Faerygdds | Wednesday, July 03, 2002 - 02:32 pm     When I was growing up I was addicted to the written word. My mother had many books... most of them were true crime and Agatha Christie... can you tell???  |
Webkitty | Wednesday, July 03, 2002 - 03:41 pm     Faery, very impressive detective work! ummmm, that cake looks good! I DID buy into the telegram that Bill was the mole, now I'm not too sure............. |
Abbynormal | Wednesday, July 03, 2002 - 04:15 pm     You are so right Faerygdds!! WHY would anyone skip over the next piece?? Verrrry suspicious indeed. |
Car54 | Wednesday, July 03, 2002 - 04:24 pm     I'd skip the piece without the berry. I'm not the Mole, just like berries. |
Pamy | Wednesday, July 03, 2002 - 08:49 pm     LOL Car!!!!! I was thinking the same thing!!!
 |
Ann | Wednesday, July 03, 2002 - 09:25 pm     Faery... just one question. When the plate of cake was at the table (in your picture and how I remember it) wasn't the naked piece of cake at about the 4 or 5 o'clock position? Therefore, across the table from Bribs. If that's the case, it may blow your theory... who was sitting on the other side of the table? Did they show people actually taking their pieces? |
Faerygdds | Wednesday, July 03, 2002 - 09:48 pm     The piece taking part was VERY chaotic and NOTHING can be divined from it. Regardless of wether the naked piece was actually pointing at Anderson (which I didn't notice until I was getting the pics ready to post)... I would STILL start with Anderson. BUT... I will get a pic of the other side of the table and post it for you as well as a shot of the plate on the table. |
Faerygdds | Wednesday, July 03, 2002 - 10:20 pm     OK...
The empty space points at either Bribs or Heather (depending on if they reversed the image or not - silverware looks fishy to me as far as I think this image may have been reversed - see the knife.) On the other side of the table?
Myra, Lisa, Ali, and Rob Rob serves and passes the piece to Darwin who passes the plate around the table then there are arms everywhere as people grab for cake... very chaotic! So... my theory still holds.. and btw... after watching last nights show... you will not be able to convice me that Bribs is NOT the Mole. Body language spoke VOLUMES! He is SO the Mole! |
Catbowl | Wednesday, July 03, 2002 - 11:55 pm     Ya know...I think the producers of this show gave blatant false clues and subtle true clues as to who is the mole. Nice work Faery!!! And thank you so much for telling the long and INTERESTING story. That is how detective work is done I believe. |
Faerygdds | Thursday, July 04, 2002 - 03:05 am     My Mother and I are both Mole fans... and both mystery lovers. We rent murder mysteries (we never see them in the theatre as we get destracted trying to "discuss the case".) There is no crime we can't solve... lol... yeah right... no really... she turned me into a mystery buff and it SHOWS! |
Fruitbat | Thursday, July 04, 2002 - 08:12 am     Faery.......I stand in awe and curtsey until my knee touches the floor............. We were all so caught up in wrong detail! I am with you. Bribbs. Now tell me what body language did you notice with Bribbs that confirms your theory? |
Demeter | Thursday, July 04, 2002 - 08:48 am     I am hoping someone can clear something up for me. I don't tape the show, so I can't check this. It seemed to me as though there were two clips in this episode where the contestants were speaking about their suspicions, one in the beginning, and one in the second half of the show. As I recall, they interviewed everyone *except* Darwin (It's possible I missed them interviewing him in the beginning). That would lead me to wonder two things...he is not the mole, but is totally on about who is...and they didn't want it right out there for everyone right now, or he is the mole and they didn't need his interview. Did I miss something here? |
Faerygdds | Thursday, July 04, 2002 - 11:26 am     Fruit: Bribs totally gives it away during the execution. I dunno... maybe it's the Texas Connection, but I could read him like a cheap dime store novel! When his name is typed in he looks all tense. His screen comes up green and he looks relieved. (perfectly normal), a split second later, his MOM is all happy and squeezing his hand with that, "I'm so proud of you son!" expression and Bribs BLOWS IT!!! Look at the expression on his face... it's a darned smirk... one that, to me says, "Aw geez Mom... it wasn't that hard -- really - if you ONLY KNEW!" THEN..................... Katie gets executed. There is a great shot of Heather in the background and Bribs in the foreground. Heather is chatting with her beau and is relieved. After all, Katie's screen would seal her fate as well. But her reaction ... who care... LOOK AT BRIBS'S FACE! He has the furrowed eyebrows, looking at the ground, shoulders slumped, little tear in the eye... there is only one word to characterize the look on his face - GUILT! You can probably see the "look of guilt" on the mole website under the execution video, but to see the smirk with his Mom... you'll have to rewatch your video tape. I'll let you in on a little secret.... Here's how I look for clues... I watch the episode full through, so I know what's going on, etc. Then the second time I watch the show... I watch it with NO SOUND!!!!! You'd be surprised what "little" things you pick up when you are only using one sense at a time. At some point this week I will watch the show with my ears only and then I will get to that interview question. Never let your mind confuse you by throwing off one sense with another  |
Rosie4040 | Thursday, July 04, 2002 - 11:37 am     Bribs does seem to smirk a lot. |
Mygetaway | Thursday, July 04, 2002 - 04:25 pm     Faery Smooches to you!! I can't believe you (hubby too) went to all that hard work.. Thanks again! I'm going to watch my tape of this last episode again either tonight or this weekend. I will try out some of your observing styles.. Hope you're having a good 4th!! |
Faerygdds | Thursday, July 04, 2002 - 05:23 pm     Actually I'm bummed... I'm back on the dino as my power supply in "the beast" kicked over... I go from 256MB DDR to 96 MB of "slow" ram. Up side... it did it BEFORE BB! Down side... ep 8 of the mole is on the other HD!!!! Won't get fixed until this weekend... <sigh> Actually it's the fan that died... it's dragging and pulling the wattage down... major bummer... it turns, but no air... not turning fast enough I guess other than that... great day! |
Mygetaway | Thursday, July 04, 2002 - 07:11 pm     Faery... Sorry to hear about your computer problems.. Wow, you tape the shows on your computer?? You guys amaze me with all your computer skills.. And to think, I was happy to just upgrade to a 1000 Mghz processor just last week! It took me 3 years to do that because I was "comfortable" with what I had, and afraid to change it.{LOL} |
Fruitbat | Thursday, July 04, 2002 - 08:28 pm     Faery.....marry me. You have a husband and so do I. Definately a major glitch. Since we are both straight this poses a problem but we could possibly work around that. I am catching your train here. Rifle site has Bribs located. |
Egbok | Sunday, July 07, 2002 - 05:05 pm     Oh my goodness Faery, I read this whole thread from the beginning and you've got me convinced that Bribs is The Mole!! What an amazing web you weave and you've got me VERY convinced!! I'm on my way to change my votes on who is The Mole. |
Faerygdds | Sunday, July 07, 2002 - 05:26 pm     And to think... less than a week ago.. you all thought I was crazy! |
Egbok | Sunday, July 07, 2002 - 05:28 pm     Aww Faery, I never thought you were crazy BUT....if you do agree to marry Fruitbat, I just might begin to wonder!! LOL |
Faerygdds | Sunday, July 07, 2002 - 05:35 pm     Sorry Fruit... I just don't go that way, however... I will agree to be anyone's friend Egbok... the only thing you ever have to wonder about me is if you can quantify the amount of time I have on my hands to go through the shows over and over. I was looking forward to Mon and Tues going through all the eps (I have them on my comp) with each person left in mind, but looks like I WON'T be doing that this week... comp is going to take a little more cash than I can spend right now (first of the month you know), so until next check drops.... <sigh> Whatever will I do with my time until BB starts? Oh yeah.... post here!  |
Tabbyking | Sunday, July 07, 2002 - 06:48 pm     i am a little confused because in your july 3 post you say the righties went clockwise and the southpaws went counter clockwise, but your pic shows the waitress going counterclockwise and you point that out. anyway, i am a leftie who would go clockwise only as far as i could reach around back. i cut a huge bottom layer of a wedding cake last night and i cut left-handed (and clockwise) until i got to the back, then put the knife in my right hand and cut counter clockwise! yes, i am less coordinated with my right hand, so those people got monstrously bigger, albeit, sloppy pieces! right now i think they have given us so many indications on so many possible moles. i had katie, changed to bill, changed back to katie--and we all know what happened to that guess last week!--and now i'm back to bill. i have heard a lot of bribs guesses, though, and i will kiss your faery toes if it's bribs and anderson points out the blueberry theory as the biggest clue of the game!! |
Faerygdds | Sunday, July 07, 2002 - 07:15 pm     again.. the TENDANCY is for people to put small berries on with their predominant hand and to start from the center of their body and work out. The other tendancy I noticed is that people start from top to bottom. I'm not talking about everyday ppl.. I'm talking about ppl who COOK and prepare food for a LIVING. You and I COULD do many things... but the people that I talked to were chefs and bakers. I tend to trust that even though they were looking at me funny when I asked them to do it in the first place Also... a wedding cake is much larger than the small ring of the jelly roll ring she was decorating, so the same rules don't necessarily apply. In my experience over the last 25 years with my Grandmother and WEDDING cakes... at least my family tends to start at the bottom centar and turn the CAKE clockwise rather than try to go around, but then again, we placed the cake on a lazy susan to serve it. Oh and a little hint if you ever have to do that again (cut wedding cake)... keep a glass of warm water and a spare napkin next to you so you can "clean your knife" every 3rd or so piece (dip and clean in on the napkin)... makes cutting MUCH easier and cleaner... dang.. I've been CUTTING wedding cakes since I was 5... sorry.. I digress... just realizing how time flies. |
Gusto | Sunday, July 07, 2002 - 11:22 pm     Next Assignment: Solve the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle. Good detective work, Faerygoddess! |
Faerygdds | Monday, July 08, 2002 - 01:29 am     Gusto... if you want my theories on the Bermuda triangle... well... lemme put it simply... I HAVE a theory on that, but posting it would result in 1 of 2 outcomes.... 1 - Big men with little white coats with really long sleeves will come to visit or 2) Really big men with guns and badges will break down my door... not sure which and don't wanna risk it...  |
Tabbyking | Monday, July 08, 2002 - 09:05 am     faery, unfortunately, the wedding cake was not on a lazy susan and was in a little 'alcove' where you couldn't get behind it to finish cutting the backside! also, the cake did pretty well without the water and a knife, but that's a good hint--i will tell you that i only took over cutting the cake because i saw that the gal who was cutting it was licking her fingers after each cut! ick! i just finished cutting the entire bottom layer then went and washed my hands off! we have a friend who always licks her fingers between cutting slices and i always yell out, "i want the first piece!" when i see she will be serving cake! lol about the counter vs clockwise, i think you maybe just typed them backwards in your theory post. when you showed the pics (man, what a power point!!) you explained it the other way around, and it makes sense that people will follow their hand--left, clockwise; right, counter-clockwise. i think any man in bermuda (shorts) should disappear! hee hee |
Faerygdds | Monday, July 08, 2002 - 09:45 am     Did I explain it backwards??? totally possible... As for that finger licking thing... I yelped when I read it.. that is SO gross!!!!! My Grandmother would be mortified! |
Tabbyking | Monday, July 08, 2002 - 10:44 am     faery, when you were little did they have 'farrell's ice cream parlors'? i think that's what they were called here in california. anyway, they would make a huge sundae in a 'trough' with about 20 scoops of different flavored ice creams and various sauces, nuts, cherries, whipped cream... and everyone would take a spoon and share the big treat. i always took one bite then quit! once those slobbery spoons were digging back into 'my' area, i was done! i haven't seen a place where they have 6 or 8 kids at a birthday party share from one dish for ages. thank heaven! |
Fruitbat | Monday, July 08, 2002 - 11:17 am     Faery, I hope you know I was being silly and just telling you you are a genious. If this turns out to be wrong I am still in awe of your inner detective. |
Sadlady12 | Monday, July 08, 2002 - 03:39 pm     Wow, great work!! I have thought Bribs for a little while although since I could never find any acceptable clues I had to go with Katie or Bill, now I have my proof!! Thanks!! |
