Timo focuses on the visuals

Timo listens to five seconds of the song and immediately stops playing it, insisting (in irritation) that he’s heard enough of the song already. He gathers some items from the shed and heads for the water, explaining his plan to Pilvi and the camera crew. Timo’s video takes place at the water’s edge, where he is wearing a large, beaded necklace, no shirt, and flippers. The highlight of his video is a slow-motion shot of himself in a short pile of reeds, shot at such an angle that he appears to be walking through taller reeds. He enters the water and climbs out onto the dock, where he meets Pilvi. Timo then kneels and presents Pilvi with a crown, singing the final chorus of the song. Jaakko awards everyone first place, but also awards Timo two bonus points, “for the props and other stuff”, an additional bonus point for his continued “unwavering self-confidence” (just as he did in the previous task), and yet one more bonus point for telling the story of musician Pave Maijanen, during his defence of his music video.
