My initial pick for the mole is William because in the first episode there was a scene of him wiggling his nose, which struck me as a particularly molish gesture. He is fanatical, but doesn't really help in getting money.

If his strategy was to answer the largest group, in questions about the third task he would not have answered Marit. Marit was also in the smallest group in the speedboat challenge. The only thing that detracts is that Marit seems really good at the challenges. She was really on Maarten in the tower to make sure they were getting the right numbers. Again though, this was a challenge where she could do well without directly earning the group money- it was up to those on the ground to enter the tower or not. Still, I'll stick with Marit as my main suspect. Liesbeth and Frits would have to be my secondary suspects, because in the speedboat game they both chose the letter 'M' for mole. :)

A Joker is a 100% guarantee, just knowing the question means you still have to get it right. All it did was ensure that Tim's odds of staying would be better than his own.Also, I'm probably reading way too far into this, but when it was down to Tim/Marit/Frits during the Joker or Envelope challenge, they somehow knew the envelope contained money even though the only person to take an envelope at that point (William) hid the fact it had money.I was hoping the lady in red would play a part in the challenge. Before it was explained I was assuming the group of 2 would have to pick her out of a crowd or something. The fact that she was completely irrelevant makes her even better though.I don't think Marit is the mole just because she took the money when she would have had a perfect excuse to take the Jokers instead. It would have been a very easy sabotage with basically no suspicion/repercussions. If anything it puts suspicion on Tim/Frits because they would have known when they made the deal in episode 1 that she would be forced to give up money.Also, Tim said something in the beginning of the episode along the lines of "We all know what's going on, so it's going to come down to memory now." Why would he think they all know who the Mole is? That's just confusing. If I had to pick a mole at this point, logic says Tim but my gut still says Liesbeth.
Well the joker-trade was with William. The offering the joker was to Tim because they had made a deal, according to Frits anyway. I agree with you that the trade-off wasn't benefitial to Frits. I don't know his reasons for it but if I can hazard a guess, I would say they are all trying to mislead eachother by re-enacting last year's Mole Patrick. In years before contestants have always been eager to earn jokers (for obvious reasons) so now people being seemingly careless or ambivalent about it arouses suspicion (see William's confession about it). I would have to say the Mole would be an idiot to pull that and so obviously if he is truly the Mole because it would arise immediate suspicion, now. But that's just my view on it. ;-) ' The fact that the envelope contained money was what William said out loud. Liesbeth came to check it and it was at that point that William shielded off his extra information. But he was always open about the money thing so there was a reasonable assumption that future envelopes may contain money as well for everyone taking it after him. As for Marit I initially agreed with your assessment but thinking about it some more I think there is a reasonable explanation in the sense that Tim and Frits may be suspicious of her giving jokers to her competitors. Perhaps this may be an indication of knowledge prior by either Tim or Frits (but that would also a bit stupid because at the very least Marit would then be suspicious of them for having made this deal with her in the first place). Since there are always jokers in play as of epi 1, 2 or 3 nowadays it would be a logical assumption (the same way William assumed that there may be jokers too because exemptions had been given out as well). So thinking there might be jokers she might earn would be a logical assumption too and if they wanted to trade anything for giving away the third exemption and keeping a benefit from it, this would be understandable contestant behavior (everyone seems to want to maximize their benefits this season ;-) - At any rate I agree it can be explained both as Mole-ish but definitely as contestant as well. I am not ready to dismiss Marit just yet on the basis of there potentially being an explanation plus negotiations are coming up. So we'll see what this twist brings.
