Rhys rigs up a proper pulley system

After reading the task brief, Rhys shares that their first thought is that they don’t want to be on the show anymore, and that their second thought is that they would like a lot of rope.

As Rhys and Tom Cashman collect some rope from the shed, Rhys comments “Jesus Christ, what are you doing in this house that you need this much rope?”.

As Rhys stabs a hole into one of the frisbees and then threads some rope through it, Tom asks them if they have had much experience with knots. Rhys says they have not, and were never involved in the Scouts, which they describe as “a reason to hang out with men in their 40s”. When Tom asks if that interests them, Rhys says that it does a little bit more, these days.

Rhys threads the rope through the caravan, then moves a distance away with the frisbee attached to the rope in one hand, and a lot more slack rope in the other hand. Rhys then throws the frisbee up in the air, before running away from the caravan while holding the loose end of the rope. As Rhys runs across the grass, the frisbee is pulled along the ground in the opposite direction, towards the caravan.

After confirming with Tom that the frisbee had gone into the caravan, Rhys begins to sob, before falling to their knees. When Tom asks why they are upset, they sob “it went in”. When Tom then thanks Rhys as they walk away, they respond by shouting “Fuck off!”.

In the studio, when Tom Gleeson asks Aaron how Rhys’ rope mechanism had compared to his own effort, Aaron questions whether it was cheating.

Rhys points out that at no point had they attempted to throw a frisbee into the caravan.

It is revealed that when Rhys had thrown the frisbee, they were standing 34.8 metres away from the caravan, so Rhys wins the task and earns 5 points.
