Den ananasen, det stedet!

Title coined by:

Atle Antonsen

Episode synopsis

In this episode the contestants must bring in something they wash too rarely, convince Atle that a car is going to 'backwards land', get an egg as high as possible, hang Atle's painting in the dark, and conceal a fruit on their person.

Title context

'That pineapple, that place' was a phrase uttered by Atle Antonsen in reference to Jenny Skavlan's decision to hide an entire pineapple in her crotch during the 'Conceal a fruit on your person' task.

Alternate Titles

On Sweden's SVT Play streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Vart kör lådbilen?', which translates as 'Where does the boxcar go?'. This is a reference to the 'Convince Atle that the car is going to backwards land' task, in which there is a car made from a cardboard box. [Translator credit: DANI]

Taskmaster Intro

Welcome to Drammen's Theatre and Kongen Befaler. Through five programmes, five participants have become five participants. And five will probably also be five after today's programme. But only one of them will be left in the end to win a bust of gold... of me.
