Previously on "The Traitors"...

Fruitgate's not over.

Tomica, she gave fruit to Niyyah and got her killed.

I didn't give anyone fruit.

Give me other names besides me.

Katie is extremely quiet.

I am praying that Victor gets banished.

I voted for Tomica.

I voted for Morgan. I had suspicions today.

Wyatt, I voted for you.

It felt like you were stumbling a little bit.

I wrote Victor.

Victor, I'm voting for you, bud.

Victor, I voted for you.

Victor, you have received the most votes

and are banished from the game.

However, you are not going to be banished just yet.

Come on! Why not?

Earlier today, you all competed for a power.

One player won this power, the Power of the Pardon.

Oh, my God.

One person here holds the power to decide

whether your journey in this game ends--

Oh, my God.

Or continues.

- Oh, my God! - Bro, bro.

Oh, my God.

I can reveal

that the person who won the most gold in today's mission

and therefore has won the Power of the Pardon is--

Shane.

- Bro. - Oh, wow.

Wow.

Bro, bro, bro, bro, bro.

Shut up.

Bro.

The Pardon medallion holds great power.

Oh, my God.

You have the power to give the thumbs up--

Bro, bro, bro.

Or the thumbs down to this democratic decree.

That's crazy.

Quite simply put, it's all on you.

I'm not one to beg.

I don't like to plead, but unfortunately,

you're not going to know what I am unless you banish me.

If I need to go for you to believe me, so be it.

But listen, Shane,

I'm a Faithful.

You did just vote for me, and I know you're a man of your word,

but I--oh, come on, Shane.

Come on, man.

Shane,

you alone can save him or condemn him to banishment.

Do you pardon or banish?

Pardon.

Bro! Let's go, Shane!

Let's go! - Oh, my God.

Let's go, baby!

Come on.

Come on!

Yeah, I'm right here.

We're right here.

You will not regret this.

Wow.

Shane, you have exercised the power of the pardon

and saved Victor.

Holy [bleep].

There will be no banishment tonight.

And tomorrow, the game takes another turn.

However, someone here will not make it to dawn,

because tonight, the Traitors will visit one of you.

And all the pleading in the world

will not convince them to pardon you.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Good night.

- Oh. - Oh, my God.

I don't think I've ever felt like that in my life.

Shane, I can hug-- I don't know.

I don't even know what to say.

Can I keep this?

Oh, my God. This is crazy.

This is crazy.

I've used my pardon on somebody that I actually voted for.

Come on!

But one thing I know as a New Yorker

is that I can tell when somebody's lying in my face,

and he convinced me.

Maybe he's not a Traitor.

And maybe Fruitgate is actually a thing.

I can't die, baby! Come on!

I'm hoping that I did not make a fool of myself.

It's going to be so bad if I did.

I'm shaking like a Chihuahua.

I'm feeling good. I literally owe Shane my life.

I'm sweating. I'm sweating.

I've seen baby Alan in the sky like he's there,

ready to take me to him.

And now I am back.

I'm genuinely shocked.

I understand. Listen, it was my call.

I had the pardon, you know.

Yes, you do, big man.

They thought they got me. They're not getting rid of me.

Tomica, Joe, I have your number.

And tomorrow, a Traitor will fall.

- But we need to talk. - Yeah, let's get a jury.

We need to talk.

Never saw it coming.

Victor is still in the castle.

Victor, Victor. Come here, come here.

- My boy. - Come here, come here.

You are the best.

And my fellow Traitor wrote my name on the chalkboard.

Come on, baby! We're back!

We're back! Let's go!

Let's go, let's go, let's go!

This is a lot of mess.

So I'm trying to figure out why you voted me.

I honestly meant Kriste. I am a Faithful.

No, I'm so-- I'm so sorry.

I didn't know where--I didn't know where else to turn.

That's kind of confusing to me.

There were so many other names

that Tomica could have thrown in first.

Maybe it was panic. I don't know.

I was shocked to see Shane switch.

- I was too. - I think he realized

in the moment how genuine Victor was being.

And I know it's going to be hard to, like,

separate your gut.

But I think he stood in there,

and he was as Faithful as he could possibly--

did you see his reaction for the pardon, bro?

God.

I'm glad we got to witness that.

Yeah, that was pretty cool.

What really, really made me want to pardon him--

if he's a Traitor,

why would you run around alerting people

that there's a murder in plain sight?

Hey, if I wanted to do Traitor on Traitor,

bro, I would alert everybody and look like the good guy

and get the guys that are at the turret with me

under fire by everybody else.

Does that make sense?

It's a very odd thing to come out and just,

"It's a murder in plain sight tonight, for sure."

How? How do you know?

- But he was right, though. - He was right.

I really don't think Victor is a Traitor.

I'm like, I just think the theatrics--

I can't let it go. I can't let it go.

All right, guys.

Let's go to bed.

- Tomorrow's a new day. - Tomorrow is a new day.

You are, for sure, a Faithful.

A Traitor wouldn't save.

A Traitor wouldn't have saved anybody.

Shane, I'm naming my first child after you, baby!

I am unsure

what the temperature in the turret will be.

If we turn on ourselves,

they will be able to find one of us.

There's a thunderstorm moving in.

This was bound to happen.

Somebody was going to catch something.

So we're going to have to weather this storm,

see what the right move is.

And we're going to have to stick together.

Did you say my name or did you--

I could have said your name.

I literally mess up names all the time.

I was ready to throw out Kriste.

OK, I threw you out there, and I know--

you can believe me, you cannot.

I did not think you were going to go home.

I feel like the three of us, if we keep going all in all--

- This is very true. - When we are seen together,

I knew it was going to look bad on all three of us.

Things get out of control.

We have to think smart, and right now--

- We've all got heat. - We've all got heat.

Yes, and I'll say this. Tomica, you were battling.

You were on your back foot, and you were swinging in there.

I need a plan of attack.

How big do you want to swing?

We could kill Victor tonight,

and you could say you're being set up.

But if the argument isn't there,

we're going to have to bail.

Then I'm done. What's the other move?

Is it Abby L?

She's been loud.

She's made her case on Wyatt known to everyone.

So put some heat on Wyatt.

- Mm-hmm. - I like that.

But we're losing an ally, and she's not on any of us.

I don't know.

Who's next?

I was thinking about Clyde.

And it could put some heat on Morgan.

But Victor's going to go rabid on the fact

that it's another person I'm close to,

which is a chaotic theory.

So it's between Abby L,

Victor, and Clyde.

God, this is getting real.

I know. It's so hard.

- So we're locking it in? - We're locking in.

I think it's time. Yeah.

This next move is

our most important decision of the whole game.

I can honestly say I've never had a day at work like this.

I think we just have to expect that as this continues,

we're going to get heat.

The longer this game goes on,

the more crucial the murders get.

And it is really important that we get this one right.

I got to do what I got to do to get to the end,

and I'ma make it happen.

Another morning breaks over my castle,

and soon the Faithful will learn who became

the Traitors' sixth victim.

Oh, damn. Come on.

- We're the first ones. - Oh!

Oh, my gosh.

This was on my "Traitor" bucket list.

Last night's roundtable was insane.

We finally voted Victor off,

and Shane saves him, even though Shane voted

to banish him three minutes earlier.

Surely, we can get a Traitor tonight, right?

Like, it's a numbers game.

I feel like we're on the cusp.

I just truly want to know if Victor is a Traitor or not.

I mean, I don't know where we go today.

I don't know where we go as a group.

Who do you think it is? Do you think it's Victor?

I still don't buy Fruitgate.

I don't buy Fruitgate at all.

And he's hard to judge his--

like, reactions and his demeanor, you know.

I mean, it's just-- - Yes.

It's hard to judge him.

There we go, baby. There we go.

There we go. There we go.

Yee!

What's up? Shirt is awesome.

We are here, baby.

You grabbed the bagels.

Look, I'm like, I want to see y'all,

but let me get these bagels first.

Bagels. Grab a bagel.

Victor not being banished, it's like

an 18-wheeler out of control, barreling straight for us.

- Oh, my God. - We're here.

And sadly, murdering Victor would lead directly to Tomica.

It's not going to get heat off anybody.

So my goal tonight, we got to get Victor out

just for everyone's sake,

before that 18-wheeler smashes into us.

Victor, how does it feel to be risen from the grave?

Listen, I don't know.

Coming to breakfast, I feel like

I have a new lease on life.

I'm the boy who lived.

If I'm right about Tomica, then I'm really sure about Joe.

But I am not going to let up on Tomica.

I won't give up.

What were you guys chatting about before we got in here?

Traitors are flying under the radar.

Who is doing it?

Who is able to do it?

I mean,

the clues that I think I've got are garbage.

Clearly.

Who do you think, Joe?

I mean, at this point,

Victor, I'm still on you.

No new evidence has been brought about me.

Right, but that argument works both ways.

I'm only here 'cause I'm right.

I wouldn't be here if I was wrong.

OK, that's all I'm going to say.

Bro, if Tomica walks in, I think we got it.

We just got to put Fruitgate to rest.

We just got to.

- There we go. - Hey.

- There we go. - Oh, my God.

It's getting spicy.

Good morning.

Tomica, you look beautiful. - Sup, y'all?

Trying to bring some sun.

Trying to bring some light. - You look beautiful.

Coming in today, Victor is going to be on me,

but I think that my Traitors have my back

in the castle right now, so I'm ready to go at it.

So kudos on the first powers, though.

Shane, why did you change your mind?

Like, convince me it's not Victor.

I'ma tell you why I changed my mind.

- Convince me it's not. - I changed my mind because

why would a Traitor walk around and saying

there's a murder in plain sight?

If I'm a Traitor, I'm not doing that.

That was the end of the night.

It wasn't like it was the beginning of the night.

And it could have happened in plain sight

before he was ever saying that.

- I understand. - And it could have been done.

I still think he's a Traitor.

I do.

I still think you're a Traitor, so...

No, you don't. Sorry.

Some people weren't too happy that I came back.

I've had about 23 counted votes to my name,

and I'm just saying, it's Tomica.

It's Jay.

Joe, it's you.

You want to hold votes for me?

A lot of people voted Victor.

My opinion has not changed about Victor at all.

I think Victor's the guy, and I would almost rather

eat humble pie if I'm wrong,

but I just have a gut instinct that I'm not.

Who's left?

Katie, Morgan, Clyde, Abby L.

Clyde kind of grounds me. I want him to come back in.

Abby, she said she was ready to die

to prove that I was a Traitor.

Come in.

Ooh.

It's, like, crazy.

- Come in. - You feel my heart right now?

OK.

- What did I say? - Who are we missing?

What did I say? What did I say?

- Who is it? - Abby L.

Abby. Wow. Wow.

Abby, I mean, honestly,

she played the game for real, yo.

I'm leaning Abby L.

She caused the most dissent among everybody

because she was on Wyatt.

And this we can play to our advantage.

If she was, like, not in--necessarily on to us.

So we're locking it in?

We're locking in.

"By order of the Traitors, you have been murdered.

Signed, the Traitors."

I'm really pissed off.

I knew it. It's Wyatt.

If I were Wyatt, I would have killed me, too, so I get it.

But it's been so much fun meeting everyone.

Such amazing people from such different backgrounds

that I never would have met in my normal life.

And, you know, I have a lot of data I need to analyze,

so I'll get back to that, I guess.

She was a firecracker.

Abby was grilling you.

Maybe Abby got murdered to frame you.

- Yes. - So smart.

She's the one that got me to start to pull people aside

and have conversations one-on-one.

And you still killed her. That's crazy.

Good morning, my brunching bros.

Wassup?

- Wassup? - What's up?

Yes, it was the death knell for Abby L.

What the hell?

Oh, well. - So aggressive.

Another innocent down.

Faithful, you need to fight back,

because today,

we will go straight to the roundtable.

And this time, normal service will resume.

The jury will decide.

Ta-ta.

Oh, my God.

That man is really walking around this castle

just thinking of things to do to us.

Guys, I'm on my last life, please.

Yo, Fruitgate--

Lives on.

You are not right about Fruitgate.

We could have been done with Fruitgate,

like, three days ago, but no one believes me, so...

Everyone else seems to be done with it but you.

Yeah.

Yet I'm still alive, so why wouldn't they kill me?

In this moment, I regret not murdering Victor.

A bad apple spoils a whole bunch,

and Victor is rotten.

OK, somebody needs to tell me what to do today,

because I don't have any brain cells left.

Oh.

Like, we need to have thoughts,

and then we need to move.

And we really need to, like, focus.

I really do not think Victor is a Traitor.

Victor is one of the last people

I thought I would have bonded with,

but I don't think he's a Traitor.

And I could be totally wrong.

I've been wrong on everything so far.

But I do know, you can't kill him.

The one thing that Victor and Cher have in common,

they will live forever.

When he first came for Tomica with the fruit thing,

it caught her off guard, but she was crumbling.

I don't know what we're looking for.

Like, are you supposed to be calm, cool, and collective?

Are you supposed to defend yourself?

Now, God bless,

Victor's not my favorite personality.

And that's why last night, my vote swung to him.

I feel like Victor's Fruitgate is crazy.

That's what makes me think he could be a Traitor.

Yes, a million percent.

Like, he's that confident.

I'm not that confident on anybody.

I don't know if one of y'all's lying,

both of y'all are mistaken, or whatever.

I truly feel like I'm in the middle, and I don't, like--

But here's the thing.

I didn't think you were a Traitor the first night.

- No. OK, fair enough. - Not the first night.

That's my point, is that it was the recruitment afterwards.

OK, but someone got recruited, right?

Yeah.

- I know it wasn't me. - And I know it wasn't me.

And the Traitors know it wasn't them.

But you know it wasn't you. I don't know it wasn't you!

I know, but I'm suspicious with you because

you've been coming for me, coming for me.

I do not know who the Traitors are.

And this is killing me because I'm a mom,

and I know things that I'm not supposed to know.

That's supposed to be my superpower.

But my superpowers are constipated, people.

- What's up? - May I join?

- Yeah. Come sit. - I'm on it.

What's up?

Nothing, I just want-- are you double bluffing?

- No. - OK.

Because if you're double bluffing--

That would be the craziest play in the history of plays.

I know.

So you doing it and getting away with it--

so I'm just like, I want to get a Traitor so bad.

I think we are going to get a Traitor.

I really do.

Are you and Victor on the same person?

Victor is on Tomica, like, 1,000%.

I have to look at the people who vote Victor

'cause I think he's telling the truth, bro.

And I think it's another play at getting a Faithful out.

I really do.

I'm going to follow Tomica

'cause I think Tomica is a Traitor,

and I don't want her to have time alone.

I don't care.

How are you?

I'm all right.

Victor says he's following me around.

He's like a pimple.

I do still think that it's someone young.

I agree.

I think there would definitely be somebody young up there.

We've, like, literally been banishing women.

That's all we've banished is women.

Have we even banished a guy?

Michael. We banished Michael.

- I was banished. - You were banished, OK.

But you're here.

I think Victor is very passionate about going

for Tomica, but I just don't think the Traitors' task

would be to hand someone a piece of fruit.

We're wasting a ton of time going in circles around that.

It's driving everyone nuts.

What? That's good strategy.

I'm not against you doing what you feel you need to do

because I'm Faithful.

You have, like, latched onto something

where I don't think it's healthy for us

to find the actual Traitor, unless you're the Traitor.

- Can I ask you a question? - Of course.

If Tomica goes up there and says she's a Faithful,

what are you going to do?

Cry myself to sleep.

- That's your answer? - I'll walk out.

We're gonna have to figure out who he's working with.

I'm worried about Tomica because that's my girl.

She is, like, such a role model,

but Victor seems so genuine.

I just don't want it to be Tomica.

I would be devastated if Victor's right.

Joe, what do you think is going on?

Oh, I'm so anxious.

We're focusing on one thing, that one event, really.

And that's what we're using as a barometer.

And there was so much other stuff going on.

At the end of the day, the Traitors

are going to have to turn on each other.

Whatever the money is,

they're not going to split it three ways.

Well...

- Are you following Tomica? - Yeah, he's following me.

- It's strategy. - Victor.

It's good strategy.

All right, it's not bad. It's...

I don't want to play anymore. I really don't like this.

It has hit the fan.

I genuinely thought that it'd be good that he was still here

but I--we messed up by not doing him earlier.

Right now, I'm super stressed.

I'm super stressed.

Tomica means so much to me,

but she's getting a lot of heat.

If she gets nailed, I'm in trouble.

This is the toughest spot I've been in this entire game.

It's do or die in this moment.

My cards are on the table, and I have nowhere to run.

I can literally die on this hill,

but I'm willing to risk

absolutely everything for my Faithful.

Going into this roundtable, I'm on shaky ground,

but I'm ready to get into the thick of it,

to fight.

I am very worried for Tomica,

but I think she's ready.

And if she maybe has

some more compelling points against Victor,

this could finally get Victor banished today.

Marathon.

Agincourt.

Waterloo.

Some of the most decisive battles in history

were fought early in the day.

Today is to be no different, although those armies

had one key advantage over you Faithful.

They knew who their enemies were.

Arise or be forever fallen.

Players, the floor is yours.

Why Abby L?

I think the reason they killed her is twofold.

I think, one, it was to frame Wyatt,

and they decided, she's smart.

She's not going to stop until she finds one of us.

We need to take her out now before she's onto one of us.

I think it's interesting, but I think it's Tomica.

I can't be murdered, right?

'Cause if I'm right and I'm murdered, I think--

But it gives you what?

'Cause if the Traitors killed you--

It gives me-- I don't want to say faith.

It gives me momentum.

You come back to me with fruit.

You come back to me with, I mixed up names.

But I've mixed up names 75 times in the castle.

And if you vote for me, I'm going out as a Faithful.

And you would have messed up again.

People that are lying are more prone to messing names up.

You're a very smart person. You fly.

Victor, I will say this.

It is menopause.

OK? I'm sorry. I'm going to say it.

I have been bad with names from jump.

Like, you throw menopause at me,

how am I supposed to say anything to menopause?

Read an article!

I'm like, goodness gracious.

Brain fog happens. And I'm sorry.

I don't even know what day of the week it is right now.

I'ma be honest with you.

I can tell you that I'm not offended about

my name being in her mouth, or mine and Katie's name,

but you shouldn't be.

I'm not offended, no.

Or even pay any attention to it,

is what I'm trying to say.

I've played a very different game.

Mr. Victor, if you stand up there

and let us know that all you're a Faithful,

I will indeed be crushed.

I will, and I will feel embarrassed,

but I would rather be embarrassed

after trusting my gut. - Easy for you to say.

I'm the Faithful that would be leaving.

Like, what? - That's my perspective.

That's what I have to say.

We've been going at Victor since the day we got here.

I think it's exhausting.

And yesterday when you stood up there,

you were so excited to tell everyone you're Faithful--

- I was. - And, like, it just--

I don't think you're a Traitor.

I'm going to play devil's advocate here.

Nobody's defending Tomica right now.

They can't 'cause they know it's going to be one of them.

And they can't defend each other because

if they go up there and they say they're a Traitor,

dead in the water. - First of all--

This is the first time that no one's pretending--

First of all, I think everyone

is speaking their truth,

and this is a lot smaller roundtable than we've had.

I'm just absorbing everything.

My whole game has been to be as honest

and authentic as possible,

and I feel like I've been that way.

And I vote with the way I think the game is going.

I want you to play some offense then.

Like, if it's me, who else is up there with me?

If it's you...

If it's you?

No, no, you think it's me. You voted for me five times.

If I'm not a Traitor, who else could it be?

I...

If I'm not a Traitor, who else could it be?

- If it's not a Traitor-- - If it's not me.

If it's not me, who could it be?

If it's not you, it's probably Tomica.

Just because you and Victor are going so hard at each other.

I have not even gone hard.

All I said was, I thought he got recruited.

That's it. - All of yesterday's--

That's all I've said from the beginning.

He has been coming at me with all these other things

of Fruitgate and I mixed up the name.

I think it's really interesting that

this is the first time that you're bringing up Tomica

'cause you guys have been

really defending each other a lot.

The walls are coming in.

OK, that's a lot of extra sauce.

Players.

Let's go, baby. Let's do it.

Time for talk is over.

It is now time to vote.

We will start the vote with Jay.

Who do you think is a Traitor and why?

Victor.

As a Faithful, I must believe

that there's merit in my consistency.

Morgan.

I am voting for Tomica.

It's not because of anything to do with fruit.

I think you're allowed to have an apple at midnight.

That's fine.

But I know that you would play the role

of a Traitor immaculately.

Shane.

Tomica, I voted you.

It is nothing personal.

Kriste.

Tomica, I voted you.

Tomica.

Yeah. Y'all know.

Voted for Victor.

So it's three votes for Tomica

and two votes for Victor.

Katie, who do you think is a Traitor and why?

I think there's a method for the madness,

so I voted Tomica.

Victor, who do you think is a Traitor?

I voted for Tomica.

I guess we're going to find out how crazy I am.

Abbey B.

My vote's for you, Tomica.

Clyde.

If you vote for Tomica,

she will be banished from the game.

I voted for Tomica.

I just--I don't want my personal feelings

to affect the game, and I just love you so much.

Tomica, you have been banished from the game.

Before you reveal your identity,

will the remaining players please reveal how they voted?

Ben.

Tomica.

Joe.

I voted for you, Tomica.

I hate to give Victor credit,

but he did a good job here.

And with the final vote, Wyatt.

Tomica.

Tomica, you have received the most votes

and are banished from the game.

Please come forward to the Circle of Truth.

Tomica,

before you leave my castle forever,

please reveal to us.

Are you a Faithful...

or a Traitor?

Holy [bleep].

Tomica,

are you a Faithful...

or a Traitor?

First, I want to say,

I love this game.

I've had an awesome time with every single last one of you.

But, um,

I flew my plane a little too close to the sun...

And got burned.

'Cause I'm a Traitor. - Yeah!

Let's go! Let's go!

I cannot believe they got me.

Honestly, Victor staying around sowed too many seeds.

We're getting that bag!

Holy [bleep].

That's why you kept me, baby. That's why you kept me.

Let's go! Let's go!

Oh, my God.

I came on this show to be a Traitor.

I wanted to push my limits,

but I got so much more along the way.

I learned about myself.

I learned about friendships,

and it's been a really good ride.

It's been a great ride.

I'm thankful for it.

Victory!

Victory at all costs.

Faithful, you have finally triumphed.

Plus, you added $15,000 to the prize pot.

Yes! Yes!

So tonight, I am throwing a Highland feast

to celebrate you finally...

Managing to banish a Traitor.

Eat, drink, and be merry.

- Finally! - Namaste.

Voting for Tomica hurt so much.

That was--that was good. That was good.

I've always had Tomica's back since this game started,

and it's hard to sever ties.

And I hope Tomica understands that

because I feel genuinely awful.

They should have gotten me, but I'm still here.

I'm still here.

I felt so sad for Tomica.

I hated to do that.

And by confirming Tomica, in a way,

it, in default, turns to Joe.

Oh, my God. Let's go. Let's go.

Victor is definitely a huge voice now for the Faithfuls.

He is really the Messiah of the castle.

This is going to be a very tricky game

to continue on with right now.

And I know who they all are, baby.

We're coming.

I got a Traitor.

Oh, I am not crazy! I'm not crazy.

Let's go. Let's go. - Bro. Bro. Bro.

We got it. - We got it, bro.

Oh, my God.

- Sit down, brother. - Bro.

I love you, bro. I love you.

I know you love me. I love you.

I love you.

We finally caught a traitor.

Victor's Fruitgate was actually a thing.

Thank God I pardoned Victor

because we probably would have missed this opportunity

if I didn't.

I just, like, really did not want it to be her.

Like, oh, my God. - It's a game.

We're playing a game,

so don't let it hurt your feelings.

I feel so played right now. I'm way too trusting.

I was just like, oh, my God, everyone's so lovely.

Wrong.

This really hurts, unfortunately.

You feel good?

- It feels great. - Yeah.

It feels great.

At some point, it comes for everybody, right?

So it's all about how you handle yourself.

The thing is--

So how hard are you going to come for me tomorrow?

Um...

I don't know. Pretty hard.

All right.

If I was a Traitor, I'd probably kill you, truly.

But it's going to be fun tomorrow.

Bring it on.
