• Inês reveals that what she brought in was actually her second choice, as she was too embarrassed to leave the house with her initial choice. A short conversation with Nuno about the object implies that it was a comically large dildo. What Inês ends up bringing as a prize is a used nappy she found in her car (Inês has a toddler). Vasco awards Inês joint second place, but only three points.
• Gilmário brings in a pair of his boxer shorts that has a hole in it. He explains that it’s embarrassing because he still hasn’t replaced them, and must come up with a new excuse as to why he didn’t realise he was wearing worn-out underwear every time he changes clothes in front of wardrobe staff. He also implies that the way he got the hole is too embarrassing to even reveal on the show. Vasco awards Gilmário joint second place, but only three points.
• Jessica brings in a hair curler by the brand BaByliss, which actually looks an awful lot like a sex toy. As with all of the other prizes, Vasco does not find the hair curler to be particularly embarrassing, and awards Jessica joint second place, but only three points.
• Toy brings in an LP of his from 1989. He is embarrassed by the picture of him that serves as the LP cover, because he thinks he looks an awful lot like his aunt, and always has to explain that it is in fact a picture of himself. Nuno says that he thinks the picture of Toy looks like a singer named Sandra (specifically referencing her 1985 song Maria Magdalena), and there is a decent resemblance. Vasco does not find the LP particularly embarrassing, but understands why Toy does, and awards Toy first place, but only four points.
• Fernando reveals that Taskmaster is shot in the same studio as O Preco Certo (the Portuguese version of The Price is Right, which Fernando hosts), and that people will often bring him gifts, which he will usually share with the show’s crew. What Fernando brings to Taskmaster is the remains of presunto, a type of smoked ham – all that’s left is a bone and a bit of meat. Vasco awards Fernando third place, but only two points.
