In episode 2 of season 2 of Shipping Wars, titled "The King and His Axe," the competition between the shippers heats up as they bid on unique and unconventional loads.
The first shipment up for auction is a Viking ship. Jennifer and Roy face off against each other for the job, and tensions rise as they both try to outbid each other. Meanwhile, Marc tries to secure a load of ammunition, which proves difficult as the seller is wary of the dangerous materials.
Next, Jarrett takes on a challenging load of giant axes, and must find a way to transport the oversize weaponry safely and efficiently. Meanwhile, Roy encounters unexpected difficulties when transporting a live alligator, as the animal becomes agitated and difficult to handle.
As the shippers struggle with their loads, they also must deal with unforeseen roadblocks, such as traffic and mechanical problems. Jennifer faces a setback when her trailer breaks down, and Marc's truck experiences a flat tire. Despite these challenges, the shippers push on, determined to deliver their loads as promised.
At the end of the episode, the shippers arrive at their destinations and unload their loads. Some are met with praise and satisfaction from their clients, while others face disappointment. As always, only one shipper can come out on top and win the highest profit margin, making this episode another exciting and competitive installment in season 2 of Shipping Wars.
