[0:00]For $100, do you want to go to Switzerland today for free? I can't go to Switzerland. How come? My dad will be angry. For 200 bucks, you guys want to go to Switzerland today for free? I don't have a passport. I'm sorry. Do you want to go to Switzerland today for free? Oh shoot. The heck? Today?

[0:20]That's crazy. You're from Switzerland? Sprechen Sie Deutsch? Are you from Switzerland? I'm Swiss. My dad's born and raised there. He's over there right now. No way, when's the last time you've seen him? Probably 30 years. Would you want to see him again? I'd love to, but it's hard, you know?

[0:36]I have to work. I don't have a full time job. I don't get any vacation, you know what I mean? What's your name? Monica. I'm Zach. Hi Zach. Nice to meet you. Monica, I'm going to ask you a crazy question. I'll give you $1,000 if you say yes. You want to go to Switzerland for free? I would love to, but I'd have to make arrangements. My step dad is sick with congenital heart failure, you know what I mean? I have a lot of things. Can I give you a hug? Yeah. I'm sorry to hear. Thank you. But at least both my biopsies came back negative so... You're battling yourself? Yeah, you know, so it's hard, you know? I work part time and It's been 30 years since you've seen your dad? Yeah. I was his first child. And then you're going to get me crying. We cross paths for a reason today. I'd love to take you and it includes a plus one as well. I know but I don't have, I have to make arrangements for my dad. And that's not something you could just do. Like, you know what I mean? I would be honored to take you in a plus one. I'll give you time to process and think about it. I'll let you know. We called Monica the next day hoping to get good news. I appreciate you and thank you for everything. But my priority has to be my mom and my dad that's in the States right now. Believe me, I take your gift with my heart and you made my heart smile. But I have to be here in the States to help my mom. With Monica officially a no, we went back to campus to find another person. What is this?

[1:57]A ticket. For what? What are you doing? Do you want to go to Switzerland today for free? Today? Yeah. To Switzerland? Yeah. I don't believe you. No? No. Alright. Switzerland today for free? What? Do you want to go to Switzerland today for free? Nah. I gotta a class in five minutes. Later today. Free flight. Week trip with a plus one. I'll pass by again. It's a one time thing. I'll pass by again. You won't. Yeah, you're right. Do you want to go to Switzerland today for free? Heck no. Dude, I'm so scared of her traveling. Are you? Yeah, dude. Flight is the scariest thing in the world. Does anybody want to go to Switzerland today for free? When's the last time you've been on vacation?

[2:43]Long time ago. Do you want to go to Switzerland today for free? I would like to. I don't think I can though. Why not? I don't have the money. My family's kind of facing eviction right now, so I have to stay employed. I'm sorry, man. Your family's facing eviction? Yep. I kind of have to continue generating money so we can move. If that wasn't the case, would you say yes? Yes, I would. I work at Hobby Lobby, of course. So if you made $1,000, what would you do with it? If I made $1,000, I'd probably put it towards our home payment. Are you a student here? Yes, sir. What's your dream? Um, I would like to move to Taiwan and become a history professor. How much money would you make in a week while you are gone? Maybe $900.

[3:28]For real? You're tempting me. $1,000. *Calls mom* Hello? Hi, mom. My name's Zach. I'm at FIU and I came across your son and we're trying to find a student here and a plus one. And we want to bring them to Switzerland for free. Uh What? I'm very confused too. Round trip includes every activity, all expenses paid. Oh dude. Dude. You have to go. That sounds awesome. Who's your plus one? Who are you going to bring? Mom, do you want to go? You want me to go with you? I mean you are here so. Yeah. Let me do one more thing. Hello, Professor? *Calls Professor* Hey, this is Cameron. You're not going to believe me, but I'm being offered a trip to Switzerland. Can I bring you Swiss chocolate? Uhm, sounds like an excellent opportunity. Take care and I'll see you back in class eventually. Alright, thank you. Is this Professor a nice Professor? She's actually really cool. She might have Asperger's like me. You have Asperger's? Yeah. It's a very mild form of autism. Basically, you're hyper focused on one subject. You're not very good with social interactions. And you're very socially awkward all the time, but you learn to get over it. I don't think you're socially awkward. Oh, thank you. I think you're very funny and sharp. That's the best, that's the best compliment I've heard in a very long time. I want to give you $1,000 cash. Oh my God, I love you. I love you too, brother. Are you sure you want to do this? Absolutely.

[5:04]Oh my God, thank you. You're very welcome, man. Thank you so much. You are very welcome, man. You deserve it. Yeah. Sorry, I'm trying to process it still. You're good man. You're going to give that to help your family? Yes, yes. Would it be easier if we drive over to Hobby Lobby now? Actually, that's a good idea. Hi, Mr. Romer. Hey, what's going on, Cameron? Chad said, yeah, you can take those days off. Wait, really? Oh my God.

[5:37]You go enjoy, man. Don't worry about this. I got you covered. Switzerland, here we come. I love my mama. I love you, baby. We're in Switzerland, baby. Like a fairy tale. Woo! Dream come true! Hello, welcome to Fancy Chocolate. So beautiful. All aboard. Look how cool! You ready, Cam? Yes. Born ready. Oh yeah! I feel alive! It's my first time tobogganing. Yeah! Woo! Cam, he always goes head first into everything, even if he's scared. *Yodeling* Just because he has that kind of spirit. I'm about to jump out of a plane! Woo! That was the best thing ever. We're in a hot tub. In a lake. In Switzerland. Zach, do you want to do a can of a hot tub for free? Woo!
