Summary[]
The task was presented on a mirror. The contestants had to draw the animal wearing a hat looking at them, which was hidden behind the mirror. They had to look at the mirror throughout the task and could not leave the room. There was a switch behind them above a sign saying "Every time you press this switch, you lose one minute." Pressing the switch would briefly illuminate the duck.
