Mole Sabotage
On The Line: As one of the players that wanted to "hang out," Frederique used her accent and pretended to have slight difficulty with English. She stalled the strong players with her poor directions. When it came to getting the water into the bigger bucket, she struggled pouring, wasting time and costing the group $10,000.
Underwater Charades: Despite the group finding four out of the five coffins, Frederique stalled on the final charade. The money was in the coffin that was not found, keeping $25,000 out of the pot. Suspicion was eased on her when Erik knew the last coffin was empty, but still said to open it.
Offshore Account: Frederique was supposed to be the player who looks good on the beach and be given the exemption offer. Since Erik was the one on the beach, Frederique used the chaos of the game to loosen some knots on the raft. Despite this, Erik gave back the exemption, earning $60,000 for the pot.
Looky Looky Hot Pepper: At this time, Frederique figured the players suspected Michael as the Mole. When it came time to eat the $25,000 peppers, she refused to, keeping that money out of the pot. Despite this, no one chose her as the Mole on the next quiz.
Hulapalooza: Frederique knew Kathy was not an athletic person and would not be able to get on the surfboard, so she tried her hardest in this game. Kathy was unsuccessful in surfing for five seconds, which kept the $20,000 out of the pot and shifted suspicions to Kathy.
Exemption Game: Frederique knew where Erik was playing the game. So she ran ahead of the others and slowed down to waste time. Her goal was to arrive just after Erik completed the game. She found Erik a minute after he completed the memory game.
It Takes a Thief: At this point, Frederique figured the other two players were on to her, so she decided not to try to sabotage the game. The other two players were either trying to convince the other that he/she was the Mole, or as she states, "...it was just a sad moment for both.". They did win the game, but Frederique put doubt in their minds before the final execution.
In all, Frederique cost the group $80,000. No one picked her on the quiz until the final quiz, making her the stealthiest mole to date among the U.S. series.

“For like a mole I journey in the dark,
A-travelling along the underground”
