Maria scoops out the tub

Maria starts by trying to use a pump (which only blows air out), before switching to using a large orange suitcase to bail the water out.

She manages to repeatedly fill up the open suitcase and then muscle it out of the bathtub, pouring the water out onto the lawn.

Once the water level in the tub gets too low to fill the suitcase, she turns to a combination of scooping water with her shoe, kicking, and splashing the water out by hand.

She finishes by soaking up the last drops of water with one of her socks, and walks away completely drenched.

It takes Maria takes 9 minutes and 6 seconds to empty the bathtub, and she earns third place.
