Not only does she not win the task (because Danielle did even better than her), but she comes in next to last in the overall season rankings with the majority of her task performances being defined by her inability to read or follow the task instructions properly.

** Danielle's claim in the "age or de-age yourself" task that she's 300 years old is accepted by Tom Gleeson as a call-back to her life montage in the first episode showing her dying at 410 years of age.
** Nina's $50 bet with Tom Cashman that she'd win the whole season is referred to multiple times throughout the season as it becomes abundantly clear that she has no chance of winning the bet, and she brings in the $50 in the final episode for Tom.
** During the "sink the bowling ball" task, Danielle makes a call-back to Luke's assertion in an earlier task that he didn't want to jump in the lake because bacteria might get into his butthole by saying that she fell into the lake off-screen while retrieving the bowling ball and "my asshole is in heaps of trouble now".
** Luke says during the sixth episode's live task that the medal he drew on his monster for the "make your monster more prestigious" part is one for sex, which Tom Gleeson recognizes as a call-back to Luke's montage in the first episode claiming that he won the Sex Grand Final.

** In "Foot Juice", one of the tasks is to fill a glass of orange juice. Next to the glass is a bucket of oranges, but the contestants can only touch the oranges with the items on the bench that range from a weight to a pair of Crocs. Julia ignores the oranges and the items on the bench and simply gets a carton of orange juice from the kitchen to pour into the glass, since nothing in the task said the contestants couldn't use or touch items that were not on the bench. [[spoiler:She wins the task.]]
** In "Cricketmaster", given the task to "fly this thong[[note]]that is, [[SeparatedByACommonLanguage a flip-flop]][[/note]] the furthest distance", Julia Morris opts to stick the thong in the fly of her pants and run with it, 'flying' it that way. [[spoiler:The Taskmaster accepts this interpretation, and Julia runs away with the task, running over 200 metres before the thong falls out, whereas the next furthest distance was only about 40 metres.]]
** In "BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM", the contestants are given the task to sink a bowling ball with the twist that the bowling ball floats in water. Most of the contestants submerge the ball underneath water by making it heavier or putting it underneath something heavy, but Luke instead just puts the ball into a kitchen sink.
