The Traitors - ep 2 *spoilers*

[witchycat2]

A thread to discuss ep 2 ahead of tomorrow night.

I don't think the second episode was great, other than Linda's surprise survival. I liked Elen and felt sorry for her.

I hope they will manage to target Armani next time, she's quite annoying. Minah is doing a good job but I think Linda is really over acting.

I can’t find the second episode of Uncloaked but I’m really interested in what Elen will think of Charlotte’s fake Welshness

Armani is too confident and vocal.

And has annoyed her fellow traitors...
Minah, I think, is playing a blinder.

I always feel sorry for the faithfuls that get voted off early based purely on reacting in a different way. It's nerves.

The woman pretending to be Welsh has given herself too much to do.
Ex-army woman has an easier facade to keep up. It's just an "Oh what do you do?" once or twice. One lie, job done.
It's not like keeping up a different accent all the time which must be exhausting.

So we have six liars at the moment?

Charlotte pretending to be Welsh
Leanne pretending to be a nail technician
A priest keeping that quiet

And the three traitors.

It's fascinating!

Isn’t there someone else lying about their career, or was that one of the three that got off the train?

I’m sure there are more liars in there that we don’t know about yet.

I’d be really surprised if there isn’t at least one more relationship

Oh, yes, potentially a mother and son??

I can’t wait to see the inevitable moment where Armani’s sister votes she’s a traitor.

I'm listening to Uncloaked for this episode - Elen is so smart!

Yeah I thought this. If you're last in the door based on the previous series you should deduce that your name was considered and then everyone else could deduce that you are a faithful.

I really hope so, she is really irritating me and so over confident!

They don’t actually film it in that order, it’s edited so that’s how viewers see it

@ValentineBlack that would make sense!

Does anyone know when iplayer eps will drop? Ie wil they drop ep 3 tomorrow?

I think Friday may be episode 3 - they’re showing episode 2 live tomorrow

Armani isn’t self aware enough to survive as a traitor, Minah will push her hard and Linda is in such a vulnerable position she’d be mad not to help.

Linda is in such a vulnerable position she’d be mad not to help.

Agree, and if she does it may actually buy her an extra couple of days if it’s not a clean sweep vote

She's laying low right now but ANNA is playing the game well. She is sitting back and listening to the others but definitely connecting the dots in her head. I can see her winning.

Armani is doing my head in and is sooo brash and forward. I raised my eyebrows when she was saying the other trainers should do more! And then brazened herself out when Linda said someone had mentioned armanis name. I noticed minah didn't tell Armani a second person was questioning her as well.

Regarding the trials -If there was to be no murder, what would the benefit of the trainer's be in sabotaging it? Surely that just risks reducing the prize pot which is also in there interest to top up as much as possible AND if they were invested in the trial properly then it wouldn't raise a red flag the the faithfuls. 🤔 So sabotaging doesn't benefit them I don't think but could implicate them 🤔

Sabotaging helps the Traitors because if they can murder it reduces the number of Faithful and so gives the Traitors better odds.

Oh yea that's right. I think I was thinking if the trainers were being suspected it would be better to lay low and just contribute fully to the task.

I hope Kas doesn't get voted off next. He's reminds me of Amos from the first series, who was also a doctor and an all round good bloke. No one had a bad word against him.

Armani's behaviour will betray her sooner or later. I initially thought Minah was bland, but I think that has worked to her advantage, and good on her for ignoring Armani's "advice"! Her own sister has even said that something's off about her whole demeanour. Tyler was smart not to mention his suspicious of Armani at the round table, but suggested Kas to observe her at the round table. Please can she be banished next!

Next week can't come soon enough!

They don’t actually film it in that order, it’s edited so that’s how viewers see it

But don’t we see the room filling up, so the breakfast table gets fuller and fuller as each group arrives and people come in and take a seat? Eg one of the last groups came in and someone had to walk all the way round the table to find the spare seat? So the contestants must see that and be aware who came in last?

i’m a traitors geek, past contestants have said that they film dozens of takes of breakfast and it takes forever, so you see them coming in in every possible sequence so what we’re seeing on the screen is only one version of many, many entry combos that were filmed

Have watched episode 2

Is it ok to discuss spoilers?

They film and refilm each scene multiple times

It's different every time for them

Yes spoilers are fine on this thread
