29.19-Dese shoes were not made for running


The last time, the contestants had to try and break progressively stronger boards. They managed to earn 44/160 points, bringing the pot to 1050/1840 points. Savannah managed to persuade everyone to let her see her results again, revealing that she was first. Is Joe really the Mole, or is Savannah not letting on?

***



Savannah: "Where's my journal?"


Milan: "Are you sure you put it in dere?"
Savannah: "Yes, I always hide it in my clothes."


Savannah: "Did you take it?"
Milan: "I have better taste in fashion."
Savannah; "My lingerie is missing."


Savannah: "Yours too! Where did they go?"
Milan: "What? Dis is serious."


Savannah: "We have a pervert among us."


Milan: "I will go and question everybody."


Joe: "Do you think I'm a mediocre loser?"


Joe: "I even let Brandon trick me into thinking he kidnapped my children."
Edward: "I think it is great that you are happy with your lot."


Edward: "I want to escape poverty but I can't because I lack any other skills. But you are leading a comfortable life. If you don't want to aim for more, that is also fine. There is no need to force yourself. He tried to bribe me into leaving but I do not take easy money."


Joe: "I think he's desperate to try and get us all out so that he'll be the default winner. He probably doesn't think that Savannah is the Mole."


Joe: "It's not surprising. She's sly and always covering up."
Edward: "Uh, yes, Savannah..."


Fred: "Will you give us the recording?"
Brandon: "No."


Fred: "Why not?"
Cairo: "There's no need to negotiate with douches like him."


Brandon: "Fight me then."


Fred: "I will not let myself go into another scandal. If I punch first I am in the wrong."


Brandon: "Not afraid I'll break those glasses of yours?"


Fred: "I only want the recording. What good is it if you destroy me?"


Brandon: "I just want to see you crash and burn."


Cairo: "There's no need to waste your saliva."


Cairo: "He's just afraid of others being better than him."
Fred: "Are you sure?"


Fred: "Anybody can be successful if they work hard enough."
Brandon: "Please, that's rubbish. There's something called 'innate talent'."


Cairo: "I've had enough of you. Just so you know, I managed to get the audio clip already."
Brandon: "Sure."


Fred: "Why did you not tell me?"


Cairo: "Why don't you believe me? You hid it in your pillow."


Brandon: "So you trespassed and looked into my personal belongings without permission? You're a thief."


Cairo: "I am not a thief!"


Cairo: "You can't accuse me of something I didn't do!"


Brandon: "Your parents must be so disappointed in you."
Cairo: "Yeah, yeah, whatever. Just know that you can't touch us now. I've long destroyed the 'evidence'."


Fred: "Hmm, there it is."


Brandon: "What are you doing?"
Fred: "I saw you glancing here. There is a bug. Are you trying to incriminate us again?"
Brandon: "Mind your own damn business."
Fred: "This is my business. I will not let you bully anybody."

"Contestants, it is time for your final mission. This will test how well you know one another. One by one, you will enter a maze. In various parts of the maze are questions along with a contestant's potrait. You must put the potrait of the contestant which answers the question being asked. However, to get a potrait, you must take another one down. Once you leave the maze, you cannot return. Each contestant gets thirty minutes in the maze. If you are still in the maze after 30 minutes, the portraits will be reset to its original places. Good luck. This is worth 160 points, 20 for every correct question."


Fred: "After discussion we decided to let Savannah go first because she is adventurous. We then let Joe go next. I am happy because I do not trust him to do a good job so he should go earlier."

***


Savannah: "Here I go."


Savannah: "Alright."


Savannah: "Do I turn left or right?"


Savannah: "It seems counter-intuitive but I think the exit must be on the left."


Savannah: "There's a small apeture here."


Savannah: "I see Brandon's photo."


Savannah: "Whose uncle has schizophrenia? That's easy. It's Edward. Where is his photo?"


Savannah: "I should take Brandon's photo down first in case I need him later."


Savannah: "All these small walkways."


Savannah: "Hey, it's me! Let's see the question. Who tried to create a scandal for Fred? I don't know."


Savannah: "I can't be carrying more than one photo at a time. I should put Brandon's one in. I know I'm not the answer."


Savannah: "Oh, Cairo is here. Which contestant's hair has three colours? I think Fred dyed his hair but I don't think there were three colours, unless you're talking about shades...I think it's Milan. I shall leave Cairo's photo here then since it's definitely not me."


Savannah: "The hard part isn't trying to get out of the maze or answer the questions. It's finding the right photo."


Savannah: "Oh, Fred's photo. Which contestant is Muslim? Isn't that Cairo? Great, I have to run back to get it. Where was it again? I remember a dead end..."


Savannah: "I think it was this way."


Savannah: "Finally."


Savannah: "Looks like I'll have to put my face here. Now time to get back."


Savannah: "There we go."
"15 minutes left."


Savannah: "Oh dear. Boo, another dead end."


Savannah: "I need to find a way out quick."


Savannah: "I'll go this way."


Savannah: "Oh? So I can input who I think the Mole is, and if I'm right I can add 10 points to the pot but if I'm wrong I incur a 10 points penalty? I'm confident that the Mole is Joe. Now where is his name?"


Savannah: "Say bye to 10 points, Joe."


Savannah: "Edward! There you are. What's your question...who has two children?"


Savannah: "Pretty sure Joe is the only one married. But I have to answer Fred for now."


Savannah: "Hey, didn't see you here. Which contestant exercises with a cap on? I'm not sure about this one."
"5 minutes left!"
Savannah: "I have to hurry. Looks like I won't have time to put your photo in the right place. Where is the starting point?"


Savannah: "Okay, I'm here. Now I have to go left."


Savannah: "At last."


Savannah: "In you go Edward. Now I must get out of here!"


"1 minute left."


Savannah: "I need to double up."


Savannah: "Gah! A dead end."


Savannah: "Is it this way out?"


"5...4..."
Savannah: "The exit!"


Savannah: "I'm out! Phew."


Savannah: "Oh, what's this?"


Savannah: "I have cameras in the maze?"


Savannah: "When I got out of the maze, there was a small pagoda. There was a map of the maze there without the location of the questions and a screen where I can see Joe's movements. This made it easier to direct him."


Joe: "My turn at last. I wonder why I have to have this camera on me though when Savannah didn't."


Savannah: "Joe, this is Savannah. I can see where you are right now. Turn right."


Joe: "Okie-dokie."


Joe: "Hey, I see Cairo's question here."
Savannah: "I see that to. I already answered it. Keep moving on."


Joe: "Savannah could see where I was going and she said she had a map of the maze. She didn't want me touching any question she's already answered. She didn't even give me time to read the questions. This is suspicious."


Savannah: "Tell me if you run into a question."
Joe: "Can't you see it?"
Savannah: "No. Unless you are nearby."


Savannah: "Okay, where are you now?"
Joe: "Did you just get lost with a map with you?"


Savannah: "Don't panic. Just turn, er, left."


Joe: "Hey, I see my handsome face."
Savannah: "Perfect. Now take it down."
Joe: "What?"


Savannah: "Take it down."
Joe: "Fine."


Joe: "Which contestant has a cap on? I'm not sure about this one. I think Milan wears a cap when she exercises. Pretty sure I've seen her with one before."

Savannah: "Keep going forward."


Joe: "Oh, it's a dead end. And a question."


Joe: "Who has a black belt in Simfu?"
Savannah: "That's me! I didn't see that question when I was in there."


Joe: "I'll take her portrait down and put mine up."


Savannah: "You don't...nevermind. I put my portrait at the question about three colours of hair. Just keep looking for questions and read them to me."
"15 minutes left."


Joe: "Pretty strange to have a lone wall."
Savannah: "Wait, don't go there--"


Joe: "Oh."


Joe: "Sorry Savannah. I don't really trust you."


Savannah: "Did you just put me down? Thanks a lot, Joe."
Joe: "No hard feelings."
Savannah: "I reached there when I was running out of time...just keep moving, Joe."


Joe: "I see the exit. Should I make a run for it?"
Savannah: "Yes. Wait, no! You still have a portrait with you."


Savannah: "If you're at the exit it makes things a whole lot easier. Okay, turn back, go straight then turn right."


Joe: "I'm back at the empty portrait."


Savannah: "Just put Paula's one down and go."
"5 minutes left."
Savannah: "Go back the way you came from to the exit."
Joe: "Which is?"



Savannah: "Okay, turn around, then go right..."


Joe: "I'm out."


Joe: "What was going on back there? You lost me halfway and didn't let me answer any questions properly."


Savannah: "I'm not going to let you sabotage, Joe."
Joe: "And I'm not going to let you sabotage. Give me that walkie-talkie."
Savannah: "No. I want to continue directing Paula."
Joe: "And do the same thing again? Did you forget that we couldn't even find your portrait?"
Savannah: "Fine. You take the walkie-talkie. I direct, you just repeat to Paula."

***


Paula's turn.
Joe: "Turn left."


Savannah: "Tell her to go all the way to the end then turn left."
Joe: "What? You're directing her to a dead end!"
Savannah: "That's where all the questions are."


Paula: "I'm in this huge-ass open space."
Savannah: "I don't see that here...do you?"
Joe: "Nope."


Savannah: "Do you see any questions or photos?"
Paula: "None."


Paula: "Wait, there's one. Which contestant's hair has three colours? Pretty sure it's not you, Armpit."
Savannah: "We found my portrait!"
Joe: "Take it down. I'll tell you where to put it."


Paula: "I'm at another dead end. You all better be giving me good directions."


Paula: "The question here is 'Who tried to create a scandal for Fred?' and the answer is Brandon. Sounds about right."

Savannah: "I left it there. I didn't know where to put him."
Joe: "That's not the right answer, according to Savannah. Take it and then turn back. Put it where Savannah originally was."


Paula: "You sure about that? Brandon definitely doesn't have 3 colours."
Joe: "It's better than taking any portraits out of the maze. In case you forget. Or we do."


Paula: "Fine. Methhead, Brandon's here. Now where?"
Joe: "Er, go straight down to the end and turn left."


Paula: "I'm back at the starting point again."
Joe: "Walk to the end."

***


"15 minutes left."


Savannah: "I think she's over here. I'm mentally tracing her route out."
Joe: "Paula, turn left."


Paula: "This is tiring."


Paula: "I see Joe here. And this question is about the black belt in Simfu."


Joe: "Put Savannah down."
Paula: "I'm not going to euthanise her...it's a joke."
Joe: "Is she down yet?"
Paula: "Yea, yea, now what?"


Joe: "Just keep finding dead ends."
Paula: "Helpful."


"5 minutes left."
Paula: "I'm at a crossroads. Which way do I go?"


Savannah: "She needs to stand back. All I'm seeing is a wall."
Joe: "I think she's over here. Paula, go right."


Paula: "Well, what do we have here."
Savannah: "Joe! You led her there?"


Paula: "It's definitely Whitwashed Boy Toy."
Savannah: "Looks like we're getting a whole lot of penalties."


Joe: "Paula, you're running out of time. Turn right."


Paula: "And I am out of here."


Joe: "Welcome home."


Savannah: "So, none of us saw Milan's photo. There must be somewhere we missed."
Paula: "I don't think I went to that part of the map."
Joe: "I think you've been very disoriented. You definitely been there."


Joe: "Fred? Why is it you? Isn't it supposed to be Brandon?"
Fred: "He said I should go first."
Joe: "And you let him?"


Joe: "Fred, go left and walk staright."


Fred: "I do not think Brandon has dyed hair."
Joe: "Remove it. It's not supposed to be there."


Joe: "Stop. Turn left and walk straight ahead."


Fred: "I see you here, Joe. Who created a scandal for me?"
Joe: "You know this best, Fred. Who is it?"


Fred: "Brandon Alridge."

***

"15 minutes left."
Savannah: "The left has been covered already right? So we need to focus on the right."
Joe: "Go staright in, Fred."


Fred: "There is nothing here."
Joe: "Okay, get out and then turn that way."


Joe: "Then turn left and left again."
Paula: "He should be here around now."
Savannah: "Wasn't it here?"


Fred: "There is a question here. Paula does not wear a hat while exercising. I wear a hat while exercising."


Fred: "But I only have Joe's portrait."
Joe: "Put it down first."

***


Joe: "Fred stop! Everyone so far put down a different Mole. Who is your Mole?"
Fred: "I do not want to reveal it."


Paula: "We're going to see it anyway, dumbass. Unless he chooses to walk away from it."
Savannah: "Ask him if it's you, me or Brandon."
Joe: "You can input a name if it's Savannah, me or Brandon."


Fred: "Okay."
Joe: "You suspect me? What did I ever do? Nevermind. Just go down that way."
Fred: "Which way?"

***


"5 minutes left."
Fred: "But Paula does not answer this question."
Joe: "Just put her down there and get out."


Joe: "Turn left! Quick!"
Fred: "I see my portrait."
Joe: "Too late for that. Turn right."


Joe: "Am I in time?"


Savannah: "Yes. Come on guys. We need to beat the Mole."


Joe: "Maybe too many cooks spoil the broth."
Paula: "Our primary aim now should be to find Milan. So elusive."
Savannah: "I agree. And if we have time, take Fred out to where he's supposed to be."

***


Joe: "Turn right."


Brandon: "I see Cairo."
Joe: "That's correct; leave it."

Brandon: "No it's not. I'm Muslim."


Paula: "Pretty sure that Whitwashed Boy Toy has sinned so many times that he doesn't have the right to claim a religion."
Fred: "Indeed."
Joe: "Just go on, Brandon."


Joe: "You should be running in zig-zag formation."
Brandon: "I'm not."


Fred: "He's lying."
Paula: "He must be lying about the religion too."
Savannah: "He's asking for a beating."
Joe: "Brandon, I am in charge right now. You do not touch anything. Your job is to find Milan's portrait. Understood?"
Paula: "You've never been in charge before, have you? You've got to sock it to him for him to listen."


Brandon: "I see your portrait, Joe."
Joe: "Leave it there."
Brandon: "Why? You exercise with a cap on?"
Joe: "Your task is to find Milan. It would have been Fred's if you didn't change the order last minute."


Joe: "Turn left."


Savannah: "He should be passed that dead end. I think that's the one with my portrait."
Fred: "There is a small opening here."
Savannah: "Oh, you're right. I think he can go in that way."
Joe: "Brandon, you should see a small hole. Go in that way. Brandon? Crap, I'm losing signal."
Paula: "Expected. He must be tinkering with the thing."
Fred: "The screen is black."


Brandon: "They are annoying as f***. I said 'flies' for all you kiddies at home."


Brandon: "Oh, Fred..."


Brandon: "There goes your portrait. I don't believe you have children anyway. Unless...scandalous."


Brandon: "Oh, this is the exit. I'm not done yet."


Brandon: "I think I'll go left."


Brandon: "Savannah."


Brandon: "Makes more sense for an Asian to have a black belt, isn't it?"

***


"15 minutes left."


Brandon: "Milan, they were looking all over for you. And I found you first."


Brandon: "Mmm, let me lick those tits of yours..."
"No oral defecation of Smole property, Brandon."


Brandon: "Fine, whatever. I'll just put Savannah in here."

***


"5 minutes left."
Brandon: "Damn it. A dead end."


Brandon: "I think this was where I got Fred."


Brandon: "Don't say I'm not being nice. I won't bring Milan home. I like gentle girls anyway."


Brandon: "And that's it."

***


Joe: "Left."
Cairo: "Do I take the first left or second left? Or third?"


Joe: "Erm, the first. Wait."
Brandon: "I heard that, Brandon. You're delaying Cairo."
Savannah: "Be quiet."
Paula: "Remind Cairo that he needs to look for Milan's portrait and Fred's."


Cairo: "It's a dead end. I'll take the second one."


Cairo: "It's me. Yup, I'm Muslim, though it's more by name."


Cairo: "Joe, do I take this dark path?"

Joe: "Err...what's over there again?"
Fred: "I do not know."
Savannah: "I forgot. You're talking about here, right? Near the entrance."
Cairo: "Hurry up. Whatever, I'm going in."


Cairo: "It's a dead end."


Cairo: "Joe, I see your portrait here."


Joe: "Go. Your job is merely to find Milan."
Cairo: "Are you sure? Okay then..."


Cairo: "Oh...can you guys see this?"
Joe: "The whole thing."
Cairo: "Then...erm...I'm not going to do it."


Paula: "Oh, how secretive."
Brandon: "I didn't see that there."
Savannah: "Good thing too."
Joe: "Good choice. Just keep moving on."


"15 minutes left."
Cairo: "I'm going in this small alley, guys."


Cairo: "I'm going this way."


Cairo: "I see Savannah here."


Paula: "Huh? I don't think I put it there."
Brandon: "Hmm..."
Savannah: "That's not right. What's the question?"


Cairo: "Which contestant was a suspect in the death of Esther Masik?"
Joe: "We've never been there before. Brandon, did you move the portraits around?"


Joe: "Turn right."


Cairo: "I didn't know Fred is a master of Simfu."


Savannah: "That's the black belt question. He should be putting me down."
Joe: "He's not. Are you, Fred?"
Fred: "No."
Joe: "It should be Savannah."


Cairo: "That's right. Lucky I have her with me."
Joe: "Right. Cairo, put Fred where you found Savannah."

***


"5 minutes left."
Cairo: "It's a plain dead end."


Cairo: "Stop sending me to dead ends if you've got nothing better to do."
Joe: "Sorry...get out of there."


Cairo: "Do you see what I see?"
Joe: "Yes, it's me. We can locate you now. Turn left, then straight, then left."

***


Cairo: "I see Milan's portarit here. And this question is about who has 2 children. That's you, Joe."
Joe: "The exit is near."
Cairo: "Are you sure? I can go back and swap the portraits."
Joe: "There's no time. Just leave. The other two will do it."


Cairo: "Okay, I am out of the maze."


Cairo: "Joe, let me take over. You guys were slow at times."
Joe: "I was doing fine."


Cairo: "The signal felt choppy at times."
Paula: "Oh? Did you tamper with the walkie-talkie?"
Joe: "It works both way, you know. I know my buttons."
Cairo: "So you're accusing me of lying?"
Savannah: "Just give him the walkie-talkie, Joe. You can take a break."
Joe: "I don't want to take a break."


Brandon: "He's being such a baby. Just let Joe continue. Or let me."
Paula: "You? No way, Boy Toy."
Brandon: "Do I need to say please?"


Fred: "I think it would be good to rotate."
Joe: "Fine. You can be in charge of communication. Maybe I can mark out where each question is."


Fred: "I am already doing that. Sorry."
Joe: "Fine. I'll watch the screen with you even though we don't need that many."


Savannah: "We need to coordinate to make things run more efficiently."

Fred: "I believe my portraits is here now and Milan's is here, by the exit. Joe is on that wall here."
Joe: "Should we send him to that part of the maze where you can input your Mole suspect?"
Savannah: "That's too dangerous. Let's not risk it."

***


Edward: "Hello? Who is there?"
Cairo: "It is me, Cairo. If you follow as I say you should be out in no time."


Cairo: "First, turn left."


Edward: "I see Paula."
Cairo: "Good. Remove her portrait."


Edward: "She definitely does not have multi-coloured hair."


Cairo: "Now turn right."


Edward: "I see Joe."
Cairo: "We'll come back to it later. For now, turn right."


Edward: "Which way now?"
Cairo: "Er...right."


Edward: "Fred is here."


Joe: "What's the question again?"
Cairo: "Edward, read out the question."
Edward: "Which contestant was a suspect in the death of Esther Masik?"
Paula: "He should know this one. It's me. But I am not the killer."
Brandon: "Didn't you say--"
Paula: "Shut up, Whitewashed Boy Toy."


Edward: "Is it Paula?"
Cairo: "Yes. Replace Fred's portrait with Paula's."


Edward: "Which way now?"
Cairo: "Hang on...straight. Go to Joe's portrait."


Edward: "I am here. Who exercises with a cap on?"


Cairo: "It's Fred."
Edward: "Makes sense."

***


Edward: "Milan is here. Who has 2 children?"


Edward: "This one is Joe."
Edward: "Now turn around and turn left."


Cairo: "He should be here around now...turn right at the end, Edward."


Edward: "I am at the question about the dyed hair."
Cairo: "Put Milan in."
Edward: "I thought she only had two, but if you're sure."
Cairo: "You're done now."
"15 minutes left."

***


Cairo: "Now turn right. The exit should be near."


Edward: "We did it."


Yeah, it's morning again. Let's just pretend an eclipse just happened.
Joe: "Good job, Edward. Everything should be in place now."
Brandon: "What will Milan do?"


Savannah: "She'll be in charge of checking."
Cairo: "Milan is in."


Cairo: "Milan, everything should be in the right place now.All you have to do is to check that the questions and answers match up. Turn left."


Milan: "Which contestant has tre colours in de hair? Dat is me. Black, brown and yellow."
Cairo: "Okay, now turn right and enter the dead end."


Milan: "It is dark here."
Cairo: "Wrong dead end. Go to the other dead end."
Milan: "You must be clearer, Cairo."


Milan: "De question is about who created a scandal for Fred. The picture is Brandon."


Brandon: "That's not right."
Cairo: "Yes it is. You definitely don't fit into any other questions."
Edward: "I wonder what that is all about."
Cairo: "Milan, move on."


Milan: "Are you Muslim, Cairo?"
Cairo: "Yes. Now go all the way to the end."


Milan: "Savannah does have a black belt in Simfu. I wish she had told me about it first before de mission."
Cairo: "Now turn around and walk to the end."


Cairo: "De question is 'which contestant wears a cap while exercising'. Is it Fred?"
Cairo: "Fred says yes. Turn around again and enter the other path."


Milan: "Paula is a suspect in the death of Esther Masik."
Cairo: "Correct. Now turn back again."


Milan: "How inefficient. I feel like I am on a wild goosechase, no?"


Milan: "Joe has two children."


Joe: "Indeed."
Paula: "Wait, we haven't seen Blackie yet."
Savannah: "You are right. She has time to spare anyway."
Fred: "Where is Edward's picture?"
Savannah: "I think I'm the only one who saw it. It should be near the entrance."


"15 minutes left."
Cairo: "Milan, you need to turn that way now. We forgot about Edward."
Milan: "Sciocchi incompetenti."


Milan: "Dese shoes were not made for running."


Milan: "I am at de entryway."
Savannah: "Give me that. Hello? It's me, Savannah. When you enter, you should turn left into a small alley."


Milan: "Dis way?"
Savannah: "I think so."


Milan: "It is very dark. But yes, I see Edward. His uncle has...schizophrenia?"
Savannah: "Yes. Right? He says yes. Now I'll direct you out of the maze."


Milan: "I must hurry."


Savannah: "Turn left."


Savannah: "You should see the exit nearby."
Milan: "I do."


Milan: "In time."
Savannah: "We did it, guys!"

***


"All of you made it out in time. Savannah took 29 minutes and 57 seconds. Joe took 29 minutes and 2 seconds. Paula took 28 minutes and 49 seconds. Fred took 28 minutes. Brandon took 29 minutes and 33 seconds. Cairo took 27 minutes and 29 seconds. Edward took 18 minutes and 3 seconds. Milan took 24 minutes and 18 seconds. But did you get all the questions correct?"


"Which contestant was a suspect in the death of Esther Masik? Paula."


"Who has two children? Joe."


"Which contestant's hair has three colours? You answered Milan, and it is Milan."


"Who has a black belt in Simfu? Savannah is correct."


"Which contestant exercises with a cap on? Fred."


"Whose uncle has schizophrenia? Edward."


"Who tried to create a scandal for Fred? Brandon."


"Which contestant is Muslim? Yes, it is Cairo. You have managed to earn 160/160 points. Good way to end the season. There is 1210/2000 points in the pot. However, this is not the final one. Don't forget that bingo mission, where you may end up losing points if the Mole ends up not being Cairo, Edward or Brandon. You may also gain 1 point every time you put down the correct Mole in your quizzes. In this mission, you could have 10 points more every time someone input the correct name in the right corner of the maze, but lose 10 if it's wrong. Savannah, Joe, Paula and Fred had input their suspects. Whether they're right or not remains to be seen. Go home and rest and prepare for your final quiz."
