Eija uses children’s logic

Eija inspects the camera, to see how much of the course can be seen through the lens. She spends the majority of her time talking to Pilvi, trying to figure out how she could possibly not be seen by the camera (“A person can’t just make themselves not exist”). When her time begins, Eija effectively plays a game of ‘Red Light, Green Light’, simply running and stopping every two seconds, completely out in the open, and in full view of the camera. In the studio, Eija (probably jokingly) states that her logic was that if she closes her eyes and is unable to see anything, then nothing can see her. In the studio, Pilvi presents a composite image of all of the photos taken during Eija’s attempt, showing all of the points at which she was fully visible to the camera. Jaakko presents his own copy of the picture, calling it “inspiring”. Eija earns last place, plus two bonus points from Jaakko for entertainment value.
