They are about to partake in ayahuasca, (with the guidance of a shaman), a hallucinogenic vine, so they can "know" the Machigenga. Olly wants to meet the monkey and the frog during his ayahuasca journey.

I laughed about that. There's always a sense of danger, (keeps us watching) but he really was in danger. If the camera crew wasn't there, would the shaman have had the ability to stop Mark from drowning or falling off the mountain? Jeez. Did you see how he was picking up the tent from inside and walking around with it? HA! Reminds me of my friend who was trippin' on shrooms in the wilderness. He became afraid, ran into his tent to get away from his thoughts (fail) then imagined he was in a spider web as the wind blew in and out. HELLLLP! HELLLP ME!

What's up with the sexual taboo they broke? So they kill a deer, bring it back to the village and the chief says they have infected the village with evil spirits and they will have to tie them to a tree with stinging poisonous ants crawling about it to rid everyone of evil. If not they could go mad and have sex with their daughter, mother and mother-in-law. So Olly puts his hand on the tree and gets stung 15 times, after that no more evil in Olly. sheesh.

Sometimes I think these Machigengas get together to see what they can get the silly white people to do.:D
