During Episode 8, we saw that Rafael and his wife have stolen the gold from Professor and team. The Professor has completely gone berserk after learning that and now wants revenge. So, he goes after them. In the penultimate episode, Professor contacts Lisbon and Palermo in order to give them the bad news. As soon as he tells them, Palermo says that if they got there when every piece of gold was in the trucks, then the team had a mole. A few moments later, it is revealed that it was Berlin (Pedro Alonso) who actually told everything to his ex-wife, who is now Rafael’s partner. Berlin must have told the plan to her because he was in love with her and that’s how Rafael robbed the gold.
