Destroyers
HMS Proper Job sails to glory After 10 highly competitive challenges, two scraptastic teams – the Barley Pickers and the Boat Buoys – were poised to do battle for the coveted trophy. As Robert announced the challenge, thoughts of previous great sea battles flickered through the minds of those present. As did the sinking of the Titanic. But 10 hours later, two formidable destroyers were ready for launch. The teams faced a tough head-to-head race in which they had to bash their way through harbour gates, topple an enemy watchtower and sink an enemy battleship before racing to an island to claim the trophy. The Barley Pickers had some trouble with their steering and the surprisingly quick Boat Buoys were the first to blast through the harbour gates. But rounding the island the Barley Pickers were able to take advantage of a shallower draft and grab the lead. Using their hydraulic prongs, the Barleys then toppled the tower in seconds. The Boat Buoys struggled to tip theirs over with a combination of winch and battering ram, losing valuable time. The Barleys then rammed their enemy vessel at speed, their deadly prongs crashing through the hull. Unfortunately, extracting them proved more difficult, and for a moment it looked as if the Boat Buoys were back in the race. But though the Boat Buoys' combination of claw and battering ram worked well to sink their battleship, they weren't quick enough to overtake the farmers. The Barley Pickers had already pointed HMS Proper Job at the island – and sailed into Scrapheap history.

Wild Cards

Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
