Episode 5: Hints of Seasoning
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Madelon: Nicky's execution has left me feeling very double. She made it fairly high on my suspect list, so in that regard it is good for my game that I can strike her out now. But as a person I think she and I got some... specific things in common, so I think I could've had a good friend and potential pact with her. The game didn't roll that way sadly... Which means I have to keep chatting with others to exchange some information about the game. Maybe I could try to talk to Angelica for a bit, she's been acting a bit sketchy here and there. I should win her trust a bit, see how she ticks. Maybe I can place her personality better. Maybe we could try out some new outfits as well too.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hayden: Sup Lawrence!
Lawrence: Yo! What's happenin'. Chilling out?
Hayden: Trying not to think too much about Nicky, ya know?
Madelon: Knock Knock! Angelica? It's Madelon!
Angelica: *through the door* Oh. Uh... Come in!
Madelon: Everything okay, sweetie? You sound super bummed out. I just came to check on you.
Angelica: Yeahhh... I'll be okay, just feeling a little sad. Did you want a drink or go somewhere?
Madelon: No, thank you. We can stay here and talk, if you've got something on your mind!
Angelica: I'm just a little depressed over Nicky's elimination. Being her roomie, I really felt like we'd become great friends... Even if it was only for a few days.
Madelon: I think everyone's been hit pretty hard by her leaving honestly. I really wanted to get to know Nicky a lot more than I did. I'm sad she's not gonna be here for this journey.
Angelica: I feel like there was a lot of missed opportunities...
Madelon: She's not gone forever. Hey! Maybe tomorrow there is a twist and she'll be back!
Angelica: I'd like to see that happen, honestly.
Madelon: It's Mini Mole, you never truly know. Just keep hopeful that the mood is gonna turn around. Positivity works wonders, trust me.
Angelica: I know I should be counting my blessings that I'm here still, and usually I'm the one full of kind words and positive messages, but today I'm just down in the dumps over poor Nicky.
Madelon: Everyone is allowed to go through their emotions. Don't feel bad for feeling bad, 'kay?
Angelica: Thanks Madelon.
Madelon: How about we do something fun today, whilst we have the afternoon off! Maybe that'll boost our moods a little bit, and take our minds off the stress of the game!
Angelica: Did you have anything in mind?!
Madelon: No, but I'm sure there's plenty here to do. Also, there isn't any rule we even have to stay on the property, right?
Angelica: That's true. Nicky and I were going to go and do karaoke one night. I'm a singer, she's a DJ, we really had a lot in common. One night we should do it, in memory of her!
Madelon: That's a great idea! I love some karaoke, honestly!
Angelica: Unfortunately, I had a little cry earlier, and... Well... My throat gets all scratchy when I cry, and I don't want to embarrass myself with bad singing, especially when it's like, your job... You know?
Madelon: I kind of get that!
Angelica: Kind of like, that dish you made with the llama meat and-...
Madelon: Hey! I told you that story in strict confidence!
Angelica: I know, I know! It's just so funny!
Madelon: Not for me! I want to become a chef one day, and I don't need people to...
Angelica: But you get what I mean though, right!
Angelica: I promise I haven't told anyone... Well, except for Everett... I did also mention it to Tina, cause she has a way with words and...
Madelon: Oh no, Tina can talk anything out of anyone...
Angelica: I made them promise not to tell!
Madelon: I'm never going to become a TV chef if everyone knows about my cooking blunders...
Angelica: Same with karaoke for me when my voice isn't just quite ready! I'm glad we're on the same page...
Madelon: How about we do something else then. Something fun like... I dunno, a make over! I'm sure you've got some fabulous outfits to try out.
Angelica: I did bring a few! I was gonna bring them out for special occasions.
Madelon: Well, then this sounds like one of those! Let's glam ourselves up, girl! New look, new attitude! It'll definitely get you in a better mood AND stop you talking about my cooking, mmkay?
Angelica: I like that idea!... And again, I am SO sorry.
...
Madelon: There! You look... Absolutely stunning. You are one of the hottest girls on television, Angel!
Angelica: You... You think so?...
Madelon: Are you kidding?! You're absolutely slaying in that dress!
Madelon: Is everything okay? Do you not like it?
Angelica: ...
Madelon: Angel?
Angelica: No, no! I-I love it. It's just... This dress belonged to... Anyway, it doesn't matter, you look amazing! I love that necklace, where did you get it?!
Madelon: I actually got it as a birthday gift from one of my old friends! I think it would look great on you too, if you'd ever wanna wear it!
Angelica: I'd love that!
Madelon: Deal! But... would you love a hug?
Angelica; I would LOVE a hug...
Madelon: Oh, and Angelica... Whatever's on your mind, just know, that I'm here to listen.
Angelica: Thank you, Madelon. You're truly an amazing friend.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Madelon: I am also glad that I could clear the air with Carlos for a bit. I noted down for myself that he seemed to be kind of careful about his choice of words and what to say when we were talking. If he is the Mole then I don't want him to be against me, I'll get much less insight into him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Glen: Serious talk, we lost Nicky in the last elimination, big deal to some cuz they had her pretty high on their suspect list, not me though, she was hovering above bottom last for me. Moment I saw that girl I just had this gut feeling she wasn't the sort to be the Mole. My sights are set on people a hella' lot closer to me, know what I'm saying?
'Course, I could be bluffing? Haha, not really a poker man me, I mean I play with my buddies every once in a while, Helen always says "I can tell when he's bluffing, that's how I got him to marry me" god that woman, she's my rock, trust me, Hellcat would sniff this mole out in seconds, wouldn't stand a chance.
That's one of the things you forget when you sign up to these kinds of shows, how much time you spend away from your family, picking my girls up from school, walking the dogs... that and I sure do miss watching my favourite TV shows, you just don't get the time between missions and the eliminations, when you aren't Mole hunting you are sleeping! Just thinking how many episodes of Magnum PI I've missed, jeez!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Glen: Whatever that smell is, it's absolutely abysmal. Worse than a rotting corpse, let me tell you.
Hayden: Not gonna ask how you know what that smells like... It's unfortunately the coffee, I think. I think either, dude behind the bar spiked it with something to get us out of here, or it hasn't been changed since this morning's breakfast.
Glen: I think I'll pass on the coffee anyway, my old heart probably can't take too much excitement.
Hayden: Old heart, pfft. You're not even that old, grandpa. What kind of football Coach would you be if you couldn't keep your own with the kids?
Glen: A damn good one... Just a damn slow one too!
Hayden: Yeah, I have a hard time believing you're the inactive type.
Glen: Well, I did once travel to Hawaii for an Ironman competition... Unfortunately, I didn't win, but it was an experience of a lifetime.
Hayden: Damn, Coach. Who knew you were such a powerhouse.
Glen: I try.
Hayden: I used to play basketball as a kid, but ain't nothing like an ironman competition. I once tried eSports, but even then I couldn't beat them South Koreans, ya know?
Glen: Yes... I know exactly what you just said... Hashtag, me too.
Hayden: How about we just move on from that, eh?
Glen: Sounds good... You ever wonder what people are up to back home?
Hayden: I try not to think about it. Besides, I ain't got anyone back home really at the moment.
Glen: You don't have a girl? I thought you had one.
Hayden: Nah, you probably confused, old man. I mean, I HAD a girl... She turned out to be total psychopath.
Glen: Heh... That's women for ya.
Hayden: Nah, dude. I mean like full on psychopath. Got me sent to jail and shit for things I didn't do.
Glen: You did time? How long?
Hayden: It was only a short while once the appeal went through, but it was a really eye-opening experience. Changed everything about my life since then.
Hayden: Really took a step back, and filed for a restraining order on that psycho. I'm lucky I had the support of people around me to understand my perspective, cause if I didn't have anyone on my side, my life would be hell.
Glen: No kidding...
Glen: I want to know the story, but I feel like I don't want to pry. We've been through enough today, with the elimination.
Hayden: Nah, man. It's cool. It's part of my life, so I tend to be quite open about it. It's embarrassing sure, but hey, consider it a testament to how accepted you make me feel as a friend.
Glen: I'm glad to be seen as a friend and not just the old man or the dad of the group.
Hayden: Well, Coach, you're still gonna be the dad of the group, trust...
Glen: Yeah, it's inescapable...
Hayden: What about you? What do you think your family is up to right now?
Glen: I can't be sure. All I know is that I miss my missus. I can't wait to tell her about this experience so far...
Hayden: I'm sure she's rooting for ya!
Glen: All I want to do here is to make her proud.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sharon: So, as it turns out, I'm the earliest bird out of anyone here, even 'Coach' Glen tends to sleep longer. Usually I would use the time to do a solo work out so I can start with a good mood and stretched muscles into the day, but today things have been a bit different. I had some surprise guests out of the 8 in my workout routine who watched me and were eager to work out with me together. Of course I said yes, I think it is such a great way to bond, and it is the perfect opportunity to maybe even form an alliance. I'm on good terms with almost everybody, but game wise, yours truly definitely needs backup. A Win/Win for everybody, especially for me, haha.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tina: Ahhhh! Good morning, world! What is on the agenda today?... What IS on the agenda today. What should I do this morning, whilst I'm up this early?... Guess I'll go see if I find a new friend?
???: Fourty-eight... Fourty-nine... Fifty!
Tina: Huh?... Ready or not, here I come?
???: Fifty-one...
Tina: Or not...
Sharon: Fifty-two!
Lawrence: I don't think I can keep up with your pace, Shaz. Fifty is MORE than enough...
Sharon: Just a few more, okay?
Lawrence: Uh... Fifty-three?
Sharon: The burn is what you want! You did remember to stretch, right?
Lawrence: I did, but I'm more of a... mental exercise, kinda guy.
Sharon: Push yourself, Lawrence! The real mental exercise is your determination, focus and tenacity! This'll really focus your mental and physical energy for the rest of the day!
Lawrence: Or exhaust me... We'll see which is more likely...
Sharon: Enough chit-chat! Let's keep pushing!
Lawrence: Fifty-... Five?
Sharon: Four.
Lawrence: F***.
Tina: Well, well, well! What do we have here? A couplea early birds, looking for worms on the ground, no doubt!
Tina: Morning, y'all!
Sharon: Morning... Ugh... Tina... Fifty-six!
Tina: Doing some pushups, I see!
Lawrence: Run while you can, bro...
Sharon: Oh, it's not THAT bad, Lawry! Calm down and push through the pain!
Tina: Alright, I'll join in... You convinced me!
Lawrence: Big mistake...
Sharon: Fifty-Eight!
...
Tina: One!
Sharon: Fifty-Nine!
Tina: Yep. That's... Definitely........... One.....
Tina: .... Okay... I'm stuck... I need help....
Sharon: SIXTY! See! Doesn't that just make you feel pumped and ready for the day?
Lawrence: Chyeah, dude!... If only I could feel my arms!
Sharon: They'll come back, but the rest of the day will be filled with energy now!
Lawrence: I haven't worked out this hard since I last went to the campus gym!
Lawrence: Worked out a lot more than just my arms, know what I'm sayin'?
Tina: Hey, uh, guys! I know I sound like I'm joking... But I am genuinely stuck on one. Can someone please help me up?
Sharon: Ohmigod, Tina. Here, I'll help you up!
Tina: I'm wildly embarrassed right now.
Lawrence: I'm impressed you can do this routine every morning!
Sharon: I gotta stay in shape to keep up with the boys at work! Crime doesn't take a cheat day... I mean, I do, but like, crime doesn't!
Lawrence: You've got a pretty good pain tolerance.
Sharon: That's called being a woman, Lawrnece.
Lawrence: I mean, the constant pushing in exercise, the desire for justice, the arm sleeve tattoos. I'm impressed! You must be the toughest officer on the force!
Tina: Nah, don't worry guys. I'll help myself up.
Sharon: Oops! Sorry, Tina!
Sharon: I hold my own, yeah! By the way, I love your tattoos!
Lawrence: Right back at you!
Sharon: We should hang out more often. Maybe we can do a workout every morning?
Lawrence: Chyeah! I'd be down for that! Can make it a little pact, ya know?
Lawrence: You in, Teens?
Tina: Pass on the exercise, yes on the pact! I'd be in for that part!
Lawrence: Well, I mean... You'd be waking up every morning to watch us work out?
Tina: Trust me, that's exercise enough for me!
Lawrence: You sure?
Tina: What are you saying?!
Lawrence: That Sharon is right! It gives you a lot of energy for the day! I'm feeling better already!
Tina: I guess! Two push ups, tomorrow!
Tina: Well, if we meet up. Perhaps we can talk about the game a little? Make it a little alliance type thing!
Sharon: Talk about our suspects, what we've seen, who we think its The Mole?
Tina: Exactly! Besides, talking and conversation is more my jam, you know?
Sharon: I'd be in for that. I trust that you both are here in good faith, and not maliciously.
Lawrence: I mean, in a group of three at least ONE other person is safe.
Sharon: That's true, even if one of us IS The Mole, two of us isn't. Safety in numbers.
Lawrence: I trust you both.
Tina: Me too!
Sharon: And me...
Lawrence: Then it's settled. We'll strengthen our physical side with morning exercises, and work on our mental strength by talking out our suspects in the process! It's a win-win, bro.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everett: Ev... You're stupid for letting this get to you, honestly.
*Everett sighs*
Carlos: Holá, Everett... You're sitting alone?
Everett: Sitting... Dying... All of the above, really.
Carlos: I see. This is about Nicky leaving, isn't it?
Everett: Yup... Hardly got to really know her, but she's had such an effect on me already...
Carlos: Well, make room, I'm coming to sit down.
Everett: I never thought you were the type to comfort someone.
Carlos: You people really don't know me at all, do you?
Everett: We're roommates, and I literally know two things about you... One of which is that we're roommates!
Carlos: Well, I happen to know someone who is experiencing some heartache.
Everett: What would you know about heartache?
Carlos: I've lived an extremely varied life. I've had my fair share of heartaches already. I was married a couple times, you know.
Everett: So you've lost people you've loved?
Carlos: In every way you can imagine. Sometimes they die, and you can't do anything to fix them up.
Everett: Harsh...?
Carlos: But then I buy a new car to replace one of those lost loves, and everything works out!
Everett: Are we talking about the same thing here?
Carlos: My cars are my girlfriends. Nay, they're my babies! They're precious to me, and losing one is like losing a part of me.
Everett: Don't take this the wrong way but uh, you're really weird, Carlos.
Carlos: In a way, yes... But I am also talking about real people in my life. Loves have come and gone from me, more than you'll ever know. My last wife... She... Ugh. Nevermind. That's for another time.
Everett: I am so sorry, Carlos. I had no idea you were so troubled over that.
Carlos: This isn't about me, anyway. This is about you, and Nicky... Nicky, who slutted herself around for Mini Mole strategy.
Everett: Uhh...
Carlos: Everett, the trick is... Play them, before they play you! You get what you want, and take control, before they take control of you and rip out your heart, you'll come out on top. It'll save you a lot of trouble in the long run, trust me.
Everett: ... Uh, right...
Carlos: There are sharks, and there are sheep. Don't be a sheep, Everett.
Everett: Well, between Sharks and Sheep, I feel like I know which one I can trust, honestly.
Carlos: Not all sharks are evil, and there are some black sheep out there.
Everett: Hey! With sheep, at least you get that cute soft exterior and you know that they won't be out to get you! Everyone loves a sheep, especially a baby one! Sharks have hard, rough skin and let's face it, when it comes to the animal kingdom, they uh, don't have a lot of friends.
Carlos: Right but...
Everett: And when you don't have friends you don't have information, and when you don't have information, you don't have-...
Carlos: Let me ask you. Do you see me as a shark or a sheep, Everett?
Everett: To be honest, I just see you as a bit of a prick, actually.
Carlos: Thanks...
Taiha: I may have shown up at the wrong time again... Uhh... So like, my kittens, get dressed and head to the cars!
Taiha: It's time to head off to our next challenge!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Taiha: Alright, drivers! Everyone know where we're going?
Sharon: Kind of? No... Isn't that what the GPS is for?
Taiha: If you get lost, just follow me!
Sharon: But I'll be lost at that point?
Madelon: She does know none of us live in this area right? We're relying on the navigation systems!
Hayden: You're riding with Glen, he's probably just gonna end up following her car anyway...
Madelon: Are you gonna follow behind us?
Hayden: Nah, I'm good with directions. I'll get Angel to where we're going.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Taiha: Ladies and gentlemen! We have arrived at our location!
Tina: Oooh! We're here? Where is here though?
Taiha: Why its the next challenge, of course! Silly, Tina!
Tina: I know but I more meant where are we exactly?
Sharon: Ooooh! Is this a restaurant kitchen? This place looks absolutely wicked.
Everett: It looks a little uh, foreboding?
Sharon: It doesn't help that I can't read the name of the place. What kind of advertising is that?
Everett: Well, uh, I've travelled to places with weirder names and writing. For fancy restaurants, it's kinda normal!
Sharon: Ev! Look out behind you, dude...
Everett: Hmm?
Everett: Oh! Whoops... My bad.
???: Yeah, you're kinda in the way of our parking spot!
Everett: I'll step aside, gimme a sec.
Sharon: You know, if it were anyone other than Angelica driving, you'd be toast.
Glen: So, what was it you said?
Madelon: Today is a puzzle challenge...
Glen: And how much money did you bet that you'd be right?
Madelon: Ten simoleons... But I don't concede yet! It could be a food-related puzzle!
Glen: Keep telling yourself that...
Angelica: Do you think we'll have to cook some food today?
Carlos: That, or eat something. Preferably not anything gross or greasy. This body is a temple.
Angelica: Hey, I'd pray to it... I mean, whaaaaaat... Haha! Just kidding!
Taiha: Hello my kittens! Welcome! Today, this Michelin star restaurant, The Toupeira, is going to be the location for your next challenge!
Taiha: First things first, we're going to be splitting you up between two teams of people. We'll do this by a process of discussion, and you can decide amongst yourselves who goes on each time.
Taiha: I am looking for three contestants who "Can Handle The Heat" and six contestants who "Hate Spoiled Broth"... It's up to you who goes in which role!
Taiha: I'll be waiting up here! Let me know, mkay?
Everett: Uh, okay...
Lawrence: Totally. Any takers?
Carlos: I think we should give the three strongest chefs a role in the kitchen. That sounds like they're on par.
Hayden: Could be a twist and has nothing to do with cooking. This IS Mini Mole. It's never super straightfoward.
Everett: Do you know how to cook?
Sharon: Yeaahhhhh... I think I'm pretty crafty in the kitchen.
Everett: You should nominate yourself then!
Sharon: I'll just hang out and see if anyone wants to take the lead.
Angelica: I'm only really good at baking! Although. I think I'd rather, you know, avoid spoiled broth!
Hayden: It's too obvious for the six to be eating spoiled broth! I'm telling you guys, this is a ploy!
Angelica: Well, I'll go with whatever Hayden goes with.
Madelon: If it's what I think it it is-...
Glen: A puzzle challenge?
Madelon: No! A culinary challenge! Then I am the perfect candidate to be a chef! It's my dream to be a TV chef and this is almost a challenge BUILT for me!
Angelica: Sure it is... *coughs* Llama *coughs*
Madelon: Angelica, I swear to Watcher!
Glen: Well, I think Madelon is up for the task of a Cook. I'd like to nominate myself, and I'm sure my wife'll agree that I'm a pretty mean chef.
Madelon: The Coach and I are in!
Lawrence: Chyeah bro! I can do like... Ramen noodles? Ya know, student food.
Tina: Dude, that's more than I can do... Anyone else?
Everett: I don't have a preference. What about you, Carlos?
Carlos: I think I'll go with the six today. Someone else will have to take the chef role.
Everett: Sure... That leaves...
Sharon: Well, I'm the last one left! I'm a pretty good cook. So I guess this worked out well! I'll take the third and final position. That means we've got Madelon, Glen and myself as the cooks and the others are the... other job.
Tiaha: Alright! Roles are set! Glen, Madelon, Sharon, I'd like you all to follow me and get into your uniforms for the day!
Glen: Uniforms, eh?
Taiha: Everyone else, come on in! Welcome to The Toupeira!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Taiha: Glen, Sharon and Madelon, if you can't handle the heat, you'd have better stayed out of the kitchen! Because today you will be our resident Chefs! Well done on bagging your new jobs.
Taiha: As for the other six, you believe that too many cooks spoil the broth, so it is your job today to make sure these three don't fail their cooking duties! You will be today's Runner's!
Taiha: I asked you guys to be split up until three pairs... Tina and Everett!
Tina: The dream team!
Everett: Definitely!
Taiha: Carlos and Lawrence!
Lawrence: Chyeah, dude! We'll kill it as runners, bro!
Taiha: ...And Angelica and Hayden!
Angelica: We'll do well on this challenge, I can feel it!
Hayden: I'm ready to kill it.
Taiha: Today's challenge will be rather simple. It's a cooking challenge that can win a total of $6000!
Taiha: Today's chefs, Glen, Sharon and Madelon will each be cooking up one signature dish that will go before our judges!
Taiha: However, they can only use ingredients that they put on this blackboard list! One ingredient for every letter of the alphabet. A-Z! For each correctly used ingredient that isn't doubled up, you will earn $200!
Taiha: Today's runners will be collecting the ingredients from the list from out in town! Any food that makes it back to the kitchens will be counted toward the list. If an item is doubled up, or incorrectly brought back. Kiss the $200 item goodbye!
Taiha: Each chef will have a personal phone to call their duo of runners! Tell them what you want them to collect, and they will hopefully bring it back in time for you to cook your dish!
Taiha: The three dishes that will be made from the ingredients will be put in front of a judge! If it does not pass, you will be not earn the total amount for the ingredients you used, even if they were correct!
Taiha: As an added bonus, because X is so hard to find food for, we've added in Xtra-Hot Sauce! If you can sneak it into your dish unnoticed by the judges, we'll give you $1000 for that item! That leaves 25 other letters to go!
Taiha: Good luck contestants, it is time to start planning the meals and putting items on the board! Your time starts now!
Madelon: *with a tear in her eye* My dreams are finally coming true!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Madelon: First things first, let's discuss what kind of meals we want to make for the judges. That way we can fill in some basic items for the letters!
Sharon: Good idea!
Glen: Give me a minute, I'll think of something simple and clever...
Sharon: I can make a killer plate of nachos and that way I can sneak in the Hot Sauce thematically!
Madelon: Ooh! Great idea, Sharon!
Madelon: I think I'll handle the vegetables and make a simple salad with some dressing. That way, we've covered more bases with food items!
Glen: I think I'll try and make a Fish Soup. That way I can use whatever fish is left over on the board letters. I think it'll be a good idea when it comes to it.
Madelon: Solid plan! Just don't leave the fish until last otherwise you'll just have... Soup broth!
Glen: I'll be sure to get my team to keep and eye out for a fish market!
Madelon: Sounds like a fantastic plan. Let's start some simple ingredients and send off the runners immediately!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sharon: Dream Team! It's time for us to fetch some ingredients! I need some basic things for nachos. Get me some uhh...
Everett: Corn chips?
Sharon: Yes! Definitely... Uh...
Tina: Here, we have a phone! Let's run off to find the nearest grocer and we'll give Sharon a call once we have a full list of items!
Everett: Good idea! That way we're not wasting time by not moving!
Sharon: That's a good idea. Just keep an eye out for the basics of nachos. I'll update you with a good list once you're there.
Tina: Dream Team is leaving the building!! Yahooooo!
Everett: You're a tonne of fun, Teens! I'm so glad we're a duo! Haha!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Glen: Alright, Hayden and Angelica, I need you guys to run as quickly as you can to the closest fresh food market. I'll update you a list of ingredients once you're there.
Hayden: Anything in particular you want?
Glen: I'm gonna write up a list quickly and once you're at the market, we'll be able to go through it together.
Glen: Call me when you get there, or I'll call you once I've done the list. I've gotta put a pot on boil, so don't take too long! We're making fish soup!
Hayden: Fish soup, got it. I'll look out for the basics and we'll try and find some fish for you, Coach.
Angelica: We're close to a river, right? We'll be able to find a fish market in no time!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Madelon: Boys, we're making a simple salad today, which means I need the freshest of ingredients!
Carlos: Are you thinking of sending us to a produce market?
Madelon: Yes! Great thinking, Carlos.
Carlos: I'm not just a pretty face, let me tell you.
Madelon: Pick up some leafy greens, tomatoes... Maybe some onion. I'll let you know a better list once you're there. It'll be the easiest collection, trust me!
Lawrence: Trust is a hard thing to do in this game, dawg...
Carlos: You're not wrong there.
Lawrence: So let me get this straight. Fresh food market, groceries for a salad, as fresh as fresh can be. Right?
Madelon: Right!
Carlos: Glen is already boiling a pot. Make sure you're not gonna overlap any items on the list.
Madelon: Of course, silly. I wouldn't do that! Trust me with the ingredients, and I'll trust you both with running! We'll be a perfect team. I believe in you guys!
Lawrence: Daww, you trust AND believe in us? That's sweet as.
Madelon: 100%! I believe this is going to be the best dish we've ever created! I'm so happy! GO TEAM!
Carlos: You do know this is Mini Mole, not Masterchef, right?
Madelon: LET ME LIVE MY DREAM, CARLOS! GOSH!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Angelica: Uh, Hayden?
Hayden: Yo.
Angelica: Do you have any idea how long it will be until we get to the fish market?
Hayden: Do I have any idea? I've been following you this whole time.
Angelica: Oh! I was just going with whichever direction you were going.
Hayden: So you were following me?
Angelica: ... And you were following me right back?
Hayden: Well then... Where are we?
Angelica: Ugh! I have absolutely no idea!
Hayden: I thought you said you were good with directions.
Angelica: I'm not from here and we don't have a map. I have no idea where we are or where we're going to... I need a break.
Hayden: I'll call Glen and see what he says about where to go. Maybe there is a map or something in the restaurant.
Angelica: Good idea. Feels like we've been walking around in circles for literal hours!
Hayden: Gimme two secs...
Hayden: It's ringing...
...
Hayden: Hello?
Hayden: Either dude hung up on me, or he didn't answer the phone.
Angelica: Huh? Really? He can't be busy, surely! We haven't brought him anything yet!
Hayden: Nah, he could be talking with the girls about what to put on the menu board.
Angelica: Okay, well, since we're nowhere near the fish market, perhaps we can see what we can scavenge around here!
Hayden: Like berries and stuff?
Angelica: No, silly! We can check out the houses nearby and maybe get some neighbourly folk to give us a few items!
Hayden: Don't take this the wrong way, but I don't think we're gonna find any ingredients for a fish stew or whatever around here...
Angelica: You have no idea the generosity of strangers, nor the power of my perseverance!
Angelica: We'll go door to door and ask for any ingredients they might have. We could start with the basics like Salt and Pepper... Maybe some sugar?
Hayden: What if it causes bad double ups...
Angelica: We'll wait for a call before bringing anything back!
Hayden: Sounds like an actual smart plan. That way we get some ingredients AND we're still on the wait list for Coach's menu!
Angelica: Exactly!
Angelica: I'll do the knocking...
Hayden: Yeah, good. I'll just... Look pretty?
Angelica: I think you do that everywhere, handsome!
*Angelica knocks on the door*
...
*Angelica knocks again*
Hayden: No one is home? It is the middle of the week, right?
Angelica: That's a bust then. We'll try the neighbour's house.
Hayden: I sure hope we get something out of this embarrassment.
Angelica: It's the Mini Mole experience. Own it!
Angelica: I believe we'll come across something.
Hayden: Should we even ask for fish, or?
Angelica: We'll ask for things like flour, eggs, salt and pepper and things. The stuff you can borrow from a neighbour without it being super weird.
*Angelica knocks on the door*
...
Hayden: Maybe, knock harder?
Angelica: Why don't you give it a try!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Glen: Water is boiling... ... ... ... Christ, this is boring so far...
Sharon: All good over there, coach?
Glen: Yup! Just... Waiting...
Sharon: I'm sure something will come up shortly!
Glen: I'm gonna give Angelica and Hayden a call and see if they've made it to the fish market.
...
Madelon: This is a weird puzzle I didn't ask for... Someone give me total creative freedom in this kitchen, please!
Sharon: What was the comment about llama again?
Madelon: Shhhh! NOTHING!!!
Glen: Hello, it's Glen... Oh...
...
Glen: Huh. Strange.
Sharon: What's up?
Glen: No one answered the call.
Sharon: Maybe they're busy?
Glen: Or maybe they're moling...
Madelon: Equally likely.
Glen: How am I supposed to tell them what ingredients I need for my Fish Soup if I can't get in contact with them?
Madelon: Sure does sound like mole behaviour to me!
Sharon: I might try and call my team.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lawrence: Bruh! We've made it... F'ing ace, dude!
Carlos: I barely understand anything you say to me, Lawrence.
Lawrence: You understood "We've made it", no?
Carlos: Yes. We are here.
Carlos: So, what are we looking for again?
Lawrence: Madelon wants leafy greens and then general items for a salad.
Carlos: Alright, split up and we'll search around for any items worth asking about. Once we've got a collection, we'll call Madelon and see what she wants us to bring back!
Lawrence: Smart idea, bro.
Lawrence: The most important stuff is the leafy vegetables... Oh! And some salad dressing. Can't have any salad without dressing, ya know?
Carlos: Right! Good luck.
Carlos: Aha... Hey, now... What's a beautiful thing like you doing in a place like this?
???: I'm sorry?
Carlos: Oh. Miss, I was talking to the vegetable!
???: You talk to vegetables?
Carlos: Only the beautiful ones, but my point certainly does stand with you, of course.
???: Oh, why-why thank you... But uh, I was going to be buying this and it seems like it's the last one. I hope that's alright.
Carlos: Of course it is. I may be unlucky and missing out on this lovely produce, but I think this encounter certainly makes ME the lucky guy!
???: *blushes* Oh, stop it!... What's your name, h-handsome?
Carlos: I'm Carlos Escalante, and you must be...
???: Sondra Myers.
Carlos: A beautiful name for a beautiful lady!
Sondra: Oh, stop it! You're too much!
Carlos: Could I take you out to dinner sometime?
Sondra: I-I would l-love that... Should we exchange n-numbers?
Carlos: Of course! Do you have a pen handy?
Sondra: Oh my! No! I actually forgot my entire shopping list in the car with my pen!!! Let me go and grab it real quick!!! Don't you move!
Carlos: Okay! Don't take too long, my dear, I'll be waiting...
Carlos: F*** me, I've gotta run... Lawrence?! Have you found anything yet?! We gotta go! NOW!!!
Lawrence: What did you say, bro?!
Carlos: HURRY!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lawrence: I'm seeing a lot of seafood and pre-cooked meals but like, barely any fresh produce. What gives? Asparagus? That doesn't seem right...
Lawrence: Did we mistakenly come to a seafood market, or is this all this town is known for?
Lawrence: Why is everything out of stock too? What is going on here, bruh? I don't get it!
...
Lawrence: Sup, Madelon? It's Lawrence!
...
Lawrence: Yeah! I've got some problems, brah. There's like nothing at this market store for the salad. I've searched but can only find like seafood stuff and milk?
...
Lawrence: Uh, huh.
Lawrence: Grab a fis-...
Carlos: So, I've managed to find some stuff for the salad... Oh, excuse me. You're on the phone.
Lawrence: Wait, hold up, bro. Carlos is here.
Carlos: Was that to me, or to Madelon?
Lawrence: Give me two seconds.
Carlos: Okay, no worries...
Lawrence: So, what's up, what did you find?
...
Carlos: Was that to me, or to Madelon? You really have to clarify here.
Lawrence: Madelon, I'll call you back in a couple minutes, alright?
Lawrence: It was to you. Sorry, bro.
Carlos: Alright, I've found a few things that I've put in a basket over there.
Lawrence: Whatcha got?
Carlos: Lettuce, tomato, zucchini, rocket, onion! Plus, there are more stuff over there we can search through!
Lawrence: Ayyyy... Nice one, bro!
Lawrence: What else can we take with us?
Carlos: Well, there are some stuff like Kale and Quinoa. They're really weird letters of the alphabet and I think that Madelon would appreciate them.
Lawrence: What's not to love, bro?!
Lawrence: Hey, so... Do Yams belong in a salad?
Carlos: No idea...
Lawrence: We can ask and see what Madelon thinks anyway. I'm sure Y isn't an easy letter either.
Carlos: I think we've nailed it in the first location!
Lawrence: Chyeah, bro! Dream team over here!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hayden: How many more houses should we try before we give up?
Angelica: I'm sure we've just been unlucky. I'm sure we'll find a generous Good Samaritan, somewhere nearby. Try a few more!
*Hayden knocks on the door*
Hayden: Hello? Anyone home?
...
Hayden: Another no...
Angelica: Alright, then, maybe we'll try one more.
Hayden: I think we should call it quits and head back. We've not heard anything from Glen or anyone for that matter!
Angelica: Optimism, Hayden! We'll get this.
Hayden: I don't think we will! I think we're wasting time here!
Angelica: Then maybe we should give him another call and see if he'll pick up this time!
Hayden: Honestly, Angelica, if you're trying to mole here to throw the cooks off, at least let me in on the act?
Angelica: I was gonna ask you the same thing, Mister "I'm good with directions"...
Hayden: Fair...
Angelica: I'm gonna call Glen...
Hayden: Good luck!
Angelica: Hello?
Hayden: Is he there?
Angelica: Shhhh sh sh!
Hayden: Sorry!
Angelica: Hello?...
...
Angelica: Nope, nothing.
Hayden: Crap.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Creator Note: These are not the items seen, I just didn't have the ingredients mentioned XD)
Lawrence: Alright, we've got the go ahead from Madelon to bring all these items back.
Carlos: Brilliant.
Lawrence: We've pretty much got everything she can use for the salad now. Which means we can perhaps help the other duos if they need.
Carlos: Do you trust the other duos to do well? Maybe we can mitigate some mole damage if we pair up with another team.
Lawrence: I like your thinking, bro! Yo, we should hang out more.
Carlos: Sure, sure...
Cashier: Is that everything today? Are you paying with cash or card?
Carlos: Uhh... Good question. Taiha kinda forgot to mention how we're supposed to pay for the ingredients.
Lawrence: Oh, dude, same. Should we give her a call?
Carlos: Yeah, neither of us have money on us. Can we go make a quick phone call?
Cashier: Would you like me to put them aside for you?
Carlos: Please.
Lawrence: Nah, bro! I'm just joshin' ya! She gave me a card we're allowed to use to buy ingredients, bro!
Carlos: Ugh, okay... We're paying with card, sorry.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tina: There's something up ahead.
Everett: I sure hope so, this suburb almost feels void from a grocery store.
Tina: We're getting closer to the city centre, so there's bound to be something around here!
Tina: Voilà!
Everett: Tina, this is a gas station...
Tina: Exactly! Don't you go on road trips? There's always little foods and chips and stuff at these kinda places!
Everett: We need ingredients for nachos, not crisps and drinks?!
Everett: I think we should move on and find something else. There's bound to be a huge market or store somewhere up ahead, right?
Tina: C'mon silly! This'll only take a second!
Everett: I highly doubt there will be anything in here, but alright!
Tina: Oh ye of little faith! Have I ever done you wrong, Ev?
Everett: Uhh, well... No, not exactly.
Tina: Then this is no exception!
Everett: Okay, okay. I trust you!
Tina: Aha! What did I say?! I toolddddd you so!
Everett: Holy crap! There's so much here! What kind of service station is this?!
Tina: The miracle we needed! Quick, you search over there and I'll check for some of the items we need.
Everett: Tomatoes, Onions, Jalapenos, Corn Chips, the lot!
Everett: Although, did she want cheese for it? Wait no, that starts with Corn Chips and that's essential to the dish. I'll just search from some Corn Chips first!
Tina: Yes yes yes! There is a lot here we can use! Fresh produce... Oooh! "From The Farm" too! I love it! Who doesn't want some fresh produce?
Tina; Everett! I've got some tomatoes!
Everett: Brilliant! I don't see any corn chips around here. We'll have to check out somewhere else.
Tina: No worries! We've made a start and that's all that matters!
Cashier: Uh? Excuse me?
Tina: Hello?
Cashier: What's all this yelling about? I thought this was a robbery!
Tina: Oh! No no no! We're just some loud talkers. Sorry!
Cashier: Okay, well could you please leave?
Tina: Excuse me?
Cashier: Didn't you read the sign? I'm on my break and I'm entitled to a break.
Everett: Pfft. Entitled alright.
Cashier: What was that?
Tina: We're just trying to buy some tomatoes, is that okay?
Cashier: No, it's clearly not okay, lady. I'm supposed to be on my break and I'm missing out on calling my girlfriend.
Tina: Dude, can't that wait until after you sell us this tomato?
Cashier: I'm not selling you that tomato!
Tina: Are you actually kidding me right now?!
Cashier: Please leave, or I'll call the cops.
Tina: Sell us this tomato or like, I'll call your manager!
Cashier: Ugh, fine! Anything but talking to Mr Clintwood again. I need this job or my mum is gonna kick me out again!
Everett: God! What an absolute prick! What is it with all the guys around me?
Tina: Hey! We got a tomato, even if I did look like a bit of a Karen.
Everett: We've still got a lot to find though, we best get moving.
Tina: Are you okay, Ev?
Everett: Uh, well, I'm just a little peeved, I guess. After Carlos' weird and offensive kind of conversation this morning, Nicky going home after some weird situation with Lawrence, I just... I'm starting to lose respect in people, ya know?
Tina: Aww. If you need someone to talk with, you know I'm all ears, babe!
Everett: Thanks, Tina. I think we should focus on the challenge. I'll uh, keep my head up and try and forget that guy's stupidity.
Everett: I mean look at him! He's just standing there exuding hatred and stuff, like... Ugh. Whatever, anyway! We're off to find some much needed corn chips!
Tina: Exactly! Let's press on!
Tina: But seriously, if you ever need to talk something out, I'd love to be there to listen. I'm like 90% ears at this point. It's what I do! I listen and I talk.
Everett: I really do appreciate it. Thanks, Teens.
Everett: Hey look! Just across the street is another store!
Tina: Omigosh! It looks like a grocery store! This is perfect! The dream team is back on track, baby!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hayden: Is this a last one? We're wasting time here, Angelica. We should be trying to find a store, not going door to door like failed salesmen.
Angelica: Alright, I promise this is a last one and we'll ask for directions to the nearest store!
Hayden: I ain't asking people for shit, after this.
Angelica: Fine! Then I'LL ask for directions.
Hayden: Why do we sound like an old married couple?
Angelica: We've been through a lot, that's why.
*Angelica knocks on the door*
Angelica: Hello?
???: Yes?
Angelica: Hi there. My name is Angelica and this is Hayden.
???: Are you selling something? I'm not interested if you are.
Angelica: Uh, no... Actually. The opposite.
???: You're buying something?
Hayden: Let's just go, Angelica.
Angelica: Well, we're just wondering if you had some basic foods to spare. You see, we're out of flour and eggs and sugar and we're wondering if you were the neighbourly type that could help us out.
???: Oh?
Angelica: We've never met before but uh...
Angelica: Hayden and I just moved in across the street, and we've not moved in our pantry supplies yet! Isn't that right, Hayden?
Hayden: Y-yeah... Sure... We're your new neighbours! Expect to see us quite a bit, I guess.
???: Ohhhhhhh. You've bought the old fixer-upper across the way? I was wondering when some poor souls would cave and buy that dump.
Hayden: Y-yeah... We... We definitely caved. We just couldn't go without it!
???: My name is Rashad. I'll have to come bring a housewarming gift later, once the wife is home.
Rashad: What did you need? I've got quite a full pantry anyway. The missus is trying to bake some of her god-awful crunch squares and let me tell you, I'd rather just get rid of the ingredients before she can start!
Rashad: What did you need?
Angelica: Some flour? And egg or two... Maybe salt and pepper. Sugar, butter, milk... Should I write a list?
Hayden: And you wouldn't happen to have any fish, would you?
Rashad: No can do, my friend.
...
Hayden: I can't believe that worked!
Angelica: I told you it was a good alternative!
Hayden: Yes, but while we've gotten all these simple supplies, we're missing everything Coach needs for the fish stew.
Angelica: Well at least he can make some sort of baked good?
Hayden: I guess, but I just wish he'd answer his damn phone!
Angelica: Or call us, so we know what's up!
Hayden: Bloody Mole. Honestly, I bet he'll pretend like he doesn't know how to use a phone cause he's so "old" or somethin'...
Angelica: Let me call him again. If he doesn't answer, we'll ask Rashad for directions, and make our way back to the restaurant.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everett: Well that was excellent shopping. We've gotten everything that Sharon wanted.
Tina: Let's just take inventory for a second and make sure we've got everything we need.
Everett: We've got: Avocado, Onion, Corn Chips, Salsa, Tomato, Jalapenos... And now Nacho Cheese... Clever thinking!
Tina: All the stuff to make some spicy nachos with some guacamole! Heh... Guaca-Mole!
Carlos: Are you sure this was the way we came? I don't remember seeing a river, compadre.
Lawrence: Chyeah, bro. This is definitely going around to the restaurant...
Carlos: If you say so, but I'm not convinced.
Tina: Time to head on back!
Everett: We're lucky the cashier knew the restaurant. Are you sure she said go right from here?
Tina: Yup! Apparently goes in a giant circle and the river is actually a lake! Isn't that neat?
Everett: Either way, we better get back there fast so that Sharon can start prepping and cooking her meal!
Tina: Sure thing!
...
Carlos: We better hurry before the heat gets to the groceries.
Lawrence: Chyeah, bro! I'm always up for a jog.
Carlos: Oh! It's you two.
Tina: Hello, ladies! How's the grocery shopping going?
Lawrence: Fancy seeing you guys here! We're absolutely killin' it.
Everett: That's good to hear. Got everything you need yet?
Tina: Who are you working under? Madelon? What's she cooking today?
Carlos: She's aimed simple and is going for a salad, you?
Tina: Nachos from Sharon. We've got all we need!
Carlos: Excellent. Are you guys heading back?
Everett: Just about to head back now. Restaurant is in that direction.
Lawrence: Shit... Sorry, bro. I think we've been going in circles then.
Carlos: Are you sure?
Everett: We asked the locals for directions. They seem pretty certain.
Carlos: F***. Alright, well, we're coming with you.
Everett: Do you have all your items yet?
Lawrence: Chyeah, dude! Done and dusted!
Lawrence: Got all them greens, ya know?
Carlos: All fresh and secure with a few obscurities for Madelon to play with. It'll be a great salad.
Everett: Did you remember Salad Dressing? It's the best part of the salad, honestly.
Carlos: The uh... We... We...
Carlos: ...
Tina: Ahahahahahahahhaahahah! You forgot the Salad Dressing, didn't you?!
Everett: You guys better go grab it before it's too late! This building here is a grocery store, so you're uh, you're in luck!
Carlos: Crap! Thanks.
Tina: Did you want us to take your stuff back with us? We're heading there now and we've got pretty solid directions.
Carlos: I think we'll be fine. It's just one more item. We're strong guys. We can handle anything.
Tina: I guess, but I don't wanna hold up the cooks. Besides, we kind of know where we're going.
Lawrence: You sure, bro? We're pretty lost.
Carlos: I think we can handle it.
Everett: It is pretty busy inside. Let us take it with us and we'll get Madelon cooking too.
Carlos: Fine. If either of you lose ANY of our stuff, I am going to personally maim you.
*They hand over their items to Everett and Tina*
Carlos: C'mon. We gotta move!
Lawrence: Dude, chill...
...
Everett: Sheesh...
Everett: See what I mean? Why can't people just be carefree and experience life, ya know? Why all the hostility and anger?
Tina: Beats me!
Everett: Carlos always has a way to-...
Tina: Sh sh sh! I'm getting a phone call from Sharon! I gotta answer this!
Everett: Sure thing. Tell her we're on our way back!
Tina: Yellooo! It's Tina!
...
Tina: Yeah, we're on our way back! We've got everything you could possibly need for nachos!
Tina: We've got: Avocado, Tomato, Onion, Corn Chips, Nacho Cheese, Salsa, Jalapenos!
...
Tina: Yup! Write it down. Did you need me to repeat it or did you wanna just wait until we're back?
...
Everett: Psst. Tell her about Lawrence and Carlos!
Tina: Oh, Everett wants me to tell you that we've also got everything that Lawrence and Carlos were getting for Madelon's salad.
Everett: Good good.
Tina: What was that?
...
Tina: Oh! I didn't think of that. I think they actually DID give us a tomato?
Everett: Yup. Dang it. I have it right here. We'll have to get rid of it.
Tina: Alright! We'll head back as soon as we return the tomato to the store! See you soon!
Tina: Ugh. There's always something!
Everett: Better to make sure that we don't lose money.
Tina: Isn't it better to at least get them SOME ingredients?
Everett: Anything at the restaurant counts. So we'll have to deal with this now or we've cost them $200.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Glen: *sighs*
Madelon: Bored over there, Coach?
Glen: There is only just so many times I can try calling them and only so many times I can boil the same pot of water...
Sharon: I hear you. By the sounds of it, Tina and Everett should be here soon with some ingredients!
Glen: But where the hell are my team?!
Sharon: So, Madelon, you said you like cooking, right?
Madelon: LIke it? Love it! I've always had an interest in making healthy food for people, so today I'm really hoping to make a real difference with the salad I'm designing...
Sharon: Designing? *giggles* What do you mean designing?
Madelon: Well, you've gotta think outside the box a little bit. I'm hoping to wow the judges with my ideas. I really think this is my moment. The one I've always had in my heart, you know?
Sharon: Oh, I feel that! That's what being on Mini Mole is to me!
Sharon: Has it always been a dream to cook?
Madelon: Ever since I was a little girl. I always had the mindset of following your heart and pursuing your passions, and for me I want to one day share my passion of food and a healthy lifestyle with the world.
Madelon: I don't know exactly how I'm gonna do it, but I know in my heart I'm gonna get there!
Sharon: That's powerful. I love that, honestly.
Madelon: Follow your dreams, and you never know where you'll end up!
Sharon: Believe me, I'm an advocate for following your dreams. I might be a little bit strong headed in my approach, but I beleive in working hard.
Madelon: Me too.
Sharon: I've always felt the need for justice and I'm pursuing that for my future.
Glen: Both of you girls make me immensely proud. I like to see young people succeed in their goals.
Sharon: Did you ever succeed in your goals, Glen?
Glen: I never had a soul who believed in me. My ma and pa were always more interested in my brother's aspirations than in mine.
Sharon: What did you want to do? Professional sport?
Glen: Heh. Not even close.
Glen: I'll tell you all about it someday, kid.
Tina: We're here! We've finally freakin' made it!
Everett: What a long ass walk that was!... I'm never gonna conquer Everest, let me tell you.
Tina: We come bearing gifts for you all!
Tina: There's plenty of ingredients here!
Everett: Uh, well, most of them are for Sharon and Madelon, but I'm sure you can find what you need amongst these!
Sharon: This is fantastic! Finally we can start cooking!
Everett: We've brought what you told us to get, so hopefully we've not had any overlaps.
Glen: Yeah, I can't seem to see anything that we... Oh, what about the cheese and corn chips?
Everett: It's specifically Nacho Cheese. We thought it through.
Glen: Clever.
Sharon: Hang on? You've doubled up on Lettuce, guys!
Everett: What?! Shoot! We even double checked when we had the tomato debacle...
Madelon: It's not just the lettuce, there's double onions there too. What gives?!
Tina: Well, we did take all the items that Lawrence and Carlos gave to us.
Tina: I guess we just didn't check thoroughly enough. I feel so dumb.
Everett: Sorry guys. We definitely trusted that they'd given us different stuff.
Tina: We spent a good five minutes searching through our stuff too! Ugh. I'm majorly bummed out.
Madelon: It's alright. We'll make up for it with how much ground we're covering now. We should still get a lot of money out of this!
Tina: Wait?! Is that a Lime?!
Everett: We never put lime on our list?
Tina: I don't even remember seeing it in amongst Lawrence and Carlos' stuff...
Glen: We could care less about that, I'm sure. We're already lost the L spot with the double lettuce.
Glen: God knows we could use whatever ingredients we get. Have you guys seen my team at all?!
Tina: Not at all. Have you tried calling them?
Glen: What do you think?!
Sharon: Woah, Coach. Chill. They're just asking...
Glen: Sorry, guys. I'm pretty angry at those two.
Glen: I'll just update the board and see what we have left...
Sharon: We'll get started on cooking.
Everett: Is there anything we can get that you're missing?
Sharon: I'll let you know, but for now just sit pretty.
Madelon: This is absolutely invigorating! We're actually getting to cook... On international TV!!! Aren't you guys just LOVING this?!
Glen: No.
Madelon: Awww, I'm sorry, Glen. We'll figure it out.
Sharon: I'm pretty happy we get to do this, actually. Mini Mole is an adventure and I'm ready to go through all of it. Including trying to cook up a storm, here.
Madelon: That's the spirit!
Sharon: It might not be Michelin star worthy, but I'm giving it my best.
Glen: Can you guys go out and maybe find Hayden and Angelica?
Everett: Yeah, we can go do a little search, but I have absolutely no idea where they'll be at this point. This city is pretty big.
Glen: Fair 'nough. Are you able to call them from your phone?
Everett: I'll give it a try!
...
Angelica: Finally... Ugh, now we can grill Coach about why he hasn't been answering our calls!
Hayden: I can hardly imagine he's busy. We've not given him anything yet.
Angelica: Perhaps he'll be relieved to see us.
Hayden: Yeah, he won't be for long, let me tell you.
Hayden: I'm about to give him a piece of my mind.
Angelica: We're a team. It'll be fine. Just let it be and we'll give him what we've got.
Hayden: Yeah, but seriously... Leaving us out in the middle of nowhere with no directions and no list of ingredients to find? There's Mole-ing and then there's just not letting us participate.
Angelica: Guess who is finally hereeeeeee!
Hayden: We're back... Finally... Without directions... or a bloody phone call...
Everett: I found them! Crisis solved itself!
Tina: Well, well, well... If it isn't Mr and Mrs Wheredyago?
Hayden: We've been literally everywhere and I need a break, honestly.
Tina: No notes! No messages! What did I say, be back home before 10pm! You father and I are very disappointed in you... Haha.
Hayden: Yeah, not funny, Tina.
Tina: Awww, come on. I'm just happy to see ya!
Glen: Where the bloody hell have you both been?!
Angelica: Excuse me?! Don't come at us with that attitude, you're the one who didn't call US or answer YOUR phone! We'd tried so many times! The phone might as well have run out of battery with how much WE used it.
Glen: 'Course it's bloody on! You think I don't know how to use a phone or a walkie talkie?!
Angelica: Calm down, Glen. I'm sure there is a perfectly good explanation.
Angelica: Besides, while we were out waiting for a phone call with instructions, we were being proactive and managed to snag up some basic ingredients from a friendly man in the neighbour we were in.
Madelon: What did you find?
Angelica: Eggs, Butter, Milk, Sugar, Flour, Salt and Pepper!
Madelon: Brilliant! We can use some of this stuff, I'm sure.
Sharon: Yeah, but doesn't some of those cause double ups?
Madelon: Only the Sugar and Salt, I think?
Sharon: Dang.
Glen: So, what's your excuse? I've been here boiling the same bloody pot of water for nearly an hour!
Hayden: Boiling a pot of water? I've been slaving away in the hot sun, knocking door to door asking strangers for fish! Don't tell me your sob story, bro!
Glen: Well, maybe if someone answered their phone, we'd have been able to direct you to the location you said you were going to!
Hayden: This town ain't even got a fish market, dude!
Glen: It's got about thirty grocery stores, son. How hard is it to find just ONE!
Hayden: Absurdly hard when you're not even from this place!
Glen: I bet just about every corner has a corner store in this god-damned city, and every one of them has at least one damn can o' fish in it!
Hayden: Go out and find one yourself then, you ungrateful prick! Maybe call me when you've f***ing found one or do you have no idea how to do that, grandpa?
Glen: Call me Granpa one more time and you'll end up with your teeth punched in, kid. Trust me.
Hayden: Real tough talk from a Kid's Soccer Coach! Bet you're making your wife and kids real proud of you now, bro!
Glen: Don't you dare bring my f***ing wife and kids into this!
Tina: Woah, guys, calm down!
Everett: It's just a game, you two! Settle down.
Hayden: Yeah, that one was my bad. Shouldn'ta said that. Lost my cool there...
Tina: You both need to walk away, alright?
Glen: Damn right, you shouldn't have said that...
Sharon: Glen, stop it! Both of you, enough!
Glen: He started it.
Sharon: I don't care who started it. You're both acting like children over a miscommunication.
Hayden: Whatever, bro... *mumbling to self* He shoulda just answered the damn phone...
Angelica: We honestly tried to call so many times, you know?
Tina: I don't think now is the time to talk about this, Angel.
Madelon: It's alright, we can salvage this situation. We've got some ingredients here and we still have some gaps on the board. If we work together we can find a way to-...
...
Madelon: Guys, please! Listen to me. I have an idea...
Everett: Ooh! Me too! We can uh, we can make some pancakes out of the basic ingredients. We just need some Vanilla and some Maple Syrup, maybe?
Angelica: You could top it with Icing Sugar?
Tina: Oooh! How about some Gummy Bears?! I saw some at the gas station and we can totally spruce up some pancakes into a nice little surprise!
Everett: Good thinking, guys!
Tina: Come on. We'll go fetch the rest of the stuff, and be back by the time the pancakes are ready!
Everett: We know the way to the store, it's not too far from here!
Glen: Ugh... Can you believe the balls on that guy?! Who does he think he is? I'm twice his size and could take him in a heartbeat.
Madelon: Just take a break, if you need. We'll organise the menu to make some pancakes.
Sharon: They're not too hard, right? I think I know how to make them.
Madelon: Super simple. The toppings will really help liven them up, though.
Glen: Maybe I can't handle the heat...
Madelon: Nonsense. You're okay! Just take a breather and then start mixing the eggs, flour, butter and milk. Okay?
Glen: Right.
Glen: Thanks, ladies.
Madelon: No problem, Coach. Sometimes the Coach needs someone to walk them through.
Sharon: We believe in you. You can do this.
Sharon: ... And I can do THIS. Masterchef, here I come! Haha!
Glen: So I just gotta make a batter, right?
Madelon: Yup! Don't worry if it's lumpy, it's meant to be lumpy. It'll all work out when you fry them up on the stove.
Glen: Right. I think I've seen my wife make some in the past. I think I'll be all good.
Glen: Just give me a few attempts at trying to get them right and I'll be golden to add the vanilla and bears and whatever stuff the Runner's bring me, eh?
Sharon: Good luck!... Alright, just a hint of seasoning and... Voilá! I'm pretty sure I can call this nacho mix done! Anyone wanna taste before I put it on?
Glen: Don't forget to add that mysterious lime to your guacamole when you make it. If it's showing up to ruin the game, it might as well save the meal.
Sharon: Smart thinking. I completely forgot that was there cause it wasn't on my ingredients list.
Glen: Are you adding the Xtra Hot Sauce to your meal?
Sharon: You betcha! It'll blend right in with the theme!
Glen: Now how do I turn this thing on?
Madelon: It's a little tricky. Want me to come over and help?
Glen: Sure thing, Chef.
Madelon: Chef! I love that...
Madelon: This knife is working extremely well. The tools they have in this kitchen are to die for, honestly.
Sharon: Are they really good?
Madelon: There are professional chefs in here every day! They must have all the fancy equipment, and here we are getting to use it all! Isn't that fantastic?
Glen: Seapking of professional... Is this supposed to be stuck to the pan like this?
Sharon: My guess would be... No.
Glen: I'll start a new one.
Sharon: Keep your head up, Coach! You got this!
Glen: Thanks...
Sharon: At least we've filled out the board... Judging by what the other's are bringing, we're only missing... U and W? Which is pretty good! That's a lot of money we can bring in.
Sharon: That's only if we get the go ahead from the judges.
Madelon: I'm certain this will give them an absolute taste sensation! I'm looking forward to seeing it, actually!
Sharon: I just hope they like spicy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Taiha: Well, there's the two that completely missed the show!
Lawrence: Huh? What did we miss?
Taiha: Oh, nothinggggg...
Lawrence: Damn, we missed something juicy, didn't we?
Carlos: Either way, your heroes are here!
Lawrence: We went all the way back to the store but we finally managed to get the best quality we could find.
Carlos: The most delicious, the most outrageous, the most perfect...
Carlos: ... Bottle of Salad Dressing!
Lawrence: Chyeah bro! We got a little taster at the store and it's fantastic!
Carlos: You've absolutely love it, Madelon.
Carlos: Madelon?
Lawrence: Madelon, are you there?
Carlos: H-hello?
Madelon: This is the greatest day of my life...
Sharon: Welcome back, guys! You came by just in time for me to finish THIS Masterpiece. Check it out! Have a little taste before it goes to the judges!
Lawrence: Totally!
Glen: Well, I'm starting my third test pancake, and I think I'm slowly getting it and slowly calming down. It's a win-win.
Carlos: You? Weren't calm? What happened today?
Glen: You don't wanna know.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Angelica: We're back with the extra supplies for the pancakes!
Tina: We've got some stuff I think you'll really find a treat!
Everett: Tina has been eating gummy bears this whole trip!
Tina: No I haven't!... Angelica was too...
Angelica: You weren't supposed to tell!
Hayden: Here's everything you need, Glen... And I'm sorry for how heated things had gotten. I lost my cool and I apologise. I hope the cooking has been going well.
Glen: Yeah, it's improving... I'm sorry for my outbursts too.
Sharon: Need any help?
Glen: Just need you to mix in some vanilla into the mix and then I can start cooking up a stack.
Sharon: I can do that, give me a moment and it'll be ready!
Madelon: ... It is done ...
Madelon: My Masterpiece... My pièce de résistance... My baby...
Madelon: Behold! My delicious salad! Packed full of vitamins, minerals, nutrients and some delicious surprises! The judges are going to FREAK!
Madelon: Would you like a taste?
Sharon: I would, but the Xtra Hot Sauce in my food has altered my taste forever...
Madelon: Oh dear.
Glen: Well done, girls. Just one more dish and we're golden!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Taiha: Chefs, you managed to bring in three meals. I will list your ingredients with your dish, and how much it is worth based on it's ingredients. If the mystery judges like your meal, you'll earn that much money toward the group kitty. If they don't, The Mole will take that money along with the letter's you've missed!
Taiha: So without further ado! Let's introduce our mystery guests!
Taiha: Tonight's mystery guests are no strangers to fine dining! They've in fact been to this restaurant before! Celebrities that you may (or may not) know!
Taiha: Please introduce our mystery guests...
Taiha: Legendary Stars of TV and Film: Joshua Black and Miranda Pickering! Welcome my kittens!
Joshua: It is a pleasure to be dining with you all this evening.
Miranda: Lovely to be here, dear.
Taiha: Now Miranda, Joshua, as you both know you'll be dining here tonight and tasting some dishes created by our lovely contestants, who, by the way, are amateur cooks, not professionals!
Miranda: Alright, sounds lovely.
Taiha: All you have to do is let us know if you would keep eating and enjoy each of the three dishes our contestant cooks have made for you today! Simple, right? Just dine and enjoy!
Taiha: Our first dish for tonight is by Sharon, and it is a delicious plate of Mexican food: Nachos!
Sharon: Bon Appétit! Enjoy!
Miranda: This is a marvellous experience. I've never been so excited to have nachos before! They look absolutely divine! A perfect cheat day dinner!
Taiha: That's a good sign!
Joshua: I'm a huge fan of spicy food!
Miranda: Me and spicy do not mix!
Joshua: I'm hoping these have a little kick of flavour to them though.
Taiha: Only one way to find out!
*Miranda takes a mouthful*
Miranda: It has a delicious crunch and some good toppings on top!... Ooh! It's got a kick to it! I like it though!
*Joshua takes a mouthful*
Joshua: I'm loving the taste, and it's definitely right up my alley with the spice. Jalapenos and everything! I love it!
Taiha: So? What do you think? Is that a pass, would you keep eating?
Joshua: I'll have more right now if it weren't for the other dishes!
Miranda: It's a big yes from me. Feels professional, even.
Taiha: That's a big yes then! Which means congratulations to Sharon's dish of Nachos.
Miranda: We should dine like this more often.
Joshua: Agreed!
Taiha: With ingredients of Avocado, Tomatoes, Nacho Cheese, Corn Chips, Jalapenos, Pepper and Xtra Hot Sauce. This dish is worth a whopping $2200! Unfortunately it contained incorrect items brought back of Onion, Lime, Salsa and Salt!
Glen: Nice job, kid!
Sharon: I'm super proud!
Taiha: How about we skip straight to dessert, hey?
Joshua: I'm on board! What's on the menu?
Glen: Some surprise pancakes, just for you guys! Enjoy!
Taiha: Glen's Pancake Surprise!
Miranda: Should we be nervous about the "surprise?"
Joshua: By the looks of this sugary, syrupy top. I don't think so at all! Looks devine!
Miranda: Mmmm! It IS divine! Reminds me of childhood bliss! There's even... Gummy Bears?!
Taiha: A little twist!
Miranda: A big yes from me!
Joshua: This cannot be beat! I am loving these meals! I'm expecting a grand finale of a dish coming up. Are you sure these are amateurs?
Taiha: Two yesses! Glen's dish has passed!
Glen: Not bad for an old fart, eh?
Taiha: Glen's pancakes had in them Gummy Bears, Icing Sugar, Flour, Eggs, Vanilla and Butter which means this dish just earnt $1200! Unfortunately, the Maple Syrup, Sugar and Milk were all wasted!
Glen: It's a good effort for what little time I had left!
Taiha: Last up, we have Madelon with her "Masterpiece of a Meal", a grand design of... Salad!
Miranda: I'm used to starting with salad, but I'm interested to see how his plays out!
Madelon: I've never been so excited for someone to try my meals! I hope this isn't another... Llama... You know... Anyway! I'm so ready!
Madelon: Bon Appetit! I hope it's everything you dream!
Taiha: Smells delicious from here!
Miranda: It does smell delicious!
Madelon: The Salad Dressing has been added already, I hope that's okay!
Joshua: It seems the perfect amount, honestly!
Joshua: Let's have a bit of a taste. It all looks so fresh and neat! Mastery...
*Joshua takes a mouthful*
*Miranda takes a mouthful*
...
Miranda: That was extremely... I-... I have no words for how-...
Madelon: Please say amazing. Please say amazing. Please say amazing!
Miranda: TERRIBLE!!!
Madelon: W-whaa...?
Joshua: That was the most offensive thing I have ever tasted in my life!
Miranda: Absolutely salty, grainy and... Bitter?! What even was that flavour?!
Joshua: I hated every second of that... What was in that?!
Miranda: I feel... I feel the gummy bears coming back up? Can we stop the cameras please?!
Joshua: I think we should leave...
Miranda: I think I'm okay but I'm a little disappointed in how gross that was...
Madelon: ... O-oh...
Glen: I'm so sorry, kiddo.
Madelon: ...
Taiha: I'm guessing that makes the official verdict on that meal a no?
Joshua: A big no.
Miranda: No, thank you.
Taiha: And with that, unfortunately, Madelon's salad dish that contained: Rocket, Tomatoes, Dressing, Zucchini, Pepper, Kale, Quinoa and Yams and was a total of $1600, is down the drain tonight. It also contained Onion, Lettuce and Salt which were all worth nothing.
Taiha: Thank you so much to our special guests for tasting these foods.
Miranda: It was a pleasure until it wasn't...
Joshua: Here, here.
Taiha: Thank you to our chefs for you amazing work, and to our runners for their incredible ingredient findings skills.
Taiha: Tonight, $3400 was added to the kitty from the winning meals, but unfortunately the Mole has just earnt themselves, $2600.
Taiha: That's all for tonight. I'll see you all tomorrow for another elimination. Hehe!
