Leo’s little tail

After reading the first line of the task brief, Leo grins and asks Olli, “Are you the pig?”, thus coining the episode title.

He walks through the house in search of the pig, walking directly past it several times, and even bumping into it twice. He wonders out loud if finding the pig is actually the task, before he finally finds it.

Leo then rolls out a very long piece of marzipan on the table in the lab. When Olli asks if he has any sort of strategy, Leo replies that he does not, and that he’s just kneading the dough a little bit.

He curls the majority of it up for transport, holding up the end in preparation to hang it from the pig, as he leaves the lab. However, before he can reach the pig, his marzipan breaks, so he turns right back around.

Leo does not seem to modify his tail design at all while back inside the lab - he just seems to stick the broken piece back on.

As his final seconds tick down, Leo starts to hang his long tail on the pig. When it breaks again, he quickly attaches just the small broken piece of marzipan he is holding to the back of the pig, just so that he has something to be evaluated on.

For ‘modifying’ his tail outside of the lab, Leo is disqualified from the task.
