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!
[Episode title: "Carpe Diem"]
Bravo!
And here are the five comedians
vying to get their hands
on this magnificent trophy; because they know
it's the only way I'd set foot in their homes:
I'm talking about Marie-Lyne Joncas!
Yes, yes, she deserves that!
Phil Roy!
Mona de Grenoble!
Hello!
Kevin Raphael!
And Tammy Verge!
And he's proof that behind every great man there is
a bald assistant in a fitted suit: Antoine Vézina!
Thank you, Louis.
And, you noticed my designer clothes. ['griffé' can mean 'designer' when referring to clothes, but also means 'scratched']
Yeah, that's 'griffé' [designer]?
It's 'griffé' [scratched] thanks to Marie-Lyne's dog backstage.
Can you put him on a leash next time?
Yeah, sorry about that.
We're playing for some prizes tonight.
Our lovely contestants have brought in the prize items.
The items had to respect a certain theme.
You'll give out points based on how well they did.
Tonight's theme is:
"The best thing you've stolen from someone."
Oh! That's interesting.
And each of them brought something in,
so everyone steals, apparently.
Let's see Phil Roy's item first.
2Frères' [Quebec folk-rock duo] gold record for their first album.
Those guys live near Magog. [city c120 km east of Montreal]
And, at some point, I did a show at Vieux Clocher de Magog [concert hall] one week,
and I had talked to the guys.
I studied music for six years.
So one of them said, "Hey, come jam with us one night."
We went, "bla-bla-bla".
And they went, "You like our music for real?"
I was like, "I have listened to that album so many times."
It's so good.
I really did listen to it often.
And this is in my office.
I have 2Frères' gold record, 'Nous autres' ['Us'].
To clarify: Did they give it to you?
Or you saw it lying around and went,
"Ah, I'm taking that, they don't seem to care about it"?
It's because they have a bunch of them.
Like, you get a gold record...
That particular one was awarded to Énergie. [French language radio station]
Plenty of radio stations get them.
So I just went, "Meh!"
They have a ton of them; for real.
So I have one. - So to the folks at Énergie:
your gold record is at Phil Roy's place.
Uh-oh! - Okay!
Let's see Mona's item, now.
Yes, well... Um, I, uh...
Much like everyone with a mother,
I never paid a fucking dime for a Tupperware container.
Always with the promise of...
"Hey, there's an elastic on there;"
"make sure you return it." Ha, ha, ha!
It's never happened.
I love my mom, but she doesn't catch on the quickest.
In classic Tupperware fashion,
you have more lids than receptacles.
Yep; that tracks.
I'm looking at this, and it looks like...
Was your mother a Tupperware lady?
Ha, ha, ha!
That would explain my look, but no.
Thank you. Let's see Kevin's item.
Yes! It's, uh...
I was at the première of
André the Giant's documentary. [French pro wrestler and actor]
It was in Los Angeles.
I was invited.
And there was a huge poster there.
And I liked it.
So, yo; I took the poster.
I brought it back to the hotel.
I FedExed it to myself.
It cost me $79.
It came in the mail.
I have it at home, now.
Wow!
Kevin, I was certain you'd gone to my place and stolen
a photo of me without make-up on.
I got so scared.
Let's see what loot Tammy the thief brought in!
Yes!
Ah!
This is life-sized.
It's held up by something in the back.
It was at a grocery store. - That's me.
Antoine played a butcher in 2010;
about 10 or 15 years ago.
And, I stole it from the grocery store.
And it's at my house now.
So sometime when I'm bored, I take it out of storage.
But...
But where is it stored in your house?
Well, it folds up. I don't know if you can see it,
but it's creased in the middle. It stores very easily.
It was easy to steal. Very easy.
Finally, Marie-Lyne's item.
Let's see what kind of stuff you steal.
So, this is me in front of
Harry Styles' home in Beverly Hills.
And I went there really incognito.
It was actually quite difficult.
I went through his recycling bin and I got his straw.
I have his straw... Ha, ha!
Ah!
That's in Los Angeles?
That's Los Angeles. Beverly Hills, baby.
So I flew there to see Harry Styles' house.
Then I flew to Germany to see Harry Styles in concert.
I'm not really a big fan, though. I like him as a human.
That's terrifying. - How did you get his address?
Is it listed in the directory?
Ah, well that's easy. You can get the address of any celebrity.
So, that's his house.
Super nice house. $7 million.
But this is actually the important thing.
It's the straw...
She knew it the day...
And... But honestly; for real...
He takes his own garbage out?
He has a $7 million house, but he takes his garbage out?
Well, there was a bin right by it-
Yes, Phil, we do that, too.
Thank you!
So, it's time to give out some points. - Alright, let's do that.
I'll give 5 points to Marie-Lyne, anyway.
There's a bit of mental illness going on there,
but it was touching.
Okay, 5 points.
Because I take some pity on...
thinking about all of the things you could have done with your career,
I'll give 4 points to Tammy.
And I'll give 3 points to the others.
3 points to the others!
And... Oh!
Let's move on to the first task of the evening.
Certainly! A task that brings your two passions together, Taskmaster:
Golf and potatoes.
What?
Over here!
Is this a... a miniputt?
It looks like one, eh?
I'm on my way. Give me a half hour to 45 minutes.
Take your time. - Okay.
Hi! Hey, is this a potato?
Yes!
I like raw potatoes with salt. Do you?
No.
An envelope, a potato...
and a hole.
Oh! Wait, wait, wait! Careful!
Don't step on... the red, please.
We can't step on the red?
Yes, well... it's all clean, there.
Ah, my shoes are, too.
Do you think so? - Of course!
Hmm... - Oops! Oops!
Should I pick up the potato, seeing as I'm already here? Okay!
"Get this potato into the golf hole."
"You may not touch the red green."
"Fastest wins. Your time starts now."
Here we go!
Well, come on. You don't have to scream like that.
There we go!
So, there you are; a potato golf task.
Potato golf.
Get the potato into the hole as quickly as possible.
Just for the folks at home,
when you say, "red green",
you're talking about a green like in golf.
It's a play on words that the team came up with.
Hey, thanks for telling us.
Very good, very good.
They're good, but they're not on this side of the camera.
Let's have a look at Tammy, Mona, and Marie-Lyne's attempts.
Oh, come on!
Uh...
Argh!
Time has started!
This is so dumb.
Uh... Hang on a sec.
This might not work.
But my neighbour's kids had this
when I was living on the South Shore [of Montreal]
and I've always wanted to try this.
So we're gonna try something.
This is purely for fun.
But I had fun. - Good!
I'm going to look for another solution. - Okay.
Can I remove the flag?
I can remove the flag.
She's on the red. - Of course; she touched it.
What? No, I didn't touch it.
Be careful...
Hey, come on now...
Argh! Fuck!
I can't do this anymore.
It's not the destination that's important.
It's the journey.
You see? We're chatting, we're getting along well.
That's true. You're right.
There's a potato here.
No. This one didn't work either.
Oh, no! Come on!
Ugh, I hate myself!
Yes! Great fucking idea!
Ah!
So frustrating!
It's because potatoes aren't round.
Ah, okay.
Oh no. No, no, no!
Fuck! It's not up to par.
Ah, this is going to take so long.
Aaah!
Aaah... Antoine!
Yes?
I can attach this to this.
Like this.
Come on!
Ugh! Aaagh!
Are you filming me with your iPad?
Yes. - Okay.
I'm looking at the time as well.
This is gonna go viral on your socials.
Yes!
Is it in?
That went well.
It's in.
Hmm. - That about does it.
Okay.
That's in the hole?
Well, you know... I wanted to play basketball,
and now I'm playing hockey.
This is hockey?
Ringette. [similar to hockey, but uses straight sticks and a ring]
Stop! Okay!
Oh, I'm pretty unsatisfied with that, though.
I would have loved to have gotten
it in in one shot, you know?
That was fun. I thought it would have taken me longer.
Me too, at some point.
Tammy...
"You may not step on the red..."
Yeah. - It said that, eh?
Yes. You couldn't touch it.
That's it, that's it. - Did you forget?
Sometimes it says stuff but
you're living in the present, Louis.
"Carpe diem", eh?
Seize the day. The impulse of the moment.
That's my explanation for what happened.
You're totally right.
Okay, perfect.
You too, Marie-Lyne... You... you...
Don't make that face. You saw it with your own eyes.
You touched the green.
But, but... - Several times.
Yes but...is it really that you can never, never, never touch it?
Like as in, "may not".
But Mona too?
No, Mona didn't touch it. - I didn't touch it.
There's only one thing I don't respect in life:
my face; by making myself up like this.
But the thing I respect the most is rules. Mm-hmm!
Oh, pfft!
Let's have a look at Phil's attempt.
"Get this potato into the golf hole."
"You may not touch the red green."
Yes, be careful.
Antoine?
Yes?
Could you put this into the hole for me?
Uh... Yes.
You can.
I can't.
Are you sure?
Well, "YOU may not..."
I'm the "you" in there.
I'm pretty smart!
Of course! Of course!
It said, "You may not touch the red green."
But it started with,
"Get this potato."
So I got it there via Antoine. Come on!
When you send a package,
do you physically get it to your destination yourself?
Of course not!
"I sent the package, sir."
"The check is in the mail! I swear! I swear!"
It makes sense!
I don't get it there myself!
Do you guys agree with that?
That was a great idea.
That was very intelligent.
Intelligent and lazy. - Yeah.
You like that, eh?
Best of both worlds! - I respect that!
Perfect! Uh, we haven't seen Kevin's attempt?
Yeah!
I forgot what I did.
Speaking of intelligence and laziness...
We'll see what he did, after the break.
Oh!
Wow!
Let's go!
Bravo!
I think that deserves a second look.
Yes! Yes!
Welcome back to Taskmaster.
Antoine, I'm still thinking about Phil's argument,
but remind us of the rules, please.
So, they had to get a potato into a hole as fast as possible.
Like a game of potato golf.
Without touching the red green.
There's just Kevin's attempt left to see.
Why am I giggling?
Oh!
I haven't touched it.
Okay!
Okay...
Ah!
Yeah!
Hey! Hey, hey, hey!
Hey, hey, hey!
Let's go! Let's go!
Let's go!
Come high-five us, too.
Bravo!
Well, I think that deserves a second look.
Yes! Yes!
What?
Yes!
Oh!
Aaah!
Oh, no!
Oh, no, Kev!
No, no!
You celebrated so hard.
Poor kid.
Kev! Kev!
I'll take that high-five back, man.
I'm sorry.
Oh, no!
You celebrated so much.
Wow, that's humiliating.
So, Kevin touched the red green.
At the moment, Mona is the only one
who successfully completed the task,
depending on what you decide for Phil.
Just Mona and... - I'll give 5 points to Phil and Mona.
And, unfortunately, zero to the others.
5 points for Phil!
Congratulations.
So, who is in the lead?
Mona and Phil are tied!
Oh!
And what are we good for?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh!
We're ready for the second task!
Of course. I wonder if our contestants remember it.
Please... - Hello!
...move slowly to the circle.
Slowly?
Please move slowly to the circle.
Hello!
- Hello?
Hello! - Hello. You're close.
Welcome to the manor.
Don't sit down.
- Okay.
I like your little walk!
Whoops!
Whoops! Whoops! Whoops!
You look nice today.
You look nice.
You look nice today.
Balloons...
Balloons, balls, beads, and billiards...
Shh! Shh!
Shh!
Are you ready?
You look ready.
I'm ready.
There's your task.
You should open it as soon as I leave the room.
Are you having a stroke?
He's losing it, eh?
Experimental theatre.
I don't remember anything he said.
Balloons, beads, and billiards.
What did you just tell me?
I can't hear that again, eh?
Was I supposed to remember everything he said?
"Go to the terrace. You must arrive at the terrace..."
"Go to the study..."
"Go to the terrace."
"You must arrive at the terrace"
"within the minute following Antoine's arrival."
Oh!
This is so dim-witted.
Within the minute following Antoine's arrival.
Oh, come on! He spoke to me...
Hang on. I have to remember these things; I'm sure of it!
Uh... Well, do I have to...
remember any of these things?
Antoine is in the study. Okay.
Okay...
Uh, yeah...
"List all of the things that were hanging"
"from the ceiling in the lab."
"Also, say the colour of the board on the ceiling."
"Also, say what Antoine said to you in the lab."
"Most correct answers wins."
"You have three minutes and you may not leave the terrace."
"Also, your time starts now."
That wasn't so easy.
No!
In the heat of the moment-
Hey! The "carpe diem";
you can't use that strategy here.
That's... That's really clear.
They had to list the objects.
What they saw; what they heard.
And what I said.
These aren't people who listen well, normally.
That's true. That's true.
You're right.
Well, because you weren't talking about me.
Well, let's have a look at all of the ladies,
Tammy, Mona, and Marie-Lyne.
I'm gonna start with the list.
A...
A bottle of mustard.
There were little popsicle stick chairs.
There was a water gun.
There were little red plastic hands.
A little Adirondack chair.
Little clapping hands.
Uh... Like, a mustard container.
A little salt shaker.
It's because I have the short-term memory
of a chinchilla, my dear Antoine.
A peacock feather.
Were there scissors?
There were scissors, eh?
Peacock feathers.
A little wooden chair.
Uh...a gun!
Some rope.
There were... there were little flowers, I think.
Was there a plush animal?
A salt shaker.
Um, um...
There was... it's because I wasn't paying attention.
I tried to remember what you told me.
It was like I was on some kind of drug, with that one.
A pen knife.
And a little plastic goat.
And you said, "Wow! I like your little walk!"
"Hello!"
Hi! - "Welcome to the manor!"
"Walk slowly to the red circle."
Does it have to be in order?
There was... "A ball, billiards". I was in a "manor."
It was dark...
It was nighttime.
"Walk slowly to the..."
"I like your little walk!" "I like your little walk!"
"Billiards, a bead, a ball, balloons"
You named round things.
"You can't sit down."
"Billiards, balloons, beads, balls"
Okay, you don't listen to me.
Well, you should have said...
"Bring your feet here".
You know, like "Put your feet into the circle".
"You look beautiful today."
You said I looked nice.
Yes!
Uh... I remembered... Argh!
Um... "Bye, I'm leaving."
You said something like that.
"Bye, I'm leaving."
I'm telling you; you were speaking
and I wasn't listening at some point.
Look! I'm going to try something. - Go ahead.
The board on the ceiling; ochre.
The colour of the board;
I'd said blueish purple. Like, blue.
The colour on the ceiling...
Antoine, it would have been...
...green.
If I'm not mistaken, I saw Annie Brocoli too, [Quebec singer/children's character]
attached to the board.
She was rigged up.
Ah... I would have liked to have remembered what you said.
Ah, this is so annoying.
Are we done?
Thank you.
Well, you're welcome. I don't feel like I did anything.
You're saying "thank you", but I...
It's not nice to do this to people!
I know. - It's not nice!
Oh!
You don't look satisfied, Taskmaster.
Does she barely listen to you at home, too?
Well, after 20 years of love; that's normal.
"Of love."
So, when you...
Oh, that was rough.
But when you watch it back, ladies...
Would you have chosen a different strategy?
When I came out, I didn't have the time
to encode everything I saw.
But you did quite well with the objects.
You got them all.
It's the auditory attention that wasn't there.
But what he said... I was just waiting for him
to give me the thing.
And I was like, "What is he saying?"
You know, if I could redo it,
of course I'd have been more attentive in the beginning.
Well, we've received a note from your friends saying "Listen".
Ironically, I'm actually a good listener.
Marie-Lyne named eight objects in total.
Oh, that's good!
Tammy; six.
Hey!
Mona; two. - But...
However, for the sentences:
Mona; seven. - Yes.
Tammy; five.
And Marie-Lyne; just one sentence.
Oh! You're very aural, Mona.
Yeah, I'm more aural.
That's how I am.
But enough about me from me.
Louis; you talk about me.
Can we talk about the guys?
Let's have a look at the guys.
Ah, this won't be good.
There was a dinosaur.
There was a water gun.
Pen knife. Chair.
There were little clapping hands.
Little... horse.
There was a bit of paper with...
Like this. For the task.
There was a little horse. The little horse.
There were... ropes.
Pen knife, chair, little horse.
I'll see it if I close my eyes.
There was...
a... kazoo.
It's not working.
So, the board colour was purple.
Uh, the colour was blue.
Do I look like a dude
who looks up a the ceiling when I walk into a room?
"Say what Antoine told you in the lab."
Jesus!
"Are you ready? You look ready."
You told me to approach the red circle slowly.
You said, uh... Aaah!
What you said was pretty confusing.
Damn!
"How are you?"
Did you ask how I was?
No. How are you?
I'm well. Thanks for asking.
I apologise. It's a little late.
Yeah, why didn't you say that in the lab, earlier?
Wait; are you able to give me some hints?
Why would I do that?
Uh... Because I'm nice.
It's true; you are nice.
I'd like to get to know the real Antoine.
He's the one I'm interested in.
I'm happy because I want to talk about... Ah!
That's too bad. We were almost there.
I was about to open up.
Why is his face all over the place?
That's the Taskmaster.
Yeah, but his task is hard.
Oh boy!
It wasn't there, but you
really seemed to have wanted one.
The little horse!
Yay!
The little horse!
It wasn't very impressive.
No! Phil got four objects.
Not bad!
Two for Kevin.
The little horse?
No. Phil got the colour and two sentences.
Oh, really?
And Kevin, just one sentence.
And no; the board wasn't blue.
Okay! So, in sum... - In total, uh...
if we tally all of that up,
Tammy got the highest number of correct answers.
So; 5 points.
Marie-Lyne came in second place.
4.
Mona; third place.
3 points.
Phil... - 2 points.
And finally, Kevin.
With just 1 point.
Bravo!
Who's in the lead now?
Mona is in the lead at the moment!
It's very close!
We'll have more tasks after the break!
A plastic bag...
They had to add as much weight to it
as possible without breaking it.
Your reactions were completely exaggerated.
The bag was super flimsy...
No, no; it was really cheap.
That scale was a piece of crap.
Welcome back to Taskmaster.
We have a new task for you.
A task that's in the bag.
Oh!
My dear Antoine!
Hi!
Intriguing, intriguing.
What's going on, here?
Okay...
Ah-ha!
Mm-hmm...
"Make this plastic bag as heavy as possible."
I could just put my personality in there. Uh...
"You have five minutes,"
"then it must hang from the scale unassisted..."
"...must hang from the scale"
"unassisted for one additional minute."
"Heaviest bag at the end of that minute wins."
"Your time starts now."
So it has to be in the bag?
But, could the bag break?
All of the information is in the task.
Oh, come on!
Okay!
A plastic bag...
They had to add as much weight to it as possible without breaking it.
Your reactions were completely exaggerated.
The bag was super flimsy... - Ah, but that was easy.
No, no, it was...
No, no; it was really cheap.
Your scale was a piece of crap.
Okay, we'll let them complain and start by seeing...
Let's go with... Marie-Lyne, Kevin, and Mona.
Oh boy... I have five minutes.
I'm panicking a little.
I'm going to test something, but this makes no sense.
Hey, this is going to rip, for sure!
Antoine? - Yes?
This is a pretty thin bag, eh?
That's true.
So if I put sharp things in it, it's going to rip.
Yes!
Too heavy; it's going to rip.
We need a protective layer.
And the least sharp thing is water.
I'm getting a little too ambitious, here.
Okay, an exacto knife.
Oh!
What if I made... a second bag?
Come here, my boy!
This is perfect. Okay?
Okay.
So... Oh!
I broke your toy.
Fuck it; that was a bad idea.
So I'm going to put bricks in this jute cover.
And put all of this into the bag, and...
Hey, this bag is super, super thin.
Like joint rolling paper.
Oh, come on!
Ah! I've drowned myself, here.
Ah! Ah! Pfff!
Hey... Hey, daddy! Okay...
It's going very badly.
Pfff!
I'll set the timer for one minute.
It's... started.
Okay!
We're gonna try something!
How long?
50 seconds.
Then, I'll do this.
Okay...
Like this.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Okay.
30 seconds.
That's pretty heavy.
So, your minute has started.
Oh, shit!
Here we go!
I'm the queen of duct tape.
Like this; you see?
It's the hook that's supporting the weight.
It won't pull on the handles.
That's ingenious, I think.
Check it out!
Where there's a will, there's a way.
Stop!
It has to last for a minute.
Don't touch it.
I'm not touching anything. - Ah!
20 seconds left. - I think we're good.
Bro; three bricks in a bag.
Ping-ping-ping-ping-ping!
What's up? - One minute!
I could add another brick to it.
I could have added one more.
15 seconds left.
I don't know if anyone did more than this,
because this is very heavy.
It's very heavy, eh?
And... the minute is over.
Alright.
That's pretty good!
What do you think?
Did you think you had a chance to win it?
Well, I put a bowling ball in there.
Yeah?
And some bricks.
Ping-ping-ping!
I was sure your bag was gonna break, though.
Bro, never underestimate my sacks, bro.
Never!
Stop underestimating his sack!
I don't know what to do with that.
Can we know what our weights were?
Of course!
Okay, sorry...
140 [lbs], but I'm 43% muscle. Go ahead!
Okay, perfect.
20 lbs for Kevin.
22 lbs for Marie-Lyne.
And an impressive 44 lbs of water... - Wow!
...for Mona!
Good job, Mona!
I was smarter than you thought.
That's true.
Ah, thank you. You're sweet, Loulou.
Do you want to see the rest of them?
Oh, I do, too!
After the break!
Oh, geez. I should have worked out more.
All of those years neglecting my abs.
That wouldn't have been a bad idea.
The bag...
Oof!
Thank you! Look how nice they are!
Welcome back to Taskmaster.
Antoine, can you remind me
of the rules for the plastic bag task?
Of course!
They had to make a plastic bag as heavy as possible.
Yes...
Obviously there was a risk of it ripping,
so they had to find the right balance.
They had five minutes to complete the task.
After that, their bag had to hold for an additional minute.
Alright!
So we could register the bag's weight.
Let's see Tammy and Phil's attempts.
Ho, ho, ho...
So, there are bricks and sand, here.
But that's going to pierce it.
Ah, yes. That's a potential problem.
I need something that will distribute evenly...
Yes?
...inside the bag.
After that I could...
...fill the bag up, but with the bag attached to the hook.
One minute.
Me suspended... for one minute.
Oh, geez!
A whole minute?
I'd never make it.
I should have worked out more.
All of those years neglecting my abs.
But now, I'm wondering if I can make a kind of
safety harness for my bag.
I'll never be able to hang from this for a whole minute.
That's wishful thinking.
That wouldn't have been a bad idea.
The bag...
You know? - Ah, I don't hate that.
All of this...
Ah! It's holding.
10 seconds.
Okay, here we go.
One, two, three, go!
Oof!
I'm doing my own stunts.
Five...
Okay... Good effort.
So it has to hold for...
one minute.
Here we go!
You just walked away?
Did you see how far we got? - Yes!
We also got the weight.
125? - Not even.
125 lbs? - Yeah, not even; Tammy.
Not even.
It has to hold for 50 more seconds.
You walked away in anger.
You, like, rage-quit.
Well, it had to hold for a minute.
Uh, Phil's lasted a fraction of a second.
But it was a good idea!
It was a really good idea; I thought!
Your scale was the problem.
My weight wasn't the problem.
It's your scale.
Tammy, I found your performance to be really moving.
I thought you were going to say, "pathetic"...
No! No! Moving.
The bag over the head.
You really gave it your all.
I gave myself over to the bag. I was the weight in the bag.
Right?
But we don't know how long Tammy held on for.
It had to be a minute.
Yes?
We'll have a look.
Okay, here we go!
One, two, three, go!
Oof!
Jesus...
Where's Tom Cruise when we need him?
I'm doing my own stunts. Fucking hell!
No. It's too hard.
Good effort.
16 seconds.
We'll see what Louis thinks.
"We'll see what Louis thinks."
That wasn't a regulation minute.
16 seconds is a quarter of that, Louis.
See that as you will, Taskmaster.
But it's a quarter of the time.
So, was that a fail? - So I'm in second place, in the end?
Amazingly!
With my tiny 22 lbs.
Okay! So, in the end...
Mona got 44 lbs and lasted a minute.
So, 5 points.
Marie-Lyne is in second place,
with 4 points.
Kevin, next, in third place.
With 3 points.
And Phil's and Tammy's
didn't last the additional minute.
So they get zero!
Zero points for Tammy and Phil.
It's okay. I understand.
You just have to accept these things.
And it's...
Mona who is in the lead!
There's one task remaining
and it'll take place in front of our audience when we get back!
Again!
Shicka-TOCK! Shicka-TOCK!
Shicka-TOCK!
Uh... - It's the only sound it makes.
A drill?
A drill?!
You've never worked a day in your life, my man!
Welcome back to Taskmaster.
Antoine!
Is this a remake of "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg"? [1964 French/West German musical]
No! A different kind of task.
Tammy will read the instructions.
What? Wow!
Okay, I'm ready.
"Communicate to the Taskmaster the item on your card."
"You may only make noises."
"You may not use any actions."
"Slowest communicator each round is eliminated."
"Last communicator standing wins."
Why do we have umbrellas?
So...
You'll hold the umbrella out in front of you like this.
It's so you avoid miming the action.
Sounds. So, we're not using words, right?
Only sounds to get him to guess your word.
Slowest is eliminated.
Kevin? If you cheat, I'll eliminate you immediately.
I promise. I'll still try.
At least he's honest.
The first category is:
Animals. - Oh!
Marie-Lyne, please step into the circle.
I'll show you the word.
Tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk!
A rabbit.
Yeah! You got it! - Thank you!
Damn!
Prooh-prooh, prooh-prooh!
Is it a bird?
Prooh-prooh, prooh-prooh!
A pigeon?
Prooh-prooh, prooh-prooh! [A cricket]
A... uh, uh...
Okay, but you get along so well with Kevin; Jesus!
Come on! You're not even trying!
Please!
Prooh-prooh, prooh-prooh!
It's... what makes that sound? A chicken?
Hey, my parking meter's gonna run out soon.
Hurry up!
Come sit. What was it?
A cricket!
Ah, ah... Well, geez!
Sorry, sorry!
Sit down.
How do you do a cricket, Louis Morissette?
No, go ahead. What?
Sit down!
He did a good job.
Mona!
Bbbvvv!
A cow?
What? - A cow?
Bbbvvv!
A whale? [An elephant]
Pff-pff-pff!!
Bbbvvv!
It's an elephant.
Oh yeah, it's an elephant!
An elephant!
That was well done.
She did the stamping, too.
You're really bad at this.
Okay, um...
Ooah! Ooah!
Ooah!
It's his cricket, but psychotic.
Okay, let me start again.
Yeah, start again.
Ooah!
A wolf? [A dolphin]
Yes, is it a wolf?
It's a coyote? It's... - Ooah!
A whale?
A werewolf?
Ah! What did you say?
A whale? An orca? A dolphin?
Stop trying to get him to guess.
Dolphin?
A dolphin?
Dolphin!
Yeah!
That's what it was?
Dolphins don't make that sound.
They do kind of a, "kee-kee-kee-kee"!
Eeh-eeh-eeh-eeh-eeh!
No, but when they come out of the water,
they go, "Ooah!"
It kinda goes... A dolphin goes,
"Eeh-eeh-eeh-eeh-eeh!"
I feel like I don't doubt my own ability;
I doubt his. - He's not good.
And you'd be right to.
Your kids are older, now.
It's been a while, eh, Louis?
Listen up!
Buck-buck-buck-buck!
A chicken?
Yes!
See ya, Phil.
Thank you for taking part.
No problem. It was fun.
Next round: Machines.
We're looking for machines?
Shhh... Shh... Tsh...
Sprinklers.
Uuuuuurgh! [A coffee maker]
Uuuuuurgh!
Tshhh...
A dishwasher?
A washer-dryer?
Tsh cloo-cloo-cloo-cloo!
Cloo-cloo-cloo!
Glug-glug-glug-glug-glug!
A garbage disposer?
A bath that's emptying?
A coffee maker.
A coffee maker? - Yeah!
Wow!
You worked so hard.
I was sure it was a dishwasher at first.
I also thought it was a dishwasher.
Shicka-TOCK!
Again!
Shicka-TOCK! Shicka-TOCK!
[A stapler]
Shicka-TOCK!
Uh... - It's the only sound it makes.
A drill?
A drill?! You've never worked a day in your life, my man!
Shicka-TOCK!
Can it make a different noise?
Shicka-TOCK! No, it only...
It only goes, "Shicka-TOCK"?
A stapler? - Yes!
We were looking for 'stapler'.
I thought it was a nailgun.
I'd like Kev to do his same dolphin noise,
but with "Shicka-TOCK" at the end.
Zoooo...
Foo-hoo-choo!
Psoo... Beep!
A fax machine? - Oh!
He got it?
Fax machine.
Wow!
Impossible!
Wow!
Impossible!
Why did I get that?
They don't even exist anymore!
Seeing how badly he's performed since the beginning;
they understood each other.
Exactly!
They speak the same language.
They come from the same planet.
Exactly!
Tsh-tsh-tsh! Cloo-cloo-cloo!
Sprinklers?
Cloo-cloo-cloo-cloo!
Rrr...
Chucka-chucka-chucka-chucka!
[A helicopter]
A helicopter? - Ha, ha, ha!
Hey, I was about to hyperventilate.
So, the slowest person this round,
who is thus eliminated, is Marie-Lyne.
Oh!
Thank you.
Two rounds!
There are two rounds left!
But my coffee maker was good.
Well done!
Next category: Food.
Food!
Only sounds.
Have you ever eaten anything?
Mmm... [singing "Tarantella Napoletana"]
[singing, "Tarantella Napoletana"]
Pizza? Italian? Uh...
[singing, "Tarantella Napoletana"]
Lasagna? Rigatoni?
Spaghetti? - Spaghetti!
Yeah!
Go ahead!
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch! Crunch! [Cereal]
Iceberg lettuce.
Iceberg lettuce?
Corn?
Ouaah!
In the morning. - Toast?
Eating... Okay, perfect, perfect. Toast?
Cereal.
Toast.
Cereal.
Cereal?
Yes!
Ah!
Oh boy! It's tough!
It's amazing how aggressive
we get doing the same sound over and over.
Pop! Pop! Pop!
Pop-pop-pop! Pop-pop-pop-pop!
Popcorn. - Popcorn!
Yes!
That was easy.
Thank you, Kevin.
His took the longest to guess.
Final round.
I'm getting ready.
Final category:
Instruments.
This will be good.
Ting!
A bell?
A doorbell?
Ting!
An instrument... a triangle?
Yes!
Foo-foo-foo-foo-foo!
Foo-foo-foo! Foo-foo-foo!
Saxophone.
Saxophone? Trumpet?
Foo-foo-foo-foo-foo! [A clarinet]
Flute... Flute... Flute? Recorder?
Foo-foo-foo!
Are we in the right family?
Foo-foo-foo!
Well, I... - Foo-foo-foo!
Well, I think she's already lost it, but...
It's the sound of desperation.
Five more minutes.
Unfortunately, I'm not getting it.
It was a... - Clarinet!
Ah!
You didn't guess that?
Mona wins!
She gets 5 points.
5 points.
Next, 4 points fot Tammy.
Bravo, my friend!
Not bad!
Of course.
Marie-Lyne: 3. Kevin: 2.
And 1 point for... - I still got a point?
For the cricket. - For the help?
Well, you were there.
For participating.
Which means that... - It's close.
We have a winner:
Mona! - Ah!
Of course!
Oh my god, thank you!
Go collect your Tupperware!
Congratulations, Mona!
Thank you, everyone.
Thanks to everyone in the studio.
We'll see you next week
for another episode of Taskmaster!
Thank you!
