WIDM 2021, Episode 1
A new season #WIDM , so also a new blog of mine. I have said funny times that I should change the first letter of my first name to an M...;)
Ten candidates. One Mole. I don't know everyone, but that doesn't matter at all in this game. After all, the Flemish variant has only 'unknown' candidates and that makes the game no less important.
In the Mole booklet on the first page there is a quote: βDe Mol never stands for joker.β The last page of the same booklet shows the joker (card, of course with Widm logo). The joker may play a very important role this season...
The episode begins. We see all kinds of shots of an old monastery. And hear a creaking door. There is a butterfly (moth?) in the picture. Is this a clue to the identity of the Mole (someone who works at night)?
Assignment: Through a door (max 2500 euro)
We see all kinds of shots of different spaces. A shadow moves down the hallway. It's obviously the Mole. Looks like he/she's wearing a hood. The assignment begins. Charlotte is in a blue room, Erik's room is green. Why is Erik even wearing sunglasses? Lakshmi is in the middle of a yellow room. The space of Splinter seems to match his outfit, because the paper also has a print. We hear Splinter's voice while the camera scans across space. The wallpaper is already starting to peel off quite well and a T is visible. While Splinter talks about 'his room' we hear a laugh (is this the Mole, but delayed?) Splinter walks on the table and picks up one of the candidate cards. He'll leave the envelope alone for a while. Splinter says he knows Charlotte Nijs. βI like that.β
