Tete builds a watermelon launcher

Tete immediately decides that he wants to make either a catapult or a cannon, and so asks how many explosive things are on the property.

He finds two strips of thick rubber in the shed, and stretches this between the two trees which serve as the boundaries of the starting line.

He supplements the rubber with chains, to span the full distance.

Between the two strips of rubber, Tete mounts a cloth pouch to hold whatever he plans to shoot, which ends up being a watermelon.

Tete utters the warning phrase, and fires his watermelon, but aims it too low, and so the watermelon falls short and then simply rolls past Ståle.

After Olli confirms that Tete’s miss was not as far off as Stian’s was, Tete earns third place.
