A warm welcome to Bäst i Test, the show where we always think outside the famous box.
And those who run, jump, and sometimes fall flat are our regular panel:
Here comes the powerhouse, Johanna Nordström!
The energy bomb, Morgan Alling!
The magnetic Arantxa Àlvarez!
And the mushroom cloud Olof Wretling!
And in Bäst i Test, we do have a tradition that the one who was worst last year gets the chance--
--to come back and get revenge.
And the one who drew the shortest straw last year was the charming sillybilly--
Kristina "Keyyo" Petrushina!
And tonight you will, among other things, see this.
- Stop! No! No! Why'd he breathe? - You can't sit down!
- Can you jump from here? - I don't have the energy to explain.
This is Sparta!
Yes indeedy, that's how it'll look.
And, faithfully by my side like a bottlefed lamb, here he is, David Sundin!
Thank you, thank you. Thank you, thank you. Lovely words, Babben.
- And the panel - you're feeling good? - Great.
- Morgan, got any soreness from the workout last week? - Yeah, I think I've got a lot of that.
Mostly I've been very ashamed, so I've been at home a lot,
Since--you get ashamed being out on the town, so I apologize now in advance.
Yeah, but worth mentioning, I'd say, is that Keyyo's actually been here three seasons--
--and that is, after all, a world record, I'd say.
No other participant has been here so often. A true Bäst i Test-hat trick.
- So how does it feel to write Bäst i Test-history? - It feels powerful, actually, but also pretty sad to come here on account of being that bad.
- Yeah, you were the worst. - Thanks.
Totally. I mean, totally the worst.
It still wasn't me who walked into the pole last season, I want to emphasize. - True. True.
Enough chit-chatting, nice as it is. We've got to get a move on.
- And what are you serving up for the evening's first test, David? - Now, it's time for fruit.
- Hello, hello! - Howdy-doo.
- Hi! - Hello.
- Should I read...outside, here? - That's fine.
- Reading here, or can I go in? - That's up to you.
Well, in that case, I'd like to be close to you. ...You started the timer, there!
"Ingest the watermelon." ..."Ingest"?
"The one who in...ges...ts the most wins."
"The watermelon may not leave the greenhouse."
- "You have 5 minutes." - "Your time starts when you... enter the greenhouse!"
Right. So, the goal was to either eat or drink--ingest--
--as much watermelon as possible, but it wasn't allowed to leave the greenhouse.
The time started when you entered the greenhouse, so for some it's already begun.
We'll start by watching Olof and Johanna.
- There you are, huh. Hello. - Hi.
Okay, so now you're going to go in and start? And what're you thinking, what's your tactic?
I'm thinking I'll peel, sizzle it down, drink.
- Okay. - Then your time starts now.
Okay.
Oh, but what the hell...! No! I mean, it's...
Damn, if that isn't cold...
- I mean, it's frozen! - It's frozen?
It would've been easier if it was 'unfrozen', so to speak.
- But how'm I supposed to--how am I supposed to eat this? - Mhm. That's what the actual 'test' is, so to speak.
I'll just have to start like, taking a little. Mhm, that's good.
- Now, that's... - [indistinguishable]
- How long do I have left now, then? - Two minutes left.
Ah, but this is fine.
You've gotta have the lid!
- Oh no, not down in... - You're not really supposed to do this!
- Jeez, I haven't had anything! - The lid goes on now, then you start it. I think that's the order that, you know...
But sometimes, David, you don't have the time!
- I've got, you know, a wisdom tooth that's currently growing out. - That's currently...?
Growing out. And it's so cold. Like, you don't get how cold this is in my mouth.
Yeah, well, it was frozen.
30 seconds left. Now there's just the tasty part left.
10...you got some peel there, still?
- God damn! - Two, one, zero.
Should we call it there? It gets cold, you know, all up in...
- Almost enough to hurt. - So dignified...
- Right, Johanna, 'dignity' might not be the word. - Yeah, but that was... I mean, I didn't know what I was doing.
Just "Guess I'll just wolf it down." I ate the peels! Lot of vitamins, there.
And Olof, you know that more stays in the blender if you keep the lid on.
- How much watermelon do you think disappeared there that just jumped back out? - Must be something like half a kilo.
- But you managed to have some, too? - Yeah, it was very cold. You feel like that seeing it, you get very cold, just like the watermelon.
- Who're up next to go nuts on the melons? - Next up are Arantxa and Morgan.
Hope you've got a craving for watermelon! It's frozen, huh...
- 3 minutes and 40 seconds left. - Jeez, no--what the heck are you saying?
Well, I said that there's...
3 minutes and...3 minutes and 10 seconds left.
This is how it's done where I'm from.
- ...This thing is frozen! - No...
- Why'd you have to freeze it?! - It's a bit of a surprise, you might say.
Microwave!
- So, it's the amount that's gotten... - IN the mouth. "In-gest"!
Think it might be there it's from, actually. "Ingest".
- How long do I have left? - A bit less than a minute... The peel isn't good.
No, but it's going down.
Oh, that's cold!
Eye contact.
Five, four, three--
--two, one, zero.
- Ah, this wasn't any good. But... - Yeah, but still, hold it up, show that...
Yup, that's been ingested. I'd say about a tablespoon.
Maybe a bit more. Maybe two tablespoons, thereabouts.
- Good job. - Good. Good test, good test.
Thank you, thank you.
Right. Morgan, how was it again--were you allowed to take the watermelon out of the greenhouse?
Uh, I thought so at the time. At the time, I thought that.
I thought "Now I'm gonna be smart! Microwave, hot."
Now I got to hear, words flying out here, that you weren't allowed to bring it out. Apparently I hadn't read the whole letter.
- So you get how many points? - If I can guess? None.
Very accurate, very accurate. But we've got more to watch, right?
Mhm, that's true. Now we're releasing Keyyo from the freezer.
There, now. Okay.
But...!
- What a genius! - Yeah, that was nuts.
- Gotta be done, now. - Starting the timer there.
- Oh, tasty! - Like slicing through butter.
Oh, it's still frozen inside. Oh god, that's cold.
- So, it is a bit cold? - Mhm.
I've got brain freeze.
You'd think that if something's in a microwave that long it should get hot, but it seems it doesn't. Still very, very cold.
- This is the worst pain I've experienced. - It goes up through the head.
And lunch after this, too. Three, two, one, zero.
Good job. You can leave, then.
Yes, Keyyo! You could really tell here that you're a Bäst i Test-veteran.
You got exactly what you were supposed to do. You never went into the greenhouse, and still managed to thaw it.
- But how warm did it get? - Pretty thawed, still.
Wait, but I don't get--I--wait, didn't we just get five minutes for this?
- The time started when you entered the greenhouse, which you did... - Which I did immediately, yes. That's right!
And then you removed the melon, so the fact that you've got questions about this is a bit funny.
- Strange. Very strange that I do, but I do have questions. - But Keyyo, did you suspect it was frozen?
Uh, I'd say just a good look in combination with luck.
'Cause I pulled it over, and that's when I discovered it was frozen.
Alright. Let's sum up, then. - Right, so...
So, I weighed the melons before and then, to the best of my abilities, weighed what was left.
And then I've scrutinized the video material from this and, meticulously, established how this happened.
Morgan did gnaw off a tiny tablespoon, perhaps. But he's also mondo disqualified, so that doesn't matter.
Arantxa pried open the melon with a crowbar and got a few bites, so 2 points for Arantxa.
Johanna fought the cold and ate her way to 3 points.
Olof, blending a little, got even more--4 points.
But the winner is without a doubt bon vivant Keyyo, who clearly ate the most melon. Five points! A comeback, Keyyo!
Nice!
Keyyo might be the first returning participant who gets their revenge, after all.
And what would one have the chance to win tonight?
How nice that you're asking, Babben. On the topic of watermelons, tonight's victor will go home with a tantalizing fruit basket.
What do you say to that, huh?
I'm more and more beginning to suspect that you're the one who's come up with this year's prizes.
Maybe so, but listen to this:
That's a fruit basket that contains, among other things, quince, pears, bananas, pomegranades--
Clementines, pineapple, kiwi, lime, lemon, canary melon, avocado--stuff like that.
In short, it's a fruit basket. In that case, I think we'll move to the next test.
Let's do that, here it comes. And hold on to your seats, because thar she blows.
Good day. Ooh!
"Inflate the balloon until it pops. Fastest wins."
"You may not inflate the balloon with your mouth."
"You have ten minutes to prepare your inflation method..."
"After which your balloon-inflation-time starts on David's signal. You may not move the balloon, the nails, or the table."
- "Your time starts now." - I know exactly what I'm getting!
- What're you getting? - One of those...phew! Doo-doo-doo-doo.
Ooh, it's tough.
Right! So, the goal was to inflate the balloon and make it pop inside this ring with nails.
You weren't allowed to move the balloon, and, that's right, you couldn't inflate it with your mouth.
Which usually is a prime tool for inflating balloons.
- Exactly. Who're we starting with? - I think it'd be kind of interesting to see Morgan.
- It always is, I'd say! - Ah, thanks.
Hi, David!
You do...
There, now. I'll try it.
- Are you ready, Morgan? - Yeah, go for it!
- You're kidding! - Whoops.
Keep pumping.
- It's growing! - Yes, yes, yes. It's never been this big before.
- Could that've been the last pumping? - No.
Come on, come on, come on! Could it be just one more pump?
I'll never surrender!
Wow, wow...
- Hell of a bang. Good job. - Thanks!
But Morgan, I've gotta admit, I see an improvement straight away here.
You could've had the vent open and been pumping the whole time. Were you stressed?
Well, uh, I want to try out different techniques. And this is the one I thought was best.
I thought it was quickest. Pump, pump... Then inflate.
- And how long did this take? - Well, Morgan pumped on for 4 minutes and 44 seconds before it popped. Impressive!
- We don't know that yet! - It might be. Might be.
You weren't allowed to inflate the balloon yourself. But were there any loopholes?
There just might be. Let's look at Arantxa and Keyyo.
Excuse me! Would you like to help me inflate a balloon?
It'll take a minute of your time and you'll be able to brag to your friends. You want to?
- Uh, yeah. - Come on, then!
Hi, sorry--are you busy? I mean, not within your life, but...
Can you please help me? Do you have, like, one minute? Yay!
- What's your name, by the way? - Christian.
- Christian's got strong lungs, doesn't smoke. - Pleasure, pleasure.
You have this balloon. This is not a joke, for real.
Can you please blow it up?
- Are you ready? Go! - Christian! Oh damn, those lungs!
What an adventure Christian turned out to get today.
More! More! It's okay, you can breathe.
No, no, no, stop, no--why'd he breathe?
- Continue! Yes! - Poor people.
- You're not gonna faint, are you, Christian? - No, no, he's--you can rest on me.
- You can do it! I believe in you! A little bit more! - Getting close...
- It's close now, it's close now, come on! - Come on, Christian!
Oh, damn...
A little bit more!
It worked! You're the king! Right, back to work, otherwise your boss'll get mad.
Nice to meet you!
- Good job. - Thank you. Goodbye.
- What was his name? - Yeah...Ferdinand. No.
- Ferdinand? - I don't know what his name was.
- Like the bull? - What was his name?
...hope he wants to be on TV.
- Oh, wow. What social competence you've got, girls. - Get out there and just catch men, it's no biggie.
Christian didn't hesitate, he just went right in there and started blowing.
Ferdinand the bull was very cooperative too, but why wasn't he allowed to breathe?
But like, he didn't get the task. It was a matter of life and death, and he didn't get it.
Well, it was hard to understand that it was a life-and-death thing, inflating a balloon.
What times have you noted down, here?
Right...Arantxa and Christian popped the balloon in 1 minute and 27 seconds.
While Keyyo and Ferdinand managed in merely 41 seconds.
"But what might Olof have come up with", you might be wondering. We'll get to see that right now.
- Let's see here now, David, and now I'll... - A balloon pump?
Exactly, and then I will, as a part of the planned-scheduling of...
My balloon time...that is, I'm using my planning time with the balloon--
--to inflate it, and then I want you to say "your time starts now"--
--and then I'll lie down underneath and do the last bit.
You're done planning now? Then your time starts now.
- There y'go! - Good job.
That was impressive. Hat's off.
Yeah, Olof...did you really get the go-ahead to start with the balloon inflation?
...I s--I said 'I'm starting now'.
Bold move, but you didn't win a lot with that. You bent the rulebook a little bit much, here.
What would it look like if you got to prepare all the tests before the time started?
No false starts, so you are, as they say, thrown out to the curb. Zero points.
I really was on your side there.
But then we've just got Johanna to go. And I've got a feeling she's come up with some really potent inflation method.
Yeah. Sometimes we do, in fact, save the best for last.
Hi, hi.
So you're done building...? Then we'll start on my signal.
Now!
- How'd it go? - No, it hasn't popped.
- But did it inflate at all? - Just a bit.
- This was how little it inflated? The whole time? - Maybe a little bit more. It might not be 100% airtight.
But the car's making noise...
- I think I'll go turn the car off. - Great idea.
And that's where your time ended. A bit of a flat tire, this one.
But I was thinking there that now, I've invented the wheel. Like, that now I've come up with, like, that this...
- We were saying that, too. "Now that's smart". - You were still thinking, like, "she knows what's up".
So how're the points divided, thanks to this?
Well, here's how it looks: Since Olof's disqualified, that actually means that Johanna's leaking exhaust pipe gives 2 points.
Then 3 for Morgan, 4 for Arantxa, and Keyyo brings home her second five-pointer in a row for her comeback.
The fruit basket.
- Hold on here, now. David, let's step up to the next test. - We shall, and it's time for sports with Jacob Hård.
Warm welcome to Stockholm's stadium, where it's time for the large-step competition.
The racetrack is ready for our competitors, and we'll finally get to see--
--who's the best at taking steps that are larger than the previous one.
David is ready. The audience is...not here, but let's get going, now.
And the competitors are: Number 55, Kristina Petrushina.
- 67, Morgan Alling. - 27 laps.
- 20, Arantxa Àlvarez. - Hi, David!
3, Olof Wretling.
And 95, Johanna Nordström.
- "Get as far as you can on the racetrack." - "You may only transport yourself using steps."
...so, like this.
"If you take a step shorter than the one you took previously, the test will end."
"You have 10 minutes. Your time starts on David's signal." Hoo, wait, wait, wait...
Right. So, the goal was to, using steps, traverse as long a distance as possible.
With the limitation being that no step could be shorter than the one preceding. So if I step, like this--
--the next one must be slightly further than that, and the next one slightly further than that, and...
- I think everyone in here's gotten it now, actually. - Right. Okay. Not too tricky.
- And who are stepping to the plate first? - Yes--that'll be Arantxa, Morgan, Olof and Keyyo.
Ooh, a dead heat!
- And we're off. - So, you can take your first step.
- Here's the first step. Olof's first step. - A long opening step from Wretling.
- Yeah, but that's smart, right? We're going far. - It's frighteningly smart. Going far.
Go ahead and measure.
Alling and Petrushina seem to be opening with more cautious tactics.
- That step is 20 centimeters. - That'll be great.
Àlvarez places herself somewhere in the middle.
- I'm allowed to fall over. - Uh huh?
88 centimeters.
- Well jeez, I can't keep going like this. - But the steps will get longer and longer, so to speak.
- But it's real damn far. - Yeah, but nobody's said you've got to get over there.
Wretling is dangerously close to skipping, but I think he's sticking within the rules of stepping here.
1 meter and 7 centimeters.
- Yes... - You're so close.
Àlvarez is pressing her short, short, short legs to the max. It's wonderful seeing such willpower.
- But now you've taken a shorter step than the last. - That marks the end for Àlvarez.
- And that also marked the end for Petrushina. - I was very clear with how steps work.
- 12.5. - 12.5, yes.
Alling, slightly late out from pole position.
- And you've walked...10 centimeters. - No! No, no, no--it's over for Alling here as well.
- Yeah, but the last, and... - An incredibly wretched performance, actually.
- These things simply can't happen at this level. - Thanks, Jacob.
A real shame, but to be entirely honest we probably didn't expect more from Alling.
Here's Wretling. Wretling goes for the gold, and... No! Oh, oh, oh...
Wretling missteps. No more steps for Wretling in today's competition.
- That'll have to do, then. - But Olof, you should at least get a "good job".
- Alright. So here we are, then. - This is a good job.
What nice performances we've gotten to see so far.
But we'll take a short break here and return to Babben and David in the studio.
That was weak, Morgan, that was weak. 31!
Thanks, Jacob. I have to start with Olof--that's some balance you've got! Are you an old gymnast, or?
Yeah, but what a step! Should've probably had some more Alling-thinking at the start. Went a bit hard on the offense.
Considering the way the results turned out, I don't think you should've used Alling-thinking.
And Keyyo, you would've noticed that even supporting steps count as steps.
Yeah, but I can't get over that Morgan took one sheet of A4-paper total in steps.
- No, no, no leaving the premises! - Sum total: One A4-paper, that's the turnout.
- But the result is pretty clear here, isn't it? - Right, so as we saw here the old sportsman Olof is in the lead right now.
And now it's unbearably exciting. There's just one participant left.
Here she is once again, in the final sprint, number 95: Johanna Nordström.
- Wait, I can start...? - Nordström gets going.
- This is my step. - That's your step? That is, so to speak, zero.
But what's Nordström doing?
- And then the question is, can a step be shorter than zero? - No.
Has Johanna Nordström found a loophole here?
- So now you're taking another step. - Incredible!
- Damn, I mean--people are going to take long steps. - So smart, and so beautiful to see.
- Nordström flies through the track. - Now this is like, what's his name...Usain Bolt.
She even has the confidence to play Usain Bolt's counting game.
One and two and three and four and five, six, seven, eight...
What a performance! It certainly looks like she'll be the one to bring it home--
--but that's not up to me to decide, but rather the almighty Babben Larsson.
- Wrong! Wrong, wrong! I object! - But it was zero! So you can have...
- Every step needs to be longer than the preceding. - No. It can't be shorter.
Unfortunately. Those were the rules. Johanna, you really blew this wide open.
- David, you sleeping? How about the points? - Ah, sorry. Let's see. Morgan, that's 1 point for you.
I did get one? Then I'm happy.
Arantxa 2 points, Keyyo 3 points, Olof 4 points, Johanna 5 crystal clear points!
Yes! And run the totals too, while you're up and about.
This does mean that - believe it or not - Keyyo's in the lead with 13 points!
Then we've got Johanna with 10 points, Olof and Arantxa with 8 points each--
--and Morgan, well, he's also here, and holding onto his 4 points tightly.
And now we've gotten almost exactly halfway, and therefore to the agenda item known as "the middle of the show".
Where the guest of the week will be interviewed, which is something that some--not all, but some--especially look forward to...
- Go ahead, David Sundin. - Thank you, thank you. Thank you, thank you.
- Keyyo? What's up with you, then? - Fun.
- Fun's up? - Fun's up.
Wouldn't it be cool, Keyyo, if you won tonight? If you showed them?
"Take a look at me now!" If you turned this around. We'll see. What do you think?
- Do you think you'll win tonight? - Yeah. Yes.
I do know you pretty well by this point, and I don't actually think you can make it.
Just saying how I feel, there. One of your most distinctive traits, Kristina--
--is that you respect Babben's opinion, right? You respect her.
You think, just like me, that Babben's right about everything, and is fantastic.
You do as Babben says, quite simply. How funny! What a funny coincidence...
Because as a matter of fact, it's time to play Babben says!
♪ Babben says-- (What?)
♪ Babben says
(Who?)
♪ Babben says
Babben says.
So, my friends, it's time to play 'Babben says'.
Kristina, be so kind as to read this letter for your co-competitors and the rest of us.
"Put on the blindfold and do what Babben says. The one who best does what Babben says wins."
"You may not do anything Babben says until Babben's said 'Babben says'."
"If you fail to do what Babben says, or leave your podium, you'll be out."
- "The test starts on David's signal." - So, Babben will say an instruction. You wait...
And then she'll say "Babben says". Only then you may do what she's saying. That's the important part.
Otherwise you're eliminated--if you do it too early, do it wrong, or leave the podium. Everyone understood?
Then it's time to put on the blindfolds.
In that case, Babben, it's time to hand out some instructions. The test starts now.
Put your left elbow on your right knee--
--shake your butt and whistle, Babben says.
Wait...
I went down...wait...
I went down towards my knee.
I mean, I...and then I just felt "Why did I do that?"
Yes. I'd say that you can take off the blindfold and take a seat.
Hold your ears out using your hands, open your mouth, and put your right foot behind the left.
That puts both Olof and Kristina out of the running.
I haven't done anything! Well, I'll be damned...
A new instruction, then. Squat down, put your hands on your head and nod your head persistently.
Babben says.
- Incredible scenes being performed here. - Yeah, it's good.
Thank you! Neutral position.
Stand with your right side in profile towards me, stand on your left leg, right hand on your forehead--
--while your left hand points straight ahead, Babben says.
You can take off your blindfolds, because we have a winner. Arantxa is the best at doing what Babben says!
And that's how we play "Babben says", Babben says.
Yes indeed. Well done by all involved. How are the points divided?
Well, that--"well done by all involved"--Johanna got 1 point, but it was well done up until you got 1 point...
3 points for Olof and Keyyo, 4 for Morgan, and Arantxa gets 5.
But don't you feel a bit of a craving for another test?
Mhm, I opt to agree with you there, Babben. And now for a test that's very dear to my heart.
- Hi. - Hello.
Hello! Here you are, standing in Babben's shadow. Oh, shady lady...me, that is.
"Celebrate Babben with help from a celeb."
"Best celebration wins. Bonus points for most famous celeb."
"You have 100 days. Your time starts now."
And that should be...recorded, or what?
It could be recorded, but who knows? The celeb might be there.
Think this should work, yeah.
Ah, finally some focus on me on this show.
You deserve every celebration in the world, Babben. You know that. And in this test, the panel is competing for--
--to win your favor with the help of a celeb. Best tribute wins, but--
--in addition, there'll be a bonus point awarded for most famous celeb.
Time for the presentations. We're going to take a look at what Keyyo's cooked up.
Dear, lovely Babben Larsson!
Last year you were not only the kindest, but also the naughtiest girl!
If you know what I mean!
I'm already looking forward to next Christmas,
When you will sit on Santa's lap again.
Bye-bye! I celebrate you!
I-I'm starting to feel where this is going. And I want to say, before you give me a low grade and bad scores:
This cost me 13 bucks, and he was from New Zealand.
And I feel that now that I saw this on a big screen, and you're looking, there's kind of an anticlimax.
Because it felt very celebratory when you saw the small version, you know, but when you expand it...
But now, you know, we've got that one.
And now it's time to move on and look at Olof's celebration of Babben with help from a celeb.
- Babben, do you do greetings and stuff like that? - Yeah, I do.
I've got this friend called Babben. And she's really sweet and kind.
She works with a guy who's very, you know, annoying at work. But we don't need to cover that--just a colleague.
- If we could just do something like "Hey, Barbro..." - Yeah, go ahead.
Hi, Barbro. Sending a little greeting to you. You never know, you might need a little bit extra positive energy--
--and here it is. There! Have a good one, bye!
Wow!
- Famous! Very famous, still. - Yeah, definitely famous.
Feels a bit strange that I celebrated myself.
But wait, stop, what was the tribute? Where was the tribute?
- Yeah, but this--it was, you know, there was love there. - She said 'greeting'.
Babben's bad at celebrations, is that what you're saying?
No, I think Olof's bad at explaining to Babben who's supposed to celebrate Barbro--
--that it was going to be a celebration to this Barbro. A greeting...
Yes, but this was--this was--the queen celebrating the queen. It's so narcissistic and wonderful and...
- Are you saying--are you saying Babben's a narcissist? - No, I could never say that.
So we've seen that, then. A greeting.
So then we've got Santa Claus and Babben Larsson. Our total so far.
- Babben celebrates Babben. - It's so powerful!
Let's move on with this. And it's now Morgan's turn to celebrate Babben using a celeb.
Watch and learn.
- Hi, Babben! - This is a celebratory poem...
...from Morgan and me, Maria Montazami.
- Barbro Karin Viola Babben Larsson. - A true friend lies herein.
Without you, I'd just eat tin.
So here's my honest confession: 10 times 6 makes 20 threes.
We love you, Babben. So here's a...squeeze.
From us on video. Best regards, Morgan and the gang.
That was all of it!
- Wow, how much time have you had? - I love Babben!
I put my soul into it! If it's a celebratory thing, then you have a celebration!
- It was multiple people, though. - ONE person was supposed to...
- It was one, yeah! One. But they were one, one, one, one, one. - Right, that was a fantastic celebration. Thank you, Morgan.
I'm--I'm really impressed. But we've got two celebrations left, right?
We'll move on and take a look at Johanna when she celebrates Babben using a celeb.
Babben, my king. The king over the king.
Our strongest shining star on the night sky that leads me through tough times.
My nicest, most dazzling, shining.
We need more Babben in our lives, in every nook and cranny.
- Who was that? - It was Zara Larsson.
Why was...wasn't she on video?
Because I've fought for weeks to get a hold of Zara Larsson, let me tell you.
Then I send "this is what's gonna happen, and it's very important this turns out good".
And then she sends an audio message--
--because she thought this was some sort of podcast.
- Now that's offensive, Babben. - Didn't really know.
- Didn't really know, but--she's really famous, huh. - This, being a podcast?
But we don't really have that ultimate photographic evidence that she's talking, here.
- But wh-- - It could be anyone.
You're just saying that because--Morgan heard it! You're just saying that because she's the "it" girl.
I heard that it was Zara Larsson, but I think you've probably been sitting on Youtube,
--and cut together a bunch of different interviews, and then...
- Didn't it sound a bit...? - No, wait, sorry--should I get my phone?
I'm sorry, but she's like--she's in the US right now.
Johanna, we're not questioning how famous she is, we're questioning the evidence that it's her.
What we hear is a young person who can barely read off a page.
Stupendous, really.
- Let's say this--it could very well have been Zara Larsson. - We can say that.
We do have one celebration left, right?
We really do. Let's take a look at Arantxa when she celebrates Babben using a celeb.
Exactly, and Babben, I'm thinking you've got to close or cover your eyes--
--and you'll get a bit of a surprise when you open your large, beautiful, nice, sparkling eyes.
Now, then...Babben, you can look now.
♫ I used to think maybe you loved me ♫ Now, baby, I'm sure
♫ And I just can't wait 'til the day ♫ that you knock on my door
♫ And every time I go for the mailbox ♫ gotta hold myself down
♫ I just can't wait 'til the day ♫ that you come around
♫ Oh yeah ♫ I'm walking on sunshine, oh
♫ And don't I feel good
♫ I used to think maybe you loved me ♫ Now I know that it's true
♫ And I just can't spend my life ♫ sittin' just waiting for you
♫ No, no, no ♫ I'm walking on sunshine, oh
♫ And don't I feel good
♫ Don't I feel good
♫ And don't I feel good
And a round of applause for Johanna's answering machine message, too.
I called a nice, good friend of mine who wanted to sing a little ditty, plus your favorite song.
Yeah, it was. You'd sussed that out, and that's right.
- I could do that, too. - Yeah. But you chose to rent a Santa from New Zealand.
The nicest thing you can give yourself is a large hug. Remember that when you assign the points.
There was one celebration that was a greeting, which was Olof's--
--so you land on a solid 1.
If you leave it to Babben, I'm giving you one narcissistic point.
I think...the Santa lands on 2 points, since he was a bit ruder in his celebration.
- Filthy, almost. - There was a bit of a half-roast, and some flirting under the beard there.
3 points go to Arantxa, since you brought over Linnea and you sang yourself--
--but it's still a bit bordering on being a celebration.
Then I think that your...read-verbatim, but still a celebration from Zara gets 4 points.
- Excuse-- - And then Morgan's collage...stop it, now.
There's a justice in this. You get 5 points for your fantastic collage--
--but there's a special point here for most famous person, and that goes to Johanna.
Thank you greatly for these points, Babben. So then, we have...
Keyyo's still in the lead with 18 points, but in second place, Arantxa and Johanna, 16 points each--
--and then we've got Morgan, 13, and Olof slips down to 12 points. That's how it looks.
I'm still a bit touched by the celebratory choirs. What's up next?
I've picked out a really heavy test, just for you. Here it comes.
Hi, hi!
When do you stop waving?
"Throw something heavy as far as you can. Highest score wins."
The heaviest thing I know, or...?
"Your points equal the amount of kilos times the amount of thrown meters."
- "Bonus points for most impressive throw." - "You have 10 minutes. Your time starts now."
Right! So, the goal here was to throw something as heavy as possible as far as possible.
There's also a bonus point to pick up for the most impressive throw.
I think we'll throw ourselves into it. Which one should we start with?
Why don't we heave-ho up everyone except Johanna.
Ooh!
Something as heavy as possible that you think you can throw as far as possible.
Yeah, but it doesn't say I have to throw it right here. C'mon. This'll be fun.
- Could you jump from here? - That'll be a no.
This is to brace myself, so that I can angle my toes.
- That's right... - Four minutes to go.
Ah, that was good, too.
- Ah, that feels good. You're charging up. - Oh wow...
What the hell!? This thing's slippery!
- So this looks like it'll be a throw. - 'Cause--this wasn't a throw, I just realized.
No, that's true. I had a feeling it wasn't, too.
- I'll throw it in the water. - Why?
It'll get some height and go down.
- Will you get it back? - No.
Last throw. And it does have to go further than the flag to count.
No! It has to? That's not the longest point?
I don't have the energy to explain.
- Third season. - This is Sparta!
Bäst i test.
Five, four, three, two, one...
I'm exhausted.
- That's further, for example. - Dammit, you've always gotta brag. I'm good at other stuff.
- Good job. - Thanks.
- Good job. - Good job. Shame about the shirt.
No...
Now this is action! I was a bit worried for your health, David, when the bowling balls whizzed around your head.
And you--were you more thinking far or heavy?
Uh, I don't know if--how much I had the time to think about that.
- I've gotta ask--I don't get what you did. - Threw far and heavy.
It was pretty light and pretty short, I think, comparing with the others.
Yeah, but I just--I don't get the idea.
We've got Arantxa here, who went all in with the sledgehammer. And that was a heavy one!
It was--I mean--I got sore afterwards, and almost popped my arm out of joint. That's how heavy it was.
Should we present the results so far?
Ah, so, well...it's pretty advanced math, actually, this stuff with weight and length and such...
Fair amount of numbers, so we'll save that until after we've seen Johanna. Here she comes.
Now then!
- Yep. - I mean, I...I bench 110 kilos.
- This... - Nice and soft.
This is no problem, David.
- Still, there's also a hole over there. - I'm going to...David, trust me.
Okay, are you ready?
- Do you--do you want me to go like this? - No, just stand the way you're standing.
- Okay, are you ready? You can't sit down like that! - Just standing, right.
There. Okay?
One, two, three!
I mean, that was kind of because you, you...
- You sort of didn't want to. - "Didn't want"--and you go and blame him!
But you, David, you did have your head out far...
So I think Babben gets to decide this.
Good job.
But David, you really didn't try too hard.
I was like "You're jumping with me in this." And you went like this.
If you'd really gone in for that...shit, we could've made history.
- Keyyo, got any questions on this? - No, I just didn't know it was possible to get a stroke in the eye.
- Among the craziest things I've seen. - Right. You must've compiled all the weights and lengths and such by now?
Mhm, now we can sum this up. I've been sitting with pads and pens and worked out the scores--
--that the panel threw together, and rounded them up to whole numbers.
So it is, via this formula that has to do with the weight and the length, and multiplying all this and...
- So this isn't points you get, but just so you get how the scores are divided-- - One of the editorial staff worked it out for you, didn't they.
I've gotten help, yes. Keyyo, 24 points. Morgan, 49 points.
Arantxa, one cut above, 50 points.
Johanna, 59 points. Not too dumb there, throwing me--
--even if it felt very, very dumb at the time. A very short throw, but heavy.
But Olof, 60 points!
But there was also a bonus point to be awarded for the most impressive throw.
Mhm. We do have someone here who threw both heavy and enjoyable, and with their own back on the line.
So, Johanna. Even if it didn't turn out too far, that's definitely a bonus point.
Things have certainly happened, you see here.
Morgan, 15 points. You're last.
And Olof, 17 points in fourth place.
On a shared second place: Arantxa and Keyyo.
Johanna's pulling ahead. She's got 24 points and is in the lead!
- Nice! - How fun.
Exciting! But everything you've earned can be overturned, because now it's time for the finale.
So, I'd like to ask Morgan to read the instructions for the finale.
Let's see here, my friends! "Don't get fruit on the pizza."
"When it's your turn, throw a fruit at the target, but as far from the pizza as possible."
"The one who's closest to the pizza after every round is eliminated."
"If you miss the target, you're eliminated. If you run out of fruit, you're eliminated."
- "The test starts on David's signal." - So, the goal is...
...throwing fruit at the target, but not getting close to the pizza. Getting as far from the pizza as possible.
But! We don't have any fruit to throw. That's when you have to remember, what actually was--
--in tonight's prize, the fruit basket, that you can win?
The very nice fruit basket that I put together for you. Write down fruits on the board.
The fruits you'll be competing with are the fruits you get right, from the basket's contents.
Kristina seems to have zero so far.
Five, four, three, two, one, zero.
Pens in the air, and I'll go get fruit from your shopping lists I've received here.
Let's see how you fared, then.
Olof, you've managed to get--
--one banana, one pineapple and one citrus fruit-- could be a clementine, a satsuma or so on.
Wow, Arantxa, congratulations: Avocado, kiwi, banana, pear, pineapple. One, two, three, four, five.
- Keyyo: Pear, kiwi, canary melon, banana. One, two, three, four-- - Turkish peach?
Turkish peach...was neither said nor in the basket. So that'd be a tough one.
Morgan: Pineapple, canary melon, banana, kiwi. One, two, three, four fruits you've got there.
And here we almost have to have the winner, huh?
We're talking avocado, pineapple, pear, canary melon, clementine and banana.
One, two, three, four, five, six fruits. So you're going to hold onto this all the way.
The rules are simple: You're going to step up one at a time.
You're supposed to throw fruits so it gets on the target, but not on the pizza.
The person closest to the pizza in every round will be eliminated.
Olof picks banana as his fruit. He's stepping up and throwing.
You have to get on the target, but not on or closest to the pizza.
Olof's on target.
Arantxa, pick a fruit and step up.
What will Arantxa counter with? Also banana. Bananas do have a very good stoppability.
Arantxa is also on the board, but she's also currently closest to the pizza.
If it ends here, Arantxa'll be the one eliminated. Olof's very good, very good.
On the target, yet far from the pizza. Kristina also selects banana! Interesting.
- I didn't have a whole lot to choose from. - No. Banana it is.
She steps up and aims.
Keyyo lands on the board, but very, very dangerously close to the pizza.
This can honestly only be surpassed by landing on the pizza. Let's see how Morgan fares; he also selects the banana.
- Just think, wouldn't banana on pizza be tasty. - I love it!
Morgan aims. Morgan throws.
- No! I don't know... - Morgan is, currently, outside the target.
- You're kidding? - You'll have to sit down, then.
Johanna's turn, then. She also selects the banana. Probably doesn't dare take anything else, in this situation.
And we're going to see, here. If you land further away than Keyyo, Keyyo's the one who sits down and we'll move on to the next round.
- Quick question--the whole fruit doesn't have to be on the target? - No, as you can see.
- No... - Could it be the closest in, furthest out...?
Johanna, you can sit down on...
- Well, you see you can. - Johanna, go sit down.
- So we've got two eliminated, Johanna and Morgan. - But I was the closest one, outside...
One's closest to the pizza but on the target, namely Keyyo.
Which means that you, too, sit down.
We'll move on to round 2.
- I've got two fruits left. - Olof's selected a slightly smaller citrus fruit.
- No! - That was his last fruit.
Olof's out of fruit which means he's out, and Arantxa wins: 5 points!
Now this is exciting. What does this tutti-frutti rain entail for the total rankings?
Right, let's see, and...yes, "exciting" is just the half of it.
So, it's like this. Morgan got one point and winds up with a total of 16 points.
Then we've got Olof.
You got a whole 4 points, and wind up with 21 points.
Then we've got Keyyo. Got 1 point, wind up with 23 points.
Johanna got 1 point only, and got 25 points.
Arantxa got 5 points and winds up with 27 points! What's going on?! Arantxa wins!
Incredible! No one could've seen that coming, huh?
Damn, that's fun! And a fruit basket! It's snack time, for sure.
So what've we learnt today? Well, we've learnt that frozen melon is very cold--
--that it's often faster if someone else inflates your balloon--
--and that one small step at a time can carry you any distance. See you! Goodbye.
