Aaron becomes a rustic mini-bar, capable of love


When Aaron comes into the study with an old wooden step ladder, Tom Cashman asks him if he is out of breath. Aaron initially says no, before asking if he is allowed to be, then admitting that he is.
Aaron decides to become a mini-bar, and so starts gathering various drinks and snacks the desk, while naming them. After Tom urges him to call the Fanta a “generic orange drink”, rather than naming the brand, Aaron then refers to the milk as “generic white drink”, and Tom has to tell him that he can just say ‘milk’.
Tom is seen entering the study, saying “Wow, I’m so thirsty after a long day. I need something now from my stylish yet functional mini bar.” Aaron is shown standing in the middle of a step-ladder, to which he has added a cardboard door.
Tom opens the door to the mini-bar to find a variety of drinks and snacks balanced on the rungs of the ladder. When Aaron says “Oh my god!”, Tom points out that the mini-bar talks, and then Aaron claims that it also has internet access.
Aaron tells Tom to have a drink, suggesting that he tries the “white one”. When Tom says that the white one had been spilled earlier, Aaron says “Don’t cry over spilled milk”, before noting that the mini-bar also tells jokes.
After Aaron then says he can add anything else to the mini-bar that Tom wants, Tom asks if it can love, so Aaron reaches his arm around the door and hugs him.
When Tom stands back up, the cardboard door falls off, so Aaron quickly claims that it’s detachable by design.
In the studio, Tom Gleeson asks Aaron what was stylish about the mini-bar. Aaron starts out by saying “It’s rustic…”, but has nothing more to add, so just says “I could go on.”
When awarding points, Tom says that Aaron’s mini-bar was neither functional nor stylish, so Aaron earns just 1 point.
