03x01 - Episode 1

[bunniefuu]

Burgundy has been shaken up,
because not in the Netherlands...

but here at the French
chateau De Beguin...

have the Traitors settled down
to begin...

on their murderous adventure.

A treacherous company, yes.
That's for sure.

That, when necessary, will take
out the Faithful one by one...

by k*lling them.

And that is a task that
should not be underestimated.

A task that will be taken
very seriously this season.

If necessary, I will roll
over everything to win.

People do forget about
backstabbing at some point.

I think everyone thinks
I'm very sweet and nice now.

If you step on my tail,
I'll kick you.

I'll definitely have made
enemies by the end of the ride

But yeah, 'that's the game'.

If you do it right, you'll
be left on your own.

I hear sounds all around me
of people standing up.

I'm not alone here.

Then you immediately
feel the tension rising.

Nobody said anything.
You could barely hear people breathing.

When the lights go on,
I look around...

and I know quite a few people.

Herman den Blijker in 'The Traitors'.
I liked it very much.

Hello. Hi.

Now at the moment,
as I'm in it in that group...

Yes, I observe a little.

I am Herman. Who are you?
-Jordy.

I am Pernille.
-Maaike?

Pernille. What are you doing?
-I am from Kris Kross Amsterdam.

A DJ. Kris Kross Amsterdam.
-Oh, how cool.

So we're gonna get music
because of you? Yes.

Yes. And nice cooking here. Nice cooking.

Learning to play football.

How many teams are there?

Get used to the light.

Team Green.
-Yes.

Oh yes, of course. Oh yes.

The first thing I saw was Sunny.
Sunny is a documentary maker.

I really like her documentaries.

Beside her stood Katinka.

Sander from Kris Kross Amsterdam.

Giorgio and Jessie Maya.

So a very diverse group.

I think we looked at each
other like that for a while...

What are we doing here?

And now?

No.

The light went on and the
first one I see is Noor.

I did another program with Noor.
I think:

That's a familiar face.
That's nice.

I look next to me and
I see Dutch Performante.

I've known him for a long time,
so we immediately burst into laughter.

'Hey mate, are you here too?'

Then I thought, OK, at least two
faces I know. That's nice.

I'm Betty Glass from RTL Nieuws.
Reporter, journalist.

Look. Nice.
-I'm Maria and I'm a singer.

And presenter recently at AVROTROS.

I'm Jan Slagter from 'Broadcaster MAX'
-'Broadcaster MAX'? Nice.

I'm actually
terrified...

that there are people in it
that I know really well.

But fortunately that did not happen.

If I'm not playing with friends,
so with people I don't know...

I feel less loyalty to them.

We are Team Orange.
-Team Orange.

And now?
I don't know.

Now it's still fun.
-Indeed.

Now it's still fun.
Now we can still...

Welcome, everyone.

Future Faithful.

And Traitors.

Welcome to the most treacherous
mind game of your life.

I really am the
m*rder*d innocence.

I am a master traitor.

I'm willing to go far.

I'm going to listen
to the silences.

Heads are really going to roll.

I'm gonna cut your head off on this show.

For a game, I do everything to win.

It's the performance
of a lifetime.

I can't stand losing.

I'm very sweet.

This is not your
final destination.

OK.
This is just the beginning.

Your adventure starts here.

The first silver and,
perhaps more importantly...

the first keys to the armory
are waiting for you.

You will see a countdown clock.

Every time the clock
hits zero...

One of you can go outside.

You decide who that is.

But choose wisely, because
who do you trust the most?

The team that reaches the
assembly point the fastest...

gains access to the armory.

We can instantly win keys to the armory.

And of course I want to
go into the armory...

because I don't want to die
on the first day.

And then I'm not even
talking about the silver.

Because the earnings for this
first mission are not bad.

For every team that is
out in ten minutes...

you get two silver bars.

The mission starts now.

The clock is running, the clock is running.
Oh, the clock is running.

If you're thinking,
we've got three minutes...

and we all have to be
outside in ten minutes...

We are with six.
You would do that in 18 minutes.

So someone who's outside
can probably...

influence time.

We have to think about
why order is important.

Who do you trust the most?
-Who do you trust the most?

I don't know if I
can trust anyone.

That's very hard to say,
because it's a lot about human knowledge...

to see: who do I really
have in front of me?

Is it related to the
following mission?

Shall we send out the youngest?

How old are you?
-I'm 49.

I am, I think, the oldest.
-43.

26.

GEORGE: 32.
NOEL: 27.

Congratulations,
you got the gold belt.

That means you don't have
to play the first mission.

You may take ONE armory key...

and await the arrival
of your fellow candidates.

Well, one can't start
better, in my opinion.

I'm quite happy.

The show just started,
people don't blame you yet.

If you don't need to play a mission
after day three or four...

i would be bummed.
I would want to play that mission.

Because then you are with the group.
-Hey?

Very nice.
- Well, say. How nice.

I see Ferri.
We know each other.

I immediately think: Oh, nice.

That feels familiar, if you immediately
think you might have a buddy.

And it turns out we're the only two.

I find it super exciting.
-Yes, me too.

I think you are a dangerous opponent...

because you are very good at games.
I know that.

Maybe I'm not an opponent.

No, that's possible.
Of course we don't know that yet.

So we need someone
we don't just trust...

but we also need someone who is
fast and can find something.

He has games.
- He's smart, has games...

We all think Nathan.
-I'm okay with it.

So you go first.
Thanks for the trust.

I didn't immediately think:
I trust this group.

This group is for now my
group that we will do it with.

Face it. It's about the speed.

OK, Noor, go for it.
-I'm going to run.

Seven, six. go for it, mate.

I can run very well.

OK, can I go?

Go.
-See you guys.

Go.
-It's just one straight road.

A straight road?

Do you choose yourself or do you choose
the interests of the group?

If you see the key,
you can take it.

Then you can visit
the armory.

Press the red button and then
the next candidate can...

leave the room.'

Yes, 100. I'm going to that armory.

Or press the red button, then
the next one can go outside.

And they see...

No, wait, of course they see
that I grabbed one.

It's really a gamble.

You really have zero information.
-Zero.

People after me are going to grab it anyway,
because you want to go to that armory.

Because you don't want
to die first.

I'm going for that red button
right away. Didn't even hesitate.

Because I have gained confidence,
I want to show to them:

Hey, she can be trusted.

Oh, run.
-Go, go.

Is that equally important?
-And women and children?

Guys, quick. You have to go. Thomas.

100 percent. 100 percent.

They unanimously decided that I
should go out first...

because I was the youngest.
So 'I deserve this'.

What's happening?
Time is added.

Time was added.
-Now it's running again.

And suddenly time is added.

If you want the group to
get out as soon as possible...

then that's hell.

Hello.
Hello.

Hi.
-Hai. I'm Noor.

Hello. I'm Irene.
-Hi.

Hey man.
-What a good team you have.

Hello. Irene.
-Nathan.

Hi Nathan.
-Noor.

From Team Blue.
-Yes I see it.

sh*t, Nathan didn't do it.
'The Good Guy'.

Stupid. I'll go for the group anyway.

Zero. Go ahead.

'Press the red button'.

I grab a key.

I didn't have to read twice.

Hey, penalty time has been added.

Guys, when someone does
something wrong, time is added.

Do you hear that, Jordy?

Those aren't necessarily my friends...

but I hope they feel
some loyalty to me.

I don't feel so much loyalty to them.

sh*t.

No, I go for the interest of
the group. I press the red button.

Oh me.
-Yes Go, go.

What is this.
We just lost time.

He's also already here.

Guys, team Orange is complete.

We really are 'by far' the fastest.
Lounging in that armory for a while.

Then nothing can happen to us.

We won, so I'm happy about that.

Because Jessie
took a key...

We already knew we
weren't going to win.

Hi. Hi. Noel.

That's my brother.
-He's here too.

How are you?
Haven't seen you in a while.

My brother Sander
is also in the game.

I think that's awesome.

We're going to see what's going to happen.
We know each other through and through.

We are best friends
and also work together.

What color are you?
-Green.

What I said: As two brothers,
we are a threat together.

I think it's going to add
a weird dimension to this game.

I could certainly betray my brother.

If I have to, I'll stick
a dagger in his back too.

Hi.
You have the key.

b*tch.
-Hello, I saw it.

I thought: hello,
I don't want to die first.

In my group, Jessie went
straight for the key.

It immediately went into my head:
sh*t, what should I do now?

The key? Or do I have to press?

I blame her.

I immediately think of the group
when there is an assignment.

She has the opposite.
She thinks of herself.

It was only when I took the key
that I realized...

sh*t, if everyone presses that button
quickly, you'll be the first to go.

We got extra seconds,
we had to wait extra long.

No. That's too bad.

This is a point of attention.

Hello, with the whole group
and with Billy.

Good morning. Tijl Beckand here.
-Good morning, Tijl.

Good morning, Billy.
How is the atmosphere there?

How's the vibe, guys?
-Good.

We have a fantastic atmosphere.

It's so nice to hear that
you are happy and exuberant...

as ONE group.

Because I know from experience
how quickly that mood can change.

I would like to congratulate Team Orange...

with the first win.

Coincidentally, I am also there.
-Yes.

And whether that was within time
and what the merits are...

more about that later.

You are only at the beginning. This
was the warm-up. You get it.

You still have a lot of time
to get to know each other well...

for you are now going on a long journey
to France.

I'll see you in 'la douce France'.
"A tout a l'heure."

La douce France.
-Douce France.

'Au revoir'.
Well, guys, we're going to France.

'Au revoir'.

There is still trust
in this group...

but that will
change very soon...

because this group is going
to be torn apart.

Here's a game of squirming, boy.

It's serious.
It's 'The Traitors'.

It has begun. We have begun.

20 well-known Dutch people
are en route to France...

where they will immerse
themselves for a while...

in the bizarre world
of 'The Traitors'.

Still with no designated Traitors...

the first mission immediately
separated the wheat from the chaff.

Who thinks in the interest of the group
and who chooses for himself?

Last card.

I feel very much that
I trust you right away.

Yes.
-I don't have that with anyone else here.

I would like to tell you
that faith is not misplaced...

except when Tijl puts that
hand on my shoulder.

You said you don't really want it.
-No.

I guess I wouldn't be a good Traitor...

because I generally like
chasing more than running away.

Lying is also a thing with me.
But hey, you never know.

I think I'm going to talk
to you more about the game.

I may seek you.
-Good.

Yes?
-Yes, that's very good.

We let the people around us
go crazy and we just stay sharp.

My first reaction was:
I have to press that button...

because the group has to go outside.
-Then we'll get out sooner.

I only realized that later.
It really was immediately.

I only realized later:

Oh sh*t, we all need
to get out as soon as possible.

Because of Jessie's selfish actions...

our group doesn't all have
a key and I don't have a key.

'Don't f*ck with Tink'.

I just thought:

I can pick up a key now...

I was very much into myself:
what am I going to do?

But is that a big deal,
to choose the key?

If you don't know
what the consequences will be.

I'm not averse
to standing up for myself.

Sorry, but everyone
wanted to point the finger:

"Oh, you took the key."

Also with Jessie,
because she also took the key.

And I thought, sorry, guys,
take it easy.

I didn't know that time would add
if I took that key, did I?

Then of course I never
would have done it?

You have a key, I don't.

You don't know at all if you're
getting anything from that armory.

It doesn't matter.
-You can pretend.

You can pretend and
since no one knows...

The Traitors are not going
to risk...

to maybe k*ll someone
with a shield.

If there's something to be earned,
you have to earn it.

I don't mind. Fun. Exciting.

Are you suspicious?
-No, I'm very trusting.

You just said that, yes.
-Yes.

But who do you not trust
here at the table?

I think you're also
a bloodsucker in the game.

Just go. Full throttle.
-That Rotterdam mentality...

I'm not on the bus for nothing for ten hours.
You want to win, don't you?

I think you are very mean.
-Mean?

You can be very fanatical, I think.
- She and Selma, 100 percent.

What's with Selma?
-It's already starting.

I think Chahid knows I
will be a very smart player.

That's what I think.

You're just jealous because
I won at cards.

That's it. That hurts him.

I don't think Chahid
is a dangerous player per se...

but I think he is
a very impulsive player.

Really a loose blank that
you can sh**t right off.

It dawns on me:
we are in France.

We arrive after
quite a long journey.

We see flags of the Traitors there...

and finally we see the
illuminated, beautiful, historic chateau.

Oh dear.

How beautiful is that? Boys.
-Very cool.

I see Tijl.
On the stairs, on the stairs. Tijl.

I see an immense castle.
Beautifully lit.

And in the distance I see Tijl standing.

Dead silent.

Now we are really at the location
where it's going to happen.

I do find it relaxing.

'Bienvenue'. Did you
all have a good trip?

Long.

Want to get to know each other a little better?
-Yes.

It's been a long journey,
I understand...

but also a nice trip...

because there is still trust
in this group.

But that will change very soon...

because this group is going
to be torn apart.

And then a different dynamic emerges.

Who will you be dealing with? With
a friend, an enemy, a Traitor?

At a moment like that,
it goes through my mind: OK...

what's going to happen here?

The Traitors have the power
every night...

to k*ll a Faithful.

You have as a group...

every day, when the sun goes down,
the Round Table...

where you can make your voice heard.

And there you can expose
and banish a Traitor.

It is also the place where Traitors
can sow doubt and confusion.

Who is the smartest, the most cunning,
the most ruthless?

Who will run off with that mountain of silver
that can weigh up to 40 kilos?

The Faithfuls or a Traitor?

I immediately feel tension.
It has begun.

We have started.

Speaking of silver.

You started the day very early...

and as a team you had to
be outside within ten minutes.

Two kilos of silver could be
earned per team, so six in total.

The Orange Team did that
in eight minutes and four seconds.

Congratulations.

Two silver rolls. Two kilos.

They are real and
they are for the group.

It's a mediocre start,
let's just say.

Anyway, there are
some keys obtained...

and thus also access
to the armory.

Team Orange, come forward.

Here is your entrance
to the armory.

Congratulations.
That is already a good start.

This hurts.
- We really are the losers.

I'm already in a sticky
situation, because percentage wise...

out of 20 people,
12 go to the armory.

This is so good. This feels so good.

Anyway, it's
the only night...

on which I hope
you still sleep well.

Because after this it's over.

Tomorrow I will choose the Traitors.

'Bonne nuit.'

Thank you.
-Merci.

Merci.
-Au revoir.

This is really not normal. You can
have a game of writhing here, boy.

You can have a good gossip here.

I can feel all those nerves
rushing through my body...

because now I think: it is serious.
It's 'The Traitors'.

These are those portraits
that come to life.

I'm very afraid I'm going to
see all kinds of ghosts here.

You see those?
-Yeah, that happens sometimes.

But yes, you are in a castle,
so you can't help that.

I'm sitting next door.
If you see a ghost...

I'm going to claim it
and investigate further.

I'm going to claim this one.

I just hit the jackpot.

I just randomly walk
into a room.

That turns out to be the most
fantastic bridal suite...

or whatever it is to be.
Huge with two bathrooms.

Absurd.
-Is this your room?

Wow.

Sunny, I have a really scary room.

I'm really not going to sleep there.
I really don't dare.

That woman is 1.50 meters and sleeps
in a bed of three by three.

And I slept with
a baby cot next to me.

No. Just no.
It's really scary.

Would anyone like to trade?
It's a very big room.

OK, I'll come with you for a second.
-There is a baby cot.

It really was like
walking into a horror house.

I thought: I can't sleep here.
I really don't close an eye here.

Look. This is it.

Billy has a very small room,
he might want to trade.

I really wanted to help her,
but I thought:

no, or I won't sleep either.

I heard it's a horror room.
Want to switch?

And luckily Nathan came
to the rescue.

How sweet of you.

On the way there
I thought to myself:

I'm not going to let Noel
sleep in there.

I'm going to sleep in it 'no matter what'.

I'd like to trade with you.
-Oh my gosh.

Well, the most sincere hug...

anyone ever got in The Traitors.

Then I thought to myself:
I would make that choice just for this.

You really are the sweetest.
I'm going to remember this.

I am eternally grateful to Nathan...

and maybe I won't vote for him.

Oh my God. I almost cried.

Or maybe I do.

Something magical is about to happen.

An atmosphere in a group
will change completely.

I was wondering if I
should tell you...

but there was a group against you.
-Already?

How stupid.

The future Traitors and Faithful...

get up for the first and last time
without worry.

The all-important day has arrived.

The day of the designation
of the Traitors...

and, when night falls,
the first m*rder.

How did you sleep?
Slept well.

Too short, a little.
-Did you have a short night?

Didn't hear children cry?
-No, didn't hear children cry.

I was gone quickly.
Well, that looks good, guys.

I slept wonderfully.
I quickly fell asleep.

Of course with the bus trip we
had I could sleep well.

Maybe things have
happened all around me...

but I didn't get any of it.

Slept well?
-Yes.

You?
-Yes.

Morning.
Morning morning.

Hello.
-Good morning.

I wake up feeling like a mess.

Just cold and slept way too short...

but a light goes on in my head:
'It's game time, b*tches.'

I can go into the armory.
'So I think I'm safe.'

I want the shield...

because I'm somewhat afraid
that I'll still be k*lled.

My life is over.

No, I have nothing.

I open the door
and there is nothing. sh*t.

That's too bad.

I'm honestly afraid
I'm going to be out.

Because it could be
that 10 or 12 people...

can enter the armory.
-So much.

And then if you have eight
people left who don't...

and a few Traitors
among of them as well.

Unfortunately.

Then there is a small pool of
people who will be voted out.

It just doesn't feel right.
It really doesn't feel right...

because you just want into the armory,
especially those first episodes...

just to get through.
-Too bad.

That's dissapointing.

People who go into
the armory are protected.

Even if you don't have a key,
even if you don't take the shield...

because the Traitors are going to choose
someone who isn't in the armory

And you are also known
as a strong player.

Because of 'The Mole?'
-I think so.

People know that you're good at it.

I'm bummed. Absolutely.

I have no access to the
armory, no chance for a shield.

I want to go into the armory.

That's very beautiful.

Unbelievable. In ONE hit.

And that feels very comfortable.

Especially for the night to come,
that you don't die.

I have a feeling we're
clicking or something...

so I think it's useful
if we trust each other.

I have quite a few connections
with a some men...

so we can really help each other.

Which men do you have
a connection with? With the machos?

Yes, with the machos.
They are really... Yes.

They have a big mouth,
but are really sweet.

And they have a plan of...
-Do they have a plan yet?

Well, we do have a plan. And I
wanted to include you in it.

OK, thanks.

But then I have to be
able to trust you with this...

and know that you are not going
to share this with anyone else.

What is the plan then?

People go on Selma.

Because she is very smart.

She would be a super good Traitor,
be a super smart Faithful...

who drops a lot of bombs.

I honestly didn't expect...

that people were already suspicious...

before Traitors are chosen.

And she really notices everything.
-Yes? How do you know that?

Just. We played a card game
on the bus yesterday.

I really thought: wow.
I was a little intimidated.

And the rest too.

I need to think about this for a second.

I find it hard to go on her already.

There's nothing I suspect her about.

Do I have to go with that?
-It's smart if you participate.

I thought, no, we're not going
to let a group of men...

based on the fact
that a young woman is smart...

vote her out.
I think that's unfair.

I'm so curious right now.

In this program you will be
confused the most about the people.

They shouldn't take it personally.

Then you shouldn't participate
in the game, I think.

Do you take it personally?
-No nothing.

Only when people
say to my face: I'm not voting you out.

And then I get voted out.

I wouldn't like that.
-But that's personal.

But just say it
straight to my face.

Basically what I said.

Would you vote me out?
- No, no, just kidding.

If I can make a plot in this game...

and I'm getting everyone
to vote her out...

then it's not personal, but purely
because she can play this game well.

I thought: fellow Moroccan, I feel
something, but just nothing.

It's not cool, this.

But we just each other...

because I'm going along,
purely to save my own a*s.

You don't know.

Play by feel a bit.
A little strategic.

I think the first day
is really on feel.

I have no bond with him.

We're just talking.
Suddenly I see everyone watching.

Selma just has to
be out the first round.

Jess, come over.

Yes. Come here, my darling.
-With the women.

My darlings.

You need to be told something.
-Oh no, already? OK.

OK, so there's a plan.

To vote someone out of this Round Table.

Noor confided in me...

so I feel like
I'm breaking her trust.

On the other hand, I like Selma.

And I also notice it is why I think
I'm not good at this game...

because I can't keep things to myself.

I heard this.
-Against who?

To Selma.

And I don't think that's fair at all.

Wow, but there are
no suspicions at all yet.

That's why we don't think it's fair.

So it is just like this:
What is a weak link?

No, they think she's too strong.
-With the idea because she's so smart.

'Well, she is'. Are we going
to tell Selma about this?

That's what I asked.
-It's no use now.

In the sense of... I think you're
just making her restless.

I think first let's hear who the
Traitors are going to be in the first place.

What the hell. Oh, the game's already started.

SUNNY: Beforehand I thought:
I'm going to keep my cool.

Especially the first few days.
'Lay low'.

The first morning
I already go wrong.

How are you going?
-So far so good, I think.

You?
-I got too carried away.

With what?
-I thought: I'm going to keep calm.

So I had... I was wondering
if I should tell you...

but there was a plot against you.

Already?

While there isn't even
a Traitor yet.

Because people think you
would make a good Traitor.

It's a compliment in itself,
because you're smart.

And that was the idea,
but I didn't like it and I said:

No, I think that's unfair.

Who then?
-I think that's unfair to say.

I promise not to say.
-That does not matter.

The point is that there was,
or is, a group that wants to go on you.

Anyway, they are all men.
-Yes.

It probably comes from the dumbest?

I don't know, but I think it's unfair.

Definitely Chahid.

I don't know who came up with the plan.
- It's guaranteed from him.

He already made comments.
-What comments?

In the bus. Super weird.
'Yes, you are one of them.'

I have not exchanged a word with you.

I think this is because while
playing crazy eights...

I beat them three times in a row.

I swear, I think I
stepped on their ego so hard.

But yes, they play so stupid.

Anyway.

I'm just in shock
at how stupid people can be.

Don't say it until Traitors have been
identified. Then put it on the table.

'I think she's a good Traitor'
and Traitors have been appointed.

Now it is done on the basis of nothing.

And I personally
don't think that's smart...

and that shows that most people
are not smart either.

And the men show that again,
don't they.

Today is the day, huh?
-Do you hope you will be choosen?

I really think that if I
became a Traitor...

then you've got a really bad one.
I'm not a good liar.

I really just think I...
Well, okay.

So I hope not. You?

At first I thought I did...

but now that I know the group,
I don't think so anymore.

Traitor in this game
would suit me...

because I could lie if I had to.

I think without people
realizing it.

My little brother might be
a little more difficult...

but i know how to behave myself...

in order to fool him too.

The moment we walk
into that Round Table room...

I think: I can't do this,
I don't want this.

So nervous.

I'm going into this Round Table
with such intense nerves...

because I really,
really want to be choosen.

I really want to be a Traitor.

Because then I have
a little more grip on the game.

I'm sure I'll get
that hand on my shoulder...

so I think: come on,
I'm ready for it.

My heartbeat is in my neck.
Sweat pours down my back.

It's really a disaster.

And then you think:
you can't control it anymore.

People will be chosen.

This is it: the council chamber.

And you are sitting at the Round Table.

Where there is scheming
at other times of the day...

whispered secretly...

is this the place where you
can make your voice heard...

where where people confess.

Here and only here...

Traitors can be exposed
and banished.

It is important to the Faithful
that those Traitors are exposed.

Because I'll say it again:
We don't just play for the honor...

but also for a mountain of silver
that can reach up to 40 kilos.

If you don't get rid of those Traitors
and they reach the final...

even if only ONE reaches the final...

then the silver is for the Traitors.

If the Traitors are eliminated,
the silver is for the Faithful.

I'm here to win and not to lose.

Otherwise, I had better stay home.

Something magical will happen soon.

There will be a total change
in the atmosphere in a group.

Some of you will
be designated by me as Traitors.

I've had intense conversations
with all of you today.

And I've been shocked by
the fanaticism a few times...

with which was argued...

why some people
wanted to be traitors.

It has become clear to me:
The knives have been sharpened this season.

Chahid, what role do you see
for yourself?

The role of Faithful
or the role of Traitor?

Traitor.
I think I have that goodwill.

I'm good at throwing bombs.
Human knowledge. Overview.

And I draw my own plan.

I am a Traitor.
I became world champion this year...

so I know very well what it's like
to give everything for a cause.

In real life, Billy is a boy...

that you can rely on,
but I'm a Traitor.

Are you a Traitor?
-No.

No, I really wouldn't like it.

As a Faithful, I would
be more comfortable.

If you make me Traitor...

I really need to grab
myself by the throat.

Are you a Traitor?
-I do not know.

It could be one.

I am a Traitor.

I'm an artist.

An artist is by definition
a storyteller.

And a good storyteller breaks
into the mind of the spectator.

And I'm very good at my job.

If I have to, I can just lie.

Is it an advantage being
in this game with your brother?

I Don't know.
-I think two brothers...

are a unit that can give
an extra dimension to the game.

When you become a Traitor,
you play a role.

That's what I'm used to do
from the opera.

Absolutely.
-Back stabbing champion.

That's what it's about.

The way you come across to me now
has something of a puppet master.

It's you and below that all the people
whose brains you hacked.

Am I saying it right?
-Yes. That's the plan.

You are in a company...

where people intent to
break others psychologically.

It's a game.

But the game is going
to be played to the limit

I'm ready for the game.

100 percent.

NOEL: This group is super fanatic.

When the roles are divided,
it's 'game on'.

'No mercy.'

TIJL: If you
are later designated a Traitor...

know what you're getting yourself into.

It is important
that you embrace that role.

Just before the conclave,
I will ask you again...

Are you really willing...

to k*ll everyone.

SELMA: I really wouldn't mind
k*lling someone.

The faster they are out of the game,
the better.

That's what I would think, I swear.

Is that cold? That's not cold, is it?
No, that's not cold.

The better the Traitors work together...

and
slaughter the Faithful one by one...

the more likely
they are to make it to that final.

Yes, and then it could be...

that ONE person here in this group
commits the ultimate betrayal...

and makes off alone with the loot.

Betrayal in ordinary life,
that's not good.

But nothing but praise here.

There is a blindfold in front of you.

I'm going to ask you to
put that blindfold on properly...

and then I'm going to make my round.

If you feel my hand on your shoulder...

then you are a Traitor.

Don't you feel anything...

then you are a Faithful.

Only on my signal
are the blindfolds removed again.

The Traitors won't meet
until tonight at the first conclave.

NOOR: I can feel the nerves
rushing through my body.

I just want to be a Traitor,
one thousand percent.

TIJL: I'm going to ask you
to put on the blindfold.

And together with me...
-Here we go.

to step into the darkness.

JAN: There are three between us
that all say: It's not me.

isn't it you?
- It's really not me.

I have my eye on someone.
-Irene.

NOEL: That I'm not Faithful...
I'm Traitor.

Top this. Jeez. Stop.

TIJL: If you feel my hand
on your shoulder...

then you are a Traitor.

I'm going to ask you
to put on the blindfold.

And step with me...
-Here we go.

into the darkness.

SANDER: My heart beats
faster in my throat.

I've already set my sights
on being a Traitor.

BILLY: There's a lot of pressure
on you when you're Traitor.

But if you can't handle pressure,
you shouldn't participate in this program.

I am ready.

SUNNY: I'm quite afraid
of being Traitor.

I really don't want it.

I think they would immediately
be on to me.

TIJL: It probably feels quite strange.

Traveled all the way here from the Netherlands...

and then suddenly this happens.

'It's about to go down.'

NOOR: I feel that wind
as it moves past me.

I'm thinking, Goddammit, tap me
on the shoulder. Please.

I had to laugh. I liked it.

Something turned on in me.

'Bring it on. Bring it on.'

JESSIE: Every time he
walks past me, I think:

Oh my God, he's going
to grab my shoulder now.

And then he walks on.

KATINKA: The moment Tijl
put his hand on my shoulder...

I thought: he understood.

It just went exactly
as it was supposed to go.

I am satisfied with it.

SANDER: It explodes inside.

My heart rate is rising,
adrenaline is pumping through my body.

I have to control this.

TIJL: Well, there's no turning back.

At my signal, you take
off the blindfolds.

And then take a good look around the circle.

Evading eyes.
A twitch.

It can all mean something.
Or not.

Anyway...

from now on there will be
Traitors at the table.

SANDER: All thoughts go
through my head.

What should I do if
the blindfold comes off soon?

TIJL: Blindfolds may be removed from now on.

SANDER: I'm trying
to make eye contact...

also to show that I am confident...

and I am a Faithful,
but that's really, really hard.

FERRI: Then you start scanning
and things catch your eye.

I see quite a few things happening.

MARIA: Now is the time
for me to be exposed.

But neutral face.

I just went
on as a Faithful.

I am a Faithful, I am a
Faithful, I am a Faithful.

That's my mantra.

KATINKA: I think I'm
acting completely normal.

I don't think I'm giving anyone the impression
that I'm unreliable.

SANDER: I feel tight
with nerves and adrenaline.

I feel like I'm blushing,
I have big caps...

and everyone sees me.

BILLY: I found Sander very striking.

I looked at him.
All I saw was him sitting like an ice bunny.

JAN: I thought Sander
stood out and looked very stiff.

I find it much heavier
than I thought.

Jordy is sitting next to me and I feel I
can't handle his look yet.

But yes,
I have to look Jordy in the eye...

because I can't keep avoiding him.

So in a split second I grab it.

And I think right away:
does he realize it or not?

FERRI: I see Jordy
looking at his brother.

And I see his face twist,
because he sees something about his brother.

I look at Sandra.
He had a look like:

What should I do with this? I'm
not prepared for this at all.

I look at Chahid.
He sees that too...

and we have the understanding of:
sh*t, we both see the same thing.

TIJL: I can imagine
the tension…

has fallen off for many.

For the Traitors,
work well together.

KATINKA: I don't know who
my fellow Traitors are.

What I see is that the Traitors
who have been chosen...

seems to have worked out well so far...

because nothing stands out.

TIJL: For the Faithful,
be sharp.

Because if you let the Traitors
go through to the final...

everything is over.

But for now:

The game has really begun.

'Happy hunting'.

SANDER: I feel inside that I
haven't fully embraced my role yet.

That makes me insecure.
Can I do it?

Did I make the right choice by
presenting myself as a Traitor?

But yeah.

I have to pee right away.
SELMA: Did you find it so exciting?

SANDER: Quite.
-I am a Faithful.

Real? Yes, me too. Really, I swear.
-That's why I'm so calm now.

Otherwise I wouldn't have been so calm.

But now there are three between us...

who all say: No, it's not me.

SANDER: No, really not.
I really hoped so.

Yes?
-yes.

JORDY: I think I can see it
if Sander were lying...

but I think he's the best liar
of the two of us.

MARIA: What did you see?

I saw ONE thing first.
We have the brothers.

ONE brother saw from the other brother
that something was wrong.

Really and truly?

FERRI: He looked at him and thought:
Oh God, my brother.

"It's not me and you are."
That's how they looked at each other.

He thought: what am I supposed to do with this?

When you are completely relieved,
for you are Faithful, you are relaxed.

Rarely have I seen
anyone so stiff with tension.

I thought let me be Traitor...

because then I have
a little more control or something.

But he chose someone else.

I swear.

SANDER: It takes more effort
than I indicated beforehand.

Lie to him.

JORDY: You're going to test with each other now,
how good are your skills?

And we have never tested that,
so it will be a nice experience.

I wanted to say: All men.

I didn't see it from the women.
-Not at all.

MARIA: I think
I fit in so well with the group.

They confide in me,
they give me information.

It's wonderful to
confide in someone like you...

but it is dangerous.
Say, one of us is not to be trusted.

He talks that through in the tower.

And then we are the ones causing panic.
'Oops, we have to get rid of that.'

I'm glad you at least
wanted to tell me this.

It's... Yes, it's fun.

Would you also like...
- I had to spray some deodorant.

I have to go to the toilet.

I sat at that table and thought,
oh my God.

Yes, I had that too.

Sweat broke out on me. Really.

I like that it is...

Now we know what our roles are.
Right?

In any case, it is nice
that you know where you stand.

It does give me...

I think: OK, now vacation.

MARIA: So I was having a glass
of wine with Ferri and Chahid...

right after that Round Table.

They said an awkward
moment came between the brothers...

where Jordy looked at Sander
as if he saw through it...

and that was really a sign
to Chahid and Ferri that he must be one.

This is interesting.
-They shared that with me.

But there must also be a woman.

THOMAS: I'm in the library with Maria,
my ally, my Mate.

I still think a little...

Not sure if she would be one or not.

It is not you?
-It's really not me.

No way, Thomas.

You would do well.
-Is it you?

It's not me. No.

Thomas, I love you.

And it's so beautiful to see
how you trust me.

But it's unbelievable
how wrong you are.

It's not me.
I really want you to know that.

NOOR: OK, we really need to
discuss something, man.

Shall we sit here?

I'm getting all caught up now.

NOOR: I do have
ONE Traitor in my head...

of which many people say:
This is really a Traitor.

This is really between you and me...

but Sander is one thousand percent
a Traitor.

He's so nervous.
- Sander? Yes?

Not normal.

Really.
-He also had such eyes.

It looked like he
had been to a festival.

Anyway Sander, Jessie
and Katinka or Ferri.

OK. Nice, man. Great.

SANDER: I have constant tension from:

Don't people find out
I'm a Traitor?

I have someone in my head
who it is.

I'm almost 100 percent sure.

Sander says that he is
almost 100 percent sure.

That's the same thing Jordy thinks.
-We've got our eye on someone.

Do you want to share that or not?
SANDER: Irene.

Irene?

She was all white when
the blindfold came off.

No, you're serious.
JORDY: She was nervous.

After the Round Table she was quite a
bit white, as if she had been shocked.

So I thought, I'm going to use that
to make Irene suspicious.

If you're not one, why would you
be super nervous?

If you're not one, you think...
MARIA: It's a weight off your shoulders.

I really thought, where's the wine?

MARIA: I like it somehow...

that I don't know the other
Traitors yet.

But if it is Sander,
then you think:

Nice try, Sander,
but not good enough.

TIJL: You all have
a snack and a drink.

I hope you're having a good time.
The Traitors have been selected.

We ask you all one by one...

to designate ONE person as Traitor right now.

Extreme.
-How false.

Then I felt the tension coming.

I thought: breathe calmly through your nose,
exhale.

TIJL: Before the allegations
are made...

you'll all one by one...

tell the group in one minute
why you are a Faithful.

MARIA: I can't. I'm not going
to be able to get my words out.

I'm going to stammer.
I'm going to out myself.

TIJL: When everyone
has had their say...

Oh.
-So.

Then it's time
to grab your dagger...

to go to the wheel...

seek out the one you think
is a Traitor. And...

SANDER: This is my first action
as Traitor, a role I just got.

And then like that for the group
lying everything together...

gives quite a bit of stress.

Who can I give the floor first?

SELMA: I would like to go.

I am not a Traitor.

You can trust me like a pair
of beautiful blue eyes here.

It's not me.

I'm going now.

Sander.

Dear friends, I already see you
as friends.

I think I click with everyone,
that's how it feels to me.

SANDER IN CONFESSION: It's good
to call everyone a friend.

I wrap them up a bit with that.

If ONE person can read me
it's Jordy.

So if I lie about a
small thing, he already knows.

SANDER IN CONFESSION: I had
come up with a rhyme.

I am a Faithful.

That's why you
love me more and more.

SANDER IN CONFESSION: It
actually made no sense...

but I think I got
a few laughs on my hand.

And I had the feeling: mwah,
this is OK.

THOMAS: I am a Faithful.
I'm just gonna play the game.

I hope to go far
and please...

don't k*ll me tonight.

I am a Traitor.

I'm a very bad liar...

and my little brother looked at me and
knew it too. I can be trusted.

In front of all the Faithful...

telling for one minute:
I am a Faithful.

I find that really scary.

I was so nervous and
really thought: I don't want it.

Because I did say before
that I wanted to be Traitor.

So I'm very glad
that didn't happen.

That minute speech
goes well, fortunately.

I am a Faithful

"I love you all."
I want to fight for the silver.

And yes, we're going for it.

FERRI: When I look into her eyes,
I believe her.

If I had to choose now,
I would say: Mary is a Faithful.

NOEL: I am very relieved
that I am not a Faithful.

Or traitor.

Great. No, stop.

NOEL IN CONFESSION: Just sh*t.
I made a really stupid mistake.

It's not me.

I am a Faithful.

I really hope we
get to expose the Traitors...

and we can only do that together.

Power, control, manipulation,
that's all I'm not.

So I wish I could've done that once.

It's just frustrating.
-What?

I see nothing.
I can not see it.

What can't you see?
-Who are Traitors.

Katinka, go ahead.

KATINKA: I am a Faithful.

On the one hand, I'm quite a blabbermouth
and an open book...

so then it would be more fitting
to be a Faithful.

On the other hand, I also like
to trust other people.

And as a Faithful,
you cannot trust anyone.

When I didn't feel that hand...

there was a kind of weight lifted
off my shoulders.

Also suspicious.

Maybe something has changed...

in the suspicion
of someone in the head.

Anyway, now it's time to put
the cards on the table

Who can I give a dagger first?
Ferri.

Don't play an open card.
You shouldn't do that.
It's too dangerous.

BILLY: I think if you
expose all your cards now...

that you become prey.

JESSIE: So in the beginning of the game
you shouldn't play an open card.

You just shouldn't do that,
because it's not smart.

I don't think anyone
will vote for you...

but maybe you are
a perfect Traitor.

I'll give you the dagger, sorry.

TILE: Nathan.

A very sweet man,
so I don't trust it completely.

TIJL: It's Herman den Blijker.

They sometimes say:
'Keep your enemies close.'

TIJL: In his nose.
GIORGIO: I play it safe.

I just choose Billy,
my buddy.

Giorgio.

BILLY: We agreed
to stab each other.

That was the tactic
of not standing out.

I found him quite on his own.

TIJL: Nathan Rutjes.

This is the first woman
to die.

I'm sorry.

Maria, I think you're fantastic,
but please.

Jan.

May I?

Jan, whoever bounces the dagger...

Like that.

SANDER: Thomas.
-Giorgio.

It's too early in the game to
expose all your cards like this.

Noel.

Ferri.

Jan.
-Selma.

Yes.

It's for you, Noor.

This man had a really nice story
about brotherly love.

I don't believe that at all.

I think you could be
a really nice Traitor.

So, Sander, here you go.

TIJL: This day is over
for the Faithful.

And I'll see the Traitors later.

TILE: Katinka.
-Hi.

Good to see you again.
-Good evening.

The first phase of your master plan...

went satisfactorily.
-Very.Yes.

You're the first I speak to...

but you're also the one
I'm most sure of...

we're not really going
to have a conversation here...

whether you really want it or not.

Is that right?
-I am very convinced.

I am, I think,
some sort of master traitor.

Or 'I think', I know.
I am a master traitor.

TIJL: Then there's nothing left for me but...

to officially hand you
over your Traitorscape.

KATINKA: I'm going to do this
as the Traitor.

And that pile of silver
will soon be mine.

Then I wish you the best of luck
at the first conclave.

Thank you.

KATINKA: My fellow Traitors think
we are equal...

that we do this together,
but of course that is not the case.

Ultimately, the idea is…

that I will also betray my fellow Traitors.

TIJL: Sander.
-Hey, Tijl.

Good evening.
How have you been since you...

felt a hand on your shoulder?

Very good.
-Really? Oh, how nice.

I feel like a fish in water.
-OK.

And have you noticed anything
about your surroundings?

Zero.
-No?

No, zero. Even with Jordy zero.

I've talked to everyone
today, I think...

and no one suspects me
as Traitor anymore...

so I'm confident again
and I'm enjoying the game.

You have a big job...

and responsibility
resting on your shoulders.

Are you ready for it?
-Sure.

100 percent?
-100 percent.

Then it's up to me to
put the official Traitorscape on you.

SANDER: I don't doubt for a second
whether I want it or not.

I'm 100 percent sure.

I wish you much success
and wisdom at the first conclave.

Thank you.
-And we'll see each other later.

The hood can go up
so no one knows who you are.

Be strong.

SANDER: The moment I see
it's Katinka, I think:

she is a very good fellow Traitor.

How nice.
-I never expected
it to be you.

Isn't it great?
-Really zero.

Nobody notices this.
-I know.

Nobody.
-You're suspicious.

Why?
-I've heard your name a few times.

That people think:
it could be him.

MARIA: Hello, Tijl.

Maria.

How are you?

Good. I'm all on.

My brain is now very busy
planning all kinds of things...

and make plans...

and who I want out
and who I want to keep in.

The real work has yet to begin.

That's why I have to
officially ask you:

Are you ready for it?
-'I'm all in.'

May I hear one more time:
You are...

A Traitor.

MARIA: I am a very sweet person in everyday life.

And now I suddenly get
to be a dirty, fat, dirty Traitor.

Soon you will meet your colleagues.
Do you already have a suspicion?

I would really like
to play the game with a few people...

so if they are,
I'm jumping for joy.

If they aren't,
I want them out as soon as possible.

You are officially Traitor.

Thank you.

It has begun.
We can go k*ll.

Oh my God.
-I guessed you.

Why?

I just thought
you'd be a good one.

KATINKA: So no surprise
that she was there...

I suspect that people
will also guess this.

And that Sander
will follow a few days later.

That means I now
have a few days...

for to choose a fellow Traitor
or fellow Traitors...

I have confidence in.

I didn't guess you at all.
-I know. Nobody.

But I guessed you.
SANDER: Why?

Because you're already on people's
list.

KATINKA: I just told him that.
-Because there are two brothers?

No, because apparently there
has already been a situation...

where you've been slammed...

and Ferri and Chahid
noticed that.

Then suddenly Sander is next to you
and then you think: poop.

That's not good for the Traitors.

We are already a few points
behind, because he is already suspected.

And something immediately goes
on in me that I think:

I don't want to play with you.

I don't know Katinka.

I hardlyexchanged a word with her.

So I immediately feel
alone as a Traitor...

because I don't know
what to do with them.

So I think:
I will immediately take the lead.

Well, we have to be really smart now,
because, look...

People have gone to that armory.

So we can't m*rder those.
-Just put it aside right away.

I've made quite a strong bond
with Jessie, Selma, Noel, Thomas and me.

And since I've been Traitor
I find it very hard...

because I think they already see through me.

So I thought,
Thomas hasn't been in the armory anyway.

So if he got out,
it would be very good for me...

because then tomorrow the girls will think:

Maria couldn't have done that,
because we have such a strong bond.

So at least I have the confidence
of the girls back.

And can we, me and...

O.
-Hi.

Sorry, we were very busy conclave.
-You were deep in conclave, yes.

MARIA: Hello. Tijl, what are you doing?

TIJL: Are you happy
to be together now?

Yes.
SANDER: Yes.

Do you think that
in this formation...

m*rder the Faithful one by one?

I think we are smart enough.

TIJL: I have a message
for you.

Tonight...

no m*rder is committed.

What?

As you noticed,
no one was k*lled last night.

Instead of a m*rder,
you're going to draw up a k*ll list.

Access to the armory
is more important than ever.
