Bali
Host:"Three people are left. Real friends. Or are they? What did they know about each other? One of them became the winner, one would lose and one... was The Mole."

Day 15 - Jimbaran
They're driving to the next location and Lottie asks how much money is in the group pot. Marc-Marie laughs and the girls ask him why. Marc-Marie:"Who has the pot?" Both girls tell him he has it. Marc-Marie:"Oh no, Angela (the host) has it, that's right, because I had in my pocket and she said that wasn't safe and then..." Yvon:"You should never do that!" Marc-Marie:"It's better to gave it to her than..." Yvon:"No you'd better keep it to yourself! Or give it to me!" Marc-Marie:"It's better to absolutely not give it too you!"

Tanah Lot
They arrive at a golf resort for the next challenge, but first they get taught how to golf.
CC
Lottie:"We got taught by a guy from Bali and he told me exactly where I should place my left thumb and my right pink and my knees and ... And that's not got for me, because I try to remember all those details and then when I have to do it, I only think about my hands and how my posture should be and it doesn't work. And I also felt a bit like a child. When I was young and something didn't work I yelled it was stupid, threw it on the ground and didn't do it anymore. And that feeling came back!"

She misses several balls while practicing. Lottie:"This is stupid! Golf is stupid!"
CC
Yvon:"During practise it went terrific! I never played golf before, but it went great! I hit one ball after the other very hard and very high."

She hits the ball and cheers, because it goes far away and she can't even see the ball anymore and cheers again!
CC
Lottie:"Especially when you hear cheering behind you and you see this ball flying away again... that's not making it any better. I constantly missed the ball, or sometimes I did slightly hit it and it fell half a meter in front of me."

After practising, it's time for the challenge. They each have to play one hole and try to get the ball in it in less than 15 hits. If they need 16 or more hits (they can try until they did 20 hits) they will get a multiple choice question. The worse they play, the more answers of that multiple choice question they have to guess from. If they answer correctly, they're still good. If all three make it, they win $ 3,000.
Marc-Marie goes first. His first hit misses the ball, which also counts as a hit. His second hit is much better though. The third time, the ball falls only one meter further. Marc-Marie:"Nah it's just practising!"
The fourth hit goes much further! But then he misses again.
CC
Marc-Marie:"I started and the first hits went very well."

He's in the rough, but the next hit brings him in the green, causing him to hit the ball much further in the following hit. But then he misses again. Yvon is laughing and talks while he's trying to hit the ball, which puts him out of his concentration and the ball falls two meters further. He then misses again, making the girls laugh.
CC
Marc-Marie:"When I missed the ball, hit next to it, it also counted as a hit. I lost a lot of hits in that and before I knew I had 20 hits and was in a sand bank."

He has to answer a mulitple choice question: Who is the most important member of a family in Bali?
Grandfather
Grandmother
Mother
Oldest son
Oldest daughter

He goes for the grandmother, because the dad wasn't named, so it wouldn't be the grandfather either and that's why he thought it was grandmother. Which is correct! They're amazed he had it right!
Lottie is next. She misses the first hit
CC
Marc-Marie:"Until then, Lottie was the worst golf player."
Lottie:"I was worthless at it. I just couldn't do it!"

Marc-Marie explains her how to hold her shoulders and hips, but then Yvon tells her not to think about it and just hit the ball. That seems to work fine!
CC
Lottie:"When Yvon gave me the perfect advice 'Don't think, just hit!' it went great!"

After a while, she is about 3 meters from the hole and still has 3 hits left to get the ball in! She hits the ball softly, which moves it closer to the hole. She hits it again, but the ball rolls over the hole! But then her next hit is in and she's succeeded! If Yvon succeeds too, they win the money!
CC
Yvon:"And there I went... I missed the ball like 26 times! Well not 26 times, but it was several times that I missed it."
Marc-Marie:"She had a difficult big hold in the middle, but found a kind of path on the side and thought she could make it."

She misses the ball again and next only gets it one meter further. But then she gets a good hit, moving it past the hole, but closer. But the hole is on a bit of a hill, so when she hits again, the ball rolls past the hole. She then misses the hole again and then it's finally in. Marc-Marie and Lottie tell her she did well. Marc-Marie is holding the flag:"My hands are full, but I would have applauded otherwise!" Yvon takes over the flag so he can applaud her.
She didn't do well enough though, because she took 20 hits. She has to answer a 5 answer multiple question now.
What's the name of every child that is born third in a family in Bali?
Ayu
Wayan
Ketut
Nyoman
Made

CC
Yvon:"I had no clue and had to guess. It could have been any one of them. I didn't know either of the words and it was a big guess."

She goes for Ayu, but that's wrong. The correct answer is Nyoman. But she gets a second chance! She gets 30 minutes to try and find someone who's called Nyoman and bring him back.
CC
Lottie:"I thought it had to be possible to find a third born child in a family!"

Yvon runs down a path and finds a group of Bali people whom she asks if anyone is called Nyoman. But they all shake their heads. She continues her search and arrives at a market where she asks several other people, but they're not called Nyoman either.
CC
Yvon:"There were a lot of tourists who weren't from Indonesia who couldn't be a Nyoman."

She finds a boy called Made, but that's not what she needs. She asks several other people and finds several Made's, Ketuts and Wayans.
CC
Yvon:"I found 100 first born childs, second born childs, but for some dark reason there was no Nyoman."

The host tells Lottie and Marc-Marie that time is up. They don't win the money and the pot stands at € 19,000. They can't believe Yvon couldn't find a Nyoman in half an hour. Marc-Marie:"We can't control whether she really did it." Lottie:"No we'll see that when we're home I guess. See her swimming in the sea or something."
Yvon arrives, sweaty and out of breath. Marc-Marie:"She seems to be very tired." She tells them she found several Ketuts, Mades and Wayans, but no Nyoman. Yvon:"I did my best." Lottie:"You weren't jumping around just to look tired afterwards?" Yvon:"No..."
CC
Lottie:"She looked very sweaty, but I really doubted her story."
Marc-Marie:"She looked so exhausted that she really has been searching."
Lottie:"I really think she should have been able to find a Nyoman, but if she's The Mole, shee has the perfect opportunity to saotage this. I don't trust it."
Marc-Marie:"I do think she really tried her best, but failed. So that's just too bad."

Later that night, they talk about the money they won. Yvon finds that they have very little money. Lottie never thought about it because it didn't seem existential. Marc-Marie thinks he's got a big chance of winning. Marc-Marie:"I think we're the silliest Mole ever, as concerned about challenges and earning money, both nationally as internationally!"
Lottie:"Why do you think that happened?"
Yvon:"Because we had a perfect Mole!"
Marc-Marie:"And I also think we're all solo players. We all have a strategy and we didn't have many people who didn't care about the game. Everyone cared about it!"

Day 16 - Balangan Beach
Tonight, The Mole will be revealed. But first they will have to do the final questionnaire consisting of 40 questions about The Mole. The contestants go through their notes, secluded on a beach and think about the game.

CC
Yvon:"I almost couldn't think of anything else the past weeks. Each time it seems like you collect pieces of information and make tunnels in your brain which lead to the solution. It's a riddle that takes 3 weeks. It's also a psychological game. Who do you trust? Who don't you trust? Who do you start an alliance with and with whom not? We did so many fun stuff!
I thought the Art challenge was fun to do! Just thinking about a concept was great about the challenge. It partially succeeded. It's not a challenge I'll forget quickly.
And the Lasergame was absolutely great! To win the exemption at such a crucial point in the game, was super!
At the very first elimination, I was the last person standing and I thought I had to go home! (but no one went, the percentage twist was introduced in episode 1 instead)
I answered that my stamina would range 2 on a scale of 10, but if I look at others, I think that 2 is still ok.
We're in the final and didn't have to do terrible things or cry a lot or anything. That's quite an achieement!

After her reflections about the game, she is aske three questions by the host.
You notice that one of your parents has an affaire with someone else. Will you make sure the other parent gets to know it?
Yvon nodds:"The same day! Without a doubt! I'll talk to that parent about it and make him tell the other one himself."

Would you be able to kill an innocent person if you were absolutely sure that that would stop all hunger in the world?
Yvon:"One person? Oh my... If all hunger would be gone? I would do it. That's millions of people."

Suppose you have to give up your place in the final round in favour of one of the eliminated contestants. Who would you choose?
Yvon:"Hmmm.... Gijs. Because I think I liked him the most out of the eliminated people. I thought he was surprisingly fun! I thought he was just a slick radio dj, but he appeared to be an honest, open, nice guy. I'd grant the final place to him the most."

CC
Marc-Marie:"If I think back when I felt very 'Who is The Mole?' it must be when I took my first step into the helicopter. That's when I really thought, this is the game! The rest of that challenge wasn't much fun, looking for keys at the beach.
The steam train was fun to do though! Afterwards they thought I was hindering the challenge, but that's rubbish!
I've been playing well on full force and highest level.
The stunt plane was fantastic to experience. I'm afraid I will look very hysterical on tv though!
I also found myself quite fun in the suitcase challenge afterwards.
It wouldn't be my own choice to go along on a trip with 9 other people, but now it turned out that of the people who were in it, I seemed to be quite a group-person.
The three of us are left now and we did all challenges and everything and I have lost myself in the game! And that's the most fun thing that could happen. I think that's why I did it!

He too gets asked questions:
Would you rather die at age 55 having your lover with you or at age 75, but all alone?
Marc-Marie:"That's not difficult, the first choice. If I know he would die tomorrow, then I'd like to die today. It might sound a bit... but I can't imagine I could live... without him."

You're offered a fantastic deal which makes you very rich, but you would never be able to do your work anymore. Do you take the deal?
Marc-Marie:"If I get very rich I think I could let my work go. I think I can live without it."

Suppose you have to give up your place in the final round in favour of one of the eliminated contestants. Who would you choose?
Marc-Marie:"That's very difficult... I think I'd choose Sander, because he was so into the game! Sander was the game! He saw hints where there were none and stuff! And that's great! I think you have to go back to a certain childish game mode to appreciate the game and he was able to do that, which was good of him."

CC
Lottie:"I enjoyed several challenges! For example the singing with the kids, Waltzing Mathilda. When we entered the classroom and saw the kids singing, I got so happy! It was a fun challenge! The second part in the stadion was fun too. I won an exemption there, so that day was wonderful.
I've acknowledged myself in several points, for example that I find a group of people tiring and it costs me a lot of energy. That was difficult and I don't think next time I'm in a group I'll think 'Oh we'll do fine!'
The most difficult elimination to me was the last elimination before the finale. It was so exciting. Angela (the host) went for Isabelle first and the first one never gets eliminated, so it was very exciting! I kept on thinking 'Red, red, red!' when she typed in Isabelle's name. Not very nice. But then the screen turned red and I was so relieved! I had never felt such relieve before!
I've had moments when I was fed up with it. With the suitcase challenge when everyone started talking through each other and then afterwards we had a questionnaire and I didn't know who to choose. It was difficult to just at random answer the questions. I had no clue.
I've gotten so close with Marc-Marie and Yvon, but it didn't sink in yet. I think we'll realize it when we get back. I know it's something special.

Her questions:
Would you commit perjury for your best friend if he got charged with a serious delinquency?
Lottie:"Hmmm... I have to lie then?Yes I would do... oh no...! Yes I would do it..."

You wake up and you have to choose between your singing and you acting talent. What do you choose?
Lottie:"Oh nooo! No! Ugh... forever? Then I keep my singing and get rid of my acting, because I think the singing fits better to me and makes me more happy than acting."

Suppose you have to give up your place in the final round in favour of one of the eliminated contestants. Who would you choose?
Lottie:"Sander. I think he deserves most after me."

The final challenge... all three contestants get together with the host and they have to guess what the other contestant answered. They start with Yvon's question. If the first three dilemma's are answered correctly, they win € 1,000 and from then on, every correctly answered dilemma is worth € 1,000. So they can win a total of € 7,000.
Lottie and Marc-Marie have to guess what Yvon answered.
Yvon notices that one of her parents has an affaire with someone else. Will she make sure the other parent gets to know it?
They both think she would tell the other parent. the host asks them how she would do it. Marc-Marie:"I think she would talk to the one that's having the affaire and make him tell the other one. That's what I think."
He's 100 % correct!

Would Yvon be able to kill an innocent person if she was absolutely sure that that would stop all hunger in the world?
They find it very difficult, but think she would do it. Marc-Marie:"She would. With her eyes closed and saying sorry, sorry, sorry, like I killed Isabelle."
Lottie agrees. If they have the next one correct, they have € 1,000.

Suppose Yvon has to give up her place in the final round in favour of one of the eliminated contestants. Who would she choose?
They go through it. Marc-Marie names the eliminated contestants and Lottie says yes or no. Yvonne? No. Victoria? No. Gijs? Maybe. Jim? No. Isabelle? No.
They doubt between Sander and Gijs. Both think she chose Sander.
Yvon:"Why?"
Silence...
Marc-Marie:"Don't tell me it's wrong."
Yvon:"It is!"
Lottie:"Gijs?"
Yvon:"Yeah!"
Marc-Marie:"Why Gijs?!"
Yvon:"Why Sander?!"
Marc-Marie:"Bring Gijs back for the third time or something?"
They're wrong. Yvon finds the other two weird. Time to switch. Lottie and Yvon have to guess what Marc-Marie answered.

Would Marc-Marie rather die at age 55 having his lover with him or at age 75, but all alone?
Both immediately say he'd die with his lover alongside with him. That's correct! Every dilemma earns them € 1,000 from now on, so they now have € 20,000 in the pot!

Marc-Marie is offered a fantastic deal which makes him very rich, but he would never be able to do his work anymore. Does he take the deal?
Yvon immediately says he wouldn't do that. Lottie doubts. Yvon:"He can't perform anymore!" Lottie:"But that's not so important to him." Yvon:"Performing is most important!" Lottie:"He once said that if he had enough money to never have to work anymore, he would stop working, because he's very lazy!"
Yvon:"But that's someone else than never performing again!" Lottie:"Oh yeah, then he never can do anything fun anymore, you're right."
But their answer is wrong.
Marc-Marie:"Lottie knows me!!"
Yvon:"Would you do that?!!!"
Marc-Marie:"Who wouldn't? If you have tons of money and never have to work anymore?!"
Lottie:"I thought you two knew each other so well?!"
Yvon:"Yeah but I don't believe him! I think he didn't think about it himself well enough before answering!"

Suppose Marc-Marie has to give up his place in the final round in favour of one of the eliminated contestants. Who would he choose?
Yvon:"Well Sander apparently..." Lottie agrees. They're right. € 21,000 in the pot.
Marc-Marie:"He played the game, Yvon!"
Yvon:"But it was about who you would grant it!"
Marc-Marie:"Yeah but granting it to someone, it's about the game, I mean... I grant it to my aunt too."
Yvon:"Yeah but I granted it to Gijs more."
Marc-Marie:"Ok, never mind."

Marc-Marie and Yvon now have to guess Lottie's answers.
Would Lottie commit perjury for her best friend if she got charged with a serious delinquency?
They both think she wouldn't. Marc-Marie:"If her friend did something wrong, she would think he'd have to deal with the consequences himself."
Lottie:"I answered I would try to do that." (laughs)
Marc-Marie:"No, are you serious? For rape or something?!" Yvon:"You would lie in court for that?!!"
Lottie:"Yeah but she rephrased the question and said 'What's more important to you? Friendship or honesty in court?'! But it was very difficult to choose from."

Lottie wakes up and has to choose between her singing and her acting talent. What does she choose?
Yvon thinks she would keep acting, because the chance of earning money with singing is smaller. Marc-Marie persuades her though, which is good and they win € 1,000, so they now have € 22,000 in the pot.

And the last question is answered correctly too, they think she would let Sander come back. So the amount of money the winner will get is € 23,000.

Final Suspicions
Marc-Marie:"It's Yvon. I'm not even doubting anymore! If you're still doubting at thisstage I think you deserve to be dragged behind a horse to the airport. If you're so far into the game and still doubt. That's impossible. If you're in the final round, that means you've gotten closer to the correct answer. So I'm not doubting. Not a moment. I might just win and that wouldn't even be undeserved!"
Yvon:"Very exciting! I've written everything down. My journal is filled with details and I'm good at learning rows of facts by heart. I think winning might differ with one or two questions, so everything is important and I have to be quick. I'm going for Lottie 100 %. My journal is filled with everything about her. What did she wear, what did she eat, what's her favourite holiday destination. Everything! I'm sure she's it. I could win this!" 
Lottie:"I thought for a very long time Yvon couldn't be it. It might sound silly but she had become a bit of a friend and I disregarded her. My feeling says she's The Mole and that would mean I'm up against Marc-Marie and he's so well at this. I think all three of us are strong contenders. It's going to be exciting!"

Suspicious in this episode
Marc-Marie and Yvon take more than 15 hits on the golf course and have to answer a multiple choice question.
Yvon doesn't answer her multiple choice question correctly and has to find someone called Nyoman. But she doesn't succeed.
Yvon would like Gijs to take her place in the final, which the others find weird.
Yvon is wrong several times when guessing what the others answered.
Lottie says hse would lie in court!

Revealing of the winner, the mole and the loser...
The contestants walk in the garden of a temple towards the host. Who will win the € 23,000 and who is The Mole?
