Task brief

The task brief is laid on a table in the garden, between the pool and the shed. The brief for the task is as follows:

Make the best ventriloquist dummy [and be seduced by it].

Most seductive ventriloquist dummy wins.

You have 30 minutes, and your scene must last at least 30 seconds.

Your time starts now.

Task notes

Part of the reading of the task brief appears to have been edited out in favour of showing several of the contestants misreading ‘ventríloquo’ (ventriloquist) as ‘ventrículo’ (ventricle). Based on the remainder of the task brief seen being read, though, it can be safely assumed that the missing part of the first line is ‘and be seduced by it’.
