The Traitors (2023–…): Season 1, Episode 7 - Episode #1.7 - full transcript

- [ Thunder rumbles ]
- Previously...

[ People scream ]
The players continue to build

the $250,000 prize pot
except for one.

Hey, why are you throwing those
in the woods?

Because I'm a liability.

I am there to [Bleep] shit up.

- She's an asshole.
- In a wicked twist,

three players were put on trial
by the traitors.

Kate, Anjelica, and Rachel.

You have been put on trial and
face possible murder tonight.

A secret room in my castle
gave brief hope to the faithful.



But there was no luck
for those who needed it most.

I'm devastated.

However, the tables
may finally be turning...

Who is the obvious traitor?

- Say the name.
- Yeah.

...with Cody at risk
of being unmasked...

We have to get rid
of a traitor tonight.

It's getting embarrassing,
to be honest.

Something feels off.

It probably feels off
'cause you're a traitor.

- Oh, my God.
- People are on to him.

Will the traitors
protect themselves?

I don't think
Rachel's a traitor.

I don't know what to do next.



I don't feel Kate's
a traitor either.

So where do you see a traitor?

Um...

♪♪

♪♪

So where do you see a traitor?

♪♪

[ Sighs ]

♪♪

Um...

♪♪

I'm basing my vote on the people

that I feel are faithfuls,

and that's where
I'm voting tonight with them.

♪♪

So does anyone have
anything else left to say?

♪♪

Then, players, it's once more
time to place your votes.

♪♪

I'm kind of on pins and needles.

I don't want to be the only one
at the table saying Cody

and everybody else is saying
Kate.

If Cody survives the roundtable

and we have to continue
to work as a team,

it could be terrible.

♪♪

Players, it's now time
to reveal who you voted for.

♪♪

We're going to begin with Cody.

♪♪

It ain't personal.

It's just a game. Rach.

Shelbe.

Rachel, I voted for you.

You are a traitor.

And also considering
your competitiveness

throughout the years.

So that's two votes for Rachel.

Anjelica?

This was my hardest vote yet.

Cody, I voted for you.

I'm so sorry.

Stephenie.

Cody. If I was a traitor,

I would be acting just like you.

And that's how I know
that you're a traitor.

Okay.

So that's two votes for Rachel
and two votes for Cody.

♪♪

Rachel.

Cody, I wish that you and I
could have worked together

and not come against each other,

because I think it's ridiculous.

But this is where we're at,
and I think all the things

you think about me
is what I think about you.

Quentin.

So I voted for you, Kate.

In the event
that you are a faithful.

It's not helping the collective.

Oh, yeah.

Also, I would just say
to you, Cody,

you were never on my radar.

Have you been withdrawn
and all these other things?

Sure.
When I'm taking you at your word

that it's for the reasons
that you've laid out,

and that's just what it is.

I don't... I don't think you.

- Appreciate you, bro.
- Mm-hmm.

So that's three votes for Cody.

Two votes for Rachel,
and one vote for Kate.

♪♪

Cirie.

♪♪

♪♪

Cody.

♪♪

We've been getting it wrong.

And sometimes you have to depend
on your team to steer you

in the right direction,
and that's why I voted for you.

♪♪

Kate.

I voted for Rachel.

♪♪

So that's four for Cody,

three for Rachel,
and one for Kate.

With only three votes
remaining...

Andie?

Cody. After getting Kyle
wrong last night, it's just,

you know,
he was leaving breadcrumbs,

and, I mean, if I'm, you know,
the stupid one picking it up,

and we're wrong,
we're wrong, but it's all I got.

Christian.

If you also vote
for Cody, he will be banished.

♪♪

My vote was for you, Cody.

♪♪

Mainly because I got to go
with my gut.

Yeah. No hard feelings, man.

♪♪

And with the final vote...
Arie?

♪♪

Sorry, man.

I'm putting my faith
a little bit in Rachel,

which could burn me,
but I do trust you.

♪♪

So, sorry, man.

♪♪

So, Cody, you have received
the most votes

and you are banished
from the game.

Please come forward
to the Circle of Truth.

♪♪

♪♪

Cody, before you were banished
from the game forever,

please reveal

if you are a faithful
or a traitor.

♪♪

♪♪

[Bleep]

♪♪

I wanted to play
this game so bad.

♪♪

[ Sighs ] I'm sorry.
[ Sniffles ]

♪♪

And I wanted to be a traitor
so bad.

- Oh, no.
- Oh, no.

No.

♪♪

I love you all,
so it is so not personal.

- I am a traitor.
- Yes!

[ Hands clapping ]

- Oh, my God.
- [ Clapping continues ]

♪♪

You did such a good job.

♪♪

Thank you, Cody.

♪♪

Cody, I'm sorry.

I just can't imagine
being in his position.

Inside, I am dying
a little bit for Cody.

- Wow.
- [ Sighs ]

- See you in New Jersey, Cody.
- Absolutely.

[ Chuckles ]

♪♪

It feels like a weight has been
lifted off my shoulders.

I feel like I can finally, like,
actually be myself

and not have this, like,
crazy burden just crushing me.

Oh, my goodness.

♪♪

Cirie is showing future traitors

how they need to play this game,

because she is
playing it perfectly.

Cody.

[ Thunder rumbles ]

Christian's a bro.

And so I know
how he felt in that moment.

He didn't want to do it to me,
but he also knew he had to.

My vote was for you, Cody.

♪♪

What a wild ride.

What a wild, wild ride.

♪♪

So.

You've finally done it.

- You have found a traitor.
- Oh.

But remember there are
still traitors amongst you.

And now to bed.

- Kate.
- Yeah.

Rachel, Anjelica,
you remain on trial.

And come morning, one of you
will have been murdered.

♪♪

I'd pop on an eye mask.

♪♪

- [ Sighs ]
- Thank God.

[ Sighs ]

I'm just... I'm, like, shaking.

I'm, like, shaking, yeah.

- Cody's a traitor.
- People finally listen to me.

All right, traitors,
we are onto you.

I think Kate is a traitor.

I think Shelbe's a traitor.

You're the only two
that we're voting with, Cody.

Like, it's just apparent
that they're the other two.

It is, like, game on now.

♪♪

- Here's to game one, guys!
- [ Glasses clink ]

- Here's to game one.
- We got a traitor.

We got a traitor.

But I think
we've all been blinded

by the personal connections
that we're making with people.

But you have to take away
all the emotional aspect

of this game.

You have to look at it
as what it is.

It's like, I'm happy
we got one...

- Yeah, yeah, finally.
- ...but it's like.

It's just like, "Wow."

We did get a traitor out,
so that's good news.

But I have thought
that Cody is 100%

a faithful this entire game.

That was definitely a gut punch.

So for me,
I think that it's time to start

looking at some other people
in this game.

Did you have eyes on Shelbe
when he told...

Oh, the whole time!

No, I didn't watch it all.

When Cody revealed himself,
I looked over at Shelbe,

and her reaction wasn't,
like, all of our reactions.

She was upset and sad,
but she wasn't really elated.

[ Wolf howls ]

♪♪

[ Bell tolls ]

- Bedtimes.
- Sleep well, except for me

- because I might be murdered.
- Yeah, same.

Tonight, either
me, Anjelica, or Kate

are going to definitely
be murdered.

And it's just
the worst feeling ever.

I am completely convinced
that I am going to be murdered,

and I'm sick
to my stomach over it.

I don't want to be murdered.

I'd rather be banished

so I can look
everyone in the eye and say,

"You were wrong."

♪ Ain't gonna let you rain
on my parade no more ♪

As a traitor, you have to stay
loyal to beating the faithfuls.

And if one of the traitors
is becoming a weak link,

unfortunately, you're gonna
get cut from the team.

♪♪

[ Both laugh ]

That was hard,
but it was necessary.

Yeah, he was becoming
a liability.

He was becoming a target,
a liability.

- Wow! What a day, what a day!
- I know.

- This is...
- It's been a lot of work today.

- It's been a lot of work.
- Then there was two.

Then there was two.

So we have
the three people on trial...

Anjelica,

Kate,

and Rachel.

Did you get any indication
who might have that shield?

Two of them,
Anjelica and Rachel,

could have a shield.

That means
even if we choose them,

they can't be murdered.

I want to keep Kate.

We gotta keep Kate.

Nobody knows if she's a faithful
or a traitor.

- Exactly.
- So we want to keep her around.

As long as Kate's still here

and a known traitor
is still in the mix...

-Yeah
-...that's all we need.

- So we keep Kate.
- Yeah.

And we gotta take that risk.

Well, I'm willing.

I think we made
the right decision.

- I agree. Let's do it.
- ♪ I'm gonna win ♪

♪♪

Last night, the traitors
lost their first member,

while for the first time,

the majority of the faithful
slept easy,

knowing they were safe.

Waking to a new day,

they now make their way
to breakfast

where they'll discover which
of those on trial was murdered.

♪♪

- Hey, oh!
- Oh!

- We're first?
- We're first.

- I'll get the door for you.
- Ooh.

I feel great that I've made it
this far.

I do have the shield
in my pocket.

We got a traitor out last night.
But where do we go now?

[ Knocking ]

- Hey!
- Hey!

We're down to two traitors.

- Oh!
- Oh!

And now the pool of suspects

is gonna get
tighter and tighter.

So we gotta figure out
something quickly.

I think it'll tell a lot of
who's [chuckles]...

- Who's still here.
- Mm-hmm.

- Who would go and why?
- Okay. You're a traitor.

- Mm-hmm.
- Why would you even vote

Anjelica or Rachel
if there's a shield out there?

It's a 50/50 shot.

That's a big risk
they're taking.

So the easy murder is Kate.

But if Kate's a traitor,
she can't be murdered.

So they have no choice.

Oh, yeah, that would make Kate
a traitor?

- Well, that would...
- If one of those two

- are not here?
- That would be a bold move

by the traitors,
because it's a 50/50 shot,

and it could indicate
that Kate could be a traitor.

Yeah.

♪♪

[ Knocking ]

♪♪

Oh!

Nice hat.

♪ Dun dun dun ♪

Kate has arrived,
and that immediately says a lot.

For some people in the room,
it's like Kate's a traitor.

Dang. Traitors are either
super risky

with the 50/50 bet,
or Kate, you're a dang traitor.

[ Laughter ]

Well, you guys have been saying
I am all the time, so...

Of course the traitors
are keeping me

because they still want
the faithfuls

to think I'm a traitor.

It's a gift and a curse.

People just never
want me to leave.

- Ah!
- Another day of hell for you.

Yep.

So who got the shield, I wonder?

Usually I know who's not
showing up.

In this instance, I'm not sure

whether the person we chose
to murder is gonna show up

because they had a shield
or not.

Okay, well,
I hate to say this, but...

- Oh!
- ...I'm the one that has

a shield.

- Oh!
- Oh!

It didn't protect
either of the girls,

- because I'm the one that got it.
- Right.

We gambled. We hit the jackpot.

I feel great.

The person we chose
to murder is dead.

What do you think?

I really feel like
there's no direction

either way between the two.

- I just hope that Rachel comes.
- Oh, my God.

I'm very anxious awaiting to see

who's gonna
walk through that door,

Rachel or Anjelica.

I'm wondering
who's gonna be murdered.

I'm really hoping
it's not Rachel

because Rachel, Cirie, and I

have had an alliance
since day one.

Oh!

[ Applause ]

Kate's here?

- Yeah.
- Yep.

- Anjelica's murdered?
- Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

- Who are we murdering?
- Anjelica.

Anjelica doesn't really
make decisions that well.

When it comes
to the round table...

- Mm-hmm.
- ...she swayed too easily,

nudged too easily.

All it takes is
one bad day for someone

to say, "Eh, Christian and Cirie
are sketch."

- And she... yeah.
- Exactly.

If we want to add money
to the pot,

I'd rather have Rachel.

I would, too,
because she works her tail off.

Who is also a shield because...

- A shield and suspect.
- Right.

So, Anjelica...
That's the decision.

Agree.

♪♪

"Dear Anjelica,
by order of the traitors,

you have been murdered.
Signed, the traitors."

I loved playing this game,
and of course

I wish
I could have played longer.

Coming in,
I wanted to win so bad.

And then you're playing,

and you just want to make it
to breakfast the next morning.

And that's what it's all about.

And today, I didn't make it
to breakfast.

So, yeah.

- Damn.
- I know.

She's probably, like,
actually, like, just crushed.

Poor Anjelica.

Yeah, I love it when a plan
comes together, though.

I do, I have to say it.

♪♪

Good morning, compadres.

- Good morning, Alan.
- Good morning, my lord.

Well, your numbers,
like my emergency wine supply,

are depleting
at an alarming rate.

The traitors
are mortally wounded.

The battle is won,

but the war is far from over.

Kate, Rachel,

you survived being on trial
and live to fight another day.

What a time to be alive!

Carpe diem. Embrace the day!
Right, Kate?

- Yeah.
- All right, Kate.

[ Laughter ]

- Okay.
- Let's get going, shall we?

I think today's mission
will really lift your spirits.

Mm.

Anjelica's room was
much nicer than mine.

I might move.

You're already
taking Anjelica's room?

Hey, you gotta do
what you gotta do.

- I'm only here for a night.
- You can have it tomorrow.

- Wow.

♪♪

I'm feeling a little bit
out of the loop,

and I'm a little sad today.
[ Sighs ]

I'm thinking about my daughter
the entire time,

and it's really hard.

I need to try
and pull myself together.

So who are you guys gonna say
you're voting then, tonight?

I do feel like Shelbe's
attitude is, like,

- she's checked out.
- Yeah.

Yeah, she's not even,
like, doing anything.

She was so happy to be
in this whole thing.

And then she's just been
depressed this whole time

- 'cause she's holding a secret.
- Mm-hmm.

Last night, she had, like,
no reaction,

to how it went with Cody.

I feel like she's a traitor.

I'm fighting with myself
right now.

Shelbe has a lot of suspicion
on her, which is good for me.

But as much as, you know,
we're traitors and everything,

I don't like to see
anybody isolated.

I just came to see
if you're okay.

- And I appreciate that.
- I just miss my child.

- Yeah, no, I can't imagine.
- I really do.

When I went on "Survivor"
the first time,

- my youngest was five.
- Really?

- Yeah.
- So I know that feeling.

And then with everything else...

Yeah, I just miss her.

This game is challenging,
but I need that money.

I'm rebuilding my life
after my divorce,

and I'm just hoping
to start something special

for my daughter and myself.

I just wanted to make sure
you was okay.

No, I'm all right. I just...
I'm just sitting down, taking...

I know, but everybody over
there, you over here.

It, you know...
I'm just kind of like

it's me opposed to the group.

I'm hearing so many
conversations,

your name being one of them.

I mean, I wouldn't even know
what suspicions

they would have of me
or what I've done,

but, I mean, I'm with it.

Just have conversations
and be with the group.

- Don't isolate.
- All right. I'm with it.

- Okay.
- I'm with it. Come on.

♪♪

Shelbe comes on and off
of my list.

- It's like this.
- Yeah.

Also, I think Kate's a traitor.

We only have tonight and
tomorrow to get those two out.

You gotta look at the votes.
Who's voting for who?

Who's defending who?

Rachel, I voted for you.

I voted for Rachel.

It ain't personal.

Look where she's sitting,
right next to Kate.

She's defeated.
Like, you can just see.

Finally, people are starting
to listen to me a little bit

and trust me that,
maybe she's on to something.

You have to admit,
there were many, many banishment

or round table ceremonies

- where votes were wasted on me.
- Mm-hmm.

Since the ones that kept voting
for me are all still here...

- Right.
- ...I think Quentin, Christian,

- Stephenie, and Rachel...
- And Rachel.

...are gonna vote
for me tonight.

It definitely is going to be
either me or you,

because people are not going to
vote for people that they like.

Like, you know what I mean?

You would have
picked out herself.

Clearly, there has been
a clique in the group.

Shelbe and I aren't part of it.

So if one of us
is gonna get banished,

I'd rather go home
before Shelbe.

It's clear that
the majority of the house

- believe it's them two.
- I know.

And it's interesting that
them two find themselves

- sitting...
- Together.

- I feel very confident...
- Mm-hmm.

- ...that it's Shelbe.
- I feel really confident.

Do you feel really confident
that it's Kate, too?

- Yeah.
- If we take Shelbe out today,

that leaves Kate.

And who knows what Kate
is gonna do?

♪♪

Aaaaah!

Help!

Aaaaah!

Players!

Something terrible has happened!

Quickly!

- What happened?
- What?

- The ghosts of this castle...
- [ Laughter ]

...have ruined
my billiards room.

These ghosts are
from the spirits

of former players...

[ Screams ]

...returned to my castle to run
amok and to make mischief.

[ Screams ]

So in today's mission,

we are going to do
some ghost hunting.

- [ Gasps ]
- [ Laughing ] Okay.

Split yourselves up
into three groups.

Come on.
[ Laughter ]

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

- I guess we...
- Yeah.

- All right.
- We'll all be dead.

[ Laughter ]

Wait, what?

We've got to hurry because
those godforsaken ghouls

are making a mess in there
right at this very instant.

They keep switching around
my favorite items,

and it's so annoying

because Fergus just had
this castle feng shui-ed.

[ Laughter ]

Here's what's going to happen.

Group by group, you will
enter my billiards room.

You have one minute to spot
which items have changed

once the poltergeists
have struck,

for they surely will again.

Each group is responsible
for finding three changed items.

One correctly identified item
will bring you $1,000

for the cash-prize pot.

Two correct items
will bring you $5,000.

Three correct items
will bring you $10,000.

- Whoo!
- Yeah, okay.

[ Applause ]

But arguably more importantly,

the group that identifies
the most correct items

will also win a trip
to my armory,

for a chance to gain a shield

and keep yourself safe
from murder tonight.

[ Wolf howls ]

Enter, please. Thank you.

- Thank you, Fergus.
- Ladies.

- Ooh!
- Cast your eyes on

my once-magnificent
billiards room.

[ Glass shattering ]

Um, the billiards room
looks quite different.

There's shit everywhere.

Try now to make a list
of everything in this room,

and quick about it,

for the spirits may return
at any second.

Everybody take an area,
and we'll each pick, like...

Okay, so I'm over here.
I'm over here.

- All right.
- There's a lot of things

- over here, Kate.
- I'ma say some stuff out loud.

We got a hat, purse,
violin, doll.

Got some suspenders, kite.

Okay, dominos on the floor.

Barrel. This piano thing.

[ Screams ]

Aah!

Oh. Ooh.

Jesus.

Oh! Oh, my God.

I feel like somebody's
in front of me. Ahhh!

The spirits are among us, guys!

[ Screams ]

Karma's a bitch, and so is Kate.

- Oh!
- [Indistinct] you faithfuls.

- [ Evil cackle ]
- Ooh!

Of course Brandi's coming back
from beyond the banishment grave

to have my back.

Players, your time starts now!

Okay, we're trying
to figure out what changed.

Three items have changed.

These pesky poltergeists
have been here

and caused mischief.

Hurry, players, hurry!

- This hat changed.
- This was a black hat.

- I agree with you.
- Yes, it was.

Okay. Anything look different
over here?

- No, nothing.
- Nothing?

- No.
- Okay.

Okay, I found one thing

that was in the room
that's been moved.

I don't think you understand
the assignment.

I'm normally pretty good
with these kinds of things,

but I'm usually
a bit more motivated.

I have no idea what's different.
I don't really care.

Really, team,
I've got to hurry you.

Come on, Kate. You said
you have a great memory.

I don't see you coming up
with anything.

- Cause this wasn't my section.
- Nothing over there changed.

Oh, nothing? Okay.

Stephenie says
absolutely nothing

in her part of
the billiards room has changed.

I'm thinking,
"Mm, I doubt that."

I don't know if Brandi
was right there.

I feel like Brandi had moved.

You think so?

I feel confident about Brandi.

I'm going with Brandi.

- Okay.
- Now you do one.

I was like, "Oh, okay,
maybe Kate's gonna try hard."

And then she's like,
"Oh, Brandy's picture."

It was just ridiculous.

I mean, she's just ridiculous.

I have to hurry you, players.

The ghouls are impatient.

It's exhausting, ghost hunting,
isn't it, Kate?

It sure is.

Okay, everybody feel good
about their items?

Good enough.

- Taking a change.
- We got it.

Are they locked, y'all?

We're locking them?

Spirits of players past,
victims of this castle,

how many items are correct?

Show us a sign!

[ Bang and roar ]

Just one.

- Just one item is correct.
- Mm-hmm.

My gosh. It's the hat.

- Correct.
- [ Cash register dings ]

This hands you $1,000
for the prize pot.

- Good job.
- All right.

There was a gray typewriter
in the corner.

- Now there is a black one.
- It's black!

- That's right.
- Mm.

I am not shocked.

That section wasn't my section.
It was Kate's.

It's so frustrating
being on a team with her.

The other item was,

there was a black-and-red vase
behind me,

and now...

It's green.

Whose section was that?

- That was mine, but I swear...
- That was yours, Stephenie.

You were very confident
that nothing had changed.

- Yeah.
- Mm-hmm.

It's, like, so embarrassing.

You won just $1,000
towards the prize pot.

All right, it's still money.

[ Indistinct conversation ]

Try to memorize
everything in this room,

fiendish ghosts will return?

Go.

A horse. A deer.

A lion. A thing.

Creepy doll.

Fergus, I can see
your hands trembling.

What's happened to your gloves?

Don't you knit anymore?

Time is...

- Oh!
- Oh!

How could you murder me?!

The spirits are amongst us!

They're coming for you.

Your mask is slipping.

I heard Cody's voice say
my mask is slipping.

Even though it was pitch black,
I felt like all eyes were on me.

One minute.

Look closely, players.

What three items have changed?

I'm looking for a sign.

The lights are flickering.
Is that a sign?

Like, we're looking
for anything.

I don't think this...

- That hourglass was there.
- It was? Okay.

Yeah, I saw it.

Honestly, my mind goes blank,
and I'm like,

"Oh, was... is the hat here?
Was it there?"

- Wait, this wasn't here.
- This little, small teapot.

- Sure?
- I'm positive.

- Andie, did you look over here?
- I don't remember this hat.

I don't remember that hat,
either.

I remember a doll, violin,
hat, bag.

- I don't remember this hat.
- Right.

Was there something in this?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure there was.

Okay. If you're sure,
go with you first...

My goal was to be like,
"I don't want to be murdered,

some monkey business in here,

I want the shield, though.

I don't want to be murdered

You won just $2,000

the collective prize pot.

We've only won $2,000

Two teams both got one item,

which means we have a tie.

So it came down to who locked in
their items the fastest.

And the fastest team,

Guess who gets the shield?

because, you know, obviously
this is the ultimate power

in the game right now.

♪♪

So here's my logic,

because I've been told
my name is coming up.

There's certain people
y'all have all connected with.

You're not going to vote
each other out.

So I feel like for that reason,
it will fall back on me

to be up on the block.

People are not going to be
tossing out names of people

that they really,
really like in this game.

Yeah, there's a clique.

I still think
that Rachel is a traitor.

I do, too.

If you can prove
some valid points,

maybe I'd be willing
to open my eyes,

but I just really don't feel...

I don't feel like repeating
my valid points.

But, like, who do you feel...
If it's me,

then that's fine, too,
but, like, who do you feel?

I mean, Quentin,
maybe Christian.

I know Cirie was mad
that she wasn't a traitor.

Cirie is an ally for me
in this house.

I'm definitely going to mention
the tidbit of information.

If I can turn suspicions
on Stephenie,

I'm going to use that
to my advantage.

I don't know.
I-I'm not feeling that.

Maybe I shouldn't
have said that.

In this game, everything you say
and everything you do

can and will
be held against you.

We are down to the wire.

Like, now it's time
to start playing

for real, for real.

And I'm not just gonna
roll over,

and they're
not gonna just banish me.

Mm.

Nobody is ever going to vote
for anybody that they like.

That's just the facts.

Like, Cirie? We all love Cirie.

Like, nobody finna throw out
Cirie's name,

and she might
very well be a traitor.

Kate, do you want to come
talk to me?

- Oh, sure.
- Yeah.

I'm just throwing stuff
out there, Andie,

not to jumble up your head,
not to...

'Cause God knows I'm a faithful.

I'm just trying
to last through the game.

It's not far-fetched to think
Quentin is a traitor.

It's not far-fetched to think
Cirie might be a traitor,

because she really wanted to be

and she got upset
when she wasn't.

Wait, Cirie wanted to be
a traitor?

That's what Stephenie said,

that Cirie wanted
to be a traitor.

- Maybe they had a conversation.
- Why didn't you bring that up?

I don't know. She says Cirie
really wanted to be a traitor.

- Today?
- Yeah.

She said Cirie really
wanted to be a traitor,

but she got upset
when she wasn't a traitor.

And that's why she knows
that Cirie is not a traitor.

And so I'm like, "All right."

Wait. I... I think
I'm mind-blown by that.

That threw me for a loop,
but I had to, like,

ring it back in
because it's like,

is this a last-ditch
confusion effort

for Shelbe to throw out there?

I got to go talk to Cirie.

So, Shelbe just told me
that Stephenie told her...

- Mm-hmm.
- ...you were upset

that you weren't chosen
as a traitor

and that you wanted to come
on the show as a traitor.

Oh! So now Andie's
coming to me saying,

"Did you tell Stephenie

that you wanted to be
a traitor?"

Like, Stephenie,
what are you talking about?

I'm on nobody's radar,
and you decide to say,

"Well, Cirie..."
as my ally.

What sense does that make?

And so you said something
about being upset

that you weren't chosen
to be a traitor.

- Absolutely not. Absolutely not.
- Okay.

And I took it like
a grain of salt.

Just, I'm cool with you.

No, but I'm not cool
with Stephenie doing that.

- Hold it for the table.
- Yeah.

- Hold on for the table.
- Okay.

Going into the round table
tonight,

I just hope the cliquey group

has not pre-decided
who they're going for tonight.

I don't know
what's gonna happen.

I just know that we're down
to two traitors.

We can't lose another tonight.

If my name is spoken
at the round table,

I'm going to
prepare to defend myself.

I don't want to be a target.

I don't want

I don't want to be

It'll just be another

We few, we happy few.

Britain has its parliament.

America has its Congress.

And we here at my castle

have our round table.

Your prize pot currently stands
at $133,800.

Will the traitors go undetected

and take
all the money for themselves?

As we're approaching
the end now, my dear players,

can you feel it?

Whose grasp of the game
needs to be loosened?

Who's not quite what they seem?

Who is hiding
a traitorous secret?

The floor is yours.

Happy banishing.

I would like to start tonight

by saying once and for all,

I am not a traitor.

I'm not upset
that I'm not a traitor.

I don't know where it started.

He said, she said, they said,
we said.

But you can hear it from me,
myself, and I...

I'm not upset.

And please, please,
if there's any question,

please just come ask me,

and I will clarify it
for anybody.

Do you guys want to talk about
why that came up, or no?

So, apparently,
what Steph said was

they were... they meaning
Shelbe and Stephenie...

Were asking who would like
to be a traitor?

And I was joking.

I'm saying, "Oh, Cirie
would be a good traitor."

Cirie? I mean, I never
thought about her,

but there's some animosity
towards somebody

that nobody was thinking about.

I know that Cirie is a faithful.

I-I'm not sure what you were
trying to do there,

but I don't know,
that was just a little weird.

Shelbe, I would love
to ask you how...

If you could convince us
that you're a faithful?

Baby, I don't know
how I can convince you,

just like Geraldine
couldn't convince y'all,

Just like poor Michael
couldn't convince you.

I don't know what I can do
to convince you.

Maybe the question is,
why do you think I'm a traitor?

Give me a reason why you think
I'm a traitor

so I can then disprove that.

- So you were very close to Cody.
- Yeah.

- And you always voted with him.
- You always...

I'm sorry to cut you off,
but I'm just wanting to say

I stayed true to my own vote,

and I always gave
my own reasoning.

I threw names out
when nobody else would.

- Mm-hmm.
- So I didn't vote with nobody,

not even the group.

Okay. So, like last night,

you were on the same game plan
with Cody to come after me.

So I just want to know,
was that Cody manipulating you,

or was that you two
coming up with a plan

to try to sway our votes?

These were things
that I have said to Cody.

And so listening back
at that round table,

it was me hearing Cody
say things I have said to him.

So it could have been him
manipulating me

or him taking what I'm saying
and just spitting it right back.

So, yeah, it could have
been Cody just mirroring

right back to you
what I've said to him.

I have a couple thoughts
on the matter.

So, I think when we met
on the first day here,

I met someone who was like,

you seemed so happy
and you smiled a lot,

- and you were, like, so excited.
- Yes.

And I haven't seen the person
that I met in the beginning.

And when Cody revealed
that he was a traitor,

I looked at you,
and you didn't look happy.

But I would feel elated
that I found a traitor.

So that was my indication
that I was like,

"She's next on my radar."

I wasn't happy either,
just 'cause I was wrong.

And, frankly, I'm expecting that
because you wasted so many votes

to vote me out as a traitor,

which you clearly
believe me to be,

I feel like my fate is sealed.

I am attempting to throw myself
in front of the firing squad

and take one for Shelbe

because I'd rather her stay
and me leave.

I mean, I think we just
never had the votes

to get you out before.

I think that that
was the problem.
