Yahoo Lifestyle The Faithfuls Banished Their First Traitor Tonight on 'The Traitors'
After a strong inaugural season in 2023, The Traitors really became THE must-watch TV sensation of 2024, not only becoming one of Peacock's most successful shows but also nabbing multiple Emmys. Now Alan Cumming has invited 23 new reality TV legends to his Scottish castle for midnight murders, devastating banishments and the chance to take home $250,000.
Last week, Peacock released the first three episodes of the season with the fourth hitting the streamer tonight (episodes will be released one at a time every Thursday from here on), and A LOT has already happened. Last week we said goodbye to Dorinda Medley, Wells Adams, Chanel Ayan and Tony Vlachos, but that didn't stop the Traitors from murdering another Faithful at the top of Episode 4. Then in the mission, over half of the remaining cast earned Shields and one throwaway comment led to the downfall of the seasons first Traitor via banishment at the Round Table.

Here's a recap of everything that happend on Episode 4 of The Traitors Season 3:
Who was murdered on The Traitors Season 3 Episode 4?
Jeremy Collins
Boston Rob Mariano has only been a Traitor for two episodes, and he's already managed to send two Survivor alumni back to the States. If I was Carolyn Wiger, I'd be watching my back. At the end of Episode 3, the Traitors were tasked with shortlisting three players for murder after the Round Table within earshot of the other players. In a covert meeting in secret room, they opted to put Collins, Nikki Garcia and Ciara Miller in the coffins out front of the castle.
Once the other Faithfuls had cleared out, Danielle Reyes pushed to put the nail in the coffin of Collins because he suspected her of being a Traitor. And thus, a second Survivor was clipped.

Who was banished on The Traitors Season 3 Episode 4?
Bob the Drag Queen
At the end of the mission in Episode 4, Bob the Drag Queen, who truly just cannot shut up, reminded the cast that it was likely one of the three late additions, Boston Rob, Derrick Levasseur or Wes Bergmann were a Traitor. Boston Rob did not take kindly to that and began using Dylan Efron to rally votes against his fellow Traitor. At the Round Table, Bob the Drag Queen tried to save himself by insulting Zac Efron's acting and taking a nine-word oath on God, but ultimately he was banished by an overwhelming majority.
The vote count:
Bob the Drag Queen (11) — Dolores, Danielle, Chrishell, Britney, Ciara, Dylan, Carolyn, Sam, Ivar, Boston Rob, Bob Harper
Ciara (4) — Gabby, Derrick, Robyn, Nikki
Nikki (2) — Tom, Wes
Boston Rob (1) — Bob the Drag Queen
Who won Shields during Episode 4?
Season 3 of The Traitors is doling out Shields left, right and center, which has made for plenty of squabbling and a lot fewer options for the Traitors to murder each week. In a strategic endurance challenge in Episode 4, 10 players received Shields, leaving only eight vulnerable at the beginning of Episode 5. Here's the breakdown:
Players with Shields (safe from murder in Episode 5):
Bob the Drag Queen (eliminated)
Boston Rob Mariano (Traitor)
Danielle Reyes (Traitor)
Bob Harper
Britney Haynes
Chrishell Stause
Dolores Catania
Dylan Efron
Tom Sandoval
Wes Bergmann
Players without Shields (eligible for murder in Episode 5):
Carolyn Wiger (Traitor, secretly safe)
Ciara Miller
Derrick Levasseur
Gabby Windey
Lord Ivar Mountbatten
Nikki Garcia
Robyn Dixon
Sam Asghari
Since Nikki and Ciara are already under suspicion and Boston Rob will likely push to save Derrick to keep all three late entries in the game, we'll most likely see one of Gabby, Ivar, Robyn or Sam heading home at the beginning of Episode 5.
Which players remain in The Traitors Season 3?
With six players eliminated, there remain 17 contestants in the hunt for the $250,000, with three as Traitors and 14 as Faithfuls. The remaining players are:
Sam Asghari (Faithful)
Wes Bergmann (Faithful)
Dolores Catania (Faithful)
Robyn Dixon (Faithful)
Dylan Efron (Faithful)
Nikki Garcia (Faithful)
Bob Harper (Faithful)
