Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring in the best thing they’ve stolen from someone’s house, get a potato into a golf hole, survive a surprise memory test, make a plastic bag as heavy as possible, and communicate things to the Taskmaster using only sounds.

Title context

“Carpe diem” is uttered by Tammy Verge while trying to justify having forgotten the rules during the ‘Get the potato in the golf hole’ task.

Taskmaster Intro

Good evening! My name is Louis Morissette, and I am the Taskmaster. Over the past few weeks, I have devised a series of tasks for five beloved comedians to complete. Together, we'll discover what they did, and how they did it. As the Taskmaster, I'll hand out points to the most deserving contestants based on highly subjective and ambiguous criteria. The winner of the season will take home the greatest prize in television history: a replica of my head in gold!

Assistant Intro

He’s proof that behind every great man there is a bald assistant in a fitted suit: Antoine Vézina!
