NBC’s inaugural season of Destination X continues Tuesday, June 24, at 10:00 PM ET, with an episode titled Moral Compass. The game of high-stakes deception and geographic guessing takes a turn, as host Jeffrey ramps up the difficulty, introducing a fairytale theme that makes the lines between honesty and trickery even blurrier.
The conceit remains the same: competitors are on a blacked-out bus, trying to work out their hidden locations to win. Along the way, they face challenges that dole out clues—and misdirects. This week, the players leave the bus, traveling by train to the next secret Destination X, forcing them to adapt their strategies on the fly.
What makes Moral Compass particularly interesting is the deliberate push towards bluffing. Competitors face direct choices: tell the truth about a clue, or lie to throw others off the scent? It’s a game where trust is a liability and manipulation can be a winning strategy.
At the close of each episode, the player farthest from the actual location is eliminated, making every decision a potentially final one. This episode will test not just their wits, but their willingness to deceive for a chance at victory.
Destination X airs Tuesday, June 24, 2025, at 10:00 PM ET on NBC.
