Try Not to Die!, Thursday, June 3, 2021

"Right, so we're not talking about yesterday and I decided that all of you would probably prefer to be as far away from Fandom as possible today, so...Singapore," Anakin said, pointing to the map. "We're going to Singapore."

"I spent half my day shirtless," Ben complained. "I'm so sunburned."

"I had a Padawan braid," Anakin said, "and was briefly my own daughter. It's just best not to dwell. Everyone into the portal."

In this week's roadblock, you have to walk across a tightrope suspended 600 feet (180 m) above the ground from one tower of the Marina Bay Sands to a second, pick up the next clue, and return to the original tower.

Or you can just...live in Singapore forever. It's also an option.

No one really wants to know what Nell was thinking as she did this. No one. All anyone needs to know is that she got the clue and it took her slightly less than forever to do so.

In China Cups, you travel to the Hong San See temple, where you have to undergo a cupping therapy session. After a painful back massage, skin scraping, and then fire cupping, all of which are said to increase blood flow and remove toxins, you will receive the next clue from the masseuses. In Chili Crabs, teams traveled to the Red House seafood restaurant, where they had to prepare Singapore's popular dish of chili crab. You had to crack open crab claws smothered in hot chili sauce and collect 2 pounds (0.91 kg) of crabmeat to receive their next clue from a man dressed as a crab. (It was Ben. Ben was dressed as a crab. He hated his grandfather so much.)

Please. Crack open crab claws? Nell was done with this task so fast that the fact that it took her several years to finish the last task was made up with barely any effort at all on her part.

Two pounds? She could have done this in her sleep and still managed easily.

And Ben. Dressed as a crab. But before you get there, you have to stop at a coconut vendor along the way and drink a fresh coconut full of coconut water, then bring the empty coconut with you!

It was a challenge to drop from second to seventh when all she had to do was drink coconut water and then bring the shell along with her, but Nell managed it! Which is to say, she bartered for a number of fresh coconuts to bring back with her and then had to find someone to barter with for a sack of some sort to bring them back in, which is why she was so late. Hi, Anakin and Crab Ben!

Now I want chili crab.
