Task brief

The actual text of the task brief is not known. The text below is paraphrased based on information disclosed in the episode:

There is a spinning wheel over there.

The goal is to eliminate each other.

You do that by throwing darts, one at a time, and hitting someone's face.

The person who is hit loses a 'life', and has to remove a heart from their chest.

If you don't hit anyone, you yourself lose a life.

If you miss the entire wheel, or hit Bård, in the middle, you lose three lives, and have to sit down.

Task notes

  • The contestants are lined up along the back of the stage, each with three golden heart-shaped stickers on their chest.
  • To the right of the stage, there is a rotating wheel with all of their portraits attached to it, and Bård's portrait in the centre.
  • A short distance in front of the wheel is a table with darts on it.
  • As each contestant is eliminated, they get to choose who throws next.

Attempts

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

  • As the person currently in last place, Hani throws first. Her first dart hits an empty space on the board, losing her one heart. Her second dart hits Lars' face, so he loses one heart. After Karin eliminates herself from the game, she choses Hani to throw seventh. Again, Hani's first dart hits an empty space, leaving her with just one heart. Unfortunately, the same also happens with her second dart, so she eliminates herself from the game somewhat anticlimactically.
  • Lars throws second, and aims to hit Hani's face in revenge, but hits Bård's portrait instead, instantly eliminating himself from the game.
  • After Lars is eliminated, he chooses Leo to throw third. Leo's dart hits Vidar's portrait, so Vidar loses one heart. Leo is brought back into the game to throw fifth, after Vidar hits his portrait. He immediately gets his revenge by hitting Vidar's face with his dart, eliminating him from the game. Leo ultimately wins the game, after Karin and Hani eliminate themselves.
  • Vidar throws fourth, after Leo hits his portrait. He aims for Leo's face in revenge, and just misses it with his first dart (losing one of his own hearts), but hits the target with his second, so Leo loses one heart. He is subsequently eliminated from the game after Vidar hits his portrait once more.
  • After Vidar is eliminated, he chooses Karin to throw sixth. She aims for Leo's face on the wheel, but hits Bård's portrait instead, eliminating herself from the game immediately.
