yeah, I don't know.

It shines the same.
- Gone too fast.

I see a word
in this dictionary here...

You don't have to say it out loud.
It's okay.

Look closely in the...
- Yes, I'm working on it.

Just look at your map.

We've already seen two.
- We've already seen four, Gino.

Four?
- Yes, four.

It is not an easy task
for the candidates.

And with the multitude
of channels and masks,

they become more and more confused.

So, where are those men?

Wait, umm. Actually, I have no idea
where we are.

A quickie.

How do you say that?
- Sveltina.

Oh, that sounds nice.

Yes, I have ridden
on a gondola once.

Yes, but yeah. I'm not here for fun.
Really not. I don't want to go home.

Was that...
- Here, on the left. Stop, stop.

Oh, that's a bit the same.

That's actually silver with...
- Stripes?

That's not the same,
but I can't say any features.

Yes, that 500. I see that, yes.

Silver with lots of notches and stripes.

The two big disadvantages
that we're definitely not going to choose,

are gold with one ear
and silver with notches.

Is there one here or not?

Not that I can see.

So now right, right? Come on, say it.
- Derre.

Good. Canale Grande.
- Canale Grande?

Canale Grande.

Or we just turn around.
We can do that too.

Yes? Just go back.
- Reverso.

We need to turn around.

Gino and Steffie and Dorien and Zeno
are losing valuable time

by sailing outside the designated zone.

If they don't make it back within the remaining time,

The last four masks
want to mock,

they can't make any mistakes anymore.

Here we are still in the zone, but...
- That will be the extension, right?

No, no. We are here now.

Here, here.
- Yes.

That one has a sad mouth.
- Gold with a sad mouth.

He's crying. These are real emotions.
He's crying.

So we already have crying, happy, angry...

It's the facial expression that's different.
- The facial expression of the mask?

Yes. It's difficult, isn't it.

There is... Oops.

Be careful with that lamp, they said.

Yes, there's one on the bridge.
Yes, okay. That's gold, right? Not?

Yes... That seems like silver to me.

That also looks more like a woman.
- Yes, she looks super serious.

Something Maria-like.
- Yes, a statue of Mary.

A bit alien-like.
- Yes, right.

Here. Della secondo. Here.
So we're sitting here.

Oh, one more.
- Okay. That's minus 500 or...

Yes, disadvantage. Yes. And what does that one have?

Above something. Wavy hair
in the shape of an S or something.

Yes, that's right...
- Gold. More Roman.

Yes, I was going to say Roman too.

For now, every team is doing well.

Only the last mask
can still cause trouble.

We really have to get there.
Go, go. Quickly.

We only have five minutes left.
- Quickly to the left.

No, the other way.
- Straight ahead.

There's still one here.
- Okay, a golden mask.

With eyebrows that are a bit too big
and a pointed hood.

I don't see it.

Did it also have a pointed hood?

No. Nothing.

Maybe we should go in here?
I'll go check, okay.

No.

Only Gino and Steffie notice
the last mask on the bridge.

And that could be
a big advantage

against the other teams.

Damn. But yeah, we have a lot anyway...

I think we've seen them all.

I think we're in a pretty good position
for our cross with two.

Yeah, it's good.

I really don't want to take those three disadvantages.

I'd rather go back 500 meters,

but if we take a disadvantage,
we'll go back 1,000 meters.

Yeah, so that's really not a plan.
- We're not going to do that.

Ten masks. Ten hidden faces.

Hopefully, you've seen nine of them on the way,

but of course, it's about me.

Whoever unmasks me will see their X.

Slide towards the exact exit location.

But for those who choose wrong,
the adventure could be over.

My gut feeling tells me
that we're not sure.

Damn.

Normally, you should leave the bus
immediately.

It will already be exciting.
- How is that possible?

I tried to play it safe.
- Oh man.

Honestly, I find this one
one of the toughest.

The candidates just crossed
the canals of Venice in a gondola,

searching for nine masks.

Hopefully they remembered it well,

because in front of them are ten masks,

of which they haven't seen one. Mine.

If they can unmask me,

their X will move 1,500 meters closer
to the exit location.

For every wrong guess they make,

their X will move 500 meters
further from the exit.

In addition, there are also
three masks with penalty meters.

If they choose these, their X
will move an extra 500 meters backwards.

A dangerous game of
'Who is it?'.

And if the candidates
aren't paying attention,

they could end up far
from the exit with their X.

The duos must each choose
at least one mask

and have one minute to do so.

If they guess wrong, they can
decide to stop

or choose again.

Okay.

We've seen one.
- Yes. One we haven't.

The second one we haven't seen.
- No?

With that hair. The third one is
printed... We've seen that one too.

I'm not sure about that one.
- Me neither.

I don't know the fourth one.
- We didn't see the fourth one.

The fifth one was the woman on the bridge
who ran away quickly.

It's definitely not five. Not six either.

We're sure up to six.

I think six is the one with the ear.

No, because that one was gold.

Wait a minute.
We also saw the one in colère.

And the one with stripes,
we saw that one too.

And the other one also has hair,
see, on its forehead.

Is that that little ball?
- That little ball we saw.

The last one?

I find it difficult.
- I also find it difficult.

Whatever we do,
I would only guess once.

Or not?
- Yes, definitely.

Yes, one of the last ones.
- Oh, man.

Nine? Eight?

You can say it.
I can't say for sure.

Eight then.
- That's fine with me.

Yes?
- Yes.

Jef and Emiel choose
mask number eight.

If that's correct,
their X moves forward 1,500 meters.

But if it's wrong,
they move back 500 meters.

And they also have to watch out for
masks with extra penalty meters.

That's not good.

No.

Oh. Oh, no. f*ck, I thought it was him.

Oh, no.
- f*ck.

Minus 1,000.

Here, here. Here, left. Stop, stop.

O, that's a bit the same.

Stop?
- I would also stop.

Stop.
- Actually, I really think it's four.

If the others are wrong, they will
also stop. So I would stop.

Minus 500... But, yeah. I would stop.

Oh, sh*t.

I think we both put our cross
fairly okay.

But if we guess wrong again now,
I think it's lost.

It will be exciting now.

Yes...
- Yes, sh*t, right.

Ja, in itself, one kilometer is now...
It's far and not far, you know.

I do think it's far, though.
- We were the closest, you know.

Yes, we think so.
Normally, Dorien is also in my position.

Really?
- Yes, she said so.

I don't know about Gino.
I also don't know about Steffie.

I'm hesitating between...
between four...

six and the last one.
- Yes.

I would rather go for...
- Ten, then?

You can choose something. It doesn't matter to me.
But we're only going to guess once.

So, ten?
- I would go for ten, yes.

I really don't know.
- Okay, let's choose ten.

Oh no. He's laughing.
sh*t, he's laughing. That's not him.

No, it's not him.
- Damn.

f*ck.

But it's also not a disadvantage.

Go back 500 meters.
- Yeah, but he had nothing under his jacket.

Let's see. Here, here. Take a good look.
A golden mask.

And that one is without a disadvantage, right?

He reminds me a bit
of The Joker stuff.

What do you want to do?

My intuition tells me
that we're not sure.

Are we really going to risk it
to be wrong twice?

No.
- I dare...

I'm still a little unsure
about four.

Four and six.
- Or we just say: f*ck it.

Yeah, and then we'll go
one and a half kilometers backwards? That's a lot, isn't it?

Are we going to stop?
- Yes, we're going to stop.

I had three masks in my head,

but I thought: if all three are wrong,
we'll have to go back 1,500 meters.

After those first penalty meters,
I also started to heavily doubt.

I really don't have confidence in the exit.

I don't know if I marked my cross correctly.

But I tried to play it safe.

You just feel yourself sliding further.
You feel that exit getting closer.

And then it's really scary
to decide to stop.

How many mistakes? Just once?
- Just once.

And you haven't gambled anymore?
- No.

Did you have a disadvantage with that mistake?
- Maybe.

Which one did you choose?
- We chose the last one.

Ten?
- Yes, ten.

I think it was six.

Seven is a bit too small, I think.
Eight is the wrinkled one.

I think it's either the last one...
- The last or the second to last.

Nine doesn't ring a bell.
- Wait, let me see.

It's going to be nine.
- Yeah, I would say nine too.

Yes?
- Yes.

Do we agree on nine?
- Yes.

f*ck.
- Oh, f*ck.

Oh, no.

It's very hard to see.
Yes, I see a white mask, but...

With a little bit of black in it.

Yes, let's stop, shall we?
- Yes, we were going to stop anyway.

I think it's ten.
- It's one of those last ones.

It's one of those last ones.

Gino and Steffie also decide
not to continue playing.

So no duo has succeeded
in unmasking me.

Everyone sees their X
moving further away from the exit location.

But with Zeno and Dorien,
it's 500 meters less than the rest.

The crucial question now remains:
which mask am I behind?

Come on.

I was sure I had seen him.
- Damn.

Unfortunately.
- Too bad.

Unfortunately, tough luck.

I have to admit, those memory games
are not really my thing.

But in the end,
when you see number six...

I should have known, actually.
Yeah, f*ck. Regrettable.

I had the feeling that Gino wasn't really
on the ball, but neither was I.

And then immediately minus 1,000.
So we just stopped.

Hey.
- Yo.

You got him right away, didn't you?
- No, why?

Why do you think that?
- You look way too happy.

We're happy to be with you.
- We made a wrong guess.

We made a wrong guess too.
- You guys?

Yes, us too.
- Wrong once as well.

And stopped?
- Yes, stopped.

So nobody got it?
And did you have the disadvantage or did you...

Yes.
- We had the disadvantage.

Seriously?
- Oh man. So exciting.

Oh, guys.

Good evening, everyone. And congratulations.

We are halfway through
this insane adventure.

And you are one step closer
to the ultimate victory,

which is 'living clean'. But still,
I see some gloomy faces there.

Unmasking me
proved to be no easy task.

No one succeeded
and every team collected penalty points.

Some more than others.

Now it's time for the results.

I will first show you the complete
ranking of the exit.

Before the gondola game,
here is how it was.
- Oh, f*ck.

The exit location was on the water
in front of San Marco Square.

But who was able to pinpoint
this specific location on the map?

And most importantly,
who was the farthest away from it?

Oh, f*ck it.

Oh.
- Zeno.

I knew it.
- Huh?

I said it.
- That's how it was.

That's crazy.

Zeno, normally you should
leave the bus immediately now.

But of course, we also played
the gondola game

where everything could still change.
- Guys, come on.

The question is:
will this ranking remain the same

or will it change
due to the accumulated penalty meters?

We will see now.

This is really not good for my heart.
- Neither for me.

All candidates
have accumulated penalty meters,

but Zeno and Dorien
have 500 meters less than the rest.

Due to this difference,
the entire ranking

can still change drastically.

I think this is one of the toughest ones.
- No matter who drops out, it sucks.

Good shot.

Congratulations.
- Thank you.

Oh my goodness.

Gino.

Nice.
- Well done.

It's just exactly the same.

For now, yes.
- Oh, I'll have to leave.

No.
- Yes, definitely.

Ooh.

Oh, you're kidding me.
- We've gone back a kilometer.

What a sudden turn of events.

Now it's between the two of you?
- I'm going to be it. Just wait.

Emiel...

Come on.

Zeno.
- I knew it.

Alright, guys. It was fun.
It was fun.

Yes, the worst
that could happen, happened.

Zeno, my buddy, is out.

We had really come together
at the beginning of the game

and we could share our information
with each other.

That worked well.
We also clicked really well with each other.

I need to process that he's out now.

Yeah, well. That's going to change the group again, right?

f*ck.
- sh*t, right?

Come on, man.

Despite my advantage, I don't think I placed my X very well.

I could have placed my X more accurately

if I had made the connection
between the clues in the town

that pointed to a more specific
location in Venice,

somewhere along the line
closer to the Piazza San Marco.

While the candidates were tackling
the task yesterday,

it was mainly the tips that were important in the village.

Those who noticed them could determine the exact exit location.

For example, there was a typical Venetian carnival mask at the vegetable stand.

On a terrace, they could also discover a miniature gondola,

which not only confirmed the location of the exit,

but also revealed that the exit would take place on the water.

And lastly, in the village, there was also a San Marco Square,

even with the well-known winged lion.

All these tips referred to one clear location.

Because the San Marco Square in Venice

Looks out from only one side
over the water.

Guests.
- g*dd*mn it, huh.

Keep it up. I really hope
you'll do something crazy.

We'll see each other again.
- Yes, yes. It's not long, huh.

Oh, man, man.
- Thanks, everyone.

Nice to meet all of you.

Take care.
- Buddy.

Pal...

Oh, sh*t.
- f*cking sucks. Seriously.

Pal.
- Bye, huh.

Ciao.
- Yo, broer.

Alright, still with five.
- Well done by us.

Should we do a high five or not?
- Definitely. We're still in it, guys.

We're still in it. Nothing to be done.

I'm at peace with it.
And I've been at peace with it for a long time.

I could have been eliminated
when Glenn left.

I gave it my all.

What more can I say?

Because you're not alone.

Ah, f*ck.

I feel like I'm really
getting into the game.

Okay, thank you.

Wow, that's just crazy.
- Oh, my god.

How cool is that, man?
- Where am I?

After sitting on the bus for fifteen hours,
I was completely disoriented.

The next exit
doesn't look good for me at all.
