Original subtitles

The Faithful ones live all the time with a threat of being murdered.

The Traitors have to constantly lie to avoid being exposed.

How should one think as a Traitor? Can you tell when someone is lying?

A wise person once said:

"To become a really good liar, you must first be able to fool yourself."

Last time, it was Jocke Lundell who didn't see the light of day.

And now there are only 17 left.

During the mission, Marie chose not to take a shield...

-...which raised suspicions. -God!

Of course, you take a shield. You want to sleep safely. That's just how it is.

The Traitors made a plan to get Shervin out.

-Let him be voted out. -But the Faithful ones aimed for Marie.

We've talked it over, and will vote for Marie S.

But a conflict between Filip and Marianne created confusion.

I don't want that, Filip. Respect!

This led to the votes being split-

-and Marie barely made it through.

Instead, it was Shervin who was banished.

-I'm Faithful. -I knew it!

It's now 4-0 for the Traitors.

During the night, they gathered to plan yet another murder.

-Are we agreed? -Yes, we are.

Alright. Damn, I'm first. Okay.

Yeah...

I was the only one with a shield but didn't sleep very well anyway.

There were a lot of thoughts. I knew that Shervin wasn't a Traitor.

So for me, it was frustrating when people started voting for him.

The question is whether Marie is a Traitor or not. I need to find out.

Come in!

-Hello! -Good morning.

-How did you sleep? -I slept pretty well.

Because I've realized my place in this game.

I'm probably quite comfortable to keep around. So I slept well.

-Then you must have slept pretty well too. -Yeah, I slept well.

Yesterday was a pretty tough day in many ways.

I still slept okay last night and have nothing to lose now.

Now it's just all-in. It's not over until the fat lady sings.

There was only one vote that separated me and Shervin yesterday.

And today, people will suspect me. Basically.

That's true, actually.

The plan is to say that I'm the nice bait in this soup.

It's quite convenient to keep someone that people talk a lot about.

I get what you mean. If you're not a Traitor-

-then it's good to keep you around. That's very true.

What have your thoughts been since yesterday?

Honestly, I don't know. I have no idea.

I wonder if I've thought wrong. She's definitely good bait.

And it feels like she's too bad of a Traitor.

She's not a good Traitor, if she is one.

Come in!

Good morning. A round of applause!

-Is it just you guys here? -I thought you would manage.

-Where were you? -Did you sleep well?

No. Last night was the first night I felt:

"What did I do yesterday?" I was the only one to vote for Anna.

I vote for Anna.

This gives a lot of room for the Traitors to play.

They can use that. It felt like I was taking a chance...

-...and opened up for the Traitors. -I understand what you mean.

-Hello! -Good morning, good morning.

-There are so few of us. -I know.

Yesterday was a lot for me. The plan for today is to see...

I want to check in on Marie, because she's suspicious right now.

As I said before you came. I feel like bait.

It's convenient to keep me around. Suspicion was directed at me early on.

-Hello! -Good morning!

-How are we? -Good.

I'm glad to still be here, but feel very confused.

I think it's a bit difficult, because I was so wrong yesterday.

-Who started talking about Shervin yesterday? -I did. I was constantly on him.

I've really reflected, and am completely changing my strategy.

Right now, I don't trust anyone.

I'm starting over with my usual ability to read people.

That must be...?

-Kelda! -And Bosse!

-A double. Good morning. -Good morning, Bosse!

It's going really well. I see no suspicion against me.

It feels so damn good. Even better when the suspicions start to be directed-

-at my Traitor buddies. Especially Marianne and Marie S.

I feel like bait. I'm pretty comfortable to keep around.

My plan for the day is to take a step back and just observe.

-Good morning! -Hi, Dona!

It just sends shivers down my spine! I'm sitting on this side now.

-Ronny! -I got completely shaky.

It doesn't matter if you're first or last. And who should we see?

-And who won't we see? -Do you know who...?

-Thomas! -A misstep.

Hi! Good morning. I'm happy, still breathing-

-and getting to play. At the same time, I'm a bit irritated that-

-people don't see what I see. I can see who the Traitors are.

A few of us saw it early. But no one listens. It's tough.

Marianne isn't here. But she's not dead.

I swear she'll come. I'm sure about Marie and Marianne.

They've made too many mistakes and acted too strangely.

There are overreactions and underreactions. There's so much to grab onto here.

-Do you remember what I said? -Welcome in.

Hi! Who's here now then?

I'm not feeling great in the game after yesterday.

You face greater stresses than you can imagine.

Sorry. You can't really understand the situation until you're here.

I have a terrible time lying.

I have no problem lying because it's a fun game.

Some find it uncomfortable, but I think it's a game.

-Are there two left now? -No, three.

-Anna, Marie O, and Filip are missing. -Okay.

Some have lost it. They get angry and forget that it's a game.

If they take out Filip, they probably want us to look in a certain direction.

Filip!

I was really worried about the murder last night. But Marie and Marianne probably think:

"If we take out Filip, we'll be suspected." So they have to keep me around.

-Hi! -Welcome.

But I'm going to get revenge on Jocke and Shervin.

Revenge-Filip isn't fun. I'm very mischievous and angry.

-Who's left? -Anna and Marie.

-Both are enemies of Marie S. -Excuse me?

It's the most logical thing. Marie O and Anna have been on you the whole time.

You get defensive. I'm tired of your attitude.

I can't talk to you. We've had a pretty nice time here.

-Now let's see. -It's Marie.

-Am I last? -Anna, we're really happy to see you.

-Filip, you're alive! -Yes, but Marie O got voted out.

I believe in Marie, and that it confuses the group.

-And that's our best chance. -Is it that simple?

If we get rid of Filip, one of you will be out.

That was the best choice for me and Marianne.

-Are we in agreement? -Yes, we are in agreement.

It's Marie who won't be at the table tomorrow.

"Marie, you have been murdered by the Traitors."

I can take that as a compliment.

Because then what I've felt and thought must be right.

Right now, the Traitors are leading 5-0. They are at least three.

I think there are four. So the odds for us Faithful ones keep getting worse.

We're playing their game. Today they chose Marie, who got voted out.

-I think her last name is Olsson. -"Skåne-Marie," I thought.

I've made bad observations. I came this morning and thought:

"The one I'm going to target a bit now is Marie O."

Then, she was the one who didn't show up today.

Wait, let me take this home. We need to be more strategic.

Now we need to start seeing patterns. I'm not surprised at all.

They probably thought that choosing Marie O wouldn't be as obvious.

But the choice was at least as obvious as Filip, me, or Anna.

So we see you!

-Damn, my heart stopped! -Rest in peace, sister.

Another Faithful one has been murdered and lost.

But we leave that and move on to the next mission.

Today it's going to be about body and mind.

But before we get started, I want you to pick three-

-stress-resistant and clever ones.

The remaining group shouldn't be afraid to get a little hands-on.

-Anna is definitely in the thinker team. -Liam is body.

-Everyone is body, except for me. -Thomas is mind.

I suggest Thomas, Anna, and Marianne.

-Who have you chosen? -Thomas, Anna, and Marianne.

Okay. You will stay in the castle's library.

The large group will get the coordinates in the cars.

-Are you ready, and do you understand? -Yes.

-See you in a bit. Arri... -...vederci!

-I’ll have an 'old black.' -Come on, come on!

It would be fun to drive around the city. How far do you think we’ll go?

-I think we’re going to a forest. -Skeppsholmen would be fun.

I want to ask a straightforward question: Are you also going to target me today?

I’m going to do like yesterday. I feel really insecure-

-and will follow what’s said at the table.

Is Anna still on your radar?

The thing is... I’ve been keeping an eye on those who have been a bit cautious.

I’ve only been suspicious of...

In the so-called guy group, she is the one who...

She immediately allied herself with Filip.

She’s smart and realizes that it could be an advantage.

-You’re leaning towards Anna. -I’m going to vote for Anna today.

-What do you feel, Kelda? -Regardless of whether there are three or four...

...we have two main characters. Both are women.

-So there’s probably a man. -But who is the man?

I have a list. Marie S has been at the top of it.

She was the first many of us pointed out. Including me.

-Bosse, Thomas... -Thomas is good at talking.

Either he doesn’t care, or he’s so secure...

-Or he’s pulling the wool over our eyes. -If he’s a Traitor, then hats off to him.

-I hope she’s a Traitor. -Me too. Otherwise, I’ll start crying.

What if it’s wrong?

Marianne, Anna, and Thomas are currently at the castle.

More specifically, in the library.

And somewhere in there, there’s a treasure hidden worth 40,000 kronor.

The large group is a couple of kilometers away-

-at their starting point. There are three huge crosses there.

They are about to embark on a crusade to a special place.

And that place is here. Here lies the key to the treasure.

To unlock it, they must place the crosses in the right slots.

It’s all about the two groups needing to cooperate.

And only by solving a series of tricky riddles-

-can they access the treasure. And according to my calculations-

-the group in the library is about to receive a delivery...right now.

-Anna. -Oh, oh, oh...

-It’s about time. Keep that in mind. -Are you ready?

"I am the key you need to help your friends."

"On the wall above hangs Gago, my boss."

"On the table in front of me, you fight over breakfast."

"My Persian friends are of the utmost class."

"I can carry both the sofa and the furniture's legs."

"I am pushed down by feet, boots, and legs."

"Lift my fringe and run back to the chest of drawers."

"Get a move on right away. For the others, the wait for an answer is very long."

Is that a fringe, do you think?

The first clue felt pretty easy.

This is about the dining hall. I've seen that picture every morning.

"On the wall above hangs Gago, my boss."

-Does it have to be here in the room? -No, Gago is hanging up there.

-Should we go? -I think so.

It's fun with riddles. We have one of Sweden's best chess players.

-in our trio. Even though she is young, she is a super smart girl.

-There is Gago. -Then we are in the right place.

-"Persian" could mean a Persian rug. -Yes. We're walking on it.

So there must be something underneath where we walk. Here is the key!

-Good! -Run back.

Okay...

"Welcome to the place where everything begins."

"Whoever is smart will show themselves soon."

"The beams on the crosses are full of inscriptions."

"To unscrew the right one, instructions are needed."

"At the end of the road, you will find valuable answers."

"But only if the right signs are left."

"Right now, you can do nothing but wait."

"But hang in there. The comrades will soon send a message to your clearing."

-Should we go up and check the crosses? -Yes.

When I saw the crosses, I thought they would probably be carried somewhere.

Then there was something about the numbers that you were definitely supposed to figure out.

-They are Roman. -C is a hundred.

-And M is a thousand. -We need a plan for how we carry them.

We'll line up the three longest and the three shortest, and see what they give us.

-There we have a chest of drawers. -Here we have it.

-So yes. -Good!

"Congratulations, you are one step closer to the treasure."

"The letter with signs and directions will go to your employers in the forest."

"Use the electronic carrier pigeon on the castle's terrace."

"To get the pigeon to lift off, you need to shout: 'Fly, pigeon, fly!'"

-Okay, then we'll take it with us. -We're going out to the terrace.

Working with Thomas and Marianne felt really great. Is that the one?

-No, that's a drone. Yeah, yeah! -The drone is a pigeon.

We were three friends solving puzzles. And I love solving puzzles.

Fly, pigeon, fly!

-It works! It's flying. -Goodbye! Say hi to the friends.

-Look! A drone. -Now the instructions are coming.

"Message to the crusade. Unscrew the plates with M and C."

-"Follow the blue path. Bring all the crosses." -M and C. Blue path.

We have to carry these crosses. So you immediately think-

-that it's going to be a pretty challenging and heavy competition.

-Time's running out! Lift, lift! -It's going to get really heavy now.

-Blue path. -Calm down! It's downhill and muddy.

-All chances to sit down for a bit. -We've learned to take those.

-Then we'll have to wait until we get a little... -We can't do much yet.

-How are we going to communicate with them? -Shout.

I love the mental aspect, and I'm so glad that I didn't have to run in the woods.

-Come on! -It's not comfortable.

This cross was probably a bit heavier than you might think.

Depending on where you stand it gets heavier.

-Something is extra heavy now. -It's me...

-Now it's really heavy for me. -A new station up ahead!

-Then we'll stop here. -Yes.

-Down. -Come closer so everyone can see.

It's a padlock. Then A7-A2, B7-G7, and G7-B2.

Everything that was there, like H2 and G7, I didn't understand anything about.

Look... It's a phone. I quickly discovered a black bag.

Inside, it was a mobile phone. If you opened it, you saw a number for the castle.

-It says "the castle". I'm calling. -Go ahead. Put it on speaker.

It's music. Can you hear it?

-They're coming now. -Turn up the volume as much as you can.

-Here it is. -Hello?

Hi! Do you have any information about A7-A2 and B7-G7?

-No. -This is chess! We're running up.

At the first stop, the combinations resembled a chess game.

We felt it should go quickly, because we have both Anna-

-who is incredibly good at chess, and Thomas who thinks he is.

-A7 to A2. -Then it's B7 to G7.

-From here. -In the same square, but in column two...

...it's Gustav seven to Bertil two.

Are there two different elements with several things in each?

-There are three boxes. -Niklas is amazing in many ways.

Let me explain this: B7 to G7.

-But when it came to communication... -B7 to G7. H7 to E4.

It's hard to remember. ...I didn't understand anything.

-Niklas, say it's a padlock. -His phone skills were quite chaotic.

This... You could say it's a lock.

-It felt like we were standing there... -There are four, or three squares.

-...for an eternity. -Filip, can you explain?

We've said all the instructions. There's a gray padlock in front of me.

In this padlock, there are three columns in a row. Okay?

-The first column's move: A7 to A2. -Yes. That's one.

The second column's move is B7 to G7. Move two is G7 to B2.

-So and so... It's a seven. -Now we're moving on to the third column.

Håkan seven to Erik four. Erik four to Håkan four.

Håkan seven to Håkan two.

-It's a four. Do you see that? -One-seven-four. Good, we have it.

Very nice. Clear and educational.

It could have gone a little faster.

-You do it, you with the young girl’s eyes. -And nice nails.

-Yes! It's open. -Good!

-What does it say? -"Every hut and every castle..."

"...needs a defense of the finest measure."

"Could it have been owned by a powerful baron? The next clue is inside a..."

-Cannon! -The cannons are outside the entrance.

-There are two. -I'll check one of them.

-Here! A ball. -Did you find it?

-Here we have it! -X and -V. -X and V need to go away.

We have to choose between two paths. Red to the right or green to the left.

-Do you have anything that indicates either of them? -The ball's color is red.

-We're going for red. We'll call soon. -Bye. Good luck.

It worked out pretty well.

We have pretty good dynamics regarding who thinks about the codes,

-the numbers and stuff. Then we have the right people carrying the heavy load.

-Three, two, one... -Let's go.

Good! Now we have good speed.

Great. Good pace! Come on!

For the first time, it felt like we were trying to work as a team.

It was the team before the individual today. That was nice.

Always look on the bright side of life.

What the hell are they doing with so many? There must be bad team spirit there.

We're almost there!

-I think we're really good. -There are too many cooks over there.

I'm starting to get stressed now, because there's not much time left.

-It's here. -Okay.

-Here's something... -North and south. It's a compass.

-We put down the crosses. -The numbers at the bottom of the crosses...

-...must be used for something. -For the lock? It says "chiffonier."

-What does that mean? -It's a dresser, kind of.

The treasure must be in the chiffonier in the library.

So it's up to us to get the code for the lock.

Bosse, look. When we put them down, we'll see a number in the holes.

When we place the crosses correctly, we'll see a number in the holes.

-Good, Marie! -Did I get a little praise there?

-Come on now. -But which way should it be?

-Which way? -But it's also a compass.

You understood that the crosses should be placed in the stand that was there.

But then it took a little time before we understood-

-that the numbers on the cross indicated which direction they should face.

-What does it say on yours? -180 degrees.

-What numbers do you have? -Zero-nine-zero.

-90 degrees should be east. -180 is south. 270 is west.

Come on now! Lift that thing!

-There. -A seven!

-A five! -Two.

275. No... Yes!

-Liam, run! -Come on, Liam!

Fucking hell, man...

-Liam! -Open it. Here...

Yes!

You're so into the game. So when you finally manage to open it with the key-

-you just scream.

-Damn, you ran fast! -The cash!

I think the competitions are a blast.

They're among the best moments.

For a moment, you have to fight for the same thing.

It's not kill or be killed, but you're just gathering cash.

I have to start by applauding you.

You actually succeeded with the mission. You could say that.

You had 30 minutes. 40,000.

-But... you went over time. -No!

I could be mean and keep the money.

But since I'm humble and nice-

-you only need to leave 20,000 for the collection.

-Come on now, show me the money. -We don't believe in that.

-It doesn't matter. -Negotiate!

No negotiations with Gago. Good job.

I could have taken everything, but I'm generous.

Go into the castle now. Chill out a bit.

And then... we'll see each other in the council room.

Then the hunt for the Traitors really begins.

-Arrivederci. -Arrivederci!

Now it's really important to try to find a Traitor.

The atmosphere has been almost desperate, because we've had two innocent victims-

-plus the murders of the nights. It's a game that's incredibly diabolical.

-Thomas! Are you playing pool alone? -There were people here just now.

-We never talk about the game. -No. Tell me about it.

I don't know if you're a really good Traitor or not.

-Tell me what you think. -I suspected you a bit at first.

-Why's that? -You were hiding behind playing chess.

It's dangerous to keep Anna around. She's incredibly smart and analytical.

-You understand why I think that. -Because I want to play chess?

Because you don't want to talk about the game. You might find it hard-

-to lie and therefore don't want to talk about the game, since you're a Traitor.

My strategy of being quite loud has been-

-that if I'm right about the Traitors, then probably-

-people around me will suspect them if I die.

I hope it works-

-because I think the Traitors actually wanted to kill me.

I don't trust anyone. As soon as someone says they suspect me-

-I want to kill them as soon as possible.

It's a bit tricky. Most of the people who voted for me yesterday-

-will probably vote for me today. I think they want answers.

I hope that Thomas, Kelda, and Marianne-

-even though she's also at risk, do their job today-

-and still try as much as they can to sway others.

I've tried to plant my suspicions about Anna.

I don't think I can talk to anyone today.

No conflicts, I feel. I don't want to talk to anyone who gets angry.

It's really hard to gauge who might jump on the Anna bandwagon.

Niklas was on her yesterday. I don't really know about Bosse.

It would have been so nice if Bosse could be on my side in this.

I don't know where Gabriella stands. Anette is also hard to read.

We need to get a Traitor out now. Everyone has to agree to that.

-But I don't feel safe. -How can you feel safe?

Then maybe I'm being a bit selfish now and thinking about myself.

There are many names being mentioned. One of them is Marianne.

I'm not... Knock on wood.

I'm not up on the flannel board now with my name. You are.

But I wonder why?

However, I have one that I held accountable yesterday in the council room.

And it's our chess genius Anna-

-whom I'm feeling uncertain about, if the expression is allowed.

This whole thing about who it is changes all the time. It's so hard.

I've started to think: Is Gabriella a Traitor?

Is Liam a Traitor?

Even Anette, who is so nice, I'm thinking that about.

Is she a Traitor? This is much harder than I thought.

Listen carefully now. I'm only saying this to you two.

I know who the Traitors are but haven't been able to say too much.

Nadim, Dona, Marianne and Marie are the Traitors.

I know who they are. It's Nadim and Dona.

-We were four. -I think this is fucking hard.

Just hold close. Yes.

I thought I had everything under control.

Then Filip came with a completely new theory.

That Dona and Nadim are Traitors together with Marie S and Marianne.

-Are you sure? -One hundred percent.

I have no idea how my brain works.

I don't have time to explain everything I've done to get here.

If Marie gets kicked out, there will be three Traitors left.

But if we get Marie out the others will attack us.

I have a plan to protect you.

I need to make her not dare to go after us.

If we get Marie S out I just need to tell Dona:

"If you take me, Liam, Anna, or Emilia I'll tell everyone it's you."

"Then you'll be out next time." Her name will be blasted out-

-if she takes any of us. She won't dare.

I'll try to make it happen. Right now we need to follow my plan.

So we follow the plan. And the plan is still Marie S.

The Traitors' weapon is that they can kill whoever they want every night.

The Faithful ones' countermeasure is that they can collectively exile the player-

-they believe is a Traitor. If they succeed, we'll see now.

It's time for another exile at the round table.

I really hope I'm right that Marie is a Traitor.

I might back off a bit and hope something comes up-

-that makes people doubt how they were originally going to vote.

I'm completely sure about Marie and Marianne.

Then there are many who are 50-50.

Finally, we're here... at the round table.

The table where conversation is free.

It makes me think of what Italians usually say.

"Parla senza paura." Speak without fear.

But we have another word that is powerful and beautiful.

And that is "democracy." The majority decides.

The mission went well.

But what matters now is: "Parla senza paura."

We carried a cross. Now we have another cross to bear.

It's really important that we find a Traitor today.

Yes, we must.

Let's be honest and say that many suspect you.

-I've understood that. -I want to say that for my part...

...given what has happened with the witch hunts, this feels like another witch hunt.

I'm not a hundred percent sure that it's you, Marie.

So I haven't made up my mind yet.

It's not just personal against you. Many who are gone suspected you.

So now many want clarity. Unfortunately, you are a common denominator-

-for many independent individuals. Marie O has gone after you several times.

Regardless, we need to hear if you are Faithful or a Traitor.

-I've said that I am Faithful. -Can I ask a question, Marie?

I'm wondering: Who or who do you think are Traitors?

I only have one really that I've been thinking about.

And that's you, Anna. I said that during breakfast today.

You are a few who have stuck together... since day one.

-And you are smart, Anna. -Right now, the focus is on Marie.

But I need to have a broad view of this ensemble.

For me, you've been on my radar. I've said that earlier today.

-Do you have any more suspects? -I'm unsure about the rest.

I think it's really difficult. Can you list two, three, four names?

-Yes, actually. -Oh, okay.

A pretty large coalition has formed-

-against number one, Marie, and number two, Marianne.

They are Traitors, which is a problem.

You have to think ahead too. What's best for me in the game?

Is there anyone who has any defense for Marie S?

-No one will dare to do that. -We've talked about the gaze.

-Yes. -It doesn't hold up.

-Marie, you looked at me pretty hard. -Today?

-No, now. -I've been looking around at everyone here.

Marie had a worried look. She must be a Traitor.

You have a gaze...

That is powerful.

Yes, that's the gaze you want to look at the most at this table.

What's happening? Bosse is in the wrong program.

This isn't "Love Island."

When she looks at someone... Since we were sitting across from each other-

-you can become weak.

-Can I say something? -Go ahead, Thomas.

It's important to highlight small things that could be something objective.

Now it's... I don't believe in this gaze thing.

However, I thought Liam made a point yesterday.

You had a chance at this shield. Now it's very clear, Marie-

-that you can't be saved. I saved her yesterday. It can't happen twice.

-I've tried to explain that. -I know.

Maybe it was like Liam said, that you weren't that interested in the shield.

When it comes to you, Marianne... If someone jokes with you, you take it well.

But when it becomes a competition or if you lie-

-you get so incredibly upset in a completely different way.

-That's probably my personality. -That was a way in the competition.

When you were in a bad position. I'm just trying to find a bit of objectivity.

I can't lie. That's what Thomas was feeding into now.

His reasoning was confirming for the Faithful ones who are against me.

It was interesting and exciting. It's time to vote.

Write the name of the person you want to banish on the tile in front of you.

For me, Marie S has been like a fucking nagging toothache.

You feel rotten shit in your tooth and need to get an answer from the dentist.

Of course, you think strategically. Should you be someone who goes with the flow-

-or go against the current and show that you have character?

The votes are locked. It's time to find out who is leaving the game.

We start with you, Liam.

I don't think my vote is particularly shocking, really.

-But I'm voting for you, unfortunately. -A vote for Marie.

-Here you go, Marie. -I think Anna is a Traitor.

-Here you go, Ronny. -I need to know, Marie...

Two votes for Marie. One for Anna. Here you go, Bodström.

I promised Filip this morning to follow my gut feeling.

And I have. I still think Marie is a strong argument.

But if I follow my gut feeling, then I go for Marianne.

One vote for Marianne, one vote for Anna and two votes for Marie.

There's still a chance!

One vote for Marianne, one vote for Anna and two votes for Marie.

-Filip. -I want to know for my well-being.

-Marie S. -Three votes for Marie.

-Here you go, Marianne. -This is going to be exciting.

Is this extra exciting? Okay, I understand.

I'm also going with my gut feeling. It's grown more and more over time.

And it's with...

I've also started to suspect you, Marie.

That was tactical, since we understood that Marie would be voted out.

Four votes for Marie. Here you go.

I've suspected you since day one, and feel that I need to know.

So it's you, Marie.

Five votes for Marie. Here you go, Anna.

Yes. I also believe in Marie.

Six votes for Marie. Kelda.

You've been defensive in arguments.

I also want to know. I think you're a Traitor.

Seven votes for Marie. Bosse.

Marie, you're a team player. We need those in a team.

But this is something else. My vote is for you, Marie.

Here you go, Niklas.

Marie, I haven't been that suspicious of you.

-But now I'm voting for you. -Another vote for Marie.

-Here you go, Dona. -Marie.

Eleven votes for Marie.

-Anette. -I'm going to vote for someone...

...who I would have picked as the best Traitor among you.

-It's you, Filip. -Here you go.

-I need to know. It's that simple. -Nadim, last vote.

I've been clear, straightforward, and honest.

We have a result. Marie, you've received the most votes-

-and must leave the game immediately. Please step forward.

It was short but sweet. This has been incredibly exciting.

It's been crazy fun. There are many skilled players here.

I feel like I wasn't quite done here, though.

When you're chosen as a Traitor you realize how hard it is.

It goes against your nature to keep lying like this. It...

I guess I should take it as a compliment that I'm bad at-

-keeping this poker face and playing this well.

And now what everyone is most curious about. Are you a Traitor or Faithful?

I am...

-...a Traitor. -Yes!

-Yes! -Yeah, yeah!

Then I felt really damn proud that-

-her name was on my sign.

-Rys...! -I knew it!

-Okay. Congratulations! -Thanks.

It depends on which team you're playing for. But you know how it works in here.

Soon, it will be night. Keep sleeping with your eyes open.

-Then anything can happen. Arrivederci. -Arrivederci.

Until the very end, she was an Oscar winner. Don't you think?

And there's someone else who doesn't deserve an Oscar-

-but I'll deal with that with the person involved later.

One more thing... There are Traitors here who have voted.

-That's what I'm looking at now. -They threw her under the bus.

It was obviously very tough to vote her out.

Because she was one of "us". I know it's a game.

But situations like that actually become very difficult.

The Traitors are skilled and exist in all groups, I realize.

It was a good opportunity to vote for Marie.

I hadn't even considered voting for Marianne.

The move that Thomas made was actually fantastic.

-Great job, team. -Yeah, great job.

-This was a win. -The first success.

What a feeling for all of us that we actually took one of them down.

-It's hard to describe. -It was nice that she was a Traitor.

-Then it became very clear. -I was onto her.

I give four suns out of five to my performance today.

I couldn't say for sure, but there was that famous gut feeling.

-I voted for her the first night. -Shall we toast to Marie's performance?

-We're over here. -Cheers to Marie!

It was so nice that we found a Traitor.

Everyone just relaxed and celebrated. It was a really great feeling.

-I can figure out who is going out. -But the joy lasted for 1.5 seconds.

-Because then Filip was on it. -I've done some mental math.

I know that if she, he...

...or Emilia gets voted out during the night then I know it's you.

-Why is it me? -You'll understand later.

He says that if he or any of them gets killed tonight-

-it's me who's the Traitor.

But can't you...? You can't just leave.

-I don't trust you. -But how did it turn around?

I can't explain my brain. No one has ever understood it.

All I know with 100% certainty... You are part of the equation.

-You don't need to explain. -I need to have a conversation about it.

The problem is that I am Faithful and his math is failing.

-I'm mathematical in my brain. -I can't get a word in... It's a wall.

-There's nothing to gain. -If it happens, I know it's you.

-I'm still a friend. -You are a friend. Genuinely.

Poor Dona.

If any of them gets voted out, you'll be out next.

-I've done strategic math. -Okay.

I swear to God it's not me. I swear on my mom.

The plan is in full swing. Nadim's and Dona's joy burst.

-They had other hopes than what they were told. -I swear I'm not a Traitor.

But if... What I'm telling you now is not something I throw around.

If that doesn't help, Filip, then I'm completely hopeless.

You don't need to comment on that. I'm not going into details.

I'm just telling you that if Liam, Anna, Emilia-

-or I get voted out, then I know. That's all I have to say.

What happened after the council room, I can hardly answer.

I don't know what happened. Can I ask one thing?

-I can't explain my brain. -You don't need to.

What's happening now? You have to explain it to me.

I really wish I could explain it.

-But I don't know. -I can't explain my math.

-You haven't played Faithfully. -What have I done?

What deeply provokes me is how they fought-

-for king and country to convince me that they are Faithful.

-You don't need to explain. -So they lie to my face.

Do I look stupid? I've explained everything very clearly.

I've already prepared strategies on levels you can't comprehend.

Filip is really going hard. His thought processes are complicated.

-He's convinced it's true. -That's why it's irrelevant!

But that all the focus is directed at them and not at me is just positive.

Now I'm calm. That's all I have to say.

I've prepared everyone that if any of us gets voted out-

-then you'll go one by one. You'll see it with your own eyes.

The desperation in swearing on your parents and on God...

...I just interpret as: "I know." We're going for it. I'm going to take you on now.

I just want to tell you that I am Faithful.

I'm not a Traitor. He said that if our team goes, then it's me.

I didn't get the chance to say anything about it.

I thought the situation with Filip was really stressful.

It feels devastating for me.

-He's going to say it's me. -No, no.

I swear I'm Faithful. Right now, I'd rather be killed-

-to avoid a witch hunt tomorrow.

I swear it's not me. It's going to be a restless night.

If I get killed, then I'm out. If I don't get killed-

-then I'm a Traitor. It's going to be a tough morning, but...

Now this thing with Dona has come up. So it might be pretty smart-

-to kill me, Anna, or Liam if they want to direct suspicion towards Dona.

The question is whether everyone thinks Ronny is starting to get his Columbo thinking going.

It's very possible that they'll take me tonight.

Now we have a bit to chew on. We're not very successful as Traitors.

Are we? Or?

When we get to our meeting the atmosphere is extremely tense-

-considering that Thomas just voted for Marianne.

You could cut the atmosphere with a knife.

You were a bit mean to me today, Thomas.

You fueled what people think of me. I'm really bad at lying.

So can we get a little backup on that, since we're all Traitors?

Just like with Marie, I said what had already been said.

-Was that smart? -Yeah, so it wouldn't be obvious.

I chose to vote for Marianne. She got a bit upset about it.

I can understand that. We knew Marie was going to be voted out.

It's a competition between Traitors and Faithfuls, but also among the Traitors.

-I'm going out tomorrow. -I'm not so sure about that.

Trust is frayed by what has happened.

"Many voted for Marie. It didn't matter that I voted for you."

-It didn't affect anything. -You could have said Bosse.

I knew you weren't going to be voted out.

Right. It felt like that.

Marianne is really disappointed in Thomas, and doesn't understand how he can do that.

Marianne is a team player. Thomas isn't, as I've understood it.

-Look who's coming here to say hi. -Gago! Oh my God...

I see there's an empty chair.

I thought I'd interrupt your little murder club.

Tonight there won't be a murder as usual.

Instead, you will activate this list.

We can call it a death list.

You get to put up four people and choose exactly who you want.

Faithful or Traitor. It's completely up to you.

-Okay. -We understand.

Calm and collected...

After the whole day, you will murder one of those on the list-

-when night falls. But there's one more thing.

During tomorrow's mission, the group gets to pardon one on the list.

-Oh! -That person escapes death.

-Are we in agreement? -Yes.

I look forward to seeing which four you put on the death list.

I want you to hand it over as soon as you're done.

-Oh, oh, oh... -Oh, now we have to think tactically here.

It's a shame we won't be killing anyone tonight. I was looking forward to it.

Now everything suddenly turned upside down.

Why couldn't we just kill someone? This is going to be so fucking hard.

The plan was to kill Anna. Now the rules have changed.

And then there are two who aren't connected to this. Like Niklas.

That sparked long discussions.

Let's think through what the different scenarios mean.

Anna is at the top of those we need to get rid of. She's really dangerous.

-I agree about Anna. -You don't want Niklas involved.

I don't think he's liked enough for anyone to want to save him.

I haven't heard anyone who's 'bonded' with him.

-Have you heard from any of your guys? -Yeah, I get some info.

Since Thomas voted for Marianne, I know he's thinking about himself.

We're probably playing a similar game. That makes me a little scared.

-Nadim is super dangerous. -Don't take Nadim. I get good info from him.

-You do...? -Good info from him.

We mostly argued about whether Nadim should be in or out.

I don't really have a good handle on the relationship between Nadim and Thomas.

But he got really upset when I wanted him on the list.

-I don't want him involved. -All his choices...

...and everything he justifies is to benefit himself in this game.

What information do you get? I don't really understand.

He mentioned, for example, first of all, about Marie.

-What does that have to do with anything? -I get that information.

I don't think you're telling the truth. You're doing it for your own gain.

No, no. I get info.

No, I'm getting confused. You can't trust a single word he says.

-He benefits a lot from Nadim. -Kelda, let go of Nadim now.

I can't. I don't want to either.

And how did he get Marianne, who he just voted for, on his side?

They become a hell of a force the more they are together.

I don't believe you for a second. It's completely absurd.

But that's exactly how skilled Thomas is.

-I have to think about myself too. -Absolutely.

-But I'm thinking 24 hours ahead. -I'm not buying this, Thomas.

-If we have Nadim and Anna... -No! We can't take both.

Is that the death list?

That it would take such a fucking long time. Get moving now.
