• Anders did not understand the rules. In the studio, he explains that he thought it was like paper doll books, where pieces of paper were layered on top of each other to create various outfits, which would explain why each piece of paper had one item drawn on each (for example, a shirt on one piece, a pipe on another, a pair of glasses on another, etc). When the pieces of Anders' drawing are laid on top of each other, it does make a somewhat recognisable portrait of Lasse. Anders earns last place.
• Mahamad brings in a portrait of Lasse from elsewhere in the house for reference, and uses his phone to take a picture of the number grid so he does not have to keep flipping between pages to figure out what to draw on each piece of paper. However, his completed portrait is a mess in the studio. Mahamad earns fourth place.
• Annika brings in a pillow with Lasse’s face on it for reference, and draws a small version of it on the number grid that she later references to replicate on the larger sheets of paper. Overall, Annika’s completed portrait isn’t bad, but there are a few places where she has forgotten that the paper would be turned around. Annika earns second place.
• If Neel has a reference picture of Lasse, it is not shown. She does draw a small version of Lasse’s face on the number grid that she later references to replicate on the larger sheets of paper. She lays the easel on the ground so she can keep both hands free and just focus on the drawing (instead of having to hold up many large sheets of paper). Neel’s drawing is, as Lasse eventually says, clearly the best, as not only has she drawn a decent cartoon version of Lasse, but she managed to make sure the drawing on every page was orientated correctly. Neel wins the task.
• Jakob realises that while the task dictates that he cannot remove the sheets of paper from the board, that they do not forbid Mark from doing so. He has Mark remove the sheets of paper, and sets them up outside in the order they would be orientated when the picture is put together. This takes a bit of time, as it is windy outside. After securing all of the pages on the ground, Jakob quickly draws before his time runs out. In the studio, Jakob’s picture has several pages without any drawings on them; Mark reveals that Jakob accidentally placed a few sheets the wrong way up when he was setting up his canvas. Jakob earns third place.
