13. Who was the suspected "mole" in the episode titled "Spiderweb"?
From Quiz The Amazing Adventures of "Scarecrow and Mrs. King
Answer:
Amanda
Someone planted evidence pointed to Amanda being a Czecholoslovakian spy. Amanda showed up by accident with her date, Bryce Topping, who's a lawyer, at a restaurant where Lee, Francine, and Billy were. A defector was shot down in the restaurant where the 4 of them were there, which was an alarming coincidence. The next day, Amanda said "I guess it's the code words that make it seem something like a game. You know there's someone at this Agency who just sits around and makes up these code words.", and mentioned the word "Spiderweb", the case name of the event that happened the night before when the man was shot. "Amanda isn't even a trainee in the strict sense of the word" said Lee, which means she was never given a full-out security check. There was a big blank in her record from November 1982 to mid-January 1983. There was a $10,000 deposit to her account in February 1983 (there was an electrical fire in the kitchen and the money was from the insurance company). When the Agency figured out that Margaret Brock, the Agency secretary, was the mole, Amanda was let off the hook and apologized too. At the end of the episode, Amanda reminded them that there was still $50,000 in her account that was deposited when she was being framed. "If it was American money, well I'd give it right back. We certainly wouldn't want to give the Russians all that money, would we?"- Amanda
