I left the warmth of Los Angeles to attend the Savannah College of Art and Design‘s annual SCAD TVfest, where EW has been moderating panels and chatting with TV’s biggest stars all week. It’s busy, but I still found time to watch yesterday’s Traitors to see how the aftermath of the banquet all played out! —Patrick Gomez, Editor-in-Chief
