Everyone attempts to follow Jaakko’s instructions

The game passes without much incident, beyond the contestants struggling to keep up with the instructions (which is to be expected).

Eero, Joonas, and Pirjo all correctly have empty left hands at the end of the task, while Johanna has the ping pong ball, and Pamela has the keys.

Eero and Joonas correctly have the ping pong ball in their right hands, while Pamela, Pirjo, and Johanna have nothing.

No-one has correctly placed the rubber duck, which should be in their left breast pocket. The contestants do not reveal the contents of their left breast pockets, implying that everyone had left it empty.

Eero and Joonas correctly end up with the onion in their right breast pockets. Pirjo has the rubber duck in that pocket instead, while neither Johanna nor Pamela share the contents of that pocket.

Eero and Joonas correctly end up with the key in their left side pockets. Pamela, Pirjo, and Johanna do not reveal the contents of their own pockets. Eero shakes the keys to taunt Pamela, who tells him to stop immediately.

Eero and Pirjo correctly end up with the pencil in their right side pockets. Pamela’s pencil ends up in her right breast pocket and, in a desperate bid for points (as she has not correctly placed a single item over the course of the task), she insists that gravity must have snuck in and moved the pencil.

As Eero was clearly the most successful at following the instructions, Jaakko awards him first place, while the mostly-successful Joonas earns second place. As Pirjo had managed to get at least two items correct, he awards her fourth place, while he awards Johanna last place. He initially awards Pamela no points, as she did not end up with any items correctly placed (implying that Johanna got at least one item correct, which was not shown in the edit), but he quickly takes pity on her and awards her a participation point.
