A Thai Goodbye

It's the last leg of their trip and their first stop is Phuket, Thailand, where the five take part in a wild water fight before celebrating Terry's 67th birthday. Jeff takes Terry to get his first-ever tattoo, while William and Henry get bent into all different directions with a not-so-relaxing Thai massage. George takes the gang to watch Thai boxing before stepping into the ring with William, and, later, Terry gets serenaded by a special guest at an unforgettable birthday dinner. Then it's off to Chiang Mai, their final destination, for a luxurious stay at an amazing hotel.
