Mathew destroys the shower

Mathew immediately jumps up and looks in the ‘freezer’ where he finds the chunk of ice, which he drops into his can.

He then looks in the cupboard above the sink, but finds it to be empty. However, closing the cupboard seems to make water drip from the shower head mounted to the sunroof, so he grabs the can and holds it beneath the shower head, turning the tap to release more water.

When the drip of water from the shower slows down, he tries tapping on the shower head to get more out, but succeeds instead in detaching it from the pipe altogether, knocking it to the floor. He then grabs the pipe and manages to also pull that out of the ceiling, catching another dribble of water as it drains from the fishbowl on the roof.

Trying to see if there is any more water up there, he pushes the sunroof open, tipping over the fishbowl and losing any remaining water inside it, and also knocking over the cup of decking cleaner mounted next to it.

Returning to the interior of the caravan, Mathew looks out of the window opposite Alex and spots the glass of fluid on the plinth outside, yelling “Breakfast drink!”. Leaning out of the window and looking up, he spots the long litter-picker attached to the side of the caravan, and uses it to retrieve the glass, before pouring all of its contents into his can.

Next, he lights a candle and attempts to use the flame to melt some stick of sealing wax into his can, while stating “It’s almost as if these tasks are designed to make a fool of you”.

Mathew then opens the door to the caravan and spots the guttering, asking Alex how to get water to run down it. He positions the fishbowl which he’d retrieved from the roof of the caravan at the end of the guttering, and then pulls on the ribbon, collecting the blue fluid to add to his can. As he goes to retrieve the liquid, he scrapes his thigh against something inside the caravan, breaking the skin. Alex helpfully suggests that Mathew could bleed into the can, which Mathew accepts as a good idea.

Instead of using his own blood, Mathew then tries to crack open a coconut to collect the fluid inside – first by throwing it at the floor, and then by bashing it with a brick. He manages to get some coconut water into his can just as the whistle blows.

In the studio, when Greg observes that both Jason and Mathew had seemed to express their “latent rage” during the task, Mathew admits that he had felt that rage “very, very often”, and “not just in the caravan”, noting that it bubbled up immediately, almost every time he’d read a task brief.

Alex reveals that Mathew had managed to collect 10.7 ducks' worth of liquid in his can, which earns him 4 points.
