Man Vs.

There's our boy.

Looks like he's ready

to make some TV magic.

God help us all.

Whoa, what did you guys do to the RV?

Oh yeah, it's from our

new marketing budget.

Our mobile billboard.

It's chilly.

Okay, let's do this,

come on, drive ahead.

Dad!

Dad, dad!

Sh*t, take this.

Hey.

Hey, you, get over here,

it's freezing out here.

What are you doing?

I made a video for you, so did mom.

So you're the little monkey...

...that stole my phone, I've been

looking everywhere for it.

Yeah, I wanted to make it a surprise.

Well, it is, sweet face, thank you.

I love you.

Okay, get inside, it's freezing.

Go go go go.

Hey, I'm sorry.

You weren't even gonna say goodbye.

I didn't wanna wake you guys up.

I just wanted to slip away, I'm sorry.

Be safe, okay.

It's gotta be hard

leaving sometimes, huh?

Yeah, sometimes.

Bill, how long we got?

Uh, about a seven hour drive.

Then we take a boat to

the middle of nowhere...

...where we leave you for dead.

This gives me plenty of time

to further establish...

...my dominance over my

poor younger brother here.

Oh, is that right?

Well, I've been practicing online

so you better watch out.

Game on.

Whoa, that one?

Is that really, that's the one

that you wanna move?

I'm just saying, that's

the way you wanna start it?

Are we gonna trash talk

each other in this game?

It's already over.

Smartass.

You can't survive

on just crab apples

Tastes just fine to me

You got to know where you're headin'

We never know where we're headin'

Oh oh no, we just ride and see

And do you live the good life

Oh Hell No

We got kids and a wife

Oh hell no

We live our life for the ride

Ooh ooh

Ooh ooh

All right, so, final recount.

All right, you got four GoPros,...

...one Blackmagic, one HTV

with night vision.

Oh, and here, lens wipes, use 'em.

I'm tired of lack of footage

'cause the lens is dirty.

Take it, take it.

Yes ma'am, Jesus.

Okay, so, final location recap.

We're gonna circle up with our guide...

...about 70 kilometers west of Temagami.

It's very very remote,

nothing for miles.

There's a little hunting camp

called Bearskin Lake...

...is the closest thing.

Used to be a logging mill.

Oh, apparently our guide lives there.

Great.

Topography?

Plenty of lakes of rivers,

some edible plants,...

...mushrooms, be careful.

You eat one lousy mushroom.

Memories of season one.

Well, let's not have a replay of that.

Yeah, but don't forget

to eat something gross.

The viewers love that.

I think you love that.

Yeah, I do, I really do.

But the viewers do too,...

...and this is a new

audience for us, so.

I think she's right.

She's right, this is our chance...

...to take this show really big.

Don't you worry, buddy,

Dougie's got it under control.

Well, I certainly hope so.

There's a lot riding on this.

Yeah, and I'm not ready for a real job.

Thanks for the overwhelming

confidence, guys.

You got this, I know, I know.

I'm feeling so, I'm feeling

the love, I'm feeling it.

Mind the door, buddy.

Last one in buys.

Not too long, guys,

days are shorter and shorter.

We gotta get out there.

Guys, I'm gonna hit the head.

Gonna give birth to

a calf out of my ass.

What the, Ange?

What is up?

I'm just gonna talk to somebody

about where our guide is.

All right, Bill, you do that.

It's a nice town.

You didn't happen

to notice a hospital...

...on the drive in, did you?

No, you'd be lucky to find

a bottle of aspirin here.

That's what I figured.

Great.

Hey, look, man, for the record--

I know that you're gonna go out there...

...and you are gonna do a great job.

We all do.

Well, all right, thanks, Slim.

What, you getting

all sentimental on me now?

No, I'm not, I'm just trying

to find a nice way to say it.

Terry, spit it out.

Just don't f*** this up.

Get us a real show--

You know, no more fart jokes,...

...no more goofball stuff

for me to cut around.

This network show deal

might be our chance...

...to make some real money.

And I don't want your ego

to get in the way of the team.

Hah.

I'm sorry, man.

I'm gonna go check on the gear.

Good, good chat.

F*** me.

Okay so, I found our guy.

He just got his breakfast,

just says he needs a little time.

Seriously?

I don't think that guy's

playing with a full six pack.

Bill, you realize,

I've gotta build a fire...

...and a shelter before

the sun goes down.

Yeah yeah yeah,

you wanna go talk to him?

Ah, Jesus.

Come on, do it, go, use

your star-studded charm.

Get him off his ass, come on.

You're an idiot.

Go.

His name is Duncan.

Duncan?

Yeah, that dude on the end.

Oh boy.

I'm Doug, Doug Woods.

Real pleasure to meet you, Mr. Woods.

Are you a fan of the show?

Would be if I had the cable.

Yeah, there's that.

So, you're pretty familiar

with these parts, huh?

This your hood?

Wouldn't be much of a guide if I wasn't.

So any expert advice?

What?

For a hotshot outdoorsman like yourself?

Heck, nothing I wouldn't tell myself...

...every time I go out in the bush.

Oh yeah, what's that?

That if I die, a bear will

probably find my body...

...way before any search party does.

I'll see ya on the boat, Mr. Woods.

Uplifting.

Good.

Yeah.

Angie, Terry, this is Duncan.

Duncan, Angie, Terry.

Hey, how's you doing?

Thank you.

This is some engine you got here, huh?

Oh.

Need a shallow draw to

navigate these waterways.

Comes in real handy in the back lakes...
