35.14-I want you

Last episode,

Hykel: "He's all alone in this game. He needs a friend."

Ryenn: "I'm fine with being his friend but why me?"

Hykel: "He's clearly into you. A blind rat can see that."

Ryenn: "What?"

***

Monique: "Hmm...I wonder...ah, I remember, I think it is true."

Monique: "I was the first one to be asked a question so I dragged time on purpose since the bomb couldn't go off so early."

"Incorrect."

Monique: "What?"

"The kilogram is the base unit, not the gram."

Hykel: "You took so much time and you got it wrong. I hope subsequent players will be quicker."

***

Douglas: "Er...oh man, I can't think and I definitely cannot think fast on the spot under pressure."

***

Morris: "I want to transfer my points."

"8 points are transferred from Morris to Douglas."

Douglas: "What? No, I don't want it. I don't want to risk it."

***

Sylvia: "I want to transfer my points. It's been a while."

"8 points are transferred from Sylvia to Morris."

***

"Question 34 to Sylvia. What is the national flower of Kyrgyzstan?"

Sylvia: "Kir what? I have never heard of that place."

"Time is up."

Sylvia: "Aah!"

Sylvia: "Why is it not steam?"

Sylvia: "A warning would have been nice."

Ryenn: "Oh my god I was just before her. I am so lucky."

Hykel: "Yikes. That was intense. I'm so glad it's over."

Ryenn: "Sorry to you, Sylvia."

When the bomb went off at 2 minutes and 52 seconds, 50/100 points had been earned, making the pot 390/900 points. Sylvia was the unlucky one in the mission but will she be the unlucky one in this execution, or will it be someone else?

***

Monique: "I'm beginning to have doubts. Sylvia didn't cost us anything in the last mission although she was hit. Did she know about the time elapsed or not? Douglas was transferring his points to me every 10 seconds or so, like he was so afraid and unaware of when the bomb might go off. Hykel did this too but less often. The Mole wouldn't do this when they had the perfect chance and opportunity to excuse their sabotages."

Monique: "Hykel, you were one of the worst in the trivia. Can you explain?"

Hykel: "That was intense and stressful, man. I'm not smart or knowledgeable."

Ryenn: "Douglas, come sit with me and chat."

Douglas: "Okay..."

Ryenn: "You did well this mission. You ended up with 10 points! I'm so proud of you."

Douglas: "It was luck and Morris transferred 8 points to me. So it's not my work."

Ryenn: "So humble. I want you to know that you are always welcome and loved here, okay?"

Douglas: "Okay...did Hykel tell you..."

Ryenn: "Yes, he did."

Douglas: "No wonder you're so nice to me all of a sudden."

Ryenn: "It's not like that..."

***

Morris: "Monique, I have something very important to tell you."

Monique: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Morris: "I had been thinking about this long and hard."

Monique: "Stay back."

Morris: "No. I need you to know how I feel."

Monique: "I think you may be drunk."

Morris: "I'm not. Don't go away."

Monique: "What do you want, Morris? You're scaring me."

Morris: "I want you."

Morris: "I never had the guts to tell you but it's time you know. I like you, Monique. You're smart and capable and charismatic and have a heart of gold..."

Monique: "Stop. Please. Maybe I've been giving you wrong signals because I've always been by your side protecting you, almost like a mother. But it's impossible between us."

Morris: "Why not?"

Monique: "Would you date your mother?"

Morris: "But you're not my mother. You're my confidante, my guardian angel, my soulmate."

Morris: "Just give us a chance."

Monique: "You need to dig your ears. I am not interested in you at all. You are merely my client. If you continue to be so willful I am afraid i have to terminate my contract with you and ask you to move out."

Morris: "Then let's just pretend I said nothing."

Monique: "It's hard to pretend when you've made things so awkward. You should have kept your thoughts to yourself or, better yet, destroyed it, Morris."

Morris: "...I'm sorry."

Morris: "Ugh, my stupid mouth. I shouldn't have declared my love to her. Now it will be so awkward. How are we going to work together in the future?"

Next episode,

Morris: "You're the Mole."

Hykel: "What? No I'm not. How could you accuse me like that?"

Morris: "There's no need to hide. I have perfect evidence to prove it."

***

Hykel: "I'm going to hide first."

Douglas: "I don't want my shadow to be stepped on."

***

Ryenn: "Look at all the scaredy-cats."

***

Hykel: "Now's my only chance."

"Ryenn has been eliminated."

Ryenn: "What the hell, Hykel?"

Hykel: "Sorry."

***

Morris: "Black? I don't know. I'm just guessing."

***

Hykel: "We were told that we had to step on shadows to get an exemption. We were told that we had to put our favourite colours in the lamps to get points. What we were not told is that the globules will change colours after a certain time. This implies that everyone needs to work together to put all the lights in the correct colour first then agree to give up an exemption to one of us. And of course that's never gonna happen."

Morris: "Douglas, don't run."

Douglas: "Okay."

***

Hykel: "Now is my chance."
