KID NATION Episode 1

Ok, so the show starts off with the host talking. Then we see the kids coming in a big school bus. We learn that there is going to be four leaders and that they were already picked. They come in a helicopter, and these kids are Mike, Anjay, Laurel and Taylor. The four kids are told secretly that at every town meeting about every 3 days, they get to chose which kid worked the hardest and should get a gold star. The gold star is worth $20,000.

All the kids then proceed to take a few wagons with supplies a short distance to where their “abandoned” town is. Dk gets hurt on the way and has to sit on one of the wagons. Mike and Greg get into a fight on the way their because Greg thinks Mike isn’t helping. There is this one kid Jimmy, who is eight and is already homesick.

After a rough start trying to get supper ready, Sophia takes charge and cooks the pasta. Taylor has a moment where she thinks she wants to go home and Mike has a rough start when he wants a meeting but all the kids just want to go to bed. He gets upset, but they agree everything will be better in the morning.

The next day there is a council an no one is listening, Greg and Mike get into a fight and Greg actually pushes Mike. This kid Michael steps up and has this awesome speech and everyone claps. After that the council has to divide the kids into 4 groups and each council member will be a leader. Anjay has mostly older kids, Taylor has the younger ones, and the rest are mixed.

The host then comes and gives them a challenge. The Winners of the Challenge will become “The upper class” Second place will be the Merchants, Third place is the cooks, and fourth is the labourers. So the challenge is they have to navigate themselves towards these things that squirt up their colour of water, then they have to fill three big bottles. Mikes team is 1rst, then Sanjays, then Taylor’s, Then Laurels.

Taylor is worried about her group cooking the next morning, but they end up doing a great job, and Sophia is a little jealous, and then gets mad because the kitchen isn’t clean. Greg and Blaine have also been vandalizing the town with chalk writing the word “blue” on everything.

At the town council Sophia complains about the kitchen, Michael also steps up and has a little speech. The host asks if anyone wants to go home, and poor little Jimmy puts up his hand and says he wants to go, after some people saying he shouldn’t, he still decides to go. And lastly the gold star is awarded to Sophia. She also gets to phone home.

Fav. Moment: The host asks Jimmy how he is doing, and he says he misses his parents, and Greg says “ you can be my wingman” Jimmy asks “who said that“, and Greg is like” its Greg” and Jimmy is like “no” Its hilarious.
Standout kids:
Jared: He has these funny moments. Hes a little weird though.
Greg: A bully, but he does try and help the youngest kids.
Jimmy: It sucks he went home cuz he was adorable, but he was so brave not to fall for the pressure and say what was really on his mind.
Laurel: She seems very level headed, and I think is making a great leader.
Michael: He is adorable. He also is a great leader, and seems really smart.
Sophia: She is annoying, but she knows what she wants and I think she will do everything to get it.
Mike: He is a great leader. He tries really hard and really wants the town to work.
