Everyone tries to avoid saying Lasse’s favourite thing

The category in the first round is vegetables. Puk says “cucumber”, and then Mathias says “broccoli”. Unfortunately, ‘broccoli’ is what’s written on Lasse’s card as his favourite thing (despite the fact that Lasse had said in a prior episode that his favourite vegetable was rhubarb), so Mathias is eliminated, earning last place. Carsten jokes that Mathias should remain in the game, as Lasse had not informed the contestants what his favourite vegetable was before the game started – pretending to not understand the whole conceit of the game.

In the second round, the category is animals larger than a small chair. Natasha says “manatee”. Carsten says “cheetah”. Tobias says “hippo”. Puk says “boar”. Natasha says “horse”. Carsten says “hyena”. Tobias says “anteater”. Puk says “wolf”. Natasha says “goat”. Carsten then says “boar”, which had already been named by Puk. Carsten is therefore eliminated, earning fourth place, and Lasse’s favourite animal that is larger than a small chair is not revealed.

The category in the third round is body parts. Tobias says “knee” and, unfortunately, this is Lasse’s favourite body part, so Tobias is eliminated, earning third place.

The fourth and final category is names starting with ‘G’. Puk says “Gudmund”. Natasha says “Gitta”. Puk says “Ginga”. Natasha says “Gustav”. Lasse seems to trick Puk into eliminating herself at this point, as he rhetorically asks “Gustav?” in response to Natasha, and Puk replies “No, Ginga.” Lasse then hits his gong, stating that “the only thing more cruel than naming your child Ginga is naming them Ginga twice”, implying that Puk has been eliminated for repeating a name. Puk therefore earns second place, and Natasha wins the task. Whatever is written on Lasse’s card as his favourite name is not revealed.
