Horace is executed in a messy episode where the hosts debate spoilers and curses.
Michael Armstrong, Logan Saunders, and David Bindley recap the third episode of Wie is de Mol 2011. They open by noting the episode's messiness and Horace's elimination, which was spoiled to Logan due to Horace's recurring third-episode curse. The episode covers challenges in El Salvador, starting with a recap of Hannah's prior execution and Peter Yan's hosting. The first challenge involves two groups: one paints a Salvadorian mural, and the other creates a pixelated portrait of Dutch icons like Queen Beatrix. A twist reveals the mural team must identify each other's work instead of fooling an expert, earning €1,000. The hosts analyze character edits, noting Art, Sundos, Anna, and Patrick get most confessionals, while Miriana and Pepijn are overlooked. The second challenge requires candidates to perform for 200 spectators in a town square to earn money. Acts include Pepijn and Patrick clowning, Horace in drag, and Anna and Yan performing Romeo and Juliet. The hosts describe Yan being mobbed by schoolgirls like Beatlemania, with the group earning €1,140. A hotel escape challenge follows, where candidates are locked in rooms with TVs and must communicate in a chain to find keys and escape, with Horace controlling luggage. The group fails, and Horace must divide luggage, leading to arguments and a €2,000 penalty to buy bags back. The execution test occurs at a Mayan site, with Horace eliminated for being slow and wrong. The hosts discuss suspicions, with Logan ranking Anna, Miriana, Karen, Pepijn, and Patrick as top mole candidates. They end by teasing next week's episode in Nicaragua.
