expelling someone.
As time passed, everyone understand they have to expel someone because that one person voting against never going to change their choice. They will runout of time if they keep doing nothing. So everyone changed their minds and ultimately decided to vote out someone. Ayanokoji spoke out and revealed Kushida is the one secretly voting against them.
