perform tasks together.

You figure out who you need to ride out

the chaos and who's expendable.

Today, we're gonna split into three teams,

go out and search for food.

The number each of you picked

decides your teammate.

Number one all the way, baby!

You and me, baby. All the way.

- Who's got a number 2?

- I did a number two back at the gas station.

Come on, dude. That was funny.

Oh, sweet.

I guess you and me

are a team. Hello?

All right, boys and girls,

it's the end of the world...

and the odds are against you

from the start.

Radiation poisoning is a reality.

That's why you're all wearing these.

Every day, you'll be given

a radiation elimination card.

And one of them is already contaminated.

At the end of the day, the player holding

the simulated radiated card is dead.

Don't worry.

Itjust means you're disqualifiied.

But you have a chance to survive the day

by giving your card to another player...

and surviving the radiation elimination.

It's a test of your personal will,

your endurance and fate.

And in The Apocalypse,

your fate can change- like that.

Wild animals, bacterial infection

and post-apocalyptic crazies...

are all around you,

waiting to take you down.

They're represented...

by these.

We call them "Twists" of Fate.

They are survival challenges,

and dozens of them...

are scattered

all over the playing area.

You trigger the motion sensor,

and you hear this-

Instructions on the back

explain your survival challenge.

Accomplish the challenge,

and you earn the right...

to take your radiated card

and give it to any player you choose...

and automatically survive the day.

We are going to assemble back here at 1800

hours and see who will perish in the chaos...

and who is one step closer

to $100,000.

Good luck to all of you.

Remember-

You have to work as a team

to survive the game.

But only one of you can be

the ultimate survivalist...

after the apocalypse.

- And cut! Nice work, Dale.

- All right!

I'm ready for my 15 minutes, Hollywood.

Okay, everybody.

Uh, the headsets are transmitting audio

and video back to the edit bay, so-

- So don't take them off.

- And, also, uh-

Cell phones and P.D.A.'s, etcetera-

give 'em to Neil.

He's gonna put them in the R.V.

- Have fun. I got to go take

a wicked piss, mate. - Mm-hmm.

Okay. I'm gonna follow

Elena and Jake first, as planned.

Uh, just remember, everybody-

Let's make it feel real.

Okay.

- Hey. What's up?

- I'm so gonna suck at this.

Why'd I let you talk me into it?

Mmm, because I'm irresistible?

- You're a jerk, you know?

- Gotta go.

Colonel! What happens

if we lose the elimination round?

We go back to the R.V., and you drown

your sorrows with me and Jack Daniel's...

- until the game is done.

- Oh, that sounds like fun.

But don't worry, sweetness.

I won't let you lose.

And if any of those pig-f***in'

hillbillies come around, I got your back.

Hey, bonehead!

I grew up two counties from here!

I never had sex with a pig

in my life!

You're not promotin' stereotypes,

are you, son?

Outstanding!

People in these parts might not take that

talk too well! You might wanna put a lid on it!

- Is that all right with you, funnyman?

- Ye-Yes, sir.

Uh-

Th-Th-That's cool.

You guys got the whole

"military bond" thing happenin'.

- Semper fi and sh*t.

- Yeah.

And we both hate a**holes.

Sh*t. The techies were supposed to finish

setting these up before they left.

Put your producer hat away

and get your head in the game.

I'll set these up.

I got time to kill anyway.

Thank you.

God, I wish I didn't have to do this.

Old Mikey really put you

on the spot, didn't he?

I guess he thinks it'll be entertaining

to send a city girl into the woods.

Cruel if you ask me, but don't worry.

There's something in you

he doesn't see that I do.

You may be pretty,

but you're tougher than you think.

You'll be all right.

So, "Neen," which way

should we-

I guess we go that way.

If you eat fish, maybe we should head

towards the river to find some food.

I'm vegan. I don't eat or use

any animal products...

including the swimming kind.

Oh. Isn't your belt

made of leather?

It's pleather.

I'm not a hypocrite.

No, I didn't think

that you were.

Being vegan is why

you got picked to be on the show.

M. Thought there wouldn't be

a lot for you to eat out here...

and you might have to resort

to gulping down insect larva or something.

It's the kind of thing America

loves in its reality shows, right?

- America's sick.

- Yeah.

I hate reality shows.

They're pretty idiotic.

- Then why are you doing this?

- Because it's my job.

It's M.'s first project,

and I'm just trying to be supportive.

If I was his girlfriend, I would've said,

"This sucks. You're on your own. "

- Come on. No, you wouldn't.

- Yeah, I would.

If you haven't noticed,

I can be a bit of a b*tch.

Well, if you hate reality shows,

then why are you doing this?

Let's just keep going.

We've gotta find some food.

F***ing weekend warriors.

You'd better stand down,

or someone's gonna get hurt!

Broken arrow. That's really

gonna help us hunt for food.

A spear. I like it.

It's so long and hard.

I'm just goofin'.

Come on. L- I read your bio

back in the R. V.

West Point, 4.0 average.

You're brainy. That's tight.

I, uh, bet you're a reader.

What's your favorite book? Huh?

I'm into Cat in the Hat myself.

You did the whole "tour of duty

in Iraq" thing. That's cool.

I'm more of a pacifist myself, but, hey,

I can get down with the patriotism.

- Woman in uniform's a turn-on.

- Will you shut up?

- Oh. She talks.

- Shh!

We've been hiking for three hours...

but we haven't seen or heard

any animals or birds.

It's dead quiet out here.

It's freaky, right?

It's like we're all alone.

We could get all nasty, and nobody'd

see a thing- except for 30 million people.

Come on. You're into me,

like, a little bit.

You just don't get it, do you?

I'm not into men.

You-You're a lesbian?

How hot is that?

All right. Let mejust get it focused here.

And action.

So I'm at the two.

I'm at the one.

I jump. I leap. Bam!

Shoulder was never the same.

Killed my chances at a pro career

just like that.

It's funny.

'Cause you never know

when your life's gonna change.

Man, I wanted to be in the NFL so bad-

since I was 6.

Oh, honey, I totally understand

where you're coming from.

No. Dude, don't-

Don't look in the lens. Look at-

So, um, then, after college, you just

bounced around tryin' to find yourself?

Yeah, well, this opportunity came up,

you know, to be on this TV show.

I can't throw a football no more,

but I'm still athletic.

- Mm-hmm. - I figure I'll use the

talents that God gave me, right?

Well, we'll have to thank God later.

Yeah, right.

Thank God later.

You know, I- I think

I hear the river this way. Yeah.

Come on.

God didn't give you a pair of balls?

How about we take a break?

We have to find food.

If we prove that we're the best at it...
