• Amir very much misunderstands the task, or has very low self-esteem, and so asks if there is anyone in the audience who likes him. Since pretty much everyone puts their hands up, he earns last place.
• Einar asks if anyone in the audience has a phone number ending in ‘16’. Since four people put their hands up, he earns fourth place.
• Steinar asks if there is anyone in the audience who has turned 25 today, leading just one person to puts their hand up. Since he was tied with Solveig for first place, the pair compete in a second round, as a tie-breaker. In this second round, Steinar asks if anyone in the audience has size 48 shoes, in response to which just one member of the audience eventually raises their hand. Steinar therefore wins the task.
• Solveig observes that there are about 200 people in the audience, so uses her phone to search for results to the query “1 in 200 Norwegians have…”. From the results, she learns that about 1 in 200 Norwegian have a genetic defect leading to familial hypercholesterolemia, so she asks the audience if that applies to anyone there. Backing up the research, just one person raises their hand. Since Solveig was then tied with Steinar for first place, the pair compete in a second round, as a tie-breaker. In this second round, Solveig asks if anyone in the audience was born with hip dysplasia, leading two people to raise their hands. Desperate to win, Solveig asks whether the second person is absolutely sure, because “it can be misdiagnosed”. She ends up in second place. After the task, she apologises for celebrating the audience members’ genetic defects, and wishes them well.
• Ida asks if anyone is the audience is wearing a top with large pink flowers on it (having presumably already spotted someone to whom this exact description would apply). After two people raise their hands, she earns third place.
