What duo would you say has

It’s here, at the Château de Biron, in Dordogne,

in this smoke, everything that is most natural...

that I have invited 20 personalities

to participate in a cruel game

of lies and betrayal. A diabolical game.

Where innocent loyalists are banished

by infamous traitors every night.

Their only chance of survival:

to succeed in unmasking the traitors among them

before it’s too late.

Sorry, I meant to do a devilish laugh.

Finally, here is the 3rd season of "The Traitors,"

this twisted game that will...

drive even the wisest to lose their sanity

and twist the minds

of the sharpest. - I didn't think

that we could be fooled to this extent.

- I know it's a game, but it drives me crazy.

- Well, yes! This year,

I've decided to drive my players completely crazy.

- He's a bit sadistic, isn't he? Oh yeah.

- Oh my God. - We're going to get buried!

- Get me out of here! - We're going to eat crap.

- That's disgusting! - He's swimming! He's swimming!

- It's total paranoia. - He's a traitor.

- Dear deities of traitors,

am I going too far?

Just kidding. I have no conscience!

I'm a genius of evil!

- You're a traitor. - I'm going to smack you.

- Vote against him, just look at his face.

- That's insane.

- Are you betraying me?

- We're all lost. - Wake up!

We're being taken for fools!

- In fact, they are treacherous.

- We're not playing anymore.

- It's either her or me.

- She's not going to die.

- For real. - But damn!

- I can't take it anymore! - I have the right to yell!

But damn it!

Yes, I have the right! - Laurent, you're angry right now.

- I thought I knew everything

after going through political life,

but it's way worse here.

- Welcome to "The Traitors," welcome to this game that drives you crazy.

They're especially crazy for having accepted my invitation!

Ah, I can't wait to be able to play!

With my new guests,

20 carefully selected personalities,

used to success and honors, but will they

be up to the challenge of my cursed game?

- We're going to experience an anthropological experiment.

Here we are,

we bond, and this game might just lead us

to suspect each other, to not be fooled

by what is said. - Exactly.

- That's what makes it so exciting,

to see how we will react.

Ah, look!

- The ordeal. - No!

- It’s stopping. - It’s for you.

- They’re hitchhiking!

- Next to the ordeal!

- But thank you! - Well, you’re welcome!

We could tell you were lost in the Dordogne countryside.

- Hello! - Bonjour.

So, are you ready for the game?

- Yeah, ready!

- Is this your first time in a game?

- Of this kind?

- Yes. - Totally.

- Us too.

- We're all a bit new to this.

- How do you feel about it,

this adventure?

- Well, listen, we'll just have to see.

I can't wait to see who will show up,

- We're still a bit lost! - Aren't you wondering...

how things will go between us?

- Aren't you worried about it? - No.

- Imagine, you, you're a traitor,

- And me, I'm loyal. - So what?

It's not a big deal. Everyone will play their own game.

My name is Laurent Ruquier, and I am a host.

And I came with my partner, Hugo Manos.

- I'm a TV commentator.

We've been together for six years.

We're very close. We share a lot of things.

If he finds himself being a traitor,

I'm going to expose him in... 2 seconds flat,

I'm sure of it. On the other hand,

For him, I'm much more opaque.

- For me, lying,

it's complicated, especially with Hugo.

I have to say that it's a challenge.

Because we might have to betray each other,

But I'm up for the challenge.

- What we're here for is to have fun.

- Oh my God. - But no!

- It's Laurent Ruquier! - No way! It's his buddy!

Laurent and Hugo!

- Valérie,

are you able to spot any traitors,

given that you have been betrayed in your life? We've all been betrayed.

- A life without being betrayed just doesn't happen.

But... spotting them, I don't know how,

because we don't know each other. I don't know

if you're a real smooth talker... - I'm not a smooth talker.

- or if you're just pretending not to be one.

I'm Valérie Trierweiler.

I've been a journalist for 35 years.

I'm also known

for other reasons,

which are now far behind me.

My profession will be an advantage in this game.

I'm used to questioning people and investigating.

But if I betray someone,

it will be very difficult for me to handle.

I believe that betrayal is the worst thing in the world.

It's the worst thing. I've suffered from betrayal,

both in love and in friendships.

It's terrible. I don't betray others.

I will do everything to make it to the final and win.

Look, there's a car,

there's a car!

- What is that?

- Who are you? - It's my dad, the gangster!

- Do you know where we're going?

- Sort of.

- They gave us an address. It's a castle.

- Do you have any apprehensions? Which players

are you most worried about? Any actors?

- Yes, the actors. It's their job,

to play a role.

- Or the male politicians.

- I hope I won't have any unpleasant surprises.

- What do you want to tell us? - Do you have any names in mind?

- That would be really funny!

- We'll know right away who the traitor is, in that case!

- Are you okay?

- I'm a little scared. - Motivated

to look for the traitors?

- Yeah. I know I'm going to have fun.

I love to lie.

- Do you like to lie? - Yes. It's my job.

I am Frédérique Bel.

I am an actress. I act in a lot of popular comedies

like "Vilaine," "Camping," etc. As an actress,

I love to act, so I enjoy role-playing games.

I love bluffing and I love manipulating.

As a loyal person,

I will be a real investigator.

And as a traitor, I will be ruthless.

I will be a great liar

and I will be full of compassion for those poor loyal ones.

Woohoo!

- Who are those country bumpkins over there?

- Stop!

- Where are you going?

- TO THE CASTLE.

- Just like us. - Are you taking us with you?

- Get in! - Thank you!

Hello!

Frédérique. - Danielle.

- Romain. - Hello, Danielle.

- Nice to meet you, Danielle.

- Should we use first names?

- YES, LET'S USE FIRST NAMES. - Let's use first names.

- It's rare for Danielle to be on a first-name basis.

Usually, you have to call her "ma'am."

- Liar.

I'm Danielle, and I'm well-known

for making videos on the Internet

with my little buddy Arthur, and all these videos

get millions of views.

- Danielle is a grandmother to whom I give

experiences. She has this very endearing naïveté.

She's funny and authentic.

That's what makes our videos successful.

What are you doing? Ah, are you putting in your teeth?

- Look at the big creature

that was in my bed. What is it?

- What are you doing?

- I had something on me.

She was running fast. - But who?

- The creature. Isn’t it a cockroach?

- Yes, probably. - Oh!

- No, don’t worry, it’s an ant.

- Call the reception. I’m scared.

Loulou is like my grandson.

He’s adorable; he’s endearing.

I’m not going to be suspicious of him. I know him.

- Danielle is straightforward and authentic.

- I’m unfiltered.

Unfiltered, no makeup.

- Oh no. - She’s not faithful.

Her husband was thoroughly cuckolded.

- No way. What a fool he is!

- She can say one thing and its opposite

in two minutes. She’s hard to pin down.

This is going to be a formidable opponent.

- I’m a radar

for fakes. To all those liars,

I’m going to find you in the game.

I’m here to win.

- Château de Biron is 3 km away. - Wow!

- It’s magnificent, look!

- It’s beautiful!

- And hello! - Good morning!

- Good morning!

- Oh! Look at those pure souls,

so innocent.

This won’t last.

Welcome, everyone! Come join me.

- We’re embarking on an adventure... - Extraordinary.

- Wow, holy cow! Look at that!

- Great view. - Oh yeah.

- It’s beautiful! - It’s very beautiful.

- Welcome.

Welcome, everyone.

What an ideal group!

As talented

as it is diverse.

Actresses, actors, TV hosts,

writers, journalists,

content creators, athletes...

Oh my... I notice something.

There’s a couple of lovers.

Oh! A couple of lovers

coming to play "Traitors"!

You haven’t watched

the previous seasons. - All eyes

are already on us. - Are you talking

about Danielle and Arthur? - I’m talking about you,

Laurent and Hugo.

Valérie, how are you? - Yes.

- Yes?

- A bit anxious to know what’s going to happen.

- Compared to the crowd you usually hang out with,

this is much friendlier.

You have

almost nothing in common except the thirst for victory

and the desire to fight

to win the 50,000 euros for your association.

You’re going to experience something

extraordinary today.

A game as cruel as it is enjoyable.

The rules are simple, even childlike:

traitors, loyalists, betrayal,

friends, no more friends, depression.

- Burnouts, exits...

- Who’s going to win this game?

Traitors or loyalists?

I’m already enjoying this.

I wish you all a warm welcome.

See you soon.

I know what you’re thinking.

- Oh, it’s beautiful!

- That my guests are

too kind and friendly to betray each other.

- Whoa whoa whoa! - Think again.

I’m going to put them through

a job interview for the position of traitor.

- Oh, I love it!

- Oh, you don’t need

prestigious degrees to get it,

just an insatiable desire to deceive and lie.

Demonstration.

- Hello. - Hello, Frédérique.

Please, go ahead.

What would make...

you a good traitor?

- People love to confide in others.

To me. And then, I do fortune-telling,

since I was 9 years old.

I'm going to get my pendulum.

I've already started looking, by the way.

- What did you see?

- I saw four traitors.

- Are you capable of not having...

any scruples?

- None, none. I came to create a massacre.

Blood will be shed with tenderness.

- What a beautiful plan!

Danielle. - Yes?

- Do you want to be a traitor?

- A traitor. Well... someone who you don'r see coming.

I'm nice, but I listen everywhere.

- Do you feel like...

being a traitor?

- As soon as the traitors find out that I used to be a cop,

it's going to get hot for me, so the solution

is to be a traitor. - Ah!

What are you willing to do to win?

- I'm ready to do anything except one thing: lie.

That's what's going to be complicated. - Ouch!

Would you make a good traitor?

Your acting skills...

You laugh, you cry...

on demand.

Get angry.

- Stop! What you're doing is really pissing me off.

I don't know...

I don't know why you're... No, this is really pissing me off!

I'm tired of being here, okay? Stop. No, stop, stop.

- Sally, traitor or loyal? - Traitor.

- Try to convince me.

- You have in front of you someone who has won

public speaking contests, just that.

That is to say

that defending myself won't be a problem,

and defending my traitorous colleagues won't be a problem too.

- Dear Valérie, do you

feel capable of betraying?

- Betray my friends,

- No.

- Within the game. - Are they friends then?

- Thank you very much, Valérie. - Good!

- Hmm.

Ooh!

I have a choice this year.

The menu is rich.

Here it is,

the moment you’ve all been waiting for has arrived,

the moment when I will designate

those who will have the heavy task

to deceive, to banish loyal innocents,

I’m of course talking about

my beloved traitors, ha ha!

Their power will be immense,

the weight of the cape too,

because they must never,

ever be unmasked, because if they are,

it’s them who will be eliminated.

- That’s impressive.

- It’s solemn.

- When you discover the round table,

you already think: “We’re taking a step further

in the game.”

- When you arrive around this round table,

you think: “Wow! This is super exciting.”

I’m nervous, I’m excited, I feel like a kid.

Can’t wait to find out if I’m going to be a traitor or a loyal.

- It’s very, very impressive.

Yet, I’ve seen impressive things

in my life,

but here, at this table, you think:

“This is where you can be designated

as a potential traitor.” So you really feel the stress rising.

- Even though there are 20 players,

in the room, there’s a sense of tension,

a complete silence.

In a few moments, everything is going to change

and the traitors will officially be named.

- Well, are we going for it

or what?

- Ah, here he is.

- Welcome to the round table.

It is here and now

that everything is going to change.

In a few moments, I will name

the traitors among you. This afternoon, I spent

some time with each of you.

I asked you all the same question:

"Do you want to become

"a traitor?" That’s when I discovered

malice, manipulation,

and perversion.

What joy!

Watch closely...

because in a few moments,

you will no longer be facing the same people.

There will be traitors

among you,

but to embody this diabolical role,

many are called

but few are chosen.

I’m going to ask you

to take

the blindfolds that are in front of you

and put them on

your eyes. - Good luck!

- Good luck to everyone.

- It's tough, isn't it?

- I can't wait

to unmask you, to hunt you down.

- I will now designate

the traitors.

If you feel my hand on your shoulder,

it means you are a traitor.

If you don't feel anything,

it means you are loyal.

The traitors,

you will only discover

your accomplices tonight.

- The pulse is quickening,

my heart is beating a little faster.

Right now, I feel like a small thing

waiting to be given its destiny.

I want to be a traitor.

Touch my shoulder!

- Anxiety. Anxiety because I don't want to be a traitor.

He touches me, and at that moment,

I want to laugh, but at the same time,

my heart is racing.

I’m...

I’m trying

to regulate my breathing. Otherwise, they’ll hear me.

Suddenly, I’m given something to play with.

So now, I’m going to play a real villain.

I love it.

- I know it’s good

to be a traitor because we control

the game, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to handle it, that I won’t be

a good traitor.

I can feel it passing behind me,

and now, I feel it stop. I cross my fingers.

I cross my fingers tightly and I tell myself:

"I hope I’m not the one chosen."

I hear it leave, and then I exhale.

- Eric Antoine is touching me!

I’m officially a traitor,

but I have to hide my excitement.

So, the first rule...

She takes a breath. Breathing.

We control it, we breathe slowly and steadily.

In my head, I tell myself:

"Sally, you are loyal."

- Alright. I have my first two traitors,

but I need more.

So, who?

Hugo and Laurent shout out!

The lovebirds! Naturally, that piques my interest.

You know, I’m not one for keeping the peace

in relationships, but which one would do the trick?

Do you want to be a traitor

or be loyal? - Traitor.

When you come here, deep down, you want to be a traitor.

Because we hold our destiny in our hands.

What better way to have fun

than to be a traitor and take down the loyal ones?

- Ambitious, that Hugo, with his little angelic act!

Laurent, on the other hand,

is less daring.

Do you want to be a traitor

or loyal? - It would be fun to be a traitor,

but I’m afraid I wouldn’t be a good one.

Right now, for example, as soon as I get stressed,

my glasses fog up. But I’m neither a traitor

nor loyal.

Just imagine...

- Yeah, for sure, the fogging can be a hassle.

So, Hugo or Laurent?

Laurent or Hugo?

I love to meddle

in a couple's intimacy.

- When I hear footsteps fading away, I think:

"Okay, okay. I’m going to be loyal,

I’m going to be loyal." That feels good.

And then, the moment I feel a hand

on my shoulder...

I got really hot. At that moment, I’m having

a very, very bad time

because I don’t want to be a traitor

and I’m chosen as a traitor.

I think: "Am I going to live up to this role?"

Yikes!

Honestly, it’s a heavy burden.

- You can take off the blindfolds. - Oh, quickly!

- Can someone help me?

Because...

- Wait. You want me to... - Yes, I can’t get it off.

My little trick to buy some time,

to keep people from seeing my new look right away,

is to...

pretend to struggle with the blindfold...

Thank you.

Even though it wasn’t even that tight,

but I’m a little clever.

It worked well.

- There we go!

The traitors are among you.

How many are there?

That, I will never tell you...

never.

Observe each other

closely.

Who’s holding their breath?

Who has red cheeks?

Who’s avoiding eye contact?

- Sally,

look at me.

- Nothing has changed. Don’t act like it has.

- As soon as we take off the blindfold,

you see that everyone stays the same.

Same, everyone.

There’s no change in attitude, except for Sally.

Sally, you see her, with her afro, her little head.

I know her: very clever, playful...

Hmm, I have my doubts about her.

I say that, but I suspect everyone.

- We’re all loyal. - For now.

- That’s what we need to tell ourselves.

- I’m relieved.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

- Everyone is relieved. - Yeah, exactly.

- Sylvie, are you relieved?

- Yeah. - You see?

Yep!

- My first instinct when I take off the blindfold

is to scrutinize Laurent.

I’m focused on Laurent, I’m looking at him,

he’s not looking at me.

I can’t catch Laurent’s gaze,

he’s avoiding me.

How’s it going, Laurent?

- What? - How’s it going, Laurent?

You’ve got a bit of fog on your glasses.

- As always. - No, earlier,

you didn’t have any.

- That’s true, actually!

Of course, the first one to look at me

is Hugo, and at that moment, I’m sweating inside.

- Me, I’ve already eliminated

four of them.

- Stomy, he can't look at me

because I start laughing as soon as he talks to me.

Luckily,

Stomy puts on a show. That’s what

saves me because very quickly,

people accuse others

of being traitors, and there, I’m doing pretty well,

but it’s a little moment of anxiety.

It’s stressful. Too stressful.

- Danielle, which shoulder did he touch?

- I won’t say anything at all.

I wanted to be a traitor, you know.

That would have been funny.

I’m a bit disappointed. Well, I’m loyal,

just like in real life, you know.

- Valérie suddenly seems awake.

- Well, yes, I slept.

- Jean-Christophe,

he’s like a statue.

- He... doesn’t budge.

Can you hear us?

- He’s totally sticking his hands out.

He’s holding his hands like that,

and he just stays like that. I’m thinking, “If you’re a traitor,

“you’re playing badly, my friend.”

She yawns extravagantly.

- Are you okay?

- I’m fine. - Because you were yawning.

- Well... I’m relieved too. - No, but Hugo,

Frédérique,

she’s the perfect traitor.

Perfect!

- Why? - From the little we’ve done together,

I think we have very opposite personalities.

We’re really...

You’re over there, and I’m over here.

That’s why I’m convinced

that Eric Antoine, with all his cunning, would make

one of us a traitor. It’s not me...

- Okay... - So, it’s Frédérique.

- My God, what a betrayal!

I’m disappointed.

Romain attacks me. Not for a second

did I think he would do it in the first round.

I found it unfair. His reasoning was terrible.

At the same time, he’s not completely wrong

since he was right.

So, well,

he’s a potential enemy, you know. He’s dangerous, yeah.

- Tonight, at the traitors' council,

the traitors will banish one loyal

permanently, but that’s not all.

Tonight, they will consult

and choose the loyal

who, in their opinion, has

the best qualities to become

a traitor, who will automatically

switch sides

and join the traitors...

tonight.

- Oh, tonight?

- At the traitors' council, oh yes, okay.

- There’s still a chance

for me to become a traitor,

since Eric is explaining to us

that the traitors will choose

a new member for their evil team.

I’m thinking:

“It should be me. I want to be chosen.”

- The crazy thing is that tonight, a loyal will be turned

into a traitor. I’m thinking:

“Great, I have a second chance

“to get in. It’s going to be me.”

I want to be a traitor.

- Let the hunt begin.

- I have no idea who or how many

the other traitors are. That’s really

the whole point of this game: we’re in total confusion.

We’re thinking: “Who are the others?

“I’m a traitor, but who are the others?”

We don’t know.

- In any case, know this, traitors,

you’re very good. - Yeah, yeah.

- Traitors, you’re very good. - Laurent Ruquier is very good

at being a traitor. - Danielle, you’re great at being a traitor.

- Oh really? - Oh? Oh?

Ha, ha, ha, ha!

- Do you feel

that excitement in the air?

It’s normal, the hunt for traitors

is on! From now on, the loyal

will have only one goal: to unmask the traitors

before they get banished.

A ruthless struggle has just begun.

I’m practically jumping for joy!

A fierce joy, of course.

But first, let’s see

how my brand-new traitors are managing

to avoid raising suspicions.

- Romain attacked me in the first round

for misleading reasons.

I thought, “I need to defend myself.

I absolutely must clear my name.”

I thought, “Hey,

I’ll play the little...

‘frightened lamb.’”

I’m really disappointed.

I found your speech very violent.

It shocked me. There you go.

- Well, first of all, it’s a game.

So, there’s no violence. That means you’re forming

an image of me, even though we don’t know each other.

- No, but it’s a disappointment because...

I hitchhiked with you. It’s silly, but...

- That doesn’t create bonds,

for me. We’re in a game.

- Yes, but for me, it does create bonds.

- I thought that between the two of us,

there would be a traitor. By deduction,

since I’m not one, I thought, “She must be.”

But you can prove to me, these days,

that you’re not and all that. - Of course, of course.

- My experience as a cop tells me

that when people are extremely hurt,

it’s because there’s a sense of injustice.

So, I think:

“Maybe she’s not a traitor

because she felt unjustly accused,

like a loyal would.”

I have nothing against you, I like you.

I’m going to slide towards other people...

- Oh, go ahead and slide!

- What talent,

Frédérique has managed to turn

the situation around. Without wanting to flatter myself,

I wonder if I didn’t choose the most dangerous of the traitors.

Unless it’s Sally?

- Girl, do you have any “targets”?

- It’s silly, but I can’t stop thinking about this idea:

Two duos? - Yeah, for sure.

- There’s the duo of Laurent and Hugo,

the duo of Danielle and Arthur.

My name is Sally,

better known on social media as Crazy Sally.

My passion is really making impactful videos

to change mindsets

and bring visibility to lesser-known causes,

because I have a sense of justice.

Indeed, I completed a master’s degree in criminal law

and criminology. I think a lot,

I’m a big player

and I intend to use my persuasive skills

for the forces of evil, to change things up a bit.

Routine is boring; I want to play.

What duo would you say has

the highest chance of having a traitor?

I want to be loyal,

to seek out the traitors with them.

I’m really living my role as a loyal, I believe in it,

I am loyal.

- You, Sally, who are you thinking of?

- My strategy

will be to sort people by dynamics.

I think there will definitely be a traitor

who is very cute, sweet, very charming.

In fact, you wouldn’t suspect them at all.

- Hm-hm.

- And then you’ll definitely have a crazy investigator.

- It’s obvious, someone charismatic.

And the rest is the gray area where we don’t know.

But for the... honestly...

- That’s such a good analysis, that’s the game.

The first step is to find the traitors. I’m focused

and, lacking total humility,

I’m sure I can read the energy of each person.

For me, I have no doubt, Sally is not a traitor.

- Oh, Sally is perfect,

she is too. That ease,

that naturalness with which she fooled Hugo.

On the other hand,

my third apprentice traitor,

might be less comfortable with his loyal boyfriend.

- I’m terrified

of being a traitor.

I feel like it’s written

on my face.

The worst thing I dread is a face-to-face with Hugo

because he knows me inside and out.

- Laurent! Are you coming with me

to the billiard room? - Of course.

- I’m going to see what’s happening on the other side.

- Ah, everyone is leaving.

- Julie is asking us to join her at the billiard table,

so we’re going.

For now,

I’ll stay with the group

to keep my distance

and avoid Hugo. - Speaking of Hugo,

do you want to know if I think he’s a traitor?

I didn’t detect anything.

- Oh, really? - No, I didn’t detect anything.

Let me tell you,

when we play, I never detect

when he’s lying. - Oh, really?

- But he can read me.

- We can read you

like a book. - More or less, yes.

I realize that I’m not really suspected,

so aside from this apprehension of facing Hugo,

I’m starting to think that, after all,

phew, breathe, I can step into this role of the traitor

even if I don’t like it,

I can, little by little, have some fun.

- How do you feel about it, Laurent?

- For now, we’re not talking.

But I’m going to go talk to him

alone, right now.

Laurent?

(Where is he?)

- And then, of course,

when Hugo asks me, "Come, I want to talk to you."

I think, "No way!"

That’s all that scares me.

(- We need to be sure that no one hears us.)

(I know perfectly well that you’re a traitor.)

(- Oh no, not me...) (- Yes, yes.

(No need to... stop, I know it.)

- Ah, I'm falling apart.

I think to myself:

"Is he bluffing? Does he really know?"

I don’t know how to react.

I want you to explain to me why you think that...

(- Because I see you.) - What?

- I see you.

- Well, you’re mistaken, no, no, I swear.

No, you’re wrong.

- Look at me. - I'm looking at you.

- Tonight,

listen to me, when you choose...

a new traitor.

You convince

the others to choose me to join the traitors.

- But aren’t you saying that because you’re a traitor?

- No, that doesn’t make sense.

- Yes, I’m telling you,

your strategy is to make me believe that you’re loyal.

Right now, I’m thinking of only one thing: defending myself.

But I’m not handling this well,

I’m really, really struggling with this confrontation.

- For now, I’m defending you,

you can do whatever you want with that.

Did you understand what I said? - Very well.

- I have my guy lying to me straight to my face,

but I don’t hold it against him; it’s his role anyway,

so I have no qualms about it.

I’m not giving him a choice.

If he doesn’t choose me,

I’ll expose him and tell everyone:

"I think he’s a traitor."

- Will Hugo dare to follow through on his threat?

Will Laurent be the traitor who will take the throne?

The shortest one in history? Will their relationship survive it?

Oh, admit it, all of this is wildly exciting!

But patience,

because first, they will have to overcome

the first challenge of this new season.

Yes, I remind you that both traitors and loyalists

have only one goal:

"to win the jackpot of 50,000 euros"

which they will donate to the charity of their choice.

They will have to fill this jackpot

by participating in challenges.

Challenges that are, how should I put it, grueling...

- Oh, we're going to get buried.

- That's horrible.

- Wow!

- Painful...

- It's torture! - So tough!

- Oh my God.

- I have a heart condition!

- This is crap!

- This is disgusting!

- Who's going to set me free?

- But who could help them find a traitor or two?

It’s worth a little suffering, right?

If they only knew...

- What is this thing?

- Wow, what is that?

- Those are torture chairs!

- They’re electric.

- No way, that’s super creepy!

- Oh wow, that’s horrible, I love it!

- Ah, electric chairs.

I see electric chairs,

in the middle of the village,

everything’s fine, classic Eric Antoine,

we weren’t expecting anything less, right?

Of course, we’re not going to get

electrocuted, I can’t believe that!

- Not for a second.

- Doesn’t that scare you when you see that?

- Well, no, it doesn’t actually send out any electricity.

- No way.

- Dear traitors,

dear loyal ones, welcome

to this first challenge.

I’ve named this challenge,

because of the electricity,

"The challenge

that drives you crazy."

- It’s a sadistic game! Just look, you’re laughing.

- For this game, you will be

competing in teams.

- Okay. - At stake,

5,000 euros...

- OH! - For you, today.

But more importantly, for the winners,

access to the antechamber

and, for one of the players,

an amulet that will protect you from being banished by the traitors.

- That’s good. - That’s great.

- I’m loyal, and I really want

to win the amulet

for immunity against the traitors.

- For this first challenge,

there will be two teams,

the blues on one side, the reds on the other.

In each team,

five players will sit on chairs.

- A little jolt?

- Meanwhile, the other five will have to answer riddles.

If they cut the wire corresponding to the correct answer,

they score a point and electrocute the opposing team.

If they get it wrong, no point,

but more importantly, they electrocute their own team!

Ouch, that’s going to hurt!

- What a sadist.

- I wish you good luck.

Let's hope the current...

flows between you...

(Excellent!)

And we’re starting right away!

With a riddle for the newbies.

Laly, Bruno,

Discover the first riddle.

What is the missing first name in this pyramid?

Laly, Frédérique, Sylvie, or Danielle?

Laly and Bruno, you have 45 seconds to figure it out.

- How were they sitting at the table?

- Ah! - How were they sitting?

- The amulet, I really want to win it,

so I’m going to fully commit to the game,

a logic game that’s quite simple.

I want to have the right answer so I don’t look like a fool.

No, wait, it’s the number of things, one, two, three...

- And then he has a brilliant idea,

he counts the number of letters in the names.

It’s something we do in logic games,

and it’s the only thing I haven’t done.

- Stop! What is your answer? What color

is the correct one?

- We think the correct answer is the black thread.

- The black corresponds to Sylvie.

So, did Bruno and Laly

find the right answer?

To find out, they will have to cut

the black thread and pull the lever down.

If they’re wrong,

it will be their team, the blues,

that will receive the shock.

- Oh my! - It’s time.

- If they’re right, it will be

their opponents, the reds, who will be electrocuted.

- I feel sick. - Oh, wow!

- I’m still stressed.

I keep telling myself:

they’re not going to electrocute us! It’s a bluff. I’m not going to get

an electric shock.

- A bluff, really? That’s not my style, though!

And now,

I’m going to ask you, please,

to pull the lever down.

Take your time, Laly.

- My hands are sweaty!

- I really like you all, you know.

The reds are screaming.

- Oh, wow!

- This can’t be happening!

It’s torture!

I just got... electrocuted!

It was a real electric shock they sent us.

But they’re crazy!

- No, come on, I’m not completely crazy!

The shock they received is equivalent

to that from a muscle stimulation device.

It’s not harmful! They’re just

a bit on edge, my little players...

It’s a good answer,

you got it: the reds got their punishment!

Indeed, "Sylvie" is the correct answer

because, in this line,

all the names contain six letters.

Now it’s the reds’ turn,

with Julie and Frédérique who will try to solve the second riddle.

Go.

Which one is the odd one out among the four?

The head, the knife,

the owl, or the trumpet?

Goodness gracious! Now that’s a riddle.

- So... The trumpet...

Uh, the owl...

What’s the common point between death...

- "Doesn’t belong"... Well, the trumpet.

The trumpet? - No, I think it’s the night.

Death is the night,

the knife and the owl, it’s the night...

In my opinion, it’s the trumpet.

It’s yellow. We got it! - We got it!

- OH NO!

- Come on, girls!

- Julie, what do you think is the right answer?

- The yellow one, Mr. Eric!

- Please, cut the yellow thread.

Why the yellow thread? Can you explain?

- It relates to the game.

Death is part of the game because we...

We "kill" people. - Like a skull, you know.

- The knife, we kill people. That’s it.

The owl, the night. But the trumpet...

- Has nothing to do with it.

Go ahead!

Pull the lever down.

If Julie and Frédérique are right, their red team

will be spared, and the blues will receive the shock.

If they’re wrong,

it will be their red teammates

who will be electrocuted!

- Come on, send it!

Send it! - It’s okay, go for it!

- They’re so cute, they’re ready to take a hit!

- Oh, thank you! - Ready?

The reds are screaming.

- I hope you don’t have sore feet, too.

The last thing we need is for you to have blisters!

Julie, Frédérique, you don’t have the right

answer.

The correct answer was "knife" because:

"head," "owl," and "trumpet" rhyme (in French), but "knife" doesn’t.

- Sorry, you know. - Sorry.

- The reds are falling behind.

The blues are leading the game, but everything can change now

with my ultimate question, double or nothing, that the teams

will play face to face.

The first to give the correct answer wins the game.

It's Carla and Arthur on the blue team.

And Frédérique and Jean-Christophe for the reds, in the running.

- We’ve got this!

- Good luck,

the reds.

Here is a sequence of numbers.

And symbols.

What words do they correspond to?

("Two," "eleven," "three," "one," "equals," "seven." Damn...)

("Loyal"...)

(-The blue team, "doubts." Black, "chair"...)

(-How many loyal ones are there?)

(-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6...)

(There are...)

(It depends.) - (I don’t know, it’s weird.)

(-We don’t understand anything at all.)

(-Wait, if...)

- Damn, it’s math!

- Is it math? We're in trouble! We're in trouble!

I have the feeling...

that we are a team...

a bit "crazy artists."

We're not necessarily the best at math,

the most logical ones...

(-What does that mean?)

(I don’t understand the question.)

With numbers... I'm not good at math.

I'm lost!

Should we give it a try?

Should we try something?

- If you're in doubt, let it go; they have a 1 in 4 chance.

(-"Loyal," maybe.)

(No. "11," "chair"?

(No, there are 10 chairs.)

- It's tough. - By chance?

- NO!

- As long as they haven't found it, you can...

Think it over, so go ahead.

- I'm looking for a logic. - That's what I'm doing; I'm counting.

(The number is 7, anyway. What is "7 of"?)

- "Chair," no.

"Traitors," no. - No.

- "Doubts"?

- And there are no "chairs."

- "Doubts," then? - It's "doubts."

We might think we have it.

They exclaim.

- What percentage? - Sure?

- 90%. - Go for it.

- Okay, raise your hand. - Bold move.

- Which color of wire are you going to cut?

- I think it's the blue wire.

- The blue wire corresponds to the word "doubts."

If that's the right answer,

it will allow Carla's team, the blues,

to escape electrocution

and win the challenge.

The reds, on the other hand, will take their third shock!

- No!

- The one too many?

Lower the lever.

- Wow!

- We love you!

- I feel like we're going to take a hit.

- It's for us...

- The team doesn't trust me.

Everyone is thinking: "We're going to get shocked!"

- Good luck.

- Wait, no, I'm scared! I'm scared! I'm scared!

- Go for it!

- It's us again,

but why?

- We won! - We're too good!

I'm proud of us.

Oh yeah! Carla's really got it together!

- Carla's just lucky, that's all.

She answered well, but... she reasoned poorly.

To form the word "doubts,"

you actually needed to take the first letter

of each number and symbol.

D for "two," O for "eleven,"

U for "one," T for "three,"

E for "equals," and S for "seven."

"D-O-U-B-T-S."

Carla, you found

the correct answer,

but without fully understanding it. Well done. - Thank you!

- Incredible!

- Carla, you are our lucky charm.

- I'm happy because I'm helping my team win,

and I'm giving them a chance to get the amulet.

- Congratulations to everyone, already.

You have won 10 gold bars

for the shared pot.

Congratulations, that's 5000 euros

for the charities. And well done to the blues,

because one of you will soon retrieve

an amulet that will protect you from being banished

by the traitors. Congratulations. - That's cool!

- Victory! Yes!

We have access to the antechamber, I'm so happy!

I want to shout: We're in the finals!

So happy!

- Hehe, no! The finals aren't happening just yet!

There will be many, many other challenges before...

Back at the castle,

the winners will be able to access

the antechamber where the amulet is hidden.

Of immunity. It protects whoever finds it.

Against the banishment of traitors.

Starting tonight, they will hold on,

in secret, their first council and will eliminate the loyal one.

The most threatening to their cover...

Which of the 10 winners will get their hands on the unique amulet?

Who is hiding in one of these lockers?

If it's a loyal one, they will be immune to the banishment of traitors.

But if it's a traitor, they will have

full power to banish any loyal person!

So, who got the amulet?

A mystery!

But for now, it’s the traitors who are

in danger. They don’t know each other.

Not yet, they don’t know who their allies are, and they can never

let their guard down

because the loyal ones are hunting them,

relentlessly...

- I’m stepping back, I’m observing them,

I’m watching their hands, their evasive glances,

the forced laughter...

There are little things

that keep running through my mind, there are people who...

I caught two people who have tics,

when I arrive,

when we shake things up a bit.

- Stomy starts

to stare at me...

a little too much!

Alert! Sound the alarm!

Stomy is the only person who knows me,

so be careful, at any moment, I could get

get caught.

- Tell us who. - I can't.

- WHY NOT?

- To make enemies? "Stomy said that

about you! And pss-pss-pss!" - He mimicked

the hood!

- No, I’m not saying anything! We still don’t know who’s who.

Hi, it’s...

Stomy Bugsy! You discovered me

in the 90s with my group, Ministère AMER,

and especially with my solo career with my hit...

But I’m also

an actor. I love competition.

This game is for me.

My goal, after all, is to expose the traitors.

To unmask them.

We’ll get you!

We’ll get you.

- The loyal ones are watching for the slightest misstep.

Julie Ferrier is on the path

of war and shooting at everything.

- Ah! - Ah!

- A traitor!

But you, as traitors,

how do you feel?

- And you? - Well, me,

I’m loyal, you can tell! - Well, I don’t know...

- I provoke,

I preach falsehoods to uncover the truth and identify the traitors!

That guy is a traitor, that’s for sure. - For sure!

- Ah! There it is!

- But that’s for sure!

- I go from person to person. As soon as I have some information, I share it.

When I talk to people,

you come back too often. - Oh really?

- If it scares them,

if it unsettles the traitors, I’ll see

if there are any changes in their behavior...

My name is Julie Ferrier and I’m an actress.

A comedian too, apparently.

I’ve participated in several films,

about 70 in 15 years,

so in my roles, I’ve been able to play

a cop, a vampire, a femme fatale...

It’s true that I’m sometimes called the chameleon woman.

I’m going to make use of all that,

and my brain too,

as a strategist, to go as far as possible.

As an investigator,

loyal, I’ll be able to...

eliminate each traitor one by one.

Just like that, tap, tap, tap...

Get to the finale

and for once, let it be a loyal player who wins this game!

Someone is giving me

a bit of trouble, it’s...

Frédérique Bel.

"The Red Bel," there... Phew! Here we go!

I can’t say why.

- Julie is scary because she’s into the investigation.

She’s a real player.

She’s searching. And when you search, you find.

- We’re especially likely to find a traitor in her path...

Hugo, on the other hand,

has already spotted one:

his partner, Laurent.

He asked him to recruit him tonight

as a new traitor. - Hugo?

Laurent, you...

- I’ve observed him, I took him aside...

- Is he distant?

- A bit, but I find him rather at ease.

If he were chosen,

I would feel it.

It’s electric. - OK.

- I’m protecting

Laurent because I’m convinced

that I’m going to be chosen as a traitor!

- Are you vouching for Laurent Ruquier?

- 85%, but it’s such a crazy game that...

As the day goes on,

I have real doubts and I think to myself:

if he doesn’t choose me to join

the traitors, it means he’s loyal,

and what I imagined to be two wicked traitors

could become two lovely loyalists

moving forward hand in hand.

Unless...

the traitors recruited him during the night,

and then... then... I’ll go crazy!

(This can’t be happening!)

- I warned you that this game would drive them crazy

but I didn’t think

it would happen so quickly.

Come on, it’s time for my little lambs

to return to the fold.

The traitors will now act secretly!

It’s midnight,

and all the lights in the castle

are off. The loyalists are sleeping soundly

while three shadows slip into the night...

They are the traitors,

on their way to their first council...

- Honestly, I’m starting

to realize the responsibilities I have

as a traitor from the moment I put on the cloak,

when I step into my role, because

I realize that, here we are,

in the real game. We’re going to have to eliminate people.

I am officially... a traitor.

- The adrenaline is rising, just like that! It’s a responsibility,

a burden!

I want to rise to the occasion,

I want to be a traitor,

I want to take them all out! It’s beautiful, I love the idea...

- It’s a pressure,

being a traitor! I’m sweating inside and I can’t wait

to find out who the

other traitors are. - Of course,

they’re nervous because tonight,

they’re finally going to reveal themselves. A moment

so emotional!

- Oh!

- But I wouldn’t have bet... But...

- Hi there! - She’s the worst!

Oh!

In any case,

I wouldn’t have bet on you at all!

- Hee hee hee!

The little troublemakers!

- The little troublemakers! Ha ha ha!

- I see two women, charming, pretty, unsuspected!

Frédérique Bel, a bit more than Sally.

The real big surprise is Sally.

Formidable!

- I wouldn’t have bet on you.

- Yeah.

- You’re doing great. - Really?

Seriously? - I promise you, no.

- Oh, pfff... This is too hard!

- In any case,

you’re hiding your cards! - Yes, really!

- But OMG! Laurent

and Frédérique!

So as for Frédérique, my dear,

quite a few people suspected you,

so I’m not shocked to see you, but Laurent!

He’s really very good.

I would have never guessed!

What a dream team...

that we’re going to expand.

- Good evening, dear traitorous friends.

- Good evening! - Good evening, dear game master!

- Ah, what a pleasure!

My traitors!

It’s so nice to be among wicked people!

And now, let’s get down

to serious matters... - Alright.

- Two missions. - Oh!

- The first:

banish your first...

loyal one. (-Okay.)

- Awesome!

- The second,

appoint... a 4th traitor.

A loyal one will wake up tomorrow morning

in the position of a traitor. Be careful,

they won’t join you until tomorrow evening, at the next council.

- Alright.

- Choose wisely.

- Thank you, master.

- Have a good night, see you soon.

So, who will they banish?

Who will they recruit?

The choice is looking tough.

- Machiavelli said:

"Be close to your friends

"but be even closer to your enemies."

I’m really scared of Romain.

He’s a good investigator, he found me right away!

- I thought that, between the two of us, there would be

a traitor, so by elimination, since I’m not one,

I figured: she’s the traitor.

- It’s true, he caught you red-handed!

- If I could recruit someone, I’d take Romain, because he’s

incredibly smart, that guy!

Otherwise, we’ll have to get rid of him

before he becomes too dangerous...

- That’s true. But for me, Stomy...

He’s my...

- Favorite?

- My favorite enemy!

I feel like he knows I’m a traitor,

because he knows me...

- Is he on your case? - He’s on my case, I can feel it.

- Sally, look at me?

- Oh no, well, I...

Stomy, my guy, for sure,

would be an excellent recruit.

Or maybe it’s time to banish him

because he’s formidable!

- I’d want to say:

Julie.

- That’s a very good idea.

She’s dangerous!

- Ah! - Ah!

- A traitor!

- She’s a good player.

- She investigates.

- Julie could be a good idea.

- I admit the choice is... is difficult.

We’re hesitating between 3 names. I agree with the girls, but...

it’s Hugo, my problem.

I’m really stuck.

Hugo told me: "I know you’re

"the traitor."

We were alone at that moment.

(-I know you’re a traitor.

(So tonight, when you choose

(a new traitor, you’re going to convince

(the others to choose me.)

- He told me: "For now, I’m defending you 100%,

"but you have to name me traitor tonight.

"Otherwise..." - Oh no...

- What’s with this pressure? Oh no!

No blackmail!

If my partner gives me an ultimatum,

I’d kick him out.

- And do you think

that Hugo would be capable, if we don’t name him traitor,

of staging a comeback against you?

- No, I don’t think so.

I don’t think it’s necessarily a good idea,

that Hugo is with us, because, for now,

he defends me, and I think

that it’s going to last for a while.

- So who, then, between Romain, Stomy, or Julie

will be banned after tonight?

And who will put on the fourth cape?

- Traitors, to the end? - To the end.

- I’m afraid so.

- To us the victory and let’s take them all out!

- Good evening.

You are the fourth traitor.

Sweet dreams!
