Kristen the Snake Researcher mentions that not only has she gotten more help, but she also has people asking for her autograph.

Dawn the Monkey Caretaker tells Mike they've gotten more funding and volunteers for APES. They are grateful to him because after their episodes aired, their businesses picked up.

The other heartwarming part of this episode comes from the people who've featured on an episode to Mike Rowe.

Top Ten include Dawn, the Monkey Caretaker Kristen the Snake Researcher Hunter from The Casino Food Recycler Yav the 11 year old hoof trimmer The Captain of the Shrimp Boat (Fortunately, Mike's mother declined to come) Billy from Vexcon The Charcoal maker The Cattle Rancher (no sleeves, used the 'persuader') The Crawfish Fisher and the Shark Suit Tester.

Keep an eye on the background, you'll recognize at least one person in each shot. It's a nice party with square dances, games, and Mike reconnecting with some of the people he's worked with.

The 150th Extravaganza: People from the jobs prior to this show are invited to a party, in which the Top Ten Dirtiest (as voted by the fans) arrive to the 'brown carpet' in Garbage Trucks.

The feeling is reciprocated, though not without some snarky comments.

Barsky actually has several moments that, despite being mostly business-related (in a 'we're here to shoot a show, let's do it and get it done' manner), show he does care about the safety and wellbeing of the crew and Mike.

Doug gets a bit of flack for not doing the Honolulu Highrise, but Barsky and one of the Window Washers' safety crew telling him it's okay to back out if he doesn't feel fine with doing it is this.

A slightly awkward moment, but Heartwarming nonetheless. You'd think that would ruin the moment, but the last shot of the two before turning back to the episode's focus shows them quietly shaking hands.

Mike pulls them into a group hug and makes an overly dramatic speech about how they're coming together, then tells them to figure it out themselves, as it just 'got weird'.

Barsky argues he wasn't in danger, and that Eddie messed up his shot.

Eddie Barbini, some sort of manager or producer for the show, yells and even tugs Dave Barsky out of the way of a falling tree.
