Everyone names names and snacks on grapes

Antoine begins the game by nominating Phil. Phil names Jean-Lou Duval, eats a grape, and then nominates Tammy. Tammy names Annie Brocoli, eats a grape, and then nominates Kevin. Kevin names Bibi, eats a grape, and then nominates Marie-Lyne. Marie-Lyne names Caillou, eats a grape, and then nominates Kevin. Sticking with the show Caillou, Kevin names another character, Mousseline. After eating his grape, he nominates Marie-Lyne. Marie-Lyne then names Valence Declerc. Aalthough Louis is not familiar with this character, the other contestants are able to name the relevant show, Dans une galaxie près de chez vous (‘In a Galaxy Near You’). Marie-Lyne then eats a grape and nominates Mona. Mona names Fardoche, eats a grape, and nominates Tammy. Sticking with the show in which Mona’s character appeared (Passe-Partout), Tammy then names one of the puppet characters, Cannelle, before accidentally saying her own name, and then eating a grape. Although naming herself wasn’t explicitly against the rules, she is eliminated for carrying out the actions in the incorrect order. Antoine then informs the remaining contestants that if they choose to nominate Tammy on their turn, they will also immediately be eliminated.

Restarting the game, Antoine nominates Mona. Mona names Bébéatrice, nominates Marie-Lyne, and then eats a grape, so she is also eliminated for getting the order of the actions wrong. She continues to snack on her bowl of grapes, while the game continues.

Restarting the game again, Antoine nominates Marie-Lyne. Marie-Lyne names Alakazou, eats a grape, and then nominates Kevin (while choking on the grape). Kevin names “Bob with Hair”, eats a grape, and nominates Phil. Phil names Fanfreluche, eats a grape, and then nominates Kevin. Kevin names the show Bananas in Pyjamas, leading to an objection from Marie-Lyne that this was not the name of the characters in the show. Phil agrees with her objection, stating that the characters were actually named ‘B1’ and ‘B2’. The audience cheers, and Louis declares Kevin to have been eliminated.

Starting the final round of the game, Antoine nominates Phil. Phil names Passe-montagne, eats a grape, and names Marie-Lyne. Marie-Lyne names Pruneau, eats a grape, and names Phil. Phil insists that Pruneau had already been named, but both Marie-Lyne and Mona remind him that it was actually Cannelle who had previously been mentioned (the two characters are puppet siblings). Phil then names Fanreluche, a repeat of the name he’d said in the prior round (about which Marie-Lyne is quick to remind him). Phil is therefore eliminated, and Marie-Lyne wins the task.
