…getting punched in the face, or getting browbeaten like a 7 year old…
Oh goody… three days and nights on the trail, with nothing to think or talk about other than abject disappointment and the fact that nothing has changed… and the knowledge that nothing will probably ever change…
Do we think that JJ will take off his pack when he goes to sleep? And will Mark ever have to shave?
The Daily Trail 
JJ does not go to sleep, vanishes in the night, sprints ahead and takes off in his SUV, subjecting us to Mark’s desert survival lessons for weeks on end. Or maybe the flash flood exposed a wormhole cave that will plop them into the Lost Forest lake, where Mark uses JJ’s gun to stop Dirty Dyer from killing Cherry and Rusty. Flapjacks all around…
Nice…! And I think you are correct about JJ skipping out over night. Call me cynical.
