Final Episode

Kurt
"Where the fuck are they?"

Lucy
"We've been here, ready for half an hour Christ I can't stand this waiting."

Loud bang on the shop door.

Male Voice
"Open up, Police."

More loud bangs as the police try to force the door open. The men inside shout in Spanish. Two of them check the tunnel. There are shouts in Spanish that there are more men coming up the tunnel. One of the men opens fire into the tunnel. The door of the shop breaks open police enter. One of the mexicans opens fire hitting two police officers they shoot back a gun battle ensues inside the shop. Kurt gets shot trying to run towards the police shouting he's on Globetrotters. Lucy attempts to get back to the tunnel as Mexican troops come out one of the Mexican drug dealers jumps down next to her and shoots at the troops who return fire killing them both.Police and troops swarm all over the premises.
Cuts to Johnny back in the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"I can't believe it! So close and yet so far! That's such a pity, made for great TV though. What a way to go out! That'll going to be on our Christmas special for sure. All Sami and Carl have
to do now is get the money back and get out!"
Then cuts back to Sami and Carl as they come out of the tunnel with the bags.The boy follows them everywhere. The same men are standing around waiting for them.

Carl
"Here it is this is everything that they gave us. We didn't count it but it looks like its all there."

1st Man
"I would expect it to be, Youve done what was required of you, there are people from your show out there."

Sami
"Have we won? Have we won? Please tell us we can't have lost to them two, please tell me?"

2nd Man
"We don't know, I personally hope you have won you deserve to, you did well. If you ever need a job why don't you come down to the border towns, I'm sure we could put both of you to good use and you could earn some good money, just something to think about."

Carl
"Thanks we'll bear that in mind."

They walk outside where a Globetrotter helicopter is waiting for them. The boy still follows them. A reporter and film crew are waiting for them.

Chris Henderson
"Welcome guys! Well done on completing the challenge."

Carl
"Have we won?"

Chris Henderson
"We're going to go back to the studio to announce that Carl. Lets get going."

Sami
"You must be joking right we have to wait to find out if we won! Oh come on, thats just ridiculous tell me you asshole, have you any idea what we've had to do? Have you any idea what I'm capable of doing?"

Chris Henderson
"I'm afraid I can't do that, don't know its a secret."

Carl
"Come on lets just get the fuck out of here. Say goodbye to the kid."

Sami puts her arm round the boy.

Sami
"He's coming with us. I'm going to keep him. He's going to be my little souvenir from Mexico."

Chris Henderson
"I don't think we can do that Sami, he'll have to stay here, I don't even know if there will be room in the helicopter."

Carl
"Are you sure about this?"

Sami
"I want him more than anything else we can adopt him I mean how celebrity is that? How cool will that make us look? We'll be rescuing our own little killer Just think about it."

Carl
"Well when you put it like that, come on son lets go."

Sami takes the boy by the hand and they walk to the helicopter. The boy smiles but still doesn't say anything. The Mexican gangsters standing around laugh as they get on board the helicopter.

Pilot
"We don't have the room for anyone else the kid can't get on."

Chris Henderson
"See he can't come, Its very touching Sami and it really shows your maternal side...."

Sami kicks Henderson in the gut and knocks him out of the helicopter.

Sam
"Plenty of room now, Go! Are you fucking deaf go!"

The pilot shrugs and takes off leaving Henderson standing on the ground shouting. Cuts back to the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"What an ending! What a series folks! We'll have them back here soon when we'll let them know that they've won. I bet the suspense is killing them. We're going to have a quick word with Natarsha Metsacker who is outside the shop where Kurt and lucy are, Natarsha, can you tell us whats happening there?"

Cuts to Natarsha Metsacker in the street outside the shop. The street is crowded with police and ambulances and people having a look at what has happened.

Natarsha Metsacker
"Hi Johnny I'm outside the shop where Kurt and Lucy's bodies are, and where their trot around the globe came to an end, I think we're all quite shocked at whats happened to them. What a way to end their adventure, I'm joined here by Captain Duke Curzon-Howe IV."

Captain Duke Curzon-Howe IV
"Told you we would get them. I'd sooner have had them in cuffs right now but sometimes if you play with fire you get burnt. And you know to make things worse what they brought over, or should I say under the border was worthless."

Natarsha Metsacker
"Worthless so even if they had survived they wouldn't have won the game."

Captain Duke Curzon-Howe IV
"Chances are if we hadn't of got them the buyers would have, told you this is a very dangerous game. We were tipped off by sources in Mexico."

Natarsha Metsacker
"Thank you Captain and keep up the good work. We're just going to ask a few of the bystanders what their thoughts are on this, excuse me sir did you know two contestants from Globetrotters are among the dead?"

Bystander
"What, oh really? Thats terrible news. Who was it in there?"

Natarsha Metsacker
They are both dead it was Kurt and Lucy.

Bystander
"OH what! Thats a shame I had $50 on them to win. Suppose my money is gone now. That means Sami and Carl have won. I knew I should have put some money on them. I just knew it."

Bodies are carried out on stretchers in the background.

Woman
"Well I'm glad they got what they deserve, they were just horrible. What that Lucy did to that lovely man Jack just awful. But it has been a great show this year."

Natarsha Metsacker
"Some mixed reactions down here Johnny only thing we can say for sure is that everybody has really enjoyed this series, back to you in the studio."

Cuts back to the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"This has been the best series ever I've never been so excited. What a finale ! What a last couple of weeks its been for our contestants! And now ladies and gentlemen I give you the winners of Globetrotters Sami and Carl!"

Sami and Carl and Pedro walk out onto the set. The crowd are all on their feet cheering and clapping. Ticker tape women in bikinis. They are given bouquets of flowers.

Carl
"Hey Johnny hello everyone! Whoooo! Yesssssss! That was an adventure and no mistake!"

Sami
"We did it! We did it! That was the best fun Johnny! And not only did we win we got to save this wonderful young man."

Johnny Paradis'
"I must say I think you are very deserving winners. You're what's best in our society, Sami and Carl, I'm proud to say I know you. You took on every challenge head on and didn't take a backward step all the way. When it got tough you showed your true colours. You showed us that fame and fortune always come at a price. And heres your price $20,000,000! How good is that?"

They are handed a large novelty cheque.

Carl
"I just want to say thank you Johnny, thank you to all the wonderful people who have helped us along the way, all the other contestants, you guys were great, you really pushed us. And a really big thank you to Globetrotters! You don't know how important this was to us."

Sami
"I just want to thank all our friends and family for their support all the way through."

Johnny Paradis'
"What a final this has been! We've had gun fights decapitations does it get any better than this? And on another note we've seen how Globetrotters brings people together, just look at those guys with young Pedro. It's so sweet it nearly brings a tear to my eye. What a show! what a series! We're back next week folks with our highlights show. Thats something not to be missed! And don't you worry we'll be back next year bigger and better with another amazing series of Globetrotters. Lets hear it for our winners Sami and Carl! Fame and fortune are all yours! And don't you deserve it? Whats the catchphrase people?"

The audience starts chanting now thats an adventure. Contestants wave cuts to closing credits for Globetrotters.

"NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE! NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE! NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE!"

Episode 21

Johnny Paradis'
"I bet thats a lot harder than it looks. Just look at the sweat on those two. Why join the gym when you can push drugs up a tunnel thats the Globetrotters weight loss programme."

Turns to a different camera. We're going to leave them to it for now and see what Kurt and Lucy are up to.Cuts back to the warehouse where they are all still standing around. Hector is speaking on a phone.

Lucy
"When can we get started? We've been here for over an hour, I don't know if you are aware we are in a race. There's a lot at stake here. We really don't have too much time to spare. Don't want to be a pain but some of us are in a fucking rush!"

Kurt
"Whats the delay?"

Hector
"You can start now,there was a small problem, but it has been resolved.

Kurt
"Come on lets get started. We've wasted enough time already."

They begin loading the vacuum sealed bags onto trolleys pushing them up a narrow long tunnel. Semi dark lights hang from the roof. Its hot and sweaty in the tunnel. At the other end they pass the bags up to men waiting in an empty and shuttered shop. They go back and forth continually taking the bags. Cuts back to the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"Both teams are hard at it now, Its Sami and Carl in the lead, they got going before Lucy and Kurt and they have the advantage in that they have less to transport across the border. The challenge stipulated $5,000,000 of contraband. We had no say over what they would be carrying over the border. Thems the breaks! I guess Kurt and Lucy are going to have to work twice as hard!"

Cuts back to Kurt and Lucy. They look hot and tired. Lucy looks around at the men standing around.

Lucy
"You could always help out you know it won't kill you."

Hector
"Why would we help ? You look like you are having so much fun."

Kurt
"Stop talking lets get back to it, we haven't got time to chat."

Lucy
"How about we pay two of your men half a million each from our winnings if they help us. With a little help we can do it. What'd you say?"

Antonio speaks to the men in Spanish offering them Lucy's deal. Two men respond quicker than the others and begin helping them get the packages over the border. Cuts back to Johnny in the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"Smart move by Lucy, she knows how this game works, and she knows how to work people. Lets see if this evens things up. I do wonder though if they don't win what they are going to tell their brand new employees, somehow I think them saying sorry guys we've got no money isn't going to go down well."

Cuts to Sami and Carl. They have moved nearly all of the packages.

Johnny Paradis'
"And they're into into the home stretch. We just got word they are moving cocaine over the border and poor Kurt and Lucy got stuck with marijuana.I can imagine quite a few people will be fairly pleased that things aren't going all that well for them.They've got the last packages into the tunnel now and they are off over the border. For what could well be their last run.

Cuts back to Lucy and Kurt who with the help of the two men have moved nearly all the packages.

Johnny Paradis'
"They really are catching up now, this is getting to be too much, its so close. Somebody sedate me! I don't know about you but my heart is pounding!"

Cuts to Sami and Carl as they bring the last of the packages up the ladder into the garage. The boy is still with them. Filmed from their point of view.

Sami
"Thats it we're done, Send them a text. The sooner they get here the sooner we win!"

Carl
"All we got to do now is wait."

Sami
"He told us 20 minutes well the clock is ticking. Christ I hate waiting I just hope they hurry up. Shit I just thought do we have to count the money?"

Carl
"They said they trusted them I'm not counting the money. I'm just bringing it back and getting out of here as fast as I can!"

Cuts to Kurt and Lucy as they bring the last of the packages through the tunnel and up into the empty and shuttered shop. The two men who have helped them climb up the ladder into the shop.

1st Man
"Our money now."

Kurt
"When we win you get your money, now where are the buyers?"

The men standing around speak in Spanish.

Lucy
"What did they say? They're on their way aren't they? Don't they understand this's for tv? How many times do I have to say it? Just get me back to civilisation where people understand this shit!"

1st Man
"Soon they arrive, and we get our money."

Cuts back to Sami and Carl in the garage. There is a knock on the shutter door. One of the men opens it and a van drives in. Three men get out.

1st Man
"Where is the product?"

Sami
"Its over there."

The 1st man speaks to the other two in Spanish. One them goes over to the packages and opens one and takes small sample which he then tests. He nods his approval as to the quality. One of the men goes into the van and takes out two large bags which he opens to show them full of money. He hands them to Carl. They then start to load the packages into the van. The young boy goes through the bags checking it is all full of cash.

Carl
"Thats it we're done lets get back across the border, grab the cash lets go."

Sami
"I can't believe it this is the end we've done it I'm so proud of you Carl."
Carl

They pick up the bags and take them back down the tunnel. Cuts back to Kurt and Lucy in the shop.

"We can see that we'll check back in with you a little later on and isn't that what this game is all about, those two boys having lunch with Carl and Sami thats bringing people together the Globetrotters way I find that very touching, I really do. It almost brings a tear to my eye, almost, we've really got no time to spare though its all go,go,go it's the final, the last chapter in this years race to be named Globetrotters. Who's your money on? Who do you want to win? Our on line poll stays open for another five minutes, let us know what you think.So lets not waste any more time and get straight back into the action.

Kurt
"So what are we going to be taking across the border?"

Lucy
"Who cares?"

Kurt
"So what is it? I want to know."

The two men say nothing.

Lucy
"Talkative pair aren't they? He asked you a question, its good manners to answer when somebody speaks to you didn't you mother teach you that?"

The two men say nothing. One turns round and looks at them with a look of disdain.

Lucy
"Ohhhh if looks could kill."

Kurt
"Just shut up and leave them alone."

Lucy
"Fuck you Don't you ever tell me to shut up do you hear."

Kurt
"Calm down, we don't need any distractions now lets just get where we are going and not make any enemies along the way,thats all I'm saying."

Lucy
"No, you told me to shut up, so fuck you. I don't care how many enemies I make I never said I was here to make friends."

Kurt
"Ok, ok just focus ok, lets just leave it at that."

The driver turns to the other man and says in Spanish.

Driver
"What a pair of assholes!"

The car pulls up in front of a large rundown building. They all get out of the car and walk inside. They walk through the building. Men with guns stand around.

Lucy
"We're here this is it! I can't believe it."

Kurt
"I know what you mean, now lets listen carefully to what they say we don't want to make any mistakes."

Lucy
"You just worry about yourself, I'll be fine I don't make mistakes."

Kurt
"We fuck up with these guys and thats it we are fucked and I mean properly fucked. There are no second chances here."

Lucy
"Don't worry we won't fuck up its not in us to do that we've come this far and we are going all the way. We get whatever it is across get the money drop it off and get the fuck out simple. Then we sprint to the finish line."

Kurt
"We just get the agreed price we don't try to make on it we just get the money and go in and out as fast as we can."

Lucy
"For sure."

They walk into a second large room there are several men in the room and in one part a large pile of vacuum sealed bags.

Antonio
"Ah, here they are, welcome my friends glad you could join us."

Hector
"What you did was very impressive you just cost me $500 I thought you wouldn't do it."

Kurt
"Tell you what I'll pay you back out of my winnings, what do you want us to do? And what are we taking across?"

Hector
"You are taking those packages across. What is in them is not important, you don't need to know. You will take it through a tunnel we have built over to the American side. We have people there waiting, the buyers, they will arrive once everything is over there. Get the money and come back here."

Antonio
"Don't do anything stupid, don't get any ideas of disappearing with our money."

Kurt
"We won't we've too much at stake."

Hector
"That you have, that you have."

Cuts back to the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"Well it looks like Kurt and Lucy are ready to get started lets see where are other team are and how they are getting on."

Cuts to Carl and Sami's hotel. They are waiting outside. A 4X4 pulls up and they get in. One of the boys is in the car along with the two men they previously have had contact with.

1st Man
"You have a new friend young Pedro here insisted on coming along for the ride I think he likes you."

Sami
"He's so cute I could take him home with me, just look at that face he is so adorable."

Carl
"Thats just what we need at home a psycho killer."

Sami
"Don't be like that, he's just a kid."

Carl
"Yeah with an AK47 and a penchant for mass murder sure the neighbours would love him. Hi Bob meet Pedro the assassin I wouldn't want to keep his ball Bob he may just fucking kill you."

Sami
"Don't you listen to him I think you're lovely, he's just being mean because he's jealous of you Pedro."

Carl
"Oh please I think I've heard it all now."

They leave the town and drive through the countryside. Eventually they stop outside a farm house. They all get out of the car and go inside. There are three other 4X4s parked outside and men with guns patrol the house and grounds.

1st Man
"Follow me please."

They walk downstairs into the farmhouses basement. Some men are moving a large cabinet across revealing a tunnel entrance.

2nd Man
"This should be easy. The tunnel runs under the border comes up in a factory unit. People are waiting there for you the buyers will arrive once the whole shipment is there."

Hands them a mobile phone.

"There is a number in there you send a text to it saying ok.They will get there 20 minutes later. You get the money bring it back here. This is a very small shipment and these are first time buyers from us. Simple eh?"

Carl
"You trust them I don't want to walk into some kind of police trap."

1st Man
"It's ok they all have family here in Mexico they won't do anything stupid."

Sami
"Lets get started the sooner we get it all over there the better."

2nd Man
"It has lighting and air conditioning, well air gets pumped in you'll be working in comfort. I think maybe two or three hours and you will be finished."

Carl
"Is that all two hours? Oh man I love you guys come on Sami lets get going."

They start loading packages into a trolley. Once it is loaded they push it down the tunnel. The tunnel is several hundred meters long lights hang from the roof every 10 meters or so. Its hot despite the so called air conditioning. The boy follows them. At the other end they unload the trolley and carry the packages up a ladder into a garage. There are several men standing around with guns. They are directed to put the packages on a palate.

Episode 19

Cuts back to the front of their hotel as Carl and Sami get into a van. Inside are the same three men as before and two young boys about 12 or 13 years old. Both the boys are holding guns and grenades.

Carl
"Whats this a family day trip brought the kids along for the ride, has someone packed a picnic?"

1st Man
"Thats very funny, if only you knew. But you're going to find out these two, they are our best. They go where others can't. Between them they have killed more than 30 men I would choose my words and actions with them carefully."

Sami
"Are you for real these are killers they should be playing with an xbox not an uzi."

1st Man
"Killing is all they know, they grow with it, its in their blood and we want you to accompany them to a restaurant that we know some people will be at, its simple you walk in with the boys and start shooting at everyone everything. No one will suspect you, you will be fine the boys are with you all will be good, trust me."

Sami
"This is a joke right, you can't be serious these two kids are going to help us shoot up a restaurant."

1st Man
"You seem more concerned about the kids than those we want you to kill."

Carl
"We don't care about them its about us, we want to make sure we get to win and like they say never work with children or animals."

2nd Man
"Here are your weapons. We will park a short walk from the restaurant it's an open cantina. You walk up and you start to shoot. Keep the guns behind you as you walk."

The van stops at a corner.

1st Man
"Walk to the end of this street and turn right at the corner on your left about 50 meters up the road you will see the place."

2nd man to the boys said in Spanish they both nod.

1st Man
"You know where it is don't you boys?"

1st Man
"Walk up to it slowly when you are a few yards away start shooting its simple."

Sami
Easy for you to say.

Carl
"Lets just do it and get on with the challenge. Fuck this is really pushing me to my limits. But I fucking love it. Just fucking love it."

Carl, Sami and the two boys get out of the van. All of them carrying guns. They walk around the corner and up a dusty looking street. Can hear music and laughter coming from an open courtyard which is the restaurant. They walk up to the entrance as they do so one of the boys throws a grenade into the restaurant and they all open fire. Chaos ensues people running screaming trying to get away from the hail of bullets. They continue firing until they run out of ammunition. The two boys throw grenades in then they all turn and run back to the van.

Sami
"Oh my god I've never felt so alive."

Carl
"I can't believe we just did that….That was amazing! Unbelievable!"

2nd Man
"See we told you it was easy, we'll take you back to your hotel. On Thursday morning we'll pick you up. You have a couple of days to relax now take in the joys of Mexico be a tourist."

Cuts back to the studio."

Johnny Paradis'
"This just gets better and better folks on the one show mass slaughter and decapitations ! What other show would give you this ? If you have the answer please keep it to yourself ha,ha,ha,ha no ones interested. Bill and Stacey what do you think about all this?"

Cuts back to the hospital room.

Bill
"Well Johnny I just wish we had a chance like those guys to prove ourselves."

Stacey
"These two teams are amazing. I mean both of them really have what it takes to win I'm just so impressed, I'm speechless I really am."

Johnny Paradis'
"Luckily I'm not because I'm the host of the show, thanks for your input guys I think we all agree these two teams are something special. Nothing is going to stop them from competing. We're going to see something very, very special in this final I can tell. We're going to briefly check in with our contestants and see how they feel."

Cuts to Kurt and Lucy in a bar having a drink. They speak with Johnny via their ipads. Images are broadcast onto the giant video screen in the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"Well hello there guys how are you feeling after completing that little assignment for the cartel it was so good to see you not lose your heads ha,ha,ha,ha."

Kurt
"But we made sure they did didn't we ha,ha but seriously Johnny we're feeling really good really positive. I've never done anything like that in my life before that was really something I can tell you."

Lucy
"There was a moment there where I thought he wasn't going to do it but we both came through with flying colours. Carl and Sami had better watch out we're coming to get the big one. Ain't nothing or no one going to stop us. Not now, not after that."

Cuts back to Johnny.

Johnny Paradis'
"I can believe that. Lets just quickly check in with Carl and Sami and see how they are.
Johnny walks back toward the giant video screen. Cuts to Carl and Sami sitting in a bar with the two young boys. They speak with Johnny via their ipads. Images are broadcast onto the giant video screen in the studio. The two boys sit there staring emotionlessly forward."

Johnny Paradis'
"Hi, Carl and Sami, and hi to your two new friends. How is everything going now?"

Carl
"We're great Johnny really excited and relived that this part of the challenge is over and we are just really looking forward to Thursday thats when the real test begins."

Sami
"Weren't these two little guys great once you see them in action you know why the cartel holds them in such high esteem. We thought the least we could do for them is take them out and buy them lunch they won't take any money from us but we have ordered them ipads."

Johnny Paradis'
"And are you ready for Thursday? Have you got your games faces on?"
Sami
"Oh we're ready alright, its game on and we are going to give it everything we're ready."

Cuts back to Johnny in the studio.

Episode 18

Lucy
"Where exactly are we going? And what are you going to get us to do?"

Hector
"Where we are going is not important. You are going to meet a man who will ask you to do something, you say yes or you say no to his offer you are safe you have our word."

Kurt
"We trust you, we just like to know whats going on thats all."

Antonio
"You'll find out soon enough."

Car pulls up outside a warehouse they all get out and go in. They walk through a few rooms men with guns watch them go past.

Antonio
"These are the people we spoke to you about."

Man
"Welcome, my friends here have spoken to me about your position and your game I am willing to help you but at a price."

Lucy
"We haven't got much money and you said we couldn't just bribe you."

Man
"I never mentioned money, come with me please."

They all walk through to another section of the warehouse tied to chairs are four men. Several other men are standing around with guns.

Man
"They are my price."

Lucy
"What?"

Man
"The price of trust is their lives, their heads on a stick, on a plate I don't care you do that for me I will help you if you don't want to do that then we will say good bye."

Lucy
"What the fuck!"

Man
"Please don't swear bad language offends me."

Kurt
"You seriously want us to cut their heads off?"

Man
"They are Federal Police placing their heads around town sends a message to all those who think the police can protect them, when we are the real power here."

Kurt
"Look I don't give a fuck....sorry, didn't mean to swear, about killing people I'm ex military but...."

Man
"Their heads and I will help."

Lucy
"Oh sweet Jesus!...And what am I going to cut his fucking head off with my fingernails?"

Hector walks forward with two small chainsaws.

Hector
"We find that these do the job well."

Lucy
"Give me that."

The men standing around make comments as she takes the chainsaw. The chainsaws are already on.

Antonio
"Take their hoods off let them look each other in the eye."

Lucy
"Are you just going to stand there Kurt or are you going to help? Two each fifty, fifty all the way thats what we said. Don't let me down now."

Kurt takes a chainsaw from hector walks in front of the men with Lucy. Their hoods are pulled off. The men start pleading in Spanish.

Lucy
"It's nothing personal it's just business....Oh I've always wanted to say that, it just sounds so cold and heartless."

Lucy starts her chainsaw walks forward and puts the blade to the mans neck he's screaming she pauses a second then cuts his head off blood splatters the other men scream without a pause she beheads the second man their heads roll on the floor.

Lucy
"Your turn are you for real Kurt cos if I kill them all I take all the money, you hear I'm not joking."

Kurt
"Yeah ok."

Kurt walks forward the two men tied to the chairs are screaming and crying. Kurt stands there and pauses. He shouts and cuts the two mens heads off.

Kurt
"Globetrotters!"

Man
"I didn't think you would do it didn't think you had the nerve, I'm impressed. You two really mean what you say."

Lucy stands and shouts pointing the chainsaw at the men.

Lucy
"Told you, and you, and you, told you all nothing I won't do to win this game."

Man
"So it would appear, on Thursday morning we will collect you from the hotel and you will be able to help with the transport of our merchandise."

Kurt
"Thank you so much you don't know what this means to us."

Man
"Oh, I think I do."

Cuts back to the studio cheers and applauses.

Johnny Paradis'
"Wow what can I say? I'm just blown away, that really took some determination. Beheadings with a chainsaw I don't think anyone is going to misconstrue their intentions and the message that sends, we've seen a lot on this show but that really tops the lot. That was just sensational! Folks I'm almost lost for words, but not quite ha,ha,ha,ha lets see what some of our previous contestants think, Jack."

Cuts back to the detention centre Jack, Katherine and Brian.

Jack
"I'm like you Johnny I'm stunned you can see why I married Lucy now can't you she is one gutsy lady. I knew all along she would be able to do anything that was asked of her."

Johnny Paradis'
"And you are still going to divorce her and go after half her money if she wins having just witnessed that?"

Jack
"Oh yes Johnny I'm going to divorce her I want her to win, I want to take her for as much as I can. No one double crosses me and gets away with it, no one."

Johnny Paradis'
"You're a braver man than me thats all I have to say after seeing that I'd be getting divorced on her terms and very happily too ha,ha,ha,ha. Be careful Jack you don't want to lose your head along with your other assets. Brian what are you thinking?"

Brian
"To be honest I'm surprised they were able to go through with it they've both gone up in my estimation of them, I still think they're scum but they've got what it takes. I suppose in a tight corner you'd want them on your side."

Johnny Paradis'
"I fully understand what you are saying Brian. They may have double crossed you guys but they seem to have what it takes. Things are moving along for Carl and Sami, lets see what they are up to shall we?I say yes, yes, yes I can't wait a moment longer the suspense is killing me."

Episode 17

Cuts to Sami and Carl with three men in a hotel room. Two of the men are very hard looking men one is very big muscular. The other is smaller and vicious looking. The largest of the men says nothing.

1st Man
"We have reached a decision after speaking with our boss."

Carl
"You aren't going to let us do it, are you ? Look what can I do...."

1st Man
"I said we've reached a decision nothing else now, listen to me there is something you can do for us."

Sami
"Anything we'll do anything we want you to have faith in us treat us like you would any one else who works for you."

Carl
"Thats right anything just name it."

1st Man
"Really anything, well we will see we'll see what you are willing to do and what you are capable of doing."

2nd Man
"We have a job for you, there are certain people who work for another organisation. We can't get close to them but you can."

Sami
"Get close to them and do what."

Carl
"Whatever they tell us to do thats what we'll do."

2nd Man
"We want these people out of our way....Do you understand what I mean? By doing this for us you will gain our trust it will make you like one of us."

Sami
"Are you asking us to kill someone?"

1st Man
"We are asking you to complete a small favour for us and in return we will assist you in what you want to complete you won't be going alone two of our best men will go with you and make sure everything goes ok."

2nd Man
"You will be in no danger no one will suspect you, you will be able to get very close to them and then you can kill as many of them as you can."

Carl
"We can do this, we will do this always said nothing we wouldn't do to win and this is really going to prove it."

Sami
"Is there anything else we can do, surely there must be something else, and if you can't close to these people why are two of your guys coming with us."

1st Man
"The choice is yours this is our offer take it or leave it."

Carl
"This is it step up or step the fuck off....If we want to stay in the game and win we have to do this, we don't have any other choice."

Sami
"I know, I know doesn't make it any easier though....I want to win, I said there wasn't anything I wouldn't do we'll do it you just show us where and when."

Carl
"Thank you so much, you don't know what this means to us. We won't let you down I promise you that."

1st Man
"We will contact you tomorrow and go through the details. You will have a couple of days to enjoy our beautiful city before you must do this little thing for us. You do it well and on
Thursday you will cross the border with what is required for you to win your game I assume you both know how to use a gun?"

Carl
"Yes, don't worry about us we're both gun club members and I love to go hunting when I can."

All three men start laughing.

2nd Man
"Gun club that is very funny....We'll be back tomorrow Mr and Mrs gun club. You can go hunting my friend see what you catch eh."

Cuts back to the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"Well done Carl and Sami, you guys are really going to get the chance to live up to your word. That takes strength and moral fortitude it really shows how dedicated our contestants are folks in their pursuit for fame and fortune, You guys embody all that is good with this show and whats good in our society."

Applause and cheers from the audience.

"Lets see what some of our former contestants think of this Tommy and Sarah how do you see things shaping up?"

Cuts to Tommy and Sarah in the studio.

Tommy
"I'm really impressed with them that wouldn't be easy to do but they've really stepped up. But I suppose they have to do it yet. Until then its all words it's their actions that are going to count."

Sarah
"I don't know if I could do it, I mean thats a big ask I'm just glad I'm not in their position. They have such a difficult choice make. I don't envy them at all."

Johnny Paradis'
"Thats why it's the final Sarah it's not meant to be easy, Adam and Simon what do you think?"

Cuts to the Sudanese prison cell.

Adam
"What a challenge in the first place and now what a twist on it this is why I love this show Johnny! You just never know what to expect."

Simon
"I just want to wish them well and that I'm sure they'll do us all proud."

Johnny Paradis'
"Thats very nice of you Simon and now we're back to see Kurt and Lucy and whats happening there."

Cuts back to the front of a hotel Kurt and Lucy are getting into a car with Hector and Antonio. In the car driving through a Mexican border town.

Thursday, May 5, 2011

Episode 16

Applause and cheers from the audience. Cuts to a hotel room with Kurt and Lucy and two men. Antonio and Hector.

Kurt
"Look their isn't anything we won't do to help you get your, your cargo across the border, we don't care what it is or for who it's for, we just have to be able to help you. This is our lives we are talking about."

Lucy
"Thats right you just tell us what we need to do or how much we need to pay you, we don't want anything more than to help you in your endeavours and complete this challenge."

Hector
"It is not a matter of money with us. So don't insult us by trying to offer us a few thousand dollars. I watch the show you have what $30- $40,000 left that is nothing to us, this watch cost $20,000."

Antonio
"For us we need to know we can trust you and those cameras they are all switched off as agreed? We don't want to be on television in our line of work it's not a good idea to have people knowing what we look like."

Voiceover.

Johnny Paradis'
"Oh dear I suppose these guys should know the cameras are never off but I don't think now is the right time to tell them I think they may get a little bit upset."

Kurt
"Of course they are, do you think we would do anything to put this at risk this is our one chance at getting at what we want."

Hector
"Trust me if you do anything to put our operation at risk it will be the last thing you do. We'll nail your heads to the border crossing, am I making myself clear?"

Kurt
"We know what's at stake here, There's no way we would do anything to piss you guys off I promise you."

Lucy
"We want this to succeed more than you do, trust me this is everything to us."

Antonio
"Thats the whole point we don't know if we do or can trust you I mean why should we?"

Kurt
"What can we say or do to prove to you, you can trust us? You tell us what it is and consider it done."

Antonio and Hector whisper to each other in spanish.

Hector
"Maybe there is something you can do so that there is trust between us."

Kurt
"You name it we'll do it."

Antonio
"We will talk with you again tomorrow, we have to speak with certain people you will know tomorrow."

Lucy
"Anything you want us to do just like Kurt said you can consider it done and I mean that anything at all."

Hector
"We shall see until tomorrow goodbye, for now."

Antonio and Hector leave.

Lucy
"We've got to convince them somehow I can't believe they would doubt us we're on Globetrotters for fucks sake, this is for television, the internet it's not just for us. There has to be something we can do to make them help us."

Kurt
"Well, they haven't said no yet I wonder what they might say to us tomorrow. I couldn't catch what they were saying."

Lucy
"That's if they ever come back, oh man I think we're screwed it can't just end like this, it just can't we can't come this far and not walk away with it all."

Kurt
"They have to Lucy they just have to, but right now I need food and a drink come on lets go eat."

Lucy
"Ok not much else we can do is there, no, on second thoughts I'll stay here."

Kurt
"Do you think I'm leaving you on your own I've seen what you are capable of, no you are sticking with me. You fucked Jack over. You ain't going to fuck me over."

Lucy
"Oh but you are paranoid."

Cuts back to the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"Looks like Kurt and Lucy are going to be kept waiting, I wonder what Hector and Antonio were alluding to? Do you think they will even get to attempt the challenge? Why don't you let us know on our online poll and while you are on our site why don't you go to our online store and pick out a gift for that someone special. If you ask me these ties look great and just for the kids we are so happy and proud to announce our new Globetrotters kids club it's only $50 a year. How can you say no to that? You know you can't."

Cuts to ties which have Johnny's face on them, Globetrotter logo. Turns to a different camera.
But right now we are going to cross to Sami and Carl and we'll see how they are getting on.
Cuts to a black screen voices can be heard in the background.

"Well,well,well it appears that this naughty, naughty couple have taken off their hats and jackets and stuffed them in a bag we have sound but no vision for you. So we aren't going to bore you with a black screen and indistinct voices, what we can tell you is that the games adjudicator is looking at the rules to see if this is so serious that they may be eliminated. A mitigating factor was the threat of death if they filmed the negotiators for the cartel and I'm sure that will be taken into consideration. They are however, in the same position as Kurt and Lucy in that the cartels have not agreed at this point to allow them to participate in their operations these guys are really big on trust aren't they? This is television how can they not trust the media? And they really should take into account we have a show to put on. Just think of the children and how disappointed they will be if we don't have a challenge. Come on guys do it for the children. I'm begging you. But don't worry folks we have a back up plan if they don't get to compete in this challenge. Remember though, this is Globetrotters and we've never and I repeat never, failed to have a challenge undertaken by our contestants. Some of them have ended up with the undertaker afterwards where they've been undertaken ha,ha,ha,ha. Get it ?Anyway it's a new day in Mexico lets cross to our contestants and see, I hope you are listening Carl and Sami no hiding the cameras this time you have been warned and given one more chance, just how much progress has been made by our two teams."

Tune in same Globetrotter time same Globetrotter channel.

Episode 15

Cuts to the border crossing. On the Mexican side. Queues of cars in the background lots of Police and soldiers.

Natarsha Metsacker
"Thanks Johnny, this is going to be the toughest challenge our contestants have faced, prior to this they could nearly always bribe their way into the challenge as we saw with the people smuggling. Money is not in short supply here, the Mexican drug trade is estimated at anywhere up $39,000,000,000 a year and last year there were nearly 19,000 deaths related to the cartels and the war on drugs. These guys don't mess around. Our contestants could be smuggling a wide range of contraband marijuana, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, guns we really won't know until they meet their contacts inside the cartels and then comes the task of persuading them to let them help. I'm joined now by Captain Duke Curzon-Howe IV from the McDonalds USA Border Patrol...After a hard day on the border there is nothing like a burger, and from Grupo Bimbo Mexican Federal Police....When you think of bread you have to think of Bimbo. Captain Jorge Arellano."

Captain Duke Curzon-Howe IV
"Good evening Natarsha and good evening viewers, welcome to the border."

Captain Jorge Arellano
"Hola y recepción a México good evening everyone."

Natarsha Metsacker
"Gentlemen you've heard what tonights challenge is, what are your first thoughts?"

Captain Duke Curzon-Howe IV
"Well first of all I really hope that they don't persuade the cartels to let them assist them in their illegal activities they'll be risking their lives and their liberty, these people in the cartels are not to be trusted I have grave fears for their safety."

Captain Jorge Arellano
"I agree with the Captain totally they're being very foolish, even if they do get the chance to help them, we'll be there to catch them and bring them to justice."

Natarsha Metsacker
"So you would consider this a very dangerous challenge for our two teams."

Captain Duke Curzon-Howe IV
"Oh yes, I follow the show closely and this is by far their most dangerous challenge. And even if they attempt it we will catch them make no mistake about that. We are watching and waiting, we are ever vigilant and ever willing and able to do our duty because we are The McDonalds USA Border Patrol."

Captain Jorge Arellano
"We will be coming after them from both sides of the border...."

Natarsha Metsacker
"I see what you gentlemen are saying but you are always attacking the cartels from both sides of the border and yet an estimated $39,000,000,000 of contraband crosses the border every year and the death toll continues to climb year on year as do the Cartels profits, power and influence. We are obviously losing this war."

Captain Duke Curzon-Howe IV
"I couldn't disagree with you more. Why only last week we uncovered a cross border tunnel arrested 11 cartel members and seized drugs with a street value of $15,000,000."

Natarsha Metsacker
"Well I'm sure that has really slowed down their operations Captain. Thank you for your time gentlemen."

Captain Duke Curzon-Howe IV
"Thank you I wish your contestants all the best, but I don't think they will be able to do it."

Captain Jorge Arellano
"Thank you."

Natarsha Metsacker
"It would appear that our contestants biggest threat comes from the Cartels and not from the authorities but time will tell how this all plays out and now its back to you in the studio Johnny."

Cuts back to the studio.Applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"Its all go, go, go on the border and we'll be right back to see how are contestants are doing, right after this message from our good friends at OmniCam."

Cuts to vision of people all shown from the camera holders point of view. Changes then to scenes of man and women kissing, kids drag racing or smoking from bongs. Again all shown from that persons point of view. There is a voice over.

Voice
"Do you ever wonder where your husband or wife is? When they say they are working late or playing golf are you really sure thats where they are? When your son or daughter tells you they are going to a friends house, are you ever really sure thats where they will be? At OmniCam we can help you."

Cuts to infomercial guy showing a range of cameras and images flash behind him of snapshots and videos.

Infomercial Guy
"We have a wide range of cameras that can provide you and your family with the security and knowledge you all deserve and with these button cameras you'll never wonder where or what they are doing again, they come in a huge range to match any button you may have and they transmit excellent pictures and audio direct to your computer. Never miss anything again that your nearest and dearest does."

Cuts to a woman in her lounge room. In front of a large TV with images of a fire being started by the person doing the filming.

Woman
"It was thanks to OmniCam that we found out our son was an arsonist and we were able to have him put into a secure facility, he's so happy there now, and we don't have the worry of the house burning down and the neighbours are talking to us again."

Cuts to a man in his house. In front of a large TV images of the gardner and a woman then inside the house then in bed together.

Man
"It's a terrible cliche but my wife was sleeping with gardener and its thanks to OmniCam that she got to keep him and I got to keep everything else. I can't recommend them highly enough."

Cuts back to infomercial guy.

Infomercial Guy
"Those are just two of our many happy clients. Peace of mind now does have a price. And it's a lot cheaper than you might think. Be with the ones you love wherever they are see what they see and hear what they hear. OmniCam....Whatever you see we see."

Cuts back to Johnny in the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"I know I've said it before but I'll say it again I just love OmniCam, I know where my loved ones are all the time and what they are doing. Remember guys daddies watching ha,ha,ha,ha. Now lets go back to our contestants and see how the negotiations are going on."

Thursday, April 21, 2011

Episode 14

Applause and cheers from the audience. Cuts to a room the four contestants are there. We see them from their own cameras and form the ipods. Their images appear on the giant video screen.

Johnny Paradis'
"And now onto the final challenge and our final two teams. Ladies and gentlemen I give you Carl and Sami and Kurt and Lucy good evening finalists!"

Applause and cheers from the audience.

Carl
"Johnny how are you? Good to see you again."

Sami
"Hey Johnny we made it!"

Kurt
"Whats the challenge? We just want to get started."

Lucy
"I'm pumped and ready to rock n' roll."

Johnny Paradis'
"You all sound up for this weeks challenge."

Kurt
"Ready willing and able Johnny, it all comes down to the next seven days and we are going to give it everything. Coming second is not an option for us. Why second is just first of the losers and thats something we sure ain't."

Carl
"It's not an option Kurt it's an inevitability, you are going to come second. Just want to let you know. You may as well give up now."

Lucy
"Yeah you talk it up, but you know it's ours, you guys just don't have what it takes you never did and you never will you're weak and the whole world is going to see that real soon."

Sami
"All that from a back stabbing two faced bitch....If I were you Kurt I'd be watching her all the time. You're going to need eyes in the back of your head."

Johnny Paradis'
"Well no love lost between our teams is there ha,ha,ha,ha but did we really expect to feel the love at this stage? I doubt it. And do we want it? No, is my answer to that question."

Carl
"I've had no love for them since day one. I mean who could like either of them?"

Lucy
"You and her are just oxygen thieves I hope you get what you deserve in this challenge, which is precisely fuck-all. No let me rephrase that a painful, slow death would be your just deserts."

Sami
"Well hopefully somebody will put us all out of our misery and put you down in this challenge and I mean down in the ground. You are just one unpleasant bitch."

Johnny
"Think we better get these guys separated before they tear each other apart ha,ha,ha,ha
lets get onto the challenge, our contestants tonight find themselves in Mexico near the border with the good old US of A. Their task is to convince, bribe or do whatever they need to do to ensure they get to work with two of the most notorious cartels here in the border regions. Whom we have put them in contact with through our good friends at Extreme Tourism....Holidays in Hell are our kind of Heaven. Now these guys have not agreed to let our contestants help them, at this point all they'll do is meet them, if and when they persuade them to help they could be smuggling marijuana, methamphetamine, heroin, to a minimum of $5,000,000. They won't find out until they are trying to get across the border, then they must take payment for the shipment and get the cash back to the cartel. But as a bonus guys, anything you can make above the $5,000,000 asking price is yours to keep, though I imagine trying to barter with the buyers could pose a few problems.""

Carl
"Thats great! Can't wait to start this challenge was made for us."

Lucy
"We are so going to win this challenge with our nerves and negotiating skills I think we'll win the competition plus a nice little bonus on top."

Kurt
"I'll let my actions do the talking Johnny. You can ask me how we did it after we pick up the prize. You may as well make out the cheque right now."

Sami
"You two are all wind and piss talk, talk, talk we're going to walk all over you. Thats if they even get to attempt the challenge I mean who is going to trust them two?"

Johnny Paradis'
"This is going to be a no holds barred final I can tell ! And thats just what we've come to expect from these two teams."

Kurt
"Nothing we won't do to win Johnny, nothing."

Johnny Paradis'
"You've already proved that to us Kurt no doubt about that. I'm really looking forward to seeing you in action this week."

Sami
"I think he's just desperate, trying to talk himself up, I'm so ruthless, I'm so tough, I'm such a mean motherfucker . Your silly little mind games aren't going to work on us."

Lucy
"Thats because you don't have a mind for it to work on you two have to be the most stupid people I've ever met. You think you can beat us? Please. You must be on some seriously powerful drugs."

Carl
"Whats it like being you Lucy? It's all talk, Sami is right. We'll see you when you give us the cheque Johnny."

Cuts back to Johnny in studio. Cheers and applause from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"Thats two very focused teams we have here both of them very determined to win. This is going to be something to remember folks. Don't look away for a second. Who knows what you'll miss? But it's sure to be good and just imagine that awkward conversation round the water cooler having to explain how you missed the show and don't know what anyone is talking about. Well contestants its bye for now people, you'll be introduced to the people you need to meet very soon and we'll be catching up with you then. All I can say now is to wish you, like our global audience of one point five billion does is good luck! Whats our catchphrase folks?"

Cuts back to the contestants.

Carl Sami and Kurt and Lucy
"NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE! NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE! NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE!"

Cuts back to Johnny in studio. Applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"It sure is for those guys and the best is yet to come. And we'll be right back after this message from our good friends at Extreme Tourism....Holidays in Hell are our kind of Heaven."

Cuts to an ad. The ad presenter is like an infomercial presenter. Ad begins with standard holiday pictures resorts sandy beaches, theme parks etc then changes to war zones, the sight of a car bomb attack dead bodies and blood everywhere other scenes of devastation all of them with a happy couple in the foreground posing for a picture.

Presenter
"When someone says cruise do you want to snooze? If someone says lovely coach tours do you think they're bores? If you answered yes we have some great African adventures for you, three weeks with North African pirates or how about a month with a warlord in sub-Saharan Africa? Rape pillage and plunder to your hearts content, Does that sound like you? We can help you organise the holiday of a lifetime. Here are some of our happy clients who made it home just listen to what they have to say."

Cuts to a man in his lounge room large TV showing his holiday videos. Attacking a village in Africa.

Client one
"We had the best three weeks of my life, we lived with a warlord went on two raids into the villages and towns and took part in a massacre! Several interrogations, and boy don't they know how to make someone talk it was just the best fun. We're already thinking about our next holiday in hell."

Cuts to a woman in her lounge large TV showing her holiday video boarding a supertanker with pirates.

Client two
"We took the whole family and got to board and take control of a super tanker held the crew hostage and even helped with the negotiations. I can tell you we'll never forget this holiday. It was excitement from start to finish. I can't recommend them highly enough."

Presenter
"No matter what you want to do, no matter what laws or taboos you want to break here at Extreme Tourism we can help you plan that perfect holiday, just call one of our friendly consultants or check our online package deals we've got something for everyone, no matter what your tastes are because remember Holidays in Hell are our kind of Heaven."

Cuts back to Johnny in studio. Applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"How could you not have fun on holidays like those, seriously, I've had three holidays with Extreme Tourism and I've loved every minute of them. You know you deserve a holiday and those
guys will make sure you have one, one you will never forget. We now know what are contestants challenge is and before we get to see how they go with their negotiations let's get some background information on the cartels that control the border area and what their methods are. And who better to give us all that than our very own Natarsha Metsacker."

Cuts to the border crossing. On the Mexican side. Queues of cars in the background lots of Police and soldiers.

Episode 13

THE FINAL

Applause and cheers from the audience. Johnny Paradis' comes out on stage shaking hands with audience members smiling and waving.

Johnny Paradis'
"Good evening, and welcome to the final of GLOBETROTTERS....NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE!

Proudly brought to you by our sponsors Extreme Tourism ....Holidays in Hell are our kind of Heaven."

Applause and cheers from the audience.

"This is it ladies and gentleman, this is the one, the biggest show of the year, the one we've all been waiting for. Yes, it's the final! The moment of truth is fast approaching for our teams. Who is going to be triumphant ? Who is going to go that extra mile give that little bit more and walk away with it all? By the end of tonight we will have answers to all those questions and to some we haven't thought to ask yet. Or is it we just haven't dared to? Why not tell us what you think. This reality television is real, and this is real TV, real people, real lives, 360 vision 24/7. With a global audience of one point five billion people. And we love you all, and that perfect sound perfect vision is brought to you by our sponsors OmniCam...Whatever you see we see there's no escape from our prying eyes. We see all the blood sweat and tears the lies the subterfuge the schemes and the plans broadcast online streaming 24hrs a day and on satellite through our sponsors Coyote Media....Why howl at the Moon when you can howl with the TV. We never miss a moment of the actions and reactions and consequences that befall our contestants.We started with twelve teams, now we are down to the final two teams who are
going to give us everything they have. $20,000,000 is on the line tonight. Whoever completes our challenge first is the winner. But hey knowing this game if just one competitor finishes that will be enough to win the prize and be named Globetrotters. And what a show we have for you tonight and what a challenge we have for our last two teams. This one is really going to put them to the test, we'll see how far these guys are willing to go for all the money, all the fame. The gloves are off. Were they ever really on? I know what I think. Do you?
And what about last weeks show? Didn't that throw up some surprises? Two teams eliminated.And from those two teams we lost one contestant drowned and three taken into custody by the Australians. And because it's such a special show tonight we are joined in the studio by Sarah and Tommy who are out of hospital and what a surprise we have, live from their hospital beds and just released by their kidnappers are Bill and Stacey, but thats not all folks we have a few more surprises in store for you when we catch up with some of our other previous contestants."

Applause and cheers from the audience. Walks over to Sarah and Tommy. Shakes hands with him and kisses her.

"Sarah and Tommy how are you guys feeling? It must be hard for you knowing this is the final and that it was illness that got you eliminated."

Tommy
"We're just fine thank you Johnny, just gutted that we aren't in the final we would have made it we would have been there. I can't wait to see what the challenge is going to be and more importantly how the teams are going to handle it."

Sarah
"That's right we would have made it except for getting Malaria, we'll be back again I promise you that. But I'd just like to take this opportunity to wish the teams left all the best. They've all played the game the way it's meant to be played."

Johnny Paradis'
"Its great to see you both up and around You're both looking really well."

Johnny walks over to the video screen. We see the hospital room on the screen before it cuts to a hospital room Bill and Stacey in beds hooked up to drips the machine that goes ping etc. Applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"Bill and Stacey welcome home! How are you guys holding up? I'm guessing that you are happy to be back home."

Bill
"We're so glad to be back home, I really can't put it into words that really was an adventure Johnny, that really was. At the moment we just need a few days to recover. Glad to be getting some decent food after two months of well eating something that looked like the dog threw it up."

Stacey
"Didn't taste much better either, but like dad said we're both overjoyed to be home and I'm feeling a little sad we aren't in the final but I'm excited to see who is going to win."

Johnny Paradis'
"That really was an adventure you went on. We'll be crossing back to you guys later.Now, normally at this point in the show we recap what happened last week, as if anyone could forget, but tonight this being the final we are going to give that a miss, but don't worry on next weeks show we'll be going back through all the highlights from this series and do we have some highlights. However, before we go any further though we do have an apology to make last week two boats filled with illegal immigrants landed on Australian soil and we did say we would inform the authorities so they could be picked up. Well, in all the excitement we forgot. Our bad I know. We did eventually remember and after four days on the beach they were picked up, the majority of them were anyway. We'll be sending all of the survivors a Globetrotters gift pack. Its just our way of saying sorry we left you there with no food or water. Enjoy all the goodies in the pack. And viewers you can purchase the same gift packs on line, they make the ideal Christmas or birthday present. And now onto tonights show which is something special and I mean really, really special.It's especially exciting! We've saved the best until last. Now we've already caught up with some of our eliminated contestants but look who else we have a chance to talk tonight. Something that took quite a lot of work to pull off. You'll never guess what it is. Should I tell? Do you really want to know? Ladies and gentlemen boys and girls two of our most popular contestants of all time all the way from death row in the Sudan we have Adam and Simon!"

Applause and cheers from the audience. Cuts to a prison cell, what one imagines a prison cell in the Sudan would look like two unshaven young men in the cell talking into an ipad. A guard has another ipad filming the men.

Adam
"Johnny we are so excited to be back on TV with you on the final, it's a real privilege. I can't wait to see how this unfolds."

Simon
"We sure are, I'd just like to say hi to everyone back home. Thanks for all your support."

Johnny Paradis'
"Its great to have you guys back live with us. So how are things in the sensational, sultry, seductive Sudan?"

Simon
"Well, we got the verdict today in our trial and it wasn't what we were hoping to hear, I'm sorry to say we were found guilty."

Johnny Paradis'
"Oh that's just too bad I hope you can appeal."

Adam
"Oh we'll be appealing ok, but if that goes against us we'd like to auction off the rights to the executions to the highest bidder, no reason we can't turn this situation to our advantage. Fame and money Johnny fame and money!"

Applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"That's what we love about you guys always looking at the positive, always trying to turn the situation to your advantage. If there is an angle in there you are the men to find it, you can see why these guys were chosen for Globetrotters can't you? Aren't they just great? Gentlemen I salute you. What an example to the youth of the world you are kids if you're looking for a role model you won't do much better than these two fine young men."
Applause and cheers from the audience.

Simon
"Thank-you Johnny I can't tell you how much that means to us. And we also want to sell our story about our time on Globetrotters now that we can contact the outside world. We feel we have so much to tell so much to give."

Johnny Paradis'
"And on that note that's all down to our good friends at Extreme Tourism. There isn't a place on the globe where they don't go."

Simon
"We couldn't believe it when their local reps walked in and spoke to us. They were so kind. And it was so nice to see a nice smiling friendly face."

Johnny Paradis'
"That's what makes them so special Simon. They go to places where special forces fear to tread. We'll catch up with you guys a little later on. And of course lets not forget about Jack and Brian and Katherine. They didn't make it through last week but they did better than Derrick. Lets have a moments silence for Derrick...Well thats a moment. Hi guys how are you all? Hope you are enjoying Australia?"

Goes back to the video screen. Applause and cheers from the audience. Cuts to a detention centre interview room. White walls, laminated table. Two guards stand in the background.

Brian
"Hi Johnny"

Katherine
"Good to see you."

Jack.
"Hope you're well, we're still here Johnny."

Johnny Paradis'
"Brian and Jack so close and yet so far. How have you been coping with the disappointment of your elimination?"

Brian
"We were so unlucky Johnny, wrong place wrong time and we got caught. We're dealing with it ok well speaking for myself I feel I am. And when you compare where we are to Adam and Simon it kind of puts it all into perspective. I think they are an inspiration after hearing of their plans its given me the motivation to turn this into a positive for myself and my profile."

Johnny Paradis'
"Thats very admirable Brian. And thats what great about this show not only does it inspire you our loyal audience to be better people but our contestants inspire each other. Jack
you've been through quite a bit how do you feel?"

Jack
"I feel doubly cheated once by, well I won't even say her name and then well my luck just ran out. Theres no justice is there I mean Kurt and Lucy should have been caught. But thats the way things go I suppose."

Katherine
"Oh you two have had it so tough, I nearly drowned and Derrick well he didn't make it and they still haven't got his body...."

Jack
"This is all we've heard it's me, me, me with her all the time. Get over it will you."

Katherine
"He was my partner for fucks sake you insensitive...."

Brian
"And this is all I've heard for days, these are two very bitter people, very self centred, I can't wait to get away from the pair of them."

Johnny Paradis'
"Well, well, well seems like things aren't all that happy on, just wait for the name of this place where they are being held, Christmas Island. Can you believe it? Isn't that something? Is it Christmas day there all day every day?"

Jack
"Funny name hey Johnny and this place is so hot. Nothing like where Santa comes from ha,ha but seriously everyone here has been really nice to us all the guards want pictures with us.
They bring their kids in to meet us. Why some of them are even bringing us in home cooked meals. Being a celebrity is just great."

Brian
"Yeah its true, the locals come down to the fence and have a chat, film us, get us to sign autographs it's been really great to be made to feel so welcome and popular here can't wait to get back home and really milk this for all it's worth."

Katherine
"Thats so true everyone here has been so kind to me in my time of loss...."

Jack
"Enough about Derrick, he's dead, gone, not coming back, we're all tired of hearing about him from you day and night. Just give it a rest will you."

Katherine
"Well I'm not listening to either of them, I'm going to start a memorial blog and Facebook page for Derrick and some footage I've got of us I want to put on youtube make a kind of documentary about his life, show the world what a wonderful man he really was."

Johnny Paradis'
"Just remember any footage of you and Derrick on the show remains Globetrotters property and can't just be used without permission fines for individuals and corporations do apply. We do have to protect our image and good name you know, but good luck with that Katherine. Derrick will always remain with us which is more than can be said about his remains which haven't been found yet I'd avoid the fish if I were you who knows what they've been dining on ha,ha,ha,ha. But seriously who do you think is going to win?"

Jack
"I want Kurt and Lucy to win Johnny."

Johnny Paradis'
"Really after what she did to you, you still want her to win?"

Jack
"Oh yes we're still married but we'll be getting divorced as soon as we can and I'm going to take her for every penny I can get that's why I want her to win just so I can take half her money."

Johnny Paradis'
"Method behind the madness Jack I like that I really do. Why you're a man after my own heart. We'll be cutting back to all our eliminated contestants throughout the show. Whats are catch phrase folks?"

All the contestants images are on the large video screen.They all shout together.
"NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE!"

Johnny Paradis'
"SAY IT AGAIN PEOPLE LET ME HEAR YOU!"

They all shout together.
"NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE! NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE! NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE!"



Applause and cheers from the audience

Episode 12

Cuts back to studio, applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"Those guys are superstars already just hope the can turn their trial into the main event. Best of luck guys you've been great! You've really lived up to our motto NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE! Anyway we have no time to dwell on the past. By good luck or good management we're not sure which Derrick and Katherine are nearly on Australian soil a small island in the middle of the ocean but it's land and its Australian territory and that's what they must reach to complete the challenge and that's all that matters to us.Derrick and Katherine! Land ahoy ha,ha,ha,ha."

Cuts to their boat close to rocks. Big swell. The people on board are beginning to panic. Newsreel footage used.

Derrick
"Thats right we are so close I can almost touch it. We're just going round to a bay where we can land."

Katherine
"Couldn't have happened at a better time really as the engine just quit so we are just letting the ocean bring us in."

Cuts to people near the rocks shouting and waving trying to warn them. Filmed from the
contestants points of view. Newsreel footage used.

Katherine
"And just look at that all those people coming down to meet us."

Johnny Paradis'
"Thats just great guys. But you are getting very close to those rocks not too sure if that boat will bounce considering its made of wood and those rocks are made of....rocks."

Cuts to the recent footage of the boat crashing into the rocks at Christmas Island. People in the water. The people on the rocks trying to help. Small boats trying to pull people from the water. Lots of film from the contestants point of view. The people on the boat are panicing.

Johnny Paradis'
"Oh my I don't know if I can watch. Who am I kidding? Of course I can, Ouch that has got to hurt Katherine and Derrick are really in a spot of bother now, I think I just saw our guys jump into the water I hope they are following safety procedures and have a life vest on. Safety on the water should always be a priority."

Helicopter lands has shows logo on it Globetrotters. Cuts back to studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"Just look at that folks we are on the scene already thanks to our tracking systems and thanks to OmniCam....Whatever you see we see. Lets go back to the island and see what our man on the ground Chris Henderson can tell us."

Cuts back to island shows more of the boat crashing onto the rocks. Aerial footage as well as newsreel.

Chris Henderson
"Thanks Johnny, this is sensational television I don't knowhow many are going to survive, there are a lot of people already in the water some are clinging onto the boat as it gets pounded on the rocks. The locals are trying to save as many people as they can the navy is here as well alongside the locals in boats all doing an amazing job of trying to save these people and risking their own lives in the process. No one knows what has happened to our contestants at this stage, all I can say it doesn't look good for them if they get out of the water the authorities are waiting for them. I think their trot around the globe is coming to an end one way or another. But it really does make for some great viewing. One of the locals here with me. This is a terrible tragedy what are your thoughts?"

Shows Chris standing next to a local man. He's middle aged. Can see other locals in the background taking pictures and filming the boat.

Local
"It's just terrible....All those poor people they've got no chance in that water they'll be smashed to bits on the rocks, we tried and we're still trying to save as many as possible but there is only so much we can do....It's just awful."

Chris Henderson
"Did you know that two of our contestants were on board that boat?"

Local
"Really which ones? Was it Carl and Sami? I really like them."

Chris Henderson
"No it was Katherine and Derrick."

Local
"Oh really, that's a shame I really like Carl and Sami I'd love to meet them, but I suppose its good they aren't here else they would be in real trouble. I don't like Katherine and Derrick much, glad they aren't going to win now, be lucky if they make it out at all."

Chris Henderson
"Thanks for your time."

Cuts to Katherine being dragged from the ocean images from her cameras.

Katherine
"Thank god....I thought I was going to die, where's Derrick?"

Cuts back to studio. Audience going wild.

Johnny Paradis'
"Well, that's Katherine safe and sound we can't get any images at the moment from Derrick maybe his jacket went down with the boat hopefully he didn't as well ha,ha,ha,ha, anyway what that means folks is we have our final two if they both land in Australia and avoid capture by the authorities. Who'd of thought we would lose two teams in this challenge, not me, thats for sure. Now lets see where are other two teams are."

Cuts to satellite map showing the two teams boats both very close to shore.

Johnny Paradis'
"Those guys have made great progress both nearly on shore and we have teams rushing to them even as we speak. Lets check in on them.Do you want to? I know you do? And more importantly I do and it is my show, lets cross to Rory Chambers."

Cuts to Carl and Sami as they reach the shore. People jumping off the boat huge empty beach. As they are pulling the boat ashore a helicopter lands. Globetrotters logo on the side. Camera crew and reporter jump out and run down to Carl and Sami.

Rory Chambers
"Carl and Sami you've made it you are the first team to reach land without the authorities catching you! You must be very pleased with that?"

Carl
"Thats just great I knew we could do it."

Sami
"There's no stopping us now!"

Rory Chambers
"And for coming first in this round you've won $500,000 each thanks to Coyote Media. How good is that?"

Sami
"Wow thats amazing! Thank-you Globetrotters, and a real big thank-you to Coyote Media."

Carl
"Really? That is just sensational!"

Rory Chambers
"Well I have one more bit of news for you so far this round two teams have been eliminated, and you know what that means? You are into the final! Congratulations!"

Sami and Carl jump up and down.

Rory Chambers
"Now we really have to be getting away from here and get you guys to your next destination on Globetrotters now thats an adventure! Back to you Johnny."

They run to the helicopter which takes off leaving all the boat people standing around looking confused. Pans out to show the the bush andscrub and the size of Australia there is nothing no signs of humans anywhere. Shows the boat people getting smaller and smaller as they fly away. Then cuts back to the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"Thanks Rory we have our first finalists for this series and its Carl and Sami, they really have worked hard to get there and how about that prize a cool half million each how awesome is that? And don't worry folks we'll let the authorities know where these illegal boat people are, hey lets hear it for them what great....And may I say very, very cheap....Extras they made."

Applause and cheers from the audience.
"You are such a kind and wonderful audience and now lets go check in on Kurt and Lucy with our reporter on the scene Cristina Cox."

Cuts to Kurt and Lucy on the beach being interviewed as people get off the boat. Helicopter in the background.

Cristina Cox
"Kurt and Lucy well done you've made it ashore without the authorities getting you or dying how does that feel?"

Kurt
"Always knew we would where did we finish?"

Cristina Cox
"Kurt and Lucy you've finished second in this round, but I think you'll be happy to hear two teams have been eliminated.And you know what that means.... You are through to the final! Congratulations guys."

Kurt and Lucy embrace and jump up and down.

Lucy
"I just knew it, I just knew it once we joined forces that was it, there would be no stopping us, we've made it to the final and now we are going to prove that what we did was for the best."

Kurt
"For all we've been through it's what we deserve, you just and wait and see us in action in the next round. Who else is through?"

Cristina Cox
"Carl and Sami will be your rivals in the final challenge but, not only have you made it to the final, thanks to Coyote Media you will also pick up a cool $250,000 each for coming second in this round."

Kurt and Lucy embrace and jump up and down.

Kurt
"Thats just great I just love this show. This is an adventure!"

Cristina Cox
"Now we had better get you guys out of here and onto your next destination."

They run to the helicopter which takes off leaving all the boat people standing around looking confused. Pans out to show the the bush and scrub and the size of Australia there is nothing no signs of humans anywhere. Shows the boat people getting smaller and smaller as they fly away.Cuts back to the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"The final is going to be something else we're going to keep the best till last I promise you that, and what an episode that was folks! Three contestants taken by the authorities, one still all at sea. Or should I say in it good luck Derrick we're thinking of you. Two teams eliminated in one show bringing our final forward by one week, just goes to show how difficult and dangerous that challenge was. A week on a boat sounds so pleasant but that was no cruise ha,ha,ha,ha, we have our two teams who next week we'll see battle it out for the big one in the final of Globetrotters! We'll be here next week with our final show for the year, will you? How could you not be? Carl and Sami and Lucy and Kurt are going to fight it out to be named the winner of Globetrotters. See you all then folks! Now thats an Adventure!

Episode 11

Cuts to a large ocean map and highlights the positions of the four boats with the contestants names.

Johnny Paradis'
"Lets fast forward three days and there's not much to separate any of the teams Carl and Sami still hold a slight lead but Kurt and Lucy are catching them up, and there is nothing in it between Jack and Brian and Derrick and Katherine they need to get a move on or it could be the end of the road for one of them, is your team lagging behind why not send them a message of support. You know they'll appreciate it."

Cuts back to Johnny.

Johnny Paradis'
"Seems like it's getting a bit boring a bit quiet just a leisurely sail across the Indian ocean. Give our guys a chance to relax take it easy well, all thats about to change. Lets cross back to Brian and Jack."

Applause and cheers from the audience. Cuts to footage of a crowded boat then Brian and Jack. Both of them have their ipads. The people on the boat have been there three days now a tarp is stretched out to give some shade. The pictures really conveys the conditions on the boat after a few days. They all look very tired stressed, haunted, scared. Shots from the contestants point of view. For a good few minutes the camera just looks round the boat.

Johnny Paradis'
"Brian and Jack, there have been a few developments since we last spoke."

Jack
"Thats right Johnny about four hours ago we had a plane fly low over us passed us then came back round a couple of times."

Cuts to vision of an airforce plane flying over the boat then back to the contestants. Pictures from the boat and from the plane. Newsreel footage used of a real boat. Jack and Brian are holding ipads.

Brian
"We know they saw us I suppose a lot of it will depend on if they have boats in the area. We're sure it's the Australians we're just going to have to try to outrun and outsmart them."

Johnny Paradis'
"Do you have a plan of action or are you just going to sail by the seat of your pants?"

Brian
"Our first thought was to change course try and throw them off that way. Zig zag around and lose them."

Jack
"Then we thought that's just what they will think we would do and we can't afford the time. So we're going as fast as we can."

Johnny Paradis'
"You think that's going to work?"

Brian
"Thats all we can do at this point its make or break for us."

Johnny Paradis'
"It sure seems like it best of luck guys."

Brian
"Thanks Johnny."

Jack
"We're still in this it's not over yet, and there is no way I'm going to let them two beat me."

Cuts back to studio. Applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"Those guys are still giving it their all I wonder if that will be enough? Or are they up a certain creek without the proverbial paddle ha,ha,ha,ha? Only time will tell....And once time has told us I guarantee you will be the first to know, actually I know something you don't they are in a whole lot worse trouble than they thought ha,ha,ha,ha lets to cross over to Natarsha Metsacker on board HMAS Bundaberg Rum."

Applause and cheers from the audience. Cuts to the deck of the ship of the ship. Lots of activity sailors moving around doing sailor stuff preparing smaller boats to launch. Goes to the bridge of the ship.

Natarsha Metsacker
"Thanks Johnny. I'm on board HMAS Bundaberg Rum with Captain Napoleon Howard, Captain Howard the ship has become a hive of activity can you give us an update."

Captain Howard
"Certainly Natarsha Metsacker earlier on we received a report from a reconnaissance plane of a suspect boat to our west. The plane confirmed that it was an overcrowded boat carrying people trying to gain entry to Australia. Or as we call them SIEVs. We are on a course to intercept them in the next hour or so. No-one gets past us."

Natarsha Metsacker
"We know that one of our teams Brian and Jack are on board that boat."

Captain Howard
"I'm sorry to hear that Natarsha but their trot around the globe has ended and we're going to catch the rest of them too no doubt about that, as I said no-one gets past the crew of the
Bundaberg. Since they were spotted by our plane we've been tracking them they don't have a chance."

Natarsha Metsacker
"You heard Captain Howard, Johnny, looks like it's going to be coastguards one Globetrotters nil."

Cuts back to studio. Applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"I wouldn't count them out just yet, though that captain does seem mighty confident. Lets have a look at our satellite map and see how everyone is doing."

Applause and cheers from the audience. Cuts to a satellite map showing the positions of the four contestants boats and the naval ship.

Johnny Paradis'
"Sami and Carl still have a slight lead over Kurt and Lucy but they are closing the gap....Their experience may well be giving them an advantage as they look to sail into the final three. Derrick and Katherine are still lagging behind but are beginning to make up some ground on the others why do we say ground when they are at sea? Now there's something to ponder on, anyhow the real story of the moment is this, just have a look how close the Coast Guard are to Jack and Brian they really are in trouble. Sorry guys but that does'nt look good, they really are gaining on you."

Cuts back to the boat with Jack and Brian. Shot from the people on board the boat. Looking back towards the contestants gives the feeling of how cramped it is and uncomfortable. Lots of bobbing up and down as the boat moves through the waves.

Johnny Paradis'
Isn't that a great shot folks? That's our hidden cameraman Phil who's on board the ship. Can you spot him? I can't, but I can make him known to us he can hear me. Phil scratch your
head so we can see where you are."

Cuts to a shot of the boat from the contestants point of view one of the men scratching his head.

Johnny Paradis'
"Phil can't see us but we can hear him, Phil what is like on the boat after nearly four days.
Shot from where Phil is on the boat we have his view of his surroundings."

Phil
"This is absolute hell Johnny, it's hot crowded no room to move people have been ill since we left and this boat, I haven't felt safe the whole time. It creaks makes funny noises just doesn't feel right. I don't know what these peoples stories are but they must be really desperate no- one in their right mind would do this, its insanity. This is an absolute nightmare and I know it's a cliche but this is a floating hell. I'll be glad when we get through this one....I think I'll need a holiday after this."

Johnny Paradis'
"I think we all will Phil, I think we all will. This is just getting all too exciting."

First sight of the naval ship approaching. Causes panic on the boat.

Johnny Paradis'
"Do you see what I see ahoy there. Is that the navy? I think it is, prepare to repel boarders."

Phil
"I think it is too. And to be honest I'm glad to see them I want off this boat."

Cuts back to Jack and Brian.

Jack
"Can you see that it's a ship?"

Brian
"I can see it and they can see us, it's over Jack. Done and dusted buddy."

Jack
"We can still outrun them I know we can."

Brian
"This thing is not going to outrun that, we may as well make it easy, we're done."

Jack
"She beat me that bitch beat me I don't believe it, she beat me."

Brian
"They beat us, they played us and they beat us. We're through. I just hope they run them down too."

Cuts to naval vessel smaller boats being lowered heavily armed man aboard. Shows them moving towards the boat at high speed. Natarsha Metsacker is on one of the boats.

Natarsha Metsacker
"I'm on board one of the high speed boats that have run down our contestants, and we are about to come alongside their boat. Unless Jack and Brian can really pull something out of their hat their trot around the globe is over, I can see them they we are going to be escorted over to them so we can get their reactions first hand."

Cuts to the sailors boarding the boat again really shows the conditions on the boat the overcrowding etc and the condition of the boat. People on the boat are panicking some jump or fall into the water. The sailors slowly get all the people from the boat and transfer them back to the ship. Newsreel footage and aerial shots of the boat. Filmed from the contestants point of view as well.

Sailor 1
"Hey look it is them at the back of the boat? We got the guys from Globetrotters. Look at them over there."

Sailor 2
"G'day fellas, wow you going?...We got them just like we said we would."

Sailor 3
"Sorry fellas just doing our job you know, it's nothing personal."

Jack
"Nothing we can do to come sort of an arrangement is there?"

Sailor 2
"No sorry mate we can't help you there your trot round the globe is over. Hey I got to say it!"

Brian
"Are you sure there is nothing we can do? We've got cash."

Sailor 1
"No mate we can't, you've got to come with us back to the Bundy. Hey reckon we'll be on TV?"

Sailor 2
"Mate bound to be, this is as good as it gets. Fuck I love this job."

Jack and brian board the same boat as Natarsha Metsacker she interviews them as they go back to the naval ship.

Natarsha Metsacker
"Jack, Brian congratulations on a really well run race you made it to the final four and you're both still alive which is no small feat as you well know. How are you feeling right now?"

Brian
"Very, very disappointed we could've won this if we'd had just a little bit of luck. I mean these guys won't even takea bribe. I'm just finding it very hard to come to terms with this."

Jack
"It's hard to have come so far, you know been through so much to not get through now is very hard. I feel like I've let so many people down."

Natarsha Metsacker
"Well you can take heart that you gave it your best and on the plus side the penalties for this offence are not that bad. Why it's only a maximum 10 years guys."

Jack
"We were on Globetrotters this is for television, youtube, the real rules don't apply, I mean we're doing this so the folks back home are entertained, I'm sure the media will come to our aid. After all this is show biz. It's not like we are full time people smugglers or anything."

Natarsha Metsacker
"I'm sure you are right Jack and all that will be taken into consideration."

Brian
"We'll be fine, I'm not worried at all no matter what happens to us it can only be good. And that can never be a bad thing, like they say all publicity is good publicity. Now thats an Adventure!"

Natarsha Metsacker
"Indeed it has been."

The smaller boat arrives at the ship. Hoisted up sailors crowd around to see the contestants as the boat people are herded away processed on board etc.

Crew
"Aussie,Aussie,Aussie OI OI OI Aussie OI Aussie OI Aussie, AussieAussie….O,OI,OI."

Natarsha Metsacker
"Just look at the reception these guys are getting!'

Captain Howard greets Jack and Brian personally as they get on board.

Captain Howard
"Gentlemen may I say on behalf of myself and the crew it's a privilege and an honour to have been the ones to have brought your trot around the globe to an end."

Jack
"Yeah, thanks you couldn't have gone after one of the other boats."

Brian
"How much did Kurt give you to come after us I wouldn't put anything past that bastard."

Captain Howard
"You never stood a chance once our plane spotted you, please believe me when I say its nothing personal it's a job."

Natarsha Metsacker
"That gives us our final three Jack and Brian are out of the race but as you can see they are a very popular team, I'm sure they'll be able to take full advantage of that fact once they
get home. Back to you Johnny."

Cuts back to studio, applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"They are all off now and didn't Jack let us all know what he thinks about Lucy, she was no shrinking violet though was she ha,ha,ha,ha but thats what we love about Lucy. How long do you think those new alliances are going to last? I suppose only time will tell, or is it just playing into the other couples hands?

"Lets check in on Carl and Sami our first contestants to set sail to the promised land. Evening guys how's it going out there on the big blue sea? Are you bobbing along nicely?"

Carl
"Hi Johnny, it's going quite slowly here we had quite a strong head wind most of the day and that slowed us down a bit but we seem to be making good progress now. Hey Johnny have the others left yet? Are any of them ahead of us?"

Johnny Paradis'
"Carl, Carl, Carl you know I can't tell you where any of the others are. Nice try though buddy. And what about you Sami how's the journey so far?"

Sami
"Hi Johnny, Been a very long day lucky for us we haven't been too sea sick....Which is more than I can say for a lot of these people on the boat....God only know what they've been cooking back there, but the smell oh my God! Words can't describe it and I still can't quite figure out why, if you get sea sick, why you'd travel by sea? Get on a fucking plane for Gods sake."

Sami suddenly turns round and throws up.
"Oh God....I hate this fucking boat! I Fucking hate it! I don't know how much more of this I can take."

Sami throws up again.

Johnny Paradis'
"A life on the ocean waves hey Sami doesn't seem to be going down to well with you in fact its all coming up ha,ha,ha,ha we'll catch up with you guys a little later on, why don't we see what's happening with our other competitors."

Applause and cheers from the audience. Screen shows an Ocean map then satellite images zooming in on the boat at night until we are on the boat night vision camera shows the faces of the people on board the noises and movement of the boat choppy seas on board looks appalling. Shot from the contestants point of view then goes split screen to show Johnny and the contestants same as on Skype. Kurt and Lucy are at the back of the boat ipads in their hands.

Johnny Paradis'
"Hello there. Kurt and Lucy, how are things going? Is this very new and very controversial alliance you've formed working in your favour? Or have you just antagonised the others and made yourselves new enemies?"

Kurt
"What new enemies Johnny? We've all been enemies since day one. No friends here except your team mate and even then, well things change, but look things are going great for us we've
made good progress. Best thing either of us could have done is to ditch those two losers. Lucy has just been great."

Lucy
"It was the right thing to do Johnny Brian and Jack would have held us back....It just had to be done this is all about winning that was true on day one when we started out with Brian and Jack and its true now. Thats why we did what we did. This is way too important to let sentiment get in the way Johnny, this is about fame this is about winning and money money. And really what else matters."

Johnny Paradis'
"I hear that Lucy we'll be back with you guys real soon to see how you are going."

Kurt & Lucy
"Bye Johnny....Hey Johnny NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE!"

Cuts back to the studio. Applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"It sure is Kurt and Lucy it sure is, now for some reason we are having real trouble in getting a signal from Brian and Jacks boat so we can't hear from them directly but we do have our satellite images."

Cuts to satellite image of a small boat at sea continues zooming in until the people look about 10 feet away. Can see one of the contestants leaning over the side.

Johnny Paradis'
"I can make out....Brian....I'm pretty sure it's him it looks like him well it's definitely one of our guys you can tell by the jacket he doesn't seem to be doing so good though does he
folks? As soon as we can we will cross to Brian and Jack and see how they are doing. And last but my no means least we are going to cross to Derrick and Katherine."

Applause and cheers from the audience. Screen shows an Ocean map then satellite images zooming in on the boat at night until we are on the boat night vision camera shows the faces of the people on board the noises and movement of the boat choppy seas, on board conditions looks appalling. Shot from the contestants point of view then goes split screen to show Johnny and the contestants same as on Skype. Derrick and Katherine are at the back of the boat ipads in their hands.

Johnny Paradis'
"Hi there, Derrick and Katherine how are you both feeling?"

Derrick
"We've both been quite sick. We've managed to keep the boat on course, well I hope he's been able to , thats why we paid so much. But I don't think we are getting very far....It's just so hard to work out distance out here."

Katherine
"Johnny this has really been hard. By far the hardest challenge yet and we've only just started. I've been sick, I'm just exhausted, I don't think we'll get much sleep over the next few days."

Johnny Paradis'
"You just hang in there you are so close to making the final three you can't give up now."

Katherine
"No way are we even thinking of giving up now Johnny no matter how hard it gets we're going to see this through."

Derrick
"We're going through Johnny, this is tough no doubt about it but we'll be there at the end. We're going to walk away with all the money. No one or nothing is going to stand in our way."

Cuts back to studio. Applause and cheers from the audience.

Johnny Paradis'
"That folks is the spirit we look for in all our contestants. No matter how hard it gets they just keep on going, I'm proud of you guys the whole world is proud of you.Well it really looks like some of our contestants are beginning to hit the wall. This challenge is really taking it out of them and I just love to see that. This is where this show separates the men from the boys and the girls from the women."
