Hadi performs an entire menagerie to Anders and Kathrine

After the first task brief is read out, the team of Anders, Hadi, and Kathrine has a debate as to whether Anders should be the one to write the animals or not.

Kathrine believes that Anders will write obscure animals, but Anders counters that such an approach could very well be beneficial for the second part of the task, since they don’t know what it is yet.

Ultimately, Anders is chosen to write the list of animals for his team.

While he does so, Hadi says that he feels safe with Anders writing animals, while Kathrine just worries about the fact that the audience is laughing at Anders’ list.

Anders lists the following animals: ‘gris’ (pig), ‘ko’ (cow), ‘and’ (duck), ‘hest’ (horse), ‘høne’ (hen), ‘får’ (sheep), ‘hund’ (dog), ‘kat’ (cat), ‘due’ (dove/pigeon), and ‘laks’ (salmon).

After the second part of the task is revealed, Hadi – as the most experienced actor – is chosen to be the mime for the team of three.

He works his way through the list from top to bottom.

For ‘ko’ (cow), he gets on all fours and mimes eating, while saying the letter ‘J’, and Anders correctly identifies his species.

For ‘gris’ (pig), Hadi walks a step on all fours before rolling around, while saying the letter ‘F’, and Anders again makes the correct guess.

For ‘får’ (sheep), Hadi jumps on all fours while saying the letter ‘E’, and Anders incorrectly guesses that it’s a ‘frø’ (frog).

Hadi then starts chewing exaggeratedly, and Kathrine correctly identifies that he’s a sheep.

For ‘hund’ (dog), Hadi gets on all fours, sticking his tongue out as if panting, while saying the letter ‘G’, and Kathrine correctly identifies his species.

For ‘kat’ (cat), he remains on all fours and starts licking the back of his hand, while saying the letter ‘J’, and both Kathrine and Anders correctly guess the right animal.

For ‘høns’ (hens), Hadi struts across the stage while flapping his elbows and saying the letter ‘G’, and Kathrine correctly identifies his species.

For ‘struds’ (ostrich), Hadi prances quickly across the entire stage, while holding his hands up in front of his body and saying the letter ‘R’, and both Anders and Kathrine correctly identify the animal.

Hadi hesitates on ‘hval’ (whale), and Kathrine tells him that he can pass if he wants.

Hadi tries anyway, performing an ocean wave movement with his arm while saying the letter ‘G’.

Kathrine incorrectly guesses that it’s a ‘slange’ (snake).

Hadi then lies on his stomach on the stage, and starts rocking, and Kathrine makes the correct guess this time (for which Anders high-fives her).

For ‘abe’ (monkey/ape), Hadi runs across the stage while scratching his armpits and saying the letter ‘Å’, and Kathrine guesses the correct animal.

Finally, for ‘myre’ (ant), Hadi gets back on all fours, makes himself as compact as possible, and then starts taking tiny steps across the stage while saying the letter ‘L’.

Kathrine incorrectly guesses that he’s a ‘myresluger’ (anteater), then Anders incorrectly guesses that he’s a ‘mus’ (mouse), before arriving at the correct answer.

Jesper and Petra both cross the stage to congratulate Hadi on his tour-de-force performance.

The team of three ultimately wins the task, and receive five points each.
