The Traitors is an intensely competitive show, where contestants will go to great lengths to move closer to winning the cash prize.
Those in the role of Traitors are no different; they sometimes betray their fellow contestants to safeguard their own interests.

Can the Traitors Out Each Other?
The Traitors are required to take an oath with the host upon joining the show.
In this oath, they vow to "murder" every night and keep the identities of their fellow Traitors confidential.
However, they can accuse other Traitors as long as they do not disclose their own identity as a Traitor when presenting their suspicions.
This allows one Traitor to potentially catalyze another Traitor's downfall if they can convince the roundtable of their guilt.
This tactic was evident in season two, when the eventual winner contributed to eliminating a fellow Traitor to appear as the ultimate Faithful.
We might be witnessing the beginning of this strategy in last night’s episode, in which Fiona confronted Rachel privately, suspecting that Rachel was lying about her awareness of Amanda being a senior detective.
The evening descended into chaos when Fiona publicly expressed her suspicions about her fellow Traitor.
She stated: “I believe Rachel is a Traitor and I believe Amanda did not confide in Rachel.”
It is important to note that a Traitor cannot disclose the identities of the remaining Traitors once they are eliminated.
