02x08 - The New Roommate

[bunniefuu]

We would just like to see if you want to be our roommate.

[Glen] I'm beginning a totally new life.

[Beth] My predictions for Glen are very good.

- What do you mean I said-- - I did not accuse me..

You're saying that I said "drop it".

Fight number one, there it comes!

[Jon] It's been tough for us to be together.

I know what you have to say, Jon!

Big deal, I'm cleaning it up now!

[Aaron] Things haven't been too good.

[Jon] 'Don't yell at me like you're my father!'

'You're as screwed up as anybody in this house!'

[Irene] You're not more important than anybody else.

[Dominic] This is the true story..

♪ True story ♪♪

[Tami] Of seven strangers..

[Jon] Picked to live in a house..

[Beth] And have their lives taped..

[Aaron] Find out what happens..

[Irene] When people stop being polite..

[Glen] And start getting real..

[male narrator] "The Real World", California.

This weekend, we're going on an Outward Bound...excursion.

[Jon] We're all kind of excited

that we're getting away and doing something fun.

Everybody started screaming

that we're going on a camping trip.

I thought, great, because I've always wanted to go camping

but I've never been camping in my life

so I really don't know what to expect.

The dude from Outward Bound's coming at O'clock.

[Tami] 'Oh, he's coming at nine.'

[doorbell ringing]

- Hello. - Howdy.

Hi! It's a girl, a lady, a woman.

[Aaron] You think about these mountain types.

If it was gonna be a woman

I thought she was gonna be about '"

she had, like, a beard, she could bench, like, ..

- Hi, guys. - How you doing?

Where can I put these down?

We were looking for someone rugged not someone pretty.

I am somebody rugged!

No, you're not at all.

- I'm Dominic. - Hi, Dominic, I'm Cheryl.

Cheryl, pleased to meet you.

- Aaron. Are you our guide? - Aaron, nice to meet you.

Yeah, I'm gonna be one of your instructors.

- Really ? - Cool. Instruct me.

As soon as our instructor walked through the door

Aaron's jaw just dropped straight down to the ground.

♪ I'm a real wild one wild one ♪♪

I just thought it was hilarious

just to sit back and watch him

try and, you know, act real cool

and smooth in front of her.

Like, you know, maybe he can, like, have a chance with her.

We'll give you the tour.

The grand tour.

Can I move in with you guys?

Actually, that's not a bad idea.

[Dominic] 'You know, Irene's moving out'

'in a couple of weeks.'

- Really? - Yeah.

Maybe we could have a word with her.

[laughing]

[Jon] 'She's dead serious.'

[Cheryl] 'You're goin' out to Joshua Tree national monument.'

The trip is pretty much gonna be..

...uh, a hiking trip and a rock-climbing trip.

You're gonna be carrying everything

that you need with you..

in the back country, okay?

[Aaron] 'Tami's gonna have, like, a microwave'

So will we actually see coyotes and other..

We might, if we're lucky we might.

Tami and Beth will probably have the biggest problem on the trip

because, I mean, they had a problem with

uh, bonding themselves to nature.

Tons of rodents, you know, mice, rabbits, you know.

[Aaron] 'Oh, God!'

Mice?

I'm just hoping nothing comes up to me

nothing comes near me

'cause I would totally freak.

And there are, obviously, no bathrooms.

There are no bathrooms.

We're gonna give you toilet paper

but, you have to pack it out, you've got to carry it.

- Sweet. - In a plastic bag.

You can't bury it.

Um, you use the bathroom, you do what you have to do you

and you have to put it in a plastic

and you have to keep it with you for the duration.

- That's right. - Okay.

[laughing]

It's just, I've never..

- That's okay. - ...done anything like this.

Cheryl is definitely a nice girl, attractive.

Definitely an attitude there.

Uh, it's okay to smoke there?

Okay so, there's no alcohol allowed.

- No alcohol. - That's alright.

'We light a fire in the evening?'

No fires.

Do people ride horses along these trails?

- No. - Could we go caving?

- You mean spelunking? No. - Yeah.

Don't you usually tell people what they're gonna do?

No. No. No.

Let me try and explain to you the situation.

I mean, we should prepare you

it's not like you should come over here turn then.

[Cheryl] 'Okay, my turn then.'

It's my turn for questions, so what can I expect?

A lot of complaining, a lot of bickering.

[Dominic] 'A lot of bitching.'

♪ Where are you going ♪

♪ My beautiful friend? ♪

♪ Is this the road that ♪

♪ We take to the end? ♪

I wanna do my imitation of Dominic.

[laughing]

You don't understand

there's seven people living here.

[Tami] 'Oh, my God!'

Jane!

♪ All we left behind ♪

Why do you think we're doing this?

[Beth] Maybe I'll learn to hate somebody

or maybe I'll learn to like somebody more.

I'll find out.

♪ I'll bless you ♪

Uh, yeah, we need a wake-up at : am in .

Uh, right when we got into town

uh, you know, we were really tired.

I kind of look over at Dominic, and I go

"You know, when's the next time

we're gonna be in Yucca valley?"

[rock music]

Tonight's gonna be one good night's sleep.

Two hours.

Max.

Good morning, it's O'clock, time to wake up, thank you.

[alarms buzzing]

♪ Wake up and smell the coffee ♪♪

[Beth] when we first got there

we met our instructors, Cheryl and Steve.

Everything was laid out on little mats for us.

And they were showing us

what we had to put in each pack.

One thing I wanted to mention

about our plan and we kind of hinted this the other night.

In a nutshell, no sex, no drugs

no rock 'n' roll, please.

You wanna go to w*r, I'll take you to w*r.

Are you gonna wear that derby?

You know, I, I haven't de.. Yeah, stick that in there.

We have to carry our ♪♪♪ out of here, is that true?

It wouldn't be a loss of character

I'd wear this 'cause you're not gonna be

able to wear that with your pack.

I'd like to try.

I'm not teasing you, I'm serious.

Nice a*s I got.

That guy right there, you see?

- He's your favorite? - No, no, no, no.

You're taking actual fecal matter.

Oh, I didn't say that I..

That you have a great a*s.

I think I got too much crap in here.

Were you thinking about that for three days?

No, I.. That's what we were talking..

- Just, write, Tami's bags. - Okay.

I'm not gonna try to be serious with you.

You're just a smart-a*s tour guide.

I am never serious.

Smart-a*s with an attitude.

[Glen] When I went out to the trip, I was sick.

I felt like I wanted to just stop and just

pull out the Nyquil and fall asleep there.

[grunting]

[grunting]

- Well, Beth.. - Well, Jon..

- See ya. - Hey !

You guys, wait!

♪ Come on inside ♪♪

We really have a semi-technical hike a..

Ahead of us, in other words, sometimes it's gonna be flat

'and open, and sometimes we're gonna be'

'helping each other scramble over boulders.'

'If we can be efficient, minimizing our breaks'

'it could be the difference between going'

to bed at O'clock or O'clock in the morning.

At the pace we're going, we'll be probably in..

[Cheryl] 'A of couple hours.'

[Tami] 'Two or three?'

[Dominic] At O'clock they said we were an hour from where we're going.

I don't know where we think we're going.

All we see is big rocks in front of us.

[Aaron] 'It's O'clock and we haven't eaten breakfast yet.'

[Beth] 'How far is it, where is it?'

You think you see the spot

where it opens up, that we're looking for?

- Yeah. - Let me know, shout.

[screaming]

[Steve] 'You guys wanna see where we are?'

'Where we're going? You know where we're goin'?'

- Yeah. Okay. - Do you want a look at the map?

Nope, not if you know where we're going.

[Dominic] 'It's a pointless, and I think it's a dangerous exercise.'

[Tami] 'I hate camping!'

[Dominic] I asked several times, "What are we doing?

What exactly is going on, where are we going?"

Don't ♪♪♪ lie to me

This is what was pissing me off.

As soon as we get over the hill, it's just more of the same.

[Tami] Our guide, Cheryl, did not know where she was taking us.

We were pretty lost at that point.

We got questions like, "how far till we get there?"

[Dominic] 'We're, like, minutes away, correct?'

Well, what is there? Where you guys wanna get to?

[Beth] Aaron was doing a much better job than Cheryl was doing.

[Cheryl] 'You've been doin' great.'

Your navigation skills are great

but...I need a little less attitude, okay ?

- Okay. - That'd be great, thank you.

[Beth] So, we all started, you know, following Aaron

and she got really mad.

[Cheryl] 'How about we sit down and...make a circle?'

[Steve] 'You guys need to make a choice right now.'

- What you want-- - Round, not..

What you want out of this course.

'Cause you guys are pissin' right now.

[Aaron] 'I feel like I'm being talked to like I'm in nd grade'

'and I'm not in nd grade.'

You talk to me like I'm a little kid and I don't appreciate that.

[Jon] This was actually the first time

I can recall that we all really stuck together.

You know, it's kind of like with brothers and sisters.

You don't get along with them, but, you know

if somebody messes with them

you'll, you'll get together.

This bit about sitting around in a circle..

...to me, I'm sorry, I see as horse ♪♪♪.

You're speaking to a woman who's an LA marshal.

[Dominic] I don't think there was one happy person.

Everyone was disappointed or upset over something.

Trapped, I mean, it's like being locked

in an elevator, sometimes.

Stuck in-between floors and you don't know

when you're gonna get out.

[Steve] 'Camp is this way on an angle, about O'clock.'

We're gonna hit a wash, you know, probably a mile.

[Jon] Steve, our guide, made the analogy of

you know, this a w*r.

And if this was a w*r

you couldn't just stop or you'd die.

You know, we didn't like to think of it in that way.

[Dominic] We set up camp in what was a dry wash

which is a river bed that has the possibility

of becoming a river, I believe, if it starts raining.

[Aaron] We need volunteers for cooks tonight

and we need volunteers for breakfast cooks in the morning.

[Beth] I thought, I'll cook dinner

because there's no way I wanna wake up early

and cook breakfast.

[Jon] 'Hey Beth, last time you made instant rice'

you burned the rice and ruined our pot.

This is a brand new pot

she'd better not do that with this one.

I may offer a recommendation, anyone who's gonna do this

when they tell you, "Don't worry about food

we're gonna take care of it."

They're lying. Worry about food.

I did not fart and then try to act like I didn't

while everyone's going, "Dang, what's that smell?"

We lived on trail mix for two days.

It makes you fart like a gas oven.

It's Saturday night, Aaron.

'And we're just happy to have water'

'and some dehydrated chicken soup.'

Pseudo-dehydrated chicken

it's not even real dehydrated chicken soup.

[Aaron] 'Isn't it amazing, like, after a day hiking'

'like, how good this looks?'

[Beth] Steve was just overly excited about everything.

He was like, "Oh, great, this food is gonna be so good!"

[Steve] 'Will anyone eat any chicken'

'with their burritos or anything?'

[Beth] "I'm gonna make beans!"

You just eat it like that?

- Yeah! - Are you serious? Ugh!

[Beth] "Mmm, I love this food"

and...gosh, he was just...he was crazy.

Could we serve this stuff while it's hot ?

[Dominic] I swear to God, I know what it's like

you see them prison movies and they serve up slop

and you say, "How can they eat that?"

You know after you've been eating gorp

or trail mix for hours

you'll eat this kind of stuff.

[Dominic] 'Did someone say sleep?'

'Sleep, time to sleep? Sounds good to me.'

[Aaron] 'We're the only two hardcore'

real outdoorsmen, sleeping out in the outdoors.

- Hey, ladies? - 'Yeah?'

- Are you guys okay? - 'Yeah.'

- You warm enough? - 'Uh-huh.'

- You all tucked in? - 'Uh-huh'

No questions, no problems?

[Beth] 'Yeah, but you can watch guard of our little hut for us.'

[blowing raspberry]

[coyote howling]

[thunder rumbling]

[Dominic] I think it was : in the morning

and I didn't realize this but it started to rain.

And the rain didn't wake me up, it was Aaron

woke me up to tell me it was raining.

And I think I would have been just more than happy

to sleep through it.

Unbelievable, you know, I was sleeping perfectly.

[Beth] 'Why is everybody circling our tent all of a sudden?'

[Irene] 'Like a bunch of sharks.'

[Beth] It started raining really hard

and Aaron had come up to the tent and said, you know

"Can we come in?"

[giggling]

I told him to get away from our tent.

There was no room in there.

So, all four of the guys slept in one tent.

And the three girls slept in the other tent.

[Jon] 'Beth!'

- Get out of bed! - I wanna take a shower.

[Jon] Sometimes, I just had to laugh at them.

I mean, they laugh at me, 'cause I'm not..

I'm not really into the whole LA atmosphere

but the roles were kind of reversed this weekend.

- I want to be carried home! - Me, too.

I just sat back and thought to myself..

Cityfolk!

[Jon] 'This thing drops about feet straight down.'

'And if you were to step over that edge'

'it would be pretty much an inevitable fact'

'that life as you know it, would cease to happen.'

[shrieking]

Irene, step over the red line.

Yep, measuring the distance

has gotta be really right on.

[Aaron] 'I'll talk to Glen? Or, or..'

'Or should Glen talk to..'

[Steve] 'Okay, let's set her down right here.'

'Get her a little more to the edge.'

- A little more to the edge ? - Yeah.

[screaming]

[Aaron] 'Don't, we don't need this, okay?'

[Steve] 'Let's tilt it just a little'

[screaming]

[Steve] This is an activity that, umm..

It's a simulated rescue.

[Irene] When we started lowering her down

I saw the bottom of her lip start to quiver.

[Cheryl] It's okay, it's all right.

[Irene] I was not gonna do it

unless Aaron was going down with me.

I really trusted him the most out of everyone.

[Steve] 'Aaron, attention, attention.'

[Irene] Her life was in basically all our hands.

And if somebody screwed up

she had no way of saving herself.

[Steve] 'Three inches of slack.'

[Tami] One part of the mountainside

was not level with the next step that they took.

And if they didn't judge correctly

they could have, they'd really dropped her

or sent her smashing into the, into this mountainside.

[Jon] 'They're getting on the ledge.'

- How're they doing? - They're fine.

[Aaron] 'Slack, very slowly, very slow slack.'

[Glen] I think it's 'cause you're putting your faith

in someone else.

And virtually putting your life

in someone else's hands.

I think it causes to become more dependent

and, put more faith in each other.

- Slack, do you see him? - No.

[Aaron] 'A little more. Perfect, slack!'

[Cheryl] 'It's good, keep on going, slack.'

Perfect. They touched the ground.

- They did? - Yeah, they're on the ground.

Off blank!

Good job, everybody. Come on!

[cheering]

[Aaron] That was fun, yesterday was like today.

[Jon] 'Yeah, I think we're coming back next weekend for..'

[Aaron] 'Yeah, me and Jon are gonna drive out here next weekend..'

[Jon] Outward Bound two. The sequel.

The insane.

[Tami] Then we moved to the rock climb.

The rope is just there to catch you in case you fall.

In case you come off. You're not gonna fall anywhere

this rope's here, okay? Who wants to go first?

[Jon] 'There you go, Dom!'

[Aaron] 'Be all you can be, Dom!'

[Beth] 'Go, Dommer!'

[cheering]

Thank you very much, you're a beautiful audience.

[Dom] 'Do it Anne, buddy.'

[Beth] 'Sometimes they get in..'

[Irene] 'Oh, jeez. I'm not gonna be able to get up this thing.'

[Tami] 'Okay, bring it in.'

'If that's enough, that's cool.'

- Oh, God. - You're doing great.

Good progress.

[Jon] 'Irene, just a little further.'

'Keep goin'. Good job, Irene.

[Steve] 'Push up, yes! Yeah!'

[Aaron] 'Nice, Reenee!'

[Steve] 'Now, just like you're climbing out of a swimming pool.'

'Yeah, you're.. It's just ten feet.'

[Aaron] 'Reenee!'

Alright, I touched it!

[Cheryl] 'All right, Irene made it!'

[cheering]

I tried to talk my way out of climbing the rocks

I really did, I worked really hard

at every story I could think of.

You can rock climb when you're pregnant.

But there's no possible way I can go up this.

Oh yes, there is.

- No, there's-- - Oh, yes, there is.

[Beth] 'Wait, wait, how pregnant are you?'

Early, Beth, thank you for telling

the whole world my business.

Gr.. Thanks.

But I had to do it.

Everybody had to do the rock climbing event

and I wasn't too happy about it at all.

- Oh, God! - Good job, Tam!

Nice, Tam! Nice, girl!

What? There's nothing for me to grab on to.

You just go as far as you want, Tami.

I feel like I'm gonna fall. Steve?

- Yeah. - I'm gonna come down.

[Steve] Alright, I got ya.

[Jon] 'Come forward, Aaron.'

'Yeah! Go, Aaron!'

[Tami] 'I am in hell.'

[panting]

- That's it. - What do I do?

[Steve] 'Now, just lean right up, listen to me, lean right up.'

Aaron, you at the top ?

Straight down.

Aaron, alright, okay, I'm lowering you, come on down.

[Steve] 'Look at Aaron.'

[Tami] Yeah, but--

[Steve] 'That's what you wanna do, you see how he's leaning back?'

- That's it. - Wait.

Oh, ♪♪♪.

Can somebody come and get me?

I didn't succeed, I didn't do what I wanted to do.

So, I picked the person who was the best at everything

and I just totally exploded at him.

I don't want anybody to feel sorry for me.

- Then, shut up! - No, I'm not gonna shut up.

And let me tell you something about you.

You don't congratulate anybody.

- You think you're the best-- - Glen, what's the first..

- Glen, what's the first thing-- - Everything you think best at.

You think you're the best at every ♪♪♪ thing.

The only one you even communicate with is Dominic.

I guess hours in the desert

and the heat had gotten to her.

I got to go.

I'm getting irritated.

Care for dinner?

[Irene] I think the experience of Outward Bound

has brought me a lot closer to everybody.

I've seen their bad sides and their good sides

when we were out there and they're all good people.

And there was a time

when I was walking down the trail by myself

where I wanted to cry

because I was gonna miss everybody.

[Cheryl] 'One last circle.'

We have your Outward Bound pins here.

Instead of handing them out to each of you

I think it might be a little nicer

if you all choose a pin

and present it to somebody who you think deserves it.

[Irene] 'I'm gonna give mine to Beth.'

I will never ever forget the look on her face..

[Aaron] It was right before we had her over the ledge

And her chin trembling on the way down

And she made it.

I would like to give mine to Aaron

because Aaron really took the time

to help everybody out.

- So I want to give you this. - Thank you.

[Dominic] 'Yeah, Aaron.'

'I want to give mine to Glen, because he's real sick and he..'

He made it through anyway

and showed a lot of guts, I think.

- Thanks. - Definitely Glen, good job.

I'd like to give mine to Jon

because when everybody was gettin' upset

Jon kept on remindin' us that this should be fun

and that we should be enjoyin' it.

I'd like to give mine to...the Dommer.

[Dominic] Ah!

Only because Dom is, like, the person

that, that dishes out those one-liners

and tries to keep everybody halfway sane.

- So, this is just-- - Thank you, Tamster.

[Glen] 'Alright, Dom.'

I'd like to give mine to Irene because

well, we hung out quite a bit on the trip this weekend.

- We had fun together. - Yay!

I want to give mine to Tami.

[laughing]

And, uh, this is just because I know she gets pissed off.

But uh, I just think she did a good job.

And, uh, I was proud of her on the rock today.

- Here you go. - Thanks, boo.

[Beth] One, two, three.

[all] Home!

[Aaron] 'Let's get the hell out of here.'

- Home! - Homeward bound.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

[Dominic] 'Hold on.'

'If you're lucky.'

[Beth] 'Easy does it.'

[Jon] 'Party on, dude!'

[Dominic] 'I drove one of these across country, don't tell me.'

[Aaron] 'Hey, hey! Hey! There's a ditch.'

[female narrator] On the next "Real World.."

[Aaron] I don't believe in pre-marital sex.

Oral sex is sex.

In case everybody didn't already know

by now, um, that I'm pregnant.

When I make a call on my calling card

I'm paying the bill

and I don't like for you to pick up the phone

every minutes and see if I'm on it!

- Beth! - 'Wild guess, here.'

I am trying to sleep.

Irene! This is what it is.

Aaron, Dominic, I'm sleeping!

I totally respect that.

Dude, dude, I totally respect that.

Me?

[Dominic] 'Yeah, that's a holly-golly..'
