'Don't' Episode 2: Fire-slingshots to upside-down baseball catches, here are the best moments from the show
If you thought that the previous episode of 'Don't', was the epitome of wacky, the latest one would prove you wrong. In this episode called 'Don't Move In With Your Parents', a family of four were put through the paces and had to win the strangest of challenges, in order to add to their balance in the bank. This week, Daniel and Nicole Kaufman from Los Angeles, California and their two adult children/roommates, Tucker and Cody had to prove their upside-down-baseball-catching, tug-of-war-rope-pulling, slingshot-fire-extinguishing skills in challenges 'Don’t Play Ball in the House,' 'Don’t Play with Matches,' 'Don’t Budge,' 'Don’t Lose Your Grip' and 'Don’t Stop'." The show is hosted by Adam Scott, with Ryan Reynolds giving his usual snarky voiceovers.
Here are some of the best moments from the show.
'Don't Stop'
Adam Scott asks the family a question with a multiple choice. In front of the family, there are four STOP signs, which have option A, B, C written in front of them. One of them gives an answer and then they have to run through the corresponding signpost called 'STOP'. If they are able to run through it, then their answer is correct. If not, they're wrong. Nicole got the right answer and managed to run right through the signboard while Cody wasn't so lucky.
'Don't Play Ball In The House'
Tucker had to hang upside-down, while his family threw balls at him. If he caught them, they would earn money. If the balls destroyed anything in the house, they would lose money. This was one of the easier tasks as Tucker actually aced this challenge. The family did quite well in this first one.
'Don't Play With Matches'
Daniel had to slingshot 'fireballs' (don't worry, they weren't) at little kids dressed as matchsticks, and they had to dodge him. After a very sketchy start, he seemed to have gotten the hang of it.
'Don't Budge'
This was one of the easiest challenges on the show. Cody had to stand behind a glass frame, while her family threw things at her. If she moved, they would lose money. If she didn't, they would earn more. It was a little too easy and Ryan Reynolds couldn't help commenting, 'Maybe we should have said don't blink."
The show airs on ABC, Thursdays at 9 pm.
