Episode scores

Winner notes

The winner of this episode was mostly decided based on the outcome of the final live task, in which more than half of all the points awarded in the episode were given out. Each word listed in the task earned both the lister and the person who came up with the category one point, and the person who chose the most interesting category was also awarded five bonus points. Thus, Christoffer earned 21 of his 30 points from this single task.
