Hey, free subscribers—a reminder that The Traitors is heading behind the paywall. This is a smaller preview than normal, just because I don't want to send spoilers directly into anyone's email who hasn't actively subscribed for them. A reminder that you can get 10% off a yearly subscription through next week.


Yesterday, I pointed out that the effectiveness of season four’s big Secret Traitor twist would depend partly on the first few eliminations in the coming episodes. But I didn’t realize just how quickly things would move. In fact, by the halfway point in the third episode, the twist is over and done with entirely. As of now, there are only three traitors, and they’ll be choosing from a larger pool of potential victims (or more challenge-related shortlists), just like any other year.
