The segment begins with Tidy interviewing carnival goers, who explain how important the carnival is to them.
The crowd then begin to flick pink paint at Tidy's face and shirt. "We absolutely deserve this," says Tidy, succumbing to his fate. Shortly after, someone places a blue paint-covered hand on Tidy's face, completing the colourful look. "It's not even 9 o'clock yet," says Tidy.
Despite getting covered in paint before 9 a.m., Tidy carried on reporting while covered in paint for the rest of the day.
