Summary Lauri Bencharski was named the second graduate of the season after the most recent panel deliberation, leaving six nominees at the Centre. The first challenge the six face is to drive a pick-up truck towing a 10 meter long trailer, which all are legally allowed to do under a basic driver's license. The challenge through the predetermined course also includes a backing up section. Peter provides some instruction on the basic of towing a trailer before each nominee attempts the challenge. Some succeed through the skills learned in the lesson, some succeed despite their own insecurities, while others quit the challenge altogether. The second challenge is to do a three point turn on a raised platform. Most are able to get on and off the platform, but require more than three turns. The third challenge is the annual water tank challenge: nominees are required to drive an obstacle course smoothly, or else get drenched by water sitting in a 200 liter tank mounted above the car. Most lose more water than they keep in the tank, but Andrew, who is supposed to demonstrate that it can be done, is embarrassed by his own performance. The fourth and last challenge is to perform a maneuver called the reverse flick within an enclosed course. The nominees are given a lesson in performing the maneuver by Philippe. Doing the maneuver in the lesson with Philippe and doing it on the challenge course end up being two totally separate things. Before the panel deliberation, each participant is allowed to plead their case for graduation to the experts. Only one of the six feels ready to graduate. Will the panel agree?
