Sam’s macabre marionette

Sam brings in a wooden marionette made to look like Pinocchio.

However, this Pinocchio’s eyes and mouth are mounted on long rods attached to his face, and large pointy ears have been mounted to the sides of his head.

As Greg and the rest of the contestants express how awful they think the marionette is, Sam helpfully points out that his Pinocchio is the opposite of what one would expect: everything except the nose is long.

When Alex questions the logic, Sam explains that his Pinocchio never lies, but when he is lied to, his various body parts grow.

Greg awards Sam third place.
