okay pbn family future dan got the uh rock paper scissors challenge and he said he's already winning. So he got to go in
the store first. Now the challenge he's having is finding things that are his size. But this store
is chock full of stuff. Now whether he gets enough stuff, that will be the test he still has five minutes
and the other two are waiting james is up next so i'm gonna pause this and then we're gonna talk
some more okay so how'd you do dan i did great i got a windbreaker an underlayer sweatshirt. I got a decent winter hat. And I got a backpack all for $22.
$22.
So he came in under budget and under time.
I am.
I am.
I feel very good about what I picked up.
Do you want to go mess with James?
Well, his size is going to allow him to get nice jackets that I saw.
Yeah, I did see that.
But Bankster Breaker's in trouble. Oh, yeah. I don't think there's a jacket he's going to like that I saw. Yeah, I did see that. But Baxter Breaker's in trouble.
Oh, yeah.
I don't think there's a jacket he's going to like that fits him.
He's going to be wearing some suit top here in a minute.
You know what?
I was looking at that nice blue dress in the window.
Yeah, and just a pro tip, he's not asking the staff where stuff is.
Yeah, I know.
So let's see how he does on his time
yeah okay i'm gonna keep an eye on it so james is in there now dan dan came out you got about
four minutes okay ben is the last one to go in and he's standing at the ready
and uh i to tell you,
James took a little different strategy,
but I'll let him explain it to you when he gets out.
Okay, so we're here with the intrepid commander,
and he did pretty good.
He got him down to only pennies.
He had to take some of his candles back.
I had to wheel and deal a little.
They were charging him 50 cents a candle.
The lady also was kind enough to turn my fleece into a hoodie.
So what did you get?
I got this beautiful top-of-the-line Boulder Creek backpack here with multiple compartments.
Yeah, it's a kid's backpack.
I got a great fleece with the high neck since I couldn't find a scarf that really fit me too well
But I still have a plan for that
Nice
I got this enormous 3XL
Freaking North Face
Okay, so I was wrong
That has a zipper
There's another jacket over there that didn't have a zipper
Oh, yeah, that would have been a problem
Yeah
That would have been a mega problem
I couldn't believe this was there
Having you pass it I didn't fit it Oh, really? I was have been a problem. Yeah. That would have been a mega problem. I couldn't believe this was there, having you pass it.
I didn't fit it.
Oh, really?
I was taking it.
I already saw it.
I would have snuck into that.
And you got a $2 hat?
Got myself a Mason Patriots hat.
No idea where they're from, but I'm their biggest fan tonight.
And a pot.
Yeah, I got a candle here, because I think we might struggle with fire later, so that'll help.
And a pot so we can heat some liquid.
$2?
So we can heat internally because I think we'll probably need to heat internally.
Okay, well, we'll see.
We'll see.
We'll see what's what.
I feel good.
Ben?
Yeah, yeah, I think he did good.
He used his maximum amount of time, and I think he came in just like pennies under
$25.
Good to go. Yeah, we didn't count on
tax either, did we?
Yeah, let's see what Dan
the man got. Dan's got some
nice windbreaker.
That's going to really be nice.
Not as good on the pockets as you did.
I'm afraid. Well, I don't know if those
pockets are as good as you think either.
That was my one issue with that, was the pockets.
Wool hat.
I've got the best $2 wool hat I could find.
Yep.
And then just another sweatshirt there.
Yeah.
And a backpack with a bit more space.
It's a nice backpack.
It looks less like a kid's.
It took me a while picking backpacks.
Yeah. Well, and I think it's a little bit bigger than yours. There wasn't any back there.
If Dan wants one, he's going to have to settle for
a real nice one, but it's nine bucks.
Ooh, that's going to cut it down.
And this one was
seven, and I picked this. I had
that until I found this one. Mine was cheap, because
it's so bright. Mine was only five bucks.
Ah, yeah. It's
orange and blue.
But yours is yellow and black. That's really bright. Mine was only five bucks. Oh, yeah. It's orange and blue. But yours is yellow and black.
That's really nice.
Looks like someone sponsored it.
They got it free at a...
I got some cordage.
You got some cordage, too?
Look at that.
That's good.
I imagine one of the first things we'll want to do is put like a ridge palm up when we get there.
I got to keep an eye on the time.
He's already burned up six minutes.
So.
What did you get, Ben?
What's happening?
I got, let's see, a long-sleeve shirt, another long-sleeve shirt, a long-sleeve hoodie, and I got a $2 hat, wool hat.
Uh-huh.
What about a backpack?
And a little, like, satchel, more like.
Satchel, yeah.
Like a laptop bag, almost.
Yeah.
And it was about $23.50 before tax or something.
So I was like, right there.
Right there.
Yeah, that's good.
You and James.
I went with that third shirt.
I wasn't sure if I should just go two upper body and try to find something else.
But I think I did about as efficient as I could.
I just can't look back now.
Yeah.
Did anybody get long john pants or pajama pants?
They didn't have sweatpants.
Nothing like that.
They didn't have much by the way of men's pants.
Yeah, they had a lot of women's stuff.
I should have went to the women's section, but I guess we're...
Get some nylons?
I could have definitely got me a clean pair of yoga pants.
It has an under layer.
There was a workman's top and bottom one piece.
I saw that, a Michael Myers.
But it didn't provide any kind of insulation.
Oh, it was just like
coveralls. It was very thin
coveralls. It would have been cool to wear
first, but it would have been a pain to take
a piss every time.
Oh, yeah.
Keep that in mind.
I have to declare a winner on the
purchases, so I think, James, I keep that in mind for sure. Well, let's see. I have to declare a winner on the purchases.
So I think, James, you got her all the way around.
Nice.
Okay.
I'll take it.
A candle, a pot.
If you can light it.
Yeah, if you can light it.
Yeah, that's going to be the trick in the way.
And what was the other thing that wasn't clothing?
Pot.
Yeah, it's pot.
Clothing, pot, backpack.
Yeah. Fleece, it's pot. Clothing, pot, backpack. Yeah.
Fleece.
Fleece.
Now, I really like your windbreaker, Dan.
That baby's going to come in super, super.
Because it is all that going to be tonight.
So, we'll see how your selection of purchases go.
I did also come in over budget and talk down under budget. So we'll see how your selection of purchases go.
I did also come in over budget and talk down under budget.
Nice.
That's a little bit of a technique I think that would be useful in a situation like this, right?
Well, they didn't tell you what the clothing cost until you got there to check out.
So it was kind of a mystery up until you were ready to lay your money down.
Then the lady said,
what are you guys doing? And I said, well, we've got a
competition going here. He can't
spend more than $25.
Well, then they started taking candles out.
And it was like fishy sense.
She turned the fleece into a hoodie.
Oh.
Which was cool. Yeah. We're do that? I don't know if you would get it, which was cool.
Yeah.
So we're going to go check out the route.
Yeah.
We're going to look at all the spots and make sure we know what we're doing.
Then I'm going to put the boxes, right?
Or can I put them while we're checking?
I think they ought to go down as late as possible to improve the chances that they're still there when we get there.
Yeah.
Well, I could camouflage them in some way.
I'm sure Dave could get them hidden.
Yeah.
The question is, would we be able to find it if Dave gives it his all?
That's a good point.
Well, we'll go look.
Okay, we're getting ready to kick off here, and I'm dropping James off first.
Okay, Intrepid Commander, what's your overall strategy?
Tonight, I think I'm going to try to do as straight and narrow as possible,
and my covert situation's a little bit laughable at the moment.
I'm in the parking lot of a popular Trader Joe's, so that's kind of going out the window for me.
But I'm going to try to keep it straight on these two roads and then once i get the cash area i'm gonna see how much time i can spend building
yeah make some things to impress the judge dave jones and then uh yeah sneak my way back i think
on that road that we we took yeah and then hopefully by then somebody's there with me
hopefully somebody's got the paper to my lighter at that moment.
The tinder to your spark.
That's it.
That's what I need.
But I mean, yeah, straightforward.
You know.
We got about 20, maybe 30 minutes of daylight left.
That's it.
It's dropping fast and I got two more guys to drop off.
Yeah.
So my primary objective when you guys leave, I'm going to go over and look in this box
and see if I can't find me something.
We got a donation box to the
right of us. Yeah. And then
get moving while I still got some sun
and generate some heat. Yeah, you got to keep
moving. So you get
points for anything that you scavenge
along the way.
You also get points from
stuff that you put together from the caches.
That's it.
But if you can scavenge something and make it work along the way, that's worth more points.
It's going to be a wild night.
There's no doubt about it.
Absolutely.
Well, good luck to you.
Thank you, Dave Jones.
Take care.
Adios.
Okay, so I'm dropping off Ben, the breaker of banksters and boy he's
looking mighty good how you feel ben what's your strategy my strategy i'm trying to do well at all
four points of the game so there's four points we call the s is for uh survival no it's not i
already forgot where they are.
Scavenge.
Scavenge.
I'm already losing some brain power from lack of food.
Scavenge.
Upcycle.
Yeah.
And that's the S.
That's the U.
The R is...
I don't know.
I already failed this.
Okay.
Anyway, I want to do...
Oh, it's the race.
Race.
We want to scavenge.
We want to upcycle. We want to race race and we want to be invisible or visibility yeah vanish vanish so i'm trying to
be stealthy but i'm trying to go fast but i'm trying to find things i'm trying to combine them
intelligently so i'm trying to do all those at once maybe that's a bad strategy do you think
you're gonna make it in time i think i'm gonna make it in time um but i don't
know what i'm gonna be coming back with at all okay well good luck my man thank you sir i'll see
you guys on the other end okay i'm dropping the last contestant off the sun has just went over the horizon
nice sunset what do you think dan i think i'm gonna pound some water before i step off so i'm
not carrying that weight yeah it's good it's better in me than on me yeah and the first two
things i've been thinking about this for a long time first two things i'm doing is i'm heading up
on my route to the first cash point. But before I get there, I'm finding stones because I'm a big believer and I've watched all these other shows.
And I'll tell you what, I think humankind, like one of the weapons that we've always had is the ability to throw stones.
Right.
So I'm finding a nice lacrosse sized ball ball okay throwing stone or two yeah and i'm keeping
my eyes out for squirrel rabbit or anything else well opportunity a dog might come after you need
that stone yeah and um so and plus i'm trying to go for bonus points for acquiring a weapon early in the process and
then i'm going to upgrade from there i'm going to try to build other things that are self-defensive
and uh hunting oriented now of course we're not hunting out of season on anything right no no
but there's lots of critters that don't have seasons yep and i fasted since last night so
i have that on my mind uh I'm feeling good about the weather
and another goal of mine
is to get to the first cache
before the Bankster Breaker
and maybe even
surprise him and get some
vanish points.
I saw him and he didn't see me.
Dang, well you've got to
hike to get to the first cache.
I do, I do do that's why i'm
gonna put down some water and start hoofing it the sun's going down and uh this is gotham get out
we're in the suburbs we're trying to get out of it okay my man good luck to you thanks in the
morning we'll see you in the morning
