SAM: I'm stuck in the woods with the devil.
You awake, Sam?
SAM: What's up?
Well, I found something I figured who would interest ya.
I have 1/2 to 3/4 of a pint of raspberries,
and I've got a whole bunch of leaves.
I was going to bring up some tea in a little bit,
if you would like something.
SAM: I don't want anything.
If I eat those berries, he's gonna think that everything's
fine, and it's not.
I know I'm being prideful right now,
but his actions remind me of how my dad used to be,
where he had it in his head what was right
and what was wrong, because in his mind, he knows best.
This is one of the reasons why I ended
up homeless, because I refuse to bow to anyone's ignorance.
But you guys don't understand how exhausting
it is mentally and emotionally to be in this position
with somebody who doesn't think further than his nose.
I came back with a huge, huge quart of raspberries,
but somehow a kind gesture just turned into well,
now you're taking all my food.
I don't know what to do with this woman.
10 days of non-stop argument--
that's what I get to look forward to.
No.
I don't.
I really just kinda want to do our own thing from here on out.
Come on in.
Hey, what are you doing?
You're like literally straddling me with your arms.
Get off me, bro.
JOE: Sam, knock it over.
All right, last question and I'll leave you alone.
I literally don't want to speak to you.
JOE: How do you want to split up the blankets?
I don't give a [BLEEP] what you do.
I'm going to make sure I'm warm.
JOE: All right, well, I'm going to grab the bottom of them.
You're on half of my blanket.
I don't give a [BLEEP].
JOE: That's what-- I really don't know
how to approach this right now.
Yeah.
JOE: You are so angry.
I am angry, and you don't understand why.
Isn't that crazy?
So when are you tapping out?
He sounds like a wounded puppy.
And if you want to split resources, Joe,
this is my shelter.
Joe, get out.
JOE: I helped build some of this, too.
What, like the 10 branches and the mud you put on it?
Bro, I'll kick down this fireplace
and you can have a good night.
If you'll let me use the machete tomorrow,
I will start building my own.
Honestly, I don't feel like you did
very much soul searching today.
I heard you got--
you were literally over there laughing.
You didn't think at all about what happened earlier.
But that's not how it ended up being.
You're actually a really awful human being.
JOE: Ugh.
SAM: You really are a terrible person, Joe.
Like I knew I couldn't trust you.
JOE: OK.
SAM: Like I can't believe I'm stuck here
with such an evil human being.
I'm literally stuck in the woods with the devil.
All right, sunlight's in the shelter.
Get out.
JOE: Happily.
When you're out exposed like this,
you really find out who the real you is and fast.
And sometimes that scares you.
But would you rather be in denial or know the truth?
Now, I have gotta make my own shelter.
[SIGHS] Picking up some rocks together right now
to try and make at least a small little fire pit.
After last night, I have no sympathy left.
Was just horrible--
Sam has absolutely lost her mind.
Like how do I deal with this?
Everything she's doing is so [BLEEP] malicious.
I feel at this point she's just trying to set me up for failure
or to be removed, and there's no way in hell I'm leaving.
It makes me want to finish this even more.
I begged Joe to tap out last night--
begged.
He didn't.
It's just very frustrating to me,
because survival's definitely not my problem.
It's people.
This is where I belong.
Woo!
The fresh air, the beautiful breeze, the sun, the stars--
this is it for me.
I don't know.
He's-- his refusal to tap has basically brought me to tap.
I know I can do this alone, but not with him.
All right, Joe.
So you win, bro.
I win?
Yep.
I'm-- I'm tapping out today.
Still as a teammate, he can't talk to me.
Last night was absolutely horrific.
I mean, what do you want me to tell you?
You still don't get it, and that's why I have to get out.
And it is mentally destroying me.
At least I set you up for success, Joe.
You don't have to do anything else.
Just know when you finally complete this challenge,
you still didn't do it on your own.
I'll know I did this and I earned this,
despite what anyone else says.
[CRYING].
What's going on, Sam?
I need to tap out.
I need to leave this challenge.
Working with him is like really damaging me mentally.
It's literally the exact same feeling when I got kicked out,
because the person I was supposed to be able to trust
no matter what let me down.
And here I am again with the only person
that I'm supposed to be able to trust letting me down.
You understand by leaving, that's final.
Your challenge will be over.
There's no coming back from this.
I do.
My mental health means more than--
than the challenge, unfortunately.
NARRATOR: The harsh conditions of the Montana wilderness
and Sam's inability to work with her partner have forced
her to leave the challenge.
Her PSR drops from 6.8 to 5.4.
My first survival experience, I didn't have anyone to trust.
I didn't have anyone to let me down but myself.
In a way, that made me an incredibly strong person
out here.
My survival skills are on point, but that's
a long time to rely on yourself at a very young age.
I almost wonder if maybe being alone for eight months
in the woods affected my ability to work well with people
or to just let things go.
This isn't the first time somebody's just straight up
left and abandoned me.
This time is a little different though.
It really would kind of taste of a lie
if I didn't say I wasn't happy about it.
Deep down, I still believe Sam's a good person.
I really hope she finds some peace.
Nobody needs to be that high strung.
All right.
Nine more nights of this.
There's no way around it.
Being out here alone, I've got one hell of a task ahead of me.
I've gotta figure out how to source my own food.
I've gotta be able to get firewood.
I've got to be able to process water.
It's just me.
I don't need anything this big.
It's time for new beginnings, and I
have absolutely no intent on ever getting
back in this damn thing.
There's a lot of bad mojo in this shelter.
