Attempts

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

  • Enio brings in a single toothpick, and declares that it's so pointy, you can find anything in your teeth, even if you hadn't eaten anything. When Ivan expresses shock that Enio would only bring in a single toothpick, Enio counters that he can't earn below a single point, and he only had one toothpick. Enio earns fourth place.
  • Ante brings in a copy of the board game Mikado (also known as 'pick up sticks' or 'bits and pieces'). Ivan argues that like Enio, Ante has just brought in toothpicks. Ante earns third place.
  • Ana brings in a single high-heel shoe. In the studio, Enio points out that the heels that Ana is wearing are sharper than her prize heel, because they left a hole in the carpet under her chair. She earns last place, because she didn't bring in a pair of heels.
  • Igor brings in a sword “on steroids”. It seems to be a decorative sword instead of one intended for actual combat. Igor wins the task.
  • Lidija brings in an eyeliner pencil. Her prize is backed up by Ana and, surprisingly, Luka. Lidija earns second place, as Ivan is impressed by how Lidija continues to use it (i.e. it accentuates her beauty).
