Did anyone catch this episode's secret clue??
TV ClubHouse: Archive: Did anyone catch this episode's secret clue??
Rissa | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 12:42 pm     Rosie, I checked it on my tape too and saw it clearly. Was trying to see if there was any symbol for NOT in there... a zero with a line through it, an equal sign with a line through it, etc. I did the Cdn. version of TIVO with the show and my machine does not do a screen by screen slow play. Does yours? Anyone? See how "BilL is the mole" is superimposed on top of the other letters/numbers? There are also a set of quotes like that.... BilL is ' ' the mole. If someone can screen by screen it, maybe the big light blur in the middle is hiding something or a NOT symbol can be seen? (I keep hoping that it's a more subtle hint and not an out and out lie. LOL) |
Amy | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 01:07 pm     Just for the record, I saw the clue without pausing or rewinding my Tivo the first time. My husband, my son and myself were watching and as the letters all came up and Anderson said to watch for the clue I just blurted out Bill is the Mole. My husband said "what?" and I stopped the Tivo and backed it up and showed him what I saw. It may have been my subconcious that saw it but I did. |
Kitt | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 03:05 pm     They could have put it somewhere else, they'd already used that part for the Admiral clue. I'm really annoyed at the producers (or whoever add the clues). After last night's show I'd be ready to believe any of the three were the mole, if it wasn't for the blatant Bill clues. It's really spoilt the show for me. |
Cinnamongirl | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 03:28 pm     I have to think the Bill clues are just too obvious and maybe thrown in there to screw us up. Are there any for the other two? Like the black cat from one episode maybe referring to Dorothys' cat-eye glasses and her little cat-earred hoodie jacket yesterday. Or maybe those were mole ears? LOL Are the only clues so far all for Bill? |
Kitt | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 03:32 pm     I think so Cinnamon girl, I haven't heard about any blatant ones for anyone other than Bill. I expect there are more tenuous ones that could be applied to the others. I thought they could have been mole ears too, wouldn't that have been a tease, but then Anderson called her "cat-girl"! |
Egbok | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 07:07 pm     I also thought about Dorothy's jacket/hood with the ears and thought maybe they would be mole ears but then I thought naw, mole's have little flat ears and wear glasses. Huh?!! Hey, wait a minute, Dorothy wears glasses!! LOL And Rosie, I don't have an answer to your question above, but if the players were not allowed to go home after an execution, just think of those who were executed early on in the game - a vacation in Europe for at least 5-6 weeks!! |
Tabbyking | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 07:17 pm     i wonder how we can find out. i hope kathryn or someone reads these posts and fills us in on some of the behind the scenes activities. imagine, if they had to keep them in europe for the whole year they delayed this show! lol it makes me think of the poor BB3 executed (exe-cuties) and how they are evidently sequestered when they leave the house--it's like being on the oj trial, with no news, computers, etc.! |
Pamy | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 08:05 pm     During the last game when Heather was breaking down she said ' I don't care about the 100,000' How did she know about the 100,000?? I thought when they offered the choice to Bill that was the only time it was mentioned. Did I miss something or is Heather the mole?

Tabbyking | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 08:09 pm     pamy, you sly little....you are so right. when she was sitting there moaning and groaning, she mentioned the 100k, then even subtracted it in her mind to get back to the other figure. (she was panicked, but remembered the exact amount of money they had!) oh my heavens! i wonder if this is the BIG clue, and heather IS the mole!! i didn't tape the episode. can anyone verify that anderson did not give a monetary amount to them before they started off on their separate ways? get your voices heard here quick--so i can decide whether or not to change my game picks!! |
Tabbyking | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 08:17 pm     well, my daughter, emt911, says they were told at dinner that they would have a final game and they could win up to 100k. she said she remembers thinking they had a chance for some big money right at the end. bummer! but i'm still waiting for someone else to verify this. and pamy--you are still smart! |
Amy | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 08:20 pm     Anderson told them at the beginning of the challenge that it "could be worth $100,000". |
Rosie4040 | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 10:34 pm     Or, maybe they just cut something out during editing about the money. |
Fruitbat | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 09:47 am     Brenda!! I forgot to thank you for that info about Anderson. That is interesting. |
Brenda1966 | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 12:58 pm     No problem Fruitbat! I hesitated to contradict you because I'm such a fan of your posts. *blush* I really wish there was more background information about the show, like how they select the Mole, who all knows who the Mole is, how do they communicate to the mole, and what does Anderson know. I'm sure going to miss seeing him each week. |
Fruitbat | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 02:52 pm     Brenda, I agree and NEVER hesitate to contradict me! I am not attached to my opinion (unless it is about the way the British pronounce words ) I post without proofreading and speak very bluntly at times. Sometimes I carefully phrase but I have been far too busy to tone it down, which I realize I must do to be understood as I am. |
Rissa | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 04:15 pm     Fruitbat <<(unless it is about the way the British pronounce words )>> What? You mean correctly? Couldn't resist, I am always teasing my American friends about the substandard level of their education that results in children being taught the *easy* way to spell words rather than taxing their little brains with the proper spelling. IE) it's a cheque not a check, colour not color, etc. Just what the heck do Americans have against the letter U anyway? RFLOL |
Pamy | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 04:37 pm     Well darn!!! I knew it was too good to be true. It was just wishful thinking that Bill is not the mole. Thanks for the info Tabby and your observant daughter!

Timmac10 | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 12:02 am     I think I'm in the minority here, but I feel strongly that the mole is Heather. I started really believing that after the game where they had to ride the bikes up the hill. There were the words "I will beat you" written on the road. The camera showed the words. Then quickly switched to Bribs riding the bike. Right after I saw that I made sure to see who would beat Bribs. For anyone who remembers the episode, Bribs was walking up the stairs holding the bike. Heather was walking beside him. Then Heather reached the top of the stairs right before Bribs did. I think that was a telling clue. Ever since then I've had my sights on her. She has done nothing to change my mind. I think Bill and Dorothy know it too. Remember the episode before last when Al was eliminated, Bill was holding the can of Mole repellent (or whatever it is), and held it up to her leg, everyone laughed when she made the remark "What did you think, I would burst into flames or something?" Almost as if it's known by everyone who the Mole is. |
Fruitbat | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 05:22 am     Rissa....I watch the British show Changing Rooms and get my tail in a not at their pronounciation. The u is not present in the American way of spelling those words. Just the way it happened, that is all. That is why children spell things the way they do. |
Fruitbat | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 05:25 am     Timmac, I think it is Heather too. You are not alone. It may be wishful thinking at this point, though. I'll say this again. If the mole is not Bill and all those clues were to confuse, the show missed the boat. There is no fun in looking for clues if the clues are purposely misleading. |
Rissa | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 09:23 am     Fruitbat, my husband is British so I absolutely know what you mean and I tease my in-laws quite a bit. LOL BUT! It is THEIR language, we (us Cdn's too) are the ones who altered it over the last couple centuries although we never sunk to removing letters from words to make them easier to spell. Timmac,I wish Heather was the mole too, but I am stuck on the show's clues. I can see them misleading us but not directly lying. Like Fruitbat said, there would be no fun in that. I am also a bit fed up with all you guys who managed to see these great clues that I am obviously missing. LOL I thought I was pretty alert but obviously NOT. LOL I missed that whole message in the bike trail thing. Besides the clues though, Bill's interviews seem wishy-washy to me, like he isn't sure who the mole is and that seems odd considering how far he has come in this game. The girls though seem to have been pretty confident for the last few weeks although they don't show them naming a person outright. The impression I am getting from them is that the competition is now btn the two of them simply as to who does better on the quiz. |
Makeitstop | Tuesday, August 06, 2002 - 09:50 am     It's Heather. It's Heather. It's Heather. Dammit, it's Bill. |
Kitt | Tuesday, August 06, 2002 - 02:02 pm     The clue on the bike game actually said "The mole will beat you", which looked like it applied to all the people in the bike part of the game. The only ones who didn't cycle were the three who made the pizzas - Katie, Myra and.......BILL! So Bill the Mole beat all the cyclists. We'll find out tonight anyway... can't wait :-). Hope Dorothy wins . |
Whit4you | Tuesday, August 06, 2002 - 05:12 pm     Well we are about to find out who the mole is - when they confirm that it's Heather.. go back and watch your tapes..she's not a very good actress I have to say... once you listen to her knowing she's the mole you'll see how phoney most of what she said really looks I'll admit all these "Bill" clues that you all mention make me not 100% sure only 99.99% sure lol |
Cliotheleo | Tuesday, August 06, 2002 - 07:13 pm     Just finished skimming back through this thread to see who guessed the clues correctly. Congratulations to Kitty, Fruitbat, Wilsonatmd, Madelane, and Amy (hope I didn't leave anyone out) for guessing them right! |
Donut | Tuesday, August 06, 2002 - 09:32 pm     Mssil:" the arrow with the word W.C. pointed to Heather" Mssil wins for figuring out that Heather was the toilet.. |
Donut | Tuesday, August 06, 2002 - 09:40 pm     btw, this is a great thread and i feel sad that i havent been to it in a long time... someone mentioned heathers familiarity with Anderson... I actually thought a big give away of Bills was when anderson came into his hotel room one week and bill said ' what are YOU doing here" and i always thought that NO ONE except someone working with the producers would say something like that... i also thought besides the clues there were other things that were too obvious and pissed me off, like there were a couple times when anderson picked bill to stay back or do something that made it look really fake and set up.. tritanfan, excellent point about the clues being either ridiculous and obscure or blatant, i had just said that to my hubby 2 secs before reading your post, only you used the better vocabulary words... |
