Episode prize

The prize in this episode is the contents of the unopened third package from the ‘Create an entertaining gameshow’ task, since neither team had picked it during the task. It turns out to be a metal detector.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

What have we learned? Well, rat points are bad points. Read your letters properly. And megabilliards is here to stay.

Note: Babben is referring to the task briefs, when she mentions ‘letters’.
