Rita tries to fill a cup with tears

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

Rita decides that she may be able to just manufacture tears instead of crying for real. After some chaotic searching in the kitchen searching for water and salt, Rita returns to Nuno with some what appears to be powdered saline, which she mixes with water to create tears. She then drips the solution onto her face before immediately scraping the drops off and depositing them into the cup. In the studio, Rita argues that the task did not specify that the tears had to be real; Vasco counters with the chemical definition of ‘tear’, which includes enzymes and lipids, neither of which were present in Rita’s saline solution. Vasco compliments her thinking, but declares that real tears must take precedence in this task, and awards her joint third place.
