Rosie ingests the envelope
Upon opening the golden envelope and finding the actual task brief within, Rosie announces “Here we go. That’s what we want. Not that gold shit.” Having read the task brief, she admits that she doesn’t know what the phrase ‘push the envelope’ means, and asks Alex if it’s something sexual.
In the studio, Greg confirms that Rosie was suggesting that ‘pushing the envelope’ referred to something involving the vagina, and Rosie responds “Of course”. When Greg then asks her whether she assumes that any English phrase she hasn’t heard before is sexual, she agrees.
Back in the living room, Rosie announces that she’s going to push the envelope inside herself, by eating it. Relocating to the kitchen, she makes a smoothie for herself using some bananas, peanut butter, milk, and some paper torn off of the envelope. As she does so, she suggests that maybe she could get her own cooking show, describing it as “Nigella meets Rymans”.
Having blended up her smoothie and poured some of it into a glass, she garnishes it with a small piece of the golden envelope, before returning with it to the living room, where she downs the smoothie, before describing it as “chewy”.
In the studio, Rosie states that she had been willing to just eat the envelope, but had been deterred from doing so by the production team, for safety reasons. Alex advises the viewers that they should neither eat nor drink an envelope.
When questioned by Greg as to whether she had been ‘pushing’ the envelope, she confirms that she had pushed it into her gullet. Greg then points out that she’d likely later pushed it out of her “bot-bot”, prompting her to claim “You know what? It’s still a bit gold.”
After Greg awards Rosie 3 points for her effort, she protests that Jack had just “went for a walk”.
