Pirjo uses her face

Pirjo sources her items from the shed and the kitchen, though not much footage is shown of this process. Her chosen objects are: some sort of wooden stand, a mallet, an oven mitt, a bowling pin, a large rock, and a bottle of what appears to be some sort of cooking oil. Disheartened by the fact that all of her chosen items – except for the rock – float, Pirjo carefully reaches in to try to rearrange them within the cube, to keep them submerged. Seemingly realising that there is nothing in the task forbidding her from holding the items down herself, Pirjo holds them under the water, and then also sticks some of her face in the water, to raise the level just a little bit higher. This results in the water coming quite close to the brim of the large cube. In the studio, Pirjo argues the same logic as Fathi: that the task only limited the amount of ‘items’ that could be in the large cube, and that a human being is not an object, but a living being. Pirjo manages to raise the water to the brim “with six items and 1/10 of Pirjo”, and wins the task.
