- May 17, 2010
On a Bender is the third episode of the fifth season of the popular reality TV show, Canada's Worst Handyman. In this thrilling and hilarious installment, our five hapless handymen and handywomen face a series of mind-boggling challenges that will test not only their technical skills but also their mental strength and ability to work under pressure.
The episode kicks off with a bang as the contestants are given their first task: fixing a broken bannister on a steep staircase. Sounds simple enough, right? Think again! As always, there's a catch. They have to complete the task blindfolded. Yes, you read that correctly. Blindfolded! With only their sense of touch to guide them, the handymen must navigate the treacherous staircase and mend the bannister without being able to see a thing. Hilarity ensues as they fumble and falter, leading to a series of comical mishaps that will leave viewers doubled over with laughter.
Once the blindfold challenge is over, it's time for the contestants to face their next nightmare: plumbing problems. Each contestant is assigned a different plumbing task, ranging from fixing a leaky faucet to unclogging a stubborn toilet. While these may seem like routine household tasks to some, our hapless handymen find themselves completely out of their depth. With flooded bathrooms, burst pipes, and the occasional accidental spray to the face, the plumbing challenge turns into a chaotic waterworks display.
However, the true test of their handiness skills comes in the form of the next task: electrical wiring. Tasked with installing a light fixture, the contestants are faced with an intricate puzzle of wires, switches, and circuits. As expected, sparks fly, figuratively and sometimes literally, as they struggle to decipher the complicated wiring diagrams. With the constant fear of electrocution looming over them, tensions rise and tempers flare. Our handymen and handywomen find themselves in a tangled mess of wires and frustration, leading to some truly unforgettable moments.
As the episode progresses, the pressure continues to mount. The next challenge requires the contestants to build a bookshelf from scratch with only a set of instructions and a pile of mislabeled parts. As they grapple with missing screws, ill-fitting pieces, and perplexing assembly instructions, the frustration reaches new heights. Tempers flare, patience wears thin, and the competition heats up as our handymen and handywomen push themselves to the limit in a race against the clock.
Finally, it's time for the grand finale of the episode: the outdoor construction challenge. In this ultimate test of their skills, the contestants must build a wooden deck from the ground up. Armed with power tools and materials, they face the daunting task of measuring, cutting, and securing the deck planks to create a sturdy and safe structure. With time running out and the finish line in sight, each contestant gives it their all, battling against fatigue, clumsiness, and the constant threat of injury.
As the episode draws to a close, the exhausted contestants present their completed projects to the judges, who assess their handiwork and critique their performance. The nail-biting anticipation builds as the judges reveal who has been deemed the Worst Handyman of the week and who will earn a much-needed reprieve.
On a Bender is a rollercoaster ride of laughter, frustration, and nail-biting suspense. It showcases the highs and lows of the contestants' struggles, their determination, and their relentless pursuit to shed the title of Canada's Worst Handyman.
