Episode synopsis
In this episode, the contestants must bring in the most exciting thing that starts with ‘G’, physically recreate a classic video game, feed their teammate(s) the most watermelon, make something spin for the longest, and communicate pictures by drawing on their teammates’ backs.
Title context
During the ‘Feed your team-mate(s) the most watermelon’ task, Phil Roy remarks that Mona de Grenoble looks like “the bad guy in Spider-Man with all the arms”, leading Mona to cackle and provide the name Phil can’t remember: “Doctor Octopus”.
Assistant Intro
If there were a prize for best assistant, he'd present it: Antoine Vézina!
Note: In response to this burn, Antoine gives as good as he gets, stating that if such an award actually existed, Louis’ wife, Véro (Véronique Cloutier) is certain that Louis himself would win it (Véro is much more famous than Louis is).
