• Inês makes a smart decision to walk briskly instead of running (to save air) while making a low humming noise. Unfortunately, she only walks a few steps before she inadvertently stops humming (which she blames on nodules on her throat). Inês travels 4.3m and earns fifth place.
• Toy seems to misunderstand the task as “travel as far as you can while making a noise” without realising that the task is over once the noise has been interrupted as opposed to deliberately stopped. Toy runs, and makes a closed-mouth humming noise that Gilmário later points out sounds like an unknown weird car model in a high gear. He actually gets as far as the Taskmaster pool before he takes a breath, but continues running. He does not realise that Nuno is no longer following him, and continues to run through the Taskmaster house yard, making a full lap back to the starting point. When he passes Nuno for a second lap, Nuno attempts to inform Toy that the task has ended, but Toy continues to push on. Toy gives up on what appears to be his third lap of the grounds. Toy travels a total of 413m – only 45.3m of which actually counted – and earns first place.
• Jessica runs while making an open-mouthed “aaaaaah” noise, managing to run as far as the Taskmaster pool. She stops when she runs out of breath. Embarrassed by her performance, Jessica claims that she is sick. Jessica travels 44.5m and earns second place.
• Gilmário runs quickly while making a quiet, high-pitched “aaaaah” noise (Nuno refers to him as an “African Pavarotti”). He manages to run just past the shed before stopping. Gilmário travels 32.7m and earns fourth place.
• Jorge jogs while clicking his tongue in an attempt to beat box. He manages to get as far as the Taskmaster pool before Nuno declares that there was a “larger pause” in the beat boxing. Jorge argues that he actually stopped several meters later, and requests VAR. After arguing for a bit with Nuno, the two agree to split the difference in distance. After some more debate in the studio over the cadence of beat boxing – and whether to accept Nuno’s measurement or the compromised distance – Vasco declares that Nuno’s measurement is the one that stands. Jorge travels 42.3m (as opposed to the 47 that would have been travelled per the compromise) and earns third place.
