Episode synopsis
In this episode the contestants must bring in something they should have thrown away long ago, make an owl fly as high as possible, paint a portrait of the Taskmaster, put something on their head without using their hands and then recite a verse, and hit the ping pong balls but not the eggs.
Title context
'Terribly delivered, Minnie Mouse!' was an exclamation by Bård Ylvisåker during the 'Make the owl fly as high as possible' task.
Alternate Titles
- On Sweden's SVT Play streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Ana ugglor i luften', which translates as 'Sense owls in the air'. This is a reference to the 'Make the owl fly as high as possible' task, and a play on words on the Swedish idiom 'Ana ugglor i mossen' ('Sense owls in the marsh'), which is similar to the English phrase 'to smell a rat', meaning that one is suspicious.
