Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring in the thing that would feel the best if sat on while in a suitcase, get a ball into a basket in the most bounces, measure the perimeter of the caravan in beans, keep their tongue out for as long as possible, lead a group of ducklings to their lake, and catch as many socks as possible.

The guest contestant in this episode is Gisela João.

Title context

Cândido Costa tells two crew members to “think like a funnel” during the ‘Get the ball into the basket with the most bounces’ task.

Taskmaster Intro

Good evening, good evening. Good evening here at the studio. Good evening to you at home. And welcome to the weekly therapy session of self-mockery. A gourmet all-you-can eat disaster that we call Taskmaster!

Assistant Intro

This restaurant has as a server, always ready to serve our contestants, and who eventually always ends up being swallowed by said contestants. A legend of restaurants and bakeries in the eyes of the customers. Express your love for Nuno Markl!

Taskmaster's Sign-off

You only live once, and may your happiness never go AWOL.
So get a bucket, and then get a bouncing ball.
Measure in centimetres? Only in past scenes.
What’s trendy now is measurements with red beans.
If ‘yes’ means ‘no’ when someone’s head throbs,
Either he’s a Bulgarian citizen, or neurosurgeon was his job.
I’ll say goodbye with Gabriela’s words, a lesson for you all.

Note: At the end of his poem, Vasco groans like Gabriela did during the ‘Keep your tongue out as long as possible’ task.
