Elias draws a satirical caricature

Elias is the only contestant to draw an entire person – his person’s face covers Pilvi’s knee, while the rest of his body covers her shin.

Using a few different coloured marker pens, Elias draws an older-looking man in a dishevelled outfit with a cigarette in his mouth, who appears to be throwing up the sign of the horns, with ‘RIP’ written next to it.

Elias protests about the photo of his drawing, claiming that it was shot from a bad angle, and that there was actually a dog sitting on the man’s shoulder. Pilvi adds that it does indeed say ‘RIP’ next to the dog.

With these additional clues, Jaakko correctly guesses that Elias had drawn the (at the time of filming) President of Finland Sauli Niinistö (a picture of Niinistö and his dog, Lennu, went viral in 2017), though says it does not look much like him. Jaakko realises in retrospect that what everyone had originally thought to be fire at the man’s feet was actually a pair of roller-skates (which Niinistö enjoys as a hobby). Given Elias’ age, he is likely referencing Niinistö’s chain-smoking, roller-skating portrayal in Itsevaltiaat, a political satire cartoon.

Jaakko awards everyone a base score of 3 points. However, since he was not able to recognise Elias’ famous person, he then deducts a point from him.
