So the tribes have been given a tool box filled with nails and tools and whatnot. That seems like cheating. Although I guess it still requires having someone who knows how to hammer in a nail. Luckily, Ralph the Redneck Farmer has those kinds of skills. He immediately starts laying out where their shelter should go, but not in a jerky way. There's some other dude on Zapatera who has white hair but also a six-pack. I'm just going to call him Silver Fox. He reminds me of Rob Lowe's character on Parks and Recreation because he always seems really happy and obviously works out. Anyway, Ralph whips off his shirt to get to work, as you do, and reveals a copious man sweater. I guess they don't have waxing down on the farm. So then there's an inspirational montage of everyone working together to assemble the shelter. One of the ladies totally does not know how to use a hammer. You don't hold it up by the head! You hold it closer to the bottom so you can get some force behind it. Damn. Also, Russell is just walking around watching everything, while Ralph is hoisting people up on his shoulders so they can nail things together. Who's the leader of the tribe again?
Over at Ometepe, Rob has taken charge of assembling the shelter. Well, I don't know how much he has taken charge and how much everyone else has put him in charge, as they all seem to be sort of standing around waiting for him to tell them what to do. One of the younger ladies even asks Rob to tell her how to do something (gather firewood maybe?) and he says that she knows what she's doing, but in a nice way. Her name is Natalie, and she is a professional dancer. Like a pole dancer? Or like a ballerina? Anyway, she doesn't seem super bright. But she's definitely in touch with her feelings.
