Task 3: Trust in Others

The seven remaining cadets have a carpet covered with mousetraps placed in front of them. They are asked to remove their shoes & socks and put on a blindfold. They are then asked to edge their way toward the carpet, take three steps forward across it, and trust in Liz that it won't be painful. However, unbeknownst to them, the production crew remove the mousetrap covered carpet, revealing a plain carpet underneath it.

Jamie, Alex, Louise & Billy all walk across to the other side of the carpet. Liz reveals this to the cadets, after which Kyra also walks across. Chrissie only places one foot on the carpet and Adam doesn't attempt to cross at all.

The judges are impressed with all the cadets, and decide not to dismiss anyone this week.
