10 things we all thought during Who is the Mole?
Good morning mole fans and mole ladies, I'm going to say it for the first time this season. I have seen the light. The light at the end of the Nathan tunnel. Suddenly, I'm in it up to my armpits. I saw the light. From now on, all bets are on Mr. Rutjes. Just kamikaze full force. Mr. has everything to not come across as a mole: he is an incredible team player, super enthusiastic, rakes in money like crazy (or at least that's the feeling you get) and he comes across as so wonderfully ’ordinary‘ folk. Just like you and me. No, Nathan can't be the mole can he?
It must be the most brilliant move the creators have ever made.
With three candidates left in the game (and one Nathan, TOLD YOU, TUNNEL!) we are slowly digging towards the finale. Am I the only one who feels like she has been to China by now? It's amazing how a show can sweep you away. Shall we discuss what stood out this Monday morning? Nice. Here it comes.
1. Sorry, but can we talk about the difficulty level of the challenges this year? Seriously, man, it's not the intention for those drones and spectacular China shots to eat up the budget from the pot, right, AvroTros? Give those candidates a chance to complete a task too. Thank you! Those poor people…
2. Going crazy over Miljuschka someone who is so happy that she doesn't have to move. Look at her go then. Super grumpy. With that fan. In forty degrees. Clearly overheated. HAHAHA.
3. Oh yeah, suddenly a woman with a pink pantyhose over her head rides by. Lalalalaaaa.
Mil: ‘Do you also want to know the way, ma'am?’ So random, this. PATTY BRARD IS THAT YOU???
4. For a geographically challenged person like me, it wouldn't have made a difference whether you put me on that bike or by the map. That error was going to happen anyway. But really: Nathan was shining like no other. ‘Haaa Robbie! Great job, coachie!!’ Ugh. We all love Nat.
5. LEONIE.
LOOKING.
FOR. A. HAMBURGER.
WITH. A. SIMPLE. FRIES.
BECAUSE: ‘ALL. THE. CHINESE. FOOD. WAS.’
IS. LIFE.
6. Hoooooly fuck, that glass bridge. That was a bridge too far for Miljus, and I understand her. That shit is just scary. Honestly: that whole task was doomed to fail anyway. All those numbers, all those tubes, all those calculations. But it's Nathan who enthusiastically – as we know him – acts like he has cracked the code. While everyone listens in pure panic. And from that point on, everything goes wrong…
7. I want the army green dress with white puff sleeves from Mil to kindly yet urgently request to fly towards my house and be kept safe in my wardrobe. Thank you.
8. As Buddy, who normally would have all the answers right, gets screwed over during the turntable mindfuck. And thus reads his increasingly grumpy answers. ‘Duckstad.’ HAHAHA.
9. Mil to Nathan after winning the turntable game: ‘Did you do that on purpose?’
Huh, what is this weird comment?! Or does Mil realize that Nat is the Mole? Why is she then on Leonie? Error.
10. Everyone: *votes for Leonie as the Mole*
Leonie: goes home
Everyone: OKEFUCKFUCKFUCK-CALM-DOWN-DO-NORMAL-HELP-WHAT-AM-I-DOING-HERE.
*Rob has left the group chat.
P.S..: Nathan, with his cheeky face like a child, chirps: ‘And then you just come to level 9!’ is the cutest ever. Level? Aawh.
P.P.S.: Even Miljuschka, who according to Leonie ‘again’ orders twelve dishes during lunch, comes close.
