There is thrilling canoe video of them making their way across the lake, with Lesley kicking back and relaxing while Sean does all the work. Selma says she wanted a shark to eat them, and I hate to explain to her that we don't have SHARKS in CANADIAN LAKES and then she laughs in a way that suggests she's not actually from Earth, so I'm not going to worry about it too much.
And the "so fun" part of the date is that they're going to join the "Lake Louise Polar Bear Plunge" club, which involves them jumping in the lake, which is just above freezing. Sean tells them they don't have to do it if they don't want to, but he hopes they will. Selma decides that any activity that requires an EMT on hand isn't for her, and opts out. Tierra is equally worried. Of course, ABC has been gleefully promoting the suggestion that she almost dies at every commercial break since last week, so we know this isn't going to go well. You know, assuming she's not just playing it up for Sean and the cameras.
Sean tells us a couple of women seem "stoked" to do it, while others seem "not so stoked" and he clarifies that he generally prefers women in the "stoked" category. AshLee is nervous about doing it, but she doesn't want to be a chicken. And of course Sean is completely lying when he says they don't have to, given the way he cajoles Selma into trying it. He badgers her, telling her this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. She correctly points out that she can jump in a lake ANY TIME.
They women get undressed and into the provided robes, with Lesley hoping that if she gets hypothermia, Sean will give her CPR, which DOES NOT FIX HYPOTHERMIA, like CRACK A BOOK ONCE IN A WHILE, YOU IDIOTS.
Peer pressure takes care of everyone (but Selma), and they all head out to the water, and take the robes off. Daniella hopes Sean appreciates this, which is hilarious since he's pretty much ignored her up until now, so it's not like this is an ultimatum with any kind of power. "Sean is hot, I'm hot, let's just jump in and get cold together," she says.
So they all run in, dunk themselves and run back out again, then bundle back up. Lesley, Sarah and Daniella actually seem to have enjoyed it. AshLee's proud of herself, but she's never going to do it again, she says.
