The Traitors: New Blood Season 1 Episode 8 recap. Last week's round table cliffhanger is resolved: who gets the power of the pardon, and will they use it?
BachelorClues and PaceCase break down one of the best episodes of the season. First, the power of the pardon: what the show told the players, what it didn't, and why the hosts think you should always use it. Then the traitors meet in the turret, Abby L is murdered, and the castle can't stop arguing about Fruit Gate. At the round table, Christy debuts the menopause defense, a move PaceCase calls one of the moments of the season, before a vote that changes the game. Plus MVP picks from both hosts, Face Plays of the Game, a mystery beaver for Creature of the Week, Alan Cumming's Highland feast, predictions for the next traitor recruit, and another attempt to get into Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.
