02x05 - A Silent Assassin

[bunniefuu]

[serene music playing]

[dice clacking]

[Peter] Guests,

you failed to find the millionaire.

[voice breaking] No.

[Peter] Their reward,
the double-barrel k*ll shot,

has been unlocked.

[dramatic sting]

[epic music playing]

[Kat] The votes are nullified.

And the millionaire
completed their agenda,

which means they get two k*ll shots.

That could land on me.

I warned you that the millionaire's power
would grow as time went on.

The millionaire alone has chosen
the innocent guests who go home tonight.

[Nick] My k*ll shots
were a super hard decision.

Melissa's a strong player,
and she's aggressive.

And then Kasey, I think
she's kind of a… a threat to my game.

But, like, would that be obvious?

Or if I, like, did somebody close,
like Hunter or… or Kevin,

it would seem random and not tied to me.

But, if we're thinking long haul,

it might not be the smartest for my game.

I really hope I made the right choice.

[Peter] The first k*ll shot used
by the millionaire is…

[epic music continues]

[music ends]

…the rhino.

[somber music playing]

Okay.

[Peter] Kasey.

[Daisy shuddering]

[Kasey] Damn.

I'm… I'm a little shocked.

[somber music continues]

The second k*ll shot used
by the millionaire…

[suspenseful music playing]

…the bear.

[music fades]

Melissa.

[somber music playing]

Who is it?

I have no idea.

[Nick exhales sharply]

[music ends]

-Melissa, what are you thinking?
-[Daisy] God.

[Daisy weeping]

That I've had a great time.

[sentimental music playing]

Everything I told y'all was true.
Nothing was a lie.

And I get to go home
with my head held high.

[Peter] Melissa, Kasey,
please check out of The Stag.

[Daisy] Love you guys.

-Bye, y'all.
-[Daisy] I love you.

-[Hunter] Bye, guys.
-[Kaleb] Bye.

[Kasey] I'm so surprised.

You never know with this game,

but I'd like to think that
I was the target because I'm a threat.

[Nick] It was hard to send
Kasey and Melissa home.

But Melissa,
she played the game aggressively

and would've been adamant
about getting the millionaire out.

Kasey called me out at dinner,

so it's too much of a risk
keeping her around.

It's not easy and I feel bad,
but it's kind of eat or be eaten.

[music ends]

[Peter] Guests,
our millionaire is still here,

their power growing by the hour.

[somber music playing]

And this is what happens
when you don't catch them.

You just saw two innocent guests
check out of The Stag.

And you will be next
if you don't catch that millionaire.

Good night.

[dramatic sting]

[bugs chirring]

[somber music continues]

[music ends]

I'm just gonna say it. Um… [smacks lips]

I mean, we obviously…
we didn't catch the millionaire.

I think the best thing to do
is just figure out

who did catch the majority of the votes.

Then we know that
one person can be crossed off the list.

Yep, I agree.

[Hunter] So I'll be the first
to say who I voted for.

Kat, I voted for you.

[Daisy] Kat, I voted for you. I'm sorry.
I love you. Who else voted for her?

-I did.
-[Nick] So most people?

Yes, I voted for you, Kat.

I did not vote for her.
I did put your name down.

[Daisy] I mean, you clearly had
the most votes, and it was not you

because you got null and void.

So that should
make you feel good right now.

-It doesn't make me feel good at all. I'm…
-So I get it, and it blows.

But I'm just saying, like,
you're out of the suspect pool now.

Okay.

[suspicious music playing]

[Daisy] The majority of us voted for Kat.

We did not get the millionaire right.

That's why our votes
get thrown in the trash.

And the millionaire's double-barrel
k*ll shot went into play.

Boom, boom, dead.

I'm devastated.

I don't think the people that were sent
home by k*ll shots tonight tie to anyone.

[Hunter] I thought there was a chance
Melissa would go home tonight

just because she was so on the game.

[Hunter] Kasey was out of the--

-That was a blind side.
-Yep. Out of left field.

That was so random.

[Kat] I'm not ready to speak up
because I have no idea who I can trust.

But I definitely think
Nick is the millionaire.

He was absolutely fishing
for somebody to throw under the bus.

And the only thing he could come up with
was that I was high-fiving people.

I do remember high-fiving Kat
like ten times.

I don't know if the agenda was completed,
but that's what I thought of.

[Kat] Also, it's really suspicious
that Kasey got the k*ll shot.

It was her that said Nick's name
at the elimination dinner.

[dramatic sting]

I'm keeping my eye on Nick.

[Hunter] Well, it's narrowed down
to the slimmest list we've ever had.

This is stressful.

It's all people I like.

[melancholy music playing]

[Hunter] In the last Trophy Room,

the clue referred to three movies
that were released in 1999,

the year that the millionaire was born.

[Melissa] Who's '99?

-Us four.
-[Melissa] Oh my God!

That clue just cooked us.

[tense music playing]

[Hunter] And now
that Kat's been ruled out,

that throws Kevin, Umeko,

and my boy Nick under the bus.

Hello, millionaire.
Congrats to whoever you are.

[Daisy] Fricking A.

Let's show up tomorrow and make sure
we send the millionaire home.

[Hunter] I definitely need
to figure out who this millionaire is.

Nick, please don't let it be you.

[theme music playing]

[clinking]

[serene music playing]

[birds chirping]

[Kevin] The millionaire is either
between Nick or Umeko.

But I am still a suspect, and that sucks.

I have to clear my name because if not,
it could be me going home.

[Umeko] I'm in a really dangerous spot.

People think that
I might be the millionaire.

I need to figure out a way
to have some kind of control

because it's not me.

[Nick] I'm pretty sure that
people suspect I'm the millionaire.

I'm stressed about the clue.

Being one of three suspects,
it's just going to give me away.

We're going to have to see
how the… how the cookie crumbles here.

[harp glissando plays on intercom]

[intercom chimes]

[Peter] Guests, good morning.

[dramatic music playing]

Will the millionaire please join me
in my private study?

Everyone else be ready

because the game
is about to heat up even more.

[dramatic music continues]

[Nick] I think the only way I kind of have
a shot is to get in the Trophy Room,

and then we'd make
a powerful enough alliance.

So I need to make sure that
Hunter and Umeko stay on my side.

[music ends]

[birds chirping]

[door clinks]

Welcome back to my inner sanctum.

How are you feeling after last night?

Doing all right. [sighs]

Definitely feel like
I'm still in high water.

People in the house aren't happy
about two innocent people going home,

so they're pretty adamant,
try to find the millionaire.

[Peter] Well,
there are only eight of you left,

which means everyone is going to want
the money in their box now.

It's yours to lose.

Yeah.

It's time for your next secret agenda.

Let's do it.

The other guests are all trying
to clip your wings.

It's time for you to clip them.

[dramatic sting]

Oh, dear. [exhales heavily]

[Peter] You must clip
these three clothespins

to three different people.

[Nick snickering]

That is hilarious, dude.

Don't call me dude.

[snickering]

[suspenseful music playing]

You must complete this agenda
before the activity begins.

Yes, sir.

Now, having survived last night's vote,
your power as the millionaire has grown.

If you complete your next secret agenda,

you will receive two rewards
instead of one.

For your first reward,
I will cancel the Trophy Room,

meaning no clue about you
will be revealed.

[dramatic sting]

[Nick] Canceling out
the Trophy Room is massive.

This could potentially save my life.

A lot's at stake here.

[Peter] In addition, up to two votes
that are cast against you will be canceled

at the elimination dinner.

Wow.

However, if you fail
or don't attempt it at all,

your punishment will be twofold.

You will have four votes against you
at the elimination dinner.

And not only will there be a Trophy Room,

but the clue revealed will be
much more obvious than usual,

meaning you will almost certainly
be going home.

There is a million dollars riding
on these three clothespins.

[somber music playing]

It's do or die here.

[Nick] It's going to be tough
to pull this off.

Everybody's adamant to find

who the hell
this millionaire is right now,

but the punishments are no joke,
so I have to get the agenda done.

I think you've got
some work to do, millionaire.

-Yes, sir.
-Goodbye.

All right. Thanks, Peter.

[Nick] If I don't, I'm cooked.

[sighing] God.

[knocking]

[music ends]

[Umeko] Oh.

[inquisitive music playing]

Hmm.

[laughing]

[reading] "Congratulations, guest."

"You have been randomly selected
to receive a secret agenda of your own."

"At the beach today, you must hit
three different guests in the head

with a beach ball."

"If you succeed,
you will steal the million dollars

and become the new millionaire,

as long as you survive the vote."

[chuckling]

Oh my gosh. [laughing]

This is like… the moment.

I feel like… Oh, I'm so lucky.

I've been praying that
something like this would happen.

[reading] "But there's a twist."

"The current millionaire must also survive
the elimination dinner."

"It will be your job to make sure neither
you nor the millionaire gets eliminated."

"If you fail or don't attempt it at all,

you will have four votes against you
at the elimination dinner." [chuckling]

My agenda said that I have to not only
hit three people with the beach ball,

I also need to keep the millionaire here.

It's either Kevin or it's either Nick.

I need to figure out who it is.

[harp glissando plays on intercom]

[intercom chimes]

[Peter] Hello, guests.

The millionaire has just received
their agenda.

Be on the lookout for odd behavior
because if you don't…

Well, you saw what the millionaire did
with the last reward.

[Kaleb] Our suspects are Umeko,
Kevin, and Jersey Nick.

But me and Umeko have been number one
for a long time.

I've trusted her on numerous occasions.

Regardless of what I feel,

I've got to keep my eyes
on the suspect list

and just do the work.

[Peter] We have a day of sun and fun
planned for you all.

First, some time at our private beach,
and then a lively Casino Night

where the chips will fall where they may.

Until then, happy hunting.

[suspicious music playing]

[Nick] Oh!

[Hunter chuckling]

[Nick] Oh yeah.

[Hunter] That's awesome, dude.
This is sick.

[Kat] Hey, boys.

-[Kevin] Howdy.
-[Kaleb] Hello.

[Hunter] What's up?

[Nick] This is a hard agenda.

I need to pull it off
without anybody seeing me do it.

-Can I talk to you two?
-[Daisy] I'm so hot.

-[Nick] Yes.
-[Kevin] Yeah.

[Nick] I think the best target
that I have is Hunter.

There's no way Hunter thinks
I have the money.

So if he catches me,

hopefully he thinks
I'm just messing around.

So, I think I just kind of wanted
to talk to you guys.

[Kevin] Yeah.

It's probably between one
of you two right now, so--

For me, which is totally fine.

Like, I'm not here to tell you
to take me off the list.

You have no way of knowing.
I'm the one that knows.

Yeah. Are you guys in your head?

Just, like… Is this, like,
the Spider-Man meme for you two?

-Where you're both just like… [laughs]
-I don't know what is going on, bro.

We're talking about important things.
Hunter's telling us it's one of us.

That's bad.

And that clue just put
us all on the chopping block.

Yeah. And that's… it's…

And I'm also staring at
his freaking shoelaces the whole time.

[chuckling] But I can't get it done.
I got Kevin there.

It's too risky.

-[Hunter] Sorry to pull you away…
-[Nick] No. I appreciate you.

[music ends]

I feel so weird today.

Last night, I was so upset because
I was like, "Oh, y'all showed your a*s."

[Kat] But, like, I will say,
I want Nick gone.

No, I think Nick's more loyal than Hunter.

No, I'm so serious.

Can I just grab some of these?

I think we have different orders.

-[Nick] Thank you.
-No worries.

-What's up? Do you hate me, Kat?
-[Kat] Hey.

[Kat] No.

[Nick] Dude, I'm sorry, though. I don't…

I don't know who I thought it was,
but I figured I was getting k*ll-shotted

if I didn't get who it was.

[Kat] It's okay. Like, I'm not…
I'm not a grudge-holder.

I don't feel like I need to go on a Nick
revenge tour because you said my name.

[Umeko] Those are the beach ba*ls?

[suspicious music playing]

Why are they so freaking big?

This agenda could be harder
than I thought.

I do think because everyone trusts me
in some kind of weird way,

I could blend in without looking,
like, too suspicious.

And if I fail,
there's four votes against me.

So I don't want that.
I'm gonna be hitting everybody.

-[Kevin] Wanna play some volleyball?
-Get away from me.

[Kevin] Yeah.

-Want to play volleyball in the water?
-[Umeko grunts]

-[Nick groans]
-[Umeko giggles]

[Nick] Ow.

[indistinct chatter]

-Boop! [chuckles]
-[bell dings]

[chuckles]

[Umeko] Step one is complete.

But now step two.

I have to make sure
that the millionaire stays.

[music ends]

[Lauren G.] I'm very confused
by Nick and his hat.

-[Hunter] It's cool.
-[Kaleb] I like it. It's hot.

[Hunter] You can rock it.
I don't think I can rock it.

It's pretty random, but…

[Hunter] What's up, boss?

It's a little soon.
I haven't hired you yet.

You shouldn't. [chuckles]

It depends on who
the other candidates are, I guess.

Um, if anyone else applies, take them.

[Hunter and Lauren G. laughing]

-[Hunter] Yeah.
-You can work my job from your house.

-[Nick] Wanna go check that jetty out?
-[Kaleb] Yeah.

-That's awesome.
-All my guys are in different states.

-[Hunter] That's awesome.
-Yeah.

-[Hunter] Just Zoom meetings?
-Yeah.

-[Hunter] Damn.
-You work in sweatpants.

You just got to be dressed
from the waist up like a newscaster.

Oh, that's awesome.

That's so awesome.

Yeah. And you can go take your dog out
when you get a dog with Nick.

Oh, yeah, when we're
raising a dog together?

-[Lauren G.] Where did everybody go?
-[Hunter] We lost them.

-I wanna go talk to some of them.
-[Kevin] I'm gonna check them out.

[Lauren G.] I heard a rumor about you.

-[Nick] Me?
-[Lauren G.] With Umeko.

We've been sneaking out.

-Kidding.
-I knew it.

-[Kaleb] Sup.
-Your babies would be beautiful.

[Lauren G.] Like, unnaturally beautiful.

Well, get it done. Take care of business.

-[Kaleb] Yep.
-[Lauren G.] Don't bark at her.

I will, definitely.

[Lauren G.] There's a wonderful romance
brewing, and it is beautiful.

Let them have the most beautiful babies
on this planet.

I'm fine with that.
But two suspects forming a relationship.

That sounds dangerous.

Moving forward,
I'm keeping my eye on them.

[music ends]

[Nick] Want to go over and see what's up?

-[Kaleb] I don't care.
-[Lauren G.] Yeah, yeah.

[Lauren G.] Oh God, are you
gonna make me jump down there?

Me, Lauren, and Kaleb,
we're the only three not on the jetty.

I'm trying to see how, in this
conversation, I can put it on Kaleb.

[Lauren G.] Two, three years ago,
I have two little steps in my house,

and I fell down and broke my ankle.
Two steps.

[Kaleb] Did you do that?
There's a paper clip on my sleeve.

[Nick chuckling]

Did you do that?

[Nick] I don't know.

[Nick] Kaleb totally catches me.

It all just happened fast,
and I barely even, like, give an answer.

This is not how I wanted it to go at all.

Where did… Was this on you?

-[Kaleb] Yeah.
-I just felt it on me.

[Nick] Let me see that.

[Nick] Then Lauren finds hers,
like, two seconds later.

[chuckling] Like, I'm screwed.

-[Lauren G.] God, I love you.
-[Nick chuckles]

[Lauren G.] Why would you put
a clothespin on somebody? I don't get it.

Let's be real. That kid's real cool.
He doesn't do a lot of awkward stuff.

You know, he wears a lot of jewelry.

I'm realizing very quickly,

that's an agenda item,
and the millionaire,

it's handsome Nick.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Umeko] Are you gonna jump in?

-[Kat] What is that?
-I'm gonna chill with you.

[Kaleb] I know who it is.

[Daisy] Who?

[Kaleb whispers] Nick.

Me and Lauren just got clothesline clips
stuck to our shirts

and caught him doing it.

[dramatic sting]

[suspenseful music continues]

I freakin' knew it. [sighs]

[Kaleb] Yeah, we got to vote Nick.

We got four votes sitting right here.
We just need one more.

[Kat] Kevin will vote for him
because he's on the chopping block.

-You know one we don't have. Hunter.
-[Kaleb] I know.

[Kat] And Umeko.

[Kaleb] I know. Because her and Nick
kind of have a thing.

-[Kat] I think that too.
-Do you think she would flip on him?

[Kat] I hope so.

Jersey Nick, you just got busted.

[Kaleb] We don't know if Nick has
any extra special powers,

and if we can shut that down early
and get the majority vote,

we can ensure our safety.

So, we need to tell Umeko
and Hunter about Nick.

[Kat] Are you gonna tell people
about the clothespins?

[Kaleb] Damn right.

[all cheering] Yes!

[Nick] Everybody's kind of
buzzing around, like, forming groups

and whispering a little bit.

I think they were talking about me.

A lot's at stake here.

I know that time is running out.

I'm basically going home
if I can't do the agenda.

It's a lot.

-[Kat] Oh my God!
-[women screaming]

Tens across the board.

[indistinct chatter]

[suspenseful music playing]

[Nick] I found this over there.

I was sitting next to Umeko.

-[clip clicks]
-I put the clip on her finger.

-[Umeko] You're weird.
-[both chuckle]

She has it on for like three seconds,

-takes it off, puts it on my finger.
-[clip clicks]

[bell dings]

[checkbox chimes]

[dramatic music playing]

[Umeko] That clothespin thing?

I wonder if that's an agenda. Mm.

But also, he's been flirting a lot.
I don't know what's going on with that.

[Hunter] Let's go!

[Nick] I know
Kaleb and Lauren are on to me.

I'm pretty much screwed.

[Kat] Yes!

[Nick] At least I got the agenda done,
so there's no clue coming out.

But if I want to stay alive,

I'm gonna have to direct
some attention towards Kevin.

This sucks.

I like Kevin.

But me and Umeko are
running to the end together.

[Kat] Oh, what a beautiful lake.

[music ends]

[wind howling]

[swing music playing]

[harp glissando plays on intercom]

[intercom chimes]

[Peter] Hello, guests.
Time to up the ante.

Please join me
for our Casino Night activity.

[swing music continues]

[Kevin] Oh, let's go, dude.

-We're going to gamble.
-[gasps] Oh my God!

[excited chatter, laughter]

I am so good at roulette.

-Oh my God. Alcohol and gambling.
-[Nick] No way!

-[Lauren G.] I've got my numbers.
-[Kevin laughing]

[Hunter] Hell yeah.

Guests…

-Oh!
-Oh! [laughs]

-[guests exclaiming]
-Yeah!

Welcome to Casino Night!

-Yeah!
-[music ends]

[Peter] Now, before we begin,
I must inform you that

the millionaire completed their agenda,

and because of that, there will be no clue
about them shared this time.

Oh.

[tense music playing]

[Kevin] This is insane.

There's no clue, and that sucks.

My neck is on the line
because I am a suspect.

This is dangerous for my game.

[Peter] But the reward for winning
the activity is still worth fighting for.

There will be a single winner tonight,

and that person will be immune
from elimination at tomorrow's dinner.

What? Damn.

[dramatic music playing]

Oh my God. I am ecstatic.

I want that immunity.
I want that immunity so bad.

That immunity is worth its weight in gold.

[Nick] This is absolutely nuts.

I would feel so good right now
if I had immunity

because I know people are talking
about the clipping

as a potential agenda.

If I lose this activity,
I'm going home, in my mind.

We will play three casino games
with a Stag spin.

The first game will be played
in two teams.

When you chose your drinks,
you chose your team.

Does your dirty martini have an olive?

[Daisy] Yeah.

[Peter] You're Team Dirty.

A martini with a twist?

-Twist.
-Twist.

[Peter] You're Team Twisty.

All right, players, head over
to your roulette tables so we can begin.

Team Dirty on my right.

Team Twisty on my left.

Welcome to the first game, Stag Roulette.

[music ends]

-Each team will start with $10,000.
-[cash register chimes]

The team with the most chips left
at the end of three rounds wins

and moves on to the next devilish game.

This is my jam.

[Peter] Let's play.

First, you will place your bet,
starting at $500.

You each have your own roulette wheel.

The wheels are numbered from 0 to 36.
You will each spin a number.

[upbeat ambient music playing]

Wherever the ball lands,
that's your team's number.

Keep it secret.

The question is, is your number higher
than your opponent's?

And if not, can you bluff them
into thinking it is?

Because to win the round,
you must either have the highest number

or make your opponent fold.

[music ends]

Each team will now bet poker style.

[Hunter] I'm very excited to play

because I have not been honest
about who I am.

I've told every single person here

that I am a server
at a barbecue restaurant.

And, in fact, I play poker for a living.

[devious music playing]

I gamble for thousands of dollars
on a daily basis.

I read people every day.
I am really good at it.

Team Dirty, you can place your bet first.

All right, let's deliberate.

[Lauren G.] I don't think it makes sense
to go out with a check.

It's a risk.

[Kevin] Go $500.

-Okay, we'll see what they do.
-[Kevin] All right.

We're going to bet $500.

[cash register chimes]

Team Twisty.

That little rinky-dink $500 bet

doesn't make me very confident
in y'all, to be honest.

Then match it.

[Hunter] I think
the other team is bluffing.

We have a 28.

Although you can't be certain with that,

you can be fairly confident
that you're ahead.

[tense music playing]

[Hunter] Let's raise to $2,500.

-[Kaleb] Okay.
-[Nick] All right.

We're going to raise you.
We're going to throw $2,500 in.

-[cash register chimes]
-[Peter] $2,500.

So that's another $2,000 to you.

-We're going to call.
-[Peter] Call.

So we have $6,000 on the line.
$3,000 apiece.

All bets are done.
I will now reveal the numbers.

[music ends]

Team Twisty, 28.

-After round one…
-Woo-hoo-hoo!

…Team Twisty has $13,000 in chips.

Team Dirty has $7,000.

[suspicious music playing]

[Hunter] Unfortunately for the other team,
they made a pretty massive mistake.

They put a third of their chips in play

with their mediocre roll.

[Peter] Round two.

-Place your antes, $500.
-[cash register chimes]

[suspenseful music playing]

Team Twisty, you will bet first.

No bet. We check.

Even though we'd take a massive lead,

I want to play it safe,
not do anything too risky

because I got to make sure
we have the most chips at the end.

[Kevin] All right, let's chat real quick.

Kat. Um…

We get a one.

We got a one. [scoffs]

[Kevin] If we do
another $500, they'll fold.

-We'll at least make $500.
-[Kat] We have one.

[Kevin] Yeah, okay. All right.

[Peter] Team Dirty, your turn.

-[Kevin] Just check back.
-Oh. Check back.

[Peter] I will reveal the numbers now.

One.

And Team Twisty, 11.

[Nick and Hunter chuckle]

[Peter] Team Twisty wins $500.

At the end of round two,
Team Twisty has a total of $13,500.

Team Dirty has $6,500.

This is the third and final round.

Whichever team is the chip leader
after this wins.

[tense music playing]

Team Dirty, you will bet first.

We're going to raise by $1,500.

[cash register chimes]

[Peter] Team Twisty, action on you.

We're going to fold.

[Peter] Okay.

Twenty-one.

Team Twisty, 16.

-Team Twisty wins Stag Roulette.
-[Hunter clapping]

[Hunter] Woo-hoo-hoo.

[guests clapping]

[Hunter] You have to be disciplined
and mentally sharp and make sure

that you are constantly thinking
at a level that's ahead of your opponents.

I break down what they're thinking,
and then I learn how to exploit them.

I'm going to use the skills that come with
playing poker to catch the millionaire.

Team Dirty, unfortunately,
you are eliminated.

Hunter, Umeko, Kaleb, and Nick,
you will continue to the next round.

Follow me.

[tense music continues]

[Nick] Thank God for Hunter.

We caught the dub, so we're moving on.

And I'm one step closer to immunity.

We got two more games.
I'm ready to get it done.

[music ends]

[bugs chirring]

[Lauren G.] Sorry, guys.

[Kat] It's okay.

I just wanted to play really bad,
and I bombed it.

-Don't look at me that way, Kev.
-No, you're fine. I love you, okay?

I'm stressed
because my neck's on the line.

There are enough of us that know about

-that agenda today with the clothespin.
-Yes. Yep.

Apparently Nick was putting clothespins
on people at the beach.

That could be odd behavior,
and I'm hoping that kind of snowballs

and that he does not get immunity

because obviously I know
I'm not the millionaire.

I need people to think that that's him,
so then eyes are not on me.

-It's Nick.
-It has to be.

-[Kevin] Okay.
-[Lauren G.] Okay, but listen.

Hunter and Umeko,
they don't know at this point.

-[Daisy] Wait, she doesn't know?
-Not yet.

Wait, what? Why?

I don't think he got past you at the dock.

-[Lauren G.] Yeah.
-Or Hunter.

[Kat] Well, obviously, we'll tell her.

[Peter] Guests, it's time to double down
in our second game.

Stag 21.

Now you must split into two teams
to compete against each other.

I will pick medallions
to assign your new teams.

The snake, Hunter.

And

the gazelle, Umeko.

So it's Umeko and Hunter
versus Kaleb and Nick.

Here's how it works.

It's a head-to-head game of 21.

Each team will start
with the same amount of chips.

You'll make your ante.

Then I will deal you two cards,
one down and one up.

Once the cards are dealt,
you will decide to either hit or stand.

Once both teams stand,

you'll flip the cards
and see what you've got.

The team closest to 21
without going over wins.

The game continues
until one team is out of chips.

The winning team will then move on
to the final casino game

and one step closer to immunity.

Teams, place your ante.

[Hunter] Okay, before we get started,

clearly we have
two millionaire suspects among us,

and we don't want, as a group,
either of those people to win this.

So I think this is an opportunity
to get someone that we trust immunity

by throwing the game…

[dramatic sting]

…um, and I'm happy if it's Kaleb.

Umeko and Nick are suspects
because they were born in 1999.

I don't think that
they should be trying here,

and if they do play
as hard as they possibly can,

I think it's pretty telling.

[dramatic sting]

Do you not like that, or…?

Uh, I mean, I don't want to look suspect
to you or to whoever.

[suspicious music playing]

[Peter] Okay, well, let's get
our first round of Stag 21 started.

I'll deal your cards.

Closest to 21 without going over wins.

[tense music playing]

It's really hard for me to agree
with Hunter right now.

People are already suspicious of me,
so I need that immunity,

but also it's just not
what I was raised to do.

You're here playing for a million dollars.

I'm not just gonna let
somebody else fold my cards.

I don't care what Hunter says.

Hunter and Umeko, you'll go first.

Okay. We're gonna hit until we bust.

I don't know what's going on with this
whole throwing the game or whatever.

[Hunter] Nick had some resistance.

It kind of was a little bit suspicious.
I'm gonna move forward

because it's a little snare set up
to catch the millionaire.

He knows that the walls are closing in.

We're going to hit until we bust,
so just keep hitting. Okay?

-Umeko, would you like to hit?
-Yeah.

Go ahead and hit. Yeah.

Okay, hit.

[Umeko] Hunter is very loud and clear
that he doesn't think

that me or Nick should win.

[dramatic music playing]

We would like to hit.

[Peter] That's a bust.

I can't fight against it now
because then it makes me look guilty.

-[Peter] That's $500 for Nick and Kaleb.
-[cash register chimes]

-Next round.
-[cash register chimes]

[tense music playing]

Nick, you're first to act.

Stand.

-We'll hit.
-[Peter] Hit? Okay.

-Five.
-We'll hit.

Oh!

[Peter] Hunter and Umeko,
you're down to your last $500.

This would have been mad fun.

[Hunter] I know. Sorry to ruin the game,

but I mean, I don't…
I care more about that milli.

Yeah, I mean, I don't want to look sus,

but, like, why… why
would I not try to win this?

I think it looks extremely suspicious
to fight super hard

when you are on a list of suspects.

[dramatic music playing]

Playing Stag 21, like…

I think Stag 21's a very fun game
for fake chips.

Uh, we're playing for
a real million dollars outside of here.

Exactly.

[Hunter] Nick's acting weird.
He's acting really weird.

[Peter] Kaleb and Nick, hit or stand?

Stay.

The fact that there is any fight back
from him is extremely telling to me.

-[Peter] Hit again?
-[Umeko whispers] Turn it over.

Hunter and Umeko, you have been
eliminated from Casino Night.

Kaleb and Nick,
you will be headed into the final duel.

Good luck, you guys.

Later.

[dramatic music continues]

[Hunter] Nick's unraveling, and it sucks.

I think he's the millionaire.

[music ends]

[Hunter] Okay, so we threw the game.

So we got in there, and I, um… I asked,

"Nick, there's no reason
you should do anything

but throw the game in the next room,

or else you look
extremely… extremely suspicious."

[whispering] You were with
a different group on the dock.

We saw Nick do his agenda.

What was it?

He stuck clothespins on Lauren and Kaleb.

[Hunter] I just was very vocal about it.

[Umeko] Oh my gosh,
the millionaire is Nick.

Yeah.

We've got our millionaire.
That's pretty obvious stuff.

[tense music playing]

[Umeko] Hopefully, Nick will get immunity

because then my job
to keep the millionaire in is done.

But if he doesn't,

I need to figure out a plan really fast.

[music fades]

Nick, Kaleb, welcome to the final game.

You will play head-to-head
in a no-limit bluffing game.

[dramatic music playing]

Here's how it works.

First, each of you will place your ante.

Then you will both receive one card,
and the highest card wins the pot.

However, your card will be placed
where only your opponent can see it.

You must read your opponent's face
and decide if your card is the higher.

You will play until there is one winner
with all the chips.

[Kaleb] I don't need the immunity
because I am not a suspect.

But Nick very well may be the millionaire.

I definitely can't let him
get this immunity at all costs.

What's up, Kaleb?

What did you think
of what Hunter was saying?

Um, I understand what he's saying.

At the same time, my competitive spirit
didn't care for it a lot.

What would you rather me do?

That's not up to me.

Yeah.

We can let the cards decide.

-[Nick] Yeah. Uh, yeah. Let's see.
-All right.

[Peter] Let's play.
Please place your antes. 500.

[tense music playing]

I appreciate Hunter looking out
for the good of the group,

but it's like we kind of got
carried away moving as one unit.

At the end of the day, I'm playing for me.

There's only one person going home
with a million dollars.

All right. Shall we start the first round?

Yeah.

Let's play some cards, baby.

[music ends]

The action starts with Nick.

[suspenseful music playing]

A thousand.

Fold.

Let's see the cards.

-[cash register chimes]
-500 to Nick.

Next round.

Place your cards.

Action on Kaleb.

Check.

[Nick] Five.

-Fold.
-[Peter] 500 to Nick.

[Nick] I realize
it's gonna be hard at the start

because Kaleb's just playing very tight.

[suspenseful music continues]

[Nick] Five.

[Kaleb] Fold.

[cash register chimes]

[Nick] If your card's higher
than like eight,

Kaleb's probably just gonna check fold.

It's impossible to do anything

because he's just playing
so conservative and tight.

A thousand.

-I fold.
-[Peter] Kaleb folds.

[cash register chimes]

[music ends]

[Kaleb] It is important
for me to win this final game.

[dramatic music playing]

I'm playing a very conservative game,

and it allows me to give Nick
a little bit of a panic.

I don't know how to get money out of you.

Next round. Ante up, please.

I'm just gonna wait until I am confident
that I got the highest number.

[Peter] Place your cards.

[tense music playing]

Action on Kaleb.

A thousand.

[Nick] Two thousand we'll raise.

[poker chips clacking]

Call.

Okay. Show down your cards.

[Nick groans]

[Peter] Kaleb wins.

Next round.

This is great.
Lady Luck is shining down on me.

I'm just going to keep playing
a conservative game.

[tense music continues]

[Kaleb] Do $500.

[sighs] Fold.

[dramatic sting]

[cash register chimes]

Next round.

Check for Nick.

Five hundred.

I fold.

[Peter] Five hundred to Kaleb.

[Kaleb] I'm feeling great.

I'm watching Nick's pile of chips
disappear before my very eyes,

and I'm here for it.

[tense music continues]

-Raise five hundred?
-Yeah.

[Kaleb] Call.

[Peter] Fifteen hundred to Kaleb.

[Nick sighs]

Place your cards.

You're all in, Nick?

Yes, sir. [exhales]

[Peter] Action's on Kaleb.

[suspenseful music building]

-I'm gonna fold.
-[chuckles] Dude, come on.

[cash register chimes]

Give me a shot, bro.

[Nick] The way Kaleb's playing,
I'm kind of screwed.

He's got all the chips.

I'm trying to just be like, dude, play me,
but he's playing it smart.

I really just have to get dealt good hands
multiple times in a row to crawl back.

[Peter] Action on Nick.

He goes all in.

Call.

Kaleb wins this hand. He wins the game.

All right, let's see 'em.

-[Nick sighs]
-[cash register chimes]

[Peter] Okay. Congratulations
to our winner, Kaleb.

Because of your hard work,
you have won immunity

and will be safe from elimination.

[Kaleb] I am so excited.
Nick didn't get immunity.

I've had the money, somehow I survived,

but now I've got to get it back.

I'm coming for Nick.

-Good night to both of you.
-[Nick] Good night.

[Kaleb] Night.

[Nick] So I lose.

I really wanted to earn immunity.

It's gonna be tough to crawl back,

but I'm just gonna
keep denying until I die.

Sup?

[Daisy] Okay. How was the game?

-[Kevin] Who took the dub?
-[Nick] Uh, Kaleb won that one.

-[Kevin] Kaleb.
-[Daisy] Congrats.

-[Hunter] Our man.
-[Nick] Yes, sir.

[Daisy] Oh my gosh. At this point,

we… we are confident
that Nick is the millionaire.

If he would have gotten immunity,

then we're all screwed.
So, thank you, Kaleb.

-Sorry I pressed so hard in the 21.
-[Nick] Nah. You're good.

I just… And I'll be open that

we both kind of thought
it was best to… to play. And, I mean…

Can I ask how that's best?

I just don't understand how that's best.

Yeah, I mean, it's… it's
kind of an every man for himself.

[spluttering] I expected you
to wanna do the same thing.

Honestly, I was surprised
when you brought that up. But…

Uh, is it that surprising?

I mean… Because to me, like,
I feel like the obvious play is, like,

don't send someone who could
potentially be the millionaire.

We've been sending wrong people home
the last, like, four dinners.

[tense music playing]

[Daisy] Oh, okay.

-[Lauren G.] That's what the rules were.
-You were fighting so hard.

[Nick] I don't think I… I don't…

[Umeko] People be talking about you.

Because people are going to vote you out.

-[Nick] I'll do my best.
-[Umeko] Promise?

Yes. We're going nowhere.

-Promise?
-We're not going anywhere.

[Hunter] We're taking over.

[ominous music playing]

[bugs chirring]

[Umeko] I need to figure out
a way to keep Nick here.

But if I push too hard,
it's not going to look good.

However, there's something
nobody knows about me.

[music stops]

I actually was an intel analyst
for seven years in the Navy.

[epic music playing]

I joined the Navy at 18.

I did operational intelligence.
I did cyber intelligence.

I've had specialized training
in interrogation.

I've learned how to pick up
patterns and behaviors.

Those techniques and all the things
that I've learned over the years,

it's like, has set me up for this moment.

[music fades]

[laughing]

Hoo.

♪ I am a story you like to tell… ♪

[Umeko] People think
Nick is the millionaire.

Whether or not he does have
any kind of attraction to me,

it's important for Nick
and I to stick together.

♪ You played your part
And you played it well… ♪

I need him here in the game

because that's the only way
I'm gonna become the next millionaire.

[Nick] I just don't know why Hunter…

Like, who put Hunter in charge?

I mean, that actually pissed me off, dude.

I was like,
"Why would I not play this game?"

-That's a good way to get him out.
-Who do I talk to?

[Umeko] It's perfect.

I'm going to vote for Hunter.

He is a big voice in the house
and a little bit too pushy.

And I'm going to use that
to convince everyone Hunter needs to go.

♪ I don't care if you believe me ♪

♪ Knowing you never could rid me… ♪

[Nick] I'm grateful
Umeko's riding with me.

I love Hunter. He's my boy.

But I'm the frontrunner
for having the money right now.

Up to two votes for me get canceled,

but I don't think that would be enough
to keep me in the game.

It's tough to backdoor Hunter,

but I gotta do what I gotta do here.

♪ I can be your villain ♪

[music fades]

[birds chirping]

[harp glissando plays on intercom]

[intercom chimes]

Hello, guests. Good morning.

Congratulations to Kaleb,
who has won immunity.

As a reminder,
there will be no Trophy Room

or clue about the millionaire.

So use your remaining time wisely.

I will see you all
at the elimination dinner.

[tense music playing]

[Kat] Good morning!

[Daisy] Ooh, iced tea. Yay.

-[Lauren G.] I see guac.
-[Daisy] Guac me.

[Nick] Hell yeah.

I don't even know. Is that guac?

-Yes.
-[Lauren G.] It's guac?

-[Kaleb] It looks amazing.
-Yes.

-[Kat] I love guacamole.
-[Daisy] What does that mean?

-[Kaleb] That is very good.
-[Daisy laughs]

[Lauren G.] Do we tell him
about clothespin gate?

[Hunter] What?

[Lauren G.] Nick put
clothespins on both of us.

As a joke?
And where did he get clothespins from?

Because it's not a joke.

So we've been calling it clothespin gate.

[all chuckle]

[Hunter] It's a great day.

Nick is the millionaire
without a shred of doubt.

And he sold himself out
last night at the Casino Night.

And although he's my boy,
I'm not here to protect Nick tonight.

I'm here for myself.

This is gonna be the quickest and easiest
elimination dinner we've ever had.

[Hunter laughing]

-What's up, big cat?
-What's up?

-[Daisy] Oh, you look handsome.
-[Nick] Thank you.

[Daisy] Yeah, that's good.

-[Daisy] Try the guacamole.
-I don't want to…

-[Nick] Try the guac?
-Is it inside out?

Is it?

-[Daisy] No, that's the style.
-[Hunter] Okay.

[Nick] Is that fashion?
Is that fashion or am I an idiot?

[Umeko] Before elimination,

I need to figure out
a way to convince everybody

that we need to take out Hunter.

People in this house,

I know their strengths
and their weaknesses.

-I wanna talk. Can we go in the sun?
-[Daisy] Yeah. Yep.

[Umeko] Daisy is very loud and very pushy.

I actually want to try to see

if I can use her personality

to help me take out Hunter.

[tense music continues]

[dramatic sting]

What's going on?

A woman needs to win this.

-[Daisy] Yep.
-So.

But now, with that clothespin gate.

-It's… I mean, clearly it's Nick.
-Yeah.

The only thing is,
everybody is against Nick,

and I know that he would know that.

I wonder if we keep the millionaire in
now that we know who the millionaire is.

I don't know. I think we could use that.

He's too scared to do anything reckless.

And if he knows
that we're all on his side,

he's not… if he had a k*ll shot,
he's not using it on us. So…

I think we need to vote out Hunter.

[dramatic music playing]

Hunter is kind of showing who he is.

Like, he kind of really has his own back.

[Daisy] Mm-hmm.

[Umeko] Just the way he's, like,
turning on people like this, it scares me.

And the bromance between Nick and Hunter--

It needs to end.

[dramatic sting]

[Daisy] Yes, keep the millionaire.

This is so much smarter.

And after we vote out Hunter,

we take out Nick, the millionaire.

It's too good to pass up.

Yep, it's gonna break my heart,
but he needs to go.

-One of them needs to go.
-[Umeko] We're at the very end.

-[Daisy] Who are in on this?
-You, me, Nick.

We need to solidify this with everybody.

[Umeko] And I'll back you up.

[dramatic music continues]

[music fades]

Can I talk to you?

You wanna catch them up
and I'll talk to Kat?

-[Daisy] Yep, go.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Daisy and I need to plant the seed
that we're trying to keep Nick here.

[Daisy] Here's the plan.
This is what I got to talk to you about.

[Umeko] Daisy's going to target
Mama Lauren and Kaleb.

All the older people.

We're not gonna circle Nick.
We're gonna circle Hunter.

[Kat] Hi, Miss Girl.

[Umeko] Kat. Last elimination, I was
the only one that didn't vote for her,

so I solidified myself with that.

Kevin is very loyal,
but he's also very fearful.

He'll go whichever way he needs to
that he knows will keep him safe here.

What you thinking, homegirl?

[Umeko] Hunter needs to go.

He doesn't have any fear
to throw anyone under the bus.

[Kevin] Yeah, he's cutthroat.

[Umeko] Keeping Nick
in the game now is smarter

because we're not gonna be spending
so much time figuring out

who the millionaire is.

We're going to be spending time
getting people that we don't like out.

Can I depend on us to all vote for Hunter?

[tense music playing]

I think it's worth considering,
but I don't know.

Like, Nick, he threw me under
the bus and k*lled two people.

I cannot believe the house
is swaying towards this.

It's actually blowing my mind.

Hunter wasn't even on the suspect list.
Like, I think Nick is a way bigger threat.

[Umeko] The Hunter thing
is gonna be a thing.

[Kat] Mm.

[Daisy] Here's the deal.

We cannot vote out Nick tonight.
Hunter is a threat.

He is strong, bossy.

If we keep Nick and we vote out Hunter,

we now eliminate one person
and get the bromance broken up.

If we keep Nick,
this works to our advantage.

Ugh, the plan to target
sweet, beautiful, dummy Hunter

hurts my heart a little bit.

However, it would give us some safety.

At least for two more rounds.
And I'm great with that plan.

[Daisy] I mean, it wasn't my plan,
but I'm on board with it.

'Cause I feel like
he's playing all the sides.

-[Lauren G.] Yep.
-And he's real good at it.

I know. He's also loyal to everybody…

-[Daisy] No one and no one.
-…so he's loyal to nobody.

[Kaleb] I woke up
this morning and I thought,

we're taking out the millionaire, Nick.

And I find out
we're going to backdoor Hunter?

And it was my best friend Umeko
who came up with this idea.

Umeko, think with your head,

not you know.

I have got to figure out
the best path forward for me.

[Lauren G.] It's time to pick sides.

-[Hunter] Wanna chat?
-[Kaleb] Yeah.

[Hunter] Yeah.

Oh, it's… I mean, I think
it's way up here at this point.

-[Kat] I'm gonna come through.
-Did you guys have a similar talk?

Did… Did you guys
have a similar talk? Or…?

I… I just think

it's clear what's gonna happen tonight.

[whispering] You stuck your neck out
for everybody last night, man.

[smacks lips] I… I think
he fell right into a trap.

I mean, I'm happy to, like,
go to w*r with whoever. [chuckles]

Like… I think, even if he's my friend,
like, that was bad.

-It was bad.
-[Kat exhales sharply]

What's going on with you back there?
What are you huffing and puffing about?

[Kat chuckles]

I don't think I can circle Hunter's name
on my voting card tonight.

[sighs] I don't know.

Hunter is somebody that I would consider
an ally in this house right now,

and I don't want him to get blindsided
and go home.

What's happening?

People are voting for you.

-Really?
-[Kat] Mm-hmm.

It's not because people think
that you're the millionaire.

-They just think I'm a strong player?
-Probably.

Hey, what… What you said
is exactly what I feel, Kat.

But it seems like, at the moment,
we're outnumbered.

That's concerning.

[somber music playing]

♪ I won't break you ♪

♪ But you better watch your back… ♪

[Umeko] Tonight,
I'm going to vote for Hunter.

People in my alliance are voting Hunter.

Nick, I did a lot of work
for my baby daddy,

so he better make sure
that he covers his own self.

I just have to be cool, I have to be calm,
and I have to stay on course.

♪ I'll never let you in ♪

♪ I can see you… ♪

[Nick] I know Hunter's
probably going to fight.

That being said, nothing's been fake
between me and Hunter. That's my boy.

But if I've got to stab somebody
in the back for a million dollars

for me and my people back home,
that's what's gonna happen.

[Kaleb] Thankfully, I have immunity,
so I'm gonna speak up at this dinner

and tell everybody why
it is absolutely insane

to leave who we believe
the current millionaire is in power.

And as it turns out,
other people feel the same way that I do.

[Hunter] It's abundantly clear

that I have some heavy lifting
to do at this dinner,

but there is not a single person
in The Stag that is more prepared

for these kinds of situations.

I have several allies in this game,
and I'm going to go into tonight

and make sure that everybody knows
that they should not be sending me home.

[music fades]

[Peter] Welcome to the elimination dinner.

I look forward
to our stimulating discussion

about who you all think
the millionaire is.

[tense music playing]

Who wants to jump in
and begin the conversation?

[Hunter] I'd like to.

-Hunter.
-[Hunter] Yeah.

It's come to my attention that the, uh,

vote might not head in the direction

that I expected it to tonight.

I felt that there was
a relatively unanimous decision

about who the millionaire could be,

um, and although nobody
thinks that it could be me,

that I might still catch
some votes anyways.

[dramatic sting]

[tense music continues]

[Kat] I told him.

I know what it's like
to go into a dinner feeling blindsided,

and I don't think anybody deserves

what that felt like.

I didn't say any names.

I just said, "Hunter, I want you to know
people are considering voting for you."

[tense music continues]

[Daisy] I heard about the plan.

Not going to lie to you.
I knew about the plan.

I appreciate that a lot,
and I don't take it personally, but…

I think people have identified me
as a strong player in the game,

and I'm not going to argue that point.

There was a pretty large
and general group consensus

that Nick would be the millionaire.

After last night,

when he fought against throwing his game.

It's a hard game to throw to--

It's not that hard of a game to throw,
so don't make that…

Whatever, dude.
You're gonna send someone home while…

with a… with a smile on my face
for playing a game of cards.

-Me too, but I'm gonna defend my case.
-[Nick] That's fair enough.

I really did stick up for every person
at this table last night,

and you fought hard
for only you last night.

[dramatic sting]

[tense music continues]

[Lauren G. clears throat]

There's been a clothespinning.

I got clothespinned.

I may have been playing with clothespins
that were laying around.

-It's so clear you're the millionaire.
-I'm trying to win money for my family.

Just like everybody else here, okay?

[Hunter] I don't have any issue with that.
But I mean--

And I hate that it's you versus me. I do.

[Kaleb] May I say something?

Our job is not to throw somebody
under the bus that stood up for us

so that we could catch the millionaire.

I have tried my best to make decisions
that benefited the group

rather than just stabbing everybody
in the back when you had the opportunity.

[dramatic sting]

[Daisy] I mean, all this is crazy,

but also, there are still ways
to have people on your side

that can help you stay in the game.

I am a threat to every single person
in this room because I'm intelligent.

But so is everyone else here.

And I have done things…

-Eventually, you're not…
-…spoken through actions--

-Let me finish. Spoken--
-…gonna be able to do that.

Let me finish, please.
Spoken through my actions and not my words

and put the group above myself.

That type of loyalty is more important
going into the endgame

than somebody who's capable
of swaying the entire group's votes

in a specific direction that's dangerous.
That's a threat.

Whoever it was clearly has a lot of pull
with this group.

What do you think
they're gonna do next round?

[hesitates] Eventually,
it's not a group game.

[tense music continues]

[Umeko] I do think that loyalty

and alliances and all that is important.

If you tell me, like, you know,
"Umeko, I have your back,"

and then let's say I was the millionaire

and then everything was pointing to me.

I wouldn't say that you would do me dirty,
but it scares me to know that

you could possibly turn on me.

At no point have I ever turned
on you in this game.

[Umeko] No, but I don't--
That's the thing.

-And you've turned on me.
-Yeah. What?

-Oh!
-[Hunter] What's happening right now?

-But I thought y'all was cool. I--
-Same.

You're the millionaire.

[Nick scoffs]

And let's not forget.
If we don't send the millionaire home,

we don't know what power is hiding.

Who here at this table feels safe enough
to give somebody another double k*ll shot,

a triple k*ll shot,
immunity for another week?

Everything is possible
and on the table here

if you don't take out the millionaire
when you feel like you know who it is.

What if the millionaire stays
and his power does grow?

What if? Exactly.

Might be best to be on that squad.

[music ends]

[Peter] It is time to vote.

You will all vote for the person
you suspect is the millionaire.

Right or wrong, the person who receives
the most votes will go home tonight.

As a reminder,
Kaleb has immunity from the vote.

[dramatic sting]

[bell rings]

Garçon, the ballots.

[suspenseful music playing]

Oh, man. There's never
any guarantees in this game.

You can never be too confident.

But because I completed the agenda,
two votes against me get nullified.

I'm hoping that I'm gonna be able
to survive another day.

[Hunter] I'm completely blindsided.

I felt that I had several allies
in this game, but I'm very worried.

I feel like
I'm gonna get stabbed in the back.

[music fades]

Guests, the votes were tallied,
and a decision has been made.
