Episode synopsis
In this episode, the contestants must bring in the best life hack, get objects into a wine glass without breaking it, draw as many red cards in a row as possible, create a weapon to fell a suit of armour, and make a portrait of Atle out of snacks.
Title context
While explaining his prize task submission, Christian admits that it’s likely “more enlightenment than entertainment”.
Taskmaster Intro
Hello and welcome to episode two of season eight of Kongen Befaler from the Drammen theatre, where these five will be fighting day and night to win the best prize there is in the entertainment industry.
Assistant Intro
And the man who sits – I would say disobediently – by my side like an expectant puppy, waiting for a command, is none other than Olli Wermskog.
Note: Olli is “disobedient” because just prior to this introduction, he had attempted to be the one to say Atle’s “bust in gold of me” catchphrase.
