Overview:

The next mission requires each of the Road Rulers to spend 48 hours alone in the wilderness where they will each record their own video diaries. Holly protests when she learns that she can't bring her Bible with her during her isolation in the wilderness. While spending his 20th birthday alone in the wilderness, Theo becomes emotional as he reminisces about his deceased father and how much he misses him. After dark, the mission becomes much more terrifying, especially after hearing the shrill of a loud whistle, signaling that one of the team members is in trouble. The mission mayors discover that the whistle call came from Holly, who lay frozen in her tent, terrified by her fear of ghosts. This mission creates a new bond and appreciation for one another, as the Road Rulers face only one more week together.
