In this episode, the contestants must bring in something they once regretted buying but no longer do, find a mandarin hidden in a line of identical socks, perform the greatest deed possible with their little finger, and catch balls in a stovepipe hat. The guest contestant is Jarkko Niemi, but he is represented in the studio by season 5 guest contestant Sointu Borg (the two met and became good friends while competing on the same season of the Finnish version of Dancing with the Stars in 2023).
