Johan Pehrson returns to The Traitors after being eliminated before the game began

In the third episode of the season, it is revealed that Pehrson is still at Häringe Castle - and has been there all along. He gets to meet the disguised traitors and ask them questions, but without seeing their faces.

Then Johan Pehrson gets to reunite with the other participants and tell them what he has learned.

“My tactic is to see the game with new eyes,” he says in the programme.

The reason he was eliminated the first time was that one of the other participants had to choose someone to leave the competition before the game had even started. Daniela Lecei then chose Pehrson, explaining that she “isn’t that fond of politicians.”
