Fun
Transcript
00:00:00This is an example of a video the Lucci Organization
00:00:29produced. In order to convince people they were buying beachfront timeshare
00:00:33units as estate agents played by actors gave live walkthroughs. You think I'm at the
00:00:39beach, but I'm not. This is virtual reality. The video was fake and we have
00:00:46proof. I went undercover as an agent. Didn't I do this story already? Mm-hmm.
00:01:00Twice. They finally gave it to me to do it right. I guess they're running out of
00:01:05conspiracy theories to debunk. I don't have any notes for the closing segment.
00:01:12Probably because you didn't make any notes.
00:01:19You're the best. We're back in five, four, three, two, and...
00:01:29And another scam bites the dust. The Holiday Homes were a con and that's fake
00:01:34checked. And if you are a victim of the Lucci Organization visit the website I
00:01:39created where you can share your story and find useful resources. I'm so glad
00:01:43you created that website. I like to go above and beyond for the people. And
00:01:48you've been doing that for years with everyone. Why they have to break up? They
00:01:56had such great on-screen chemistry and now it's just hard to watch. And thank
00:02:02you Kennedy for proving that time spent with you is never just fun at the beach.
00:02:06Oh, Bo! At least I didn't run scared of the turtle like you did the last time we
00:02:11went on vacation. On that note, remember, always fake check. And we're out.
00:02:22Good job, crew. If you'll excuse us for a minute, I need to talk with Kennedy and
00:02:28Bo. Mindy, what's up? That was horrible. I'm sorry. I thought I was bringing
00:02:36something new to the segment. Not your segment. The show is not the problem. It's
00:02:41the two of you. Mindy, the stories are... The chemistry isn't there anymore. Oh, that
00:02:46must be Kennedy's issue. I mean, I have chemistry with everyone. And that was our
00:02:51problem. And disappearing faster than the chemistry are the viewers. We have to
00:02:57replace one of you. Oh, Kennedy, I'm so sorry. What makes you think it would be
00:03:03me? I actually work. They're not gonna fire me. I have seniority. And I was
00:03:08hosting back when you were just a production assistant. Show me your best
00:03:11work. Whichever of you produces the better segment keeps their job. The other...
00:03:18Produce. Well, may the best man win. Your best work.
00:03:33He stole my heart and broke it. I gave him my best stories. I am NOT letting him
00:03:39take my job away from me, too. I told you he wasn't any good. Sienna, you loved Bo.
00:03:45Okay, like, only for the first couple years. I had so many plans for our future.
00:03:50He just threw them away. Is that chocolate chip? Of course.
00:04:01So you need a great story, right? No. I need an amazing story. What about
00:04:08something everyone thought was extinct? Like love? Love's not extinct. That's where
00:04:12you're wrong. Love is extinct. Listen, my birding group was all on Twitter today.
00:04:18Get it? Twitter. What a hoot. There's this picture going around about an exotic
00:04:25parrot that hasn't been seen in, like, over 40 years. Okay? They thought it was extinct,
00:04:31but now everyone's like, maybe it's still alive. Sienna, how many genuine photos
00:04:37have I proven to be a fake over the years? Starting with the one with Dad? I know. It's
00:04:44your job, and you're really good at it, but some of the photos have been real, right?
00:04:48Rarely. Occasionally. And look at this picture. Isn't it gorgeous? How can you tell? It's so
00:04:58blurry. Okay, so they weren't great photographers. Our discovery of the week.
00:05:07Is the extinct Polson tribrook parrot.
00:05:14If this online photo is real, we need to head straight to St. Lucia, right?
00:05:18Totally. But the original photo has already been taken down.
00:05:21I mean, that's gotta prove it's legit, right? It hasn't been seen in what, half a century?
00:05:26It has to be the Polson parrot. It has the famous fuchsia heart shape on its chest feathers.
00:05:31Well, the St. Lucia Conservation Centre are asking for donations,
00:05:35so I hope you all share and donate. Gotta be a scam.
00:05:40But it's getting traction. Three million views. And it's only been a few days.
00:05:44I really think this is your story. Proving an international viral photo is a fraud.
00:05:50Used by some wildlife centre to tug at people's heartstrings,
00:05:55get into their wallets. That could be a story that could get both the show.
00:06:01Whoa. Extinction extortion exposed. That's the title.
00:06:06I really thought we were going with more of an endearing heartstrings grabbing story of a
00:06:11beautiful bird brought back from extinction.
00:06:14That's ridiculous. But people really want to buy into this.
00:06:18I mean, there's already a website where you can buy parrot t-shirts, mugs, phone covers.
00:06:24I'm going to report on that conservation centre and prove that parrot is extinct.
00:06:30Or maybe you'll see that things thought extinct can come back to life.
00:06:35St. Lucia, here I come.
00:06:54So
00:07:18OK, so we still have a couple of spots to fill for tomorrow's tour.
00:07:21Are you encouraging guests to what?
00:07:25Jake. Hello, Earth to Jake. OK, you know what I was going to tell you?
00:07:28I'm just going to have Ray take over the tours for a while because I think he'll really help
00:07:31with reviews. Oh, hi. Hi.
00:07:34Hi there. Are you checking in?
00:07:36Kennedy Webber.
00:07:37Welcome to Coconut Bay Beach Resort and Spa, Miss Webber.
00:07:40I'm Anne Miners, the reservations manager and wedding coordinator.
00:07:43And this is Jake Harper, our guest experience rep.
00:07:46What brings you to the island?
00:07:47I'm a reporter doing a story about the Polson Tribal Parrot, the bird that's been in the news.
00:07:52Yeah, we've had a few guests ask about that.
00:07:54So have you found anything out yet? Do you know where it is?
00:07:56I was going to ask you the same thing.
00:07:58Know who posted the photo online?
00:08:00No. No, it's a mystery.
00:08:04But I think they've they've taken it down, right?
00:08:06Yes, which is even more suspicious.
00:08:09Suspicious.
00:08:11So, Kennedy, right, we have the best island tour for you.
00:08:15And I think you're really going to love it.
00:08:17It's the catamarans, the pitons, the jungle.
00:08:20Our new tour guide is very knowledgeable.
00:08:23Sounds like a quick way to get footage of the island.
00:08:25Sign me up.
00:08:26Perfect.
00:08:28OK, now, before you get settled in, let me show you around.
00:08:31And I'll follow you straight to your room with your bags.
00:08:35But, you know, look, not in a stalker's way.
00:08:37I'm just I'm going to know I'm saying I'm going to get the bags and follow you.
00:08:40And I'm going to drop them off.
00:08:41I'm not going to, like, watch you do your thing the whole day.
00:08:44And so just I'm going to I'll get your bags.
00:08:56Rosemary.
00:09:01Yeah, I'm here.
00:09:03No, I haven't found the iguana yet.
00:09:05But Rosemary's not going to hurt anyone.
00:09:08Yes, I know about their guest complaints, but she just likes meeting new people.
00:09:12And through there, we have our gym and sanctuary spa.
00:09:16I don't think I'll have time for the spa.
00:09:19We have amazing new local organic treatments like our cocoa scrub
00:09:23grown on a plantation right here on the island.
00:09:26I don't expect to be here long.
00:09:28Well, if you need anything at all, I'll be here.
00:09:31Well, please, if you hear anything about the parrot, let me know.
00:09:34Of course.
00:09:43Oh, no.
00:10:03Ah, your chivalry is dead.
00:10:10I cannot believe this.
00:10:11We will get your dress dry cleaned immediately.
00:10:14It's fine.
00:10:15Really, it's fine.
00:10:17It's not your fault.
00:10:19It's his.
00:10:21Yeah, sorry about that.
00:10:23Look, I'm sorry you fell in the pool, but you're the one who scared Rosemary.
00:10:28Rosemary?
00:10:29That dragon?
00:10:31It's not a dragon.
00:10:33It's a St. Lucian iguana.
00:10:34OK, Kennedy, please.
00:10:36How can we make this up to you?
00:10:37It's fine.
00:10:38Really fine.
00:10:39Just my favorite shoes shrinking by the second.
00:10:42You know, I just got to get back to work.
00:10:44So if you would excuse me.
00:10:53What was that for?
00:10:54You are never going to get a date if you keep acting like that.
00:10:57Look, I had to save Rosemary.
00:11:00You left her in a pool.
00:11:10OK, I guess I am better with animals than I am with women.
00:11:16Well, you sure couldn't be any worse.
00:11:33Hello?
00:11:35Mom!
00:11:36Mom!
00:11:38Hello!
00:11:39Hello?
00:11:41Mom!
00:11:42Hello?
00:11:44Hello?
00:11:46Hello?
00:11:47Hello?
00:11:48Hello?
00:11:49Hello?
00:11:50Hello?
00:11:53You!
00:11:54Dragon guy!
00:11:55Wasn't expecting to see you again so soon.
00:11:57I was hoping to talk to someone about the Polson tribe of Parrot.
00:12:01OK.
00:12:03Well, it's about the photo that's been in the news.
00:12:05Oh, it's not real.
00:12:07Oh, you think it's a fake too?
00:12:09It's not a picture of the Polson tribe.
00:12:12OK.
00:12:14I had a couple of questions.
00:12:15Nope, no interview.
00:12:22The center has been getting a lot of money since the news went viral.
00:12:25We had nothing to do with that photo.
00:12:27It's quite convenient.
00:12:28You've had a record amount of donations.
00:12:30Oh, so what you're saying is that these animals don't deserve people's goodwill to help them?
00:12:34No, no, that's not what I'm saying.
00:12:37Look, people saw the photo and want to help out other rare animals on the island.
00:12:41Like Max here.
00:12:44He's a endemic parrot that I rescued as a chick.
00:12:47So we'll use those donations to help out his rehabilitation because he can't go back into the wild.
00:12:52That's lovely.
00:12:53You know, I didn't mean the center.
00:12:54It's just some organizations aren't the charitable operations they present online.
00:12:59Right.
00:13:00So, do you have all the evidence you need now?
00:13:03Are we done?
00:13:04Do you agree there's no way this parrot could have possibly been rediscovered after all these years?
00:13:10Look, I've worked with rare birds for the last 10 years.
00:13:14I've never come across them.
00:13:15But interest in it makes people want to donate.
00:13:18So we'll use that money to help save other animals from suffering the same fate as that parrot.
00:13:22So you'd like to see this myth go on and on?
00:13:24No, not at all.
00:13:26Tourists traveling over natural habitats looking for some miracle bird puts other breeds in jeopardy.
00:13:32Are you filming me?
00:13:34If you can help prove this photo's a fake,
00:13:36I can stop unwanted traffic and help emphasize the importance of animals that can be protected.
00:13:43Just agree to an official interview and I'll go away.
00:13:46Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:13:48Come on, you've got a Facebook camera.
00:13:49It'll only take a minute.
00:13:51Oh, aren't you the sweet talker?
00:13:52But no can do.
00:13:55Do you know who took the picture?
00:13:56Look, I don't want to be rude, but I've got an island tour to lead.
00:13:59So if you'll excuse me.
00:14:01Uh, I also have a catamaran tour to get to, but maybe we can talk later?
00:14:05130 Friars Dock?
00:14:08I hear the tour guide is very knowledgeable.
00:14:11I'll try not to disappoint.
00:14:25Kennedy, hey.
00:14:26Hi.
00:14:27I'm really excited and I'm going to make sure this tour is extra special for you today, okay?
00:14:31Thanks.
00:14:32We really need Ray to check over the boat before we can set sail.
00:14:35Right.
00:14:36Uh, hope you brought your bathing suit today, just in case you fall in the water.
00:14:41That depends.
00:14:42Did you bring your dragon?
00:14:43It's not a dragon.
00:14:44It's a St. Lucian iguana.
00:14:45And no, Rosemary will not be joining us today.
00:14:49It was a joke.
00:14:51Not very funny.
00:14:55Okay, all right.
00:15:00So, um, do you know the bird?
00:15:30Was named after an ornithologist?
00:15:33Yeah, that's, um, that's like a, like a bird guy, right?
00:15:36And he first discovered it in 1776.
00:15:39Isn't that so?
00:15:41Yeah.
00:15:41He discovered it near three brooks that all converge together.
00:15:45That's, that's why, you know, it's named, um, you know, Tribrook.
00:15:48Tribrook.
00:15:49Yeah.
00:15:55Madam?
00:15:58Thank you?
00:15:59It's from my website.
00:16:03So you own the website with all the souvenirs?
00:16:06Uh-huh.
00:16:06Look, designed it all myself.
00:16:08Great.
00:16:09Yeah.
00:16:10I guess the sudden news the bird has been rediscovered must be good for business.
00:16:15Oh, no, no, no.
00:16:16I, no, no.
00:16:18Listen, I had nothing to do with the post or the photo, right?
00:16:21I'm just an entrepreneur who saw an opportunity to sell my own designs, right?
00:16:26Might want to get your camera ready for this one.
00:16:28Ladies and gentlemen, the Patons of St. Lucia.
00:16:58The gross and petite Patons are dormant volcanoes.
00:17:02The rich volcanic soil allows for some unique flowers to grow there.
00:17:05As you know, St. Lucia has several distinct areas for vegetation.
00:17:10Some trees growing on the Patons cannot be found anywhere else on the island.
00:17:24Watch your step there.
00:17:26There you go.
00:17:26Good job.
00:17:28Oh, there you are.
00:17:29Oh, be careful now.
00:17:30There you go.
00:17:31You got it, sir.
00:17:33Enjoy the tour.
00:17:34It was educational.
00:17:35Yeah.
00:17:37See, I would have caught you if you fell in the water this time.
00:17:41Okay?
00:17:43Yeah.
00:17:45Are you okay?
00:17:46Easy with the gas liners.
00:17:47What are you?
00:17:50It's okay.
00:17:51Sorry about that.
00:17:52So listen, please keep this on you at all times.
00:17:54What's that?
00:17:55This is GPS.
00:17:56All right, just in case you get lost in the jungle.
00:17:58I mean, look, no one ever does, but, you know, it's the first time for everything.
00:18:02Good to know.
00:18:02All right.
00:18:03Let's go.
00:18:03Hey, good seeing you.
00:18:06Well, everybody's got their GPS units now.
00:18:09You okay?
00:18:21We have lots of cashew trees back in here.
00:18:24Some days you might see Tarzan swinging through the jungle back here with all these vines.
00:18:30So, uh, will your, um, boyfriend be joining you on this trip at all?
00:18:36There's no boyfriend.
00:18:38And although we're a small island, we have a large animal population,
00:18:43around 2,000 native species, and about 10% of that can't be found anywhere else in the world.
00:18:48Does that include those extinct?
00:18:50A completely different list.
00:18:52Kennedy?
00:18:54Excuse me.
00:18:54Um, just wait.
00:18:55I'm saying just wait right up there.
00:18:56Yeah.
00:18:57Jake, do me a favor.
00:18:58Just lead the rest of the group up the trail.
00:19:00I'll be right back.
00:19:00Okay.
00:19:07Kennedy?
00:19:10Kennedy?
00:19:19Kennedy, stop where you're at.
00:19:21Don't move.
00:19:23Don't move.
00:19:33St. Lucian boa is the largest and rarest subspecies on the island,
00:19:37and we're protecting it with our conservation efforts.
00:19:40It's not venomous or aggressive.
00:19:43So you're totally safe.
00:19:45Just stay very, very still.
00:19:47She's beautiful, huh?
00:19:54Yeah.
00:19:55Okay.
00:19:57Not a snake man?
00:19:59No.
00:20:00I came face to face with a snake at my grandparents' farm.
00:20:03I was expecting her, Jake.
00:20:08We should probably get back to the group.
00:20:10St. Lucian is one of the most mountainous islands in the Caribbean.
00:20:14Combined with all the rain we get during the wet season, we have an abundance of waterfalls.
00:20:19Hope you brought your bathing suit, because you're welcome to get in and enjoy.
00:20:24Come on. It'll be fun.
00:20:25Hey, sis. How's it going?
00:20:27Is that a waterfall?
00:20:29Are you going in?
00:20:30No. I can't right now.
00:20:32Seriously?
00:20:33Oh, please.
00:20:34It sounds like Ray.
00:20:35Ray?
00:20:36Who's Ray? Did you meet a guy?
00:20:38I'm on international roaming.
00:20:41So, you're going to hate me, Vanessa?
00:20:42I'm on international roaming.
00:20:44I'm not going in.
00:20:45I'm not going in.
00:20:46No, you can't.
00:20:46I'm not going in.
00:20:47I'm going in.
00:20:47You can't.
00:20:49I'm not going in.
00:20:50You can't.
00:20:51You can't.
00:20:51I'm not going in.
00:20:52I'm not going in.
00:20:53You can't.
00:20:54I'm not going in.
00:20:54I can't afford a conversation about my love life.
00:20:57Now, can you get in touch with your bird-watching contacts
00:20:59and find out anything you can about the photo?
00:21:02Who posted it? Where? When? How?
00:21:05Can you do that for me, please?
00:21:08Sure, I'm on it.
00:21:10So, which one of the hotties is Ray?
00:21:14It's not that guy, is it?
00:21:17Look, I gotta go, but let me know if you find out anything, okay?
00:21:21Bye.
00:21:22Wait, wait, wait!
00:21:24Ray.
00:21:26Renedy? Ray.
00:21:28Renedy.
00:21:30Ray.
00:21:32Renedy.
00:21:34The sulfur spring is up there.
00:21:36Actually, that's a sulfur mountain.
00:21:41Okay.
00:21:44Okay.
00:21:46Who's next?
00:21:48The view is amazing going down.
00:21:50Oh, no. I'm not zip-lining.
00:21:53Well, it's a long walk back.
00:21:56You'll enjoy it, I promise.
00:21:58Oh, Ray, you know that bird picture everyone's talking about?
00:22:01Where we see the parrot up here?
00:22:03I'm afraid not, Mildred.
00:22:05I'm not sure that species still exists.
00:22:07But there are many other rare and exotic animals on this island
00:22:09that could use your support.
00:22:11Thank you for the work that you do.
00:22:13I'm donating as soon as I get home.
00:22:15Well, we welcome all support for local conservation work.
00:22:17Wonderful.
00:22:19See you at the bottom, Jake.
00:22:23All set. Off you go.
00:22:27Whoo-hoo!
00:22:29Whoo-hoo!
00:22:31Okay. Bye, Jake.
00:22:33Yes.
00:22:35Whoo-hoo!
00:22:37You ready?
00:22:39Let's get you hooked up.
00:22:43Okay.
00:22:45Let me tell you something before you go.
00:22:47Remember to open your eyes.
00:22:50You'll thank me later.
00:22:52Whoo-hoo!
00:22:54Whoo-hoo!
00:22:56Whoo-hoo!
00:22:58Whoo-hoo!
00:23:00Whoo-hoo!
00:23:02Whoo-hoo!
00:23:04Whoo-hoo!
00:23:06Whoo-hoo!
00:23:09Whoo-hoo!
00:23:11Whoo-hoo!
00:23:21That was incredible.
00:23:23I'm telling you.
00:23:25This island has a lot to offer if you just give it a chance.
00:23:27We just have to do that.
00:23:29All right, listen up, everyone.
00:23:31Please turn in your GPS units to me.
00:23:35Good job, Jake.
00:23:37If anybody wants to buy...
00:23:39Boom!
00:23:41Stylish hat designed by yours truly.
00:23:43Check it out.
00:23:45Talk to me at the resort.
00:23:47Designed it all myself.
00:23:49I am a designer.
00:23:51Look at this stylish T-shirt.
00:23:54Dinner's all set.
00:23:56Thanks.
00:23:58Oh, hey, do you know how to get to the tribrook,
00:24:00the place where the bird was first seen?
00:24:02I can't seem to find anything about it online.
00:24:05You won't find the parrot there.
00:24:07It's a crucial part of the story.
00:24:10If it'll help, Ray could take you.
00:24:13I don't think so.
00:24:15I don't think so.
00:24:17I don't think so.
00:24:19I don't think so.
00:24:21Do you think Ray could take you?
00:24:24Oh, no, I wouldn't want to bother him.
00:24:27I'm sure he's busy.
00:24:29Okay.
00:24:31But he does know how to avoid the tarantulas
00:24:34and poisonous centipedes you might encounter.
00:24:37Tarantulas?
00:24:39I guess it wouldn't hurt to ask if he's around.
00:24:44You know, he might be free.
00:24:52Oh, look.
00:25:13Hey, look over there.
00:25:17It's a dragon.
00:25:19It's not a dragon.
00:25:21This is the St. Lucien iguana.
00:25:24And you're sure we won't find the parrots at tribrook?
00:25:28I've closely monitored the site.
00:25:30They're not there.
00:25:32Seems like you're making a lot of effort for this story.
00:25:35I need something really compelling
00:25:38to win this competition at work.
00:25:41Must be a nice prize to get you all the way down here.
00:25:44I get to keep my job?
00:25:47My ex and I are co-hosts of this show called The Fake Checkers.
00:25:51And it's not the best working relationship.
00:25:54They're going to get rid of one of us,
00:25:56so I really need to hit it out of the park with this story.
00:26:00Job's that important, huh?
00:26:02It's all I've got right now.
00:26:04I like doing stories that help protect people.
00:26:08Save them from scammers and fraud.
00:26:12It's quite the unusual job you have.
00:26:16A fake picture lost my dad his re-election for mayor.
00:26:20A photo showed him butting up to a developer
00:26:23everyone knew was a crook and we swore to stop.
00:26:26Broke his heart that people thought he was corrupt.
00:26:29But the opposition had pictures.
00:26:31They were fake, obviously.
00:26:34But people didn't know that or believe that at the time.
00:26:38My dad was a great mayor.
00:26:40He did a lot for the city.
00:26:43And all of that was forgotten because of one photo.
00:26:48I eventually proved it was a fake,
00:26:52but by then it was too late.
00:26:56This is Tribrook?
00:26:59Where are the brooks?
00:27:01They dried up a long time ago.
00:27:03Three streams, just right up.
00:27:06Oh, the ecosystem changes.
00:27:09Like, what?
00:27:11Like, what?
00:27:13Like, what?
00:27:15Like, what?
00:27:17Like, what?
00:27:19Like, what?
00:27:21Like, what?
00:27:24Like, these birds adapted to changes in vegetation.
00:27:30The post-Tribrook parrot didn't,
00:27:31which explains why they probably went extinct.
00:27:34They could have migrated elsewhere?
00:27:36I don't think that's the case.
00:27:39There's a myth about the parrot that had it hunted into extinction
00:27:41by believers decades ago.
00:27:44What's the myth?
00:27:45Look, we have real animals in need.
00:27:47For example the St. Lucian parrot
00:27:49was on the verge of extinction
00:27:50until our conservation efforts kicked in.
00:27:52Now the numbers are increasing each year.
00:27:55And that goes for forests, too.
00:27:57There were less than a hundred pencil cedar trees until a few years ago.
00:28:00Well, if you agree to an interview, I could tell the world about your work.
00:28:04Nope, no interview.
00:28:05Why not? It could help with donations.
00:28:07I just think I'd do more harm than good in front of that camera.
00:28:12I guess I'll have to wait to interview the parrot.
00:28:23Every time I do one of these stories, I think maybe this is the one.
00:28:28But then I start looking into it, and it's always disappointing.
00:28:34But let's be real.
00:28:36Things don't just come back to life. That's a fantasy.
00:28:40Well, you're in a living fantasy right now.
00:28:46Say, uh, do you need to get back right away?
00:28:49Hmm?
00:28:50Do you need to get back right away?
00:28:54We're supposed to be working.
00:28:56Well, work can wait.
00:29:20Stingrays! Stingrays!
00:29:47It's okay, all right?
00:29:48Just stay calm.
00:29:50They're in their natural habitat, and we're the ones invading them, see?
00:29:53So if you just relax, everything will be fine.
00:29:56Just allow them to swim around you.
00:30:00You're doing great.
00:30:01I'm putting my hands down.
00:30:05Ah!
00:30:09Amazing, huh?
00:30:12I didn't realize how much I needed this.
00:30:19I couldn't believe you were that great of a swimmer.
00:30:33I thought the stingray would feel a lot rougher.
00:30:37You know, well, that was surprising that you did that.
00:30:40I surprised myself.
00:30:42Oh, you two look like you've been having fun.
00:30:46You working hard?
00:30:47Oh, me? I'm having a great day preparing another wedding.
00:30:49Well, soon you'll be doing that for yourself.
00:30:51Oh, I never get the time.
00:30:53It is wedding season all year round here.
00:30:55You're engaged?
00:31:00He actually proposed right here on the beach.
00:31:03But I've been so busy, we haven't even gotten around to setting a date.
00:31:06So whose wedding are you planning?
00:31:08Oh, it is for a VIP guest.
00:31:11All top secret.
00:31:12You know what these celebrity weddings are.
00:31:14They don't give you any details so that there aren't any press leaks.
00:31:18Excuse me.
00:31:20No, that's not going to work.
00:31:22But, thank you, they did say spare no expense.
00:31:26So I'm creating my own little dream wedding.
00:31:30So how was your day?
00:31:32I touched a stingray.
00:31:34Oh, weren't you scared?
00:31:36Not Kennedy.
00:31:39Ooh.
00:31:41Are you trying to impress a certain someone with a special tour of the island, Ray?
00:31:47So, how did you two end up in St. Lucia?
00:31:50Well, Ray always wanted to work in conservation in the Caribbean.
00:31:53But after our parents passed, he didn't want to leave me alone in the States.
00:31:58So, I suggested we both move down.
00:32:02Well, really, I was just tired of shoveling snow in Syracuse.
00:32:05Figured I would shovel sand in St. Lucia.
00:32:08My dad always said family's what matters most.
00:32:11Well, your dad sounds like a good man.
00:32:13Kind of remind me of him in a way.
00:32:15Where you use science to make a difference.
00:32:18He used the government.
00:32:20My dad was mayor of Albany County.
00:32:23Mayor James Weber.
00:32:25You used to talk about him.
00:32:26Yeah, he was really influential in the small city environmental movement.
00:32:31How cool.
00:32:33You're Mayor Weber's daughter.
00:32:35Uh, well, I should get back.
00:32:38Max gets pretty vocal when his dinner's late.
00:32:41Well, thanks for today. I really enjoyed it.
00:32:45No problem.
00:32:49Bye.
00:32:55I had a good time, too.
00:33:02You like her.
00:33:06She's growing on me.
00:33:13Ray seems genuine.
00:33:15The Conservation Center is doing great work.
00:33:19Maybe the bird is real.
00:33:22I'm so glad you created that website.
00:33:24And thank you, Kennedy, for proving that time spent with you is never just fun at the beach.
00:33:29Oh, oh. At least I didn't run scared.
00:33:48Good morning, Sienna.
00:33:50Hey, I got a lead on who uploaded the picture.
00:33:53The buzz going around is that the picture came from a local on the island with the last name of Miners.
00:33:58Miners? How'd you know?
00:34:01I got a screenshot of the original post. You can just make it out in the corner.
00:34:05Anne Miners.
00:34:07Anne?
00:34:09Um, can you send me that?
00:34:11Sure.
00:34:15I didn't mean to deceive you.
00:34:17Ray was so upset when I posted the picture.
00:34:19I took it down as soon as he told me the damage it could do.
00:34:21But by then, people were sharing and talking about it.
00:34:24So he had nothing to do with posting it.
00:34:26Or Jake's website?
00:34:28No, and he really didn't even want Jake to make the site.
00:34:31He thinks it brings unwanted attention.
00:34:34I'm sorry, Kennedy.
00:34:36I just wanted to see if any other bird watchers thought it was real.
00:34:40So where did the photo come from then?
00:34:42A couple. The Sawyers? Honeymooning here at the resort.
00:34:45They took the photo, but they couldn't identify it with any of the birds in any of their bird watching apps.
00:34:50I showed the photo to Ray, and he said the feather pattern matched the Polson tribrook parrot, but that the bird was extinct.
00:34:58I really wanted to believe they'd come back, because if they're real, Ray'd be the perfect person to protect them.
00:35:08I need to talk with that couple.
00:35:10They left. Ray rang them to try and find out what trail they were on, but he couldn't find anything.
00:35:16Oh, you could talk to the locals that had the last confirmed sighting 40 years ago.
00:35:21Maybe they can help with the film.
00:35:23They're still around?
00:35:24Oh, yeah. Teresa Sheet officiates all of our weddings, and they live right nearby.
00:35:28That could be helpful. I'd like to get their take on the picture.
00:35:32Thank you, Anne.
00:35:33Of course.
00:35:41Thanks.
00:35:43Well, I figured we could go off the beaten path.
00:35:50Listen, I didn't mean to lie to you about my sister.
00:35:53I just didn't want her being linked to your story, as their intentions were good.
00:35:57She's an eternal optimist.
00:36:01It's okay.
00:36:03And I appreciate you taking me to see the couple.
00:36:06Well, it's the least I could do.
00:36:10Shall we?
00:36:11Okay.
00:36:28How far?
00:36:30Oh, just a little ways.
00:36:32Thanks.
00:36:41We saw the beautiful creature while on a hike.
00:36:43The first one we took after getting engaged.
00:36:46We used to hike the island all the time in those days.
00:36:51Yeah, we kind of don't anymore.
00:36:53Now we watch the beauty right here from our porch.
00:36:57Well, how did you know it was the Polson Tribrook Parrot?
00:37:01It's beautiful fuchsia heart shape on its chest feathers.
00:37:05But most of all, it's calm.
00:37:07It's very distinctive.
00:37:09I could make it for you if you like.
00:37:12Please.
00:37:15When you're ready.
00:37:23Amazing. Thank you.
00:37:25Now, do you think the bird is extinct?
00:37:28Oh, no.
00:37:29Really?
00:37:30You know about the legend, right?
00:37:34The Polson Tribrook Parrot will remain as difficult to find as true love.
00:37:40And only those who found true love will ever find the bird.
00:37:50The heart-shaped feathers are a local symbol for love.
00:37:54It's why we use fuchsia flowers in our wedding ceremonies.
00:37:58But the photo could still be a fake.
00:38:01I can show you.
00:38:02I took a picture of a St. Lucia Parrot.
00:38:06And, look.
00:38:10When you add some motion blur,
00:38:13change the color hue,
00:38:17and then when we compare,
00:38:21you see the picture of the Polson Tribrook Parrot could be easily recreated.
00:38:25There hasn't been a sighting in nearly half a century.
00:38:28But you still think the bird is alive?
00:38:30I just think there aren't as many couples around who have found true love.
00:38:36So they can't find the bird.
00:38:38But you said you went to Tribrook and Descartes, but that's not where we found them.
00:38:46I could show you if you like.
00:38:48Okay, so.
00:38:50You guys go here.
00:38:51Go here.
00:38:53This area.
00:38:55This area.
00:39:10You're still skeptical?
00:39:13I mean, true love?
00:39:16Aren't you?
00:39:18Yeah, right.
00:39:20At the rate you're going, we're never going to see another lifetime.
00:39:24Someone's in a rush.
00:39:35Are you alright?
00:39:40That's what I get for trying to keep an eye on you.
00:39:47Wait.
00:39:54Does this look familiar to you?
00:40:15What's that?
00:40:23It's a bird trap.
00:40:25Poachers were here.
00:40:28You don't think they're trying to capture the parrot?
00:40:32Ours or any other rare exotic bird on the island, they bring back a big payday as pets in the black market.
00:40:37That's horrible.
00:40:39This is where I was afraid would happen.
00:40:42You can't protect an area based on a myth.
00:40:44If the parrot does exist, we need to find it before anyone else does.
00:40:49So you believe it now?
00:40:51Someone does.
00:40:54Let's get out of here in case they see us down here.
00:41:14Hey, hey guys!
00:41:15Anne!
00:41:16What you got?
00:41:17Hey, hey! You guys, look what I found.
00:41:19A bird.
00:41:20The black-browed babbler has been found in Indonesia after being missing for 170 years.
00:41:26See?
00:41:28Things can unexpectedly reappear.
00:41:30And speaking of unexpected, you see that couple over there?
00:41:34They're the honeymooners who took the original photo.
00:41:37Yeah.
00:41:38Let's go talk to them!
00:41:39Okay, right.
00:41:41Right, right, right, right.
00:41:42Check it out.
00:41:43Super legit, right?
00:41:44Super legit, right?
00:41:48It's definitely the Bolsan tribrook parrot.
00:41:50Flew right over us.
00:41:52I took that still from the video if you'd like to see it.
00:41:55Yeah.
00:41:56Yeah.
00:41:57Bye.
00:42:06Doesn't look like any bird I've seen on the island.
00:42:09It's incredible.
00:42:10It's 100% real.
00:42:12Why did you come back?
00:42:14Jake, the guest experience guy, yeah, he contacted us.
00:42:18He said that we'd won the lovebird special.
00:42:23Do you know anything about this?
00:42:25Uh, no, I've never heard of that before.
00:42:29You said you were on the Descartier Trail, but I didn't have any luck there.
00:42:33Could you show us where you were at when you took that video?
00:42:37Yeah, sure.
00:42:38Uh...
00:42:41We were right about...
00:42:44here.
00:42:49You up for an adventure?
00:43:07These views are stunning.
00:43:10That's what I love about this island.
00:43:12It never gets old.
00:43:15So what do you think about the sauners?
00:43:17They seem genuine.
00:43:19And their video, too.
00:43:22So you believe that that bird is still alive out there, too, huh?
00:43:27Wouldn't it be amazing?
00:43:29The odds are against it.
00:43:31My scientific mind says that it can't be.
00:43:33What does your heart say?
00:43:35I haven't listened to that in years.
00:43:37It'd get me in trouble.
00:43:39Well, maybe that's not a problem.
00:43:41It only appears to believers of true love.
00:44:03You better slow down. You're going to wear yourself out.
00:44:06No way. I've been hit in the gym.
00:44:07I can share my exercise routine with you.
00:44:10Oh, your exercise routine.
00:44:12I've got the whole island exercising.
00:44:14Does beat the treadmill.
00:44:22Jake, what are you doing here, bud?
00:44:29Hey, guys, hey.
00:44:31Probably the same as you.
00:44:33Trying to get a lucky glimpse of our mysterious friend.
00:44:35Did you get the sauners to bring you here?
00:44:38Yeah, yeah, they previously said it was in this area,
00:44:41but, you know, no one's ever seen it.
00:44:43So I thought I'd bring them back out to retrace their steps,
00:44:46but, you know, this is the area they brought me.
00:44:48I know how important finding the parrot is to you,
00:44:51so I thought I'd help.
00:44:53Have you seen it?
00:44:55No. Four hours, nothing.
00:44:58The tribrook is not here.
00:45:01I told you to leave these birds alone, Jake.
00:45:03These areas are protected.
00:45:05Yeah, but this would be great for St. Lucia.
00:45:07Besides, if you don't believe they're back,
00:45:09why are you out here scurrying around?
00:45:11Just sell your T-shirts, Jake.
00:45:13Let us see if the sauners were right.
00:45:15All right, all right, all right, I'll head back.
00:45:17I'll sell my T-shirts.
00:45:22That was weird.
00:45:24I know.
00:45:26Jake's never been interested in conservation work before this.
00:45:29Isn't it a good thing that this photo is getting people interested
00:45:32in protecting endangered species?
00:45:34Yeah, but even well-intentioned supporters
00:45:36can do more harm than good
00:45:38if a conservation strategy isn't in place first.
00:45:40Wilderness without wildlife is just scenery.
00:45:43Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:45:45No, I wasn't recording.
00:45:47I wasn't recording.
00:45:53We should probably look around.
00:45:56Yeah.
00:45:58Come on.
00:46:02No more filming me.
00:46:22I was really starting to think that maybe...
00:46:33You know when I told you that I'd heard of your father?
00:46:37Turns out he was actually a founder
00:46:39of the Wildlife and Conservation Board
00:46:41for small cities that I now serve on.
00:46:44No way.
00:46:46Yeah.
00:46:48Small world.
00:46:51I, uh...
00:46:53I read a lot of his reports
00:46:55and he was way ahead of his time.
00:46:57We're actually losing a lot of his research today.
00:47:00Thanks, Ray.
00:47:03Well, we better head back.
00:47:06Before we go.
00:47:08Yeah.
00:47:10How about a little memento?
00:47:12Uh...
00:47:14Come on.
00:47:16Okay.
00:47:18Okay.
00:47:30I really wanted this one to be true.
00:47:33Did my cynical mind go wrong?
00:47:37I don't think you're cynical.
00:47:40Thanks.
00:47:42Ray!
00:47:44I'm getting married!
00:47:47Congratulations!
00:47:49Aren't you already engaged?
00:47:51Yes, the wedding I was planning for tomorrow.
00:47:53It's for me.
00:47:55Mike set it all up.
00:47:57Good work, man.
00:47:59I am so excited.
00:48:01I mean, I'm in shock, but...
00:48:03Kennedy! You have to come.
00:48:05Oh, no, don't feel you have to.
00:48:07I don't want to intrude.
00:48:09You're not intruding?
00:48:11Oh, my God, Ray!
00:48:13You need a plus one for tomorrow.
00:48:15Help with the nerves.
00:48:17Remember what you promised?
00:48:19How could I forget?
00:48:21You're giving a speech?
00:48:23Well, something like that.
00:48:25And you have to come.
00:48:27No one likes to go to a wedding alone.
00:48:29Uh, I would love to,
00:48:31but I don't have anything suitable to wear.
00:48:33Oh, I will sort you out.
00:48:35Okay, well,
00:48:37any chance to get out of these boots for a day?
00:48:39Oh, you two must be starving.
00:48:42Go and grab some food
00:48:44from the Caribbean night buffet before it all goes.
00:48:46Yeah, I've definitely worked up an appetite.
00:48:48Unless you've seen enough of me for one day.
00:48:50No, no, not at all.
00:48:52I just dropped my bag off in my room
00:48:54and I'll be right back.
00:48:56All right.
00:48:58You guys must be so excited.
00:49:00So happy for you.
00:49:02I can't wait to hear it.
00:49:28This is amazing.
00:49:30Oh, I hope you don't mind,
00:49:32but it's a liberty of getting us some food.
00:49:34Do you like fried plantains?
00:49:36Never had it before.
00:49:38You should try them.
00:49:40Okay.
00:49:41They're my favorite.
00:49:43All right.
00:49:45Give it a try.
00:49:47Mmm.
00:49:49Mmm.
00:49:51Mmm.
00:49:53Mmm.
00:49:55Mmm.
00:49:57Mmm.
00:49:59Delicious.
00:50:01You know,
00:50:03I live in a city with all kinds of restaurants,
00:50:05but the food here,
00:50:07better than anywhere else.
00:50:09Well, I think that's because
00:50:11they would say it was made with love.
00:50:13Looks like love's all over the island, then.
00:50:16Very well may be.
00:50:21So, I gotta ask.
00:50:24How long were you with your ex?
00:50:25Too long.
00:50:27Three years.
00:50:29What happened?
00:50:31I think he was always waiting
00:50:33for someone better to come along,
00:50:35and I just didn't see it at the time.
00:50:37You know,
00:50:39with our fast-paced lives,
00:50:41we often miss something amazing.
00:50:43Being out here in nature,
00:50:45it taught me patience.
00:50:47You know,
00:50:49waiting hours on end,
00:50:51quietly, for an animal
00:50:53to be in its natural habitat.
00:50:55It's worth every time
00:50:57for just one bleeding glimpse.
00:50:59It's worth it.
00:51:01Every time.
00:51:03Sweet.
00:51:05But I also focus too much on work.
00:51:07What was that?
00:51:09I work too much.
00:51:11Oh, you're a workaholic.
00:51:13Yes.
00:51:15That's why you don't have the time to enjoy yourself.
00:51:17I'm enjoying myself right now.
00:51:20What are they doing over there?
00:51:22Uh, that
00:51:23is the Lakame,
00:51:25traditional St. Lucian dance.
00:51:28You want to give it a try?
00:51:31Okay!
00:51:53Oh, my gosh!
00:52:24She's all set.
00:52:26She looks stunning.
00:52:28I just still can't believe
00:52:30Mike got Anne to plan her own wedding
00:52:32and it'll still be a surprise.
00:52:34Yeah, he figured that
00:52:36she wouldn't go all out
00:52:38if she knew it was for her.
00:52:40You know, she plans these beautiful events
00:52:42for her own wedding,
00:52:44and it's always a surprise.
00:52:46Yeah.
00:52:48I mean,
00:52:50it's always a surprise.
00:52:51It's always a surprise for her.
00:52:53You know, she plans these beautiful experiences
00:52:55for everyone else.
00:52:57He just wanted her to have that for her own wedding.
00:52:59This way she couldn't find excuses
00:53:01to put anyone else first.
00:53:03She seems so excited.
00:53:09I'll see you after.
00:53:22I'll see you after.
00:53:35Abby?
00:53:52Mom and Dad will be proud.
00:53:58I love you.
00:54:03All right, get up there.
00:54:05You're going to make me cry.
00:54:07Okay.
00:54:10Hello, world.
00:54:11Wake me up.
00:54:13Wake me up.
00:54:15Wake me up.
00:54:17Wake me up.
00:54:19Wake me up.
00:54:21Wake me up.
00:54:23Wake me up.
00:54:50I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:54:52You may now kiss the bride.
00:55:10Too many people go through life
00:55:12without love.
00:55:15But here we are.
00:55:17So, if you could raise a glass
00:55:19to Mr.
00:55:20and Mrs. Blessinger.
00:55:22I love you.
00:55:33When we were little,
00:55:35we used to sit around the house and sing songs.
00:55:37Ann made me promise
00:55:39that I would sing at her wedding one day.
00:55:42I agreed.
00:55:44Never thinking that day would happen,
00:55:46but here we are.
00:55:47So,
00:55:49to keep my word
00:55:52and to let Ann know
00:55:54just how much she means to me.
00:56:18What was running through my mind
00:56:22Couldn't help but notice me
00:56:27Staring with that awkward smile
00:56:31From the other side of Thompson Street
00:56:36I felt love for a little while
00:56:40Cause it looks beautiful
00:56:45In the sunset glow
00:56:48In that sunset glow
00:56:51You look more beautiful
00:56:55Than anyone I know
00:56:57Than anyone I know
00:57:01When I asked you told me yes
00:57:05To be mine forevermore
00:57:10All I can offer is my best
00:57:14Through the good and bad
00:57:15Through rich and poor
00:57:19You look more beautiful
00:57:23Than anyone I know
00:57:29You look beautiful
00:57:33So beautiful
00:57:46There is a lot more to him
00:57:48than he first lets on.
00:57:50He spends so much time talking to Max,
00:57:52I thought he forgot how to talk to girls,
00:57:54to be honest, but...
00:57:56I'd never guess he could sing.
00:57:58Ray is full of surprises.
00:58:00Enjoy your night.
00:58:12May I have this dance?
00:58:14Mr. Miners,
00:58:16I can't understand
00:58:18why you don't want to be on camera.
00:58:23Okay.
00:58:25When I was in college,
00:58:27I was part of a conservation club.
00:58:29It's not as nerdy as it sounds.
00:58:31I'm not judging.
00:58:33Actually, it's every bit
00:58:35as nerdy as it sounds.
00:58:37I made this plan
00:58:39to save the rare piping clover
00:58:40nesting near Lake Ontario.
00:58:42Of course you did.
00:58:44Well, we needed money
00:58:46for the plan to work.
00:58:48So when the others in the group
00:58:50found out I could sing,
00:58:52they entered me into a singing competition
00:58:54last minute.
00:58:56Well, if you sang just like you did there,
00:58:58I'm sure you saved a lot of birds.
00:59:00Well, that was the problem.
00:59:02I dislocated my shoulder that morning,
00:59:04and I went to see the doctor right away.
00:59:07And when I got to the chorus,
00:59:08the painkillers really kicked in.
00:59:10Oh, no.
00:59:12Oh, yeah.
00:59:14Instead of singing,
00:59:16The Lady Loves Me,
00:59:18I sang,
00:59:20The Lady Loves Me.
00:59:22Oh, God.
00:59:24It wasn't funny.
00:59:26I was delirious.
00:59:28To make matters worse,
00:59:30there was a local news crew there,
00:59:32and it aired on every newscast
00:59:34for what felt like a week.
00:59:36I was so embarrassed.
00:59:38For a good cause.
00:59:40Yeah, but I swore to never
00:59:42take center stage ever again.
00:59:46You were really great.
00:59:48Well, I guess I do have a few
00:59:50tricks up my sleeve.
00:59:52Can't wait to see the next one.
00:59:54Come around, everybody.
00:59:56Oh, oh.
00:59:58You gotta get over there.
01:00:00Let's go.
01:00:02Come on, girls.
01:00:09You know the legend, right?
01:00:11The Paulson Tribal Parrot
01:00:13is as difficult to find
01:00:15as true love.
01:00:17And only those who found true love
01:00:19will ever find the parrot.
01:00:21There aren't as many couples around
01:00:23who have found true love.
01:00:25So they can't find the bird.
01:00:27How did you know it was
01:00:29the Paulson Tribal Parrot?
01:00:31It's beautiful, fuchsia heart shape
01:00:33on its chest feathers.
01:00:35But most of all, it's calm.
01:00:37Well, look at you.
01:00:39You've got all the luck.
01:00:42You bet.
01:00:44Yeah, I've lost my boyfriend.
01:00:46I have no story.
01:00:48So I'm about to lose my job.
01:00:50But I have a wedding bouquet
01:00:52with the beautiful colors
01:00:54of the elusive tribe rock.
01:00:57You're sure we can't use
01:00:59any of that video that you shot?
01:01:01Oh, I have a great travel segment.
01:01:03Just not the type of thing
01:01:04the fake checkers plays.
01:01:06Listen, I'm sorry.
01:01:08I couldn't be more of help.
01:01:10No.
01:01:12I really appreciate
01:01:14everything you've done.
01:01:16Truly.
01:01:18Without you,
01:01:20I wouldn't have learned the lakame.
01:01:22Well, that's a skill
01:01:24that no one should go without.
01:01:26You still remember the steps?
01:01:28Um...
01:01:30I think we can manage.
01:01:35Oh!
01:01:49Oh no, is that the wrong step?
01:01:51No, no way!
01:01:53You only have three steps.
01:01:55Oh, three steps.
01:01:57One, two, three, four, five.
01:02:00No!
01:02:04No!
01:02:35♪
01:02:58Kennedy!
01:03:01Beau!
01:03:02Beau!
01:03:04What...
01:03:06What are you doing here?
01:03:08I think we're making a mistake.
01:03:10What can I do to get you back?
01:03:12I don't believe you.
01:03:14What's the real reason you're here?
01:03:16I need your help.
01:03:18My story collapsed
01:03:20without you there to inspire me.
01:03:23Uh...
01:03:25Listen, I've gotta go.
01:03:28We can talk later.
01:03:33Is that, uh...
01:03:35Beau Hawks, my former co-host.
01:03:37Your ex.
01:03:39That, too.
01:03:41But that doesn't matter right now.
01:03:43Were you looking for me?
01:03:45I think we were looking
01:03:47in the wrong spot for the parrot.
01:03:49I looked at the photo again last night.
01:03:51The lancet trees are in the background.
01:03:53They only grow in soil
01:03:55from recent volcanic origins.
01:03:57So we have a new place to look.
01:03:59If you're up for another adventure.
01:04:00He can wait.
01:04:21Got it.
01:04:27Well, the Pulsum parrot likes water.
01:04:31Wait, hold on.
01:04:38I think this looks like where they took the video.
01:04:43You're right.
01:04:45So this is the spot.
01:04:49Okay, let's take a look.
01:05:01This parrot really doesn't want to be found.
01:05:08Well, I could have swore
01:05:10we're in the right location this time.
01:05:13Maybe it's like love.
01:05:15We always look for it in the wrong place.
01:05:18Well, maybe you shouldn't look for that.
01:05:20Just let it find you.
01:05:31Bo made quite the effort to come down here
01:05:33and find you.
01:05:35He was the last person I was expecting to see.
01:05:38My head's been kind of spinning
01:05:40since he came down here for me.
01:05:43But out here,
01:05:45the outside world just fades away.
01:05:48You know, I've been so caught up
01:05:50in trying to find out
01:05:52if we're really on to something.
01:05:55I don't know.
01:05:56I've been so caught up
01:05:58in trying to find out
01:06:00if we're really on to something.
01:06:02And even if it's not real,
01:06:04it feels more real
01:06:06than anything I've felt in a long time.
01:06:08Same.
01:06:15That wasn't me.
01:06:17Was that...
01:06:19I think so.
01:06:26I don't know.
01:06:56I don't know.
01:07:27You see anything?
01:07:30No.
01:07:32I was convinced we'd find it this time.
01:07:36There's still a chance.
01:07:39It's that optimism I hear.
01:07:43Yeah, you might be rubbing off on me after all.
01:07:48Well, if I was the parrot,
01:07:50this is where it'd hide from the world.
01:07:57That's the...
01:07:59That's the possum's tribe of parrots.
01:08:03It doesn't exist.
01:08:10Right up there.
01:08:12Yeah.
01:08:14Yeah.
01:08:16Yeah.
01:08:18Yeah.
01:08:20Yeah.
01:08:22Yeah.
01:08:24Yeah.
01:08:27Yeah.
01:08:33I can't believe I'm getting this on camera.
01:08:52There's...
01:08:53There's a pair!
01:08:56There's a pair!
01:08:57There's a pair!
01:08:58There's a pair!
01:09:16We're still rolling.
01:09:17Okay.
01:09:18Let me record.
01:09:19Okay.
01:09:25The discovery of the possum tribe of parrot
01:09:28is only the beginning.
01:09:30With at least one pair,
01:09:32it's up to the conservationists
01:09:34and all of us
01:09:36to keep these birds safe
01:09:38and help them thrive.
01:09:40Great.
01:09:43I can't wait to assess how many there are
01:09:45and develop a conservation strategy.
01:09:47This is really exciting.
01:09:52That's the GPS unit from the resort.
01:09:54Why is it in your bag?
01:09:56I don't know.
01:09:57I thought I gave them back after the tour.
01:10:02We should probably get back
01:10:04just in case anyone knows we're here.
01:10:17Hey.
01:10:18Any luck on your quest today?
01:10:20Actually, yes.
01:10:22But we found something else, too.
01:10:24Oh.
01:10:25Huh.
01:10:28Where is this?
01:10:29My equipment bag.
01:10:31Really?
01:10:32I wonder how it got there.
01:10:34Someone put it there, Jake.
01:10:37You think I put it there?
01:10:39Come on, Ray.
01:10:40Why would I do that?
01:10:41Make money.
01:10:42Save money.
01:10:43Come on.
01:10:44I'm not trying to be a career tour guide.
01:10:45All right?
01:10:46I'm an artist.
01:10:47So it's just a coincidence
01:10:48that this was on in my bag.
01:10:50You know what probably happened?
01:10:52I bet we put it in your bag
01:10:54for the jungle tour.
01:10:56Yeah.
01:10:57You've got some equipment
01:10:58that we didn't want you to lose,
01:10:59so we probably just forgot
01:11:01to get it for me at the end.
01:11:04Yeah.
01:11:05I guess that's what happened.
01:11:08I don't know.
01:11:10I don't know.
01:11:11I guess that's what happened.
01:11:14Put it back where it belongs.
01:11:15Oh, yeah, of course.
01:11:19Sorry about that.
01:11:34Hey.
01:11:35So,
01:11:36you sure you know where to go?
01:11:37Yeah.
01:11:38Once we're settled in,
01:11:39we can talk plans again.
01:11:40All right.
01:11:41But I want to get that
01:11:42before anyone else.
01:11:43Yeah.
01:11:44Yeah.
01:11:45Okay, great.
01:11:51Beau!
01:11:52I saw your missed call.
01:11:53Can we talk?
01:11:57No.
01:11:58Welcome in.
01:12:01Will you let me apologize?
01:12:03I never should have
01:12:04taken you for granted.
01:12:06You're the best thing
01:12:07that's ever happened to me.
01:12:08And this time apart
01:12:09has been so good for me.
01:12:11You show me what life is like
01:12:12without you,
01:12:13and I'm useless.
01:12:16This time has been good
01:12:17for me, too.
01:12:19And you were right.
01:12:20We were in a rut
01:12:21going nowhere.
01:12:23We're a team.
01:12:24A good team.
01:12:25We're not a team anymore.
01:12:29Mindy will take us back.
01:12:31We just have to show her
01:12:32how good it used to be
01:12:33by working on this story together.
01:12:35Why would I share a story
01:12:36that I've worked so hard on
01:12:37with you?
01:12:38Well, I might have
01:12:39some information
01:12:40that could help you.
01:12:41I saw that guy
01:12:42at the front desk
01:12:43talking to some dude
01:12:44about where the birds were.
01:12:45He promised to take him
01:12:46straight to them.
01:12:47Jake?
01:12:48So he was after the location.
01:12:49Did you get a name?
01:12:50Who he was talking to?
01:12:51Well, I might not be
01:12:52as useless as I look,
01:12:54but if I help you,
01:12:55do you promise
01:12:56to give it another shot?
01:12:57Well,
01:12:58you can start
01:12:59by writing a script
01:13:00with a story,
01:13:01and a front desk
01:13:02can fill you in.
01:13:03You think you can handle that?
01:13:04I'm on it.
01:13:06Where we were,
01:13:07we found there were
01:13:08certain trees.
01:13:10How do you know
01:13:11the bird traders?
01:13:12Beau got the name
01:13:13of the bird collector
01:13:14Jake was with,
01:13:15and from what he told me,
01:13:16Jake gets a fee
01:13:17for the parrot's location.
01:13:18But I doubt he's just
01:13:19after some pretty pictures.
01:13:20Beau,
01:13:21do you think Jake
01:13:22would share the coordinates?
01:13:23Well, I hope not,
01:13:24but we can't risk them
01:13:25finding the tribooks
01:13:26before we find them.
01:13:36Are you sure
01:13:37this is the right place?
01:13:39Yeah.
01:13:40I checked the coordinates
01:13:41like 20 times.
01:13:43Hey,
01:13:44you're not going to hurt
01:13:45the parrots, right?
01:13:47Of course not.
01:13:48My clients want the birds
01:13:49as healthy as possible
01:13:50for their exotic collections.
01:13:52You said you only needed two.
01:13:54You can't take them all.
01:13:55I'll take them all.
01:13:56I'll take them all.
01:13:57I'll take them all.
01:13:58I'll take them all.
01:13:59I'll take them all.
01:14:00I'll take them all.
01:14:01I'll take them all.
01:14:02I'll take them all.
01:14:03I'll take them all.
01:14:04I'll take them all.
01:14:05I'll take them all.
01:14:06I'll take them all.
01:14:07I'll take them all.
01:14:08I'll take them all.
01:14:09I'll take them all.
01:14:10I'll take them all.
01:14:11I'll take them all.
01:14:12I'll take them all.
01:14:13It's worth it, right?
01:14:14We only got two.
01:14:15You can't take them all.
01:14:16You said breeding,
01:14:17not trading, right?
01:14:19For the breed,
01:14:20you have to trade, Jake.
01:14:21I don't usually pick up
01:14:22more than I said,
01:14:23but...
01:14:24well,
01:14:25business is business.
01:14:26You done your part?
01:14:28Yeah, whatever that means.
01:14:29Listen, ma'am,
01:14:30I think I saw it at ours.
01:14:31I have an idea.
01:14:32Hey!
01:14:33Oh, hey, uh, Kennedy, Ray, what, what, what, what?
01:14:39Hey Jake, uh, we're just recording a segment for my show and I wanted to ask you a couple
01:14:47questions.
01:14:48Did you know there have been reports of an illegal bird trader on the island?
01:14:55What's going on here?
01:14:56I'm with the Fake Checkers, a TV show which uncovers scams and corruption.
01:15:01We fabricated a story about the sighting of an extinct exotic parrot in order to capture
01:15:06bird traders in action.
01:15:08Fabricated story?
01:15:09What do you mean?
01:15:11Wait, wait, you said you found the bird, right?
01:15:13So...
01:15:14Yeah, that was part of the scheme.
01:15:16I guess the real question here is, what are you two doing here?
01:15:23We're just a couple of ecotourists, yeah?
01:15:26So you two aren't trying to capture rare animals illegally?
01:15:29No, no, I would never do that.
01:15:32I wouldn't do that.
01:15:33Ray, I wouldn't...
01:15:34Hey, I'm just trying to help.
01:15:38Are you prepared to say that to camera, Patrick Wallace?
01:15:45I think we should go.
01:15:46Hey, just...
01:15:47No, hey!
01:15:48I think it's a good idea.
01:15:49Look, look, I'm not with this guy, all right?
01:15:52He's just a breeder, he's trying to help, right?
01:15:54Listen, he contacted me through the website, all right?
01:15:59I thought this could be good.
01:16:00You know that's my job, Jake.
01:16:01You should have come to me.
01:16:02What were you thinking?
01:16:03Yeah, I tried to come to you, remember?
01:16:04Huh?
01:16:05And you didn't believe me.
01:16:06I just couldn't see how it could be a real sighting with a lack of evidence, and I never
01:16:16stopped having hope that patience would allow nature to show us the truth when it was ready.
01:16:22I think you should go, Jake.
01:16:23Yeah, you better go catch your friend, make sure he doesn't get lost and miss his flight
01:16:29home.
01:16:30I'm sorry, Kimberly.
01:16:31I think it worked.
01:16:32I think that scared him pretty good.
01:16:33You know, being on the side of the camera is actually pretty fun.
01:16:36We make a good team.
01:16:39What do you say to a celebratory dinner tonight, you and me?
01:16:50Sure.
01:16:51I don't know.
01:16:52Much like we're going to a party.
01:16:53Yeah, I'm sure it'd be fun.
01:16:54I'm sure it'd be fun.
01:16:55I'm sure it'd be fun.
01:16:56I'm sure it'd be fun.
01:16:57I'm sure it'd be fun.
01:16:58I'm sure it'd be fun.
01:16:59No, no, no, no.
01:17:00Much like Rosemary's gotten loose in the resort again.
01:17:01I think she has a thing for you.
01:17:05She just might.
01:17:10I thought we could both use some change, a newer perspective to see.
01:17:39Thanks to Beau's help, we were able to officially protect the Pulsantribara parrot in the area
01:17:44and uncover the dangers these beautiful animals face when not carefully protected.
01:17:50This truly is a special story, proving a parrot came back from extinction.
01:17:55And with your efforts to support conservation work, just think how many other animals we
01:18:00could save.
01:18:01And with some faith and in the presence of true love, I now know miracles do happen.
01:18:08And that's Fake Checked!
01:18:11Thanks Beau for your help.
01:18:12It's pretty smart, cozying up to the guy at the bar to get his name.
01:18:16Reminds me of old times, going undercover together.
01:18:22You know I'd do anything for you, right?
01:18:25And we can go at your own pace, build back what made the show great again.
01:18:31You really did make a difference in a lot of people's lives.
01:18:38You must be Ray.
01:18:47Uh, yeah.
01:18:48Yeah, Kenny, you told me about you.
01:18:51Well, thanks for being our guide and looking after while I was away.
01:18:56I missed her so much.
01:18:58It's good to be back with her.
01:19:02So you guys are back together.
01:19:04Things are just better when we're together.
01:19:06The show just works.
01:19:07We work.
01:19:08Kennedy knows it.
01:19:09Hey, listen, I'd invite you to dinner, but we've got a lot of catching up to do.
01:19:14Uh, yeah.
01:19:15Well, I hope the show goes the way you want it to.
01:19:19Do you want me to give those to her?
01:19:23Yeah, sure.
01:19:25Tell her thank you.
01:19:28Sure.
01:19:37That's a funny way to grow, but those don't mind slowing down.
01:19:44Time, is this fleeting as a sunset, hiding in the evening clouds?
01:19:53So live with me here in this moment's night.
01:20:02Can we live right here in this moment now?
01:20:26I just want to know why, Jake.
01:20:28You should have listened to Ray.
01:20:30Yeah, I know.
01:20:31It just seemed like a sign.
01:20:32You know, I finally got my design work out there on the site, and the tourists were really loving the mystery,
01:20:37especially when the photo went viral.
01:20:39And then Ray took it all down.
01:20:41You know, things started to slow.
01:20:43Then this guy said he could help the parrots with the breeding program,
01:20:46and if I helped him, then more parrots meant more business, and I'm...
01:20:49Look, I'm sorry.
01:20:51I thought it was a win-win, all right?
01:20:53I never intended to hurt Ray or the parrots.
01:20:55No.
01:20:56Well, at least no harm was done.
01:20:58And the story should mean more business for the website.
01:21:02Well, you know, I'm donating 20% of all proceeds to the center, so...
01:21:07I'm sure Ray will be grateful for the support.
01:21:10I've got a lot of making up to do, but it's a great start.
01:21:14Here, I got this.
01:21:17Huh?
01:21:18Pretty cool.
01:21:19Yeah?
01:21:21Keep in touch, Jake.
01:21:22You got it.
01:21:25Safe travels.
01:21:42Please find attached my edited segment.
01:21:45I flew out with one story in mind,
01:21:47but it completely changed once I discovered an even greater one.
01:21:51And so did I.
01:21:53Please accept this email as my resignation for the Fake Checkers co-host job.
01:21:59I came to St. Lucia to prove to the world that what is gone is lost forever.
01:22:04But this island opened my heart to something completely unexpected.
01:22:10On my quest to find an elusive parrot,
01:22:13I learned more about myself and what I'd been avoiding.
01:22:17I'd lost hope in taking risks and believing in unexpected miracles
01:22:22and the beauty in life all around us.
01:22:25Mindy Doll, I got some ideas I want to discuss.
01:22:28That new production runner, uh, Stacy?
01:22:31I think she's got real potential. I think she deserves a break.
01:22:35For me, this job has always been about uncovering scams that target people
01:22:40after my dad's career was ruined by a faked photo.
01:22:44But this trip made me realize that's not what my father would have wanted me to focus on.
01:22:49Bye!
01:22:51Hey, how'd the honeymoon go?
01:22:53It was amazing. Relaxing, romantic.
01:22:59Are you watching Kennedy's report again?
01:23:02Yeah.
01:23:04She did a great job.
01:23:06You know, she really did.
01:23:09So, um, this was addressed to you on my desk when I went into work.
01:23:16Let me have it.
01:23:21Will you call me later?
01:23:22I will. Love you. Glad you're back.
01:23:40This story has led me on a new path.
01:23:44A path that will continue my dad's legacy in conservation.
01:23:48And in the memory of Dr. James Weber.
01:23:51This is Kennedy Weber, reporting for the last time, for The Fake Checkers.
01:24:10It's so nice of the local committee to do this for Dad.
01:24:14It's so unexpected.
01:24:16I just wish I had more than a week's notice for the ceremony.
01:24:19Well, the opening of a research center in Dad's name was way overdue.
01:24:23Yeah. I would have invited Ray.
01:24:25Get him to watch me do my very first episode.
01:24:28Your own TV show!
01:24:30And Jake did a great job with the logo.
01:24:33I know. I was so nervous.
01:24:36Jake did a great job with the logo.
01:24:38I know. I was tired of debunking scams.
01:24:41Now I get to tell stories that inspire people and give them hope.
01:24:45Dad would be so proud.
01:24:48What did the organizer say?
01:24:50Well, someone brought Dad's name to the attention of the local conservation advisory board
01:24:54when they were naming this new research center.
01:24:58Everyone was in agreement.
01:25:00Who was it?
01:25:01I don't know.
01:25:06You look more beautiful than anyone I know.
01:25:12Than anyone I know.
01:25:17Ray?
01:25:19You did all of this?
01:25:21How? Why?
01:25:24The opinions of those who respected and admired your father never changed.
01:25:27And I wanted you to know that.
01:25:30Um, hi.
01:25:32I'm Sienna, Kennedy's sister.
01:25:34Sienna, it is lovely to finally meet you.
01:25:36The pleasure is all mine.
01:25:43I can't believe you organized all of this for our dad.
01:25:47Well, to be perfectly honest with you,
01:25:50I really did it for you.
01:25:52Oh?
01:25:54Yeah, you know how I am with words.
01:25:57I didn't think that I would find the right ones in the right order to let you know that
01:26:02I'm in love with you.
01:26:07You had nothing to worry about.
01:26:18You know, this center at St. Lucia has connections with a center here in New York.
01:26:22So you could come and work here? Near me?
01:26:25If you want.
01:26:27Then we'd always have St. Lucia.
01:26:31Okay.
01:27:01Okay.
01:27:31Okay.
01:28:01Okay.
