Outlines
🕒_FINAL_DAY_START
The script opens on the final day of a hide-and-seek challenge in Switzerland. Adam has one day left to beat Ben's record of 9 hours and 36 minutes to win. Adam has a plan that hinges on the location of his hiding spot, which will be revealed later. Ben and the narrator hurry to catch Adam, discussing their strategy en route to the train station. They consider asking rhyme-based questions to narrow down Adam's location and suspect he might be around Zürich.
🚆_CHASE_TO_ZURICH
Ben and the narrator are on a train to Zürich, believing Adam might be heading there. They discuss the possibility of Adam using a rhyme calculator and decide to ask if Adam is in the same canton. They receive a 'no' in response, which excludes Zürich Canton and makes them consider other potential locations like Basel, Bern, Lucerne, and St. Gallen. They also contemplate the usefulness of asking about east or west directions.
🚶_PLAN_REVEALED
Adam reveals his strategy of taking a train as far as possible and then sprinting to a different municipality within the same train station zone, just before the hiding period ended. He chose a location that rhymes and is outside the radius they set, hoping they would rule out his actual location based on the impossibility of reaching it and the lack of a rhyming word. Meanwhile, Ben and the narrator are still trying to deduce Adam's whereabouts, considering various towns and using a 50-mile radar to their advantage.
🔍_RADAR_QUESTIONS
The chase continues with Ben and the narrator sending a 10-mile radar to find Adam, but it results in a miss. They consider asking about latitude, hoping to avoid that question as it would significantly narrow down the options. They receive a longitude hit, placing Adam east of them, which, combined with previous radar results, limits the possibilities to a tight region. They contemplate the next best question to ask and the strategy for narrowing down Adam's location.
🏠_NARROWING_DOWN_LOCATIONS
After a 25-mile radar hit, Ben and the narrator are cautiously optimistic about finding Adam. They engage in a research montage to narrow down the possible towns based on the information gathered so far. They end up with twelve potential towns and discuss the strategy of revealing Adam's plan, which involves running to a different municipality within the same train station zone to throw off his pursuers.
🚂_TRAIN_TO_WIEDLISBACH
Ben and the narrator take a train to Wiedlisbach, having narrowed down the options to this one town based on the odd departure time of Adam's train. However, upon arrival, they find that Wiedlisbach Station does not match Adam's photo, leading to confusion and the realization that they may have been tricked. They reconsider their strategy and hypothesize that Adam might have used the overlapping zones of two towns, Bätterkinden and Utzenstorf, to his advantage.
🤔_CONFUSION_AND_STRATEGY
The pursuers are left confused and without a clear lead. They decide on a new strategy to exhaust Adam by making him perform tasks that might inadvertently reveal his location. They attempt to get a bird sighting via FaceTime and ask for a photo of five buildings, all while continuing to scrutinize the maps for any missed clues. Despite their efforts, they find themselves lost and unsure of their next move.
🏃_RUN_FOR_STRAVA
In a last-ditch effort, Ben and the narrator make Adam run for Strava, hoping this will lead them to his location. As they wait for results, they consider giving up and just enjoying the scenery. Eventually, they realize they missed an entire line of towns and that Adam could have reached Langenthal by a different route. They rush to Langenthal and check each station on the line, only to end up at the last stop, Rohrbach, without success.
🏆_WINNER_REVELATION
The script concludes with Adam revealing his actual hiding place in Steffisburg, which he reached by running from Thun. The team meets at Zürich Flughafen, where Adam is declared the winner of Jet Lag season 9, Hide + Seek. They celebrate with an edible Jet Lag trophy, and Adam eats it whole. The video ends with the team discussing the challenges of the season and teasing the upcoming season 10.
🎥_POST_SEASON_CONTENT
After the season finale, the team promotes exclusive content available on Nebula, including a cut-for-time special for season 9 and The Layover, their after-show podcast. They also mention other creators on Nebula and encourage viewers to subscribe using their discount link, nebula.tv/jetlag, which supports the show by contributing to its production costs.

Transcripts
Hello, and welcome back to the finale
of hide-and-seek across Switzerland.
Right now, there's one day left,
which means Adam has just enough time
to potentially pull back and win the whole thing.
If he can beat Ben's 9 hour and 36 minutes,
he'll secure first place right before the final day ends.
That might be a tall order, but Adam has a plan
that relies on exactly where he placed his hiding zone,
a plan we'll learn more about later.
For now, let's return to the woods in Winterthur,
where Ben and I are about to start our final day.
Hello.
It's 7:30 am...
and we are...
so frickin' back!
But we gotta go.
It's 7:30.
We gotta catch Adam.
Yeah, let's get to the train station.
Let's go.
So here's the thing.
It is extremely inconvenient.
I mean, this was my goal
to get from this part of the city to downtown.
It's almost an hour-long walk,
but there's a train from Töss Station at 7:51.
We should be able to make that if we're quick.
I just have to not break my leg.
Yeah, are you... Okay, yeah.
I'm so not breaking my leg, Sam.
Okay, but you know there's branches sticking out.
I don't care. No, Ben.
My legs are stronger than that.
Good morning!
It is the final day.
Oh man, I'm nervous.
(sighs)
I did something kinda high risk, high reward.
Ohh, we'll see if it worked.
We need to ask some questions.
So, I think we almost certainly want to do the rhyme thing.
Because it seems like that's the best opening strat regardless.
It's a very useful question.
But I think it might make sense
to ask pretty early the same canton question.
I agree. I think there's
a decent chance he's around Zürich.
Yeah, and even if he's not— Uh-oh.
Even if he's not,
excluding the Zürich Canton, which is pretty big,
would be pretty useful for us.
I mean, the direction might be Zürich regardless,
but okay, let me at least fire off the rhyme.
Okay, fire off the rhyme.
I think we're in a good position.
I agree.
So, alright, let me figure out the fastest route
to Zürich Hauptbahnhof.
Alright, well...
They have bought the rhymes.
This is good.
This is part of the plan.
Ohh, I hope this works.
It is Intern— Oh, that's you.
Awh.
Sin, Flock, Zuckerberg.
I almost put Zuckerberg yesterday.
I know what rhyme calculator he's using.
And Skill.
That suggests to me that he is in a German area, but...
Or... Maybe he's trying to trick us.
Yeah, it'd be very hard for him to get outside of the German area.
Not impossible, but it'd be very difficult.
Should we fire off same canton?
Let's do. If he is near Zürich,
it's gonna be a huge headache.
Gonna be a bloodbath.
And I say that as someone who did that strat.
(chuckles) Yeah.
We'll see.
Okay, so they've asked if I'm in the same canton.
I'm not.
I guess that's a solid question at this point.
If they know that I'm not in Zürich at all,
then that gets rid of the densest,
or one of the densest areas.
On the other hand, though,
given that I'm not in the Zürich Canton...
I mean, it means I could still be in
a whole lot of cantons, so...
Oh, it's a no.
Adam is not in the Zürich Canton,
so that means that he went a decent ways from here.
Yeah, which makes sense,
but there are only so many decent ways he could get.
He could have gone towards Basel.
He could have gone towards Bern.
He could have gone to Lucerne.
Could have gone to Lucerne.
Could have gone to St. Gallen.
That would be the main curveball.
Is there...
a way that we can ask a question
that will give us a direction to go?
I mean, considering he's not in the Zürich Canton,
I don't think Zürich would make a huge difference
if we did— if we figured out
whether he was east or west of us.
(sighs) I mean, but east or west would really
only exclude St. Gallen.
Yeah, but that's a— There's plenty over there.
And it would make sense, because it's kind of a...
It's a bit of a curveball. convoluted corner.
Yeah, but everything else is west.
There's got to be a better question we can ask.
But we're gonna want to do east–west eventually, right?
Yeah, but it's— The thing is
that question is useful anytime.
It really is. Yes, but we need direction.
We do, but I think that there are
other ways we can get direction.
Okay.
Alright, train's here.
I'm gonna venture a guess
that their leading theory is that I'm somewhere outside of Bern.
And I am.
So they're right, but...
I don't think I'm the place outside of Bern
where they would think.
Still going to Zürich because it's still a big hub,
and it's still probably in his direction.
Here's a suggestion.
So if we do a 50-mile radar,
that would include everything east of us
that he could reasonably get to...
but it would exclude Bern
...and all of that area to the west
that he could get to pretty quickly.
Because that's the high-speed line.
Basel would be excluded, barely.
And Bern would be excluded.
But we'd want to hit it now
and not— Before we go to Zürich.
Before we go to Zürich.
The train leaves now, so we gotta...
Yeah, hit the 50-mile radius.
Okay.
Alright.
A 50-mile radar.
I would say that that is somewhat unfortunate.
Because I don't think I'm in it.
Nope.
And that does really limit the possibilities.
Ah, shoot, yeah.
That was probably a smart move.
Alright, Sam, what do you think?
Is it going to be a hit or a miss?
We just got it.
We just got it? What is it?
Miss.
That, okay, well, now I—
It's going to look like I'm lying,
but my guess was going to be miss.
The highest-speed line in the country
is the one that goes Zürich, Bern, Geneva.
Yeah, and he couldn't have gotten as far as Geneva,
but he could have gotten to Bern.
My guess is that he went to Bern.
'Cause it was the furthest—
It was the fastest he could get that far.
Yep.
Do we want to do anything in Zürich?
Or just head straight to Bern?
I mean, if he's not within 50 miles...
Probably not, yeah.
Okay, let me check
what the fastest transfer is going to be.
We're alright.
Just barely made the train.
Let's go this way.
It looks like they're headed to Bern, which...
I mean, in fairness, it's pretty obvious
that I am somewhere...
in the broad vicinity of Bern.
Now, I knew that they would figure out
that I was somewhere in the Bern region-ish
pretty quickly.
So the plan accounts for that.
I wasn't just expecting
that they would never figure that out.
I will say they figured it out a little faster
and a little more cheaply than I would have liked.
Ben, this is so fun.
Yes, we are on our way.
While we're sideways. We're sideways.
It's fun that we're sideways.
It's so fun that we're sideways. Normally they're not sideways.
And that's what fun is.
It's when something is different than it normally is.
Now would be a good time
to ask for a photo if we wanted to.
Yeah, I mean the train station one could be good.
I mean—
I feel like we want that at some point regardless.
That one is a great—
It's just a good verification tool,
and it'll be useful later, and it might tell us something now.
Yeah. So...
What do you think, fire it off?
I think let's just fire it off while we're on our way.
I'm into it. I mean, we're racking up coins,
but I think we're
– at least for a little while – going to be in an area
where we can respond to a curse pretty well.
Yeah, I'm not too worried yet.
Alright, the next part of the game
is the key part.
Just really need them to have a bad middle game.
(growls hesitantly)
Alright, they want a photo of the train station.
But that is fine.
Oh, my legs are so tired.
I mean, I think just a picture of...
this...
would probably work.
Shoot.
(camera click)
Well, I hope that there aren't pictures
that show that graffiti.
Okay, okay, we've got the photo.
That could be anywhere.
I mean, there's the same graffiti.
Yeah, well, I mean, we'll be able to spot it.
I just don't think we can learn a ton from that, because...
I think that could be big city, small.
Good job, Adam.
(faint ringing)
Why is someone ringing a bell?
What's going on?
Whoa, it's sheep.
Hello.
Oh, it's the sheep's bell.
The sheep was ringing the bell.
Great work!
Or goats, maybe?
Are you a goat?
Ram, potentially?
Okay.
Welcome... to Bern.
Welcome to Bern.
Let's...
Bern his chances of victory to the ground.
Ohh! Hey! You like that?
Yeah, that's pretty good.
Thank you.
Yeah, so we're thinking a 10-mile radius
just to see if he's here
or in any of the surrounding towns.
Because if he's not...
the remaining options are pretty limited.
Sending it.
(inhales sharply)
Okay, 10-mile radar.
Not great.
So I'm not within 10 miles of them.
But knowing that...
means they can rule out a ton of the complexity.
Oh, is this car gonna try to— No.
I was really hoping
that they were gonna go for a 5-mile radar.
Because...
that would still kind of leave in the outskirts of Bern.
I think their best next question is probably a latitude.
So let's hope they don't ask that.
Look at...
Look at Bern.
Does it have a particular thing that it's known for?
Vibes?
Seems like it's kind of the whole country.
Yeah, except for Winterthur.
Except for Winterthur.
Ooh.
What?
It's a miss. It's a miss.
Okay, okay.
He still could have come here
and then gone somewhere...
He could have. Connected.
But he only would've had about 30 minutes
once getting here.
We could ask if he is north or south of us.
We could also ask if he's east or west of us.
Yeah, if he is anywhere east of us,
that would narrow down options pretty quick
because of that radius that we have
around Winterthur.
So there's very few places
that would be east of us
and that he theoretically could have gotten to.
Well, he also just couldn't have gotten
that far west of us.
No, so I guess it would narrow down options a good bit.
But it is expensive.
I think at this point...
We're gonna need it.
We're gonna need something big.
Okay, east–west?
(hesitates)
...Yeah.
Ah, shoot.
Longitude.
So I'm east of them.
Ugggh.
The possibilities start to get really limited
thanks to that 50-mile radar, I think,
and the 10-mile.
We start to be dealing with a pretty tight region.
He's east of us.
Okay.
There's a stretch of towns right here.
I think we've sort of got...
Like a band.
Again, unless we are really...
Whiffing it. Whiffing it.
Yeah.
Which we may be.
Very possible.
I think there's a band of towns that he could be in.
And it's here.
Well, is there something that could confirm that?
One thing we could maybe do...
is we could drop a 25-mile radius.
Mhm.
If the 25 is a no, that cuts off
pretty much everything except for...
Yeah, except for the stuff right outside of Basel.
I think at that point,
we would just have to probably assume
he went to Basel.
But I think considering that takes an hour,
it makes sense to use the coins
and use that to... to confirm.
I don't love it, but...
I don't love it either. I don't love it either.
He's not making this easy for us.
I think it's probably the best option.
I think we've got to do a 25-mile radius from here.
Because if it's a yes, then we've got a donut.
Yeah, if it's a yes, that's very useful.
If it's a no, we have a problem.
This is a critical one. Ohh, Adam!
Why are you doing this to us, Adam?
This is too hard.
You picked a place that's too hard.
I'm sure he's feeling...
great right now.
We are not going to let you beat us.
We are going to find you.
So, to me...
This seems like a good sign
that they are confused.
There's a 25-mile radar.
I am within 25 miles of them.
I think that's a good sign?
I'm gonna say I'm cautiously optimistic about that.
Okay, hello.
This is interesting.
We've got an answer.
And it's the most interesting answer.
It's a hit. It's a hit.
So that means that he is within 25 miles of us,
but not 10 miles of us.
We have a Target logo.
Yeah. Not sponsored.
And in fact— We have a Lyme disease bite.
Well, not even.
We have half a Lyme disease bite.
It's like if a tick bit you,
and then half your arm fell off.
Oh, like the inside? Because we've also split
Like a cross-section of your arm.
Yeah, no.
Because we've split—
We've done the longitude as well.
Oh, so it's like, okay,
so it's like you slice your arm in half.
Yeah.
And then you slice it this way too.
The tick has bit you here.
So...
Theoretically...
hopefully...
around now is when my plan should start...
really working.
Right about now, hopefully,
they should be making a list
of all the places where they think I could be.
And hopefully...
where I actually am is not on it.
(chants, knocking rail) Research, research, research.
We should be able to figure out...
down to a few towns, where he is based on this.
So let's fire off... I agree.
Do you want to do— Wait.
Do you want to do a research montage?
Research montage... Let's go!
Yeah, Moutier's too far.
The one that goes through Biberist, right?
He couldn't have gotten to Thun or Steffisburg.
Anything before Buchli on that line is fair game.
Oberdorf, excluded.
That whole line, excluded.
And then there's all the ones from here.
Oof, this is gonna be a long research montage.
Yeah.
Okay, this is taking some time
because I'm being so (bleep)-ing methodical.
You feel me?
I feel you.
I think that narrows it down to...
honestly, a lot of options out of Solothurn.
So maybe we should go to Solothurn.
Ooh, there's a train in five minutes.
We should try to grab that.
Okay, let's see if we can get that.
Okay.
Okay, so...
Here's what I've done.
Assuming we haven't messed up,
we've narrowed it down to
one, two, three... four, five, six, seven...
eight, nine, ten, eleven...
twelve options.
Okay.
Twelve train stations that he might be at.
Are you also—
More train stations.
Twelve towns.
Well, okay. Twelve towns.
Now that the plan seems to be working...
let's reveal what it is.
So last night...
I took a train, basically as far as I could.
The train got in ten minutes before my hiding period ended.
And then the second I got off the train,
I sprinted into a different municipality
within the zone...
of a different train station.
A train station that I could not have gotten to
...on trains
...in time last night.
So my hope was, and seemingly it's working...
They have ruled out where I am
because they've looked at it, and they've been like,
"Well, he couldn't have gotten there."
And then the train station that I actually did go to,
but I'm not in that municipality anymore...
I did not include a word that rhymed with it.
So they're going to look at the town
that my train arrived in.
They're going to say, "Well, he can't be there.
It doesn't rhyme."
But then they're gonna look at the town that I ran to,
and they're going to say, "Well, he can't be there.
He couldn't have gotten there."
But in fact, it turns out that if you run like a madman
and completely destroy your legs...
you can get there.
So...
Cautiously optimistic?
We'll see.
Alright.
We have made it to Solothurn.
We've narrowed it down to 12 options
based on routes that he could have taken,
places that rhyme,
that are outside of the radius that we set to the south.
Yeah, let's go up top. Et cetera.
So, while we were on that ride,
I went through and checked.
Five of those...
are outside of five miles from here.
Seven are not.
So we can more or less split our options in half
...if we set a 5-mile radius.
This does put him over 200 coins.
It's a bit risky.
As long as we don't get him to...
300, we're fine.
...Yeah.
Just, it's fine, don't worry about it.
Alright, should I send it?
Send it.
Castle!
Alright, they have requested a 5-mile radar.
I'll tell them...
they missed.
Okay.
So either we just narrowed— That's getting messy.
Yeah, 'cause either we've narrowed it down to five...
Or...
Or he's somewhere else weird.
Or we messed up a lot.
So, with our options narrowed down to five,
we asked Adam whether his next train departed
at an odd or even time.
He answered odd,
which eliminated four of the remaining towns,
and left us with just one: Wiedlisbach.
So, assuming we didn't make any mistakes,
we hopped onto the next train to Wiedlisbach.
I'm just really worried that
we've whiffed massively
and that— No, it's not possible.
Well, it is.
We're so good at this.
He's gonna be in Wiedlisbach.
The problem is that if we whiffed massively,
this will all probably be edited down massively,
because it's gonna be really boring.
Since this next part is really boring,
I'll just give you the gist.
We took a quick 15-minute train north
before finally arriving in Wiedlisbach,
only to discover that Wiedlisbach Station
didn't match Adam's photo.
No, this doesn't feel like it.
Well, that sucks.
(sighs) We are...
rather confused as to...
I'm not surprised that we got something wrong.
But I just have no idea what.
I mean, we must have missed something.
At this point, we had no choice
but to go back to the drawing board,
and this was when we realized we might have been tricked.
Looking closer at the map,
we saw that one of the towns
we had already eliminated – Bätterkinden –
was actually within walking distance, or running distance,
of another town, Utzenstorf.
We had assumed that Adam couldn't be in Utzenstorf
because it didn't rhyme with one of the words he had provided.
But if Adam had situated himself
so that his hiding zone overlapped with both towns,
he could have answered the rhyme question in Bätterkinden
and then walked to Utzenstorf to answer the other questions.
That would force us to cross off Bätterkinden as well,
and ultimately create the information profile
of a town that didn't exist.
If we disregarded the rhyme data,
then everything else matched with Utzenstorf.
So, with our new theory in place,
we got on a train back to Solothurn
to catch the next train to Utzenstorf.
If it's not this, we must have messed up somewhere.
'Cause we just have to mess up once
to accidentally exclude something that we shouldn't have.
And that's where he can be.
We've checked our work.
This, right now,
is the only option we've identified that still works.
Yeah.
And even this is a tricky one.
Yeah. I mean, he would do tricky.
Yeah, that is true.
This really doesn't feel likely.
No.
It'll be exciting if it is.
(chuckles weakly) That is true.
Let's see.
Alright, well they're moving south from Solothurn.
Have they figured it out yet?
Maybe.
Depends on how far south they go.
(sighs) Depends on how far south they go.
Here's something I just noticed, Ben.
What? The photo.
Oh, it's got that same sort of red thing, doesn't it?
So it's definitely an advertisement like that.
Maybe down.
I don't know, Ben.
No, I don't know either.
No...
Not here.
(growls)
Well...
he's not in Utzenstorf.
But I don't know where he is.
Folks, the plan is working.
What can I say? The plan is working.
They've ruled out the place that I'm close to,
where my train got in, because it doesn't rhyme.
They've ruled out here,
because I don't think they think I could have gotten here.
They simply did not consider...
my incredible speed. (wheezes)
Ahh, they did not consider my incredible speed.
We're not missing a line, right?
(sighs) Should we go through it again?
Konolfingen Line excluded.
This line, this line, this line, this line.
Could he have gotten to Oberburg?
I think we looked at that.
(yawns)
Why the (bleep) did we exclude Bergdorf?
'Cause we don't have Orf.
I believe in you.
This is not gonna work.
Okay, look. We have a new strategy
'cause we cannot seem to figure out what town—
I mean, we've just looked at every town a billion times.
We cannot figure this out.
We must've missed something. I don't know.
Our new strategy is make Adam do
as much (bleep) as we can
and hopefully trip up and give us information
about exactly where he is.
I think, yeah, we forget about coin counts.
Let him curse us however much he wants,
and just wear him down.
At least to... for retribution.
We are going to throw everything that we can at him and...
Eventually he'll just—
Something might get leaked.
Yes. And we can go get him.
I mean, a FaceTime would be fun.
And it's only ten coins.
Okay, let's FaceTime him until he shows us a bird.
Maybe we'll see something.
Hello, Adam.
Hey, fellas.
Let's find you guys a bird.
Let's find you a sweet little birdie.
I'm looking for birds.
We could stay on this call forever.
Ooh, I just saw a bird, but I don't...
I don't think I'm gonna show you that one.
♪ I'm gonna show you a bird ♪
♪ It's bird time ♪
♪ It's bird time ♪
I'm gonna mute Adam.
Yeah, yeah.
Just wait until he shows us that bird.
I don't wanna hear Adam.
I just wanna see a bird. He's saying a lot of words.
I don't know what they mean.
Alright, here's our train.
We are getting on this train to Bergdorf
because...
we just need to get out of here.
We just want to go somewhere more populous and...
Yeah, and this is the last one for half an hour?
Yeah.
He's still babbling.
Adam is still trying to show us a bird.
Adam?
Hurry up and show us a bird.
Oh, oh guys.
There might be some bird situation happening.
You see it?
See that bird?
I'm gonna hang up on him.
Okay, that didn't end up being very useful.
He managed to get a shot of just the sky.
I think I got him frustrated how much he's got.
Well, that's something.
I think we need to ask another question
for more spillover info.
Yeah, probably a photo one at this point.
Yeah.
Maybe a photo of five buildings.
Photo of five buildings?
Yeah, I think that that...
has the best chance of telling us something.
They are giving me coins.
I am getting dangerously high on my coins.
Alright, let's find them some great buildings.
I don't think that this is going to be helpful to them.
Okay.
Well...
We are in Bergdorf, and we are so very lost.
I love Bergdorf.
Where you just have to keep looking at maps
and seeing if we got something wrong.
I love looking at maps and seeing if we got something wrong.
I want to get a snack.
Okay.
What kind of snack, Sam?
I don't know, I haven't tried these things yet.
I think it's like a chocolate chip scone.
Me neither.
Okay.
What about from this angle?
With enough of a zoom...
I can get to... this.
(camera click)
I don't think that that's going to be very helpful to them.
Now we got a photo.
Not very useful.
Yeah, that's a whole lot of nothing.
Alright, what do we want to make Adam do now?
Something. What's the most annoying thing
that we can make Adam do
while we keep checking the maps? Yes, that's what I wanna know.
We could make him run for Strava.
Yeah, (bleep) it, make him run.
Uuggh!
They want me to do the Strava thing.
Ugh, okay.
Oh my god, my legs are so shot.
I just...
(breathes heavily)
Maybe I should just tell them where I am.
Then they'll stop making me...
run around.
(groans)
Keep looking.
Sam, keep looking.
I don't know, I've lost in ten minutes.
You have to motivate me, Ben.
What's in it for me?
The glory of helping me win.
Hold on.
Langenthal.
This is what we might have missed.
Where the (bleep)'s that?
Langenthal is before...
When would he have gone there?
Would he have gone through...
He would have gone straight to Langenthal from Winterthur.
...What?!
Okay, let me explain.
It turns out we missed an entire line.
We had crossed out the town of Langenthal
because, once again,
it didn't rhyme with any of Adam's words,
and we thought Adam couldn't have gotten far enough
to reach any of the towns
on the line going south from Langenthal.
But it turns out that if he had taken
a different route to Langenthal,
going direct from Winterthur instead of through Bern,
he might have just barely had time
to reach one of those towns,
several of which matched the rest of our data.
So, once again,
we gathered up our stuff, hopped on a train,
and made a beeline straight for Langenthal.
Turns out we (bleep)-ed up, big surprise.
Yeah, so the (bleep)up-am-ometer, is...
Well, it's going down now, I guess.
Hopefully. But it was pretty high.
Hopefully, it's going down.
I don't know what direction it's going.
Alright, welcome to Langenthal.
We are here so that we can check that very last line
...of towns.
I think we should take this one.
This is kind of our...
We're so fine.
We've had a lot of last hopes,
but this is our last-last hope.
We're doing great.
The line from Langenthal.
Welcome to the Thunderdome.
Otherwise known as the train from Langenthal to...
This is the Thunderdome. Rohrbach.
With just enough time to ride the line once,
we checked each station out the window
to see if it matched Adam's photo,
eliminating them one by one.
Finally, we arrived at the last stop, Rohrbach.
This isn't looking promising.
The last station, Sam.
Rohrbach.
It's not looking good.
I don't think that this building is gonna match.
Anything?
Nuh-uh.
Well...
They still in Burgdorf?
No, it isn't.
Oh, guys.
Oh, no.
No, no, no.
Oh, fellas.
Well...
I think that's it for us, Sam.
(whimpers)
I think you brought supplies for this?
Yeah, yeah. No, we've got...
We have emergency supplies for this.
A contingency scenario.
Contingency scenario.
This is...
(cans opening)
This is a good idea.
Cheers.
Prost.
It's been real, Ben.
We have no leads.
The real lesson is
if you let someone hide in an entire country...
it can be a little tricky to find them.
We made it work a couple of times.
Yeah, and then we learned that
if you just go to an area with a (bleep) ton of lines,
it starts to get really difficult.
Yeah.
Yeah, it does.
(grunts)
The sun is starting to set.
That's nice.
We can watch it together.
That'll be nice.
That'll be nice.
I think it's time that we let Adam know that...
I'm sure he's ready to get out of...
wherever he is. Wherever he is.
He's been there a while. Yeah.
He didn't have to wait in the forest, though, like me.
Look, Adam...
This was...
a great hiding place, wherever it was.
Oh, there you are.
Hello, gentlemen.
Adam, where are you?
Well, I'm in beautiful Steffisburg, of course!
Steffisburg?
He couldn't have gotten to Thun?
Or Steffisburg?
Where's that?
We don't even—
I thought you couldn't get to Steffisburg.
Well, let me tell you what happened.
Is that last night, I took a train to Thun,
and then I simply ran.
That makes sense. (bleep)
To just over the border in Steffisburg,
because it's quite close?
Just over the border of Steffisburg, yeah.
I'll see you at Zürich Flughafen, fellas.
Alright, see you at Zürich Flughafen.
Good bye!
Good bye.
And now, let us teleport to Zürich.
(zap) Woah!
Oh my god, we made it to the Flughafen.
We're back.
Hey fellas!
It's Adam!
Oh my god, he just came here.
It's Adam from Jet Lag: The Game.
Adam... Hello!
Adam, how does it feel?
How does it feel... How does what feel?
You're about to get hit by a tram.
Oh no! (laughs)
Okay, alright.
Let's wait... for this guy.
Have you heard this story about his...
An old pair squatting with his family for 11 years?
You know about—
What?
You know about the German woman
who lived in my home for 11 years.
I've told you about this.
No!
He also said that I knew this.
Well, Ben just always says
the weirdest (bleep) that I've ever heard.
Right.
Well, it's very fitting.
It's like an origin story
for him letting Europeans take advantage of him.
Woah! Oh my god!
We made it to the Flughafen.
It says on the sign.
Oh my god, it's Adam!
It's Adam Chase from Jet Lag: The Game.
It's Adam from Jet Lag.
Hello!
It's unbelievable timing.
I know! We just got here.
Adam, I would like to now congratulate you in-person
on being the winner of Jet Lag season 9
Hide + Seek. Wooooo!
Very good stuff. Very good stuff.
(continues cackling) Ben, you wanna get the thing?
Well, okay. Now hold on.
Now, while you've been making your way over here,
we've actually had a little bit of time.
I'm— Hold on.
Didn't we just apparate here?
Well, shut up.
Plot hole, but it's fine.
(wheels squeaking) Squeak, squeak, squeak.
Oh my gosh!
No, no, no, no, no, no.
What's that? It's an oven.
Shh! It's an oven?
You can clearly see it's an oven.
That's crazy!
It's clearly in the shape of an oven.
It's an oven. Sam.
I think the oven's front is this way?
That's correct.
Do I want to—
I just want to double check framing
that we can see the oven. Yeah?
Okay, yeah, we can definitely see the oven.
(door opening) (imitates rusty squeaking)
Whoa, okay, yep.
Now go ahead and pull it out.
Ow! It's hot!
Yeah, well, it's freshly baked.
Ow! Why didn't I wear an oven mitt?
Now, hold on. Yeah?
I've got to go ahead and frost it.
So I'm going to take my frosting thing.
Yeah, I think I'm holding it this way,
so you've got to frost the front.
Woah! Oh my god, wow.
That looks so good, Ben.
Yeah? What am I looking at?
You're looking at the first ever
edible Jet Lag: The Game trophy.
It's on theme because
despite the fact that this is coming out months later,
it's about to be Christmas.
Yeeees!
Congratulations, Adam.
Go ahead and take a bite. How is it?
How does it taste?
Oh, he ate the whole thing just like that.
Oh, oh my, it's all gone.
Wow, he was hungry.
Oh, we're about to get hit by a tram again.
We're about to be hit by a tram again.
Okay, we're back. We didn't get hit by a tram.
We paused the video.
One of our mics died, and also there was a tram.
But we're back.
Anyways, Adam, I heard
you had some trouble sleeping this season.
That is genuinely true. Yeah, yeah.
Did you have any hypotheses
on why that might be?
And I really want to emphasize that I mean this...
I slept terribly the whole season.
Yeah?
Because in fact, I am...
jet lagged!
(whooping)
See you in season...
10?
Oh, god!
We've been doing this for way too long.
Oh, man!
Good bye! Good bye!
Caption+ by JS* caption.plus | @caption_plus
Okay.
I did it!
Adam did it.
The season's over.
But guess what?
Your relationship with us is not over.
Because we just put out, only on Nebula,
the Jet Lag season 9 cut-for-time special.
It's a full-length video, it's 21 minutes,
that is clips from this season
that didn't make it into episodes,
but that we thought were fun and silly
and that you should get to see
and that is available right now on Nebula.
We also did one for last season that's a lot of fun.
And that's not even the only thing
that we have exclusive to Nebula right now.
Tell them, Ben.
If you want to stay entertained by us during the off-season,
you've got The Layover, our after-show podcast.
We're going to keep it running through the off-season.
We do little games, weird little episodes.
We usually don't know what we're doing,
but it's a good time.
You can keep watching The Layover
during the off-season.
What else, Adam?
There's so many creators on Nebula
who not only put up their YouTube videos
often early and ad-free and extended,
but they also make a lot of Originals.
There are Originals from
– and they're going to scroll right now –
(rapping) RealLifeLore, Real Science,
Real Engineering, Abigail Thorn,
Patrick Willems, Brody Deschanel, Lindsay Ellis.
Also us, we've made a bunch.
And also... Mustard.
And also other ones, but I can't always remember all of them,
but you're probably seeing some of them now.
Polyphonic, I think that's another one.
Yeah!
They're all my favorite, but Adam,
surely this streaming service costs $1 million a day
because of all of the content on it.
Ben, what if I told you
it actually doesn't cost a million dollars a day?
It costs $30 for the whole year!
But it only costs $30 for the whole year
if you use our code
nebula.tv/jetlag nebula.tv/jetlag
nebula.tv/jetlag
You have to use that link,
and that gets you a discount
and then it also tells them that we sent you,
and that's important for us.
If you do the link, then they know we sent you,
and then we get a portion of your subscription
for as long as you stay subscribed,
which gives us money that we put into the show
to pay for the flights and stuff that we do for the show
and also all of the motion graphics and all of that.
And if you think that price is unbelievable,
you're just gonna have to check it out for yourself
by clicking on that link.
I, for example, don't believe you.
I'm gonna have to go click on that link myself
to see if you're telling the truth.
But if you're telling the truth,
I'm going to buy it, 'cause that's a great deal.
Thank you for watching.
