Pirjo’s cock-eyed beach ball

Pirjo chooses the beach ball. She initially draws two large black eyes onto it, but then glues on two googly eyes as well. One of the eyes mostly stays in place, but the glue does not hold on the other, causing a droopy-eyed effect on the beach ball’s face. Pirjo tapes some long pieces of blue tinsel just under the eyes, splitting it around the mouth area. She also adds a small beard below, made out of cotton wool. The beach ball’s hair is made out of a thatch of cotton wool, as well as a piece of paper taped to the top. Jaakko takes a closer look at the beach ball, and realises that the tinsel is meant to represent a moustache, connecting with the beard. He then correctly guesses that the ball is meant to be Kalle. Pirjo is awarded second place, and is given a special acknowledgment by Jaakko for attempting to turn it into someone other than Eija or Fathi.
