·19 min·1 clip

Danielle takes 503 guesses to realize the passwords are the alphabet.

The episode begins with Eric introducing Taskmaster Australia's fifth episode, featuring host Tom Gleason, assistant Tom Cashman, and contestants Danielle Walker, Jimmy Reese, Julia Morris, Luke McGregor, and Nina Oyama. The prize task requires the most pretentious item, with Jimmy winning by bringing vinyl records without a record player. The first main task involves protecting popcorn from Tom, where Danielle is disqualified for attacking him, and Luke and Julia score high by making the popcorn disgusting. Next, contestants must guess passwords for 26 flowers, with Danielle taking 503 guesses after failing to realize it's the alphabet, while Luke gets zero points for dropping roses. A team task requires moving a giraffe to a bathtub without touching grass, where Danielle and Julia's 'dream team' succeeds in 8 minutes, and Nina and Luke's 'improv troop' struggles for 22 minutes. The live task has teams spell 'Taskmaster' with shadows, resulting in poor performances from both. Julia wins the episode with 17 points, followed by Jimmy, Nina, Danielle, and Luke. Eric concludes by praising the password task as his favorite ever, laughing throughout.
