The initiation ceremony consist of several tasks:
1. Leap of Faith (the blindfolded candidate has to jump from a height of about a foot)
2. Crossing the Desert (the candidate has to walk between to lines of Stonecutters, everyone paddles his rear end with a bat)
3. The Unblinking Eye (the candidate has to walk between to lines of Stonecutters, everyone paddles his rear end with a bat)
4. The Wreck of Hesperus (the candidate has to walk between to lines of Stonecutters, everyone paddles his rear end with a bat)
5. The Paddling of the Swollen Ass ..., with Paddles (speaks for itself).
After completing these tasks, the candidate has to give an obligation: ... and by the Sacred Parchment, I swear that if I reveal the secrets of the Stonecutters, may my stomach become bloated and my hair be plucked of all but three hairs.
That was a great episode.
