The Circle recently premiered a new set of episodes on September 25, just ahead of the season 7 finale. By the time episode 9 rolled around, eight contestants were still competing in the house for the grand prize of $100,000. The remaining players included Jadejha, Darian, Kevin, Rachel (portrayed by Deb), Gianna (played by Nicky and Jojo), Garret, Madelyn, and Tierra (played by Antonio).
With the power to block a contestant from the game resting on Kevin and Gianna, Kevin proposed an unexpected move to eliminate Darian. They agreed that Kevin would take the heat for this decision, given Gianna’s connection with Jadejha, who happens to be Darian’s romantic interest. This shocking turn of events resulted in Darian’s exit from the house.
Before leaving, Darian cautioned Jadejha against trusting Kevin, which prompted her to scrutinize his intentions the following day when discussions resumed. Garret, Tierra, and Rachel joined the conversation, raising concerns about Kevin’s unreliability, especially since he had not followed through on many promises.
The contestants participated in #CircleAMA, a game where one player could anonymously question another. This revealed more tension as other players continued to criticize Kevin for his betrayal of the group.
Jadejha took the chance to ask Kevin an anonymous question regarding who in his alliance he planned to target next. Meanwhile, Rachel shared that she works as a lifeguard, a profession Kevin had also claimed to possess. When Rachel asked him about the most common sign of drowning that people overlook, he failed to answer correctly, further fueling suspicions against him.
Realizing his precarious position, Kevin expressed his anxiety about being dropped in the hierarchy when the players voted for whom they considered to be the top influencer.
“The lifeguard who can’t save his own life right now. Damn, I should have just said I was a waiter,”stated Kevin.
Rachel Forces Kevin to Come Clean About His True Identity on The Circle Season 7
After the #CircleAMA events, Kevin understood that he needed to ally himself with other players as the entire house was turning against him. Remembering his earlier connection with Rachel, he invited her for a private conversation, hoping to strengthen their bond.
Rachel, considering that Kevin had no allies, decided to engage with him in hopes that it could lead to potential favors that would aid her game. She acknowledged their connection but also expressed her growing doubts about Kevin’s claims regarding himself.
Attempting to shift the narrative in his favor, Kevin probed Rachel to open up about her own life.
In a dramatic reveal, Rachel disclosed to Kevin that she holds a lifeguard certification and sensed that Kevin was not telling the truth about his background. Under pressure, Kevin confessed that he was not a lifeguard but a wine salesman.
“I actually work in the wine and alcohol industry, but the rest of Kevin is real. I felt like a lifeguard would be more respected than some guy who sells booze,”texted Kevin.
As the drama unfolded on The Circle, Rachel did not disclose her true identity as Deb, a 54-year-old woman, but reassured Kevin that he could trust her. Kevin believed her and felt excited about finally having an ally during such tumultuous times.
Episodes 9-12 of The Circle season 7 are currently available for streaming on Netflix.
