Here's a description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to add later!

  • Ana brings in her daughter's unicorn bank, which still has a bit of money inside. Ivan awards it five points.
  • Before revealing his item, Enio reveals that he wanted to bring in his mother (the implication being that his mother is an angel), but was told that people were not allowed to be used for the show's prize tasks. Instead, Enio brings in a scarf for the Hajduk Split, a Croatian football club. He says the scarf symbolises that the football club is so big, it has wings that cover the entire country (conveniently forgetting a rival football club, which presumably is headquartered where the studio segments are recorded). After a lengthy semi-serious argument over football club superiority, Ivan awards it one point.
  • Igor brings in sanitary pads with adhesive wings on them. Both Ana and Lidija are impressed and upset, as both had considered bringing in the same item for the task. When Lidija challenges Igor on his claim that sanitary pads are the best thing to him, he counters that they are, indeed, the best, because they indicate that his girlfriend is not pregnant. Ivan awards him two points.
  • By now, Ivan has caught on to Lidija's love of food, so when she challenges him to guess her prize, he responds that she has brought food, which she has (specifically, a box of chicken wings). Ivan awards her three points.
  • Ante brings in a toy called a 'clacker', which is a wooden bird mounted on wheels. Presumably, when the wheels turn, it causes the wings to flap. He explains that in Split (his hometown), this toy is purchased on Saint Domnius day, and he finds the fact that so many children had them (but he never did) quite irritating. Ivan awards him four points.
