Article Summary

Welcome back to our preview/viewing guide for the fourth season of Peacock's Emmy Award-winning competition reality series The Traitors. Hosted by award-winning actor Alan Cumming at an ancient castle nestled deep in the Scottish Highlands, the global phenomenon kicked off last week with a trio of episodes that did not disappoint. By the time the credits rolled, Faithfuls Ian Terry and Rob Cesternino were "murdered," while Faithful Porsha Williams and Donna Kelce were "banished" (with Kelce revealed to be the Secret Traitor). But based on how things left off with the remaining contestants, the twist and turns are only just beginning.

With the next two rounds set to hit the streaming service at 6 pm PT/9 pm ET, here's a look at what you need to know about S04E04: "Cut the Head off the Snake" and S04E05: "If You're Gonna Come for Me, I'll Finish You" (with things getting "fiery" in a whole lot of ways). In addition, we have a look at the latest episode of the reality competition series' podcast, and we check in with Cumming to see what he's had to share this past week about what's to come.

What's "The Traitors" All About? Peacock's The Traitors is a nail-biting psychological adventure in which treachery and deceit are the name of the game. Here's how it goes down:

  • The entertainment industry's most competitive reality stars and famous faces take part in the ultimate murder mystery game, as contestants work together on a series of exhilarating missions to build a prize fund worth up to $250,000.
  • Hidden amongst the Faithful are the Traitors, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithful and claim the prize for themselves.
  • Under the cover of darkness, the Traitors murder the Faithful one by one in a treacherous spree, while the Faithful try to uncover the Traitors and banish them from the game.
  • If the Faithful contestants banish all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund, but if a Traitor (or Traitors) makes it to the end, they will steal all the money.

Who Can We Expect During "The Traitors" Season 4? Hosted by the impossibly stylish and devastatingly witty Cumming, the contestants for the fourth season include:

  • Candiace Dillard Bassett (The Real Housewives of Potomac)

The Traitors Season 4 Episode 4: "Cut the Head off the Snake" – A fiery mission results in several players up for murder; one player has some damning evidence, while another reveals their suspicions to the wrong person; there's a big swing at the round table and the Traitors feel the weight of their decisions.

The Traitors Season 4 Episode 5: "If You're Gonna Come for Me, I'll Finish You" – The day's mission offers the chance to stop a murder, but only if the Faithful stick together; after an explosive roundtable, one Traitor is under heat from an influential player.
