What's The Most Expensive Item At IKEA? (Mini Golf Game)

- I'm never going with fate again! Fate is a lie! It's a lie! (funky electronic music). - Good Mythical Morning. - You like my two-time Pick n' Putt winner's jacket? - I do like it. - I just had it mowed. - Oh, you did? - I plan to keep it forever. - It looks very comfortable. Well, our greens are kind of clashing. I think it would look better if that went. over my green sweater.

- Well, there's only one way to make that happen, Link, it's up to you. - Yeah, I mean, Rhett won the two previous matches that we had, but today, we're gonna be testing our IKEA knowledge so... - And as a big blonde man. I identify very much with the Swedes. - Okay, so when was the last time. you went in an IKEA, though? - It's been a couple of years. I got lost, I got scared, and I have not returned. (laughs) - Yeah, it's huge. I mean, you could set up an entire golf course, not just a putt-putt course, in one of those places. But I feel like I learned everything there is to know. about IKEA a few years back when I assembled.

a chest of drawers and nearly had an emotional breakdown. So this episode may need a trigger warning, for me. It's time for Pick n' Putt, IKEA edition. Welcome to the putting zone. - I will now see the glorious winner's jacket. to our very own IKEA stock boy, Chase, until he, very likely, returns it to me. in about, you know, 10 minutes or so. (laughs) - Oh, okay! We'll see how that goes. As you can see, our Pick n' Putt course has three holes. representing three different answers. and we're gonna be asked a series of questions about IKEA.

and we'll putt our answers into the hole. that represents our guess. - Each putt counts as a stroke. and putting into the wrong hole gets you. two extra penalty strokes. Whoever has the lowest score at the end of the game, it's golf, wins the right to keep. the coveted winner's jacket, or receive it for the first time. Hey, it can happen, anything can happen. (funky bass music). Oh, look at this! - We have got a system! - Ironically, this is still being powered by Chase. He's in the next room on a bicycle making all this work,

so don't be alarmed. - [Link] So we gotta putt through all three of these things, and then you have to hurdle over them. in order to get through the hole. - Yeah. - All right, since you won last time, for the last time, you get to putt first, but we should hear the question. - Yeah, you wanna hear the question? Stevie, we'd like to hear the question. - [Stevie] Okay, just because HBO's "Game of Thrones". had a multi-million dollar budget, doesn't mean they didn't know how to save a few bucks. One of the Emmy award-winning designers for the show. admitted to using a particular IKEA product. as a well-featured G.O.T. prop.

Was that IKEA product. a collection of IKEA faux fur rugs, used to create the capes for the men of the Night's Watch, a fladis basket, used to transport. Daenerys's three dragon eggs, or a store-sent glass carafe, featured as the vessel from which Cersei Lannister. poured her excessive amounts of wine? - And I can see that those are the three things. that are swinging. - So you've read and watched all of "Game of Thrones.". - Yes, but there was no mention of IKEA.

- And I've watched and read some. and I also did not pick up on that. Okay, so the basket for the eggs doesn't make any sense. because I know enough about the show. to know that's such a central feature, but glass can pass as glass. What you gonna do, be like, "Can you make a custom glass?". - Glass is glass. - [Rhett] Glass is glass, so I think it's the carafe. Now, gentleman's agreement. You don't have to putt down the middle, you can bank it, but you gotta start in the middle. You down with that? - Agreed. - [Rhett] Okay, so I'm going on the left side, I'm banking, I'm trying to get to the carafe.

- He has cleared the swingers! But you're really close to fur rugs. (groaning in concern). - This is gonna be difficult, to come all the way across and get into that carafe-hole. - Is this fate screwing with you? - [Rhett] I mean, there is a line to this, but man, fate is telling me to go with fur rugs. No, they wouldn't use fur rugs. There's so many materials available to designers these days. I'm gonna try to get into the carafe-hole. - [Link] This is not an easy putt for McLaughlin. He's going for the hole farthest from his lie.

(Rhett screams). - I caught the lip! - You caught the lip of "basket.". - I caught the lip of "basket.". I caught the basket lip and now I'm going in there. Oh boy, if I'm wrong, - Three strokes. for McLaughlin - That's gonna be a serious, serious faux pas. - [Link] All right. I disagree with you. I definitely don't think it's that vase. That's just too manufactured and recognizable. I actually think it's the furs. 'Cause a fur, is a fur, is a fur. I mean, they're gonna have to use fake furs anyway, might as well get 'em on the cheap. and then start putting them together.

- Sound reasoning. - I'm gonna try to bank it in the same way you did, 'cause you ended up near the rugs. Thank you for that information. (golf ball clattering). Oh, I almost went in "basket!". I did clear these puppies. - I think you can make it in "fur" in two. That should happen. - Let's see if I can do this. (golf ball clattering) (Link whoops). - All right, he's in "fur" in twos. - That's at least what I wanted to do, but Stevie, is that what I should've done? - [Stevie] While dragon eggs and red wine. may make for a fine brunch in Kings Landing,

- Dang it! - [Stevie] It was the faux fur. IKEA rugs that costume designer Michele Clapton. admitted to repurposing into capes. for the celibate men of the Night's Watch. - Look, I get a pre-winner's thing! - [Stevie] It also means Rhett, you get five strokes for this round, and Link, you only have two. - Oh, gosh. (funky bass music). (laughs) - It seems. that we have a chef suspended on the course. - [Rhett] He's gyrating, thanks to Chase.

He's got, like, a couple of open veins. on his arms that you can putt into, and then a mouth-hole. - He's hungry, apparently for more meatballs, Stevie? - [Stevie] Yes! Three bowls of meatballs sit before you, but only one holds the famous IKEA Swedish meatballs. Although traces of horse meat were found. in IKEA meatballs throughout Europe in 2013, - I remember that. - [Stevie] None of these balls are horse balls. Which meatballs are from IKEA, meatball A, meatball B, or meatball C?

- I think A tastes better than B. - Honestly, I have very little to go on here. But you gotta go first 'cause you just took a big, commanding lead. (fork clattering). - Now, you don't want me to stand up here, right? You just want me to choke up on this puppy? - [Stevie] Please. (hums thoughtfully). - I think that they all are tasty. I think it's A. Feeling it. I wish it were B, because if I feed the chef, it comes out a blue tube from his... - Scarf. - Scarf, okay yeah, that's his scarf. And it's aimed right at B,

whereas A and C, we got that gyration. So I'm hoping that the left hand goes to A. - So you're going for A. (laughs). - Too hard, too hard, help a man out. - All right, so that's one stroke. - Okay, so you're learning a lot from my mistakes here. (laughs). - Okay, all right, that's two strokes. - But I can go from here now. - [Rhett] Yeah, but you can go from there, yeah.

- [Link] There it goes! Come on, Chase, work with me! (whoops). - [Rhett] Okay, all right, all right. - So we did learn that is the correct one. (sighs). - Man, okay. (golf ball clattering) (Link whoops). Man, my instinct is that it's A as well. I'm not confident about getting it in that daggum hole. - Daggum! Oh, he has made it in one hit, he has learned from my mistakes, but he has. almost landed in B! - [Rhett] Almost! Tabee! (Stevie laughs). - All right, now you should've listened to fate last time.

Fate is sending you to B now. - If you're right on A, from a game theory standpoint, it's logical for me to go for A. Because if I'm wrong and I go to B, then I basically completely erase any advantage. Or I go way up. - You go way up. - I'm gonna go with my instincts because--. - Go all the way up. - Man, but I didn't trust fate in the first round. and I should have and I wouldn't be here right now. - Everything you said is true. - All right, here's the thing. I'm not gonna go with fate, I'm gonna go with instinct, and if I'm wrong, I'm never not. trusting fate again in this game.

- All right, so I'll take that long play. Okay, Stevie. - [Stevie] The best selling. IKEA item in the world is not a piece of furniture, it's their meatballs, and those meatballs. were in bowl B. - Dang it! (screams). - Fate! - I'm gonna trust fate from now on! - You have to go with fate forever in this game! - Forever, I'm just a man of fate! (funky bass music). If you've been thinking about joining. The Mythical Society, you should do it right now. because through October 21st, in celebration of my birthday month!

- His birthday month! - We're gonna give some deep discounts to. select second and third-degree memberships over there, so go check out all the details at mythicalsociety.com. - And check out these fans, we got, like, a typhoon sensation happening down here. - [Rhett] Typhoon sensation! Stevie, what are we trying to figure out? - [Stevie] For the biggest IKEA "fans" in the world, there's an actual IKEA Museum in Sweden, which has featured all kinds of hardcore. IKEA-centric exhibits over the years.

Which of these is not an actual exhibit. to ever appear in the IKEA Museum? A virtual reality IKEA kitchen. in which you put on a VR headset. to virtually walk around an IKEA kitchen. and do fun things like open drawers and cook meatballs, a home futures exhibit, in which IKEA shows you. what they think homes will look like. 50 years in the future, or a talking holographic image of IKEA's founder, Ingvar Kamprad-- - Oh, Ingvar?

- Kamprad? - [Stevie] Who will tell you. a brief history if IKEA on a loop all day long? - Ingvar? - He goes all day long. - You're still in the lead, Link. It shrunk a little bit, but you're still in the lead. I'm talking about the lead shrunk. - The talking hologram totally makes sense. VR kitchen of existing kitchen. versus a future kitchen, that's how I'm torn because. they have a lot to gain by just. people experiencing their existing kitchens. But futuristic homes... I think it's that one.

- You think it's futuristic homes? - I think that does not exist in the museum, even though that seems like the coolest thing. - The coolest thing. - So I'm gonna give this some gusto. to get past this gust, and then right down the middle. Get ready, Ingvar. (golf ball thumping) (screams). - Oh, fate was sending you to VR kitchen! - I can't quite make it! (groans) (shoes shuffling). All right. (golf ball clattering) Yes, right there! - [Rhett] Okay, futuristic homes.

Well, first of all, I don't think anymore. I just let fate decide my whole life. - Oh, no, fate doesn't decide until. after you've gotten close to something. - I have to have an intention, so my intention... I don't know, man. VR kitchen makes all kinds of sense, because everybody's on that. A talking hologram, Link, is expensive. Unless it's like, one of the cheap holograms. I think the talking hologram is not real. - [Link] So are you going for a bank shot? - [Rhett] I think I can get an almost straight shot to it, but here's the deal. If I'm sent somewhere else by fate, I will follow the winds of fate.

- You shall. He's hit the fan, and--. Oh! Fate seems to be telling you to agree with me, Rhett. - Fate sent me to futuristic homes. and I no longer question fate. I don't question fate! Should I question fate again? 'Cause maybe I can get the lead. - You said you would follow fate. (Rhett sighs) Nothing else matters. You committed to it. How good is your word? If you go back on fate and your word, who are you? You're not my friend anymore. - [Rhett] Here's the thing. If I follow fate and I'm wrong,

I'm never following fate again! - [Link] This is quite a lot of talk. about something that doesn't exist. Speaking of what doesn't exist, which one is it? - [Stevie] Although. there is a section of the Ikea Museum. dedicated to the history of IKEA, there is no holographic Ingvar! - I'm never going with fate again! Fate is a lie! It's a lie! (funky bass music). - Well, we got an "Excite Bike"-like Plinko board,

and then we have a bridge over troubled gold. Okay, what are we trying to decide, here? - [Stevie] IKEA may be known as the go-to spot. for cheap college dorm room furniture, but shoppers with a taste for the finer things. may also find something they like while shopping at IKEA. What is the most expensive item sold at IKEA? (sings dramatic music). Is is the Nutid stainless steel self-cleaning double oven. with automatic locks and quadruple glass doors, - Quadruple?

I mean, how many glasses? - Four. - Four glasses? - [Stevie] The Godmorgon Tolken Kattevik. white double countertop sink/cabinet set. made with solid wood drawers. and environmentally conscious water-saving faucets, - Man, that's so sleek and Swedish-looking. - The faucets know about the environment. - [Stevie] Or the LIDHULT six-seat corner sleeper sofa. with pocket spring support and a built-in pull-out bed? - [Link] Zach, can you photoshop. a dog on that couch for scale? I can't tell how big it is.

Crap, okay, who's going first? - You gotta go first, I'll just listen to your reasoning. I'm interested in it. - I mean, those faucets may be environmentally conscious, but I think that's the least expensive of the three. That could be a $12,000 couch. - That's a big couch. - I think it's the couch. Of course, none of that matters. if I can't even get over this Plinko board. - There's a lot that could go wrong here. - [Link] You gotta kind of be in the middle. in order to get over the bridge. You ever stop and think about. how many people are watching right now?

- You thinking, like, a professional golfer? - Like a million people watching this right now. Watching me putt. - Well now that you put it that way... (both laugh). Yeah. You shouldn't have put that pressure on yourself, man! - Dang it! (ball clattering). Oh, it did hit the plate! No! Gosh darn it! - Okay, so that counts, it did hit the planks. Or the plinks. And so now we're saying that this is a drop here.

and you have to hope that it stays in the middle. (ball clattering). Nice, nice. - [Link] This is not gonna be easy. - [Rhett] And this is your third shot. Always practice swinging on the outside of the golf ball, just like the pros. (ball clattering). Oh! Wow, you--. - I wasn't even thinking about the holes. Double sink is the one I was not going for. You know what? I'm gonna let fate decide. Fate is telling me, "Go with the oven,".

and I'm going with fate. - Fate has let me down. - [Link] Come on, fate, don't let me down. - [Rhett] Okay, so that's oven in four. You got me nervous. Now I'm thinking about the millions of people watching. - I wouldn't say millions. I might say million. - I mean, over time, millions, maybe. Okay, here we go. (inhales deeply). - Don't go too hard! Or too soft. (ball clattering) Oh, nice! Plinko action. - [Rhett] Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no.

It can't happen, it's mathematically impossible. - [Link] Yep, you're gonna have to do. a two-putt just to position. - But what if I just go so hard? Man, I don't know what I should do. I think I gotta go for it, Link. - Oh, shoot. - I think I gotta go hard. - All right. Oh, dang it! (yelps). And you almost went in the sink! See, you forgot about the holes, too. - Yeah, I did. Wow, okay. There's a lot of different options here. We could tie, you could win, or I could win,

and it all has to do with whether or not... Whatever the right answer is. (laughs). - You cannot putt to oven unless you're gonna two-putt. - There's just no way that double-sink. is more expensive than sofa, and since you're already in oven in four, I gotta go with sofa. Now fate is telling me to go to double-sink, but you know what fate did to me last time. (ball clattering) - [Link] Okay, he has landed in sofa. (sighs). - [Stevie] And now for the reveal.

IKEA's double sink/cabinet set will run you $1,016, and the double oven will set you back $1,499, but the big-ass corner sofa will cost you the most. (laughing and whooping) at $3,829. - I was right and I lose! - [Stevie] Link if it makes you feel any better, Zach did photoshop a dog onto that couch. - [Rhett] Oh, it's much smaller than anybody ever thought. - That's a really overpriced couch.

- Boy, I almost lost it, but I get to sleep comfortably tonight! In my stiff jacket! - Oh man, that was crazy! And who won, really? You. - That's right. - Thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell. - You know what time it is. - My name's Tina. - And I'm Carly. - [Both] And we're at IKEA in Ontario, Canada, and it's time to spin the Wheel of Mythicality.
