Bäst i test (2017–2022): Season 5, Episode 5 - Fredrik Lindström gästar - full transcript
It's 20:00 on Friday, and what could be more apt
than to watch a handful of adult humans--
--solve tricky, but slightly silly, tasks
together against the clock?
And the panel that's left all dignity at home
this season consists of:
The vicious valkyrie from Västerås:
Johanna Nordström!
The glad go-getter from Göteborg:
Morgan Alling!
The nerdy neurotic from Norrköping:
Arantxa Àlvarez!
And the unconventional
universe-ponderer from Umeå: Olof Wretling!
And our week's guest is none other than
the eminent eccentric from Eskilstuna:
Here's Fredrik Lindström!
[comedian, presenter, and linguist]
And tonight you will, among
other things, see this:
You should know, David, I'd
never do this voluntarily.
It's just--it's nothing, it's just that I'm alone in the kitchen...
Castrates using the teeth -
fast and effective.
Ugh, no!
Yeah, you never beat a horse. Sorry.
A hearty welcome back.
- Welcome, panel. How're things? Doing alright?
- Super well.
- Great.
And then there's this week's guest,
Fredrik Lindström.
A word that I associate with you a lot is
'dignity'. Have you been able to keep that on this show, do you think?
Well, we'll have to see.
And speaking of trying to keep your
dignity, or even having one at all: Here's David Sundin.
Yes. Thank you, thank you. Thank you, thank you.
As always, an honor to get to be here...
Mhm, and let's not drag on with that.
Are our competitors ready?
- Yes indeed.
- Yeah.
- Then I think we should get going with our first test
- We shall...
And here it is.
- Yo! What up?
- Hullo.
Aha, it's...
What...?
"The participant who..." ...limestone
or whatever it is, cast in cement...
- "You'll be disqualified if you..."
- "Your time starts now."
- The participant who breaks that is disqualified.
- What?
Right. So, in this test it was only possible to read
half the text of the letter. The rest of it was cast in a cement block.
So, the goal was to first find out what the goal
of the test was, and then perform that.
Mhm. So, a little bit tricky.
That does make you curious about what
methods this clever gang utilized.
Mhm. So, a little bit tricky.
That does make you curious about what
methods this clever gang utilized.
I'm guessing the sledgehammer emerged
from the shed pretty quick. Who're we starting with?
Well, let's tear off our entire
recurring panel at once:
Here's Arantxa, Johanna, Olof and Morgan.
"Your time starts now."
That's where it died.
But god, you're so--you're so careful!
"The participant who first reads this entire
letter loudly and clearly wins."
"You'll be disqualified if you express skept--
criticism against the test, Babben or David during the course of the test."
- "Your time starts now."
- Wham, bam, thank you, ma'am!
Yeah, what I said is that on Tuesday, we have to...
Yes, brawn over brains is what applied here,
since all four solved this task, and...
- Which times did we observe?
- Well, we can see that Arantxa did this with 1:44.
Morgan 1:20, Johanna 54 seconds--
--but Olof merely 39 seconds!
So, the time to beat is Olof's 39 seconds.
Doesn't sound totally impossible.
And now we know what one's NOT allowed to do
now that we're watching Fredrik.
- Mhm, welcome into the Bäst i Test-game--
- Eh--
- Sorry?
- Sorry, it's not like--
I'm just checking a bit before you broadcast, here.
It's not like any of these--
--like, complained about--criticized in any way,
and you've just edited that out?
- No, they're experienced. They just do what it says.
- There occurred no...
- We're like robots.
- It would never occur to me to criticize a test.
- I smiled the entire time.
- So we'll carry with us their happy moods, and say...
Welcome into the Bäst i Test-game,
Fredrik Lindström!
Uh huh. Okay. You don't get to find out
more of the task here, or what?
Well...it's written there.
- So it's not idiomatic Swedish, this.
- No.
No complete clauses. I'll have to go to the Radio Commission
and make a complaint--"you're out of shape here", I'll say.
There! Look at that. Uh huh...
Right, that wasn't enough. Fussy.
Lot of hassle, here.
And there's nails and crap in it, too,
what sort of people have...
And there's a chunk, too. Damn. Heck.
Now, that's just...
It's like it's a dang coconut.
Now, then! "The participant who first reads this entire
letter loudly and clearly wins."
"You'll be disqualified if you express criticism against
the test, Babben or David during the course of the test."
Yeah, but I haven't done that, right?
No, not--not that critically.
Just a bit about the idiomatic Swedish, there.
Well, Fredrik, I do think there were
some negative tones still.
I think I made a crass judgement of it all,
but I'll leave that to you.
You are, of course, disqualified
for lousy attitude.
I hope this could be a warning for you for
the tests to come, here. So, how are the scores divided?
Right, that gives us 5 points for
Olof, 4 for Johanna, 3 for Morgan--
--2 to Arantxa, and we'll stop there.
But the night's just begun, my god, David.
Next test.
Okay. Well, this thing about introducing tests
is a hobby-horse of mine, you might say.
There's supposed to be a...ah, there!
Found it.
"Build and name the most
magnificient hobby-horse."
- "You have twenty minutes."
- "Your time starts now." Hobby horse!
- Twenty minutes? That's not urgent.
- But it does have to be nice, Olof.
What would one do without tape, I wonder?
Not much. Nothing.
No. There'd be a lot of sewing and tying,
in that case.
It should be nice, too.
It's not like it has to be a horse...
Oh god, you were--!
- It'll be more like a magnificient reindeer.
- But they do usually call reindeer "the poor man's horse".
I'm considering a bit that it could
be called Folke Filbyter. [historical figure]
Since it means "the foal biter". So he's
castrated a lot of hobby-horses, Folke--
--so he might as well get one
named after him.
I'm working a bit with a sea horse, almost.
And then I want...a stick, of course.
Ah! You just jump out.
It's a magnificient hobby-horse,
and his name is Brunte.
Is your magnificient hobby-horse done?
Yeah. It's called Snake Dragonfly Horse
Baby Shark 2.0 Fireflames.
- Good work.
- Thanks!
- Uh, this is Charlotte Perrelli. [singer, host]
- Charlotte Perelli, the hobby-horse.
There she is.
- And what's her name?
- Jenny, the terror of the sea.
Do you think that, as a horse, you'd think--
--that it was humiliating to get named
after one of the most prominent horse castraters?
No! No. A foal biter who castrates using the
teeth - fast and effective--
--and makes sure that not
too many can breed.
So the horses that remain get less competition
and, therefore, are deeply grateful towards Folke.
Right, my god. Olof, you went for it here.
What did that horse weigh?
Ah, it was terrible--there was so much time,
so you had the time to get a lot of ideas together.
- And Johanna, yours looked a bit top-heavy.
- No...
Well, I'd taped it and stuff.
I'd also like to say to Charlotte:
- Charlotte, if you're watching, it's a tribute.
- Well, everyone, these were very nice hobby-horses. All of them.
But that wasn't what this competition revolved around.
- No, no...
- No. No. No, no, no...
So! Here comes letter number two.
Ay, ay, ay! Dios mìo!
What're you wearing!?
- I'm smiling. You don't know what I'm smiling at.
- No?
That you think you've found
a helmet in my size.
- Yeah, I can see that already...
- Forget about that.
- Yes, Jenny...
- It's something you'd almost want to...
"Compete with your magnificient hobby-horse
on the obstacle course."
"Ten seconds are added for each knocked-down
obstacle or refusal."
"Guess every participant's placement in the contest.
You get one point per correct answer."
"Your time starts when David fires the starter pistol."
- What order do you think these five people will wind up in?
- I think Fredrik'll be last.
- Arantxa second.
- Olof'll probably do well. So he can be...number one.
Morgan'll have a hard time, since he's built
something that's going to break, so he'll--he'll be last, actually.
- I think...Arantxa.
- Arantxa?
- Then we'll have Fff...Johanna.
- Fjohanna.
After that I think it's Morgan.
Fredrik Lindström'll be last.
- And that's not...someone has to be last, too.
- Yeah. No shame in that.
- Excellent.
- Let the games begin! This'll be fun!
Yes, this was what the test revolved around.
With five hobby-horses as magnificient as this
it'd be a shame not to go for a proper ride.
So, the goal was to compete on the obstacle course,
and as befits Bäst i Test-hobby-horse-show jumping...
...you'd get ten seconds extra
for each knockdown or refusal.
- And this is very exciting, now. Who's hot to trot first?
- First out of the starting gates are Morgan and Johanna.
- Johanna, are you ready?
- Yeah.
Morgan? Your time starts--
--in three, two, one!
Ready, set...
And he's off. He knocks down the first.
He manages the second.
- And that one.
- Did I knock it...? No.
And now it's time for the high obstacle!
- He knocks it over. He knocks it over.
- No worries. I've got it.
- Oh!
- Excellent, excellent!
Here he comes towards the finish line!
- There. Yes...magnificient.
- Thanks.
Let's see. You knocked down one, two, three
obstacles, I'd say.
- Yeah. And a refusal, I'd say as well.
- It looked like that, and it was.
- Good work.
- Thanks a lot.
One knockdown, no refusal, so ten seconds
extra. 31 seconds...41 seconds.
- Is he dead? Brunte?
- Brunte's dead.
Johanna, you did have a very long mane on your horse.
It was a bit troublesome when you were jumping.
Yeah, but exactly like Charlotte.
Long, nice, lovely hair...
- ...that you wrap around your own neck.
- Yeah, I'd love to.
- Who're we jumping over to now, David?
- Now it's time for Olof and Fredrik to ready up.
And it may be good to be aware here that Olof,
he's bet on himself to be number one--
--in this contest, and Fredrik's bet on himself
to be third, that is, he hopes to be somewhere in the middle.
Now's when the regret starts.
Then, Fredrik, you start in
three, two, one, go!
And he's off, Olof and Jenny.
- Nice, Olof!
- But god!
- ...zero. And we're off.
- Giddyup! Giddyup, horsey!
So you think that the ones who wind up last
will have been even slower about it?
Yeah. Out of tactical reasons, I think they will,
and to retain some dignity. Giddyup!
And he takes the corner wonderfully, when
they come up to...
- Damn!
- It's fine, it's fine. Don't think about it, Olof, think positive!
This one's damn hard. I'm gonna have to scissor
the legs here, actually.
There he comes with the
old high jump...
Yeah, that's the one that applied
up until the 60s.
And here's the finish line!
- And here there'll be a standing jump.
- And he's reached the goal, there.
- No!
- It was...the foot there, that...
Yeah, you never beat a horse. Sorry.
- Good choice of horse.
- I won't take the credit. It's the horse's.
- Yeah, yeah. That's the way it is. It's rough.
- Good work.
Fredrik, that leg-scissoring was suspiciously like a refusal,
I have to say. There was a severe slowdown beforehand.
Yeah, but Babben, honestly. Think a little.
We're talking about an equestrian sport--
--where you even accept leg-scissoring at all.
We don't interfere in how the horses jump over
in that way, it's more the slowdown before.
But I also want to be very clear about--I was
trying, for tactical reasons, not to rush too much.
Since I'd placed myself in third place, I thought
"I can't win the whole shebang", since then I don't get anything.
- And we're approaching the resolution now, right?
- Oh yes. This is exciting, now.
This is the moment of truth. We've got Arantxa left,
and she's bet on herself to be last--
--so here's Arantxa and her horse, Snake
Dragonfly Horse Baby Shark 2.0 Fireflames.
Ready, set, go!
So, what we're dealing with here is
a horse on a shark-snake.
Shit, I...no!
Here, right?
What the hell...?
Here. Here we are.
- Am I done?
- Yeah.
Right, Arantxa. Some horsing around, there.
Yeah, I did have a few things going against me.
Vision's good when you're jumping, so...
- You didn't see anything.
- No, nothing. It was super hard.
I only had these tiny...horse-holes, or
horse nostrils to see...
- Think the phrase is 'horse-holes'.
- Ride this out now, David.
Right. Winning this race wasn't the point here,
either--guessing the placement of the others was.
We've received your betting slips.
We'll take a look at Morgan's chart.
So we can see here that you got one right.
You had Johanna in second place, and she was second.
One right for you, there.
Then we have Johanna. You have...
...no rights, but all wrongs.
Then we'll look at Olof's bets.
You've got one right. You put yourself as
number one and then went on all cylinders--
--and make sure to be first, which was, after all,
the only thing you could affect on your own.
Then we have Fredrik. You bet on yourself
to be somewhere in the middle, you said--
--and mark my words: You positioned yourself
exactly right, coming third, and therefore get one right.
So everyone had one right except for Johanna, who had zero.
And we'll go ahead and look at Arantxa.
- How'd she do?
- What!?
Arantxa, you got five right!
Incredible!
Arantxa: "I got five right in the
Bäst i Test-hobby-horse-showjumping."
You knew that you'd wind up last, that Olof would win,
that Fredrik would be somewhere in the middle, etcetera. Incredible.
- A large round of applause for Arantxa!
- I'm psychic! Wow! Thanks!
An incredibly circuitous way to get that few points,
but we'll trot on to the next test, I think.
Yes we will, and if this wasn't your cup of tea,
the next test just might be.
- Arantxa.
- David.
- Aha, there you are.
- And there you are.
So, this is my worst thing. Spinning.
You should know, David, I'd
never do this voluntarily.
- No?
- No.
But now we've put ourselves
in a situation which is a bit hard to...
- Yeah. We've signed contracts for SVT.
- That's right.
Let's see. Balloons, a pen, a letter...
"Blow up balloon buddies and make
them stay in the teacup."
"Most balloon buddies in the
teacup after the ride wins."
"You must introduce each balloon
buddy with a new name and profession."
"Each balloon buddy must have heads
that are bigger than David's."
- So, your head or your balloon head?
- My head.
"Your time begins when the ride starts
and ends the second that the teacups stop."
I think we should get started, then.
So, the goal was to blow up balloons,
name the balloons, and assign them a profession--
--so as to make them balloon buddies, and
then make the balloon buddies stay in the teacup--
--which will be spinning. Most balloon
buddies in the cup at the end of the ride wins.
We'll start by watching Fredrik, Arantxa and Morgan.
- I do get motion sick easily.
- What's your safeword?
- Uh..."watermelon".
- "I'm gonna throw up."
My safeword is "cut".
And we're off. And it doesn't feel
that bad like this, huh.
No, I think this feels good.
Ah, god damn!
What the hell? Oh damn, now this is fast!
Oh, god damn--
- There, yeah. There you have it.
- Oh, David!
No!
Oh, god damn! Aah!
I've got these big--banana bunch fingers, so...
Here we've got Sven! He works with selling
ice cream to kids!
Hello, Sven. Pleasure to meet you.
- This is Adam! He works as an arborist!
- Arborist-Adam!
This is Valter. He's been working as a youth worker,
but he's thinking of going back to school a bit now.
- He wants to enter the media business.
- Lovely. Let's have the next one.
- ♪ Rolling, rolling, rolling...
- But, what the hell...
David, it's so fast!
And it's spinning so much!
Ah, hell--I'm really sorry,
but I have to say "cut".
- Who've we got there, then?
- This is...Bengt.
- He works as a ball boy.
- Hello, Bengt!
- No! Sven disappeared!
- That puts you down at zero, Arantxa.
No! No! I dropped Bengt!
No, this can't be...!
Here's Cesar! He's a chancellor!
- Chancellor?
- Yeah, in Germany!
This is Lars, he works as a--as a bus driver!
- Do you have the time to introduce that before this stops?
- Yeah, I do!
This is Fredrika, and she works as a fiolinist.
- Fiolinist.
- Violinist, then. Or, fiddl--ah, god damn...
- What happened to Lars?
- Eh...Lars...?
Let's see what we reached, then.
I reached one balloon buddy,
who I named Valter.
- There we have him.
- I think he's a bit bigger than you, yeah.
- One, two.
- And two that bailed, but that's not enough to...
No. They've got to remain in the cup,
so sum total: Two.
- They don't exactly have faces...
- No, but the pen disappeared.
- But this is an appearance, too.
- Yeah, it is.
- Excellent. Good work.
- No, it really wasn't.
- But this is an appearance, too.
- Yeah, it is.
- Excellent. Good work.
- No, it really wasn't.
Now I'll do as Magnus Uggla [singer] used to say
and 'launch my lunch'.
Aah...
- So, how was the motion sickness here?
- Like, the teacups are the worst thing I know.
They spin too much. I can barely swing
on a regular swing, so this was too much for me.
And Fredrik, you had long shpiels at first about
your balloon buddies, then you quieted down, then cut.
Yeah, but I tried to...as long as you can participate,
you try to participate.
It's better to make one buddy, and then go throw up.
Spinny things are very much not for me.
I get terribly nauseous from them.
- But we've got more to see, don't we?
- We certainly do.
It's time to take Johanna and Olof for a spin.
- Are you ready?
- No.
- Then let's go.
- Yeah.
Dammit! Shit! Wait...
- Joel Andersson, mechanic!
- Joel Andersson, mechanic. Good day to you.
- Annika, she works as a librarian!
- Hello, Annika. Pleased to meet you.
No! But wait, David--
- So, balloon number two's on its way.
- Lena Endre, Bris! [children's rights organization]
- Prince?
- No, Bris!
It's spinning a lot, now!
- Tomas Bolme, voice actor!
- Tomas Bolme, voice actor, nice to meet you.
This is Sofia. She's a lash, uh, lash...stylist.
- Lash stylist. Pleased to meet you.
- We can say barber!
Salvador Dalí, artist!
- Ragnar, banker.
- Pleased to meet you, Ragnar.
Imagine if they burst now.
- And up next?
- Lasse Berghagen, song-and-dance man!
Song-and-dance man. How nice to meet you...
I'm doing too many details. This is
Katrin, she's a tattoo artist.
- And who's this?
- Hasse Aro, detective!
- Hasse Aro, detective. At your service...
- Ah jeez, now I'm so dizzy I can't even tell where I am...
Michael Jordan, baske--
NO!
- Hasse flew off!
- We've lost Hasse Aro, but we welcome Michael Jordan.
Here we've got Kristoffer. He works as a baker.
- Lisa Miskovsky, pop-and-rock artist.
- And we've stopped, there.
Y'know, this was actually pretty nice.
- You think it was nice?
- Yeah, how strange.
- Feeling good?
- Yeah, super.
- Lisa Miskovsky, pop-and-rock artist.
- We don't need to...
- Hasse Aro, detective.
- No, we've lost Hasse Aro.
One, two, three.
One two three four, five six seven eight.
In that case, I'm just wondering if you think
this one is bigger than my head?
Now, that one's Tomas Bolme. Voice actor.
He doesn't have that big a head, so
it would've been unrealistic.
- Six balloon buddies. Good work.
- I'll stay here. I'll just...
See you later, then.
- Ah, Johanna. How'd you feel after the ride?
- Really bad. Like, really, really bad. I felt really nauseous.
- You didn't have any tendency to get motion sick, or...?
- As you could see there, I was bracing myself.
It might not be very fashionable to take
that amount of space while riding--
--but it meant that I pressed myself in,
so I never experienced any nausea.
- Yeah, that was impressive.
- And how many balloon buddies did they accumulate?
Well, it's like this--Arantxa two balloon buddies,
Johanna a whole six balloon buddies.
Morgan two, Olof eight balloon buddies,
and Fredrik one balloon buddy.
- The sum total was one.
- I just wanted to check.
And tonight, everyone, we're competing for
no less than this. We've had a replica made--
--of this carnival ride, that you can keep
on your shelf as a memory and think:
"That's right, I sat in one of those
and span around." Cool, right?
Sooner or later all shows reach a middle,
which is also the case with this one--
--and that's when we usually dial it down a bit here on Bäst i Test
and get to know the guest of the week a bit better--
--if that's even possible when the one doing
the interviewing is called David Sundin.
Thank you, thank you. Thank you, thank you.
Lovely words--I absorb them, you know that.
Nam-nam-nam! Thank you, Babben.
- Fredrik Lindström, welcome.
- Thank you.
- You are...tall, taller than most.
- Yes.
- And you're also linguistically interested, I have here in my papers.
- Yeah, a bit.
And there I've probably covered most of it,
I think, or is there something you'd like to add--
--about your person except for these two things?
- Eh, maybe that I'm astigmatic, in that case.
- Uh huh? What does that entail?
- Vision impairment, David.
- I don't know yet, but I think you can use it in personal ads.
But in addition to that, Fredrik, aren't you also
attached to partying to music?
Yeah, now that you mention it.
When I party, I do every so often
put some music on.
That's your thing. The third--tall, linguistically
interested and attached to music.
And how interesting that you mention that,
because it's time to play--
--"Attach to music".
♪ Attach to music
♪ (Attach, attach, attach)
♪ Attach to music, attach to music
We're going to play "Attach to music".
Fredrik, you've got a letter under your cushion
there that you can take out--
--and read to your co-competitors, Babben, me--
--those at home, and the band, of course.
"Attach as many post-it notes on your body as possible.
Most notes when the party's over wins."
"You may only..." Now I'm going to say this is
'fästa' (attach) with an 'Ä', so you understand.
"You may only attach when the music's playing."
Still 'fästa' with an Ä.
"If you attach when the music's not playing you'll
be disqualified. The test starts on David's signal."
In that case, I'd just like to hold
a small eulogy and say this:
I've...you talked a little bit about my dignity.
I'd just like to say a little farewell...thanks, goodbye.
It was nice to, for the first 57 years, have some
dignity, but now we say goodbye.
Thanks a lot.
We're all standing at the station, saying
farewell to Fredrik Lindström's dignity.
I'm going to explain a bit further how the test
works. You'll be wearing blindfolds.
You'll be sitting down, and you'll have access
to these post-it notes.
If two touch each other, I'll remove them
and not count them.
- Both of them?
- Both of them.
But god, you've got good pants for this. Leather pants.
I'm sitting here with these damn corduroy pants.
They're "Attach to music"-repellent pants.
The test starts on my signal. You're welcome to
put on the blindfolds and sit down--
-and I'll blow the whistle when we get going.
So, Arantxa's pulled it down, Johanna's pulling down the blindfold--
When I blow the whistle, we'll get attached to music.
What the hell...!?
- There we are, then!
- It was that fast?
We'll get Olof, then. These two are touching
each other, so we'll get rid of them.
Then I count...one, two, three, four, five, six--
--seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve notes
attached, to music.
- Arantxa. Everything good with you otherwise?
- Yeah...
One, two, three, not touching, four--
--five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
Ten notes, attached to music.
Then there's Fredrik. You can take off the glasses.
- These are touching each other.
- I can agree about that.
This is where you thought:
"Did I put any here? No, I probably haven't." I'll remove that.
- These aren't touching each other. One, two...
- But that one was attached.
Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine notes
attached, to music.
- That was good, Fredrik!
- Morgan. One, two, three, four, five.
Six, seven, eight, nine.
Johanna--one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine notes attached, to music.
And that's how we play "Attach to music".
Right. We've counted up all the attached notes--
--and the points are as follows, there'll
be 5 points for Olof--
--4 for Arantxa, and 3 points each for the rest.
Excellent work, everyone.
At the top of the rankings now, it's
like this:
We've got in a third place Johanna with 11 points,
Arantxa with 14 points, and Olof with 16 points!
Exciting!
- Should we go for another test?
- Let's. Here it comes, and it's time for drama.
- Hello.
- Hi! Here you are, and a door.
"Make the most dramatic entrance."
"Before you make your dramatic entrance,
you should, in a dramatic way, say:"
"This is my most dramatic entrance."
"This...is my most dramatic entrance."
- "You have 60 minutes."
- "Your time starts now."
- Wow, incr--so, 60 minutes?
- A long time.
Okay. Guess I'll go and ponder.
Right. So, the goal was to make as
dramatic an entrance as possible--
--through the door of standard size
attached to the letter.
There was a whole 60 minutes to prepare,
so one could imagine this'll be something really grand.
So, who of our five participants will
be knocking first?
I think we'll let Johanna make
an explosive entrance.
This is my most dramatic entrance.
- Oh, damn!
- Cool.
- Yeah, that was dramatic. Good work.
- Thanks, thanks.
Shall we...?
Right, Johanna. Fire and some violence.
What do you say when you see this?
I had such visions.
You don't get it! I was...
I was nervous and standing like this--
"this, I mean, this is gonna be..."
Fire, fire, fire! I was gonna kick the door down
and come in and save the world.
But it is what it is. Who's the next drama queen
to make their entrance?
Now it's time for a historic
presentation, directed by Arantxa.
This is my most dramatic entrance.
- If it isn't Anckarström!
- Gustav III!
How could you do this to me?!
Good work.
Right, Arantxa. This was an incredibly
loose interpretation of the murder of Gustav III.
And I might've had too many blood pills there, maybe.
They're really bitter, don't taste too good.
Didn't get as much bloodflow as I was hoping,
but it was dramatic still, right?
- And you still got the flavor in there.
- Yeah.
A historical setting with
some meaning behind it.
This just gets better and better, I think.
Who steps onto stage next?
Now it's Morgan's turn to break down any
preconceptions about dramatic entrances.
This is my most dramatic entrance.
- David? I'm here now.
- Okay.
David!
- You still there?!
- Yeah.
- The horses are saddled.
- Right. Let's go, then.
- The horses are saddled!
- Yup, yup.
- Is that dramatic, do you think?
- Very dramatic.
- That's what my vision was like!
- Yeah, so why didn't you do that?
But you--you kicked so well!
- Yeah, I'm used to kicking doors in.
- Well, it looked good and dramatic. What next, David?
Now it's time for dead seriousness with Olof.
Sensitive viewers beware.
- Right! I can take your order now.
How nice. Hey, it says "arm" here...
If I was you--don't take the arm,
look a little bit more down here.
We've got, for example, chopped mussles.
They've been plated and chopped.
No, you know what? I'll try the arm.
- It's just--it's nothing, it's just that I'm alone in the kitchen...
- Are you okay?
- It's fine, it's just--
- One arm, please.
How nice. And what a nice place.
This is my most dramatic entrance.
Did you have to order the arm when I'm
alone in the kitchen!?
Thanks, thanks...
Good work.
- I'm alone in the kitchen...
- Yeah, you said.
- Right, Olof. You gave up your own arm here.
- Yeah, but it was like--"kebab arm", I thought. Dramatic.
The dramatics of being at a restaurant, alone in
the kitchen, and he has the gall to order arm.
- Then there's just one door-opening left.
- So there is, and it's time for--
--a winding, grandiose trip through an
artistic life: I give you Fredrik Lindström.
"You have 60 minutes.
Your time starts now."
I understand quite well that you wonder
which one is my most dramatic entrance--
--is it maybe when I, as Desdemona's
doomed-to-die husband, am dragged in, in chains--
--by a nude Börje Ahlstedt, [actor]
only to be humiliated by my wife on stage and catch her--
--cheating on me with 400 Spartans? No! No!
That's not my most dramatic entrance.
Is it maybe when I'm winched down in "King Lear" in a burning basket
of flames from the Royal Dramatic Theatre's ceiling--
--and catch 20 mentally deranged nuns who've been cheating on me,
and are trying to get back at me by impaling me on anchovy forks?
No. That's not my most dramatic entrance,
even if you might think so. I understand quite well how you'd think so.
Is it maybe my entrance
in "The Cherry Orchard", you say--
--where I'm sent, greased up with bear fat from St. Petersburg,
through a gas pipeline, and onto the Royal Dramatic Theatre's main stage--
--arm-in-arm with a turned-on Putin? No.
No. No. No, no, no, no...
This is my most dramatic entrance.
Good work.
Right, Fredrik. Were you really prepared for this
door falling off? You looked a bit surprised yourself.
I was thinking a bit like, as Tommy Berggren [actor] usually says,
"Is it possible that I'm this good? Is it possible that I'm this magnificient?"
"I'm crossing every line and every boundary right now."
- And then I may look surprised, even if it, so to speak...
- Is planned.
Then, Babben, it's time to assign some points
to these dramatic entrances.
That's right. And this was high-level
dramatics across the board, I think--
--so I've actually divided them into two categories,
which are 'good' and 'better'.
Among the good are
Fredrik, Olof and Arantxa.
You get 3 points each for these
dramatic entrances.
Then we've got Johanna and Morgan,
who not only went for drama but also action.
- You get 4 points each.
- So good and better, quite simply.
- And then we'll move on with the next test.
- Yes indeed. And now, we're heading out for a small stroll.
Okay...
- Hi, hi!
- Hi.
You going slalom skiing?
"Take a walk with David
consisting of exactly 589 steps."
"During the walk you must maintain David's tempo
and make pleasant conversation."
"The one who says 'thanks for the walk'
closest to 589 steps taken wins."
"The test starts when David takes his first step." Uh huh.
- 589? I'm the one who has to count?
- Yeah.
- And make conversation? Ugh.
- Yeah.
Right. So, a lovely walk in the sun.
The snag was that you had to count
to exactly 589 steps--
--while keeping an even pace with me, and, well, I do
enjoy chit-chatting about this and that while out for a walk.
Yes. We'll start with Johanna, Morgan,
and the flâneur of flâneurs, Fredrik Lindström.
Alright, Morgan. Let's head off.
Lovely.
- Everything alright with you, otherwise?
- Really good. So dang good.
- Lovely, lovely, lovely...
- This walk is actually starting to--hi, Ulf!
- Ulf Adelsohn. [politician]
- Yeah, he biked past here.
Here we are, back on the road.
- Can you name any Swedish types of tree?
- Yeah, I certainly can if you want me to.
- Yeah?
- Oh, you think I should--well, I know birch, alder...
- Are there a lot of larch [lärk] trees in Lärkstaden?
- No, almost none. I've lived there.
- It's from something else?
- Yeah. The district names, Tofslärkan and such.
- You're keeping my pace?
- I am, but I think it's so fun to just...
- I love that.
- They were a bit moist, still.
♪ A three-cornered man came in...
And continue.
- ♪ There was...leather...
- ♪ He had clogs and a birchwood jacket...
- It's important to keep the old ticker going.
- Really is.
- And it goes a little something like this...
♫ You're nobody
♫ 'til somebody loves you
I'm totally lost, David.
580...now, we're stopping soon. Then I'd like you to stop--
there for your last step, so to speak.
I think that there's where I say
thanks for this walk.
- Thanks for the walk.
- Ah, it was nothing.
- You've got no idea?
- No idea, but what a walk!
- Thanks for the walk.
- Ah, it was nothing.
- You've got no idea?
- No idea, but what a walk!
We could do this again. And I can ask ol' Ulfy
to come and bike past, to perk us up--
--in case we run out of topics to talk about.
- Thanks for the walk.
- You too. I should be thanking you.
- No...
- No, but it...thanks. Thank you.
- Aspen.
- Good work.
Right, there was some perambulating there.
Morgan, are you good at this thing of
keeping two things in your head at the same time?
Yeah, it, no--I was trying to work out
the first 100 meters, I thought.
"That oak there and that oak there's probably 100.", I thought.
I had a bit of tactics like that, but
I think that after 40-50 meters I was totally lost.
That's when I thought: "I'll chance it."
That's not too bad.
And I think you also thought it was
a bit messy to keep count.
Yeah, I was trying to...
see the numbers in front of me.
Like, I was constantly thinking about the numbers,
but I was thinking of them in pictures.
Wait, whoa, what? What did you say? You
thought of the numbers as pictures?
Like, I was thinking while walking...
Seeing the numbers there, one, two,
at the same time as I was listening to...
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was smart.
- So there was a plan, at least.
- And how'd these three do?
- Interesting, interesting...
- Morgan's walk lasted for 425 steps.
- That wasn't bad.
- 164 steps from the goal.
- No, but that's not too shabby.
Fredrik's walk was 476 steps, so
113 steps away. Just a bit better.
- Morgan's still good, as mentioned, but now, everyone...
- Best at being the worst.
- Are you sitting down?
- Yeah.
- You are, yes. You're sitting down.
- Yeah.
Johanna Nordström.
The goal was 589 steps.
Johanna walked 580 steps.
- What!?
- Just nine steps away, because she saw them as pictures!
I saw the numbers as pictures.
Very impressive, Johanna.
And it's exciting...
I think we'll take a look at Arantxa's walk.
Arantxa Àlvarez.
Where's the name from?
Uh...it's from...Spain.
From Spain. A Spanish name,
how nice, how nice.
- You're a bit of an arts-and-crafts type.
- You could say that.
- What do you usually make?
- I like...sewing. Sewing kimonos.
- But your dialect...
Your dialect isn't from Spain.
It's from...
- Whoops.
- From...?
- Norrköping.
- Norrköping? Norrköping, right.
Oh! Ah--
- Lovely to be out in nature.
- Yeah.
- It's getting a bit darker around the evenings.
- Yeah...
- Do you like the dark?
- ...No.
I prefer it when it's light.
- Do you cook a lot at home?
- Yeah.
- What do you make, then?
- I like...trying out...new recipes.
- New recipes? What type of thing?
- Eh...oh, no...
- Eh...
- Oh? So it's not too tasty?
No.
David? I'd like to thank you so much
for the walk. Thanks for the walk.
- Nice.
- Fun to find out a bit more about you, too.
- Good work.
- Yeah, you too.
Right, Arantxa. It felt like you kept count a pretty long time,
but then what happened?
No, like, I was trying to maintain the conversation
like it was regular one, not at all trying to count in my head--
- --but it was choppier than I thought.
- When you see it.
I thought it was smooth, you and me
found each other there in our deep conversation...
But that was choppier than I thought. I
actually have no idea how that could've gone.
- You were the worst conversation partner of the gang.
- But I did answer your questions.
- In due time.
- Yeah, in due time.
Arantxa's walk was close as well, it should be said.
She walked 533 steps, so 56 steps away,
and is currently in second place.
But isn't there a smarter method to solve this,
that would let one beat Johanna's score?
Yes, there just might've been.
We're taking a look at the man who's made a name for himself--
--with his smart methods: Olof.
- How about a little walk?
- Isn't that nice!
- Where're you from, Olof?
- Umeå.
- You've got a lot of nature there, right?
- We have it about 87 degrees colder a year than you.
- Do you get a lot of nature, then?
- 99 percent no.
- What sort of music is there in the Wretling household?
- "147 degrees" by Ebba Grön.
- Otherwise a lot of theatre for you?
- 200 per cent!
201, 205...
- He had a lot of speed, that guy.
- Yeah, he was doing about 270 kilometers an hour.
- You think so? How old are you this year?
- 300.
300 years. 301, 302, 303, 304...
You know, I wouldn't have guessed, Olof.
How of you are there in Klungan? [Olof's theatre troupe]
- 330 people.
- That you can even remember their names...
- What's your favorite animal, Olof?
- One of those 530-point moose.
- One of those that you hang on the walls.
- You know what? Never seen one.
- Never seen one? You can come over to my place.
- Never seen one.
So we were sitting at the bank, and I say like--
"What interest rate would you like?" And I hear myself say:
- "565 percent!"
- "Deal!"
David? Thanks for the walk.
Now I'll step--I'll double-check the count on back.
- What did the double-check turn up?
- I don't know.
But this might've been a winning concept.
You did kept count pretty okay.
- What did this result in?
- Well, Olof had a really good method.
And it would've been really sweet
if it had worked.
There always has to be a "but" in my life.
I recognize this situation. "But..."
If the method had worked...or, I'll say it like this--
The method worked, but you didn't remember
that it was 589 steps.
- Instead, you thought it was 689 steps.
- Yeah, think so.
And you walked 685 steps of those 689 steps.
If you'd remembered it correctly you would've won,
but as-is you're 104 steps above.
You were the only one who went too far,
and you only get 3 points.
Otherwise, the points are as follows: Johanna 5 points, applause,
Arantxa 4 points, Fredrik 2 points, and Morgan 1 point.
I don't want to be bitter here, but
I did perceive it as--
--that if you didn't make conversation in a
consummate way, you would be disq...
Of course I want to be bitter. I really want
to be bitter. I want to be a sore loser.
Because I put all my energy
into leading as proper a conversation as possible.
We discussed at least some tens of,
tree types in Djurgården, their foliage--
--and different properties and such things.
For this thing with the amount of steps, I was thinking:
"Stay somewhere within the closest 100."
- Did you have someone particular in mind?
- Yes, Arantxa should've been disqualified.
Arantxa was the worst conversation partner,
and you were the best, Fredrik, you should have that.
Yes, it--that's--I'm happy being last if I get a bit of
recognition for being the best conversation partner.
The points have been distributed. We can debate
about whether it's fair or not...no, no, let's not debate.
But in that case, we've got a split first place.
Olof and Arantxa both have 25 points each...
Then we've got Johanna at 22 points,
and so on in descending order...
This means that anything can happen
and everything can change, because it's time for the finale.
Finale time. Arantxa, you can read
these instructions.
"Score a goal in your basketball hoop
with your egg. Most goals wins."
"You have 60 seconds.
The test starts on David's signal."
Right. So, in 60 seconds, you should score
as many goals as possible in this basketball hoop.
- It's a raw egg you're getting.
- Do you get disqualified when it breaks?
You'll be allotted the points that you've
worked your way up to, so if you've scored 100--
--and then the egg breaks,
that will count.
You can't move or overturn the basket or so on,
that remains where it is.
Is everyone ready?
Then it's 60 seconds from...
- Morgan!
- Morgan can go sit down.
No!
- Can...no!
- What're you doing?
- But I was going to--I mean, I dro--it was against my finger--
- Nothing to vote on here, right?
- But it hasn't even started!
- Then it's 60 seconds. Three, two...
- No!
- Arantxa's out. Johanna's out.
- Fredrik's out.
- I didn't even--did you get through?
- No!
Olof...it's amazing to see a
master at work.
Round of applause! Olof Wretling!
So let's sum this up, everyone.
Such amazing displays.
So, everyone's eggcited and finished.
And how did this actually wind up?
So, it's like this--Olof was the only one
who actually got more than one throw...
--and that's 5 points. Then there's Fredrik,
who still managed to get it in once.
- It did go through the ring.
- If you say so.
Don't bicker, because that's
still a four--4 points there.
But then the rest didn't get the egg
through the hoop a single time.
Morgan didn't even make it
to the starting line.
Sum total: If we put together all these points
we have, in fifth place, Fredrik.
Total: 14 points. Then we've got Morgan,
21 points, Johanna 23 points--
--Arantxa, with her one-pointer, steps up to 26 points--
--but with Olof's five he
climbs up to 30 points--
--and is the winner of tonight's show,
and receives this replica of the carousel.
It's a little miniature! Kind of cool--take a look.
And what have we learned tonight? Well, that
hobby-horses often knock things down with their hind legs--
--and to hold onto your buddies in the carousel,
or they'll disappear. See you next week! Come on, let's congratulate the winner, here...
Timestamps: Iyuno Media Group
Translation: DangBream
than to watch a handful of adult humans--
--solve tricky, but slightly silly, tasks
together against the clock?
And the panel that's left all dignity at home
this season consists of:
The vicious valkyrie from Västerås:
Johanna Nordström!
The glad go-getter from Göteborg:
Morgan Alling!
The nerdy neurotic from Norrköping:
Arantxa Àlvarez!
And the unconventional
universe-ponderer from Umeå: Olof Wretling!
And our week's guest is none other than
the eminent eccentric from Eskilstuna:
Here's Fredrik Lindström!
[comedian, presenter, and linguist]
And tonight you will, among
other things, see this:
You should know, David, I'd
never do this voluntarily.
It's just--it's nothing, it's just that I'm alone in the kitchen...
Castrates using the teeth -
fast and effective.
Ugh, no!
Yeah, you never beat a horse. Sorry.
A hearty welcome back.
- Welcome, panel. How're things? Doing alright?
- Super well.
- Great.
And then there's this week's guest,
Fredrik Lindström.
A word that I associate with you a lot is
'dignity'. Have you been able to keep that on this show, do you think?
Well, we'll have to see.
And speaking of trying to keep your
dignity, or even having one at all: Here's David Sundin.
Yes. Thank you, thank you. Thank you, thank you.
As always, an honor to get to be here...
Mhm, and let's not drag on with that.
Are our competitors ready?
- Yes indeed.
- Yeah.
- Then I think we should get going with our first test
- We shall...
And here it is.
- Yo! What up?
- Hullo.
Aha, it's...
What...?
"The participant who..." ...limestone
or whatever it is, cast in cement...
- "You'll be disqualified if you..."
- "Your time starts now."
- The participant who breaks that is disqualified.
- What?
Right. So, in this test it was only possible to read
half the text of the letter. The rest of it was cast in a cement block.
So, the goal was to first find out what the goal
of the test was, and then perform that.
Mhm. So, a little bit tricky.
That does make you curious about what
methods this clever gang utilized.
Mhm. So, a little bit tricky.
That does make you curious about what
methods this clever gang utilized.
I'm guessing the sledgehammer emerged
from the shed pretty quick. Who're we starting with?
Well, let's tear off our entire
recurring panel at once:
Here's Arantxa, Johanna, Olof and Morgan.
"Your time starts now."
That's where it died.
But god, you're so--you're so careful!
"The participant who first reads this entire
letter loudly and clearly wins."
"You'll be disqualified if you express skept--
criticism against the test, Babben or David during the course of the test."
- "Your time starts now."
- Wham, bam, thank you, ma'am!
Yeah, what I said is that on Tuesday, we have to...
Yes, brawn over brains is what applied here,
since all four solved this task, and...
- Which times did we observe?
- Well, we can see that Arantxa did this with 1:44.
Morgan 1:20, Johanna 54 seconds--
--but Olof merely 39 seconds!
So, the time to beat is Olof's 39 seconds.
Doesn't sound totally impossible.
And now we know what one's NOT allowed to do
now that we're watching Fredrik.
- Mhm, welcome into the Bäst i Test-game--
- Eh--
- Sorry?
- Sorry, it's not like--
I'm just checking a bit before you broadcast, here.
It's not like any of these--
--like, complained about--criticized in any way,
and you've just edited that out?
- No, they're experienced. They just do what it says.
- There occurred no...
- We're like robots.
- It would never occur to me to criticize a test.
- I smiled the entire time.
- So we'll carry with us their happy moods, and say...
Welcome into the Bäst i Test-game,
Fredrik Lindström!
Uh huh. Okay. You don't get to find out
more of the task here, or what?
Well...it's written there.
- So it's not idiomatic Swedish, this.
- No.
No complete clauses. I'll have to go to the Radio Commission
and make a complaint--"you're out of shape here", I'll say.
There! Look at that. Uh huh...
Right, that wasn't enough. Fussy.
Lot of hassle, here.
And there's nails and crap in it, too,
what sort of people have...
And there's a chunk, too. Damn. Heck.
Now, that's just...
It's like it's a dang coconut.
Now, then! "The participant who first reads this entire
letter loudly and clearly wins."
"You'll be disqualified if you express criticism against
the test, Babben or David during the course of the test."
Yeah, but I haven't done that, right?
No, not--not that critically.
Just a bit about the idiomatic Swedish, there.
Well, Fredrik, I do think there were
some negative tones still.
I think I made a crass judgement of it all,
but I'll leave that to you.
You are, of course, disqualified
for lousy attitude.
I hope this could be a warning for you for
the tests to come, here. So, how are the scores divided?
Right, that gives us 5 points for
Olof, 4 for Johanna, 3 for Morgan--
--2 to Arantxa, and we'll stop there.
But the night's just begun, my god, David.
Next test.
Okay. Well, this thing about introducing tests
is a hobby-horse of mine, you might say.
There's supposed to be a...ah, there!
Found it.
"Build and name the most
magnificient hobby-horse."
- "You have twenty minutes."
- "Your time starts now." Hobby horse!
- Twenty minutes? That's not urgent.
- But it does have to be nice, Olof.
What would one do without tape, I wonder?
Not much. Nothing.
No. There'd be a lot of sewing and tying,
in that case.
It should be nice, too.
It's not like it has to be a horse...
Oh god, you were--!
- It'll be more like a magnificient reindeer.
- But they do usually call reindeer "the poor man's horse".
I'm considering a bit that it could
be called Folke Filbyter. [historical figure]
Since it means "the foal biter". So he's
castrated a lot of hobby-horses, Folke--
--so he might as well get one
named after him.
I'm working a bit with a sea horse, almost.
And then I want...a stick, of course.
Ah! You just jump out.
It's a magnificient hobby-horse,
and his name is Brunte.
Is your magnificient hobby-horse done?
Yeah. It's called Snake Dragonfly Horse
Baby Shark 2.0 Fireflames.
- Good work.
- Thanks!
- Uh, this is Charlotte Perrelli. [singer, host]
- Charlotte Perelli, the hobby-horse.
There she is.
- And what's her name?
- Jenny, the terror of the sea.
Do you think that, as a horse, you'd think--
--that it was humiliating to get named
after one of the most prominent horse castraters?
No! No. A foal biter who castrates using the
teeth - fast and effective--
--and makes sure that not
too many can breed.
So the horses that remain get less competition
and, therefore, are deeply grateful towards Folke.
Right, my god. Olof, you went for it here.
What did that horse weigh?
Ah, it was terrible--there was so much time,
so you had the time to get a lot of ideas together.
- And Johanna, yours looked a bit top-heavy.
- No...
Well, I'd taped it and stuff.
I'd also like to say to Charlotte:
- Charlotte, if you're watching, it's a tribute.
- Well, everyone, these were very nice hobby-horses. All of them.
But that wasn't what this competition revolved around.
- No, no...
- No. No. No, no, no...
So! Here comes letter number two.
Ay, ay, ay! Dios mìo!
What're you wearing!?
- I'm smiling. You don't know what I'm smiling at.
- No?
That you think you've found
a helmet in my size.
- Yeah, I can see that already...
- Forget about that.
- Yes, Jenny...
- It's something you'd almost want to...
"Compete with your magnificient hobby-horse
on the obstacle course."
"Ten seconds are added for each knocked-down
obstacle or refusal."
"Guess every participant's placement in the contest.
You get one point per correct answer."
"Your time starts when David fires the starter pistol."
- What order do you think these five people will wind up in?
- I think Fredrik'll be last.
- Arantxa second.
- Olof'll probably do well. So he can be...number one.
Morgan'll have a hard time, since he's built
something that's going to break, so he'll--he'll be last, actually.
- I think...Arantxa.
- Arantxa?
- Then we'll have Fff...Johanna.
- Fjohanna.
After that I think it's Morgan.
Fredrik Lindström'll be last.
- And that's not...someone has to be last, too.
- Yeah. No shame in that.
- Excellent.
- Let the games begin! This'll be fun!
Yes, this was what the test revolved around.
With five hobby-horses as magnificient as this
it'd be a shame not to go for a proper ride.
So, the goal was to compete on the obstacle course,
and as befits Bäst i Test-hobby-horse-show jumping...
...you'd get ten seconds extra
for each knockdown or refusal.
- And this is very exciting, now. Who's hot to trot first?
- First out of the starting gates are Morgan and Johanna.
- Johanna, are you ready?
- Yeah.
Morgan? Your time starts--
--in three, two, one!
Ready, set...
And he's off. He knocks down the first.
He manages the second.
- And that one.
- Did I knock it...? No.
And now it's time for the high obstacle!
- He knocks it over. He knocks it over.
- No worries. I've got it.
- Oh!
- Excellent, excellent!
Here he comes towards the finish line!
- There. Yes...magnificient.
- Thanks.
Let's see. You knocked down one, two, three
obstacles, I'd say.
- Yeah. And a refusal, I'd say as well.
- It looked like that, and it was.
- Good work.
- Thanks a lot.
One knockdown, no refusal, so ten seconds
extra. 31 seconds...41 seconds.
- Is he dead? Brunte?
- Brunte's dead.
Johanna, you did have a very long mane on your horse.
It was a bit troublesome when you were jumping.
Yeah, but exactly like Charlotte.
Long, nice, lovely hair...
- ...that you wrap around your own neck.
- Yeah, I'd love to.
- Who're we jumping over to now, David?
- Now it's time for Olof and Fredrik to ready up.
And it may be good to be aware here that Olof,
he's bet on himself to be number one--
--in this contest, and Fredrik's bet on himself
to be third, that is, he hopes to be somewhere in the middle.
Now's when the regret starts.
Then, Fredrik, you start in
three, two, one, go!
And he's off, Olof and Jenny.
- Nice, Olof!
- But god!
- ...zero. And we're off.
- Giddyup! Giddyup, horsey!
So you think that the ones who wind up last
will have been even slower about it?
Yeah. Out of tactical reasons, I think they will,
and to retain some dignity. Giddyup!
And he takes the corner wonderfully, when
they come up to...
- Damn!
- It's fine, it's fine. Don't think about it, Olof, think positive!
This one's damn hard. I'm gonna have to scissor
the legs here, actually.
There he comes with the
old high jump...
Yeah, that's the one that applied
up until the 60s.
And here's the finish line!
- And here there'll be a standing jump.
- And he's reached the goal, there.
- No!
- It was...the foot there, that...
Yeah, you never beat a horse. Sorry.
- Good choice of horse.
- I won't take the credit. It's the horse's.
- Yeah, yeah. That's the way it is. It's rough.
- Good work.
Fredrik, that leg-scissoring was suspiciously like a refusal,
I have to say. There was a severe slowdown beforehand.
Yeah, but Babben, honestly. Think a little.
We're talking about an equestrian sport--
--where you even accept leg-scissoring at all.
We don't interfere in how the horses jump over
in that way, it's more the slowdown before.
But I also want to be very clear about--I was
trying, for tactical reasons, not to rush too much.
Since I'd placed myself in third place, I thought
"I can't win the whole shebang", since then I don't get anything.
- And we're approaching the resolution now, right?
- Oh yes. This is exciting, now.
This is the moment of truth. We've got Arantxa left,
and she's bet on herself to be last--
--so here's Arantxa and her horse, Snake
Dragonfly Horse Baby Shark 2.0 Fireflames.
Ready, set, go!
So, what we're dealing with here is
a horse on a shark-snake.
Shit, I...no!
Here, right?
What the hell...?
Here. Here we are.
- Am I done?
- Yeah.
Right, Arantxa. Some horsing around, there.
Yeah, I did have a few things going against me.
Vision's good when you're jumping, so...
- You didn't see anything.
- No, nothing. It was super hard.
I only had these tiny...horse-holes, or
horse nostrils to see...
- Think the phrase is 'horse-holes'.
- Ride this out now, David.
Right. Winning this race wasn't the point here,
either--guessing the placement of the others was.
We've received your betting slips.
We'll take a look at Morgan's chart.
So we can see here that you got one right.
You had Johanna in second place, and she was second.
One right for you, there.
Then we have Johanna. You have...
...no rights, but all wrongs.
Then we'll look at Olof's bets.
You've got one right. You put yourself as
number one and then went on all cylinders--
--and make sure to be first, which was, after all,
the only thing you could affect on your own.
Then we have Fredrik. You bet on yourself
to be somewhere in the middle, you said--
--and mark my words: You positioned yourself
exactly right, coming third, and therefore get one right.
So everyone had one right except for Johanna, who had zero.
And we'll go ahead and look at Arantxa.
- How'd she do?
- What!?
Arantxa, you got five right!
Incredible!
Arantxa: "I got five right in the
Bäst i Test-hobby-horse-showjumping."
You knew that you'd wind up last, that Olof would win,
that Fredrik would be somewhere in the middle, etcetera. Incredible.
- A large round of applause for Arantxa!
- I'm psychic! Wow! Thanks!
An incredibly circuitous way to get that few points,
but we'll trot on to the next test, I think.
Yes we will, and if this wasn't your cup of tea,
the next test just might be.
- Arantxa.
- David.
- Aha, there you are.
- And there you are.
So, this is my worst thing. Spinning.
You should know, David, I'd
never do this voluntarily.
- No?
- No.
But now we've put ourselves
in a situation which is a bit hard to...
- Yeah. We've signed contracts for SVT.
- That's right.
Let's see. Balloons, a pen, a letter...
"Blow up balloon buddies and make
them stay in the teacup."
"Most balloon buddies in the
teacup after the ride wins."
"You must introduce each balloon
buddy with a new name and profession."
"Each balloon buddy must have heads
that are bigger than David's."
- So, your head or your balloon head?
- My head.
"Your time begins when the ride starts
and ends the second that the teacups stop."
I think we should get started, then.
So, the goal was to blow up balloons,
name the balloons, and assign them a profession--
--so as to make them balloon buddies, and
then make the balloon buddies stay in the teacup--
--which will be spinning. Most balloon
buddies in the cup at the end of the ride wins.
We'll start by watching Fredrik, Arantxa and Morgan.
- I do get motion sick easily.
- What's your safeword?
- Uh..."watermelon".
- "I'm gonna throw up."
My safeword is "cut".
And we're off. And it doesn't feel
that bad like this, huh.
No, I think this feels good.
Ah, god damn!
What the hell? Oh damn, now this is fast!
Oh, god damn--
- There, yeah. There you have it.
- Oh, David!
No!
Oh, god damn! Aah!
I've got these big--banana bunch fingers, so...
Here we've got Sven! He works with selling
ice cream to kids!
Hello, Sven. Pleasure to meet you.
- This is Adam! He works as an arborist!
- Arborist-Adam!
This is Valter. He's been working as a youth worker,
but he's thinking of going back to school a bit now.
- He wants to enter the media business.
- Lovely. Let's have the next one.
- ♪ Rolling, rolling, rolling...
- But, what the hell...
David, it's so fast!
And it's spinning so much!
Ah, hell--I'm really sorry,
but I have to say "cut".
- Who've we got there, then?
- This is...Bengt.
- He works as a ball boy.
- Hello, Bengt!
- No! Sven disappeared!
- That puts you down at zero, Arantxa.
No! No! I dropped Bengt!
No, this can't be...!
Here's Cesar! He's a chancellor!
- Chancellor?
- Yeah, in Germany!
This is Lars, he works as a--as a bus driver!
- Do you have the time to introduce that before this stops?
- Yeah, I do!
This is Fredrika, and she works as a fiolinist.
- Fiolinist.
- Violinist, then. Or, fiddl--ah, god damn...
- What happened to Lars?
- Eh...Lars...?
Let's see what we reached, then.
I reached one balloon buddy,
who I named Valter.
- There we have him.
- I think he's a bit bigger than you, yeah.
- One, two.
- And two that bailed, but that's not enough to...
No. They've got to remain in the cup,
so sum total: Two.
- They don't exactly have faces...
- No, but the pen disappeared.
- But this is an appearance, too.
- Yeah, it is.
- Excellent. Good work.
- No, it really wasn't.
- But this is an appearance, too.
- Yeah, it is.
- Excellent. Good work.
- No, it really wasn't.
Now I'll do as Magnus Uggla [singer] used to say
and 'launch my lunch'.
Aah...
- So, how was the motion sickness here?
- Like, the teacups are the worst thing I know.
They spin too much. I can barely swing
on a regular swing, so this was too much for me.
And Fredrik, you had long shpiels at first about
your balloon buddies, then you quieted down, then cut.
Yeah, but I tried to...as long as you can participate,
you try to participate.
It's better to make one buddy, and then go throw up.
Spinny things are very much not for me.
I get terribly nauseous from them.
- But we've got more to see, don't we?
- We certainly do.
It's time to take Johanna and Olof for a spin.
- Are you ready?
- No.
- Then let's go.
- Yeah.
Dammit! Shit! Wait...
- Joel Andersson, mechanic!
- Joel Andersson, mechanic. Good day to you.
- Annika, she works as a librarian!
- Hello, Annika. Pleased to meet you.
No! But wait, David--
- So, balloon number two's on its way.
- Lena Endre, Bris! [children's rights organization]
- Prince?
- No, Bris!
It's spinning a lot, now!
- Tomas Bolme, voice actor!
- Tomas Bolme, voice actor, nice to meet you.
This is Sofia. She's a lash, uh, lash...stylist.
- Lash stylist. Pleased to meet you.
- We can say barber!
Salvador Dalí, artist!
- Ragnar, banker.
- Pleased to meet you, Ragnar.
Imagine if they burst now.
- And up next?
- Lasse Berghagen, song-and-dance man!
Song-and-dance man. How nice to meet you...
I'm doing too many details. This is
Katrin, she's a tattoo artist.
- And who's this?
- Hasse Aro, detective!
- Hasse Aro, detective. At your service...
- Ah jeez, now I'm so dizzy I can't even tell where I am...
Michael Jordan, baske--
NO!
- Hasse flew off!
- We've lost Hasse Aro, but we welcome Michael Jordan.
Here we've got Kristoffer. He works as a baker.
- Lisa Miskovsky, pop-and-rock artist.
- And we've stopped, there.
Y'know, this was actually pretty nice.
- You think it was nice?
- Yeah, how strange.
- Feeling good?
- Yeah, super.
- Lisa Miskovsky, pop-and-rock artist.
- We don't need to...
- Hasse Aro, detective.
- No, we've lost Hasse Aro.
One, two, three.
One two three four, five six seven eight.
In that case, I'm just wondering if you think
this one is bigger than my head?
Now, that one's Tomas Bolme. Voice actor.
He doesn't have that big a head, so
it would've been unrealistic.
- Six balloon buddies. Good work.
- I'll stay here. I'll just...
See you later, then.
- Ah, Johanna. How'd you feel after the ride?
- Really bad. Like, really, really bad. I felt really nauseous.
- You didn't have any tendency to get motion sick, or...?
- As you could see there, I was bracing myself.
It might not be very fashionable to take
that amount of space while riding--
--but it meant that I pressed myself in,
so I never experienced any nausea.
- Yeah, that was impressive.
- And how many balloon buddies did they accumulate?
Well, it's like this--Arantxa two balloon buddies,
Johanna a whole six balloon buddies.
Morgan two, Olof eight balloon buddies,
and Fredrik one balloon buddy.
- The sum total was one.
- I just wanted to check.
And tonight, everyone, we're competing for
no less than this. We've had a replica made--
--of this carnival ride, that you can keep
on your shelf as a memory and think:
"That's right, I sat in one of those
and span around." Cool, right?
Sooner or later all shows reach a middle,
which is also the case with this one--
--and that's when we usually dial it down a bit here on Bäst i Test
and get to know the guest of the week a bit better--
--if that's even possible when the one doing
the interviewing is called David Sundin.
Thank you, thank you. Thank you, thank you.
Lovely words--I absorb them, you know that.
Nam-nam-nam! Thank you, Babben.
- Fredrik Lindström, welcome.
- Thank you.
- You are...tall, taller than most.
- Yes.
- And you're also linguistically interested, I have here in my papers.
- Yeah, a bit.
And there I've probably covered most of it,
I think, or is there something you'd like to add--
--about your person except for these two things?
- Eh, maybe that I'm astigmatic, in that case.
- Uh huh? What does that entail?
- Vision impairment, David.
- I don't know yet, but I think you can use it in personal ads.
But in addition to that, Fredrik, aren't you also
attached to partying to music?
Yeah, now that you mention it.
When I party, I do every so often
put some music on.
That's your thing. The third--tall, linguistically
interested and attached to music.
And how interesting that you mention that,
because it's time to play--
--"Attach to music".
♪ Attach to music
♪ (Attach, attach, attach)
♪ Attach to music, attach to music
We're going to play "Attach to music".
Fredrik, you've got a letter under your cushion
there that you can take out--
--and read to your co-competitors, Babben, me--
--those at home, and the band, of course.
"Attach as many post-it notes on your body as possible.
Most notes when the party's over wins."
"You may only..." Now I'm going to say this is
'fästa' (attach) with an 'Ä', so you understand.
"You may only attach when the music's playing."
Still 'fästa' with an Ä.
"If you attach when the music's not playing you'll
be disqualified. The test starts on David's signal."
In that case, I'd just like to hold
a small eulogy and say this:
I've...you talked a little bit about my dignity.
I'd just like to say a little farewell...thanks, goodbye.
It was nice to, for the first 57 years, have some
dignity, but now we say goodbye.
Thanks a lot.
We're all standing at the station, saying
farewell to Fredrik Lindström's dignity.
I'm going to explain a bit further how the test
works. You'll be wearing blindfolds.
You'll be sitting down, and you'll have access
to these post-it notes.
If two touch each other, I'll remove them
and not count them.
- Both of them?
- Both of them.
But god, you've got good pants for this. Leather pants.
I'm sitting here with these damn corduroy pants.
They're "Attach to music"-repellent pants.
The test starts on my signal. You're welcome to
put on the blindfolds and sit down--
-and I'll blow the whistle when we get going.
So, Arantxa's pulled it down, Johanna's pulling down the blindfold--
When I blow the whistle, we'll get attached to music.
What the hell...!?
- There we are, then!
- It was that fast?
We'll get Olof, then. These two are touching
each other, so we'll get rid of them.
Then I count...one, two, three, four, five, six--
--seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve notes
attached, to music.
- Arantxa. Everything good with you otherwise?
- Yeah...
One, two, three, not touching, four--
--five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
Ten notes, attached to music.
Then there's Fredrik. You can take off the glasses.
- These are touching each other.
- I can agree about that.
This is where you thought:
"Did I put any here? No, I probably haven't." I'll remove that.
- These aren't touching each other. One, two...
- But that one was attached.
Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine notes
attached, to music.
- That was good, Fredrik!
- Morgan. One, two, three, four, five.
Six, seven, eight, nine.
Johanna--one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine notes attached, to music.
And that's how we play "Attach to music".
Right. We've counted up all the attached notes--
--and the points are as follows, there'll
be 5 points for Olof--
--4 for Arantxa, and 3 points each for the rest.
Excellent work, everyone.
At the top of the rankings now, it's
like this:
We've got in a third place Johanna with 11 points,
Arantxa with 14 points, and Olof with 16 points!
Exciting!
- Should we go for another test?
- Let's. Here it comes, and it's time for drama.
- Hello.
- Hi! Here you are, and a door.
"Make the most dramatic entrance."
"Before you make your dramatic entrance,
you should, in a dramatic way, say:"
"This is my most dramatic entrance."
"This...is my most dramatic entrance."
- "You have 60 minutes."
- "Your time starts now."
- Wow, incr--so, 60 minutes?
- A long time.
Okay. Guess I'll go and ponder.
Right. So, the goal was to make as
dramatic an entrance as possible--
--through the door of standard size
attached to the letter.
There was a whole 60 minutes to prepare,
so one could imagine this'll be something really grand.
So, who of our five participants will
be knocking first?
I think we'll let Johanna make
an explosive entrance.
This is my most dramatic entrance.
- Oh, damn!
- Cool.
- Yeah, that was dramatic. Good work.
- Thanks, thanks.
Shall we...?
Right, Johanna. Fire and some violence.
What do you say when you see this?
I had such visions.
You don't get it! I was...
I was nervous and standing like this--
"this, I mean, this is gonna be..."
Fire, fire, fire! I was gonna kick the door down
and come in and save the world.
But it is what it is. Who's the next drama queen
to make their entrance?
Now it's time for a historic
presentation, directed by Arantxa.
This is my most dramatic entrance.
- If it isn't Anckarström!
- Gustav III!
How could you do this to me?!
Good work.
Right, Arantxa. This was an incredibly
loose interpretation of the murder of Gustav III.
And I might've had too many blood pills there, maybe.
They're really bitter, don't taste too good.
Didn't get as much bloodflow as I was hoping,
but it was dramatic still, right?
- And you still got the flavor in there.
- Yeah.
A historical setting with
some meaning behind it.
This just gets better and better, I think.
Who steps onto stage next?
Now it's Morgan's turn to break down any
preconceptions about dramatic entrances.
This is my most dramatic entrance.
- David? I'm here now.
- Okay.
David!
- You still there?!
- Yeah.
- The horses are saddled.
- Right. Let's go, then.
- The horses are saddled!
- Yup, yup.
- Is that dramatic, do you think?
- Very dramatic.
- That's what my vision was like!
- Yeah, so why didn't you do that?
But you--you kicked so well!
- Yeah, I'm used to kicking doors in.
- Well, it looked good and dramatic. What next, David?
Now it's time for dead seriousness with Olof.
Sensitive viewers beware.
- Right! I can take your order now.
How nice. Hey, it says "arm" here...
If I was you--don't take the arm,
look a little bit more down here.
We've got, for example, chopped mussles.
They've been plated and chopped.
No, you know what? I'll try the arm.
- It's just--it's nothing, it's just that I'm alone in the kitchen...
- Are you okay?
- It's fine, it's just--
- One arm, please.
How nice. And what a nice place.
This is my most dramatic entrance.
Did you have to order the arm when I'm
alone in the kitchen!?
Thanks, thanks...
Good work.
- I'm alone in the kitchen...
- Yeah, you said.
- Right, Olof. You gave up your own arm here.
- Yeah, but it was like--"kebab arm", I thought. Dramatic.
The dramatics of being at a restaurant, alone in
the kitchen, and he has the gall to order arm.
- Then there's just one door-opening left.
- So there is, and it's time for--
--a winding, grandiose trip through an
artistic life: I give you Fredrik Lindström.
"You have 60 minutes.
Your time starts now."
I understand quite well that you wonder
which one is my most dramatic entrance--
--is it maybe when I, as Desdemona's
doomed-to-die husband, am dragged in, in chains--
--by a nude Börje Ahlstedt, [actor]
only to be humiliated by my wife on stage and catch her--
--cheating on me with 400 Spartans? No! No!
That's not my most dramatic entrance.
Is it maybe when I'm winched down in "King Lear" in a burning basket
of flames from the Royal Dramatic Theatre's ceiling--
--and catch 20 mentally deranged nuns who've been cheating on me,
and are trying to get back at me by impaling me on anchovy forks?
No. That's not my most dramatic entrance,
even if you might think so. I understand quite well how you'd think so.
Is it maybe my entrance
in "The Cherry Orchard", you say--
--where I'm sent, greased up with bear fat from St. Petersburg,
through a gas pipeline, and onto the Royal Dramatic Theatre's main stage--
--arm-in-arm with a turned-on Putin? No.
No. No. No, no, no, no...
This is my most dramatic entrance.
Good work.
Right, Fredrik. Were you really prepared for this
door falling off? You looked a bit surprised yourself.
I was thinking a bit like, as Tommy Berggren [actor] usually says,
"Is it possible that I'm this good? Is it possible that I'm this magnificient?"
"I'm crossing every line and every boundary right now."
- And then I may look surprised, even if it, so to speak...
- Is planned.
Then, Babben, it's time to assign some points
to these dramatic entrances.
That's right. And this was high-level
dramatics across the board, I think--
--so I've actually divided them into two categories,
which are 'good' and 'better'.
Among the good are
Fredrik, Olof and Arantxa.
You get 3 points each for these
dramatic entrances.
Then we've got Johanna and Morgan,
who not only went for drama but also action.
- You get 4 points each.
- So good and better, quite simply.
- And then we'll move on with the next test.
- Yes indeed. And now, we're heading out for a small stroll.
Okay...
- Hi, hi!
- Hi.
You going slalom skiing?
"Take a walk with David
consisting of exactly 589 steps."
"During the walk you must maintain David's tempo
and make pleasant conversation."
"The one who says 'thanks for the walk'
closest to 589 steps taken wins."
"The test starts when David takes his first step." Uh huh.
- 589? I'm the one who has to count?
- Yeah.
- And make conversation? Ugh.
- Yeah.
Right. So, a lovely walk in the sun.
The snag was that you had to count
to exactly 589 steps--
--while keeping an even pace with me, and, well, I do
enjoy chit-chatting about this and that while out for a walk.
Yes. We'll start with Johanna, Morgan,
and the flâneur of flâneurs, Fredrik Lindström.
Alright, Morgan. Let's head off.
Lovely.
- Everything alright with you, otherwise?
- Really good. So dang good.
- Lovely, lovely, lovely...
- This walk is actually starting to--hi, Ulf!
- Ulf Adelsohn. [politician]
- Yeah, he biked past here.
Here we are, back on the road.
- Can you name any Swedish types of tree?
- Yeah, I certainly can if you want me to.
- Yeah?
- Oh, you think I should--well, I know birch, alder...
- Are there a lot of larch [lärk] trees in Lärkstaden?
- No, almost none. I've lived there.
- It's from something else?
- Yeah. The district names, Tofslärkan and such.
- You're keeping my pace?
- I am, but I think it's so fun to just...
- I love that.
- They were a bit moist, still.
♪ A three-cornered man came in...
And continue.
- ♪ There was...leather...
- ♪ He had clogs and a birchwood jacket...
- It's important to keep the old ticker going.
- Really is.
- And it goes a little something like this...
♫ You're nobody
♫ 'til somebody loves you
I'm totally lost, David.
580...now, we're stopping soon. Then I'd like you to stop--
there for your last step, so to speak.
I think that there's where I say
thanks for this walk.
- Thanks for the walk.
- Ah, it was nothing.
- You've got no idea?
- No idea, but what a walk!
- Thanks for the walk.
- Ah, it was nothing.
- You've got no idea?
- No idea, but what a walk!
We could do this again. And I can ask ol' Ulfy
to come and bike past, to perk us up--
--in case we run out of topics to talk about.
- Thanks for the walk.
- You too. I should be thanking you.
- No...
- No, but it...thanks. Thank you.
- Aspen.
- Good work.
Right, there was some perambulating there.
Morgan, are you good at this thing of
keeping two things in your head at the same time?
Yeah, it, no--I was trying to work out
the first 100 meters, I thought.
"That oak there and that oak there's probably 100.", I thought.
I had a bit of tactics like that, but
I think that after 40-50 meters I was totally lost.
That's when I thought: "I'll chance it."
That's not too bad.
And I think you also thought it was
a bit messy to keep count.
Yeah, I was trying to...
see the numbers in front of me.
Like, I was constantly thinking about the numbers,
but I was thinking of them in pictures.
Wait, whoa, what? What did you say? You
thought of the numbers as pictures?
Like, I was thinking while walking...
Seeing the numbers there, one, two,
at the same time as I was listening to...
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was smart.
- So there was a plan, at least.
- And how'd these three do?
- Interesting, interesting...
- Morgan's walk lasted for 425 steps.
- That wasn't bad.
- 164 steps from the goal.
- No, but that's not too shabby.
Fredrik's walk was 476 steps, so
113 steps away. Just a bit better.
- Morgan's still good, as mentioned, but now, everyone...
- Best at being the worst.
- Are you sitting down?
- Yeah.
- You are, yes. You're sitting down.
- Yeah.
Johanna Nordström.
The goal was 589 steps.
Johanna walked 580 steps.
- What!?
- Just nine steps away, because she saw them as pictures!
I saw the numbers as pictures.
Very impressive, Johanna.
And it's exciting...
I think we'll take a look at Arantxa's walk.
Arantxa Àlvarez.
Where's the name from?
Uh...it's from...Spain.
From Spain. A Spanish name,
how nice, how nice.
- You're a bit of an arts-and-crafts type.
- You could say that.
- What do you usually make?
- I like...sewing. Sewing kimonos.
- But your dialect...
Your dialect isn't from Spain.
It's from...
- Whoops.
- From...?
- Norrköping.
- Norrköping? Norrköping, right.
Oh! Ah--
- Lovely to be out in nature.
- Yeah.
- It's getting a bit darker around the evenings.
- Yeah...
- Do you like the dark?
- ...No.
I prefer it when it's light.
- Do you cook a lot at home?
- Yeah.
- What do you make, then?
- I like...trying out...new recipes.
- New recipes? What type of thing?
- Eh...oh, no...
- Eh...
- Oh? So it's not too tasty?
No.
David? I'd like to thank you so much
for the walk. Thanks for the walk.
- Nice.
- Fun to find out a bit more about you, too.
- Good work.
- Yeah, you too.
Right, Arantxa. It felt like you kept count a pretty long time,
but then what happened?
No, like, I was trying to maintain the conversation
like it was regular one, not at all trying to count in my head--
- --but it was choppier than I thought.
- When you see it.
I thought it was smooth, you and me
found each other there in our deep conversation...
But that was choppier than I thought. I
actually have no idea how that could've gone.
- You were the worst conversation partner of the gang.
- But I did answer your questions.
- In due time.
- Yeah, in due time.
Arantxa's walk was close as well, it should be said.
She walked 533 steps, so 56 steps away,
and is currently in second place.
But isn't there a smarter method to solve this,
that would let one beat Johanna's score?
Yes, there just might've been.
We're taking a look at the man who's made a name for himself--
--with his smart methods: Olof.
- How about a little walk?
- Isn't that nice!
- Where're you from, Olof?
- Umeå.
- You've got a lot of nature there, right?
- We have it about 87 degrees colder a year than you.
- Do you get a lot of nature, then?
- 99 percent no.
- What sort of music is there in the Wretling household?
- "147 degrees" by Ebba Grön.
- Otherwise a lot of theatre for you?
- 200 per cent!
201, 205...
- He had a lot of speed, that guy.
- Yeah, he was doing about 270 kilometers an hour.
- You think so? How old are you this year?
- 300.
300 years. 301, 302, 303, 304...
You know, I wouldn't have guessed, Olof.
How of you are there in Klungan? [Olof's theatre troupe]
- 330 people.
- That you can even remember their names...
- What's your favorite animal, Olof?
- One of those 530-point moose.
- One of those that you hang on the walls.
- You know what? Never seen one.
- Never seen one? You can come over to my place.
- Never seen one.
So we were sitting at the bank, and I say like--
"What interest rate would you like?" And I hear myself say:
- "565 percent!"
- "Deal!"
David? Thanks for the walk.
Now I'll step--I'll double-check the count on back.
- What did the double-check turn up?
- I don't know.
But this might've been a winning concept.
You did kept count pretty okay.
- What did this result in?
- Well, Olof had a really good method.
And it would've been really sweet
if it had worked.
There always has to be a "but" in my life.
I recognize this situation. "But..."
If the method had worked...or, I'll say it like this--
The method worked, but you didn't remember
that it was 589 steps.
- Instead, you thought it was 689 steps.
- Yeah, think so.
And you walked 685 steps of those 689 steps.
If you'd remembered it correctly you would've won,
but as-is you're 104 steps above.
You were the only one who went too far,
and you only get 3 points.
Otherwise, the points are as follows: Johanna 5 points, applause,
Arantxa 4 points, Fredrik 2 points, and Morgan 1 point.
I don't want to be bitter here, but
I did perceive it as--
--that if you didn't make conversation in a
consummate way, you would be disq...
Of course I want to be bitter. I really want
to be bitter. I want to be a sore loser.
Because I put all my energy
into leading as proper a conversation as possible.
We discussed at least some tens of,
tree types in Djurgården, their foliage--
--and different properties and such things.
For this thing with the amount of steps, I was thinking:
"Stay somewhere within the closest 100."
- Did you have someone particular in mind?
- Yes, Arantxa should've been disqualified.
Arantxa was the worst conversation partner,
and you were the best, Fredrik, you should have that.
Yes, it--that's--I'm happy being last if I get a bit of
recognition for being the best conversation partner.
The points have been distributed. We can debate
about whether it's fair or not...no, no, let's not debate.
But in that case, we've got a split first place.
Olof and Arantxa both have 25 points each...
Then we've got Johanna at 22 points,
and so on in descending order...
This means that anything can happen
and everything can change, because it's time for the finale.
Finale time. Arantxa, you can read
these instructions.
"Score a goal in your basketball hoop
with your egg. Most goals wins."
"You have 60 seconds.
The test starts on David's signal."
Right. So, in 60 seconds, you should score
as many goals as possible in this basketball hoop.
- It's a raw egg you're getting.
- Do you get disqualified when it breaks?
You'll be allotted the points that you've
worked your way up to, so if you've scored 100--
--and then the egg breaks,
that will count.
You can't move or overturn the basket or so on,
that remains where it is.
Is everyone ready?
Then it's 60 seconds from...
- Morgan!
- Morgan can go sit down.
No!
- Can...no!
- What're you doing?
- But I was going to--I mean, I dro--it was against my finger--
- Nothing to vote on here, right?
- But it hasn't even started!
- Then it's 60 seconds. Three, two...
- No!
- Arantxa's out. Johanna's out.
- Fredrik's out.
- I didn't even--did you get through?
- No!
Olof...it's amazing to see a
master at work.
Round of applause! Olof Wretling!
So let's sum this up, everyone.
Such amazing displays.
So, everyone's eggcited and finished.
And how did this actually wind up?
So, it's like this--Olof was the only one
who actually got more than one throw...
--and that's 5 points. Then there's Fredrik,
who still managed to get it in once.
- It did go through the ring.
- If you say so.
Don't bicker, because that's
still a four--4 points there.
But then the rest didn't get the egg
through the hoop a single time.
Morgan didn't even make it
to the starting line.
Sum total: If we put together all these points
we have, in fifth place, Fredrik.
Total: 14 points. Then we've got Morgan,
21 points, Johanna 23 points--
--Arantxa, with her one-pointer, steps up to 26 points--
--but with Olof's five he
climbs up to 30 points--
--and is the winner of tonight's show,
and receives this replica of the carousel.
It's a little miniature! Kind of cool--take a look.
And what have we learned tonight? Well, that
hobby-horses often knock things down with their hind legs--
--and to hold onto your buddies in the carousel,
or they'll disappear. See you next week! Come on, let's congratulate the winner, here...
