Thought a similar thing when the traitors had to put the blood marks on the family tree. Pretty sure it was Rachel, Reece and Stephen standing at it and Rachel asked Reece to leave to speak to Stephen privately. Thought it was weird that Reece never raised this when it had come out about the family tree.

Faithful or Murderous Traitor?
Couldn't possibly say
It felt like Harriet almost wanted to go tonight… really poor play from her considering she was right on the money with Rachel. There’s better ways to do it than that…
Sounds like Stephen is smashing it and has no one who suspects him at the moment… very curious who they have decided to murder!…

She was trying to play the "If I go, that'll prove it's Rachel" card, but unfortunately for her, the 'evidence' she produced wasn't evidence at all, it was just her gut feeling, and as is so often the case when someone does that, rather than put heat on the person they named, it has the opposite effect.

I think what this show demonstrates over and over is that being right is pointless if you can’t be right in the right way.
Pragmatism not idealism.

Harriet's rather aggressive speech at breakfast sealed her fate. Right or not, you cant do that and expect to get away with it.

Anything that makes you stand out will get you attention and banishment/murder in the early stages - you can be as right as possible (like last night) but if you’re voted out then it’s all pointless and you get no money.
Then you have Jade - barely says anything, doesn’t get involved and is still here with no real suspicion about her to the extent she’s in any real danger. It won’t get her right the end, but doing well so far!

I think Harriet thought she would be murdered anyway - so may as well try to go and get a traitor. Didn't have evidence, but she's been correct before and perhaps thought she could convice the others to have faith in her.
Maybe winning wasn't her goal - just wants to sell more books!

I think you are right here. She was desperate to let people know about her books and job.
No she wasn't, she kept it quiet all the way through and only mentioned it for the first time in the morning. If she'd been desperate to let people know about it, she'd have been saying from the start.

Harriet's explanation on Traitors uncloaked made her actions clearer.
Essentially, she could have stayed close to Rachel but as the game went in she would have to start voting for people she knew were faithfuls and didn't want to be in that position.
There's probably also external factors at play - new book launching in February and she had an episode focused on her. Plus she's already wealthy and didn't need the prize money.
Yeah didnt she say something like "I've come here and done what I needed to so happy to be voted out"
Probably get more money from the book now with the extra Traitors promotion plus fans of the show will be buying her books now too. Quite astute marketing.
