VOICE-OVER: Previously...
I didn't like the blindside that Alex did on us.
..AJ's influence on Alex
sowed division among her fellow Traitors.
Do I push Alex?
..and the Faithfuls' growing frustration...
Oh!
..zeroed in on the leader of the strongest alliance...
Why can't you play your own game?
Why do you need a little posse, Dicko?
Because I'm an insecure man.
(HE LAUGHS)
..causing an all-out revolt at the Round Table...
I don't really mind about that.
Yeah, but you should,
for the health of getting Traitored,
you should do your best to not seem like one.
..and the demise of Dicko.
I wouldn't trust you guys to find my car keys.
I'm a Faithful.
(SHE GASPS)
At the Conclave, it was a new revelation from Alvin...
On our way back from the mission,
AJ said Alex could be a Traitor.
Why would he do that?
..that left Alex questioning her ties to AJ.
We need to have each other's back.
Hopefully that starts to put Alex
under a little bit of pressure to stay on the same page.
..and once again, the Traitors were unleashed
to send another Faithful to their grave.
My first thought was Rob.
He already suspects us.
My first vote would be Josh... Mm.
..because Josh voted for Rachael,
and it puts Rachael back in the hot seat.
Luke is a bit sporadic. He's called you out.
Yeah.
This decision will destabilise things in a big way.
What's wrong with an earthquake?
Brace yourselves!
(MUSIC PLAYS)
# It's all fun and games
# Until someone gets hurt
# Touch my innocence
# Watch my every move
# Lies and truth and sin
# All fall down on me
# Pray... #
(SHE GASPS)
We're first!
Oh! Wow!
I've never been first before!
I feel awful that we voted Dicko out.
(SHE GASPS) Yummy!
But I will say he did himself no favours.
Oh, this means I'm gonna have to hug everyone.
The kind of cult leader energy is just not useful.
He was kind of doing the Traitors' work for them.
Have you guys come in like...
We, we, um... We actually...
Telepathy. Did you just wake up?
You guys didn't decide at a meeting last night, or...?
A secret meeting.
Yes. (THEY LAUGH)
We're at the halfway mark in the game,
and the Faithful really want a taste of Traitor blood.
First things first, I need coffee.
Yes. Please.
I'm still reeling from the fact that I had my name
sort of put down, and that sort of shook me a little.
Alvin,
your reasoning has always been very poor,
and I think it suits your personality to a T
to just jump into a bloc vote and survive the Round Table.
I feel like, I don't know.
What do we think about Josh's theory,
how he said there's two Traitors,
that they've put themselves in Death Row?
I think I just need to be a bit more vocal,
without drawing too much attention.
I don't think there was two, and I'm sorry, Rhys, again,
but I do still have my suspicions.
Absolutely. You have to have had a Traitor
on Death Row, because you want to listen to the conversation.
I feel like a Traitor, it's two ways,
where you're benign in the Round Tables
and very active out in the game...
Mm-hm. ..or vice versa.
Exactly. Right?
Like, the kind of neutral ones, to me, feel Faithful,
which is why I think AJ is an interesting conversation.
There's a couple people at the moment
that we haven't looked at,
and I think AJ is one of them.
Whether he's a Traitor or not, he's very strategic...
Yeah. ..and this is just between
you guys, the other day, he literally said to me,
"I'm not voting for Kirby",
and I'm like, "Why? Like, everyone suspects her".
And he goes...
If Kirby's a Traitor, she's protecting me.
OK.
That's why I'm not getting murdered.
OK.
So there were four Survivor contestants, right?
Oh, we've got props.
(SHE LAUGHS)
AJ's still here,
and so's Kirby. OJ.
Hilarious.
What if AJ is a Traitor
and is using Kirby to protect him?
Yet again, we're wondering whether OJ killed someone.
(SHE LAUGHS) Does that make sense?
Because he also said to me,
"I 100% know that you're a Faithful".
I'm like, "How do you 100% know that I'm a Faithful,
unless you're a Traitor?"
(KNOCKING AT DOOR) Oh!
Hey!
(SQUEALING)
Is it just you three?
Whoa!
Going into today, I need to have a lot of conversations.
So far, I feel like Kirby is a Traitor.
I need to catch another Traitor.
Good morning! Morning!
Maybe it's Rhys. Maybe it's Alvin.
Maybe it's Lawson.
I don't know.
You two look fabulous, by the way.
Yeah.
Do you want milk?
Yep. Do you want coffee? Nah.
So who do we think is gone? Like, I mean...
What've we got? Who've we got left?
I feel like it might be one of the twins.
Mm. Yeah.
Last night, Luke came for me a little bit,
and made a point of saying, "I'm on your tail".
But how do you know someone didn't say that name to him,
and now he's... Exactly.
We need to know where that name came from.
It came from our car. I said, "Who's smart enough
"to be a Traitor that you don't suspect of being a Traitor?"
I don't think... Oh, Alex, no.
No. I think Alex could be.
I think, randomly, Rhys could be.
Yep. Rhys would definitely
make a good trade-off.
Yeah.
At the moment, it feels like I'm one of the next people
that the Traitors are manipulating everyone to think
is a Traitor.
(KNOCKING AT DOOR) Come in.
OK, guys, this is serious.
(SQUEALING AND CHEERING)
This morning at breakfast...
..my mind is 1,000,000mph.
When Alvin mentioned that AJ was floating my name,
I was so rattled.
Alex, how d'you sleep?
Really? (CROSSTALK)
No.
I feel myself
losing my cool.
OK. Yeah.
I noticed a bit of, uh, uh,
something there.
Yeah. Playing into MY hand?
Yeah.
But I just,
I need to compose myself,
and to try and keep myself in check,
because I feel like that's revealing.
Haven't said Alex's name once in my life.
Yes, you have. Yes, you have.
You literally told me
you wanted to take me all the way to the end.
Alex... You said the same thing
to Rachael. Alex...
You said... I haven't said you.
Yes, you have. I haven't.
Why is it coming back to me, then?
Alex, I haven't said your name.
Why is it coming back to me that you have?
Alex, I haven't said your name.
Why is it coming back to me, then?
Who said... Who said it?
What are you doing, Alex?
Why are you not keeping your shit cool?
You planted the Dicko being a bad Faithful to me,
because I didn't want to vote for Henry or Kirby.
You were like, "Do you know what I think would be smart,
"is if you vote out a bad Faithful".
Mm-hm. And that's...
And before Keira came in,
you grabbed me by the hands, and you were saying,
"I want to take you all the way to the end with me".
Because you're a... I thought you were a Faithful.
Yeah. But why are you now saying
to people you think I could be a Traitor?
I just find it really intriguing...
Why is she so upset?
..that you'd plant a seed...
Yesterday, she didn't say anything about this.
Why even, why even float my name?
I haven't told anyone you're a Traitor.
It seems a bit suspicious to me.
So where else can Alex hear this?
She can only hear it in the Conclave.
Alex...
..I have not said your name.
I just think it's obvious now...
..that Alex is a Traitor.
Why are you now saying to people you think I could be a Traitor?
Why even, why even float my name?
The way that Alex is acting is so unexpected,
and I think it's super dangerous.
That's why I worry about you. It just puts eyes on you,
and when it puts eyes on you,
it puts eyes on me and Alvin,
and that's pretty scary.
I haven't told anyone you're a Traitor.
Who told you?
I want to figure out who the third Traitor is,
and when I find out,
I'm going for them tonight.
I haven't said you were a Traitor.
Who told you that?
This is, this is exactly what Traitors do.
I know it's come from your car,
that my name come up, in your vehicle.
Alex, the only time it popped up,
we were talking about who were smart players.
This is a five-way conversation.
The only person Alex could have heard her name from yesterday
had to have been in the car.
Like, who's the person?
I don't think Claudia's a Traitor,
and, also, Josh and Luke wouldn't be close to Kirby.
But this is, like, this is so easy to prove, Alex.
So, realistically,
I genuinely think it's Alvin.
Who's the person here I told?
This is too chaotic.
Alex,
who told you?
AJ is getting far too close.
I will... I'll talk to everyone. I think everyone's said
everyone's name, at some stage. No, no, but...
OK, guys, honestly, though,
there's three people left.
We've got Josh,
Krissy
and Rob. Anyone else?
Think it's out of Krissy and Rob.
I hope they all walk in.
(KNOCKING AT DOOR) Ah!
Oh, here we go, here we go!
That sounded like Krissy's knock.
That does... Hello!
(CHEERING)
(CHEERS FADE)
How are you, gorgeous?
Who's not here?
ALL: Rob! What?
Rob got merc'd.
I said it would be Rob.
I thought you were gone.
I thought I was coming in last,
and I thought you were gone.
Well, I knew Rob was a Faithful and I'm really upset about it.
So we're thinking Rob... Mm-hm.
..Josh or Luke.
Rob is the most dangerous player...
Mm. ..for us...
Mm. ..because now Dicko's gone,
and those other two boys are erratic...
Yep. ..Rob is their stability.
Mm-hm. But us getting rid of Dicko,
and then getting rid of Rob - is that too obvious?
He already suspects us... Mm.
..and if he decides to go throw our names to the boys...
Mm. ..they're two votes.
Yeah. But I think we take Rob out,
and we let the boys blow themselves up.
And see how they defend themselves.
Yeah?
Yep.
So it's decided?
I think so. We're going with Rob.
(MUSIC PLAYS)
# Come to claim my soul... #
Oof!
"Dear Rob, you have hereby been murdered.
"Yours faithfully, the Traitors".
Well, ain't that a peach?
I'm not surprised, but I am disappointed.
It is what it is.
Congratulations, Traitors, you know?
# I won't be there... #
Rob was so innocent. He was.
Did you ever suspect him?
I did suspect Rob as a Traitor one time,
but then after, like, he was so emotional
about losing Faithfuls, I just felt like I just can't.
He's too Faithful.
See, I suspected him last night before I voted out Dicko.
(KNOCKING AT DOOR)
Mum's here.
Prince! Oh, no!
Cher! Oh, no. What's happened?
Oh, God! Oh...
Has anyone seen my lions?
Without their accessories,
they look a little bit like
a border collie and an Alsatian.
Oh, no!
Oh!
Rob's been murdered.
I hope he hasn't been eaten by a lion.
Oh, vale, vale, Rob.
(THEY GASP)
Oh, my God! That's a bit much.
Not nice at all.
You know,
I brought the lions here...
..because we've had a problem with vermin.
Rats in the kitchen,
rats in the beds,
and now rats
in the breakfast room.
(NERVOUS GIGGLING)
I don't like rodents.
This is a place, and a game,
where you can be whatever and whoever you want.
You can be a lion.
You can be a rat.
We're big supporters of diversity.
(LAUGHTER)
Prince!
Cher!
I don't reckon there'll be actual rats.
# I saw the signs, but closed my eyes... #
Shall we have a chat?
# Believed in all your pretty lies... #
Who did you vote for last night?
I voted for Dicko.
I wasn't 100% sure that he is a Traitor,
but I hate it when people want to have a posse to protect them
and all that. Mm.
Well, that's why I voted for him.
I'm still rattled from my name being mentioned at Round Table,
and it's like, and I just don't like the idea
that it's just very, you know, like
the boys... Us versus them?
Yeah! Yes.
The twins are very well liked,
so I just want to create suspicion amidst the Faithfuls
that one of them could be a Traitor.
They talk over you and all that sort of stuff.
I feel that.
It's a boys' group. It's a boys' club.
But I felt, I felt... Thank you.
(CLOCK CHIMES)
I'm very close to Alvin in here. Yeah.
And I suspect him highly. Yeah.
Because his reason for voting for Henry and stuff
was so poor, and I was, like... Alvin's?
Yeah.
I may not have a lot to say at the Round Table,
but I can guarantee you I'm not swayed by any alliance.
My vote tonight
goes to you, Henry.
I'm a Faithful.
(SHE GASPS)
I feel like she's pretty dramatic anyway.
Yeah.
I don't want Alvin or Alex to go,
but all I can do is stand up for them,
but you can't do that too much.
I'm stuck in wet concrete.
Is Rhys close to anyone?
I'm trying to get it back on Rhys...
The humour's easier to hide behind.
Yeah.
..all while trying to stay out of it.
I would put money down
that minimum one...
Yeah. Yep.
..is in that group. I agree.
Minimum. Yep.
People come in every morning saying they've figured it out
every day. Yeah.
Alex? Yeah.
Can we chat? Yeah.
OK. Thank you. I need to talk to Alex.
I just need to tell her I think she's a Traitor,
and I need to give her a plan, I need to give her a hope.
I need to tell her that, even if you're a Traitor,
I'm still gonna be with you.
Let me open this for you. Thank you.
If I get Alex's trust,
and I'll see it, I'll see it with my own two eyes...
..I think I can go to the end with her.
OK, I just need to compose myself.
I feel I need to get myself together,
because I feel like breaking and being vulnerable is...
OK.
..it's like a sign of pressure.
There's one person... (EXHALES SHARPLY)
Give me a sec. Sorry.
(INHALES DEEPLY, EXHALES SHARPLY)
There's one person in this game that I really vibed with
straight away.
OK? Mm-hm.
It was you. Mm-hm.
I think you're really smart.
I think you're somebody who, in this game,
you can keep up with me. Mm-hm.
OK? Mm-hm.
If I tell you this, you have to promise,
like, I'm, like, I'm putting my heart with you right now,
OK? Mm-hm.
Like, I'm... No joke.
I have never said your name
because I know you're a Traitor.
(SHE SIGHS)
I feel naked.
That's the best way to describe it.
(SHE SNIFFS)
Because he's... He caught me.
(HE EXHALES SHARPLY)
Alex,
I have never said your name,
because I know you're a Traitor.
(SHE CHOKES)
What makes you think I'm a Traitor?
I know you can't say it, but can we just assume you are?
But how, how am I not to assume that you are?
He knows. (SHE SNIFFS)
I know he knows. I can see it in his eyes.
Let me finish, and then, I promise,
you can say whatever you want.
(TEARFULLY) I've known you're a Traitor for a while.
I also know Kirby's a Traitor.
I don't trust Kirby.
I trust you.
She's scared,
because she knows the only way I can get through this game
is with you.
Thank God talking logically makes me stop being sad.
What... There's a, there's a strategy,
OK, I promise there's a strategy.
Kirby's eventually going to turn on you.
I think you know that. I think the other Traitor in the turret
is closer to Kirby than with you.
I think you need me to take down Kirby.
How it works is - vote out a Traitor,
I tell you who I think we should recruit,
vote that person out.
We keep getting these Traitors.
It gets to the end.
Then you recruit me,
right at the end, when Kirby thinks she has me against you...
(SHE CLEARS THROAT)
..I turn on Kirby and I take out Kirby.
Mm.
But you keep assuming I'm a Traitor,
but you're not letting me speak.
I know you're a Traitor. Like, like, can we...
Alex...
# Are you my friend? #
..you're fine.
# My friend or my enemy? #
You're in a really good position. Don't blow it up.
# I keep both close to me... #
Because I need people to think you're a Faithful,
'cause at the end of the game,
when it's me and you as Traitors,
we can win the game together,
because nobody would ever think you're a Traitor.
I need to make sure that Alex feels like Kirby isn't with her.
She should be afraid of Kirby.
Kirby is going to throw Alex under the bus.
(HE EXHALES SHARPLY)
I'm just overwhelmed.
I'm tired. Think about the game.
Think about what Kirby's doing.
# I see you. #
You want a hug? Yeah!
OK.
# My friend and my enemy. #
AJ is so intelligent and smart.
But I could be very silly in trusting Kirby.
# It's all come down. #
I'm looking at you.
Maybe what AJ says is right,
and would work.
Maybe I need to lean into AJ.
Maybe I need to trust him.
# I hold the power now. #
Right now, I can serve up all three Traitors
on a platter to the rest of the Faithful.
But I need to be smart about this.
Oh, I'm excited. Whoo-hoo!
I haven't been in a car with you,
and I haven't been in a car with you. Let's do it.
I know, right? Let's go joyriding.
There is a road to winning this game,
but I need to protect Alex.
Rhys, I am not voting for you tonight.
Like 99.99%.
You don't have to let me know. It's a fun surprise.
Last night was a thrill.
I'm strong on Rhys,
but Alex is even, like... What about AJ?
..I think Alex is just as much.
I don't think AJ is a Traitor. You don't think?
Well, whatever he's doing, he's moving very suspect.
Look, for me, Rhys and Alex are at the top.
I think Rhys is at the top right now.
I am on Rhys.
100% sure that Luke has got me in his radar,
but he is hell-bent, at the moment,
to get either Alex or Rhys,
which is very, very dangerous, for us.
Oh, my God.
So we turn up to this mission today,
we are in this incredible scene,
mountains in the background,
and then, like, a cliff drop, almost.
I have no idea what Gretel has in store.
Guys, the mission today is to make as much money as we can.
The mission is a reset for me.
I need to recalibrate my brain.
I need to get into the money
for a bit of a refresh.
Welcome to Mount Horrible.
Oh... (LAUGHTER)
I named it after wife number two,
but it also describes
what you are about to endure.
Perfect. Great.
Now, obviously,
you're letting the Traitors get away with murder...
Mm. Yeah.
..so here is a chance to lift your game.
An effigy of each of you
was placed on top of this hill.
Unfortunately,
a powerful gust blew through here last night...
..and scattered the pieces all down the mountainside.
Oh...my...God!
Your mission today
is to retrieve the legs,
torso, and head,
place them together
on your post here.
There, they will be set ablaze.
What?!
For every effigy completed,
the group will receive $2,000.
If all 13 of your effigies are set alight,
you will receive a total of $26,000...
Whoo! Whoo-hoo!
We can do it!
..added to the prize pot.
We've gotta help each other. Yes.
You may only carry one piece per trip.
Josh and I, we're both injured.
I'm very disappointed,
because I believe I'd be one of the best in this mission,
and I just,
I'm not going to be able to perform.
Because I love you with all of my occasionally cold heart,
I have three shields for you today,
shields that can protect you from murder tonight.
I don't care about shields.
At this point, we all need to work to get money in the pot.
There is a twist, though. Mm. Always is.
I'll be awarding the shields to the effigies
completed first,
third,
and 12th. What?
What?! Eh!
Doesn't matter. It's irrelevant who gets a shield today.
You have 45 minutes to complete this mission.
On your mark, get set,
go! Alright, guys,
we need to talk strategy.
I'm an athlete.
My brain works in, like, a team-orientated way.
Alright, Kirby, go.
I think we do a human chain.
I think the boys stay at the top and you build the bodies.
You build whoever you want. Like, go to town...
Yep.
..and we just get all the money we can.
This cliff face is steep.
Luke and Josh are both injured.
Let them stay up top.
They can decide whose body they want to build first,
and they can decide where the shields go,
and the choice lies with them.
The first couple of people, let's go down,
'cause we've got to travel the furthest.
Yeah, I'm running.
Oh, my God. Are you kidding me?
Jesus!
Holy shit, that's a steep hill.
I've rarely seen a steeper hill.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
We need a couple of people up here with the boys...
I'll stay up here. ..to be able to run to the boys.
Keep this distance between us.
We just need the fittest people to be in the positions
where the running is, because it's going to be continuous.
One at a time! Yeah, human chain it!
Thank you. Go! Let's do this!
Come on! Are these all heads so far?
OK, first round coming!
Pass it, Kirby!
So my role within the mission is close to the top of the hill,
essentially passing whatever body parts I get
to either Claudia or Tully...
Oh, my God!
..and then they pass it to the boys near the effigy
and the boys are building it.
Go!
What is this? Is that a head?
Luke and I are both in an extremely powerful
position here.
We get to choose who gets three shields.
Here, here. Grab the next one.
Grab the next one. That's good.
We're factoring in who we can trust,
who haven't had shields... Josh, start building!
..so that other members in the group
aren't going to kick off about it.
Are they being built, Claudia?
No! Josh, start building them!
They said start building them. Yeah, I need legs to build.
I need legs. We need legs!
Need legs! TWINS: Legs!
We've got loads of heads. We need legs.
The legs are over there.
Oh, my gosh!
Far out!
You run them to the body
and then I'll bring 'em up.
Yeah. Good idea.
I was the bottom of the chain,
both metaphorically and literally.
So I'm not sure who's giving it up the top,
but hopefully I get lucky, and land one, three or 12.
Who should get one? AJ?
No, no. He'll be OK.
I'm picking Krissy to start. Yeah. Give Krissy one.
I want Krissy to have one. I don't care.
I do believe Krissy is a Faithful.
Alright, Krissy's first.
Krissy really has wanted a shield and hasn't had that yet.
Krissy... You carried the body up?
..I gave you one.
I built you first. Oh! My first shield.
I was just so chuffed.
I've got a shield!
35 minutes left! Let's go!
Kirby? Yeah. Kirby.
It's important that I don't give shields to people
who could be Traitors,
and of course, to myself and Luke,
because that would be greedy,
and then we'd have a target on our back.
Who should get the next one?
Tully. Tully. She's very sweet.
She's a clear-as-day Faithful.
Now we can just go random now. Yep.
Until the 12th. Yep.
30 minutes left. We're a third through.
We've done three out of 13. So right now,
we'll get nine out of 13 at this rate.
We're gonna have to pick it up.
30 minutes left!
A little bit better-looking, but it's not bad.
We need bodies!
Jesus Christ. We'd better get a shield.
I feel like if I'm doing this in the right headspace,
like I'm a Faithful, I desperately need a shield.
It helps with the concealment a little bit better.
Oh! Jesus!
I don't think I need a shield. I'm not fighting for that.
What I need to do in this mission is kind of
get a little bit more information,
see where Josh and Luke's head's at.
Hey, um,
I'm voting Alvin tonight.
Yeah. Same. Come on, Alvin, you can do it!
I'm sussing you, but I've been thinking,
and I think Rhys and Alex are also
on the board tonight.
Ah! Thank you.
Luke gave me the three names that he's kind of suspicious of.
It's those three. OK.
I want to go Alvin, personally.
I need Alex.
So I just need to convince Luke to go for Alvin.
Yeah, I think we're gonna get one tonight, AJ,
we're gonna get one tonight.
OK. We're gonna get one.
I just need to make sure this Alvin plan goes down.
Has to be Alvin, I swear.
Legs. Yep.
20 minutes left! 20 minutes left!
We have to find our own bodies,
up and down a hill...
..and then burn them. We're gonna have to pick it up.
We're not gonna run out of time.
We've got heaps of heads!
We need bodies and legs!
All I can say is
I know I'm gonna be sore tomorrow.
(SHE GROANS)
The heavy bitch!
I hope that's proving that I'm a Faithful.
Two more bodies next!
Oh, I hate the bodies!
This feels harder than pre-season.
This is so hard.
It's mental. Like, Lawson's down there,
sprinting with these things.
Chain needs to come down a bit more.
Come down a bit, Alex!
I'm going up and down,
passing, you know, limbs
and torsos and heads to Rhys...
Oh, my God, I'm sweating! (BREATHLESSLY) Yeah!
..who is about to go into cardiac arrest.
(HE BREATHES HEAVILY)
I honestly thought I was going to have to do,
like, a tactical vom.
Come on, guys! Five minutes!
Come on, we've gotta get it up there!
Keira.
Thank you. We're missing one head!
Shoot. I'll go.
No! I'm going!
No! This is for the shield.
Put it on Claudia, quick!
AJ, don't wait with him. Go, go, go!
Are we missing a head? Yes.
Yay!
Thank you. Ah, it's all good.
I believe Claudia is a Faithful.
They had a really hard run in Death Row,
and I believe they deserve it.
Did you get a shield? Yes!
I am so excited to have a shield.
My first shield.
Hey, everyone! The last head. This is it. This is it.
Whoo!
Ah!
Death Row
was good for something, I guess.
Holy smokes!
(LAUGHTER)
13 effigies will be burnt today.
(CHEERING)
You have earned $26,000 for the group.
(CHEERING)
We rock! Thanks to Kirby.
Thanks to us - it was a team effort.
A huge congratulations go to Krissy,
Tully,
and Claudia!
(CHEERING)
You will all sleep easy tonight,
guarded by the safety of your shields.
But here, mercy also comes with a caveat.
I have a little offer.
The prize pot currently stands
at a measly
$64,500.
Whoa.
It's not much.
So I will add $15,000 to the prize pot
for every shield returned to me.
ALL: Ooh!
That's a lot of money!
Of course!
We get the shield with the ultimatum.
Of course!
Yeah, don't feel... I feel so pressured.
Don't... Don't feel like,
no, don't feel like you have to do anything.
Here, have a shield,
but you're costing your team-mates $15,000.
Shield-holders...
what will it be?
It's an individual choice.
That's a lot of money. It's 45,000.
I'm giving mine up.
Krissy, you're an angel.
Krissy, for $15,000,
is giving up her shield.
I'm going to show everyone that I'm a Faithful,
I'm going to show everyone that I've got balls,
and I'm doing it for the team.
I'm going crazy!
Tully and Claudia, I need a decision.
RHYS: Who, what, is Tully and Claudia thinking,
they're, like, major players, going to get murdered?
Give the shield back! $30,000!
Do you know what? I have tried to make top ten
twice in different shows, and I'm always out number nine.
I'm going to keep it.
It goes against the grain to do anything that seems selfish,
but I'm trying this new thing where I put myself first
for once.
And, Claudia, what's your decision?
Well, I do want to get money for everyone,
'cause everyone has worked so hard,
but I need a good night's sleep,
so I think I'm gonna keep the shield,
and I'm sorry, and I love you guys.
Oh, don't apologise, honey. You're fine.
But I just, I just want to sleep.
You're OK.
Like, I feel crap,
I feel shit,
but everyone is so happy for me to keep this shield.
$30,000 is a lot of money,
and the fact that both of those girls
thought their lives were both worth $15,000?
Very selfish.
Tully, Claudia,
come get your shields.
It doesn't feel quite so sweet as I was hoping it to feel.
Personally, I would be giving up the shield,
but you know, I want to keep my allies close.
I believe they're Faithful, and I think they deserve it.
Why does no one else's come with a caveat?
Krissy, thank you for your sacrifice.
Whoo! Whoo!
For Krissy! (CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
You have added $15,000 to the prize pot.
Show me the money, Krissy! Whoo!
And now,
let us say goodbye
to the effigy that symbolises the old you.
Hm.
As you return to the manor,
please consider who you must become
to win this game.
Henchman!
Torch them!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS)
# Light it up, tear it down into the fire. #
We're in a game, after all.
Everyone is allowed to have a shield.
So the $15,000 was worth it.
# Into the fire
# Light it up, tear it down into the fire. #
Yeah, I get it.
And you worked hard for it, and you haven't had one.
Put it this way,
$15,000 for a night's sleep, I will take that.
I know! I said it's worth more than that, honestly.
Yeah.
(SHE SIGHS) Thanks, Alvin.
I think if we all kept the shields,
everyone would be like, "OK, yeah, absolutely.
"You guys do what you want".
But there had to be one goody-goody.
Wow! I just can't believe an extra $45,000
and we didn't take it.
Like that is insane, guys.
Those girls have just wasted
$30,000 for the pot.
They think their life is worth $30,000.
Would have you given your money up?
Yeah, I would have given my shield up.
Yeah.
I was just walking with Claudia, and I was, like,
"Are we going to pay for that decision?"
She goes, "No". She goes... (KIRBY GUFFAWS)
She goes, "You didn't know them a week ago".
She goes, "No. Absolutely not". (KIRBY LAUGHS)
Just "Absolutely not". She did not...
There was not a stroke of her that feels bad.
Do you see what I mean? And I'm like, "Oh, OK..."
Do you see what I mean with her?
I'm like, "Oh, yeah. Yep, I guess. Yep".
She's like, "No. You don't know them.
"No, that's my shield. That's your shield".
I was like, "OK!" Oi, that's cutthroat.
Anyways...
If I can get the Faithfuls
going guns blazing at Claudia...
..that would be ideal.
Getting to that fire, immediately!
Yeah, the fire!
I'm absolutely exhausted.
I'm just going to listen tonight.
Yeah, that's kind of my plan. And you know what, guys,
believe it or not, I've got nothing to say tonight.
Uh-uh! (SHE LAUGHS)
I'm playing the game currently,
a little bit of a herd mentality,
playing it safe and sort of jumping on bandwagons
at the moment.
I think everyone is more confused
than what we started the day with.
Can I talk to you? Yes.
But I trust Luke and I trust Josh.
What are your thoughts on Alex, honestly?
Alex? Yes.
Suss as. Yeah, I...
Luke is adamant that Alex is a Traitor,
but I have not really spoken to Josh.
So, Luke's going for Alex.
He's wrong.
You need to talk to him. I don't know where he is, but...
He's wrong. It's not my responsibility, but...
..he's deadset.
He's wrong. He's wrong.
I thought you were gung ho on Alex as well.
I can't see it. Oh, so he hasn't
spoken to you yet? No.
Because he was going to speak to you.
No. I can't see it. I refuse to see it.
I think Alex is, like, quite trustworthy,
from what I've gathered by being around her,
and I think she feels the same way about me,
so I believe my brother is on the wrong trail.
Luke's not always going to be correct, you know?
I know, and also I we probably aren't correct,
let's be honest, with our track record.
Yeah. We're just trying our best.
But, but mine, what I think, don't tell anyone,
Alvin, Rhys, Kirby, at the moment,
and everyone's just bypassed Kirby...
I'm not even kidding you, I'm not even kidding you,
they're my three.
I shit you not. Are you serious?
Yeah. Come on.
Yeah. I'm SO glad we're on the same page.
I will...
Right now, I am going to still vote for Rhys,
but I'm going to hear everyone at the Round Table,
so my decision may swerve.
I'm threading a needle
and I only have one go at it.
We need to be really careful how much we talk
like, privately like this, in front of Kirby.
No, I know.
I just want to tell you what's happening today,
or what I think is happening.
I'm bringing up Alvin's name to Alex,
because not only do I need her to trust me,
I need her to eventually make me a Traitor.
I've got at least three votes on Alvin.
I do think he's the third Traitor.
I think it's good to, you don't have to confirm anything,
I think it's good to give them a Traitor.
I'm going to try and get Claudia on Alvin as well,
if you think it's going to be close.
It's up to you, though. You're the one with the power.
You keep saying it like you're definitive
that I am one of them.
If I'm wrong, cool, but I'm, in my mind, I'm 100%.
I hate being in this position.
It feels dirty,
it feels yucky,
it feels like I'm betraying someone
and I don't know what to do.
I think we should go in and keep...
Yep. ..chatting with other people.
Are you OK? Yeah. I'm good.
Are you sure? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Please, please trust me.
(SHE LAUGHS) Please.
How do we trust anyone in this crazy place?
Through incentive and logic.
I'm asking so much from Alex right now.
OK.
But if I can just get Alvin tonight,
she's incentivised to keep me around,
and she's incentivised to work with me.
This is my only road to the end.
You OK? You wanna have a chat? I feel like I haven't seen you.
Yeah. I know! Wanna go to the ballroom?
Yeah, I'll have, I'll have a chat with you.
Cool.
Hey, I just wanted to let you know,
I'm gonna bring up your name tonight,
just as a heads-up. Is that OK?
What? Can we talk first, though?
Of course, of course. Yeah.
There's lots of heat.
Yeah.
I got you, I got you.
I was just told
by AJ that a lot of people are bringing Alvin.
(BLEEP)
I've always had my suspicions of you.
And he's pretty certain...
..of...
..all of us.
You're somebody who I never cleared.
I thought that I could have contained AJ,
but now it sort of feels like he,
he has put all the pieces together.
You know, I'm not saying it's conclusive,
I'm not saying you're 100% a Traitor, but I do...
This is scary. I just hope
that AJ hasn't gone into Alex's head.
I'm not, but I don't know how else to convince you.
Yeah.
I need to be able to trust Alex,
but when I look at her in the eyes,
I just don't know.
I just... Yeah.
I think everything is finally coming together.
If I can banish a Traitor,
I think I can convince everyone I'm a Faithful,
and that'll make a world of difference to me.
I feel like my back is against a wall.
There are other names being floated,
and I can only hope
that one of them gets over the line,
rather than Alvin.
He is kind, and thoughtful, and brilliant,
and I don't want to play this game without him,
but I feel like he is smart enough
to be able to argue his way out of it.
Welcome back to a very well-deserved sit-down
around the banishment table.
You've worked your little butts off today.
$41,000
added to the prize pot,
bringing your total
to $79,500.
Was it teamwork?
Was it individuals taking charge?
I'm sure each of you has a different perspective.
As we learned today...
..where there's smoke, there's fire...
..so your job is to determine
who here is burning way too bright...
..and who is secretly smouldering under their cloaks.
Who will speak first?
I'll speak first. Oh.
Ooh!
Luke, when you mentioned my name yesterday,
it was a wake-up call.
I've been sitting back.
I have two people in mind that I am unsure of.
So the first one was you, Rhys. Mm-hm.
I feel like every time I try to talk to you,
or anyone tries to talk to you,
you deflect with comedy.
This is gonna sound insane.
I am a hugely shy person.
I'm an introvert-extrovert, and all of you are new to me,
and the way that I get to know people
is I become the stand-up version of me,
and then I will slowly scale back, and scale back,
and that's why you can't get a read on me.
I just find that there's always a very brilliant argument
that you come up with for every sort of strategy of the murder.
That is suspicious behaviour,
and that's all I have to go with.
The second person that I want to find out more about
is you, Lawson...
..because you've been sitting very quietly,
until, when it comes to voting the name, you command the room.
Yeah.
I'm curious to know what your observations have been.
I have observed,
but I didn't want to stick my neck out too hard.
Sure. And the way I see it,
I would have played being a Traitor two ways,
and the first would have been, like your lovely self,
Alvin...
..beloved by all, but almost invisible,
in the shadows, but in many conversations,
and the friendly, unpredictable one,
and that's the first way I would have played as a Traitor.
And the second is your lovely self, AJ...
..the one-on-one chats and whatnot,
fingers in every pool,
and conversations with multiple people,
and knowledge about all.
Those are the two kind of styles I'd think could fit the mould.
So, I do a lot of watching,
and talking, and getting information,
and that's my style,
so fine to point it out.
Today, I am the most confident I have been...
..and I just got more confident.
I was coming in here, and I'm going for you, Alvin.
Yeah. I gave you a heads-up,
and you're the top of my list, and it just, it,
I'm so convinced now.
So I'm going to go through a couple of steps.
Sure. The way you've played the game
is very Traitor-esque.
You can sit back, and you've never had to really do anything.
Second thing is the challenge yesterday.
If I was the Traitors, I would put a Traitor in our group,
because you need to keep an eye on those five people.
I trust the boys.
I trust Claudia.
I know I'm not a Traitor.
That left you.
The third thing is,
when I gave you a heads-up today...
..I was really interested how you'd react.
I felt you were just like, "Oh, he got me,
"but I'm going to try and think of a way out of this".
Yeah. OK.
Every muscle of my body hurts,
and I'm so mentally exhausted,
I just... I, like, fine.
When you're tired and exhausted,
your knee-jerk reaction is always the truth,
and your knee-jerk reaction was, "He got me".
Alright.
like, he just couldn't say anything. He was deflated.
I'm deflated right now.
I'm exhausted even listening to this.
This is the last thing.
I'm going for you, right?
At no point did you even say that you were suspicious of me.
If you're a Traitor... Yeah.
..you know I'm a Faithful.
Yeah. You know not to be suspicious
of me. You wouldn't even try.
Being in a cooking show is nothing like this...
(LAUGHTER)
..by the way, so I'm so overwhelmed
by all the opinions that sort of get thrown,
and I just don't know what to say,
and all I could do is I'm literally
gathering information, and I've been slowly collecting.
Alex, last night when Dicko said that he was a Faithful,
I saw your reaction.
It looked fake to me.
I'm a really expressive person,
and I don't know really how to be any other way.
I just... And, like, if that comes across as fake to you,
then, sure.
I just, I have to speak what I see.
Yeah, I don't... That's... Alright. Yeah. I,
I don't see Alex in that way. I don't.
Yeah, I know you don't.
I mean, at this point in time, I can honestly say
I am not even 50% sure on anyone...
Mm-hm. Yeah. I agree.
..and I find you running around
like a chook with your head cut off...
Yeah. ..I find that
really disconcerting for me.
Does that mean you're a Traitor? I don't know.
I'm playing the game. I'm trying to gather information.
I'm trying to find Traitors. Like, would a Traitor do that?
No.
I feel like everything you do is so strategic,
to a point where I just feel my head's scrambled,
and even in the other day, in the kitchen,
and this is one thing that's really been playing on my mind,
he was talking to Alex, and I walked in.
Like, you said something to me that really made me
second-guess you.
I said, "Why don't you want to vote for Kirby?"
And you said, "Because I think she's a Traitor,
"protecting me".
OK, how about this?
(SHE SIGHS)
No, no. I'm making it simple. I want to make it really simple.
I think Alvin's a Traitor. OK?
If Alvin's a Traitor today, and he leaves...
Yeah. ..right, I'm clear, right?
Even you saying that feels manipulative.
"Let's vote for him"... I'm not manipulating anyone.
.."so if he's a Traitor, then I'm safe".
Like, I just feel like everything's so calculated,
and I don't roll like that.
Like, I would add to that,
that I have felt coerced by you.
Guys, I'm just, I'm playing the game.
I'm trying to find Traitors.
I'm, honestly, I'm here doing my best to find Traitors.
I think...
That's OK, but so are we. For sure.
We're all trying to find Traitors.
We're doing it right now. Yeah.
We just do it differently, I guess.
That's enough.
Uh-oh.
It's now time to vote.
Write down the name of the player
you want banished from the game.
I don't really know what's going on here.
I didn't expect to be copping this much heat.
I might go down the same way Henry did.
I just need people to believe me.
GRETEL: You will now,
one by one,
reveal your votes.
Kirby, who did you vote for, and why?
I'm sticking to what I'm noticing in players now,
and I'm just choosing to trust myself,
and I'm going to write Lawson, for those reasons,
and I think that he would be incredible as a Traitor.
About damn time.
(LAUGHTER)
Baby's first vote!
(LAUGHTER)
Alvin. I can't get past my suspicion
of you, Rhys, and that's why I'm voting you.
Josh. If I'm wrong on this one,
I'd feel terrible, 'cause I really, really like you...
Sure. ..Alvin,
but tonight I have voted for you.
Keira. I'm getting dizzy,
and my head's spinning,
and I just want it to stop,
so, AJ, I'm voting for you.
That's one vote for Lawson,
one for Rhys,
one for Alvin
and one for AJ.
Alex.
The person I'm voting for
is incredibly intelligent.
They are very good
at being invisible...
..and fading into the background.
I'm sorry, Alvin.
I voted for you.
Krissy.
I've thought Kirby from the start,
so that's why I'm voting you, Kirby.
All good.
Tully. For the first time in my life,
I've been keeping a journal, just so I don't go insane,
and the person that kept coming up as someone
that I was unsure of, uneasy of,
and that is AJ.
AJ.
Alvin, you are amazing. I want to say that first.
Second, I want to say I hope that, if Alvin's a Traitor,
it clears up a lot of what I'm doing, yeah?
That's three votes for Alvin,
two votes for AJ,
one vote for Lawson,
one vote for Rhys
and one vote for Kirby.
Luke.
I do think several Traitors voted for Dicko last night,
and I have to stick true to myself and what I saw.
Alex, I'm sorry. That's OK.
Don't take it personally. Mo, I don't take it personally.
It's fine. I just think
you're starting to crack,
and I do think you could potentially be a Traitor.
That's OK.
Rachael.
The only reason I'm putting this name down
is because he's the kindest, loveliest person ever,
and I think you would be an incredible Traitor,
and that is why I'm putting you, Lawson.
Claudia. I am voting for someone
who I absolutely adore,
nut I have been suspicious on since day one,
and I'm so sorry, Kirby.
It's OK.
Rhys.
I'm the same as everyone.
50%.
Uh, but I think it would be no surprise...
..I'm gonna say AJ.
That's three votes for AJ,
three votes for Alvin,
two votes for Lawson,
two votes for Kirby,
one vote for Rhys
and one vote for Alex.
There is one vote remaining.
Lawson, who did you vote for,
and why?
(HE EXHALES SHARPLY)
I haven't really struggled too much at Banishments until now...
but, um, I'll end it on a light-hearted note.
Um, I've never been with a man.
If I was to, one day,
I would want them...
to be exactly like...
..Alvin.
Oh!
Oh, my God!
It's like the kiss of death, Lawson.
(HE GROANS)
Alvin,
you have received the most votes
and are banished from the game.
Please join me here.
You absolute clowns!
Alvin,
before you leave this game forever,
please reveal if you are a Faithful or a Traitor.
So, in this dangerous game
of duplicity and deception,
I am so impressed
that I found beauty,
brains and brawn.
I have felt like an imposter all my life.
But you know the best thing
about having an imposter syndrome and what to do with it,
it's immersion therapy.
I'm a Traitor.
(SCREAMING AND CHEERING)
Traitor!
(YELLING CONTINUES)
Oh, my God!
I didn't know!
Hey, you!
Oh, my God, you had me, you had me!
AJ, AJ,
we're listening to AJ!
We got a Traitor! Wow!
That is insane!
The first Traitor
snuffed out by the fearless Faithful.
(SHE LAUGHS)
Congratulations.
You're not all as silly as you sometimes look.
(LAUGHTER)
Take time tonight
to enjoy yourselves,
and then,
lock your doors,
because the Traitors
will be out for revenge.
Oh, my God. Goodnight.
My conscience is weighing on me.
But I also feel like
it was naive of me to think that
we could be so strong
and just kind of
get through it together.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
I really adore Alvin,
and I really wanted to work with him the entire way.
You were so worried!
I almost thought it was you, too.
I thought I was dead.
(SHE SIGHS)
AJ's a pain in my arse.
Oh, my God! You spared me! (SHE LAUGHS)
He is just a snake.
If AJ thinks that manipulating Alex is going to protect him...
Oh, man!
..I don't think he realises, or remembers,
who I am.
I'm the Black Mamba.
(MUSIC PLAYS)
(CHEERING)
You're a legend. Thank you.
I love you so much.
Thank you. There's no one I trust more.
Thank you very much.
Honestly, guys, he's 100% a Faithful.
Well done. Thank you, guys.
Thank you. Well done, well done.
That's what we want!
Thank you.
It felt so good to get one.
Finally, we're on the right track.
We have gotten a Traitor.
Alvin was one hell of a Traitor.
Cheers to us!
(CHEERING)
People are gonna listen to me a little bit more
because I was correct with Alvin,
and I really, really do believe
I am on to Alex.
I'm figuring things out. (HE CHUCKLES)
I'm on a roll. AJ: It's a Survivor thing,
and I think Kirby can attest to this.
And it's not particularly about you, no. Don't worry.
Strategy. (SHE LAUGHS)
I am concerned, going to bed tonight,
that I could very well be murdered,
but that's the game.
I came in here with nothing to lose,
and I've got that attitude still.
Can I, can I say something, though?
I want to say in front of everyone,
I'm very sorry for calling you coercive.
We saw someone playing the game...
Yep. Yes.
..and doing it correctly... Yes.
..and I became suspicious of it,
and so I think that's, like, a lesson.
This changes everything.
I went from in the bin
to on top of the mountain.
Everybody knows I'm a Faithful.
I thought I was dead,
and I was coming up with what I was going to say on the way out.
If I got voted out there,
that would have been on me,
because I couldn't communicate with you all,
and I'm sorry,
and I'm going to try and do better.
I am pulling every string in this game right now.
I know the last two Traitors,
and I think I've done a really good job
of bringing Alex to my side.
You saved me. I can't...
You saved me. I can't speak.
I'm just really tired, but, yes.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Mm, it was the right thing to do.
Thank you for believing in me.
I do.
OK.
I trust you. I'm with you.
OK.
The pressure is mounting now.
I'm a Bachelor person.
I received roses,
and flirted with a guy,
and pashed at cocktail parties,
and now I have two huge,
huge game players.
One is on my side,
and the other is on the other side,
but he's on my side.
My gut tells me to listen to AJ.
I'm so tired...
..from winning! Goodnight, lovelies. Sleep well.
Goodnight, Lawson! (CHEERING)
For the first time,
there could be
conflict with Kirby...
..when it comes to what our next moves are.
Goodnight. Goodnight, guys.
Goodnight to every... See ya, Alvin.
(THEY CHUCKLE)
I'm exhausted.
# And so the call
# Of betrayal
# From the dark side. #
Oh! Alex!
My brain.
My brain
is like scrambled eggs.
I could see it. Mm.
Everyone could. (SHE SIGHS)
I have been stressed for you.
I had to do that, though.
Alex is under a little bit of pressure.
I think she's in a panic with AJ,
and I think it's super dangerous
for us as Traitors.
Are you good? Yeah. I'm good.
Don't come in to breakfast hot again!
Oh, you can't do that. I know.
You need that composure.
Yeah.
I am just done with AJ,
and I'm really hoping
Alex is on the same page.
You need to get back to your flirty self,
like, put on a show.
Alex needs to be logical and strategic.
Stay acting like a Faithful.
The boys are hot on you. Oh, yeah.
Luke is, especially.
Luke's hot on you, Josh is hot on me!
Can you contain this bloke?
Look... Oh!
It's not easy work.
It's gonna be beneficial to keep them...
Yes. ..for you,
'cause the boys are expecting you...
Yes. ..to go one of them,
because they're throwing your name.
Yes. The fact that they wake up
tomorrow... And they're safe.
..they might start questioning it.
Yeah.
That's a good idea,
because they're the most vocal.
(KNOCK AT DOOR)
Alvin. It had to happen.
Otherwise, it was going to be me, Gretel.
It's one or the other. Yeah.
Now, are you ready? Because tonight...
..you have a choice.
Oh, my God...
You can either murder a Faithful,
and reduce their numbers,
or
you can seduce a Faithful
and welcome them to your nest of deceit.
Your choices are in here.
Fill in the name
and the path you wish to take.
BOTH: Thank you.
There's so many variables to this.
If we go through our seduction list,
what does that look like, for you?
I did think Tully, for seduction.
Tully and I are actually really good friends
in the real world.
I would love to try
and seduce her over to the dark side.
I don't know if she'd be able to handle that pressure
of lying.
Mm. You know her.
I thought Claudia for seduction.
I did think Claudia, too.
The boys trust her.
She's one of them.
That little pocket rocket.
I know.
Do we...
..seduce...
..AJ...
..because he's hot...
Mm. ..on our tail?
Or is it safest for us
to murder him, do you think?
If we think of the flow-on effect...
..he has the trust of every Faithful.
That's not good for us...
