Good evening and welcome to Taskmaster.
My name is Louis Morissette and
I will be... the Taskmaster.
Over the past few weeks, I have devised a series
of tasks for five beloved comedians to complete.
Together, we'll find out what they did, and how they did it.
Eww!
As the Taskmaster, I will assign 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.
[Episode title: "Achoo."]
Ah...
Thank you!
And here are the five comedians who will be with us all season!
He's not afraid of looking ridiculous,
and that's not coming from us;
his tattoo artist said so: Phil Roy!
If she doesn't win this season,
I know an assistant who is going to end up
living in my basement: Tammy Verge!
She's the winner of "Celebrity Big Brother";
I can't wait to see how she'll fare with
actual celebrities: Mona de Grenoble!
Her best drinking buddy was
the winner of [LMdJ] season 1. [Ève Côté and Marie-Lyne form the comedy duo, "Les Grandes Crues"]
So, like her blood alcohol level, the pressure on her
is sky high: Marie-Lyne Joncas!
And each season, there's always one comedian who makes us wonder:
"Who is this guy? I don't know him."
"Where did he come from? What's he doing here?"
This season, it's Kevin Raphael!
And, to my assistant, now.
He's like my son.
Except he doesn't have an absent mother:
Antoine Vézina!
Ah... Thank you. Oh, I'd so love to be your son, Louis. Seriously.
Ah, no need to suck up. You're already in my will.
Really?
Yes! - Okay...
Watch: he's going to get into a little accident while leaving today.
It's a plan.
What are they playing for today?
Well, daddy... today...
...as always, our comedians
contributed to the prize pool.
They had to bring in
the creepiest, scariest item they own.
You will score them on their items as usual.
We'll start with... Marie-Lyne.
Sorry.
What?!
That's your son.
Who is... Who is, by the way, half my age.
Eh? 18 plus 18, adds up to my age; 36.
He smokes. I went to his place,
got under his actual sheets.
Yeah, that's actually his home.
In the middle of a heatwave.
Body to body.
Ah, and he doesn't wash those sheets often, I can tell you.
No...
But...
Then I asked myself this question afterwards:
"Is there anything creepier than what you're looking at, there?"
I don't think so.
Louis, if it helps,
I can tell you
that Justin doesn't actually smoke.
Look at the way he's holding the cigarette;
That's not a smoker.
Yeah, yeah.
Wow, that was fun.
Yeah, and... it's like he
isn't daring to touch you, fully... - No, he isn't.
...with his little left hand, there...
Well, if it helps,
he's also not attracted
to Marie-Lyne.
The way he's holding her:
That's not someone who's enjoying himself.
Well, you can discuss all of this next Christmas.
I'll be in tight with the family by then.
I imagine that... - We love each other. -...you'll see each other then.
Let's have a look at what Kevin brought in.
Oh!
Yeah, I have this at home.
But, that's not creepy, that's nice. - That's really nice.
What do you mean, it's not creepy?
It's in my kitchen.
It's my girlfriend's, okay?
She bought that. Every morning,
I eat in front of this gorilla
who is staring me down.
Nothing is creepier
than this goddamn gorilla.
Well, how big is it?
It's as big as... a lot.
Is it, like, life-sized?
It's panic-sized.
Panic-sized.
But Kevin, [Mario] Adornetto is a well-known artist.
I don't know who this 'patnè' is [Haitian Creole slang for 'friend']
but he needs to change animals.
Yo, I'm eating my cereal
I'm eating my rice,
I'm eating... The thing is looking at me
like he wants a bite.
Cereal and rice. Please make a note of that.
That the creepiest thing in your life?
Yo, I'm a church-going man.
So...
Oh my god,
I'm going to burst into flames.
Don't look him in the eye.
Okay...
Interesting.
Let's see what Phil brought in
for the prize task today.
Ah...
Oh my god!
So, I'd like to...
I'd like to make clear
that that's my daughter.
That was the first Santa Claus she'd ever met.
Who is it?
Yeah but he's terrifying!
It was the... It was at... at her daycare.
And, rest assured:
we switched daycares afterwards.
But the person who was supposed
to come dressed up as Santa Claus
didn't show up.
So Ikram's - the daycare owner's dad - dressed up.
But he's a short little dude who is about this tall.
Oh come on!
And he's not at all like Santa Claus.
And he was, like: "Well, come on!"
All of the kids were like: "I think I'll skip my turn."
But Kev: I had the photo
blown up this big.
Every morning we eat in front of it.
I tell my daughter:
"Sometimes, life can be scary. You see?!"
Let's have a look at Mona's now.
Yes! Here, my Kevin. THIS is scary.
This is a picture that I had at home.
Basically it used to be normal picture of a grandmother and her granddaughter.
But as time went on, I started to notice
that things kept being added to the scene.
And not by me.
I don't have a roommate, I don't have...
I don't know what happened,
but this is how it looks now.
What?
Yes, I find that petrifying.
It's really cool.
If I'm not mistaken,
someone stuck an image of
my mouth onto it.
And who is the little girl in the background?
She was a regular girl, and she turned into a demon.
Uh... My friends are weird. We drink a fair amount, you see.
So, look; this is what happens.
So, let's say I win tonight's episode.
I can take that home for real? - I don't want it back.
Oh yeah. We're gonna hang it up in Kevin's kitchen, for sure!
No... Bro, man. - In the gorilla's place.
Okay, well that was very creepy.
There's just one entry left. Tammy's.
A human offering. But not mine.
Is that magic mushroom?
No, no. - What is it? - I've never tasted it.
It's my eldest's dried umbilical cord.
That's disgusting!
Oh, come on!
That's disgusting!
It's the link that connected me to him!
And how many years have you had this?
He's 26.
Yuck! - That's disgusting!
Those are human remains.
You have to score them, Louis.
The scariest, most frightening thing?
I have to give Tammy the 5 points.
Five points!
I'm giving Mona 4 points.
Thank you, Taskmaster...
Very scary.
3 points to Phil.
Yes, oooh!
2 points for Marie-Lyne
and 1 for Kevin.
2 points for Marie-Lyne
and 1 for Kevin.
Tammy is in the lead!
But I was in your son's arms!
I don't want you at our Christmas party.
Another task, Taskmaster?
Yes, let's keep it going with the first task proper.
A very, very exciting task!
Hey!
Yeah...
That's funny; I took my blood pressure just this week.
How was it?
Disastrous.
This? You hate this.
It's a blood pressure monitor thingie?
That stuff scares you.
Ah, you're uncomfortable, now.
Let me introduce myself:
My name is Dr. Roy.
Yes, I know who you are.
I'll be treating you today.
Hmm...
What? What's the problem?
I'm not well.
"Excite Antoine."
Excuse me?
What does it say?
"Excite Antoine. Greatest..."
"Excite Antoine."
What?
You know I'm a man-eater, eh?
"Excite Antoine."
"Greatest increase in Antoine's heart rate wins."
Sorry, do we have the right to refuse?
"Excite Antoine."
"Excite Antoine. Greatest increase in Antoine's heart rate wins."
"You have 20 minutes."
"Your time starts now."
20 minutes?
That's a long time.
Well, yeah, but I like that...
Anyhow...
Simple.
"Excite Antoine."
Exactly.
So we're agreed that
there's a conflict of interest, here.
Well, obviously, Tammy has a head-start, here...
Not necessarily! He knows me by heart.
There's less of the element of surprise.
It's true that novelty can be alluring.
Yes!
Don't give up, babe.
So essentially, they had to
elevate your heart rate?
Yes! We took a reading
at the beginning and at the end of the task,
and the greatest increase will win.
So, let's see how Kevin, Phil, and Mona
attempted to excite me.
69?
Ah? That's actually... good.
Beats per minute.
72! Ah, that's already an increase. Okay, good.
Let's say, I put shrink-wrap around your head;
your heart would certainly
beat quickly before it stopped?
Ah, that excited me a little.
Are you excited?
57. Come on, you're messing with me.
What if I scared you?
Would that elevate your heart rate?
Yeah, I'm starting to get nervous.
Ah...
Look, I'm just gonna...
I'm going to secure you to your chair, okay?
And after that, Auntie is going to treat you like a common object.
I can't really say that I'm excited.
Yeah, that's it...
Ah, 70. - Wait.
This over your face. - Okay.
Oh... Ah... This is exciting, right?
These little sounds?
Now...
I'll do anything you want, okay?
It's $5 per minute.
Is that good?
Yes.
Wait, I need to tap, here.
Yo, this is ridiculous, man.
Oooh!
It looks so good on you... Ah! Oh!
It didn't work! Fuck!
He was scared, there. 55.
Shit! You've gotta be kidding!
Try to get out.
Push! I need you to get out, now.
Push, my boy!
I'm going to break!
Push! Go! Tear it!
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh!
Oh! Yes! Yes! Move! Move!
Now, you're going to... you're going to jog;
you're gonna run these three sets of steps, there.
Oh, you see?! This task turned out
way less perverted than I thought, in the end.
Move! Up high! Higher! Ooh! Pump that heart, pump that heart!
Pump that heart! Ah! Ah! Ah!
Okay, now, run over here all the way to this end,
and we'll take your little reading, my man.
Ah! Woohoohoo! Woo!
89.
Let's go!
116. What were we at before?
76? I am satisfied.
That's the story of my life.
When someone sees me, they're excited.
And then in the end, they're disappointed.
Hey, sorry. I wasn't listening to you.
I'm so...
I'm really...
116?
She made him run!
Phil, would you like to explain your strategy?
I focused on excitation
instead of figuring out that
it's the heart rate that had to increase.
But...
That's it; I'm not very exciting.
But you went for fear, too, and it was working...
No, it wasn't working.
That big difference you achieved was amazing.
I also went for a big difference; but in the wrong direction.
That was my problem.
Well, I still need to hear the results.
Absolutely. So, uh...
Kevin increased my heart rate by
15 beats per minute.
Damn...I thought that was good.
Yes... Mona,
an increase of 40. - That's huge.
Wow!
She went from 76 to 116.
Running was a brilliant idea. I thought I was gonna die.
And Phil, decreased my heart rate by 14 beats per minute.
And... And it continued to decrease.
Now you know, if one day you find yourself
having a panic attack or something; call me.
I'll calm you down.
Okay, Okay. Stop speaking to Antoine.
His pulse is fading, here. He's dead.
We're going to take a break. And when we return:
the favoured contestant in this task; Tammy.
I'm looking forward to seeing how she'll excite her Antoine.
And me? - Boo, Antoine! Boo!
So for you two, your idea of excitement at home is
"Tell me a joke and put your head down"?
We tell each other jokes. We laugh it up.
It's so funny to see each other naked, eh, Antoine?
Ah, completely nude... completely nude?
We... we look funny.
Welcome back to Taskmaster
and a very exciting task.
So, uh...
For me!
For... us all!
Ah yes! But especially for me!
Because our lovely contestants
had to raise my heart rate
as much as possible.
We've already seen Mona, Kev and... Phil... Phil...
We're going to see Marie-Lyne Joncas and your wife, next.
And Tammy! Let's have a look.
How do you feel?
I have to excite you?
I have to... This is making you uncomfortable.
That you have to excite me, uh...
in front of cameras? I don't know.
Okay, 70. You know that that's close to...
A dead person is, at, like
68, 69.
I'm at 80.
You're at 80.
I'm already nervous.
I'm uncomfortable.
I don't know what to do.
I can do whatever I want?
Well...
Yes and no.
There's a mic, there, Tammy. - It's alright. I know.
I'm freezing. I'm frozen.
Stop, Antoine!
What's going on?
Relax.
No, don't relax.
You're doing exactly what Mona did.
Really?
You're looking at the difference?
Now, I think you need to jump without stopping.
Jump, jump, jump!
Come on, jump, jump, jump!
Okay, okay, okay...
Okay, you're tickling me.
Tell me the joke about the penguins.
There's a guy on his balcony. - Faster, faster! Yes!
He sees a guy while on his balcony... - Yes.
No... No, no, no. Come on,
what are you doing?
He sees one of his friends arrive with a pick-up truck.
Yes. Okay, that's perfect. - There's a ton of penguins
...in the truck's bed. - Excellent.
"What are you doing, there?" "Well, we found some penguins."
Let go of my machine!
That's cute!
You have a sweet bond!
"Well, take them to the zoo!"
No, no, no. Ouch!
The next day, the same guy arrives with the pick-up truck. - And?
All of the penguins are wearing sunglasses. - Yeah.
He says: "What? What are you doing? You didn't bring them to the zoo?"
He said: "Yes! They loved it. Now we're headed to the beach."
Okay, go, go, Put your head down!
I'm not... Okay, okay.
Wait! If I move too much, the machine won't work.
Stop, stop!
80.
Yay! I'm gonna stop there. - You're over.
You're way too relaxed.
You have some drool, there.
70 to 80? Perfect.
What else do you want me to do to rile him up?
91.
Ah, an increase of 11.
Do you think viewers will write to me
on the internet saying that I assaulted you?
Because I was screaming, "No!" and trying to get away?
Marie-Lyne, I think you allowed us to see
the real Antoine Vézina.
When you tickled him...
He didn't like that, eh,
the slight physical contact?
Well, when it's you, it's different.
However, uh... you two,
your idea of excitement at home is
"Tell me a joke and put your head down"? It's...
We tell each other jokes. We laugh it up.
It's so funny to see
each other naked, eh, Antoine?
Ah, completely naked... completely naked?
We.. we look funny.
Uh... So, Marie-Lyne increased my heart rate by 10 beats per minute
And, uh... nightmares.
Tammy, 11 beats per minute more.
11...
So, the scoring will follow from those increments.
Our winner is...
Mona!
So, 5 points for Mona.
Kevin in second place.
Kevin: second, with four.
Tammy: 3 points for your plus 11.
Marie-Lyne: two.
And...
Come on, what's wrong with me?
Phiiiil...
You're relaxed.
Do we give him a point?
What do we do, Taskmaster?
Yeah alright, the pity point.
The pity point!
And at the moment
Mona is in the lead!
Yes! But we're just getting started!
Let's move immediately to the second task of the evening.
Oh! And I hope that you won't be allergic to this task, Louis.
Hmmm...
Hi, hello, you.
"Sneeze. Fastest wins."
"Your time starts now."
"Sneeze..."
Achoo! Achoo!
Ah... For real?
Sorry. What...
"Sneeze. Fastest wins. Your time starts now."
Ah... choo!
What are you trying to do?
I'm sneezing.
You know...
I was up all night last night sneezing.
Ah, the pollen has been horrible these days.
Ah... choo!
Okay, you don't believe me?
Well, I... Were those real?
Yes!
No, they weren't real. Oh no, oh no!
"Your time starts now."
Here we go.
Achoo.
So, a very simple task...
They had to produce a genuine sneeze as fast as possible.
No, no. - No, no. Kev, you're not doing this now.
Don't even start.
You're not going to be "achooing" throughout, there.
Bro! It said: "Sneeze."
For real, though.
It didn't say: "For real". It said: "Sneeze."
Achoo!
Okay, we're going to leave Kevin for later on.
Yes, please.
For now, we're gonna see
Phil, Tammy, and Marie-Lyne.
Oh no...
Pepper? Okay.
Come on. When I cook this usually works.
Ah, this isn't gonna do anything.
Oh, yes...
Ah, I got some in there.
I really went for it.
Ouch! Ugh!
Ugh! I can't do it!
This isn't the right kind of pepper. Come on!
What kind of pepper would you need?
Well, I don't know.
Pepper... It seems like that works at home.
They say that pepper makes people sneeze.
That's a lie.
What are you doing, there?
I'm pulling on these little hairs.
Sometimes, it... it kinda...
Ah! I feel it coming!
This is weird.
No, no, no.
Ugh, it's in my nose.
It's everywhere.
Yeah, you really got it everywhere.
It's all over me.
What's the theory behind this?
That the light will... You know, sometimes people
try to help themselves sneeze, like this.
Oh, come on!
You're terrifying. - Me too.
We can see that your nose is impeccable, anyhow.
Yeah?
Yeah, it's very nice.
Well, for sure. I got rid of all of the hairs, earlier.
You did a good job.
Maybe if I pull on all of them.
All of this; out of context...
Even with context, I'd say...
Okay, this isn't working.
It's like I'll never sneeze, ever. It hurts too much.
Is... Is it bubbling up?
Is there...
Well, I can feel it, for real.
No joke, there's a little... There's a growing "something."
Ugh, you're the only person I can show this to.
Ah, there's actually quite a lot, there.
Ah, I didn't think I'd ever experience this.
Ah, it just hurts.
It just really hurts.
I've inserted a lot of things like this into my orifices.
Doesn't seem like a good idea.
It tickles.
Oh...
It could happen.
I'm just thinking about how
you're going to ask your wife to do this.
You... you're getting her into some strange scenes.
Come on! Come on!
Yeah, but...
But it's not getting into anything. It's just going into my mouth.
I won't sneeze...Go...
Okay...
There'd have to be a cold breeze.
A cold breeze?
Hey, it really tastes like pepper, eh?
The pepper problem hasn't gone away.
Oh yeah, waft... Waft the pepper around.
I can't do it.
Achoo!
5 minutes 11.
Aaah... Achoo!
9 minutes 10.
And our relationship is rekindled.
Do you want me to call you if I sneeze sometime
over the next few days?
That would be the idea, so we could record a time.
That's the first time I've faked anything.
I, I... I meant at the beginning. Not now, not now.
No, not now?
No.
It's been a pleasure.
The only thing left for me to say is: "Bless you."
Ah! Thank you!
Is that... the hand that was in your nose for...
It's your choice.
...several minutes?
Yes, both hands.
Honestly, it was so hard.
Well, at the very least,
I have to say that you really tried your hardest.
It hurt.
It hurt?
It really hurt. Pepper stuck in your throat.
And then it feels like it's all the way up your sinuses, too.
It's hot...
For hours.
For hours!
But...
It was tough.
...unfortunately, those were three fails. I didn't believe
your attempts for a second, Phil and Tammy.
Ah, you didn't think their sneezes were real?
Not at all. Come on, you didn't sneeze for real. Stop it!
Hey, I managed to do it for real, in the end, but it took me 9 minutes.
No, no, no. I didn't believe it for a second.
It... There won't be a single point given for that.
For the three of you...
Uh, excuse me, Louis. Uh...
Marie-Lyne took the time, this summer, to call me.
Ah, like she..
One time... Well, of course we kept the message.
If you'd like to take a look.
Antoine, wait!
Achoo! Ah!
It's done! Bye!
You... You said you'd do it.
36 days, 8 hours, and 22 minutes.
She's taken the lead!
That's not so bad.
Well I have the best time so far.
Well, in 36 days... You're the fastest so far.
Bravo, congratulations, Marie-Lyne.
We're going to take a break.
When we come back, we'll have a look at "Achoo", over there.
Achoo...
Well, "Sneeze."
Achoo, achoo!
Well, hang on.
"Sneeze," Kev.
Achoo!
Good evening! Welcome to "Découverte". [Canadian popular science TV show].
Today, five comedians had to try to sneeze
before your very eyes. Very scientific.
Yes. So we've seen Phil, Tammy, and, uh... via video technology, Marie-Lyne.
Marie-Lyne who... is in the lead.
Absolutely. Except that she took...
36 days, however.
...36 days.
There's Mona and Kevin left to see.
Let's focus on Kevin.
Achoo!
That, for you, is a real sneeze, or a fake sneeze?
Well, achoo!
Achoo...
Well, "Sneeze."
Achoo, achoo!
Well, hang on. "Sneeze," Kev.
Achoo!
Achoo, achoo!
I don't get it...
Wait. Let me re-read it, now. - Okay.
"Sneeze."
"Fastest wins." - Mhmm.
"Your time starts now."
So that is...
Okay, so it's the quickest sneeze that wins?
"Sneeze. Fastest wins."
Choo!
I got it! Choo! Choo!
"Sneeze. Fastest wins."
Fuck!
Achoo! Achoo! I...
Achoo, achoo!
I went "achoo" when I started.
Okay, we'll say one second, then.
Good! So, I won the task.
"So, I won the task."
I'm crying. That made me cry,
Kevin...
That's extraordinary, Kev.
Now that you've seen how committed your friends here were,
that they almost burnt their noses for this
do you feel a little badly?
Bro... For real, man...
My bad, I'm sorry.
You've got me.
Because I...
Okay, I'm going admit to something, alright?
I didn't watch season 1. I didn't know how this worked.
So when I started filming, here, that was one of the first tasks.
It said, "Sneeze."
I said: "Kev, this is some easy money, here: Achoo!"
So, I was sure I'd be number one!
"Achoo! Achoo!" And, there's one thing I...
I don't know if I'm alone in this...
But I say: "Atchoom!"
"Achoo" I've never heard before.
"Achoo," is [Haitian] Creole for "Task failed".
This is the only performance of mine this season for which I won't argue with you.
I'm not going to try to defend myself.
Taskmaster, we still have Mona's attempt to see.
Okay! I'm not quite sure how exactly to do this.
It has never worked on me.
Uh...
Were you familiar with this in the '80s?
No, I'm not gonna do that. Um...
Bring your little hand over here.
You're going to blow this onto me.
Not directly into my face, I have make-up on. Just like...
Have it brush past my nostrils.
When you say blow...
Well, you know, blow it...
Jesus Christ... Again!
It's not super effective. Ha! Hold on a sec,
I can feel one coming.
Get your finger ready over the "pause" button.
Hang on...
Achoo!
There!
Achoo! It's usually 12 in a row.
Say what you will, but I'm in the mood for a steak.
See, you got it! - Wow!
2 minutes 22.
Congratulations, Mona.
We filmed that during peak allergy season.
And I'm also allergic to cats, and I have two of them.
And, uh.. my cats sleep on my outfits at night. So all of that helped.
You come quickly! You come quickly.
Ah, I'm the weak link in human evolution because of my allergies.
But they helped; at least for this episode.
We have to score them.
Well, clearly, 5 points to Mona. - Thank you, thank you!
5 points to Mona.
Marie-Lyne, 36 days...
4 points for Marie-Lyne.
4 points.
Are you giving out any points for effort?
Well, in all seriousness,
I think that Tammy and Phil
really... - threw themselves into it! ...set themselves apart
with their attempts. So, I'll give them each 2 points.
2 points each.
Yes!
Take one away from him!
Achoooooo [signs "zero"]...
Mona is still in the lead!
Yes, bravo! - Bravo!
I can't lose!
I'm impressed.
I'm a winner.
Let's move on to the next task.
Yes! A fun, but stressful, task.
Ooh-ooh!
Ah?
Toys!
Whippets! [marshmallow chocolate cookies]
Once again, what a great place to commit a murder. I love it.
"Make all of these things happen at the same time:"
"The monsters must be squatting."
These? - Yes! - These can squat?
"The robot must be walking." Okay.
"One marble must..." Great.
"One marble must be rolling."
"The balls on the pendulum must be clicking."
Hey, this is gonna be tough.
"The sand must be falling."
"The top must be spinning."
"The [fidget] spinner must be spinning. The candles must be out."
"Clap when you think you have finished. Fastest wins."
"Your time starts now."
Phil, start.
A game of skill.
This one was fun.
A slightly more complex task. - Exactly.
I hope that Kevin won't just go, "bing, bing, bing".
I'm guessing that everyone came up with their own strategy before starting?
Yes!
Um... Not really. Alright, we're gonna see Phil...
Damn it!
...Kevin, and Mona.
So, the monster has to...
The robot has to walk.
One marble has to roll.
How long does this take?
Zoom!
Ah, it's not starting off well.
The balls on the pendulum must be clicking.
Well, this clicks for a while, actually.
How does this squat?
Is this a squat?
That's a squat.
I'm going to start with these little monsters. Okay? Ah!
Yo, I've never played with these kinds of toys before, man.
Do you have a plan, Mona?
A plan? That's what I need-Ah!
No, I have no plan!
I don't know what lasts the longest amount of time.
Oh shit! Oh shit!
Oh! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Bing, bang...
Bing, bing...
Nooo!
It's still spinning.
It's still spinning?
This... This... This...
This..
And... this.
Okay.
Ah shit! Ah! I broke it...
These candles are annoying.
I'm seeing little white dots shooting out of them.
This... This...
Argh!
Aaah! It's not working.
Why is it exploding? What are these Satanic things?
Okay. One, two, three.
Check this out, my Antoine.
You've never seen a drag queen as intelligent as this.
Go!
One, two...
Now, these dumbass little things.
Just wait.
WAIT!
But where do I put them?
Oh! Give me your hand.
Okay.
Some movement, here.
Stay there, my big girl.
Oh! Oh! I've got this shit, now.
I've got this shit.
Okay, quickly, quickly, quickly.
Oh no, these little assholes are going to blow, now. Oh no!
The candles.
Assholes!
Great.
You've given me ones that don't go out, eh?
It was out.
It relit because of the wind.
This is still spinning. This...
I won!
Thank you, Mona. - Thanks, Antoine.
Yeesh...
Oh... Lord.
Just because you tried to convince us that you won,
doesn't mean you actually won.
Well, by saying it really loudly, I figured:
"They're sure to believe me at some point."
So, now that you've seen the replay: was there a strategy?
Well, the candles could remain unlit, if I've understood correctly.
That's what was brillant.
They had to...
So, we have no times because...
No times. Nobody has succeeded so far.
Oh!
After the break, Tammy Verge and Marie-Lyne Joncas.
Fuck.
I'm getting all mixed up.
You have to lick it. Yuck!
I put too many things in my mouth. Yuck!
Welcome back to Taskmaster,
and a task that demanded speed and organisation.
Yes! - That's what women have.
Yes, we have that, we women.
Yes, because the others - Phil, Kevin, and Mona -
failed to make all of the toys go at the same time.
Let's see if the ladies are better organised. - Mona came close,
but since she's not an actual woman...
The toys saw through her.
Let's have a look at...
The toys could tell!
...Tammy and Marie-Lyne's attempts.
The time has started!
This is the robot.
What? "Squatting?" What's "squatting"?
Squats.
Okay... One, two.
Oh, that was fast!
Okay! We're gonna test some things.
We're gonna test it.
These, I'll activate at the last minute.
This is... This will last a long time.
So if I start this, I'll have 30 seconds to do everything.
This will be... I'll have it in my hands. Oh, no!
But it's this thing that's annoying me.
Oh, it's not annoying me anymore. Okay.
Well... I have to wait until the candles go out.
All of this has to happen after the candles go out.
The candles have to be out?
That's annoying.
So, we have to wait until the end?
Oh! Well, I could make them go out myself.
Oh, I'm such a moron!
I'll blow them out at the end.
Oh... my... god.
Ah!
Okay, it's...
What? It just keeps relighting?
Okay this... is ridiculous. Oh, this is... not fair.
These don't go out.
How did that go?
So far, it's going really well.
So far, I'm happy.
Come on, go!
Come on!
Fast, fast! Oh! Oh!
I got it! Oh! Oh, oh! Oh...
Ah...
Fuck.
I'm all mixed up, now.
You have to lick it. Yuck!
I put too many things in my mouth. Yuck!
I have to do the difficult ones at the end, here.
I'm not complicated.
Look, we're gonna fix this issue right from the start.
Of course!
Come on! Come on!
It's these guys who annoy me.
Yes!
Good job!
Candles, candles!
Did I get that? Yes!
Wow!
Bravo!
We did it!
Impressive.
We did it!
I'm impressed.
My assistant just brought to my attention that...
What?!
...the task said that the balls had to be clicking.
Oh no.
Oh!
Your balls weren't clicking.
Do you want me to click my 'boules' [breasts] together for you? ['boules' can mean 'balls' or 'breasts']
I'll make you see reason, my friend.
Click, click, click!
♪ Can you hear the clicka-clicka-clong-cling ♪
Let's have a look.
Let's see it.
Were they clicking?
Ah...
Tragic.
Of course.
Hey, I tried so hard, there.
So, the Taskmaster will be the one to decide.
So, I'll go with 5 points for Marie-Lyne.
5 points for Marie-Lyne. She's the only one who succeeded.
Bravo, bravo, bravo!
But...
Yes?
Given the effort...
And really... It was more of an oversight than anything else,
because you had the time to do it. I'll give 3 points to Tammy.
3 points to Tammy.
That's definitely better than zero.
And then, zero points to the other three.
Zero for the other three.
Before we see the final task, who is in the lead?
Mona is still in the lead! - Oh wow!
But all of that can change, because after the break,
we'll complete the final task live in front of our studio audience.
Oooh!
I don't like it when Antoine comes home smelling of things.
I just want to remind you that
I got him way more excited than you knew how to do. Okay.
Welcome back to Taskmaster and the final task of the evening.
Antoine, can you explain to us why our contestants are wearing
a dishwashing glove... a half-sausage, half-dishwashing glove on their hand?
Well, all of the information is... in the task. And, uh...
I'll remind you: Mona is in the lead, but just by one point over
Marie-Lyne and Tammy.
Oh!
Oh, okay, there's hope.
And what about us? Are we still in the running?
Ah! You've decided to play, anyway?
Are you able to open this with your sausage-glove...
Uh, yes, use your other hand. Open this.
Don't touch him! I'm gonna be in that area afterward.
I don't like it when Antoine comes home smelling of things.
I just want to remind you that
I got him way more excited than you knew how to do. Okay.
"Touch the skin of the person in front of you"
"with either a finger or a sausage."
"If the person you touched doesn't correctly guess if they were"
"touched with a finger or a sausage, they are eliminated."
"Last person standing wins."
One player will stand here, blindfolded.
The person behind them will decide:
"Will I touch them with my finger or a sausage?"
What a great idea!
You'll touch them.
And the person facing the Taskmaster will say,
"I think that I was touched by a sausage."
If you're right, you stay in the game.
We'll keep rotating.
If you make a mistake, you are eliminated.
Warm it up between your thighs.
What is he doing?
We're warming them up.
The sausages are cold.
Yeah, but... You can't cook them, either.
Ah, it's true.. I'm extremely hot.
Mona, let's go.
Come on, you old widow.
Ah, I'm mourning my husband.
Close your eyes.
Turn towards the Taskmaster.
He didn't listen at all.
Close your eyes. Cover...
I'm excited.
I have a bunch of sausages in my hand.
I feel like I'm at the Cabaret Mado. [Montreal Drag bar]
Get ready!
What?
Marie-Lyne is going to touch you.
She'll decide with what.
You have to touch skin.
You need to touch skin.
Touch his nape.
Well, now, my god, go for it. Don't be shy.
I did it. I touched him.
Is it a finger, or...
A finger.
It was a sausage.
Oh no!
Eliminated!
Marie-Lyne, you can cover your eyes.
Ah, was it a sausage?
Who's behind me there?
Kevin.
Okay, he won't have a strategy.
That was a sausage.
Ah...
You got it!
Okay, you're still in the game, Marie-Lyne. Tammy...
Touch Kevin's skin with a finger or a sausage.
That is a good finger.
Yes!
You got it!
Am I eliminated? - I know my fingers. - No.
If you guess correctly, you remain in the game.
Okay.
Finger or sausage?
That was a sausage.
It was my finger.
No! - It was!
You're out, Tammy!
Eliminated!
Come, my friend, it's alright.
Hey, he barely touched me!
You were not very generous, Phil.
Yeah, I barely felt anything.
Okay, Phil.
Marie-Lyne, it's your turn.
That was your finger.
Yes!
Correct!
Kevin.
I don't understand.
It was your finger.
Argh!
Get into position, Phil.
Hmmm...
I think that was... your finger?
Yes!
Yeah! Marie-Lyne.
We're gonna be here until 10pm.
I think my head was pushed by a sausage.
No!
Oooh!
Ah, well. Oh!
Okay, did you do it? - Yes!
Yes, yes!
Oh... Well now, okay...
It was a sausage?
No, it's my finger!
It's my finger! Yeah! I won!
We have a winner.
It's Kevin Raphael,
a.k.a, "Achoo".
"Achoo" all day.
So, Kevin, 5 points.
And points for the others in order of their elimination.
Go on.
Mona was in the lead before the final task.
But it's Marie-Lyne who wins the episode!
You can come and claim the prizes.
Congratulations, Marie-Lyne!
We'll see you next week for another episode of Taskmaster.
Thanks so much, everyone! Bravo!
