Maria uses Babben (sort of)
After confirming with David that she is allowed to use absolutely anything she wants, Maria leaves the lab and returns with her arms full of blankets.
Maria spreads out the largest and puffiest blanket on the table, and then starts placing eggs on top of it, intending to wrap them for protection.
She stacks her remaining blankets on top of her egg blanket, and then starts adding items with actual weight, such as a suitcase and a toy dinosaur (to make it “good-looking”).
Maria then leaves the lab in search of more items, eventually returning with, and adding, a milk crate and several large books.
Maria wisely decides not to put all of the books she has brought with her onto her eggs, believing that they might break. Instead, she then brings Babben’s bust into the lab, and places that on top of her pile, before declaring it complete, and waiting out the rest of her time.
Maria places 26.9kg of weight on the eggs, keeping all of them intact, and earning second place.
