With Nic going through med school, this should have been easy for her. She's either the Mole or the winner. Dang, I ran around so much finding a TV I missed the important stuff.

Just as I am "sure" I know who The Mole is - poof! They are gone!

Lol tnt - I discounted Clay when he was trying to fill in his journal with Paul's bday, and he lost it, I truly thought he wanted to get things in his journal, and a mole wouldnt care... however I did doubt myself because part of his "tantrum" with Paul could've been pure "human" being locked up with an individual different from yourself... (I almost channeled the Everybody Loves Raymond - Debra calls Ray a name I use way too often!!) Also tonight it cleary discounted Clay as the mole when he mathmatically figured out what were the missing numbers to add the $30,000 in the pot! I would've thought he was going home at that point, except for the red herring text clue, as well as Nicole's tirade (oh, more red herring!) that she was going to walk out of there with her mom! In that respect Nicole was more moleish tonight - her behaviour in explaining to her mom why she "couldnt do it" and "sorry" was way harder to believe than her other actions... her head was "down" when she sat down after taking the quiz and whispering "sorry" to her mom, her mom looked "baffled" - - unless I'm just projecting what I want to see!! roflol! Kitt - thanks for adding that reference - that went <woosh> over my head!! Csnog - I think going thru med school did make the task easy for her - esp the family question one - that really made her shine - but in the "dumb" team, she was good at keeping those 4 different numbers in sequence, as well as correcting Craig every time he made a mistake - that the TV/edit showed!! The last one I think was totally easy to discount as well as easy to point "mole"... oh, and Jimmer - do make sure you have paper and markers (way more fun then a pencil) when you show it with your dd!! They will so want to do that math!!

Either Nicole is a very good actor or she is the mole. My husband doesn't even watch it as faithful as me but last night he said the lady is the mole.

Nicole may have been 'playing' her mom as well. She could be the Mole.

I don't know --- I've suspected Nicole since she never took notes. The Mole would be the only player who doesn't need to take notes. Even if the Mole needs notes to do the sabotage, it would be disastrous if some one ever stumbled on it or if there's a surprise swap of NB.... But Nicole demonstrated great ability in "memorization" last epi. She was, in fact, the only player cared enough to really get into that task! (Not to slam Clay, but I'm not sure I'd ever want him on my side in front of a judge?) If Nicole's not the Mole, the one she wanted to keep an eye on, Craig, could be. Actually, I'm putting my money on Craig! He did a couple strange things in that "Go Figure" challenge. Also, Paul & Mark must have suspected Craig more than they did Nicole. They sent Nic to redo it rather than Crg. At the time I thought it might have to do w/ the fact that Nic could obviously move faster than Crg could. But the distance did not seem that much. It was more the chance for a solid figure. They worried about another "bad" figure from Crg. ETA: I did read about formal Mole's faking of notes and how Dennis did in fact win w/o ever taking notes.

Well, I'm only glad I don't have to figure out Clay any more, I discounted him as the mole a couple of shows ago but last night with the Math challenge I knew he wasn't him but I expected him to last longer. He must have switched entirely his suspicion on someone else and flunked the test altogether. Nicole is so puzzling to the point of frustration and I can't think any more. All of them are great at hiding the truth. I noticed though that the show is edited to confuse the audience, there is so much that we don't see and the players do see it all, I'm sure they all know now who is the Mole, it's just a question who can answer all of the questions right. Are we getting a consensus here of who the Mole is?? Count me out because I still can't figure it out, but would love to see what the majority here thinks is the Mole.

Shall we do a little poll here then? Anyone want to chirp in with who they guess is the Mole and who is the winner? My guess is: Paul is the Mole. Mark will be the winner.

Can someone explain to me how Clay arrived at the correct answer of "233". I missed that part of the show, but I assume it was a mathematical sequence of some kind.

I'm not sure they told how he did it Happyg - I know he was looking for patterns, and then they cut to a DR entry ofhim explaining he is a "math genius" I wiil say I never did well with those dern sequence patterns - so kudos to Clay!! I'm going with Nicole Mole (and like a few others, I fully expect her to leave next week - but her actions this last week - confused me ) I want Mark to be the winner, so i expect Paul will be the winner or the mole!! there, that's clear as mud!! roflol

I have always believed that Craig is the Mole since week 2. I find it very telling that Jon has never once called Craig’s name during the execution ceremony, i,e., we have never been shown a green screen for Craig — that is clearly a definitive clue. My guess is the tie last week was between Clay and Mark with Clay being slower with his answers.

The math: First number + second number = third number. Second number + third number = fourth number. Third number + fourth number = fifth number. Etc. That's what Clay was trying to show.

I'm confused. If the numbers were 13, 21, 89, 144, and 233, I can only see #3 plus #4 working. How did Clay know to add those two numbers together to get 233. The sequence before it doesn't add up.

Adding the previous two numbers together gives us the Fibonacci series: 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89 144 and 233 but the numbers given were just some of it not all of it, so I didn't understand how he got the numbers either.

Hmmm, carrying on the sequence we get 377 610 987 1597 2584 4181 (the ones in bold were the "smart" team's numbers). So the clue answers were the 7th, 8th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 15th, 18th and 19th numbers in the Fibonacci series. Weird.

Thanks so much for clearing that up! Now I'll be able to sleep. Perhaps the 7, 8, 11, etc numbers are a clue to who the mole is?

Yeah, I wondered that too. It's too odd of a coincidence not to be a clue I think, it must have taken effort to find numbers that added up to those.

Well, I've been saying for a while that I think Craig is the Mole, but I'm starting to wonder about Paul after noticing a number of references to Italy on this show. The only thing is, I don't think Paul has cost the team very much money compared to everyone else. Let's see. He did conk out in that beach challenge when he was supposed to be toting sand, but it didn't effect the outcome of the challenge. He may have been partly responsible for not catching as many flying pigs with that blanket. He broke one of them to take his exemption. He happily went along with the idea of boycotting that race, but it wasn't his idea. He got them lost last night, but they still made it back in time. If he is the Mole, he's a very sneaky one but not very effective. Can anyone think of other times that Paul cost them money?

I can think of why each person left is the mole! I am driving myself crazy! One reason I think Craig is the mole is because we hear so little of what he is thinking in his confessionals, but I thought the same about Clay and Clay is gone. oh well... Also, even though I don't read the producer clues here or go anywhere else on the www to see clues, we paused our dvr while watching and saw maybe a producer clue. I won't say what I saw but it made me think Craig is the mole, but what I saw may be something totally meaningless. Every single thing can be a clue on this show!

I've updated the "Just the Clues" thread again. We're not picking up so many definitive clues, every clue seems to point to more than one person. So far as a group on this thread we have: Votes for Mole: Paul - i Nicole - ii Craig - ii Votes for Winner: Mark - iii It seems no one suspects Mark is the mole and he's the only one people have chosen to win!

Paul & Mark Nic & Craig obstacle course for kids C worries to look bad in front of his nephew Gargle, camera, no talking, one's the eyes, ... Player wearing the gargle could only see what the player w/ camera shows. Opposite so everything backwards ... Toddler's toy, shape fitting... Paul (not M) wanted to talk so badly! They did it! Nic's worried about special relation, ... N thinks C caused her to talk. 2000 only. C blames N of course. ...
