Good luck, brother. [CHUCKLES]
Keep your wits about you, Michael.
Would love a little competition this year.
BEAR: This is Bear Grylls coming to you
from Costa Rica,
and the 2015 Adventure Racing World Championship.
Be waiting for you at the finish line, Decker.
[PEOPLE CHEERING]
All right. Helen's with me. Let's go!
BEAR: Michael Light is arguably
the best adventure racer to never win a championship.
Michael and his team are compelling contenders
along with defending champions Team Arc'Teryx.
Why aren't they paddling?
Because they're weak.
Don't worry about them. Just keep paddling!
BEAR: No matter how good Michael's team is,
he always manages to come up short.
Some might say he's his own worst enemy.
Michael, the tide's going out to the ocean.
We'll be paddling like hell for nothing.
Even Arc'Teryx is sitting it out.
We could still win if we're patient.
Helen, you're nav. What do you think?
Leo, just shut up and paddle!
Trust your team, Michael! [GRUNTS]
Come on.
Come on!
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Shit.
It's salty!
Tide's taking us in the wrong direction!
MICHAEL: Just go with it!
We should turn around!
Leo! Just keep paddling harder!
[TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES]
[GRUNTING]
Running out of water, Michael.
[ALL GRUNTING]
JOHN: Can't paddle in the mud, Michael!
MICHAEL: It's okay, John!
All right, just keep going!
We're gonna pull 'em for now,
and when the tide comes in, we're back in business!
This isn't the end! Let's go!
[JOHN COUGHS]
Drink this. Michael.
He needs some help.
An IV at the least.
- An IV? Are you crazy? - Michael!
That's a four-hour penalty. No way.
It's not happening. Stick him in my kayak.
I'll pull him myself.
Are you outta your goddamn mind?
Look around you! Look at your team!
[SOFTLY] You gotta be shitting me.
He's so weak.
Don't blame your bad decisions on your team, Michael.
- [PANTING] - [PHONE BEEPS]
Yeah, the whole world's gonna see this.

It's pink. Can I?
Well, of course you can.
But just do my nails, okay?
Not my mustache and my eyebrows this time.
[GIRL CHUCKLES]
MICHAEL: Hello. [SIGHS] HELEN: Hey.
[MICHAEL EXHALES HEAVILY]
Did you have anything to do with this?
HELEN: Wow. That's a beautiful color.
Yeah? You should see my toes.
I'm gonna get her some coloring books.
When did she fall in love with nail polish?
HELEN: I have no idea.
Definitely doesn't get it from me.
MICHAEL: Huh.
Your bloody socks and muddy shoes
- are still by the door. - Just went for a run.
You've seen worse, right?
Only when I was in training.
So you're allowed to stay in perfect, beautiful,
amazing shape, and I'm just supposed to get soft?
Your flattery won't work.
Then what will?
You going to work.
All right.
- I'll see you later. - Michael.
- What? - Where's the shirt?
The shirt? Which shirt?
The shirt your dad asked you to wear.
I can't.
Come on. [CHUCKLES] Wear the shirt.
MICHAEL: Mwah! I don't even think he'll notice.
- Bye! - Bye.
[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]

Wow. That's a busy day.
Oh, it was crazy, nonstop.

CHARLIE: Mm.
Where's your shirt?
- Really? - Yeah. Your shirt.
Do you know what it's like wearing
a shirt with your name on it?
Yeah. Yeah, I do. [CHUCKLES]
Gotta wear the shirt.
Hmm. You know, well, this is interesting.
- [CHUCKLING] - What?
All these signatures have the same handwriting
- and they're all left-handed. - [SIGHS]
Yeah, well, people don't want to sign in, all right?
You're spamming them with marketing crap.
It's invasive. I'm not a salesman.
- Okay, okay. - I show 'em the house.
I don't wanna jam it down their throat.
If they like it, they'll make an offer.
Can I have my cards back, please?
[SOFTLY] Oh, my God.
- Here you go, Detective. - Just look at that.
- Look at that. - Cracked the case.
- Wow. - Jesus Christ.
"I'll sell you a house you can build a home in."
Oh, your mother.
Your mom came up with that.
- I remember. - Yeah, me too.
[SMACKS LIPS] People wanna put down roots, Mikey.
And?
You, on the other hand, spend all your time
- trying to pull 'em up. - That's not true, all right?
I have a wonderful family.
I have a home. I have a lot of stuff going on.
There's more riding on a marriage
than just a house, you know.
My marriage is fine.
Did Helen say something to you?
No, I know. All right? Time out. Time out.
I know what you're doing,
because I did the same thing myself in the service.
You know, you're either chasing a rush,
or you're longing for something,
you're denying yourself. It doesn't matter.
But either way, it's not fair to Helen and Ruby.
You know, that's real easy for you to say.
- Why is that? - Well, you got out
of the military with a chestful of medals, right?
I washed up mid-race on shore.
I didn't even make it to the finish line.
Well, the grass in your yard
is only as green as you grow it.
You should put that on your sign.
That's a good idea. I'll get right on that.
You like the name on your shirt, right?
You like the medals on your chest?
What's wrong with me wanting the same thing?
Where do you think I got it from?
Just don't be selfish, Mikey.

It's called a sear.
Oh, right.
[MICHAEL SCOFFS]
You're missing the view.
MICHAEL: I'm sorry.
Look at this.
Michael, that photo is three years old.
Yeah, well, my dad makes it seem like it was yesterday.
- So? - What do you mean "so?"
It has 182,000 likes of me stuck in the mud.
Yeah, and?
And I raced for 19 years.
That's what I'm remembered for.
- Where are you? - I'm right here.
No, you're not.
You're in a jungle somewhere,
beating yourself to death with some magical finish line.
Well, that's what I do, okay? Racers race.
I was a racer, and now I'm a mom.
And, so, just like that I'm done?
No, this is not how it ends for me.
[MEAT SEARING]
Oh, shit. [SIGHS] I burned the steak.
No, a perfect sear like always.
MICHAEL: Yeah. [SIGHS]
You know, this doesn't define you.
[SIGHS]
Make some calls, Michael.
Just see who's out there.
Make some visits and go get a sponsor.
- Are you serious? - Yeah.
Racers race, right?
MICHAEL: Are these friends of yours?
What's all this?
MAN: Silicon Valley glamping expedition.
They pretend like they're roughing it for a night,
and I make sure the s'mores and pinot noir are ready.
What, and people pay for this?
Yeah.
I'm kind of a tour guide.
Don't look at me like that. It's good money, man.
It's about time for me and Molly
to move out of the beach shack and build a real house.
Putting together a new team for the world championships
in the Dominican Republic.
Spare no expense.
- Michael, I... - Chik, one more win
and you're the oldest world champion ever.
Endorsement deals alone
are gonna get you and Molly out of this shack,
and you can build whatever house you want.
Not to mention you get to put a medal
around your neck in front of Decker Swanson.
He dropped you the minute you showed a limp.
You have sponsors?
I will.
How's the knee holdin' up?
Don't worry about the knee. I'll be fine.
I'm not worried about the knee.
I'm worried about my future.
WOMAN: Excuse me, sir?
It's getting windy,
and the sand is getting in everything.
Is there something we can do about that?
Hey, man. Are the s'mores ready yet?
I'm friggin' starving.
CHIK: Yeah, I'm coming.
Time to make the s'mores, Chiki.
I'd help you, but...
[CHUCKLES] I can't do anything about the wind.
- [LAUGHS] - Good luck with that one.
I'll see you soon.
[TAPS ON TABLE]
WOMAN: Michael, when we look at your results,
we see a lot of top tens, but not a lot of victories.
MICHAEL: Zero, actually.
WOMAN: We're used to our clients winning.
My sponsors always were well represented.
Then why'd they all leave you?
Well, you'd have to ask them.
I'm asking you.
Well, [SIGHS] had a baby. Took some time off.
Look, this is a very unique opportunity
for you at Broadrail.
I have a new team lined up, which I'm very excited about.
First one there is Chik, William Chikerotis.
He's a four-time world champion
that'll serve as my navigator.
He was with Team Arc'Teryx for years.
Oh, we know. He's a legend. And he's even older than you.
Oh, he can still race, trust me. [CHUCKLES]
He's even leaving his team to race with me.
Michael, I mean,
we all know he was dropped by his team, right?
Bad knee?
Who else?
Olivia Baker.
Daughter of the Hugo Baker.
Trains in Hawaii year-round.
One of the best climbers I've ever seen.
[AMBIENT MUSIC PLAYING]
[BIRDS CHIRPING]
Heel hook!
OLIVIA: [ON RADIO] I can't hear you.
HUGO: The hell you can't!
You're gonna have to ***** louder.
[CHUCKLES]
You're the only one that listens to me, Spike.
Excuse me.
- Are you Hugo Baker? - Maybe.
Well, I had a poster of you climbing
the Half Dome in my room growing up.
Actually inspired me to climb it myself
a couple years ago.
- Michael Light. - I know who you are.
She's pretty good, huh?
She would be if she gave a whale's hump.
You got a spare harness?
I'd like to go say hello.
HUGO: [ON RADIO] You've got a visitor.
OLIVIA: What?
[GRUNTING]
Hey. Nice office.
Michael Light. Let me guess.
The Dominican, and you need a woman.
I need you.
What about Helen?
Fully retired. She's a full-time mom now.
Well, sorry. I've given up racing.
- I've given up climbing. - Really?
Wow. I mean, you could've fooled me.
Well, I do it for him. It makes him happy.
Go make him happy. Win a world championship.
HUGO: Hey, Michael.
- You gonna finish this year? - [OLIVIA SIGHS]
Yeah, I'm gonna finish.
And with your daughter, I'm gonna win.
HUGO: What do you think, old boy?
[SPIKE GRUNTS]
I agree.
Olivia, you need to go.
Will you make an old man happy and go race?
Would ya?
MICHAEL: I need this.
And maybe you do, too.
Well, if the man says "race," then let's race.
I gotta run.
See you down there!
And my fourth here is a young guy I found...
Whoa, whoa, whoa. What about Leo Sun?
He was a part of your team the last go-around.
Why not use him?
Well, Leo races for all the wrong reasons.
Self-promotion, glory.
Well, what would be the right ones?
Like, why do you race, Michael?
Leo has over 1,000,000 followers on Instagram
and almost as many on Twitter.
Leo's not a good idea.
I... I have to agree with John.
All right. Well, what is this
unique opportunity gonna cost us?
Well, to do it right,
I need to get to the Dominican Republic
at least four weeks early to train and acclimate
to the heat and the humidity, so...
You need four weeks for that?
No, I need six to eight, but I'll make it work.
- TUCKER: How much? - $100,000.
How much sponsor money did you get in the last race
when you only lasted one day?
JOHN: Hey, um...
I'll meet you outside, Michael.
You know, my senior year in high school,
I was cut from the football team.
Three months later, I was cut from the basketball team.
And then at baseball tryouts,
the coach told me that I was just wasting his time.
So I left the field,
but instead of going home, I started running.
All right? I ran 15 miles in my baseball cleats
and I wore them down to the soles.
Four hours later, my feet were bleeding,
and I had a stress fracture in my shin,
and I had to call my mom to come and pick me up
because I was lost.
And the next day, I did it again.
And again the day after that.
And you know what I learned?
I learned that I could embrace pain.
Buckets of it.
All right? I learned that suffering is a skill
and that I can suffer more than anyone
- or anything else. - Michael.
No, no. He wants to know why I race.
You wanna know why I race?
Because I wanna show people
that I have what it takes to win.
All right? So you keep your money.
I'll find another way.
And then you'll know just why I race.
And you'll be hanging my picture right there
on the center of that wall, I promise you that.
Thank you for your time.
He's crazy.
There's only a handful of people
who know what five days racing
the roughest terrain on earth is like.
And nobody knows that more than Michael.
Out there, it is about surviving.
Tucker, he's a survivor.
[JOHN SIGHS]
JOHN: Jesus, Michael.
I'm sorry.
$50,000.
Can't race on that.
And Leo has to be your fourth.
- What? - They're counting on
the social media side to justify the funds.
Oh, my God. Leo and I haven't even spoken since Costa Rica.
Brother, that's the offer.
So, I'm supposed to be racing for social media views now?
[CHUCKLES] If you wanna race, yeah.
[SOFTLY] Oh, my God.
[OUT OF MY MIND BY WEV PLAYING ON SPEAKERS]
MAN: All right. Nice one.
Sorry, this is a closed set.
- Closed for what? - It's a private photo shoot.
I'm looking for Leo Sun.
- PHOTOGRAPHER: Chin down. - [CAMERA CLICKING]
Never mind. I see him.
Thanks.
Hey, Michael!
- What's going on, man? - MICHAEL: Hey.
LEO: Wanna jump in a couple of shots with me?
No. No, I'm good.
PHOTOGRAPHER: Okay, we're taking five, everybody.
LEO: Still mad about those mud posts from Costa Rica?
That you posted all over Instagram? No.
I'm not on it.
Are you sure?
Yeah. Right, right.
MICHAEL: So, what's all this?
Oh, it's my new line of outdoor streetwear.
It's called Restart. One word.
I think "Restart" is already one word, no?
Well, in six months, Michael,
there won't be any doubt of that, trust me.
It's all about brand now.
They'll follow wherever the money goes, you know?
I thought it was about racing.
Well, there's a time in life to move on.
I wouldn't know. Racers race.
Hmm. Winners win too, right?
Yeah. Would've been good for your brand.
Would've been great for the brand, but, uh,
I think I'm doing okay now.
So race with me this year.
I got everything set up.
Sponsors, Chikerotis, and Olivia Baker.
All we need is you.
Baker? That Hugo Baker's daughter?
- Yeah. - Guy was a beast.
Well, she's in, and she's as good as him.
How's Chiki's knee?
- It's good. He's ready. - Mm.
You got it all figured out, huh?
- We're ready, Leo. - Thank you.
Your sponsors said you had to bring me on, didn't they?
- They want my followers. - Yeah.
That's exactly it.
But what happens to all this
when the fact that you've never won anything
catches up with you?
I mean, is anybody gonna click on someone
who's no longer relevant?
Tell me you blew it last time.
Tell me your ego, and your selfishness,
and you not listening to me cost us that race.
Yeah, Leo. I blew it.
And this year?
It's my team, Leo.
But I'm gonna give you a voice.
It's gonna be a loud one.
It always is.
Just don't show up wearing makeup, okay?
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
[MAN SPEAKING SPANISH ON LOUDSPEAKER]
[CAR HORNS HONKING]
MICHAEL: How's the knee, Chiki?
Wishing it had been here a couple of weeks earlier,
as you promised.
Hey. We're gonna get in three climbs
over 6,000 feet before the race, all right?
Three climbs, and we're supposed to be ready?
Hey, get used to it, Chiki. We're racing on a budget now.
MICHAEL: My bag.
- Hey, everything okay? - Yeah, fine.
MICHAEL: You sure? You got all your stuff?
- Yeah, we're good. - BELLBOY: Hey!
- [BELLBOY SPEAKS SPANISH] - OLIVIA: Hey, it's okay.
He said, "Damn dogs."
There's thousands of dogs in the streets,
- and they're sick with rabies. - LEO: Oh, lovely.
What the hell happened to our training time?
Decker has been here for weeks.
Is this what I have to expect with you in charge?
We're here now, all right?
Let's just make the best of it.
We're gonna be okay.
I need to check in. Team Broadrail. Michael Light.

Humidity's gotta be, like, 99%.
Chiki, how's the knee?
- Okay. - MICHAEL: You sure?
- Yes. - All right.
- Just take it easy. - DECKER: Hey, Michael!
- Oh. - CHIK: Oh, no.
OLIVIA: Who's that guy? DECKER: Hey! [CHUCKLES]
MICHAEL: That's Team Arc'Teryx.
Are those kids?
Hey, Deck, what took you so long?
Kids, say hello to Uncle Chikerotis.
- You remember him. - KID: Hi, Uncle Chik.
You know, we've been waiting for ya.
Michael, I thought you were retired, mate.
Kids wanted to hike with us today.

BEAR: Adventure racing is the most intense
- team sport known to man. - [SIGHS]
Over the next five to ten grueling days,
these athletes will cross 435 miles
performing a mix of disciplines
including trekking, climbing,
biking and kayaking.
Fifty-four teams from 30 countries
have descended upon this great island nation,
each vying for the elusive world title
in what is certain to be the biggest physical
and mental challenge these racers have ever faced.
A unique feature of adventure racing
is that teams can carve their own distinct paths
to designated transition areas.
Where teams are forced to change disciplines,
navigation becomes crucial.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
- [ANNOUNCER SPEAKING SPANISH] - [PARTY HORN BLOWING]
[CROWD CHEERING]
BEAR: In roughly five days' time,
we will crown the 2018 world champions.
[CHEERING CONTINUES]
Hey. Get it in. Get it in.
All right, come here. Guys...
Chiki's got a great plan, all right?
We got some good climbs in. We're ready.
Yeah, and he only threw up once on the last one, huh?
- [LAUGHS] That you know about. - LEO: Good luck, Chiki.
There's a steep section in the second half,
so I think we can find some shortcuts through it
if we're willing to take some risks.
So, a sleepless first half followed by a sleepless sprint
through a steep and deadly second half.
Would you want it any other way?
- LEO: Hell no. - [CHIK CHUCKLES]
All right, listen. We all know
the first rule of adventure racing is
anything can happen out there.
No matter what we encounter, we accept it,
and we embrace it, and we keep going.
We push, and we suffer,
and we win.
That's gonna be the difference, all right?
Who's gonna want it more.
We didn't come here for second place.
We came here for first.
My dad is dying of cancer.
Olivia, when? Why didn't you say anything?
I didn't wanna race, but he insisted, all right?
I'm here because of him,
and every day here is a day not with him.
So it has to be worth it. For him.
All right. For him.
For us. For everyone important to us.
- Yes. Yes, Michael. - I love you guys.
We make our legacies in the next five days.
It's my last chance. This is your last chance.
Let's do this. Let's do this for your dad, okay?

LEO: Hey, Chik!
CHIK: Oh, shit.
According to the map, this is a trail.
LEO: What do we do now?
[PANTING] We climb.
- What, with our bikes? - OLIVIA: Oh, yeah.
Just follow me.
[UNEASY MUSIC PLAYING]
[LEO GRUNTS]
[WIND HOWLING]
CHIK: This is crazy.
OLIVIA: Chik, I thought you were all about shortcuts.
CHIK: Yeah, but I wanna get there alive.

- [METAL CLACKS] - [CHIK GRUNTS]
OLIVIA: Just breathe.
- [FOOT SLIPS] - [GRUNTS]
LEO: You know,
I think this calls for a little selfie-time.
- OLIVIA: Leo, really? - [CHIK GRUNTS]
Whoa, whoa. Hey, Chik, you all right?
- [CAMERA CLICKS] - CHIK: Yeah.
OLIVIA: It's okay. You got it.

[BIRDS SQUAWKING]
MICHAEL: I thought you'd given up climbing.
Old habits die hard when you're awesome.
LEO: Hey! This isn't the route on the map.
CHIK: I told you. It's a shortcut.
Everyone else has to go the long way around.
- You sure this is gonna work? - CHIK: Not for a second.
Hey, what's "peligro" mean?
CHIK: It means "welcome" in Spanish.
[OLIVIA CHUCKLES]
OLIVIA: Whoo.
LEO: Oh, yeah. OLIVIA: Yeah.
MICHAEL: Oh, there we go.
CHIK: You have your trolley, Leo?
We sure about this?
Well, it's adventure racing, right?
CHIK: Oh, yeah.
How, uh... How long do you think this has been here?
I don't know.
Don't worry. Chiki's gonna be our guinea pig.
- CHIK: Of course. - You follow him,
and Olivia and I will go up the rear.
OLIVIA: Got it.
MICHAEL: Well, it's not that high.
Wait till you get out there.
I don't know, guys.
This looks pretty unsafe to me.
Only one way to find out.
- Are you ready? - MICHAEL: Let 'er rip, Chiki.
[CHIK LAUGHING]
- Whoo! - [AMBIENT MUSIC PLAYING]
Yee-ha!
Come on, Leo! [LAUGHS]
Would you look at that.
The old man's got a set of church bells for nuts.
- [LAUGHS] - CHIK: Whoo-ha!
Go, Chiki!
CHIK: Yee-ha!
[CHIK LAUGHING]
Yeah!
All right, Leo, you're up. Let's go.
Hey, Chiki. Watch this.
This one's for you, baby.
Yeah! [CHUCKLES]
Whoo!
Yeah!
Whoo! Whoo-hoo!
CHIK: Come on, Leo!
You can do it!
Yeah, baby!
How'd you like that, Michael?
[LAUGHING]
Whoo-hoo-hoo!

Hey, Michael!

I'm not going anywhere, though!
- [TROLLEY SQUEAKING] - I'm coming!
Too fast, Michael!
[SOFTLY] ****.
Hit the brakes!
Coming in a little hot.
[GRUNTS]
Ooh!
Well,
another nice office, huh?
Yeah. I think I have to pee.
Well, you might wanna hold that
till we get you down, huh?
Look, can you spin around and go hand over hand?
OLIVIA: Uh...
No. Cable's shot.
I've got nothing to roll on.
MICHAEL: Shit. All right.
Well, I'm gonna have to get past you somehow.
OLIVIA: How?
Well, [PANTING]
unfortunately, I'm gonna have to unhook for a minute.
Wait, what?
[SIGHS] Oh, God.
All right. I'm gonna unhook my carabiner,
swing it past you,
and then hook it back up, okay?
Wait. Why? Why...
While you dangle with your bike beneath you?
MICHAEL: Well, hopefully, yeah.
Well, that breaks every rule of climbing.
Well, it's a good thing we're not climbing.

- I'm good. I'm good. - All right.
That was easy. [BREATHING HEAVILY]
[GRUNTS]
[GROANS] I can't...
I can't get close enough to you.
- It's too much of an incline. - Well, maybe I can unhook
and shimmy down to you.
No, no. The cable's too slippery.
You know what?
All right. I got an idea.
It's gonna sound crazy,
- but trust me. - Okay.
I'm gonna swing you my bike.
- You attach to that, okay? - Your bike?
What? Uh...
Uh, okay. I mean...
That's crazy.
Shit.
All right. Ready?
Yeah.
- [GRUNTS] - [OLIVIA GRUNTS]

This will hold, right?
- Yeah, no doubt. - Yeah, no doubt?
- Look, it's gonna hold. - Uh, stop! Stop!
I'm sorry.
Look. You're gonna have to release at some point.
Okay?
It sounds like it's crazy, but trust me, it's gonna work.
This is gonna put a lot of force on your rig.
I'm okay. Don't worry about me.
Just take a deep breath.
Whenever you're comfortable, release.
All right. [EXHALES]

You're out of your mind, you know that?
OLIVIA: Yeah. [CHUCKLES]
Don't tell my dad about this, okay?
I don't think I would've done it!

I got her. Hey, Hugo'd get a laugh
- out of that one, huh? - OLIVIA: That was a first.
- [LEO LAUGHS] - CHIK: Come on!
[DOG GRUNTS, PANTING]
BEAR: An impressive move by Team Broadrail
to take the path less-traveled.
They've significantly narrowed the gap to Team Arc'Teryx,
and they might be able to conserve some energy here.
All right. That's ten teams we just put
in the rearview mirror, Chiki!
Nice call on the zip line, buddy!
CHIK: We're here!
OLIVIA: Team Broadrail!
MICHAEL: All right.
Hey. Tough trek comin' up.
- Get plenty to eat, all right? - CHIK: Oh, yeah.
Hey, that old Chiki sure knows how to keep those wits, huh?
You'll be hauling his pack in no time, Michael.

Here.
- It's here. - [OLIVIA EXHALES]
MICHAEL: That wasn't too bad, huh?
LEO: [SIGHS] Selfie.
MICHAEL: Now for the hard part.
CHIK: Yeah, funny.
[SIGHS]
- Chik. Chik. - Oh, thank you.
Hey, I think we'll need more than the hour of sleep
we planned on, all right?
We've had five hours in three days.
We really need more?
Take it easy, all right? Relax.
- How're we doing? - LEO: Four or five teams.
- That's all I saw. - Anybody head out yet?
Not that I know of.
Hey, guys. Look.
- It's Team Arc'Teryx. - LEO: What?
OLIVIA: You gotta be kidding me.
- [CHIK CHUCKLES] - I thought we'd be
way behind here.
Yeah, well, we're not.
Chiki?
CHIK: They're letting everyone use GPS here.
If we're willing to take some chances,
we can really put this away.
LEO: What kind of chances?
Whatever "chances" Chiki says.
[CHUCKLES] Yeah. Whatever it takes, right?
MICHAEL: How much rest you need?
Thirty-five minutes, okay?
We're gonna take 35 minutes to rest. That's it. Let's go.

DECKER: Hey, Chik.
Did you see the list of things to watch out for on this leg?
CHIK: No! Tell us, Deck!
Crocodiles, tarantulas, and snakes. Lots of snakes.
You don't mind snakes, do you, Chik?
You know I hate snakes.
DECKER: Yeah, must have forgotten.
Well, keep a sharp eye.
[DOG GROWLS SOFTLY]
Oh, shit!
- Hey, you all right? - OLIVIA: What is that?
CHIK: A snake! It's a snake!
Oh, man!
[LEO LAUGHING]
Yeah, it's a snake, all right. It looks really poisonous!

Looks real nasty! [LAUGHING]
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
OLIVIA: Another fun fact.
During prohibition, these trails were used
to transport alcohol made from sugarcane.
CHIK: I could use a pint of anything right now.
What is it?
CHIK: Nothing. Just twisted my knee in the mud.
MICHAEL: What? Well, give me your pack for a little bit.
Take a break.
Hey. It's okay!
Give me the pack for a bit. Take a break.
I've never given up my pack.
First time I've ever given up my pack, man.
Then blame me for the lack of training, okay?
Already am.
Guys, what are we... What are we doing here?
Come on.
MICHAEL: You all right?
- CHIK: Shit. - You okay?
- Come here. Come here. - [CHIK GROANS]
Let's stop here and check our gear.
CHIK: Oh, man. Sorry.
LEO: Michael, we're losing time.
I said let's just check our gear, okay?
- Take it easy. - LEO: Yeah, sure. Whatever.
Come on, take all the time you need.
What are you doing?
Oh, I'm just documenting this amazing journey.
You know what? Actually, that's a good idea.
Let me get a shot with you in it.

It's gonna be amazing! Come here.
- Okay. - MICHAEL: It's cool, right?
- Ready? - LEO: Yeah.
- Bye! - LEO: Hey!
[LAUGHING]
The hell is the matter with you?
Hey, what the hell is your problem?
MICHAEL: What's it gonna be, Leo?
The phone or the race?
Are you stupid? The phone is the race!
No, Leo, it's not!
Do you really think we're gonna win this thing?
Are you delusional?
We are gonna win. Even if I gotta drag
or carry your *** across the finish line,
- we're gonna win. - LEO: You're carrying me?
Who's carrying who, huh?
Who begged me to be on their team
because they couldn't get a sponsor?
No Leo, no money. Remember?
I told you what you wanted to hear to get you out here.
I don't give a shit about the sponsors.
You're here now. What are you gonna do?
You gonna go home? Go home. Walk!
- I don't give a shit anymore. - OLIVIA: Guys.
So sick and tired of you. Such a friggin' liar.
- Did you know about this? - MICHAEL: About what?
Don't bullshit me!
Did you know about Chik's knee?
Yes. Yes, I did.
So Decker knew exactly what he was doing, huh?
Yeah, you're so full of shit, Michael.
CHIK: Give me the pack back. MICHAEL: Ignore him.
CHIK: Give me the pack, Michael!
MICHAEL: Ignore him! I have the pack.
LEO: No, no! Give the legend his pack back, Michael.
- OLIVIA: Hey! - You know as well as I do,
he'd run circles around you with one leg!
- That's bullshit! - Will you shut up?
- Stop it! - We're not gonna win without
- Chiki. I know that for sure. - [DOG BARKING]
OLIVIA: There's a dog.
What are you talking about?
OLIVIA: There's the dog again.
[DOG GRUNTS]
That's the dog I gave the meatballs to.
- You gave it food? - MICHAEL: Yeah.
Three days and 200 miles ago.
Look at his back. It's been beaten.
You following us, boy?
LEO: That's impossible.
Go home. You're gonna die out here.
LEO: Michael, leave the stupid dog,
- and let's go. Come on. - MICHAEL: I can't stop him
- from following us! [CHUCKLES] - [DOG GRUNTS]
LEO: We're already hours behind,
Chik has got one good leg,
and you're worried about a stupid dog.
That thing will be dead by morning.
MICHAEL: Leo, nobody's worrying about the dog.
I told you, we're gonna win this.
Hey!
Come on. I'll keep your pack for a little bit longer, okay?
CHIK: GPS stage is coming up.
I can't navigate from the rear.
OLIVIA: I'll do it. I can do it.
Good, good. Now let's get going.
- Can you walk? - CHIK: Yeah.
- All right. Let's get going. - CHIK: Go ahead. Go.
MICHAEL: Come on.
Take your time. Don't listen to him.

- [DOGS BARKING] - [INDISTINCT CHATTERING]
LEO: Oh, great! More dogs. Just what we need.
CHIK: Look at him.
He doesn't even care about the other dogs.
Okay. Lots of ups and downs coming up,
but I can't... I can't see a trail anywhere.
CHIK: I was thinking, through the forest.
OLIVIA: Oh, yeah.
CHIK: It's gonna get hairy though.
Hey, Michael. Give me the pack.
[BARKING]
MICHAEL: You sure? CHIK: Yeah, I'm okay.
Yeah, over there. You see?
[TEAM GRUNTING]
[ROUSING MUSIC PLAYS]
MICHAEL: What do you think?
OLIVIA: Well, we haven't even gone a mile
in the last five hours.
CHIK: I'm hoping we just cut ten miles off the course.
LEO: Yeah, and that nobody else
has the balls to try this route.
[SCOFFS] Speak for yourself.
What is that? Is that a path?
CHIK: It's the right direction, guys.
What does it look like? What do you think?
Looks pretty clear to me. Come on!
[DOG GRUNTS]
Leo!
Leo.
- [BARKING] - CHIK: Come on, Olivia.
Let's go.
[DOG CONTINUES BARKING]
[GROWLS]
What's your problem? Hey, move.
- You dumb dog! - MICHAEL: Hey. Hey, hey, hey.
[BARKING]
- What the hell's goin' on? - LEO: Michael, would you move
your damn dog?
What is it, boy?
What's goin' on?
[SNARLING AND BARKING]
What's he doing?
LEO: I don't know.
[DOG CONTINUES BARKING]
Whoa, whoa. You feel that?
Air. Breeze.
You feel it?
- Yeah. - Whoa, whoa.
- [OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYS] - LEO: Oh, shit.
Did that dog just...
Oh, shit.
- Yeah. - LEO: Damn it.
CHIK: Damn!
- [LEO LAUGHS] - MICHAEL: Huh?
Look at that.
Hey! Hey.
I told you it was a good idea to bring him along.
[LAUGHS, SIGHS]
[SOFTLY] Saved your ***.
Hey.
Extra meatballs for you, my friend.
Thank you.
How about that, Chiki?
CHIK: How did he know?
[BIRDS CHIRPING]
[LEO PANTING]
Can't believe I almost walked right off that cliff.
Yeah, but you didn't.
LEO: [SIGHS] Because of a dog.
That dog.
CHIK: My wife lives in a shack, so I can do this.
Is that crazy or what?
MICHAEL: Well, she knows what keeps you alive, Chiki.
CHIK: We never had kids because of it.
I'm pretty damn selfish sometimes.
It will be nice to focus on something else
when this is over.
[OLIVIA GROANS]
OLIVIA: Well, the ladies at the mani-pedi place
are gonna love this.
Can you walk?
[OLIVIA GROANS]
OLIVIA: What are my options? [SCOFFS]
CHIK: Well, the river helps.
Another trek over that ridge,
and there is another river that we cross
that goes in between here and there.
Doesn't look any easier than what we just did, though.
Well, at least it's light out.
- Yeah. - How's the food situation?
A few bars.
It won't last us the, what,
five hours we have left of this section?
- At least. - OLIVIA: Right.
- Chiki. - CHIK: What?
- How's that dog here? - What do you mean?
How did that dog get here?
Look, this is where I fed the dog at TA One, right?
CHIK: Mm-hmm. MICHAEL: Okay.
This is where he met back up with us.
Right there.
How the hell did he get
all the way from here to there?
Right? While we were on bikes,
and zip lines, and hiking, and running, and climbing.
Now, how the hell did he do that?
He must have wings we don't know about.
MICHAEL: Yeah, that was my first guess.
Where you going, boy?
Hey! What're you doing?
Hey. We should go, too.
Yeah.
Maybe he's done all for us he can.
Yeah, I hate to say it,
but it's one less mouth to feed, right?
Yeah, I guess.
Guess we should just go, huh?
Save the food for a couple hours from now.
[CHIK GRUNTS]
Chik, how's the knee?
[CHUCKLES] What are my options?
[OLIVIA CHUCKLES]
OLIVIA: Oh, shit. LEO: Easy.
Michael, he saved our lives.
All right? We'll always remember that.
MICHAEL: Yeah.
[DOG BARKS]
Wait! Hey.
- He came back. - MICHAEL: Yeah!
LEO: Wonder what he was doing.
I guess a dog's gotta do what a dog's gotta do, huh?
He's a gentleman! Good boy.
He's just like a bear.
He shits in the woods.

Get some food in him.

He'll be okay.
You're gonna need more than just that.

Just eat a little bit of food.

- in your stomach, okay? - Oh, where's my bag?
Where's my bag?
See? Ask and you shall receive.
Hey, meatballs. I forgot I put these in there.
[LEO PANTING]
Eat.
MICHAEL: Hey, guys.
What do you think he went through
before he met us?
OLIVIA: Whatever it was, it wasn't good.
MICHAEL: Hasn't eaten since I fed him yesterday,
but he just sits there.
Smelling those meatballs,
not begging, letting us all eat.
Like a king.
You know what?
Give me some meatballs.
CHIK: There.
MICHAEL: There we go.
Look at that.
A meal fit for a king.
You know what?
I think we should call him Arthur.
Huh?
Arthur the King.
And Leo the Prince.
- [ALL LAUGHING] - Huh?
Get out of my face, Michael. Let's go.

He saved me, okay? I owed him.
Are you crazy? You needed those.
How far to the TA?
Across the...
A mile up the river, and then we're there.
Let's just get him in the water and cool him off.
- Come on. - OLIVIA: Yeah.
Come on, boy.
Come on.
- Hey, Chik? - CHIK: Yeah.
MICHAEL: Do the rules say we can cross
- the river by boat? - CHIK: Sure they do.

We need to get him to the Transition Area,
otherwise we're in real trouble.

- Let's go. Come on. - CHIK: Yes, come on!
- Come on. We did it. - MICHAEL: How much?
OLIVIA: No charge. She saw us, and I think
- she felt sorry for us. - What?
CHIK: Are you okay? LEO: Yeah.
MICHAEL: Great job. OLIVIA: Thank you.
High school Spanish, you know?
CHIK: Drink. Drink!
- LEO: I'm okay. - Don't worry, you're okay.
- That's a nice boat. - Have some more water.
Open up.
- All right. Come on. - [COUGHS]
- Get him on. - OLIVIA: Leo first.
MICHAEL: Get him on. Get in. Okay, sit.
All right, come on, boy.
Come on. Get him on. Get him on.
Okay. All right, come on, boy. Get in.

BEAR: Team Broadrail has traveled over 200 miles
and they found a companion.
That canine is looking stronger
than some of the team members at this point.
Hey, medic! We need a medic!
Here! Here.
- Here. - Dehydration.
I can get fluids in him orally,
but he really should have an IV.
No, that's four hours we can't afford.
Well, theoretically, we can just go.
He can rest, and we can paddle him.
I can paddle. I can paddle.
- Hey. Where is everybody else? - You're the first.
MICHAEL: What? CHIK: What?
We're the first team here?
By a lot, from what I've been hearing.
Team Arc'Teryx is next.
- Your idea worked. - MICHAEL: Hey.
CHIK: You guided us. We made it.
MICHAEL: We can do this. Leo, hey.
- LEO: Give me 20 minutes. - Relax.
- LEO: I got it. - Relax, relax.
- LEO: I can paddle, I swear. - Relax.
Relax.
Now just look at me, okay? Let me see you.
- You okay? - LEO: I'm fine.
- I'm fine. - MICHAEL: No, no. Look at me.
Just give me 20 minutes. I'll be back on my feet.
Just give me some water.
- How you feeling right now? - I can paddle. I'm all right.
No, you're not. All right?
I'm not giving you a voice on this one.
- Give him the IV, okay? - LEO: Michael, no!
Listen to me, pal.
We've been through a lot together.
And for once, I am going to listen to you.
All right? Remember you said "winners win"?
I need you healthy to do that.
Okay?
I got you, Leo. You're one of us.
Just calm down. Relax.
Guys, look,
we're gonna get four hours of rest
that the other teams won't have,
and we get a healthy Leo. All right?
Even if they come and they go out right away,
they're gonna be hurting.
We can catch them on a 14-hour paddle.
This is our time, okay?
Yeah.
MICHAEL: Excuse me, miss? MEDIC: Mm-hmm.
Do you have a vet here? Somebody who could take
a look at this guy for me when you get a chance?
MEDIC: Sorry, we don't have any vets.
You gotta be kidding me.
- Hey, Leo. - I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
MICHAEL: No, no. Don't be sorry.
Thank you. Thank you for trusting me.
We got this now. Okay?
Come on. Get the rest you need.
You come and finish strong, all right?
Relax. Here's when you step up.
All right, everybody get some rest.
- Okay, buddy. Easy, easy. - [ARTHUR WHIMPERS]
Easy, easy, easy.
Oh, yeah. Easy.
Just cleaning up a little bit, okay?
- OLIVIA: Hey. - Hey.
How's Arthur doing?
Mm, hard to tell.
- How's Leo? - He's sleeping.
But he looks human again.
Well, that's good.
It was the right thing to do.
Yeah.
You okay?
Yeah.
When did you find out about your father?
Eight months ago.
Pancreas.
[SIGHS] They, uh...
They gave him a year.
I swore that after he, uh...
that I wouldn't do any of this again.
Not without him.
Maybe that's why he told you to race.
What more could he ask to leave behind
in this world than... than you?
Right? Doing what you both love?
Yeah. [CHUCKLES]
- He was right to make me come. - I'm glad you did.
- All right. [SIGHS] - Keep an eye on Leo.
- Get some rest. - Yeah.
All right? And something to eat.
- Yeah. - We'll be going soon.
Okay, buddy.
CHIK: Hey.
Hell of a last race.
MICHAEL: Yeah.
[CHIK GRUNTS]
Go get some ice on that knee.
Why the hell weren't we here earlier?
The truth?
The truth is none of the sponsors
would give me the money I needed to come earlier.
Also, the truth is...
I spent 25 grand of my own money
for the time that we did have here.
[INHALES] Out of your own pocket?
Um...
My wife's pocket.
My wife's savings. My family's savings.
Helen knows about this?
Chiki, this is my last chance.
That's it for me.
That's about the stupidest thing
I've ever heard.
I know.
[CHUCKLES] Helen? Really?
I always thought that she was the smart one.
Yeah, well, she married me, didn't she?
Oh, yeah. I forget this part. [LAUGHING]
That should have been a dead giveaway.
[BOTH LAUGHING]
Why the hell would you put your family in jeopardy?
Just to win a race?
For a trophy?
Your real trophies are at home
waiting for you to come back to them.
Now, that's a legacy, man.
Hey.
- I got your favorite. - Oh, hell no.
My last race meal is not gonna be those damn things.
You'll come around.
I keep it for you and the King. [LAUGHS]
- Hey. - What?
Be ready to go.
No worries. I'll be ready when you are.
[DOG BARKING]
[ARTHUR BARKING SOFTLY]
You're so gentle. Wow.
Hey, PAW Patrol.
Gonna sit there all day, or are we gonna
- go win this thing? - Wow, Sleeping Beauty.
You're alive.
You look good. How are you feeling?
Feel good. Feel ready.
- Wow, look who's there. - [CROWD CHEERS]
LEO: They look kinda tired.
MICHAEL: You don't. You're looking strong.
- You ready? - Oh, yeah.
MICHAEL: Guys, what took you so long?
I was worried about you. I thought you got lost.
DECKER: [CHUCKLES] Don't get excited, Michael.
We knew you guys had a penalty,
so we decided to go easy.
Make it a sporting race to the finish.
MICHAEL: I was just worried. You know, no Chiki.
I thought maybe you took a wrong turn. I don't know.
Huh. Don't worry about me, baby.
You know what, Decker?
- You look like shit. - DECKER: Yeah.
Says the guy who can't walk properly.
You carry the old man's pack, like I said?
CHIK: I needed some help. What's the problem?
I was honored to do it.
Ah, the famous dog.
Looks even worse than the rest of you.
MICHAEL: His name is Arthur.
Cute.
Maybe you all deserve each other.
Yeah. Yeah, we do.
He's hurting.
- Out of gas. - He's feeling it.
This is our chance, man.
All right, time to go.
Hey, buddy. Hey, come on. You okay?
Come on. Come on, we need you.
You can do this. Let's go. All right, guys, listen.
We got food, water, and gear for 14 hours,
but only gotta be out there for 12.
And then a short trek. And by trek,
I mean run, to the finish.
- Okay? - Damn right.
MICHAEL: Okay? This is it. This is the time.
It's an opportunity of a lifetime.
We take it. We take it now. All right? Hey, buddy.
- Come on, Arthur. I need you. - [ARTHUR GROANING]
I need you, King. You're gonna lead the way.
All right. Let's go. Come on.
Come on, boy. Let's go.
- Let's go. - CHIK: Let's go.
Adios, Decker.
HELEN: Ruby.
Come here. You have to see this.
RUBY: Daddy has a dog?
Michael,
what have you done?
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
BEAR: Well, it's all come down to this final stage
of these world championships.
Team Arc'Teryx and Team Broadrail,
plus their mascot, are neck and neck.
- All right, come on. - [LEO PANTING]
Hey, conserve your energy until we get to the kayaks,
- all right, Chik? - CHIK: Yeah.
LEO: I got you, Michael. We're good.
BEAR: There's gonna be one final push
- to the finish line. - MICHAEL: Come on, Chiki.
BEAR: Then we're gonna see who can endure the most pain
and take the crown.
MICHAEL: All right. Olivia and Chik in one.
Leo, me and you in the other.
We're gonna start off slow and smooth,
- get a nice rhythm. - CHIK: Yes.
Once we get going, we step on the gas,
and we don't let go, okay?
MAN: Hey, guys. You know that you cannot
bring the dog, right?
Listen, we heard about the dog
and have decided that it's not safe.
What do you mean? He's been with us the whole time.
MAN: Listen to me. Okay?
Over 30 miles of changing tides out there
in a boat that can barely fit two people
is too much liability, okay?
DECKER: Hey, Team Broadrail!
Chikerotis, loser buys the beer, mate.
Hey, hey.
We can win this. All right? Arc'Teryx is tired.
We've had four hours of rest that they haven't.
We'll blow 'em away in the water.
Remember why you came here.
- Yeah. - Let's win this.
Yeah, he's a survivor, right? He'll make it back.
- Oh, yeah. - LEO: Come on!
He'll be all right.
Hey.
You'll be okay. You hear me?
You have wings, remember?
[WHIMPERS]
I don't have a choice.
You understand that, right?
This means too much to too many people.
- [WHIMPERS] - Arthur, don't.
Please don't.
You'll be okay.
You'll be okay. You're Arthur.
You're the King. You can run this place.
Michael!
- It's now or never! - [ARTHUR WHINING]

Are you gonna be able to paddle with the dog?

We're gonna make it, Arthur. Come on.

Hey. Whoa, whoa. What's the matter?
- [ARTHUR PANTING] - Arthur, you okay?
Arthur?
[VET SPEAKING SPANISH]
What's he saying?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
What is it?
He has major wounds from abuse.
And the wounds are not just infected, but infested.
See that shell?
That's a parasite that's eating at his flesh,
and what's underneath, it's even more serious.
[VET SPEAKING SPANISH]
MAN: His teeth are rotted,
and we're sure that every bite that he takes
is very, very painful for him.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
MAN: Um...
We'll sedate him to clean the wounds.
But at this point, it's really about
making him feel comfortable.
Comfortable? For what?
If he's lucky, he'll live a few days.
That infestation is too vigorous,
and we really can't do
the kind of surgery that he needs.
[ARTHUR WHIMPERS WEAKLY]
Well, what about in the U.S.? I'm taking him home.
I really don't think that he'll make it.
Plus, you'll never get permission to take him.
Why would I need permission?
It's my dog. I'm taking him home.
MAN: I understand.
But the agricultural board at the airport
- will never let him out. - [SIGHS]
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
Um...
Michael, he...
he should die with dignity,
and we can give him that here.
MICHAEL: [SIGHS] I need to call my wife.
[INHALES] Buddy,
I'll be right there, okay? I'm not going anywhere.
I'm just gonna call home, okay?
I'll call home. I'll be right back.

They wanna put him down.
HELEN: Oh, Michael.
[SIGHS] Plus, I have to get the local government
to give him permission or something to take him out.
I don't know.
He's been through so much.
I really wish you and Ruby got to meet him.
He's different, Helen.
He's a sufferer. He's a fighter.
Just like you.
If you could ask him, what would he say?
I don't think he has any fight left.
I'll call you back.
I love you.
MAN: Doctor says it's time,
so we'll give you a few minutes to say goodbye.

Huh? Come on.
We'll find somewhere to lay down for a little while.

We're gonna have to stay somewhere.
Where do you wanna go? Huh?
Oh, God. Finally.

There's no way we would've beat you
on that paddle.
I mean, that race was yours to win.
Congratulations, old friend.
For what it's worth,
I'd share a pack with you any day, Chik.

I can't put him in that.
You think he's gonna sit up in first class?
In the cage, or he doesn't fly.
No, no, no. You don't understand.
He... He can't go into that cage.
He wouldn't even come into my hotel room.
He was terrified to come into the airport.
This dog... It's not that kinda dog, okay?
I can't put him in that cage.
I'm not gonna let him die alone.
He's gonna die in that ****ing cage!
I'm not gonna put him in there.
The dog either gets inside the cage,
or he's not getting on the plane.
MICHAEL: No, please.
He's not well. All right?
Six hours in the bottom of a plane is gonna kill him.
