Episode 6: Sweet Navel Orange
Episode synopsis
In this episode the contestants must bring in the best thing to have on a desert island, complete a 'fortune trail' and flip five heads with a coin, become a superhero, pat Paul on the back, and accurately follow the Taskmaster's orders. In a thrilling tie-breaker, two contestants compete to pop their corks the furthest.
Title context
'Sweet Navel Orange' is how Chris Parker describes the taste of Paul Williams' urine, during the 'The best thing to have on a desert island' prize task.
Taskmaster Intro
Kia ora koutou. Welcome to Taskmaster, the show that tests just how stretchy comedians' brains can get.
Note: 'Kia ora koutou' is Māori for 'Hello everyone'.
Assistant Intro
My assistant ― and sometimes facial hairdresser ― has been there, making sure they complete the tasks to the best of their abilities. Please welcome said assistant and scissor-man Paul Williams.
Taskmaster's Sign-off
And that ends our episode. We saw a life-changing experience over the flip of a coin, a revolutionary new treatment for being a dickhead, and Paul Williams finally getting the pat on the back that he deserves. But we mostly saw that our winner for episode six is Chris Parker!
