Anders makes a tear-inducing movie

Here's a description of the contestant's attempt. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to illustrate it.

After debating whether he should kidnap Lasse’s children, Anders instead decides to make Lasse cry by making him think of his childhood (suggesting that Lasse should cry because he is happy, not because he is sad). Initially, Anders' film seems to reflect that decision, as it’s slow-motion footage of fluffy puppies playing outside. Anders then appears on screen and delivers an ultimatum: if Lasse does not cry and award five points to Anders by dawn, all of the puppies will be killed. In the studio, Lasse does tear up a bit, and reveals that he once had a very sick dog that needed to be put down, and that Lasse had held it while it died, and that Anders' film did in fact strike a sorrowful chord within Lasse. Anders earns second place (and we never see those poor puppies again).
