The couple was unmasked in the recent episode, with J’Something being the only detective to guess correctly. The rest of the detectives were locked in on Gigi and Reason, with Zee Nxumalo guessing Pabi Cooper and Focalistic.

With the sheep being unmasked, this leaves only four contestants remaining: Gogga, Chopsticks, Mosquito, and Spotty. Many fans of the show are rooting for Mosquito in the finals.
