Traitors' Box Challenge: Soundproof Secret Revealed!
23 Feb
Summary
- Box challenge audio was blocked by carnival music.
- Editing made movement sound deceptively clear.
- Finale streams February 26th, 2026.

The Traitors' Season 4 featured a surprising box challenge where participants were isolated within soundproof boxes. Contrary to what the show's editing suggested, host Kristen Kish explained that loud carnival music inside each box made it impossible for contestants to hear each other's movements.
This revelation challenges the perception that Faithful players like Eric Nam and Rob Rausch were easily detectable. Producers apparently amplified the drama through editing, creating an illusion of audibility that did not reflect the reality of the challenge. Kish's exit interview shed light on this behind-the-scenes detail.
The audience's ability to deduce Traitors based on sounds from the boxes was therefore compromised. Viewers may feel deceived by the editing, especially if the outcome hinges on perceptions influenced by these manipulated audio cues.
The season finale of The Traitors is scheduled to stream on Peacock on Thursday, February 26th, 2026. Anticipation is high for the final reveals and the potential for a surprising winner, with some viewers hoping for a satisfying conclusion regardless of the finalists.
