[The adventure continues as we embark] [on a new season.] Find the best angle. [In an unprecedented move,] [the team gathered 50 days prior] [to perfect the plan,] [ensuring everyone had their say.] If you’re confident in your language skills, stand up. Good, the rest of you are dismissed. Are they all high-maintenance or something? I can be a bit impulsive at times; I dive in without thinking. Why make things so complicated? I’m happy to let others take the wheel. I’m always eager to lend a hand! Being entrusted with such a crucial task, I’ll just have to step up. Welcome, Ying! [However, 12 hours before departure,] [before their first meeting,] [they were hit with a challenge.] 100 yuan to split between seven people? I’ll need 60. [The task was to collaborate on cooking] [one dish with just 100 yuan.] I’ve only got 8 yuan. That’ll hardly get you anything! Just a small portion then. The vinegar’s way too expensive. Can’t afford it. 6.1 yuan? Let’s cut back on that. The eggs won’t be delivered until June 30th. My family recipe: tomato & egg stir-fry. [Their collaborative masterpiece:] [a signature tomato and egg stir-fry.] Adding some fancy decorations on top. It looks as good as it tastes. [Their dish won over the Madagascan Ambassador] [and his wife’s palates.] Very nice! Very nice? Previewing their week-long wildlife tour. Yet before the journey kicks off, each one faces one last challenge. Divas Hit the Road! The Playful 7 [Divas Hit the Road · Hearts United]
comes from innocent hearts! [The ad is aired in this period of time] [In a journey shared with others,] [what defines true companionship?] [Does unity] [mean conformity, becoming identical] [in what we choose?] [The crew faces their first tour guide selection.] “Guides needed: Volunteers only.” “If you’re ready to take the lead” “and serve as the guide…” “Return to the One Heart Kitchen.” “Those who wish to just be regular members” “and savor the experience” “can proceed to the airport now.” [This guide selection is more of] [a complex dilemma.] What’s the right move? Off to the kitchen we go, thanks! To the kitchen! One Heart Kitchen it is. As I predicted, Wanyi second, Ying third. Oh yeah? Everyone’s back! Indeed. Are we just going to the airport? Might just be you. You mean just me? Anyone will head straight to the airport? I wouldn’t blame them if they did. Agreed. I’ve been rallying the troops. “All for one and one for all!” How cute is that? Just go! Ying’s just precious. Perfect, everyone’s in. It’s unanimous. Well, if Ying’s joined in… what are we waiting for? Let me check the group chat… Yep, messages are there. You’ve been a tour guide before, right? How did you know that? We talked about it when we first met. No sign of Sichun? Let’s give her time. Probably just stuck in traffic. You think so? In any group, it seems just having one person out of sync can cause so much anxiety. The burden of being different weighs just as heavy, guide or not. I used to run from confrontation. Now, after weathering many storms, I can face it. But I feel like I’m always torn between two selves. The old me surfaces, urging caution, patience, and people-pleasing. Then my newer self steps in, reassuring me “It’s OK, you got this.” Truth is, I’m still discovering my own limits and capabilities. [Must we strip a pepper of its spice,] [or mint of its freshness?] [Or can we journey together] [while embracing our unique qualities?] She’s here? Sichun! Over here! Everyone’s here? That was fast! Come on! Made it! At first, I wanted to back out. Guide? Nah. But during my internal debate, I realized that regardless of my decision, I needed to be there with everyone, sharing my thoughts in person, instead of running away. Ready to make your choice? The kitchen it is. I’m heading there, even though I’m not certain about my choice. But I feel being there is crucial because we need to discuss this together. Sichun was considering going to the airport. Right, I was hesitant initially, making quick decisions isn’t my strong suit. But after taking a closer look at the card, I decided to join in. Working it out together with everyone seems like the right approach. Indeed. Whether it’s you or me guiding, we’re all in this together. Yeah. Let’s skip the cards, and make decisions together. Right on. Absolutely. It’s heartwarming that everyone came back, and even better that everyone was honest about their limits. This is what makes it fun. This is reality show at its finest. Everyone returning without prompting gives me such confidence. I knew it, this team would work out. We’re about to reveal who will be our guide for the first destination. [Divas Hit the Road · Hearts United] [[The ad is aired in this period of time]] Based on everyone’s responses to the director’s questions during our car ride, the guide chosen for our first destination: I’ll volunteer as a guide this season, just not for Madagascar. I’m not equipped to handle the first stop. I’m available to help out unlimited times. I’d prefer guiding later stops. For our first destination, Gong Jun might be the most qualified. I’ll take the first stop, Madagascar. I’ve already sketched out some plans. For the first stop, Gong Jun has volunteered. I promise to give it my all. You’ll have our full cooperation. Thank you. Great! Thanks. The guide’s role is crucial. As a man, I should take initiative. It’s about taking responsibility. When I know I can contribute, I should step up. I’m ready for this. Whatever you need… Just say the word. He will assist me, right? I’m heading to the airport. What’s your star sign? Taurus. Perfect for finance. Taureans are quite thrifty, right? You handle the finances. Here is a travel guide about Madagascar. Thanks! Oh, two books? Anyone want to check them out? [The crew is set to visit] [four locations in Madagascar.] [The capital Antananarivo,] [known as] [“The City of 1000 Warriors,” can’t be missed.] [As the capital,] [it offers both panoramic views] [from the Rova of Antananarivo] [and glimpses into the lives of 80,000 people] [living amid the rice-scented air.] [Outside the capital lies Andasibe Rainforest,] [a pristine wilderness that] [cradles hundreds of species.] [Beyond being a sanctuary for lemurs,] [it’s a UN certified conservation site.] [Yet 800 kilometers away] [lies a surreal sight:] [baobab trees that seem to defy gravity.] [These ancient giants] [have witnessed 200 million years] [of Earth’s history.] [As their downy fruits nourish] [the endless landscape,] [the skies above offer a free bonus:] [One-of-a-kind sunset and starry sky spectacle] [But who’d have guessed,] [Cross Madagascar,] [and you go from stars to the deep sea.] [Welcome to Madagascar’s] [sanctuary for humpback whales,] [Saint Marie Island.] [Thousands of humpback whales] [arrive here like clockwork every Jul. to Sep.] [In this epic whale dating spot,] [if luck’s on your side,] [you just might spot] [the whales’ exclusive courtship displays.] Next up is Madagascar, we want you all to focus on the rich wildlife, record what you observe, and we’ll compile it to this guidebook later. Homework time? You bet. How’re we sorting out the budget and hotels? For the trip funds to Madagascar, we’ll hand them over, once we land in Madagascar. Give it directly to you. Okay. All the cash covers hotel stays, renting rides, and your meals. Those three basics. Gotcha. First things first, with our super short, under-24-hour layover window, we’ve hooked up your spot for the first stop in Andasibe. Awesome. Since the kickoff is locked in as 7 days in Madagascar, Gong Jun’s gonna lead the pack to soak up every bit of those 7 days. Cool. I’ll hash it out with the Wanyi, and we’ll decide together. Sounds good. As the first-stop guide, I gotta step up. Gotta bring the energy. I’m all about getting stuff done fast and smooth. No messing around. They’ve got all our transfers mapped out. I’ll snap a pic for you guys. Save this schedule, guys. Here are the four spots we’re going to visit in Madagascar. Landing at 1:45 PM local time, at the capital city, we will head to Andasibe. Then back to the capital. On July 1st, we hit Morondava. In July 2nd afternoon, 4:40 PM, we’re at Saint Marie Island. And that’s when we go see the humpback whales. What’s your idea of the perfect trip? I’m not picky. Food-wise, as long as it’s clean and safe, nothing too extreme or out there. Transportation-wise, safety’s number one for me. Comfort’s next. Like, bumpy roads or long drives, can we get a better ride to cut down on exhaustion? For me, where we stay is all about rest. As long as I can crash properly, I’m good. Rest is huge for me, in a way. Because, honestly, I’m not exactly built like a tank. So, I’m most worried about my stamina. When we go see the baobab trees, wouldn’t 3 PM be a better time? Yeah, we could tidy up first. A quick question, if we arrive at 7:40, can we check in to the guesthouse? Yeah, I’ll check if the guesthouse allows early check-in. Yup, half a day early. If not, it’s gonna be a hassle. I’ll sort it out. My motto? Travel happy. Two activities in the morning, two in the afternoon, then back to the hotel. That’s the dream plan. Four activities a day… You think it’s too much? What do you think? I dunno. That’s the vibe, though. That’s how I roll when I travel. If we’ve got enough budget, we shouldn’t skimp on this. Let’s find a super reliable guide. This is one thing we absolutely can’t cheap out on. I hired one on that app in Turkey before. So sharp. Yup. Super clear-headed. A good guide needs to be logical and quick on their feet for unexpected stuff. DM’d him… Hope he doesn’t trick me. Already replied. Hold up. Where exactly are we going? Right now, Wanyi, Andasibe. Then back to the capital, then Morondava. So, right now, should we check out hotels? Sure. Alright, let’s do it. The first night in Andasibe is covered. We can stay somewhere nice. This one? Looks awesome. Yeah. It’s like we’re princesses living in a castle. Isn’t it? Totally. I think that one’s pretty good. Because we’re seven people, and we’re not super tight yet. Everyone has different preferences too. So the guide’s gotta keep things smooth. This feels much better. That one doesn’t. It’s basically a cart. But this one’s got space. Plenty of room for luggage. I think for the ride, if we’ve got the budget, we should pick a better car. Because we’re gonna be wiped out. Not sure if all our luggage will fit. It’s a bit small. Is there any chance… A van for 10 people could hold our stuff? Which is pricier, the jeep or that one? Jeep’s more expensive. So it’s just the van or the SUV we can pick, right? Hey, the safest bet is renting two vans. Two vans? Cheap and roomy? That’s the vibe, right? Yup, the best way. The safest, most reliable option. So we don’t end up with luggage that won’t fit. Got it. That’d be bad. Totally, yeah. Then there’s a quiz. Madagascar stop quiz. What’s the quiz for? Every time we finish exploring a Belt & Road country, there’s one of these to test what you learned on the trip. The funds you earn from this quiz go to your next two stops. How well you do on the quiz decides how much fun you’ll have. Quiz for cash in Czech & Norway. Yup. Cool. So the July 4th quiz is super important, guys. So far, I think everything is heading in a really solid direction. But, I’ve got this one flaw, managing money. I’m seriously bad at numbers. I never keep track of expenses. Sis, mind switching seats? No problem. Meeting time. I wanna sync up with him. So, like… Hold up, I get carsick. Look up. You get carsick? Snap a pic of us giving it our all. Right, let’s pose for a scene shot. Add some lighting. Get some face light in here. This is way too pro. Morondava airport pickup to the guesthouse, then guesthouse to the baobab trees, right? And then, in Morondava, the accommodation is free of charge. Camping. So we crash there till the next morning. But if we’re camping in tents, we still need a spot for, like, half a day. Gotta mention, July 1st… If we wanna save cash… We’d need… To save the most, just one room. Take turns showering and freshening up. One room? One room won’t do. Zhang Wanyi, you’re such a penny-pincher. Taking turns to wash? That’d take, like, four hours. I’d just skip showering. Save some bucks. I’m fine not washing. If I had to live with you, I’d lose it. Frugal vibes are cool, but since camping’s free, we don’t need to be too stingy during the day. Let everyone relax, take a nice shower, do their makeup and sort out our stuff. No biggie, let’s get a total quote first. Then we’ll haggle. Bargain hard, huh? Yeah, let’s see how low we can get it. Wanyi is great. He’s incredibly frugal. A real housekeeper who’s good at managing the household budget. I bet Gong Jun is a J person. Am I right? Yes. I’m a total planner. That’s what I said. I handled all the itineraries when travelling with my parents. We’re just one letter apart! Really? What is your MBTI? It’s ISTP. So you dislike making plans. That’s true. Me neither. Are you a P person? We are the only two J people here. I’m a J person. Yes. How about you? I’m ENFJ. Great. A team can’t do without an E person. Everyone’s arrived. Let’s go! Go! Let’s go! Take a trolley. I’ll fetch one. Here, take it. Put the luggage here. I’ll take it. [The newly formed Divas Hit the Road Crew] [is about to depart from Beijing.] [Whether it’s full of surprises or scares,] [they’ve begun their journey] Two pieces of luggage. Did any luggage exceed the weight limit? Mine didn’t Mine, neither. I’ve no problem. So we are all fine, right? Great. Dear friends, we’ve passed the security check. Now we are heading for the lounge. Remove the makeup, take a shower, and rest. Don’t tell them we’ll shower! Well, we still will. This is a hotel. We can stay here for free, right? Get in. Yes. It’s free. Thanks. Smart savings, bold spending. Truth. It’s free. Is our stay here free? Yes. [Meanwhile,] [the rookie has switched] [to “battle mode”.] [One phone call was all it took to transform] [an entertainer into an errand runner.] Hey, I’d like to double-check a thing with you. So we are getting two business vans, right? Are they minivans or what? [Facing an uncertain journey,] [every traveler is fortifying their bodies] [like prepping for a battle.] Will the airline serve porridge? No way. I’ll swallow this porridge. Yes. Cherish the good food. I’m gonna load up on this pickled mustard. Did you bring some? Yeah. Like 20 packs. On the 29th, the plan is lemur watching in the morning followed by hiking. So lunch is included. OK. Honestly, I’m still a bit unsure, since we only communicate online with the local tour guide. I double-checked everything with him. Does the guide speak English? Chinese. Chinese, great! I checked things with him for many times. I was worried he wouldn’t show up. Then we will be screwed. In that scenario, it’ll be a catastrophic start. Ethiopian Airlines. We are taking Ethiopian Airlines flight. Ethiopia. [Departing from Beijing,] [after their 12-hour Zen-like journey] [arrived in distant Ethiopia.] [Of course, this is just the transit point.] She’s resting with closed eyes. She’s settled into meditation. Seated meditation, and entered deep samadhi. [Beyond exhaustion and swollen faces,] [their bodies and fates now] [are inextricably bound together,] [and so is their money.] Everyone has had breakfast, right? Yes. I’m the only exception. You had nothing? Excuse me. I want this one. You are dipping into the travel fund now. Oh, Sichun, come back. We are spending the travel fund. Then I won’t have it. Take one. Sorry, I don’t want it. 3, 2… [Departing from Ethiopia,] [they had another 5-hour flight.] [Battling jet lag and exhaustion,] [they finally reached their first stop,] [island wildlife sanctuary, Madagascar.] Welcome to Madagascar. After 18 hours of flight, how are you feeling? Pretty good. Energetic. Awesome. Marvelous. So now we are going to hand you the travel fund for this stop. OK. That’s 26,000 yuan. 62,000 yuan. If that’s 26,000 yuan, I’ll go home. 26,000 yuan converts to… A bag of money! 39.06 million MGA. So much money! 39 million, we are millionaires! This bag is truly filled with money. It’s heavy. Feel it. Look. This money… I won’t take the bag. Give it all to Zhang Wanyi. All of it. Here, Zhang Wanyi, take good care of it. We have a CFO! Chief Financial Officer. Take your cute little straw bag! We should take turns. Sure, we can take turns. But you are the first. Take care of it. Just for a while. You are officially appointed as our CFO! I can still go back. And now, presenting our group’s CFO OK. CFO. CFO. Also, we had 8 yuan left when we were in Beijing. Really? It converts to 5,000 MGA. We can use it for tipping.

Hi Harry, are you at the gate now? How should I address you? Xu. Hello. Hi, Xu. This way. This is Xu. Yes, he’s Xu. Xu? Xu. Okay. The weather is nice. Give them each one or two yuan as tip. My (bag)… One or two Yuan. Is there one Yuan? Where did that eight Yuan go? I have it. Give them the eight Yuan. Yes. Hello, guys. This is for you. (Tip) For you two. Thank you. The front passenger seat is also available. I think… maybe I’ll sit in front row? Sure. I will talk to him. Alright. I’ll sit in the back then. One, two, three, four, five, six… Enough? Wanyi can sit with me. Great. Now I have an excuse. Come here, Wanyi. I get carsick. Should have told us. I get carsick. You are so… Do you prefer window or aisle? Anywhere’s fine as long as it’s front. No problem. You okay here? Sure. Let’s sit in the back. Leave the seats up front for our tour guide and the local guide, who will have conversations. Let me introduce myself. Hello, my surname is Xu, full name is Xu Weiquan. Xu with double person radical. Wei as in Weida (Great). Quan as in Quanshui (Spring). I studied in Beijing from 2017-2020, now working as tour guide in Madagascar. Thank you! I’ve always wanted to meet you. Thanks, we can meet… This singer and all of you. He said he wanted to meet me. ♪Just like that you conquered me♪ He practiced a song before meeting us. We’re departing the capital for Andasibe, about 150 km, 4 hours drive. Alright. [This is Madagascar,] [a country famous for animated films.] [As the world’s fourth largest island,] [it bid farewell] [to the Indian plate 88 million years ago,] [embarking on its unique evolutionary journey.] [Animals do their own thing,] [plants grow their own way.] [Of the over 200,000 species,] [more than 90% are endemic,] [an exclusive treasure,] [dubbed “the last Noah’s Ark on Earth.”] [Though later disturbed] [by colonization, after struggles] [it became independent,] [the “least African” African country.] [It features Africa’s wilderness,] [while maintaining rice-eating custom,] [and embraces modern civilization.] Look! They’re playing soccer! So cool, the way they play! Yeah. In the wild. Yes. Playing soccer. Who knows? Maybe one of these kids… Will become a superstar. A superstar footballer. Very much possible. [The travelers couldn’t help but start bouncing along.] [This is Madagascar’s unique welcome ritual.] [A very bumpy ride ahead.] [Why so many potholes suddenly?] [Because the land holds treasures,] [endless gemstones and vanilla,] [bringing continuous wealth to the nation.] [If you suddenly find smooth road,] [locals will proudly tell you] [that’s made-in-China friendship!] This road was built by a Chinese company. No wonder it feels familiar. Yes. The Chinese Embassy is on the right. That white wall marks… The start. It’s huge. The largest embassy in Madagascar is China’s. There’s the national flag! I saw it. The national flag! [This season the crew] [will explore four cities,] [Andasibe, the lemur base,] [Antananarivo, the art capital,] [Morondava, the baobab paradise,] [and Saint Marie Island, the whale wonderland.] [At the moment,] [heeding the call of the lemurs,] [they are heading to Andasibe.] [Traveling east from Antananarivo,] [the four-hour drive unfolds the beaty of nature] [like a “blind box”.] [They can birdwatch at Lake Mantasoa and] [play hide-and-seek with chameleons in Butterfly Valley,] [before finally arriving at the lemurs’ domain,] [Andasibe-Mantadia National Park.] [Where they’ll begin their adventure] [depends entirely on their curiosity and energy levels.] Alright, Weiquan, let’s go through the plans. Tonight we’re doing a night tour. A night tour. How long would that take by walk? About an hour’s walk. One hour? To see Madagascar’s smallest primates, lemurs, also known as mouse lemurs. I was planning to go, but we’ve been traveling nonstop for 20 hours straight, plus connection flights, the ladies must be exhausted. Let’s discuss the schedule. Okay. So, after checking in, there’s a night tour, about an hour’s walk, to see the unique mouse lemurs. Want to see photos first? Got any pictures? -Please…
-Yes. Let’s see the photos. Spoiler alert. You know what spoilers are? Impressive. Oh, like this! The smallest, right? So, would you like to go? If we go tonight, we could leave later tomorrow, right? No, we have to be early tomorrow. Tomorrow’s packed. What do you think? Those who want to go can go. What do you say? In that park at night, we’ll only see mouse lemurs, right? Main attraction is mouse lemurs. There are also tiny frogs, nocturnal frogs. Hopping around at night? Yes. Croaking away. More spoilers, here. More spoilers. Then no need to go now. Done watching. We’ve seen the photos. We strongly suggest to reach hotel around 7:30 p.m. After we get there… Everyone can rest… Freshen up, unpack, then order dinner. After eating, go straight to bed. That settles it then. We’ll skip the night tour tonight. Thanks! Alright? Sichun, is tomorrow okay? You think you can manage? In the morning? If in the morning… It’s okay. As long as I can go to bed early tonight. Alright, no night tour then. Okay. Big temperature difference between day and night Alright, let me share tomorrow’s schedule to everyone. Jun’s itinerary is quite professional. Yes. It reminds me… Of yourself? Or… Yes, that’s how I operate. Right? This is how I do things. Very meticulous work, Jun. Yaqi. Yes. Please check the rates of hotel Rova of Antananarivo. Okay. We should negotiate a discount. You got it. Weiquan, we aren’t cheap. When traveling, we’re normally generous. But the budget is tight. Please understand. Of course. But we’ll still tip properly. It’s alright. Won’t disappoint you. We will. That’s the right thing to do. How many bedrooms? Five? Okay. How much? How much? 800, zero? 800, zero? No way, that’s too cheap. 800 what? Dollars? 800, it’s… Euros. I thought she said… Okay. I got that. 800 euros. Yaqi? Yes, Sir. Should we have Weiquan check if we can have an extra bed? Said 800 euros a night. For a night. I wonder if that’s a bit over budget. That Rova hotel charges 800 euros? Yep. The booking was way too expensive. I was kind of overwhelmed at that time because I needed to settle us down and handle our itinerary in just a couple of hours. I was fidgeting, really. I kept googling during my flight. So we’re opting for the hotel in Rova of Antananarivo. I want to pin it down now as we have an 11-hour flight ahead. Anything could happen in between. I booked that hotel last-minute before we took off. We couldn’t afford to hesitate. Hello, Harry. I want to double check the price of the first hotel yesterday, I mean the one in Rova and has a good view. 800 euros a night? Already booked? Booked? Have you paid the deposit? Do you think you can get us a discount? Is that possible? 800 euros is much too pricey. I’m sorry I forgot to check the price yesterday. You would? Alright. Many thanks. About that hotel… I booked it straight. I didn’t check the price. But I’m… That’s a done deal. I’ll see if they’ll offer a discount. What’s the agreed price? Same. That’s what he said. 800 euros, then. For five rooms, you okay with that? Five rooms. Totally fine. No problem. Let’s be Queens and Kings for once. Doesn’t matter. Yeah, we’ve had a grueling day after all. Spoil ourselves the first night. Rova hotel is a must-go in all senses. Right. Which means… We’ll cut back on other fronts. Noted. Yeah. Or we could cut out a destination or two from our list. Alright. No big deal. I could feel this strong encouragement they gave me on my decision. I was so grateful. Is that the best hotel in Madagascar? It’s the most time-honored. This is the façade of it. Magnificent. Quite impressive, indeed. I’m sure it’s worth it. Laughter resonated throughout our journey to Andasibe. Except for this one person, chin up holding his belly. That was me, trying desperately not to throw up. I didn’t know I’d be this sick. I tried to pull myself together and get involved in discussing the travel plans or googling and stuff. But scrolling my phone in a moving car could literally kill me. Wanyi… He was so carsick he could barely sit up. A jolly, lively lad otherwise. Consider me a body in a moving vehicle. Just have some rest. Do you need a neck pillow? Had to refresh myself with this. Live with it. You can’t do anything about it. I could be the driver. Never the passenger. So it’s a natural instinct? I’m born to drive. Poor boy. Made for the steering wheel. Kinda pity you, man. This section of the road… Sort of bumpy, huh? Yes. I’m dizzy. Close your eyes. Keep the sickness at bay. Everyone, shut your eyelids and ease up. Are you all right? Wanyi is currently offline. Help him. You need some water? Don’t talk to him. Leave him alone. Yeah, I’ll zip it. Stay half asleep. Keep it in your mouth. What’s this? It’s refreshing. Is it dried fruit? Um… It’s dried apricot. Thank you, Ying. Ying, could you pass this to Wanyi? It’s frankincense oil. Wanyi, take a whiff. I’m using this one now. Try frankincense instead. Give it a go. Take a deep breath and chill. Twist it open, man. You need to uncap it. So I’ve been smelling the lid all the time. Apply some to your wrist. And then lean in. That’s smart. Yeah. It’s pure essential oil. Should be fine. Jun, have some if you like. I’m good. As sober as a judge. He seems fairly thrilled. I don’t think it’s 100% frankincense. Smells like mint. How? It’s a blend. A mix-up? I mixed up. Certainly. I took the mint one. You did. Wanyi, I’m afraid it’s mint that you’re sniffing at. That makes two of us. Try this one. Here. It’s frankincense. Remember to uncap. Rub it around the nape of your neck, on your nose, and above your upper lip, too. I’m done. Thanks, Ying. I put it all over my hands. Nowhere else. Yeah? Spread it over. Understood. Stomachs churning from the twists and turns, the crew wound their way up the mountain in what seemed an endless journey. Their destination is the nation’s famed animal paradise: Andasibe-Mantadia National Park. Dubbed as a biological sanctuary, it’s home to a distinctive range of fauna, from lemurs the “launchers”, to chameleons shifting and dropping their camouflage; from crocodiles the size of vessels, to boa-constrictors towering over trees. Much as there is to anticipate, the reality sends shivers down your spine. It’s still a long and dizzy haul away from being wonder-struck. To find a hotel at Saint Marie Island. Guys, let’s search some. We will search some as options. And sift through them. Then make a list for all to decide. Proud of you, Qin. You’re the best! No. I’m just the deputy of deputy secretary. Then who’s deputy secretary? You. Me? Since when did I… Alright, fine. How about we do a roll call? Who’s first? I’ll go first. In my group chat, I go by “Third Senior Ma”. And everybody just follows suit. I’m Fourth Senior Li I’m Fifth Senior Gong. You’re the fifth by age? Ying, we decided to call you Boss Senior Na. Boss Senior Na. Is that okay? Boss Senior Na. Wanyi, you’re Sixth Senior Zhang. The sixth by age. Must we be numbered by ages? Yes, Second Senior Chen. Can’t I pick a number I like? Yaqi alone get to be called Junior Sis. What happened to my “senior” title? Seventh Senior Zhang sounds just fine. The thing is none of you are senior in ages. Exactly. But it’s so much fun. It’s cute, isn’t it? What do you say, Senior Bosses Na and Chen? Senior Bosses. You mean us? Senior Bosses? Me and Ying? The rest of us would love to be Seniors. Why do I feel like being Junior Chen instead. Why not Juvenile Chen? Anyway, the younger, the better. Then we’ll make you two juniors, and the rest of us seniors. Fine by me. So the two juniors are actually senior in ages, and vice versa. Deal? Well, can’t complain. I love the idea of reversing. Then what’s our group name? Sixth Senior Zhang. Not The Playful 7? Playful as in play? Yes! That works. I like it! Ying being playful. I’ll rename the group. Forever young at heart. Change your nicknames pls. OK! After I get off, okay? Time for bed. [It’s 10:30 p.m. in Beijing.] [Bedtime.] [The crew’s been nonstop since Beijing.] [Twelve hours in the air.] [Two hours in Ethiopia.] [And five more in the sky.] [They’re running on empty.] [Even yawning’s low-power mode.] [But just as everyone’s shutting down,] [guide Jun gave them a boost.] Let’s sort out the money. We should split it… So everyone has some. Okay. Everyone should carry a little cash. That bag of cash of yours, a stack for each us? There’s 1,000, Ying. If we split up, say someone wants fresh coffee, is it pricey? Nope. Coffee while lost way? When lost, still craving coffee? Without getting lost, you can still have it anyway. Make it 100,000 Ariary. Yeah, 100,000 each. Alright, 100,000 it is. Five notes each. 100,000 each. Ok. Yes. [Once the money’s sorted,] [everyone went back to sleep.] [Only one stayed awake,] [the man holding up the roads of Madagascar,] [Gong Jun.] [Head down, making plans,] [head up, keeping watch.] Mountain road ahead. Oh no. Do we take the same route back? Yes. Same way. That’s right. Brutal. When? Tomorrow. [After a long watch,] [Jun got a good news.] [Someone’s awake.] [At last, he’s off duty.] Almost there, 20 minutes left. [But the bad news is…] Jun. [Back to work.] Is dinner included at the hotel? No, it’s not. But we can order food. I crave instant noodles. But I’ll join you all. Then instant noodles for all. Wish we had something to go with it… Name it. What do you mean? Sausage. I brought some. Really? No way! Ying! This is bliss. And pickles. You’re amazing. Do you have any siblings? A young sister. She studies at Jiangxi Normal University. Back then, I wanted her to take an exam in Beijing. cause she can sing Peking opera. Impressive. Her name’s Xu Jiali. Xu Jiali. I named her that. I know someone named Xu Jiaying. We’ve reached Andasibe. This is a village. Finally here! But it’s pitch dark outside. Can’t see a thing. It’s not easy getting here. We’ve been traveling for more than a day. Over 20 hours. So far away. We’re at the hotel. Here we are. Can we check the rooms first? OK. There are only three rooms. Can you three share? We can. You three together. Then Ying and Shu. Ok! Sounds good. Two juveniles. Two seniors. Two juniors! Yes, two juniors. Two juniors together. Yes, it is. Sorry. Let’s go. Let’s go. OK! Be careful. Okay. It’s so cozy. Birds’re chirping. It’s so fun. Tropical rainforest. Yes. Go, go. go! The three seniors head to their room. So pretty. Gorgeous. Living in the forest is amazing. Let’s check it out. Is this our room? Yep. Oh wow. So close. Just knock anytime. It’s right next door. Come visit. Come by anytime. Anytime. Check out our room. It’s a two-story room. Sichun, you’re a light sleeper, take this bed. We’ll be upstairs. OK! This one’s bigger. Take this one. I’ll take the smaller one. You shouldn’t have. You’re… It’s fine! No, really. I don’t need that much space anyway. I only use this much. I don’t move around much either. It’s decided. It works. Our luggage might have to stay outside. Yeah. This should be the bathroom. So primitive. Alright. Just a wall apart. It’s fine. Using the toilet. YOLO. It really is a tent hotel. Let’s just take out the essentials. Instant noodles, right? Did everyone bring some? We really are a noodle crew. Noodle Kings! Anything you want. You’re like a kiosk. When it’s hard to cook, I’ll eat the cup noodles. You have some, too. That’s plenty for us. Instant noodles. Okay. Hold it for now. Let’s eat these six packs. Take some pickles. One bag is enough for me. Really. One is enough. I still have some. I know, maybe for them. Then I’ll keep it. Let’s bring these. Ok. When will we eat? Have a snack, if you’re hungry. How much is the food here? No idea. I didn’t check the menu. I can’t leave it here. Gotta keep the money on me. They’ve got CCTV. No need to worry. The cameras are watching. In broad daylight. Who would dare? I’ll leave it here. This is… You’re overdoing it. Just a normal bag. Yes. You ready? We’re gonna go order food. I’m ready. Did you bring the money? Yep. Hey, you two. We got the noodles. We’re off to order food. Take the noodles with you. Will six packs be enough? Should be. It’s enough. We have it too. Thank you. It’s nothing. It’s super light. Hello sir, do you have menu? Yes. What would you like? Anything’s fine. Do they have any dietary restrictions? Let’s call and check. Let’s call. This looks good. We’ll start ordering if no one answered. The sausage. Oh my god. Gotta take it out quickly. We should eat it now than later. 4 3 No one answered. Two, one. I’m hanging up. Bye. It’s up to us. Bye. They don’t have dietary restrictions? Do you? I’m good with anything. It’s fine. As the tour guide, I need to arrange everything for everyone. I’m still a bit nervous about this. What if I mess up? They might be upset. Worried they might feel uncomfortable. So the pressure’s really getting to me. Go ahead and order. Okay. We’ve got instant noodles as backup, right? I can’t read French menus at all. Even the English menu’s confusing me. Hold on a second. I need to translate this one. Let me try. Got it translated. Check out the dishes. Hello, sir. We want this one. Is it enough? One? Yeah. No. No? We’ll order three fish. Five vegetables. Thanks. Five? Yeah, thank you. How about two more veggie dishes? Stir-fried ones. Yeah. Do you have any… Sichun wants extra veggies. Salad mix. We want this. It’s okay, right? It’s enough, right? Yes, it’s enough. Really enough? Really enough. Thank you. ‘cause we’re really hungry. That’s enough. It’s super close to our room. Come on, guys. Let me tell you what we ordered. Their specialty is barbecue. Will they grill it for us? They’ll bring it out and grill it here. And I ordered this fish. Three portions. Jun. One portion per person. Is this yours? Yep. You take it back? You take it for me. Jun’s got so many good qualities, but he loses stuff. Always losing things. We should get him… A leash or something? We got the veggies. So for the noodles, maybe… Should I ask them to cook it for us? But can we actually finish all this? Six packs should be manageable. Alright. Worried they might feel uncomfortable. What do you think? Feels like a bit too much. Too much? Can seven people finish six packs? Ask the two juniors. Here, juniors! Coming. How many packets for seven people? Just cook it all, and everyone can scoop what they want. Well, wait. Maybe reduce the amount. It’s fine. Gotta boil, huh? Yeah. Maybe I should check… I’ll go check. If they don’t… You can handle it, right? I got this. Give it a taste test. Okay. Do you have… Can we use that pot? Can we use this one? Yeah, thank you. Take your seats. How should we sit? Na Ying gets the head seat. Okay. You sit here then. Sure. We always get the end seats, don’t we? Let’s take these then. Face to face. Okay. Tonight feels so special. Our first meal. Feels like The very first supper. family reunion vibes. Any drink preferences? Water’s fine for me. Or broth. Noodle broth? Soda water or something. Let’s order some drinks. I’ll go ask. I’ll come with him. And give Yaqi a hand. Okay. Where do we cook? Today’s instant noodles need to be epic. Let me check. Noodle cooking hacks. Gourmet instant noodle recipe. Guys, should we try local juice? Anyone’s interested? I’ll have local juice. Me too. This tastes totally different. Not like what we’re used to. Is it good? What’s it like? It’s not sweet at all. You’ve got a cold, don’t you? I just remembered. She’s sick. And I drank from the same bottle. Sorry! And here I was being so generous It just hit me. letting you drink from it. Let me just take a tiny sip. Just a taste. I’ll pour you some. Pour some. No clean cups left. Don’t wanna waste a clean one. I already drank from it. I don’t mind. Do you mind me? Just wipe it. Wiping it feels like you do mind… Not like that. No… Not minding. Kicking myself I didn’t do it earlier. Since Sichun’s under the weather. Sorry. No worries, really. I got it. Really. No hard feelings. Strong. Right? That kick. Honestly, this feels kinda satisfying. Really? Are you okay? Okay. Add the noodles in two minutes. Then two minutes later, crack two eggs? Boil two minutes before adding, right? Can’t wait to taste this. Careful. He’s skewering the meat. Had no idea they skewer it on the spot. How long does that take? We’ve been traveling 26-27 hours. The ladies must be exhausted. Now’s the time to… Check the recipe. My head was spinning. But I told myself: do not spread anxiety. But I’m pretty steady emotionally. First course, finally. Guys. Harbin Red Sausage. Dig in, everyone. Share it around. Yeah. First time cooking instant noodles in a foreign country. Yeah. Our first meal is instant noodles. Smells amazing! Chefs. Wanna taste it now? Must be delicious. No doubt. Nah. Go on, try it. Check the seasoning. Tastes salty to me. Add water then. Okay. Don’t make them too soft. They’re done now. Okay. Perfect. Okay. Here. Smells incredible. Why does it smell so good? Hot? Is it hot? Nah. This smells heavenly. Thank you. Here, it smells so good. Put it down. Perfect. Instant noodles! Awesome. Try it! Help yourselves. Alright. Why are instant noodles so blissful? Kinda interesting. This smells amazing! If we wanna eat in style, we should eat quietly. But tonight, I think we should slurp our noodles. Wait, are these three packs? Yep, three packs. To be honest, this seems a bit light. We should cook more. Should’ve gone big. One pack each. Then there’s no point in having barbecue. Yeah, we wouldn’t have room for it. The barbecue’s taking a while. Yeah, the barbecue… Why’s it taking so long? Instant noodles cook much faster. [I’m worried the others might be upset.] [But] [I’m a calm person.] Could we have the grill first? Could they hurry a bit? ‘Cause… It’s ready now. Thank you. A bit sooner, please. Thank you! ‘Cause the ladies have been waiting for quite a while. I still want more noodles. No worries, if you’re still hungry after the barbecue, we can… We can make more noodles. The barbecue will be ready soon. I asked them to hurry up a bit. I got Weiquan to give them a nudge. Let’s have some more noodles. Have some more. Yeah, the barbecue’s not ready yet. The rain is hitting my face so hard! [Outdoor dining, pouring rain.] It’s raining…what should we… Can we move that umbrella over? We can’t move it. The base is really heavy. Let me take care of it. I’ll ask the staff. Wait a sec, it’ll be done soon. [I’m worried the others might be upset.] [But] [I’m a calm person.] There’s nowhere to put the holder. How are we supposed to set it up? [I’m a calm person,] [a calm person.] Let’s spread the tables out. Two umbrellas will be fine. Wait a sec. Take it slow. Perfect. All set. He can bring it over now. Let’s keep eating. Here comes the barbecue! Here it comes! The barbecue’s here! We have to cook on this small stove? So we have to cook it ourselves? Yeah. Ugh… This is… Eh… kind of tricky. We just wanted a quick meal, but it turned into a proper meal. [I’m worried the others might be upset.] [But I’m a calm person.] All they have besides barbecue is noodles. I thought we already had noodles. So we didn’t need theirs. I didn’t know the barbecue is made fresh. Let’s eat. Let’s get cooking. We’ve come all this way. Have some. We’ve come all this way! Come on. Let’s get cooking. Okay, it’s ready! Let’s get cooking, Wanyi. Start with this one. Veggies for you. No rush. Veggies for me. Mine can wait. Veggies can wait. Let’s start with the meat. [I kept talking the whole meal,] [just hoping everyone had a good time.] [And they] [kept things lively.] They are very thoughtful. Ying, you’ll get wet if you sit there. It’s fine, we’re under the umbrella. Don’t worry, we’re covered. It is fine. Want some chili powder? What are you holding?
[40 minutes ago] Chili powder. I put it on everything. It tastes really good. It is really tasty! Not too spicy. Perfect! That’s great. I want some! Add some here. This chili powder is the magic touch! We added the whole packet! Don’t stand there, you’ll get smoke! Step aside a little. Honestly, rain has its own romantic vibe. Sunny days are nice too. So, whatever the weather, just enjoy the moment as it is. Alright, I think it’s ready. Who wants to go first? Are you sure? Yeah, for real. It’s done. Try the fish! Come on, have some. Barbecue in the rain. Sure, it’s a bit messy and imperfect, but that’s what makes it special. This is so good! Tastes amazing! Chili powder’s the secret. This chili powder is awesome. It is not spicy. You can add this chili powder on pretty much anything. I’ve got some too. Same chili powder. You brought some as well? But mine isn’t in a bag. It’s in a box. I take this with me whenever I go abroad. The shrimp’s ready. Who wants some? Who wants some? Who wants it? I do! Shrimp with chili powder, here. You go first. Here, bro. I’ll just take one. I can’t eat too much. It’s coated in chili powder. Take some for yourself. I’ve got mine too. This is squid. Go ahead, have some. Outside the colorful little cabin, as gentle drizzle fall in this peaceful cozy moment, we all shake off the day’s fatigue. Together, we enjoy our first tasty meal abroad. Wait a sec. Don’t forget the secret. Now you’re the Big Senior Chef. He’s Junior. Oh yeah, Junior! Then Big Junior Chef! I think we’ve cooked enough. We can take a short break. It’s done. Okay. Take a break. [Madagascar Travel Expenses (Ariary)] The water’s either boiling or freezing. It’s crazy! The water’s either boiling hot or freezing cold. There’s no in-between. Be careful in the shower. Got it. I left my shampoo and hair mask for you. No, that’s okay. You can just pack them away, Tomorrow will be a hassle. I’ve got my own. I’ll just use soap. No need to pack it tomorrow. It might be a hassle. Go ahead, your turn for the shower. So the partition… is just a thin wall. It’s not even a real wall. If someone uses the bathroom inside, the smell spreads everywhere. So we should just pull this curtain apart. Sorry, bro. First night sharing a room, and we’re already this… exposed… How about stepping outside for a sec? I’ll sit by the door. Just take your time. Okay. This is truly a rare experience. With people we barely know, yet we’re bonding so fast It really takes effort from everyone. Honestly, I mean it. Yeah. We have 7 people. [7 persons,] [7 persons are good for our villa.] [600 euros per night.] Okay. [Anytime, you give me a call.] Thanks. [Bye.] I get really nervous making calls. You get nervous too? Then I’d never be the tour guide and make calls! It’s okay. I’ll have your back. Babe, Yeah? Can you… Oh… No. I’m talking to this bug. Why don’t you just fly away? It’s hilarious. You said… You said babe, and I just responded naturally. Want some of these velcro hair stickers? I’ve got plenty. You can stick it on your hair while taking a shower. So pretty! Looks great! Thanks! I’ve seen these before. So cute! Is this how you stick it on? Yeah. I feel totally ​​clueless. Just pull it off when you want to take it out. I’ve never seen this before! The best part about sharing a room is we can exchange so much stuff and share tips and tricks. Yeah. It gives you that dorm life vibe. Why isn’t it latched? I’m tidying up in here. We’ll get bugs. Okay. Come in. Come on in. Alright. Does the music you’re playing here make you feel more relaxed? Just trying to set the mood before bed. It can help me sleep. Open… your hands. You’re back, I’ll turn it off. See? Don’t… turn it… off. Let’s turn it off. Play… a bit… more. Just let it play. I’m actually feeling quite comfortable. It’s so ​​soothing. Seriously! Let it play. What’d you like to hear? Exactly this! [You knew Ying before,] [but weren’t close, right?] Not particularly close, no. But Ying is a very inclusive person. Whether it was years ago at friends’ gatherings, she was always very warm towards everyone. Even back then, when I might not have talked much or actively chatted with her. Perhaps… putting it nicely, I’m a bit introverted, or maybe a bit… quiet. Putting it not so nicely, people might think I got my own quirky streak or something like that. I think, socially, I deliberately kept some distance, afraid of overstepping. Honestly, it’s because I was afraid of overstepping. I feel like traveling together like this, colliding through our actions. That’s the fastest way to accelerate getting to know each other. I am who I am. Set out a whole spread. Well, Jun just texted​​ me: Friends, luggage must be in the lobby by 7:30 AM tomorrow. So we should have them pick up bags at our doors by 7:20. Hotel breakfast is available. Jun’s so considerate. Right. Sweet dream. Bye, good night. See you tomorrow. Sichun, we’re hitting the sack! Goodnight, girls​​. Dead tired. Cameramen, how do I ​​turn off these three lights​​? Should I switch them off? Hello? Can you switch them off? How to turn off the lights? I’m asking you! Seriously? No instructions? How to unplug it? Fine. I’ll yank the plug​​. Your lenses are all… all angled away now. But it won’t help. Those lights are still there. Can you tell me what to do? I found the switch. Right. ​​My bad for being clueless​. Everyone was very polite. Rushing to carry luggage or do things. Actually I feel, we still need more time to gel. Because sooner or later during these 20-some days, 27 days, we will definitely encounter hardships and some setbacks. Patience wears thin​​ when exhaustion hits. True. With weakened patience, each person’s temper easily flares up. Me too. We need smart strategies or some graceful solution. [It’s still pouring?] Yep. White noise lullaby​​ for us. [The ad is aired in this period of time] [The ad is aired in this period of time] [The ad is aired in this period of time] [The ad is aired in this period of time] ♪Our backpacks are already filled with sunshine♪ This song is so hard for me to sing. Seriously, I’ve never sung anything so peppy in my life. Same. My hands have to do this while singing. Yeah. ♪Our backpacks♪ ♪La la la♪ One more time… Here comes the theme song encore. Been hearing them chat for an hour already. They woke up so early. Whatever, I’m brushing my teeth. Can’t see a thing with this lighting. You’re backwards. You need to turn toward the light. Light’s here, not there! I’m facing away from the lens. Let me finish my eyebrows before facing cameras. Back to the lens. I’ll just stay like this. Good morning. Makka Pakka. Monitor room. Oh my! That’s incredible! What happened? The camera ​​tracked me instantly. Instantly! Freaked me out! Can yours move? Instantly moves! Crew’s up early. Incredible! Y’all ​​never sleep? [The rainforest’s] [waking race began before dawn,] [because the early bird catches the worm.] Girls! Here! You want boiled eggs or fried eggs? Boiled works for me! Same here! All want boiled eggs? You want fried or boiled? I’ll have fried eggs. I’ll tell him right now. [Ancient trees greedily hog the morning light] [like drunken giants,] [leaving only scraps of sun on the forest floor.] [Gotta apply sunscreen.] Did you put sunscreen on? This weather needs sunscreen? Bro, what if the sun comes out? [Rainforest plants clock in to produce oxygen.] [Lemurs start their morning chatter.] [The whole mountain forest hums like a 5 AM gym.] Honestly, staying just one night in a place like this feels too short. Not me. I’ve had enough. Too damp. Understood. Besides the lodging, once we’re outside our rooms, this scenery within the rainforest… we could truly soak in all day. Absolutely. Good morning. We look good today. Totally coordinated. Perfect match. I’ve got a yellow one too. Go, go, go! Time to head out! So outdoorsy! We’re grabbing breakfast first! ​​We’ll be right there. We’ll order for you. Morning, everyone! Hi, Weiquan! Thanks for the hustle, Weiquan. Boys, I took the liberty earlier. I asked them to boil ​​ten eggs​​. Fine by us. Perfect! Here’s our local porridge. Seriously craved this. Thank you! Tastes like century egg congee. Shu should love this. Instantly woke me up. Plenty for all. One bowl each. Right, one bowl each. Eat up, Ying. So good! Been simmering long. Absolutely delicious! Has that toasted rice crust flavor. This porridge is amazing! Right. Yeah, it was toasted rice boiled down, which helps remove dampness and good for digestion. Perfect for humid places. It can balance the moisture. Beats yesterday’s dinner. Incredible. Last night was all about the vibes. Vibes, yeah. Vibes were absolutely on point. Unreal. You’ll cry tears of joy. Hurry! Must try! Exceptionally good. So tasty. Perfectly fine. Girls, did you three turn off the cameras last night? Nope. Just us two did? I covered it. I gave it a hat. I covered them when we went to sleep. We just switched all the cameras off! All off. We got a serious warning this morning. Too obsessed with image! The director won’t set you up. Thanks. Hey, don’t be so stiff, you keep saying thanks and bowing 90 degrees, I can’t handle that. Just relax, be natural, okay? Dig in. First, we’ll hit the Lemur Island, then the national park. – Okay.
– So we need to leave now or… Not yet. At 8. It’s 7:40 now. Right, so 8 then. 8’s perfect. Best time. Okay. We’ve got 20 minutes. I’ll hit the restroom. Wanyi, where’s the key? Got it here. [Every time someone says “go,”] [it’s like a bathroom signal.] [Everyone scrambles.] [Even the grandest adventure] [can’t beat the stomach’s call.] Leave at 8, gotta hit the bathroom… [Ying, don’t force yourself.] [See, one’s still sitting there.] Resting up? I’m putting this on. Are you usually this quiet, just sitting there for ages? Do you ever get mad? Never? Then how do you vent? I don’t have any anger. No anger? Nothing worth it. You can just let everything go? It just blows over. Your temper’s way too good! So now what? [Can’t forget this is a study tour.] [To help Divas Hit the Road Crew learn it and] [ace it, the Magic Plants & Animals Guide] [is a must.] “With this travel log,” “the crew’s got 8 days and 7 nights” “to hunt down these wonders.” Look! How beautiful this spider web is! Even webs are pretty! Look at the banana leaves, they’re steaming up. Yeah. So unreal. What a surprise! “Open your mind” “and create some fun photos with them.” Look, a turtle! Where am I? Ancient little… little turtle, not so big. “The more you collect,” “the bigger chance for free baggage.” So we gotta snap pics, the more shots, the more cash? Sounds good. So just shoot them? Did you see what I posted in the group? Just spotted the island’s famous turtle. Quick, photo! Did you snap one? Snap one, Ying! Snap it! Where is it? Doesn’t that look like a chicken coop? The turtle? Looks like a coop, right? That’s it! This is the island’s… Island tortoise, yep. What species is it? I saw it, where’s the tortoise? Here. This book. This one. Radiated tortoise. Most gorgeous. One of the prettiest tortoises. Don’t block the star, guys. The star’s in the way. The star. Hard not to block the star. There it is. Let me move it a bit. Perfect! Can I hold it? Sure, go ahead! I don’t dare. Me neither! Here, I’ll hand it to you. Come. You go first. Three. Two. Good. Here we go! Alright. I wanna hold it! Here. Can I take the small one? Nope, I don’t dare. Me neither. I don’t wanna offend it. Looks amazing. Why does everyone have a perfect angle? Look. Quick. Who’s taking my pic? Again. One more shot. Can someone take my pic? I’m a bit nervous! Ready? One, two, three, go! Looking good. Time to move, everybody. Gotta head out. Don’t wanna miss the lemurs. [The ad is aired in this period of time] Let’s go! We’re off!

It’s too heavy. It’s alright. Just put anything you need to bring in my bag. I don’t know what I’ll need. I’ll just keep the backpack. Okay. But it’s a two-hour outing. I’ve got my water bottle in here. Just put the bottle in mine. I’ll carry it for you. We can help you carry any essentials. Yeah. Anything else? Nope. Then put it back. That’s it? Just a water bottle, and you brought such a big bag? It gives me peace of mind. I’ve got everything. I have a mosquito spray. Okay. Yeah, a mosquito spray. Don’t worry. Are we taking these boats? Yes. Canoes. Let’s have a try. When you’re in, don’t move around too much. They’re small and can… Tip over. Right. When you take photos, don’t turn your whole body. Like this. It’ll upset the balance. Exactly. Don’t do that, otherwise… It could flip. That’s right. I’ll steer, you take photos. Okay. There are crew members. So I just give directions? You don’t need to direct. No need for that, either. Okay, this way please. Two people per boat, and the last one rides with me. Alright. Who’s with me? Me or Sichun, your choice. Either’s fine. Here. Wanna get on? I want you. Come on. Let’s get on. The last one rides with you, right? I… So what now? You go with Weiquan. I’ll go with Wanyi. Let’s go. Okay. Let’s share a boat. Okay. Let’s go. You sit in the front. Okay. If I sit in the front, I’ll block your view. Shu, not bad, huh? It’s fine. Great. We’ll take the lead. We’ll go first. Okay, Weiquan, you guide the group. You two head out first. Wanyi, your boat goes second. Okay, Ying. We’re the second. We’re the third. Careful! Don’t move! Just sit still. Don’t move. Be careful. Looks like the canoes can tip easily. Exactly. ♪Goodbye, my friends♪ ♪Tonight I’ll sail away♪ A new journey is about to start. Yeah, right. Another adventure. Exactly. Let’s go. ♪Our bags are packed with sunshine♪ ♪Heading up the hill to bathe in moonlight♪ Moonlight. Careful with your phones. Right. How did my trip turn out so magical, almost like a dream? So nice. Riding this small boat. So adorable. You look great. We… I can snap shots of you. We can take pictures of each other. Wave at me! Let’s wave. Want me to take photos of you? Sure. Okay. Stay still. Pretty. Alright. One, two, three. The sun’s behind you. You look amazing. This looks straight out of a movie. Stunning. Yes. Stunning. So beautiful. So relaxing. Yeah, the view’s great. And the air is fresh. Yes. It’s not hot today. Right. Perfect. Wait, just to be sure, there are no crocodiles here, right? I don’t think so. Probably not. No crocs? Good. [Welcome to Lemur Island,] [a renowned private sanctuary in the eco-resort.] [Rest assured.] [There are no fierce crocodiles here,] [only five species of agile, sharp-eyed lemurs.] [As true residents here,] [they won’t chat with you,] [but they will lock eyes] [with you.[ [Now the crew members] [are sitting in canoes with no room to move.] [The only thing they can do] [is to look around for lemurs.] [If you can] [catch one in a photo,] [that’s pure fortune.] We’ll pass by crowned sifakas on the way. Okay. Should we keep our voices down? Yeah, so they won’t get scared off. Keep it down. Don’t spook lemurs. Stay quiet. Here they are. Right there on the bank. Look. They’re here. Where? What’s here? Crowned sifakas. Sifakas. Crowned sifakas. Two lemurs. So adorable. It’s turning its head. So cute. How adorable. Oh, gosh. Super cute. They’re so cute. Hey there, I see you turning your head. You’ve got attitude. It’s hopping away. So cool. Oh my god. How cute. Too cute. My heart just melted. Another one. A brown lemur is here. Will they fight? No. It’s alone. So it wouldn’t dare. One against five, it won’t stand a chance. Are they kissing? Kissing. Those two are playing. Look. So full of joy. Gosh, they’re leaping from tree to tree. It tugged the other one’s tail. Tugging the tail. I bet that’s a big nope, so look, it’s pissed. That’s amazing. The two are full of energy. Like characters from a cartoon. Three on the same branch. But when you get close and interact with them, their cuteness just melts you. That’s cute. So free. What in this world haven’t they seen? It’s beautiful. Like a dance duet. Hey. Look here. Look at the camera. Look here! Look at the camera! Call Na Ying, Na Ying and Chen Shu. Chen Shu. Na Ying! Chen Shu! Group photo. Do they have nests at night? They just sleep in nature. On treetops, even in rain. Nope. Yeah. No nest. Crowned sifakas live 40 years. 40 years. About 40 years. Did they hear a signal? That’s a panda lemur call. We’ll go find it on that island. Let’s go. Come on. Time to go. Goodbye. Now let’s find this baby. Looking for King Julien. Let’s find the ring-tailed lemur. Okay. Feels like we’re in a cartoon. Or inside a movie. Honestly, I kind of feel hard to come here alone. True. Better with friends. Yeah. To come here. Remember that movie Madagascar, right? I’ve only seen this in movies. How long could you last here? If it’s like our hotel here? I could stay long. As long as there’s a kiosk. Yeah. I could stay forever. Me too. Same here. A month would do for me. Bask in the sun daily. Climb the hills. BBQ at night. And sleep. Ahead is the lemurs’ home. Here come the ring-tailed lemurs! Where? There! That’s the one in Yaqi’s bag! Yaqi, your bag has this lemur! This is too cute! So tiny! I’m losing it. Shh, quiet down. It’s timid. Too cute! So adorable! That’s King Julien! Adorable! Sounds so cute! That sound is so baby-like. It goes like this… Are you coming over? It thinks that’s a friend! Put it down. I’m scared! It’s fine. I wanna pet it. Its tail is gorgeous. It’s munching on something. Here it comes! That’s a family. Maybe. A family of three. Quick, sunbathing time. You really know how to enjoy! Sunbath. Such a life! All lemurs love the sun. So polite! Look at its hands. How long do they live? 33 to 35 years. Sichun! Poop! Who pooped here? A bird. It dropped from the tree. Lucky you! So lucky. You got pooped on too? Yeah. Me too! That’s lucky! Luckier that I have wipes. Not a bit poop stuck. Wanyi, give me one piece. I got pooped on too! If we bring it to Chaoyang Park, would it survive? Not sure. There’s a lake. Water there too. They need humidity. Yeah, but Chaoyang Park is in Beijing. Beijing is too dry. So cute! Wanna take it to Chaoyang Park! Bye, King Julien! Madagascar’s also called Feluma. And this one’s called Maki. Feluma Maki. Maki. It doesn’t wanna part with us. Why’s that? See? It’s back again. Look, a little one. Up there, see? It’s here to see us off. Bye-bye! You’re sending us off? So polite! Say goodbye to us. Bye-bye. So polite! Look, it’s really sending us off. Goodbye! Okay, let’s find panda lemurs. Panda lemurs? Is this park state-owned? Or private? It’s privately owned. Private. Private park. But the next one we’ll visit is a national one. Next is Mantadia. Mantadia. National Park. In Mantadia, you can see the Indri lemur. I saw it! A panda lemur! We’re just passing by here. Got it. Later we’ll go there for panda lemurs. Hurry, friends! Quick photos here. We didn’t go closer. Will they feel let down? Came for nothing. They even put on makeup! So they’re not panda lemurs? It’s for Chinese tourists to feel familiar. Like being back in Sichuan. Can I try this one? Sure. Okay, like this? Turn left, good. You’re trying! Left. That’s fine. Then on the right. Then on the right. Okay. Yaqi, you’re good at this! Then left. Okay. Right. Right? Okay. Yaqi, it should be right. Don’t worry. Almost. Yeah, right turn. Yaqi! Almost. Yaqi! We’re about to crash! [The ad is aired in this period of time] [DIVAS HIT THE ROAD · HEARTS UNITED] [The ad is aired in this period of time] [How to create an unforgettable trip?] Madagascar is truly a magical place. Look at those acrobatics! [Besides curiosity…] So funny! It moves so slowly. It likes you. Pulling hair. [You also need to learn.] Just get things done! Become a farmer! [And of course, a strong body to endure!] Chen Shu, want a bite? My body’s already shutting down. It takes a huge toll on stamina. Do you need to rest? No. I feel a strong sense of inferiority. Being the tour guide on this show is really tough. [When will the new guide realize] [that beyond planning,] [what’s harder is to handle pressure?] Sichun, she’s asleep. So tired. Being in this situation, surrounded by sisters… Everything below is mud. I have to take care of everyone. I feel anxious, confused. I can’t, I’m scared. No way. My stuff! Oh no, I messed up. I feel like “a sinner through the ages”. Too late. Shall we skip one spot then? Skip it! I’m so anxious, afraid I’ll mess it up. Watch out! Unimaginable. I’m doomed. The exciting journey continues next week! [The ad is aired in this period of time] [The ad is aired in this period of time] [Bonus Clips] Leehom, we’re all singing your song! I almost cried! You went all the way to Madagascar! So happy to see you! You guys sing really well. It’s so lively. Leehom, today we are in Madagascar. We filmed Divas Hit the Road. They’re all like our younger siblings. And everyone just sang this song together. We all love it, you know? It truly transcends age. It’s just beautiful. That’s why I was moved. We also saw so many animals in cartoon movies we watched years ago. Like crowned lemurs, panda lemurs, and more. So wonderful!
