Becky lost her shoe when trying to reach the Safety Zone in The Wall Room. She barely made it to the Safety Zone and possibly the closest-to-fail scenario happened in the show, as her right leg was caught between the walls but thankfully she could pull it out before the wooden door closed.
Haruna Kojima, Yoshizumi Ishihara and Minami Takahashi in The Wall Room cleared the quizzes without making any mistakes, tying similar achievement done by Sachiko Kobayashi, Ryo Tamura and You Kikkawa on December 19th, 2011 broadcast. However, this team had better performance as Yoshizumi and Minami also managed to collect three keys and get two points as result (the previous team unable to collect three keys although You managed to reach Safety Zone).
In the Cave Room, Seishirô Kato, Masayasu Wakabayashi and Yoshizumi Ishihara became the fastest team to clear all the caves, with 3 minutes 43 seconds remaining time. Seishirô Kato and Yoshizumi Ishihara also cleared the Trial of Lithographs, although they really took their time to solve the trial, so their combined remaining time was just a little bit over four minutes.
The worst performance during Trial of Sorting tied similar result made by Masayasu Wakabayashi on November 7th, 2011 broadcast. Mihoko Abukawa and Yuki Iwai used their first chance with only one correct placement, and then their second / final chance with zero correct placement.
