Luka's assumption that it's too easy is exactly right. The catch is the third question, and the Protector makes a sound as he pulls forth the page to look at it. He catches Luka making expressions and catches his desire decides that there's a proper way to handle it.
"A splendid second answer, quick to the third!" They exclaim as the Protector decides on what to say. The words on the Protector's last page are "The Protector is a doo-doo head" and how Luka's going to get that without cheating is anyone's guess. Have fun dreading what's next, audience!
"Six words. Soon. Childish insult. Distracted. About me." He chains together a number of words and it would sound like nonsense to anyone else, but he deliberately changes the way he says 'Soon' and 'Distracted', hoping that Luka picks up on his willingness to upturn this game show when Four was distracted. Probably when they were celebrating getting the third word right. The rest of it, though, is actual hints for the question.
Off to the side, Four is gleefully clapping their hands softly at how this is all unfolding.
