I hope I beat the robot.
From the still it looks like Khoo is enjoying victory.
I wonder how long it took Erika to find the can.

    Erika brings up an amazing idea. An expensive plan but if the goal is frustration well

    Get a safe, put can in safe, put safe in khoo's office.

    The beauty of this plan is threefold:

    If you get one of those big safes, Robert can't break into it without spending a shitton of effort
    She can set the combination to the maximum amount of numbers and then just pick at random so he can't use logic to figure it out
    The can isn't hidden. Robert knows exactly where it is, he just can't do anything about it. And if they actually get him a wall-safe he can't just move the safe itself into her office and cheat his way out of defeat

    And if you wanted to be a real asshole
    don't even put the can in the safe. Let him break it open and find nothing inside

    Exactly. It the absolute most frustrating thing you can do. Hide the can where he knows where it is, but cannot get it or move it.

    I knew watching the first part that they should just not hide maybe three or four of the cans.

    Mr. Khoo's a smart fella, he knows how many are in a gross.

    Know what I would do? I would indirectly start a chain of events that leads to a new staff member throwing a house party every week and then when it’s my opponent’s turn, sneak out of the party and hide it.

    Leave a fake can with a notice explaining the boundaries of the game have increased but are still limited to personal space under the opponent’s control.

    If they can't get to the outside of the windows easily, tape it to the outside of the window.

    that is not a boundary you would want to extend to Robert

    And then he did, and I took great amusement in it.

    I actually really like the "Not Hide the Football" game.

    If it were me I'd take everything out of the other person's officer and leave it completely bare with the football just lying in the direct centre.

    After the amusement, it occurred to me that a drywall saw would have been much less expensive than a dremel. He may have already owned the dremel, I guess.

    Well this has to be one of my favorite episodes yet. Going to the trouble of actually carving a little house for it in the wall was unexpected. I didn't even notice the little mark on the wall which is where the approach for the pry tool must have been. It also might have been an intentional small clue left so that it could actually be found without having to be told, if one is so observant.

    She almost literally guessed the exact method of concealment while looking for it.

    I imagine it dawned on her that he actually DID do this, since it wouldn't really do just to tuck it away somewhere after what she pulled, and eventually found the hiding spot just from looking in places where a hole in the wall could be concealed.

    All in favour of Khoo getting his own spin-off series? 100% Khoo, 100% of the time?

    Alternatively, I would also accept BigBrother-esque live cams on the PA workplace. Think about it, that's all I'm sayin'

    I like the format they have at the moment, but given this is 10 minutes out of 40+ hours in their work week, there's gotta be more material. Hell, they could easily crank out 30 minute episodes, even if most of it is filler, and I think we'd all watch it.
