Jenny and Mae direct Kiell to collect spoons

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

After confirming that Kiell is blindfolded, Mae asks him (in their very Mickey Mouse-like voice) to "look around for spoons", to which he responds "I can't look". After clarifying that they want him to move the camera around, Jenny spots a spoon on top of the oil drum in front of Kiell, and they direct him towards it. He has some trouble getting the magnet to land on target, since it keeps getting stuck to the oil drum itself. After Kiell says the team needs to work out a better system, Mae recommends he get down on his hands and knees and crawl, which Alex immediately advises him not to do. Mae and Jenny guide him towards the bathtub, where he gets down on all fours on the grass and finds two spoons. They then guide him towards the shed, encountering an arrangement of four spoons on the lawn, along the way. In directing him towards these spoons, Jenny tells him that he needs to be "in the middle of the grass, if you can imagine it", rather than just telling him to turn left or right. Mae then points him in the correct direction to collect them. With five minutes remaining on the clock, they decide that Kiell should return to the lab. After they tell him to come and find them, he points out again that he can't see, and that they need to actually direct him. They try to navigate him around the outside of the house, but manage to make him walk into the side of the geodesic dome. After some confusing instructions about which way around the dome he needs to go, he gets around it and finds two more spoons on a utility cover in front of the house. He finds his way in through the front door, and heads down the hallway, noting to his team-mates that he has stopped listening to them both. In the studio, Greg notes that Kiell seemed like "an older brother who's been through this nonsense a thousand times". Alex reveals that Kiell managed to collect nine spoons in total, and returned to the lab with a minute to spare. Greg awards the team members five points each for winning the task by default.
