Miniminter's talent panel overlooks the Arnold Schwarzenegger option
A purple Rubik's Cube color and a reference to Puccini send the judges down competing paths in his fast-starting Short.

We did not see this coming... 😐
Would mentioning Puccini convince you someone could sing opera? It helps steer Miniminter's talent panel toward a guess, while the contestant's Arnold Schwarzenegger impression sits there as an option nobody chooses.
The setup offers three possible talents: an impression, holding an operatic note for a minute, or solving a Rubik's Cube at speed. The judges have to work out which one is real.
Their questioning produces wonderfully unhelpful clues. Asked to name the cube's colors, the contestant includes purple. Asked about his music taste, he describes it as eclectic and names Puccini. By the whiteboard reveal, opera has two votes and the cube has the other.
Then comes Schwarzenegger. The contestant launches into the impression, leaving the panel laughing at the answer they all passed over.
Posted as "We did not see this coming... 😐", the Short drew roughly 143,000 views in its first ten hours, already far beyond the channel's usual full-day Shorts audience. It gives the talent-game format another outing after "GUESS THE TALENT!" earlier this month.
The comments have their own small listening test underway: several viewers point out that the contestant said "eclectic," while others offer a judging tactic for next time: watch a contestant's face when ruling an option out.
