Back at Mofo Maji camp, the tribe continues to discuss the irony of Frank's and Brandon's pairing. Kimj thinks "it's the beginning of something really big and permanent." Tom calls the experience "a night to remember," and hopes it's moonlit. Then they make all kinds of not-funny jokes about "hands-on participation" and "[finding] their rhythm together."
And, on second thought, it doesn't appear that the cameraman has a condiment fetish; he has a plain old hot dog fetish. Now we see multiple shots of hot dogs being stuffed in mouths; at Mofo Maji, they regress to whip-cracking jokes. Tom says he's waiting for Frank to walk back to camp any minute and say, "That crazy movie. It ain't even an army movie!" Hee.
As they watch the movie, Frank looks over at Brandon grinning. They appear to be conversing and getting along, but we don't hear much of what they're saying. They're both happily wiggling their feet around. Frank tells us that seeing Out of Africa in Africa was unbelievable. He then says that Brandon's a competitor, and discounts the fact that he made physical contact with him in a high-five as being "in the spirit of victory." He continues, "Still doesn't mean that I'd go to coffee with him." Frank says that winning the challenge with Brandon didn't change anything their situation: he's still "old-fashioned and...don't even go there." Brandon, who can roll his eyes at a handful of popcorn, then tells us that in his "real life," he'd never be around Frank. He says that Frank is abrasive and cold and doesn't really have a warm side to "offset his, um, less than charming personality. Ahem." Frank tells us he accepts the cards he's dealt, and that sharing the reward with Brandon was "difficult for [him] personally," but that all they had to do was watch the movie. We see clip of them exchanging Twizzlers, and then there's Robert Redford. Frank says, "We simply had popcorn; we had pop. We watched a movie. It's history. It's over with. Let's move forward." But really, they look like they're enjoying each other's company. As the camera pans away, Frank jokingly admonishes Brandon to "quit eatin' all the white ones!" Brandon says, "Are there really no more?" And Frank says, "Nah, they're gone. You ate 'em all." Brandon then calls Frank a liar, because he saw Frank eat some of them. Hee.
