3. The ink on the finger ahh
Aired 28 September 2023
"Blekket på finger´n ahh" (The ink on my finger then) was written by Christian Skolmen while drafting his list of wishes during the List your wishes, then make them come true task, and then repeated verbally in the studio.

5. World record
Aired 12 October 2023
The phrase "Verdensrekord" (World record) is used by Tete Lidbom, during the Something you have but are too old for task. After Marte Stokstad submits the fact that she is still menstruating at the age of 45, Tete genuinely asks whether perhaps that might be a world record, and is quickly educated by the rest of the panel about the typical age at which the menopause occurs.

Tete Lidbom utters the phrase "Min første piknik" (My first picnic) after successfully completing the Set up a picnic for Olli and yourself task.

Aired 26 October 2023
"Det er tusen perler i glasset" (There are a thousand beads in the glass) was the penultimate line of the task brief in the Write down how many beads are in the jar task, which baffles several of the contestants. It cannot be attributed to any particular member of the cast.

10. Impressive spinning top
Aired 16 November 2023
"Imponerende snurrebass" (Impressive spinning top) is not a direct quote from anyone or anything that happens during the episode. Instead, it is a reference to the euphemistic nature of the Make the largest spinning top task. While the Norwegian word ‘snurrebass’ means ‘spinning top’, it is also a euphemism for ‘penis’).
