Summary[]
The task was presented in the bar door with a knife stabbed in it and the bar decorated for Halloween. The contestants had to either give Paul a trick or a treat when he arrived. However, another trick or treater arrived in costume 2 minutes before Paul, who was dressed as Peter Pan, to trick the contestants.
Performance[]
Chris Parker: Chris decided to treat Paul to an impression of Paul Williams so dressed up as Paul, ripping the clothes as he tried to fit into them and he put on fake eyes. He gave both the first trick or treater and Paul milk and cookies. He received 4 points.
Josh Thomson: Josh set a booby trap so that when the door was opened, an airhorn went off. Whilst he pretended to have been attacked for the first trick or treater, the booby trap went off for both trick or treaters. He received 5 points.
Justine Smith: Justine held up a large towel and dropped it, running off and screaming so it looked like she had disappeared, which she did for both the first trick or treater and Paul. She also gave Paul a bowl of lollies and a T-Rex toy. She received 1 point.
Kura Forrester: Kura planned to prank Paul by getting him to "do CPR" on a dummy, accidentally breaking eggs, but gave the trick to the first trick or treater. She ended up giving Paul a bowl of lollies when he arrived. She received 2 points.
Paul Ego: Paul made Paul a daiquiri from eggs, mustard, coffee and candy corn, which he gave to the first trick or treater. When Paul arrived, he gave him a cutlery set. He received 3 points.
