Can they catch a traitor? Episode six of The Traitors picked up on a cliffhanger from the last episode. Did a murder happen, or were all of the Faithfuls not tempted by a shield? Plus, who was banished? Find out who remained and who left on Season 4.
Hosted by Alan Cumming, the Peacock show has a group of people, with some of them being Faithfuls and some of them being Traitors. If the Faithfuls find the Traitors before the end of the game, they split the prize pot of $250,000. However, if there are any traitors left by the finale, they take home all of the money.
The 23 competitors this season are Donna Kelce, Porsha Williams (The Real Housewives of Atlanta), Caroline Stanbury (The Real Housewives of Dubai), Candiace Dillard Bassett (The Real Housewives of Potomac), Lisa Rinna (The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills), Dorinda Medley (The Real Housewives of New York), Ian Terry (Big Brother), Tiffany Mitchell (Big Brother), Rob Cesternino (Survivor), Natalie Anderson (Survivor), and Yamil “Yam Yam” Arocho (Survivor), Rob Rausch (Love Island USA), Maura Higgins (Love Island USA), Colton Underwood (The Bachelor), Kristen Kish (Top Chef), Eric Nam, Mark Ballas (Dancing With the Stars), Monét X Change (RuPaul’s Drag Race), Stephen Colletti (Laguna Beach), Michael Rapaport, Johnny Weir, Ron Funches, and Tara Lipinski.
Read on to find out who was eliminated in episode six with the closest vote yet. Tune in next week for episode seven.

Who are the traitors?
A twist this season was that the first traitor would be picked in front of everyone. The competitors had to stand in front of Cumming as he opened up a trunk. If it was empty, they were safe. If it had the traitor card in it, they became the first traitor. However, they weren’t revealed right away.
The other traitors picked at the round table were Candiace Dillard Bassett, Lisa Rinna, and Rob Rausch.
The fourth traitor remained a secret and did not meet the other traitors. They had the full say in who gets murdered and produced a short-list of people eligible for murder for the other traitors to decide. Donna Kelce was revealed to be the Secret Traitor and was banished in episode two, so the twist ended.
Who was eliminated from The Traitors?
Episode 6
Murdered: No one (No one took a shield in the previous challenge, so a murder did not happen)
In the challenge on this episode, the competitors had to decode clues to try to match them with the names on the gravestones outside of the shack they sat in. If they got it right, they banked more money for their team.
However, there were shields offered as well, but that caused them to lose money. Arocho wanted to take a shield, but everyone talked him out of it. Anderson suggested that if someone took a shield, they would be banished that night. The team wound up not taking any shields.
Underwood confronted Rinna and said that he thought she was a traitor because she voted out Williams, a fellow housewife, on the first Banishment. However, when it came time for the Round Table, other competitors had clues against Underwood and Funches.
The vote was the closest it has ever been.
Banished: Ron Funches (Faithful) with six votes (Rinna received five and Underwood received four)
Tension arose between the Traitors in the turret because Rausch voted for Rinna at the round table. She was only one vote away from being banished, but he said that everyone knows he is close to Funches and Underwood, and it would have looked weird to vote them out.
Cumming then told The Traitors that they were to do a murder in plain sight at the banquet he was hosting for everyone that night. One of the Traitors had to wear a brooch, and whoever they wanted to murder had to be the first one to touch it. That murder will happen on episode seven.
