Frederique and Erik continue to try to explain to Kathy what exactly she's supposed to be pulling on. Ahmad announces that they have five minutes left. Erik swims over to Kathy to try to explain. In an interview, Erik says that the bag was right underneath her and that he must have explained what to do five times, but she didn't understand. In an interview, Kathy imitates Erik's instruction to her by screaming, "Go! Pull it up! Why don't you get it? Pull it up! Pull it up!" Kathy says it wasn't what she was looking for. Erik says he thinks Kathy was just trying to throw him off because their coalition was terminated. Kathy finally dives under with four and a half minutes left and pulls on the right thing, bringing a bag of money to the surface. In an interview, Kathy imitates Erik asking her why it took her so long to get the bag. Kathy explains to the others how she was trying to lift the bag of weights instead of the money. Ahmad congratulates them and says that the pot is now at $233,000. He asks if they are ready to take the final quiz. In an interview, Erik says that if Kathy has been leading him on all this time, he might never believe anything anyone says ever again. I have to say that I have not understood the Erik love by some of our forum posters at any point, except when he was in the pool with his hair slicked back. I think it's his hair that's totally throwing me off.

Time for the quiz. They have to sit on the lawn to make it more dramatic. Ahmad congratulates them all for making it so far and reminds them about the pot total. It's a twenty-question quiz and goes all the way back to the beginning of the game. Which is not as big a deal, since their game began, like, a week earlier. While we see the quiz questions, they splice in some interview footage. Erik says he loves Kathy, but that he doesn't think she was really trying when she maneuvered the joystick during the "On the Line" game. Frederique says that Kathy didn't try to herd sheep during the "Baa Baa Black Jack" game.

I don't normally list quiz questions, but this one bugged me because I feel like it gave away at least one person who isn't The Mole. So if you don't want to know that type of information, skip right down to the next paragraph. The question is: "In the 'Baa Baa Black Jack' game, who stood on the Mole's left when Stephen earned his exemption?" The possible answers are all seven original players. Then they show a clip of that moment, and Erik is on the far left side, so there is no one to his left. And "none of the above" or "no one" was not an answer to the question, so Erik can't be The Mole. Right? Unless the clip they showed was not the positioning to which the question referred. I know that's nitpicky, but it bugged me. ["Or maybe they flipped the image to mess with you." -- Wing Chun]
