‘The Traitors: New Blood’ Episode 10 Preview

Heading into Episode 10, “The Sun, the Moon and the Truth,” 10 players remain and the Round Table that Episode 9 stopped short of is here. Joe Vanella and Katie Fites are the two Traitors still in the game, and Joe is under the most pressure after Victor Vollbrechthausen said he is certain Joe is a Traitor.

Victor holds a shield that protects him from murder, which he found at the cabin and kept to himself. Katie spent the day steering suspicion toward Wyatt Gillespie and Kriste Lewis, while Joe has said he expects to come out ahead of Victor.

Episode 10 is the last regular episode before the two-hour finale on November 19.

What Happened on ‘The Traitors: New Blood’ Last Week?

Need a refresher? Here’s what happened in Episode 9 of The Traitors: New Blood.

‘The Traitors’ Episode 9 Episode Recap

Episode 9, “Playing Chess,” opened at a Highland Feast hosted by Alan Cumming, a celebration after the Faithful banished their first Traitor. The players took turns explaining what the game meant to them.

Heading into the Round Table, Katie said she wanted to save Joe and had pointed other players toward Wyatt Gillespie and Kriste during the day. Victor said he was certain Joe was a Traitor, planned to win the group over and intended to block any push to vote for Kriste. Joe answered that it was him against Victor and that he planned to come out on top.

‘The Traitors’ Episode 9 Murder

The episode rewound to the confessional room, where Joe Vanella and Katie Fites received a note telling the Traitors to choose a Faithful to receive a poisoned chalice before the feast. The note added a twist: every player had to drink, but a player could swap glasses with someone else, and no murder would take place if a Traitor ended up drinking from the poisoned glass. Joe floated poisoning Victor Vollbrechthausen, and Katie argued that Victor would likely trade his drink away. They poisoned Morgan Cook’s chalice instead.

At the feast, Alan Cumming gave the players two minutes to trade before his toast, and each player drank from whichever glass they held at that point. As Katie predicted, Victor was sure his glass was the poisoned one and asked Joe and others to switch with him, but no one agreed. The only swap shown was between Shane Beatty and Joe. Morgan drank from the poisoned chalice and was murdered, and her exit was revealed at breakfast the next morning.

‘The Traitors’ Episode 9 Mission

The players went to a cabin in the woods for a summoning mission. Inside, a spirit named an item it wanted back, and the group had to find the right object and hand it over. Each correct item added $9,000 to the pot, while a wrong delivery meant the player who handed it over was dragged out of the cabin. A shield was also hidden inside.

The group delivered the right bottle in the first round but chose the wrong wedding dress in the second, which cost Jay Vinnedge his place in the rest of the mission. Abbey Benjamin retrieved the final item from a bathroom, bringing the total added to the pot to $18,000.

Between rounds, Victor Vollbrechthausen found the shield and pocketed it without telling anyone. The episode ended as the players sat down at the Round Table, before any votes were cast.

What is ‘The Traitors: New Blood’ About?

Hosted by Alan Cumming, The Traitors drops a group of players into a Scottish castle and secretly divides them into two groups: the Faithful and the Traitors.

All of the players work together on missions to build a shared prize pot. Throughout the game, the Faithful gather at the Round Table to try to identify the hidden Traitors, while the Traitors secretly murder Faithful players and continue pretending to be on their side. If every Traitor is identified and banished by the end, the Faithful split the pot. If even one Traitor survives, they take the whole thing.

Season 5, titled The Traitors: New Blood, is the first all-civilian season of the American series, with 22 everyday players chosen from more than 80,000 applicants. Players are competing for a pot worth up to $250,000, and for the first time an extra $15,000 is added every time the Faithful successfully banish a Traitor.

Earlier seasons featured a mix of reality stars and other recognizable public figures, many of whom entered the game with established personalities and reputations. This cast arrives with neither, giving everyone a fresh start in the competition.
