DAY 9
**********


Mervyn: "I'm just really glad I kept my cool even though I was about to burst a vessel. I hate water so much. I just held on for dear life. I guess police academy did help."

Daphne: "Mervyn, have you found anything yet? Regarding our deal?"

Mervyn: "What? Don't tell me you found out about my secret already."

Daphne: "Is it really that big of a secret?"

Mervyn: "Of course it is! Er...er...I haven't found anything yet. Let's leave it at that. Goodbye."


Daphne: "Just what are you hiding?"

Mervyn: "Nothing. Nothing."

Daphne: "I will get to the bottom of this. Just you wait."


Scott: "Vanessa, I remember you talking the other day about your fiance."
Vanessa: "Ah yes. You decided to eavesdrop in the toilet."


Scott: "Details, details. Anyway, I'm curious to know more about him. It's always interesting to hear about the lives of others."

Vanessa: "Oh, well if you insist."

Vanessa: "Shane is a really nice guy. He's skinny as a stick and never works out, but he is also very sensitive to our needs. He's very gentle towards everyone, never shouts at all. He's basically my complement."


Scott: "He sounds gay."
Vanessa: "You're gay."

Scott: "No I'm not!"

Vanessa: "Woah, chill."

Scott: "I used the wrong word. I meant to say 'effeminate'."
Vanessa: "I'm not exactly your Barbie doll girl either so we're perfect for each other."

Scott: "Ever since that standoff, I can't get Andy out of my mind. I don't know why. He's always in my head. In fact, I kept wondering if every shirtless surfer that sailed past in the mission was him...so I consulted Vanessa. And hearing things, I'm probably not gay, thankfully. After all, there are similarities between her fiancee and Andy. They're both sensitive towards others, for example. He's also very nice and sweet to everyone. I only think I like them only because of their feminine qualities."

Vanessa: "Oh, that poor child. Struck with such a rare disease at such a young age."
Andy: "I hope it pulls through in the end."
Daphne: "We should end its suffering."
Vanessa: "What?"

Daphne: "Kill him. Kill the sickness that leeches onto him."

Andy: "Do you know what you're saying? It's a life we're talking about right here!"

Daphne: "That's why we shouldn't prolong his suffering. At least he will be remembered through this footage."

Andy: "I can't believe you. This is a LIFE. You are talking as if he's an inanimate object. Do you treasure life at all?"

Daphne: "I treasure life. That's why I try to capture it in its purest, innocent form. I care too much for life to let it wither away to nothingness."
Vanessa: "Woah there. Let's not fight."

Andy: "What if it's your family? Or your friend? A loved one?"
Daphne: "My parents died when I was 10 but you don't see me making a big deal out of it."

Vanessa: "Wow. You don't look like someone who's orphaned at 10."
Daphne: "Is there supposed to be a look?"

Vanessa: "Sorry. That was pretty rude of me."

Daphne: "So yes, I know what it feels like. But it's the circle of life. People come and go, live and die, die and rebirth. Anything else you may like to add?"

Daphne: "No? I thought so."

DAY 10
**********


Vanessa: "It's such a good day to soak up the sun."
Gigi: "It's a bit hot though. How about a dip in the pool? Or better yet, how about we challenge each other to a contest? First one to the other end of the pool wins."

Vanessa: "Are you sure you want to challenge me?"

Gigi: "Overconfidence isn't a good thing."
Vanessa: "It's nowhere near 'over'. I know myself well enough. But if you're certain. But what's the prize gonna be?"


Gigi: "Oh, how about a secret or alibi?"
Vanessa: "Deal!"
Gigi: "I didn't expect you to be so forthright. But I like it."

Vanessa: "Are you going to talk all day or what?"

Gigi: "We need a judge though...hey, Scott!"

Gigi: "Scott, help us judge who reaches the end of the pool first!"
Scott: "Well, sure, I guess."

Scott: "On your marks, get set, go!"

Scott: "Wow, they're quite fast."

Scott: "And Vanessa wins!"

Vanessa: "In your face, biatch!"

Scott: "How rude!"

Vanessa: "I've got to admit, you're better than I thought."
Gigi: "I wouldn't have challenged if I couldn't swim well."
Vanessa: "But I still won. So give me my deal."

Scott: "Vanessa is so obnoxious. Is she a man in disguise or what? So unladylike. No wonder I don't feel attraction to the women in this house."

Denise: "I've been going through so much more clothes than I expected. From now on, Imma resolve to wearing them for at least a week before changing."
Mika: "Oh, please don't. If I don't get too dirty I don't mind rewearing outfits but not for that long. You'll smell."
Denise: "It's a free country, dudette. I can do whatever I want. And I'm gonna fix myself some bong."


Mika: "No wonder you always reek."


Denise: "Yo dude, got any ice?"
Zachariah: "Ice? Yes, we have some ice cubes in the pantry."


Denise: "No, not the cubes. Ice, ice baby! You know, the kinds you can snort or smoke or inject? Don't play dumb with me, man. I know you know what I'm on about."


Zachariah: "...'Ice'? I'm afraid we don't have...um, 'ice'. This is a drug-free resort."


Denise: "Fine, be all uppity. Then can you show me where's the smoking point?"
Zachariah: "This is a smoke-free resort."
Denise: "Boo. This is a fun-free resort. I wanna check out."
Zachariah: "A moment, please. May I have your name?"
"Denise, you may not check out unless you want to forfeit and prematurely quit."


Denise: "BORING."
Zachariah: "God, please help me. I thought we were past the 60s..."

Andy: "I don't know how much longer I can do this. It's killing me inside."

Andy: "It's...it's already happened once. I lost one friend today. I don't want to lose another."

Andy: "Please, don't do it...gaah!"

Andy: "Oh my goodness...it felt so real."
Gigi: "What's the problem?"

Andy: "Huh? Oh, sorry. Did I wake you up?"
Gigi: "It's not the first time."

Andy: "It's not?"
Gigi: "No. I keep hearing you shout the same few things. Something is clearly troubling you. Can I know what?"

Gigi: "I'm your friend, Andy. You shouldn't shoulder this burden all by yourself. Don't you trust me?"

Andy: "Sigh...I suppose I do owe it to you for causing you countless sleepless nights."

Andy: "I had this friend, his name was Zane. We were a part of a close group of friends. We always hung out together. One day we decided to go to the cliff side...the worst decision we could ever make."

Andy: "Another friend of mine, Jay, recently went through a horrible breakup and just wasn't in the mood. Zane kept poking fun at him and wouldn't stop pushing his buttons. They got mad and had a scuffle. And in a fit of anger, Jay pushed Zane over the cliff."

Gigi: "...What happened after that?"

Andy: "I think you know the answer to that."

Gigi: "This must have been painful to watch."

Andy: "It was...and it's a secret I never told anyone. We decided to keep this a secret. We told the police he was a tad too playful and lost his footing."

Andy: "Gigi, I'm entrusting this secret to you. You're the first one outside my group of friends that I told. Promise you will guard this with your life."

Gigi: "I promise."

"Attention, all Smole contestants. Please gather immediately."

Mika: "Wait, where's Vanessa?"


Scott: "Don't tell me..."
Mervyn: "We should go find her."

Denise: "She's not a kid any more. But fine. I'm totally fine with whatever you guys do."

Everyone: "Vanessa! Vanessa!"

Scott: "Surely there'll be a body right?"


Denise: "Vanessa! Come out already, dude! Stop wearing that invisibility cloak!"
Mervyn: "Hey, you shared a room with her, didn't you? Did you see her?"
Denise: "When we were called I wasn't in my room."

Mervyn: "But it's so late at night. Where were you then?"

Denise: "I was taking a break, dude."

Denise: "I hope you don't think I'm the killer. For all we know she may be snoring in her room."
Mervyn: "She does sleep like a log. When we were in Appaloosa Plains, Gio, Vanessa and I shared a room."

Denise: "Dude, how about we check her room?"



Vanessa: "Zzzz..."


Mervyn: "Phew."
Denise: "I told you. Knocked out cold."

Denise: "I don't mean dead."
Mervyn: "We should go and tell the others she's safe and sound."
Denise: "You go do what you want, man. I'm gonna pass out on this bed."

Mervyn: "We should BOTH go and tell the others she's safe. And probably wake her up too."
Denise: "Fine. I'm not gonna fight with a cop. But I should say first that I'm clean."
Mervyn: "Uh-huh, let's just get moving."

Mika: "Vanessa, you scared us. We thought you were the next victim."

Vanessa: "Sorry to have given you all a scare...but what's going on?"

"Now that everyone is here, it's time to pack your bags, because we're going to our next destination: Bellum City!"

Andy: "Wait, so no execution?"
"Everyone's making it through to the next round. Your total scores will be combined. Exemptions, however, will not carry through."


The Mole was merciful in sunny Isla Paradiso, but the group can't relax yet. Not with only 100/330 points in the pot and a Mole at large.
