Episode synopsis
In this season finale, the contestants must bring in something they use too much (or too little), empty all the bottles, keep a train on its rails, burn a string to ring a bell, and pop up before a toaster does.
Title context
'Read the letter 100 times' was a maxim uttered - but not actually followed - by Trond Fausa Aurvåg during the 'Burn the string to ring the bell' task.
Alternate Titles
- On Sweden's SVT Play streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Läs brevet 100 gånger', which translates as 'Read the letter 100 times'. This is a straight translation of the original Norwegian title, which was a quote from Trond Fausa Aurvåg, during the 'Burn the string to ring the bell' task. [Translator credit: DANI]
