My season finale video is now posted! Head there to post comments with spoilers.

If it’s not Ryan, she’s a saboteur for no reason 😭😭 she doing things at every challenge that is shady

[@suspended8671]

It's Sean. Dude has literally never contributed anything meaningful to the pot despite doing challenges that play to his strengths as a former, very experienced cop. He's either been completely passive or actively undermined the group from winning money.

This is one of those TL:DR situations, so I’ll cut to the chase. Deanna is the mole, 🔒 it in. Below is a handful of reasons why it is her. 1) the red theme is referring both to her red hair and her wearing a red dress to the first elimination. 2) Her dossier folder was the one on the desk when producer interviewed the mole at the start of ep 1. 3) She said she would socially troll these people, which is opposite of what she was saying the rest of the episode. 4) The pattern on grass during the intruder challenge makes the letters LV, she’s from Vegas. 5) The Hunt password is a nod to the show D was on on Netflix. 6) In intruder mission said nothing at all when choosing a leader. Needed to lay low. 7) Specifically went to a position of communication during the challenge - far from any action. 8) When Ari told the mole to step up, cam went to D and she laughed. 9) During the quiz, Muna was the only player we saw select who they think the mole was. She chose D. 10) D was the only player to not have their screen reveal at the first elimination. 11) When Tony stated he’d sit and let the pot go to $0, D immediately took herself out because her job was done for her. 12) During the safe challenge, D took control of the flashlight when it was discovered it was a black light. She wasted a lot of time shining inside the helmet and on towels. Neesh was the one who took it away to shine it on numbers. 13) the theme of tigers had come up several times. This was also a nod to the title of her Netflix show. Her reason for being the mole will be that she wanted to see what it was like to be the one being investigated as opposed to being the one solving a mystery.

[@burcuyig3594]

Idk if this is a stretch but to add to me linking the clues to Deanna I also noticed the word HUNT in a few of the challenges. It was the answer to the lock code in the first challenge and there was a person named E. Hunt in the gala challenge. The Netflix show that Deanna was in was called Don’t mess with cats: HUNTing an internet killer

[@tasan215]

Michael is the Mole!

[@emi9054]

I never thought Deanna was suspicious except for the fact that she seems really too nice and likeable-- now I am rethinking how im watching the show because it seems so obvious now!

[@schoolhookeygirl]

I’m hearing people say that but I’m still struggling to see it. However if it turns out to be the case I would be so happy! What an interesting mole.

[@johanmason1637]

What about her voting for Qualyn return?

[@burcuyig3594]

Pretty sure Deanna is born in the year of the Tiger in Chinese astrology

[@MoleTracker]

Interesting!

[@felixortiz289]

Deanna, she lives in Las Vegas. In the heist episode, velagio token and poker cards appears in both rooms.

[@nectarinepie952]

First of all, you've done a great job with these videos!! My top pick is Sean and I think Follow the Money supports it once you take away the Cave money, as he tried his damnedest to sabotage that mission, and it was only Muna's cleverness and being outvoted on choosing the bird statue that let them win.

[@HopeAndrea_HFG]

I think that Ryan is too obvious because her personality and edit is similar to Kesi from S1. I've been eying Michael and Deanna. Either would be a fun mole reveal!

[@user-np4si6uo5r]

I thinks it’s neither, and it’s proven it’s not Deanna, may be Michael, but I feel like people who vote Michael go home. I think it’s Sean for many reasons, do you want them?

In Episode 7 during the negotiation challenge they quickly flash the two license plates of the cars. One is SYW 3034 and the second one is DEE 616. The second license plate could be a hint for Deanna since Dee is a nickname and she was born in Michigan (zip code 616).

[@MoleTracker]

I've noticed the license plates on the various vehicles all season, but hadn't figured out any potential clue. Nice theory!

[@talkingmotanka]

I'm banking on Deanna. She has been wearing that same vibrant red quite often in her confessionals and bit by bit while out in the field. So yes, red is the theme, and she's poking that same colour into her headband, lipstick, nails, glasses, and garments at almost every opportunity. Episode 1 "I'm not here for free. I'm not doing this for nothing." and "I'm 100% a team player." Does this mean she's on par with the show itself? Hmm... What amount she personally/individually has pulled in has been pittance. $5000 a couple of times. That's not much. Teamwise, she's been on teams pulling in more money, but not individually. They've won despite her. Episode 2 "I'm not going to get the exemption, I may as well stand up." This said, only after Tony willingly allows the pot to drain to $0, when it got to $36K, letting all suspicions rest on others. YOUR OBSERVATION of the Tiger. Deanna appears to be about 50. If she was born in 1974, she is born under the Chinese zodiac sign of Tiger. This means in 1995, she would have been 21. The safe combination on her team in Episode 3 was : 9521. Episode 4 Deanna watches Muna's video and agrees wholeheartedly with Muna's words "people wouldn't expect me to be the mole", by saying, "100%". She knows she's not perceived as a mole. Once satisfied, she gets up and says, "Yep. I made the right decision." Right decision, meaning what? That she took $5000 out of the pot? :) Later says, "Man, she was so excited to be the Mole." Was-past tense? Meaning, Deanna knows she isn't. Episode 6 After Q goes home, Michael takes Deanna's hand, when the camera-person does a close up on their arms. Deanna is sporting a tattoo of a dog on the underside of her left forearm. In the heist, there was a list of items, such as dog food and hot dogs. Episode 7 Sticking with the red theme, Deanna's team should have kept the red wire in tact. They cut it and it exploded, but red was indeed their colour that should have remained in tact. Episode 8 Another tattoo on Deanna is what looks like Isis showing the feathers and lotus. There is a Temple of Isis in Egypt, and it just so happens Deanna is one of the participants who is in the makeshift "Temple" for the prisoner challenge.

[@rickmarshall345]

You missed an important but subtle clue pointing to Ryan as the Mole. In the very first episode when she was introducing herself to the other players, she said she was a “stay at home Mom”. She did not say anything about being a “Volleyball coach” which is what her bio says and how she is labeled on confessionals. Now why would she keep that part secret? It’s not like hiding you’re a lawyer or some high-income profession like they do on Survivor. There is nothing even remotely threatening to the other players about being a volleyball coach. Well in the very next scene, the players were told to pick a leader for the paintball challenge and they were also told the leader would be out of the game if the team lost. Now clearly the Mole would not want to be picked as the leader for this because it would mean they could be forced out of the game if their team lost to the intruders. Clearly an athletic coach of any kind would have leadership qualities pretty much by definition and would be a logical choice to lead a paintball challenge, so I think that would explain why she withheld that part of her background. Also, note that Ryan said absolutely nothing during that whole discussion to pick the leader, and she even commented to the camera how she kept quiet because she didn’t want to be chosen. There are some other reasons to suspect Ryan such as that she immediately seconded Neesh when he suggested paying $5000 for the clue in the safe-cracking challenge or that she wanted her team to guess the fish as the artifact in the cave challenge, but I think her keeping her background secret about being a coach right before a challenge where the team would need to pick a coach is pretty definitive.

[@MoleTracker]

Great catch. These are the types of clues I like the most - where the Mole has a little bit too much advanced knowledge and they say or do something that a regular player wouldn't necessarily do naturally. I agree 100% that the Mole would not want to portray themselves as a leader going into that challenge. However, here in the Deanna tunnel, what I noticed was that Deanna blurts out "I'm a follower" once they start nominating people :-)

[@cheapcheep]

In the same boat here! I know Ryan is a very solid choice for the mole, but i'd really really really like to see it turn out to be Deanna. I think Michael is just playing a good game, and sabotaging to draw suspicion. The outcome of the next double elimination will really tell me who's the mole. Very interested to see how this all will play itself out.

[@HopeAndrea_HFG]

I feel similarly!

[@adventuregameshowgeek]

I get what you mean about being in a tunnel and overinterpreting every little thing. I've been in a Hannah tunnel and she casually said 'I hate money, the whole group hates money' or something similar and I was immediately thinking that's something the mole would say! But I think I'm gravitating towards Micheal a little bit now, he's just been a little too sketchy for a little too long. I think there's something off about Sean's gameplay as well. Frankly I have no idea who the mole could be.

[@srosellerjr]

It would be crazy if it’s Deanna but I believe it.

[@user-np4si6uo5r]

It’s proven it’s not her sadly, the editors messed up in previews with captions on

[@teresafernandes7440]

@@user-np4si6uo5rwhat do you mean?

[@ashithatharian7730]

I believe it is Michael. Obviously he has caused the pot to drain the most, but worst he has everyone believe it's incompetency and second guess their answers. Moreover whenever he contributes to missions slightly, there is no explanation or train of thought. He just goes on vibes and feelings and always, always supports the wrong desicions/ conclusions. It's as though he already knows what comes ahead. I refuse to believe he is as incompetent as he lets on. Because all his conversations outside the game seem very normal and in anticipation for the next challenge, and often too accurate on what comes next (he is shown to come down to breakfast earlier than all for the kidnapping challenge. Also his conversation with Saen on the upcoming leadership role and Neesh before the cave mission). One inconsistency would be Tonys elimination after suspecting Michael, but that I believe that might be due to the production team deliberately not letting out who else he suspected or maybe he might even have talked to Hannah before the quiz and that part was not shown on screen. Ryan looks genuinely tensed and nervous in missions from the start and has been consistent. And Dianna too, somehow I can't see her as the mole. But your video has brought light to Hannah, and I was surprised to see she has drained the pot as much as Michael.

[@MoleTracker]

Yeah, I definitely put too much stock in Tony's elimination as a reason that Michael couldn't be the Mole after the first week. And thinking more about the truck challenge, if we assume that Michael is the Mole and that a lot of people were voting for him on the quiz at that point, it could actually be a pretty ingenious way of keeping money out of the pot, knowing that most players are going to lie about their top choice. Thanks for your comment!

[@HazardGoat]

I still have tunnel vision on Muna. Her reactions are so over-the-top that it looks like Mole overcompensation to me. Acting obsessed with money is a way for the Mole to hide. But then Neesh's exit gives me pause, as he suspected her too, though that might be the show just throwing us off the scent.

[@MoleTracker]

Great discussion, everyone! It's definitely harder to figure out this season. Keep those guesses coming!

[@user-np4si6uo5r]

think it’s Sean, and here’s why. 1. Not Deanna, in previews with caption on it says that she gasped and was suprised 2 Not Hannah, she wouldn’t go to the exemption/game over game if she was the mole right? She has added money multiple times. 3 Not Micheal, people who vote Michael go home. It’s either Ryan, Muna, or Sean 4. Sean was a very bad liar in one challenge and a great liar in others. A normal player wouldn’t do that. 5. He has sabotaged a lot, he took the phone a lot, wanted wrong idol, messed up slingshot 6. When he sabotaged the game when Michael was watching how did he choose one of the three correct ones? That’s very low chance 7. He has acting credits in shows and is an undercover cop 8. Slow starting the bungee thingy 9. Sabotaged when counting triangles, took lead there and ignored Muna 10. Acting different from video played at movie, he’s putting on an act 11. Many of his statements are weird and he acts weird on camera 12. It’s not Muna because production wouldn’t cast her right after Kesi 13. Not Muna because she has been helpful in challenges and hasn’t sabotaged too much 14. Ryan is possible but not likely, she’s not the best personality and wouldn’t be chosen as a mole in the first place 15. Sean seems like the person production would pick for the second season imo 16. In one challenge there was gambling and poker stuff and doesn’t Sean live in Vegas? For me it’s 1. Sean 2. Muna (only thing putting her this high is she said “oh no, now they think I’m suspicious” only a mole would think oh no, a player would like that 3. Ryan, she has sabotaged many times but I don’t think on purpose lol 4. Hannah 5. Michael 6. Deanna Although, If it’s not Sean, it has to be Ryan, Muna, or Michael, because they saw Sean’s video, and the mole would go see whoever’s video was the most revealing.

[@franknoneofya9585]

I don't think it's Sean, he's a terrible liar but he also had 3 people look at his video. I don't think it's a guy period, Q voted for Sean or Michael in his 2nd elimination. So did Neesh, Hannah said she changed her vote when Tony was eliminated and he voted for Michael.

Also Deanna lives in Las Vegas. There were casino chips and poker clues in the challenge where they had to find the safe in the apartment with the RED chair in the balcony

[@nectarinepie952]

So does Sean I think

[@johannborchersfriends]

It's likely Sean. The game with the people only had like 3 out of 60 people that were giving the cash donation. Sean intentionally removed one of those cards in front of Michael claiming it was random in the video edits. Think of the mathematical chance of happening to pick the right card of a cash donor out of all the cards there. Then he said he just happened to make a bad choice. Only the mole would know who the right people were and saying I just happened to make a bad choice is a giveaway as only Q knew who the right woman was. Also at the end of this episode when questioned by Michael, Sean sits in the red chair. The other two seats are white. The Red chair is a play out from the tower challenge and red shows up all over. At the end of the people challenge episode Michael answers Sean as the mole.

[@what_im_eatin_uk]

I'm 80% on Muna as The Mole, ever since spotting her name on the lock in one of the early episodes. More than that she seems to go into challenges with a different mindset to the group

[@dilnetthomas]

Its Michael Sean suspects micheal is mole and Sean stays in game. Michael suspects sean is the mole like neesh & Q, still Michael stays in game

[@schoolhookeygirl]

Thank you for breaking down the money contributions. People at still suspecting my girl Muna when’s she one of the most helpful players! All 2 of her sabotages have been very low stakes (the phone and the ticket). And I think blaming her for the key is stupid lol

[@whitnit4148]

Could the Mole be born the year of the Tiger 😅

[@markburns4497]

Early on I thought Hannah but now I'm leaning Ryan. So hard to tell by the game play when everyone is throwing challenges

[@CGR0cks]

When you watch the preview at the end of Episode 8, you see and hear some of the next challenge. I was able to discern Muna screaming at the beginning and Sean and Michael talk as well when the pot breaks. There is a third female voice that is difficult to discern, but knowing that a double elimination is most likely right after Hannah’s game, that person is either Deanna, Hannah, or Ryan. So our final four is most likely the three suspects on the trucks in episode 5, and one other lucky contestant

[@HopeAndrea_HFG]

So Muna, Sean, and Michael are the 3 in the truck???

[@emiliolz9226]

Deanna

[@elitettelbach4247]

I’ve started to notice the tigers, especially in this second batch, but I hadn’t even picked up on all of the red! That being a clue to redhead Michael would be funny. I love the theories for why it’s Deanna, but I’m just not seeing it. For me, Ryan is my top suspect, with Michael as my second pick. Something interesting about the follow the money exercise is the amount of zeros and also considering whether the amount they added was the full amount. Michael has only kept money out or taken money away from the pot. But Ryan is right there with him. Her one positive value was actually the lesser value after the team opened the clue. So even though her team succeeded they didn’t succeed all the way. Also it wouldn’t have made too much a difference to the overall results, but everyone left did also spend 5k from the pot on the movie night challenge. I guess I’m also confused on the math for the gala challenge since they did end up getting 10k correct. And does Muna get a 0 because she was also in the back room with them though she wasn’t shown to have noticed the sabotage or made the wrong calls?

[@MoleTracker]

Yeah, there is a bit of fuzzy math in the follow the money table. For anything that was a wash amongst the remaining players (like movie night), I left it out of the chart, so the total is not the absolute total earned, but rather a relative amount amongst these players. I also had to make some assumptions regarding whether the player actively participated in the sabotage or not. At the gala, it seemed like Ryan definitely cost the team $10K from the pilot and Sean definitely cost the team $10K from the doctor. I also dinged Hannah and Michael for noticing those moves but not saying anything, and I dinged Deanna for both of them because she gave the final answers from the control room, but gave Muna zero because she wasn't involved (as far as we know). It's an inexact science for sure.
