Episode synopsis

In this first episode of a new season, a fresh batch of contestants must bring in the most undervalued item, move ping-pong balls from one bucket to another, impress a professor of theoretical physics, make cream-based art, and imitate one another live on stage. The guest contestant is Pekka Strang.

Title context

The episode title is a reference to the 'Impress the professor' task.

Taskmaster Intro

Good evening! I'm Jaakko Saariluoma, and this is Suurmestari. Once again, we welcome you to come and watch five contestants exchange their dignity for points by doing tasks that I arbitrarily judge.

Assistant Intro

And paradoxically, here on my left side is my right-hand - the programme's official judge, Pilvi Hämäläinen.
