know why you do this.
OK.
See ya, Buck.
All right. You...
You take care of the doctor
and jerry, OK?
Nasty!
That was disgusting!
I got dog spit all in my mouth
and my nose!
It's not funny.
I don't see what's so funny.
All right.
Take care, guys. We'll see you.
- Bye.
- See ya.
All right, team!
Last hike of the season!
Let's go! Hike! Hike!
Come on, jack! Come on, Old jack!
Let's go, Maya! Come on, girl!
Whoa! Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa!
What's the problem?
We got ice fields up ahead.
I don't know how thick the ice is.
That's why we couldn't take
the snowmobiles. Look.
So, what do we do?
I'm gonna change things up.
Put the dogs
in a fan formation for safety.
It's a little slower,
but it spreads the weight out.
That way if one of the dogs
falls through the ice,
the lead's long enough
so the rest don't follow.
Hike!
Hey, doc.
- You see that over there?
- What is that?
Here.
You see 'em?
- I see 'em. What are they?
- Leopard seals.
More leopard than seal, if you ask me.
- Give 'em a wide berth?
- Yeah, we'll give 'em space.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Whoa, kids! Whoa!
- What was that?
- We're on a glacier now.
We're gonna have to
take her slow, doc. Get off.
I want you to take the brake.
You're gonna run the sled. All right?
Heavy brake.
Follow my footprints.
Keep the sled on my footprints.
- I'll probe ahead.
- Got it.
This glacier's always moving,
so we have to be careful.
All right, doc. Keep two feet
on the brake if you need to.
- Just keep a steady go, all right?
- All right.
All right, kids, come on! Easy, now!
Nice and easy. Let's go.
All right, stop! Stop!
All right, hard brake, right there!
We got a crevasse right here.
I'm not sure how big it is,
so we're gonna go around. OK.
We're gonna bring it over this way.
Slow and easy.
I'm gonna call Maya over,
and then I just want you
to let up ever so lightly, all right?
- All right, got it.
- All right, Maya, haw! Haw!
Haw! Haw!
Max, what are you doing?
Max, no. Haw!
Max! Stop! Stop, Max! Doc, stop!
No!
Hold on, doc!
Doc! Put both hands on the sled!
Both hands on the sled, doc!
Hike! Come on, jack, take it home!
Come on, Maya, take her home!
Come on! Hike!
Oh, man!
You OK?
Yeah.
Do me a favour.
Next time you decide to go to Melbourne,
don't pack so much stuff.
And try coming a bit earlier.
Andy said the trip was fine.
You agreed to go.
Andy's my boss. I do what he says.
If you didn't think it was safe,
you shouldn't have backed down.
Easy.
Jerry, thanks for today.
Yeah. No problem.
Who's the artist?
My son, Eric.
He does one every trip.
He looks like your wife.
Lucky kid.
Yeah.
What about you?
You got somebody?
Are you kidding me?
I'm here six months a year
dragging scientists around.
What kind of woman
would put up with that?
How about Katie?
Looked like you might've had something.
Yeah. A couple years ago we did.
You know how it goes. Sometimes
it works, sometimes it doesn't.
I guess relationships
don't fit my lifestyle.
Anyhow, come on. Let's go outside, guys.
We're gonna get an early start tomorrow.
Come on. Come on, Max.
Come on, Max.
All right, whoa!
Hold it. Put on the brake,
I'm gonna take it from here.
Yeah, got it. Whoa!
What do you say?
- That's something else.
- That's Melbourne.
- That's your home for the next week.
- Beautiful.
Ready, now! Hike!
Victoria, this is McMurdo Weather.
Come in.
Victoria? This is McMurdo Weather.
This is Victoria. We copy you, Mactown.
Hi, Andy. It's Steve.
Just checking status on your team.
We've got four at the base
and two in the field. Over.
Suggest you bring them in.
We have two massive
low pressure systems moving south.
Control wants you in early
just to be safe. Over.
Copy that, Mactown. Over and out.
Get jerry on the radio.
Wanna sling me a cup of that
when you get a chance?
Yeah, sure thing.
- You got her?
- Yeah, thanks.
How's that looking there?
Well, everything points
to the spot
