My nephew Jesse is coming in on the flight. I'm bringing the Young Gun in.

"Hey Jesse, how's it going? How are you doing? Thank you for helping me out."

Mhm, I am Jesse Moore, and I am from Fairbanks, Alaska. I'm here because, uh, my auntie happened to get in an accident, and I am here to help her with anything she happens to need.

I know you're probably tired; you're probably hungry, but, um, I've got big wig people coming in in the next few days, so gotta get that water line okay. Get it rolling!

I know I want to hug you and be the auntie and be cool, but, you know, let's get to work.

"Yeah, hold this while I undo this. Gotta do what I can. Try to keep cavic going. There is absolutely zero running water in Camp. The only water running in Camp is in the river. So this absurd system is how I get my water. We're going to suck it out of the river, up through this piping, pump it through the filters into the Waterhouse. Take this side in; it's going to go in here and sent around Camp. You got water? You feel it here? You got water, Jesse. You level that out. I'm going to check the other, uh, side of it, see if there's water coming out.

All right, I can already hear it. I got me some water. All right, I've got everything done in there that I can do, and the big test is will it come out of the spell?"

[Music]

"Yeah, I've got water! Help! We have [Music] water!"
