A member of the production team revealed that after completing his attempt at this task, Pär left the lab and immediately figured out a better solution (the one used by Klas). Frustrated with himself, Pär then jumped up to punch some curtains hanging in the room outside lab, unaware that they were covering a metal door frame. He ended up smashing his head on the metal frame and cutting his forehead open, and had to be sent to a doctor to be stitched up. He then returned to the house just four days later to complete some more tasks.
