Kongen befaler

Yes!

No.

"I just have to piss"

A warm welcome to Kongen Befaler

and the Drammen theatre,

also known as 'the Dream theatre'.

Why is it called 'the Dream theatre'?

Because this is the only place where

it is possible to achieve the dream of winning...

a bust in gold of me.

Yes.

And by my side sits the man of your dreams,

if bearded men with Finnish ancestry,

tape measures and stopwatches are your cup of tea:

Olli Wermskog. - Thank you.

Beautiful words.

We will not dwell on this beautiful moment for too long.

Instead we'll turn all our energy and focus towards

these five who are living the dream.

Petter Schjerven!

Ingar Helge Gimle!

Ingrid Gjessing Linhave!

Nora Svenningsen!

Jonis Josef!

We will now have a prize task.

A "bring something" task. What does that mean, Olli?

Well, it's complicated. But we've done it before.

What is this "prize task" concept? - It means that these participants

will bring something that you have asked them to bring within a given category.

The prize you like best gets 5 points.

That's very neatly explained. - It is, thank you.

It should stick by now. - I hope so.

What have I asked the participants to bring today?

Listen now, Olli. The wording for today's task...

You are not waiting in anticipation, because you already know it.

Bring something you're not able to use up.

That could be anything.

Bring something you're not able to use up.

We'll start with you, Nora.

Once again, it would be a good idea for all small children,

and possibly sensitive ears, to cover your ears,

because now I'm going to tell you

about the money I'm not able to use up,

from my father and daughter trip to Pattaya.

This is...

This is...

Father and daughter...

It's simply a good chunk of baht.

For those of you who don't know Pattaya,

I'd say it's the sex capital of the world.

It's where I had to look after my dad,

and not the other way around.

And that is...

I formed a bond with my dad that I didn't need,

and like... Yeah.

I sense that we're about to hear the story now,

but I'm not sure if I want to hear that story.

Go ahead. - There is something about...

First of all, we were there for two weeks,

and every night we ended up

sitting at Starbucks, drinking orange juice,

and looking out at the trade going on outside.

And it wasn't just any trade.

It was...

Don't uncover your ears yet.

It was bodies for sale? - It was bodies for sale.

And then sitting there with my dad going,

"Look over there, now there's some business going on over there",

while drinking orange juice.

Are you saying you had to stop your father?

I had to be protective of my dad,

because he was very popular there.

He looked like a very single man,

and... this...

I shouldn't have brought this.

You shouldn't have done that.

It sounds completely wrong, but it's...

It sounds like it went well.

It went well, and it's just... I'm not going back.

I'm not able to use them up.

My dad and I still have a good relationship.

Until now.

Ingrid, what have you brought?

I've brought a make-up remover.

That's because, as a woman, or maybe just as a human being, I don't know...

At the hairdresser, I always hear: "Are you good at using conditioner?"

Then I say, "No." Then I buy a lot.

The same goes for: "Are you good at cleansing your face?"

"No."

So I have even more at home. I have so many...

Oi!

...cleansing products, because...

Now I'll say it:

I can't be bothered to remove my make-up.

I don't have the energy.

It's so fucking boring to be a woman,

having to remove hair, remove make-up,

brush your hair...

I have just entered a sort of…

At home, I just want to be some kind of moth.

But does that mean that if we take off layer by layer from your face,

we'll end up back in '79?

Then we'll find LdB Bronze from 1982.

I actually look like Helge Jordal .

In any case, it is dangerous to start taking it off now.

Absolutely. We can't do that. - We don't know what's underneath.

Ingar, what do you have?

I have brought with me...

...something that I'm completely addicted to,

that I can't use up.

It's a nasal spray. - Oh, now you're vulnerable.

Yes...

As usual?

Yes, I can never get rid of it,

because it's actually empty. I just pretend that it isn't.

I started smoking when I was six, and was hooked straight away.

It's a hard life in Torshov.

Yes, but I had to quit when I was eight, because I got caught.

So I didn't start again for real until I was 12.

I really liked that,

but then I started... with sweets.

Then I became addicted to that.

And as an adult, I became addicted to this.

I can't sleep with a... stuffy nose.

I was in Spain a couple of years ago and didn't have a nasal spray,

so I went to a pharmacy and said:

"Señora, por favor. Yo... I must have..."

She went to the back and found this, this nice nasal spray,

then she said to me: "But señor, not more than 10 days."

Then I couldn't help myself,

so I said: "Yo, me, 10 years."

Then she became completely distraught,

"You can't do that."

I met her a couple of days later, and bought some salt water.

She said, "You have to buy salt water."

So now I always carry this salt water with me.

So if I get caught with this on me,

I say: "No no, it's empty."

"I just have it because I'm addicted to it."

"I have the salt water here."

It will never get empty. - No.

It's a very complicated scheme you have set up there.

Yes, but I always have a full one, too.

No!

Yes, yes. Don't tell anyone.

I've been down that road myself. You have to...

I have to help you out of that. - I know, it's almost... It's bleeding...

Your nose will close up.

My nose closed up long ago.

But it'll have to do. It's just how it is.

Jonis, what do you have?

Something I can't get enough of.

I was planning to put my girlfriend in here.

Aww! - Aww...

But I didn't want to do a joke answer,

so I have a serious answer instead.

What I have under here is…

I grew up...

Many of my friends are in 'poverty-land'

or whatever it's called.

'Poor-land' .

'Poor-land'. - They don't have money.

It's not very believable, when you don't know what it's called.

My class journey has been quite exponential.

Yes, it has.

But what has always fascinated me about my poorest friends

is that every time I open their fridge,

everyone always has one specific thing.

It applies to each and every one of them.

That is Idun ketchup.

No matter how bad off you are financially,

I expect to see Idun ketchup in your fridge.

If you don't have it, then I'm worried about you.

So this is how you measure how much trouble your friends are in.

I open their fridge, see the Idun bottle,

and think, "You're still doing okay."

"I'll check up on you again later."

Petter?

Yes, it might not be very surprising:

A glass of cloudberry jam.

Yes, cloudberry jam. - I'm not able to use it up.

You might see why, because I've had it...

In the next picture, you'll see that it expired in March '96.

But there are still cloudberries in there?

There's still cloudberry jam in there, yes.

But I can't use this up now.

I haven't opened it since '96.

No.

So it has been opened?

It has been opened, yes.

It must be too old now, surely?

I don't know. Doesn't jam last for a very long time?

Yes, it's a preservative.

Yes, but that is until you open it.

There is probably someone on this panel who wasn't even born

when this jam was first opened.

By a good margin.

Yes.

But it has a wonderful design.

It's a beautiful design, and it tastes very good.
