The Traitors Season 2: Who Was Banished and Murdered, and Who Won?

The latest season of Peacock's castle-based competition show is here, and we're dying (pun intended) to know which reality stars are still in the running to win the cash

Warning: This post contains spoilers from season 2 of Peacock's The Traitors.

What happens when you round up a bunch of reality TV stars in a Scottish castle, add Alan Cumming in as the host and have them all compete for up to $250,000? Spoiler: They're not there to make friends. But add in a murder-mystery twist and things really get cutthroat.

The second season of the Peacock competition show, which premiered on Jan. 12, features 20 memorable TV personalities working together (or against each other) to win the cash prize. But among them are three designated Traitors who work behind the scenes to try to get everyone but themselves eliminated. Viewers know who the traitors are, but the Faithful (non-Traitors) do not. If one Traitor can make it to the end of the show, they win all the money; if all the traitors are eliminated, the Faithful split the cash.

Each week, one person is banished (chosen by the group to leave the competition under suspicion of being a Traitor) and one person is "murdered" (chosen in secret by the Traitors). The trailer promised "chaos" and "diabolical twists" that will play out each Friday when the show drops new episodes on Peacock.

Read on to see where things stand so far...
