Ep. 27: Mutta questions Azuma about death before departing for Florida with Hibito
Aired on October 7, 2012
Mutta asks Azuma if he is prepared to die, answering honestly that he would try to survive. This response mirrors the answers given by Azuma and Hibito. As the candidates travel to Florida, Mutta remembers spending months with Hibito attempting to capture footage of a UFO, an event overshadowed by the Zidane headbutt incident that prevented others from seeing it. Upon arrival, Mutta and his parents visit Hibito. They provide him with a DVD-R titled The Miracle of Doha, which he is instructed to take to the moon with him.
