* Unfortunately, while the TV executives were pitching the best original high-concept multi-platform TV show, Alex zoned out because he lost interest and was busy arranging a tapas meal for him and Greg, as well as the car to get them there. Ultimately Alex decided not to show the attempts because the ideas "weren't right for them at the time" and no points were awarded for their efforts.
