RAINN: I guess I just, I'm gonna step off the edge.
BEAR: Okay, Rainn. I'm not entirely sure how strong these ropes are, so just ease yourself off it.
BEAR (off-screen): Actor Rainn Wilson and I are only a few miles from our extraction point. But a deep ravine blocks our path, and Rainn doesn't do well with heights. Definitely the point of no return now. Oh, great job, Rainn. Look at you. Whoo!
RAINN: Oh!
BEAR: Okay. Then you start pulling. That's it. Well done.
RAINN: Oh, man, this is hard. Whoa.
BEAR: How you feeling?
RAINN: I'm gonna need some help.
BEAR: Okay. I'm pulling as much as I can here.
RAINN: Pull harder, please.
BEAR: I'm doing my best. (groaning). Okay. You've got to help me as well. Big pulls.
RAINN: Wait. Wait a second.
BEAR: Another 20 feet. How are your arms feeling?
RAINN: Fried. Like spaghetti.
BEAR: Spaghetti. The last bit, here we go. One, two, three.
RAINN: One, two, three.
BEAR: Okay. You can reach out. I can grab your hand now.
RAINN: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. This is awkward. Oh. Okay. Oh. That was awful.
BEAR: That was awful. You did well. That took a bit of teamwork, that did.
RAINN: Yeah. Okay. Adventuring with Bear Grylls sounds fun in theory, but the reality of it is, it's really hard work.
BEAR: Look at that. Look where, see where you came from.
RAINN: Wow. This has been so hard. I need a nap for the rest of the month. That would've been a good place to die.
BEAR: Okay. We're going this way.
RAINN: Okay.
