Rita throws a teabag into a mug

Here's a description of the contestant's attempt. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to illustrate it.

Rita immediately panics, unsure of the rules of the show. Her edit mainly consists of her frantically asking questions, like if she can use more than one mug, if she needs to stay in the room, if it’s okay to put the mug in the hallway, etc. She sucks on a teabag to wet it (having presumably realised that the teabag will travel further when wet), while asking why she was not provided any water. Still convinced that she needs to stay in the room, she wets a few teabags with some alcohol from the bar, but then just proceeds to drop the teabag into the mug instead of trying to throw it from across the room. At one point, she holds the teabag in one hand and the mug in the other and tosses the teabag sideways into the mug. Eventually, she ends the task early – Nuno reveals that she only spent 6 minutes 30 seconds on the task, out of her allotted 45. In the studio, Vasco reveals that Rita asked 18 questions during her time performing the task. Rita’s throw is 1.9m, which earns her third place instead of last place, thanks to Toy and Jessica’s attempts being declared invalid.
