Sue’s unusual plea

In the living room, Sue correctly labels the right-most red switch as ‘Danger’, and makes no secret about how tempted she is to touch the switch, even going so far as to lift the plastic cover. When the cover snaps back down unexpectedly, Sue justifies her labelling of the switch as dangerous, pointing out that it had almost injured her hand.

While Sue plays with some of the switches, she keeps coming back to the right red switch, wondering out loud if it is actually a bluff, and instead controls something pleasurable, like leaves.

In the lab, Sue starts the task in the UV light, and is almost immediately hit with a pile of leaves.

She initially balances tees on their sides on several of the shelves.

At some point, as she is balancing tees while vibrating, the sound of her name starts playing, and Sue tells Alex that she doesn’t want to hear her own name. She also confesses to having farted (possibly as a joke, because the smoke machine had just turned on, but it’s also possible the vibrations had simply dislodged some gas). At this point, all of the lights also turn off, and a laughing Sue ends up begging Alex not to “make me fart in the dark listening to my own name” (Greg later says, in the studio, that this quote is “the greatest thing that’s ever been said on this show”).

Sue then switches up her balancing method by stabbing the pointy end of the golf tees into the shelves, to help keep them in place.

Greg rejects Sue’s stabbing technique as balancing, which results in her being credited with balancing no tees. However, she is also subsequently disqualified from the task, when it is revealed that she had flipped the ‘Danger’ switch.
