Original subtitles

(tense music)

- 22 players arrived at this Scottish castle

to play the game of a lifetime

and to hopefully win up to £120,000.

But hidden amongst them are the Traitors,

who will secretly murder their fellow players at night.

It's up to the others, the Faithful,

to work out who the Traitors are...

- It's exhausting.

- [Host] And banish them from the game.

- Will you let me speak?

- [Host] Because if a Traitor remains undetected...

- I'm not a traitor, I swear on everything.

- They take all the money.

Previously.

Some players fell early.

I'm afraid it's goodbye.

- No.

- [Host] While some were lying

before the game even started.

- My boyfriend Tom is also in this game.

We're keeping that to ourselves.

- [Host] Three Traitors were chosen.

- Just feel like it's my game now.

- Get up there and get tidying, right?

- [Host] The players started building the prize pot...

- Everyone who's old is on our team.

- [Host] And suspicions started flying.

- Nicky didn't raise her glass.

- [Contestant] Theo's not genuine.

- [Host] As the traitors prepared to murder

their first victim.

- [Amanda] Aisha,

Theo,

or Andrea.

- So how you gonna feel about committing that first murder?

- Absolutely fine.

- This is "The Traitors."

* I'm swimming with the sharks *

* Breaking through the glass *

- We've committed our first murder,

and I think we've made the right decision.

They're not gonna catch up with us.

- No, not at all.

- There's just so much power in our hands, isn't there?

- Yeah, there's so much power.

- And it feels so great.

- It does feel great.

- [Host] Last night,

the Traitors committed their first murder.

But which Faithful didn't make it through the night?

This morning, the surviving players

will make their way to breakfast.

But one Faithful won't arrive at the castle.

And currently, only the Traitors know who that is.

- Oh, it's just us.

- Okay, we're the first ones.

Oh my god.

Everyone's still on the board as well.

- [Maddy] Oh, yeah, that's a good sign.

- I'm literally shaking now.

- I can't believe it.

- Cheers. - We're still alive.

- Cheers, guys.

Day two. - Cheers to being alive.

- I could not have been more relieved.

The fact that we were in first

with no one else there was just lovely.

We got to sit down, fill our plates with pastries

and just watch the other people come in.

- [Aaron] Yes! - Yes!

- I was shaking so much.

Thank God.

At that point, all I was thinking of

was I'm so grateful I've lived another day.

I didn't think I was gonna get this nervous.

And then waiting in that breakfast room,

I'm anxious that my boyfriend Tom won't be there.

Tom and I decided it'll be best to hide our relationship.

It's hard, 'cause obviously, I want to make sure he's okay.

- [All] Come in.

(cheering)

- My boy!

- Yes!

I walked through the door like I was so happy.

I was just like, oh my God, made it past day one.

- You look amazing. - [Alex] Thank you.

- I remember feeling so happy to see Alex,

'cause I fancy her.

I was honestly the happiest guy.

(suspenseful music)

(cheering)

- [Alex] You made it!

- Just about.

- When I saw that silly pink hair,

I was like, oh, thank God.

- [Maddy] You all right? You sure?

- It's such rollercoaster.

- [Ivan] I'm really glad you're here.

- Walking into breakfast this morning,

I was just so anxious.

I'm thinking, well,

I was really bossy and I was just like,

what if people don't like that?

And you just start- - I know.

- The 120,000,

it would mean the world to me to win that money.

(cheering)

- It's amazing going down to breakfast as a Traitor,

because obviously I know who I've murdered.

So I'm just pretending that you're shocked

that you've come through the door.

Oh my God.

- [Hannah] I'm so pleased your here.

- [Wilfred] I'm so happy, man.

- Good morning. (cheering)

- Even though I knew John was coming back,

for some, reason I was just really happy,

even though I knew he was coming back.

It's like, a mad experience, innit?

- I came in with Amanda.

We obviously had to act and be like,

oh, so excited to be here.

- Well done, well done.

You've done so good. - Oh my God.

- Oh my God, you're shaking.

- I'm shaking,

I'm really shaking. - The adrenaline.

You're here. You are here.

- I just had to pretend that I was crapping it.

I had to go in shaking

and I had to go in proud to myself for being here

and that I got another night

without the Traitors murdering me.

- Right, so it's three that left.

It's Theo, Aisha, and Andrea.

- I would be devastated with any of them going.

- [Imran] No, no.

- I'm already shocked.

- So who do you think is gone?

- I don't know.

- I'm gonna be gutted regardless.

- [Contestant] Whoever goes, then you can kind of...

- Come in!

- Oh my God, who is it?

(cheering)

- Oh my god, it's going to be Theo and Aisha.

- Aisha, Theo.

- One of the two are going.

- So whoever walks the door next is the last.

(tense music)

- I didn't think it'd be down to these two,

but I think I say Theo.

- He did have a run in with Imran.

- Theo kind of went for Imran last night.

If Theo doesn't walk in, Imran took him out.

I'm gonna say that now.

You play as a faithful

and you sort of get yourself into Faithful ways.

I can't explain it.

You make, literally feel like one of them.

- It'll be weird without Aisha with us lot here,

you know what I mean?

- [Aaron] I'm not gonna lie, I actually love Aisha.

- Just jokes, innit?

- She's so funny.

- If he's gone, it's war.

- Hundred percent.

- Come in.

- I'm so nervous.

(cheering)

- [Contestant] Yes!

- I'm so glad.

- Aisha's gone.

- Someone's killed her.

- Oh god.

- Someone's murdered her.

- I'm more threatened by Aisha than Theo at this point.

- And Aisha, right,

I can tell she wanted to be a Traitor.

She'll do anything to find out who that is.

- She could be domineering in the game.

- And that'll break up the youth group.

- Cliques are so dangerous at this point and time.

- You need to break them up.

- I love the girl, though.

- [Amanda] Yeah.

- Dear Aisha,

by the order of the Traitors, you have been murdered.

Fucking snakes.

Absolute snakes, them Traitors.

Oh god!

Nobody wants to be the first person to go, do they?

So it's hard. It's rough.

- Oh my god.

- These Traitors can murder you just of a drop of a hat

without defending yourself or anything like that.

So for me, I was just glad and grateful

that I got another day.

I was in that room with amazing people.

I was glad.

- It was difficult 'cause the game is just beginning

and I think we were all on the same wavelength

that these big characters that people would gravitate to,

we had to start eliminating them.

So unfortunately, Aisha had to be the first to be murdered.

- You like Theo.

- I know, I can't believe it.

- But one had to go.

- It just makes you feel sad, doesn't it?

- [Fay] Yeah, it is sad.

- It's like a bitter sweet feeling, isn't it?

Don't get me wrong, Theo walking in, I was so happy.

But I was kind of a little bit gutted

'cause she was fun to be around.

- I don't think it was gonna be easy

to lose anyone at this point.

- She was so lovely.

- Good morning.

- Good morning. - Morning, everybody.

Hello.

Isn't this delightful?

- [All] Yes.

- [Host] Did you sleep well?

- [All] No.

- The first murder has taken place.

So would you repeat after me?

- [Contestant] Oh no.

- [Contestant] Oh my God.

- Bye-bye, Aisha.

- [All] Bye-bye, Aisha.

- [Contestant] Wow.

- But don't worry, 'cause you can get your own back,

because tonight, there'll be the first banishment.

And if you're lucky, you get out a Traitor.

- We need to get rid of them very quickly,

and I'm hoping that we can banish one tonight.

- We're gonna have another mission.

You can build up the prize fund.

I do hope you like music.

Does anyone like music?

- [All] Yes! (cheering)

- Then you'll do very well.

See you later. Enjoy your breakfast.

Bye, darlings.

- So that's it. First real murder.

- [Contestant] We're actually in this now,

we're in the game.

- There's traitors around this table.

And I can't call one of them.

- [Alex] That was so stressful.

Bro.

- [Matt] So, so, so happy you're here.

- [Alex] Same.

- Is it raining?

- A little bit, yeah. It's just super windy.

We gotta get this open.

- Brilliant. Great job, Tom.

Brilliant.

- [Ivan] How did you do that?

What's wrong with these?

- Aisha being murdered,

it is possible that the Traitors were doing that

because she fancies you, you thought she was all right.

Maybe they were trying to sort of see

if they could pin it on you a little bit.

- What, because I fancy her?

Aaron's fuming. He's like, I just thought she was pretty.

- We were just trying to find any connection.

- You don't know. It's a guessing game.

It literally is. It could be anyone.

- There's so many names coming out,

my mind is scrambled.

- So my plan in this game is to lie by telling the truth

90% of the time.

It's also referred to as the 90-10 strategy.

When I told the group

that I've obtained a PhD at the age of 22,

which, for the discipline, is the youngest in the world,

no, I'm smarter than that.

What I'm looking to do is translate

some of those academic principles

to determine whether if somebody's a Traitor.

But right now, it's tricky.

- [Wilfred] So how did you feel then, this morning?

- Yeah, gutted because she was a genuine person.

- Does anybody know anyone that didn't get on with her?

- I knew Aisha quite well.

- [Wilfred] 'Cause I think everyone got on with everyone.

- But she was a young lady

that was not afraid to say what she thinks.

That might have been a disadvantage.

I'm gonna be good at this game

because not a lot of people are aware that

I spent a lot of years working for homicide police.

If she hadn't been getting on with anybody

or she felt anything, she'd have talked to me.

- [Wilfred] I wish we knew.

- And I didn't get that opportunity.

- How would you have stopped the Traitors from killing?

You wouldn't have been able to do that.

- But I might have had some information.

I didn't get that.

That career really, really taught me

to look for things in people

that, potentially, other people don't see.

I'm very good at spotting people

when they're not telling the truth,

spotting things that don't add up,

and I'll be able to sniff 'em out.

It's still early days

for potentially whoever the Traitors are

to go in there and make a strategic action against her.

- [Fay] Unless she upset them.

- Yeah, it could just be personality.

- She was like a little social butterfly

going from group to group.

Maybe they thought we need to get rid of somebody like her

because- - That's what I'm like.

I'm trying to mirror the other guys, the Faithfuls,

and trying to be a Faithful.

I want to win, a hundred million percent.

This is a ridiculous amount of money.

I've never been abroad in my life.

I want to take my kids out

and show them what I was never able to see,

but experience that with them for the first time.

- Because remember, the Traitors,

they don't care who they murder.

- [Claire] No.

- [Fay] We want to banish the Traitors.

- This is why I've said

when I'm building my case against people,

I'm going in with hard evidence.

So then people can't me just like, mm.

And I'm not influencing anybody around here.

I'm doing it myself.

- Yeah, its too early. - This is what I think.

- Do you have kids?

- I do.

I have my son. He's 26 years old.

- Damn.

- [Contestant] Are you close with him?

- You know, I had my son very young.

Then the accident happened.

It's just hard losing your hand at 22

and you've got a four-year-old kid.

You're like, right, what do we do now? You know?

Nearly 23 years ago, I had a car crash on the motorway

and I lost my right hand.

- It's all about perseverance and that's just something-

- Do you know what?

I sit there, and when you've got someone staring up at you

thinking that they're reliant upon you, you're like,

as much as what I'm going through, I've just lost my hand,

you're like, shit, I can't crumble.

- Yeah. - And you're just like, okay,

well, I'm not gonna make life complicated for myself.

So I'm still with mom and dad.

- Do you think if you won the competition and that 120,000,

you would leave your parents' home

and you would maybe put that as a down payment

on something for yourself?

- I couldn't. No, I'd just get the hand.

If I was to win "Traitors,"

it would enable me to realize my dream

of having two working hands again.

You know, this is big. This is big stuff.

(tense music)

- [Contestant] There they are. It's mission time, everyone.

- Regardless of the fact that everybody

is gonna get murdered

or gonna be banished from the group,

when we collectively have a mission to do,

all the other elements go out of the window.

Let's get the task done, let's win the money.

- Okay. Welcome.

This is your second mission.

If you get this perfect,

you'll add £10,000 to the prize fund.

(cheering)

Remember, there are Traitors, there are Faithful,

but you work as a team.

Okay, please separate into two groups.

Seven in one, 12 in the other.

- Should we just go down the middle somewhere?

- [Contestant] We don't know what's gonna happen,

so we might as well just split down.

- Okay. Have you done it?

Okay, so for my group of seven,

you are gonna go to the castle chapel

where you will be greeted by some church bells

and five pieces of sheet music.

You are gonna have to play five different songs.

- Oh.

- It's fine.

- Feel comfortable.

- Now, you 12 are going to have to listen to those songs

and work out what they are.

- Okay.

- Once you've identified the songs,

you have to find the matching music box.

You will open the music box.

Inside will be a figurine of an object.

That object is somewhere in the castle.

Bring it to me.

For every correct answer,

you all get £2000 added to the pot.

Five songs. If you do it correctly, £10,000.

Are we clear?

- [All] Yes!

- You can do it. Enormous luck.

You guys go to the chapel.

You, follow me. Come on.

- [Contestant] Good luck, guys!

- All the way through this,

we're gonna be working as a team.

But if a Traitor walks away with the money,

I think I'm gonna spend the rest of my life

just being a little bit sick in my mouth.

(dramatic music)

- [Contestant] Has anyone done bell ringing before?

- [Contestant] No.

- [Contestant] I mean, a little bit.

- [Contestant] Then you should start, you should go first.

- [Contestant] Okay.

- [Contestant] Ivan's really good at music as well.

And so is Alex.

Alex and Maddy as well.

- [Contestant] We sent the right people.

- [Contestant] We definitely did.

- I think every time you go into a mission,

there is only one way to play it,

to try to win the mission

and to win as much money as possible.

Everybody is working together.

Traitors, Faithful, whatever.

- Right, ready?

- [Contestant] Yes. Come on.

- And one,

four,

four,

four,

six,

five.

(church bells ringing)

- Four.

It's "Auld Lang Syne."

- [Contestant] National anthem, Great Britain.

National anthem!

National anthem, Great Britain!

- We had to distinguish what song it was,

run to these music boxes,

and basically figure out which box is matched up

with the music that was played from the church.

- [Host] Players, less than three minutes remaining

for this round.

- Nope.

- Do you know the song?

- [Contestant] That's not the national-

- No, no, no it's not that.

I know what that is, I know what that is.

- Come on. - Okay, ready?

One,

four,

four,

four.

- Is that what I played?

- I had to go back and listen to it again,

and then I was like,

da da da da da da da da.

Da da da da.

"Auld Lang Syne."

Everybody knows that.

Is that "Auld Lang Syne?"

"Auld Lang Syne!" "Auld Lang Syne!"

- You have one minute, 50 seconds.

Find it!

Sorry to shout.

- "Auld Lang Syne, Auld Lang Syne."

There it is.

There was then a little ornament in the box,

and then you had to find the larger version

of that hidden around the castle.

- [Meryl] An owl.

- [All] An owl!

- Oh my god, I've never sprinted so fast in my life

down a corridor in a castle.

- One minute, 15 seconds.

- Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

- [Contestant] Let's go!

- That is the correct answer.

(cheering)

Very well done. £2000 added to the pot.

(cheering)

- [All] Yes!

- [Contestant] I was getting stressed.

Well done. Well done, Ivan.

- We did really well on our side, I think.

We got the first one right and fast,

and it made for a pretty nice concert.

Okay, next song.

Six,

two,

three.

(church bells ringing)

- It's supposed to be "Swan Lake,"

but it doesn't sound like "Swan Lake."

- I have not got any music sense whatsoever,

so I was hopeless at that challenge.

(upbeat music)

- [Contestant] You listen again, listen again.

- [Alyssa] You want to take right? I'll go left.

- It's a ballerina!

- He was like, "Ballerina!"

So we're looking for a ballerina everywhere.

Could not find a ballerina.

- Andrea.

Shoes, shoes.

I'm not helping them.

- Dance shoes, dance shoes.

- [Contestant] Dance shoes, dance shoes! Got them!

- Yes! (cheering)

You have another 2000.

(cheering)

- And then it's back outside again,

and you listen and you listen.

- Seven,

eight,

eight,

five,

four,

four,

five.

(church bells ringing)

- I know the song.

- It's "Ode to Joy."

- It was absolute mayhem.

And it wasn't even about the money in the end.

I think we all just liked to go run around.

- That's it! That's it! THat's it!

A hat with a feather on it.

- [Contestant] It's a hat with a feather!

- [Meryl] Wait, is that a feather?

- You have smashed that.

(cheering)

- Six grand made.

- [All] Yes!

- As soon as we knew what it was, we smashed it, I think.

And we were going for gold at this point.

- Ready?

- Eight, six, eight, seven,

five, six, four, four, four.

- Should we just do it? Should we just run through?

'Cause we can't remember that.

- All right, okay.

- Eight,

six,

eight,

seven.

(church bells ringing)

Three, three, three,

two, two, two,

one, six, two, six,

one.

- [Contestant] Six.

- [Fay] One.

- This is a hard one.

- [Contestant] Twinkle, twinkle little-

- [Contestant] Oh my god. Yes, yes, yes.

- [Contestant] I know where it is!

I know where "Twinkle, Twinkle" is!

- I don't think it is.

- It's here, it's here, it's here, it's here, it's here.

Knight piece, knight piece.

- [Alyssa] Horse, horse, horse, horse.

- [Contestant] Guys, we got it!

- That is incorrect.

- [Contestant] It's not right, it's not right.

- Oh, I'm struggling with this one, boys.

- [Contestant] Do it again. - [Contestant] Slower.

- Even slower. Even slower.

- Eight, six.

- [Contestant] No, too fast.

- Can you just do it after we've done it? Yeah.

Fay did hers.

I don't think she was necessarily confident

beating out the rhythm like the other people were.

- Eight, six.

- [Contestant] You've got to say it out.

- Five, six.

- Fay's so worked up about it all.

I think she's quite an intense person,

but we just couldn't get the rhythm going.

- "Three Blind Mice?"

I think it might be "Three Blind Mice."

Has anyone heard "Three Blind Mice?"

- [Wilfred] Three blind mice!

- [Hannah] Three blind mice!

- [Wilfred] Three blind mice!

(tense music)

- Guys, half your time has gone.

- I think I know.

- Is it definitely "Three Blind Mice?"

- [Wilfred] No, it's not. I know what it is.

It's a peacock. We're looking for a peacock, I think.

I've just become a person running around like a mad man.

I was just running around screaming "peacock" at one time.

- Peacock!

Peacock, yes!

- That is incorrect.

- No!

And it wasn't even a peacock.

That's a rooster, bro.

- Okay, 10,

nine...

(tense music intensifies)

eight,

seven,

six...

- Much better.

- That is incorrect. I'm sorry, guys.

- [All] Aw.

- [Contestant] It's okay.

- [Contestant] That was a hard one.

- Guys, I'm so sorry. You didn't get that right.

It wasn't "Twinkle, Twinkle,"

it was "The Sugar Plum Fairy"

and you were looking for a hat.

- [Contestant] A hat.

- [Contestant] Oh, I found. Oh, god.

- This is the last round.

Enormous luck.

I want you to get this right.

Go and get ready so you don't miss a note.

- All right, last one, guys.

We got this.

Three, three,

five,

five,

eight.

- [Hannah] Matt, say it.

- [Matt] I don't know it. I'm just going.

- Five,

two,

three,

four,

two,

eight.

- So it's a lullaby, isn't it?

Da da da, da da da.

- There's a rocking horse in the bar!

In the bar! In the bar! In the bar! In the bar!

I have never screamed "rocking horse" so loudly in my life.

- [Wilfred] It's there!

- [Contestant] Go, go, go, go, go!

- It's the correct answer. (cheering)

- Oh my god.

- [Contestant] Have they done it already?

- [Alyssa] Find out, fine out.

- [Contestant] Have we got it?

- [Contestant] We got it!

- [Contestant] We got it!

- Four out of five items, we were on the money.

- Four correct items, that is £8,000.

(cheering)

(cheering)

- These missions, I think, are really nice moments

where it's kinda like that brief period of camaraderie

before we have to kind of make decisions

at the round table and before the Traitors do their work.

- [Ivan] That was really fantastic.

- [Alex] You inspired me, Ivan.

(tense music)

- I will leave you so you can celebrate,

and then I will see you at the round table

when the first person is going to be banished.

It's there that you will individually get to vote

who you currently think is a Traitor.

And the person with the most votes

will be banished from the game for good.

Good luck. I'll see you later.

- Ideally, at the round table,

I don't want anyone to mention my name

unless it's in defense.

Everybody's gonna be looking out for the Traitors,

and this is me.

They're gonna be looking out for me.

- I'm terrified to write someone's name down

because I'm like, I could be putting up a Faithful

and throwing a Faithful under the bus potentially.

- Or like, if I vote for one.

- [Contestant] I know what you mean.

- [Theo] You put a target on yourself, almost.

- Yeah.

- But I'm looking forward to actually

putting my point across now.

The Traitors get to murder whoever they want,

but we can actually sit around that table

and state the facts.

The first round table, it's mixed emotions,

but I know that I'm gonna lead with my head

and not my heart.

- So there was a specific person

that got outed by Theo yesterday.

- Go on then.

- Imran.

I wanted to plant seeds.

I wanted people to think, oh my god,

they act like a Traitor, so they must be a Traitor.

I just can't chance having my name come up.

- I feel like there's a lot of people

that are gonna put that name on paper tonight,

and I'll be one of them.

- [Contestant] For Imran? - [Contestant] Imran?

- Yeah.

- 'Cause the signs are there

and I've gotta go from the only evidence we have.

- I'll be honest with you,

I'm kind of sharing heads with you.

I'm gonna probably go with Imran.

- Banish each other.

As long as long as they don't turn and it says Will,

that is it.

- Another red flag from me, in a sense, is Nicky.

I did feel like she's quite closed off and stuff

and I felt like that was probably one of the few people

that I haven't really connected with.

- This morning when she came in,

and I watched her very carefully.

- [Wilfred] And she was crying

when she came in this morning.

- Yeah, but that doesn't-

- No, no, no.

That could be a sign of someone being a Traitor.

Amanda, I think, is probably one of the purest people

I've ever met.

And if she was given the role of Traitor,

I think she would literally come in the next morning

and I think your emotions would, you would see it.

- I don't think I could go in the breakfast room.

I thought yes, yeah, I wouldn't be able to do it.

- I think the Traitors are Nicky and Fay.

It might not be, but that's my gut instincts.

- Yeah.

- There's names being mentioned and thrown around.

None of us know what's gonna happen, how it's gonna go.

Everybody's very on edge.

- [Wilfred] It's intense, innit?

- So intense.

- Bit too intense.

- There's three people

and there's one person no one else has named yet

and I'm not gonna say it,

but the other two people thought from the beginning.

Fay and Imran.

That's the two people I thought straight away.

I'm not sure what everyone else is saying.

I still think it's Imran.

Fay, I'm a bit 50/50 with.

And I still think it's John as well.

- I've definitely considered both of them,

especially because Imran's been really quiet.

It's so early

and I do feel like I'm throwing stones in the dark.

So right now, I don't feel confident voting a person out.

And who do you think then?

- Imran and Fay are my two.

Here he is.

- Man, it's getting intense in there.

- Everyone's talking about everything, it's craziness.

- [Imran] I'll swear down.

- Any minute now,

our players are about to meet at the round table

for the first banishing.

They will debate, they will discuss.

The question is, can the Traitors go undetected,

and will they lead their players rather brilliantly

to banish a Faithful by mistake?

I know this is bad of me, but I absolutely can't wait.

(tense music)

- You don't know.

I mean, you've got no idea who to vote for.

- Nobody wants to go first.

Please, not me first. Please.

- You need to be looking at who we think

the Traitors are gonna be.

- We need to get one of them out tonight.

- I feel really nervous going onto this round table.

Everybody's desperate to find a Traitor and it's so intense.

- I still genuinely don't have a clue

and I don't want to be the guy to send someone home.

- This is "The Traitors," and we have to get rid of them.

- Good evening, players.

What a day you've had.

Today, you made £8,000

and your total in the prize fund is £23,000.

Now, I might have mentioned this,

the title of the show also might give it away.

There are Traitors in your midst,

and now is your chance to kick them out.

You will each get one vote

for the person you would like to banish.

The person who receives the most votes

will be banished immediately.

So who are the Traitors?

Have you worked it out?

Do you have an idea?

It's up to you to dissect,

to maybe accuse, and to possibly defend.

What have you learned about each other

since you've arrived here?

It feels like a discussion needs to happen.

So, who would like to begin?

- [Contestant] Does anybody feel really confident?

- No.

Nope, absolutely not.

- I'm fairly confident.

I think that the person that it is

does not want it to be them.

And I think they've struggled,

which makes this a lot harder,

because they've been given the poisoned chalice.

- For me, there's a couple of people,

and one's my head and one's my heart.

- I feel the same. I've got two people in mind.

The characters have changed

since I first met them and observed them.

- I have to say, I agree with you there, Amanda,

in terms of there were two that changed

post this room last time.

- It's been very difficult to detect

any of the other Traitors.

But the only person that I've seen a huge change in

is you, Nicky.

- They think I'm the Traitor?

So how have I changed from the very beginning?

I'd like to know. - It's not just me saying it.

Other people.

I mean, I'm sure there's other people that want to say.

- I think there's going with gut feeling

and then there's going with evidence,

and I think this is what we're all struggling with.

However, when it comes to gut feeling,

I think this is something that takes time.

We haven't had the time.

Therefore, all we can do is go off evidence.

And Nicky, I love you to death and I really respect you,

I adore you.

Just the one thing is that when we all raised our glass

to the Faithful the other day, you didn't raise your glass,

and that's the only thing.

- Do you know why? Because it's to the right.

It's to the right of me.

It's not natural for me to do that.

- I obviously know she's not guilty,

but I have to accuse her, and that's the name of the game.

- Can I just say something?

Yesterday in that mission, you thrived, you wanted to fight.

I haven't seen you want to fight here.

- Thing is, I do find that when you're sat at the table

and everyone's trying to talk,

everyone's talking at the same time, so I just back off.

And that, I feel, has transpired into me.

Oh, hang on, you've been suspicious of me

'cause you see that as a change in my personality.

There's lots of big personalities here.

So if I started trying to shout out and go.

- But you're also a very big personality.

- Yeah, you are.

- [John] You don't sit back.

- You've asked me for my opinion,

you've all given yours, so let me say my piece now.

You're wrong.

But you know, you'll find that out if and when I go.

Where is this change?

What happened?

Nobody elaborated on what the change was,

and I just think it was a bit of a cop out, to be honest.

They all just jumped on the bandwagon.

- Genuinely, I just do not believe that it's Nicky,

a hundred percent.

That's just me.

So I'm gonna be honest.

I do just think it is Imran

mainly because of body language,

couple things that have just been said,

couple conversations.

Maybe it was just your nerves.

But equally, these were things kind of lined up for me,

so that's why, that's there I kind of where I am with it.

- Theo was very direct with Imran.

Said about something about being a traitor and looked at-

- He didn't even say something.

- I just looked.

- The way you responded was really,

it was really uncomfortable, and it was like,

it was almost like, oh my god, they know.

- I don't really remember that.

But I think us young folk

don't make firm judgments without evidence.

- What do you mean young people don't make judgments?

Everyone's gotta write their name down on a card right now.

Are you just doing that randomly?

Because that seems more unfair than making judgements.

- [Contestant] Well, I think we'll see

in which name he puts on there, won't we?

- That doesn't make any sense to me.

- [Contestant] What are you thinking?

- Let him respond. - Can I respond?

So I always like to give evidence

behind a judgment that I make.

I feel like a certain people have changed.

Personally, I haven't interacted too much with Nicky.

I was thinking more of Fay.

Fay is very critical.

She's always talking about other people as well.

That's just something I've heard.

- That's just interesting now

that your name's come to the flow and Nicky.

- And your name came to the flow for me at one point.

- You do. You're giving intense looks.

I think we've all had them.

- I've also observed Fay sewing seeds

and commenting and saying things.

So my view is that you would only mention

these other people's names in order to manipulate them.

And that's just how I see it.

- That's interesting. Very interesting.

- But I'm telling you now, I know I'm a Faithful.

(tense music)

- Okay, it is now time to vote.

Please write down the name of the person

you would like to banish.

- You have to remember

that you don't really know these people.

The only way I can identify someone as being a Traitor

is if they're offish or if they're recluse.

- Didn't know what to do, didn't know who to vote for.

- This is making me very anxious to put someone's name down

and potentially throw someone under the bus

who is just a Faithful like me.

- Okay, your votes have been locked

and it's time to find out

who will be the first to be banished from the castle.

Andrea, you're gonna go first.

Who do you believe is a Traitor?

Please reveal who you would like to go and why.

- It's not like to go.

I really think that's the wrong word.

I don't want anyone to go

and I really don't want Nicky to go.

But my reasoning was looking for someone

who could take the burden.

- Alex, who are you going to banish, and why?

- I felt coming in here,

I hadn't seen enough of everyone to really make a judgment.

But from what I've just seen at this table,

seeing accusations being made

and how people defended themselves,

I think that gave me the answer I needed.

I think if you really were a Faithful,

I think you would've defended yourself

a lot more convincingly.

And I'm really sorry, but I voted for you, Nicky.

- Aaron.

- I just wanted to be honest to myself

and who I genuinely thought it was.

So I've gone with Imran.

- So that's two votes for Nicky, one for Imran.

Amanda, who are you banishing, and why?

- I'm going for Nicky too.

You haven't behaved

like, I suppose, I and a lot of us have

instantly behaved.

And that might be you.

I'm so sorry.

- That's fine.

- Nicky, who are you banishing, and why?

- I'm just sticking with what I first said,

and that was Fay.

- Thank you.

So that's three votes for Nicky,

one for Imran, and one for Fay.

Imran, who do you think is a traitor, and why?

- So out of everybody, I think the person whose energy's

changed the most since the beginning.

For that, I put Nicky.

Sorry.

- [Nicky] No, don't be sorry.

- Meryl, who have you voted for?

- I'm really sorry, Nicky.

- Will?

- I voted for Nicky.

- Hannah?

- Nicky, if you're Faithful,

I don't know why you've played it this way,

I really, really don't.

- Rayan?

- With regrets, Nicky, I put your name down.

- Matt?

- Nicky, I think you're a Traitor.

- Nicky.

- Nicky.

- It honestly is absolutely nothing personal at all.

- I've also voted for Nicki.

- I've wrote down Nicky.

- I'm sorry.

- Nicky, and it's unbelievably hard to do this.

- And for the final vote, John, please.

- Well, it's no shock

it's exactly the same as everybody else's.

It's not personal. It's Nicky.

- Nicky, please come up here and join me.

(slow sad music)

Nicky, you have been banished.

Before you leave the castle,

it's time to reveal if you're a Traitor or a Faithful.

- I'd just like to say, you know what?

It's a hard decision to make

and it's not been very pleasant sat here.

However...

you're all wrong. I'm a Faithful.

- Oh no.

- Jesus.

- Nicky, they got it so wrong.

Thank you so much.

You now can leave the castle.

So players, you banished an innocent Faithful.

Maybe you'll get a Traitor next time.

I'd say sleep well,

but one of you will be murdered tonight.

I'll see the rest of you at breakfast.

- How did we all get it so wrong?

(sad music)

- I just thought it was Imran.

Everyone else just jumped on the bandwagon.

And then look at them all, they all just like idiots now.

And I love them all to bits, but they made a mistake.

- And I feel so relieved.

There's not really any eyes on me at the moment.

I could just relax again and have another day.

- I was looking at, I stood there and I was like,

I need you to be a Traitor, because I was convinced.

- [Contestant] I was convinced.

- And I looked at her when I walked in and I went, yeah.

- I would've put my house on it.

- Me too.

I swore on my life it was her, a hundred percent.

- And we all were.

- When she stood on that circle and went, "I'm a Faithful,"

I felt like I'd been hit by a bus.

I was like, how can so many people get it so wrong?

- I just think we need to channel this upset to actually.

I'm just angry now, do you know what I mean?

I'm mad at myself.

- The fact that they get to meet again tonight.

- The whole atmosphere at the round table is so difficult.

As a Faithful or as a Traitor,

but especially as a Traitor,

it is so difficult and it is just so,

so draining emotionally.

And I just, I welled up and then I was trying not to cry

'cause I was like, I'm gonna be incriminating myself.

People think I'm looking guilty.

I'm just using this to spur me on now,

because I'm like, they're just watching that.

- And laughing in their little capes thinking,

nobody's suspecting us.

- I feel awful in the sense that I had to use genuine tears

and say that about the Traitors, because I was purely lying.

But they were genuine tears for Nicky

because I did feel so much guilt.

But it's a game.

I have to do what I have to do as a Traitor.

This is just all really tough.

- Everyone was going in on Nicky, right?

And I was like, anything I have right now,

'cause I was literally gonna just change the subject.

But everyone just kept going in.

And I thought, I'm not gonna add to this

because I've got nothing to say about Nicky.

I couldn't lie to myself.

I couldn't face looking at Nicki

and making up some rubbish excuse of why I think it's her

when I don't think it's her.

- [John] I can't believe that.

- No.

- [John] How did we get that wrong?

- Yeah, it's gutting.

At least I was honest and I didn't stitch someone up

when I didn't think it was true.

When everyone actually got in that room, though, finally,

I know a lot of other people were saying different names,

but as soon as people were in there pointing fingers,

everyone just jumped on the bandwagon.

'Cause there is no way that 95% of people

thought Nicky straight away.

And you know that as well, and there's other people as well.

They said to me different names,

but in the last second, they've changed it.

- I knew walking in that I wanted to vote Imran,

and then I remember just getting swayed and voted for Nicky.

I need to make sure now that I think a little bit more

before I write someone's name down.

- How did you feel when people said your name, though?

- I felt like crap.

And that's what I tried to say.

I was like, I like to have evidence,

which I guess is very hard to have in this thing,

before I make a firm judgment.

- Yeah, we need to make a call.

- Evidently, the call I made today sucked.

People who are mentioning,

oh, you've said this sentence, or you said that word,

or have you offended me by doing this,

it's all very, very petty things,

and none of those things actually prove or suggest

that I'm a Traitor.

It's herd mentality.

If I go tomorrow, if I go tonight, whatever.

- It is good to hear you vocalize passionately.

- I'm gonna keep to myself, I'm gonna keep doing my stuff,

I'm gonna keep smashing the missions.

We're gonna keep putting in that prize pot,

and let's have a good time.

- I don't if it's just his personality,

but there's someone not right and I don't like it.

(clock ticking)

(bell chiming)

- [Wilfred] Love you. - [John] Love you too.

- [Host] When the castle clock strikes,

that can mean only one thing,

everyone must leave the castle...

- [Claire] See you in the morning.

- Yeah, see you in the morning.

- I love you lots.

- [Host] As the murdering hour is upon them.

- [Rayan] Thank you for being a good friend.

- And Alex, if I don't see you tomorrow,

honestly, really wish we got to know you.

We had this tiny moment where we're together for about

10 seconds max.

Stay here, stay here.

- I'm worried that that might be the last moment

we see each other,

and I didn't want that to be the end of our time

in the game.

- With everyone now departed,

the Traitors are a free to return to the castle.

They've survived their first banishment.

and they're about to stack the odds even more in their favor

as they're deciding now,

which Faithful will be dead by dawn.

- When the gongs go off,

I know that I'm gonna have to murder one of them.

Now it's definitely getting harder,

because I've built relationships with these people

and I don't want to see any of them go.

But at the same time,

that's the only way that I can win this.

- Being a Traitor, it is hard, you know.

It's harder than what you think.

- I do feel guilty,

but it's for my family and to change my life.

- What a night.

- What a day. The whole day.

We've played it really well, though.

- [Alyssa] I'm exhausted.

- I know. Emotionally, physically, everything.

- I'm not gonna lie, seeing Nicky go was difficult.

- I found the round table much more difficult than this.

Because this is easy.

They don't notice.

It's almost like a firing squad against you

in that round table.

- It really is.

- The feelings I feel when I get upset are genuine there.

- I cried, I literally cried.

I had to blatantly turn it.

To be honest, it was difficult to do.

I did feel bad, but I think I sold it quite well.

- Yeah, you did. - Yeah, you did.

Everyone did.

What we've gotta do,

I really believe that we have to leave the targets

that everybody are looking at still in.

'Cause they'll get rid of them anyway.

If we get rid of Fay or Imran,

then we're basically cutting our life short.

It needs to be someone that either

Imran or Fay have mentioned to someone at some point,

but not an obvious one for them to go,

oh, they wouldn't get rid of that person.

That's too obvious.

- It's hard to be subtle about this.

- Unless they're a serious threat to us.

- Who? Who?

- [Amanda] Fay.

She's dropping everyone's name.

She's planted seeds, isn't she? To save her own skin.

- Tom.

I think we can keep it a little longer,

but he is on my radar.

- Ivan.

- I like Ivan for the challenges, everything.

He's so talented.

- But I think people will believe

he's a Traitor at some point.

- But I think he can be useful.

- We need to think of the long run here.

Therefore, we should probably keep him.

- Keep him in.

- We need to think really logical.

- Five steps ahead.

We need to think for the round table

to protect ourselves also.

- [Amanda] Yes, absolutely.

Right, so who's possible?

- Aaron, maybe.

Where there's a clique, there's numbers.

And you know, there's power in numbers.

- [Amanda] It'll shock them.

- It's a shock factor we're looking for.

- Okay, so Aaron's possible.

- Possible. - Aaron, possible. Claire.

I think for multiple reasons.

- Everybody gravitates towards her.

She's quite a mother figure in there.

She's quite clued on.

She's leading.

- Yeah, but after all of the things with her,

I can make them all,

I can plant so many seeds in that little group.

- Yeah, but I think it would disrupt

the whole dynamics of it.

- My whole strategy was befriend and betray, right?

But I think we should betray them when the right time is.

- Alex?

- I think she's a dark horse. - Yes.

- I think it's the quiet ones you need to watch out for.

Because I didn't really get to know her,

but how articulately she spoke at the round table,

I was like, this girl's intelligent.

- [Wilfred] She's a possible for me.

I think she's a possible.

- To me, if we get rid of one of them, that's perfect.

- [Wilfred] Alex, Aaron, or Claire.

(tense music)

I'm agreed, yeah.

- I think it'll work out best.

For every single one of us, there's as a benefit.

- For us to be powerful and us to stay here,

this decision needs to happen.

- Better to give them confusion than a strategy to follow.

- Fellow Traitors,

we are killing it.

- [Host] Next time on "The Traitors."

- No one's good at this game,

'cause no one's found a single Traitor.

- This is really starting to wind me.

- Let me finish.

- I think that's showing that Wilfred's a Traitor.

- Get them before they get you.

- I fucked up.

(tense music)
