- Previously on "The Traitors"...

- Didn't you say that Monét said my name?

- He said, Lisa.

- It's got to be Monét.

- And if he didn't say me, I would not pick him tonight.

It's too bad, but he did.

- "Dear Monét, by order of the Traitors,

you have been murdered."

- It's Colton.

I know it for a fucking fact, because Colton finds Monét...

- Threatening? - Threatening.

- Hidden alongside the missing statues are shields.

If none of you take a shield,

you will stop tonight's murder.

- I don't trust everybody.

- Collectively, we have agreed to not take shields.

But I really don't trust that every other player

stuck to the plan.

- What are we thinking tonight?

- I'm going with Ron. - I'm back on to Ron.

- If you actually stop and think about it,

everybody who voted for Michael night one,

except for one person, is gone.

- You are a fucking Traitor.

I'm angry, I'm pissed off,

and I am isolated because of him--

conniving, commiserating Colton.

His behavior is of a Traitor.

- If you're a Faithful,

you are the most distracting Faithful for the Faithfuls.

- I think we should just get together

and vote him out of here.

- You just voted out

the best-looking, smartest Faithful.

[clicks tongue]

- Can I ask you because you know her?

Lisa--is she normally this quiet?

- No.

- Voting for Porsha night one

is my biggest red flag on her.

And she wears her sunglasses a lot.

- Colton is coming for you.

- He's fucking trouble. I knew it. I fucking knew it.

- Okay, if we can murder tonight, he got to go.

- I just don't have a good feeling about murdering tonight

because I don't know if anyone took a shield.

- A new dawn breaks over my castle.

And soon, the players will discover whether the Traitors

were denied their murder.

Oh, my gosh.

I've never been first into breakfast before.

- Oh, salmon. And there's salmon down here.

- Okay.

This is exciting.

It's really peaceful, isn't it? - Ooh, yeah, it's lovely.

- Now that we don't have Michael as a distraction...

- Mm-hmm. - It'll be interesting

to see what other conversations happen.

- Do you think everyone's going to still go for Ron?

- Yeah.

- I think he's going to be on everyone's radar.

- Do you think everyone's coming to breakfast?

- Oh, my God. - I don't know.

- I think there's a few people that would have taken a shield

if they knew no one would have caught them.

- I don't know. Let's not manifest it.

Mm, a little bit nervous.

We don't know if someone took a shield.

Has everyone stuck to their word,

or has the Traitors murdered someone?

It's so hard to trust everyone in this castle.

- Oh, my God.

I can't take it. [chuckles]

Ah.

Now that Michael's gone,

we've lost a really great distraction.

You know, the Faithfuls want to get a Traitor.

And I know my name has been mentioned.

So I need to sprinkle some Housewife in today.

Nothing big, but it's time

to change the narrative a little bit.

- It is so stressful.

I need wine at breakfast, I think.

- Or champagne or vodka. - [laughs]

[knock at door] - [gasps]

- Stephen, your sweater is beautiful.

- Oh, thank you, thank you.

You know, I like to set the bar for you guys.

- I like your hat, Tara. - Thank you.

- I'm just happy to still be here.

When we were in the roundtable last night,

I was sure I was going home, and I just stayed quiet

until Michael said something...

stupid enough that they sent him home.

Toast. - Oh.

- And so now I'm going to get back to work

and talk with some of the people who I trust.

- We feeling like everyone's going to come back?

- I think we did it, guys.

I think we got one over the Traitors.

- Unless someone was, like, super sneaky about it.

I don't know if I trust everybody yet.

So it's like, I don't know.

- It's harder the further we go

because we get closer and closer

and everyone's becoming friends.

This castle is madness.

You can never trust anyone,

except Tara Lipinski.

Right now, I have to unify a cluster of Faithfuls

because now the group is small enough that, with eight people,

you can control the roundtable.

And we need to get the Traitors.

If things did not go our way and if somebody took a shield,

there are four big names up there.

- So we're waiting on...

- Yam Yam, Colton, Dorinda, Eric.

- I feel like Dorinda or Eric. - Eric has no heat on him.

If you were a Traitor, you would be so good at it,

you're such a good representation

of what the South is really about.

- I appreciate that, man. That warms my heart, truly.

I do feel bad about Ron's position in this game.

I genuinely like him.

Ron is an introvert.

And I feel where he's coming from.

I was always the odd man out growing up--

quiet, did my own thing, kind of kept to myself.

And it can be lonely.

I mean, sometimes the loneliest place

for someone like that is in a crowded room.
