47.13-Winter is coming


Previously, the final 6 tested their memory and proved that all of them could remember things as seen by the 300/300 points in the pot. Nobody got the exemption and Venus was executed at the ceremony. With 617/1040 points in the pot, things are looking up for the group but the Mole won't rest easy. Will the group be able to get all the points in the next mission?

Jasmine: "Winter is coming and the air has gotten colder, so we were brought to have tailored warm clothes. But apparently it's more than that from the horrible fashion. We all wore the same colour except for our shoes. It was a fashion nightmare."

***


Contestants will be visiting a historical site: The Etruscan Park. The Etruscan civilisation is a lesser-known civilisation that shaped Roman culture, such as gladiator fights, hydraulic engineering and temple design. The Etruscan Park is a reminder of this enigmatic civilisation and just like how it set the stage for the Roman arts, it will be the stage on which our contestants partake in their next mission.


In the ruins are certain ancient texts, rumoured to be from the Etruscan era. 8 of them, to be exact. Contestants must collect them in 30 minutes. Each text found would add 20 points to the pot.


However, there is an exemption lying around in the area. The mission ends the moment the exemption is found, if the 30 minutes are not over yet.


Each contestant is also wearing coloured shoes and were given a high-tech walkie-talkie that resembles a phone. If they can identify a contestant and the shoe colour, that contestant will be eliminated from the mission but points found would be kept. 


However, if wrong, the one who attempted to eliminate would be eliminated instead.


This mission is worth 160 points and is similar to the one seen in Season 35.


Melvin: "I've been in tombs and encountered mummies but this place still gives me the creeps."


Sandra: "Only 30 minutes. I should collect all the points I can first before finding the exemption."


Jasmine: "I think there's something there."


Jasmine: "I'm right."


Jasmine: "I have the first piece of text."


Melvin: "Oh no! Someone's there!"


Melvin: "I have to hide."


Melvin: "I hope whoever that was didn't see me."


Jasmine: "I could have sworn I heard something...or was it just the wind?"


Sandra: "I'm very exposed here."


Derek: "I can't see anything with the heavy fog and low lighting."


Sandra: "Is there anything here? I feel like I'm just grabbing at air."


Monique: "I should have an advantage here but I don't quite remember what I did last time."


Jasmine: "What a horrible mission. I'm an actress but that doesn't mean I have to go through everything."


Monique: "There is so much fog here but I don't think there's anything."


Derek: "Wait, there's a figure."


Derek: "Who is that?"


Derek: "Damn it. I can't see her shoes."


Monique: "Aha. That's rather conspicuous."


Monique: "It appears that I'm the only one down here."


Jasmine: "What was that? Oh, another text."


Sandra: "Am I just really bad at this? Dad and Logan would totally rock this mission but I'm as blind as a bat."


Sandra: "I can't even spot a single adult Sim."


Sandra: "...Nevermind."


Monique: "This is too easy."


Sandra: "Who is that?"


Sandra: "Crap, she's moving away."


Sandra: "Crap! I'm cornered! There's someone else watching me."


Monique: "I better get away from her before she can do anything. She's definitely a woman from her figure and from her voice..."


Monique: "Sandra is wearing green shoes."


Sandra: "What the..."


"Sandra has been eliminated."
Sandra: "No! I've been discovered already."


Jasmine: "Muahaha!"


Jasmine: "One down, three more to go."


Derek: "Damn it. She's gotten away before I could get closer."


Melvin: "Okay, I need to stop hiding and actually do something for the mission."


Melvin: "Wait, I think I stepped on something."


Melvin: "A text!"


Monique: "There's another one."


Jasmine: "Ugh, I've been spotted."


Jasmine: "It's either me or you. Monique is wearing red shoes."
Monique: "Jasmine is wearing blue shoes."


Monique: "I think they're blue at least. I can't tell from here but if I hesitate I'll be eliminated."


Monique: "...Darn."


"Monique has been eliminated."


Monique: "That was too soon."


Monique: "How did Jasmine even know so quickly? Was she observing me?"


Monique: "I guess I won't be the one with the exemption this time."


Jasmine: "Ha! Good riddance!"


Derek: "I think that last woman there is Jasmine but what the hell is her shoe colour?"

***


Derek: "It was an extremely frustrating experience because that mission was not for me at all. I don't have good night vision and there had to be fog that night. And it's very easy to tell who I am just from my size alone, whereas for the ladies it's harder because they're all around the same shape. I just couldn't see myself winning it...pun not intended. Not bad. I can pun."

Jasmine: "With Sandra and Monique down, the rest will easily fall."


Melvin: "No, nothing here."


Derek: "Oh shit. She's going to turn this way."


Derek: "I have to get out of sight."


Jasmine: "That was Derek, right? Or was it Melvin? They're both so big...nah, Melvin can't run that fast."


Derek: "That was a close one. I'm not eliminated yet."


Melvin: "I see another one."


Melvin: "That's two texts. I wonder how many the rest have already collected."


Jasmine: "There's a hole here. I could've fallen!"


Jasmine: "I have to leap across."


Jasmine: "My stunt instructor would be proud of me."


Derek: "Shit! He's going to see me!"


Derek: "Err...Melvin is wearing grey shoes."


Derek: "I hope that's right."


Derek: "He...didn't notice me?"


Derek: "Why am I not hearing anything?"


"Derek has been eliminated."


Derek: "What? You're kidding. Those weren't grey?"


Jasmine: "Melvin must have eliminated Derek."


Jasmine: "If it's me against Melvin, I will win. Then I can freely look for an exemption."


Melvin: "Only two of us left, right? Jasmine and me."


Jasmine: "That's another text. Are the rest doing anything? Why am I the one with all the texts?"


Melvin: "I have to try and not make any noise."


Jasmine: "Wait...you're telling me they're connected? I didn't have to jump and risk injuring myself!"


Jasmine: "I don't think I've been to this part before."


Melvin: "There are only 8 texts. It's possible that the rest have already found them all."


Melvin: "In that case, what's stopping me from looking for the exemption?"


Melvin: "Wait, I see another text. They haven't all been found yet."


Jasmine: "Nothing in here. Just a pile of dirt."


Melvin: "I can't see a single thing down here."


Melvin: "Ouch! If only I could see where I was going."


Jasmine: "To think there are so many hidden parts to this ruins. The Etruscans must have a lot of secrets."


Melvin: "I hear footsteps! I have to hide."


Melvin: "Phew. She's going the other way."


Melvin: "Jasmine is wearing blue shoes."


"Jasmine has been eliminated."


Jasmine: "What? How?"


Jasmine: "I know you're there, Melvin. I never realised you were such a cunning man."


Melvin: "I'm the only one left."


Melvin: "I need to go find the exemption somewhere. I'm sure it has to be here. This is where I would hide it if I were the crew."


Melvin: "5 minutes left. Maybe I should check outside and also look for any remaining text on the way."

"Time is up."
Melvin: "Oh...I didn't see anything else."


"The exemption was buried in a pile of dirt at the back. Nobody found it. On the bright side, all 8 texts have been recovered, so 160 points have been earned. Good job."


The pot now has 777/1200 points. Is the Mole taking it easy or is this group too strong for the Mole?
