The Porcelain Doll's and the Racing Fox's sultry ballads together with Oscar Zia and respectively "Idol" winner Margaux Flavet took them directly to the final when the audience in a first round had said their piece.

The Forest Giant, who sang a dance tune together with Lucianoz, got on Friday evening the fewest votes and was thus the first to remove their mask. There hid – which Behrouz "Berra" Badreh had figured out – hockey profile Niklas Wikegård.

At 60 you have to let loose a bit, the whole life has been too serious, says Wikegård in the program and adds that the jury's guesses on established artists like Björn Skifts, Niklas Strömstedt, Björn Kjellman, and Samir Badran made him slightly embarrassed.

The Faceoff duel between the Stage Walker, who previously performed a Gatsby-inspired number together with Sarah Dawn Finer, and Sushin, who sang jury member Måns Zelmerlöw's "Heroes" with backing from Smash into Pieces, and Sushin thus snatched the last final spot.

Behind the Stage Walker's mask was found Swedish Hollywood star Alexander Karim, something that both Pernilla Wahlgren and "Berra" Badreh guessed.
