Jesper’s helpful distraction

Jesper looks around the room as he starts to open the task. He gets distracted by the (off-camera) presence of a copy of Den Danske Salmebog (the hymnal of the Church of Denmark), which he initially believes to be a copy of the Højskolesangbog, a standard songbook found in most Danish folk high schools. Jesper retrieves the book, as well as a pair of 3D glasses found near it, which he puts on “just to look cool.”

After reading the task brief, Jesper opens the book to the bookmarked page, and notices that it is page 35.

He then looks around the room and points out both the flip clock featuring the number 35, and the neon 35 sign.

For some reason, Jesper samples nine different shot glasses anyway, before counting to the 35th correct shot glass and drinking it.

Jesper then re-reads the task brief to ensure that he says the correct task-ending phrase.

He completes the task in 3 minutes, and earns second place.
