Ray finds the motherlode

Ray first finds the “Remove an item of clothing” task, and takes off his grey jacket.

He then finds the “Do five yoga poses” task, and attempts a downward dog, but with his knees and elbows on the ground. He decides to do that same pose five times, instead of five different poses.

He then decides to check Paul, searching his jacket, and opening it up to reveal that his shirt beneath is covered in tasks. Ray describes Paul as looking like a “task suicide bomber”.

He quickly works his way through a lot of these tasks, all of which turn out to be very quick and easy to complete, including: “Reach up high”, “Bend down low”, “Wave”, “Find something that’s your favourite colour” (he picks one of the task seals, because they are red), “Poke your tongue out”, “Sniff your elbow”, and “Kiss three walls”.

He then gets Paul to completely remove his jacket, and finds even more tasks on his back to complete, including: “Caress a plant”, “Pretend to be electrocuted for seven seconds”, “Passionately sing the colour of your hair”, “Pat yourself on the back”, “Pat your head and rub your tummy”, “Clap”, “Shake hands with Paul”, “Jump”, and “Sit down”.

After his time is over, he finds the task which was attached to the back of his own jacket and reads it out, revealing that it was: “Accurately perform a Shakespeare soliloquy of your choice”.

In the studio, Jeremy likens Ray to a kid in a candy shop, and Ray admits that he “felt like a truffle pig” (thus coining the episode title).

Having completed an impressive 32 tasks, he earns first place.
