• Live guesses that she'll complete the task in 1 minute. She is not tricked into assuming that she must throw from the line marked on the ground, instead shooting from immediately below the basket. She apparently misses the part of the instructions about the three baskets having to be consecutive, though. Her first two throws go through the net, but the third and fourth miss. When she gets the bun through the net one more time, she thinks she has completed the task, but has actually only gotten back up to one again. Feeling pleased with herself, she asks Olli how long she took, and discovers that the clock is still running. Olli asks her if she scored three-in-a-row, and she realises her error. She has another go, and manages to get three-in-a-row after 5 minutes, securing third place due to the non-completion of the task by Martha and Espen.
• Henriette guesses that she will complete the task in 1 minute and 10 seconds. She is not tricked into assuming that she must throw from the line marked on the ground, instead shooting from immediately below the basket. She apparently misses the part of the instructions about the three baskets having to be consecutive, though. Her first throw goes through the net, but the second misses. When she gets the bun through the net twice more, she thinks she has completed the task, but has actually only gotten up to two-in-a-row. She insists that she completed it because she used the same bun, but Olli does not stop the clock, so she re-reads the task, finding the relevant clause about the baskets having to be consecutive. She has another go, and manages to get three-in-a-row after 3 minutes and 50 seconds, securing second place due to the non-completion of the task by Martha and Espen.
• Martha makes the mistake of assuming that the line marked on the ground is where she must throw the bun from. She guesses that she will complete the task in 2 minutes. Unsurprisingly, she has difficulty landing the bun in the basket from such a distance, and several end up on the roof of the garage. She apparently thinks that the time she had chosen for herself at the start was a hard limit, as she stops throwing bun when she thinks 2 minutes have passed and heads back inside the house, despite Olli telling her that the clock is still running. She therefore receives zero points.
• Espen is quick to identify that the task brief does not say anything about the line marked on the ground, so he can throw from wherever he likes. He guesses that he will complete the task in 2 minutes. He shoots from below the basket and manages to get two in in quick succession. He then kills time, waiting for the clock to get closer to his 2 minute prediction, before trying to score again. Of course, he then misses the third shot, and has to start over, with no time left, missing approximately five times before he gets the bun through the net again. It then becomes apparent that he also missed the part of the instructions that specified the baskets had to be consecutive, as he stops after scoring once. Convinced that he has completed the task, he heads back inside the house, ignoring the fact that Olli says the clock is still running. He therefore receives zero points.
• Before Kristoffer's attempt is shown, Live predicts his exact strategy, and is visibly frustrated about it. Kristoffer guesses that he will be able to complete the task in just 30 seconds, and then fetches a ladder and uses that to raise himself up to the net so he can just drop the bun in without any risk of missing. He then carefully spaces his 'shots' out, so he can finish as close to 30 seconds as possible (just 72 hundredths of a second out, according to Olli). Back in the studio, Live can be heard screaming, and ends up curled up in a ball in front of her seat. Kristoffer unsurprisingly earns first place in the task for his smart strategy.
