Major Twists and Game-Changing Spoilers from Season 3
Season 3 was packed with new elements and shocking twists designed to keep both the Faithfuls and the viewers off balance. From the very first episode, the game was turned on its head, ensuring that past strategies would not guarantee success.
Immediate Elimination Shock
The season began with a jaw-dropping surprise: an immediate elimination before the contestants even reached the Round Table. This early exit set a tense tone, reminding the cast that no one was safe, and the game had started long before the selection of the Traitors.
The "Murder in Plain Sight" Conclave
A major format change occurred at the end of Episode 4, replacing the traditional Traitor's Conclave with a shocking "Murder in Plain Sight" twist. Instead of meeting in secret, the Traitors were forced to write three names on a piece of paper and place them in a box. This twist created a public spectacle of fear and suspicion, as the Faithfuls knew a murder was imminent but had no idea who was responsible or who the targets were. This change successfully amplified the paranoia within the castle.
The Introduction of the Seer Power
Another significant twist involved the introduction of the "Seer" power, which was won by Traitor Britney Haynes in the finale. The Seer power allowed the holder to learn the identity of one other player. However, because Britney was a Traitor, she already knew the identities of the remaining players (all Faithfuls), rendering the power useless for its intended purpose of identifying a Traitor. This ironic twist was a final, dramatic moment of game mechanics falling flat for the Traitors.
The Traitors US Season 3 Ending: Winners and Final Prize Money
The finale of The Traitors US Season 3 was one for the history books, concluding with the largest group of winners in the franchise's history. The final moments were filled with high-stakes decisions at the Fire of Truth, where the remaining players had to choose whether to banish one last person or end the game.
The Four Faithful Winners
In a surprising and unprecedented ending, four Faithfuls successfully made it to the end and collectively voted to conclude the game in the first round of the final ceremony. This meant that the final Traitors—including the strategic Danielle Reyes—were not banished, but the game ended before they could claim the prize.
The four Faithful winners who split the prize money were:
- Dolores Catania (The Real Housewives of New Jersey)
- Dylan Efron (Travel Host/Producer)
- Gabby Windey (The Bachelorette)
- Ivar Mountbatten (British Royal)
Together, this group of four Faithfuls shared the final prize pot, which amounted to a massive $204,300. Their decision to trust each other and end the game early, despite the presence of a known Traitor, secured their victory and the entire cash prize.
Notable Banished and Surviving Traitors
While the Faithfuls ultimately won, the Traitors played a strong game. Early on, original Traitor Rob Mariano was banished in a shock move. In the final moments, Danielle Reyes, a key Traitor, survived until the very end, but the Faithful's decision to end the game prevented her from winning the money.
The third season of The Traitors US cemented its reputation as a must-watch reality competition, delivering on its promise of high drama, shocking twists, and incredible strategic gameplay. The success of the Faithfuls in Season 3 proves that even against the most manipulative Traitors, collective trust and a little bit of luck can lead to the ultimate victory.
