16 strangers from all walks of
life are living in this iconic
London tower.

Some seized power
and are the Rulers at the top.

The rest were sent to
the basement...

Lift falling.

..living a life of hard labour
as Grafters...

SCREAMING
Oh!

..and they're all battling
to win up to £100,000.

Previously, rivalries deepened...

Who the fuck said I'm insecure?
Jeff.

Just to let you know, I appreciate
your insecurity comment a lot.



He has shat all over me.
He is a waste of space.

..and a new Ruler was crowned.

The Grafter that will rise
to power is Rossi.

LIFT: Rossi now has the power
to make Moses a Ruler, too.

Tonight, two new arrivals
heat things up...

Bringing in a little pepper!

LIFT: Work shift begins.

SCREAMING

I've been fucking stung by one!

..the Rulers approach melting
point...

Who would I prefer to go? James.

It will come back and bite him,
watch these lips.

..and the red room erupts.

I felt a Judas Iscariot moment.



That, for me, is a snake.

Jeff, you're a fucking parasite.

The gap between the top and bottom
has never been closer.

This is Rise And Fall.

The Rulers are on their way back
to the penthouse,

but they're about to get one of
those trademark

Rise and Fall shocks.

Rossi's not even out of his
Grafter gear

and he already has
a couple of bombs to drop.

Hey, guys. How was the meeting?

Opened the lift, Moses is sitting
down.

Didn't like it. Massive, massive
spanner in the works.

I've had to make a decision.

I've chosen Moses to become
a Ruler.

My mouth is on the floor.

I've had to choose a Ruler

to fall and become a Grafter.

It's overwhelming.
All of this is overwhelming.

The whole experience
is overwhelming.

Have you already made the decision?

The Ruler who I've chosen to fall
and become a Grafter is...

..Matt.

I knew he was going to send me down

because he wouldn't make eye contact
with me, which is fine.

It saves me from being eliminated,
doesn't it?

I think it's only fair.

You've done so much up here

and they need someone who's really,

really got a kind heart. And I think
I know you have.

I'm going to go down there.
I'll give 100%.

Push in the tasks
cos I don't fucking break easy.

Yeah. So, push me. Yeah.

Obviously we were shocked at
Rossi's decision.

Not too sure Moses is much of a team
player, to be fair.

I feel like he'd happily chuck

anyone under the bus
to save himself.

LIFT: Attention, please.

Would Matt enter
the lift immediately.

Go smash it, Matt.
Go smash it, Matt.

You've killed it,
you're still in the game!

See you later. Good luck, bruv.

We agreed to keep Rossi as
a Ruler in the penthouse

and Rossi thanked me by sending me
down to the basement.

So, thanks, Rossi.

LIFT: Lift falling.

Guys, lift! Lift.

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Come on then, open those doors.

I can't even look.

Matt! Oh!

Hello, everybody. How are
we all doing?

Oh, what a bloody night.
Are you OK? Hi, Matt!

No way.

I'm just shocked,
completely shocked.

There are finally no original
Rulers left in

the penthouse.
As the original Grafters,

our firm primary goal was
to get rid of all of

the original Rulers
and we did just that.

Oh, fucking hell.
Look at it in here!

I know, right. Hello, mate. How are
you doing?

You're doing a cracking job,
you really are.

How are you, mate? I'm all right,
how are you?

Yeah, good to see you. Hello, again.
Hey.

Look who's back!
Here comes trouble.

Ah, Matt walks out.

Matt flipped on me
and voted me out. Ah, my God.

Fucking hell.
You look stunning. Do I?

I won't in a minute.

Shall I give you a tour of your
humble abode? Please.

I can't have a cup of tea or coffee?
That's the tour. No, none of that.

I can actually feel myself
relaxing, cos

the pressure's off.
Ain't that really weird and bizarre?

I feel... I feel so relaxed.

Up there, it was so difficult
to relax.

Yeah, wait till you try out your new
bed, Matt, and get back to me.

Why is it so tense up here?
I don't understand.

It's always like this up here.
It's not the same.

You never know what's coming next.

There is a lot of tension.

You can't tell who you can trust.

It's a really, really tough vibe
up here.

He's going to try and run the roost.
He won't.

Everyone deserves
a chance up here, right?

You can tell he's a selfish cunt,
he's up here for himself.

The dynamics, it is seriously going
to... Massively change.

Technically, we can all work
together and then we off Moses.

Yeah, and then whoever comes through
that lift,

if they're any way,
or shape or form,

in any alliance with Moses,

they cannot come into
this penthouse.

You've been here ten minutes
and you're causing chaos, mate.

That's me, in't it?

It's not in my script that

Moses stays in that penthouse
tonight. It's not in my script.

Jeff, him and Moses,
they did grow quite close downstairs

and we can't have them making
alliance. He won't be here for long.

Wow. Nothing but chill vibes in that
penthouse, as per.

Do you know what's
so crazy about this? What?

Even as little as the shoes that
we're wearing.

Taking this off, I feel like my life
is changing. Yeah.

This is my dream way of living.
I want to live like this.

I've never appreciated
the smallest things in life,

ever until this moment.

Oh, my God. Goodnight, guys.

# Rock-a-bye-baby... #

LAUGHTER

Well, fuck you, no lullaby tonight
then! Go away, Jeff!

Hey, calm down, Jeff!

Welcome, Matt. Thank you, Eddy.

Welcome. Night, team. Goodnight,
guys. Goodnight, everyone!

Goodnight, everyone.
Goodnight, all.

It's been a big week for the UK,

a family of Eurasian beavers
has been released on

an estate in Stafford,

and it's time for our very own busy
little beavers to get out of bed.

ALARM BLARES

LIFT: Attention, please.

The prize fund currently stands
at £53,000.

Tonight, one Ruler will be
eliminated from the game.

The new Rulers are immune from
elimination but can still vote.

It's either Connor or
Jeff tonight.

It has to be Connor.
It has to be Connor.

It can't be Jeff. That would be
immoral, like it would be

completely unjust. He's not done
anything.

Quite simply, Connor has to go.

If he doesn't go,

there's something seriously,
seriously wrong.

So, how's your first morning?
Obviously, the conditions are what

they are really, aren't they? You've
got to make the most of them.

One thing that I recognised
immediately was how relaxed I felt.

You appreciate what you have,

like the water is actually
very nice.

Tasty. Very good water, isn't it?
Yeah. It's amazing water.

Delicious water.

I'm looking forward to breakfast,
I think.

Yeah, I've got a sore neck
this morning

because I usually sleep
with two pillows.

Yeah, the conditions are...

..going to probably get some
taking used to.

I grew up on a council estate in
the East End of London.

Upstairs didn't feel normal
to me. It didn't...

I didn't... I felt like a bit of
a fraud upstairs.

Yeah.

I like that word, Matt.

Fraud? Yeah.

That's interesting.

What do you want to talk to me
about?

Really? Big time.

Basically, he's just told me
the Grafters are fucking...

Connor. With him.

You're not going to go
for Connor, though?

He's going to have to if that's what
the Grafters want.

But you didn't go for him.

Yeah, I changed my mind last night,
to be fair.

I changed it to Cheryl cos I thought
she was ready to go.

So, now it's back to me again?
Well, no, we're working it out.

Do you know what? I can't deal with
the indecisiveness.

Just get rid of me. It's not
my decision.

If there's three Grafters and two.
I don't care any more.

I'm ready to go. Don't be like
that, Connor. No.

Because I can't deal with,
"Oh, they want you to go."

They want me to go, I can't be
bothered.

I can't be bothered with it now.

Jack, he's been so indecisive
with what he wants to do.

One minute he wants to vote me off,
then he's voting Cheryl,

then he wanted to vote Jeff off,

and now he wants to vote me off,
like it makes no sense.

My choice is going to stay the same
anyway, so don't worry.

My choice is staying the same
as well,

but then there's going to be
three that ain't.

I'll do what's right in the end,
anyway. I'm my own person.

Rossi's got a good heart.
I think he's a really nice guy,

very empathetic.
I just hope he finds that backbone.

Connor is not a happy man,
but Eddy is because

with Matt in the basement,

he now has another person
to talk to about bread.

This will make probably about 12
decent-sized bread rolls,

but there's only seven people at
the moment

but I'll do it all anyway.
So, right?

Mix? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Eddy, you didn't give me this
treatment.

Sophie had to teach me as well.
I respect you too much to see you in

the kitchen and I like to cook
for you. Yeah.

Aw. Oh, wait, you've got flour,
yep, yep.

Oh, it's too late.

No, no, no!

No! Look at the state of me now.

LIFT: Lift falling.

What? What?

No, no, no, no! Oh!

I've got fucking flour on my hands.

Oh, my gosh.

SCREAMING

My name is Joas.
I work in marketing.

I'm very feisty.

I know what I want
and I know what I want to get.

I'm a little dramatic.
As a Latin person,

I've got this fire,

so people need to be prepared
for me.

What's your name?
OK, my name is Joas

and I'm from Brazil, but I've been
living in the UK

for like the past ten years.
Oh, nice!

So, yeah. Bringing a little bit of
flavour to this place!

And I'm Sam. I'm Guinean,
so I'm bringing a little pepper.

LAUGHTER

You're welcome!

I think it's very important
to be a black female leader.

You don't have to be a superhero,

you just have to be yourself
and know what you stand for

and go for it.

I've not come here for no reason.
I want to win.

What the heck are you doing?

Making bread, that's what I'm doing.
Oh, OK, good, cos I'm hungry!

Really? Yes.

You should have eaten before
you came.

Cos you know here, we only live off
soup and bread.

You shut your mouth.

No, look.

We have to literally make our
own dough.

Joas, he's over the top,
he's extreme, he's Brazilian.

People in the basement probably

don't appreciate such
a personality.

I'm so happy to be here.

We have a work shift so you're in,

dressed, out, we've got money
to win.

We have to work? Straight in.
Yeah! Yeah.

I thought I was taking
a break out of my life!

Oh, Joas,

you really didn't read the rules,
did you?

Upstairs, former Grafters
Rossi and Moses

are actually having a break.

Boys, how are you feeling,

waking up to this rather than
fucking soup and bread rolls?

It's a bit bitter-sweet.

It feels bad that we're doing it
with them down there,

but we've all grafted
and that's what we wanted to do,

get all Grafters up here.
So, this is a table of Grafters.

Guys, there's no-one at this table
that doesn't deserve it.

I'm just ready to go home.

Just start believing in yourself.
I have believed in myself.

Connor's doing his usual.

When he knows he's going to get
voted out,

I feel like he just gives up
so easily,

but he needs to go.

To be honest, he's starting to
annoy me.

It's morning in the basement

and that elimination vote is closer
than ever,

and while they enjoy their delicious
breakfast broth,

Sophie's trying to make things more
interesting by grilling newbie Sam.

What do you guys do?

So, I would say I'm a software
engineer but I'll say a junior.

Wow! Come on, girl. I just got into
it. Software girl!

I have a background in banking,
like seven years in banking.

Sam seems very, very confident.

I always give people 24 hours in
the basement.

I wait for them to get a little bit
hungry.

And then you see what they're
made of.

I'm a mum to a four-year-old.
Are you? Yeah.

So cute! She's four.
I am the primary caregiver.

If no-one looks after her,

I can't go out. But I guess that's
what comes with responsibility.

Are you a single mum? Yeah.
OK. Yeah.

And it just helps me to know that
I can do whatever

I put my mind to do. I just have to
get on with it. Yeah.

Sam is lovely, I think. Very bubbly,

very energetic. We needed it.

Jack and Rossi, in terms of their
personality,

had really big shoes to fill.
But, yeah,

I think she might be able
to fill them.

Right, tell me more about you.

I came from a very
complicated background.

Yeah, being born in
a country like Brazil,

the poverty there is ridiculous.

And then I decided to have
a better life.

I was a big fan of Spice Girls,
how crazy was that? Same.

Yeah, once I learned about
the Spice Girls,

they were from here, right?

And I end up falling in love
with England.

Most of my friends wants to go to
America for the American dream.

Yeah. And I was the only one.

I was like, "I want to go to England
cos I want to meet Baby Spice."

But, actually, I wanted to do...

I wanted to make my family
proud of me

and I wanted to do better
for myself.

Joas, he's definitely vocal.

I see that he's going to stand
for what he believes in.

He's not going to let anyone sway
his decision.

We need some of that in the house.

LIFT: Attention, please.

Oh, here we go.

All Grafters report to
the work space.

It's that way, guys.

Just follow Ed. Let's go,
let's go, let's go!

Matt's got a lot to prove.

He's been in the penthouse for
a while now.

You know, he talks a good game up
there, so I'm looking forward

to seeing how he's going to get on
in the shift today.

Come on! Woo!

Come on, let's go mate.
Let's do it.

My first work shift,
but I'm ready, I'm ready.

You know what? I'm super excited.

This is my opportunity to prove that
I can be

a good Grafter as well as
a good Ruler.

I'll do anything that they put in
front of me, I will do it.

I'm very comfortable about my first
shift coming up.

I have nothing to worry about.
I have no fears.

I know the Grafters down there
right now.

I know their strengths,
I know their weaknesses.

It's going to be really exciting.

I'll tell you what's
really exciting.

Me dressing like the lift.

Hello, Rulers. Hello. Hi, Greg.

Rossi, welcome. Hi, Greg.

Moses, nice to see you up here.
Thank you. You, too.

So, £53,000 in the prize fund.

Feeling happy with that, Jeff?
No, I want to get it up.

We want to get to that £100,000
or more. We will.

OK. Well, shall we find out what
the Grafters

are going to be doing today?

Absolutely. Yes.

Oh, no, you're joking.

Everywhere. Snails. Oh, I don't even
want to look!

Today, the Grafters will work as
pest control technicians...

Oh, my God.

..tackling an infested
suburban home.

The Grafters will split into
two groups,

taking one room each.
To clear the infestation,

they'll need to fill the container
to the red line within

the five minute time limit.

Jesus.

Oh, and they'll have to remove all
the little pests by hand.

Aw! Urgh.

There are four rounds of fun -

snails, maggots, locusts
and cockroaches.

Oh!

Each set of pests is worth
a different amount.

The Rulers can choose which pests

to clear in whatever order
they like.

If the Grafters fail to remove
an infestation before

the time limit runs out,

they fail and no money will be added
to the prize fund.

Whatever we're doing,
think about that prize fund.

We need to increase it.

Yeah, mind over matter. Yeah.

Your decision today is - how many
infestations do you want

the Grafters to clear?

And what pests do you
want to add into the mix?

Snails is a no-brainer,
everyone can do that

and they would probably smash it.

You pick a snail off your garden
path, mate, and move it out the way,

so you can pick it up and put it in
a drawer to win £1,000.

I think we're very, very safe
with snails.

And after that, we can, you know,
test the water.

OK, Rulers, if you're happy for
the Grafters to attempt

the first infestation,
which will be snails,

then please press your buttons.

LIFT: Three, two, one.

Work shift begin.

Go, go, go, go, go! Up and in.
Up and in, yeah.

It looks and smells like
a crazy cat lady's house.

The snails, even just picking up
the...

PLUCKING NOISE
Like, yeah, it was a lot.

They're absolutely annihilating
it. This is amazing.

Yes, yes, yes, yes!

I'm just telling myself these snails
are stones. Mind over matter.

Keep it up!

Oh, my God.

Check cupboards, guys! There's some
in the cupboards.

Yes, yes, yes, yes! Good.
We've done it.

LIFT: Snail infestation cleared.

Well done. High five.

Snails, ching-ching. We've done it.

Done.

Yes! Come on, guys.

There you go, Rulers. £1,000 added.

That was easy, easy.

So, Rulers, do we want to add
another pest infestation

to boost your earnings?
Absolutely. Yeah.

But remember, if they don't complete
the infestation within

the five minutes,
then all money will be lost,

including the snail money.

If we now do the hardest one,
we're only losing £1,000.

Yeah. And then we know what
they're like.

If we go for the cockroaches,
then the locusts last,

we losing more money than we
started with.

The cockroaches,

there's a reason that they're up
there at £5,000

because they're deemed double
as hard.

Fair point. I'm still feeling
the cockroaches, 100%.

Then that way, we've banked 6K,
straight off the bat.

I'll take that there and then.

Rulers, the pests are getting
impatient and so am I.

I need a decision, please.

Cockroaches. I'm happy with
that. Cockroaches.

Not what I would do, but I'll go
with the consensus of opinion.

Make it happen.

Cockroaches.

OK, the button's been pressed.

If the Grafters successfully rid
the room of

the infestation, £5,000 will be
added to the prize fund.

Here we go.

Come on, guys.

LIFT: New infestation added.

Reward, £5,000 with
a five minute time limit.

Let's go and get it, boys
and girls.

Five minute infestation removal
begins in

three, two, one.

Oh, fuck's sake. Cockroaches!

Oh! Cockroaches!

It's fucking stinking.

Oh, I can't even process how bad

it actually smelled in there.

Calm, breathe, breathe,
Matt, breathe.

Whoa! Whoa, that's a lot!
Get them in.

Come on, guys. Oh, my God!

It's raining roaches.

No, no, the top one, the top! You've
got to put it at the top.

They were agile little things.

Oh, fucking hell.

We had Matt next to the disposal

unit putting them away.

They're just cockroaches.
Come on, Matt,

you can do it. Breathe,
they're just cockroaches.

I was in a swing, picking them up,

putting them through the hole,
picking them up.

I couldn't have gone any quicker.

Look, that's why it's harder,
the line's a lot higher. Oh, OK.

Oh, Jesus! Oh, Jesus!

Come on, Matt! Come on, Matt!

SCREAMING

I don't know how Joas done it.

He went in and he dived right in
and just scooped it up.

Even a little one that was on my
foot, I was panicking.

Put them in, put them in.
They're not going to hurt you.

Ah, I've been fucking stung by one!

They were coming from everywhere,

they were coming like out of
the ceiling,

from the floor, like places that
you couldn't even imagine.

Calm down, calm down!
Let's go, let's go, let's go!

OK, Rulers, we're halfway through.

Are we done? Are we done?
No, nowhere near.

Oh, shit, we're nowhere near.
They ain't going to do it.

They're going to do it,
they're going to do it.

It's quite a high line to fill.

We've got to keep going, come on.

But it was just such
a mammoth task.

Where's the bowl, where's the bowl?
Here, here. Put it in, quick!

That's loads.

Get them in. Yes, yes, yes!

Fuck!

One minute remaining. Oh!

This could be a bad
decision, Rulers.

We still need loads more.

Oh, shithouse!

One minute. Get off me!

30 seconds remaining.

Don't give up, don't give up.

Come on! Come on, there's some more
coming.

Five, four,

three, two...

We've fucked it. Fuck off!

LIFT: Infestation removal
unsuccessful.

You bastard. No money earned.

We failed, we failed.
Ah, shit.

Why would they do that, though? Why
would they go for the massive one?

That's like from going zero to 100!
Yes. Do you know what I mean?

Ah, it's down my top, get it off!

It was the wrong decisions for
the Rulers to jump the gun.

There's no short cutting things

and what the boys did up there

is find a short cut to hit
that £5,000.

And guess what? We made zero.

We actually gambled and we said,
"Do you know what?

"We believe they can do it."
It wasn't their fault. They tried.

I do believe there was a mistake.

What none of us took into account
was how

the line was getting higher.
I think it's a mistake,

I'll be honest with you.

Had we have done the maggots

and then had we have been successful
with the locusts...

..like noticed that line going up...
Would we have gone for it?

..I wonder whether we would have
gone for it.

But as you've seen, unfortunately
the Grafters failed the work shift.

They could not clear the cockroaches
in the five minutes.

Undoubtedly, Rulers, you were
careless with that work shift today.

100%. I agree.

Work shift over and no money banked.

The Rulers are feeling about as
high as a cockroach's cranium.

It's time for a debrief.

Well, that wasn't great, was it?
It is what it is, though, in't it?

There's not much we can do. There's
no point beating ourselves up
about it.

GROANING

Tough decision, but we all made it.

That's it, just got to stand by each
other on that.

Yeah, absolutely, I mean,
we're halfway through.

Sometimes you have to take
a little bit of a gamble.

Please, we did it the wrong way
and there's no ifs or buts

about it. We didn't do our homework,
we didn't watch.

I'll be honest with you,
I'm pee'd on that one.

I'm going to take one sixth of
the responsibility

because I went along with everybody,

but made very clear that I don't
think going for

the hardest one was correct.

Listen, I'm not going to beat myself
up over the fucking thing.

These shifts are getting bloody
tough, though.

Some of them are getting really hard
to judge.

If you beat yourself up, trust me,
it fucking destroys you.

Are you OK, Jack?

It is what it is. What the fuck's
he on about?

Fucking... Jeff, just fucking...
Just what you need, in't it?

I am annoyed, obviously
I'm annoyed.

I like winning.
I'm a competitive person.

The Grafters need to
understand that,

yes, it was our fault probably,
but the Grafters want to be tested,

they want to be pushed.

I'm just pissed off a bit
because, obviously,

I don't like losing
and I've lost today.

With the fall votes edging closer
by the minute,

the Rulers are breaking out

a penthouse speciality.

Brutal honesty.

Where's your head at?
Where are you going to go?

Are you going to go him or are you
going to go elsewhere?

My head is kind of with you,

but only cos you literally said,
"Vote me."

And I'll tell you why,
what I'll be voting,

it annoys me when you kick yourself

and you just throw the towel in,
because it's not you.

I thought this whole thing was over.
I thought I'd...

Oh, no, I get that,
I do get that.

I'll tell you another reason why
I will vote for you as well.

If I now go for Jeff

and I'm the only person that does
go for Jeff,

I put myself in a vulnerable
position from people downstairs

coming up, and Jeff and Moses
up here.

Moses is going to go for Connor.
You know he's going to go for Connor

as well, cos you've both been told
before you come up,

"Connor needs to go", and you're not
going to go against the Grafters.

You're great and when I first met
you, you were great,

we were laughing, joking.
It's totally different down there,

but when you start, like you just
said, I want to go home...

A sign of weakness.
It's not a sign of weakness.

I'll tell you what it is,

it's a kind of reaction you do
to not... To not feel...

Yeah, to make their
decision easier.

So, I am now getting pushed out.

They're willing to vote off
a good friend.

The alliance has crumbled.

I'm just feeling so deflated
and so tired.

It is just getting on top of me.

KNOCKING

Jeff, so sorry to disturb you.

Come in, mate.

I just wanted to speak
to my best friend quickly.

Who do you believe should go next?

Hmm, it will be Connor.

Why are we forgetting about what
Connor has done down there?

When Connor was down there, he gave
us morale, he made us laugh,

he made us smile.
He was a positive person. Yes.

I'm going to vote
for James today, OK?

You'll be asked why.

And I will have my reasons why.

I honestly don't think he has done
anything enough

to be able to prove himself as
someone who deserves to stay here.

My plan is for me, Jeff and Connor
to vote for James.

I just need to find Connor
and convince him to vote for James.

Connor can go any time.
If you're asking me,

who would I prefer to go?

No ifs, no buts, James.

James is not the honest broker that
he tries to portray.

He asked his friend, Jack,

"Who wrote the anonymous
feedback upstairs?"

Unfaffing-acceptable.

It will come back and bite him
bloody hard in the bum.

Watch these lips.

I will get Connor to vote
for James today.

James will go and Connor
will be next.

If you are asking...
Come in.

Oh, it's all right, I was just...
You're welcome to come in.

You're... Oh, hiya.
Come in.

How are we all? Is the door closed?
Yeah.

Connor. Mm. You might be resigned
to go,

but be honest with me.

I do want to be here, yeah.

Connor, I want to tell you
something now.

I will 100% get you to
the final.

James deserves to go.
I will vote for James,

he will vote for James,
you will vote for James.

I remember a note someone left me
before I came in that says,

"Follow your head, not your
fucking heart",

because your heart will end up
getting you out of the game.

The whole dynamic will change.

You want to stay? 100%.

Will you vote for James?

Yeah.

Put it there. That's all of us, all
right? Yeah.

Please don't let anyone down.

Don't you let anyone down.

I will not let anyone down.

I've kind of formed a new alliance.

I am now teaming with Jeff
and Moses

to get rid of James.

I'm a bitch, aren't I?

Yes, but a fun one.

What's the food like up there?
It's really nice.

You get a full spread in the morning
and, erm, I do need

to lose some, though. Lose a stone.

On that thought, it's time for our
Rulers to break naan bread,

because by the end of the night,
the one that curries

the least favour will be gone.

Holy shit, this looks incredible.
Oh, shit!

Wow! What?! Curry! Oh, my God.
This looks insane.

Is that a beer? Fuck me, yeah!

Don't get this in the basement,
bruv. Cheers, guys.

To the Rulers. To the Rulers!

How are we all feeling
about today?

It went all right.

It started off all right.

Yeah, the Grafters will be, erm,
a bit down, cos obviously

they gave it everything.

But it was a collective decision
wasn't it,

by us and we just got it slightly
wrong. But, you know,

tomorrow's another day.

I don't think we made
a slight mistake,

I think we made a dreadful mistake.

A good leader sticks by
his decision.

Wins and loses. It's about how he
takes his losses

and how he picks himself up
and moves on from them losses.

LIFT: Attention, please.

Oh, no.

Would one Ruler read from
the tablet?

Rulers, the prize fund currently
stands at £53,000.

Today you can reward
individual Grafters

for their performance during their
work shift.

The reward is a takeaway curry.

Each reward given will deduct
£500 from the prize fund.

You must now decide which Grafters
you would like to reward.

500 times nine.
Four and a half grand.

Do you think we should go
below half?

But you just think,

they're not as big as portions
as this. Yeah.

They're very minute.

Are they going to be expecting a
curry cos they might think

that they failed the task down there
and not us?

No, food is the most important thing
down there.

To me, I would go and miss
the two new ones and Matt.

I wouldn't give Matt or the two
new Rulers one.

Yeah, so take three off.

So, you're suggesting £3,000
on six portions?

They're all adults,
they'll understand.

The new ones will totally agree.

It will leave the prize fund at
around 50.

Yeah. Who wants to deliver?

I think Rossi should do it.

It's time for me to go and deliver
the good news to the Grafters.

Good luck, son!

Guys, the TV's on!

Guys, you best give us cheese!

I'm hungry. That would be so nice.

I'd love some coffee granules.
Fuck me. I know, man.

Hey, guys, well done on today's
work shift.

You've done so, so well.

We were given the opportunity

to reward you
with a takeaway curry.

Oh! Fuck me!

For every Grafter we reward,

£500 will be taken off
the prize fund. That's a lot.

Yeah. There's no way.

We have decided to reward
the Grafters,

Ramona, Rachel, Sophie,

Isaak, Sydney and Eddy.

Sam, Joas and Matt,

you won't be receiving the reward.

Fuck you.

Have fun tonight.

I agree with that. Yeah, I agree.
That's interesting.

Yeah, we've just arrived, though,
haven't we? We've just got here.

Yeah, I bet that's their thought
process. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

But I still think that was a lot of
money for a curry.

£3,000 on Indian food.

Fucking hell, man,
they made the wrong decision.

Yeah, can we actually go back
to bed? Yeah.

OK.

But maybe Joas is upset

because you told me he
worked beast mode today.

From our side, he did...
Brilliant.

..twice as good as anybody else.
Yeah, 100%.

I'm mad because why don't you reward

the people that actually deserved
to be rewarded?

LIFT: Attention, please.
Oh!

No, it's our food.
Oh, it's the food!

Oh! Beers? Beers!

Beers!

Get in! Beers, beers, beers!
Beers, beers, beers!

LIFT: Attention, please.

All Rulers report to the red room
immediately.

Right. Come on, you. Come on, you.
Let's go, yeah? Come on.

Top man. Jeffrey. Good luck, mate.

I'm in it to win, and if that
means siding

with people I never thought
I was going to side with,

then I'm going to.

I'm ready for it.
Watch the fireworks explode.

The time for lobbying
and alliance making is over

because the red room is upon us,

which can mean only one thing -
the fall vote is imminent.

James, I think, is toxic.

He needs to be out of the race
and he will be out.

This is a game now. There's money
on the line.

I shouldn't be the one leaving that
table tonight.

I need to fight for my place.

Guys, the TV. Is it red room
already? Yeah.

Guys, red room!

The atmosphere is very, very tense
and everyone

can't look at people in their eyes,

but I know who I'm going to
vote for.

Right, who is it going to be?

LIFT: Rulers, only the strongest
among you can survive.

You must now vote for one Ruler
to lose their power.

Who wants to go first?

James, I don't really know you,
we've barely spoken.

Yeah, sure. In terms of, you know,
adding to the prize fund

and, you know, the fellow Grafters,
I just want to know

the things that you've done.

I think you sort
of know what I've done.

Wait, so is he going for James
and not Connor?

Why on earth is he doing that?
He's playing a game.

He knows James is the strongest one

and he wants him out,
but that's bullshit.

I have my own presence,
which makes everybody feel really,

really positive and really light,

and that's why people still care
for me

and that's why I still care
for them.

And I obviously also can take
calculated risks,

like I did yesterday.
We put £9,000 in the prize pot.

Yeah, we made that basically
the same in a shift.

James is the one that made
the right decision. Yeah.

He did 480, right? Yeah.
So, why is he going for James?

Because he's strong.

Connor, when I first arrived,
you were

that lovable character,
you had a bit of fight in you,

you were like cracking jokes.

I know it's different down there.

If you're going to want to be
a Ruler,

you can't just keep saying,
"Oh, I want to go home now,

"I can't do this, I'm tired."
That was just today.

I didn't even say I wanted to go
home. I said I was ready.

You said you were ready. I was ready
because the decision was made.

But then when I thought about it,

that's not my personality.
I don't give up.

Remember what I said. And that's why
I've had a change, I get it,

I get it, why you thought that.
Yeah. And I get why...

The decision was already made this
morning before I threw the towel in.

Ah, but, Connor, the decision isn't
made until this point.

He's doing well, I think, Rossi.
He is.

It was all discussed that they want
to be loyal to the Grafters,

the Grafters want me gone.
Wasn't it, Jack?

We've always said that we was always
going to do what the Grafters

wanted us to do.
We've come from being a Grafter.

It's been ongoing for four days.

I did say to you, if that is
the case

and you're not going to fight,
I will vote for you. Yeah.

Because there's people down there
who want to come up

to continue that fight till the end,
right? That's what all of us

want to do.

They won't vote for one another.
Well, Connor has basically said,

"I will never vote for James,
I'm too loyal."

James. Yeah, hello, Jeff.

You asked Jack... Yeah.

..who said what about you

in the anonymous feedback. Yeah.

So?

Obviously he's going to ask.

Shouldn't you be coming for me here?

Please, it will be your turn in
a second, Jack, I assure you.

He is so rude.

Fuck me.

And leaders don't swear at
the table.

And you don't need to smirk either

cos we're not up here to...
Jeff, get on with it.

Get on with it, geezer. Don't talk
to me, you're going to him.

Jack told you the results

of an anonymous feedback.

I asked Jack who said what they said

and it was up to Jack to say it.
If he didn't say it,

I wouldn't have been able to ask.

We dealt with that conversation
about the anonymous vote upstairs

in the penthouse three days ago.

When someone asks me something to do
with their insecurities or anything,

that I'm close to, that's opened up
to me on a personal level,

I'd never, ever, not tell him

because it's a personal approach
to it. When I found out,

when you told me that you had
opened up

on something anonymous,

I'll be frank with you,

to say that I felt

a Judas Iscariot moment.

I felt stabbed in the back.

Oh, my God!

Fucking hell, man.

I'm not going to continue
along this.

Please continue amongst yourselves.
No, you've started it,

you can't just bounce out of it.
I don't understand who you think

you are, Jeff. I don't care how old
you are,

I don't care who you are, I don't
care what businesses you've got,

you're showing to me now that you're
not a good leader cos you're trying
to tear me down.

Now, Jeff, the way you've performed,
you've made me change my

mind right now, here on this
table... Yes.

..in why you should not be a leader,
why you should not be here,

and why you should not have
a seat at this table.

From your mouth to God's ears,
vote for me this evening.

I absolutely will.
I probably am going to go for you.

There you go. Because you've just
come for me. Good news.

It always gets so personal up here
that you people always end up

getting on other people for
a personal reason,

and if it does get personal,
and I don't know,

from what just happened right now,
if Jeff gets kicked out,

or I don't know, whatever
might happen,

then this is not how the game should
be going.

He's known what he's going to say
since he's come in here,

but not once has he said to me that
he's going to come in here

and say that. So, that, for me,
is a snake.

Jeff, he's talked himself
out of it, hasn't he?

But then if it comes down to
a deciding vote and Rossi

and Moses can't agree,
then what happens?

They're both shit. Who?
Jeff and Connor. Yeah.

Who would you think to actually
send home?

Before I came to this room today?
Yeah. Him. He knows that,

I've sat him down and told him that.
But then I can't then...

I know he's the weakest leader
but I know that he's not going to go

and do what he's just done.
He'll tell me to my face.

But why did you come in here,

thinking to get rid of him from
the jump?

Cos he's the weakest leader. If he
didn't open his mouth just then

and start snaking me behind my back,

then I wouldn't even be looking at
him now.

You've said to me today, the only
person you have here as a friend

is Jeff, and I feel like you're
threatened right now that

Jeff could be potentially going
cos of what he just did.

The only reason you are here is
because another Grafter

chose you to be here. Everybody
else, including your friend Jeff...

Yeah. ..wanted Rossi, not you.

That is not a source of
a good Leader,

that is a parasite that's going to
eat away at us

and send good Leaders away
and stop good Leaders coming up,

cos they don't want to be around
this. Hold on.

You care about them Grafters
who want to be here,

you show them why you care...

Yeah. ..why parasites can't be here.

Right back at you, James.

I did not come to this table today
to attack you.

I just don't know you.

LIFT: Rulers, you must now vote
for who should be eliminated.

All votes are locked.

Jeff voted for...

..James.

I think I can best sum it up by
saying that if there were a tax

on brain power...

..James would probably qualify for
a rebate.

LAUGHTER

That's rude.

James voted for...

..Jeff.

Jeff, you're a fucking
parasite, mate.

I don't give a fuck any more.

I'm going to say it as it
absolutely is.

You've just come for me,
and you've just sat here

and said you don't like me
and you think I'm stupid.

You've just outed yourself as
somebody who cannot be trusted

and I hope you've all made
the right decision,

based on your heads right now,

cos if I go and he stays,

good luck.

Oh, my God.

This is getting nasty.

Rossi voted for...

..Jeff.

I was so close on voting Connor,

and do you know what? Thank God
I did vote for you

cos that last comment cemented it,
by calling someone thick.

I think no-one in this world
is thick.

Moses voted for...

..James.

Oh! Who? Who? Two all.

Moses voted James.

I mean, if I was Connor,
I would look to get out James.

No hard feelings, erm,

I didn't get to know you.
That's my thing.

Jack voted for...

..Jeff.

I entered this room going
for him, cos in my mind,

he's the weakest Leader.
For me, personally,

moving forward in this process,
I need to have people around me

that I can trust around this table.

And judging by your behaviour
tonight,

I don't feel like I can trust
you now moving forward.

That's just me as a man,
and that's my decision.

It's business.

Exactly that, mate. Exactly that.

Connor voted for...

..James.

Oh! Oh! Told you, I fucking told
you!

Obviously we had a discussion at
the kitchen.

If I'd have turned on that,
what I was voting for,

I would have been indecisive.
It was a lose-lose situation.

I didn't expect you to get voted.

I hope you understand.
You know I love you sincerely.

James and Jeff have received three
votes each.

As there is a tie, new Rulers
Moses and Rossi

must now decide who will be
eliminated,

James or Jeff.
