The Mole

"Who is the traitor?"

The Mole has had five seasons of its Australian version, with the latter two taking place overseas in New Caledonia and New Zealand respectively. It is a reality television program with a twist. Not only does it not contain a public vote, but one of the 'contestents' on the show is trying to do everything in his or her power to prevent the others from winning the money on offer. It is up to the real contestents to work out who this person is, and the one who knows the least about their identity, as calculated through a computer quiz, is eliminated from the show. But who is this traitor? Who is the saboteur? Who is the mole?

The first challenge - dropping water bombs onto a target from a paraglider, doesn't go well as only Alaina gets a hit. Bob, who was betting on the success, does better. Alaina, Bob & Ann-Maree have to take pictures to represent different letters of the alphabet (e.g. B=bridge, a Y shaped track in the road). The letters spell out BETRAY but Crystal-Rose and Marc, who have to guess what it is, don't get it right. The three others also have to tell what Crystal and Marc have painted on a sports oval. While Ann-Maree thinks it is a platypus, Alaina convinces her and Bob it is a mole and they lose money. It was, in fact, a platypus. As the contestants voice their suspicions, they fill out the questionnaire. Both Alaina and Marc are certain it is Crystal-Rose and Bob agrees with them but also thinks Alaina is a good suspect. Ann-Maree suspects Bob (whom Marc has ruled out) and Crystal is torn between Alaina and Marc although she suspects Marc more.
