In the last Mole Alex was executed from the game which set a few people wondering who the Mole could be. Both Mark and Nicole thought Alex was the Mole and both were glad that he was gone. It means they now can move on to someone else and stop answering wrong. I don’t see it as good for them because now they know that they were obviously wrong, especially Mark. Guess all of his note taking didn’t help out too much after all!

Going into the next mission the final five were looking for a twist and they got one. Before they found out what the mission was they were asked to, once again, split into two teams. The “dumb” team would have two people and both Nicole and Craig quickly scooped up those spots. That left Paul, Mark and Clay in the “smart” team. What they had to do was run around Mendoza looking for clues to a number trivia question. Since they stupidly chose the dumb team, Nicole and Craig were given two more questions then the smart team and there was the slight twist. To win the $30,000 for the pot they had to get all of the questions correct which to me seemed kind of hard.

Nicole and Craig seemed to do well throughout the entire mission. They easily found all of their clues and seemed to remember them throughout the mission. Nicole however was less Moleish for once as Craig tried to mess her up several times. Their only problem was their last question where both seemed to get different numbers several times. Was that Craig messing things up once again or Nicole throwing her moleish behaviour in? The smart team had some problems as well. In their first question Clay tried to make Mark think that his number was wrong. Mark quickly proved him wrong with simple math and makes me wonder if Clay is the Mole now. On the other hand we has Paul who pulled a more visible sabotage. He misdirected the three guys 8 blocks from their final location which made the two others think Paul was the Mole. To be short all five players pulled some Moleish behaviour and I honestly have NO clue who it is right now.

When all the teams returned they quickly put in their numbers and they found out that the last question for the dumb team was wrong. It was the hardest I must say, counting over 200 tiles and lamp posts. Nicole was then given one last chance to check the number but while she was gone Clay figured that there was a pattern to the numbers. Nicole returned and gave them a number that was different then Clay’s so the guys went with their fellow man and took Clay’s word over Nicole’s word. Lucky they did since Clay’s pattern was right and they gained $30,000 with 10 seconds to remain.

Following the mission both Mark and Clay had a sit down. Mark believes that the Mole is either Craig or Nicole. Clay told Mark that he said Nicole was the Mole for the last quiz but also let us know that he took his coalition with Mark with a “grain of salt”. Following that chat Clay went to Nicole and had a little chat with her. He told her that he said that Craig was the Mole in the last quiz and she says that she did the same. They seem to have formed a new coalition and it should be interesting to see which alliance Clay sticks with in the end.

The following day the final five move out of Mendoza and over to Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina. When they finally arrived it was time for their next mission. Each player was first asked to choose someone they trust the most in the game. Mark chose Clay, Paul chose Mark, Craig chose Clay, Clay chose Nicole and Nicole chose Mark. What they didn’t know is that the person they chose would be the deciding factor between seeing a family member and not seeing a family member. When everyone heard they would get to see a loved one they all wanted the prize more then the money but like I said, it all came down to the person they chose to play for them.

First up was Craig who had to give Clay answers to several trivia questions on his friend Brendi. If Clay could get three out of five questions correct then Brendi’s train door would open and he would get to spend time with her. Oh yeah, $10,000 would also be added to the pot. Luckily Clay remembered enough questions to get Paul’s friend to exit the train as he did with Mark’s wife as well. Thanks Nicole Clay’s wife was able to exit the train and thanks to Mark, Nicole’s mother also got to spend time with the group. With four out of the five able to spend time with their family and $40,000 added to the pot so far, Paul was last to go. He wasn’t able to answer several of the questions which made it nerve racking to see if he would get to see his wife and daughter. Luckily Mark was able to get three questions right out of the so few that Paul answered and each of the final five got to spend time with their families and gained $50,000 for the pot. It’s amazing how well they did and I’m very glad the Mole didn’t sabotage this one since it really meant a lot to each member of the team.

The following day the group got to spend time with their loved ones. Nicole spent the time letting her mother know how badly beaten she is from the game. She feels that she is an outsider in the game and lets her mother know that she wants to quit the game and go home. Her mom told her to do so and basically egged her on to quit, does this mean Nicole isn’t the Mole? Before the quiz Nicole let the cameras know she will self execute herself by throwing the quiz. Later that night she was given the chance to do so as it was time for the quiz.

Before the quiz each family member was asked if their loved one was the Mole. Only Paul’s wife and Craig’s friend thought they could be the Mole while Nicole let her mom know about a few rounds ago where she wanted to kill Paul. Her mom took it rather well, once again egging her on a bit to do so. Oddly enough Nicole wasn’t sent home but Clay was instead. Nicole said as Clay exited that she couldn’t do it but I’m somewhat thinking she is the Mole now and this was all done to throw us off. Clay was a big player in the game, although he had little Molish behaviour. It should be interesting to see next weeks episode and if Nicole’s idea to quit continues or now.
