CALATABIANO, SICILY
Hi mole.
Hi Gilles.
How is it?
Very good.
Or wait, play an innocent candidate.
Are you the mole actually?
No, Gilles, I'm not the mole.
No, I'm not the mole.
I'm not the mole.
No, I'm not the mole.
I'm not the mole.
No, I'm not the mole.
No.
I'm not him.
No, I'm not the mole.
I'm not the mole.
And now honestly, are you the mole?
Yes, I am the mole.
I thought so. That lying is already working out well.
Absolutely.
Ready?
Yes.
Andiamo.
Dear friends.
We are almost in Sicily.
You can set foot there soon with a bunch of money already in the group pot.
10,000 euros.
That's wonderful news, isn't it.
Only regret that I'm sitting here all alone.
You all got all got the same question:
Would you like to be the mole?
Everyone who said yes, who wanted to be the mole,
is on this boat.
Whoever said no, who didn't want to be the mole,
is on the other boat.
All those who will be sitting will be sitting here at my table with me,
with a mole book, earns 1,000 euros for the group.
Good luck, friends.
Oh my God. What's your name?
Stéphanie. - Senne.
Senne? Charlotte, but you can say Lolo.
Lolo, okay. Lolo. Bernard.
Lolo, okay. - Lolo. Bernard.
Lolo, okay. Lolo. Bernard.
Certainly all four of us have already said yes.
Anyway. Those who have said no, are on the other boat.
There may also be hanging out on the other side.
Hello. - Hey.
I'm Michael. - Karolien.
I'm Coco. Nice to meet you! - I'm Gillian.
Gillian? Okay, super.
Did you guys say yes? - I wanted to be the mole.
" I also want to be the mole. - So do I.
Dingske There's also someone in that boat.
Hello, everyone.
I'm Lynn. Can you guys hear me?
I can hear you, yes.
alk can hear you, yes.
I can hear you, yes.
I'm in the big sailboat, right at the top of the mast.
I'm in the big sailboat, all the way up the mast.
"Can you wave sometime?
Now I see you. Hello Lynn. My name is Philippe.
Would you like to be the mole?
Nine candidates said yes.
All nine of them are hanging on the big boat.
Four on the port side, four to starboard,
one in the mast.
I see some more people downstairs, on the left.
Is that port side? I don't know.
Lynn is the only one who indicated to not want to be the mole.
She's alone in her boat.
I answered no, Philippe.
My first thought is no.
I would like to be the one who makes sure
that people want to go for the group pot.
I really liked that last year. That's why I signed up.
Because that was the memory I had when I was a kid watching the program.
And I don't like to lie.
The candidates have one hour to obtain a mole book
and come to the table. But for now, they're hanging on.
Introduce yourself in one minute.
I would count by two and then someone introducing themselves.
Maybe knocking or something.
At 58 we're already doing ticks. - We'll count out loud.
To break free, the the candidates with red life jackets
introduce themselves in one minute introduce themselves to each other.
If they get more than 2 seconds wrong they have to start over.
Once all four have passed,
they fall into the water and they are free.
One, two, three. Start.
Hi, I'm Coco, but my real name is Marta.
I have two last names because I'm from Spain, which is Corbillo Colom.
Therefore Marta Coco, but you can say Coco.
Drama, that's my thing.
I didn't know that, but still. Compared to Belgians, yes.
I have to say what I think and do.
Also when I... At work I have to say: I'm going to have a kakske.
- People then say: Coco, you don't have to say that.
I just say it so they know. That it could take longer than two minutes.
I've been living in Belgium for six years. I work in intensive care.
I have a little dog, which is like my daughter. And stop.
57 seconds. Su puta madre.
Away with the disappointment, straight ahead. We only have one hour. Come on, boys.
Coco stopped just too early
and with her minute was not within the two-second margin.
She may make as many new attempts attempts as she wishes.
Start. Hi, I'm Coco.
Again.
Here. Take turns naming a neighboring country of Italy.
The duo with the yellow life jackets are given quiz questions.
Each time they give five correct answers,
Philippe will drop one meter.
Once he is on the deck, he can free himself
and start freeing Lynn.
Switzerland.
Slovenia.
Austria.
France.
Lynn, one more country.
If Lynn gets to San Marino or Vatican City,
Philippe will drop a meter.
On the right. Coming up.
Lynn, one more country.
Croatia?
Dang. - I really am a very bad quizzer....
I am now the leader of a group in which people are watching me.
Anything can go wrong, too.
Or an interview, radio...
So I do get pressure on a regular basis. Then you just have to be calm. Calm.
There's going to be a question, Lynn. This time, good time.
I'm somebody, too. All the things I grasp turn out to work.
Maybe it's just so predestined.
Take turns naming a soccer team from Serie A.
I'm going to say Real Madrid.
Unfortunately for Philippe makes the Spanish Real Madrid
not part of the Italian soccer league.
So for now he stays where he is, high up in the mast.
I'm already embarrassed.
Lynn, I'm coming to free you anyway.
1 42 438 0x Lynn, I'm coming to free you anyway.
142 438 0X Lynn, I'm coming to free you anyway.
Here's a bubble ball hanging with Marta,
Stéphanie with a cooking pot.
And a Harry Potter book.
A woman named Lynn And a Harry Potter book.
The candidates with blue life jackets have a different assignment.
They must place ten objects with the right person.
If they succeed, they fall into the water and they are free.
That course bike is mine. Should I pass it on already?
Pass those on already.
You can hang that one with me. That one is already correct.
NIF Harry Potter is hanging here, too. - Mine, I think. I like to read Harry Potter.
I'm in elementary school, fifth grade.
That's really my passion, not normal.
I had been teaching about oceans and continents.
A little child came to me after class and that said:
Master, that's actually wise, learning.
That was so amazing to hear.
Are we all hanging well? Yes.
They left well. Their own objects are all four hanging correctly.
What should I say?
I joined The Mole because I wanted a great adventure
And do all kinds of things. Stop.
58 seconds.
That's good. - Yes, the first one.
Coco has already passed.
To get free, the the other three also succeed now.
I'm going now. Start.
Hello, my name is Gillian. I'm from East Flanders, at the moment.
But I'm a purebred Gullegem native.
I moved away because my girlfriend lives in Denderbelle.
I call myself the messiah of Gullegem.
I want to proclaim the word of Gullegem proclaim to the people.
Gillian from Gullegem, that sounds right?
Jesus from Jerusalem. Gillian from Gullegem.
In my spare time, I often go to Gullegem. Gullegem is a very lively parish.
I also like to sleep and watch series.
Euh... stop.
I was at 56.
57 seconds.
Allee. - To 59 me.
Gillian has a fan. That's not going to be right either.
There's a woman with Asian roots.
What is hanging with her? - An effervescent ball.
Take that Gillian likes to take a bath.
I like to take a bath and when I go on a city trip with my girlfriend,
we always buy always buy bubble balls for each other.
And then for once quality time.
sea Stop.
59 seconds.
Yes. - It's in.
Two more minutes basically and we're there.
Both on the starboard and port side the candidates are well on their way.
But Philippe is still hanging at the very top of the mast.
Take turns naming a Belgian coastal municipality.
Ostend.
Knokke.
Oostduinkerke.
De Haan.
Wait, I'm thinking.
Allee.
Diksmuide.
Fuck.
Nondandy.
Are we ever going to get out of here, Philippe?
I'm Michaël Moens, arborist.
Hanging in that harness is actually not that super difficult.
I also have the advantage of being a ball kwiit.
I also have the advantage That I lost a ball.
One less ball in the way in such a harness,
That hurts a lot less to hang here.
A few years ago I was diagnosed with testicular cancer.
They take the size when you have surgery and say, That's about that size.
I felt that and said: That real one is getting so big.
I was scared again.
He said, That's normal. He's growing, because he has to take over the function of the other one.
That one has to make more testosterone, so that one grows.
I said, how?
Then why don't you stick directly... You know that's going to grow.
He said, Ah yes, no. I thought: Allee.
So I'm sitting now... It's not like... It's really a difference.
And stop.
1 minute 06. - Six. Shit.
Don't bring up your scrotum. It makes me laugh and I can't focus anymore.
How come you have one ball? - Three, two, one.
Start.
Lynn, we now have added the range.
And by Marta we have the camera.
Would we switch with Marta? Yes.
Try? Do you guys like it? - We can try it.
They are getting another step closer.
The camera belongs to Lynn, the Spanish fan belongs to Coco.
If they now exchange the objects from Karolien and Michael,
they are free.
Take turns naming a country whose name ends in -i.
Italy.
Serbia.
Croatia.
Belgium.
Namibia.
Lynn and Philippe have a first time five correct answers.
It took a while, but Philippe is finally dropping
one meter closer to his liberation.
Olala.
Lynn, we're down. - All right.
At the blue life jackets they are two more pictures away
of the correct solution.
I think Michael might be wrong. - Okay, do it.
They hang the high chair at Michael's.
We'll try. - I think he looks daddy-ish.
But this is not his child's chair.
By now I'm a grandfather, too.
It's the chair of his grandchild.
The ten objects are hanging correctly.
These four candidates manage to be the first to free themselves.
Press the button to discover the location of the mole books.
Candidates who are not yet loose, will be eliminated irrevocably.
If they come too, we'll get extra money. Or don't we?
Sure, 1,000 euros a cup. - If you press, you're sure.
The group earns 1,000 euros for each candidate
who within the time with a mole book at the table.
But where they have to look to look for is still a mystery.
Maybe the mole books are somewhere else and we still have to go get them.
Then we are out of time.
Yes, then what? Indeed.
If they want to find out where the mole books are,
they must press the red button.
But then they also their fellow candidates
and they can no longer make any money.
Lynn, I see there are four candidates with a whorehouse cry
hit the deck. But that's it.
I would dare to press.
Now? - I'm for pressing, too. Sorry.
There can be six people hanging there. That could be 6,000.
We still have to find those booklets, too. - Yes, absolutely.
You don't know what's coming next.
Who knows, maybe it's back into the water And somewhere.....
Sometimes it's better to have one bird in the hand than ten in the air.
Four is also a lot.
I met my boyfriend At a lockdown party!
It sounds super cliché, but it really was the way I felt:
wow, I've never had this with anyone before, that it was such a crazy click.
So I spent the rest of the evening with him.
Until the police dropped in.
I kind of liked it, because I hadn't heard from him after that
and I thought, If we have to go to court, I can see him again.
It certainly cost me 250 as well to get to know him.
But I think it's worth it, 250 for a great relationship.
Wait or press is the message.
We were super fast. I would just wait a little longer.
If we can grab 10,000...
The next question is coming up.
Take turns naming a letter that does not appear in the word.
Low-cost shipping company.
G of Gert.
Low cost... Of course.
Goddamnit.
With Philippe and Lynn things are not running smoothly at all.
But with the red life jackets
Karolien briefly took over from Michael.
That goes a lot better.
1 minute 01.
Tasty.
In May '97, I committed a stupidity.
I am on the second floor of a townhouse and stood on the windowsill.
That ended up That I fell off.
I didn't step for a year.
Then they said: You will always limp.
I had also asked that doctor: Am I ever going to play sports again?
Petanque. Bird pecking.
Manillen.
That was not the answer I was waiting for.
Karolien is the third who passed.
Now Michael remains and then these four will also be free.
Come on, Michael, it's up to you. - Start.
I'm Michaël Moens.
But on the aft deck they are getting impatient,
because they still don't know where their mole books are.
We'll say we're waiting. How long? Are we going to count?
Two minutes, all right? Two minutes.
Yes, I can live with two minutes. - I can live with that.
We have four children together. Two big ones of 30 and 28.
Our Finn is thirteen and we have also a daughter of two,
who will always be two.
I think I'm going to stop.
57 seconds.
We were sitting pretty on it actually - No, not at all. Three, two, one.
You're counting? - Okay.
One minute. We're halfway through.
I can't say Dendermonde, because it's sensitive there that you are from Grembergen.
Or sensitive for Grembergen That you live in Dendermonde.
It's a very strange thing. I'm still not used to it.
And stop.
52 seconds. I'm still counting.
I thought... You were acting like this. I was sitting perfectly. That's 50.
51... - Damn, I thought it was stop.
Three, two, one.
Okay.
The game is done. - But say...
We're out. - Shit.
The red button is pressed.
With that, the six other candidates are immediately eliminated.
They cannot earn more money.
So what are we hanging out here, guys?
Who did that? - Pipos.
True story. - I don't know. There, definitely.
4,000 euros that's not in the pot.
Why are you a grandfather? Why do you have only one ball?
I'll tell you more. - With that ball...
We still have a lot of time. - I thought, o, shit.
We still have a lot of time to tell a lot of things. - The game has begun!
On the back deck get Stéphanie, Senne, Charlotte and Bernard
the location of the mole books to be seen.
Oh my God. Under the boat that is.
Three feet down then? - That's one meter under three meters.
Oy.
The ten mole books are hanging under the boat.
To get a booklet and thus make money,
they will have to dive, to four meters deep.
I dare to dive. - Yes, no problem.
You hesitate? - Yes, I have doubts.
What's the problem? - I don't know if I can go that deep.
What's that?
There are question marks. - Question marks.
What's going to hang there? - An exemption or something.
Yes, indeed.
We don't, huh. - No, no.
We don't, hey. - No; no.
Each candidate may turn up only one mole book.
If they wish, they may also take the three question marks
that are hanging in between.
Although, of course, they don't know what those mean.
I want to prospect first. - Who else wants to be first?
Maybe we can finish it quickly and then go on like this?
What are you all going to take there?
- The booklets.
If you go for that booklet, don't you suddenly pick up that as well.
It's only three. We're just not doing it.
If you guys trust me, I'm just going to look at the question marks.
We're stuck with a mole. - I know, but I say what it is.
se We're losing more time now than we are gaining.
Bernard goes first. He only gets to turn up one mole book.
That immediately becomes his for the rest of the trip.
Wish me luck. - Good luck. Just a booklet.
As for the question marks, he is free to do as he pleases.
Bernard wants clarity and is going to investigate a question mark first.
So, do you see anything yet? - Deeply, you know.
Just get the booklet. - What about you guys later?
We should have just discussed a little better.
That wasn't smart of us at all. - Bernard, do it, because time is running.
I'm going to get a mole book. All right? - Yes.
If he already thinks it's deep.
He gave me stress, that man. - Me too now.
Without any effort Bernard manages to
turn up a mole book.
Bernard, do you have anything yet?
I haven't been able to look.
Would you mind grab the booklet and come?
Come on. Go.
Bernard, do you have it?
Great. - Hop, come on.
It's an effort, though.
Ça va? Ça va?
Two seconds. - Go ahead.
Can I have a towel? - Here.
Now that Bernard is out of the water, Senne takes his chances.
He, too, may turn up only one mole book.
It's deep. It's deep.
Senne leaves the booklets for now.
and goes straight for the question mark.
Did you get it?
Wait.
I just didn't get there. Second. - Fuck.
One second. - It's not going to work.
They all go so deep And then they come back.
When I play with people I like, I also say in advance:
Keep an eye on me, because I'll cheat if I get the chance.
If I cheat and I win, I'm immediately embarrassed when the game is over.
But when the game is on, I just can't help myself.
Good one.
Success.
Charlotte jumps next into the water.
So, found much? - Mole book grabbed.
But I also did fish up a question mark.
What are they? Two... - I would think, two pass questions.
Two exemptions maybe. - How can that be, two exemptions for.
The question marks are not exemptions.
Nor are they pass questions.
But then what are they?
Do you have your booklet? - I don't know if I dare.
I think it's really keideep. - 0, no. Really?
Would you mind if I don't?
Then I don't have a booklet. - Oh my God. That's on.
She stays away for a long time. - Where is she?
Got one? Yes, good 20. -Okay, good going.
Got one? Yes, good. - Okay, good job.
Great.
My God, I thought it was really scary. Yes.
Good job. - Good job.
I'm really proud of myself. - I guess
I thought it was really scary.
Three booklets are already upstairs. Those fetch 1,000 euros each
if the candidates come to the table with them.
They're still waiting for Stéphanie, who will dive last.
Did you try to take something else? - No, I gave my soul for that little book.
Great, 1,000 euros. Good job. - But wait, that was empty...
Did you... - You grabbed one, too, then.
- Possibly.
Actually, I can swim very well, because I have one leg...
When you swim breaststroke, you do like this, but I have one foot that does like this.
What makes me always swim like this and one foot like that
So I can't swim very fast because of that.
You don't see it when I step. I just never learned it right.
Amai, that's very deep.
Ça va?
It's not going to work. - Good focus.
She's not going deep enough.
Stéphanie doesn't manage to dive deep enough.
Until she over a different tack.
Got it?
Yes. - Okay, good job.
Great. - Hop onto the boat.
Is there still time? - No.
We also need to see that we get to the table.
Come on up. - Come on up.
Stéphanie, Charlotte, Senne and Bernard,
all four of them obtained a mole booklet.
Together good for 4,000 euros.
Hello. - Go, go.
Sit down. Sit down.
Here we sit. - With a booklet.
Welcome to the table, dear friends.
A little less numerous than I had hoped, but good.
And fast, too.
There were more than nine minutes left.
That's 4,000 euros in the pot, though.
You guys look happy. May I ask what the loot is?
Four booklets and question marks. - He has something else.
I knew it. - 'I'm just going for the booklet.'
You have two with you. - You can't be serious.
I knew it was going to be was going to be a tough dive.
They would have stayed behind anyway.
In hindsight, yes, but you did dive first.
You couldn't have known. It was said right away, though.
Allee. And then another lie, - And then two.
Then we certainly didn't have one.
Very little confidence.
Are you happy with it, Bernard? - It can be seen for what it is.
What's on it? - 2.
Two times 2.
It sense question marks, so it will become clear later exactly what it is.
What is certain: The Mole will be played with ten candidates.
So six are still missing, the six you eliminated.
That's so brutal.
Shall we bring them in? - Yes.
Aye, aye, skippers.
Buongiorno. - I'm Coco.
Finally.
All right, you guys have pass questions. - Round of names?
No, that's very important now.
We don't know what it is yet. - We don't blame you.
I hung upstairs for twelve hours. - You can't be serious.
No. - My hazelnuts are purple now.
Welcome also to you six. I'm very happy to have you here.
We have four mole books that make money.
Fortunately, I have six other mole books that don't make money,
but which are for you.
Change.
You will earn 4,000 euros on this first day
It could also have been 10,000.
But much more importantly: it has begun, boys, the adventure.
Nice. - I suggest we sail on.
to Sicily and that we do it in style on this boat
with something nice to eat and drink. Right?
Great. - Amazing.
The first day on and in the Mediterranean
immediately yields quite a bit of money: 4,000 euros.
Cheers. - Bon appetit.
After a nice dinner on deck the sailboat sails into the marina.
The candidates have arrived on the island.
They drive to their first sleeping place in Calatabiano,
a village in the shadow of Mount Etna.
They are clearly elated that they are finally in Sicily.
Gullegem is fantastic. There are six youth movements,
which is a lot for a village of ten thousand people.
What do we know about the five others?
Lynn, 38. Michael... -Lynn, 38?
I would have guessed them younger. - You're the mom and the dad.
No, she doesn't want to. - No?
I said: Don't take me as an old tart.
There has to be at least one older bag.
Up here, I think. - Okay.
Is that going to work? Oy, with me, I don't know.
Puta madre. - Should I help you?
Yes? Great.
Thank you.
It's like some cat hotel.
You look under the bed later. If there's one in there, I'll go nuts.
It really was a first top day already.
I'm also very happy with the people I've already met today.
On those heels, young one. - Yes, indeed.
The group was immediately comfortable.
Normally I have to be careful I don't babble too much
and now I almost have to struggle to get the word out.
I do like that.
Top. Are you going to watch?
I'll even get down on my knees. No, there's nothing there.
It smells bère nice in here. - Yes, southern.
I had a feeling that there were some really strong players among them.
So I nervously came here, calmly started the trial
and came out a little more nervous anyway, honestly
The biggest and the smallest and then the two mediums. - You can Tetris.
That's good. Is that good for you, Philippe? - For me, it's all good.
Okay, good. Then it's decided.
I feel comfortable. Everybody is nice. Everybody is pleasant.
The time of my life. And I'm here one day.
Voila. - Great.
We can set up. - I have one more condition.
I want you to dictate the ten names to me. I'm a disaster at names.
So that tomorrow I'll remember all of whom I've talked to.
We will complete it together.
I can't write well, so you maybe better fill in mine.
So you're Bernard?
I think it's already cruel of you to say that. Really.
I turned up two question marks,
so it will have to be seen to what extent that will be a benefit.
If it's a pass question, it's nice and round, with a fingerprint on it.
If it's an exemption, it's a square with a fingerprint on it.
Now it's a hexagonal or octagonal thing,
so it's a big question mark as to what it is.
Do they get extra questions, which allows them to have more correct answers out of twenty?
Is it something like that? I don't know.
Actually, I don't think. That they are pass questions,
but I do think that it's in that order of magnitude.
Somewhere... That's very naughty.
Somehow I hope that it's going to be something really silly.
For all one knows, it's two chocolates. We don't know.
Wait, that question mark.
It's busy. - Come.
Everything out.
I got another role.
The first morning in Sicily.
The candidates go in search for coffee and breakfast
and drive to Piedimonte Etneo,
a small village a little further on the flank of Mount Etna.
What a car.
My ass.
MUSIC: GLORIA - UMBERTO TOZZI
How does that close?
I think it's cold. I thought it would be warm here.
Wait, starting from scratch for a moment.
Two espressos, cappuccino and milk. - Sorry, I'm a milk mule.
Good job, Senne. - I'll order in Italian.
Hi. Buongiorno.
A cup... Vaso.
Leche? - Leche. Milk.
Latte.
Actually, you don't speak Italian. You just speak Spanish
Grazie mille.
That's really nothing, a shot of coffee. - They do it on purpose like that.
Guys, I have to tell you something.
There has been since I started here
something has changed.
So I have...
been given a different role.
I...
left Belgium as...
a dad.
And I arrived in Sicily as....
a grandfather.
Oh my God.
So I have coffee.
He knew there was Gillian participating. - That Guylian I do find seedy.
Take and eat of this, for this is my body.
The messiah of Gullegem.
That's folk dancing. - Delightful.
I can't dance. - How fun is that?
Delightful.
Good afternoon, everybody. Wonderful, isn't it.
An introduction to the real Sicily, the Ballo della Cordella.
A traditional dance that they perform here at the harvest festival.
And that's fortunate, because the harvest season, dear friends, is drawing to a close here.
So you are going to celebrate with a Ballo della Cordella.
Nice.
We don't just need dancers. We also need harvesters.
Four candidates get to pick olives
and the rest get to throw the legs loose. Say it
I would like to dance. - I also want to dance very much.
I really want olives. - I also want olives.
I also want olives. - There's one more olive road to go.
You can dance well, can't you? Ah no, just barely.
You've already opened dancing. You've already taken classes,
so you have to do that. - Vote.
Bernard. - Bernard.
Bernard - The group has decided. Bernard is going along.
Bernard comes to dance.
The olive pickers may join me and the rest may rub the calves. Good luck.
Let's go. - Success.
The six dancers get into the square
an initiation in the Ballo della Cordella,
an ancient Sicilian folk dance.
They better get the hang of it quickly,
because while they're dancing looking around especially well.
No, Philippe. - Philippe, above, below.
Above, below. Above, below.
We should have sent Philippe to the olives.
No arguing, guys.
I've never been to an olive grove.
Neither have I. - Neither have I.
Friends, the dancers are ready to give their best.
But it's you guys who decide how much money can be made today.
It's very simple.
The more olives you pick, the more money.
A thousand euros per kilo.
But only if your olives
end up in the right barrel.
The olive pickers are given three multiple-choice questions
about their dancing fellow candidates.
They answer by putting their olives into the colored barrels.
Each barrel stands for a different answer.
If they wish, the candidates may spread their harvest over the barrels.
But only the olives that are in the right barrel,
make money.
Any idea yet how you guys are going to handle it?
By duo. - Indeed.
I would also work in pairs. -Two people are going to rake directly.
You guys are the rakers and we are the questions and fillers.
The first question is about Michael.
Which animal is Michael afraid of?
It's busy.
For each question, the pickers are given three minutes
to harvest olives and deposit them in the barrel.
Rats. Jellyfish. - Sharks.
Wasps. Snakes. All these animals.
What are the answers?
Bow down.
Sharks. Wasps.
Rats. - No idea.
The question seems difficult, but the dancers can help.
Once the question was asked,
Coco and Michael started the first dance.
It says red there. - I also have blue here, yellow, one time.
Red, twice. - Red, twice.
Red.
Michael and Coco don't know what the question is,
but they can play away wrong answers.
They have to look closely at the Italian dancers,
because some wear a band with a color on it.
I have yellow here, one time. White.
As soon as a color appears twice, it's definitely a wrong answer.
and they can eliminate that ton for the pickers.
I think we have yellow twice. - That's facade.
But they have to be by the pinks,
because not all the tapes have a color on them.
Candle. - Red, twice.
Shall we go already? - Yes, okay.
I stopped there with me, too. I'll go with you for a moment.
I also have a few.
Red is already gone. Red is already over.
It's green. Insects, he once said.
I wouldn't go for green, guys.
There's nothing in there. - I'd go for blue.
I heard him say that yesterday, I think. I really mean it. Jellyfish.
Purple, twice. Go ahead. I trust you.
Someone is already raking again. - We only have three minutes.
That's not it anyway.
Come. Go, go.
You have to sit straighter; cause it's all falling out again.
Michael puts a Riverdance'ke between them.
Green, green. - Green.
In a man green. I also had a woman...
Crap.
Fuck, it's something else. Just cut down.
In one fell swoop Coco plays the two tons away
in which until now all the olives were.
Fuck, has green fallen?
It's white or yellow. - Sharks or rats.
Stop raking. There are plenty of olives, Karolien.
What are we raking in? White?
Damn.
Suit yellow - White has been knocked over. It's yellow.
Time is up.
Too bad about the blue one. Been a little clumsy. Sorry.
Friends.
Only the yellow barrel remains.
So according to the fellow candidate dancers those should be sharks.
Michael is afraid
Of jellyfish, the blue barrel. You've said it before.
Nothing to do about it. That one got knocked over, too.
Guys, don't panic, there will be two more rounds.
Also for Coco and Michael it becomes clear
that they are in the wrong.
The color blue occurred only once among the dancers
and thus was the correct answer.
Sorry. - But it was accidental, wasn't it?
Yes, yes. - There's space between, right?
When you're dancing... -I have big hands or...
You're watching. You're focused on that and doing that.
You're hanging in suspense.
New dance, new chance, new question.
This time about Charlotte.
Where did Charlotte meet her lover?
Success. - Tinder?
No idea. Do you know? No idea. Really no idea.
She's been ghosted by a dude.
At a lockdown party. During a taekwondo class.
At a car accident. At Machu Picchu in Peru.
On an airplane. At the supermarket.
In the supermarket, I think That's white.
Red. - Blue.
White.
Well done. - Philippe is also doing well...
You can see he can do it, if he really wants to.
"C/ Blue. Blue twice.
Blue. Blue twice.
Where did she meet him? Does anyone have an idea?
Lockdownparty, one hundred percent.
All out. Everything out.
It's yellow.
I've seen white. - I'm going to do white.
Oy, oy, oy.
The pickers are convinced
that Charlotte met her lover know at a lockdown party.
They throw their entire harvest into that barrel, the yellow one.
Yellow.
Good job.
Yellow.
Twice.
But Charlotte misjudges on the word hedgehog.
Because yellow is indeed the correct answer to the question
and thus occurs only once among the dancers.
I'm going to knock it over. Philippe. - Have you seen it on a man?
Yes, on a man.
Okay.
Oh no, is it done already? - No.
Crap.
Bravo.
They are lucky, because even before Charlotte or Philippe
can push over the yellow barrel, the time is up.
Thank you
Done?
Did you not manage to throw it in? - No, just barely.
Everything on the yellow answer. - Yes.
Charlotte met her sweetheart at a lockdown party.
But of course.
Well done.
A full bucket.
Really. - I had a little stresske.
Well done. - Ça va.
Amazing. You were so focused.
The last dance. I hope you guys are ready.
Because that one might be be a lot harder.
No.
The sprinkler system has been activated,
containing, after all, we are in Sicily,
not water, but olive oil.
The question is about Bernard.
What is...
a specific interest of Bernard?
We're busy. Come.
Amai, that's really...
Two yellow - Sure?
Yes, definitely.
What do we do?
Designer eyewear.
-No, because he doesn't wear designer glasses.
He doesn't know anything about fashion either.
I would say evolution or universe. He's a bit of a nerd.
Is there rose among them?
I did it in underwater world. but I don't know if that's right at all.
Universe. Universe or evolution.
White. - I have seen white.
White, green and blue I've already seen. - White I have also seen.
Are you pushing those over? - White. Under. Other side. Come on.
I think we just have to spread out. - What do we throw in?
Just spread out.
Designer glasses. Really?
Designer glasses. That seems like something for him.
Did you push the wrong one over? - What? No, white
Did I do blue?
There are only three left.
Universe. Designer glasses? That doesn't make any sense.
Astrology and universe are the same thing after all.
I have green. Green. - Wait.
I hesitate about green. - We are here.
Time is up. - Allee.
No.
Did you push the blue one over? - I think I was too enthusiastic.
By accident, right? - Yes, I just did white.
Oh my God.
There is great uncertainty about the specific field of interest
of your fellow candidate Bernard.
Astrology, designer glasses, the universe.
What do you think? - All equally unlikely.
It could have been one of the other three.
In any case, it's not one of the toppled barrels. That's already good news.
We already have something. - We have money.
They're not designer glasses, either. - Shit.
Universe then. I hope the universe.
That's where most of it is.
Indeed, the universe. - Yes.
I'm really super slippery. Super slippery.
In two of the three questions did the pickers
deposit olives into the correct barrel
That's their harvest and it brings in money, 1,000 euros per kilo.
Hello. - Hey.
The olive pickers.
Cute baskets.
Friends, we are full again.
There was dancing and picking that it was a joy.
These olives make money.
1,000 euros per kilo.
That is the price for manually harvested olives.
It's thin. - It doesn't look like much.
Remains the question: How much does it yield?
Time to weigh in, I think.
2,800 euros.
Amazing.
What are you afraid of?
Spiders. - Spiders?
Jellyfish was the answer. - Yes, jellyfish.
Spiders, I'm working on that. But a jellyfish...
Designer glasses, I even cut into that, too. - Designer glasses?
But then you would have had stylish glasses.
Nice harvest.
Barely two days and the group pot already stands at 6,800 euros.
After a refreshing shower to wash away the last of the olive oil,
the candidates head into the village to grab a bite to eat.
Who was afraid of jellyfish? - You were afraid of jellyfish.
I get that.
When snorkeling in Denmark I really...
flown into such a beast.
I had the stupid reflex to take my glasses off and start scratching.
Those are tentacles. - Those are blades.
Boy, really. - But you're...
But I survived And it's still pretty okay.
The assignment is over and the atmosphere is relaxed.
Though they better keep their eyes wide open.
We also learned that we're at the table with an illegal.
Those lockdown parties. - Like you guys have never done anything.
It's time-barred, guys.
She was fined for it. - It's paid and...
I'm going to go...
Guests,
I just found something.
What?
How did you find that for a moment?
I was looking around and I saw that lamp hanging there.
I saw that sitting in there. - What?
I saw that in there. - What?
Wait, that question mark. - I really, legit just saw it hanging there.
I just grabbed it. Sorry.
I don't think that's cool, because there are three guys who already have something weird.
That's sick a lot indeed.
So many people with benefits, that really sucks for us.
We don't know what it is. - Sure it's an advantage.
Is it money? Is it a pass question? Is it an exemption?
They are rapeable, though.
Who knows, we may have seriously missed some already.
Oh my God, yes.
Go in.
Bernard, I have a proposal for you.
Nice.
I have a feeling that there are a lot of nerves there.
We have a result.
Day three. The candidates are enjoying of a quiet morning
in the beautiful grounds surrounding their villa.
Some keep the muscles supple in the Mediterranean sun.
Others are using the time to complete their mole notebooks.
I still want to know your last names. - Corbillo Colom.
Colom, as in a column, an Excel column?
Actually, it means pigeon. Pigeon, in Majorcan, Colom, yes.
I think your face also looks something like a pigeon.
Was that a compliment? - Yes. Right?
Good. Then let's wash our oiled clothes.
I didn't specifically go out for the program to get a new closet,
but I have lost 35 pounds lost weight.
Amai, so crazy. - I used to, when I ordered a mitraillette,
I often ordered it. - What's that?
A sandwich with meat, sauce and French fries in between.
They also put vegetables in between and I always put in the notes
that I was allergic to vegetables, so they wouldn't put tomatoes on it.
That's scary, huh.
In, arms up.
And out, arms bent forward.
Stretched legs, if possible.
Three, two, one.
How do you write that? - Mine?
Balcaen. B-A-L-C-A-E-N.
What is your last name?
De Mol (The Mole).
Are you serious?
That's not true. Really?
I am The Mole.
Write it down, Coco. - Wait, I'm in shock.
Lolo De Mol.
Excuse me, young gentleman. - Good day.
You're expected in the office.
They're coming to get him now or what?
Go on in.
Bernard.
Hello Gilles. - Sit down.
Thank you.
Bernard, I have a suggestion for you.
A proposal that's hard to refuse.
It's about the question marks.
Do you have them with you? - Yes.
What do you think?
There are a lot of scenarios that go through my head.
This is...
a doubler.
It does exactly what the name says.
If this is deployed for an assignment,
then that assignment is worth twice as much money.
They finally get to hear what the question marks mean exactly.
For now, they have already collected four,
but just like last night it also pays off today
to keep looking around carefully,
because doubloons are worth quite a bit.
For example, if they put one in
on a 5,000 euro order, it immediately becomes worth 10,000 euros.
So this could be a lot of money.
Nice.
It's a nice gift for the group. - But not for the mole.
No one can mourn that.
Disappointed?
I had secretly hoped that it would be a personal benefit.
It looks very good. There must be a catch.
But now to my proposal.
I'm looking for, Bernard, a person in charge of all the doublers.
A candidate who is going to keep track of them all.
The thing is,
if that candidate gets a red screen and is therefore out of the game,
then all the doublers are also out of play.
That would be a shame. - Absolutely.
That's why
the person in charge gets from me for once this.
As I said A proposal hard to refuse.
As I said: A proposal that is hard to refuse.
May I touch those? - From me, yes.
I'd like to sleep with it. It's so soft.
Okay.
They all get the same proposal:
become the person responsible for the doublers.
That means keeping the doublers with them,
but also deciding where and when they will be deployed.
An important and strategic position.
To avoid that the doublers would immediately disappear from play
at tonight's elimination,
the person responsible today also gets an exemption.
Would you see fit to do that?
I'm a very responsible guy. - You will have to earn it.
In a moment, Bernard, here starts a clip of exactly one and a half minutes.
You stop it whenever you want.
The fastest three to stop the movie, win the exemption.
Or you continue watching
and then you might see some interesting things.
The choice is yours.
The fastest three.
You're dwelling on it? - I'm dwelling on it.
Absolutely.
A spaghetti of emotions.
I see where your little eyes go. It's not to the screen.
I had resolved not to take an exemption.
You may, it's a proposal.
Okay, fine.
Are you done? - Yes.
Start.
The video is a compilation of all the candidates
the moment they hear that they have been selected for The Mole.
You may join The Mole. - No. Really?
Fucking nice.
Nine sincere responses and one acted,
because the mole himself, of course, had known about for a long time.
You're not serious. - Are you pulling my leg?
Oh my God.
They watch as long as they want.
Delightful.
The three who stop stop watching,
will soon have a chance at the exemption.
Oh yeah, mate.
Really, really? Oh my God. That is so wise.
Okay. - Lynn, you didn't press.
Clear choice.
You saw the mole acting.
That's nice, I guess.
Oh my God. Really?
Yes.
Fucking nice.
Oh yeah, mate.
You're not pulling my leg?
You can't be serious.
Oh my God. That's so wise.
No. Really?
So, friends, we are together again.
That's a lot cozier, isn't it.
Who will be responsible for the doublers?
Key function.
One that tonight also includes an exemption.
This tablet will tell you in a moment
whether you can hope for it or not.
With the majority, it will say: You have no chance for the exemption.
But the three who stopped the movie the fastest,
are in the running, though.
Those three I would recommend
to keep that well hidden.
Coco.
Three candidates are shown that they have a chance at the exemption.
Stéphanie, Karolien and Bernard, those are the three contenders.
But, of course, only one person get the exemption.
The group must unmask the contenders expose them and vote them out
until only one of the three left in the seat.
Who becomes responsible for the doublers
and gets the exemption.
It's very simple.
It's up to you as soon as possible
two of those three contenders away from our midst.
The faster you get that done, the more money you make.
Right now that's 4,000 euros.
They start with a bet of 4,000 euros.
But every time the group votes down a candidate
who turns out not to be a contender, halves that bet.
So it is important to get as quickly as possible
vote out the contenders.
So they play on until there is only one contender remains.
I wish you a lot of success.
The time of the first round now starts.
I would like to hear from everybody the stopping time.
Indeed, yes. Can't we just go around?
37.
I don't want to tell everybody.
I didn't press. - You saw everything?
89 and a bit.
I wanted to press at 14 and it stopped at 16. - I didn't press hard enough.
Five seconds.
37.
39.
I pressed quickly, a little out of panic
And I have no chance of an exemption.
So that means there are three people who printed right away.
Sure. - It shocked me beyond belief.
I've been asking the question during our journey so far:
Suppose you had to go for money or an exemption, which would you choose?
You immediately said exemption. Right, right.
I do think it's important information.
Does that seem like something to you, that role of person in charge?
Very much so, of course.
A proposal that would be hard to refuse, right?
I think so, too.
Start.
That was very fast. - Yes.
Just to knock off, who's going for exemptions anyway?
We've asked that question many times in the group. You know I'm not that person.
I think that person is on the other side.
So you can confirm right now that you will never go for the exemption?
I've already dropped a couple of times that it was my intention was not to do that.
I have effectively not done it. - My intention...
In the end, there are many people who keep a New Year's resolution short.
The last minute.
Senne, what was I wearing?
That's a good question. I think you were wearing a T-shirt.
Okay, you didn't get there. You didn't see me.
Lolo, what exactly did you see? - I saw Gillian.
And then? - Then I didn't see anything more.
Then you didn't see anything more? - Then I haven't seen anything more....
Ten seconds. - We are discussing it.
Yes, who are we going to...
Charlotte says she didn't see anything after the first image.
Why don't we pick up on that more?
I have... - Time's up.
You're voting off two candidates in this first round.
I'm very curious. Vote wisely.
If they now vote out two contenders,
the game stops and 4,000 euros to the group pot.
But making mistakes costs money.
Because every time they vote out a wrong candidate,
halves the stakes and then we have to to a new round of voting.
We have a result.
Being voted down:
Karolien.
Well done.
Well done, men.
The amount remains at 4,000. One contender left here.
If the second discarded candidate is also a contender,
then you will earn 4,000 euros.
If not, then the stakes halve to 2,000 and we move on.
Has been voted down:
Charlotte.
2,000 euros will be lost.
Thank you, Charlotte.
There are still two contenders for an exemption.
Charlotte was not a contender,
as a result, the stakes are now halved: 2,000 euros.
They get five minutes again,
this time to eliminate one person.
Time goes on.
I have a feeling that there are a lot of nerves there.
Because we're a little quieter, I think.
Okay yes, I have that impression too.
I do suspect Bernard.
Normally you are much more present.
What did you see in the fragment of Gilles?
Selection interviews.
I noticed that you were wearing a similar shirt.
Start.
That didn't take long. - No.
I also saw Senne.
For those who really bit through,
I also heard that bit of very important information heard
that we can link to...
a particular assignment.
If you can decode that.
I fully believe Bernard is not,
because he was the only one who immediately confirmed that I was wearing that shirt.
I forget such things instantaneously. - No one has... You said, A T-shirt.
No one has pointed it out yet. - Stéphanie, when did you stop?
Can you give a target time and say: I definitely saw that...
At how many seconds or who did I see? - How many seconds?
Start.
Very fast. - Yes.
Stop time? - 39.
Did you see me?
No.
That's too long.
The choice has been made.
-You say 39 seconds, which is incorrect.
Which is not correct, I mean... - Thank you.
Ten seconds.
I was on screen at 37 seconds and then I just said. I stop.
Time is up.
Dear friends,
democracy is going to solve it.
2,000 euros, that amount was earned
if they can vote out the second contender can vote out.
If not, there will be another round of voting
and the amount will be halved again.
€ 2.000 Has been voted down
By a majority vote:
Stéphanie.
Well done, 2,000 euros goes to the group pot.
With those... I just knew it, with those 37 seconds.
2,000 euros, guys.
Dear friends, the group pot rises to 8,800 euros.
Strong, guys.
That also means That there is a responsible person designated
for the doublers.
That candidate may now come forward.
I knew it. - I knew it.
Sorry, guys.
Congratulations, Bernard. - Thank you very much.
These doublers are for you.
Until the next elimination, they are your responsibility on all counts.
Guard them well. - I'm going to do that.
And for tonight, I also have this for you.
You're safe.
The rest are not.
We are getting ready for elimination.
I wish you very, very good luck, guys.
Allee, congratulations. - Thank you very much.
Yes, well done. - Good job.
The outcome is known: 2,000 euros for the group pot,
an exemption for Bernard and four doublers.
Four chances to make it extra difficult in the coming weeks.
And maybe that's not an unnecessary luxury,
because the mole himself isn't sitting still either, of course.
Then it's time for the inevitable moment:
the elimination test.
I think it's a little early anyway to say, There is one person before me.
But for me, Karolien is definitely not the mole.
A full bucket.
Really.
In my opinion, it couldn't possibly be Gillian.
The youngest, the most sympathetic, the most jovial person in the group.
But also the biggest blabbermouth.
Guys, I just found something.
What?
I really, legit, just saw it hanging there. And I just grabbed it.
Sorry.
As a mole, it's super interesting to have a doubler.
I now have Karolien as a prime suspect.
But for me, the three who got the screen
that they have a chance at the exemption all three very suspicious.
So that's why I'm not ruling out Bernard or Stéphanie at all.
Does that seem like something to you, that role of person in charge?
A proposal that would be hard to refuse, right?
For me, the mole has pressed quickly today.
I don't think it's a bad thing that the mole has the doublers with him.
I would imagine that during the course of the week he would even lose them somewhere.
I knew it. - I knew it.
Sorry, guys.
One, two, three. Start.
Hi, I'm Coco, but my real name is Marta.
Michael hung next to me and I sometimes found that I wasn't at a minute
and that he was already faster at a minute.
And stop. - 52 seconds.
I'm still counting. - Damn.
I'm a very bad quizzer, but Philippe is even worse than me.
Diksmuide.
Nondedjoeme. - Are we ever going to get out of here, Philippe?
In spreading out I included, first of all: Coco.
For the simple reason that she of the nearly 9,000 euros in the group pot
has not yet contributed a single euro.
Green, green.
Crap.
What I found suspicious, was that Bernard was angry
that he wasn't allowed to participate in the trial with the olive trees.
I want olives, too. - You're good at dancing, aren't you?
No. - Ah no, just barely.
I think the money was there to be made,
so the mole had to be with that group.
Group-wise, I do think that we're doing well.
8,800 euros, I would love to have it right now have it in my bank account right now.
Have it in my bank account.
The mole is going to have made money now.
I think the mole is now first concerned with gaining trust.
and then completely destroy us.
Good evening, everyone.
Three days far and the harvest is rich, dear friends.
8,800 euros.
And four doublers,
in safe custody of Bernard.
Deployable as of tomorrow.
Deal with them thoughtfully, because they can not only make a lot of money.
They're also going to require the mole every time to come out of his or her cubicle.
Bernard, tonight they got you an exemption, too.
You're not going anywhere.
The rest have a slightly higher heart rate.
It was ex aequo tonight.
Fuck.
The time of the elimination test was decisive.
Gillian.
Oh my God.
- Shit.
It's getting a lot quieter around here.
Allee, what the fuck.
Amai. - My God.
Fuck.
It's bad luck, the first one. - Yeah...
Damn it.
That's okay. - I had a great time.
For three days it has been an endless stream of funny moments.
That was a lot of fun. When I wanted to go to sleep a little less so.
But yes, it just never stopped. That was blissful.
I'm 99% sure that I know who it is.
Ah bon.
But I didn't want to be the Matteo Simoni who got out first
and who went completely on one person.
But you're Matteo Simoni who... - Who spreads.
I'm incredibly shocked, because he was so fanatical about that game.
That little book of his is already half full. He'd never have lasted three weeks.
You should have given him a second notebook.
Take and eat of this, for this is my body.
The messiah of Gullegem.
Did you enjoy it a little bit? - Yes, definitely.
I drove that BMW. That was a goal.
What a car.
I played a psychological game.
Senne, what was I wearing? - I think you were wearing a T-shirt.
You didn't get there. You didn't see me.
He was just a ball of energy. - An effervescent ball.
Yes, really.
Amai.
There's some in there. - Yes, I packed along for 21 days.
See you soon. And safe home.
Ciao. - Bye Gillian.
Nothing was boring with him. - No, no.
Really not a single quiet moment.
Dear friends. - Oh my God.
You have just completed the first farewell of this trip.
And it won't be the last.
Because the search for the mole is and always will be a merciless attrition course.
But perhaps your search can become a little easier.
With the box standing behind you.
Is there really a box there? - No.
In this box...
is the name of the mole.
That's a clip from a previous season.
What is that again? - Is that box back?
What box? - Surely that was Pandora's box or something.
That was Greece. - The season of Alina.
That was three years ago. - That will still mean something then.
So that box is three years old now.
*I am no other
*I am Pandora
*open me up and discover the end
*I am not free
*I cannot be
*every battle ends in defeat
Did you turn on Al Capone?
Allee, man.
Quiet for those popsicles.
This is the first assignment where a doubler can be used.
Ah no.
