The semi-final of The Power 2026 takes a completely unpredictable turn in the May 28 episode. While the Players think they finally have the name of the accomplice and the mystery Power Player, Jonathan remains the only one who is not completely convinced. An intuition which could well change everything a few minutes before the decisive ceremony.
Manon Van cracks under pressure from the Players
A clue shakes up the semi-final
For several days, the candidates have been trying to discover the identity of the mystery player hidden behind the 40 portraits displayed in the villa. But this time, a new clue completely changes the investigation.
Damien wins a crucial test and discovers a message with serious consequences: “My accomplice and I share much more than a simple secret, we share a story. Along the way from a previous adventure, before the eyes of all of France, we both found love.”.
Manon Van targeted by players
Immediately, suspicion turns to Manon Van. The Players quickly realize that she is a perfect match for the clue after her relationship with Jordan in 10 perfect couples.
Cornered on all sides, Manon finally breaks down and admits to being the accomplice of the mystery Power Player. For the candidates, victory seems close.
And when she explains that she only knew Jordan and Paga in reality TV shows, a new theory is immediately born: Giuseppa would necessarily be the Power Player since she also shares a story linked to Paga. A lead that dangerously distances the Players from the truth.
Jonathan remains the only one to doubt
While the entire villa seems convinced that they have finally understood who the Power Player is, Jonathan nevertheless continues to be suspicious.
During the semi-final ceremony, the candidates voted overwhelmingly against Manon Van as an accomplice. A collective success which brings everyone closer to the final, but which also directly places the candidate in danger of elimination.
However, one detail bothers Jonathan. Manon Van’s attitude seems much too calm for a candidate expected to risk her place at the gates of the final. “It’s the attitude of a person who has won.”he blurted out in front of the other Players.
A phrase that immediately changes the atmosphere of the ceremony. Because for several days already, certain candidates have discreetly mentioned another possibility: what if the real Power Player was ultimately Manon Tanti, who returned to defend her title after her victory in season 2?
Beverly still manipulates the whole villa
While Jonathan tries to understand what is really going on, Beverly discreetly pursues her own strategy.
During the telephone confrontation organized earlier by Kaos, she discovered the true identity of the mystery player: Manon Tanti.
Since then, Beverly has secretly helped the candidate to protect her secret and that of Manon Van. To do this, his strategy is simple: make the entire villa believe that Giuseppa is necessarily the Power Player. And the plan works perfectly. But for how long? Did the Players see through Manon Van and Beverly’s game? Did they choose the right Power Player during the May 28 ceremony?
