Task notes

A significant portion of the screen time given to this task is dedicated to Linda attempting – and failing – to actually read the second task brief aloud.
After the second task brief is finally read in its entirety by Thomas, Lasse clarifies that the contestants have 30 seconds each to throw their paper aeroplanes.
The contestants’ placements are based on their in-game scores (i.e. the one with the highest in-game score earns 5 points, and the one with the lowest in-game score earns 1 point).
