Episode synopsis
In this episode, the contestants must bring in their most botched work, roll an egg a certain distance, write down how many beads are in a jar, identify who is at the bottom of a pool of muddy water, and fill a bin with balls while bouncing a balloon.
Title context
“There are a thousand beads in the glass” was the penultimate line of the task brief in the ‘Write down how many beads are in the jar’ task, which baffles several of the contestants. It cannot be attributed to any particular member of the cast.
