Fans Reaction to Paul’s Traitor
The latest episode saw the initial target of the Traitors getting disclosed as 67-year-old Aubrey. Paul drew a parallel between the murder and savouring dark chocolate before cackling menacingly. However, fans are raising a red flag and urging him to be careful. They fear that Paul may give the game away, leading him to be revealed as a Traitor.
One wrote, “How can they not think Paul is not a traitor? It is so obvious. #thetraitors. Another chimed in that they’re shocked no one noticed Paul’s shady move of ‘doing the right thing.’ In that, Paul confessed to having the shield. Furthermore, they argued that if he hadn’t confessed, Paul’s group would have gained immunity, which is rubbish for the traitors. The third expressed that Paul is being way too obvious. They said he should wear a neon sign around his neck saying, ‘I am a Traitor.’ They sarcastically concluded, “If he makes it to the final few, I will be amazed.”
It’s lovely to see the actors supporting each other. What do you think of Paul’s performance in The Traitors? Tell us in the comments.
