The Norwegian Mole 3
Episode 9

Solveig, the oldest woman of the group, got eliminated. Six people remain. One of them is The Mole.

Day 17 - Vistoria
Tone finds an envelope with instructions, telling them to go to the Victoria Fire Department. The challenge will have something to do with their journal and the cylinder they got in episode 1.

Having arrived, they are told to put their journals in a big iron bowl. Next the host will ask them each a quetion, which they have to answer correctly. They are only allowed to make one mistake. If they make more, the journals will be set on fire.
The first question is for Ingrid. The host asks her which song the band played at the campfire party on the ranch after the bullfighting challenge. Flashback of the band playing "Sweet Home Alabama
Ingrid doesn't know and doesn't even guess. One question incorrect already.
Next question is for Tone. Something about last episode's elimination. Tone gives an incorrect answer. Two mistakes already with only two questions asked. The journals are set on fire. All their information is gone.

Next they stand around a table. They each draw a card in turn and then turn it around one by one. The person with the highest card has to select someone to go outside with the cylinder, where the host opens it and gives them the piece of paper which is in the cylinder. It contains instructions on the challenge they have to do. The last one standing will get an exemption.
Mohamed has a king in the first draw and chooses Tone.She has a white piece of paper and has to go to the car on the right.
Ingrid has an ace in the second draw and selects Petter. He also has a white piece of paper and goes to the same car.
Cathrine wins the third draw with a jack and chooses to expell Ingrid. She has a green paper and has to go to the left car.
Mohamed has a king again in the fourth draw and goes for Anette, who has a white paper.
Cathrine wins the final round and has no choice but chosing Mohamed, who has a green piece of paper. Cathrine also has a green paper and an exemption. She doesn't have to do her challenge.
The two groups (white paper and green paper) are taken to their locations for the challenge.
Tone, Petter and Anette have to lay down in a crate with their arms and legs bound for five minutes. All three of them have to do it to win 20,000 NOK. Something will be put with them, but they don't know what.
Tone is first. Then it turns out rats are put in the crate. The host puts a naked rat on her chest and she screams and shakes the rat off her body. Next, an entire bucket of rats is poured over her face. She shakes them all off and hides her mouth under her sweater.

Meanwhile, Ingrid and Mohamed are taken on a boat. They go whale sighting out on sea.

Tone stays in the crate for 5 minutes. Two more to go to win the money. Petter is next. He's wearing shorts, exposing his bare legs for the rats to crawl on. He accepts the challenge and stays in the entire 5 minutes. Anette is last to go and she does it too. She says the rats are smelly, but stays in the crate all the time.

Mohamed and Ingrid had a nice challenge.But now they're all together, the host asks them a question about something they should have seen or noticed on the boat. Neither of them know the answer. They don't win 20,000 NOK. Instead, 20,000 NOK is taken from the kitty! Tone, Petter and Anette had an encouter with the rats in vain.

Later that night, they have a new challenge to do. There's a pole with 6 ropes attached to it. They have to sit around the pole and try to keep it standing by holding the ropes. If the pole is still standing up after 4 hours, they win 30,000 NOK. They can't see the pole, because the room is completely dark.
All goes well. After 45 minutes, they are all laughing and talking. But they are getting tired. They're playing some game to stay awake. One hour and 4 minutes remaining and because they're laughing about something, the pole starts shaking. They manage to get it under control. Then Petter pulls the rope and the pole falls down. It seems as though Petter did it as a joke. He and Anette are laughing. Anette can hardly stop laughing. The others are devastated. They tried their best to make the challenge succeed and then Petter knocks it over for fun? Cathrine is telling him something about having respect for each other. No money won.

Day 18 - Victoria
The next morning they are still talking about last night's challenge. Cathrine seems to be angry at Petter.
Their luggage is locked up somewhere in a safe. They to divide into 3 groups of two.
Group 1:

Tone                    Petter
They have two phones and more instructions about where the other two teams have to go to. Each of the other two teams has to follow a different route and finish at the place the luggage is at. They have to go to 4 stops and get 20 minutes to get to each stop. In total they have one hour and a half to get to the luggage. They can win 35,000 NOK.

Group 2:

Ingrid                   Cathrine

Group 3:

Anette                  Mohamed

Tone calls Ingrid and Cathrine to tell them to go to Fiscard Street. She also tells them they need the know the amount of provinces in Canada. That number will be a number of the safe their luggage is at. They start running immediately. Petter calls group 3 to tell them where to go. They too start running.
Ingrid and Cathrine are running down a street. Cathrine asks someone where Fiscard Street is and they have to go back, because they're running into the wrong direction. A bit further they ask someone to name some of the provinces in Canada. He gives them 3, but they have to continue. They find a ringing phone booth in Fiscard Street in Chinatown. Tone tells them they should have some words for her. Ingrid searches through the phone booth and finds an envelope with some words.
Mohamed and Anette are already at the phone booth near the harbour and waiting for it to ring. They have already found the envelope. Petter calls them and they tell him the information they found.
Ingrid and Cathrine run to the next phone booth. They have 20 minutes to get there and a total of one hour 12 minutes and 22 seconds, which means they found the first phone booth in 17 minutes, sparing them 3 minutes. They now need to know the number of time zones. Cathrine asks someone, as they are waiting for a traffic light to turn green. When it's green, Ingrid immediately starts running, but Cathrine listens to the guy, who tells her he thinks there are about 5 or 6 time zones and 11 provinces.

Anette and Mohamed have reached the next phone booth. They find the envelope already, but someone is using the phone. This way Petter can't call them. Mohamed asks if he can use the phone. He's on his knees, begging.
The two girls have foudn the next phone booth too, but don't find an envelope. A beggar is sitting next to it. They ask him if he could move a little and search aroudn the entire phone booth. Then they ask if he has seen an envelope. "Yeah, I have it."
Mohamed finds a key and gives it to Anette. The phone is ringing and he answers. It's Ingrid. They had to call group 3. Mohamed doesn't understand when Ingrid is talking about sabotage, but then she explains that it's an email address she had to give them: [email protected] and some numbers underneath it too.
They hang up. Mohamed asks someone how many time zones there are in Canada. But the phone rings and he answers it. He tells them the hotmail address and Petter gives him the street where Ingrid and Cathrine have to go to. Petter already fills in the address on the laptop. Mohamed calls Ingrid and tells her to go to Yates street.
Mohamed and Anette go to the car which they can use with the key they found. Mohamed is racing the streets and ignores a red light. Anette is silently laughing. We can see it, but Mohamed doesn't.
Ingrid and Cathrine arrive at the next phone too late. Two pieces of the luggage are taken away, because they didn't make it to the phone in time. They find the payphone, with more instructions. Tone calls them with a new question.
Mohamed and Anette can't find the phone booth. They arrive late and another two items are taken away from their luggage. They find an envelope with a letter "Pick up your luggage here". Petter calls them and they ask where to go, using the instructions they got. They drive to the next location. A car is driving slowly and Mohamed overtakes it on the left side. The car honks at them. Mohamed:"Fuck you." putting his middle finger in the air. They have to get to the Parliament Building. Ingrid and Cathrine arrive there with 4 minutes to spare. Tone and Petter arrive too. They're waiting for Mohamed and Anette. They arrive after a while and try to open the safe. The first try fails so they try again. Cathrine cracks the code and they open the safe.
Then they find that some luggage is gone. Most of it is from Petter. But they don't win the money, because the law has been broken several times. Mohamed ignored a red traffic light two times and overtook a car on the right side instead of the left side.

They haven't won any money in the entire episode. They even lost 20,000 NOK in the cylinder challenge. They are back to 157,000 NOK.
