Parvati Shallow Agrees Dylan Efron 'Is the Peter' Weber of “Traitors” Season 3 but 'Less on His High Horse' (Exclusive)

With his keen eye for spotting Traitors and his confidence in going after them at the roundtable, The Traitors’ Dylan Efron has emerged as season 3’s Peter Weber.

Survivor’s Parvati Shallow — who competed on season 2 of the Peacock competition show alongside Weber, 33 — agrees with the comparison.

“Dylan is the Peter of the season, and he is less on his high horse,” Shallow, 42, tells PEOPLE. “Dylan seems more able to sit back and allow the bigger names to go at it and bide his time for the right moment to strike. It seems like he really gets it as far as, ‘Okay, we need numbers in order to banish a big presence or to take a big swing.’ Peter didn't really get that.”

Efron, 32, pioneered going after Traitor Bob the Drag Queen, and once Traitor Boston Rob Mariano decided to banish one of his own, they successful ousted the RuPaul’s Drag Race star, 38, earlier in the season. “I think Dylan has taken a note from Peter's book and then evolved it into just a little more advanced game play,” Shallow says.

In the latest episode of Traitors, Efron strayed from the group by voting for former Bachelorette Gabby Windey while everyone else had their eyes on Nikki Bella as a Traitor. Windey, 34, ended up receiving the majority of the vote and got banished in the same episode that the Traitors murdered Real Housewives of Potomac star Robyn Dixon. That leaves Dolores Catania as the last Housewife standing.

“She is someone to watch,” Shallow says of Catania, 54. “She has a little thing going with Dylan, and I like those two together. I feel like they can be very smart players.”

Shallow, whose memoir Nice Girls Don't Win comes out in July, also sees Traitor Carolyn Wiger as a player “up at the top.”

“She's being overlooked,” the Deal or No Deal Island contestant says. “I think she's used to it, which is so sad. But also I think in a game like Traitors, being overlooked is helpful, especially if you're a Traitor because she could make it all the way to the end and then win the whole thing.”

At the end of the Jan. 23 episode, Wiger, 38, caught wind from Efron that her fellow Traitor Danielle Reyes planned to come after her.

“I thought it was ridiculous,” Wiger tells PEOPLE. “I thought, we may not be getting along in the turret, but I thought we were together. I was really loyal to her. That was the person I was working with. Come on, girl!”

Reyes’s decision came out of self-preservation after Mariano's controversial move, as she hoped to eliminate Wiger and replace her with a new Traitor.

“He did the best that he could,” Wiger says of Mariano, 49. “I look at it like do I think it was early? Yeah, it was, but at the same time it's like that's Boston Rob. Boston Rob historically is like, ‘You come for me, I go for you.’ Boston Rob was trying to keep the Traitors together.”
