Default Should You Be Institutionalised?

Once again my apologies, I'm bored, should be golfing:curse:

Anyway here we go:
During a visit to a mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director what the criteria is that defines if a patient should be institutionalised.

"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub. Then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask the patient to empty the bathtub."

Okay, here's your test:
1. Would you use the spoon?
2. Would you use the teacup?
3. Would you use the bucket?

What would you use?
