Ingrid discovers a book allergy
Ingrid opts to be unable to use her arms.
She moves an empty drinks trolley to the table of objects, and then uses her teeth to pull the tablecloth beneath the objects as close to it as possible, allowing as many of them to fall onto the trolley as possible.
She then uses her mouth to pull the cart by its handle, moving it into the lounge. While she’s doing this, she accidentally pushes her head onto the cactus, causing her to cry out that “I got a cactus in my forehead” (thus coining the episode title).
Ingrid then begins the time-consuming process of picking up individual objects with her mouth and correctly placing them on the empty shelves – gagging and retching every time she has to hold a book in her mouth. This causes a break in composure from Olli, who laughs so hard he has to sit down on a nearby couch.
Ingrid actually attempts to pick up the cactus itself with her mouth, which naturally leads to her having a mouth full of needles. After several unsuccessful attempts to pick up the cactus pot itself – at one point trying to do so using lip suction – she abandons it.
In her final seconds, she picks up a book from the table in the adjoining room with her mouth, and then throws it onto the shelf just before her time runs out.
In the studio, Atle questions Ingrid about her apparent book allergy. Ingrid replies that she is easily nauseated, and so Atle points out that she probably should not have used her mouth for the task if she already knew that about herself.
Ingrid’s shelves aren’t bad, and everything that is placed is placed correctly, as she had the ability to see where everything was meant to go. However, she ultimately places fewer overall objects than Nora and Petter, and so earns fourth place.
