Ben's Journey Through The Tower[]
On Floor 6 'Wall Of Sorrow', Ben received three votes as Saboteur - one from Billy because "I heard him kick the wall down", one from George because "I heard the bricks fall down near him", and one from Alyson because "I heard the bricks go down beside me". Ben voted for Billy as the Saboteur because "When the bricks were knocked down, he wasn't standing in the right place". Holly also voted for Billy, while Fiona voted for Holly. The real Saboteur was Holly. As the team failed and Ben received the most votes, he got trapped.
When The Voice asked Ben "How do you feel about being trapped?", Ben said "I feel really sad and cross for the people that voted for me. It wasn't me".
