## History

### *Disventure Camp (Season 2)*

#### Episode 1

In "Pilot", Kai is first shown talking to Rosa María on the bus. They discuss their astrological signs until Kai mentions that he is a Taurus. He is later seen running with Lake, telling her that he feels some "turbulent" vibes from her and notices how a friend of his "went astray from enlightenment" due to "earthly concerns", hinting at Lake's troubled home life. He is placed on the Angry Condor team, which ends up winning the challenge. His conflict with Yul also begins, after the latter sends him away while trying to deliver a message of wisdom, which leaves Kai shocked.

#### Episode 2

In "Open Your Eyes", Kai talks to a troubled Maggy. In her conversation, Kai tells Maggy that her size is not a burden, but a blessing, and that she has the potential to bring happiness to the world, which makes Maggy blush. This causes Yul to accuse Kai of betraying the team, which Kai unsuccessfully tries to deny. The fight is interrupted by Connor.

#### Episode 3

In "The Kiss-a-thon", Kai is seen kissing Rosa Maria and Lake. Kai is visibly upset when Yul refuses to kiss Maggy. After enough insults, Kai's hair tie falls out and he launches a foul-mouthed tirade at the dancer, at the same time he defends Maggy and explains how great she is. The challenge ends there, and Kai immediately regrets showing the darker side of him. However, a pep talk from Connor cheers him up and he finds solace in knowing that he stood up for Maggy. Unfortunately, he is targeted by Yul's alliance and is eliminated, placing him in 9th place. Before boarding the bus with Connor, he suddenly feels a call from nature and decides to disappear into the woods.

#### Episode 4

In "Truth Hurts", he appears as Maggy is about to board the disposal bus, inviting her to live in the woods with him, to which she accepts.

#### Episode 6

In "Broke & Back Mountain", he and Maggy help a missing Oliver. They explain how they have been living in the forest since their removals. Before Oliver sets off to find a way to the highway, Kai says a line of wisdom, noting Oliver's distraught mood: "Seek out the wise man who drinks from the turtle's neck." This quote leaves Oliver confused.
