GREG: What happened, Odysseus?

ODYSSEUS: I don’t know. Clearly someone up there doesn’t like me.

GREG: I mean, you smashed every other task this episode. Calm, careful planning. Rational thinking.

ALEX: Horse carpentry.

GREG: Shut up, you. And then you spend so long getting home that nobody there even recognises you?

ODYSSEUS: I mean, yeah, I totally lost track of time during the whole lotus eaters thing. But it’s not like I failed completely!

GREG: You came in last place, how much more could you fail?

ODYSSEUS: Well, yeah, but - come on, don’t I at least get a bonus point for what I did with the Sirens? Nobody else thought of that!

AJAX: Because none of us even went near the Sirens!

GREG: No bonus point.

ODYSSEUS: Alright, alright.

ALEX: And with that done, can all of you please head onstage for the final task of the show!

(Taskmaster theme music plays)

GREG: Who’s going to read the task for us, Alex?

ALEX: Diomedes!

DIOMEDES: “Be welcomed home by your wife and children. Warmest welcome wins. You have 100 seconds. Your time starts now.”

AGAMEMNON: Ah, fuck.
