The Mole season 2 on Netflix has been a puzzling mystery since it premiered on June 28. Fans of the show are as clueless as the contestants when it comes to knowing who the mole is.
The gameplay started with 12 contestants and has now been reduced to 6 contestants by the end of episode 8. With the pool of contestants now smaller, and the finale episodes 9 and 10 inching closer, fans of The Mole season 2 have flocked to social media platforms to share who their suspect is.
None of the remaining 6 players were exempted from the guesses fans made, but some were named more than others. Fans were also enthusiastic about the theories they suspected the mole with. Taking up to the social media platform X(formerly Twitter), one fan said:
"I Really Feel Like The One Who Is Quiet And Nice May Be The Mole Like Deanna. Muna Is Confusing Too," one person said.
"Ryan has been my number one mole suspect since she sabotaged the gift mission. And I know the producers wanted us to see that. But it also seemed like she thought no one would notice, especially because they had divvied up the tables. A candid mole moment," another person said.
"1000% convinced Hannah is the mole and using tony as her shield bc that came so out of nowhere. If so she’s a genius," one netizen said.
Ryan was one of the most named contestants among the suspected mole guesses. While some netizens theorized based on their observations during The Mole season 2 tasks.
"The layout of the very first challenge is in the shape of a male symbol, hinting the mole this season is a male. the ship name in the treasure chest challenge translates to “green field” and michael plays in a gay flag football team. the server/gifts challenge," another user said.
"My money is on Ryan being the Mole. I thought Deanna for a while but nope, it's Ryan," another person commented.
"Sean pisses me off. He's so shifty. My suspects are him or Ryan," another user said.
"Deanna with that phone call, tho. Even if she isn't the mole, she definitely heard Sean & stalled so that 15 seconds would get eatin up," one user theorized.
Suspicious behavior from the remaining contestants on The Mole season 2
Each of the 6 remaining contestants has been caught by fellow players and the viewers, indulging in some suspicious behavior, so no player is off the hook. They are trying to portray themselves as the mole so that the players would vote for them in the quiz, and lose.
Sean has been apparently caught acting flaky several times, but most importantly when he took off a picture from the board of pictures on episode 5 of the show, in the task involving the guests. Hannah was ready to drain the pot to zero to win an exemption, which was speculated to be mole-like.
Ryan called the clocktower a "Big Ben Statue" in the episode 8 task, while Deanna wasted time speaking to Sean on the phone call in the same task. Michael could've tried potentially sabotaging by cutting the wrong wire in the episode 7 task.
Muna lied about taking the correction in episode 2 of The Mole season 2, which caused Jennifer's elimination, yet Muna was unphased. Now it is for the fans to look at the clues and guess their best while they wait for the game to unfold in the coming week.
Episodes 9 and 10 of The Mole season 2 come out on Friday, July 12, only on Netflix.
