A warm welcome to the season finale of Bäst i Test!
Yes, for nine weeks, our brave panel has continued to trudge through these tasks
but tonight, one of them will be crowned the winner,
and get to lift my golden bust above their head!
And those hunting for victory tonight are:
The unharnessed chaos-chaser, Marcus Berggren!
The energetic firebrand, Sussie Eriksson!
The singing artist-of-all-trades, Anis Don Demina!
And the contented creator, Sofia Dalén!
But here to give the panel's plans for victory a spanner in the works
the stand-up comedian who's put Degeberga on the map: Petrina Solange!
And on this night of honour, we're going to get to see, among other things, this:
"Run"? Are you insane?! - Stop, stop, stop
Chili!
Look me in the eye. - It was a foolproof plan.
Can you see that I'm swimming, here? - We're never doing this again.
Yes, another wonderful season is starting to near its end.
And I wonder, what'll stick with you from this season? Experiences?
Like, how much fun we've had.
What do you think about your chances to win? Marcus?
No, I think I'm gonna win.
I mean, I've lost everything so far, so it'd be
nice to get to be good at something at some point.
Anything can change, you mean.
Yeah, I hope it's changing now, because
otherwise it'll be a long spring up ahead.
How do you feel?
Sofia's been brilliant this whole season.
How heatedly do you crave my golden bust, here?
I've always craved it.
But she's from Jönköping. She's got God on her side, that's cheating.
A tip for future participants. - "Try to be from Jönköping."
You're also slightly tempted, huh, Anis.
Yeah, well - Sofia's been brilliant, but I think I've had a good average.
Petrina, how does it feel? How do you think your odds
are stacked up against this fairly mediocre bunch?
Looking on either side of me, I feel like this shouldn't be too dang hard
but I also know that I can be just real damn awful, huh.
Okay. This is a festive finale evening here, but there's
a small stain on the goblet of joy, and here he is
David Sundin!
Wow! Babben, wow! Thank you, thank you!
Sixth season, wow. My god, time sure flies, it just keeps going.
Making me remember all the moments that...
David, what's with you this year? You're so nostalgic.
You've got one job, and that's to kick off the first task. Okay?
Yeah, okay. Here's tonight's first task:
A photography session with a spin on it.
I'll run. - Or?
Okay!
"Look as different as you possibly can on four"
"separate photographs taken with this camera."
Wow, so old! - Thank you, thank you.
"The camera will spin four times, and take"
"a picture each time it faces the frame."
"You may not affect the camera or its rotation mechanism."
"You yourself have to be in each of the four photos."
"Most variance between photos wins."
"The camera will start rotating in exactly"
"20 minutes, after which it will take its first photo."
"Your time starts now."
Most variance... - Props...
we're going to need. - We're gonna need props.
And I'm supposed to be in all four photos?
You're in all four photos.
Right, the goal of this was to take four
photos as dissimilar to each other as possible.
You had 20 minutes to prepare before the camera started rotating
snapping four consecutive shots.
This is probably going to be an
artistically grand photographic exhibition.
Who are we starting with?
You know what? Here comes every contestant, all at once.
It's funny, I haven't planned anything.
No. You're just going for this one. Taking the day as it comes.
Marcus, are you ready? - I'm so ready.
Then I'll get the camera rolling. Three, two, one, photo!
Photo! Photo!
Photo!
Photo. And the last one.
Three, two, one, photo!
Three, two, one, photo.
And the fourth, last one... - Parachuting.
That was parachuting? - It was.
Good work. - Thanks. Look me in the eye, then.
Thanks, David. I had... fun.
Quick as a flash, this. Petrina, was it stressful?
It was stressful, and now I feel like I could've had
a bit more variation. Could've gotten naked, and such.
But I wouldn't have done that, but still. I didn't think of it at the time.
Marcus, you had a lot of props.
No, I've got no memory of being there doing those things.
But I can see, now, that I was, so I'll have to be held accountable.
Now, I'd certainly be curious to see this series of photos.
Well, we can start by taking a look at Marcus' photography.
So we've got this one, of course, this one,
of course, that - and the final image, there.
All of them look like the same picture.
Okay. Whose photographic journey will we be accompanying now?
Here's Petrina's.
Wow! And the bike. - I love the bike!
And there was fire before, but it's just
been extinguished. Just been extinguished.
I spent a long time looking for a lot of gasoline.
Marcus already used all of it.
I was thinking it'd be, like, a Las Vegas show,
but it landed on a budget version.
More of a small cabaret fire, rather than a Las Vegas show.
But who's up next? - Here comes Anis... and I.
What? You're in them?
Wow!
- Good.
Is there someone trying to act like me here? Could that be the case?
Yeah, exactly.
We're representing what's quite possibly the coolest
thing in Sweden. Babben and David. Or, Babben, then David
or Babben plus one, and then we put the
painting in front to visualise extra clearly.
Time for the next artist, then.
An artistic photographer by the name of Sofia Dalén.
And she's currently in her red period.
Wow! Very good.
Guide us through your exhibit.
Maybe I didn't think the red suit would be that red in every picture.
What'd you think it'd be, then?
But I thought I was getting dressed layer by layer,
so you wouldn't suspect the red until I jumped, but...
More like that dress: "Is it blue, is it gold?" But this was... red.
You kind of look like Marcus in the last image, I think.
And the third one on the corner, there.
When you say hi on your YouTube channel: "Yo! Hey! Homie in da house!"
Right, then. Just one model left to go. - Yes. Which would be... Sussie.
Wow! - Wow!
Yeah! - Good!
Good variation, Sussie. Which image are you most pleased with?
I think I'm actually most pleased with the first one.
I think it lends a gravitas that I might not have in the other photographs.
One question: What's the point of the frame,
when you still include everything around it?
So you can have something to focus on a bit. "Somewhere around here."
Time to assign scores to this. And the task revolved
around taking four pictures, as different as possible.
So that'll be 1 point for Marcus. Approximately
the same expression, even if it was...
But that's how my face looks, Babben. - Yeah, I know. I know.
2 for Sofia. The red overall kind of made it a
bit too unified, blurred together, quite simply.
Petrina, good variation in the pictures, but
not quite enough against Anis, who gets 4 points
for imaginative work and an extra to boot,
but the 5 points go to Sussie Eriksson!
I got 5 points! - Next task, then, David.
We shall. And here, you just have to pull the string and see what happens.
Hi! - Hullo!
Hello, hello.
Oh my... yeah.
Feels kind of like a horror film, this. - Hell of a crappy horror film...
"Pull the string."
"Your time starts now."
It's scary, now. - And the timer, well, that's running.
This feels like a trap.
Is there poison inside? - Not poison.
Guess I'll do it, then. - Now.
Oh, that's right... there was this one, too.
Uh huh?
It's going to say "pick up all the ping-pong balls".
"Put all the" Oh, for the love of
"Put all the ping-pong balls back in the bag."
"You may not remove or in any other way move the bag."
"The fastest one to put all the ping-pong balls"
"back in the bag wins." Yeah, I understand.
So I absolutely can't remove the bag? - No, that's there.
Yeah, there were some more.
Right. Guess I'll go get some things together, then.
Boo!
Right, so, the goal was to clean up after
yourself after having made a mess in this way.
Some ping-pong balls got accidentally released
here, and needed to go back in the bag
which could be slightly tricky, since you weren't allowed
to remove or move the bag with the opening at the bottom.
Whose bag are we starting with? - Think it'll have to be Sussie's.
If you're wondering, I'm heading back now. Hi, David.
But... I don't know if this was too good, but...
No. - Judging from how it looks right now, most of them are still outside.
Absolutely, it certainly is. But you have to start
somewhere, as the actress said to the bishop.
She said that? - I don't know. No!
Now, let's see if miss Eriksson can, like, find some smart...
way to, like, poke in...
I'm trying to, like, make a little pocket, so they'll stay there.
You know what I've realised? You know that
thing with chickens and eggs, and so on?
How that works?
Yeah. Do you know that? Because I don't.
I don't know. Do you need to have a rooster?
What the hell are you talking about?
But there's no possible way I'll put all of
them back. You understand that, right?
I'm betting no one's going to manage even three.
I can probably push some more in.
Could that be a two-digit amount of balls, there?
Absolutely. You know, I'm chugging along here, so I
don't have the time to talk to you. I'm competing.
But it's not going to be all of them?
No, it won't. - No. We've already...
We've already stated that.
We've already decided that. This isn't crossing the finish line.
You're starting to feel that, either way,
you're last. That's how you might feel.
"I'm not going to win this", you might feel.
No, I'm going for the win.
Yes! Look at that!
I've done everything according to the letter.
There's just one little detail, actually.
"Put all the ping-pong balls back."
Does it say "all"? - "All ping-pong balls."
But... there isn't zero balls in the bag, if I put it that way.
No...
Well, in that case... good work. - Thanks!
This is... - Going to be something to tell... yeah.
But Sussie, it started out so well. Miss
Eriksson, you usually don't give up, do you?
No, but I did here, because I realised "Ah, this can't be done".
This is the right attitude to have for this
crap. All of us should've just gone home.
She also thought that no one else would manage this. Is that accurate?
We'll have to see about that. Here's Anis and Marcus.
Just have to start tidying up, then. This is gonna take a year.
Okay, let's see the construction here. Okay, I should
tie it first and make a small, ping-pong-ball shaped hole
where I can push them in one by one.
Do ALL of them need to go in?
You know what, I'll double-check
if it says "half" or if it says "some"...
"Put all the ping-pong balls back in the bag", it says.
First in, second in - do they have to be in a particular condition?
No, just have to be in there.
I should crush all the ping-pong balls, and build a mega-ping-pong ball.
Where the hell did the hole go?
Hello again. Okay, we'll start with
the best friend of Montessori children: blue tack.
Because I have infinite time, really. - Yeah. For good and ill, actually.
I don't know whether it's a good idea, but what
we did here before wasn't, like, reasonable.
He came, he saw...
There, yeah. And we're off. - Looks like... Danish design.
I summon you, the spirit of Jan-Ove Waldner.
Can I use tools to get the ping-pong balls up?
You know what?
We could've actually done that from the start.
You're a wise man.
There. Now, David! - Now we're off.
Now we can grab six-seven balls at a time.
That's right, and you can...
No! - Of course. Mr. Bean.
What's your favourite food? You feel like a potato-pancake man.
No, no, no, no, no... yeah, those can be good.
Imagine the feeling when I push up the motherball.
Yeah.
I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Be careful not to miss the finish line...
Wow, it's almost starting to run out.
Should've had scissors.
Good, good - wow, wow, wow, the sweat's
making it slide around like a little seal.
When I saw the ping-pong balls fall, everyone thought it was impossible.
Then, when I started trying to push them back up
from below, even I felt like it was impossible.
But my mom told me: "Quitters never win."
So I found a way, and we'll soon have reached our goal.
The motherball. - Into the cave...
The balls are picked up, they're in the bag,
everything's been done by the book. Good work.
There!
Thanks! Thanks. Fun to be here.
See, see? It worked, but it certainly wasn't fast. Anis, was it tough?
There were, like, no shortcuts.
It was slightly a representation of reality, there: If
you want to get to the top, you have to work your ass off.
But you made a mega-glueball out of everything.
I get hard... mentally! I get strong, up here,
by seeing myself work this hard logically.
Just getting those damn balls up there. Thanks for having me.
How long did the boys take?
Anis kept this up slowly and steadily for 36
minutes and 6 seconds, which is quite a lot.
Marcus, slightly faster, got all the balls
into the bag in 24 minutes and 42 seconds.
So unlike Sussie, they at least got a time, so that's good.
Yeah, that's good.
Then let's see if Petrina and Sofia can beat this time.
That we shall, immediately.
I could've just pulled a little, and then
you could've just given me the letter.
And you'd have been done. That's right.
Yeah, I'll have to admit, that one's on me.
Right. We've gathered them up a bit. Now, I'm
going to get an industrial vacuum cleaner.
And we're off.
In lieu of an industrial vacuum cleaner, this is the closest thing...
Four minutes have passed, now.
It really helps that you're announcing the time.
If I'd been better at golf, I would've chipped them all in.
I maybe, maybe could...
Just that gang over there that we're waiting for, then.
And then the bag too, right?
That's all of them. - There. Step 1, one could say.
Now... - We enter phase 2.
Now, it's sink or swim. - Bag.
Ah, smart. - Petrina, did we have the same one?
That's right.
So nice to have them gathered in one bag.
Not having to put them in one at a time.
It's terrible to see things like this in hindsight. It's so smooth.
Marcus, we're so goddamn stupid.
But what about me, huh?!
Wow! Doesn't look like you've done anything else. Is that a lifehack? - Yup, it is.
Does this count?
You know what? The balls are in the bag.
We're never going to do this again. - No...?
Done! - Good work.
No!
Right, well, it feels like these two were
substantiallyfaster than both Anis and Marcus.
Even without industrial vacuum cleaner,
Petrina landed on 17 minutes and 58 seconds.
Very nice work.
And Sofia was a tad faster still, solved this
in 14 minutes and 15 seconds, fastest of all.
But who was the one who forgot two balls, thus not completing the task?
Right, I'm going to announce that now.
The one who forgot two ping-pong balls was...
Sofia. - No!
So instead of getting 5 points, she'll have to contend
with getting as many points as Sussie, namely 0.
This turn of events does mean that Anis' incredibly slow time nets him 3 points!
Marcus gets the 4, and Petrina nabs her first 5-pointer!
Well, how does one move on after drama
like this? I suggest we use another task.
We shall, and now it's time for our recurring panelists to find one another.
Hello? - Hello?
Who is it? Hi, Marcus. This is Sussie.
I hear you. Anis, can you hear me?
I hear you. Okay, can you see the letter if I hold it up?
Bring up, up... there, there, and a bit closer.
Slightly closer to the camera, please. And get your thumb off it, bestie.
Stop, stop, stop! "Shake hands with your teammate."
"If you're wearing a blindfold, you may not remove it."
"If you're standing on a red carpet, you may not leave it."
"The fastest team to shake each others' hands wins."
"Your time starts now."
Are you wearing a blindfold? ...No, I am.
Okay, but I'm standing on a red carpet. Should I guide you towards me?
Listen to me, now! I'm outdoors, I can't see
anything, I'm wearing a helmet. This is dangerous!
So, the goal was simply to find each other. But one of
the team members sees what the other one should see.
So, the goal is to, through instruction, navigate the other one to your location
and, of course, as usual, as quickly as possible.
Right, and this is a team task. And, as usual, the
members of the winning team can get 3 points each
and you can win 3 points by guessing which team is the fastest.
Do you think it'll be your couchmates there, Marcus
and Sussie, or Anis and Sofia on the YouTube-couch?
It's important to be slightly high-tech, but it's also important to be impartial
it's hard, but I think I'm leaning towards the YouTube-couch.
You're betting on the youth, here. Okay.
What's your thought process, here? Because I was
blindfolded and asking: "Are you wearing a blindfold?"
Have you thought this through?
Yeah, but there was the fear, here, yelling that this is dangerous.
Then we've stamped that result. Exciting.
Time to take a look at how it went.
I don't even recognise this. Where the hell are you?
So you don't see me?
No, I'm inside the house. You - there you are, go that way, go that way!
What, can you see me through the window? - No, I'm seeing what you're seeing.
'Cause I read the letter before, because you're filming it somehow.
Yeah! That's right.
Look to your left, I'm seeing, I'm seeing. Slightly
more to the right, and start walking. Walk, now.
Is this safe, then? - Yeah, it's a gravel path.
Ah! There's a rock there.
Angle to the right a bit. - Are you sure it's my right, now?
No, I don't know. But try it. - "Try it."
Walk. Walk. - It's scary!
You have to walk faster. This is a contest.
No. Try more to the left, then.
No, no, no. Wrong direction. - Alright.
Any rocks or something? - Could you look down, maybe? And I can see more of your feet.
Yeah, that's right, you don't see me, you see the camera.
I thought you were standing somewhere, watching...
Stop, stop, stop! There's a tree there. Slightly
more to the right - there, yeah, there's the house!
No, right, right, right! - It's scary, this, you understand.
Look down a bit. There could be a rock there. Bit
to the right - could you look down at your feet?
You're pulling really hard to the left right now. Stop.
Right! - There's bushes...
There, there! Run, run! - "Run"? Are you insane!?
If you just walked slightly faster. Can you jog a bit?
No.
That's good. Straight ahead. You're heading for
the shed now, Sussie, and it's a free-for-all!
Can you see that I'm swimming here? - Yeah, you don't need to.
You're pulling really hard to the left still. You're
really close to me. I'm inside the house, in the office.
You're on the grass now, and the gravel soon.
Okay. I'm on the gravel now, I'm on the gravel!
Yeah! There's the door! - "There" where?
No, not there, but in front of you. You'll have to take my word for it.
If you just walk, there. - So this is a stair step?
No, not yet, not yet.
Just walk a bit. Stop, stop, stop.
Take a right there, and just go straight ahead there.
I'm by the staircase! I'm by the staircase!
Yeah, I can hear you now!
Take your right hand and feel for a doorknob.
Where's the doorknob? Ring, ring -
You don't have to ring the doorbell - yes!
I can hear you.
We're in here. This is where I am right now.
Can you hear me, Sussie? Straight ahead, straight ahead!
Straight ahead - no, watch the table, there
You're pulling to the left a lot.
I have to be in the hallway now.
You can almost see me now. There, around the corner
No, no, back up - What's... what?
Here I am!
Are you here?! Where are you?!
Reach out your hand! - Good! There!
I've never been this happy! My god, where are you?
Good work. There. Nice.
Goodbye, David. You'll have to hold onto me, here.
Yeah, just straight ahead here...
Sussie, you didn't seem totally comfortable with this.
Still, you were brave.
Yeah. I don't remember, but you
might not have been too clear every time.
And slightly harsh, almost. "Run, goddammit!" I wouldn't
have dared myself, not really, but that was good.
Sofia, would you have jogged if you were wearing a blindfold?
Yeah.
But I do think you would've, because you're not afraid of getting hurt.
Or? But you know when you get a shopping
cart that veers really hard to the left...
That's Anis. - Yeah.
David, what times did they get?
It was actually, perhaps surprisingly, very, very even.
Anis and Sofia managed this task in 5 minutes and 9 seconds.
And Marcus and Sussie were just 18 seconds...
faster!
3 points for Marcus and Sussie!
In your face! In your also, for believing in them. In all of your faces!
And Petrina, you bet your points on the wrong couch this time
so you get 0, but no deductions, at least.
Then we've reached the middle of the show,
where it's once again time for Bambi to head out
on slippery interview-ice, and Bambi, in this case, is the adorable David Sundin.
Ah. What?
Thank you, thank you, Babben. Thank you, thank you.
"Slippery ice", for what it's worth... I've done
this for so long now, so no need to worry about my...
Hello there! Petrina Solange, welcome to the show, of course.
Nice to see you. - Nice to be here. Nice to see you too.
I'll just write that down, so that I've got... "It was nice to see me".
You do stand-up, and also acting.
Saying things, doing different noises and such
that you hope people are going to like, and...
You've got a microphone that you make noises into and
so on. Cool to learn a bit about how things work back...
Backstage, I'm inclined to think.
And exciting that you bring up this thing, about
your profession revolving around making noises
because it's namely time to play Make A Noise!
Petrina, go ahead and read the task for your co-contestants.
"Taking turns, make a noise without Babben identifying you."
"The noise has to be at least two seconds long."
"Your time starts on David's signal."
Babben's going to turn around, with her back to you.
If Babben can guess you're making this noise, you get 0 points.
If Babben can't guess it, you get 1 point.
Are you ready, and have you understood?
So, it's important not to get yourself noticed. Babben, kindly rotate.
The first and only time I obey, David. - Thank you, thank you.
The category in the first round is birdsong.
At least two seconds. We'll start with person...
Anis.
Then we'll go for person...
Sofia. - Thank you very much.
Then we'll let person... come up.
Sofia.
Then we'll let person... come up.
Petrina. - Person...
Marcus.
Then we enter round 2. The sound category is beatboxing.
Beatboxing, so, the sound of drums being produced via the mouth.
We'll start with person...
Marcus. - Person...
Sussie. - Person...
Anis.
If you're really good at something, then... person...
Boom!
Petrina.
May I ask person... to come up.
Sofia. - Then we enter the last round.
The category is big, creepy monster. And we'll let person... come up.
Marcus.
Then we'll ask person... to come up.
Sussie. - Then I'll ask person... to come up.
I think that's Petrina. - Person...
Ah, I think that's Marcus.
Can I ask person... to come up.
Sofia. - Good work, everyone. The game is over.
And that's how we play Make A Noise.
Right, I'm unusually excited about finding
out what points got assigned to this.
Regarding Sofia, you guessed Sofia on every attempt,
so 0 points for Sofia. That's how it goes sometimes.
1 point each for Marcus, Petrina and Anis, and 2 points for Sussie Eriksson!
Tonight's my night!
Then let's move on with... right, well, should
we go for another task? What can we expect next?
Now, it's time for us to offer up five very strong acting performances.
The king. - Howdy, howdy.
My crown's slightly small, yeah. I have a large head.
Go ahead. - Yes.
"Act." - "You can choose to eat the chili pepper or not eat the chili pepper."
"Afterwards, read the attached script in its entirety."
"If Babben can correctly guess whether you ate"
"the chili pepper or not, you're disqualified."
"If Babben can't guess whether you ate"
"the chili pepper or not, you get 3 points."
"You have 2 minutes. Your time starts when"
"somebody suddenly yells 'Places, everyone!'."
Right. So, the goal was to act as well and believably as possible.
Namely, try to trick Babben into whether you'd eaten
a chili pepper, or hadn't eaten a chili pepper.
Which is 3 points to win, if you manage to trick Babben.
Who'll be trying to trick me first?
That'll be the grand acteur, Anis Don Demina.
Places, everyone!
"I am the king of the chili pepper."
"The most astonishing king you've ever beheld."
"I can eat chili peppers, but I can also abstain."
"Have I eaten, or have I not eaten a chili pepper?"
"That... [cough]... is the question."
"And now..."
"Now, the time has come for me to die."
Right, that was Anis. An incredible acting effort. Babben?
Do you think Anis, just before this, had eaten a chili pepper or not?
You're tricky. I think you're intentionally
overacting here so that I'll think you're acting
and that you haven't eaten, so I think you have eaten.
Then Anis will get to show whether he ate or did not eat a chili pepper,
which he'll do by picking up one or half of a chili from the bag.
Go ahead, Anis. - Babben, I've tricked a lot of people.
I'm a trickster. You may be the only person I've never managed to trick
until today!
Nice job, Anis. Right, then - who will
be the next to eat or not eat their chili?
Now, it's time for Sofia and Sussie to enter the stage.
Places, everyone!
"I am the king of the chili pepper."
"I am the king of the chili pepper!"
"The most astonishing king you've ever beheld."
"I can eat chili peppers!"
"But I can also abstain."
"Have I - have I eaten"
"or have I not... eaten... a chili pepper?"
"That is the question. Now, the time has come for me to die!"
Ah!
And playing the role of the chili pepper
king, we saw Sofia Dalén and Sussie Eriksson.
Had they eaten chili peppers or not? That is, indeed, the question. Babben?
Sussie, you were breathing through the
nose, so the question is, was that to avoid
getting air on your mucous membranes, enflamed by the chili pepper?
On the other side, you acted with a hoarse voice, so it was
slightly bordering on... I don't think you ate the chili pepper.
Sussie? Had you eaten the chili pepper?
No, you hadn't eaten it. Because it's still there, after all.
Oh, right. Right, right.
Right, Sofia, I can't quite determine if you
played a bad actor well, or did a good actor poorly
But I thought you seemed to be talking uninterrupted,
so I'll conclude that you hadn't eaten the chili pepper.
Sofia, had you eaten the chili pepper?
She'd eaten!
The chili pepper was eaten. The chili pepper was eaten.
Okay. Who's up next?
The kings of the chilli pepper, Marcus and Petrina.
Places, everyone.
"I am the king of the chili pepper. The most astonishing king ev..."
Sorry. I'll do a re-take.
"I am the king of the chili pepper."
"The most astonishing king you've ever beheld."
Not in the eye!
"I can eat chili peppers. Can also totally not bother."
"Have I eaten, or have I not eaten..."
"Now, the time has come for me t..."
"The time has come for me to die."
What do you think about these?
Marcus, we've gotten to know you a bit during this season.
I have a hard time believing that you
could abstain from eating the chili pepper.
I think you lunged at it, and you also seemed to
be really struggling with staying straight-faced
so if you're acting, I think you should drop everything
else you're doing and apply to drama school, actually.
I think Marcus has eaten the chili pepper.
No drama school for me.
Petrina, I know you also work a bit as an actor, too.
To me, there seemed to be some staged acting-effects
here. I don't think you'd eaten the chili pepper.
No. - But it looked like she was crying!
But that'll still be 3 points for Sofia and Anis.
What'll be served up in the next task? Something else edible, maybe?
Something I think everyone can relate to:
Long-distance toothbrushing.
Howdy-doo. - Hello.
Hello, David. - Hello.
Hi! Oh!
"Brush David's teeth from as long a distance as possible." - "Longest distance wins."
"You have 20 minutes. Your time starts now." Okay...
Let's go. - We're off.
Right, here, the goal was to help me through
my day-to-day life by brushing my teeth
you were to do this from as long a distance as
possible. We'll take a look at Anis, Sofia and Sussie.
It has to be movements here and there, right.
But a string can just pull, like that... Wait.
Like I've been really clever. Come up with something all on my own.
But then I have to attach the toothbrush...
No, it doesn't feel... - Too steady?
Not yet, anyway.
Right, I can see what needs to be adjusted.
There's an Easter mood, here. Nailing a cross.
Jönköping in the house.
It did get long, but not too stable. - Perfect.
And why use a cross?
To get a bit of a Biblical feel, actually.
This is - where are you?! - Oh...
Thinking about whether I should get the flagpole involved...
The old drum-and-box combo.
This is so good. - Ah, how nice.
5 minutes and 40 seconds to go.
Ah! Nothing slidey. - Are we just going around looking, now?
There. - A minute and a half to go.
Am I close?
Dammit! It runs out.
Now you're just here. So you can almost just...
Ugh, why aren't I thinking?!
Wait...
One minute to go, Anis.
Could I get some more teeth? - 30 seconds left.
Getting warm.
10 seconds left.
Open your mouth! - Three, two, one...
It didn't really go how I'd imagined it. - How had you imagined it?
I had a different vision.
Terrific. Good work. - Thanks, David.
Did it brush?
Mainly the pants, the suit, the shirt...
Still, good work. - The plan was foolproof, though!
Yes, there we go. We do have to end the season with some duct-taped sticks.
Anis, you had a long stick with some sort of checkpoint in between.
Yeah, there were some pit stops. The problem was that you have
to go forward, like that, but also go that direction, too.
So that the toothbrush will, like, hit the teeth. So
I had ropes going around drainage gutters and such...
There was a bit of a Tareq Taylor-aura on me there, I thought.
What distances did these brushes get? - Unfortunately, 0 metres for Sofia.
Sussie did a fair amount of deep brushing,
you got 3 metres and 26 centimetres.
Anis brushed my teeth and also a substantial chunk of
my face from a distance of 4 metres and 20 centimetres
thereby entering the lead.
I still have a strong suspicion that things might get even
stickier, now that we're going to take a look at Marcus.
He thought slightly differently, and worked from a vertical level.
Good! Let's go, then! Come on!
If you can just lie down there, and open wide...
10 minutes left.
Open wide, David! Here comes the toothpaste!
Sorry. There.
Think you can lick some into your mouth? - Yup.
Open wide.
Perfect. Good, David, good! Now keep that in
your gob, because here comes the toothbrush!
It's like there's a breeze. Now... no.
Sorry. There... no.
There. There. Now let's brush our teeth, David.
Look at that! It's like an electric toothbrush... Whoops.
I've got toothpaste in my eye, Marcus! - Yeah... sorry, sorry.
I think you're done there, Marcus.
Yeah, I'm just gonna rinse, David. You with me?
There! Teeth brushed.
Do they feel refreshed? Fair amount to rinse there, in the end.
Did you get sparkly whites, there? - Thank you kindly... for the help.
Thanks! Sorry about everything.
But that is true, Marcus. A lot of people
miss that, you're supposed to rinse properly.
That's important. That's what my dentist always told me.
But on the other hand, there wasn't really any power in the actual brushing.
Like, I had the time to think, in the middle of
the task: "Can you get fired from Bäst i Test?"
But you couldn't.
If you could, you wouldn't be sitting here in the finale.
What result did this get?
So, Marcus obtained 2 metres and 42 centimetres.
But we haven't seen Petrina yet.
No, and she used slightly different methods, so this could be neat to see.
Power tools.
Your teeth are going to jump straight out of your mouth.
14 minutes left.
Then we want enough pressure, so that you don't, you know, get hit.
You know, one tiny injury here and there...
You can afford new teeth. Go ahead.
And that's how fast it's supposed to go? - Yeah.
Then I ask, how do you get the toothpaste on once you've started?
That's easy. There. The toothpaste's on, now.
And then you've just got to lean forward. There, yeah. Like that.
There. Doing good there? Bye.
Ah, so smart!
Bye.
It hurts a bit! Petrina!
Don't talk, you're brushing your teeth.
Five, four, three, two, one, zero!
Ah... good work!
Ah, brilliant, Petrina, brilliant. Now we're talking electric toothbrush.
I did have an even better plan, when I found out
what the challenge was, to order a taxi and ride away
to really ensure I got the furthest away, but
I didn't know at the time they'd be this bad.
In that case, I would've just moved slightly to the side.
And this looked like a long distance, David.
Yes, Petrina's tooth-brushing, which
rendered me unable to feel my lips and so on
was from 570 metres away, actually.
So, if we summarise this, we have 1 point for Sofia, 2 for Marcus
3 for Sussie, 4 for Anis, and 5 snazzy points for Petrina!
Thank you, thank you. Thank you, thank you.
What can that give us in terms of total standings?
Let's see, then. After this toothbrush task, we've got Sofia with... 6 points.
I don't know if anyone's ever had this little in one show.
What happened to God? - He abandoned you, Sofia.
Marcus steps up to 11 points, Sussie with 13. We've got Petrina with 14.
Anis is in the lead, 15 points.
But you know what? Anything can happen and everything
can change, because it's time for the finale.
The time has come for the finale of the finale of Bäst i Test.
Marcus, may I ask you to read the letter? You can pass it down to Marcus.
Pass it to Marcus. - Pass it to Marcus.
Pass it to Marcus. - Pass it t- no, that's right.
Fun guy. - Goddamn, the stuff I come up with.
"Stand up after 100 seconds. Closest to 100"
"seconds wins. The task starts on David's signal."
So, I'm going to tell you when it starts.
After that, you're supposed to get up as close to 100 seconds as possible.
And I can tell you that it's pretty exciting. If we
look at the season in its entirety, I can tell you that:
This is the moment of truth. Here and now. 100 seconds.
Are you ready? Your time starts now.
The timer's running, and you're supposed to try to figure out
how long a second is, and then put them
in a row, so as to make a total sum of 100
tiny, tiny fragments of time. And what a season we've
had, huh? Sussie, what weather we've been having.
And Sofia, who's constantly been
biting off slightly more than she can chew.
We've fought for nine episodes, and we've
inflated balloons. How many are we thinking?
Can we have popped and inflated 20, 30, 40, 37
balloons? I don't know anymore. I don't know.
It feels like you're trying to get me off-track, here.
We've gone through hundreds of coconuts and rubber ducks. I don't know.
Now, out of old habit, I was close to saying how much time was left.
But you've been good. Time's interesting in the
way that it keeps going regardless, actually.
It keeps ticking and tocking as much as it can. Sofia's gotten up.
I think she's starting to regret that a little, maybe.
But why- no...
Petrina's gotten up. Anis has gotten up.
Marcus has gotten up, and we still don't know
if the rules have entirely reached Sussie.
Wow, wow, wow... - Right, then.
Then it's time to find out who wins this show,
and who wins the entire season. Come down and sit.
Cut it out. Cut it out, I said! You don't need to. I get paid for this.
Okay! Then we can say that we've analysed the times...
The goal was to get up as closely to 100 seconds as possible.
We had two extremes, as you may remember.
One got up at 83 seconds, which was Sofia
and Sussie in 121 seconds. A fairly equal distance apart, you two.
Then we had Marcus, who got up after
108 seconds. That'll be 3 points for you.
Anis and Petrina, slightly close, still. Kind of fun, that.
One landed on exactly 100 seconds.
Anis, you got up after 105 seconds and get 4 points.
Petrina, 100 seconds exactly!
Really, really nice! Really, really nice.
What?! - Petrina!
So, if we add these points to the total here tonight
we can see that Sofia wound up with a dizzying 8 points.
But what's slightly cool is that you land in third place.
You're still last, butyou're in third place,
because we've actually got a split second place
with 14 points each, we find Marcus and Sussie!
Which means that you can work
out that we also have a split first place.
5 points and 4 points give 19, 19! A split first place go to Petrina and Anis
who share honour and glory here in the finale.
Before we present the winner of the season
I can already reveal that we'll be back next
year with another season! Ah, how wonderful.
I already have a lot of ideas for what we're going to do.
I'm thinking one task full of rubber ducks, potentially.
Satsumas, of course...
David, please. The stakes are fairly high here, could you focus?
Of course. Of course. Here it comes. - We can take it easy, Sussie.
When we add up all the points, we find with 147 points and in fifth place:
Marcus Berggren.
Good! What a lot of points!
Yeah, still sounded like a lot, adding it all up.
With 152 points and in fourth place, who could it be?
Yeah, it's you, Sussie. It is you! - Sussie!
You know yourself well enough, but it was even!
It was even, a difference of just five points.
But you know what? It gets more even still. I can tell you that
between first and second place, there's just a 1-point difference.
I can also tell you that between second and
third place, there's just a 1-point difference.
At the top, and it's some distance from you two.
In between there, there's a pretty hefty gap.
With 173 points
and third place, we find
Anis Don Demina.
That's a medallion position.
So, it's between Sofia Dalén and the guests.
Because they've also gotten to
save up all their points, fair or unfair...
A lovely bunch. - It's a lovely bunch. It is.
With 174 points, and in second place...
we find...
Sofia Dalén.
Which means that with 175 points, and the first place of the season:
We find Lotta Engberg, Vanna Rosenberg, Tareq Taylor
Jerka Johansson, Fredde Granberg, Johanna Nordström, Annika Lantz
Danny and Nassim and Petrina Solange!
Welcome up and try to lift Babben's bust!
Wow, wow, wow!
What have we learned in today's show? Chili peppers can make you act up.
It's easiest to brush your teeth yourself, and
the Bäst i Test season isn't over after the finale
because we'll be back next week with the classic bonus episode
where we show you a bunch of tasks that didn't make
it into the regular shows. See you then, 20:00. Goodbye.
