ONE contestant on The Traitors threw himself under the bus after making a massive slip-up.
On last night’s show, the mission involved players in cages, who could only be saved from potential murder by the other players finding and stacking animal skulls.
Sam wasn’t picked and was automatically became shortlisted for murder.
While the other three players also left vulnerable after coming bottom in the task was Maz, Reece and Traitor Stephen.
Maz was ultimately murdered, with Reece the final player to get saved, therefore witnessing it all.
Reece, who was safe in the game, seemingly threw himself under the bus by saying to the group at breakfast that he didn’t believe Maz was a Traitor.
He said this because it was just between him and Maz in the bottom.
But the group asked how he knew that because Maz could have come back and murdered Reece.
The group were convinced that Reece was a Traitor, and took aim at him later in the roundtable session.
But before the roundtable session and subsequent banishment, fans took to social media to slam the contestants for taking aim at Reece.
One person penned: “Does Matthew understand the rules of the game? Of course Reece knew Maz was a Faithful, otherwise he wouldn’t have been eliminated by The Traitors…”
Another added: “Matthew deciding that reece is a traitor because reece deducted that maz was a faithful bc he got murdered even tho that’s how the game works and has always worked since its inception.”
A third person penned: “What was that random guy even saying to Reece? If Maz was a traitor then he would be sat at the breakfast table wouldn’t he.”
While a fourth said: “Is he stupid? ofc reece would know maz is a faithful cause he was the last one left??”
At the end of the episode, there was a roundtable session which resulted in a banishment.
The group were unable to unanimously decide who to vote out, which resulted in a tie.
At the end of the session, it was down to Reece and Amanda before she was banished.
Then, at the very end of the episode, the Traitors went head to head as a feud exploded.
Secret Traitor Fiona went up against Traitor Rachel when she declared she was a Traitor following a row they had over Amanda’s banishment.
