Brother."
Cheers to final three!
Final three!
[ Cheers and applause ] julie: good evening.
I'm julie chen moonves.
Welcome to the live season finale of "big brother."
Kaycee, tyler, and j.c.
She's a veto queen, he's the king of final two
Deals.
He is a self-proclaimed puppet master.
And they all enter the night with the same goal in mind: to
Avoid eviction, win over the jury, and ultimately take home
The half-million-dollar grand prize.
So, who will win it all?
We'll find out live, tonight.
But first, when last we saw the houseguests, they were flying
High in part one of the final head of household competition.
That actually was really loud.
The rules of this competition are simple: whoever holds on to
Their jetpack the longest wins part one of the final h.o.h.
Competition.
And they'll face off against the winner of part two in the last
Part of the h.o.h.
I told kaycee that I would throw the first part of the h.o.h. To
Her, but I need to decide if it's best for my game to be
Throwing anything right now.
Even though I have a final two with tyler, we all know that
If I didn't win the last h.o.h.
Competition, I would be in the jury house right now.
So I have to win this.
Feel the burn.
Tyler and I have a plan.
I win part one, he wins part two, then we meet up at part
Three and see who wins.
So I've got to put this plan in motion, and from there, win the
Whole game.
Wooo!
Oh, my gosh!
I was not expecting that!
What is this, "big brother"?
We're in top three!
We really need to be treated like royalty!
[ Laughter ] I hate this!
Aaarrggghh!
Burn so good.
Oh, come on!
Oh, my gosh.
All the way!
Are you kidding me?
My body's in pain, my shaking, my muscles are
Struggling.
I'm hating this ride.
I want my money back.
No, I can't.
Yes, you can.
[ Buzzer ].
This is terrible.
I really wanted to win this and control my fate in this game.
It sucks.
J.c. Fell.
This is perfect.
Now I'm just waiting for tyler to fall, and so I can go ahead
And take this win.
Drop, drop.
Oh, come on!
Now I have a big decision to make: do I fall and give this
Thing to kaycee?
I'm about to fall right now.
But I'm thinking I just need to hang on because I want to win
This thing, go straight to part three, have my fate in my own
Hands.
I can't feel my arms.
Oh!
I am losing every ounce of strength in my arms.
Just drop, tyler.
Drop, drop, drop!
Oh!
[ Buzzer ].
Sorry, babe.
That's what I'm talking about!
I got part one.
I am going to be on finale night battling for my spot in the
Final two.
This is my number one biggest dream of my entire life.
Like, I have notes that I left myself that says, life goals,
Win 'big brother,' and that's it.
Hopefully me not falling didn't change kaycee's mind and if she
Wins part three, she will still take me to the end.
Good job.
It was pretty annoying tyler wasn't able to drop as planned.
I have to stay focus.
I am going to take part and destroy j.c.
I can't lift my arms.
This is terrible, but right now is not the time to cry.
Right now I have to focus and I am going to be going to part two
Fighting with kaycee.
It's not over yet!
[ Cheers and applause ] julie: up next, kaycee and
J.c. Go head to head in part two of the final head of household
Competition of the summer.
Stay with us.
Horn, your clock starts and you'll be given a clue on the
Four houseguests to be carved into mount evictus.
You must take one houseguest's name up the wall you must swap
Out names.
Brett and winston.
Whoa.
sh**t!
sh**t!
I have a final two with tyler, but to guarantee that I make it
To final two, I have got to g myself there.
That's awesome.
Boom!
I crushed round one.
Bring on round two, baby!
First four houseguests to be evicted unanimously.
Julie: by a uman musvote, scottie, haleigh, brett, sam,
You are evicted from the "big brother" house.
For round two, I remember that there weren't that many
Unanimous evictions.
So scottie, brett, haleigh, and angela come to mind.
[ Buzzer ] dang it!
At least one thing's wrong, and I have no idea which one it is.
[ Buzzer ] what the heck!
[ Buzzer ] this is beyond frustrating.
This competition is so important and I can feel the clock
Ticking.
Are you kidding me!
Who the heck was the other person that was evicted
Unanimously.
[ Buzzer ] swaggy?
Steve, no.
Scottie, yes.
Sam.
Sam didn't even cross my mind as an option.
I am literally thinking that sam is in the house in the have-not
Room make something arts and crafts stuff.
[ Bell rings ] I think sam is still in the damn
House!
I am so mad at myself.
I wasted a lot of time in round two, and I cannot afford any
More mistakes.
First four houseguests to fall on "out on a limb."
I remember rockstar, fessy, brett, and bayleigh dropping
Pretty early, so I'm going to go ahead and try that.
[ Bell rings ] at this point, I'm kind of
Alone in the house, or at least that's how I feel.
So I need to win this part two of the final h.o.h. Competition,
Because it's my goal to get to part three.
[ Horn ] first houseguests to survive
An eviction night on the block.
Oh, I know this.
Sam, winston, brett.
I had a hand in all these game moves.
Thank god I've been practicing rope climbing inside the house.
Oh!
[ Laughs ] I should have practiced more the
Jumping part.
[ Bell rings ] first houseguests to be
Evicted unanimously.
Has to be scottie, brett, haleigh, and sam.
[ Bell rings ] genius.
So far, so good.
I'm making great time.
First houseguests to fall on "out on a limb."
Let me see if I remember who fell first.
This is all about timing now.
Rockstar was number one.
Followed by fessy.
I will put brett and angela because I think they didn't do
Well.
[ Buzzer ] oh!
I was doing so well.
Oh, my god.
I don't remember.
I know at least one answer is wrong.
I need to calm down and try to remember.
My game is on the line right now.
[ Buzzer ] oh, no!
At this point I have no idea.
I literally have no idea.
So I'm just going to go up there and start guessing.
[ Buzzer ] I have to keep moving.
I have to keep trying.
I can't believe my whole destiny in this game has come to me
Guessing.
[ Bell rings ] all right, let's see who won
The second part of the head of household competition and will
Face off against me in part three.
Kaycee, you finished with a time of... Minutes and seconds.
That's crazy.
All right, j.c.
Minutes and seconds.
Congrats, kaycee, you won part .
H.o.h. Part , here I come!
I am so excited, and I am so ready, baby.
I've come such a long way.
I cannot stop now.
I have to keep going!
I'm so close.
I'm so close.
And I can feel it, and I'm going to make it.
Part two!
I'm super stoked for kaycee.
It's her and I in part three.
As confident as I am that if she wins she'll take me to the final
Two with $, on the line, I cannot take any chances.
I need to win part three.
Wow, that was seconds.
It's all right, babe.
I feel disappointed.
I feel like... But I have to stay positive.
And my only hope right now is whoever wins this last h.o.h.
Competition takes me to the final two with them.
[ Cheers and applause ].
Julie: so, kaycee will now face off against tyler in part
Three of the final h.o.h.
Competition of the summer.
But first, season two winner, dr. Will kirby, sits down with
The jury, and they have a lot to say about the final three.
That debate is next.
Stay with us.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Julie: welcome back to the season finale of "big brother."
Soon, kaycee and tyler will go head to head live in part three
Of the final h.o.h. Competition of the summer.
But ultimately, the winner of "big brother" will be chosen by
The jury.
Recently, they met to discuss the meritz of the final three.
Houseguests, my name is dr. Will.
I'm a former "big brother" winner but I'm also a former
Jury member so I know what it's like to sit on those couches.
Tonight we'll be discussing the final three houseguests.
Now, before we discuss the final three we have to determine who
The final three are.
Who do you think will be joining us tonight as the next member of
This jury?
J.c.
I % think it will be j.c.
I think it will be angela.
I agree, I think it will be angela.
It would be so nice for the princess to get kicked off her
Pedestal.
I'd love it.
Any chance tyler would walk out here tonight?
No, but that would also be nice.
It's time to find out who will be the next juror tonight.
Hey, guys!
Woooo!
Angela!
I'm so excited to see you guys again.
It's a thrill!
What!
Angela, welcome to the jury.
How did you get here?
Well, j.c., That little...
Put me up.
He won an h.o.h.!
[ Cheers ] wow!
Kaycee won the veto.
She chose tyler.
Wow!
Yeah!
I am shocked.
Shocked.
The final two was tyler and kaycee.
Formed on day two.
Tyler and I made a final two on day three.
You were a day late.
Well, me and brett were also in an alliance since day three.
Me, brett, winston, rachel, kaycee, tyler.
The six of us.
Wait, what?
We called ourselves "level ."
Dang.
Guys, quick show of hands.
Who is here because of level ?
[ Laughs ].
Well, I , too.
So who's the leader?
I think tyler is controlling level , more so than kaycee.
I would say it's a collective group.
No, kaycee rode his coattails and that's what got her so far.
What did kaycee do to impress you?
I think kaycee played the best game socially.
She won five vetoes, one hacker, one h.o.h.
What did she do with the five vetoes.
Nothing.
Never used them.
That got her this far, though.
Yeah, I mean, I think the person that should win this game
Is the person that made the moves, not just stood behind the
Person and just followed them.
You're saying that because you're secretly in a showmance
With tyler.
[ Laughter ].
No, I honestly-- this is how I feel.
I respect people that make big moves, that will speak their
Minds, and I don't think kaycee ever did that.
Every time she won a veto she made the safest moves.
She had no reason to use the veto.
It wouldn't benefit her.
Winning five vetoes is a big move.
Let's throw this up-- maybe her big move was stringing you
Along letting you take all the hits and then voting you out.
That's what they did to you.
You were lulled into a sense of security.
I don't n don't feel like kay in people's ears causing those
Moves among the house.
I feel like she floated.
We're here to vote for the best player in the game, and as
A fan of the show, I mean, I got-- I got j.c. On that.
What did j.c. Do to impress you?
I think j.c. Was running things.
He put a lot of ideas in a lot of people's heads.
That's strategic.
I agree.
He's a brainwasher.
He basically got my teammate to put me on the block and kick
Me out and ruined everything.
Fess, it seems like j.c.
Played you.
Yeah, for sure.
[ Laughter ] he's in my head every week
Telling me scottie is the one flipping the votes, scottie is
The one coming after me.
I'm like, in my head, j.c.
Hasn't lied to me.
At first I was a little upset about it, but, I mean, that's
How this game works.
I think j.c.'S social game was amazing, but I don't think
J.c. Had a physical game.
He won one competition.
Isn't that more impressive?
He wasn't able to guarantee his safety and he was able to
Get that far.
Everybody likes j.c. And that's cute, but did j.c. Play
The best game?
No.
Tyler made many mistakes in the game and he still prevailed.
We tried to take shot after shot and he still beat all of us.
Like, that is a better game.
Brett, do you feel betrayed by tyler?
Do I feel betrayed?
Yes.
Absolutely.
But, I mean, I think I'm pretty good at reading people.
Like, I can hand it to him and I can say I did not think that he
Had the cajonnies to pull the move off that he did.
And he played me.
Man, he played, like, a lot of the people here, including
Me.
But this whole time he was making moves they had no idea
Existed and kept sliding by because of it.
I think he's played a great game.
I think he did very good at laying low, laying under the
Radar, until the very end.
Who has a bad taste in their mouth because of tyler when they
Walked into the jury house?
Scottie did.
Sam did.
I definitely had a sour taste walking into the jury house.
Because of tyler?
Oh, absolutely.
He's a little punk.
Yeah.
Was that personal and it's emotional?
Or is it amazing game play and you respect it?
Well, here's my thing-- honestly, some of the best "big
Brother" players were evil people.
So, yeah, he left a sour taste in our mouths, but we can't stop
Talking about tyler.
Every single person on this couch feels that game recognizes
Game.
Could anyone still win this game.
Yes.
Yes.
Totally.
%.
[ Cheers and applause ] julie: up next, we crown the
Final h.o.h.
Who will become the most powerful head of household of
The summer?
Find out next.
But first, although we'll be crowning the winner of "big
Brother ," don't worry.
"Big brother" will be back sooner than you think.
Last season, celebritied battled for a quarter of a
Million dollars.
You're in the "big brother" house, there are a lot of people
Who want to stab you in the back.
People are starting to lose their minds.
This winter, a whole new group of celebrities will move
In and compete.
He's in his underwear.
What!
You can catch up on "celebrity big brother," because
Season one is now streaming on cbs all access.
The amount of nondrinking that goes on in this place
Should be ill*gal.
Crazy.
Meow, meow.

I was in the "big brother" house.
It was very stressful.
I was only on the block two times, but those two times were

[ Cheers and applause ]
Julie: welcome back to the season finale of "big brother."
Just minutes ago, kaycee became the final head of household of
The summer.
Now, she must choose to evict either j.c. Or tyler.
Whoever is spared will compete against her for the
Half-a-million-dollar grand prize.
Let's head to the living room for her decision decision.
Hello, again, houseguests.
Hi, julie.
Julie: j.c., Tyler, in just a few moments, kaycee will
Cast the final eviction vote of the summer.
But before she does, you each have one last chance to plead
Your case.
J.c., You're up first.
All right, kaycee.
Well you know how much I love you.
I really appreciate what you did right there.
That actually means a lot to me.
You not blindsiding me and stuff.
But now let's talk real game here.
You know that I have as much dirt as you do, and when you go
Out there, it's going to be mostly you winning, but we won't
Go there.
I know you have a top two with tyler.
I love him.
But if you go with him, you're really good competitors.
Angela is out there, doesn't know what is going on here,
Probably campaigning for him.
You are a little more risky with him.
I'm being completely honest telling you right now.
I love you no matter what.
Just do the right thing, girl.
That's it.
Julie: thank you, j.c.
Tyler, you're up.
All right.
To both you guys, I have nothing but positive things and love
Every single day.
I know, j.c., You're feeling a little heartbroken right now,
And I'm heartbroken, too, but day one, kaycee and i, coast to
Coast, came together, we made this thing.
And we made it.
All it takes is for you to finalize it, kaycee.
I'm so proud of you turning it on the second half of this game
And literally winning every single thing.
Julie: thank you, tyler.
Thank you.
Julie: thank you, both.
Kaycee, you are now guaranteed at least second place and the
$, Prize that goes with it.
But you have a big decision to make.
By deciding whom to evict, you are also deciding who will stay
And sit next to you when the jury casts their votes for the
Winner of "big brother."
Let's be clear-- this is a half-a-million-dollar decision.
Are you ready to make it?
Yes.
Julie: then please stand, go to the head of the living
Room.
Okay.
Julie: and cast the last eviction vote of the summer.
Okay.
So this is a crappy position to be in.
And you guys know I love both you guys so, so much.
And, j.c., You've been a huge team player, and I can't imagine
Being in top three with anybody else.
J.c., I love you so much.
You're an amazing human being.
And I'm sorry, but I have to evict you from this house.
Julie: it's official, j.c.
You are the last person to be evicted from the "big brother"
House.
I'm sorry.
Love you, j.c.
Bye, guys!
I love you.
Let's go!
Get that cheer.
<Span tts:fontstyle="italic"> [ cheers and applause ]
We made it, kaycee!
We made it!
We did it!
Kaycee, we did it!
I love you so much, dude.
We made it, we made it.
Julie: so close.
Hello, j.c.
So close.
So close.
Julie: what just happened back there?
Can you explain it?
Yes.
Well, I came here to play this game, and I know how to lie a
Lot and stuff.
I'm like let me play this really dirty game, and I went there.
I was loyal all the time.
And that's actually what screwed me, if I can say that.
[ Laughter ] and then, like, yeah, I was just
Loyal, loyal.
Defending tyler.
He was my number one.
No one touch tyler!
No one touch him!
And I don't know, with kaycee, and then...
Julie: in your opinion, without telling us who you're
Going to vote for, did kaycee just make a
Half-a-million-dollar mistake by taking tyler instead of you, in
Your opinion?
I don't know.
Let me calm a little bit down because I drank too much coffee.
[ Laughter ] and then I'll decide.
Julie: all right.
You are the final member of this jury, and in just moments, you
Will all be out here casting your votes for who you think
Should win.
Loyalty or everything?
That's for sure.
Julie: stay right there.
Thank you!
Julie: thank you.
Up next, the final two are revealed to the jury.
And the jury gets to interrogate them before casting their vote
For the winner of "big brother ."
Plus, you've been voting all week for america's favorite
Houseguest.
I'll announce the winner of that $, prize a little later on.
Stay with us.
[ Applause ] cae!
[ Cheers and applause ] julie: welcome back to the
Season finale of "big brother."
The fate of the final two now rests in the hands of the jury.
Please welcome back: bayleigh.

Fessy.
Scottie.
Haleigh.
Brett.
Sam.
And angela.
[ Cheers and applause ] julie: welcome back,
Everyone.
As you can see, there are only eight of you out here right now.
That's because it was only moments ago that the ninth and
Final member of the jury was evicted.
Who do you think it is?
I'm going to start with you, haleigh.
I'm going to go with j.c.
Julie: brett?
J.c. For sure.
Julie: let's see if you guys are right.
Juror number nine.
Come on out.
[ Cheers and applause ] you guys are so great!
Julie: obviously, you guys are right, but let me tell you
How j.c. Got evicted.
Just moments ago, kaycee became the final h.o.h. Of the summer.
Obviously, she chose to evict j.c. And take tyler with her to
The final two.
Wow.
Julie: now, jurors, in just a few moments, each of you
Will lock in your votes for the person you think deserves to
Win, either tyler or kaycee.
But before you do, you will have one last chance to question the
Final two.
You have been asked as a group to come up with three questions
For each finalist.
Have you all agreed on these questions?
Yeah.
Yes.
Yes.
Julie: then let's get started.
Tyler, kaycee, I am here with the jury.
And in just a-- you look beautiful!
Julie: yes, they can see you all.
You look amazing!
Julie: kaycee and tyler, in just a few moments, the jury
Will be voting for the person they want to see win "big
Brother."
But before they do, they have some questions for the two of
You.
Haleigh is going to get us started.
Be nice!
Be nice, now.
Okay, my question is for tyler.
Oh, baby.
Tyler, aside from winning competitions, what were the
Biggest strategic moves you made to get you to the final two?
Okay.
All right, so, I made some pretty big moves right off the
Bat.
I knew coming in here, winning competitions, I was going to
Have to have a following of people that were going to want
To take me to the end and that felt comfortable with me going
To the end.
I was in level .
You guys know about level .
I made a really close alliance with sam right off the bat,
Kaycee, and j.c.
I had j.c. As my shield for the other side of the house.
I can kaycee within level to keep me safe, and I had sam as
The wild card.
After that first week, I made some crazy moves, and it got me
Trending, and I won the second power app, and this is the first
Time kaycee is finding out about it.
Oh!
But I had to play two months straight without telling anybody
About this power app, and I even had to talk myself into being
Backdoored multiple times because I knew I couldn't
Possibly be backdoored because I could keep myself safe at the
Nomination ceremony or a veto meeting.
I didn't tell anybody about this power app.
Julie: okay.
Sam, you knew.
Sorry, kaycee.
Julie: brett, you're next.
Next question.
This question is for kaycee.
Your physical game was clearly strong, but aside from comp
Wins, what were the best strategic moves you specifically
Made in this game?
Great question!
So, I knew before coming into this house I had a strategy and
A plan, and it is not number one, competitions.
It was, one, my priority was my social game.
I knew my social game was going to take me very, very far.
And I was very confident in that.
So that was my main priority coming into the game.
I needed two, three weeks to genuinely create, you know,
Relationships with everyone-- as much people in the house as
Possible you know.
So it wasn't the competition.
It was mainly my social game they knew for a fact was going
To take me as far as it did.
Julie: remember, you will each be given a chance to make a
Final plea, so we need to answer these--
Quick?
Julie: yes, succinctly.
Bayleigh.
Okay, my question is for tyler.
Tyler, so many of us on the jury had a sour taste in our mouth
Because of you on our evictions.
Tell us why we shouldn't.
All right, bayleigh, first of all, I want to sincerely
Apologize to you specifically.
It's about time.
Before we had our crazy blow-up, and before I put on my
Glasses and drank my tea, I had such good relationships with
Everybody that I felt like all the people who wanted me to go
To the end with them were probably going to start feeling
Some type of way because everybody liked me.
I needed to make some sort of enemy on the jury, and,
Unfortunately, I put on my glasses, drank my tea.
I only made it about game with you, and I really never, ever
Had anything personal to attack you because I really think
You're an amazing person and I needed people to think I had an
Enemy.
Julie: thank you, tyler.
Sorry, bayleigh.
This question is for peanut.
Level was a powerful alliance in this game.
Right now, we know you won vetoes and kept nominations the
Same.
Tell us another layer of your game that we are not aware of.
Oh, great question.
So asides from winning the vetoes, just having the
Relationship with the other side of the house.
So with at other side of the house, you know, it wasn't-- the
Non-level members, it wasn't j.c. Or sam.
So just having a relationship with them, as best as possible,
Because from the beginning the house was split and divided so
Quick, and I could only do so much.
Julie: thank you.
Sam, your question.
My question is for tyler.
Tyler, why do you think you deserve to win over the person
Sitting next to you, kaycee?" All right, I think I deserve
To win "big brother" because not only did I have some very good
Relationships with everybody.
I truly love each and every one of you in a different way.
But every single week, I always knew what was going to happen.
If I didn't know exactly what was going to happen, I had a
Plan in place with somebody.
I was behind the scenes making moves.
I came in this house-- you guys saw the long hair.
You guys saw the lifeguard.
You thought I was going to walk around with brightize not
Knowing anything.
But I have been a super fan of this game so many years and
This game means so much to me -- thank you, tyler.
That's it.
Julie: scottie, last question.
You get the inverse question: why do you deserve to win over
Tyler?
Well, I feel like I deserve to win-- I've been watching this
Show since the very beginning.
No one really knew that, and I genuinely-- game aside, I wanted
To make relationships with everyone.
And game aside, I do want to make suren was good.
If they were sad, like haleigh or bayleigh, even though they
Were on the other side of the side I wanted to make sure they
Were still good because they were still human beings and I
Cared about them genuinely.
So more about competitions and the game, personally, I love
Everyone for sure.
Julie: all right, thanks, everybody.
Tyler, kaycee, I'll be back in just a few moments when you'll
Each had an opportunity to make a final statement to the jury.
When we return, tyler and kaycee have one last chance to plead
Their case, a speech that is worth a half million dollars.
Stay with us.
[ Applause ] [ cheers ]
[ Cheers and applause ] julie: welcome back to the
Live season finale of "big brother."
The jury is just moments away from casting their votes to
Determine who will win the half-a-million-dollar grand
Prize.
But before they do, let's check back in with the final two.
Kaycee, tyler, it's now time for the jury to cast their votes.
But first, you each have a chance to tell them why you
Deserve to win "big brother."
Kaycee, you're up first.
Oh, okay.
Cool.
I don't have a lot of time.
This has been a dream come true.
I've been watching this show since the very beginning.
Again, my plan before coming into the house was to use my
Social-- social game to my advantage.
And I would not be here today if it weren't for level and coast
To coast right here.
Level plus j.c.
I mean, best alliance in the game.
And I appreciate you guys so much.
This experience would not be the same without you guys.
Gosh, I forgot what I was going to say.
Uml... Uml-- at the end of the day I played a very loyal game.
I did not make any promises that I could not keep.
And I stayed true to myself and simply I was just me.
And I love you guys, and this little peanut would love your
Vote to win "big brother " because I'm totally nuts about
This game, baby.
Let's go!
Julie: thank you, kaycee.
Tyler.
Tyler, you have the floor and seconds.
All right, guys, coming into this house, I knew right away I
Was going to be a big target.
I knew I was going to be able to win competitions.
And I also knew that keeping my superfandom a secret was going
To be a key for me to making it through.
I wanted you guys to see the bright eyes.
I wanted you guys to think I was confused and not knowing what
Was going on.
Right off the bat, sammy, I gained her trust and she told me
About her power app, I knew keeping her in this house by
Doing that maybe she would use her power on me and keep me
Going.
By doing, that I got trending, got a power app on day and
That did not expire until the veto meeting when fessy got
Evicted on day .
I played this game like I didn't have tbecause I knew using it
Would cause somebody else I was close with going up on the block
Because I was preventing myself from going up on the block.
That's why, bayleigh, I told you scottie was my number one, I
Knew if I used the veto, the power, to retaliate against me,
You would put scottie up on the block.
I made big moves in this game.
Brett, I knew when you came to me and told me angela and kaycee
Were a duo, I knew kaycee and I were the real duo, and angela
And I were a little more than that.
And they were not a duo.
And, brett, backdoing you was the biggest move of the season,
And I feel like I was behind that, a big part of it.
Julie: final comment.
I love all of you no matter what.
I with respect you all.
Julie: jurors, it is time for each of you to vote for who
You think should win "big brother."
One at a time, you will step up to the voting box, and you will
Insert the key with the name of the person you think should win
Half a million dollars.
