Welcome to the season finale of "Bäst i Test"!
Tonight, one lucky winner will lift my golden bust above their head!
Those in competition are:
The girl who loves tape and throwing. Gina Dirawi!
Hello!
The king of self doubt. Alfred Svensson!
Calmness personified. Olle Sarri!
Every other word in English. Christine Meltzer!
And cuppy, cuppy. Jan Rippe!
Tonight, among other things, you will see this...
-Farewell! -I'll fetch some fucking thing.
-Six! -I'm stopping now!
-Shame is my greatest enemy. -This is going to be good.
-Here you go. -I am Zlatan.
The little man on my nose is so excited.
What a fun task!
Right.
Yes, welcome. We have finally arrived here together.
I have to say this has been a very pleasant season. What do you think?
-Tremendous fun. -Among one of the funnest things I've ever done.
-My most pleasant season ever. -Yes, I can understand that!
What's the status over on the wedding couch?
We've gotten very close during this time.
If you could bet on this season's winner, who are you pointing at?
-Alfred. -Alfred or Olle.
It's probably really close between four of us. Sorry, Gina. I really think so.
Someone who has never gotten to lift any busts, but is still just as happy-
-is the assistant of all assistants, David Sundin!
Thank you, thank you. Wow! Thank you so much.
To think that we've been sat here now for all of ten seasons, Babben.
I will never forget when we first met.
Me neither, despite trying.
Let's kick off the first task of the evening.
It's about coming to the rescue for eggs in peril.
-Peekaboo! -Hi-de-ho. Hey!
-I thought it was one of those! -It was one of the normal ones.
-High-five, that's what it is. -Hey there, eggs. Is it Easter or something?
-Not eggs! -It's eggs.
I have a terrible relationship with eggs.
-Okay, take all this in now. -No!
"Save as many eggs as possible from the blender."
"David will start the blender in 45 seconds." Come on!
"The clock is ticking while you are in the lab"-
-"and is paused when you are outside the lab."
"You may not touch the eggs." What?! What do you mean not touch?
"You may not unplug the blender or remove the blender from the lab."
"Most intact eggs when the task is over wins."
"Your time starts now."
Yes, they had to save the eggs from becoming a smoothie in the blender.
They really had to get their brain cells cooperating from the get go.
They had 45 seconds before I pushed the big red button.
Unless they exited the lab, because that would pause the countdown.
Once they got back in the lab, the countdown resumed, and so on.
Yes, it's really only quick-thinking contestants we've got, right?
Sure we do. Sure we do.
First out to bring eggs to safety are Gina Dirawi and Olle Sarri.
"Your time starts now."
I'll just go outside to think. Is that smart?
I can't touch the eggs. No, I can analyze this here.
-Because then the time stops. -The time is not ticking now.
-The time isn't ticking now? -You are free to think.
I can't touch the eggs. But I should bring them out?
What did the task say? Did I have to be fast?
-Everything is in the task, Olle. -I have to get back in to read... I should have brought the task.
Farewell!
-But hey, David...? -Yes?
-If I'm wearing a glove? -Then you're not touching the eggs.
-Can I just bring the glass container out? -It didn't say anything about that.
I mean like this...
No, it's stuck!
An egg chair. That's sort of fitting.
I can't really hear you. Come inside and we'll talk.
No way!
But if I remove the tape?
-How much time has passed? -It's been 18 seconds.
-It's been 25 now. -No!
-So that's pretty... -No!
-No... No! -It's been 35 seconds.
No! I won't be able to remove it in 10 seconds. Wait. Wait. Let's analyze this.
Right now, I'm not inside. And if I am, it's only for a second.
Can I cut the tape off? Okay. Wait.
-I'll go get some fucking thing. -A fucking thing?
I'm going to the shed-thingie.
-To the what? -The shed!
Come on, think.
I'm going to try this now. I hope I've got a fair amount of time.
This seems a little risky. No, this won't work.
-Okay. I've got two options. -Yes?
-One is... what's it called, for putting pasta in. -Colander.
Either I dump the eggs in that...
Or, I've got two knives here. I'll cut the tape and run.
-What do you think? -Both sound very exciting.
And all within ten seconds. Are you starting with one and then moving to the second, or...?
Just sort of picking them out. Yes, maybe that's what I'll do.
-I want you to count the time down. -I promise.
You know what? We'll fucking risk it and go now.
Here it will be a bit protected.
This feels like you should be able to...
-As many as possible. -It should be possible to think of something smarter.
-But it still feels... -And hands out.
What? Hands up? No!
-I have no plan. I'm going. -You had two plans.
Yeah, but... Okay, let's go!
Come on, count! You're not counting!
Five, four, three, two, one, zero.
-Let's see here. -Oh, I didn't have to leave with them at all.
No, that was in your own time, so to speak.
-These are intact. -Yes, yes.
-This was very exaggerated. -On your part?
-Not from me. I was completely normal. -I fetched knives!
-Farewell. -I can't deal with myself.
Well, Gina. I don't know.
You went from two parallel plans to no plan at all, somehow.
-I keep not reading the full task! -We've seen that.
-How many eggs did they rescue? -Gina saved 9 eggs.
-And Olle, 15 eggs. -Yes, yes, yes.
There's no egg party without eggs breaking. But it would be nice with the full pot. [saying; "Inget kalas utan kras" - "There's no party without something breaking".]
I can only agree. Let's see if Christine Meltzer and Jan Rippe can manage it.
"Your time is ticking while you are in the lab, and are still..." ["står stilla" = "paused" (time) / "still" (not moving)]
"When you are outside the lab." What?
"Your time starts now."
The time is ticking now. But out there, the time is not ticking.
When you are outside the lab, time is standing still.
Yes, but... You can't touch the eggs?
-But the time is ticking... -There's only 30 seconds left.
Rippe!
-The time is ticking when you are in the lab. -Right, if I don't stand still.
"Your time is ticking when you are in the lab and are still."
"Your time is ticking when you are in the lab, and is still when you are outside the lab."
So now the 45 seconds are counting down. When you are outside the lab, they are not.
-I can go out? I don't get it. -You can go out.
The time is ticking now. Okay, wait. Wait.
-The time is paused now. No stress. -How long has it been?
-You have 20 seconds left. -No, that's too little. I wasn't talking for that long, David.
It's a clock system. Seconds.
-It was 45 seconds. -Yes, hang on.
You were in here for quite some time. So there's 15 seconds left.
When I read it, it said:
"Your time is ticking when you are inside the lab and are still."
"Inside the lab, AND IS still when you are outside the lab."
And I was standing still there. But okay.
-But the time was ticking then, in the lab. -Yes, but I was standing still.
In 15 seconds, you want to get as many eggs out as possible-
-without touching them, or them breaking.
-I'll go away for a bit. -Yes, yes.
-Where are you going? -I don't know!
-I'm so glad the time is paused. -Now the time has paused.
Does that also apply to my life time?
No, that keeps ticking. We're older with each passing second.
-You have 15 seconds left. -Okay.
Right. What's happening?
[Gina] Ah! The time!
No?
-Do something! -Come on, do something!
Okay, I'm coming now. Are you ready? Here we go.
No, no, no. You can't click yet. I'm coming. I'm here now.
No!
Yes, at least some were intact.
Ten... And eleven.
In this hat, we find eight.
-And in this hat, we find six. -So how many is that?
-I'll have to sit down and add it up. -Good luck.
-You've got your work cut out for you. -Yes, thank you.
Thank you very much!
Christine, it took a bit of time before you got the hang of this task.
Do you know now if you should stand still or move while in the lab?
I thought I was being so smart. "When you are still."
Rippe, what were you waiting for?
All these damn egg tasks have stalked me the entire show.
Eggs aren't my thing. I can make egg nog.
-How many intact eggs did they get? -You won't believe it.
But Rippe rescued a whole 11 eggs. I don't think even he really knows how.
After sitting here figuring things out-
-it's become clear that Christine's eggs numbered 14.
Well counted.
But it would be fun to see if anyone managed to save all the eggs.
-Is that too much to ask? -Certainly not.
Here come the knight in shining armor. Alfred Svensson.
"Your time starts now." Ah! How do you get out?
I'm out.
-I can't touch the eggs, David. -Nope.
-But, for example, a shovel can touch the eggs. -Then you're not touching the eggs.
-Okay? Here I come. -Okay.
-Not yet. I haven't come yet. -No, no. But I'm ready.
I have to think this through. What do I have this for?
-It's pretty. -It could prove useful. Let's go.
No, right. Good.
No! Do they have to be intact?
-I don't give a shit. -My god, what are you doing?!
No egg is intact. I ruined them all.
I wrecked all the eggs.
I thought they were plastic eggs.
I thought they were plastic. How horribly stupid can you get?
I mean, it's so terribly idiotic.
I thought they were ping pong balls.
-Let's see, then. -It's these, then.
Oops! It's ruined.
-Thank you. -Good job. Make new strong ones. [saying; "Ta nya friska tag" = "Make new strong attempts" i.e. attack your next thing with enthusiasm, despite previous failures.]
Yes, Alfred. You probably saved the most eggs from the blender.
And yet, you lost them all.
It's terrifying. How do I manage in my daily life?
If you thought they were plastic, when the first egg...?
-Don't ask. -But the rest are plastic?
I have no answers to your questions. My brain was fried.
What points did they all get here, David?
1 point for Alfred, 2 for Gina, 3 for Rippe, 4 for Christine.
-Tonight's first 5-pointer goes to Olle. -Thank you, thank you.
Now let's take a short break. Those at home will get a little task.
Everyone in your household has to guess who will win this season of "Bäst i Test".
You have until the end of the show. Your time starts now.
You are watching the season finale of "Bäst i Test".
Olle Sarri just took home tonight's first five points.
Now I'm in the mood for something really spectacular.
Oh, oh, Babben. It can't get any more spectacular than this.
Melt-zeer. Is that how you pronounce it?
Yes, you can if you want to, but it's not correct.
-G'day! -G'day.
How fun this is. This is going well. I'm going to nail this.
"Choose a die from the pedestal."
-Oh, there's only one. -So is that the one you'll pick?
-I'm going to finish reading first. -Okay.
"And roll the most spectacular six."
"Before each roll, you must say a new self-pepping phrase"-
-"containing the words six, the six, or sex to make the roll legitimate." ["sex" = six / sex]
"Only your last roll is counted. You have 20 minutes. Your time starts now."
Pick one. How many are there? Yes, it's just this one.
Yes, they had to utter a self-pepping phrase-
-and then roll a six in a spectacular manner.
It can take several attempts to get a six-
-so they had to maintain this spectacularness throughout the task.
So they don't accidentally roll an unspectacular six. Do you follow my thinking, Babben?
Of course. Sometimes I wonder why we don't just replace you with a tape deck.
Cool idea, Babben. Yes, yes.
First out to roll the die are Alfred, Gina, and Christine.
Self-pepping phrase?
Come on, Christine! Don't I look great for my age?
Yes, I've got an idea now, so come with me.
God, this will be good. We're gonna be here by the tree.
-By Francisco's tree. -Yes?
-Will you hit it from there? -I absolutely think so.
There's a cat. Can he join in? Eh.
I will be throwing it. But it will be spectacular that it's always a six.
-15 minutes left. -Yes!
Please lord, let me get a six. Or I will stop performing tricks.
Yes! No, three.
Oh, Christ. That thing about the phrase. Yuck, all this is...
No, it's so silly. It's so lame.
-I don't know what I'm doing. -Are you doing this for nothing?
How did I end up here? Okay.
Little birdie red! It's blue in the song. ["Lilla fågel blå"; Staffan Hellstrand]
That one? Do you want to borrow it?
-You can put it like this to make it a little spectacular. -Oh! What a journey this has become.
-You're sitting on the stool. -The small one? Yes.
Now I'm doing tricks, so I will get a six.
-Bar. -Come on! No!
Okay, new phrase. Phrase? Have I made up this thing about phrases?
Look, look... ["titta" (look) rhymes with "fitta" (pussy), hence the reactions]
This will be fun. Merry Christmas. Urgh!
Who have I become? I don't really understand what I'm doing.
Six! Now! .....No.
Oh, this is so stupid. That cat is psyching me out.
-He's looking up into the woods. -He's ruining everything.
-There's 5.5 minutes left. -Oh.
-You're putting your hat on. -Yes.
The die is here.
Maybe it's smartest to place it with the one facing up.
I'll just place it here so it's more spectacular when thrown.
Roll a six now, Gina. You can do it.
I got a one. But now we know it's doable.
-Should I add a beat? -Yes.
Here we go. Come on. I am Zlatan. [Zlatan Ibrahimovich, Sweden's top footballer]
Hey. Hey. Now. One, two three. Not three.
But four, five? No, not that.
But we will nail a six.
No!
Roll a six now, Gina. You can do it.
It's a one again.
Intro, please.
Little bird red, you're alive and not dead.
Little man on my nose is so excited. Don't be negative.
Christine, you're a six. Not a five or a one.
You're a cool biker babe. Sex, sex, sex!
Roll!
Oh! A six!
-Okay? -Good job.
Roll a six now, Gina. You can do it.
Yay! How fun!
If I do this six times, I'll have a six.
Then you'll have it.
That is... That's it.
-That was quite funky. -I've seen funkier.
Yes, good. Leave.
Yes, this was a little odd, I have to say. Alfred...
-How spectacular did you feel? -I honestly can't speak.
This was the most cringe thing I've not only seen myself do-
-but anyone in the entire world.
That's really something.
Blergh! I got caught up in the phrases and started doing some kind of rap.
-How did it feel to relive it? -Not fun at all!
Christine, can you tell us a little more about this man on your nose? Yes!
I wish I could tell you, but I'm also very surprised!
I'm afraid to ask, but has anyone rolled a more spectacular six than this?
It's not impossible.
One who at least wants to try to be spectacular is Olle.
It would be nice to do something spectacular and get a six immediately.
-Then we would be done. -And me saying something pepping.
It's the same die, even if I adjust it a bit.
-Taping gravel. How smart is that? -I don't know.
-But a little smart. -We will see.
-Okay! -Hello!
Come on, Olle! Give us a six!
You're kidding!
-Six! -There it is.
I'll make like Santa Claus and crawl down.
-No soot. -Good job.
Hey, good checking.
On your first attempt. Nice going, Olle.
-Why did you tape up the die? -To get some weight on the other side.
-That went entirely excellent. -Revealing behind the scenes-footage there.
-But we have one six-thrower left? -Yes.
And it is a person who has been responsible for a lot of spectacular efforts this season.
We all remember the beer-pipe. He pulled Per Fritzell from out of nowhere, with a rope.
He was the only one who got both twins to laugh simultaneously.
Here he is. Jan Rippe.
The world's most spectacular six will now be rolled.
Come on now, little six! You can't become my witch!
No.
Six, six, come here now.
David, don't become my witch.
Help me roll a six!
-No! -But also close.
Now give me a six, so I may grow!
See... Good!
There it is. We have a six. A pretty spectacular one.
The kids call it "epic fail", but eventually you nailed it.
I'm not wasting my time dressing up and cheating with weights.
-There was nothing in the task about that. -No, but it's quite ridiculous.
But that was tough? That wasn't ridiculous.
It was just juggling with myself and the die.
-Not being all... -Ridiculous?
-Jan, you will get 1 point for this. -Yes, yes. I'll take it.
I'm giving 2 points to Christine. That wasn't a proper roll.
But your self-pepping poem raised your score.
-To at least beating Rippe? -Yes, exactly!
3 points for Alfred, who kicked his die high up in the air at first.
4 points for Gina.
There were fireworks, a horned David, and Bruha Knut Francisco. Well done.
But 5 points for Olle, who scored a hole-in-one from the roof.
-Thank you, thank you, thank you. -Let's move on.
Of course we will, Babbinjo. And we will do that with a team task.
For the final time this season, Ellen Bergström will join-
-Rippe and Alfred, forming what no one calls the Dream Team.
In the task, they have to spread wide and far.
-What? -Hello.
-Hello. Are you talking to me? -No, I'm talking to David.
Do I sound like David? Have they altered my voice?
-Am I... Hello? -Hey there.
-Can you hear me? -Yes, I can hear you in the caravan.
-Where are you? -In the shed.
-I'm in the house. -Oh, Christ.
I'm reading: "Form as large a triangle as possible using your positions."
"If you are wearing a blindfold, it has to stay on throughout the task."
"If you are in the caravan, you have to stay there throughout the task."
"Every time someone mentions another team member by name"-
-"ten square meters are deducted from your triangle."
"The team that creates the largest triangle wins."
-"You may not run." -"You have 12 minutes."
-"Your time starts now." -Okay?
They had to spread their team out so they together could form a triangle.
The triangle had to have as large an area as possible.
The problem is that only one of three team members could see anything.
That contestant had to guide the others by being their eyes. What a hoot.
After the break, we will see the teams do their best to travel as far away from each other as possible.
Welcome back. We will see a team task.
Three people have to try and form as large a triangle as possible-
-with the area between their three final positions.
But the teammates are blindfolded.
Otherwise it wouldn't be a task worthy of a season finale.
First out to get as far away as possible from each other are Olle and Christine-
-and team leader Gina.
Should we call ourselves something else, then?
-Okay, you're C. And you're O. -Yes, that makes sense.
-And I'm G. -Yes.
Okay, wait. A triangle. Oh, O can't see anything.
-Aha! But C can see? -No.
C can't see either? Oh, my god. Okay, okay.
What should we do? I couldn't hear.
-We have to make a triangle. -Build one or using ourselves?
O, turn a little to the right and just walk straight forwards.
There could be trees and bushes, but you'll just have to deal.
-But can't you see if there is, G? -Oh, right.
You're about to walk into trees. C has to stand up.
-You're in the hallway. -There's something on the ceiling.
-Your passing the little scarf. -Scarf?
-Yes, or whatever the fuck it's called. -Should I crawl?
No, no. You've tangled yourself up.
-I think I'm about to head into a road. -It's cool. There aren't any cars.
Okay, that sounds safe! There aren't any cars.
-We have to make a triangle or something. -C, there's some stairs coming up.
-Oh! These are the stairs, right? -No, you can walk a bit further.
-There are the stairs. -Yes, I can feel them now.
The rule about not being allowed to run is a good one.
-Do we build a triangle? -C, you're in the bushes.
O, walk a little to the left to a path. From there walk straight forwards.
But, Gin... Oh, that was close.
There's not a hill that I'll roll down?
-No, no, no. -Thank you, Gin...uh, G. G.
I just said Gin.
-O, just walk straight ahead. -Lovely.
Oh Christ, where am I?! There's cars and stuff.
-There's no danger? -No. Just walk forwards a little more, and then I'll ask you to stop.
-O, walk straight forwards. -I'm taking tiny ant-steps.
-Yes, that's great. -Yes.
-C, you can stop now. -Here comes the fence.
-C, you can stop. -Should I go over it?
-Don't let C go over into traffic. -I've gone over the fence.
-C, stand still. -Ten seconds.
-Five, four, three, two, one, zero. -I'm stopping now!
-That was good, right? -What are we doing now, then?
G, can I take this off? Oh!
How cool! Did I walk...? Yes!
Yes, Gina. Did you have full control of both your teammates?
Yes I did, but you have to let people feel their own way a little.
Feel life beat against your face a bit. It turned out good.
For the longest time, you thought you were supposed to build a triangle. You didn't really get it in the beginning.
-I didn't really get it at any point. -Oh!
I thought I was going to fetch something. No one answered me.
I'm not sure she had that much control. Okay, that was one team.
Let's see the team of Rippe guiding Alfred and Ellen.
-Wait, should we decide on code names first? -Yes.
-I am Blue. -Then I will be Yellow.
-And Ellen... -I am Pink.
-Pink, where are you? Hello? -Are you talking to Pink?
-Yes. -Hello, Pink?
-I'm in the shed. -I'm in the house and on my way out.
-Alfred... No! Blue? -Yes, I'm here.
-I'm going to get a tool. -What is Ellen doing?
Or Yellow, Pink...
-You will get a cane for blind people from Pink. -Yes, two.
Now you can walk straight ahead.
Pink? A little more left. Or, sorry.
A little more right and you reach a stone staircase in three meters.
-Oh, no! -The canes are great.
Walk straight ahead, Blue, and you'll get to the house foundation.
Then you can feel the wall and can follow that.
-I'll just walk around it. -Yes.
Pink, can you get in there? Yes, there are some bushes and rubble.
Are there stinging nettles?
No, I can't see any stinging nettles. Just aim your head towards the ground.
There's a lot of foliage. Is there a path?
Now I can hear Ell.. Or ["eller"] someone.
-Are we close to each other? -Yes, yes.
I got the flag caught in something.
Oh! You've tricked me down a hill!
Yes, I don't know. There's foliage.
-But it's in the right direction. -Oh!
Let's work with Yellow now. Or, sorry. Blue.
Blue, walk to where you're pointing now.
-Straight ahead. Blue, left. Great. -Did you forget about me?!
-I'm with you now. -You're only talking to Blue.
-Because now... Now... -Now it's Pink.
-Oh! -Walk carefully, Pink.
-Oh, you can see what I see? -Yes.
Ohhhhh!
There is one minute left.
-Where the fuck am I now, then? -Blue, how is it going out in nature?
I really have no clue. I'm just trying to move forwards.
Stop, stop, stop. There's a fence there.
-You're finished, Pink. Stay there. -Five, four, three, two, one, zero.
-Blue and Pink, very good job. -Good job, Yellow.
-Oh! -Christ, that's bright.
Oh, my god! I wouldn't have dared walking down this even with my eyes wide open.
Yes, Rippe. Was it really so smart, using colours?
-You're colourblind. -Oh, right! That's not great. -Yeah, not great.
It was very confusing, all of it.
-For a while there, you were walking closer to each other. -I could hear Ellen.
-So I turned 180 degrees. -It was good for Rippe that they were a bit self-propelled.
But how far away from each other did these two teams manage to get?
They had to create as big a triangle as possible.
Rippe, with the help of Blue and Pink, created a triangle of 1,513 square meters.
And I've deducted quite a bit for saying each others' names.
Gina and her two sheep managed to gather all of 4,189 square meters.
Wow! Good!
-Were there no deductions for Gina's crew? -Let's see here.
For Rippe, Alfred, and Ellen to have a chance to win this-
-Gina, Christine, and Olle would have had to have said each others' names 268 times.
-They didn't do that. -No, they didn't.
So it's 3 points for Olle, Gina, and Christine. Congratulations. Well done.
What's going to happen now?
May I answer your question with a counter-question, Babben?
What comes before the end, but after the beginning?
It would be the middle.
The middle, yes. Yes, we have arrived at the middle of the show. Exactly.
How... Exactly!
What fun we are about to have.
Middle of the show! Here we go!
Okay, panel.
Have you found that sometimes your answer is so wrong it becomes right?
I mean that the answer is so wrong that it can become right.
Sometimes the answer itself is wrong. For example: oral herpes. You don't want that.
I truly don't understand anything.
How fun! To see you so engaged and interested in right and wrong.
And the rest of you also had some good engagement along the way.
Because it's time to play: "Answer right, answer wrong!"
Yes, we are going to play "Answer right, answer wrong."
Gina Dirawi, please read the task to your fellow contestants, those at home, and the studio audience.
"Give the wrong answer to Babben's questions before your duck takes a bath."
"If you answer correctly, you are eliminated."
"If your duck takes a bath before you answer, you are eliminated."
"Last person standing wins."
I will place a rubber duck on the conveyor belt and blow the whistle.
Babben will ask a question.
You have to answer the question wrong, but within the category.
-Are you ready? -Is your name Olle Sarri?
-Nope. -Correct.
-Is your name Gina Dirawi? -Yes.
-Correct. -God, I'm going to do it wrong!
-Do you love throwing tasks? -Yes.
-Correct. -Nice!
Name a city that's not a capital.
Linköping.
No...
-No, Alfred! -Fuck!
Oh, come on!
-Name an animal that walks on four legs. -Shark.
Correct.
Is it illegal to have a birthday in Germany?
No. I mean, yes. No, I'm just kidding.
-Your first answer was no. You are eliminated. -Yes!
-Are there couches you can sit on? -No.
-Correct. -Nice.
Is the Krona the rarest currency in Sweden?
[Krona is Sweden's currency]
-Yes! -That's right. Correct.
Is Sweden the third smallest country in Scandinavia?
-Yes. -Sorry, that's wrong.
Or it's right, so it's wrong. The correct answer would have been no.
-You have to go down there to the couch. -What?
Name a date when you don't celebrate Lucia. [Saint Lucy's Day, December 13]
-December 24. -Sorry.
-Did I win?! -Yes, you did.
And that is how we play "Answer right, answer wrong."
Yes, wow!
Groovy and fun task once you got this other way round-business.
That it is right and wrong.
-Can you give us the scores? -1 point for Alfred.
2 points for Olle. 3 points for Rippe.
4 points for Christine. And 5 points for Gina Dirawi!
She is best when it matters. A little late, maybe.
This was my plan. Be the worst for nine shows.
And in the finale, show who I really am.
It's not looking too shabby for you. I'll run down the totals quickly.
We've got Alfred on 5 points. Rippe on 7 points.
We have Christine on 13 points, Gina on 14 and Olle on 15.
Gina, you could take this home.
-What will our winner receive tonight? -Wow, wow, wow. Let me tell you.
The winner of the finale show, as tradition demands, will receive a simple tulip.
They will be somewhat overshadowed by the winner of the entire season.
-But a simple tulip isn't too bad. -No, they should be happy with that.
It will soon be time for someone to raise this golden bust over their head.
-But let's go for one more task? -Let's.
Watch out. Here come the memory masters.
-No, not this one. -I don't need this.
-Hello, David. -Hello, Christine!
-Are you going to be over there? -Yes.
Here we go.
"Do all the tasks in all seven waste baskets."
"The tasks must performed in order."
"If you open a waste basket, you must start over from the first waste basket."
This confuses me immediately.
"You may only open a waste basket if you have performed the task from the previous waste basket."
"If you do the wrong task, you must start over from the beginning."
-"Fastest to correctly do all the tasks in order wins." -"You have 30 minutes."
"Your time starts when you understand that David understands that you have understood the task." Okay.
-Have you understood? -No, no, no.
Here, they had to do seven tasks in order-
-without opening the waste baskets to read the tasks.
But how are you supposed to read the instructions, then?
We better take a break so I can explain the task. I've made a sign with all the waste baskets.
See you in a little bit.
You are watching "Bäst i Test". We are in the middle of a, for many, extremely exhausting memory test.
I'm going to show you what it looks like.
They had to perform the tasks in the seven waste baskets in order.
They had to memorize the contents of all the waste baskets.
Because if they forgot and had to steal a peek-
-I honked my horn, and they had to start over from the beginning.
Who will begin to begin again from the beginning?
We will let Rippe and Gina lead the way, as only they can.
-Have you understood that I have understood that you understood? -Yes.
Your 30 minutes start now.
"Put your hand on the waste basket and name a capital you haven't mentioned yet today."
Stockholm.
"Put your hand on the waste basket,"
-"and beat David in rock, paper, scissors on your first attempt."
Copenhagen.
One, two, three.
"Put your hand on the waste basket, scratch your cheek for five seconds, and say:"
"Which one was this, again?"
Beirut.
Rock, paper, scissors.
Which one was this, again?
"Put your hand on the waste basket, and kick the football."
-Lisbon.
One, two, three. There.
Which one was this, again?
-There you go. -What?
If you open the waste basket, I will honk, and you have to start over.
But I've done these correctly. I was supposed to kick the ball.
But you can't right now, because the ball is in there.
"Put your hand on the waste basket, and tell David what you put in there"-
-"before you started this round."
-Okay. -I'll put this in there.
-A camera. -That's what it is, right?
This was the tip of the fishing rod.
-In here, I've put a camera. -Correct.
"Put your hand on the waste basket, and eat a banana."
There.
-You're putting that in there? A camera. -Nicosia.
Rock, paper, scissors. Yes!
Which one was this, again?
-In here, I've put a camera. -Correct.
-I'm getting a lot of hair in my mouth. -Excuse me?
-Hair in my mouth. -Right.
When you open it... You have to start over.
["Give this waste basket to David!"]
-San Marino. -Why not?
-Rock, paper, scissors. -Yes!
Which one was this, again?
-Camera! -True and correct.
So you could possibly finish all seven baskets. Groovy.
I could vomit banana on you.
You will have upwards of four minutes left over.
I'll be here at the finish line ready to receive you.
Can you hear the beating wings of triumph?
Here you go.
Amazing. Good job.
-Nice! -This was the toughest ever.
-And the most fun. -Oh my god, really.
Can you taste the sweet taste of victory?
WOO HOO! She did it!
How many capitals does Canada have?
Ottawa!
[Sounds like "Eight, right?" in Swedish]
With rock, paper, scissors.... I'm screwed.
I lost to David all of 27 times.
And I had to start over, and then all those capitals.
Yes, I noticed the countries kept getting smaller.
How long did they take?
Rippe fought for 26 minutes and 3 seconds. It's edited down slightly.
And Gina finished after 18 minutes and 2 seconds.
Next up to tackle this are two brave testers named Olle and Christine.
-Stockholm. -Nice.
-Berlin. -Rock, paper, scissors. Well, well!
Rock, paper, scissors.
-I did it. -No.
-Yes! -Do you want to read number two again?
-Put the hand! -Can I take the note out?
-That could be comforting. -Rock, paper, scissors!
Which one was this, again? What?!
-You have the note there, right? -No, no, no!
Rock, paper, scissors.
-Tie. -Come on!
Is this the only one you know?
I could have done another one.
Rock, paper, scissors!
-Washington. -Yes.
Rock, paper, scissors!
I'll never make it in time!
-It's been six minutes. -Six minutes? Of 30? This could work. This could work.
It could work!
"Put your hand on the waste basket, and kick the football."
Hell! I should have taken the ball out!
Rock, paper, scissors! Ah!
No, so needlessly far.
Let's go for the next one. Honk, honk! Hi-de-ho!
"Put your hand on the waste basket, and tell David what you put in there"-
-"before you started this round." Exactly.
A small piece of gravel. What?
You didn't place that in this round. That was...
That must have been 10 rounds ago. Maybe 15.
-There. -Try to separate the game from the person.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
What was this?
"Which one was this, again!"
-There's a small pebble in here, David. -Yes.
I've put a rock in the waste basket.
-Not in this round, though? -Nope. Nope. No. No!
-How many capitals does Canada have? -Ottawa.
-They have eight capitals? -Ah! That was a clue!
That I never picked up on.
Which one was this, now?
No, that was it.
I mean, it's somewhat fun, but also very...
-I agree with you. -You understand?
20 seconds left.
-I mean... -No, just take it.
Thank you, David. What a fun task!
Ding, ding, ding. Oh, so stupid!
Really, playing rock, paper, scissors and losing on a tie.
I've never done that before. I hope to never do it again.
You said 27 losses. I don't know how many there were.
There's not that many countries that have capitals.
And just when we think we know how this task works, here comes Alfred.
Oslo. One, two, three.
And we will start over, right? You're truly deranged.
Helsinki. One, two, three. No!
Yes, Berlin. We're working our way south.
One, two, three. Yes!
Peep. Good.
"Which one was this, again?" I've never said that before in my entire life.
Rome. One, two, three. Yes!
Which one was this, again?
-Piss! Vilnius. -Yes.
Which one was this, again?
No, now... Stop. Cut everything. Cancel my participation.
- This won't ever work. I don't know what countries there are. - It's been six minutes.
I'll go slow and methodically. I won't feel ashamed.
The shame is my greatest enemy.
-It's what ruins everything. -Yes, yes.
-Stockholm. -Yes!
One, two, three. Oh! Fucking hell.
Moscow.
One, two, three! NO! Two more.
One, two, three.
This is not possible.
Is there a cheat or something?
-Madrid. -Yes.
Which one was this, again?
Is there something I'm not getting? Is this a nightmare?
Yes!
Wait. Which one was this, again?
There.
Peep into that one. There.
"Put your hand on the waste basket, and kick the football."
I have to get it out. Good.
I put a rock in here.
No!
Ball-creep. I'm about to lose it.
-Pristina. Have I said that? -No, not yet.
There's something called Jerevan.
-Did you place your hand? -[Olle] No, no!
Cape Town.
Khartoum, or whatever the fuck it's called.
Yes! Which one was this, again?
I didn't put anything in there. Oh, I feel goddamned sick.
Which one was this, again?
I put a rock in here.
Tripoli. Good.
Which one was this, again?
-I put a rock in here. -That's right.
What?
-That's... that's enough. -15 seconds.
-Just get this whole shit away from me. -You were right up here.
I should have just given up. This isn't my thing.
New strong ones tomorrow.
But Alfred, you got pretty far. The shame is your worst enemy.
It is. It was like being in hell. Yes, it truly was something very special.
It's 1 point for Olle, Alfred, and Christine.
4 points for Rippe, and 5 points for, hold on to your hats, Gina Dirawi!
What is happening! But don't we have one more task before the finale?
You bet your sweet butt we do, Babbinson Crusoe.
We are going to return to a task we started in the season's very first episode.
Let's refresh our memory on how it looked when our contestants received the task.
"Swear the..." Can I say this in a church?
"Swear the least during the tasks, for f-u-c-k's sake."
"You have all (peep) season."
"Fewest swear words wins so goddamn much."
-"Your time starts now." -Good luck.
Thank you!
-Peace be with you. Sin no more. -Of course. God's grace.
Yes, this task was about swearing as few times as possible-
-during all the tasks they did during this season.
Whoever swears the most times gets the least points, and vice versa.
The priest is here in the audience. Hello! It's going to be extra fun for him to see this.
-How do you think it went? -You and I are at the top.
This could have been a win. Now I'm fucked.
I kept it in moderately well.
Rippe and I each have one. Christine has none.
And too many to count on the sofa. I mean...
It's been apparent many times that someone swore and then caught themselves.
Followed by more swearing. For Alfred, this had the opposite effect.
Every swear word became three.
Who of our contestants swore the most will be apparent in a little bit. See you on the other side.
We are in the home stretch of this season.
We are going to find out how many times our contestants swore during our journey.
Those at home should probably cover the ears of any little ones.
I will prepare the soap. Here comes people with foul mouths.
Here is a potpourri of the swears of this season.
Just rip the shit open.
-No, what the hell? -Fucking hell! Sorry.
Norrköping or... Fuck. Fuck!
-Come the fuck on. -Who the hell... Can't swear. Fuck!
-God da... -Sorry?
I'm so goshdarned stupid.
Here we fucking... Here we sexyporn go.
Hell!
But what the fuck?!
-Hell, so bad! -What the fuck, David?
I've eaten the fucking bunny.
-What the hell! -No, shit.
Shit, how nice. Fuck!
Hell! I should have gotten the ball out!
I can't lose all the things. I need some fucking points!
I've managed barely fucking anything.
Goddamnit, I never want to hear about this shit again.
-That's the spirit. -Damn! -Shit, you're such a nag.
Fuck that, then.
What the fuck is this?
So goddamn good!
-Hey, hey! -Shit.
-No, it's fucking timed. -What the hell!
-What the fuck are you talking about? -I lost my head phones. Fuck.
No, no. Fuck that. Get the goddamn soft air gun.
I'm so sick of these fucking sticks that never work.
Ah, fuck! Hell!
Hell! What a fuckin bang.
Shit, I... Fuck! No! David, you pig. You fucking swine.
You fucking swine. I swore again. I can just leave this piss house.
Satan's asshole.
-Was it cheating? -There's no cheating.
Shit... I mean, wow, how nice.
ONE swear?
Oh, oh, oh. This was not graceful. Alfred and Gina, it was mostly you two.
-Totally insane. -Rippe, you had a few slip through.
-Should I blame you, David or the tasks? -David, I think.
-Olle, how did you manage to only swear one single time? -I'm sorry about that.
Wow, wow, wow.
-You have a somewhat evangelical aura. -Thank you, thank you.
-What weather we're having, right? -Yes.
How many swear words did we get?
And how are the last important points divided before the finale?
The contestants are separated into two groups.
One group gathered a total of seven swear words.
And the other group gathered a total of 91 together.
Rippe and Christine swore three times each.
-Olle swore one single time during the entire season. -It's unfathomable.
One person swore 38 times.
-And one person swore 53 times. -Oh my god. I can't bear it.
The person who was worst in this task was, without a doubt, Alfred.
Oh, so good!
1 point for Alfred. 2 for Gina. 4 each for Rippe and Christine.
5 points goes to the saintly and innocent Olle Sarri!
Innocent.
The scores now... Shared first place.
-Olle and Gina have 21 points each. -Here's the five.
Tonight's winner will receive a simple tulip.
Right before we crown the season's winner.
The big deal is who gets to lift my golden bust above their head.
But remember, now: everything can happen, and everything can turn.
-Because now it's time for the season finale. -[Gina] Oh my god.
We have arrived at the finale. Gina, pass the task down to Rippe.
-We are allowed to help, right? -I'm ripping it now.
"Stand up after 100 seconds. Closest to 100 seconds wins."
"Your time starts on David's signal."
The deal is to sit in peace and quiet.
And then stand up when you think 100 seconds have passed.
Are you ready? Let's go!
The clock is ticking.
And what a season we have had.
It is of course the tenth season. For eight years we've been doing this.
We all remember Rippe pulling out 21 bricks from the high tower.
Alfred pulled 25, but only five ended up being relevant.
For the first time ever, someone got a minus score.
Christine got nine minus points when she refused to eat the chocolate bunny.
You have played Task-Lotto where we picked three balls-
-from these three bowls to create three unique tasks. Exciting.
Rippe tossed a pancake 2 meters and 78 centimeters up in the air.
But it wasn't really a pancake. It was more like a ball.
Olle turned robot-David on with only 23 hundreths of a second to spare.
You peeked under three cloches and had to solve an equation: 123 x 9.
-Oh, fuck it! -Gina is standing up.
-Christine has stood up. -Olle has risen.
Only Rippe and Alfred are left.
Now, the thing we were afraid of seems to have happened.
-Cool like a violin. -And Rippe enters the game. ["fiol" (violin) rhymes with "cool"]
Come back here and we will see how that went.
Yes, what an exciting and groovy finale we got here, in the finale of the finale.
Let's hand out some points.
Rippe sat for 143 seconds. 1 point.
Then there was one who stood up after 128 seconds. Alfred, 2 points.
One person rose up after 106 seconds. Olle, 3 points.
One stood up after 103 seconds.
4 points for Christine. Only three seconds away.
Gina? 98 seconds. 5 points!
If we quickly add this up before moving on to the big one.
-We find Alfred on 9 points. -Someone has to be there.
We've got Rippe on 16 points and Christine on 22 points.
Olle, you have 24 points.
And on 26 points. Tonight's winner: Gina Dirawi!
-Nice. Congratulations. -Gosh!
-A simple tulip. Here you go. -Damn, I've worked hard for this!
Who wins the entire season will be made clear in a little bit.
But let us keep ourselves and the public on tenterhooks-
-while I tell you that we will already be back next Friday-
-with a loaded special episode with five previous champions-
-fighting it out to be crowned the Champion of Champions.
Then you will, among other things, see this...
Here they are!
-Erik Ekstrand! -The brain, the brain, the brain!
-Bianca Kronlöf! -Hard pipe at navel height.
-Clara Henry! -I should have put my hair up.
-Linnéa Wikblad! -Daddy! Blergh, that felt sexual.
-And Olof Wretling! -There are a lot of tasks in the ceiling.
Okay, here we go. Next!
-Win every time! Good job. -Damnit, David!
They are the best of the best. We will see you in the future.
That is going to be a lot of fun, but now the time has come.
-Who will win the entire season? -Oh, good lord.
We will take the scores from all the episodes up until now.
-And we can then see that... -The past is of no consequence.
157 points in total. You end up in an honorable fifth place.
In fourth place and on 180 points, we find Jan Rippe.
Not far from there, 186 points.
And a groovy third place to Christine Meltzer!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Then only Olle and Alfred remain, quite simply.
With only a few points difference. It could have been different.
Alfred has already gone into a fetal position. Do this now!
Well you see, it's like this...
-Olle, you have 198 points. -Thanks, thanks.
Alfred, you got 190...
-Period. -NO!
This means that Olle Sarri wins this season...
-...and is best in test! -Thank you, Alfred.
Olle, you have earned the right to lift Babben's bust above your head.
Huge congratulations.
So what have we learned tonight? Well, it's dumb to swear.
Not all sixes are spectacular. And Olle Sarri is best in test.
We have our winner, but in a week we will see five more. See you then.
Good night!
-I was so scared. -Congratulations!
