After being told last week that Danielle has been clumsily shopping her name around in the hopes of being the last Traitor standing, Carolyn wastes no time in the turret confronting her.
But can this dysfunctional, homicidal family actually heal their wounds? With her whole plan up in smoke, Danielle naturally suggests starting fresh and promises to make things right.

Plus, Dylan, who Boston Rob knows, has one too. With their protection acquired, they turn their attention to collecting enough gunpowder to blow up the effigy. Nonetheless, victory!
