PREVIOUSLY
I'm totally done with it. I'm already fed up.
There go my heels.
-Wow. -They're big.
They're quite intimidating.
I don't know what's going on here.
No!
Hanging from jeans?
Disgusting.
Slid down like that.
You're cheeky. Don't do it.
I never made any agreements.
Yes, you did.
-Dude. -"Dude"?
You're the only one who looks like a dude.
Now I understand why you're all influencers.
-What the fuck? -Damn it.
She really gets on my nerves.
I want to go home. I'm really in pain. I don't want to cry.
I really want to go home.
Come here.
Cassidy? You wanted to go home.
Yeah, I still do.
Then I would suggest that you go home.
So then you're screwed no matter what. I'll be thinking of you.
HEELS IN THE HAY UPSET INFLUENCERS - SEASON 2
Cassidy takes a taxi from Sluis home.
That means one competitor less.
But does someone else have to leave today?
They'll find out very soon.
Cassidy's voluntary exit has no impact on today.
You're still going to vote.
And today, another person will go straight home as well.
One of you five will sleep in his own bed tonight.
Six of you are wearing peasant handkerchiefs.
You cannot be voted for.
Yeah, right. Hey.
You are safe.
You will cast your vote one at a time.
The two with the most votes are nominated.
And their fate lies in the hands of the well-known village council.
-Is that understood? -Yes.
Let's vote.
Bram.
Elias.
It's a dog-eat-dog world.
Boom.
Thank you.
-You're welcome. -Deborah.
Daniëlle.
Nothing personal.
You don't like me, and I'm a girl's girl.
In my jar.
The last one.
-Yordi. -Yes.
Yordi.
Okay.
The votes have been counted.
And we know the two names.
The first person who has to pack their bags…
is you, Debby.
And the other one…
is you, Daniëlle.
Okay.
You can go pack your bags.
I will consult the village council.
I'll see you back here shortly.
Well, look at that. The village council.
Floris and Femke, you've had the chance to know them longer.
Overall, are you satisfied?
-It can always be better. -Yes.
There's no exuberant satisfaction.
But they did try to do their best.
Yes. What stood out to you today?
-Mostly a lot of screaming and yelling. -Yes.
A bit more noise than we would make.
-Screaming? -Screaming is the right word.
I'm going to show them to you.
The first lady who received the most votes is Debby.
She does try her best, but she's very quiet.
She did remain for a long time. I thought that was impressive.
-Yes. -And the other lady is Daniëlle Balk.
Yes, I wouldn't have thought that right away.
The village council seems surprised by the result of the vote.
That makes their choice harder.
They still have to make a decision
about who gets a second chance in the Zeeland countryside,
and who gets a one-way ticket to the big city?
Welcome back, ladies.
The village council has decided your fate.
It was really nerve-racking.
But after much deliberation it has been decided…
that you're going home, Debby.
No.
-Sadly. -Okay.
The adventure ends here for you.
You can return to Belgium immediately.
Okay.
What do you feel?
I don't really understand, but okay.
The people here have decided, and the council has decided.
So I must have done something wrong.
But, to be honest, I don't really know what.
I haven't had any fights or problems with anyone, but…
I don't know, yeah.
Yes, it's a bit weird, but okay.
Girls came up to me and said that Debby would vote for me too.
So yes.
They may have been a bit fake toward me.
I thought I had a nice bond with everyone. Apparently that's not the case.
Maybe half of them voted for me. Or more than half. I don't know.
You would have liked to continue longer?
Yes, definitely. Because I was really doing my best.
And really worked hard. So…
I just think it's a bit strange and very disappointing to be voted out first.
But, okay, it is what it is. So…
Dear Debby, thank you.
You can go.
Okay. Thank you. Bye-bye.
-Bye-bye. -Bye.
Debby G.
-Bye, Debby G. -Bye-bye.
I was quite shocked, being the first to go home.
I'm not very good at accepting defeat, so I'm not happy about it.
But I'm going to enjoy the sun. Back to Dubai.
Guys, I also have a message for you.
Yes.
Robbert.
You guys can start packing your bags too.
-No. -Are we leaving?
-We're going to a new place tomorrow. -Gee.
You wonder why our influencers are cheering so loudly.
As if they think we're going to a luxury resort next.
Okay, they can get out of the ostrich shit,
but if they have to report at the crack of dawn at the harbor of Yerseke in Zeeland,
their laughter quickly fades away.
This smells like the beach.
I'm from The Hague myself, so I recognize Scheveningen.
I can already picture the Kurhaus.
We're turning the corner, and there's a stench in the air.
From those crayfish.
-Gross. -From those tiny shrimp.
Such tiny dicks.
-People, what the fuck? -Look at those people.
Look at those people with the little hats.
-Jeez. -You like that, huh?
He looked a bit like the Mussel Man.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
Good morning, Elias.
How did you sleep?
-Very badly. -Very badly.
-But warm. -Warm?
We slept close to each other. That was really cozy.
Yeah? And who were you lying between?
Between Yordi and Deborah.
It's just cozy between Elias and me.
But, okay. It's just cuddling or something.
Yeah, I find it cozy like this.
Welcome to Yerseke.
Yerseke?
-Yerseke. -Where?
-Yerseke. -Yerseke.
-Never heard of it.
Yerseke. Oh, it's a city? Never heard of it.
And Yerseke has been known for its fishing industry for centuries.
But also for their delicious Dutch mussels and oysters.
You've probably already seen them in beautiful, traditional Zeeland costumes.
We're going to do a small taste test.
Wow.
I don't like eating in the morning. Especially not fish.
Good morning, sir.
-Good morning. -What kind of delicacies are those?
I don't eat oysters. I don't eat them. They are salty.
It also smells like sour pussy.
Ma'am, should this be chewed or can it be eaten in one bite?
-More? -How do you do this?
I'm new in Yerseke. They're not used to me.
So I can't come here and be like, "Ew, what is that?"
-You have to clean that. -I have to clean that?
That's not the purpose.
Just chew and think, "Do it for the money."
I've really only been awake for ten minutes.
And this isn't very nice. No.
I couldn't eat that. I tried a shrimp.
I took a bite and thought, "I shouldn't eat this now. I'm going to throw up."
Today's farmers are the farmers of the sea.
-Good morning. -Hello.
I've been told that you guys work hard at sea.
There's hard work being done at sea.
Who is that handsome teddy bear over there?
So tall, with a big chest.
And a super nice smile.
Gentlemen, what's the plan? What are they going to do?
They're coming with me out to sea.
Then we're going to the oyster tables.
How nice.
There we will carry out different tasks.
The other group is coming with me. They're going to the factory.
-We're going to pack and process oysters. -Nice.
Oh, my g***. I honestly didn't feel like it.
Team Boat is going to harvest oysters.
You do that on a boat, of course.
-DE-13? -No, the one next to it.
Oh, the small one.
If I avoid anything, it's being on a boat.
During Pride in Amsterdam, I take a pill for seasickness.
I can't handle that.
-Hello. -Welcome.
Here is the ship. You'll get to go out to sea on it soon.
When I heard I could go on the ship, I thought, "Oh, great. Thank you."
Should I put your coat inside? Or will you wear it? That's fine.
-Won't it start smelling like fish? -Fish?
We're fishing for oysters, so that's not possible.
An oyster is a fish, right?
It smells like a girl who hasn't washed herself for two weeks
and has slept with three different men.
That's the smell.
One of the men handing out the pay slips today is Willem.
His approach to life is completely opposite to that of our influencers.
They'll notice that.
In our company people work hard.
Eighteen to twenty hours a day is normal for us.
WILLEM OYSTER FARMER
That goes on all week as well.
All those mussels and oysters are processed in the factories in Yerseke.
In one of them, Bastiaan holds the reins.
He already has little confidence in this.
What I think of when it comes to an influencer is, indeed, long nails.
A lot for show.
BASTIAAN OYSTER FARMER
A lot for the camera. And earn easy money.
I'm curious to see how the influencers are going to behave with us,
and how they hold up.
Because we'll put them to work.
The team sailing with Willem will harvest oysters on the open sea.
OYSTERBOAT - CLEAN BASKET
The team onshore will clean oyster baskets.
Both tasks can bring in €150 per person.
But only if they work in true Zeeland style.
In Team Boat, on the way to the oyster bed,
they're already having a profound conversation about the Oosterschelde.
It's open sea. There are sharks swimming here.
-No way. -Yes. Definitely.
-No way. -Yes.
-What's this sea called, then? -Atlantic Ocean.
No.
It's not an ocean. I'm scared now.
What's the difference between a sea and an ocean?
I think the sea is more near the coast, and the ocean is more…
You don't have to ask me which sea we're sailing on. I don't know.
Step on the gas, mate!
I almost got blown out of my shirt. Before we reached the sea pasture.
YORDI
Shanta was doing very badly. Seasickness.
Yes, scary. I don't know what it was, but she couldn't handle it.
Oh, what a…
You have to keep your eyes on the horizon if you get seasick.
-What's the horizon? -Oh, my g***.
Yeah, horizon. That's… You have vertical and horizontal.
Yeah, and vertical is like this. Horizontal is like this.
So the horizon must be the line that goes like this.
I couldn't see the horizon since I wasn't wearing glasses or lenses.
I really need to pee.
Oh, it's not working.
Hello! I'm peeing on my own pants!
He has a deviation to the right.
He's peeing upwind on his pants.
What were you thinking?
Don't look at my shrimp.
Ew. That was my own pee.
After this pee break, it's time for things that really matter.
-What's with Elias and Deborah? -They are exes.
-Really? -Yes.
Almost nobody knows that. They went on serious dates.
-Serious dates? -Yes. Very serious.
-He fucked Cassidy on day one. -Kissed in the cocktail bar.
Kissed in the bar. Belly shots.
-Belly shots! -And his ex is here.
Then I think Deborah's very strong. She hasn't shown that she--
Deborah doesn't like him at all now.
-Well… -Well…
-Tonight there are also… -No.
Nothing has happened yet as far as I know.
Things are coming, I think.
Deborah will definitely get screwed by Elias.
Just a matter of time.
We'll see if Elias feels like it…
TEAM ASHORE
…after a few hours of cleaning oyster baskets.
-Amigo. -Here we are.
Good morning.
I'll explain a few things to you.
You will get five baskets.
They are all dirty.
What's the point? That they get cleaned.
You have to have a clean basket in about 12 minutes.
Clean baskets go into the cage.
You have your own container.
-Understood? -Yes.
This is way tougher than those ostriches.
This really is my dream job.
My nails are completely fucked.
My hands are all scratched up.
It has been in the sea for 200 years. Look how encrusted that is.
Someone stole my brush.
Oh, here. It's on the floor. Just kidding.
Cleaning oyster cages. By hand. With a little brush.
And a bucket of soapy water.
You should speed it up a little.
-It's completely encrusted. -Yes.
I think it's hell. Hell on earth.
Look. This is really clean, right?
-That flap is really clean, yes. -Okay.
-Remember, you have to do five. -Yes, got it.
Fuck!
They're plaster saints around here.
They don't swear and are calm with each other.
If I hurt myself, then I might say g***.
TEAM BOAT
Well, guys, we've arrived at the tables.
Yordi and Shanta stay on the boat.
-You're going to hand out these baskets. -Okay.
-The rest goes into the water. -OMG.
We'll hang the baskets back.
-I think I have a leak. -You're kidding.
Oh, dear.
It's sucking my feet in.
Luckily, I'm starting on the boat. Way too deep for me.
Otherwise only my cap would have surfaced.
That was of no use to us. So Shanta and I stayed on board.
-If you hold it like that… -Yes.
…then you put it on that bar and you click it in place. Like this.
-I'll show you how it's done. -Yes.
One, two.
And it's secured.
Two here. And two on the other side.
Let go.
-Watch it. Don't splash so much. -Sorry.
-My hair. -Yes.
Just keep working. You shouldn't complain.
Come on, it's just water.
My clothes are completely soaked.
Yordi and Shanta were throwing those things. Water came here too.
I should have gone into the water in my swimsuit.
Keep working, guys.
-Shanta! -Sorry.
I'll push you in.
-There was one lying on the bottom there. -I've got it already.
-What the fuck? -A jellyfish.
I can't handle it. I'm afraid to do that.
It looked like a huge 120-liter trash bag next to me.
But it was a huge jellyfish.
You're not afraid of a jellyfish, right?
Don't do it!
"Oh, farmer, there's a jellyfish."
-Can you hold it? -You can hold it.
I think he's a kind man, but leave me alone for now.
Working ashore is no picnic either.
Five filthy oyster baskets per person is too much to ask of our influencers.
What a fucking shitty job is that?
That people concern themselves with this?
Those people should buy a big dishwasher,
stuff those things in there and let the dishwasher do its thing.
This is a hopeless task.
Okay, is mine clean enough?
Yes, yours is clean enough. You can use the pressure washer.
Good job, Deb! Again.
-That's my wife. -Is that your wife?
-Yes. -Then I'd be ashamed.
I would want to be faster than my wife.
She's the boss.
You need to change that. Come on.
Nice when she hoses it down like that.
I don't want to know that! She's my friend.
We're going to test it tonight.
What have I gotten myself into? Water workout?
So the time has come. The water has drained.
And Yordi can take action.
-Oh, it's creating a vacuum. -Yeah, your balls.
Get in the water and loosen the baskets.
Then throw the full ones on board.
These are heavy, man.
Honestly, it's not easy. I don't have the height or the strength.
It did not go smoothly at all.
This is not normal.
-This one is heavy. -Just keep working.
There's still a whole row.
Lifting those things constantly. And you have to be fast.
Or the whole boat fills up with baskets.
You have to set them upright and stack them neatly.
Otherwise they get angry. We don't want that.
Come on.
-Normally we're much faster. -Yordi is still there.
It really felt like dying.
It wasn't funny anymore. I did think about my life twice.
If I go under, I'll be rid of the hassle.
Look, I'm bleeding.
Come on.
We always have to wait for her.
It annoys me so much.
Is it clean enough?
-Yes, this one is clean. -Great.
Come on. Time is running out.
You want to earn €150, right? Go for it.
Imagine you have to do this every day. This isn't normal. Wow.
But I do like oysters. That much is true.
Every day you're here, you get crazier and crazier.
You can use the pressure washer.
-They're sharp. -Yes, they're definitely sharp.
That's why you're wearing gloves.
I can feel it. Look, it's going through.
Scratches here. I'm covered. It hurts.
-No one said it would be easy. -That's true.
I'll be really happy when that time is over.
I couldn't go on. Broken.
Here.
I am broken.
This could be a bit better.
The lids could be better.
-Yes. -Look. That is good.
Then I looked right and left,
and Deborah and Plamedi also asked, "Is this good?"
I saw chunks this big on them.
He said to them, "All right. Go rinse it off."
He said to me, "There's still some left."
This can be done better on the other side.
-Oh, yes. -You see that too.
-Oh, I forgot that side. -We forgot one side.
Skipper Christiaan has put the team in the water.
If they thought the previous job was tough…
These tables become completely full with oysters.
Wild oysters. So what do we do to get them off?
You see? Then everything falls off.
We can scrape off the encrusted shells from those racks.
You're not hitting hard enough. Come on.
Just smack. Wham. Right in the face.
A bit of power, guys. Come on.
-Just keep going. -That was really brutal.
Keep hitting, otherwise nothing will happen.
It has to become clean.
Two!
We have to do the whole row, so keep up the pace.
It must be cleaner, Yordi.
My spirits are sinking this way.
Yordi, faster. Shanta too. Come on.
What is this, man?
-I don't think it's worth the money. -Come on, Yordi.
Willem thinks it has to be done faster and better.
I don't agree.
But in the end, he decides my paycheck,
so I have to listen like a dog.
Oh, no. Water's getting into my pants.
In mine too. My feet are wet.
Oh, no.
I have a leak in my suit.
I was like the Titanic is sinking. That was literally what I was.
You won't drown. You just get wet.
I have no clothes left. Everything is dirty.
Daniëlle is really getting on my last nerve.
My clothes are soaking wet.
Your clothes are wet? I'm waist-deep in water.
Oh, I can't take it anymore.
For team spirit, we don't need to be out at sea today.
But ashore, it's every person for themselves too.
-Bas, I've got five in. -You've got five in. Nice.
Well done. Really happy with your help.
You've all worked hard.
In the end, one person is the first one with five clean baskets.
-The rest can get their baskets ready. -But you said six.
-You've got six? -Not within the time.
Within the time, we have five.
Yes, Plamedi had them "ready" first.
I had six ready.
Half an hour later. All right, boy.
-I think you're tired. -Yeah.
I think we've arranged a place for you to sleep.
-Yes? -You still have some work to do there.
You can go that way, to the containers.
That's your sleeping area.
-Okay, thank you. -Thank you.
-Good luck. -Containers?
Do we have to clean all of this? I'm done with this.
This man made us walk 2 meters, to lie down in dirty, smelling containers.
What the fuck is this, mate?
The container opens and well…
We'll sleep with the door open, man.
We'll sleep with the door open.
It stinks!
Abnormal.
I think it's a bit inhumane.
It stinks in there.
Abnormal.
I think this is intense.
"Elias, you're a man. You're gagging." That's what I thought.
On the boat, they have no idea of the nightmare that awaits them.
They just want to get home.
Can someone help me on board?
Well, we weren't able to do everything we wanted to do.
But we're heading back to Yerseke now.
We're going to deliver the oysters.
An experience I'll never forget. Thank you.
-Did you enjoy it? -Unbelievably.
I enjoyed it.
What are you lying for now?
-I'm still savoring it in my wet suit. -You were complaining.
Otherwise top show.
You deserve an Oscar, Yordi.
Our Zeeland go-getters aren't falling for this bit of amateur theatrics.
They're from the city.
They're obviously exhausted.
-Harléya really did her best. -She was quite energetic.
-She really did her best. -Absolutely.
Yordi wasn't so fast.
-He was also looking for chances to rest. -Absolutely.
Oh, no.
Are we sleeping here?
-Please no. -Hello?
-Hi. -Oh, that's so bad.
-You don't want to believe this, mate. -No.
-We're sleeping in a container. -Welcome to your new sleeping spot.
Part two.
What the rotten eggs is this?
Why does it smell so bad here?
We're not sleeping here. Come on. No, man.
So dirty. The filthiest of the filthy. That filthy.
Mate. Grab a handle.
The pungent smell of oysters and mussels is unbearable.
Yet Bram actually feels sick because of something else.
Listen. Daniëlle…
Daniëlle hasn't done anything today.
She just goes, "Tired, tired."
We got hurt. She got hurt once.
"Oh, no. First aid, medic. This and that."
Look, I'm bleeding.
After that, at some point, she stood like this,
"Oh, I can't take it anymore."
This healthy feedback is clearly not meant for Daniëlle herself.
How did you do?
I'm tired now. It's all quite exhausting.
Moving up and down in the sea the whole time and hitting with a hammer.
I didn't know an oyster was so much work.
PAY SLIPS
Our Zeeland oyster farmers, of course, knew that already.
Time to see how they've evaluated the group. Because it's payday.
Well, exciting to see what we've earned.
-We worked our butts off. -We really worked hard.
Such thick beads of sweat. I heard my name a lot during the task.
So I'm not expecting the full amount.
-I have cuts on my fingers. -Me too.
If I earn less than €150 today, I'm going to have a word with the farmer.
Oh, yes! Willem, thank you!
I was happy with that €150. No one can do anything to me.
Come on!
What a motherfucker.
Bassie, boy.
Dirty fishmonger.
Well, of the €150, only €100 was left.
Really just another sad move from a fisherman.
€150.
I had expected to get €150.
I was happy with €125. That's still a lot.
-Period. -Neat.
LUCA €125
-What do you have? -Nice, Shanta.
For the work I did there, I should have gotten at least €400.
Oh, €150.
In total, we end up with €1,250!
Not a bad score.
Certainly not for Harléya, Plamedi, and Bram, who get the full amount.
Unfortunately, the rest left a lot of money spilled.
There's now €3,145 in the prize pot.
For Bram, this is the perfect moment to draw attention to his maximum score.
But is that really a tactical move?
Are we happy with the cash, ladies and gentlemen?
Shouldn't we start thinking about who contributed the most to the pot?
-No. -Already?
I don't know yet who I'm going to vote for.
I'm not focused on who contributes the most or the least money.
We worked three times.
You can still have an opinion about how people work in a group, right?
And my question now is, do you have an opinion on that?
-Do I have an opinion? -Yes.
There are a few people who…
Well, they don't annoy me. But I do think…
Today…
Why do I always have to say it? Okay.
Today I had a hard time with you, Daan.
It's come up in the group before that you can be an energy-draining presence.
A lot of moaning and groaning and…
I notice that you often make a remark to me.
I brought that up with you recently.
It's no surprise that you say that.
There's always some kind of aura around you that we…
I'm going to say "we" now too.
We notice that you draw a lot of attention and cost energy.
And I've really been ignoring it for days.
I definitely agree with Bram.
Someone can be selfish in the group. Someone can be arrogant.
But sucking energy really costs a lot of our energy too.
I think you're exaggerating with the "you all" and "days."
That's not true, I hear.
I'm telling you that what I'm saying to you now comes from me.
Today I talked with Shanta and Harléya about this day.
They agreed with me about today.
Am I the type to say "Oh, I'm thirsty. Can we sit for a moment?"
Yes, that's definitely me. I understand that might be draining.
Don't push it, because he's draining me.
Hard.
-We have a letter! -How I experienced it--
Okay, wait. We'll talk later. Come on.
Let go. I also have a headache. I don't feel like it anymore.
Let me live, you know?
"Dear influencers, your first day among the shellfish is over."
"Get ready for dinner with a little traditional twist."
-"See you soon." -Is there food? Dinner.
-Tasting? -No.
-Probably a local delicacy. -"A little traditional twist"?
Zeeland has a rich history. Especially when it comes to fishing.
Today, more will be at stake than just the shellfish on the table.
We arrive and I see Robbert standing and there is a man in a white suit.
I have the thought that this must be a chef.
-Welcome. -Hello.
On the menu today,
opening delicious Zeeland oysters yourself.
Is that why I put on this outfit? To cook?
Next to me is Harvey.
Harvey is in the top five when it comes to opening oysters.
Are there competitions and things for that?
A Dutch championship and world championships.
We are going to shuck oysters.
You will first get instructions.
After that, we will see how well you can do it.
-What can we win? -Good question, Shanta.
Today, we are playing for the…
golden mussel.
Golden mussel?
That must be something about unanimity… What's it called?
What does that mean?
-I like it. -Yes, Elias. The golden mussel.
Unanimity? What is it called again?
-What to do with a golden mussel? -I already have it.
You'll hear that later.
Unanimity. Unanimity, right?
Then let's get to the table.
This is nice.
You have an oyster knife on the table.
We have a basket of six oysters for everyone.
You place all six on your plate.
I'm going to check if they are opened properly.
There will be a winner. That person wins the golden mussel.
I don't know what is the purpose of the golden mussel.
Everything that is gold is Bram's.
You have the oysters. You place them in the cloth.
Like this. Then you insert the knife right here on this side.
It takes a bit of force, then you pry it open.
Then you can cut it loose along the top.
There must be nothing left on the top shell.
I'm looking forward to it. I think I can do this.
I think I go like this and then like this.
It feels like crafting. I'm good at crafting.
-3, 2, 1, go. -Come on, ladies and gentlemen.
Shucking oysters doesn't feel like crafting at all.
But Lesley isn't the only one who figures that out very quickly.
Opening the oysters was hell.
Jeez.
If someone eats my oyster, they'll have to chew on the shell too.
-Look, the first one. -The first one for Plamedi.
I don't get it.
I thought it was easy when I saw him do it.
Yes, I've got him.
Loosen it, next. Loosen it, next.
Next.
Yordi has two already.
I just don't get it.
It's an oyster.
Girl, open up.
Across from me, I see Daniëlle chopping her oyster into pieces.
I think, "Girl, what are you doing?"
But I just the f*** can't get it in.
I'm not swearing, sorry. Oops.
Why can't I get it in?
It didn't work.
She just couldn't open it.
Oh, yes. I got it.
Oh, I don't have it.
She couldn't open that one.
Really special.
I can't get it in.
Wow, Yordi.
-Ready. -Plamedi is ready.
Thank you.
The oysters opened so easily. I thought, "Wow, Plam, yes."
That's how we want it.
Plamedi from now on is called Heels over the Ditch queen of oysters.
Yes, Plamedi.
-It's for you. -Thank you.
I thought, "Yes, I have that golden mussel!"
You can use it in the upcoming elimination
as an exemption for yourself.
Or for one of the others.
Or you use it in the next elimination
against someone else.
That puts them directly in the danger zone.
What a dirty trick.
Use that power well, girl.
Plamedi sure has the power.
But not to magically get herself out of that stinky container.
So the oyster queen is stuck,
when Lesley approaches her for a strategic meeting.
Okay, listen.
I have an idea.
If you save that golden mussel for the next voting round,
there is a small chance,
though I don't expect it, that you'll be out in the first round.
Everyone will start brownnosing, because Plamedi is a target
or she can save someone.
She can save someone.
-Do you understand? -Yes.
Then in the next round, you have a chance to put someone in the danger zone.
-That's what I thought. -No, okay. All right.
Almost everyone is brownnosing me due to that golden mussel.
So, yes, I do feel like a queen.
-What's up? -Wait a moment.
-What do you think of that golden mussel? -You need to watch what you do.
-Toothpaste in my mouth. -You're crazy.
We don't talk to winners.
"We don't talk to winners?" I don't talk to losers.
I'm going to sleep. I'm exhausted. I don't feel like it.
Sleep well.
Sleep well, puppets.
Only a small gap. Otherwise, it's too cold.
Well, great. Everyone is already dozing off here.
Good night, everyone.
The next morning, oyster processor Bastiaan is on the work floor early,
to get the factory and the influencers up and running.
Good morning, guys.
Put on the overalls. You have half an hour.
I thought, "Is there a war? Are they shooting?"
Good morning, influencers.
You have half an hour.
A man in the evening, a man in the morning.
You're dealing with people, not animals.
Look how dirty this is, man.
-How is yours so clean? -I don't know.
-Because she didn't work. -Did you make €150 yesterday?
€125.
-She's talking about you. -Suddenly she's mean in the morning.
Mean, competitive, cheeky.
Whatever you want to call it, fact is that there's no time to chat.
Because the influencers have to report to Bas and a new fishmonger.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
What's this smell, dude?
I miss the city. I'd rather have the smell of gasoline than the sea air.
Fortunately, the view is more appealing than the smell suggests.
Suddenly, I can't smell anything. I can only see Farmer Kevin.
As you can see, we process mussels here.
We are outside. All the mussels come in here.
We will only be indoors today.
We are going to split into two groups.
The four of you may come with me. Others may go with Bas.
We'll do that. Thank you.
SORTING MUSSELS - STITCHING BAGS`
Today they can earn €150 per person
Some will do that by sorting mussels. Some of them by sewing bags.
Wherever you are, standing still is a mortal sin.
Because in this factory the line must always keep running.
Today we are going to sew bags.
TEAM SEWING
I get to sew with Farmer Kevin.
This is a jute bag. The mussels go in there.
And this is the label that has all the information about the mussels.
I look to the right and I see Lesley already in her spicy-content mode.
And I think, "Oh, friend."
The easiest is actually a scooping motion.
So through it and pull it through.
I see those strong arms and I just think…
Yes, pull it again. One more time.
Once more.
Pull.
At one point he grabs that rope.
He says, "Then you have to push hard."
I just think…
Then make some space for yourself by pushing a little.
Pushing… Pushing…
I also want to be pushed that hard.
-Yes? -Yes.
My mussel is going to open wide for Kevin. Come here.
You are going to sort mussels. Separate the mussels from the debris.
TEAM SORTING
A little crab, an empty shell, a knife handle.
There are some barnacles on the mussels. We sort those too.
-Only nice mussels? -Only the good mussels go through.
Watch your language.
We want people to communicate politely and decently.
Not with swearing or cursing.
-Got it? -Yes.
I've heard that they don't like swearing.
Especially not with the Holy Spirit.
You must not swear with that.
Because Jesus is important here.
Also important are the mussels that roll over the conveyor belt at high speed,
and have to be sorted by hand.
Elias, Yordi and Plamedi on the first line.
I stand at the line with a few migrant workers.
Then you can start sorting.
As a kind of work duty, you can go pick shells and crabs off that belt.
One of them had grabbed me for a moment.
It was hanging from my glove.
-You have the needle. You may stand here. -Okay.
One person may hand over the bag.
Yes, right? Thanks.
If you start with the next bag, he can start sewing.
I find Deborah annoying.
Yes, I really find her… No.
Right.
Then fold it inward.
-Like this? -Yes, very good.
It's actually really boring in that factory.
Nobody talks to each other. They have earplugs in.
And I hear the mussels falling all the time.
I cannot do this.
Yes.
It's not going so well.
You have it like this.
Remember the stroke back. Here you have one loop.
No offense to Bram, but come on.
-It has to go through again. -Yes.
You used a lot of rope at the beginning.
Bram is messing around with his bag. That's not normal.
He can't remember what he's supposed to do.
A hundred times over and over and over again.
-This one's loose, so that didn't go well. -Get it…
-So actually, it's not good. -Okay.
Well, then we'll just do it again.
It went very fast.
Open. Close.
You have to scan quickly. That one is wrong. That one is broken.
That's a crab. That's a rock.
This one out.
Those mussels go by so fast.
You have to pick up, pick up.
Yordi.
This one has to go out.
I understand, but there are still four people left to sort after me.
Can I let some through?
That should go?
I really get scared when I see a crab.
Here.
Where should this go? Here?
Oh, there.
This is like a game on my phone. Fruit Ninja.
You have to cross those things out. That's how it feels.
Break!
-Taking a break! -Break!
I think we did it well. Done.
-Enjoy your meal. -Enjoy.
A coffee with milk and sugar and lots of love.
-Chocolate milk? -Yes.
-Me too, Yor. -Me too.
You can get that from the machine here.
As far in as possible.
In. And then you have a loop here again.
No, wait.
-I'm not brave enough. -Look, like so.
He had a wife. I also have a husband.
But I do want to win, so I thought, "Kev, how are you doing?"
You push it under like this. And then you pull it tight.
-Oh, yes. -And then you have a loop.
Flirting with my man.
Daniëlle is standing next to me with Kevin, totally like, "Will you help me?"
I thought, "You have a guy at home, so you leave this one to me."
-Do you want me to do it again? -Can I say something?
-You have the best one of all. -Really?
Yes, superb.
I was jealous that he gave her a high five.
I wanted human contact too.
A high five from Farmer Kevin is nice, but a full paycheck is even nicer.
PAY SLIPS
Did this day of sorting mussels and sewing bags earn €1,500?
Or just a little less?
-Go, please. -Go.
-Oh, my god, I'm going to vomit. -Salary.
Plamedi is really good at this. She's a fish woman.
To be fair, I expected that I would get that €150.
It's about time. It's about to get time.
No.
Thanks, Bassie.
I come to work for you, I do my best. And I only get half.
€50, Yordi?
€50? How on earth did they come up with that?
I have €90.
Farmer Kevin?
Kevin!
-Are we leaving now? -Yes, we're going home.
Bye.
Yes, €125. Then I thought, Kevin…
What a shame. I don't know.
Lesley doesn't get a high five, but she does get €150.
Same for Shanta, Plamedi and Deborah.
The rest couldn't keep up the pace.
But by now, there's already €4,285 in the pot.
And that's serious money.
Especially when you know that after today, someone else has to leave.
But which two influencers should be worried?
And what is Plamedi going to do with her golden mussel?
Either she has immunity now, or she's going to give someone else immunity.
Or in the next round, she can immediately put someone in the danger zone.
If she's smart, she'll do the latter.
I have no idea. Last time, there was also a twist.
Cassidy wanted to go home, and it turned out completely differently.
I think someone would vote for me because I'm at the top of the list.
Even though that's not really part of the game yet. Right?
-I don't know. -Do you?
I really don't know.
Darling, you're a target.
-You think so? -Really?
-Because I brought the most to the pot? -You're the strongest player.
I'm in the danger zone and this is really not cool.
Guys, we have a letter.
We have a letter.
It says,
"Dear influencers, your time in Yerseke is almost over."
"Prepare yourselves for the second elimination."
"Just like with mussels, there always has to be one that drops out."
"I'll see you later. Regards, Robbert."
I'm going to prepare for the elimination, because people gotta go.
Which two influencers have worked the least hard?
Or are dangerous competitors in the hunt for the prize pot?
On the way to the voting booth, all influencers are as mum as an oyster.
Nobody wants to end up in that danger zone.
Oh, my god, it's that time again.
It feels like Debby just left.
Now we have to send someone home again.
I don't think I'm going home.
I hear that other people are more of a target than me.
I think I can play it a bit smarter than the rest.
Now the tension rises.
We need to think more strategically. Cassidy didn't matter to me. The rest did.
If you stab me in the back once, I'll stab you harder three times.
Three times.
Hello, flamboyant city dwellers.
Welcome to your second elimination.
Today, you've had a factory day.
Harléya, how was it?
You had to focus.
You had to pay attention, because the conveyor belt was fast.
-Was it fun? -I don't want to do it again.
It was fun to experience, but don't call me.
Deborah, tell me?
We had to tie bags.
I'm curious about something else.
When I say, old love never dies…
Tell me.
Elias, feel free to add anything where needed.
He will.
Yes, Elias, add things to it.
It's fun, it's cozy.
There's attraction, obviously.
Next question?
Bram, how are you?
-Not well. -No?
No, certainly not.
This wasn't a nice day.
When I heard I had to sew for the task,
I could actually see the taxi home ahead of me.
Yes. Plamedi?
Zeeland is your province.
Are you discovering a new side of yourself here?
-Yes. -Yes?
I'm working harder than usual.
And then yesterday you also won the golden mussel.
Correct.
Has the dynamic in the group changed?
Yes, the people who didn't talk much to me are now talking a lot to me.
Okay, interesting.
-Have you made a choice? -Yes.
I'm not going to use it.
-You're not going to use it? -No.
Brave choice.
Because that means that anyone can be voted for tonight.
You'll come forward one at a time.
You write down the name of the person you want to eliminate.
The two people with the most votes will be in the danger zone.
And the village council will decide their fate today as well.
Luca…
-Yes. -…you can go first.
I'm going to vote for Bram because I think he's a strong player.
Daniëlle.
Right now, I want to vote for Daniëlle.
It has nothing to do with our little quarrel.
But purely because I'm done with that energy-draining stuff in the group.
Lesley.
Yordi.
Shanta.
I'm voting for Daniëlle because I find her annoying.
I notice that the group atmosphere is different when she is around.
And finally, Deborah.
One of you is going home tonight.
You've just voted.
Two of you have the most votes.
The first one who gets to start packing their bags…
-is you, Daniëlle. -Okay.
In the danger zone again. Expected?
Sort of.
What could be the reason for that?
Your popularity within the group?
Yes, I'm very close to some,
and a bit less so with others.
Yes, who's standing next to Daniëlle?
NEXT TIME
Yeah, I really needed to pee.
But I've never seen a cunt from…
-What? -Yes, it was really bizarre.
Max, please stop.
Stop, stop!
Come on. I'm just working alone here. Act normal.
"Act normal."
That smell.
Come on, ladies. Keep up the pace.
Scooping this, scooping that.
You won't win the war with them.
Speed it up, gentlemen. The ladies are faster than you.
-Having fun, Tym? -This could have been clean already.
Not being negative.
-Work needs to be done. -I quit.
Fuck off. I quit.
-What are you doing? -I quit. t.
