The Mole 5.0 *Ongoing Clue Analysis and Challenge Discussions*
Cyann:
More fun with google -- S.666 is a senate bill aimed at giving the FDA more power to regulate tobacco products. One interesting thing about it was that the bill was introduced by Senator DeWine -- possibly a connection to the grapes clue? And the Pisco sours mentioned here and there in different episodes could also point to wine, as Pisco is a brandy made from grapes, which also make wine.
Of course I have no idea what to do with that information. :lol: I've been googling Chilean wine and Pisco looking for anything that might shed light on the LIAr part of the clue, but not finding anything. It's possible, though, that the "grapes" and "s666" clues are meant to point out more than one player who might be linked to wine (who's been shown drinking it?), and the LIAr is meant to narrow that group down to just one, so the two halves of the clue don't necessarily have to be related.
Anyway, maybe a lot to hang on an obscure Senate bill! I'd be a little more confident of my interpretation if the clue had been written as "S.666-LIAr" rather than "s666-LIAr", but what can you do?
tallactor:
So I've been a big fan of the series since the beginning, but just now started scrutinizing the clues...
Let's start at the beginning...the Mole website.
Can anyone make out what the background says on the right hand side...it starts out with wikipedia.org/wik
Could this be something we've missed...or am I just on the wrong track?

If S666 refers to a Senate Bill, what session of Congress (year?) Each session of congress starts numbering bills from 001 again. The next session of Congress begins Jan 3 2009. So S666 could be from almost any session of Congress.

Okay... I've been lurking for the past few days and can't stand not getting in on the discussion!
My take so far on s666 - LIAr:
rail - marks (666 = mark of the beast) (Maybe a visual or something to do with Mark? The only thing remotely close that I noticed were the stripes on Clay's sleeves that could resemble rails and that's prolly a big stretch!)
I also picked up on something that I thought might have been a clue. Craig was wearing a skeleton key around his neck at the spa. The lockers had combinations and I'm sure the hotel doesn't use skeleton keys. When he "discovered" the Dry Cleaners it was right next door to a Locksmith where you can see large images of keys in the background as he's entering the store. It just struck me as kind of odd. He didn't sabotage the Dress Code mission, but maybe because sabotaging the Fruit of the Luge was enough for one episode.
However(!), Clay has always been my first pick for the Mole and he came through with two losses for the players in this last episode. He's been flying waaaayyyy under the radar which makes me really suspicious....
Rabbit:
i really think that key around Craig's neck must be something. Unless he was wearing it in other episodes and we just never saw it. Same goes with Victoria's star tattoo. Anything that isn't there one episode, but there the next could very well be something to focus on.
