Olli?
"It goes in the butt"
Hello and welcome to Kongen Befaler.
All of you watching, you know who you are.
And welcome to the man who still might have a way to go
before he knows who he is, Olli Wermskog!
Hello.
Thank you.
Yes, I'm still searching.
One day I will find out.
On to something no-one has any doubts about what it is:
A bust...
in gold of me!
The group that thinks about this golden head
and has planned where it will be placed,
although it is too early to say who will get it.
Is it... Stian Blipp?
Is it Tuva Billing?
Isn't it Tete Lidbom?
Is it Christian Skolmen?
And there is Marte Stokstad!
Yes yes yes.
Yes. We have come to the prize task.
The participants have been told to
bring something that can change shape.
Whoever you feel does the best, Atle,
walks away with the first 5 points of the day.
Who do we start with?
We start with the shapeshifter Tete.
Oh, me? - Yes.
I think this was a difficult task,
but then I thought back on my previous teachers and bosses,
who said things like "When it's hard, start small and be personal."
So that's what I've gone for.
I just have to be very…
...very careful. Here, yes.
Here you have...
...some of my hair.
And this hair... - From where?
From my head. - Very audience-friendly contribution.
This is the small start.
But on the screen you will see an endlessly changing hair.
Yes, yes. - That's bushy!
There's more.
And there's more.
Yes. - The same hair.
Exactly the same hair.
The same guy.
It has changed a lot. - There!
That's not the same hair, is it? - Exactly the same hair.
It has changed shape quite a bit. - Great variety here.
Have you always been exploring and never been satisfied,
or have you just taken advantage of the many options?
I, for example, don't have that many options anymore.
Exactly, that's what I'm afraid of.
I'm trying to go through all the options before I get to your stage.
That's good to hear. Well planned.
Then it's Stian.
I...
I have brought...
Pikachu!
Yes, the Electric Pokemon.
I haven't missed him.
As we all know, all it takes is a thunderstone to become...
Raichu! That's right.
Known to most from episode 14, where Ash battles Lieutenant Surge,
and Nurse Joy offers Ash a thunderstone, and he says:
"No, I don't want Pikachu to evolve."
Instead, he teaches him agility and quick attack,
which are attacks only Pikachu can learn.
He beats lieutenant Surge- Lovely. Lovely!
Yes.
I think that was good.
That was...
That was it.
I only know the look and the name.
I had no idea what he could do. So I learned something new.
So you don't know the Electric Showdown in Vermilion City?
No. My kids were too old when this became popular.
And I'm happy about that. Very happy about that.
I can interject that I would have given him 5 points.
You would have given him 5 points?
Yes, already before I've seen anything else.
You know what? I just don't see myself doing that.
That's why I thought I'd... Because... - Absolutely.
You need to get the reference. - Yes, you do.
And you need to know your audience too.
Here we are victims of someone who does not.
Can we perhaps meet in the middle?
You might be saved by other people being really bad.
That wouldn't be the first time.
It wouldn't be the first time. Christian?
I'm glad you brought up that reference thing.
Because I have something that's... right up your alley.
I live an exciting life. - You do?
I am quite fond of baking. - I see.
So I have brought this. It's a bun dough.
A bun dough, yes.
It didn't look like this three or four hours ago.
Then it looked like that.
Yes. - Now it's become bigger.
Here you also see the matchbox. - So it has changed?
Very much. It has become much larger. - Yes, it has.
And not only that, but it will also change
into buns and rolls, and cooked in the oven.
And if you eat a lot of it, your body changes too.
A known case.
There's a little hair there.
What? Oh yes, there's a little hair there.
Is it supposed to be there? - It's supposed to be there.
Let Marte taste the bun dough. It's nice with some bun dough.
I don't think so. - Take a bite, Marte.
Can't Stian do it?
Stian can take a bite.
Now nobody wants to taste the dough.
It's not "troll dough", is it? [play dough made with salt and flour]
You have yeasted it to death. - It's definitely not a bun.
It isn't?
There is a lot of yeast, but at least it has changed.
Too much yeast and too little sugar?
There's no sugar in it.
No sugar, just a lot of yeast.
That's... great, that.
I'll just say what I say when I'm not impressed:
The task is solved. - Thank you very much.
Don't sit there and grin, Stian.
He hasn't saved you. - I'm just enjoying myself.
You understood more of this than that. - Yes, I did.
This hit you harder. - Absolutely. I completely agree.
In here.
Right into the heart.
Tuva, now it's your turn.
I am very happy with this one.
That's a good thing to say. - I think you will love this, Atle.
I've been in my parents' garage,
or rather my dad's garage.
And I found a thing that can be changed
into so many different things.
Here we have a saw.
It's a slightly more advanced version of a pocket knife.
A file, and lots of other stuff.
It can also turn into a hammer.
Oi oi.
I like that sort of thing.
Yes, this is the type of gadget that men over 50 like.
Absolutely. - Do you know what that is?
That's something you can...
Have you tried the hammer?
Uhhh... no.
No.
But it works. It's...
Yes, yes!
It's good that it works. - That's how you test hammers.
It probably works. - Solid and good to hold.
Wonderful. The task is solved,
as I say when I'm not very impressed.
All of Norway's Marte Stokstad, as you call yourself.
What have you brought?
Just like Tuva, I have brought something that
I think you will appreciate. - That's a very clever approach.
I did that too. - Yes, you did. Everyone did.
I should've thought a bit more about you.
"Bring something that changes shape."
Ladies and gentlemen...
Liquor. - Liquor, yes.
Since it has a tendency to change your shape [condition].
I have a very good experience with liquor.
It has that tendency, yes.
You think it will get better, but it always gets worse.
Yes, it does. So this is more in the figurative sense.
Yes, your shape [condition] is one way,
but then you drink this, and it changes.
Are you going to try one?
No no. I want to stay in this shape.
That's what I prefer. - Totally agree.
Yes, well...
Now we're there. - Yes.
It's the moment of truth. - You have to distribute the points.
It's not super easy either. It's...
That dough could have made some nice slippers.
No, I don't think this is very easy.
It's the most difficult to find a first place.
It is? - But also the last place.
I see. - You were all just average.
Is it that bad?
No, not that bad, but it's not that exciting either.
Maybe you should've created some different tasks?
So it's human error?
That was very bold of you.
1 point for Marte. - No! No.
That's how it should be! - No.
2 points for Pikachu. You were lucky with that.
No!
The hammer gets 3 points.
And the two left are in luck,
just because I didn't bother to include you yet,
and now I see what I'm left with.
Fine, you'll get 5 points for that hair!
Yes! - 4 points for the bun dough.
Yes.
This is a programme where the participants
keep looking for loopholes and shortcuts
when they're solving the tasks.
But now I want a task where the simple way could backfire.
So the cumbersome way pays off? - Exactly!
Hey. - Hey.
This is cosy.
Where? - Here.
It's nice here. - Yes, thank you.
"Fill the coffee cup with coffee,"
"but do it in a cumbersome way."
"The most cumbersome way to fill the coffee in the cup, wins."
"You have one thousand..."
"...three hundred and..."
"...eighty point zero seconds."
I can't be bothered with that.
I'm not going to bother with that. Calculating how much time that is.
"You have 1,380.0 seconds."
How much is that? - Yes, how much is that?
I'm guessing about 10 minutes.
About 10 minutes? - Yes.
I know it isn't, but I can't be bothered to do the maths.
Yes...
Yes. How hard is it to calculate?
1 minute is 60 seconds, 10 minutes is 600 seconds...
How difficult is it?
Very difficult. - 1,200 seconds is 20 minutes.
25 minutes? - Anyone want to answer?
Yes, Olli? - 23 minutes.
If I had known that I wouldn't be sitting here.
But it should be possible to serve coffee into a cup
in a cumbersome way if you have 23 minutes to prepare.
Yes, we can take a look at Tuva, Christian, Marte and Tete's solutions.
Yes, it's hot. - Huh? Is there coffee in it?
Oh right, I have to fill the cup, of course.
"Fill the coffee cup."
It has to be full.
Immediate thoughts?
Cumbersome is tiring and clumsy,
like standing upside-down, and pouring upwards.
That's damn cumbersome.
Okay. - Hi there.
Hello.
I would say that this is a very cumbersome way to fill a coffee cup.
Standing up there and pouring is not cumbersome, just clumsy.
Wow!
Like that.
It's pouring!
No!
I've never seen a dumber way to get coffee into a coffee cup.
I'm making a coffee slide.
It's cumbersome, but also very fun.
You can line up for an orchestra seat.
I'll blow it from the coffee pot with a 10 metre long hose.
But my work here is done.
There is coffee in a cup.
There.
Then I'll stop the time now. I'm happy with that.
Oh.
No.
This is a very cumbersome way to get a cup of coffee.
There.
"Fill the cup with coffee"?
Yes? - Yes.
Would you say it's been filled?
It's... Well, it's a...
It's more half-full than half-empty.
Right.
See ya.
Yes, yes, yes.
There was a bit of everything.
Bit of everything. Atle?
How do you assess the standings so far?
It's hard to say.
I don't think I'll make a decision on that until I've see the last one.
Tete, is there something you want to say?
Can I just say...
Do you want to defend yourself already?
No, this isn't about me.
I just want to say that what Christian delivered...
If you do that in a café in Berlin or New York,
then people would have paid insane amounts for a cup of coffee.
It's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. I loved it.
You have a touching care for Christian.
But he doesn't need it, because I think he's in the lead with that.
Yes. - Yes, I mean it.
But you don't want to judge anything until you've seen Stian?
I would like to see Stian first.
Then we'll take a look at Stian, who'll be right there with your coffee.
Okay.
It's important that this is attached properly,
when you're going to push and pull.
I have to take off my sweater.
It that okay?
Good thing I wore my Eminem costume today.
Ouch! Damn...
Should have had a funnel, aha.
Are things happening down there?
Every drop counts. Come on.
Yes baby!
No, stop!
Cumbersome!
No...
What did you say?
A small, painful piece all alone over there?
Oh well.
Ouch!
Ah.
Not only was it cumbersome, but the cup is also completely full.
There. Completely full.
It's obviously the longest distance,
from the balcony, through a shopping cart.
There was a swing in the tree, a toboggan, pirouettes,
and a LEGO path on the way to the table.
It's obviously the most strenuous and cumbersome.
What do you say, Stian? - That was nice.
Nice to see there was something there.
Yes.
But...
No. No...
Just one small thing.
Don't shoot the pianist. Come on.
There was something about the filling
that was supposed to be very cumbersome.
The filling in itself.
Not the transport of the coffee to the filling tub,
or whatever you call it...
But the filling began on the balcony.
So you say.
Let's take a look at the filling itself.
Coffee from the tub into the cup.
That's the filling moment. - No.
You transported the coffee
from the plantation down to the tub.
That is correct.
It was all a dance.
It was very cumbersome.
Very cumbersome! - Very.
Except for the filling part.
I agree.
The filling was quite ordinary. What do you guys think?
I completely agree.
I didn't want to say it, since I really care about Stian.
I felt sorry for him, since the build-up was so nice,
but it wasn't cumbersome at all.
I would have gone to Berlin to see the journey,
but not the filling itself.
Tuva, what do you think?
I feel a little bad for him, since he worked so hard.
But I agree.
The filling wasn't... - Give him 1 point.
"At least give him 1 point."
I've already called a taxi,
which is ready for me if I get less than 5 points here.
But I assume Stian didn't win, then?
Based on what you are now saying.
That's absolutely insane.
I haven't made up my mind yet.
I haven't formed a completely clear opinion about Stian yet.
Yes, I have.
I have made up my mind about Stian and the rest.
I'll start with Tuva and Tete. You did not complete the task.
You didn't fill the cup. Disqualified.
Disqualified, yes.
Zero points. Disqualified. - Disqualified, yes.
They didn't solve the task, so they're disqualified. That's how it is.
So you're in third place, Stian.
You get 3 points, but no more. - Shocking.
Shocking!
You were more afraid of one or zero.
I was afraid of 7 points.
Here you could blow up the scale.
The winner is the one who did it cumbersomely,
but also elegantly, while dangling.
Filling it with his foot.
Christian Skolmen, 5 points.
Zero points for Tuva and Tete.
Stian gets three, Marte four and Christian five.
In total today the standings are...
Oi oi! - Yes.
Skolmen is offensive. - What's happening to Skolmen?
What's happening to Skolmen?
What is it time for now?
It's time for some adverts. See you soon.
Sometimes it's a bit too conformist and safe in the house.
I want to see more...
...illegal activity among the participants.
So you want to see them, for example,
handle illegal substances where they
risk prosecution if caught?
Yes, I would like that very much. - Let's take a look.
Oi.
Hmm... Mm!
"Lemons are illegal."
"Make these illegal lemons disappear without a trace."
"You must at all times stay in the lab,"
"inside the marked square you're standing in."
Yes, I'm standing in it. I didn't see that.
"In 300 seconds, Olli will come to perform a lemon check."
"Olli can't touch you,"
"but you must otherwise obey his orders."
"Most missing lemons wins."
"Your time starts now."
Right. It starts now.
Is it four minutes?
Sixty times four. No...
Let's forget about that.
Sixty times four.
Sicty times four.
What were you going to do with those numbers?
I don't know.
Do you remember what you tried to calculate?
No, I have forgotten the whole task.
It wasn't a maths task.
No, I don't know what I was doing.
"Oh, if only I knew sixty times four."
Then everything would work out.
I suggest less calculating and more lemon hiding.
Yes.
Where do we start, Olli?
With a lemonade consisting of five acidic ingredients.
Let's watch Tuva, Marte, Christian, Tete, and the last one,
who's good at pouring coffee.
Okay. I have to do this thoroughly.
I guess... Oh.
One lemon can go down. A little.
Interesting.
Yes, because... That's good.
Oi oi oi.
The only other person I can imagine eating it is Stian Blipp.
I can't do it.
It's impossible to eat the whole thing.
This goes under...
Yes, it goes under the arms.
I have to start.
It's so obvious to put it there.
He won't notice this.
The good thing is that I'm a cool guy,
so I have cool clothes.
Cool clothes like big pants.
Look.
I'll also put the last one in here.
Like that.
I think I'll throw them away immediately,
before the time runs out.
Perfect. That was a bad throw.
I can't move.
Lemons can disappear by eating them.
I could put them in the butt.
One... goes in the butt.
It goes in the butt. Sorry.
It goes there.
Why didn't I do that?
I could just throw them.
Now it's time for a lemon check.
Yes.
I can see...
It doesn't get much clearer than that.
Those are three squeezed lemons. - Not so well hidden.
You mashed them here,
then you stood on the table and pushed them in there,
came back down and thought:
"I'll stand like this, so he'll think I have them on my body."
That might be.
That is...
Have you never seen a trønder [someone from Trøndelag] before?
What's with the intense staring?
I'm fascinated. - That's nice.
Oh, that was close.
I see a lemon over there. - No...
I'll go get it.
There's another one! - Oh! You're good.
One, two, three. - Wow.
I'll just look behind here.
No. Come back.
One, two, a bit, and that one.
Something has disappeared.
Oi. And the other one.
That's not possible.
I can't put both legs on the table at the same time.
Can you... dab?
Let it go.
Oi. Woops! - Okay.
Look at that.
Look here. Have you put one in the butt?
There is no lemon in my butt.
Take a little jump up here, then.
No problem. - No, do it then.
Oh, it was only half.
So you chose to cut it in half.
I can't find those lemons.
Right. Neither can I.
Congratulations.
Congratulations? So I can just go? - Yes.
Goodbye, Olli. Have a good one.
Bye.
Yes.
Tete, you first. What was the most satisfying?
That you solved the task, or that Olli failed his task?
It was probably the last one.
But there was something about finally being able to
take advantage of being a cool guy in big pants.
It wasn't that well hidden.
No, just the right amount.
The right amount of hidden, yes.
Stian, I appreciate the effort. - Thank you.
My ass burned for eight hours afterwards.
For real, it stung intensely.
Here you went all in. It was exemplary. Really.
Christian has a lot to learn here.
Yes.
What do you think of your "hiding"?
Had I hit where I intended to...
So you're defending your own approach?
What were you trying to hit?
I tried to get it out of...
I threw right into a spotlight.
Yes, all three of them.
Had I hit this much further to the right, I might have gotten…
So it was just a little technicality that ruined it for you.
Yes.
Right.
We have seen a lot of lemons.
How many lemons disappeared without a trace?
I'll tell you.
Tuva and Christian made zero lemons disappear.
You managed to get some juice on your clothes, but I saw that.
Marte, you are right in front with half a lemon.
Yes, you didn't find it.
So you end up above those guys.
They get 2 points. You get 3 points, Marte.
Stian, one and a half lemons gone. 4 points.
And Tete, I couldn't find any. 5 points.
We need a little break.
I think we should continue on this rebellious track we are on.
How about one of the most rebellious things you can get?
Breaking a rule. - Breaking a rule.
You read me like an open book, Olli.
Hello.
Is that you, Olli?
There, yes.
I have a very good gut feeling about this task.
How will you approach the task?
By opening the envelope.
"Break a rule."
"The rule must be broken for real."
"Comma." Or full stop. It's hard to tell without my glasses.
"Clearest rule violation wins."
"You have 12 minutes. Your time starts now."
Does it have to involve the police?
Should I rob a bank?
Do that.
Yes. Now I both hope and don't hope that you went to rob a bank.
But the fact that you are sitting here
may indicate that you moderated yourself a bit eventually.
In my defence... I remember this very well.
This was the last task that day.
My brain was so tired.
"Then I just have to rob a bank."
But I didn't.
That was the only rule violation you could think of?
Right then and there, it was.
My brain was very tired.
I am very excited about which rule violations we will witness.
Then we can start with Marte, Tuva and Christian.
"Clearest rule violation." "Break a rule."
I'm not that concerned with rules.
Are you a diligent rule-follower? - Yes, I probably am.
"The rule must be broken for real", yes.
"You have 12 minutes."
Then it's tempting to hold on for 13 minutes.
Can I google "rule"?
I know what a rule is, but I just thought...
When we have passed 12...
...you can... fasten your seat belt.
Then it'll be rock and roll.
Who is the biggest rule breaker? - It has to be Tuva.
Cheers.
I'm drinking during working hours.
I have given you a glass of wine.
A colleague.
I'm advertising for [bleeped brand] to the Norwegian people.
[alcohol advertising is illegal in Norway]
I'm not allowed to be on TikTok, as an employee of NRK. [Norwegian public broadcaster]
So if I download TikTok, I'm breaking a rule.
A rule from NRK.
You have 10 seconds left.
Five, four, three, two, one.
The task is over.
Oh. - You deserved it.
I think it provoked a bit.
"Swipe up. Start watching."
Rule thus broken.
A clear violation of the rules.
Is the task finished? - The task is finished.
Now I wonder if I'm going to get in trouble.
I just have to...
"Delete app."
"Do you want to delete TikTok?"
Yes, NRK. I do.
Bye.
Is this something I should report? That I did this?
What a crazy bunch.
You're fucking living on the edge.
Taking some chances.
Yes, how did it go, Marte? - It was a real violation of the rules.
I could see that you were terrified.
Have you told NRK? - No.
You haven't?
That's a bit... - But I did delete it.
You deleted it, but it will be broadcast on TV.
We have proof.
It could be a film trick.
I don't think that's believable.
But it was a violation of the rules. - A very clear violation of the rules.
And there was another violation of the rules too:
a woman in her 40s wearing dungarees without being a potter.
That's a violation of the rules.
It's work clothes.
So if TikTok doesn't work, you have that to fall back on.
I'm still wearing them. - She's still wearing dungarees.
Yes, I can see that. That's good.
No mud spills on it either.
Tuva, do you mean that it's not allowed to drink alcohol during working hours?
It's not allowed to drink at work, is it?
That was news to me.
I don't know, isn't it…
No comment.
Advertising for it on TV is not allowed.
No, that's not allowed.
It's not allowed. - No, it's not allowed.
It's so illegal that we had to censor everything
so the broadcaster won't get shut down.
That would've been a proper rule violation.
We would get millions in fines.
So you really broke a rule.
That's what I'm trying to get at.
It was well delivered. - We have two rule breakers left.
I would like to see them. - Let's look at Stian and Tete.
"Clearest rul-"
The law?
Breaking the law?
Shit. I want to do something really, really bad.
Olli? - Yes.
You are a patient.
I'm a doctor.
Okay?
Knock on the door. Come in.
Hi there.
Is it Doctor Lidbom? - That's right.
Please lay down.
Right. Exactly what I thought.
Olli Wermskog. - Yes?
You suffer from lupus.
Lupus?
Okay.
12 minutes. Come on.
There is no point in making it complicated.
Watch out!
Yes.
This is clear.
This is something everyone can understand.
Good old-fashioned vandalism.
The way that window smashed. Perfect.
And you didn't check if anyone was sitting inside.
Check, check, check on everything.
Wonderful rule-breaking.
Tete, what rule were you breaking?
I think it's illegal to...
Now comes a word I struggle to say:
Diagnose?
It's probably illegal, but just to be sure, Olli.
Did you believe...
...that Tete was a real doctor?
I think it's important... - No.
No. It's a clear last place for that, Tete.
You even managed to sneak underneath Christian.
That's actually well done. - Impressive.
But I had this.
Yes, the finger was rough, but you get 2 points.
Marte, you get in the middle with that one.
You're sailing the Mediterranean at the moment.
I know. Boring.
In contrast, we have one that is not.
Tuva, you had a clear rule violation.
But Stian wins, of course. - Yes!
Tete gets one, Christian gets two,
Marte gets three, Tuva four, and Stian five.
We can see it here.
In total...
Oi! Look at that.
It's close.
Stian is in the lead.
Stian is in the lead?
It can't get much closer.
It's time for the studio task. Get up.
We have come to the last task.
The participants have been given
some completely standard needle gloves that they have put on.
And they are not allowed to take them off during the task.
The task is that you have a tube each in front of you.
Your tube must be filled with balloons.
The balloons are behind you, inside the parasols.
They have helium in them.
You must each choose your own colour.
Stian? - Red.
Tuva? - Green.
Red, green... - White.
Christian? - Blue!
Marte?
Blue.
What's left? - Yellow.
Yellow. - Yellow!
This will be good. I'll keep an extra eye on you.
You must fill your tube with your own colour.
It must be filled completely.
If there are any gaps, you have to fix the problem yourself.
I have this regular broom that you can come over and borrow.
Anytime. Okay?
Atle, you get the honour of counting down.
10...
9, 8, 7, 6.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1, go!
Now we're underway.
No!
Fuck...
Oi. Okay. - Go!
What?
No! - This is impossible!
No.
Ow. - Yes yes yes.
Yes yes yes.
Ow!
There's not enough helium!
There is enough helium!
As soon as one is full, they have won.
No!
How many do I have left?
How many do you have left...
Come on.
What? - What?
We have a winner. Stian was first.
We'll count the rest down in our seats.
Yes yes yes yes yes!
That was exciting. It was quite a task.
I have some results.
We have seen it, but you might not have.
At the bottom with the white balloons, Tete.
Yes. You're in fourth place, Christian.
Marte, third place. Tuva, second place.
Stian, five points!
Good work.
Let's see how it went overall today.
In today's programme it is
Stian Blipp who's the winner!
It feels so good!
He gets all these things that can change shape.
Pikachu!
They have calculated in seconds and broken rules.
