The Smole: 56.05-Debbie Downerisms

The previous episode was a disastrous night at The Voice when Jesse was caught playing a recording and lip-syncing to his song, Regardless, with only 2 chairs from Jenny and 1 chair from Jesse, the group did not turn enough chairs to get their first bonus points, keeping the pot at 121/300 points. Did the bonus mission confirm suspicions or confuse? Who will be executed next?

Sonya: "I'm disappointed in you."

Jesse: "I just wanted to win it for us. It doesn't matter anyway. There weren't enough chairs turned."

Una: "I told you he would fail."

Sonya: "Your constant Debbie Downerisms must have demotivated Jesse so he resorted to cheating."

Una: "You must hate me now. I insulted your clothes and now this."

Jesse: "Why would I hate you? This has nothing to do with you. I was the one who decided to cheat."

Sonya: "It's my fault."

Jesse: "No--"

Sonya: "Yes. You picked up a few bad things from me on the road and I could never correct them. I should have set a better example."

Jesse: "Don't blame yourself sis. You did what you had to."

Una: "Life on the road must have been difficult for you two. Didn't you turn to any adults for help?"

Sonya: "We couldn't. We didn't have anyone else since our parents...died...and I wasn't going to put my siblings in harm's way because I trusted the wrong Sim."

Una: "I can relate. Life sucks. But you suck more."

Sonya: "Why do you keep dissing my brother?"

Una: "Because...because he sucks, that's why! I don't want to associate myself with an unethical man like him."

Jesse: "You don't have to worry about that. I'm not here to make friends or lasting relations. This is just another pitstop in our journey."

Una: "Oh. Good, because neither am I."

Una: "I don't actually hate Jesse. I just want him to hate me because...I like him. But I've been in too many relationships to know that it won't work out, especially with a nomad like him. It's complicated."

Gordon: "Sick. You got a double bed. Much better than my bed."

Raymond: "I lucked out with Rhea's execution. Do you want to move in?"

Gordon: "Nah bro. I got a chick upstairs all to myself. I just need to play the long con. Maybe she likes parties."

Gordon: "Anyway, I guess we're in a coalition now."

Raymond: "We are?"

Gordon: "Yeah dude. Ever since...erm...ever since we talked about my 4th Porsche!"

Raymond: "Oh. If that's what you want."

Gordon: "Yeah it is. I knew you'd be a sucker, I mean you'd be ok with it. So first order of business: who do you suspect?"

Raymond: "Honestly? I don't have a clue."

Gordon: "Don't give me that crap. You had to put someone's name down."

Raymond: "I said Sarah but I don't know after the second mission. She did help to get those big points. How about you?"

Gordon: "I'm pretty sure it's a man. Call it a hunch."

Raymond: "Do you think I'm the Mole? Because I don't think we should have a coalition built on mistrust."

Gordon: "You? Of course not. You don't have it in you."

Raymond: "Thanks...I guess..."

Raymond: "You know, you're an ok lad. I thought you'd be all gay and sissy. We should go out for drinks sometime."

Raymond: "Thanks I guess?"

Sarah: "This robe isn't cutting it. I'm still a little cold. I wish I had the fireplace in the other room downstairs."

Sarah: "Right. I forgot you don't like small talk."

Sarah: "Am I disturbing your studying?"

Olli: "No. Nothing is getting in. I was never good at school."

Sarah: "Forgive me for being rude but why are you even here on the Smole?"

Olli: "I was invited."

Sarah: "Hmm."

Olli: "Why are you on the Smole?"

Sarah: "To make friends...and, I'm telling you this only because I know you don't talk to anyone, but...also to maybe find love?"

Sarah: "Did you just laugh? You don't usually even smile."

Olli: "Sorry. Why are you finding love here?"

Sarah: "I'm too busy to find love in my daily life. I'm 40, Olli. I want to settle down and have my own kids."

Sarah: "I don't even know how you got a partner if you don't even socialise."

Olli: "We did a project in school together."

Sarah: "Oh, high school sweethearts. I love that."

Olli: "Can you move away? You're getting into my personal space."

Sarah: "Sorry."

Sarah: "Olli and I are worlds apart. I'm trying my best to be a social butterfly here because of my own personal reasons but also because I know how important it is to be able to know everyone else in order to get ahead. Meanwhile Olli's just staying in his own corner every chance he gets. We'll see who gets further."

Mason: "Who keeps leaving the damn door open? It's raining outside!"

Jenny: "Not me but I didn't close it. It lets in a light breeze."

Mason: "Light breeze? It's more than light."

Jenny: "You work at a mirror mall. You should be used to...what even is a mirror mall anyway?"

Mason: "It's a novel concept. It's like a regular mall but the walls are made of glass."

Jenny: "That sounds impractical."

Mason: "As the manager of the mirror mall, I take great pride in ensuring smooth operations."

Jenny: "There's no privacy."

Mason: "My employees don't need privacy. I need to make sure they're not slacking off."

Jenny: "I meant the customers."

Mason: "Well they don't need privacy either. They're here to shop not take a poop."

Jenny: "I don't even want to ask how the bathrooms look like."

Jenny: "Let's talk about something else. Let's talk about the past few missions."

Mason: "I thought you sang really well."

Jenny: "Thank you."

Mason: "Jesse on the other hand...that was such a disgrace. His parents must not have taught him well."

Jenny: "His parents died in an accident. He was brought up by Sonya."

Mason: "Oh. Damn it, why do I keep stepping on social landmines?"

Mason: "Well then I say Sonya didn't teach him well. Hitchhiking instead of sending them to school? Spare the rod and spoil the child."

Jenny: "We don't know how the young ones think. It's their world now."

"Contestants, you have just taken your second quiz. But before we begin the execution ceremony, it would be advisable to choose your seats wisely. Who you sit together with will determine your grouping for the next mission. You have to create a music video and one group can get the season's first exemptions. However, there is a risk that one of your group members will get sent home today before you even get a chance. Choose wisely."

Olli: "Not another music mission."

Sonya: "Jesse and I are definitely going to work together. Jenny, want to join us?"

Jenny: "It would be my pleasure."

Gordon: "Una, shall we work together?"

Sonya: "Excellent. Let's take our seats."

Una: "It wouldn't matter anyway. I don't think we can get the exemption."

Mason: "If I want an exemption I am going to need some young blood...Raymond! Let's work together."

Raymond: "Okay."

Sarah: "It's down to the two of us. I think I'll join Gordon's group if that's okay."

Gordon: "It's not okay. I think I click better with Olli."

Sarah: "Fine, then I'll be with Mason and Raymond."

"You have chosen your groupings. Now it's time to begin the execution ceremony proper. We started the first execution with the women; now let's start with the men."
