01x02 - The Five Suspects

[bunniefuu]

[suspenseful music playing]

[Peter] You will vote for the person
you think is the millionaire.

The person who receives the most votes
will go home tonight.

[dramatic sting]

As the millionaire,
I'm sitting here with three votes

because I did my secret agenda.

Initially, I was pretty confident
I may be temporarily safe,

but I'm on the chopping block.

So I tried to throw Harry under the bus
and put a target on his back.

I hope enough people suspect him
because otherwise, I'm going home.

[dramatic music playing]

I have to admit,
I'm blindsided by the entire spot.

There's a chance I could go home,
but what I'm not is the millionaire.

I put it out there and told them
Lauren is very suspect,

and I hope everybody sees it.

[dramatic music continues]

We will collect your votes
and tally them up now.

[suspenseful music playing]

The cop in me thinks
Lauren is the millionaire,

and that's who I voted for.

But I do think I'm on the chopping block.

I'm just praying that five or six people
have a heart and decide to keep me in.

[Peter] Guests, a decision has been made.

It's time to reveal
who you think the millionaire is.

[suspenseful music continues]

I have in this bag right here
the key to the box you voted for.

You have chosen…

Harry as the millionaire.

[somber music playing]

Show everybody if you are,
in fact, the millionaire.

Zipola, folks.

You've all been played.

Every one of you just realized

you absolutely haven't a clue
what's going on.

And that, I enjoy.

[Peter] Harry, you are not our millionaire
and never will be.

Your stay here at The Stag is over.

[Harry] Good luck.

[melancholic music playing]

It sucks to be the first one sent out.

I did not think that I behaved
in a deceitful or nefarious way.

I mean, if you really all think that
I was that person, then good luck, folks.

You're gonna need it.

My compliments again to the chef.

[music continues]

Guests, there are 11 of you left.

The millionaire is still here,

which means one of you is lying.

Get some beauty sleep because tomorrow
another surprise awaits you.

I won. I won tonight.
Tonight I win, for sure.

But every second of this game that passes,

I realize just how important it is
to complete the secret agenda.

I feel like three votes instead of one
has allowed me to survive tonight.

And so I need to focus on
getting advantages.

That's a lot of power.

[music fades]

Now our speeches.

[all chuckling]

I think Harry eliminated himself, man.

No, but I'm just saying just in…

-In general…
-[Phil] Just in general, you know, so…

-We had a lot of reasons to suspect him.
-[Chris] Absolutely.

And now I wonder, did the real millionaire
have anything to do with those?

We know that the millionaire
was successful in their mission.

[Sydnee] But three extra votes,
that's wild.

It changes everything now.

My focus went from "Well, the millionaire,
eventually we'll get to them,"

to "We have to get them out,"

because they're gonna keep getting
all these advantages over us.

Well, I mean, ultimately,
are we looking at, how many is left, 11?

Or are we looking at the five?

[pensive music playing]

[Sam] In the last trophy room,

they actually had to choose six names
that they thought were the millionaire.

[Peter] You must pick a box that you
suspect has the million dollars inside.

I will reveal whether the money is in
one of those six boxes.

[Sam] Since Harry is gone,
so that leaves five suspects.

Phil, myself, Se Young, Lauren, and Corey.

After seeing what advantages
are capable of,

I have to be on the offense,
and I have to be strategic.

And I have to convince people
that the millionaire is Lauren.

Sit us down on a couch and grill us
because I have nothing to hide.

I don't have to lie. It's super difficult
to have to lie to people.

-Remember the lies.
-[Se Young] Yeah.

Remember the conversations you're having,

which seeds you're planting,
if people are planting them.

[Lydia] And the thing
we have to remember is,

you know, it's… it's now ten against one.

And the person that's a secret millionaire
didn't ask to be given it.

[dramatic music playing]

This sucks.

I've been thinking about
the elimination dinner.

I'm feeling guilt
because the lying feels really crappy.

I didn't want to be the millionaire
this early on in the game.

[crying]

All this that I'm doing,
all the lying I'm doing…

[sniffles] …feels just…

[sniffles]

[unsettling music playing]

-Ah, good morning.
-Hello. Good morning.

Millionaire.

Congratulations on being
such a fantastic liar.

Thank you.

[chuckling]

[Lauren chuckles]

Are you ready to receive
your secret agenda?

Yes, please.

If you're successful,

you'll have the choice
between two rewards.

You'll either be able to choose
three guests whose votes do not count

at the elimination dinner.

Or, if you survive the vote,

have the money move randomly
into another person's box.

[dramatic music intensifies]

[theme music playing]

-[lock clinks]
-[music ends]

[birds chirping]

So, Lauren, which one
are you gonna choose?

I don't want the money. Right now.

So move it.

Okay.

[Lauren] Oh my gosh.

I wouldn't have to live with
all of the pressure and stress

that this has put me under.

Plus, I can still get
the million dollars later.

Your secret agenda is the following.

Before the end of breakfast today,

you must use specific song titles casually
in a conversation.

All right.

But not while referencing the song…

-Mm-hmm.
-…lyrics, or music artist.

The song titles are…

-Do you wanna write these down?
-Yeah. [chuckling]

"Smooth Criminal."

"Every Rose Has Its Thorn."

"Don't Stop Believin'."

"Cry Me a River."

And finally, "You Need to Calm Down."

In order to win this game,

you must be able to have
your actions go undetected.

Now, remember, in order to move the money,

you not only have to complete your agenda,
but you also must survive elimination.

Good luck, millionaire.

For now.

[whispering] For now.

Okay.

[brooding indie rock music playing]

♪ One by one… ♪

I genuinely think
that Lauren is the millionaire.

"Smooth Criminal."

[Sam] I wish so badly
that I could say, "You guys.

Trust me. I know these things.

I'm a police officer."

And I can't.

So I need to figure out what I have to do
to prove to them that it's Lauren.

♪ One by, one-one-one by one ♪

-[Jaimi] My favorite part of the day.
-[Lauren] Oh.

-[Se Young chanting] Time to eat.
-[chuckling] My favorite part of the day.

-What have we got?
-[laughing] That dance.

I have until the end of breakfast
to get this done,

which is not giving me a lot of time.

And everybody is looking for odd behavior.

I just have to pray everybody is tired
and not paying attention.

-I started making sourdough.
-[gasps] Did you?

[Lauren] I'm one of those.

Some people take it so seriously,
it's like, "You Need to Calm Down."

-[chuckling] Yeah, yeah.
-Right? "You Need to Calm Down."

[Se Young] This is the first time
I've loaded up my plate.

I'm like, so hungry.

"Don't Stop Believin'" has to be
motivational in some way. [chuckles]

They kept saying, "Food's almost ready.
Food's almost ready."

-[Lydia] Mm-hmm.
-"Don't Stop Believin'" it's almost ready.

-[Jaimi chuckling]
-[Lauren groans]

[Jaimi] Ooh, I'm so hungry.

[Cara] ♪ So hungry ♪

[Phil] I think I know who it is,
but I don't want to tell everybody.

[indistinct chatter]

[Phil] It's Se Young.

Or at least I think
she's not the millionaire, so…

[Phil] I've been thinking about things,
trying to strategize.

And the millionaire
has to be Se Young. Why?

Because it was her idea to have people
who were in the trophy room select names

of those who were also in that room.

And I think that was the agenda.

You wanna put in one person
you suspect of the millionaire

and five people that you trust.

So I'm gonna choose Lauren.

I'm choosing Corey.

I guess I'm gonna take a page
out of her book.

I'll say Se Young.

[Phil] That coincides
with the advantage at the elimination.

The millionaire had three votes.

And how many extra votes was it?
Three, right?

If they would've got four,
there would've been four extra.

If they got five…
You get… you get what I'm saying?

Yeah. Nothing else makes sense.

Exactly.

[pensive music playing]

[Se Young] After, um, elimination dinner…

-[Lauren] Yeah.
-[Se Young] …I went to my room and cried.

-Thank you.
-Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry.

Thank you. Um, you're not the only one.

[Se Young] I was like,
"Why are we getting so emotional?"

Then, as soon as I went into my room…

[Cara chuckling] Oh, snap.
This is never good.

[Se Young] No, no, no. I don't want this.

-[all clamoring]
-I don't wanna see you.

Guests, last night,
you sent our first guest home.

Poor Harry.

The millionaire played you all.

[pensive music playing]

Keep your eyes open because this morning,

the millionaire received
another secret agenda.

Wow.

If they're successful,
they will win an advantage

at the next elimination dinner.

So look out for odd behavior.

Enjoy your breakfast.

I'm not hungry anymore.

[chuckling] Kind of k*lled my appetite.

[Sam] Oh my gosh. I have to have
my eyes on Lauren at all times,

because now that's who I think
is the millionaire.

I just hope
that she didn't complete the agenda.

It could be even as simple as someone
getting up for more food or, you know…

[Corey] Nobody in the house knows
what "odd behavior" means.

No idea because
we don't know each other enough.

They pulled the wool
over our eyes last time, right?

So whoever's doing this has to be
a "Smooth Criminal" to make that all work

in a very seamless way.

I wonder if everyone would be willing
to go around and say who they voted for.

-And, like, you know, count.
-I'm not.

It's like, it would let us math this out…
math it out a little bit more.

-I'm not doing it. Mm-mm.
-[Se Young] Okay.

Our votes were negated by the three votes
that the person got anyway.

-Exactly. That's what I was thinking.
-So it doesn't matter.

[Lauren] I mean, oh…

I mean, like, not to be a baby
about it, and, like, "Cry Me a River"…

But I don't want… I don't want to.

No, I know, I don't think you would.

[indistinct chatter]

I feel nervous for a few seconds

that Cara's giving me eyes
that I can't detect what's behind them.

And I get nervous for a moment
that maybe Cara's suspicious of me.

But I want this plan to move forward,
so I need this agenda to be complete.

Can I join you on this end?
I just want… I wanna know what's going on.

[Chris] I'm incredibly competitive
and playing to win.

But I play with integrity.

That's the one thing everyone has.

The second somebody's integrity
goes out the window…

-Gotcha.
-[Chris] For sure.

[Sam] Yes, I'm big on that. Big on that.

[Lauren] My heart is pounding.

[chuckling] I just have one left.

And time is ticking.
"Every Rose Has Its Thorn."

How does one casually drop that?

And the only one sitting
right next to me is Chris.

And he has a really great memory.
But I need to get this done.

[Corey] Like we said… that could have
also worked to her advantage

because she can either…
we don't know what's gonna happen.

They just said it's gonna slow it down.

-Want some eggs?
-No, I'm okay.

-[Chris] Struggling with energy?
-Eggs?

Advantages aren't just advantages, right?
Like "Every Rose Has Its Thorn."

[dramatic music playing]

Wow. I did it. Done.

Let me not get ahead of myself.

Now I need to survive this elimination.

Sydnee is the only person saying,
"Don't share information."

-"Don't do teamwork. Don't align."
-You're right. You're right.

It gives me indigestion. [chuckles]

In a social deduction game,
I think what's really integral is

make sure you build
those positive emotions with people

enough to keep you from being voted off.

And even though
Lauren could be the millionaire,

she is a very close friend.

Hi.

-[Jaimi] Y'all talking about me?
-No.

-No. We're talking about boys.
-[Jaimi] Oh.

[Phil] Who do you think it is?
Because you said you thought you knew.

Not that I thought I knew.

[Phil] At this point, I'm still a suspect.

And so my plan is to talk to Corey,
to talk to Chris, and talk to Sydnee,

and get the heat off me.

[pensive music playing]

I feel good about it being Se Young.

What if the challenge was

to get as many names of the people
who were in the trophy room in?

You got three of y'all to do it.
Does that make sense?

Oh my God. Se Young? Whoo!

How could I not see it?

The most important part for me personally
is protecting my peace.

So I'm super excited
because here's my chance to clear my name.

She's the reason
that we all threw our names in there.

She's the reason this train started.

-[Chris] Mm-hmm.
-You know, like the puppet master.

[Phil] Exactly, exactly.

[harp glissando plays]

[intercom chimes]

[Peter] Guests, it's time
for our next activity.

Please dress warm and meet me outside.

[suspenseful music playing]

Hello, friends.

-[all] Hello.
-We are friends, right?

-I like to think we are.
-[Jaimi] Do you now?

[all chuckling]

[Peter] You were all
incredibly off target last elimination,

so we are going to practice
sharpening your aim

in a clay pigeon sh**ting game.

[dramatic music playing]

You'll split into two teams,

and each of you will take turns
as the sh**ter representing your team.

The first team to hit three clays
wins access to the trophy room,

where they will get information
on the millionaire.

Let's choose our team captains.

[suspenseful music playing]

-The tigress, Lydia.
-[all cheer]

And the wolf…

-[all howling]
-[Peter] …Chris.

[guests applauding]

So I'm gonna flip a coin
to see who goes first.

I'm gonna say Lydia is heads.

And it's tails. It's Chris.

-Your team is first.
-Yep.

Team captains, let's choose our teams.

I've never touched a g*n before,
so I'm thinking to myself,

I'm not gonna be
very helpful in this game.

But people from the South
and people from the Midwest,

they're the ones who are hunting.

They're the ones who have the g*ns.
End of story.

So, Chris, you go first.

I'll take Kyle.

If my team wins,
I need people that I trust

to go into the trophy room
and get the next clue.

I will choose Se Young.

[Se Young] You sure?

[chuckling] 'Cause, uh… Thank you, Lydia.

[Chris] I'm gonna pick Sydnee.

[Lydia] Corey.

[Chris] I'll take Lauren.

[Lydia] I'd like Phil.

I'll take Jaimi.

[Lydia] Between Sam and Cara,

Sam is one of the people

that was on the list
in the first visit to the trophy room

who could be a millionaire.

I'll take Cara.

I'm gonna go home.
I'll see you guys later.

-[all laugh]
-Get over here.

I genuinely don't think
I'm gonna hit a single one.

Don't think that way.

Now for the really fun part. Let's sh**t!

[suspenseful music playing]

[Phil] Let's get it, Cor.

-[Se Young] You got it.
-[Cara] You got this.

[Corey] Pull.

-[Lydia] Ooh.
-[Cara] Okay. So close.

This thing is, like, this big. I thought
we were gonna have a big-a*s Frisbee.

This was this big.

Can someone bring me a drink?

-[Lauren] All right, Jaimi!
-[Sydnee] Let's go, Jaims.

[Jaimi] Pull.

-[all cheering]
-[Sam] Yeah! That's my girl!

[Peter] That's one for Chris' team.

[Lauren] Nice!

[Cara] You got this, Phil.

[Phil] I'm one of the suspects,

so I've got to get into the trophy room
so I can control my own destiny.

But the last g*n I played with
was Duck Hunt on Nintendo in 1989.

[Phil] Pull.

-[g*n fires]
-[all cheering]

[Corey] Good going, dawg.

Phillip, one point.

The score is now one to one.

-[Lauren] Go, Kyle!
-[Jaimi] Get it!

Me and my friends back home,
we sh**t skeet for fun all the time.

[Jaimi] All right, let's go, Kyle.

Pull.

[g*n fires]

[all] Ooh.

[Kyle] Missed it.

-[Cara] You got this.
-[Se Young] You got this, Lydia.

Let's go, Lydia.

Pull.

[g*n fires]

-[Cara] It's okay.
-[Phil groans]

Where's my drink?

-[Sam] Come on, Chris.
-[Sydnee] Let's go.

[Chris] Pull.

[g*n fires]

[Lauren] Little high, little high.

[Se Young] That makes me
feel so cool when I close it.

-[grunts]
-[Cara] Se Young, you got this, girl.

[Se Young] Pull.

[g*n fires]

Did it too early. [groans]

[Sam] Come on, Dakota.

It really goes to show you
video games do not translate

-to real life skills.
-[all chuckling]

-[Sydnee] Come on, girl.
-[Jaimi] Good luck, Lauren.

[Lauren] Being the millionaire,

my extra motivation
to get in the trophy room

is based on the fact that anything I know
is gonna help me see the big picture,

especially because I am a suspect.

Pull.

[g*n fires]

[all cheering]

[Jaimi] I'm hoping it up!

[Peter] That's two points
for Chris's team.

[Sam] Good job!

[Lauren] The North Dakota
is in me after all

because I have never shot
this weapon in my life.

-[Lydia] All right. Come on, show 'em.
-[Corey] Go, Cara.

I've never been around g*ns. I hate g*ns.

But I just keep telling myself
that I'll be okay.

[Corey] Let's go, Cara.

[inhales sharply] Hoo.

[chuckles sadly] Um…

[voice breaking] My brother was
m*rder*d unexpectedly when he was 14.

[pensive music playing]

And it was just something
that was so devastating.

But my brother was a badass…

[chuckling] …and he would be so pissed

if I did not do this challenge

and I walked away.

[intense music playing]

[Peter] Here we go.

You got form, Cara.

[Cara] Pull.

[music stops abruptly]

[g*n fires]

-[all cheering]
-[Peter] Oh yeah!

[Se Young] Yay!

[cheering continues]

-Yes.
-[Lydia] Way to go, Cara!

That's two for Lydia's team.

It's your first time sh**ting, right?
That's amazing.

-[Jaimi] Get it, girl!
-[Se Young] That was incredible.

[Cara] I'm trying to be excited,
but it's hard.

And it just, like, is so crazy

because I know it was my brother
watching down on me.

I didn't share it with anyone
just because letting a secret out

about our personal lives
can get you in trouble.

But I'm really proud of myself
for getting through it, and…

[sniffles] Yeah.

-[Sam] All right, Sydnee.
-[Lauren] We want one.

[Peter] Sydnee can win it
right here with a hit.

[tense music playing]

[Sydnee] Pull.

[g*n fires]

-Oh, Sydnee.
-[Corey] Better luck next time.

-[Lauren] We got time.
-[Se Young] That was close.

[Phil] Let's get it, Cor.

[Lydia] Corey, you got this.

Pull.

[g*n fires]

-[all groaning]
-[Lydia] Oh my gosh!

[Cara] Holy cow, so close.

-[Chris] That was close.
-Gotta be kidding.

[Sydnee clapping] All right, Sam.

[Sam] I'm still on the list of suspects.

So if there's any time to shine,
it's gonna be now.

As a cop,
I carry a g*n every single day at work.

Pull.

[g*n fires]

Damn. I don't know.

[Se Young] You got this, Phil.

[Cara] You're gonna hit it. You got it.

Come on, Phil, close us out.

[Phil] Pull.

[g*n fires]

-[Phil groans]
-[Se Young] Good job, Phil.

-[Lauren] Ladies got it. We got it.
-[Sydnee] End this here, Jaims.

Jaimi. Let's see if she can do it again.

-[Sydnee] Let's go.
-[Sam] All right, Jaimi.

[Peter] Team's relying on her.
One more shot and they win.

[Jaimi] Pull.

[g*n fires]

[all cheering]

-[Lauren] Jaimi!
-Fantastic!

[Jaimi] I am so happy
that I was able to juice my team,

so I get to go to the trophy room.
And I'm so excited.

Congratulations to Chris, Kyle,
Jaimi, Sydnee, Lauren, and Sam.

You have gained access to the trophy room,

where you will learn information
on the millionaire.

-[whistles]
-[Peter] To the rest of you,

I suggest you up the ante
on your hunt for the millionaire

because your second elimination dinner
is looming.

Happy hunting.

[dramatic music playing]

[Se Young] What a day.

-[Kyle] Jaimi…
-[Jaimi] Yes.

…you're the hero of the moment.

-[all clapping]
-[Cara] You did that.

It was so fun. [chuckling]

We've cut the suspects down
to five people.

Lauren, Se Young, Corey, Sam, or Phil.

So the trophy room
is gonna be absolutely critical

for figuring out who the millionaire is.

Hi. You're in here all alone.
You know how to play this game?

-I don't. I feel like I need to learn.
-[chuckling]

[dramatic whoosh]

[Lauren] I want to move the money around.

So I need to get more tactical
and I need to get more strategic

and see what name is being floated around.

The entire day, I haven't clocked anything
that was like… Did you?

Okay, so not today, but think back
on everything that happened.

Three votes. Three is significant.

So there had to be something else
where a… a number three

played out for them to earn those three.

[pensive music playing]

My initial thinking was it's somebody
who knows how to game play,

who can be next-level thinking.

-Se Young's super smart.
-Very smart.

Very strategic with this.

Do you think it's Se Young?

Yes, but then it's like,
see, it's hard because I…

Yeah. For you, it's the only one
that's making sense. Is that correct?

I think I am absolutely hiding
in plain sight right now. [chuckling]

Unfortunately, I think
I have to target Se Young.

I feel horrible, but this is a game…

[whispering] …and I can play people
better than almost anyone here.

I think that very easily could be it.

Yeah.

-[Chris] So, um, trophy room?
-It's your first time going in.

-My first time.
-[Jaimi] First time.

-[Kyle] Mine as well.
-[Chris] Four first-timers.

[Corey] And I'm gonna throw it out there.

-Don't let someone dictate your decisions.
-[Jaimi] Yeah.

[Corey] I personally feel
like somebody else…

-[Jaimi] Influenced the way you voted.
-…dictated everybody else's decision.

Se Young is picking up books
and she's looking underneath plates

and looking for clues.

I'm sitting back doing one of these.

Hmm.

This is suspicious.
It looks like an agenda to me.

-Why do you keep looking under there?
-Just a stupid… thing that you threw out.

[menacing music playing]

[harp glissando plays]

[intercom chimes]

[Peter] Guests, in ten minutes,
will the winners from yesterday's activity

please come to the trophy room.

[Chris] Right now I would say I have
a very flimsy assumption on anybody.

-I wanna see what the trophy room says.
-[Lydia] Yeah.

[Sam] I'm about to go
into the trophy room,

and I'm gonna assume that
we have to choose one person

to hear the clue.

I don't want that person to be Lauren.

Even though I haven't really seen
any odd behavior,

it seems like she's right there
in your face hiding in plain sight.

Okay. I know this sounds weird,

but I was, like, doing meditation,

where you sit quietly
and you ask questions

and you rock back and forth
or side to side.

And one person just kept coming back,
and I just got chills.

Lauren.

[dramatic sting]

[sighs] Maybe it's because
she's so, like, too much.

Lauren gives me nervous energy.
Like, I have to preserve what's happening.

Is that… Is that just hiding
in plain sight?

That, to me, almost feels too obvious.
Just being honest.

But she has never once
come up with, like, a strat.

-Ooh.
-[Se Young] Know what I mean?

-Not a single time.
-[Kyle] That is true.

-[Sam] Right.
-But like, she's so kind to me.

[Chris] I know,
she's the nicest person in the house.

-I like you all, but she's so nice.
-[Sam] She's the sweetest.

You're too close to her.
You can't talk to her because…

Yeah.

Being on the list of five suspects,

the conversation that's happening
is making me feel really safe.

But I don't want to vote for Lauren,

so I'm really hoping people come in
suspicious of somebody else.

[whispering] It's driving me insane.

I will think about that a lot today.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Chris] Going to the trophy room,

I see a lot of merit to that theory
that it could be Lauren.

She's just not making big gameplay moves.

Also, she's on the list,
and she hasn't proven that it's not her.

[Lauren chuckling] I'm really nervous

because I have no idea
what's gonna be said,

and I'm worried about the next clue
'cause it could put a target on my back.

[Peter] The trophy room.

Isn't it lovely by candlelight?

Because of your hard work,
you will receive a clue

that will help you smoke out
the millionaire.

However, only one of you will receive it.

You all must decide
who that person is now.

[Jaimi] What are you thinking, guys…

Yeah, I mean,
do you guys wanna… wanna vote?

I know I'm not gonna be
the person chosen for that advantage

because I'm one of those people
who could be the millionaire.

But I at least believe Chris
would be honest with the information

this early on in the game.

As long as it's not Lauren.

I think Chris for this one.

I'm okay taking it.

Guys, this is not the end game yet.
We're still in the early days.

Like, I can't violate the trust just yet.

[dramatic whoosh]

[Lauren] I'm trying to act
as normal as possible

because I don't want to draw suspicion
to myself that doesn't need to be there.

You popped up first in my spirit, so…

[Lauren] Okay.

I trust you.

-[Jaimi] Okay.
-I trust you too. Okay.

Have you made a choice
on who you would like to receive the clue?

[all] Chris.

[Peter] Chris. Okay.

So thank you.
And could the rest of you please leave?

[pensive music playing]

You got this, Chris.

Chris. They clearly all trust you.

They do. They do,
and I take that very seriously.

Who do you think it is?

I have… a hunch.

-[Se Young] Are you guys done?
-Chris.

[Se Young groans]

[Chris] We're looking at somebody

who's likely to cover up
sinister means with a smile.

If I was the millionaire,
I'd be nice, I'd be smiling,

I'd be friendly with everybody,

and I would be holding a knife
in my back pocket.

So I think it's Lauren.

You think it's Lauren?

[Chris] I think she's the person
people would least suspect.

Okay. So here is the clue
about the millionaire.

The millionaire was working on their
secret agenda at yesterday's breakfast

with all of you there,

and it was a smash hit.

Okay.

And that's for you to share
or keep secret as you desire.

Happy hunting.

Thank you.

I'm going back, and I'm sharing the clue
word-for-word with everyone present,

and we'll see how that works out for me.

Good luck.

[Chris] Hopefully, I'll be able to see
people's tells or changes in behavior.

[suspenseful music playing]

[all cheering]

[Se Young] Chris, what is it?
Tell us. Tell us everything.

[Chris] So I'm just gonna
get right into it.

The clue is that the millionaire
was working on their secret mission

yesterday during breakfast

with everybody present,
and it was a smash hit.

-That's the clue.
-[Sydnee] Everybody?

-[Jaimi] What did we…
-That's the clue.

-A smash hit?
-[Chris] That's the clue.

[Sam] What about music?

-[Se Young] Smash hit, music, makes sense.
-[Sydnee] I like music.

In my mind, it is so clearly me.

If any one of the people
that I said these to remembers,

I'm toast. [chuckles]

It could just be m… mentioning
an album title. It could be anything.

When I hear smash, the first thing
I think of is, like, a noise.

Like, did anyone make, like, smash…

-So, so, so…
-[Cara] No one broke a glass?

[Chris] So I'll tell you
where my head was at

was what people were eating for breakfast…

-[Sam] Really?
-…and what they were drinking.

If smash is in a type of food,
something like that.

-What, like smashing your avocados?
-That's what I was thinking.

-But you're not on the list.
-[Jaimi] I smashed avocados in my eggs.

Well… Well, so one idea that I had
was why don't we sit

where we sat yesterday
during breakfast right now

and just try to, like,
get in the headspace

-of who you were talking to.
-I don't even remember.

I was sitting there.

[Sydnee] I was here and here,
and Corey was over here.

Where did I sit in breakfast?
I think I was on that side.

[Jaimi] I do feel like I remember that.

[Se Young] Where was I? Here?

No, no, no. Se Young, here.

-[Se Young] Really?
-Somebody on this side.

Nah, Se Young, you can't…
you can't do that, man. You can't do that.

[pensive music playing]

Your memory is freaking impeccable,

but you can't remember
where you were sitting yesterday?

It's just not making sense.

Phil, listen, it's because on…

[Se Young sighs sharply]

[Se Young weeping]
In the morning when I came back,

-I was in a mood--
-[Phil] What does that have to do with--

No, I'm saying that's why
I wasn't paying attention at breakfast.

I'm just trying to… For me, it's like,
okay, you remember all of these things,

but you can't remember
where you were sitting.

I understand that it looks suspicious.
I wish I remember. I'm so sorry.

[sobbing]

I, um… I need a minute, man.

-[Se Young] Sorry, sorry.
-Because I'm not for the…

-I'm not being emotional on purpose.
-I'm not saying you're emotional.

It's just that… I'm just… It's just…

I need a minute.

I know. I should remember because
I was good at remembering other stuff.

[Lauren] Guys, I'm not an actress.

Nah, nah, nah, nah.
You're playing in my face right now.

You're confronted,
and you just burst out in tears?

Hmm, wait a minute. Something ain't right.

And especially if I think
Se Young is the millionaire.

-[Jaimi] You can't do that.
-No, it's just, yo, I promise you…

It's coming across
as being super manipulative, right?

And it distracts
away from what the goal is.

[Cara] Yeah, it could.

[Phil] Can we agree
that it might be that as well?

-[Se Young] Yes.
-It could.

-[Jaimi] That's a fair assessment.
-[Phil] That's it.

So… y'all be well, man.

[suspenseful music playing]

[sniffles, sighs]

I'm really annoyed
that I can't stop crying.

What he said wasn't even that bad,

and I'm really scared that it will
make people feel suspicious of me.

Sorry for crying.

-That's okay.
-No. I didn't want to cry.

[Lydia] I know this was a bit dramatic,
but I think we need to focus on the clue.

Yeah. I don't want it to be manipulative.

[dramatic whoosh]

I'm relieved that this is derailing
the conversation about this clue.

I just want this day to be over,

and I wanna wake up tomorrow knowing

that I don't have the million dollars.

You're right. So smash hit could be music.

It's not music. It's not music.

["Paralyzed by Fear"
by Susie Wilkins playing]

[Chris] Coming into tonight's elimination,

I'm using deductive reasoning like I have
from the second that I came into the house

and that leaves one person.

♪ There's nowhere to hide… ♪

Lauren is my top suspect
for the millionaire right now.

♪ There's nowhere to hide… ♪

[Lauren] This feels horrible,

but in order to survive
this one last round of elimination,

I know I have to vote for Se Young

because nobody else has enough suspicion

unless there's something else going on
that I'm unaware of.

♪ Paralysed by fear ♪

♪ You know the end is near… ♪

[Se Young] It would suck
to point the finger at Lauren,

but if someone sends an accusation my way,

I will do what I have to
to stay in the game.

Anyone that is not me
is a good thing. [chuckles]

[Kyle] I don't know what the clue means,
but I'm leaning towards Phil right now.

At lunch, like, why did he react so much?

Is he the millionaire, as, like, he's been
putting up a front this whole time

and it's finally cracking?

I'm confident that
the millionaire is Se Young,

so I need to point out her inconsistencies
and hopefully take the heat off of me.

[Sydnee] Everybody's playing
this nice, nice, nice,

but playing nice all the time
is not gonna cut it.

At the end of the day, we are individuals
here for one million dollars.

We're not a team.

This dinner is gonna be extra spicy.

♪ Paralyzed by fear ♪

♪ Paralyzed by fear ♪

[Peter] Welcome to dinner.

It's the last chance to pinpoint
who you think is the millionaire,

and, right or wrong, somebody
at the end of this dinner is going home.

Chef has prepared
a delicious meal for all of us,

but while we eat,
you all must have a discussion.

[Kyle] I'll break the ice.

[dramatic music playing]

I'm looking at you, Phil.

Dude, lunch was
kind of out of character for you.

You got wiled up, man.

That was odd for you, you know,

'cause you're always
super calm, collected for the most part.

Yeah, I sit and observe. I sit and watch

until it gets to the point
where I can't bite my tongue anymore.

It was just zero to 100 quick.

[Phil] But for me,
just logically speaking,

that response from Se Young,

from that question
of how is your memory good

for all of these things
that are much more complex,

and we're talking about just
where were you seated for breakfast.

It really frustrated me

because I wanted to be able to respond
to you in a very logical way,

but once I started crying,

I started being so frustrated at myself
for crying, and that made it worse.

But that doesn't mean
you're not the millionaire.

[Corey] We're talking about facts here.

She can name every single animal on here.

She knew all of our names
in the first 30 seconds.

-Because she was focused on that.
-[Corey] Correct.

[Lydia] She was not focused on
where she was sitting.

How do you not know where you sat?

And since we're here, look,
I'm just gonna put the cards on the table.

So this is my theory.

In the trophy room,
if you're the millionaire,

get people that's already in there
to put themselves in the box.

-Nobody said their own name.
-[Phil] No, no.

Naming each other. An agenda of getting
people to name other people in that room.

And as many people that you can get in,

that's how many extra votes you get.

And so it's you,
it's Corey, and it's Lauren.

So that's three. That's three votes.

And it was Se Young's idea of, like--

Here's the thing. Me saying, "Let's put
in the names of the people we trust,"

you guys clearly think
that it's a sound strategy

because all of our discussions afterwards
have been based on that strategy.

[voice breaking] So it feels like
I'm being punished

for coming up with something good
for finding the millionaire,

and then you're telling me that
that makes me look like the millionaire.

Take a deep breath.

[sighs sharply] The only reason
it's really upsetting for me

is 'cause I'm the only one
that knows I'm not the millionaire.

So I'm assuming
you think it's me. Is that…

I actually think it's Lauren.

-Wow.
-[Se Young] I'm so sorry.

[Se Young sobbing]

[Se Young sniffling, clicks tongue]

She doesn't ever propose
theories or strategies.

And that's good
because it makes you not look like

a "player," "manipulator."

-Yeah, I'm not.
-[Se Young] Whatever. Right?

Yeah. She is social.
She is friendly with everyone.

She's able to go from group discussion
to group discussion with ease.

-And she's moved around a lot more.
-[Cara] Yeah.

I think back at breakfast,

and all I could think about is,
like, Lauren left my side.

She was just going to listen to
another conversation.

[sinister music playing]

Everyone does things that
they don't even realize could be a clue.

It's just so hard.

Um, I came into this dinner
prepared to vote for Lauren.

Wow.

-[Peter] You got the information today.
-Yep.

-What did you do with the information?
-I repeated it to the group word-for-word.

So what do you think that meant?
"It was a smash hit."

[Chris chuckles] That's a great question.

I don't think that it proved
much to the group.

We're still trying to piece it together.

[Jaimi] Um, actually, at breakfast,
there might have been…

[chuckles] …maybe like a blurting out of,
like, a song lyric.

There was a one-line blurt.

I don't remember who it came from.

It's just coming up in my spirit.

[Lydia] I know what you're talking about,
and I can't place who it was

or what the phrase was.

-[Jaimi] Just a one line, or something…
-It was… Yeah.

"Food's almost ready,
food's almost ready."

-[Lydia] Mm-hmm.
-"Don't Stop Believin'" it's almost ready.

[chuckling]

I feel like, at one point,
it was maybe a one-liner.

It just… And that's it. I…

[Peter] Okay.

[Sam sighs]

My gut is telling me that Lauren…

I'm so taken aback. Like…

[chuckling] Yeah.
Wel… Welcome to the club, Lauren.

[Lauren] I'm thinking it's Se Young.

That is based off of odd behavior

and what I'm hearing now.

Okay. Well, everybody, it is time to vote.

-[bell ringing]
-[suspenseful music playing]

Vote for who you suspect
is the millionaire.

And right or wrong, the person
with the most votes will be sent home.

[Lauren] I hate this dinner.

I'm looking at somebody that
I do consider a friend right in the eyes

and having to convince
myself and other people

that voting for her makes sense.

I'm feeling the pressure
of this thing shifting.

I might not make it
through this elimination.

[dramatic sting]

[Se Young] Phil's point
about triple votes,

like, that is very sound
observation and logic.

I can't even refute it other than

uh, like, "That wasn't it
because I'm not the millionaire."

So I'm just gonna hope
that people see it's Lauren.

Merci beaucoup.

It's time to reveal
who you think is the millionaire.

[exhales sharply]

[suspenseful music playing]

[dramatic sting]

You have chosen Se Young
as the millionaire.

[gasps]

[melancholic music playing]

[Peter] Se Young,
we know you're going home,

but the burning question is,
are you the millionaire?

Has to be.

[dramatic sting]

You got to be kidding me.

[clicks tongue, exhales]

[Peter] Se Young, I do apologize,

but your time here at The Stag
has come to an end.

[somber music playing]

[sniffling] At least I get to go home
and watch Bridgerton

because I've been
really wanting to watch it.

[all chuckle]

-I'll miss you guys.
-[Lauren] Oh.

Have fun. You'll catch whoever it is
next round. I believe in you guys.

-[Jaimi] Bye, Se Young.
-[Kyle] We'll miss you.

Dang.

I thought that was clear as day.

[Se Young] It's so painful
for me to actually say the words,

"I'm going home today."

Throwing out so many
theories and strategies,

of course that was gonna
make me look suspicious.

But I am not suspicious. I am just weird.

And emotional. [chuckles]

I feel so sad.

Being the millionaire was
literally eating me from the inside out.

And so I am relieved
I survived this elimination,

and I feel like I'm breathing again.

You're all not very good at this game.

You've chosen the millionaire incorrectly,

which means the million dollars
is still theirs.

Correct?

-Correct.
-[Lauren] Correct.

-Incorrect.
-[dramatic music playing]

-[Phil] What?
-Huh?

Earlier, the millionaire completed
their secret agenda

to win a very special reward.

The millionaire was concerned
that you all might be onto them.

They chose…

to let the million dollars
be randomly reassigned

-to one of your boxes…
-[Jaimi] Didn't I say that?

-[Chris] You're kidding.
-…tomorrow morning.

This is unbelievable.

[Peter] They will not be able
to receive it again this time,

but they are making a bet
that they will get the money back

later in the game.

-[Lauren] Wow.
-Oh.

We have a new millionaire in our midst
as of tomorrow morning.

Don't put it in my box.

Good night and good luck.

The agent of chaos.
[chuckling] There he goes.

[dramatic music playing]

[Jaimi] Oh wow. How delightful.

[Sydnee] Dessert shaped as a pear.

[Cara] Mmm.

This game has made me question myself
and everything and everybody

and I'm looking around,
and I'm about to start playing this act

all over again of pretending
I don't have information.

I hate lying,
and I don't think I can do it anymore.

If I keep the lies going at this point,

that'll break me.

[Cara] Well, what a night. [chuckles]

-[Phil] Yeah.
-[Lydia] Yeah.

There's a really good liar around here.

[Lydia] Mm-hmm.

Um…

[suspenseful music playing]

I can't…

I can't play the game
like I've had to play the game anymore.

[music intensifies]

Um…

[music crescendos, ends]
