"Finale"
It's time for the finale at Drammen's theatre.
The past nine weeks have been grand.
A beautiful bouquet of contestants has stuck together through it all.
Solved tasks to the best of their abilities. Or ability.
The contestant with the highest score will be crowned the winner today.
I'm looking forward to it. I'm sure you are too, Olli Wermskog.
Yes.
Today is very exciting. It's the final.
A lot of points will be handed out. Nothing is for sure.
That's right. Next, we'll take a look at the prize for this season's winner.
Something I dread to part with, but those are the rules.
A bust in gold of me.
There it is.
And in the studio, ready to fight to their final breath
with everything they have:
Snorre Monsson.
Amalie Stuve.
Anne Marit Jacobsen.
Abu Hussain.
And Alex Rosén.
Do you want me to move the bust into place for you?
Yeah, go ahead. Move it,
and I'll take care of the small talk.
We haven't seen before, Atle, that you're a little bald on the back.
Yeah! - It's a production error.
Here we go. There you are.
Snorre, you've got your foot on the finish line.
But Amalie and Abu are breathing down your neck.
There's 5 points between first and third place.
What do you think, Monsson?
I'm thinking it depends on the points I get on this show.
You have, unlike everybody else, understood the rules.
If you add up what you get today, you get a total
that hopefully gets you the most. That's good thinking.
It's time for tasks for the last time this season.
Let's jump to the prize task.
It's time for the very last prize task.
The contestants will show you things in a category that you've given them.
This episode's category is... Drum roll, Olli.
Bring something that's been inside you.
It could be a lot of things. We'll start with you, Snorre.
Life has its high peaks.
And low valleys.
May I suggest low lows? - Low lows, yes!
You lose a lot in life.
In 2022, I lost four things
that were very close to me.
I brought my wisdom teeth.
They look great. - I thought they were good souvenirs.
Looks like they came from an 80-year-old guy.
That's not... - Full house!
Lovely stuff. So you don't have a big enough mouth for them?
No. I've got quite a small mouth. - I can see that now.
So they got removed early. They're too much.
You've brought enough. You can remove them from the floor.
They might even be a prize. You're in for a treat.
Yes! - Yay!
Amalie! What have you got?
Something that's been inside me is...
Have you slept with him?
Thank you.
What a round of applause!
My boyfriend couldn't make it.
So that's the ex? - It's the ex.
Nice to meet you.
Cool! He's great.
That was a quite the start.
No questions needed. - There's no need for that.
Next, we'll see Anne Marit's ex.
What... Now, I'm afraid to ask you, Anne Marit.
What did you bring that's been inside you?
What's... - A bone?
It's a fish bone. - A fish bone?
It's not small. - Isn't it beautiful?
Yes, it's really nice, but... - It's been inside me.
It's been inside you? That must've been very uncomfortable.
No, quite nice, really.
But, nice? There's no way you got this...
I use it as a toothpick.
Oh!
Natural. Not plastic, not wood. Nothing gets stuck. I recommend it.
You need quite a gap in your teeth to make that work.
I do! - Great. Beautiful. Thank you.
Alex, what did you bring that's been inside you?
I brought a lot of glass.
It's a lot of glass. I had an accident when I was seven.
I ran through a door.
There's glass. I cut my back open.
Cut my back open, punctured my lung, severed my kidneys, pierced my liver.
The last piece of glass was a millimetre away from my heart.
If it had pierced my heart, I'd be dead.
So I brought the glass they removed during surgery. Old glass.
Another story from your life. - I got 170 stitches.
Is this true? - Yes.
Do you have proof? - Yes.
It was unbelievable. Behind me was a doctor.
She saw the whole accident and stopped the bleeding and stuff.
If she hadn't been there, I wouldn't be here today.
I don't mind proving it. - Yeah, prove it.
Oh, my god. He's taking everything off.
I think it's showing there. - Yeah, there's no doubt.
There's supposed to be scars there. - Oh, my god!
The story is true, guys!
I once met a Thai fortune-teller.
She said, "You are invincible. You are marked by a V."
And if you looked at that scar, it's a V, for victory!
Just another day in Alex Rosén's life.
I have to say, this is some cool stuff. Abu?
I had surgery a few years ago,
where I lost a huge part of me. It's been with me for many years.
And...
I knew I would miss it, so I kept it.
I had stomach surgery. So brought my stomach with me. [he had 80% of his stomach removed to combat his obesity]
The stomach? - The stomach?
Wow! Oh, boy.
Is that what it looks like? - What it looks like inside me.
This whole decision about putting your own stomach in alcohol.
That's quite unique. You can still compete with Rosén.
I won't show anything. I won't take my shirt off.
We got... - We got many good options.
This is difficult. - It's not easy.
It's only gonna be 1 point for your wisdom teeth, Snorre.
I think you can see why. - Yeah. Someone brought their stomach.
Yes! Well summed up. Anne Marit, I'll give you 2.
Okay.
Alex, I'll give you 3.
I... It was very interesting and funny.
I'm gonna give Abu 5, and you 4, Amalie.
Beautiful. Well done.
You know what I love, Olli? - No.
My favourite thing is when it's raining balls.
Oh, yeah! But that's impossible. It can't rain balls.
We'll have to make our own rain. - And we have.
Hi, Olli! - Hi!
It's one of those start buttons.
Wow. Green button.
"Gather balls in the fountain. The task starts when you press the button."
"The task ends after two minutes."
"Most balls in the fountain wins."
"Blue and yellow balls." Where are the balls?
I don't get it. Where are the balls?
We have plenty of time. The task won't start until I press the button.
We can take all the time we need.
I don't know what I'm doing. Should I go look for some balls?
Can you find any? - I just got here.
There's something there.
Olli. Is there a bunch of yellow and blue balls in there?
I don't know. - You're lying.
Is that bag full of balls?
Okay.
It's a good idea to read the letter and look around. Do some planning.
Like we've just seen Abu and Snorre do. That's clever.
There's a significant amount of balls hidden on the roof.
There's a button on the ground.
There might be a connection between the button and the balls.
You won't notice that if you press the button right away.
We don't have anyone here who wouldn't read the letter?
No? And just press the button. I don't think we do.
Not one of them? - Of those?
Who don't think and just do? - No, no! Nobody does that.
No! Why don't we have a look?
That's one of those that you press? - Yes.
It says here that the task begins when I press the button.
Isn't there anyone responsible for health and safety?
Balls just rolled everywhere.
I'm not in charge of that, you have to speak with Atle.
Can you press it for me? - Sure.
Now press it. Now!
Gosh, so many balls. So many came!
Five seconds left. Three, two, one. There.
Happy? - I'm always happy.
Five, four, three, two, one.
There.
Four, three, two, one.
Not bad! Bye. - Bye.
We could predict that Amalie would press the button,
but that you were gonna do it, Alex?
I just saw the button and thought, "Push it!"
So you were thinking? It was a conscious act?
If I see a button, I'm keen on pushing it.
There's a reason why there's few of them around us now.
This was shocking, but you questioned the safety, Amalie.
You've never been hit in the head with 360 balls before?
No.
It was dramatic. - Yeah.
But despite a lack of planning and strategy,
you all managed to get quite a few balls into the fountain.
I can tell you that we've witnessed third to fifth place.
Anne Marit got 58 balls. Amalie got 62.
And Alex got 82. That's not half bad.
No, despite a lack of letter reading.
Which means we're now moving over to the major leagues.
It's going to be a ball rain duel between two giants.
In a world of few ball rain athletes, you can use that description.
Let's take a look at Snorre and Abu.
It'd be nice to have a wall, so they'd land in the fountain.
Like this. That's nice.
A little closer. There you go.
Where should I put this?
Yeah. And then I'm gonna catch the balls with these.
Yeah...
It worked! Yes!
Five, four, three, two, one. There.
Tired? - A little.
Five, four, three, two, one. There.
I'll count then. Bye.
Snorre, you put up a net,
which is perhaps the most frequently used ball catching device in history.
And yet you still exhibit a delighted surprise that it works.
Not bad.
You have no idea how much adrenaline fills your body, Atle,
when there's all these balls coming at you.
It's a whole different feeling. And you get happy!
Fired up! - You get happy!
Good. We already know we have the winners of gold and silver,
but who's who?
You're asking me? - No, I'm trying to build tension.
It got really exciting. - Snorre got 107, and Abu got 193.
That could be a new world record.
Last place, 1 point to Anne Marit. Fourth place to Amalie.
Third place to Alex, second place to Snorre and the win goes to Abu.
And the total score is...
It's going fast, but the scores are pretty even.
Now it's time for commercials. We'll be right back.
It's entertaining to do ball tasks like this. Do we have more?
Let's see. Yes! We have one more ball task left in the season.
In the lab. Is that of interest? - Yes.
Then we'll have a look at that.
Right. I figured. Balls.
Hey. - Hey.
They're going in there? - Who knows?
"Get the most balls from 'this' bottle to 'that' bottle."
"You can't touch the balls with your hands."
"Most balls in 'that' bottle after five minutes, wins."
Alex, sometimes I feel like you're a parody of yourself.
Welcome to the club.
You weren't that surprised yourself. - You have to test before you read.
And you uncovered the challenge. There's a hole in the bottom.
Your task is to get the most balls from 'this' to 'that' bottle,
without touching the balls with your hands.
And there are holes in the bottle called 'this', as Alex demonstrated.
It also said on the bottle that it shouldn't be lifted.
We don't have the most attentive group this season.
Not for this season, either.
Where should we start? - Let's start with Abu and Alex.
Awesome! It's loud and doing its thing.
All you have to do is close that up.
There you go.
Holy shit. There's a hole in the other one too!
It's about getting... I can't even touch those.
I didn't drop that many.
I'm happy. Thank you for having me. - Bye.
You did a good job of checking before you started. That helped.
A little bit. Lost a few though.
It was a really neat construction. Not that many balls went to waste.
That was a bit tricksy. Both bottoms had holes.
Alex, you're not making it that easy. Actually, you are making it easy.
I'm gonna have to disqualify you. - No? Why?
You weren't suppose to touch them. - I didn't touch them.
Shall we have a look? You might not have noticed that we were filming.
We could do a little rerun in slo-mo, just to rub it in.
What's going on here then?
Oh, boy. What do you think now?
That's just adding some support, in my opinion.
It's a shame, but that's how it is.
We'll have a look at the rest now. - Yeah, we are.
Yeah. That's not gonna work.
"...the balls from 'this' to..."
That's fucking shitty.
How did I not think of that before?
Holy shit!
I'm sure you've...
Five, four, three, two, one. There.
Yeah. Anne Marit. - That's so stupid!
So incredibly stupid!
Good thing you threw the ball after your time was up,
otherwise you'd been disqualified.
Amalie, fantastic job. - Thank you.
You're making some sort of dispenser system.
It's borderline engineering, isn't it, Olli?
Snorre? There's going to be quite the commotion.
You often have things in order, but not this time.
You don't feel clever when you see there's a hole in both bottoms.
And then it flips over as well.
But despite all that, it didn't turn out half-bad.
No. I can start at the bottom.
You've been counting balls as if your life depended on it?
Counted Alex's too, despite the disqualification.
You had 220. That was pretty good.
Anne Marit had 69 balls.
That wasn't a suggestion.
Anne Marit just woke up!
That's a record in ball catching.
Snorre, you had 250 balls. Amalie had 288.
And Abu had 345.
So that's 5 points to Abu.
This is a bit sad to say,
but it's time for the seasons very last commercial break.
Olli, can you switch over to commercials for me?
Yeah. Commercials it is. - Thank you.
Olli, we both appreciate good old-fashioned service.
Oh, yeah. I've always been fond of good service.
And you've tested this group's ability to provide good service.
Yes, and I'll tell you all about it. Actually, we can look at it.
We can look at it. - Yeah, we can.
Hi, Olli. - Hey.
Should I open the letter now? - Yeah, you can do that.
"Serve Olli this lunch. Olli is allergic to grass."
"You can't at any point step on the grass."
"If you touch the grass, the task is over."
"Fastest lunch delivery wins. Your time starts now."
Olli? - Yes!
Down there. What?
I'll be right there!
Anne Marit, you'll be right there. Will you be there fast enough?
That's the big question. It's about serving lunch the fastest.
But you're not allowed to touch or step on the grass.
Pretty clear rules.
It was supposed to be. Let's have a look at this.
So you can't step on the grass on the way over?
He's not supposed to touch me. I have a grass allergy too.
Strange place to have your breakfast.
Are you walking on the grass? - I am.
You're allergic? So am I, and nothing's happening to me.
Two negatives make it a positive.
Thank you.
Was that a good idea, Abu? - Maybe not.
You're simply denying the existence of the task.
Or the foundation of the task. Everything in the letter is a lie.
It was bad service. I had a bad day.
A bad day, hour, or five minutes.
You refuse to deal with the fact that you can't step on the grass.
Two wrongs don't make a right for this task.
It pays to adhere to what's in the letter.
That's cleared up the rules.
Shall we look at the other four? - Yes, let's do that.
Maybe just throw stuff and hope something hits Olli?
I'll try one of these, just to see.
No. Don't eat it, Olli! It's got a lot of grass on it.
These were quite convenient.
It's almost lunchtime!
There.
Then we'll put it in here. All of it.
That and the salad.
The newspaper is important. Need something to read.
We don't have much time. This will be delicious.
I'll be right there, Olli!
Are you hungry? - Starting to be, yeah.
I promise you there won't be any grass.
And then he just has to...
You dip the coffee.
You dip the bread rolls and the salad in the other stuff.
Here we go. A complete breakfast.
Breakfast! Breakfast is here!
This is downright humiliating.
Not a clever solution. Just frustrating for me.
Where's the food? - Coming now.
Then we go out here. Here's gravel all the way.
Here comes lunch.
Let's see. You'll have lunch soon.
That's great.
Are you hungry? - Yes.
Here it is!
There you go!
Bye. - Bye.
A delivery for Olli Wermskog. Breakfast stew.
Bon appétit.
Here we go.
Congratulations. - Thank you.
There. - Thank you.
There you go. Bye.
Must be demotivating to be tottering down on boards and chairs,
and keeping the lunch intact, only to be surpassed by Anne Marit,
who shovels everything in a bag and throws it in Olli's lap.
I've rarely seen you as focused as you were on this task, Alex.
It was clear that I wasn't supposed to walk on the grass.
Was it?
It was a very laborious and tricky way to get there.
You went all in. - Yeah, but I got down there.
It looked like you were stepping on the grass, but it was a rock.
Yeah, it was a rock. - So dedicated and focused.
Occasionally.
Anne Marit, you became a sort of film character.
You call that a film character? What sort of character?
I didn't say it was a good film. But excitingly delivered.
Snorre's version was more environmentally friendly.
Is the generational divide being demonstrated here?
Generational divide.
My hometown has the same name, so a little joke there.
You should've said that first. - Unfortunately, yes.
You might want some numbers?
We can start with last place.
Is Abu disqualified? You didn't say, but I assume so.
It was in the cards. - Huh?
"What's the task? Wow, do whatever you want!"
The rules are important.
I totally agree, but you didn't say earlier.
Amalie, you spent 18 minutes. Alex, you spent 9 minutes.
Snorre, 6 minutes. Anne Marit, 5 minutes and 5 points.
Very good. - Beautifully done!
That's fantastic. - And in total...
In total today, Abu in the lead, Snorre and Amalie in second.
It's actually incredibly close.
Shall we have a look at the season totals?
It's close! - It's exciting now, Atle.
It's time for the very last task of the season.
Which is, as always, the task in the studio. Places, dear friends.
It's time for the very last task.
You guessed it, we'll be playing "Second Last Troll Out of the Box."
You're sitting in separate boxes, right?
Yes. - Good.
It's about jumping up second-to-last, shouting "ta-da",
and flinging your arms out to the side.
Put on the noise cancelling headphones when I tell you to.
Whoever jumps up second-to-last gets five points.
Whoever jumps up last will get zero points.
Ready? - Yes.
Three, two, one. Here we go.
Exciting.
Ta-da!
Ta-da! No!
Ta-da! - Hello.
Come on!
Ta-da!
No!
One second!
So, we have a winner for this task,
but we need to find out who has won this season.
Let's take a seat and have a look.
I was at the edge of my seat, Olli.
I'll repeat the scores, for those who haven't seen them.
Alex, you jumped up last. Zero. - Thank you.
Anne Marit, you went first. 2 points.
Amalie got 3, Snorre got 4, and Abu got 5. Congratulations.
Let's have look.
With those points noted, we can check who won today's show.
It was Abu!
Beautifully done. Congratulations on winning the show.
But stay seated as we'll now announce the winner of this season.
The season was weird and exciting. It's been a close race.
Olli, are you ready? - I'm ready. Are you ready?
Yes. Are the contestants ready? - Yes.
Is the audience ready? - Yes!
Are you ready at home?
Not a word, as usual! It is what it is.
The winner of season 11 is...
Snorre Monsson!
By one measly point! Snorre Monsson.
It doesn't get any closer than that.
Snorre Monsson, I am honoured to present this to you.
Well deserved.
Thanks to all our panellists for great entertainment.
Thanks to Olli, who's been looking after the gang.
Thank you so much for watching this season.
See you next season. Take care! - Bye!
