DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, CARIBBEAN: 'The Trust: A Game of Greed' Season 1 gets intense as the contestants' loyalty has been put to the test after a series of broken trusts. In the latest episode, Winnie Ilesso was surrounded by elimination threats after Brian Firebaugh, Gaspare Randazzo and Jake Chocolous accused the Netflix show contestant of voting out Bryce Lee.

Brian and Gaspare felt threatened by Winnie's game plans and thought that if they didn't eliminate her, she would vote out for them. Winnie was eliminated in Episode 7 after multiple people voted against her.

Gaspare admitted in the confessional, "Winnie, Tolu and Jay are seemingly coming after us. So we need to now go on the defence."

Brian then called Winnie 'dangerous and planned to eliminate her to cut off another contestant as they reached near to winning the huge cash prize.

They claimed that Winnie had been controlling other contestants in the house and they were getting rid of the people, adding, "They're shooting down their own closest friends."

Winnie Ilesso receives silver stripe power card for Vault

'The Trust: A Game of Greed' Season 1 host Brooke Baldwin offered a silver stripe power card for the Vault to Winnie Ilesso. The contestants gathered around the pool and the host said, "Tonight I'll be asking you all one big question, who here has been telling the most lies?"

The contestants had to blow off three candles of the person who they thought had lied most in the house. Winnie was the only one whose all three candles were blown off and the Netflix show host secretly offered her a silver power card to Vault.

The host told Winnie, "I gave you that card with the silver stripe." She explained, "That means you're going into the vault and you're gonna be going into the vault by yourself."

Winnie was excited and said in the confessional, "When Brooke handed me that card, it was like somebody gave me a black Amex." 

She added, "Like you know you're about to do damage. Like you know... you just feel so powerful."

Winnie continued, "If money is on the line, but I have to vote somebody out, I'm going to take that and vote Jake out first."

Winnie Ilesso confronts 'The Trust: A Game of Greed' boys

After three candles of Winnie Ilesso were blown off, she suspected that Brian Firebaugh, Gaspare Randazzo and Jake Chocolous were behind the game. She went to the boys and directly confronted them and Gaspare and Jake admitted that they did blow off the candles and claimed that they weren't aware of Brian's step.

Winnie noted in the confessional, "In a boys' group, right, if you guys all make a decision together, you admit it."

She elaborated, "Whether you just ask one of them or two of them, you admit it. But they didn't. They singled Brian out and I thought that was very interesting."

However, when she asked why did they think she lied to them, Gaspare responded, "You are viewed as the leader of that side of the house."

He defended himself and noted, "I had to put a vote on somebody. You had to pick somebody. Like we all had to pick somebody. It's not personal."
