ANIMOLE

CATCH YOU, CATCH ME

The continuation of the chapter, let's see who did it, what and where. And of course, the 5th mole conquest. Enjoy!

* * * *

(The tape ends, remember, the 6 remaining contestants have been watching the murder inquiry, that being Cody and Ken (Team 1), Duplica and Akari (Team 2) and Chiriko and Naoko (Team 3) now have to solve the mystery, as Yukino explains)

Yukino: As mentioned, you guys will now have to figure out who did it, with what, and where? If just one team gets it right, you win the challenge. You'll get one guess at first after you've interviewed the suspects. If you haven't got it right after your first round, then you'll get another piece of footage, and another free question round and basically two guesses each. If you get it right by then, you win the money. If you fail, the 6 suspects get a free pass and one of you six stews tonight.

(With that, Yukino turns)

Yukino: Let's meet our suspects!

(Shot as the 6 walk forward from the darkness in full view, and Yukino introduces them via their characters and their motives)

Yukino: Elizabeth 'Giselle' Peacock: Would lose her home thanks to Felicia. Did she decide to give her a vow of silence?

(Shot of Mustard, e.g. Haley)

Yukino: Michael 'Haley' Mustard: Felicia knew about a team of mercenaries that the Colonel sent to wipe out a set of villagers during the dark war. Did the Colonel add one more casualty to that list?

(Shot of Green, Haitani)

Yukino: It all started with Green's 'gambling', but did it end with Jonathan 'Haitani' Green forgetting 'Thou shall not kill?'

(Shot of Plum, Kensuke)

Yukino: Peter 'Kensuke' Plum suspected something about the gems Felicia was using as paymemt. Was that suspicion enough for murder?

(Shot of Yolei 'Scarlet' Inoue)

Yukino: Miss Vivian 'Yolei' Scarlet wasn't just losing a home, she was losing her wealth and high life. She'd protect anything for that…even murder.

(Finally, Mrs White, Rika looking kawaii in her maid's uniform)

Yukino: Mrs Blanche 'Rika' White seemed to perhaps be the instigator of the deal, and was feeling guilty over it. Did she eliminate the cause of the guilt?

(6 people, all with murder on their minds…)

* * * *

Yukino: So, shall we begin? Team 1: Team Digi by the looks of things, after witnessing the footage, you may choose your first victim and question him or her.

(Shot of Ken whispering to Cody, the two eventually agreeing on a choice)

Ken: I'm going to ask Professor Plum over there, what was the problem with the gems you had with the deceased?

Yukino VO: Little do they know that the 'deceased' along with Misato, is helping in the background, with answers to tough questions which the 6 suspects may have problems with, via little microphones in their ears…

Kensuke: The gems were originally my design. They were created by me, and I'm sure that Felicia's gems were actually versions of mine that she ripped off me. I had heard of the Reverend's money troubles and was going to use them to help him, but Felicia I think was told by the reverend about this…coward…

Haitani: I'm not a coward!

Yukino: Guys, take your pills and relax. Ken, you asked a question that means on the way round, Cody asks the next one. Team 2: Which would be…er? Erm…

Akari: We're…team Fatale.

Yukino: Why?

Akari: (shrugs and points to Duplica) Her idea.

(Duplica sticks her tongue out at Akari)

Akari: O.K, I've been thinking of the evidence and I'm going to ask Miss Scarlet a simple question. The parasol…what did you do with it?

Yolei: (chuckles) You mean did I smash Felicia's head with it? No I didn't. I chucked the thing outside the house where that cat-girls car was.

(Duplica and Akari whisper to each other and as they do this, it's Team 3's term. Team Smarty…Naoko's name. ^_^)

Naoko: To the reverend, were you aware of anything Mrs. White did in your money affairs?

Haitani: I did wonder why I had less money to gamble with, but it simply made me careless in Elizabeth's eyes. I never suspected Blanche of a thing, in fact, I didn't learn of it until I got here.

(Back to Team 1, and Cody quickly follows up that question)

Cody: Mrs. White, how did you exactly get the money off the reverend?

Rika: (after a few moments) The reverend is great, but he's a careless guy. The fact that he chequed in the money and got it ASAP from the bank didn't help. A few notes gone wouldn't have mattered, and made his poor gambling skills worry more, as the money I needed…being a housekeeper isn't demanding in my way, and I guess…theft…was a better way of keeping me alive.

(Team 2 return and Duplica gets the question, either Mustard or Peacock)

Duplica: Colonel, what exactly happened in the Dark War?

Haley: (again, after waiting via instruction from Misato) The Dark War put Darkstalkers and Humans against each other, with the Darkstalkers more powerful but the humans with the numerical advantage. Many were good but that wasn't the way we saw them. I didn't order my men to attack villagers of innocent darkstalkers, but Felicia obviously felt some blame was to me.

(Finally, Chiriko. By default, he gets Peacock)

Chiriko: Mrs. Peacock, if Felicia was out of the way, it meant that your home was safe right?

Giselle: (snorts) Of course, what a stupid question that is.

Yukino: Well, that's it. Based on your evidence and your questioning, you will now present three guesses, who, what and where to me, and I will say how many you've got right…but not WHAT you've got right. If any of you have got all 3 right, you win…and we've even got a monologue from the murderer if you get it as well. So Ken and Cody…

(Ken and Cody are whispering and writing notes down. They can confer with each other but not other teams. They seem to be debating answers, but eventually Ken hands in the first guess)

Yukino: (reading it over) So, you think the murderer was…Colonel Mustard…with the dagger? Interesting. And in the billiard room? Why?

Cody: We have reason to believe he could have stolen the dagger from Peacock in the billiard room and use it as a way to frame her.

Haley: I'd never do anything to her!

Yukino: (sweatdrops) Get into your role right? (to them) Well, I'll tell you in a minute. Now, Duplica and Akari.

(Duplica is talking to Akari, and both seem to focus on the words 'liar' and 'parasol'. Finally, they give their answer.)

Yukino: Interesting. You have…Miss Scarlet, with the Parasol…in the Study. Why?

Duplica: Well…we felt that something happened in the study with a phone call, and I think Yolei….sorry, Scarlet, is lying about the weapon.

Yukino: Really?

Duplica: Yep. In the clip, we saw lots of cases, but Yolei said she threw the parasol out there, and it wasn't when we saw the clip.

Yukino: Not bad detectives, but is it not good either? Finally, Chiriko and Naoko.

(After hearing Team 2's argument, Naoko is wondering if they can change their answer. However, Chiriko stays firm with his choice and hands it to her)

Yukino: And another completely different answer. We have Professor Plum, with the lead piping and in the drawing room.

Chiriko: I think Plum has access to two weapons, the syringe and the pipe. He had the syringe, but that seems too obvious. I think he could have had the pipes from Green or White at a point somewhere. And the drawing room…White was wiping away from footprints…of wax I think from the drawing room right at the beginning, from the murderer.

Yukino: O.K, after round one, let's look at the scores…

Team 1 said Mustard, Dagger, Billiard.

Yukino: You have 0 out of 3. However, that means those three suspicions are removed, which can be a good thing. Oh, and Haley, can't revert back yet, they can still ask you stuff.

Haley: Aww….

Team 2 said Scarlet, Parasol, Study.

Yukino: (smiles) You've got one right.

(Hearing that, the other two teams being righting down what they said)

Team 3 said Plum, Pipe, Drawing Room.

Yukino: And you also got one right!

(Now, Akari has to write those down, as they begin working out the information…)

Yukino: Not bad, but you've got two guesses to go…

(She returns to the videotape, and she presses play)

Yukino: …and to help you, here is some more scenes of what happened the day of the murder…

* * * *

HIDDEN SCENE 1

(Study)

A phone rings…

(We see Felicia answer it)

Felicia: Sister speaking…(we hear conversation on the phone)…yes, we're running out of time. I think Plum is onto something…(silence)..uh huh…don't worry, Tudor Close will be coming home…

Kensuke: (coming in) I KNEW IT! (holding the syringe)

Felicia: What?

Kensuke: Those rubies…they are the same design as the ones I created! YOU STOLE THEM FROM ME!

Felicia: Don't you dare shout at a…

Kensuke: (angry) Why I outta…

(Outside the study, we see a dark shadow listening. We then she the shadow moving, and there is an imprint of a dagger there)

* * * *

(LIBRARY)

Rev. Green enters the library. In there, Mrs. White is busy kneeling, doing something…

Haitani: Blanche?

(Mrs White stands up, the gems are not in her hand now)

Rika: Reverend…(nervous)…um I…

Haitani: Has the sister come in yet?

Rika: No, not yet…are you meeting her?

Haitani: (hesitant) No…not that I know of.

Rika: O.K…let me just (dusts herself down)…O.K see you.

Mrs. White leaves. Green clutches his holy cross more. Suddenly, what she was doing is apparently, as the safe hidden door in the library moves slightly. Green bends over to look…

* * * *

(Shot of Mustard throwing some of Felicia's cases outside the door)

Haley: Take that you…

(Shot of Scarlet coming onto a clean floor with her parasol in hand. She sees the colonel…)

Yolei: What are you doing?

Haley: Someone has to take care of that old bat! In fact, I think I will now! (takes his spear)

(Mustard leaves, ignoring Scarlet's protests…and in a rage, throws the parasol outside the door as well…)

* * * *

(After that evidence, Duplica is whispering to Akari about something and is pointing at Yolei. Chiriko is also whispering to Naoko, who seems to nod in realisation. The third team, Ken and Cody are simply writing notes down, and with quick whispers to each other)

Yukino: O.K, let's see what you think. You guys get to ask ONE question. Then make a guess. If you get it right, you win of course. Ken, Cody, you're up.

Ken: Well, I'd like to ask Peacock something. We've established that the murder weapon wasn't the dagger, so I'd like to ask Peacock, what did she do outside the study?

Peacock: I decided that I was going to confront Felicia about losing my home, and I then heard a scuffle in there and left, wondering what was going on.

Ken: Right. (scribbles something) Well, what do you think Cody?

Cody: Scarlet, parasol, study, Plum, pipe, drawing. 2 of these are correct. I'm am thinking it happened in the study…

Ken: I do too. Last place she was seen alive.

Cody: The weapon…

Ken: The pipe maybe? And…

Cody: Yes, he did have it, and we saw him in the library though. The safe had evidence…

Ken: (interrupting) We'll go with the Reverend Green, with the lead piping and in the study!

Haitani: Oh help me God!

Yukino: Some nice ideology there…and it has rewarded you with…

(Yukino smiles evilly)

Yukino: Absolutely nothing.

(Both Digidestined facefault)

Yukino: Twice and you've got 0, but that means another 3 guys are off your list. I think this requires some thinking…Akari and Duplica, you're up?

Akari: I'd just like to say we observed something and think we've got the murder weapon now, because we think Miss Scarlet was indeed telling the truth earlier, and I apologise.

Yolei: (smiles) Thank you.

Duplica: Which is why I'm going to ask Plum a question. What did you do in the study and where did you go after that?

Kensuke: Felicia left…and I stayed where I was. I made phone calls around using beneficators and experts to come to get the gems, and examine in relation with my prototypes. So…I didn't go anywhere…except at the end when I came down to talk to find Felicia…but Mustard did that before I could.

Akari: Is he lying?

Duplica: He did threaten her…(thinks)…and also he was downstairs and did open the door…yep…

Akari: Plum…with the parasol and where do you think?

Duplica: Library. If she and Green were to meet and we know now he's innocent.

Akari: Plum, parasol, library.

Yukino: So you say Professor Plum, with the parasol, and in the library. You have 1 out of 3 right.

Akari: Awww….

Yukino: So, team 3, Chiriko and Haley, it's your turn….

Chiriko: That doesn't help much, that means that either plum is the murderer or the weapon is the parasol. He said that he used the syringe for the horses, but he never seemed to want to go there…unless…

Naoko: There was that incident when he went outside in the kitchen…

Chiriko: …but he still had the syringe when he went into the study.

Naoko: Was it full?

Chiriko: I don't know…Yukino-san, we're going to bypass the question I think…(the two whisper and nod)…we'll say Professor Plum, with the syringe…and (thinks) as it came from the kitchen, we'll say the kitchen.

Yukino: We're going back and forth here, but with that guess…you've got it wrong! 0 out of 3 which means that 9 out of 18 answers are now removed before the final guess.

SUSPECTS REMAINING: PEACOCK, WHITE, SCARLET

WEAPONS REMAINING: PARASOL, HOLY CROSS, SPEAR

ROOMS REMAINING: DINING ROOM, DRAWING ROOM, LIBRARY

Yukino: Ken, you guys are up…

Ken: We need to figure out what can't be right then…I'd like to ask White who she thought made the footprints then in the wax…

White: Well…(thinks)…it was a small footprint, one of the women, but I can't say for sure who…

Cody: If that's the case, then…(whispers)…it's probably…

Ken: We'd like to say it's…er….Peacock, who could have left the study to go to the drawing room, and then picked up her stepdaughter's parasol to frame it on her, and use it in the drawing room.

Peacock: Aghast you knave!

Yukino: But is he? Peacock, parasol, drawing? (pauses) 2 out of 3.

(Ken sighs in relief and Cody relaxes. Duplica and Akari have been whispering…)

Duplica: I think…we've got it.

Yukino: Really?

Akari: Something we just realised. We think the weapon and room are correct from the earlier guesses, the parasol was missing when Scarlet said she threw it out, which means it was taken, and I also think the footprints prove the murder happened in the drawing room. But that second piece of evidence suggested something else…

Yukino: Pray tell us.

Akari: In the library, the safe was slanted, and Green went down to pick something up. Which is why my question is to Green. What did you find in the safe?

Green: Absolutely nothing.

Akari: (smiles) As we thought. Which means the murder was committed in the drawing room, the weapon was the parasol, and the murderer…is Mrs White!

Rika: What?

Chiriko: (surprised) What?

Naoko: It's a game, not real life.

Chiriko: Oh sorry.

Yukino: Why so sure?

Duplica: We think that she stole the gems, either to help Plum or for her own fiancial worries, and she hid them in the drawing room, because of the wet floor, no-one would look for them. She probably also saw the parasol outside, and probably took it just to give it back to Scarlet. However, Felicia caught her…and then….the rest is history.

Yukino: You say White, parasol and in the drawing room.

(A long pause)

Yukino: You've just won 30 grand.

(Duplica and Akari high five, the other four and the 5 suspects (and 1 'killer') also clap their hands.)

CHALLENGE COMPLETED

Yukino: Well White, you've been found out. Now let's see how it done.

(videotape plays for the last time…with a shot of White in front of the screen)

White: I felt so guilty. I was in cahoots to get Felicia to come here, because I thought it would be better for my life. I was in deep money troubles and with me not wanting to bother Peacock to ask for money. When Green did for the roof, I knew his weaknesses and because of it, I killed two birds with one stone.

(Shot of Mrs. White walking round Tudor Close, after crying to Scarlet)

White: But it seemed too much. I still cared for my family, and I suddenly thought. If Felicia didn't have the gems, she couldn't do anything to the house and I could solve my money problems.

(Shot of White looking to put the gems in the safe, but instead, slips them into her apron front, just before Green comes in)

White: I hoped Green didn't see me, I forgot to shut the safe properly, a mistake. However, I certainly didn't think to kill Felicia…but I opened the door outside which was a bit ajar, and saw a sight.

(Shot of the cases Mustard threw out, as well as the parasol)

White: Something in my housekeeper nature told me to take the parasol and give it back to Scarlet, considering I saw her have it. I went into the drawing room to hide the gems, thinking no-one would know with the wet floor…

(Shot of White putting the gems inside a vase)

White: ..but as I did so…

(Felicia enters, angry)

White: …she caught me red handed.

(Shot of Felicia angry and arguing and grabs White by the apron)

White: I was so scared of what she could do to me, and without thinking…

(White grabs the parasol…and swings for the fences….)

White: …I killed her!

(Shot of White in shock)

White: I tried to cover my tracks as best I could and be as normal as I could be. But I forgot about the wax on the floor…and my footprints.

* * * *

MURDERER – MRS WHITE

WEAPON – PARASOL

ROOM – DRAWING ROOM

Evidence: White's evidence she was trying to hide were her own footprints on the drawing room floor.

The parasol was said that Scarlet through it out, which she did. However, it was missing.

White knew the parasol was in Scarlet's possession.

The safe was dislodged. Only White was in there, and she must have done something.

(Shot of Naoko amazed, but chuckling. Chiriko is in a bit of surprise as well, but smiles as they clap their hands)

Yukino: Well well. Et tu Rika-chan?

(Rika blushes, a bit shell shocked.)

Yukino: Well, now we all know that Rika is a cold-blooded killer in that sweet character, everyone avoid her from now on…especially you Chiriko!

Chiriko: Y-Yukino? What are you…

(A few laugh but Yukino begins to become serious)

Yukino: When it's all said and done, you guys did the job, and won the 30 grand. But the mole? Well…did he or she fail at being an actor? Did they throw off the other detectives long enough? Was the result a perfect double bluff? The mole was still on the high end of things here, but it's up to you guys to figure out if murder and mole go together…

(Yukino shows a sheet)

Yukino: Tonight, you've earned 30 grand, bringing your total up to £74,500. And we're not even half way through yet. Mole, get your act in gear!

Giselle: Duplica, she was talking to you…

Duplica: Ha ha.

Yukino: Anyways, tonight, you guys have a quiz in the Tudor mansion, so I suggest you get ready to do whatevers…

(A mad shuffle as they reach for the UOTFG scripts and head to the Library area, as Yukino sweatdrops)

Yukino: …you want.

* * * *

Naoko: (whispering) So you don't mind liking a natural killer then…

Chiriko: (embarrassed) Stop it!

Rika: (approaching) Let it be Naoko-chan. Besides, Chi-chan hasn't been himself in a while. Are you O.K?

Chiriko: (sighs) I guess…it's just…

(Chiriko stops before he saying anything)

Chiriko: I don't want Rika to know anything about what Giselle knows. It would hurt her…I tell you, I don't care how far she gets, I won't forgive her…

Chiriko: (smiles) It's O.K.

Rika: Aww…don't be like that…(smiles)…hey, I can think of something which is even more evil than what I did before…

Naoko: Please Rika, I was only joking…we know you aren't…

(Rika whispers to Naoko, who then smiles evilly)

Naoko: (cheery) Oh Chi-riko!

(Before the young Chinese boy can react, the two girls jump on him, and do the worst thing imaginable…)

(…the double tickle attack!)

Chiriko: (laughing) Please…please…stop…O.K! O.K! Give! Give!

(Shot of Akari watching them, with a pretty smile)

Akari: Despite the maturity of Rika and Chiriko, and the smarts of Naoko, you have to remember they are still so young. It's nice to see them relax like that…

Akari: It's O.K, you apologised…

????: I know, I still feel guilty though…

Akari: (smiles) It's O.K. If I've survived this far, I can go with my own gut as I had for the last few episodes. Don't worry…

(We don't see who she was talking to (although it is fairly obvious). Meanwhile, teams Digi and Hentai begin their goal to survival…)

Kensuke: So, you're still here?

Haitani: Yep, I'm getting more confident in knowing who the mole is, the longer the game goes on, the better I'll think I'll do.

Kensuke: I know what you mean. I feel that I can focus on anything now…

Haitani: Unless Akari walks by…

Kensuke: That's still focusing on SOMETHING…

(As Haitani sweatdrops…)

Kensuke: Me and Naoko decided to lay off this week, and just enjoy ourselves. I'm glad she's looking a little better now. I hope I can do the same.

Yolei: It was only one challenge…

Cody: So who do you think was trying for the free pass the hardest?

Ken: (thinks) Rika I think.

Yolei: Not necessarily. Do you think either Chiriko or Naoko would have believed Rika was the killer?

Cody: Good point.

Ken: (sighs) I never thought being a detective would have been such hard work.

(Haley wanders over and is a bit hesitant sitting near Yolei, especially with Ken and Cody there. However Yolei smiles and welcomes him)

Yolei: It's O.K Haley, we won't bite!

Haley: Are you sure? If you guys are talking about something I can just…

Ken: Nah, it's O.K. I think we need an extra brain…

Ken: Actually, this helps considering I'm suspecting Haley more and more…

(Giselle meanwhile is waiting for Chiriko, but it seems he's simply enjoying talking to Rika and Naoko. Finally, she loses patience and storms over.)

(Chiriko hears the stomping, and quickly turns. He makes an excuse to leave and sees Giselle coming. He heads over there…)

Giselle: Can't you hear me coming?

Chiriko: Let me be please…

Giselle: No can do (sarcastic) Chi-chan. I said we're going to get to the game together, whether you like it or not…

Chiriko: You're smart enough to do this by yourself!

Giselle: Maybe but…

(Out of the corner of her eye, Giselle spots Duplica, Yolei, and Akari moving closer to where they are, just talking. Giselle sighs and quietly leaves, leaving Chiriko distraught.)

(However…)

Akari: Chi-chan?

(Chiriko cries in the CB's arms, as Duplica looks on in disgust…)

Duplica: (quietly) Don't worry, she'll get hers…

(Yolei and Akari nod, a bit steamed at Miss Dexter. Let's see then…)

* * * *

(Shot of Chiriko taking the quiz, he looks distraught)

Chiriko: My mind has really gone blank, I don't know how much I can take…either one of us goes soon otherwise…all I can say is I hope she isn't the mole otherwise this could be rather long…but to be honest, I'm going to stick to my guns and say that she isn't the mole…and Ken could be. He seemed at first very poor then all of a sudden made good progress as the two girls got the win. And the pressure would have been on us if we didn't…

(Next up is Yolei. On question 2 'Does the mole have OR gives a nickame out in their show?' She clicks 'No')

Yolei: Haley is still a suspect in my eyes, but the Cluedo didn't tell us much. Ken thinks Rika and Chiriko could be suspicious…but what about Naoko? I don't think I've considered her to be a mole and yet she has done plenty of stuff to warrant it. Shows the game is getting a bit of a handful…

(Duplica now tapping her fingers occassionally and looking at the screen…)

Duplica: I'm going on my gut and say Akari isn't the mole. A mistake or not? I hope former than latter. Besides which, in the Cluedo quiz, the three I saw which seemed genuinely interesting to going for the free pass were Rika, Yolei and Kensuke. Does that means they needed it…or were they bluffing?

(Cody now looking through, and is on Q3 'How many times has the moles name come up in the executions of the last 4 quizzes?' Cody has to guess in the end.)

Cody: I voted for Shampoo last time, but nearly blew it. It makes it more suspicious that the mole is Rika or even Haitani, but Ken seemed to think it's Chiriko or Haley, and Yolei thinks it might be Naoko! I'm so confused!

(Akari shakes her bangs clear as they are blocking her view of the screen)

Akari: Haley is still a suspect, although he seemed nervous in the Cluedo game. Yolei remains a suspect as well, as does Ken. I'm thinking it is a digidestined, but everyone seems suspicious…heck, sometimes I think I'm the mole! (pauses) But I'm not…honest!

(Kensuke on Q5 – Who did the mole play as?)

Kensuke: I didn't get together with Naoko today so I'm not sure what she's thinking, but I'm thinking the mole is either Akari or one of the two pokemon girls. And I'm leaning more towards Giselle now if what she did to Chiriko was any indication…unless Akari and Duplica played an amazing double bluff…then again, the mole is always right…

(Haitani having a good think, but has a smile on his face)

Haitani: Looking through the scripts and with Kensuke helped a bit, because I'm wondering if something that happened in Nerima was a key to the mole's identity. Hinako has two sides to herself, as does a mole. Was Duplica's meeting with her…coincidental? I think not.

(Naoko on Q6, and is a bit surprised by it.)

Naoko: The more thoughts you have, the more you need them for the quizzes. I'm confident I can win this…and more confident on who the mole is. And it wouldn't surprise me if Rika was the mole. However, I'm 30% on her, and 30% on Chirko and 40% Giselle at the moment.

(Rika is next, still smiling even after the whole 'murder' experience)

Rika: I have a good eye, and I was observing everyone on set. If the mole is someone on there, I have a good hunch it is. Haley and Yolei were different ends of the spectrum, one nervous and one confident…and both of these personas can throw you off.

(Giselle on Q8, 'Does the mole ever sing in a Japanese song of their show?' She clicks 'No.')

Giselle: I play to win, you should know that. Chiriko's façade was broken, and next time, I shall see if he is the mole or not. I'm confident he is, you've seen the shows, the mole works with someone, which means he or she is going to win. And as long as Rika doesn't know, this works for me.

(Finally, Haley is on the dreaded Q10, 'Who is the mole?')

Haley: Five episodes in, and I've still held my strategy of spreading my answers. However, I think I need to have a definite suspect by next time. At the moment, either one of the CCS girls, a digidestined or a pokemon trainer are my lead suspects, but hopefully, as long as I'm here, I'll be able to narrow that down little by little.

* * * *

(Shot of Tudor Close, in the library area of course. The 12 are sat in groups of three, Rika, Naoko and Chiriko on Table 1, Giselle, Duplica and Akari on Table 2, Cody, Yolei and Ken on Table 3, and Haley, Kensuke and Haitani on Table 4.)

(Yukino enters with her laptop…)

Yukino: Well guys, a long couple of days, but you were rewarded in the end. 6 of you could have got a free pass…instead, despite some of you trying, the money was won instead. Over seventy thousand pounds is now yours, congratulations.

(The group smile, nod, etc.)

Yukino: However, whilst one of you will see that money and possibly more, one of you will be going home tonight. Tonight's execution has begun. I think it's fair to say that the first one in line for execution should be…our murderer, Miss Sasaki, I mean White.

(Yukino types in 'RIKA' as the polite girl simply closes her eyes with a smile on her face)

(Flashes green. Rika gets a pat on the back from Naoko and a smile from Chiriko.)

Yukino: Ken.

(Ken simply stares ahead as Yukino types 'KEN' in.)

(Flashes green. Ken nods as Yolei hugs him.)

Yukino: Giselle.

(Giselle nods. By the side of her, as Yukino types in 'GISELLE', both Akari and Duplica cross their fingers, unknown to the Tech girl.)

(Flashes green. Giselle smiles, although she could have swore she heard a faint sigh of disappointment)

Yukino: Haley.

(Haley nods as Yolei looks at him, Yukino types 'HALEY' in.)

(Flashes green. Haley sighs in relief as Yolei gives him a thumbs up)

Yukino: Naoko.

(Naoko nods as Rika's puts an arm around her friend. 'NAOKO' is typed.)

(Flashes green. Two CCS girls chirp with glee as a few of the others laugh)

Yukino: Half way, Cody.

(Cody nods, as Yukino types in his name, 'CODY' Yolei clutching his hand)

(Flashes…red. Cody with a small sigh simply smiles and shakes his head)

Yukino: Mr. Hida, we have to go.

Cody: (bowing to each four tables) I wish you all the best of luck.

(Yolei hugs the young boy, crying slightly. Ken puts a hand on his shoulder. Most of them shakes his head, although a few of the girls hug him before Cody leaves with his bags. Yukino follows him out, as he's ready to go home)

Yolei: What can I say? He's been a friend of mine ever since I knew him as a baby…of course I wanted him to stay…it just doesn't seem fair…

Duplica: We've shared similar experiences in these shows, and it's a shame I didn't get to know him better, I thought he could have won it, that air of careful seriousness seemed to work wonders for him.

Ken: We're friends now, and it's a shame that it ended so early. He should be proud of himself.

(Cody leaves as Skuld is ready to take him home.)

Yukino: You did much better I think than you may think.

Cody: (sighs) I guess I'll never get used to these reality games.

Yukino: Don't worry…neither will I. (chuckles) Of course I'd win but…

(Cody laughs as the two shake hands, as Cody, the moles 5th victim, takes an early bath…)

Next time;

Space….Travel 5. Do the teams have the stomach for the space training? But why?

Well…they've got to find a couple of places. Now, why do the words Sun and Moon come to mind?

Oh yes! Time for the now seeming obligatory crossover to crossover story! For two pokemon girls, it's where it started, and from there, an alliance becomes official, a romance gets closer, and a party looms for the mole tribe…but is it all glitz and glimmer?

And who is the moles 6th victim?

Well, once again, someone who has been voted for a number of times has gone. Again, I could have held Cody on longer, but he was scheduled for 5th, and 5th he goes.

I don't think I need to explain what the next episode is about…

The quiz is to be submitted for Tuesday the 15th…although the episode itself is pretty tentative. Hopefully more information when I get it.

And as for the quiz itself…

ANIMOLE QUIZ 5

For newcomers, this is the last chance to enter the quiz for the prize. Fortunately, for those who wanted to be in it last week, I should include you in the mailing list. Remember though, you must then enter quizzes 6 and 7 to be eligible (and then enter 4 out of quizzes 8-14). Fortunately, almost everyone who has entered has already done 3, so they are safe.

At the half-way point (episode 7) I will be doing a half-time sheet as a special chapter to the mailing list only. Also on there, I will be doing a poll and one of the questions that may be on it is 'Would you like executions?' At the moment, I'm still not going to execute anybody…but what about you guys and girls out there? Do you want to see if you've survived or not? Your call.

Anyway, I'm going to now write a very nice scene of Azusa getting her backside slammed into the ice by Konatsu. *grins evilly* See you.
