Jimmy, Luke and Nina become triplets

The team of three decide to read the task brief as one, alternating between themselves with every word, but keep messing this somewhat simple task up.

Instead of going the same route that they (accurately) assume the other team has gone down, by just wearing the same outfit, they decide to put a 'twist' on their attempt.

Somehow, this twist ends up with them all draped in black cloth, with eggs on their heads, and pans by their feet, and playing musical instruments.

They try to combine the ideas of dressing as the notational representation of a 'musical triplet', and being a triplet of eggs forcing Tom Cashman to solve riddles.

Introducing themselves as "The Eggs Three", they reprise their speaking technique of each saying one word in turn, to form sentences, and pose him the following riddles: "What is your name?"; "How many times has the moon had an aneurysm?"; and "Who did the time?". Tom is able to correctly answer all of their questions.

In the studio, when challenged by Tom Gleeson to explain why what they did was so bad, they fall back into their 'Eggs Three' communication technique, and come up with the answer "It was bad because it sucked."

Tom Gleeson opines that this is what happens when a group is too supportive of one another, and insists there are 'no bad ideas': all the ideas are bad. He therefore awards them just one point each for their effort.
