Mark and Olly trek through the mountains of West Papua seeking a sufficiently remote village for their adventure. After an unwelcoming greeting, they convince the village of Merringman to allow them to stay.

Mark and Olly get bossed about by chief Markus, eat tadpole kebab, get roped into a wedding from hell and, to their horror, hear tales of tribal revenge killings.

Mark and Olly get bossed about, suffer from sleep deprivation, attend an elder's funeral and get initiated in the tribe's traditional penis gourds - painful!

Mark Anstice and Olly Steeds begin constructing a new house, are reprimanded for not wearing their traditional penis gourds, hear gossip about sex lives in the village and become embroiled in a tribal rape trial.

A sighting of suangi leaves the tribe terrified that they may be under attack by supernatural forces. As Mark and Olly help rebuild the village, Merengman's dark past rears its ugly head, and the tribe is forced to call on the services of a traveling shaman.

Mark and Olly visit their tribe's traditional enemy, only to find money, clothes and religion.

Merringmen throws a farewell party for Mark and Olly before they leave for home.
