Original subtitles

Maria was in three of the pictures. Brynjar too.

- Who are the two threes? - Maria and Brynjar.

Brynjar and Maria are each in three of these pictures.

So statistically speaking, they are in a pretty bad position.

So it’s you and Maria who are the threes.

- Hi. - How’s it going?

I’m really stressed.

- I’m mentioned in three of the pictures. - Statistically speaking...

there’s a very high chance that you or Brynjar is the Traitor.

What do you say?

Which of you is the Traitor?

- I don’t know. - It’s not me.

It’s not me either, but I think that...

- It’s not you, Brynjar? - No.

This is what everyone is talking about right now, so I thought...

I can do math, so I see it. I can’t argue against this.

Maria?

I really believe in you. I understand that it’s really uncomfortable.

It’s strange to be in a situation where you feel completely helpless.

It’s uncomfortable to feel that people distrust me.

When you only have each other, but everyone turns against you.

Now I’m thinking... I don’t even know what to say.

I don’t know how I can defend myself.

I’ve found an interesting argument.

There’s twice the chance that she is the Traitor.

She could have been tempted and chosen from the beginning.

- Yes, like that. Actually. - If it’s Maria...

she could have been tempted or chosen.

- Yes, from the start? - According to his logic...

Maria becomes my choice.

You don’t think so? Just go for it?

Both of them believe that there’s only one choice.

- This, like? - It’s the only choice.

It’s going to be a heated council today.

Now we should be able to identify a Traitor, I think.

It’s the psychologist against the defender.

It’s going to be a hell of a defense speech...

from the defender himself: Brynjar Meling.

It’s going to be good. It will contain quotes.

But we’ll see. Maria, who is a psychologist, isn’t stupid...

so it’s impossible to say whether it will go this way or that.

But one of them will probably be out today.

- Good evening. - Good evening.

Yes, you’ve finally got silver in the prize pot. Congratulations.

You’ve also finally got something tangible in the hunt for the Traitors.

I’m really messed up today after that game we had.

- And that’s what the Traitors are playing on. - I think we all are.

The math suggests that if you play high...

you get better information than if you play low.

Twos and threes are definitely the most likely to gather information.

Okay, the players have divided each other into groups...

based on how many times they appear in the pictures from the mission.

Those who appear twice are called twos.

And consist of Veronica, Gaute, and Anette.

Those who appear three times are called threes.

And consist of tonight’s most talked-about names: Brynjar and Maria.

The premise is simple. If there’s a three, then a one is a Traitor.

If there’s a two, then another two is a Traitor...

or a two and two ones.

Alternatively, there are four ones who are Traitors.

So, that’s our premise.

Still confused? It’s really not that complicated.

As Sverre says, there are four possible outcomes.

1: One Traitor appears three times in the pictures.

Then the last one pictured must only appear once.

Outcome 2: Two Traitors each appear twice in the pictures.

3: One Traitor appears twice...

and two other Traitors appear once each.

The last possible outcome is that four Traitors are pictured once each.

As you and I know, that’s not a possibility...

because there are only three Traitors. However, the players don’t know that.

Threes have an extra element in that you can define totally Faithful players.

If you hit a three and guess the right Traitor...

you’ve secured four players.

All the threes and twos are guaranteed Faithful players.

Because... It’s "number problems," yes.

Yesterday it was Che Guevara.

I shared my wealth of knowledge with you.

I’ll make it a bit easier today, and that’s Drillo.

He used to say that there’s one thing that’s underrated in games:

Luck and bad luck.

Either it’s bad luck that I’m in three pictures...

or I’m a Traitor. Or I’m just caught up in a game.

Can she in the emotional corner say something?

I’m facing the same challenge as Brynjar.

I came in here thinking that from the start...

I wouldn’t go with my gut feeling. That’s why it was good for me...

to get to know Jon Ludvig. He’s good with numbers.

And it was really unfortunate for me that he got out last night.

And I can say, I would never have voted for him.

I hope you see that I wouldn’t have taken him out.

But if you’re a Traitor, you would have taken him out.

If you understood how he thinks.

Exactly. I can’t argue against those things now...

when I’m in this position. When the spotlight is on me...

you can always find conclusions...

that make things add up regardless.

It would be genius for me to vote out my best friend.

Brynjar is extremely good at arguing for himself-

and he can even make it seem like I’m the Traitor.

I only have one connection to the Traitors. Maria, for example-

might have been tempted and could be among the 2-3 who were chosen at the start.

I don’t have enough arguments-

to defend why they shouldn’t vote for me.

Brynjar actually has more of an alibi than I do.

I listen a lot to Brynjar.

And I’ve forgotten that you might have been tempted.

The same goes for Anette. The fact that Brynjar and Anette-

are in the top group in the pictures-

whether they appear 2 or 3 times in the pictures-

means we need to talk about temptation.

Did we really think the three super-loyals weren’t tempted?

I believe one of the three super-loyals was tempted that night-

and that one of you is a Traitor. So I can answer that.

And the answer is pretty worthless, because as Christer Petterson said:

"If I had killed Olof Palme, I would have acted the same way."

But if you die today, couldn’t you name-

three people you think are Traitors in this room?

I’ve had my theory, and I think they’re playing quietly and subtly.

So unfortunately for Maria, she fits that category-

and appears three times in the pictures.

- Am I playing quietly? - Yes, in my world, you are.

Brynjar says I’m playing quietly.

There are many here who play more quietly than I do.

But, Brynjar, Anette is also a quiet player.

But you have no suspicion against Anette here?

Yes, yes.

We’re ready to vote.

Write down the name of the player you want to banish from the game.

The one with the most votes is banished.

Okay, Thor?

I think I see two Faithful players.

Therefore, my vote goes to the one I also voted for on the first day.

You, Veronica.

- Okay... - Go ahead, Veronica.

Today, my vote goes to you, Anette.

- I think you’ve been tempted. - I haven’t been tempted.

I’m Faithful. I’m super Faithful!

If anyone doubts that, speak up.

Because I want to play the game, and I want to find a Traitor! Yes!

I wanted to say a little-

because some of the players are a bit passive.

We need to get some Traitors out.

I’ve chosen to go after...

the math today.

I’ve considered both Brynjar and Maria.

And if that’s wrong, it’s a big loss for the Faithful players.

But I’ve voted for you, Brynjar.

It’ll probably be the same for me.

It’s the math and based on a bit of other information.

So that’s how it is. Brynjar.

What’s written on this thing here is a person I value-

and who is a lovely person.

Unfortunately, Maria. I hope you forgive me.

I chose Maria based on the theory I had and the math.

I got a lot of votes, and I understand that very well.

I would probably have done the same if I were the others.

I... I don’t know what to say.

I feel like I’m about to break up with my girlfriend now.

I’m sitting here next to Brynjar.

He’s the one I feel I’ve formed a special bond with.

I just focused on what my gut was telling me.

I just have to do what I feel in my gut.

So I’m voting for Brynjar. Every time...

At least point me in the right direction.

Unfortunately, I think you might have been tempted, Brynjar.

It could be a shot in the dark, but I think it’s-

of course that they’ve chosen Brynjar.

And then it’s Maria.

So that’s 5 votes for Brynjar.

4 for Maria. Johanne, go ahead.

I’m sorry, Brynjar.

If I were a Traitor, I would have-

worked my ass off to get Brynjar on my team.

So that’s why you get my vote.

I also thought it was obvious to vote for Brynjar.

But I went the opposite way-

and wrote down Maria.

So that’s 7 votes for Brynjar and 5 for Maria.

Even though "Brynjar" was written on more and more of the boards-

I knew that after Maria cast her vote-

both Marte and Sverre were sitting...

My head is exploding and empty at the same time.

It feels like I’m about to faint.

I’ve imagined a scenario in the council chamber-

where I just collapse from emotions, because I’m not cold enough.

I’m not cynical enough for this, you know.

It’s very clear about two today.

This is taking a huge risk, which I...

It’s a mix between gut feeling and math.

I hope it works, and I’m really sorry if I’m wrong.

And you are absolutely amazing.

Brynjar.

There are 4 votes left. Mia, if you vote for anything other-

than Maria now, Brynjar is banished.

Yes, these two are the ones I’m also choosing between.

I think the Traitors have thought this:

"We’ll take Jon Ludvig, and then we’ll deal with the Faithful Brynjar later."

So unfortunately, Maria, I’ve written your name down.

That makes it 9 votes for Brynjar and 6 for Maria.

Sarah, if you vote for anything other than Maria now, Brynjar is banished.

Yes, math.

Trust that these three, as we call them-

give us the best chance moving forward in the game.

So it came down to two: Maria and Brynjar.

I’ve written this with a heavy heart...

I find it uncomfortable-

but continuing to vote for people we believe are Faithful-

that’s just nonsense.

Brynjar.

I’m going to miss you.

Brynjar, that means you received the most votes and are banished.

But before that, we’ll look at the votes from Sverre and Thomas.

Now he was just an anchor dragging us down, and we have to-

cut the rope before it causes too much damage.

I also voted for Brynjar.

Can I explain myself just a little?

I’ve been working from the brilliant theory-

that you, Maria, have been a Traitor all along or have been tempted-

and then taken out Jon Ludvig. So I voted for you.

Okay, Brynjar, you are banished from the game.

You can go over there, say a few last words, and reveal your role.

I came in as Faithful, and I have played as Faithful.

And I’ve seen that we Faithful ones have been played-

by the Traitors time and time again.

I have made a strong argument for being Faithful.

I have made a strong argument that I didn’t let myself be tempted.

And I thought I would be able to convince you of that.

I almost managed to convince myself.

- But I am a Traitor. - Yes!

Brynjar, Brynjar!

The moment I realize he is a Traitor, I just...

It was such a primal reaction, just like you’d expect.

When I’ve watched "The Traitors" and people have gotten so excited-

I’ve thought: "Oh my God, calm down."

But it was so incredibly satisfying.

The joy I felt when he was eliminated was, in a way, genuine-

because they were like the cool kids I wanted to hang out with.

"The Faithful ones! I’m really just like you!"

And it’s not acting. That’s where I want to be.

So it felt very natural. It was nice to express-

a kind of victory, even though it wasn’t really that for me.

This was a celebration.

Even though life became quite short in here-

I at least chose not to live crawling-

and I died standing, as Che Guevara put it.

It’s absolutely incredible to achieve this. - Yeah, damn right.

So much more fun than I had expected.

What a euphoria. Wow.

It was so nice to know that now they had to believe in me.

I’m exonerated, and people know it.

And I can see that people are getting completely frantic trying to dig into their notes.

They have to think strategically again right away.

Suddenly, there’s a lot more information available.

A third one, Brynjar, turned out to be a Traitor.

That means Maria and all the twos are now guaranteed not to be Traitors.

I will do my very best to save the other Faithful ones here.

I’m going to hunt down Traitors. I’ll find you, find you, find you!

- I’m so overwhelmed. - Yeah.

I’m so Faithful!

Anette and Veronica.

- Everyone knows those two are Faithful. - But they are very vulnerable.

They’re standing there cheering. They’re over the moon.

Is it tingling in your cross-country skiing legs?

Now I’m stamped as a hundred percent Faithful,

but I’m really afraid of being killed at night.

But I’ve been in the shield room again, which can protect me tonight.

The clock strikes twelve.

Okay, I might die tonight.

While the Faithful ones sleep soundly, the Traitors sneak out-

to make yet another choice.

So, this day... What happened?

Brynjar, good to know you.

There was no hope when the task came. He was 'a walking corpse.'

Either he’s done for today or tomorrow.

- Should we read the letter? - You can do that.

Unfortunately-

it was as we, or I, feared.

No!
