Everyone im convinced the Mole is Paul. At first when the shoe started he was the lowest on my radar because everyone was trying so hard to convince that they were the mole(mainly Nicole) If hes executed ill be
Observing all the journal entries, he first clue card, and the biblical references ive been seeing points to Paul.
The pre episode clue find the mom could point to Nicole since she deals with mothers and is an OBGYN however prior to thatepisode Marcie was a stay at home mom. Naturally you would think that she could be the mole based on that clue. Now..whne you watch the first episode you see that shes executed so youd move away form her as the mole naturally, however Paul made a secret coalition with her prior to the execution. So..indeed if you did find the "MOM" you would find the "Mole"
Adressing the biblical references being made,in the first episode they showed a statue of Jesus off the cross executed . As we all know Jesus was betrayed by Judas. And if imcorrect at the last supper Judas sat close to Jesus and if that were the case then Paul would be Judas because he was the closest to the Host. Also its kind of funny how John said "May the mole have mercy on your souls." or something to that effect.
The number 11 everyone has been talking about is a good clue but i think your energy is thrown way too much toward craig and i dont think it would be that obvious. If you guys notice in the first episode, for question number 10"Who is the Mole?" Paul's name is listed as the 11th choice.
The journal entries dont seem like much but if you examine each page they point to Paul more than any other player. The journal entries have a subtle tone of arrogance to it much like Pauls personality.
Now heres a page by page anaysis of how the journal enties sound like Paul.
Page 1- "Do you believe in Little old moles Marcie?" is a play on when Liz said "Do you believe in Little old ladies Marcie?" if you go back to the episode, the only person on the camera sharing the screen with Liz is Paul.
Page 2- Heres where the choices are narrowed down very well and point to Paul. If you notice in the letter adressed to Marcie's departure there is a line that says"Girl, you almost had me convinced you were the mole."
If you say that out loud it the "Girl" followed by the pause sounds like something a black person would say so naturally Nicole and Clay would be top choice but also in New york theres alot of heavy slang in there that is similar to the African American vernacular, so it would be wise to include that as something Paul might say.
Now if you look to the message about how the mole said "ICant believed i jumped off the waterfall !" Now.. everyone went down the waterfall challenge but not everyone physically jumped. The only two people who jumped were Pauland Alex.
Page 3- Im not sure about the yellow card statement but the "Which little piggy went to the Market could point to Paul since he proke the little piggy.
Page 4- Is a comment on the blanket and how they should be bigger. Its kind of strange that Paul worked with Liz to use the blanket and she was executed that episode. And the fact theres theres a comment on the blanket size also leans toward Paul a little bit.
Also the letter adressed to Liz for her departure is very specific and gives away the identity of Paul. The line that says "with all of your foot problems and overheating, i didnt have to lift a finger" because Paul and Kristen were the only ones present when she mentioned her Foot sweeling and overheating, and Ali was bribed to leave, so the only person who could comment on that is Paul.
Page 5- Apparently there was a comment about being blindfolded and going down the luge until ABC changed it to simply going down the luge. Basingmy assumptions on the prior entry that the Mole had to be blindfolded it would have to be Paul because he was blindfolded going down the luge.
Page 6- This is also a big clue to tip you off that its Pau because the letter adressed to Bobby is commenting on how Bobby had to be pushed around in a wheelbarrow by Kristen. The only person to call Bobby out on him not being able to do the challenges well in that manner is Paul.
The grapesained comment is very helpful as well because the Mole comments on how grapes arent his favorite fruit. Now ...if we all rember back Paul had a little lemon as his best friend, so im wondering would a lemon be the Mole's favorite fruit instead?
Page 7- I cant tie the burned note to Paul.
Page 8- The comment on the exemption card implies that the mole thought about taking the exemption and in combination with the picture of the chain and the comment "oh,the ties that bind us" could imply that Paul would have took it had he not said "i swear on my daughter".
Page 9- its funny how out of all of the objects Craig chose for everyone to travel up the hill, the llama was the only one that the mole decided to include in his journal. And Paul and Nicole were supposed to go up the hill in that costume.
The only thing that makes me a bit skeptical about Paul i the baby crying in one episode, which could have been a nod to Nicole for the Mole since shes an OBGYN. Also the factthat Paul really doesnt do anything mole-ish. Having said that if we go back to season one he could be taking the appraoch of Kathyrn(the mole from that season) and let the group dynamic fall on its own while sabotaging smallthings here and there. Theres so much evidence pointing toward Paul id be suprised if he was executed.
