Nicole: "As of late, we actually came to an understanding, and so even though I spent 90% of the game hating Paul, now it's just like oh, okay. It's not as big a victory as I thought it would be."

Mark: "I think that a lot of things fell my way. I feel very fortunate for that. But I'm here, and that's an amazing feeling."

One last time, we zoom in from space on Buenos Aires. The final three eat breakfast together. Nicole remarks on it being the round of the final three.

Mark: "I feel great about making it into the final three, but I'm worried. I'm not gonna sit here and lie and say oh yeah, I've known who it's been all along. I haven't. I haven't had a clue. If it's Craig, Nicole knows. If it's Nicole, Craig knows. I don't think either one of them is targeting me."

Craig jokingly suggests Nicole self-execute at this point.

Nicole: "I really think that Craig is the Mole. If he's not the Mole, I'm gonna faint. I will fall out of the chair. Literally."

Craig: "Mark could definitely be the Mole. He's at the top of my list, but I'm still not positive who the Mole is, and that is terrifying at this point in the game."

The final three meet Jon in a high-tech looking room, with a green laser connected to a giant clock, some clocks on the wall, along with letters like Scrabble tiles and a list of cities. There's also a glass writing board, with a number of blanks on it.

There's no time for congratulations at having made it this far. This mission is called Tick Tock Boom. There's a bomb behind Jon in a bulletproof glass case. The players' mission is to, within 60 minutes, defuse the bomb and save the $50,000 cash that is in the case with it. Everything they need to defuse the bomb is in the room.

The mission begins. Good luck.

Nicole: "We are to defuse a bomb that is attached to $50,000. And that's all the instruction Jon gives us. He says, 'Good luck.' He leaves the room, because he knows something's gonna blow up and he doesn't want to be there!"

There's pliers, and something to cut wires. They have to figure out which wire to cut to defuse the bomb. They must use the remaining items in the room to figure out which wire to cut. In addition to everything that's in plain sight, there's also a hidden item that is crucial to solving the puzzle.

Nicole finds the glass board with the blanks, and suggests that the clocks on the wall have to mean something. Mark points out that just below the clocks is something that says "12:00 Greenwich Mean Time."

Craig: "On one wall, there's Greenwich Mean Time, with 24 cities underneath. And some of them have like minus 15 minutes, plus 45 minutes, minus 30 minutes."

Craig suggests they keep looking around and try to find some more stuff to help them. Mark thinks the clocks correspond to the cities on the board. Craig points out that there are 24 blanks on the glass board, and there are 24 cities on the wall.

Mark and Nicole are both reasoning through the relationship between Greenwich and the other cities. Craig finds a time zone map that can be pulled down if two people pull handles that are run through the floor. This is the hidden element that they need to solve the puzzle.

Mark: "We all pretty much agreed unanimously that what we needed to do was find the time on the map and then it would tell us whether it was plus or minus hours from the time in Greenwich, England, which on the board was 12:00."

Nicole calls out a few times from the map to correspond with cities on the board. Paris and Greenwich are in the same time zone, so that's zero. Anchorage, Alaska is minus ten hours. Dallas is minus six. The next is United Arab Emirates. Nicole has a little trouble tracing locations and the somewhat jagged lines to the time numbers at the top of the map.

Nicole: "So you're looking at the map, and you see a squiggly line going this way, you see another squiggly line going that way, and so I'm trying to count down, and then I get stuck."

Nicole can't find Samoa. Craig tells her to skip it and go to the next one, but right as he says that she finds it. Minus twelve.

Nicole takes Mark's spot on the handles, allowing him to work on the map.

Mark: "The way to keep my eye on my fellow players is to make sure nobody is doing the same job all the time. I held the map, I wrote times down, I tried to get involved in everything as a way to maybe see if anything strange was going on."

Mark has put the last time, Burma, on the board. Nicole and Craig put the map down, and she suggests you take the time from Greenwich, 12:00, and go plus five hours, minus seven hours, plus eight hours, minus 45 minutes, and so on. There are 24 cities, and 24 blanks on the glass board, so Nicole thinks the cities will yield letters for the blanks, which will then add up to a color, a wire to cut.

Nicole: "I don't think that we're going to be able to accomplish this mission. We're freaking out."

Mark says they're looking really stupid at this point.

Craig: "There's $50,000 in a suitcase. If we don't defuse that bomb, the whole thing's gonna blow up."

The players have accomplished the first two steps of the mission by finding the map and writing down the times for each of the 24 cities on the board. But two more steps remain to defuse the bomb and win the $50,000, and time is running short.

Craig: "Mark and Nicole were fixated with the clocks on the walls. So I'm like, what about the giant thing in the middle of the room? So we figure out that the cities and the time zones from Greenwich Mean Time, correspond to the time on the clock, which correspond to the letter that it points to, which we need to write on the clear white board."

The laser connected to the clock points to different letters in succession when it's made to show the different times away from Greenwich Mean Time. The first letter is U. The next an I. It seems they might need to unscramble the letters. E. Another E. This does not resemble a word.

They get the other times into the giant clock, and get UIEE CFRU UASD BELI EUUD LSUC.

Nicole: "I didn't think we were doing it right, because the letters, they didn't make sense, and I was getting a little miffed."

Mark spells out CLUE USE in the blanks. He writes this in the first seven blanks on the board. He wants to form the word WIRE, but there's no W among the letters they have.

Nicole: "After all those letters came on the board, they didn't make any sense."

Craig: "It didn't seem like we could make a sentence out of the letters that we had. So I wanted to double-check."

Nicole finds some errors from their previous work.

Mark: "The map, I thought, was fairly clearly labeled. So to me, the most suspicious activity I saw was Nicole fumbling with the map."

Craig: "I don't know if Nicole was trying to act Molish or if she was just making mistakes. She's done both in the past."

Nicole's having some trouble finding some South Pacific islands.

Nicole: "It's a flat map, but the world is actually round. When it comes to deciphering that kind of stuff, it takes me a little time."

To.....read a map?

Mark finds Tonga, which Nicole was struggling to do. The letters change to UIEE CFRD DASD BELI EUUD LSTC.

Mark: "If Nicole is the Mole, you can't stop her from messing up the mission. She wasn't counting on the fact that I'd be able to come up with three or four letters even with mistakes."

Mark finds the last words are RED + BLUE. There's a purple wire, so Craig suggests that's the one to cut. Mark questions whether it's the purple wire, or a red wire and a blue wire.

Nicole: "When you put red and blue together, you get purple. Now the question was, do you cut red and blue, or purple."

Nicole says to cut purple. Mark isn't as confident.

Craig: "It seemed like Mark was trying to stall, and I was frustrated with him overthinking and not doing. Mark's the one you gotta watch out for."

They're under a minute to go. Craig says to just cut the purple one. Red + blue is purple. Mark seems resigned to this.

Nicole: "If we cut the wrong wire, the bomb would explode, and $50,000 would be scattered to the wind."

Craig fits the bolt cutters around the purple wire.

Craig: "My heart was beating, my hands were shaking, it was nuts."

Mark: "Craig cut the wire, and nothing happened."

The bomb timer has been turned off. Victory.

TICK TOCK BOOM - +$50,000

TOTAL - $418,500

Craig: "This was the most spy-like mission, and it took all of us working together to figure it out."

Jon re-enters the room and congratulates them for winning the mission. The correct message that belonged in the blanks on the glass board was CLUE: CUT WIRE THAT IS RED + BLUE. They found enough of the message to bring the 50 grand home.

The players head back to the hotel. They all seem to have loved the last mission.

Nicole: "Even if I am dead wrong about who the Mole is, it doesn't matter! I'm still in the top three regardless, which is an amazing feat. Yeah, I kicked ass. I'm a bad-ass!"

The players meet Jon in central Buenos Aires for their final mission. They're at the casa rosada, the pink house. It's where the Argentine President lives and works. This mission is called Three to Tango, and it's worth $75,000.

Each player gets a set of clues unique to them, and a cell phone. This mission involves solving clues and heading to specific locations in Buenos Aires to complete mini-tasks, of which there must be a cell phone photo taken. After three locations and three tasks, it'll be off to the final destination, and the first player there gets the choice of whether to add $75,000 to the pot, or open that briefcase, which contains the Mole dossier. The Mole dossier may have valuable information for the final quiz - or it may not.

The players head off in opposite directions. After they solve their first clue, they must call Jon and confirm the correct location. Nicole's first clue says The Argentine flag was first raised on these grounds, where a famous tall monument stands high and proud.

Nicole: "When I find out I have to run.....I know Mark's gonna run full speed. There should be no more running, sweating, squatting, jumping, trudging, dangling...nothing!"

That's our Doctor Diva...

Mark's first clue is You may still fall victim to the Mole's façade, unless you can get to the place Libertad.

Mark: "I'm a very strong runner, but Craig knows this city way better than I do. He's been reading about it since day one that he got into his room. So I thought that I might struggle, I mean, running doesn't do you any good if you don't know where the heck you're going."

Craig reads his first clue: Shop till you drop on the street that's first rate. The sun always shines on this US state.

Craig: "My clue was a street for shopping named after the Sunshine State. So I knew that was Florida.

"Three to Tango was a mission made for me. As a traveler, this is right up my alley."

Craig calls Jon and tells him Florida Street. It's correct. At Florida Street, Craig needs to find a leather store that will let him try on a leather jacket, and he must send Jon a cell phone photo of himself in the leather jacket.

Craig: "When I got to Florida Street, I needed to find a shop that would let me try on a leather jacket. They found me a jacket that actually fit! It was awesome. I really wanted to buy the jacket, but since I was on a mission, I didn't have any money. Can we go back?"

He gets the picture. Looking sharp.

Mark finds a local who speaks some English and directs him to the correct place - Plaza Libertad.

Mark: "My map did not come out of the envelope one time. I relied 100% on the people of Buenos Aires to help me.

"It's not easy, running through the streets of Buenos Aires. You gotta watch for the traffic. I just tried not to be rude."

Mark calls Jon with the answer, and Jon and tells him to go to the statue of Adolfo Alsina, and send him a picture of himself in front of that statue.

Nicole studies her map on a park bench and finds her first clue. Her task at the Obelisco is to get an Argentinian flag and take a picture of herself with the flag in front of the Obelisco.

Craig's next clue is It takes two to tango at this teatro where porteños perform for some big dinero.

Craig: "Just sent the picture to Jon, and I'm already looking for the next clue."

He calls Jon and guesses that his next location is the Teatro Colón. This is incorrect. He then guesses the Palacio San Martín. Nope. The Museo de Arte Moderno? Jon suspects Craig is just going to keep guessing, and then tells him it's not the Museo.

Nicole arrives at the Obelisco and takes her first picture. Jon gets the photo, but the Argentinian flag isn't in the shot. Nicole snaps several more shots, with the flag that flies beside the Obelisco, but is still missing a key element in her task - she has to get an Argentinian flag and have it in the picture with her.

Nicole: "I sent at least 5 different pictures of me and this flag."

Jon reiterates the clue, that she must get an Argentinian flag.

Nicole simply hangs up and says she's not arguing with Jon anymore.

Mark still can't find Plaza Libertad.

Mark: "I am not good at handling situations that are out of my control. It seemed like it was taking forever."

He continues running towards what he hopes is the location.

Craig still can't the correct location for his second clue. He guesses Teatro Maipu. Also incorrect. Mark still can't find his first location. Nicole still is ignoring the word "get."

Nicole: "He said that I actually had to go and get an Argentinian flag from a person. So I went into a store, and they had little tiny flags, and so I asked them very politely in my terrible Spanish, may I borrow this, and they were nice enough and they let me have it. After that, I was totally put off from the rest of the mission."

Nicole sends a picture that finally satisfies the first task.

Nicole quickly solves her second clue, which is Slowly heat milk and you will discover the nation's top sweet that is brownish in color.

Nicole calls Jon with the answer dulce de leche. Correct. Her task is to convince someone to buy her some dulce de leche, and snap a picture as she has a taste.

After Craig learns that porteño is a term for the people of Buenos Aires, he makes a lucky guess.

Craig: "So I said, Tango Porteño Theater? And so I just stumbled across the right name!"

His task at Tango Porteño is to stand in front of the theater and convince a beautiful woman to strike a tango pose with him, and get a photo of it to send back to Jon.

Mark is still in search of the Plaza Libertad. He finally finds it.

Mark: "Once I get to the Plaza Libertad, I have to take a picture of myself with the statue, and boy, you couldn't miss it, huge statue right in the middle of the plaza."

His next clue is If you are hungry, please pull up a seat for a deep fried pocket of chicken, cheese or meat. This describes an empanada, the answer Mark phones to Jon. It's correct. Mark's task is to get someone to buy him an empanada and take a picture of him and the person who bought it for him. He very quickly finds a group of teenagers keen to help him out.

Mark: "The people of Buenos Aires were very friendly. The next thing I know, I had a parade of like six youths following me to an empanada stand. They were having a ball."

They get the picture of Mark taking a big old bite out of the empanada.

Nicole: "When things in life get to be ridiculous, sometimes you just have to do a little dance!

"I got a guy to buy one for me, but when we went up to the counter, all they had was chocolate. I was like well you know, we'll just stir it up, and just take the picture, see what happens."

She dances to the dulce de leche stand.

Jon tells her the first photo she sent doesn't count. She vainly tries to convince him it was dulce de leche and not a chocolate sundae, but Jon has Mole spies giving him the straight story. She still has to get a picture with dulce de leche.

Mark's last clue is In this building is a representative band who vote for the rights of every woman and man.

It's the Argentine Congress building. They passed a law to make sure at least one-third of the representative body is always women. Mark's task is to take a picture in front of the Congress building with himself and an Argentine woman. He gets directions there from some people on the street. He's twenty blocks away and sets off running.

Nicole must once again ask someone to buy her dulce de leche. She succeeds, getting an older gentleman to help her out. He tells her to cómelo todo and pushes the cup toward her.

Nicole: "Then he's like, 'Eat the whole thing!' So as he was sitting there, I had to keep shoveling this stuff down my throat."

Craig looks for the Tango Porteño theater, and is not getting any help.

Craig: "I've asked 20 or 30 locals and nobody has ever heard of the Tango Porteño theater. One tourist said, 'I think I saw it next to the Colón Theater."

Craig finally finds it. He gets his tango pose. Nicole's dulce de leche picture counts this time, so she gets her final clue. It's The crowds will be huge so go live la vida loca at the game for the team in place called La Boca.

She's solved it, with the help of a passerby. It's Boca Junior. She has to find the stadium for the Boca Junior soccer team, where that night they play their archenemy Brazil. Once there, she must convince a Boca Junior fan to let her try on their jersey.

Craig's last clue is Peron's second wife won the hearts of her people. She's resting in peace right next to a steeple.

It's the Cemeterio de la Recoleta. He must get to Evita's grave and send in a photo of the family name above the crypt.

Craig: "I found that on the map, and I could see how to get there from where I was, so I was home free."

Nicole pinpoints her final location on the map. It's kind of a long way away. Mark and Craig race toward their final locations as well.

Mark: "I had to go to the Argentinian Congress, and take a picture with a woman."

Craig: "When I get to the cemetery, there's a directory, and I immediately look up Eva Perón. You go straight, you make a left at Jesus, go down the avenue, I think about halfway down, and it'll be on your left."

Craig gets his photos. Mark has his as well, and the two send them in to Jon at almost the exact same time.

Jon puts Mark essentially on hold to deal with Craig first. He will be sent a photo for his final destination, having completed his tasks. Craig recognizes it instantly, calling it the Calatrava bridge.

Calatrava is actually the architect's name, however. The name of the bridge is "Puente de la mujer," which in English means "The woman's bridge."

Craig: "I knew exactly where it was. So I was like, bonus! I've got this thing won, let's go."

Mark gets the same photo. He recognizes it, and knows it's the bridge Craig's been anxious to visit, and that Craig would thus know exactly where it is.

Mark: "Craig has been dying to walk on that bridge since the day we got here. He knows where it is. I just knew that I was in trouble."

It's nearly four hours into the mission. Nicole is looking for her next location. Craig and Mark are both racing to the Calatrava bridge. The winner gets to make a huge decision.

Mark: "The majority of my brain said, this is over, but the competitive me said, you know what, don't be a baby, run, get there as quick as you can, you never know what happens."

The bridge is in sight. Mark has made it. Jon greets him. He walks Mark to the other side of the bridge, and tells him he made it to the finish first.

Mark: "Jon informs me that I have arrived first, and I was - I was shocked."

Now the big decision. Will it be the money, or the dossier?

Mark: "I am assuming that the Mole's dossier will be information about the Mole, or about the Mole's activities. And those things could be put on the quiz. However, $75,000 is a lot of money."

Jon tells Mark he'll walk away and wait for the others. When they arrive, he'll send for Mark and he'll need his decision.

Craig arrives, and he recognizes somebody out there on the bridge.

Craig: "I can see Mark out there on the bridge, and my heart just sank. This was my mission to lose."

Jon gives him the good news - he's not last! They still have to wait for Nicole.

A car is sent to retrieve her.

It's time to find out Mark's big decision. The time has come. The decision has been made. He says the game is more about the quizzes than the mission, so he's going to take the dossier.

Nicole: "Once the dossier has been opened, the quiz will change, because whatever's in the dossier will end up on the final quiz. You know, there could be anything in there; of course, I'll never know."

Mark opens the briefcase. There's a leather folder with a big green thumbprint on it inside.

Mark: "I hope to find, in the Mole's dossier, at least one piece that I have been missing."

Mark inspects the contents.

Craig: "I am a little disappointed that Mark took the dossier instead of putting money in the pot, but it wasn't unexpected, because it's the Mole's job to keep money out of the pot."

The dossier is Mark's to keep, and the game is over. But Jon does throw the players a bone, and rounds the pot total up $1,500, to a nice, even $420,000.

THREE TO TANGO FAILED

TOTAL - $420,000

Craig: "Winning all that money would allow me to live a life that I've been wanting to live forever, you know, owning my own company and having the freedom to do whatever I want to do. It would actually be the culmination of the adventure of a lifetime."

It's the last supper. Jon asks the players what stands out between the beginning and now. Craig says everything he thought he couldn't do. He faced fears that he didn't even know he had. Nicole says the bungee jump, and doing it well. Mark says it's been emotionally way harder than he thought it would be, but it's been fun.

Mark: "I work two jobs, my wife works two jobs. So the money is important to me, so that she can stop working and be mom full-time, which is something she's always been wanting to do. So that would just mean everything to me."

Tonight is the final quiz. This quiz, as always, is 20 questions, going back to the beginning of the game.

Nicole: "I am not at all confident about this last quiz. But I'm gonna do everything in my power to try and win!"

Nicole says she clicks fast, and that's really the only reason she is still here. Pure skill, says Craig, jokingly.

Craig: "It is a lot more pressure than the other nights. I'm run-down, and I am weary, but I'm still gonna do it as best I can, fast as I can."

Mark: "To ensure myself a win, I have to make sure that I pick the right person as the Mole. I need to be as accurate as possible in a reasonable amount of time. But if I have the wrong person selected, it really doesn't matter.

"It's all down to this last quiz now. So hopefully I'm on the right track. Hopefully I have written down the appropriate facts, and if I can win, that would be great."

Craig: "Twenty questions between me and $420,000! Wish me luck, 'cause I need it."

Nicole: "This journey has gotten me closer to becoming what I am to become - physician, poet, Renaissance woman forever, and that's who I am. Now that the journey is over, let the next adventure begin."

The final three meet up at Floralis Generica. The sculpture behind them opens daily at sunrise and closes at sunset. It's sunset for one of them as well. The entire game comes down to this moment.
