"Sure."
They went to the third spot. There was an old man sitting under the tree in his yard.
Once again, Vania said, "Hello, sir. We're here for the ingredients."
"What?" The man's ears weren't as good as they used to be.
She repeated louder, "We're here for the ingredients."
"Oh, you're here." That was the only thing he heard.
He can barely hear what I said. The guy must be really old since his ears probably don't work well now. A resigned Vania turned around. "This is a prank, isn't it?"
'Obviously.'
'I'm worried for the team. Vania and Hanson would kill them later. Sending prayers their way.'
'This is probably another failure.'
'They should give up.'
Even in this situation, the couple refused to give up. They still tried to communicate with the old man. "Can I have a pen?" Vania asked the cameraman.
"Sure." He gave her a pen. This was the help he could give them and he would gladly help out. I need this job, after all.
She took it and wrote down what she needed on the card. Then, she showed it to the old man. "I've written what I need on this. Can you help me out?"
Right after the words came out of her, she shut up immediately. Oh, right. He can't hear me well.
And then, as if he had been struck by the realization, the old man gasped.
Vania's eyes lit up. This is gonna work. Her heart was leaping with joy. This is a smart move.
'Oh, she looks happy.'
'I don't think this is it.'
'I just know the team has more pranks lying in wait.'
'They failed twice. If they fail the third time, they're gonna go nuts.'
'They're gonna get it this time.'
However, the team didn't give them that chance. They kept going on with the prank. Just when everyone thought the old man would come back with the ingredients they needed, he said, "I can't read."
What? So, he was just acting? I did that for nothing? Vania wanted to rip the card, stop filming and breach the contract. Dammit.
She grumbled in resignation, "Maybe I need to draw it out. That might work." She still wanted to struggle and see if it would work, even if the chances were slim.
Though, this time, the old man heard her. He answered right away, "I can't read, hear, or understand anything you draw."
Yeah, that's a lie. That's obviously a lie.
The viewers were bellowing with laughter.
'Man, this is a gift that keeps on giving. I love this show.'
'This is gonna become one of the funniest clips of all time.'
'Keep this up.'
The scene made all the viewers happy people, but that wasn't the case for the couple. A third failure would cost them the mission. Hanson didn't even bother to get mad because he would whoop them after this show was done.
