Tasks

Prize: Best pair of things.

Put something on your face that looks like a moustache from afar, but it's clear what it really is up close.

Transfer as much rice as possible into the bottle in the living room. You may only use the contents of the shopping basket, and the bottle must not leave the living room.

Team: Convey the object in the chest to your teammates. They may not see the object - in the first minute, you may only make facial expressions. In the second minute, you may make noises. In the third minute, you may shout adjectives. From then on, you may whisper verbs.

Run the furthest distance while making a continuous noise with your mouth.

Live: Say a species of bird, eat a grape, and say the name of a remaining contestant within 5 seconds. The game will continue with the named contestant.
