Good evening. My name is Louis Morissette,
and I am the Taskmaster.
Over the past few weeks,
I have devised a series of tasks
for five beloved comedians to complete.
Together, we'll discover what they did, and how they did it.
As the Taskmaster, I'll hand out points
to the most deserving contestants,
based on highly subjective and ambiguous criteria.
The winner of the season will take home
the greatest prize in television history:
a replica of my head... in gold!
[Episode title: Masketi]
Thank you! Thank you!
Please welcome this season's comedians.
I love them like my children,
in that I'm constantly telling them
they should have stayed in school.
Tammy Verge! - Oh! Good evening!
Mona de Grenoble!
Hi!
Kevin Raphael!
Marie-Lyne Joncas!
And Phil Roy!
Let me introduce you to my assistant.
I love him more than I love my pet,
because he is done shedding:
Antoine Vézina!
Thank you! Hey! Oh, no! Hmm...
Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!
Antoine, Antoine.
What was that?
I have to kiss him later. What is it?
They're dog treats.
Yuck!
Do you want one?
No! Mmm! Mmm!
That's going to end up on OnlyFans.
He's adorable.
The prizes, Taskmaster?
The prizes for this week.
The prizes that our comedians brought in.
Absolutely. But they had to fit a particular theme.
You'll have to score them.
This is the first task of the evening.
And tonight, they had to bring in
the most slippery thing that they own.
Oh yes. - Okay, yes.
Let's see what Kevin brought in.
What's slippery at his place?
Of course! Of course! Of course!
Castor oil?
The Haitians know it!
Masketi [castor] oil!
Allow me to educate the people.
Castor oil is for when you're feeling pain anywhere on your body.
You put some Masketi oil on it.
Headache? Back pain?
Compound fracture?
Just put some Masketi oil on it. - That slides on.
Your neck hurts? You've broken something?
Masketi oil, bro!
Your feet hurt?
Masketi oil!
Your back hurts?
Masketi oil!
Your knees hurt?
Masketi oil!
Thank you!
Thanks, bro!
A nice prize. A nice prize.
Let's see what Mona brought in.
My version of Masketi oil is the script from my first 60-minute show.
["My First Heat", script and notes, latest draft: 10 July 2023]
Because it contains a lot of slippery slope subjects.
Don't bring your kids.
Okay, a bit of self-promotion, there.
Yeah, I was about to say that.
Let's see Tammy's, now!
Yes!
The most slippery thing.
This is the most slippery thing in my house.
Caught in Lapointe Lake.
I sacrificed and defrosted it for Taskmaster.
What did you do with it afterward? - And it's very slippery.
Thank you, Tammy.
Very good.
Let's see Phil's item.
[last episode] It's my girlfriend's. It's Virginie's.
She said that it's something she wears around her neck.
When I went away on tour, she wore it,
and she said it felt like I was holding her..
I need to explain something.
That's so fucking dumb!
I need. I need to explain something.
Marie-Lyne won it last episode.
My girlfriend bought herself a new one.
For when you're not around. - The king of callbacks.
The other day I got home
earlier than expected from my tour. Louis...
It wasn't around her neck?
I know what it's for, now!
Masketi oil, bro!
Uh... alright.
Marie-Lyne. She's the only one left to see.
So mine's not complicated.
It's my asscrack after boxing.
It's quite slippery.
And seeing as I can't offer up a body part as a prize,
because it would be insane to saw off-
To scalp your asscrack. - Yeah.
So I'm offering up my boxer shorts.
It's slippery. - It's really slippery in that area.
So, a slippery asscrack.
We need some points!
5 for Phil. - 5 for Phil!
Yeah! - 5 for Phil?
5 for Kevin, too. - 5 for Kevin.
Masketi oil!
I'm giving... - Hey, hey!
And I'll give 3 points to the others.
3 points to the other three.
Oh! Congrats!
Congrats!
Masketi oil!
I really hope I win.
We're ready for the first real task of the evening.
We'll take it slow. Step by step.
What's this?
Hey!
Looks like a shoe, doesn't it?
My respects.
Yeah! A shoe. I like shoes.
A little... A little shoe. It's so cute! Okay!
This isn't a comfortable shoe.
"Record the highest number..."
Oh, it's a foot thingie. Oh!
"Record the highest number on this pedometer."
"You have 20 minutes."
"Your time starts now!"
I imagine I can take this off.
Okay! So we don't actually care about the little shoe.
Do you shake this?
Oh, yeah.
Okay! The highest number.
But where's the pedometer?
Is it this? - Yes!
Do I have to do it like this?
Uh, it's up to you.
Hey! Hey!
Okay, hang on a sec.
So, let's review.
Yes. They had a pedometer. - A pedometer.
To record their steps.
They had 20 minutes to record
the highest number possible.
Okay. Please tell me that Kevin and Tammy
ended up understanding that the pedometer
wasn't the entire shoe?
We didn't want to damage the production material.
Exactly!
If it's presented together, maybe the pieces are glued to each other.
It would have been fine.
We would have healed it with Masketi.
Yes! - Masketi.
Well, listen, we're going to have a look at Kevin's approach,
and Phil's as well.
Do we have a dog somewhere that I can make run?
A dog?
There's a... Goose!
Goose!
Your plan is to catch a goose?
Well, yo, it's better than doing this.
Oh! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...
He's taking the table with him, too. - He's carrying the table!
Is it going up?
No.
Aw. That would have been amazing.
So there's, like, a ball in there.
Like a bead.
Mr. Goose... Mr. Goose?
Oh... Argh!
This won't work.
But... I didn't know geese could fly?!
Ah!
Argh!
And?
I think it's working.
Do you want to tap for a bit?
Can I? - Of course. Come on!
I just wanna try it. I want...
Tap it like you would a bass guitar.
Yeah. I'm a righty, though.
Ti-gi-di-gi-dim!
Ah, that's not bad.
Oh!
Oh! It's a double step.
Look! A double step!
That's doubling it? - Yes!
♪ Ti-gi-li-gi-lim ♪
♪ Li-li-ling-ling-ling ♪
♪ Fa-la-fa-la-li ♪
♪ La-la-li-la-la-li ♪
♪ The soil ♪
The soil!
Soil!
♪ I don't know how to swim ♪
I can't hear you, gang.
♪ I nearly drowned ♪
Hey! Hey!
Antoine! Antoine!
I'll be back, okay? - Yeah, no problem.
Can you leave your timer here?
Yeah.
Do you mind turning the cameras off when you're done?
Oh, no worries.
Ciao! Go ahead.
Hey! Hey!
Shake that booty!
Yeah!
Oh, fuck.
Ba-la-la-la-la!
Ba-la-la-la! Wan-daw! Ba-la-la-la! Wan-daw!
Ba-la-la-la! Waw-waw!
Five...
Four...

Two...
One...
Time's up!
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Two... One... Stop!
Stop, stop! Stop!
Not bad, eh?
Oh my goodness. - I'm crying.
The best was, "Ta-na-na, folklore."
"Terroir"! [Soil]
Well, look, we've put together...
We've made you into a band.
Wow!
Both of you together.

That's excellent. - That's excellent.
But when Kevin realised that he could break the rules
by removing it from the shoe.
He took it off the shoe and went, "Whoa!"
Whoa!
He was so happy.
What a revelation!
Guys, it was hard.
The guy who thought he was gonna catch a goose
with a table and a bucket.
So, that's the day you learned that geese can fly?
Well, I saw it!
Did you think they migrated to Mexico on foot?
Well, by bus. Greyhound.
I didn't know geese migrated to Mexico, man!
I think you're gonna need some Masketi for your ego, tonight.
Just a little on here and you're done!
Hey, they're having fun.
That's what's most important.
Two wonderful attempts.
We need some numbers, here.
So, we got 2,516 steps for Kevin.
Oh! Not bad!
And 2,552 for Phil.
What?
Let's see Tammy and Marie-Lyne's attempts.
How long do I have to do this for?
20 minutes?
Can I... I don't have to leave the pedometer on...
Hey, this is gonna be long;
20 minutes of this nonsense.
What could I do?
You know, this...
It's not that my bicep is burning up,
but it's hurting a little.
I imagine you can switch arms.
I'm tiring this one out first. - Ah!
Yeah!
So, your plan is to do that for 20 minutes?
I'm thinking about it.
I'm cogitating throughout, Antoine.
Ah!
Because I'm thinking about what could be faster
than what I'm doing right now.
Does it have to move forward?
On this?
Let's see...
Okay, now I'm at 147.
No, no, no, no.
I'm at 147.
That did nothing.
I can tell you that my right arm is stronger.
Okay.
Ah! I feel like I'm...
There you go...
It's not working.
Not a single step, my friends. Not a single step.
Oh! I've got it!
So, throwing it with the hose?
202. No?
Just make it spin around. - Okay.
I'll try with the blender. - Okay.
Do you have a spare one of these?
Uh... no.
And no spare blender, either. - Okay!
Zip ties!
Okay!
So, the pedometer is inside the glove?
You put tape on the blade, so nothing bad can happen.
No, no.
It's very, very, uh... - Okay.
You have 16 minutes left. - 16 minutes?
16 minutes is going to be long.
251! It didn't even move!
A motor!
Shake, purée, smoothie?
Ah! Ha, ha!
Okay, I've just taped up the pedometer.
Put that in the trunk.
Okay, I'm putting this in the trunk.
In the trunk.
We found you a production vehicle.
Yes!
Manual.
Yes, it's been a while since I've driven manual.
I can't guarantee anything, but I think it'll be...
Okay, and this will just hang out the back?
This will just hang out the back.
I'm maximising my chances.
I get it.
Oh! The brakes don't work!
Aaah!
I just mixed up the brake and the accelerator. Whoa!
I was confused. It was confusing.
It smells a little like fire.
Yeah, exactly.
Okay! 1,786, we said?
Yes! One minute.
1,813.
I'm not sure if this is working.
I can't see the hose.
Well, look... - 30 seconds!
If I can get it to 2,000, I'll be pretty pleased.
But that'll be difficult.
But I had fun.
Yes! - You?
Tremendously.
Three seconds... Two... One.
20 minutes! Stop!
When are you meant to be getting your license back?
Did they tell you that when you lost it?
Look, worst case, I can walk.
Very good! Thank you, Tammy.
Hey, thanks.
Interesting, eh?
I imagine you're the one providing the lifts at home?
No, not at all. - No, no! I drive very, very well.
It had been a very long time since I'd driven manual.
There are three pedals. I'd forgotten that.
And then I got confused between... - Yes, and there's a round thing, too.
The round thing.
It's confusing! - It's confusing.
One thing at a time. - Yes, yes.
Hey, Marie-Lyne, I have to say,
it was a good idea.
It might have worked.
I think there was a bead inside of it that counted
the steps and it just might have been going too fast,
so the bead would get stuck. - I tried everything.
You know, the... you have the... 'Smoothie' setting...
'Crush'... 'Crushed ice'... all of that.
But it went too fast.
At the moment, Phil is in the lead with 2,552 steps.
Marie-Lyne: 1,981.
Like the film ["1981"] by Ricardo Trogi [Québécois film-maker]. In his memory.
And Tammy: 2,304!
Oh!
That's not too bad.
Mona's attempt is the only one remaining. Let's have a look.
Maybe using an object that bounces...
Or like this.
I'm a homosexual, you know.
I have a trained wrist. We won't go there.
I'm going to find an object.
Ah! I'm not sure.
Oh!
What is that?
I found a jigsaw.
Oh my god.
Ah, this is gonna be good, my man.
Me and power tools?
Well, the jigsaw... - It goes back and forth.
...it bounces. So I've oriented it such that it'll count the steps.
How suspenseful is this?
People are wondering, "Is that gonna work?"
"Is that not going to work?"
Hey! A jigsaw...
Daddy's gonna be proud, that's for sure.
There! Are you ready? - Yes.
Oh my god!
That worked.
I'm gonna take a little break, if that's okay.
Ah! Thank you!
Isn't this great? - Cheers! - Cheers!
Yeah, eh? It's so nice out.
Yes, I feel fulfilled.
All of this beneath the sweet sound of a jigsaw.
Okay, bravo!
Wow!
Eh? Eh?
I'm saying, "Well done",
but did the same thing that happened
to Marie-Lyne, happen there?
Was it just going too fast?
Well, for Mona, we counted...
3,352 steps!
Great job!
Should we give them points based on the number of steps?
Yes! Go ahead.
So, 5 points for Mona.
4 points for Phil.
3 for Kevin.
2 for Tammy.
And 1 little point for Marie-Lyne.
Aw...
We'll give Marie-Lyne some time to console herself.
We'll be back after the break!
I'm very, very impressed
with my colleague's performance.
I don't remember what I did, but I know it wasn't that.
Welcome back to Taskmaster,
the show in which, as Mona demonstrated,
being lazy can pay off.
I was able to have a cocktail.
Absolutely.
Phil is in the lead at the moment.
Really? Wow!
Bravo!
But... The night is young.
Are we ready for the second task?
Yes, but watch out; it's a quick one.
Get eggs-cited.
Ready or not, here I come!
Ha, ha, ha! Oh, yes, eggs!
Yeah!
Okay...
Antoine!
Tammy.
Hello!
I love this.
Can I open this?
Of course!
Okay, great.
Great.
"Pull this napkin off this table."
"Most left unbroken on the table wins."
Okay, "Pull this napkin off..."
Yes. Read all of the words.
"Pull this napkin off this table."
"Most intact eggs left on the table wins."
"You have one attempt,"
"and you may not tamper with the table,"
"the napkin, or the eggs."
"You may not tamper with the table,"
"the napkin, or the eggs."
Okay... So, it's... It's like...
"Your time starts..."
I'm just gonna move this over here.
"...now!"
That was a hard one!
Can you explain to us what they had to do?
Of course! So, there was a napkin there, and some eggs.
You had to remove the napkin from under the eggs,
and leave the greatest number of intact eggs on the table.
There you go! Simple! - Simple?
It's not... - Okay...
I don't usually do this, Louis.
You're the Taskmaster.
Ah!
Oh!
But since it's so easy...
The Taskmaster will show you how it's done.
Oh my god.
But what about the carpet?
Can I get a tarp to... - No, no! He's gonna do it.
They'll stay on the table. - Because it's simple.
Yes, that's it.
Because it's so simple.
You're not getting out of this.
No, but once and for all, you're going to shut them up, Taskmaster.
No, but it's true.
We had 12 of them. [they actually had 10]
It's easy! It's easy!
Once and for all!
Shall we go?
Louis! Louis! Louis!
Woo!
Not bad!
Four!
That's my Taskmaster!
Not bad!
You're too kind.
We're gonna see everyone but Tammy.
Okay, it's fairly simple.
I can't tamper with anything.
But then again... tampering with a table?
Do I look like a fucking carpenter?
Ah... geez...
Okay, this is about angles.
It's about which side you pull.
Just one corner?
Well... Yes?
I have one go, so I can take my time.
Oi-oi-oi...
Why did I say yes to all of this?
Do I... Cha! Eh?
One attempt.
If I do it like this, I'm going against the...
chicken ovum's... natural roll.
So, if I do it this way, going with the natural roll,
in theory, they should roll onto each other,
and potentially stay on the table. Right?
Wow! Of course.
Okay, I'm gonna do it like this.
Pfff! Worst case, I lose.
This isn't my attempt. I'm still holding it.
Well... Yes, okay.
Oh...
It has to be super quick.
Oh!
Hey!
Just two!
And there wasn't too much movement, there.
That's true.
Am I the best?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
Nine? "Neuf oeufs?" [Nine eggs?] [rhyming 'neuf' and 'oeufs', but they only rhyme when 'oeuf' is singular]
How does he do it?
Uh... One, two, three, four, five.
There are some here! There are some here.
To the left, to the right, to the right!
Yes, two... - Yeah, but they're...
Is that on the table, for you?
For sure. They're touching the table.
Okay, here I go.
Tres, dos, uno... Hey!
Eh, eh!
Ha, ha, ha! I won.
Wow!
But your thing about the orientation of the rotation of the egg...
Yeah!
Don't tell me you didn't believe it. It's brillant.
An egg is shaped lengthwise...
It's an oval. "Ovum", "oval", okay?
If you pull it via its length,
the egg will go pa-kling-pa-kling! You see?
It'll fuck right off the table.
If you pull it the way it naturally rolls,
the napkin rolls underneath the eggs.
The eggs just go spin-spin-spin; they stay on the table.
That's science.
I have to admit that... - You got two, so...
I understood it better, Mona,
when you weren't explaining it.
We're learning things, here. - Tons of things.
Yes!
I'm very, very impressed with my colleagues' performance.
I don't remember what I did,
but I know it wasn't that.
Let's stop talking about it...
Let's see it. - Yes.
Ha, ha... I've always fantasised about doing this.
I'm thrilled to have this opportunity.
I might be able to move the eggs a little...
"You have one attempt."
"You may not tamper with the table, the napkin, or the eggs."
But I can reposition the eggs... to my advantage.
Ah!
For sure, but...
"Pull this napkin off this table."
Well, I mean...
There's nothing stopping me from...
"Pull this napkin off this table."
"Most intact eggs left on the table wins."
Well, that's not a bad idea.
So how was your fantasy?
Pretty disappointing.
There you go!
That was it.
That's it!
Taskmaster! Taskmaster!
I didn't get to live out one of my fantasies.
Can you go over the wording again, please?
Of course. "Pull this napkin off this table."
"Most intact eggs left on the table wins."
"You have one attempt,"
"and you may not tamper with the table,"
"the napkin, or the eggs."
"Your time starts now."
Well, she tampered with the eggs. - I'll allow it.
Well done!
I'll allow it!
So, again...
Tammy and Mona had 10 eggs each.
5 points to each of them.
5 points. Phil had nine.
Phil: 4 points.
Marie-Lyne: eight eggs.
Three.
Kevin: six eggs.
2 points.
Well... That's good! That's good!
Let's look at the scores.
There's a tie between:
Mona and Phil!
Oh!
I'm proud of you.
You're... you'll always be my favourite.
Let's move on to the third task of the evening.
Definitely! Uh...
After the eggs,
we're going to keep the culinary theme,
going with rice.
Ha, ha, ha! Okay!
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay! Ah!
Okay, "TM". Hello.
Ahem!
"Count the number of grains in this bag of rice."
Oh, come on!
I didn't do that one. - I didn't do that one.
Oh no! - You were on your own, again!
No! Impossible! Impossible!
I can't believe it.
And the time!
Hang on...
Sometimes there's stuff stuck onto or hidden, here.
You know; in case there's a clue, here.
Nope. Nothing to help me.
That's so mean!
There was confusion on set.
You're saying, "What? I didn't do that task."
But there was a scale, Marie-Lyne.
But I've been wondering for a long time
how many rice grains are in a bag.
It's intriguing.
Since you love counting so much, I assigned this task to you.
You villainous... - So we'll take a break,
to watch Marie-Lyne count.
We'll be right back!
Okay.
I'd have to...
I used to be freaking good at maths.
Here's 10 grams.
How many grams in a kilo?
'Kilo' is Greek. It means 1,000.
1,000.
How long can this task go on for?
So, 700 grams.
No. What did I say?
10 grams, 700 grains of rice.
So, that would be 14,000 grains of rice.
14,000 grains of rice?
There would be 14,000 grains of rice in the bag.
There would be 14,000 grains of rice in this bag.
Can I take the bag and count them for real?
Yes!
Okay. Are there 14,000? I think it's more than that.
Dammit! I'm so annoyed with myself!
Welcome back to, Taskmaster.
Well, thanks, Marie-Lyne.
I had been wondering about that for so long.
Were there actually 14,000?
Well, I don't know. How would I know?
What?! Nobody counted them afterwards?
You're the only person who did that.
Who would want to count that?
Me, baby. Me.
And you get zero points for that.
One rice point!
One rice point! One rice point! - 14,000.
My goodness. - One rice point!
Okay, okay, okay! Okay, guys.
Everyone, the protest...
How annoying.
One rice point for Marie-Lyne!
Thank you!
Well done! Well done!
One rice point!
Let's move on to the next task.
A task that'll go by very quickly, or...
ve...ry...slow...ly.
At my feet. Just like men.
Okay! So.
Okay.
"Do something that will look spectacular"
"when sped up or slowed down."
"You have one hour."
"Your time starts now."
Can you come here a second? - Yes, of course.
Thanks. - Of course.
I don't understand what's written, here.
"Do something that will look spectacular"
"when sped up or slowed down."
I could take my make-up off,
and them completely reapply it.
Ha, ha, ha! But in one hour,
I'm going to look like a pile of shit
covered in glitter, though.
I'm kind of attracted to heights.
There's a roof, there.
How could I fall from it safely?
I could make an obstacle course for my dog.
An obstacle course for your dog?
He's not very agile, either. It could be funny.
They had to create a moment.
One hour of prep. - Yes.
One hour?
That's quite long.
"One hour?"
I know, you only took five minutes.
Fuck! I think I only took four.
And then we slowed it down. - An attempt that we either
sped up or slowed down.
The most impressive one will win. - Exactly!
Who are we gonna start with?
Hard to say if this'll be good or bad...
That's a clue right there, but...
Let's start with Phil.
Ah, shit!
It was so cold that day.
Pyrotechnics!
Wow!
The crowd loved it.
I went with...
the four most searched keywords on Google:
"Explosion";
The fire.
"Water drop"; ['eclaboussure' = 'splash']
"Cascade"; ['stunt']
and "Fat guy getting hurt".
Oh, that's good!
Let's have a look at Kevin's attempt, now.
Woo!
It took me longer to fill up my paddling pool.
It was quick, but it was good.
You're like, a sports commentator. [he actually is]
Yes. - You're not sporty.
No.
When we see it in slow motion, right?
It's a watermelon...
that's four feet from you,
and you almost missed it!
Look!
You hit it maybe two inches in.
Bro, it's not about what could have happened.
It's what actually happened.
And that's worth 5 points, baby. Let's go! Let's go!
The melon point! - The melon point!
We'll have a think about that during the break.
When we return, we'll have a look at
the girls' sped up or slowed down attempts.
She slapped you for real?
She slapped me for real.
We did 43 takes.
Welcome back to Taskmaster.
We're in the middle of a creative task, Antoine.
Yes! They had to create a
moment that looked spectacular when slowed down or sped up.
We've seen Kevin and Phil's attempts.
Are you ready for Marie-Lyne's?
Yes! - Well, let's have a look.
That was so cute.
Aww! - I was holding him so tightly.
That was like me when I was in the air.
The cuteness level is very high.
But that was so difficult for him.
Poor little guy. It was, like, 35°C,
he was dying of heat.
Afterwards, Antoine, we didn't know what to do to help him.
Yes, I remember it well.
I almost lost him that day, making him run.
He'll be happy to hear that
'Always' have called, [menstrual hygiene product company]
and they want to hire you as a spokesperson.
Let's see Mona's attempt, now.
Oh!
Pretty good, eh?
Wow!
Some nice work from the girdled stuntwoman.
Wasn't it?
"The Girdled Stuntwoman"! I love that!
Mona was also in that clip.
It's just a bit of support.
It's not for show; it's for my back.
Yes, and you're magnificent.
Thank you.
That's very funny, Antoine.
Okay, good. Great effort.
I appreciate the creativity.
Shall we move on?
There's one last person.
Yes, and not least.
Tammy!
Aaaaaah!
Yay! Ha, ha, ha! Yay!
I'd like to thank KOTV Productions
for letting me do things I can't do at home.
I slapped you for real.
Oh, I thought you were talking about the mug.
You break those all the time.
Very, very, "Kill Bill".
Very good, very good.
A good slap.
Really, you're... Did it hurt?
She slapped you for real?
She slapped me for real.
We did 43 takes.
At some point there were no cameras, no nothing.
I wanted it to be perfect.
But it looked great, in the end. I'm happy with it.
You have to score them, now.
Honestly, I thought they were all great, gang.
We really tried!
Really! Great work.
Everyone worked very hard,
aside from Kevin.
So, I... - What?
I'll give...
Well, 5 points for Phil.
The audience really liked it.
I think Mona and Tammy deserve 4 points.
4 points!
Yay!
And, uh... Marie-Lyne and Kevin: 3 points.
3 points each!
And Phil is in the lead!
Oh!
There's just one task remaining.
It'll be performed here in the flesh when we come back.
Oh, come on!
That's awkward. We're all watching you.
Yeah, eh?
Welcome back to Taskmaster.
It's the final task of the evening, Antoine.
Yes, and Kevin is going to read the instructions.
Up, up... Oh!
Take your time.
Our apologies to the show that airs after this one.
There will be a slight delay.
"Walk straight ahead."
"You will hit this drum"
"in exactly 9.58 seconds." - That's not what it says.
He made a mistake already. - "There are 2 bonus points"
"for the most spectacular walk."
So, the rest of you will be blindfolded.
One participant will come up.
They won't be blindfolded, of course.
It's so you can't see what the others do.
Ah! Okay!
I'll start the time after my whistle.
When you think 9.58 seconds have elapsed,
you'll hit the drum.
I'll stop the time and check.
The person who is the closest will win.
The person with the silliest walk...
Ah! Look at him. - Here's an example. - Look at him go!
...will get 2 bonus points.
The Taskmaster will judge them.
I'm going to ask you to cover your eyes.
Phil... - Ah, shit.
Except for you. You'll start it off.
There's no advantage or disadvantage to being first up.
Well, I haven't had time to think up a silly walk, yet.
Oh, come on. It'll be instantaneous!
Are you ready?
The time will start when I whistle.
Oh! But this is...
That's quite silly.
Is he counting in his head?
Perfect!
You can watch the others, now.
Let's go, bro! - We're starting.
Oh...
Oh, he's counting! Oh, he's countin-
Mona! Are you ready?
I'm going to go against my typecasting.
Ah, yes...
She's doing Casper. - Oh, that was short!
Start when I whistle.
That's awkward. We're all watching you.
Yeah, eh?
Well, let's start with...
Before seeing their results,
let's start by giving out the more qualitative points,
so to speak. Uh...
I'm going to give them to the contestant
that looked the least like
they were counting while walking: Tammy.
Ah!
She was a free spirit.
So it's not that my walk was the silliest,
but that I looked the least like I was counting.
No, you all looked very silly.
But you played it off better.
Okay, well, I'm quite happy with that.
On to the times, now.
For the times, they had to be the closest to 9.58 seconds.
Mona did it in 6.12 seconds,
a difference of 3.46 seconds.
No, don't clap for that.
Yes! It's not the length, it's what you do with it.
Marie-Lyne: 8.05 seconds.
Ooh!
Oh!
A difference of 1.08 seconds.
I'm not too proud of that.
We're getting closer.
Tammy: 8.59 seconds.
Oh!
A difference of less than 1 second; 0.99 seconds.
Kevin: 8.79 seconds.
A little closer. - Damn.
So, a difference of 0.79 seconds.
I smashed it.
And, as you may have guessed, there's Phil remaining.
He did his walk in 10.07 seconds.
A difference of 0.49 seconds.
He was the closest!
What?
Yes! You were allowed to go over!
You could go over!
Let's hand out the points... - We'll hand out the points...
...in order of their times... - Four, three... I'm calculating.
Oh! We have a winner.
Phil! It's your first time winning. - Phil!
Yes!
Bravo, Phil!
My big boy!
You're going to bring the G-Spot back home!
I'd like a bit of oil, please.
Yes! - Masketi!
Masketi! Masketi! Masketi!
A bit of oil.
Masketi! Masketi!
Just a little. Just a little.
It does feel good.
We'll treat ourselves a little,
and plan to meet up again next week, everyone!
