Episode 8 – The final!

The final episode - and the finale of Hunted into the Wild VIPS 2024! The remaining three teams are Steven and Chatilla, Do and Loiza, and Pieter, who must continue without Appie. Everyone prepares for the last day. Do and Loiza were last spotted at location West, where hunters have been dispatched. They are also the furthest from the extraction area and have a long way to go. HQ decides to send two of the experts into the field as well, to be as thorough as possible and to quickly respond if necessary. Pieter prepares by camouflaging his bright blue backpack and starts his journey towards the extraction area, which fortunately isn't very far for him.

Do and Loiza choose the shortest route but face many obstacles in the terrain today. They are closely pursued by three hunter teams, but with their remarkable pace, they reach the extraction area just in time and out of sight of the hunters. Meanwhile, HQ tries to determine the exact extraction area and looks for logical helicopter landing spots to narrow down the field.

Pieter debates with himself whether to enter the area while waiting for the crucial message or to stay hidden until it arrives. He eventually decides to move a bit further. Chatilla and Steven also reach the extraction area and find a sheltered spot to wait for the message they need to pinpoint the exact extraction point. They aren't entirely sure what they're doing but know they need to have signal at 3:30 PM to receive the important message. The hunter teams are getting closer and have figured out that a helicopter will be used for the extraction.

At exactly 3:30 PM, all three teams receive the message with the exact coordinates for the extraction point. HQ immediately gets notified that three phones have activated and sends all teams in that direction. Pieter is the first to figure out where to go and heads there quickly. The other two teams take a bit longer to find the right spot on the map, but after some deliberation, they also head towards the extraction point. Chatilla and Steven leave their backpacks behind to move faster, but unfortunately, they run into a hunter team and are quickly captured, ending their game.

Pieter is close to both the hunters and the extraction point. He hesitates and debates with himself again, then suddenly sees the helicopter appear in the sky. Meanwhile, Do and Loiza also spot the helicopter. They drop their backpacks and speed up towards the helicopter. Pieter decides to run and makes a sprint for the helicopter. He drops his backpack and keeps running, but unfortunately, the hunter team arrives and captures him with the helicopter in sight. Do and Loiza run in right behind. What they don't realize is that one of the hunters has gotten into the helicopter to wait for them. They stand no chance and are captured just a few meters from the helicopter. This season, the hunters claim the victory.
