Neisha quickly carries a tray of drinks through a busy market.
Camille says, THE GIRLS HAVE GOT THIS.
Karim says, NO WAY!
THE BOYS HAVE GOT THIS!
Camille and the girls and a few others put their hands in the centre of a circle. They throw their hands up and cheer. Elsewhere Karim and the boys do the same.
One of the boys says, LET'S GO!
An animated pink Earth with yellow continents rotates and bounces. Text over the Earth reads, A Week to Beat the World.

MONGOLIAN.
THEY'VE SEEN CRAZY HORSE
RACES...

OF PRACTICE BEFORE THE BIG
EVENT, THE GIRLS ARE UP EARLY
AND ALREADY ON HORSEBACK.
Bilguun and a man ride with Alesha and Jocelyn.

Karim narrates, …ALL THREE SEEM TO
HAVE MADE HUGE PROGRESS.
Jocelyn rides beside Bilguun.
Camille says, WOW, JOCELYN'S GOTTEN SO
GOOD.
SHE COULD BARELY GET ON A HORSE
ON THE FIRST DAY.
GO ON, JOCELYN!
ALESHA'S GOT REALLY GOOD, AS
WELL!
Alesha rides beside a man.
Camille says, SHE'S BASICALLY RUNNING, THE
HORSE IS RUNNING.
IS THAT NEISHA?
Neisha rides her horse.
Camille says, WHOO!
GO ON, PRINCE HARRY.
WOW!
(Gasping)
Karim narrates, FIRST HORSE RIDE OF THE DAY
COMPLETE.
Camille, Geser and the girls approach a fenced area.
Camille asks, READY TO GO IN?
Jocelyn says, YEP.
Karim narrates, TO HELP THEM BE MORE
COMFORTABLE WITH THEIR
SEMI-WILD HORSES, GESER WANTS
THEM TO FEEL MORE AT EASE WITH
ANIMALS.
The team enters the fenced space full of goats.
Camille says, HI!
THEY'RE ALL STARING AT US.
Karim narrates, THE GIRLS' NOMAD HOST OYUNA
RAISES THESE GOATS FOR THEIR
PRECIOUS CASHMERE WOOL, WHICH
THEY SELL.
A young boy carries a young goat.
Karim narrates, ONLY TROUBLE IS, THE GOATS
AREN'T ALWAYS KEEN ON BEING
CAUGHT.
AND ON A RARE WARM DAY IN
MONGOLIA, THAT'S GOING TO BE
GESER'S CHALLENGE.
Geser speaks Mongolian. A person translates for him.
He says, IN SPRING,
MONGOLIAN'S COLLECT CASHMERE
FROM GOATS.
Alesha nods.
Geser says, SO, YOU EACH NEED TO GRAB A
GOAT BY THE HORNS.
Camille asks, HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT
GRABBING THE GOAT BY THE HORNS?
Alesha says, SCARED.
Jocelyn says, YEAH.
Neisha says, EXCITED.
Camille asks, WHAT ARE YOU SCARED ABOUT?
Jocelyn says, IN CASE IT LIKE RUNS INTO ME
OR, LIKE, BITES ME.
Camille says, I MEAN, YEAH, IF THESE HORNS
COME AT YOU, BAD TIMES.
Alesha says, THAT'S NOT REALLY HELPING.
Camille says, SORRY.
The girls laugh.
Alesha says, MY HEAD WAS LIKE, "WHY AM I
DOING THIS?"
NEVER SOMETHING LIKE THIS
BEFORE.
I WAS LIKE REALLY SCARED AND
NERVOUS 'CAUSE, LIKE, WHAT IF
THEY, LIKE, RAMMED AT ME?
THE ONLY PET I'VE EVER HAD IS A
FISH, SO I'VE HAD LIKE NO
EXPERIENCE AT ALL WITH ANIMALS
Jocelyn says, I DON'T KNOW WHICH
ONE TO PICK.
Karim narrates, THE GIRLS HAVE TO CATCH A
GOAT AND THEN GET AS MUCH WOOL
AS POSSIBLE.
The girls chase the goats in the fenced space.
Karim narrates, SO, THE QUICKER THEY CATCH ONE,
THE MORE TIME WILL BE LEFT TO
GET THE WOOL.
THEY HAVE JUST ONE HOUR.
The girls laugh as the goats run from them.
Camille says, YEAH, GO ON, NEISHA.
NEARLY.
Jocelyn says, WHEN I FIRST WENT IN THE PEN,
I WAS TERRIFIED.
One of the girls says, I'VE NEARLY GOT IT.
Camille says, I'M NEVER GOING TO GET A
CASHMERE SCARF AT THIS RATE!
I THINK YOU'VE GOTTA SPEED UP!
(Bleating)
Neisha corners a goat and grabs its horns.
Camille cheers, YES, NEISHA, SHE'S GOT ONE!
Neisha says, BACK AT HOME, WE DO HAVE LOTS
OF HORSES AND WE USED TO HAVE
LIKE PIGS AND SHEEP AND STUFF,
SO I'M COMFORTABLE WITH ANIMALS.
Alesha asks, DID IT MOVE A LOT WHEN YOU
GRABBED IT?
Neisha says, IT WASN'T TOO BAD, ACTUALLY.
Oyuna speaks Mongolian. A person translates for her.
She says, NOW, WE
NEED TO TIE THE GOAT'S LEGS AND
LAY IT DOWN ON THE GROUND.
THEN, WE CAN START COMBING.
Camille nods.
Karim narrates, TURNING A GOAT
UPSIDE-DOWN MIGHT LOOK A BIT
HARSH, BUT THE GOAT SEEMS
PRETTY CHILL ABOUT IT.
Geser carries a goat upside down by its legs.
Karim narrates, IT'S BASICALLY A BIT LIKE
GOING TO A GOATEE HAIRDRESSER.
NOT LIKE A GOATEE-BEARD,
A HAIRDRESSER FOR GOATS.
Geser holds the goats legs while Oyuna ties them.
Karim narrates, ANYWAY, BECAUSE IT'S SUMMER,
THEY NEED TO GET RID OF THEIR
THICK WINTER COATS, SO GOOD
TIMES.
Geser combs the goat.
Camille says, HE'S PROBABLY HAD
THIS DONE A LOT OF TIMES BEFORE.
Neisha says, YEAH.
Camille says, GO FOR IT, NEISHA.
LOOK AT THAT.
Geser passes Neisha the comb.
Camille says, LOOK AT THAT, PROPER CASHMERE.
She gasps.
Camille says, THAT’S SO SOFT.
Neisha says, YEAH IT IS, ACTUALLY.
Karim narrates, THE GIRLS HAVE TO COMB OUT
AS MUCH AS THEY CAN BEFORE THE
HOUR'S UP.
BUT THEY CAN'T GO TOO FAST OR
THE GOATS WILL FREAK OUT.
Neisha combs the
(Bleating)
Jocelyn says, I THINK I KNOW WHAT TO DO
NOW.
Camille says, YEAH?
RIGHT, COME ON, GOAT BACK IN
THERE.
Alesha says, LOVE THEM JOKES.
Camille says, YEAH, I DO.
THANK YOU.
Jocelyn tries to corner a goat.
She says, WHOA.
Camille says, JOCELYN WAS REALLY NERVOUS
TO BEGIN WITH, BUT SHE'S REALLY
GOING AFTER THEM NOW.
SHE'S GETTING BOLDER AND BOLDER.
A woman speaks Mongolian.
(Giggling)
Geser encourages Jocelyn towards a goat.
Camille says, GO FOR IT, JOCELYN!
(Bleating)
Oyuna helps Jocelyn grab a goat’s horns.
Camille says, YES!
SHE'S GOT ONE!
Oyuna carries the goat.
Jocelyn says, I THINK MY BOXING SKILLS
MIGHT HAVE HELPED 'CAUSE YOU
HAVE TO BE QUICK TO GRAB THE
HORNS AND YOU HAVE TO BE LIKE
STRONG TO KEEP THEM IN PLACE.
Camille says, THIS ONES SMALLER.
Karim narrates, IT TOOK A LITTLE BIT OF HELP,
BUT JOCELYN HAS GOT HERSELF A
GOAT.
IT'S FEISTY, BUT IT'S GOT LOADS
OF SHAGGY WOOL TO GET.
Jocelyn combs the goat.
She says, LOOK AT ALL THAT.
Camille says, YEAH, LOADS!
Karim narrates, IT'S A GAMBLE, BUT IF SHE
CAN KEEP IT CALM, THIS COULD BE
HER CHANCE TO OVERTAKE NEISHA.
Camille says, WHO ARE WE GONNA GO
FOR?
Alesha says, I DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE A PLAN.
Camille asks, WHICH ONE LOOKS THE
SHAGGIEST?
Alesha tries to corner a goat.
Camille says, THAT ONE LOOKS GOOD!
Camille screams as she dodges a goat.
Karim narrates, CAMILLE, YOU ARE DEFINITELY
NOT HELPING!
Alesha says, SPRINTING 100 METERS, YOU
SPRINT IN A STRAIGHT LINE, BUT
WITH THE GOATS, YOU ARE LIKE
GOING IN ALL DIFFERENT
DIRECTIONS, SO YOU REALLY NEED,
LIKE, AGILITY.
Oyuna tries to help Alesha catch a goat.
(Bleating)
Alesha catches a smaller goat by its horns.
(Bleating)
Beside the other girls, Alesha combs her goat.
Camille says, THAT WAS SO HARD.
Alesha says, YEAH.
Camille asks, HOW'S ITS CASHMERE LOOKING?
Alesha says, GOOD.
LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOT A LOT.
Camille says, YOU KNOW, THIS CAN GO FOR
150 QUID A KILO.
Alesha asks, REALLY?
Camille says, YEAH.
RIGHT, C'MON, THE OTHERS HAVE
HAD A HEAD START; WE'VE GOT TO
GET COMBING.
YOU'VE NOT GOT VERY LONG.
Karim narrates, ALESHA HAS JUST A FEW
MINUTES TO BRUSH UP ON HER
COMBING SKILLS AND TRY TO BEAT
THE OTHER TWO.
The girls comb their goats.
Karim narrates, IT'S ALL ABOUT WHO HAS MOST
CASHMERE AT THE END.
Camille says, TIME'S UP.
LET'S SEE HOW MUCH CASHMERE YOU
"GOAT".
Alesha says, THESE JOKES AREN'T GETTING
ANY BETTER.
Camille says, YOU'LL GROW TO LOVE THEM
AGAIN.
Karim narrates, DOUBT IT.
Camille says, NEISHA, IT'S NOT LOADS, BUT
IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOOD QUALITY.
JOCELYN, OH WOW, THERE IS A LOT.
LOOK AT THAT!
Camille and Geser inspect Jocelyn’s collection.
Camille says, ALESHA, WHOA, LOADS AS WELL!
Geser speaks Mongolian. A person translates for him.
He says, ALESHA IS
THE WINNER.
Camille says, ALESHA, YOU DID IT.
Camille high-fives Alesha.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, JOCELYN
AND ALESHA COLLECTED A SIMILAR
AMOUNT OF CASHMERE, BUT BECAUSE
ALESHA OVERCAME MORE OF A FEAR
OF ANIMALS, I GAVE FIRST PLACE
TO HER.
Alesha says, I THINK I'M MORE IN THE
RUNNING FOR CAPTAIN NOW BECAUSE
YESTERDAY, IN ARCHERY, WAS A
NARROW LOSS, AND TODAY,
GESER'S SEEN ME TRY MY BEST WITH
THE GOATS, SO MAYBE THAT'S
PUSHED ME AHEAD A BIT.
Karim narrates, HOPEFULLY, ALL THAT
GOAT COMBING HAS HELPED THE
GIRLS FEEL MORE RELAXED AROUND
ANIMALS.
BUT BEFORE THEY GET BACK TO
THEIR HORSES TO TEST IT OUT,
GESER HAS ONE MORE NOMAD SKILL
TO TEACH THEM, WHICH WILL BE
PART OF TOMORROW'S EVENT,
LASSOING.
The girls each stand at a post with rope.
(Laughing)
Karim narrates, AND THEY NEED TO IMPRESS HIM
BECAUSE, AT THE END OF TODAY,
HE'LL BE CHOOSING A CAPTAIN FOR
TOMORROW'S RACE.
Geser demonstrates how to throw the lasso.
He says, SUP.
Camille imitates the throwing motion.
She says, COOL.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, ONE SWING
AND THROW.
Camille swings her hips as she imitates the throw.
She says, ONCE... THROW?
Geser imitates Camille swinging her hips, then shakes his head. Jocelyn laughs.
Camille says, DON'T DO THE DANCING.
YEAH, COOL.
Karim narrates, IF YOU FANCY LASSOING
YOUR PET GOLDFISH AT HOME,
DEFINITELY DON'T.
IT'S TRUE THE SECRET TO A GOOD
LASSO IS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE
HIPS.
Geser demonstrates how to throw the lasso.
Karim narrates, JUST LEAN FORWARD, TWIRL THE
ROPE USING YOUR WRIST, AND
COMPLETE THE THROW WITH YOUR
ARM.
Geser throws the lasso around the post ahead of him.
Karim narrates, SIMPLE, RIGHT?
Camille says, LOOKS SO EASY.
The girls laugh.
Neisha says, GESER IS LIKE REALLY GOOD AT
EVERYTHING AND JUST MAKES LIKE
EVERYTHING LOOK REALLY EASY.
Karim narrates, DEMO OVER.
LET'S SEE IF THEY WERE PAYING
ATTENTION.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, OKAY, ALL
OF YOU THROW AT THE SAME TIME.
The girls start to swing to throw their lasso’s. Alesha bumps hers in her face.
Alesha says, I DON'T THINK THAT'S RIGHT.
Neisha gets her lasso wrapped around her.
Karim narrates, IT'S ALL A BIT
CHAOTIC, ISN'T IT?
Camille says, YOU'VE LASSO'D YOURSELF!
Karim narrates, BUT THEY NEED TO FOCUS, ONE
OF THEM WILL HAVE TO DO THIS
TOMORROW AS PART OF THE RACE.
Neisha laughs as they girls continue to struggle. Alesha throws her lasso and gets it around the post.
In English, Geser says, OH, OKAY!
Jocelyn asks, HOW DID YOU DO
THAT!?
Alesha says, DON'T KNOW!
BEGINNER'S LUCK.
WHEN I GOT IT ON FIRST TIME,
I WAS THINKING, "OOH, MAYBE I'M
GOING TO DO ALL RIGHT."
Jocelyn throws and lands her lasso.
Camille says, AH, THAT WASN'T BAD;
THAT WAS CLOSE.
Neisha throws and lands her lasso.
Camille says, OH, YES, YOU GOT IT!
Neisha says, I WAS LIKE REALLY HAPPY, AND
I THOUGHT I CAN, LIKE, DO IT
EASILY.
BUT OBVIOUSLY IT WAS LIKE
BEGINNER'S LUCK OR SOMETHING.
Jocelyn throws her lasso and it goes past the post again. She laughs.
Camille says, JOCELYN, YOU'VE GOT QUITE A
POWERFUL THROW.
Jocelyn says, I KNOW, I JUST CAN'T AIM.
I THINK WHAT WENT WRONG IS
THAT I'M NOT VERY GOOD AT
AIMING.
She tries throwing her lasso again, but misses.
(Chuckling)
Geser speaks in Mongolian.
Karim narrates, WITH THE GIRLS SEEMING A
LITTLE BIT HESITANT WITH THIS
SKILL, CAMILLE'S GOT A PLAN TO
BRING OUT THEIR COMPETITIVE
SIDES, AND IT'S A PLAN
SHE'S QUITE EXCITED ABOUT.
Camille says, OKAY, I'VE GOT A GREAT IDEA!
WE'RE GOING TO DO A LASSO
COMPETITION!
I'VE GOT A STOPWATCH;
I'M GOING TO KEEP TIME.
THREE MINUTES, OKAY?
Karim narrates, SHE IS REALLY EXCITED.
Camille says, THREE MINUTES TO LASSO AS
MANY TIMES AS YOU CAN ON YOUR
POLE!
NEISHA!
Karim says, WOW.
SHE REALLY LIKES LASSOING,
WHICH GIVES ME AN IDEA FOR A
CHALLENGE LATER.
Camille asks, ARE YOU READY?!
The girls say, YEAH!
Camille says, THREE, TWO, ONE!
IT'S LASSO TIME!
The girls throw their lassos.
Camille says, NO ONE GOT THE FIRST SHOT.
EIGHT SECONDS DOWN ALREADY!
COME ON!
NEISHA'S READY.
Neisha and Jocelyn throw their lassos. They both miss. Alesha struggles with her lasso.
Alesha says, THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
Camille says, UNSUCCESSFUL THOUGH.
Alesha says, THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
Camille says, IMAGINE A COW'S IN FRONT OF YOU.
THIS IS A CATTLE BATTLE!
Neisha throws and lands her lasso around her post.
Camille says, YES, FIRST ONE AT ONE MINUTE, 21
SECONDS!
Alesha throws and lands her lasso.
Camille says, YES, ALESHA GOT ONE!
Alesha says, THROUGHOUT THE COMPETITION,
ME AND NEISHA WAS QUITE CLOSE.
Camille says, ONE DOWN,
LOADS TO GO.
Neisha says, 'CAUSE I GOT ONE THEN SHE GOT
ONE.
Camille says, COME ON GIRLS, SHOW ME THOSE MOVES.
YES, ALESHA!
Neisha says, AND THEN SHE GOT ANOTHER ONE,
SO I GOT ONE.
Camille says, NEISHA, YES!
HOW MANY YOU GOT NOW?
Neisha says, TWO.
Jocelyn says, I'VE GOT NONE.
Camille says, COME ON, JOCELYN, GO FOR IT.
TEN SECONDS.
COME ON, GIRLS, JUST THROW IT!
I DON'T CARE!
The girls laugh.
Camille says, TWO, ONE!
Neisha throws her lasso.
Camille says, TIME'S UP!
Neisha’s lasso hangs on her post.
Camille says, NEISHA, DID YOU GET THE ONE ON
THE BELL?
HALF.
Alesha says, IN THE VERY LAST THROW, SHE
GOT ONE LIKE HALF ON.
Camille says, AH, GESER, ARE YOU GOING TO
LET HER HAVE THAT ONE?
A person translates for Geser.
He says, YES,
IT COUNTS.
Camille says, YEAH?
Jocelyn says, I WAS REALLY HAPPY WHEN I
FOUND OUT THAT I WON THE BIG
LASSOING CHALLENGE 'CAUSE I
WASN'T EXPECTING TO WIN IT
'CAUSE I DIDN'T THINK I WAS VERY
GOOD.
Jocelyn says, THAT WAS HARD.
Alesha says, SO HARD, YEAH.
Jocelyn says, I WAS JUST TERRIBLE AT IT.
Neisha says, NO, YOU WEREN'T.
Alesha says, NO, YOU WEREN’T.
Jocelyn says, I THINK I'M REALLY BAD AT
LASSOING, BUT YOU CAN'T BE GOOD
AT EVERYTHING.
Camille says, BE BACK IN A BIT, GIRLS.
I'VE GOT A MESSAGE FROM KARIM
AGAIN!
Camille pulls out her phone.
In a video, Karim says, YO, JUST CHECKING IN TO SEE
HOW YOU'RE DOING.
I'M SURE YOU'VE GOT LOADS OF
ENERGY BECAUSE YOU, MY FRIEND,
HAVE BEEN SLACKING.
TOO MUCH TALKING, NOT ENOUGH
WORKING.
(Tutting)
Karim says, GANTUMUR'S GOT A MISSION FOR
YOU.
JUST TAKE YOURSELF, YOUR BRAIN
POWER AND YOUR MUSCLE POWER,
OOH, AND A LASSO!
SEE'S YA!
Camille says, A LASSO?
She sighs.
She says, KARIM!
Karim narrates, AS CAMILLE GOES OFF IN
SEARCH OF GANTUMUR, THE GIRLS
ARE TAKING EVERY LAST MINUTE OF
DAYLIGHT TO REALLY PUT THEIR
HORSE-RIDING SKILLS TO THE
TEST.
IT'LL BE UP TO THE CAPTAIN TO
CHOOSE WHO DOES THE RIDING IN
TOMORROW'S RACE.
IT SEEMED LIKE A FOREGONE
CONCLUSION ON DAY ONE.
BUT THE OTHER TWO GIRLS HAVE
REALLY CLOSED THE GAP TO
SHOWJUMPER NEISHA.
The girls ride their horses with Geser, Bilguun and another man. Elsewhere, Camille carries a lasso.
Camille says, GANTUMUR, I'VE BEEN TOLD TO
TURN UP WITH A LASSO.
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?
Gantumur speaks Mongolian. He gestures to some animals.
Camille says, YOU WANT ME TO LASSO THAT
YAK?
OKAY, COOL.
ONE JOB, KARIM, I CAN DO THIS.
A yak slowly wanders away from Camille.
Camille says, WHOA, WHOA!
Camille takes off running after a yak with her lasso.
She throws her lasso as she screams, but the yak gets away. Gantumur laughs as the yak runs off.
Camille says, WHAT?!
Gantumur speaks Mongolian.
Camille says, GANTUMUR, I'LL GET HIM!
I PROMISE!
Camille runs after the yak. Gantumur grins and laughs.
Karim narrates, YES!
I'VE FINALLY FOUND SOMEBODY
ELSE WHO REALISES HOW
RIDICULOUS CAMILLE IS.
Gantumur speaks Mongolian has he walks away with a young girl.
Karim narrates, THE GIRLS' DAY IS NEARLY DONE.
TOMORROW, THEY'LL TEST ALL
THEIR MONGOLIAN SKILLS IN A
SUPER TOUGH RELAY RACE.
BUT BEFORE THEY REST, GESER,
OYUNA AND BILGUUN WANT TO SHOW
THEM A TRADITIONAL WAY OF
PREDICTING THE OUTCOME.
Bilguun, Geser and Oyuna sit at a small table in a Ger with Camille and the girls. Oyuna speaks Mongolian. A person translates for her.
She says, THIS IS
CALLED SHARA.
WE COLLECT THESE ANKLE BONES
FROM SHEEP AND GOATS, CLEAN
THEM UP AND PLAY VARIOUS GAMES
WITH THEM.
Oyuna lines up the dice-like bones.
Karim narrates, DIFFERENT SIDES OF THE
BONE REPRESENT DIFFERENT
ANIMALS.
SOME ARE SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD -
LIKE SHEEP - AND SOME ARE BAD -
LIKE CAMELS.
WHY YOU HATING ON CAMELS?
Camille says, BIT LIKE A MAGIC 8 BALL.
The girls say, YEAH.
Jocelyn asks, WILL I EVER GET GOOD AT
LASSOING?
Jocelyn shakes the bones between her hands.
Camille says, GOOD QUESTION.
Jocelyn rolls the bones like dice onto the table. Bilguun speaks Mongolian. A person translates for him.
Bilguun says, SO,
YOU'VE GOT TWO SHEEP, A GOAT
AND A CAMEL.
A person translates for Oyuna.
She says, BECAUSE
YOU GOT TWO SHEEP, IT MEANS
YES, IT'S POSITIVE.
Camille says, THAT'S GOOD NEWS.
Jocelyn says, YEAH.
Camille asks, THAT MADE YOU A BIT CONFIDENT
FOR TOMORROW?
Jocelyn says, A LITTLE BIT.
Camille says, YEAH?
The other girls giggle.
Camille says, I'VE GOT A QUESTION.
Camille takes the ankle bones and shakes them between her hands.
She asks, WILL THE GIRLS DO WELL AS A TEAM
IN THE BIG RACE TOMORROW?
Camille releases the bones onto the table.
A person translates for Oyuna.
She says, YOU GOT
THREE SHEEP AND A GOAT.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, IT MEANS
THE RESULT IS AVERAGE...
Camille says, OH...
Geser says, ...AND YOU WILL BE BEATEN BY
STRANGERS.
Jocelyn says, THAT'S NOT A GOOD SIGN.
Camille says, THAT'S A TERRIBLE SIGN,
JOCELYN!
Jocelyn laughs.
Camille says, THERE'S ONE MORE QUESTION THOUGH
THAT WE CAN'T ASK THE BONES.
THE ONLY PERSON THAT CAN ANSWER
IT IS GESER.
HAVE YOU MADE YOUR DECISION
ABOUT WHO IS GOING TO BE
TEAM CAPTAIN FOR TOMORROW'S BIG
DAY?
A person translates for Geser.
He says, YES,
I HAVE.
Camille says, HE HAS.
OKAY, WHO IS IT?
Camille drums on the table with her hands.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, NEISHA.
Camille says, NEISHA!
WHOO!
Camille and the other girls clap.
Camilel asks, WHY HAVE YOU CHOSEN, NEISHA?
A person translates for Geser.
He says, I HAVE
SEEN THAT SHE IS VERY CAPABLE
AND ALSO THAT SHE HELPS THE
OTHERS DURING PRACTICE AND
COMPETITION.
Camille says, TOMORROW, YOU WILL BE PLAYING
TOGETHER AS A TEAM AGAINST THE
LOCALS, BUT IT'S GOING TO BE
SUCH A BIG DAY, SO I THINK WE
SHOULD GO GET SOME REST 'CAUSE,
IF WE DON'T, YOU MIGHT NOT PROVE
THOSE BONES WRONG.
(Giggling)
Karim narrates, NEXT TIME, IT'S THE
GIRL'S TEAM'S FINAL DAY IN
MONGOLIA AND THEY'LL HAVE TO
PUT EVERYTHING THEY'VE LEARNED
TO THE TEST.
Camille asks, ARE YOU READY, GIRLS?
Geser speaks in Mongolian and Neisha and a group of kids take off running.
Karim narrates, THEY'LL DIVIDE, AND HOPEFULLY
CONQUER, EACH CHOOSING A
NOMAD SKILL AS PART OF AN
EPIC RELAY RACE AGAINST
THE LOCALS.
Camille cheers, COME ON, NEISHA!
Karim narrates, HOW WILL THEY GET ON, IN

WEEK TO
BEAT THE WORLD?

AN EPIC RELAY RACE WHERE
THEY'LL EACH PERFORM A
DIFFERENT TRADITIONAL SKILL.
One of the girls rides a horse.
Karim narrates, HEAD COACH GESER HAS GIVEN THEM
A CRASH COURSE IN ALL THINGS
MONGOLIAN.
THEY'VE SEEN CRAZY HORSE
RACES...
Camille cheers, HERE THEY COME IN!
Karim narrates, ...SHOT WITH BOWS AND
ARROWS...
Camille and the girls say, WHOA!
Karim narrates, ...AND EATEN A SHEEP'S FACE.
Jocelyn says, IT TASTES WEIRD!
Karim narrates, AS TODAY IS THE FINAL DAY
OF PRACTICE BEFORE THE BIG
EVENT, THE GIRLS ARE UP EARLY
AND ALREADY ON HORSEBACK.
Bilguun and a man ride with Alesha and Jocelyn.
Jocelyn says, COME ON, DAVE.
Karim narrates, GESER'S TAKEN THEM AND
BILGUUN OUT TO HONE THEIR
RIDING SKILLS.
THIS WILL BE A BIG PART OF THE
RACE TOMORROW, AND HAPPILY…
Geser shoots an arrow at a target.
Karim narrates, …SINCE THEY SAW THE MOUNTAIN
THEY HAD TO CLIMB JUST A FEW
DAYS AGO…
A man hangs unside down on a side of a running horse.
Karim narrates, …ALL THREE SEEM TO
HAVE MADE HUGE PROGRESS.
Jocelyn rides beside Bilguun.
Camille says, WOW, JOCELYN'S GOTTEN SO
GOOD.
SHE COULD BARELY GET ON A HORSE
ON THE FIRST DAY.
GO ON, JOCELYN!
ALESHA'S GOT REALLY GOOD, AS
WELL!
Alesha rides beside a man.
Camille says, SHE'S BASICALLY RUNNING, THE
HORSE IS RUNNING.
IS THAT NEISHA?
Neisha rides her horse.
Camille says, WHOO!
GO ON, PRINCE HARRY.
WOW!
(Gasping)
Karim narrates, FIRST HORSE RIDE OF THE DAY
COMPLETE.
Camille, Geser and the girls approach a fenced area.
Camille asks, READY TO GO IN?
Jocelyn says, YEP.
Karim narrates, TO HELP THEM BE MORE
COMFORTABLE WITH THEIR
SEMI-WILD HORSES, GESER WANTS
THEM TO FEEL MORE AT EASE WITH
ANIMALS.
The team enters the fenced space full of goats.
Camille says, HI!
THEY'RE ALL STARING AT US.
Karim narrates, THE GIRLS' NOMAD HOST OYUNA
RAISES THESE GOATS FOR THEIR
PRECIOUS CASHMERE WOOL, WHICH
THEY SELL.
A young boy carries a young goat.
Karim narrates, ONLY TROUBLE IS, THE GOATS
AREN'T ALWAYS KEEN ON BEING
CAUGHT.
AND ON A RARE WARM DAY IN
MONGOLIA, THAT'S GOING TO BE
GESER'S CHALLENGE.
Geser speaks Mongolian. A person translates for him.
He says, IN SPRING,
MONGOLIAN'S COLLECT CASHMERE
FROM GOATS.
Alesha nods.
Geser says, SO, YOU EACH NEED TO GRAB A
GOAT BY THE HORNS.
Camille asks, HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT
GRABBING THE GOAT BY THE HORNS?
Alesha says, SCARED.
Jocelyn says, YEAH.
Neisha says, EXCITED.
Camille asks, WHAT ARE YOU SCARED ABOUT?
Jocelyn says, IN CASE IT LIKE RUNS INTO ME
OR, LIKE, BITES ME.
Camille says, I MEAN, YEAH, IF THESE HORNS
COME AT YOU, BAD TIMES.
Alesha says, THAT'S NOT REALLY HELPING.
Camille says, SORRY.
The girls laugh.
Alesha says, MY HEAD WAS LIKE, "WHY AM I
DOING THIS?"
NEVER SOMETHING LIKE THIS
BEFORE.
I WAS LIKE REALLY SCARED AND
NERVOUS 'CAUSE, LIKE, WHAT IF
THEY, LIKE, RAMMED AT ME?
THE ONLY PET I'VE EVER HAD IS A
FISH, SO I'VE HAD LIKE NO
EXPERIENCE AT ALL WITH ANIMALS
Jocelyn says, I DON'T KNOW WHICH
ONE TO PICK.
Karim narrates, THE GIRLS HAVE TO CATCH A
GOAT AND THEN GET AS MUCH WOOL
AS POSSIBLE.
The girls chase the goats in the fenced space.
Karim narrates, SO, THE QUICKER THEY CATCH ONE,
THE MORE TIME WILL BE LEFT TO
GET THE WOOL.
THEY HAVE JUST ONE HOUR.
The girls laugh as the goats run from them.
Camille says, YEAH, GO ON, NEISHA.
NEARLY.
Jocelyn says, WHEN I FIRST WENT IN THE PEN,
I WAS TERRIFIED.
One of the girls says, I'VE NEARLY GOT IT.
Camille says, I'M NEVER GOING TO GET A
CASHMERE SCARF AT THIS RATE!
I THINK YOU'VE GOTTA SPEED UP!
(Bleating)
Neisha corners a goat and grabs its horns.
Camille cheers, YES, NEISHA, SHE'S GOT ONE!
Neisha says, BACK AT HOME, WE DO HAVE LOTS
OF HORSES AND WE USED TO HAVE
LIKE PIGS AND SHEEP AND STUFF,
SO I'M COMFORTABLE WITH ANIMALS.
Alesha asks, DID IT MOVE A LOT WHEN YOU
GRABBED IT?
Neisha says, IT WASN'T TOO BAD, ACTUALLY.
Oyuna speaks Mongolian. A person translates for her.
She says, NOW, WE
NEED TO TIE THE GOAT'S LEGS AND
LAY IT DOWN ON THE GROUND.
THEN, WE CAN START COMBING.
Camille nods.
Karim narrates, TURNING A GOAT
UPSIDE-DOWN MIGHT LOOK A BIT
HARSH, BUT THE GOAT SEEMS
PRETTY CHILL ABOUT IT.
Geser carries a goat upside down by its legs.
Karim narrates, IT'S BASICALLY A BIT LIKE
GOING TO A GOATEE HAIRDRESSER.
NOT LIKE A GOATEE-BEARD,
A HAIRDRESSER FOR GOATS.
Geser holds the goats legs while Oyuna ties them.
Karim narrates, ANYWAY, BECAUSE IT'S SUMMER,
THEY NEED TO GET RID OF THEIR
THICK WINTER COATS, SO GOOD
TIMES.
Geser combs the goat.
Camille says, HE'S PROBABLY HAD
THIS DONE A LOT OF TIMES BEFORE.
Neisha says, YEAH.
Camille says, GO FOR IT, NEISHA.
LOOK AT THAT.
Geser passes Neisha the comb.
Camille says, LOOK AT THAT, PROPER CASHMERE.
She gasps.
Camille says, THAT’S SO SOFT.
Neisha says, YEAH IT IS, ACTUALLY.
Karim narrates, THE GIRLS HAVE TO COMB OUT
AS MUCH AS THEY CAN BEFORE THE
HOUR'S UP.
BUT THEY CAN'T GO TOO FAST OR
THE GOATS WILL FREAK OUT.
Neisha combs the
(Bleating)
Jocelyn says, I THINK I KNOW WHAT TO DO
NOW.
Camille says, YEAH?
RIGHT, COME ON, GOAT BACK IN
THERE.
Alesha says, LOVE THEM JOKES.
Camille says, YEAH, I DO.
THANK YOU.
Jocelyn tries to corner a goat.
She says, WHOA.
Camille says, JOCELYN WAS REALLY NERVOUS
TO BEGIN WITH, BUT SHE'S REALLY
GOING AFTER THEM NOW.
SHE'S GETTING BOLDER AND BOLDER.
A woman speaks Mongolian.
(Giggling)
Geser encourages Jocelyn towards a goat.
Camille says, GO FOR IT, JOCELYN!
(Bleating)
Oyuna helps Jocelyn grab a goat’s horns.
Camille says, YES!
SHE'S GOT ONE!
Oyuna carries the goat.
Jocelyn says, I THINK MY BOXING SKILLS
MIGHT HAVE HELPED 'CAUSE YOU
HAVE TO BE QUICK TO GRAB THE
HORNS AND YOU HAVE TO BE LIKE
STRONG TO KEEP THEM IN PLACE.
Camille says, THIS ONES SMALLER.
Karim narrates, IT TOOK A LITTLE BIT OF HELP,
BUT JOCELYN HAS GOT HERSELF A
GOAT.
IT'S FEISTY, BUT IT'S GOT LOADS
OF SHAGGY WOOL TO GET.
Jocelyn combs the goat.
She says, LOOK AT ALL THAT.
Camille says, YEAH, LOADS!
Karim narrates, IT'S A GAMBLE, BUT IF SHE
CAN KEEP IT CALM, THIS COULD BE
HER CHANCE TO OVERTAKE NEISHA.
Camille says, WHO ARE WE GONNA GO
FOR?
Alesha says, I DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE A PLAN.
Camille asks, WHICH ONE LOOKS THE
SHAGGIEST?
Alesha tries to corner a goat.
Camille says, THAT ONE LOOKS GOOD!
Camille screams as she dodges a goat.
Karim narrates, CAMILLE, YOU ARE DEFINITELY
NOT HELPING!
Alesha says, SPRINTING 100 METERS, YOU
SPRINT IN A STRAIGHT LINE, BUT
WITH THE GOATS, YOU ARE LIKE
GOING IN ALL DIFFERENT
DIRECTIONS, SO YOU REALLY NEED,
LIKE, AGILITY.
Oyuna tries to help Alesha catch a goat.
(Bleating)
Alesha catches a smaller goat by its horns.
(Bleating)
Beside the other girls, Alesha combs her goat.
Camille says, THAT WAS SO HARD.
Alesha says, YEAH.
Camille asks, HOW'S ITS CASHMERE LOOKING?
Alesha says, GOOD.
LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOT A LOT.
Camille says, YOU KNOW, THIS CAN GO FOR
150 QUID A KILO.
Alesha asks, REALLY?
Camille says, YEAH.
RIGHT, C'MON, THE OTHERS HAVE
HAD A HEAD START; WE'VE GOT TO
GET COMBING.
YOU'VE NOT GOT VERY LONG.
Karim narrates, ALESHA HAS JUST A FEW
MINUTES TO BRUSH UP ON HER
COMBING SKILLS AND TRY TO BEAT
THE OTHER TWO.
The girls comb their goats.
Karim narrates, IT'S ALL ABOUT WHO HAS MOST
CASHMERE AT THE END.
Camille says, TIME'S UP.
LET'S SEE HOW MUCH CASHMERE YOU
"GOAT".
Alesha says, THESE JOKES AREN'T GETTING
ANY BETTER.
Camille says, YOU'LL GROW TO LOVE THEM
AGAIN.
Karim narrates, DOUBT IT.
Camille says, NEISHA, IT'S NOT LOADS, BUT
IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOOD QUALITY.
JOCELYN, OH WOW, THERE IS A LOT.
LOOK AT THAT!
Camille and Geser inspect Jocelyn’s collection.
Camille says, ALESHA, WHOA, LOADS AS WELL!
Geser speaks Mongolian. A person translates for him.
He says, ALESHA IS
THE WINNER.
Camille says, ALESHA, YOU DID IT.
Camille high-fives Alesha.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, JOCELYN
AND ALESHA COLLECTED A SIMILAR
AMOUNT OF CASHMERE, BUT BECAUSE
ALESHA OVERCAME MORE OF A FEAR
OF ANIMALS, I GAVE FIRST PLACE
TO HER.
Alesha says, I THINK I'M MORE IN THE
RUNNING FOR CAPTAIN NOW BECAUSE
YESTERDAY, IN ARCHERY, WAS A
NARROW LOSS, AND TODAY,
GESER'S SEEN ME TRY MY BEST WITH
THE GOATS, SO MAYBE THAT'S
PUSHED ME AHEAD A BIT.
Karim narrates, HOPEFULLY, ALL THAT
GOAT COMBING HAS HELPED THE
GIRLS FEEL MORE RELAXED AROUND
ANIMALS.
BUT BEFORE THEY GET BACK TO
THEIR HORSES TO TEST IT OUT,
GESER HAS ONE MORE NOMAD SKILL
TO TEACH THEM, WHICH WILL BE
PART OF TOMORROW'S EVENT,
LASSOING.
The girls each stand at a post with rope.
(Laughing)
Karim narrates, AND THEY NEED TO IMPRESS HIM
BECAUSE, AT THE END OF TODAY,
HE'LL BE CHOOSING A CAPTAIN FOR
TOMORROW'S RACE.
Geser demonstrates how to throw the lasso.
He says, SUP.
Camille imitates the throwing motion.
She says, COOL.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, ONE SWING
AND THROW.
Camille swings her hips as she imitates the throw.
She says, ONCE... THROW?
Geser imitates Camille swinging her hips, then shakes his head. Jocelyn laughs.
Camille says, DON'T DO THE DANCING.
YEAH, COOL.
Karim narrates, IF YOU FANCY LASSOING
YOUR PET GOLDFISH AT HOME,
DEFINITELY DON'T.
IT'S TRUE THE SECRET TO A GOOD
LASSO IS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE
HIPS.
Geser demonstrates how to throw the lasso.
Karim narrates, JUST LEAN FORWARD, TWIRL THE
ROPE USING YOUR WRIST, AND
COMPLETE THE THROW WITH YOUR
ARM.
Geser throws the lasso around the post ahead of him.
Karim narrates, SIMPLE, RIGHT?
Camille says, LOOKS SO EASY.
The girls laugh.
Neisha says, GESER IS LIKE REALLY GOOD AT
EVERYTHING AND JUST MAKES LIKE
EVERYTHING LOOK REALLY EASY.
Karim narrates, DEMO OVER.
LET'S SEE IF THEY WERE PAYING
ATTENTION.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, OKAY, ALL
OF YOU THROW AT THE SAME TIME.
The girls start to swing to throw their lasso’s. Alesha bumps hers in her face.
Alesha says, I DON'T THINK THAT'S RIGHT.
Neisha gets her lasso wrapped around her.
Karim narrates, IT'S ALL A BIT
CHAOTIC, ISN'T IT?
Camille says, YOU'VE LASSO'D YOURSELF!
Karim narrates, BUT THEY NEED TO FOCUS, ONE
OF THEM WILL HAVE TO DO THIS
TOMORROW AS PART OF THE RACE.
Neisha laughs as they girls continue to struggle. Alesha throws her lasso and gets it around the post.
In English, Geser says, OH, OKAY!
Jocelyn asks, HOW DID YOU DO
THAT!?
Alesha says, DON'T KNOW!
BEGINNER'S LUCK.
WHEN I GOT IT ON FIRST TIME,
I WAS THINKING, "OOH, MAYBE I'M
GOING TO DO ALL RIGHT."
Jocelyn throws and lands her lasso.
Camille says, AH, THAT WASN'T BAD;
THAT WAS CLOSE.
Neisha throws and lands her lasso.
Camille says, OH, YES, YOU GOT IT!
Neisha says, I WAS LIKE REALLY HAPPY, AND
I THOUGHT I CAN, LIKE, DO IT
EASILY.
BUT OBVIOUSLY IT WAS LIKE
BEGINNER'S LUCK OR SOMETHING.
Jocelyn throws her lasso and it goes past the post again. She laughs.
Camille says, JOCELYN, YOU'VE GOT QUITE A
POWERFUL THROW.
Jocelyn says, I KNOW, I JUST CAN'T AIM.
I THINK WHAT WENT WRONG IS
THAT I'M NOT VERY GOOD AT
AIMING.
She tries throwing her lasso again, but misses.
(Chuckling)
Geser speaks in Mongolian.
Karim narrates, WITH THE GIRLS SEEMING A
LITTLE BIT HESITANT WITH THIS
SKILL, CAMILLE'S GOT A PLAN TO
BRING OUT THEIR COMPETITIVE
SIDES, AND IT'S A PLAN
SHE'S QUITE EXCITED ABOUT.
Camille says, OKAY, I'VE GOT A GREAT IDEA!
WE'RE GOING TO DO A LASSO
COMPETITION!
I'VE GOT A STOPWATCH;
I'M GOING TO KEEP TIME.
THREE MINUTES, OKAY?
Karim narrates, SHE IS REALLY EXCITED.
Camille says, THREE MINUTES TO LASSO AS
MANY TIMES AS YOU CAN ON YOUR
POLE!
NEISHA!
Karim says, WOW.
SHE REALLY LIKES LASSOING,
WHICH GIVES ME AN IDEA FOR A
CHALLENGE LATER.
Camille asks, ARE YOU READY?!
The girls say, YEAH!
Camille says, THREE, TWO, ONE!
IT'S LASSO TIME!
The girls throw their lassos.
Camille says, NO ONE GOT THE FIRST SHOT.
EIGHT SECONDS DOWN ALREADY!
COME ON!
NEISHA'S READY.
Neisha and Jocelyn throw their lassos. They both miss. Alesha struggles with her lasso.
Alesha says, THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
Camille says, UNSUCCESSFUL THOUGH.
Alesha says, THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
Camille says, IMAGINE A COW'S IN FRONT OF YOU.
THIS IS A CATTLE BATTLE!
Neisha throws and lands her lasso around her post.
Camille says, YES, FIRST ONE AT ONE MINUTE, 21
SECONDS!
Alesha throws and lands her lasso.
Camille says, YES, ALESHA GOT ONE!
Alesha says, THROUGHOUT THE COMPETITION,
ME AND NEISHA WAS QUITE CLOSE.
Camille says, ONE DOWN,
LOADS TO GO.
Neisha says, 'CAUSE I GOT ONE THEN SHE GOT
ONE.
Camille says, COME ON GIRLS, SHOW ME THOSE MOVES.
YES, ALESHA!
Neisha says, AND THEN SHE GOT ANOTHER ONE,
SO I GOT ONE.
Camille says, NEISHA, YES!
HOW MANY YOU GOT NOW?
Neisha says, TWO.
Jocelyn says, I'VE GOT NONE.
Camille says, COME ON, JOCELYN, GO FOR IT.
TEN SECONDS.
COME ON, GIRLS, JUST THROW IT!
I DON'T CARE!
The girls laugh.
Camille says, TWO, ONE!
Neisha throws her lasso.
Camille says, TIME'S UP!
Neisha’s lasso hangs on her post.
Camille says, NEISHA, DID YOU GET THE ONE ON
THE BELL?
HALF.
Alesha says, IN THE VERY LAST THROW, SHE
GOT ONE LIKE HALF ON.
Camille says, AH, GESER, ARE YOU GOING TO
LET HER HAVE THAT ONE?
A person translates for Geser.
He says, YES,
IT COUNTS.
Camille says, YEAH?
Jocelyn says, I WAS REALLY HAPPY WHEN I
FOUND OUT THAT I WON THE BIG
LASSOING CHALLENGE 'CAUSE I
WASN'T EXPECTING TO WIN IT
'CAUSE I DIDN'T THINK I WAS VERY
GOOD.
Jocelyn says, THAT WAS HARD.
Alesha says, SO HARD, YEAH.
Jocelyn says, I WAS JUST TERRIBLE AT IT.
Neisha says, NO, YOU WEREN'T.
Alesha says, NO, YOU WEREN’T.
Jocelyn says, I THINK I'M REALLY BAD AT
LASSOING, BUT YOU CAN'T BE GOOD
AT EVERYTHING.
Camille says, BE BACK IN A BIT, GIRLS.
I'VE GOT A MESSAGE FROM KARIM
AGAIN!
Camille pulls out her phone.
In a video, Karim says, YO, JUST CHECKING IN TO SEE
HOW YOU'RE DOING.
I'M SURE YOU'VE GOT LOADS OF
ENERGY BECAUSE YOU, MY FRIEND,
HAVE BEEN SLACKING.
TOO MUCH TALKING, NOT ENOUGH
WORKING.
(Tutting)
Karim says, GANTUMUR'S GOT A MISSION FOR
YOU.
JUST TAKE YOURSELF, YOUR BRAIN
POWER AND YOUR MUSCLE POWER,
OOH, AND A LASSO!
SEE'S YA!
Camille says, A LASSO?
She sighs.
She says, KARIM!
Karim narrates, AS CAMILLE GOES OFF IN
SEARCH OF GANTUMUR, THE GIRLS
ARE TAKING EVERY LAST MINUTE OF
DAYLIGHT TO REALLY PUT THEIR
HORSE-RIDING SKILLS TO THE
TEST.
IT'LL BE UP TO THE CAPTAIN TO
CHOOSE WHO DOES THE RIDING IN
TOMORROW'S RACE.
IT SEEMED LIKE A FOREGONE
CONCLUSION ON DAY ONE.
BUT THE OTHER TWO GIRLS HAVE
REALLY CLOSED THE GAP TO
SHOWJUMPER NEISHA.
The girls ride their horses with Geser, Bilguun and another man. Elsewhere, Camille carries a lasso.
Camille says, GANTUMUR, I'VE BEEN TOLD TO
TURN UP WITH A LASSO.
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?
Gantumur speaks Mongolian. He gestures to some animals.
Camille says, YOU WANT ME TO LASSO THAT
YAK?
OKAY, COOL.
ONE JOB, KARIM, I CAN DO THIS.
A yak slowly wanders away from Camille.
Camille says, WHOA, WHOA!
Camille takes off running after a yak with her lasso.
She throws her lasso as she screams, but the yak gets away. Gantumur laughs as the yak runs off.
Camille says, WHAT?!
Gantumur speaks Mongolian.
Camille says, GANTUMUR, I'LL GET HIM!
I PROMISE!
Camille runs after the yak. Gantumur grins and laughs.
Karim narrates, YES!
I'VE FINALLY FOUND SOMEBODY
ELSE WHO REALISES HOW
RIDICULOUS CAMILLE IS.
Gantumur speaks Mongolian has he walks away with a young girl.
Karim narrates, THE GIRLS' DAY IS NEARLY DONE.
TOMORROW, THEY'LL TEST ALL
THEIR MONGOLIAN SKILLS IN A
SUPER TOUGH RELAY RACE.
BUT BEFORE THEY REST, GESER,
OYUNA AND BILGUUN WANT TO SHOW
THEM A TRADITIONAL WAY OF
PREDICTING THE OUTCOME.
Bilguun, Geser and Oyuna sit at a small table in a Ger with Camille and the girls. Oyuna speaks Mongolian. A person translates for her.
She says, THIS IS
CALLED SHARA.
WE COLLECT THESE ANKLE BONES
FROM SHEEP AND GOATS, CLEAN
THEM UP AND PLAY VARIOUS GAMES
WITH THEM.
Oyuna lines up the dice-like bones.
Karim narrates, DIFFERENT SIDES OF THE
BONE REPRESENT DIFFERENT
ANIMALS.
SOME ARE SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD -
LIKE SHEEP - AND SOME ARE BAD -
LIKE CAMELS.
WHY YOU HATING ON CAMELS?
Camille says, BIT LIKE A MAGIC 8 BALL.
The girls say, YEAH.
Jocelyn asks, WILL I EVER GET GOOD AT
LASSOING?
Jocelyn shakes the bones between her hands.
Camille says, GOOD QUESTION.
Jocelyn rolls the bones like dice onto the table. Bilguun speaks Mongolian. A person translates for him.
Bilguun says, SO,
YOU'VE GOT TWO SHEEP, A GOAT
AND A CAMEL.
A person translates for Oyuna.
She says, BECAUSE
YOU GOT TWO SHEEP, IT MEANS
YES, IT'S POSITIVE.
Camille says, THAT'S GOOD NEWS.
Jocelyn says, YEAH.
Camille asks, THAT MADE YOU A BIT CONFIDENT
FOR TOMORROW?
Jocelyn says, A LITTLE BIT.
Camille says, YEAH?
The other girls giggle.
Camille says, I'VE GOT A QUESTION.
Camille takes the ankle bones and shakes them between her hands.
She asks, WILL THE GIRLS DO WELL AS A TEAM
IN THE BIG RACE TOMORROW?
Camille releases the bones onto the table.
A person translates for Oyuna.
She says, YOU GOT
THREE SHEEP AND A GOAT.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, IT MEANS
THE RESULT IS AVERAGE...
Camille says, OH...
Geser says, ...AND YOU WILL BE BEATEN BY
STRANGERS.
Jocelyn says, THAT'S NOT A GOOD SIGN.
Camille says, THAT'S A TERRIBLE SIGN,
JOCELYN!
Jocelyn laughs.
Camille says, THERE'S ONE MORE QUESTION THOUGH
THAT WE CAN'T ASK THE BONES.
THE ONLY PERSON THAT CAN ANSWER
IT IS GESER.
HAVE YOU MADE YOUR DECISION
ABOUT WHO IS GOING TO BE
TEAM CAPTAIN FOR TOMORROW'S BIG
DAY?
A person translates for Geser.
He says, YES,
I HAVE.
Camille says, HE HAS.
OKAY, WHO IS IT?
Camille drums on the table with her hands.
A person translates for Geser.
He says, NEISHA.
Camille says, NEISHA!
WHOO!
Camille and the other girls clap.
Camilel asks, WHY HAVE YOU CHOSEN, NEISHA?
A person translates for Geser.
He says, I HAVE
SEEN THAT SHE IS VERY CAPABLE
AND ALSO THAT SHE HELPS THE
OTHERS DURING PRACTICE AND
COMPETITION.
Camille says, TOMORROW, YOU WILL BE PLAYING
TOGETHER AS A TEAM AGAINST THE
LOCALS, BUT IT'S GOING TO BE
SUCH A BIG DAY, SO I THINK WE
SHOULD GO GET SOME REST 'CAUSE,
IF WE DON'T, YOU MIGHT NOT PROVE
THOSE BONES WRONG.
(Giggling)
Karim narrates, NEXT TIME, IT'S THE
GIRL'S TEAM'S FINAL DAY IN
MONGOLIA AND THEY'LL HAVE TO
PUT EVERYTHING THEY'VE LEARNED
TO THE TEST.
Camille asks, ARE YOU READY, GIRLS?
Geser speaks in Mongolian and Neisha and a group of kids take off running.
Karim narrates, THEY'LL DIVIDE, AND HOPEFULLY
CONQUER, EACH CHOOSING A
NOMAD SKILL AS PART OF AN
EPIC RELAY RACE AGAINST
THE LOCALS.
Camille cheers, COME ON, NEISHA!
Karim narrates, HOW WILL THEY GET ON, IN
THE FINAL DAY OF THEIR
WEEK TO
BEAT THE WORLD?
