What's different about it?

It's really intimate.

- Aha.

- It's just too slow, you know?

Itd just be so much faster

if we could text.

You like your speed,

don't you?

Ashley?

Are you okay?

Hey.

What's going on?

Can you talk about it?

No.

I'm writing

to the mom of a boy

who got a punctured lung

from the wreck.

And she's really mad and she won't

return any of our calls.

And I feel so bad.

He's gonna be okay,

but I just...

I want her to know

how sorry I am.

- Here. Here.

- Thank you, Holly.

I'm sorry.

It just kind of hit me.

That's okay.

- It's okay.

- I've just been praying a lot.

Does that make you feel better?

Yeah.

You okay?

Yeah. Thanks.

- 11.

- But you rolled 10.

What? She rolled 11.

- I did not. Look.

- Wait.

It's got one more dot.

One, two, three. So...

- I think it's almost...

- Wait. Remi, have you gone?

- It's okay, just...

- Yeah no, I'll go again.

- Ashley.

- Okay. Oh, is it my turn now?

- Did you hear that?

- Ready?

Yeah, just doing the math, guys.

I don't really have any...

Why do you have five cards?

I don't know.

Someone handed me two of them.

'Cause she was

holding her cards.

She handed me two of them.

Bishops should go...

right there.

- Do you wanna bet?

- So how much money did you bring?

It's about $300.

Oh yeah, right!

They're all ones!

I bet that's, like, $15, $16.

Okay, so do

you guys wanna bet?

- That's nine.

- That's eight!

I'm just deciding.

Okay next. Okay.

How do you move the horse?

Okay.

He is called the knight.

What's wrong?

I'm not sure.

Um...

I don't wanna take

any chances.

- And every move after that...

- So...

I think it's Miss Scarlet.

...Im gonna

pull her in over there

and we're gonna

stay there for tonight.

Would you get 'em

ready to moor?

- Please? Thank you.

- Okay.

Right. Right now.

Go right.

Go right.

I know it's a little rough.

It's just for one night.

All right, 9 Juliet, let's get all

the gear off the boat.

- This sucks.

- Let's go!

- I need bug spray.

- Grab this side. I'll get the other.

All right, guys,

keep working!

Are you joking?

Ow! I got bit by something.

Get that tent up.

Come on.

Somebody go get

the other cooler.

- I got bit!

- Um, you guys,

put it... put it more like that.

- Like a puzzle piece. It's this way.

- All right.

- Claire, can you get water?

- Grab that one.

- Yo, Margot?

- Guys, how are you doing this?

- That's not gonna fit there.

- All right.

- You got it?

- Yeah, we're good. Whoo!

I can't set up a tent!

We're gonna have to...

hey, can you hold this up here?

Somebody get that log

so we can use it as a bench.

Natalie, that piece is too big.

Where's the front?

Was it this one or this one?

You got it.

Wait. Does anybody

have allergy medicine?

Just keep working.

We need lots of wood.

Chatcolet.

It's French, I think.

Isn't it?

My dad used to take me

here every summer,

and he told me

that Chatcolet was the name

of an Indian maiden who fell in love

with a handsome trapper.

And when he didn't

return her love,

she was so broken-hearted

that she drowned herself in this river.

That's sad.

So what do you guys think?

How was your first day?

Was it kinda what you expected?

Yes? No?

It was different in that

it all feels very real.

Go on.

Well, coming here

was my idea.

Nobody made me.

I knew I needed

to make a change,

so I researched it

and found it.

One of my issues

is that I can be

kind of shy sometimes,

so online relationships

are really easy for me.

I don't know.

This just feels really real.

Does that make sense?

Mm-hmm.

Well, how do you like it so far?

It's okay.

I like it, I guess.

Well, I have a surprise.

- I'm confused.

- Oh my God.

Hypocrite.

I usually save this

for the last night,

but I know you guys could use

a little morale boost.

So who wants to pick?

Here!

Unh!

Whoo!

Well, that's unfortunate.

But we should probably keep

our noise level down

for those people 'cause it's late

and that's the considerate thing

to do, okay?

Get outta my closet.

Come on. Get to working.

Hey. Hey.

- Get out of there.

- Stop it!

Stop!

Stand up.

Get that thing away from me.

- Eww.

- Oh, you want it?

- Come closer.

- Can we not...?

Hey. Hey, where you going?

Hey, where'd you go?

I want to talk to you...

I wanna talk to you

briefly about tomorrow.

We're gonna get up at 5:00.

We're gonna eat at 5:30.

And then I want you

to go back to your...

whatever your

morning thing is,

air out your sleeping bags,

and then generally police the area.

There you go.

Easy, little girl.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

- Let's go to bed.

- Gonna put on a show.

There you go.

There you go.

Get your drunk ass

away from me!

Keep it down over there!

Shut up, b*tch!

Okay, we get the point!

You can turn

the light out now.

Can we all agree

that we're not gonna play

shout-out with those people?

- Okay.

- Yeah.

- Let's go.

- Yes.

Come on, ladies.

It's time to get up.

Wake up.

Come on, it's morning.

- Girls, come on.

- What time is it?

It's time to wake up, okay?

It's morning time. Wake up.

It's time to get up.

Wake up.

Girls, come on.

Morning, ladies.

Good morning.

How y'all doing?

Holy sh*t, dude.

Hi!

Can you take your...?

Oh. Sorry.

It's my boyfriend's music.

Anyway, we ran out of coffee

and I thought, "What the hell.

I'm gonna go ask them."

Yeah, we have coffee.

How do you take it?

Black.

Anyway, I just wanted

to apologize

for all that noise last night

and that damn light.

He was drunk.

Well, we were

pretty rowdy ourselves.

Everything okay over there?

Oh.

Yeah.

Eh, normal.

Everyday boat living.

You know, this coffee is sh*t.

Well, it is what it is.

I could teach you how to make

a good pot of campfire coffee.

You could, huh?

We may have to do that

another time.

I would like you guys

to get some firewood.

- Aren't we leaving?

- Soon.

What are y'all doing today?

Did you hear me?

Can we get some firewood?

What, is this some kind

of Girl Scout thing or something?

Yeah.

Yeah, something like that.

Mickey, let's go!

Well...

it was really nice

meeting y'all.

And thanks for the coffee.

You guys keep practicing

on that badge.

Thank you.

Y'all have fun today.

Hey.

Well, I don't know

what's going on.

So what I want to do

is take her down to Dave

and have him look at her.

And I will feel a lot better

if he fixes whatever

it is that's going on

before I get

you guys back onboard.

And that should only take me about

half a day at the max.

What do you want me

to do with them?

I want you to get them familiar

with all the rappelling gear.

There's some really good rocks that

we saw when we were on our way in.

Just have 'em swim, eat lunch,

just hang out, swim some more

and I'll be back.

Are you sure they're gonna wanna

take orders from me?

Well, you don't have

to give 'em orders.

You can just have

fun with them.

You can do this.

Okay, this is a very good

opportunity for you.
