Luke's green 'aquies'

Luke shares with Tom Cashman that his favourite colour is green, and that his fanciest word is 'acquiesce'. However, upon reading the task brief, he admits that he does not know how to spell that word, and he tries to get Tom to tell him.

He heads into the study, where he finds a box of coloured crayons. Picking out one of the green crayons, he starts trying to write out his word on a piece of paper, but really struggles to identify the correct spelling.

He writes out multiple alternate spellings of the word on his piece of paper, and then eventually picks the one that he thinks is most accurate: 'aquies'.

In the studio, Tom Gleeson quickly points out that Luke had been "standing on a square kilometre of grass", which he could have used to spell his word.

Tom Cashman shares that he'd typed all three of Luke's potential spellings of 'acquiesce' into Google, and none of them were close enough for the website to suggest the correct spelling as an alternate search term.

Tom also reveals that Luke took 4 minutes and 34 seconds to incorrectly write his word with a crayon, and so he receives no points.
