I don't understand all the hate for the missions. We've gotten some classic mole missions, with the latest episode (ep.4) being no exception.
The Midas Rush mission (with the gold bars) had the players decide whether to go for the money or the exemption, which is what some of the best mole games of the past have been known for! As a player, you have to decide whether to pack light in order to get the exemption or pack heavy in order to get more money. You have to see it being more than just a "carry bricks to the mountain" mission.
As for the exemption giveaway, this is the 3rd or 4th season they've done this task so it shouldn't come as a surprise to you. The personal belongings being sabotaged has also been done before in each of the civilian seasons (S1 with repacking and S2 with burning bags). I'm actually impressed with the missions so far because not only do most of them have that classic mole feel, but they're ones I've never seen before (and I've seen/read about a lot of international seasons).
