Original subtitles

The game just keeps getting harder and harder and darker and darker.

The peer pressure became too much and Dona was rejected at the round table.

I am always Faithful.

Down in the tomb the drama continues.

That bastard!

-How is Dona doing after the group's betrayal? -You feel like a constantly open flesh wound.

-Did Filip cross the line? -Filip broke me down.

We analyze the game with someone who was also falsely accused-

-and subjected to peer pressure.

I feel like I never got the chance.

Above all we reveal the big secret.

Welcome to "The Tomb."

It's clear to me that peer pressure is incredibly effective.

I've seen it all.

That twelve grown adults can fall so hard for peer pressure.

Idiots, all of them.

I just want to know how you really feel.

If it weren't for my age and my life experience-

-I would be feeling a lot worse right now.

It's hard to explain everything by saying it's a game, a play.

This was something beyond that. It was personal and tough.

I'm glad I'm not a young and insecure girl.

I'm not a Traitor.

-Shervin suspected you. -He also said...

Shervin explicitly told me that you are a Traitor.

"Don't you think she's suspicious?"

You will send out someone who is not a Traitor.

There was nothing to respond to and everyone just... "That's concrete."

This year's game is much tougher.

I was so impressed by how you handled it, with such calmness.

A composed calmness.

If Emilia gets voted out, then I know it's you.

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

I just came from there. I haven't had time to start feeling.

I think I'm still dealing with the lump in my throat.

Trying to handle longing and worry.

I feel disappointment.

I feel like maybe I should have done things differently.

I feel all the praise and moments-

-when I swore on my honor and conscience, and tried to make them understand.

-I'm not a Traitor. -The things you have sworn to...

I have sworn and promised to convince you.

I'm bad at defending myself when I'm attacked-

-but I'm quick when someone else is targeted.

Then I'm there like a spear. Nadim tried to step in for me.

Then I got really provoked-

-when Filip started pointing at him. Then I got really angry at Filip.

I don't like interruptions, power plays...

We've talked about condescending things.

-It's not needed, you're so sharp. -Should I tell you why?

I just want to say that it's unnecessary.

People aren't doing well. Have respect for that.

When Marie S played on the discomfort you picked it up.

-You shut up! -Don't yell at him, Filip.

You don't need to raise your voice. There are limits.

-I feel very uncomfortable. -You have nothing to do with this.

I was waiting to use argumentation techniques-

-but I just got attacked.

There was nothing to respond to, so I chose silence.

-Can I finish speaking? -That's a lie.

I lost track of what I was going to say.

I was waiting for them to give me something to argue against.

They gave me nothing.

Is Filip your voice? That's really weird. I can't respond to anything.

It felt like a herd mentality, everyone was going after one person.

It was sad to see that you couldn't defend yourself.

We were supposed to be straightforward and Bosse...

He patted me on the shoulder.

When we sat there, he couldn't meet my gaze even once.

You have no idea.

You become a psychopath in there. Bosse's gaze means everything to me.

You fell for the group pressure.

No one outside sees the bubble that's building around you.

Everything feels amplified a thousand times.

You're constantly an open wound.

Everything hurts, everything stings, everything bleeds all the time.

The players you've had have gone for harder attacks.

The vulnerable have been targeted in a much harsher way.

As a Faithful person, you walk on eggshells all the time.

"Who can I trust? Will I survive? Will they attack me?"

What made you the saddest in the game?

Saddest...?

I don't know what to say.

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

I'll say this to you...

I swear to God, to my mom and dad...

Filip used deliberate strategies to break me down.

He used several power plays.

I don't work as a lawyer. It's not nice to roll your eyes.

-I'm quiet, let me be. -Forget about him.

It's up to him if he wants to come off that way.

I don't want to be a part of it. I'd rather get voted out.

How do you think Filip feels?

I hope he sees this as a lesson.

-What you say is nice. -It's so nice to talk to you.

Someone who understands. I never want to go home.

I miss my husband, but he doesn't understand what I'm talking about.

After the break, we'll reveal the big secret-

-and then a participant will come here to talk about group psychology.

Whatever you say just makes you more suspicious.

The group turned against Dona and she got voted out.

Dona, are you Faithful or a Traitor?

I am always Faithful.

Now she's in the grave chamber to give her side of the story.

Did you have any strategy if you were to be Faithful?

I got voted out because I didn't have a strategy.

I thought I would be a Traitor.

I figured it would be that simple to be Faithful.

It's about building credibility, loyalty-

-and navigating skillfully. I thought I could do that.

I had no strategy as a Faithful. I thought it was like in life.

How many do you think the Traitors are?

We've always talked about there being four from the start.

I also think there have been four.

-Two have been voted out. -Marie and Marianne.

-Who do you think the other two are? -I want to get it right.

Leave some wisdom behind for me.

Niklas and Anna?

Who do you think might have been recruited?

I hope it's not Nadim, I don't know.

I will show you who the Traitors are.

No, no, no.

-Is it Thomas, that bastard? -You'll see.

It's worse than that.

Why am I so dramatic?

-Dona, look at me. -I really don't want to see.

-Are you ready to see the Traitors? -No, but let's do it anyway.

That bastard! I actually mentioned her name once.

Yeah, damn... Shit, she's crazy.

But I'm not surprised.

-Do you think she played well? -I hope she goes all the way.

She's awesome, what a player.

-Can I see the next one? -Yeah, are you ready?

Is it Thomas's neck?

Holy shit, what a funny combination.

Both are original Traitors, and someone has been recruited.

Nadim has been weird today. He hasn't been himself.

Let's check who the recruited Traitor is.

One plus one...

He's been really off today.

He's been Mother Teresa in there. He's been a saint.

This is really tough for him.

He's going to get crushed.

If I go down, it's you, if you go down, it's me.

Cheers.

It's going to get a lot tougher than he thinks.

The change was obvious. He needs to hide it better.

-Do you think the Traitors will win? -Considering they have Thomas...

...I think they will win.

Thank you so much for coming here and talking about everything up there.

-In the tomb chamber, you can really talk things out. -It felt really good.

Now we're going to continue discussing the game with a participant from last season.

Jonas von Essen analyzed the game down to the smallest detail.

Maybe he analyzed it a bit too much.

Don't vote for me.

His downfall was that he couldn't defend himself.

He had the whole group against him.

It became an emotional situation for everyone.

Not least for me.

I hope we can be friends.

Welcome down to the tomb chamber, Jonas von Essen.

Hi.

-Welcome to my tomb chamber. -Thank you very much.

It's like being thrown back in time.

-How are you? -Good, very good.

Nice to be able to meet without suspecting each other.

-You never needed that. -And you didn't suspect me.

No.

How have the Traitors been thinking?

He's making himself suspicious. I love it.

You were the hardest for me. It felt like I betrayed you.

-I'm sorry. -You should play as well as you can.

You really did. I'm impressed.

I'm a Traitor and I have to play my role.

It's been a year now. Have you gained some distance from it all?

Yeah, really. It feels like a whole different life.

It became like its own world. It feels absurd now that I was there.

-Now it feels more like a dream. -I know what you mean.

I remember one thing about you quite specifically.

You thought so much, almost overthought.

It was a bit to my disadvantage that I thought so much.

Then I became so insecure. Anything could mean anything.

I thought I could figure out things and made a mind map.

I also gave it to you. It got messier and messier.

You were wrong so many times.

I really became more and more confused.

I drew arrows to everyone who suspected someone.

Those who had a lot of arrows got eliminated.

If someone turns out to be a Traitor, you can exclude those arrows.

It was very difficult to draw any conclusions.

I became very insecure, and didn't dare to join any pact.

That made some suspect me.

It was very emotional for you, especially at the round table.

When you were sitting there and got accused, how did it feel?

It felt unreal.

The first few days, I was not suspected at all.

Then you feel: "Great, this is my role."

"I'm a nice person who can try to help solve this."

Nice to be Faithful. You can just be yourself.

I don't need to play anything.

Do you use your intelligence for something good?

A Traitor that they throw in for tactical reasons.

When I started to have suspicions against me, I didn't understand exactly-

-how serious it was, until we were sitting at the round table.

"It's not just Feime."

"Most people seem to think that I'm a Traitor."

If you're unsure about me, I completely understand that.

It's the hardest game I've ever played.

I think you're one of them.

I've been unsure about you, Jonas. You've been acting strangely.

I'm not a Traitor. I get that I've done...

I understand if you think that. It's not strange-

-but don't vote for me.

From a psychological perspective... We've seen that in this season.

You don't dare to say what you think, because then you end up in the line of fire.

It's a risk, especially if the group is right.

If someone goes their own way, they're clearly a "Traitor."

If someone seems suspicious... You know that most are Faithful.

You assume they're right.

Then it turns out that it's rarely the case.

When you're sitting there and getting accused-

-by someone with a strong voice, how do you defend yourself against that?

It's hard if you don't have a strong voice back.

That's how it was for me with Feime, who was very aggressive.

I tried to think, but he just kept going.

He seems much more convincing. He's completely sure of himself.

-Is it logical to kill Marko? -We just think differently.

Completely incomprehensible theories. Why would I kill Marko?

-If you're a Traitor, that's great. -So I kill Marko?

That makes me think that you're playing really weirdly.

It looks bad.

This season, the game is extremely tough.

There are so many emotions and...

...anger in the form of sorrow.

That you couldn't be the person you thought you were.

You're innocently accused, but you don't know what to do.

If you don't know the others well-

-and have everyone against you, it can really get tough.

That's how it was a bit for Lucas who randomly got voted out first.

99.99% sure that Lucas is a Traitor.

He acts abnormally nervous.

If you're a Traitor, you play badly.

It became too much for me.

-Lucas, unfortunately, you have to leave the game. -Yes.

You feel like you didn't get a chance.

It's hard when you have everyone against you.

Whatever you say, you just become more suspicious.

What you might not notice when watching the show is-

-that you bond with people for real.

Even if you shouldn't trust people, you do.

People usually trust others.

In reality, you think that unreliable people are a certain way.

If you then feel that the people in the show aren't like that-

-then you trust them.

You think it's them even though it's just random.

After this whole experience...

Have you changed the way you see people?

Yeah, a little. You gain a completely different understanding-

-that everyone reacts and thinks differently.

It's easy to believe that someone feels a certain way-

-or thinks something specific.

It's hard to know unless you talk to the person.

It can be good to ask people how they are feeling.

Not just to assume you understand but to get to the bottom of it.

I do that more often now than before.

It still feels luxurious to have experienced this-

-within a limited timeframe.

Jonas, thanks for not hating me and thanks for coming here.

-Thank you so much, it was really fun. -You're the best.

Good that we're on the same team.

And that we don't lie to each other.

Next week, the game continues.

How does the group change now that Nadim is being recruited?

Do the Faithful ones have a chance as the Traitors grow stronger?

Who gets murdered next?

We'll find out in the next episode of "The Tomb."
