The brothers awaken in the hospital and assume the identities they had been given, learning that Mel and Mo were expected by the station as two highly-touted naturalist recruits to the National Park Service. As they adjust to life at Yellowstone they struggle to adopt Mel and Mo’s apparent foraging lifestyle, while also feebly attempting to accomplish their job as best as they can. Along the way, Phil develops a mutual attraction with Jesse (Langer), a Lieutenant at the station and the stepdaughter of the park’s commanding ranger Captain Pine (Ashton), earning both the brothers Pine’s ire.
