Aaron rigs up a terrible pulley system

Aaron fails to catch the frisbee, the first time Tom Cashman throws it, claiming that it was a bad throw. We then see Tom throwing it again, and, on the third attempt, Aaron finally catches it.

Aaron initially decides that there is no way around him just throwing the frisbees, so he wheels the barrow full of frisbees some distance away from the caravan to try that.

Aaron’s first throw misses, and he celebrates with a big “Yeah!”. His next throw hits the caravan, quite close to the door, so he decides to move a bit further away. As he starts to move the wheelbarrow, he remembers that he hadn’t celebrated his miss, so he drops the barrow, then turns to Tom and screams “YES! YES! YES!”.

Aaron throws a few more frisbees and continues to miss. When he is silent and shaking for one of his celebrations, Tom comments that it looks unhinged, and Aaron confirms that he doesn’t have a lot more screams left in him.

Aaron then asks Tom for some tape, before absentmindedly throwing a frisbee away from the caravan, and only just remembering to celebrate.

We then see Tom running across the lawn with some string, and it is revealed that Aaron has set up what appears to be a sort of pulley system to the caravan. Aaron tells Tom to hold the parallel strings taut, before throwing the frisbee so that it lands across them. Presumably his idea is that the strings could then be lifted, sliding the frisbee into the caravan, but it actually just falls to the ground.

Aaron returns to just throwing the frisbees, while Tom counts down to the end of the task. He keeps hitting the side of the caravan and celebrating. With 15 seconds left, he finally gets the frisbee inside, and immediately screams “Yes!”, before quickly changing it to a “No!” and falling to the ground in apparent defeat.

In the studio, Tom Gleeson observes that Aaron had been throwing the frisbees vertically, rather than horizontally, which either meant that he knew exactly what he was doing, or had absolutely no clue. Aaron responds that in Ultimate Frisbee, this technique is called a ’hammer throw’.

Aaron’s successful throw was from 8.4 metres away, so Aaron earns 3 points
