Kojey’s premature drum solo

As Kojey arrives at the dome, Alex instructs him to “Please enter the space ball”.

After reading the task brief, Kojey says “Huh?”, thus coining the episode title.

Kojey has some trouble understanding the scale on the cat feeder dial, setting it to ‘50’ apparently under the misunderstanding that the numbers represent seconds, and being puzzled when the dial does not start visibly moving.

Continuing to realise his fantasy of feeding Alex, Kojey asks him to chew the bubble gum for him, which Alex agrees to, but then admits that he can’t actually blow bubbles. Kojey therefore asks Alex to spit the gum out, stating “You sicken me”.

Announcing his intention to manually set off all of the items, Kojey likens it to a drum solo, which he then mimes, with vocal percussion.

He then flicks the switch, starting the inflation of the balloon, and doesn’t seem to realise that he is able to switch it back off again, so it bursts with more than 3 minutes still left on the clock.

Kojey sets off the monster, and then the jack-in-the-box, before popping open the cat feeder (though this is not shown) and setting off the party popper. The toaster then pops up, before he sets off the cuckoo clock, and then blows and pops the bubble gum (which is now in his own mouth).

As the cuckoo clock continues to play its tinny version of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star/The ABC Song, he starts rapping the alphabet along to it. After Alex confirms that “Everything has popped”, Kojey responds “Except my career”.

In the studio, Alex reveals that Kojey had managed to make everything pop within a window of 3 minutes and 31 seconds, which earns him fourth place.
