Spoilers for the season-four finale of The Traitors.

After that killer betrayal in The Traitors finale, it would be difficult to imagine a world where Rob Rausch and Maura Higgins start dating, but stranger things have happened. During the reunion, Andy Cohen asked them about their “undeniable chemistry” throughout the competition. “The whole cast was saying it to us, weren’t they?” Maura asked Rob before Cohen asked her what she thought. “We were genuinely just friends … We never, like, had a flirt.” Rob disagreed, “I feel like we probably flirted a little bit.” But it might be hard for Maura to trust Rob again; throughout the game, the two stuck together, and they made it to the final vote, only for Maura to discover that Rob was a Traitor the whole time.

Cohen asks if there might be a future between them, as Maura isn’t dating anyone at the moment. “You get my Birkin, you’re forgiven. We go from there,” Maura joked. Unfortunately, Rob is not single and has been dating someone for the past two months, breaking everyone’s heart in the castle just one last time. Siri, play “The One That Got Away.”
