Rinna\u2019s reluctance to defend herself at the roundtable was uncharacteristic, as viewers know she can put up a fight, as seen on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">More from Deadline<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI didn\u2019t care. I wanted to go home. I could care less at that point,\u201d Rinna said in an interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/lisa-rinna-knew-nothing-colton-underwood-past-the-traitors-11898872\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:EW;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">EW<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Rinna\u2019s last act as a traitor was to murder a faithful in plain sight. For this task, Rinna needed to have someone touch her brooch and decided on Yam Yam to be murdered. When host Alan Cumming informed the participants that he had been murdered, he started yelling that Rinna had kissed him on the cheek, wrongfully believing that the kiss was what decided his fate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI\u2019m going home, what am I supposed to say? Why did Yam Yam say your name? How would you answer that? I don\u2019t know. \u2018He got it wrong. It\u2019s not the kiss. It was the amulet,&#8217;\u201d Rinna said. \u201cCan\u2019t say that at the roundtable, then they would know I\u2019m a Traitor. It\u2019s really interesting how people go, \u2018I would\u2019ve done this in that moment and this is what you should have done.\u2019 Are you kidding me? Good luck. I loved everything I did.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">She continued, \u201cSome people like Candiace are really good at it. I know that I needed to be quiet because if I was too loud at that roundtable, I would\u2019ve gone much sooner. I went with my gut, played it the way I did, and I knew it was over. I wasn\u2019t going to really defend and fight for myself too much because I did as much as I think you could. I\u2019m no dumb dumb. I know that my time is up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">With the Season 4 reunion in plain sight, Rinna also teased what she expects to do when she reunites with her co-stars.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI\u2019m just going to have fun. I see myself at the reunion just sitting there, eating popcorn. I\u2019m just going to giggle and have a good time,\u201d she said. \u201cI don\u2019t really have a beef with anyone and whoever has a beef with me, whatever, who cares? Fine. I\u2019m a Traitor. I\u2019m traitorous. I did my job really well. I have no alliances to anyone. I\u2019m not a Housewife anymore, so no alliance to anyone. I\u2019m a Traitor, baby. I actually suck as a Traitor, but I am the most iconic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Best of Deadline<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Sign up for <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.email.deadline.com\/signup\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Deadline&#039;s Newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Deadline&#8217;s Newsletter<\/a>.
