Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring in the most brilliant thing that pops up, rotate a pulper wheel without breaking an egg, free themselves and have a team hug, set the parameters for their own task, and imitate accents and walks.

Title context

Frankie Boyle asked the question "So it's just a kind of blind Schrödinger's egg?", during the 'Rotate the pulper wheel without pulping the egg' task.

Alternate Titles
