September 7, 2015: And the winner is…!

Ladies and gentleman, we have a winner!  A little over a week ago, I offered fans a chance to win a signed, annotated script of Episode 13.  All you had to do? Guess Answer the following questions:

In the season finale, who makes known their intention to go their own way?
Who wiped the crew’s memories?
Who should the crew fear in the season finale?
Which crew member will NOT survive the shocking season one finale?

The answers:

FOUR
FIVE
SIX
They all survive.

As reader Nicola Prigg pointed out in this blog’s comment section, the chances of guessing correctly were 1 in 4096 or 0.0244%  – but your odds improved dramatically if you were able to make some educated guesses (i.e. All clues pointed to FIVE being the author of the mind wipe program; The only crew member with a reason to leave this ship is FOUR as he has a throne to recover; And come on, did you really think we’d kill someone off in the finale?  Well…maybe.).

In the end, the prize goes to ceresis64:

Congratulations!  I’ve sent you an email for your mailing address.  And I’ve finished annotating that script!

As for the rest of you – don’t feel bad.  Even the cast had a helluva time trying to figure out the answers to these various questions – something I made all the more difficult for them by keeping the identity of “the mole” a secret until the very last scene on the very last day.

And, when the time came for the big reveal, I gathered them on the bridge, like the suspects in an Agatha Christie whodunit, and tortured them a little.  Check out the behind-the-scenes video (and pay extra close attention to Melissa’s reactions throughout!)…
