Marte makes a lucky guess
Marte hikes her skirt up as high as she can, removes her shoes, and then steps into the muddy pool.
She shuffles around the pool, telling Olli that she believes that on this occasion, her feet will work just as well for her as her hands would.
She soon admits that the cold of the mud is starting to make things more difficult for her to feel, though.
Marte then starts using her feet to shovel out large clumps of mud from the pool, and tells Olli that she believes that there is a rubber duck hidden in there somewhere (not an unfair assumption for her to make, based on how often they appear in tasks). However, she is frustrated by the fact that she subsequently walks around the area of the pool multiple times and feels nothing in there.
Marte questions whether she could lay down in the pool and then declare that she is the one at the bottom, and Olli simply replies that she can do whatever she wants. Marte apparently decides against using this solution, but then makes an incredibly lucky guess, stating that there is a giant picture of Olli’s face at the bottom, before telling him to stop the clock.
Marte completes the task in 11 minutes and 10 seconds, and earns fourth place.
