So, this is the episode where you're going to teach me
how to be an outdoorsy person. Okay.
And I wanna know why you love the outdoors so much.
Like, is it something spiritually for you that it provides?
Well, I grew up in Philly right in the middle of the city.
But in the summer sometimes,
we would go up to the Adirondack Mountains.
While sometimes at night it was a little bit, um, scary.
There was always something that was
just good for me, being a city kid
to kinda step outside
the noise and the congestion.
Mm-hmm.
And just see things, you know, that are natural.
I don't know, it just put me in a different headspace.
Okay.
I think that was just a...
Uhh, I feel like something fell.
Just a tree snake.
(laughing)
I gotta say this is nice.
I get why you hike.
♪♪
So, I told you
I'm afraid of heights.
Uh-huh.
And...
That's pretty high.
That's not what I wanted to hear from you.
(laughing)
But I might be able to conquer it if I do it
with someone by my side.
Uh-huh.
So, I was like, "Let's just
do a ropes course."
Okay.
Can you do that? You can-- like easy?
Ah, we'll see!
♪♪
I'm Kevin. Kevin, Leo.
How you doing?
Great to meet you.
Phoebe.
Now here's the thing.
Forget the height.
What you should be scared of is putting a harness on.
Okay.
It's not the most comfortable thing,
I'm not gonna lie.
Okay.
♪♪
Let's cinch the waist.
(Leo) Put your right arm back.
And left arm back.
Okay.
And then, you know,
make sure you got a little mobility.
There you go. (laughing)
Are you-- you're not gonna...
I wanna see Kevin do that. That's a partnership move.
Yeah, you gotta do the partnership move.
There we go, let's see it.
You gotta twerk.
(all laughing)
♪♪
Task-wise, you'll climb this ladder one at a time.
You'll decide who goes up first.
You're going first.
Do you wanna think about that or...?
So Kevin will go up first.
Together the idea would be to travel across the Tarzan vines
till both of you reach the other tree.
Okay, you got this, Phoebs.
This is easy.
You're strong, you're brave.
If Kevin can do this, you can too.
(roaring)
Oh, (bleep) this shit.
I've seen "Tremors"
and I'm not going out like this.
(Phoebe) All right, what's this stuff?
This is what's gonna hold you safe.
I'm a little nervous but I think
if I just settle for a second,
then I think I'll be okay.
Yeah, take your time.
Yeah.
Look at that, no hesitation.
(Phoebe) Oh, why is this ladder shaking so much?
Did it shake for you, Kev?
Uhh, no-- not really.
It was the holidays, okay, Kev?
I had a cake and pie.
(whispers) Jesus Christ.
(sighs) You make this look so easy.
I don't know if I can do this, Kev.
Come on, you can do it. You're there already.
But the... (sighs)
I hate this so much.
Uhh, ehh, huh.
Yeah, I just am truly terrified.
(Phoebe) Yeah.
I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't.
(sighs)
Yeah, I wanna come down.
Ugh, my arms are getting tired.
(Kevin) Maybe-- maybe I should show you what happens if I fall off.
Okay.
Just watch.
Ugh, okay.
(woman) You got this, Phoebe!
(all cheering)
♪♪
Oh, my gosh, I am so impressed with you right now.
Are you really? Yes.
(grunting)
(Kevin) There you go, there you go!
(all cheering)
Nice, nice!
(cheering and applause)
There she is!
This is the worst show ever!
(all laughing)
Ooh, it's really up my vagina.
Sorry.
(laughing)
Okay, so what do I do next?
(Kevin) So maybe just a little side step.
You know, kinda shimmy.
Start-- start moving out.
But then what do I grab onto?
I'm just holding the rope?
Yeah, just hold onto the rope,
and hold on tight.
No.
One of my hoops just fell, Kevin!
Oh no, okay, we gotta start again.
I just wanna make a deal that if I fall off this,
I'm not getting back on, and it's fine.
Because, you know, it's my civil rights.
Martin Luther King Jr. fought so I can say "no"
to white nonsense whenever I want.
(Kevin laughing)
It's more up my vagina
than my gyno has ever been.
(laughing)
Phoebe, don't make me laugh too much,
'cause I'm gonna fall right off this goddamn thing.
(sighs)
(laughing nervously)
(Phoebe) My mouth is so dry.
(gagging, coughing)
I also wanna know why this was invented.
(Phoebe) Leo, who did this?
Is it some guy named Scott?
Okay, so you're gonna pass this...
Oh, (bleep).
3, 2, 1...
(gasps)
(Leo) Heyo!
(all cheering)
I'm gonna go get the other one.
(gasps)
Sorry, sorry.
(breathing)
Is this gonna give me, like, Angela Bassett arms?
(gasps, bleep).
Sorry, that was me.
Ahh!
That was me, I'm so sorry.
(laughing) I just peed a little, I think.
So good, Kev.
(gasps) Ooh.
There you go.
(Leo) Okay, Phoebe, it's time.
Leo, it's not time.
(Leo) Let go of the orange rope.
You got Kevin, you have the white rope,
and you're gonna finish this.
(sighs) Are you sweating at all?
Uhh, I'm not really a big sweater.
Well...
Ooh. (Leo) Nice. Nice.
You guys get that?
(Leo) Yeah.
Nice, now just hang on and shimmy over, slowly.
Just take a-- take a couple steps.
Hanging on, there you go.
You're actually the perfect partner
for something like this.
Am I?
(Kevin) Two more steps.
(Leo) Yeah!
(cheering and applause)
Okay, thanks Kevin.
Okay, so what should I do?
(Leo) I will just lower you straight from the cable.
So you got me? I weigh-- I weigh 188 pounds.
I'm not afraid to admit it.
(cheering and applause)
Thank you!
(grunting)
(shrieks)
(cheering and applause)
Thank you so much.
Looking back at it, I was, like, oh, it wasn't that far.
