Discoinferno | Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 01:23 pm     I still have a hunch Lisa wins. |
Car54 | Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 01:28 pm     Lisa is back hawking beer at Comisky Park. Someone over at the SS board met her at a game and it sounded like she has no idea who wins. |
Car54 | Wednesday, June 05, 2002 - 08:47 pm     Lisa's Execution Interview: Mole 2: The Next Betrayal Execution Interview with Lisa page 1 of 3 We had to wait a bit, but it was worth it! Lisa was executed on the third episode of Mole 2: The Next Betrayal, and ABC.com had the chance to sit down with this lawyer/beer vendor and talk about her play. Here is the transcript from that exclusive interview. Whose diary did you get when everyone had to switch diaries, and was there any shocking revelation in the diary? I got Bill's, and quite frankly, it was useless. It was written as a letter to his wife, and I think his diary was like everyone else's, where from moment to moment, he had a different idea who the Mole was, and he wrote it down. There was no full-scale analysis, it just was this, "honey, here's what I'm thinking at any given moment." And I felt like I was eavesdropping, because here was this intimate letter to his wife, and I didn't even know her. I read it with a grain of salt. Was there anything in your diary that you didn't want anyone to read? No. What I did was keep track of how I was doing on all of the quizzes, and I tried to eliminate who the Mole could be based on how many I got right. But I was afraid of someone taking my diary, not giving it up willingly, so I had three versions of all of my answers, and two versions of where everyone sat, so it would be useless to anyone. Heather got my journal, and she came up and told me that it was useless, so I feel like at least I accomplished that. Do you regret tricking Darwin and Katie in episode 2? No. In fact when I did it, my thought about Darwin was that he'd want to be in the room instead of hearing about it second-hand. If you hadn't received the exemption, do you think you would have been executed in episode 2? It's hard to say. I think I had a 50-50 shot. Exemptions early in the game mean the world. Unless you have it figured out, you're just playing the odds, and so is everyone else, which is why there was a tie in the third execution. Were the locals helpful during the games? The locals weren't involved in a lot of the games I was involved in. The game that we brought them in on was the Clothesline game, and Rob and I went into a lot of bars and asked them where the train station was, and they all would point to the signs right outside with a picture of the train on it. They were helpful, but if we were more observant, we wouldn't have had to bother them. How has the game impacted your life since the show first aired? It hasn't affected my life very much, other than I have this cool experience that other people don't. One thing that happens now is that people recognize me, and people will come up to me when I'm selling beer in Comiskey Park, which is pretty cool. What's up with selling beer in Comiskey? You know, it's a great time. I had some time last summer when I decided to do it — I go to thirty games a year anyway, so I figured I'd get a chance to be outside, get some exercise, and make a little coin on the side, so I go, I have a great time, and I make some money. Did you really have to give up your job in the Attorney General's office to play The Mole, and how did you get it back? Yes. I had enough vacation time to take me through two weeks, so the paperwork wasn't going to go through until two weeks after my departure date. So I called from Switzerland immediately after being executed and said "don't put the paperwork through tomorrow." They said they'd think about it, and when I came back, I had to promise that I would never go on another reality TV show again, and they gave me my job back. Do you wish you had begged Al for the exemption? That was the point of that game, and no one begged but Patrick. And Patrick did beg. You know, I had a brief conversation with Al in which we discussed the fact that I already had an exemption, and it was pretty clear I was not going to get the exemption. I thought he was going to give it to Bill, and everything they did leading up to it indicated Bill was going to get it, so I didn't think it was worth my time. During the quiz, what slowed you up to make you lose the tie? I did not take the quiz slowly. I actually went through it really quickly. I can't remember my time, but I think it was a minute-thirty, which is pretty quick for ten questions when you think about it. The separation between me and the next person was less than a second. I really didn't feel slow. In fact, when Anderson said there was a tie, and it's the slowest person, my initial thought was that I may have tied, but I wasn't the slowest. Going back to episode 1: were you really worried about your bags being burned? Oh yeah. I was convinced more than any other person on the show that they were burned. I had a prescription in my bag, and I figured I'd ask them for it as a test. They made me go to a hospital in Switzerland to get it filled, and at that point, I was convinced they had burned our bags. What was your strategy going into the game, and how did it backfire? My strategy was to make as many alliances as I possibly could to learn as much as possible, and trust myself to figure out who was lying and who was telling the truth. I spread myself to thin; I didn't get to trust as many people as I thought I would. What was the hardest part of the game for you? Playing the odds, then focusing on one or two suspects and sticking with it. The thing that viewers don't see is is just how difficult the game is. Everyone's trying to be the Mole, everyone's trying to deflect attention away from who they think is the Mole, and yet you still have to earn money for the team. It's very hard!

Mlans | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 01:19 pm     Just wanted to add my two cents...
I saw Lisa at Comiskey back on April 13, before the show restarted. My wife and I were lucky enough to remember what she looked like. I have a picture of her selling Pepsi that day at the park. Here's a link to a larger picture.
Here's Lisa pouring me a beer on July 6 at Comiskey. My wife and I haven't seen her since back in April. Our seats are along the first-base side, and Lisa said she's usually out in left field. So, while she was pouring me a beer, we talked briefly. Anderson hasn't taken her up on a game (she says he's rarely in Chicago and she doesn't think he's a baseball fan). The finale was taped back in October, shortly after the show was pulled (I didn't want to pry into the "who is The Mole" issue - sounded a bit too "stalkerish"). We mentioned how much we enjoyed the Elavia being bought episode, and she thought that was way cool. Then she said that she was in a hotel watching the show before it aired, and started screeming when that happened. What she didn't know was Elavia was in the room next to her and pounded on the wall yelling "Wasn't that cool?!??!" Her boyfriend has the same weekend season ticket package as we do, but his seats are along the third base line (perhaps that's why she's over there more often). Here's a link to a larger picture. |
