00:00Welcome to Genius Game!
00:05Eleven exceptional players were invited to take part in Genius Game.
00:10I study economics and philosophy.
00:12A prime writer.
00:13I applied for Gay Love Island, so I don't know what the hell I'm doing.
00:16Each day, you will play in a main match and a death match.
00:20The main match is a group game.
00:22If you win it, you are safe, as you will receive a token of life.
00:26And you get to choose another player to save.
00:28But if you lose, you will be the death match candidate.
00:32And you get to choose another player to be your opponent.
00:35The loser of that game will be going home.
00:39Ultimately, only one of you will win.
00:44Last time...
00:45In our first main match, Scott masterminded his way through the game.
00:49The three of us use our tip-offs to tip off Paul.
00:52Paul? Paul?
00:53Choosing Paul as the fall guy, putting him behind bars...
00:57Oh, no!
01:00...and ensuring him as the death match candidate.
01:03Paul confidently chose Pasha, which proved to be a mistake.
01:07Three, six, eight, collect three points.
01:10When she won, and he became the first person to be eliminated.
01:13Sorry, Paul.
01:15With ten players left...
01:16Oh, my gosh.
01:17Who will be victorious today?
01:18First one's here.
01:19Back again.
01:20How do you feel?
01:21I'm nervous as hell.
01:22How do you feel?
01:23I'm good.
01:24You seem a bit less confident yesterday.
01:26Yeah.
01:27Let the games begin.
01:28I'm very ready to play the game today.
01:30The first main match has really caused me to be paranoid.
01:33That's fine.
01:34It's to be expected.
01:35But hopefully people are a bit more upfront about it, because I certainly plan to be.
01:38Hello.
01:40Hello.
01:44How do you feel?
01:45I'm nervous as hell. How do you feel?
01:47I'm good. You seem a bit less confident yesterday.
01:51Yeah. Ugh. Let the games begin.
01:54I'm very ready to play the game today.
01:55The first main match has really caused me to be paranoid.
01:59That's fine, it's to be expected,
02:01but hopefully people are a bit more upfront about it
02:02because I certainly plan to be.
02:06Hello!
02:08Oh, my gosh!
02:10Yeah. How are you feeling? Excited, yeah.
02:12Yeah.
02:13I think I'm well-suited as a competitor
02:17because I think logically I'm used to plotting.
02:20I'm quite pragmatic, a little bit cunning.
02:23Quite a few people say I come across as a bit dangerous
02:27because I'm always working out ways to kill people.
02:32Hello! Hi!
02:33The queen has arrived!
02:35Wait, me or him?
02:37I am 100% keen to stay out of the death match today
02:40and that's why I'm trying to formulate some really strong connections.
02:44I just want to make sure that I am on everyone's good books.
02:48Hi, guys!
02:49Hi!
02:49Hi!
02:50Hi!
02:50Hello!
02:51Hello!
02:51Hello!
02:52I just saw it!
02:53How are you guys doing?
02:55What do you think today's game might be?
02:58Last game. It was very Alliance-heavy,
03:00so I think this one might be a bit more strategic.
03:03Three Alliances.
03:03I think this one might be a bit more strategic.
03:05Academically, I've achieved quite a lot.
03:06I got into a private school on both academic and athletic scholarship,
03:10achieved 11A stars in my GCSEs,
03:13and graduated with a first in economics from the University of Manchester.
03:16A genius is someone who transcends expectations.
03:19My strategy for the game, play the rules and play the other players as well.
03:23Am I going to cause chaos?
03:24Yeah, 100%.
03:25I love the flower, by the way.
03:29Oh, thank you.
03:30I'm going to show you this is a new day completely,
03:33so let's start fresh, you know?
03:35Reset.
03:36Reset.
03:36I went on like a loose, like, canon sort of vibe yesterday.
03:41I came into this day thinking that I really needed to let people see me in a better light.
03:46So today I'm going to focus on other people to get to know their core abilities.
03:51Hi!
03:52Oh, hello!
03:52Hello!
03:53Here we are.
03:54Thank you!
03:54This is everybody now.
03:55How are you doing, man?
03:58Hi!
03:59How are you feeling?
04:01Sad not to see Paul here.
04:02Yeah.
04:03One man gone.
04:04So you were the mastermind, Scott.
04:06It was my plan.
04:06Well, we all contributed.
04:08Scott was the mastermind behind it.
04:10I went hard yesterday and quite big in my strategy,
04:14so I want to try and be a little more subtle today.
04:16I've formed quite good relationships with Bedalia, Ken and Charlotte,
04:20and they're all quite intimidating players.
04:22They're just exceptionally clever people.
04:24I teed him up.
04:25Pasha knocked him out of the park.
04:27Listen, that was all you.
04:28I think you were involved, Pasha.
04:30I don't even know what will happen.
04:31Yeah, I do.
04:32I think you can't be a genius unless you've had varied life experiences.
04:38I'm not your typical book smart.
04:41I'm people smart.
04:42I'm emotion smart.
04:44I'm the kind of smart that is willing to fail and start again.
04:49My strategy from the start of the game will be to work as a team as much as possible.
04:56I don't need to work something out myself if a friend of mine can do that.
05:01That's what I'm going to be doing.
05:02Oh?
05:04Okay.
05:06Hello and welcome back to Genius Game.
05:11Allow yourselves a huge sigh of relief that you weren't the first to go
05:14and now start panicking that you might be the second because that would also be pretty humiliating.
05:20Yeah.
05:20Now, before we start today's game, let's see how many garnets you've gained so far.
05:25You have 15 garnets between you, each worth £1,000.
05:29So it wouldn't take a genius to work out that there is 15,000 in the prize pot so far.
05:34Okay.
05:37Okay, it's time for your main match where you may become the undead.
05:41But a warning, make one grave mistake and this could become a real horror show.
05:47This is Zombie Game.
05:49Oh.
05:53In this game, there are zombies and humans.
05:56The zombie's objective is to turn all the humans into zombies whilst the humans try to avoid being turned.
06:03Players will secretly select a card to determine their roles.
06:06There will be two zombies and eight humans.
06:09The game will consist of three rounds where players must touch with at least one other player.
06:14If a human touches a zombie, the human turns into a zombie.
06:18If two humans touch, both players will gain one point.
06:22If two zombies touch, nothing happens.
06:25Players may not touch with anyone more than once during the game.
06:29At the end of each round, the number of zombies and humans will be revealed.
06:32However, points gained and players' roles will remain unknown.
06:37If at the end of the game, all players have been turned into zombies,
06:40the original zombies will win and choose a death match candidate.
06:44If there are humans remaining, the human with the most points is the winner
06:48and the human with the fewest points is the death match candidate.
06:52If all remaining humans have equal points, they will be joint winners and may pick any zombie
06:57to be the death match candidate.
06:59So it might be beneficial becoming a zombie?
07:01Yeah, because you can't become the death match candidate unless humans tie.
07:08Players, there is one other thing.
07:10All players will also receive one zombie antidote.
07:14This can be drunk if a player suspects that they have touched with a zombie and wishes to remain human.
07:19The antidote has no effect on the original zombies.
07:22An additional antidote may be purchased for one garnet.
07:27Your fate is quite literally in each other's hands, so choose who you touch carefully.
07:33As before, any questions during the game, please ask one of the dealers.
07:37They are also the ones who will have the antidotes.
07:41I love this game.
07:44Wow.
07:45Any strategies anyone wants to share?
07:47I have one, but I'm going to wait to see what I get.
07:55This game is interesting.
07:57It's going to really depend on whether I start as a zombie or human.
08:01If you're human, either I have to go for maximum points or become a zombie.
08:06The worst thing to do is to become a low scoring human.
08:11If you were a zombie, you would have a massive advantage if you could find the other zombie?
08:20Somehow?
08:21It would help.
08:22It would help.
08:22Players, please make your way to the dealer room to choose your identity.
08:27If I'm a zombie or a human, both strategies will probably involve touching as many people as possible.
08:32As a human, you want as many points. As a zombie, you want to infect as many people.
08:39Please take your antidote.
08:42I'm really nervous about this game because so much of it is going to be determined by what cards you just happen to get in the beginning.
08:49I want to be a human for sure.
08:51We've got to watch his face when he comes out.
08:53Yeah, that's what I was thinking. That's a massive one for me.
08:56I'm really nervous about this game.
09:08I'm really nervous about this game.
09:09I'm not sure how to approach this.
09:30I think you kind of want to have a zombie in your group, because if there's someone
09:35that you can trust, they can help you navigate who you should touch.
09:40How are you feeling, Benjamin?
09:41I'm extremely relieved about my card.
09:43I'm a human, and I want to find three other humans, only touch each other.
09:47Like, if I touch you the first round, then I touch Alison the second round, then I touch Bex.
09:52And the combination of the four of us are human, we will all win,
09:55and the best that the other four humans can do is copy our strategy.
09:58Benjamin's bubble idea is to form a tight-knit group of four players,
10:02all of which believe each other are human.
10:05They each touch one other member per round, potentially bringing them up to three points each
10:09at the end of the game, in the hope that this could secure them as the humans
10:13with the most points, and therefore the winners.
10:17All it takes then is one person to betray you to get the extra point,
10:20and then all of those humans are then at fault.
10:23It's time to play Zombie Game. Round one begins now.
10:32The key to this game is a human is tracking who's touching.
10:34Guys, quick, quick, quick, quick.
10:35Either of you actually is what he says. Say if you are.
10:37I'm not.
10:38I would tell you if I was. I'm not.
10:40You are.
10:41I think that Charlotte might be.
10:42I don't want you to work on chemistry.
10:46Like how I need to know that you worked out.
10:47Okay, I promise, I promise.
10:48Listen, listen, I won't, I promise I won't say anything to anyone.
10:52I won't say anything to anyone.
10:53But I actually think that we can win this in your ways
10:56where we get everyone to be zombies, and I pick the Deadmatch captain.
10:59I can promise you for certain, I'm not going to tell anyone that you're a zombie.
11:02I'm not going to tell any of you.
11:03But the strategy that's best for you leaves you out of the Deadmatch
11:05more likely than it leaves us out.
11:06Yeah, I agree.
11:07It's not that I don't trust Charlotte's plan.
11:08It's just a bad plan for me.
11:09It's a great plan for Charlotte.
11:10But Charlotte stole the crown twice in the last game,
11:11and got a bunch of garnets.
11:12So why am I going to help Charlotte again?
11:13Okay.
11:14Here's the issue.
11:15We need to be in the group of four that wins.
11:16The people in the bubble can only touch people in the bubble.
11:18Unless you...
11:19Not even if you use an antidote, because you might touch somebody who's a human
11:21to get an extra point.
11:22I don't know.
11:23I don't know.
11:24I don't know.
11:25I don't know.
11:26I don't know.
11:27I don't know.
11:28I don't know.
11:29I don't know.
11:30I don't know.
11:31I don't know.
11:32I don't know.
11:33Not even if you use an antidote because you might touch somebody who's a human
11:36to get an extra point, and then the other people in the bubble are death match candidates.
11:39I'm only willing to make this deal if the people in the bubble touch each other and no one else.
11:44Hey.
11:45We're trying to wa- We're trying to find a solid bubble that we can-
11:49Okay.
11:50Well I'd always say I'm open to bubble.
11:51Yeah.
11:52Yeah.
11:53The people I would want in my bubble of four is everyone but Bex.
11:56Do they know what I would-
11:57But it's because I haven't talked to you.
12:02Okay.
12:03zombie you'd be able to tell a mile off because i'd be walking around going what would you do what
12:07would you do ben's a hugely strong player and i would love to have a solid alliance with ben
12:12the problem is is i can see that ben not only just doesn't trust me as a person i'm not really
12:17sure he he trusts my skill set i think he wants to play with the clever people i think she's
12:24definitely human but then again do you know what i'm not saying anybody's not but i actually do
12:28trust we trust each other we've got that look we know we trust each other i'm very slightly
12:35suspicious of you allison thanks i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry only because it's slightly different
12:40energy to normal but i don't know
12:56i'm very slightly suspicious of you allison thanks i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry only because
13:03it's slightly different energy to normal but i don't know
13:13allison i want to work with you so bad but i just don't know i just don't know if i can trust you
13:17right now i respect allison enough and i think she's smart enough to be a zombie and lie about it
13:24and because of that respect i had for her i had to go with bex in the bubble over allison
13:29allison if you're a human i'm really sorry this this confirms our bubble then yeah the four people in
13:35the bubble are myself india pasha and bex i have put my trust in the people who i think are humans and
13:43i'm hoping that i'm right do you want to touch now okay we're touching
13:50i trust you you can trust me
13:51i'm trusting you this would be epic if you were a zombie after all this i'll congratulate you if you are
14:03thanks thanks very much yeah i caught something in your expression right and
14:16i thought it was that you got the opposite of what you wanted to get but i don't know
14:21what you want i wanted to get a zombie did you yeah so you got a human did you get zombie by any
14:26chance no i got a human you got human yeah but they thought i got zombie well they couldn't trust
14:30me so they kicked me out why do you think they couldn't trust you i'm not very expressive and i
14:35just think that they couldn't read me i think allison is the other zombie i'm playing it a little safe
14:41as opposed to me trying to win it with another zombie i've instead been making alliances across the
14:47group where i would tell the maximum amount of people i'm the zombie to secure myself a place
14:53away from the death match do you remember what was on the card when you picked it up
15:06i don't know just i'm guessing it was just the
15:10it said human but i don't know what if there was a picture that's fair that's yeah yeah
15:17okay before i said before you say anything i'm happy to be honest about what i am i am a human
15:32good okay we are genuinely willing to work with
15:35a zombie i am as well who do you think is a zombie i think charlotte might be how do we play this
15:40i think we should all just touch at least we're all getting two points and we're in one
15:43yeah okay yeah my god is this a private yeah yeah you want to stay as a three are you a zombie
15:51no i'm a human okay if you are a zombie you're welcome to come into this room and have an open
15:56discussion with three humans well then i'm just gonna come in i think all three of us were kind
16:00of hoping that one of the three of us would be a zombie so with that being said are you a zombie or a
16:05human i am a zombie perfect that is really good news what do you want out of the game i just
16:12honestly i'm happy to work with anyone as long as whoever was the winner for example if you guys
16:18wanted to go for the win didn't pick me for the death match okay it's quite easy to be a zombie
16:22actually because the death match candidate will just be the person with the lowest number of points
16:28and it's very unlikely for a large group of humans to band together when they don't know who the zombies
16:33are which means there will always be a group that has a lower amount of points but by telling both
16:38sides that i'm the zombie i've basically secluded myself from that choice and that was my plan
16:46so i think what's going to happen is if one of you were to touch me you take the antidote right but
16:51you don't tell anyone you take the antidote and i give you my one okay i'd be one to do that so
16:56shallots the zombie this is perfect we were looking for a zombie we can now form a strategy we need to
17:00find probably one if not two more humans in that other group there is another zombie out there we're
17:05not sure who it is if we find that zombie instead that could be problematic do you have an idea who
17:10the other person is okay can we do ours now yeah trusting you can so the strategy at the moment is
17:22that i will touch with as many humans as i can thank you i'm working with scott who's a human and ken who
17:34i also believe is a human this means that i will guarantee at least two points from them two i trust
17:41trust you i trust you too i hope i trust you but then i also need to get some more points because
17:49the other guys could potentially get three each so i need to find a way to overtake them and not be
17:55the lowest human ready let's do it ken my life in your hands go for it
18:01it is done we have touched thank you should we go yeah go for it
18:12okay i'm trusting you again i'm going i'm going wild in this round you did good last time yeah
18:19okay can i say they've just kicked me out because i think i'm a zombie i'm not a zombie
18:25i'm human but i believe i'm human as well should we just go yeah i think somebody in that team i
18:30think somebody's blocking as a zombie yeah has to be what i'll do then not that i don't trust you but
18:39if i know i do trust you i do trust you i'm going to say my answer to it for next round
18:44you're definitely human definitely human okay
18:55it's all it's all falling to pieces alison and malfi have touched
19:10that's alison and malfi just now just now do i take this what do you think is it beneficial for you
19:21to or is it not it depends if it's on me now or wait around it's still in my control i'll take it
19:27i'll keep this i don't know it looks like i haven't taken it i drank mine and threw it in the
19:37everyone's gonna know i've touched you yeah but i don't do it yeah no no no you don't tell
19:43time's up for round one here are the results
19:45oh
19:53one human has been turned into a zombie which means there are now three zombies and seven humans
19:59and that proves i can't be a zombie i touched three people i touched two i touched two probably
20:03me i'll be taking an antidote do you think i'm stupid yeah antidote we will now begin round two
20:09bex bex we need you can i steal you for a second yeah oh what's going on after round one i'm starting
20:18to have those yeah i can see flaws in this strategy bex come here we've got a winning solution bex
20:24please bex bex bex we need no bex hold on we want her first we called her first bex no no you joined
20:30our bubble bex bex bex come here you've already touched that let me just go with them for two
20:36minutes bex bex please you've joined our bubble this is really important i will consider this a
20:42betrayal at the highest level that's what a bubble means
20:45bex bex bex bex come here we've got a winning solution bex bex bex bex bex bex bex bex we need
21:06we want her first we caught her first no no you joined our bubble bex bex come here
21:14bex bex bex please you've joined our bubble this is really important i will consider this a betrayal
21:23at the highest level that's what a bubble means it doesn't yes it is no i'll come and chat with you
21:30but you're going to chat to everyone else bex oh my god bex not chatting i aren't touching okay
21:36I trust Bex, OK? It's more about Scott than Bex,
21:39because I don't trust him as far as I can throw him.
21:41And the only thing that can ruin our strategy
21:43is somebody deviating from the bubble,
21:45because if one of us goes, then all the rest of us are compromised.
21:48I mean, to be fair, it's a little bit about Bex.
21:50I do think Bex could be convinced, potentially.
21:53Hi. Are you a zombie? No.
21:55I know who one zombie is. Which one?
21:57Charlotte is definitely a zombie.
21:59We believe Alison is the second zombie.
22:01She has touched a man face.
22:03So he is the third zombie.
22:07The rest of the team are all humans, we believe.
22:10And you're the only other human in the game who I know is a human,
22:13who I need to be able to touch, at least in one round.
22:15The people that thought they knew what they were doing,
22:18they've got to a point where they're a little bit like, uh-oh.
22:21The thing is, is that they need to get extra touches,
22:24and the people that need to give the extra touches are in my gang,
22:27so they're struggling with getting touches.
22:31Yeah?
22:32Oh, my gosh.
22:35Um, you guys have talked.
22:36Yeah, we're finished now. You...
22:38I think you might be a zombie.
22:41I'm not going to lie to you.
22:42Me? Yeah.
22:43I promise you I'm not.
22:44Because right now I need to go for points as well,
22:46but I need to figure out who I can touch,
22:48and I've really taken antidote so I can only buy one more.
22:51What do you say?
22:52You took it after Alison? Yeah.
22:54But now...
22:55Can you show your antidote if that's OK?
22:57No problem.
22:58The antidote's empty, and I have two garnets here as well.
23:03OK.
23:04My suspicion is that Alison's a zombie.
23:07Hi.
23:08Sorry. Hello.
23:09Hello.
23:10What's going on?
23:12What's going on?
23:14What's that mean?
23:15We're trying to figure out...
23:16So you two are zombies.
23:17I'm not a zombie.
23:18You're 100% a zombie.
23:19I'm 100% not a zombie.
23:21And you guys...
23:22I think it's hilarious that everybody thinks I'm a zombie.
23:25So I think either one of you guys were,
23:27and then you touched and the other one turned you into a zombie.
23:29I think so.
23:30I think you turned all the two as it can be.
23:31There is a risk that in their group there could be one zombie.
23:38Did you all touch just once each?
23:40Yeah.
23:41One of you could be a zombie.
23:42It's possible.
23:43It's possible.
23:44But I don't think so.
23:45Someone in that group...
23:46You took your...
23:47Yeah, I took my antidote.
23:49I can't be a zombie.
23:50So I can't have infected him.
23:52Exactly.
23:53Because it would have gone up.
23:54You took one of your antidotes.
23:55I only have one.
23:56I'm going to get one of you.
23:57What are you going to taste of?
23:58It was sweet.
23:59You took your antidote after touching one person,
24:01which was me.
24:02Shall we discuss this?
24:03Can we discuss this?
24:04It can't be me, can it?
24:05Shall we chat, folks?
24:06We'll just have to really quickly do some calculation.
24:08Can you close the door?
24:10I'll leave them.
24:12What the fuck?
24:13I think they're both zombies.
24:15It's my suspicion they took it.
24:17They're trying to get everyone to be zombies.
24:19Can I go in and buy an antidote?
24:22Man, it's okay.
24:26I trust you.
24:29With my life.
24:32I trust you.
24:34Does anyone want to touch?
24:36I'll touch it.
24:37I'll touch it.
24:38Do it now.
24:39Do it now.
24:40Okay.
24:41Beautiful.
24:42There we go.
24:43I need to go for points, but right now I think them two are zombies and one more person,
24:52who is Alison.
24:53So I've gone and bought an antidote and now I need to kind of get in the group or get as many points as possible.
25:00You bought an antidote, so you don't think you're a zombie right now?
25:03I don't think.
25:04No, I'm not.
25:05Because I took one the first round as well.
25:06I can't be a zombie right now.
25:07If you're 100%.
25:08I'm 100%.
25:09I've taken an antidote.
25:10Do you want to take my garnet?
25:11You sure took the antidote.
25:12Took the antidote.
25:13You for sure took the antidote.
25:14Have one garnet now.
25:15End of last round.
25:16Yes.
25:17After tapping.
25:18Yes.
25:19100%.
25:20Hand on heart.
25:21Which side's the heart?
25:22You're the doctor.
25:23It's in the middle.
25:24I'm the PT.
25:25It's shaking.
25:26We had a tough situation.
25:27Exactly.
25:28Do you promise me?
25:29I promise you.
25:30You are human.
25:31I'm human.
25:32And I need points.
25:33I'm not coming in last.
25:34That's what's happening.
25:35I'm not coming in last in this game.
25:37In the next round, right?
25:38No matter what.
25:39Okay.
25:40Thank you very much.
25:41Thanks.
25:42You're definitely human.
25:43Amanfi?
25:44Definitely.
25:45Let's touch and see what happens.
25:47I touch with Amanfi at the very end.
26:03So just one extra person this round.
26:05At this stage, I'm just worried.
26:07What if I've trusted the wrong people already
26:09I'm just somebody a zombie anyway?
26:10And I won't know.
26:16Alison?
26:17Yeah?
26:18Oh, attach.
26:19Attach.
26:20Attach.
26:21Oh, that's a shame.
26:30I want everyone to see this.
26:32So I have touched with Alison and I am taking my antidote.
26:34Which means you'll stay a human.
26:36India?
26:37Huh?
26:38I have touched Alison.
26:39You touched Alison.
26:40And I am taking my antidote.
26:44Round two is over.
26:45Here's the results.
26:51Two more humans have been turned into zombies, meaning there are now five zombies and five humans.
26:57Hmm.
26:58Sounds about right.
26:59That's what I expected.
27:00That's what you expected.
27:01Yeah.
27:02But there's two ways it could be five and five.
27:06And it's...
27:07And it's two separate groups that can do five and five.
27:10Two exact groups.
27:11Exactly.
27:12I was thinking about it too.
27:13You guys could be mistrusting someone in your group.
27:16Yeah.
27:17More likely.
27:18The people in that group of four, they seem to trust each other.
27:21But the way the numbers actually came down and everything that's happened makes me think there is one zombie in there.
27:26And they've just laid low.
27:30Good luck in the final round.
27:32As long as we just stick to our plan, it doesn't matter who the five-five is.
27:35And if one of you is a starting zombie, then good play.
27:37Yeah, exactly.
27:38I won't be mad.
27:39Good play.
27:40Right.
27:41Let's get our touches in.
27:51Okay.
27:52Touch.
27:53Let's go.
27:54All right.
27:55Let's go.
27:56I think this is actually going to work.
27:57We need to figure out what's going on.
28:02Okay.
28:03I touched a monthly.
28:05You're a human.
28:09Definitely.
28:11Oh, sorry.
28:12No, come on.
28:13We need you a second.
28:14We know what you are.
28:15We know the situation.
28:16You're a zombie.
28:17Yeah.
28:18We know that.
28:19Okay.
28:20Guys.
28:21Guys.
28:22I'm throwing things out.
28:23I'm a zombie as well.
28:25Have you lied to me?
28:26Mmm.
28:27Mmm.
28:28Mmm.
28:41Guys.
28:42I'm throwing things out.
28:43I'm a zombie as well.
28:46It's a few lied to me.
28:47Mmm.
28:48Mmm.
28:4945 minutes earlier.
28:56In the dealer room, I picked up the zombie card.
28:59Gives me a lot of control.
29:00Right.
29:01I'm a zombie.
29:02Are you actually?
29:03I believe I'm human.
29:04Shall we just go?
29:05Yeah.
29:06I touched with Alison because I needed to spread the virus.
29:09I'm going to take my antidote right now.
29:11Why?
29:12People will be able to work out I'm a zombie because Alison's the only person that's become
29:15a zombie.
29:16If we swap bottles, protect me here.
29:21I gave my antidote to Amanthi.
29:25He says he's human.
29:26So, hopefully, if he ends up top, he won't choose me for the death match.
29:30We'll see.
29:31I faked buying an antidote to convince everyone I was a human.
29:35I'm going to say that I drank it and left it in here.
29:37Let's get rid of one of these.
29:39Where can I hide this?
29:40I like to play games keeping my cards close to my chest.
29:47Took the antidote.
29:48You for sure took the antidote.
29:49Have one garnet now.
29:50So, you don't think you're a zombie right now?
29:52I don't think.
29:53No, I'm not.
29:54Because I took one the first round as well.
29:55Do you promise me?
29:56I promise you that I'm a human.
30:00Thanks.
30:01Definitely human.
30:02Amanthi?
30:03Definitely.
30:04The plan is to make everyone run a zombie.
30:08Yeah.
30:09I can't remember.
30:10It's okay.
30:11Man, why didn't you tell me?
30:12You put your hand on your heart as well.
30:14I know, but as a zombie, you have to lie.
30:16And one moment in that situation, not put my hand on my heart.
30:22I tried to pivot really quickly.
30:24And me telling Charlotte, Badali, and Scott that I am a zombie
30:28is probably my last Hail Mary.
30:30Right now, I need to help Scott to win because I need to make sure
30:35that there are winners that have me in their good favours.
30:38Once they're in the lead, they have the choice of who the death
30:41match candidate is.
30:42Hopefully it isn't me.
30:43It's happened twice now.
30:45I have shown willingness to work with him and trust him and giving him that chance
30:50and the opportunity to be honest with me.
30:53But he didn't take it.
30:54The only way I can win is by infiltrating them.
30:57This zombie apocalypse is an absolute nightmare.
31:00I've lost control of the situation.
31:02I think there's a group which I've wrestled control in.
31:04I will continue trying to break into that group.
31:06I've had a word with Dex.
31:07She seemed to be slightly open to it, but I'll see if I can lean on that
31:11to convince her that it's in her benefit to win.
31:13There's really no reason to talk to anyone else outside the bubble, honestly.
31:16There's no point.
31:17You need to trust me.
31:19I tried to...
31:20You need to trust me.
31:21I'll just have a quick chat with Scott.
31:22Oh, my God.
31:23Let me talk to her first.
31:24Chill.
31:25You can trust me on that.
31:26Chill.
31:27Ben has absolutely no reason not to trust me in this game.
31:29I think he's just panicking a little bit, and all I'm trying to do
31:32is collect information and go back and help the team.
31:35I'm just trying to help him.
31:36I don't understand why she keeps running off to talk with Scott.
31:39Thanks, buddy.
31:40Right.
31:44I am human.
31:45Right, OK.
31:46For me to stay human as such another human, and you're the only one I trust to be a human.
31:49Yeah.
31:50Which would give me up to three points, which would be enough to be on level with you guys.
31:53If I touched you, you'd be on four points, which would give you the win.
31:57Yeah.
31:58And if that happened, and we're all on three, then we'd be the ones...
32:00For the death match, and you'd have the final say.
32:02Right, so this is how I'm going to check it, right?
32:04I'm going to go through, and you and Amanfy are the two that I'm going to try and save.
32:09They're the people I'm going to put up for safe and play.
32:11OK, I would appreciate that if you could go for that.
32:13That's all I'm going to tell you.
32:14I will understand that.
32:15Are you touching?
32:17No.
32:19I told you I'm not.
32:20You're giving me a heart attack.
32:21Chill.
32:22So, Bex has said she's not for shifting, but when it comes to death match, us two will be safe.
32:28I touched no one in that round.
32:30I wanted to become a zombie.
32:31There was no benefit to being the remaining human on two points.
32:34And I was never going to convince one of the other four remaining humans to touch me anyway.
32:38So, it all had the same end result. I'm a zombie at the end of the game.
32:41I just want you to know that I have a way of winning this game completely, and I'm not taking it.
32:46I appreciate that.
32:47OK, we all do it together. We all finish together, OK?
32:50OK.
32:51Oh, my gosh. I was wanted in this round. I think that was key to my game is that it's still showing that I can be trusted.
32:57If I can make myself friendly and trustworthy to as many people as possible, I effectively have a team of people that want to keep me in.
33:05The game is over.
33:06Did the humans triumph or are we entering the zombie apocalypse? Let's find out.
33:12Here are the results.
33:19One more human became a zombie, so the game ends with six zombies and four humans.
33:27That's what we expected.
33:29Please be the right of all humans.
33:34Yes.
33:38Benjamin, Bex, Pasha and Indy all receive three points remaining as humans, and therefore each win a token of life.
33:45All other players are now zombies and are at risk of being selected as the deathmatch candidate.
33:50I'm really pleased with how the game went today.
33:53I identified the right strategy, put the right group together.
33:56And so I'm really proud of that. I think I'm going to be in such a good position moving forward.
33:59The original zombies were...
34:08...Charlotte and Amanfy.
34:10I used you for my strategy, I'm sorry.
34:15Amanfy is going to come unstuck because he's annoying people, so his days are numbered.
34:25Alison put her trust in me.
34:28I feel bad for using her to get ahead in the game, but I think you have to be sharper than that when you're dealing with alliances, otherwise you can get tricked real easily.
34:43Can you pick the person who betrayed me?
34:46OK.
34:47We'll see.
34:49OK, guys.
34:52Firstly, well done, guys.
34:53Yeah.
34:54Well done, guys.
34:56Amanfy has gone behind my back and his own team's back a couple of times, so...
35:01Yeah.
35:02Amanfy is very devious.
35:03Oh, gosh.
35:04Yeah, I know.
35:06Well, my number one I don't want going is Amanfy.
35:09I don't want Amanfy going.
35:10OK, that's fair enough.
35:11So he's my number one.
35:12Good game.
35:13Again.
35:14I was a little bit disrespectful, but as a zombie, I had to be.
35:17Yes.
35:18The person who goes in the deathmatch, we've got to be sure that they will lose that deathmatch.
35:24It's no point picking somebody who's going to win and then have a grievance against us.
35:28We need to pick the weakest person.
35:29OK.
35:30I mean, but then there's argument for also eliminating one of the strongest players.
35:34This is a chance to take a shot.
35:35Free choice.
35:36This is why I think we go for Scott, because...
35:38Oh, my God, really?
35:39I think so.
35:40Scott's a massively good player, and I don't think he'll go home.
35:43And then he'll use that going forward.
35:45Who else is there?
35:47Between all of them, I think I would pick either Scott or Alison.
35:54Please return to the atrium.
36:06Please now reveal which player has been selected as the deathmatch candidate.
36:15I'm happy to confirm on behalf of the group.
36:17We've decided to go with Scott as the deathmatch candidate.
36:26Yeah, I know.
36:27We're incredibly sorry.
36:28No hard feelings.
36:29I knew it was coming.
36:30Today has gone pretty much as I had feared and slightly as I'd expected it might have gone.
36:36I knew if I didn't win and protect myself today, I was going to be one of the main contenders to be on the chopping block.
36:42What a fall from grace is what I'll say.
36:45Benjamin, Pasha, Bex and Indy have each gained a token of life.
36:51Scott, please choose someone without a token of life to join you in the deathmatch.
37:04Ah, this is a harder decision.
37:14I will not be picking Charlotte, I think.
37:17You gave me the token of life yesterday and immunity yesterday, so...
37:21Ken, I see you as a valuable ally, so I wouldn't want to lose you either, so...
37:31Dahlia...
37:33I'll protect you for now.
37:40I'm a man for you in Alison.
37:46Unfortunately, one of you has to be it.
37:49It's not an easy choice.
37:52I'll say a man for you has the garnet advantage.
37:56If you win the deathmatch, I will give you a garnet.
38:00Okay.
38:01And hopefully we'll be allies in the future as well.
38:08I'm happy with that.
38:10Scott.
38:13I'll give you a garnet if you don't pick Alison.
38:16Wow.
38:19It probably wasn't a smart game move on my part to offer a garnet and interject myself into this negotiation.
38:26Make an enemy of a Monfi.
38:28Alison wanted to work with us today.
38:29And then she was kicked out of my bubble.
38:31I'm the one who did it to her.
38:32I kicked her out and stopped her from being safe and having a joint win.
38:36And so I wouldn't be able to go to sleep tonight if I didn't stick up for her.
38:40I would like to confirm that the candidate I would like to choose for the deathmatch is Alison.
38:49I'm not scared of going into the deathmatch.
38:55I hope I don't lose, but this is a game where you have to take some risks.
39:00Today's deathmatch is hidden knots and crosses, which is like knots and crosses, but instead of three lines it's six.
39:12And some of the knots and crosses are white and some are gold, and plus you won't be able to see where they are.
39:17So, cards on the table, not very much like knots and crosses, but we have to give a game a name, don't you?
39:24In this game, players must rearrange a grid of white and gold knots or crosses to create trios of knots and crosses in a single colour,
39:32in horizontal, vertical or diagonal lines.
39:37Players will have 90 seconds to memorise the pattern before the pattern is hidden.
39:42On each turn, a player has two options. View one of the discs or blindly swap the location of two discs.
39:50At the end of their turn, the player will have the option to lock in three discs.
39:54If a match is correctly identified, the player earns three points.
39:58These discs cannot be moved or used in any subsequent matches.
40:02However, if a match is not revealed, the discs turn back and the player will lose one point.
40:07The first player to reach ten points wins the death match and their opponent is eliminated.
40:13The death match will begin shortly.
40:17That is crazy hard.
40:20I don't know how good Alison is with these types of games, but I'm hoping she doesn't have as good memory.
40:24So, I'd say I'm feeling quietly confident, shall we say.
40:27You only need to get four in order to win and you can make two mistakes and still get your ten points.
40:32Okay.
40:33Unless memory gains his least favourite, then I'm probably in a bit of trouble.
40:38How you feeling Alison?
40:41You okay?
40:42I was hoping that I'd get something that I didn't have to memorise.
40:46Memorise.
40:47Yeah.
40:48But hey ho.
40:49Okay, let's focus.
40:53So, once it gets revealed, I think that a good strategy is to look for ones that are already in groups of two.
41:01Yeah.
41:02Then you can spot ones that are out on their own.
41:04Yeah.
41:05All you have to do is now swap this one with this one.
41:07Yeah.
41:08This one with this one.
41:09Yeah.
41:10Okay?
41:11I would never spend my turn revealing.
41:13Okay.
41:14What I would do is spend your turn swapping ones that he knows that belong to him.
41:19So, you mess him up.
41:20Yeah.
41:22It's a pure race.
41:23It's a pure race, yeah.
41:24Yeah.
41:25If I can lock in the three straight away and I'm certain, I'm putting Alison under pressure.
41:29I can make a couple of mistakes.
41:30It doesn't make a difference.
41:31You can make two mistakes in this game.
41:32Two mistakes and there's no consequence.
41:33You can always make two mistakes.
41:34There are six in play.
41:36There's six.
41:37Yeah.
41:38There's 18.
41:39Nine of each colour, so there's a possible six out there.
41:42Okay.
41:43Good luck.
41:44Thanks, guys.
41:45You got this.
41:46This will be a good alliance going forward if I survive.
41:59Players, the time has come.
42:02The death match will now begin.
42:08Good luck.
42:09Good luck.
42:10Oh, my gosh.
42:12Scott, as death match candidate, would you prefer to play Noughts or Crosses?
42:17Please, may I play Noughts?
42:19Addison, you will play Crosses.
42:22Scott, as death match candidate, who would you like to play first?
42:26I would like to play first.
42:27We will now turn the discs.
42:28Please turn your backs to the table.
42:36I think I can win this.
42:37At the end of the day, if I get four correct lock-ins in a row, I win the game and there's nothing Alison can do about it.
42:42Theoretically, I might be the underdog, but I'm not having that attitude.
42:45I'm a great believer in positive thinking and I would like Scott to regret his decision.
42:52You may now turn around.
42:53You will have 90 seconds to memorise this arrangement.
42:560000 A
43:070000 A
43:140000
43:180000
43:21your time is up please turn your backs to the table
43:28may both turn around
43:37Scott would you like to reveal a disc or swap two discs
43:43I'd like to swap two discs please
43:45which two discs would you like to swap
43:48this disc
43:55this disc
43:58would you like to lock in a match
44:07yes
44:13which three discs would you like to reveal
44:16A3
44:23which three discs would you like to reveal

52:11players
52:12the death match is now over
52:14congratulations Alison
52:16you are the winner
52:20thank you
52:22one of the things that motivated me
52:27was thinking that Scott thought it was going to be a walkover
52:31and I wasn't prepared to let that happen
52:33I'm very pleased
52:34your tips help me so much
52:36thank you
52:37thank you
52:38I just did what you said
52:39thank you
52:40I was obviously rooting for Alison
52:41and rooting against Scott
52:42this is a game
52:43where you're not meant to really care about people's feelings in this way
52:47so I guess maybe I'm a bit more loyal than I thought I was
52:50I just lost it
52:51I couldn't
52:52you did so well
52:53well done
52:54you played well
52:55you played well
52:56I'm disappointed
52:57I think Alison played a fantastic game
52:59let me flounder and then use that to her advantage
53:01she was ruthless in that game so full credit to her
53:05the game is now over
53:06so who's going home with naught
53:08and is also very cross
53:09that'll be me
53:12Alison you have made it through to the next day
53:15Scott
53:16you are the second person to be eliminated from genius game
53:20karma
53:22I'll take this one spell for Paul
53:24please give your garnets to your opponent
53:26thank you for playing
53:27thank you very much
53:28thank you very much
53:29I'm sorry you've got to go home
53:30it's been a joy
53:31for us at least
53:32and now to everyone else
53:34we'll meet again next time
53:36go lie down
53:37give your poor wee brains a rest
53:40bye Scott
53:41bye Scott
53:42I'm in it for the long game
53:43so I'm not going to be overly smug
53:45and overly cocky
53:46about having survived a death match
53:49not only has she won
53:51she's put the fear of God into all of these people
53:53who just saw her kick some ass
53:55and I could not be more excited
54:02next time
54:04here we go again
54:05nine players return
54:07we've talked
54:08one of you is still a dead man walking
54:12in our main match
54:13Benjamin is pulling all the strings
54:15oh my god
54:16I'm so confused with what's going on
54:18if I can pull this off
54:20I will have earned my spot in the genius game
54:22but not everyone wants to follow his lead
54:24I could mess this whole game up right now
54:27think about who you trust
54:29who will find themselves in the death match
54:32nooo
54:33I'm so disappointed
54:35there's only one genius can leave victorious
54:50that in all of these things
54:52you know
54:53I'll have a good time
54:55here we go
54:56and we will be getting back
54:57to the end of this and to the end of this game
54:58they're our best
54:59we will be taking a chance
55:00and I'll have a bad time
55:01I'll have a bad time
55:02with this that she goes
55:03what he wants to do
55:04is also life
55:05and so like
55:06for you
55:07you know
55:08you've got a lot of ideas
55:09that are being used
55:10I believe
55:11but
55:12though
55:13can win
