The Traitors: New Blood Eliminates Three More Players in Dramatic Two-Episode Twist

Another week has brought three more departures from The Traitors: New Blood.

Following the murders and banishments of Kim Daily and Madeline Kostopulos in the first two episodes, NBC’s Traitors spinoff opened Episode 3 with the show’s latest recruitment hanging in the balance. This season’s Traitors, Joe Vanella and Tomica Adams, had ordered Xavier Scruggs and Katie Fites to find death warrants in a bid to enter the game’s secretive inner circle—but Episode 2 ended before viewers learned whether either player had succeeded.

Host Alan Cumming explained that any player who failed to secure a warrant would be eliminated. If both Xavier and Katie completed the challenge by taking a warrant from a public location in full view, Joe and Tomica would have to choose which contestant to recruit. So, who completed the mission, who became the next murder victim and which other players were banished? With two new episodes now available, here is the full rundown.

Read on for a complete breakdown of the players eliminated by murder and banishment in the latest installments of The Traitors: New Blood.

Who Was Murdered In The Traitors: New Blood Episode 3?

Xavier Scruggs was the first casualty of The Traitors: New Blood Episode 3. After the previous episode ended with Xavier and Katie summoned to meet Joe and Tomica, both contestants arrived with a death warrant. Because they had each completed the task, the Traitors were forced to decide whom to bring into their alliance—and whom to eliminate. They selected Katie, believing she would attract less suspicion, and ordered Xavier’s murder.

Episode 3 ended before the Roundtable concluded, carrying viewers straight into the banishment that opened Episode 4.

The Faithfuls and Traitors ultimately voted out Arisa Thomas, a Los Angeles dog groomer. Suspicion had fallen on her after she took part in a “shady” handholding ritual with Victor Vollbrechthausen several days earlier.

Logan Smith became the next murder victim at the beginning of Episode 4 after naming Katie during the Roundtable, based on information he had received from Xavier. The decision may prove risky for Katie, since her name is now prominent heading into the vote expected to begin Episode 5 next week. The question is whether she can deflect suspicion—or whether the Faithfuls will finally identify and remove a Traitor.
