Julie: houseguest, I need earn to gather in the living
Room right now.
Give me a houseguest.
She give me a houseguest.
Julie: I have some big news for you.
All right.
Please do not sit in the eviction chairs.
Thank you, alex.
Everyone sit on one of the two couches.
Thank you, kevin.
Kevin, have a seat on the couch.
That's all right.
All right.
All five of you are there.
Well, houseguests, eviction night has come early to the "big
Brother" house.
Tonight one of you will be evicted and sent to the jury.
I'll be back shortly to get things started.
Welcome to the surprise eviction episode of "big brother."
[Cheering and applause] announcer: previously on
"Big brother," jalex was mind sided in the double eviction.
Unfortunately, at this time I have to vote to evict jason.
Announcer: but alec still continued to trust paul.
I'm pretty sure that raven and josh voted jason out.
I still trust paul right now.
That's all I can do at this point.
Announcer: after raven flew the coop...
Julie: raven, you are evicted from the "big brother"
House.
Announcer: emotions were high for the final five.
But when paul revealed his tears were all for show, josh was left
Questioning his friendship.
This kid goes from crying where I'm thinking he's
Emotional to instantly smiling.
I fell like I just saw the devil or something.
What?
Announcer: after watching the most epic trailer in the
History of cinema.
Talk to the fist.
Announcer: the head of household was on the line.
Josh is currently in the lead with four points.
Announcer: and josh earned the superpower.
Everyone got it wrong, so, josh, you're the head of
Household.
Announcer: the meatball contemplated a big move.
I love paul, but I got to separate personal, and I got to
Play the game.
Announcer: but ultimately decided to keep his alliance
Safe.
I am not indicated you kevin and you alex.
I nominated alex and kevin this week, but I have a lot to think
About.
Listen, paul, you need to be very careful, because you might
Be sitting on the block sooner than you think.
Announcer: tonight will the power of veto save kevin or
Alex?
Plus someone is going home, because it's a surprise
Eviction, baby.
And the new head of household will be crowned.
All this right now on "big brother."
You got to stop crying.
Stop crying.
Julie: good evening.
I'm julie chen.
Welcome to "big brother."
Just moments ago the houseguests learned about tonight's surprise
Eviction.
That means one of the final five will soon be evicted and become
Jury number seven, leaving the others in place as the final
Four.
These four will battle against each other tonight in a critical
Head of household competition.
The winner will punch their ticket to finale night and be
Eligible to compete in the final and most important h.o.h.
Competition of the summer.
So who will survive the night and who will guarantee their
Spot in the final three?
We'll find out before the hour is up.
But first, alex is on the block on her own and completely in the
Dark.
This nomination ceremony is adjourned.
I nominated alex and kevin this week, but I'm also thinking
Of making a huge move and back dooring paul.
If I get to final two with him, I won't veto him, and I don't
Know if I get the final shot.
I think if alex doesn't win the pov, I will be going home,
When I win h.o.h. And I put josh up twice.
Josh nominates alex and kevin and I could not be happier
Because we need to get alex out this week, so I would have done
The same exact thing, only I don't have to get blood on my
Hands this way.
I haven't felt this betrayed in a while.
I know my spot in the game is jeopardized, and the only thing
I can do at this point is fake it.
It's time the play dirty.
I would never do that to you.
I know it's a game, but like you're my friend, dude.
Please don't say that.
Please don't say that.
You have performed every single time.
Josh I'll play in the veto...
Listen to me.
I'm playing the veto, too.
We'll have a conversation when you're ready, okay?
We have to have a conversation.
Do you trust me?
I did.
Listen, alex, I'm trying the shake you up and help you here.
I can't tell you, hey, I'm targeting somebody else also
Without exposing my game.
You have the opportunity to play in the veto -- win.
How do you not get it?
I'll give you a moment, okay?
Love you, alex.
I feel like an awful person.
Josh, come on, buddy.
I got rid of jason and she trusted me.
She's a game player, fool.
You're being duped.
Stop it.
She's going to weaken you for tomorrow so she can win that
Veto and retaliate.
I know this girl.
We're very similar personalities.
You don't think that I would hide under a rock and struck the
[Bleeped] out of you if you crossed me?
We're a family.
You're scaring me.
Okay.
I already toll you I can cry on command.
I'm crying and making him feel bad.
He wants to talk to me.
I think he wants to win veto and try the pull me off, but then
I'm worried about you.
If he pulls me off, I think he will back door you.
Alex, you're worried about me?
You got to worry about yourself, because you're the target.
We are in danger right now.
Will you promise me something?
What do you want me to promise?
I'm going to be honest, I have not made that decision.
You have a very social game.
You have been an amazing game player and you have grown and I
Love you so much.
I don't want that decision.
I to believe that if me and josh go to final two,ly probably win
Over josh, but it really disturbs me that I might choose
Between my two guys.
They have both been my ride-or die.
I'm not ready to go there yet.
Honestly I'm just heartbroken, because the whole
Time I'm like I'm going to go to final two with her, and she
Can't give me that back in return.
I feel like I just got cheated by my girlfriend.
I feel like I just got played.
At this point I don't know who do I trust.
I don't care.
No.
What?
She just said the me, did I ever tell you I can cry on
Command?
No she didn't?
She said, I'm going to cry and make josh feel bad.
She played you.
What did I tell you?
I'm not a robot.
I don't need you guys to come and this all this brain washing
That you want to do.
All I know is that I need to get in game mode and g*n for that
Veto.
Julie: coming up, it's the power of veto competition.
Kevin and alec's "big brother" lives are on the line.
Can they save themselves from the chopping block?
Find out next.
Then another "house's" dream of winning it all comes to an end.
Stay with us.
Julie: welcome back to "big brother."
It's bb comics week, but this veto competition is no laughing
Matter.
Everyone has a different agenda, and everyone is gunning to win.
Bb comics is about the release new superhero, but
The world can't wait, so it's your job as a bb superfan to get
The scoop on who they are.
Because christmas was not medically cleared, only four of
You will be competing.
Here's how the game works: hit the button to start your clock.
Then fly down the zip line to peek inside the bb comics
Studio.
Grab the matching comic books from your bin and place them on
Your computer so it exactly matches the bb comics studio
Wall.
But beware, there are decoy comics.
When you think you have all correct, hit your button.
If incorrect, a buzzer will sound, your clock will keep rub
Running, and you must figure out what is wrong.
If you fail to match the comic book collection perfectly within
Minutes, your turn will be over.
The player who matches the comic studio wall in the shortest
Amount of time will win the power of veto.
Are you ready to play bb comics?
This veto is extremely important for my game.
If I win and keep the nominations the same, I get to
Get owl alex, one of the biggest me or thes in this game, and I
Get the set myself up for a relatively easier end game.
These comic book covers have subtle differences.
For example, matt's comic have a raving facing to the left and
Raving facing to the right.
Kevin's comic has a starfish on his crown and a shelf fish on
His crown.
These comics are bizarre.
Josh the meatball is breaking down cities and dominique the
Demeanor indicator fighting off those snakes.
I'm surprised they don't have beards that look exactly like
Me.
Why is it so mean to me this time?
Potty mouth?
Does my breath stink?
It doesn't smell good, but potty mouth?
How did I not see that?
[Buzzer sounds] cowboy is on the right.
Orange.
Male, male.
That's not male, that's a monster, paul.
The hex.
What's different in what's different?
I don't get it.
Oh, wait, jessica is actually reading a book.
That's it.
[Dinging] I want to win the veto
Because I want to have the option of sending paul home this
Week or taking a shot at paul.
This might be my only chance to get him out.
What the hell?
I'm the meatball.
I don't get it.
Mark and cody are the meatball, but I'll take it.
What's the difference?
I thought I would never have to see cody again, and he's giving
Me the look.
I had enough.
I'm done with the kid.
Fa la la lunatic.
It's creepy christmas chasing me on that scooter to give me one
Of her hugs.
It's hilarious.
[Buzzer sounds] the book is open.
Elena would mess me up.
[Buzzer sounds] so I go back.
I'm looking at each one, and it just has to be mark.
[Dinging] mark!
I got to win that veto.
This is really important.
I don't want to be left on the block.
I want the control my own destiny.
So I see cameron up there, a super fan, a little skinny kid.
Came in and stripped the first night.
[Buzzer] this is k*lling me.
I can't figure out which ones are right, which ones are wrong.
I'm trying the best i.
Can I'm huffing and puffing.
[Buzzer sounds] an amateur mistake.
[Buzzer sounds] as a young kid I didn't read
Many comic books.
I was down shining shoes a at the neighborhood bar.
[Buzzer sounds] [buzzer sounds]
You got to be kidding me.
Paul and I have this secret alliance.
So I have been praying all day and all night that me or paul
Wins that veto so that both of us are safe, and I have to
Believe he'll go with me to the end of this game.
I'm not buzzing in until I get them all right and I know what
Differences are in this picture.
He's writing oly.
Come on, guys.
Enough with the weiner jokes.
Each time I go I make sure to remember three to four comics at
A time.
Cody is a scarecrow, which is totally accurate.
Now that we have all the decoys figured out, it's time to ring
My buzzer.
All right, guys, let's see how you did with bb comics.
Alex, you finished with a time of...
Wow.
:.
Whoa, hopefully I beat alex and I can win that veto.
Kevin, you're next.
.
All right, josh, let's see if you can beat alex's time of
:.
I hope I finish fastest to make a move and back door paul.
Oh, thank god :.
All right.
Let's see if paul can beat your time of :.
Paul?
You finished with a time of...
:, Which means that you win the power of veto.
Oh, why am I potty mouth.
Now that I have this veto, I get to continue with my plan to not
Use it, leave alex on the block, and get her out this week.
Why am I potty mouth?
It sucks because I did win the veto, and paul wins it
Because now he can pull me off the block and we'll both be safe
For the week.
Now I'm here to stay.
Top two, top two, top two!
Straight up that looks like you.
My plan is to back door paul.
Back to plan "a" to get alex, a beast of a competitor out this
Week.
Julie: paul has won the power of veto, so is alex in for
Yet another blindside?
Find out when we return.
Stay with us.
Julie: welcome back to "big brotherrer."
When you've gotten so used to lying and deceiving, sometimes
The truth can be the hardest part of the game.
Come with me.
I got to talk to you.
When you develop a real friendship with someone, it's
Hard the take something away from them.
But I really don't have a choice.
I'd rather be honest with her about it now than screw her over
At the very end.
I trust you, and I've made an insane connection with you
Throughout this game.
I'm going to tell you what I'm thinking.
If I use the veto and pull you off, she's pissed, she's pissed.
I lose josh, christmas and kevin as a vote.
You have jason, mark, and cody, so I think that if I use the
Veto on you, I'm pretty much throwing my game in the trash.
Really?
If I make this move, I'm securing my loss in the game.
You would win.
I have family and friends watching, and they'd look at me
And go, you made the same mistake as last year.
If I didn't take nicole to the end, I might have won.
If I make this move, I lose.
But if I don't, I think that I actually have a chance to win
This year.
Really?
There's in way they're going to keep me?
I'm sorry.
I feel like I listened to everything you said and now it's
Just like... You think it's easy for me to throw comps for you.
It's hard.
Like I'm so stupid.
I set myself up for this.
I don't want you to think that I'm selfishly [bleeped] you
Over because it's not that.
I feel like that.
I'm going to be % honest, it sucks.
You have your team, you trust them, you talk all season about
Going to the end with them, and it's like no.
I want you to know that I would still take you if I knew I was
Going to lose.
Paul can say whatever he wants, but if I was in the same
Position as him, I wouldn't screw paul, ever.
Friend.
Friendship, no.
Gumpy, yes.
I just want you to know that you're one of the coolest people
I've ever met.
Thanks.
I held your hand through this whole game.
You wouldn't be here without me and you shot me in the back.
No hugs.
I'll cry.
I need a hug.
No, no.
I'll cry.
You all right?
I actually respect and like alex, so it sucks.
I don't ever want people the feel hurt by me.
I've had the choose me over everyone this entire game,
Because I know that they wouldn't choose me over them.
There's nothing else I can do.
I can't help everyone.
I can't save everyone.
I have to trip somebody else's chances of winning for my own.
I have to trip somebody else's chances of winning for my own.
Everybody, it's time for the veto meeting.
This is the veto meeting.
Alex and kevin have been nominated for eviction, but I
Have the power to veto one of the nominations.
I want to give both nominees a chance to tell me why I should
Use the veto to save you.
Alex, you go first.
Paul, you're my last friend in the house.
, You're the only person I trust and my one chance at staying in
This house.
We all know that if you leave me on the block I'm dead in the
Water.
I know you're worried about jury votes, but I don't think any of
These people would honestly vote for me at the end.
So I'm asking you one last time to use the power of veto on me.
Thank you, alex.
Kevin, it's your time.
Paul, it's been a long summer, so I'm going to say, you
Make the decision.
Whatever you decide, I'm going to live by.
Alex, as difficult as this journey has been, this moment
Right now is probably <span tts:fontstyle="italic">the</span>most difficult, but in order for me
To have a fighting chance, I have to make this decision.
I'm sorry that I let you down this week, but I choose not to
Use the power of veto.
This veto meeting is adjourned.
I never questioned anything
Paul said.
Now when he can make a friendship move, he's not going
To.
He's worried about his own game.
He's going to make sure that I win nothing, which is not
Friendship.
Julie: up next, it's not looking good for alex, but it's
Not over yet.
Paul and christmas cast their votes when we return.
But first, one week from tonight, one houseguest will
Walk away with a half million dollars, but that's not the only
Prize we're giving away that night.
We're also handing someone a check for $,.
To vote for america's favorite houseguest, go to
Cbs.com/bbvote.

Julie: welcome back to "big brother."
Kevin or alex, who will become the seventh member of the jury?
Let's head back to the will living room to find out.
Julie: hello, houseguests.
Kevin, alex, in just a few moments powell and christmas
Will cast their votes to evict, but before they do, you each
Have one final chance to plead your case with one brief
Statement.
Kevin, you're first.
Evening, julie, how are you doing?
First I'd like the say hi to everyone back home, to my
Family.
I miss them and I love them and I think about them all the time.
To the houseguests, it's been a long summer.
It's my third straight time for being a live evifnlings I've
Been fighting as hard as I can to get here.
When you grow up in boston, you have the fight.
That's how it is.
I want to keep fighting to get through.
You guys have been great, all of you, you get to this spot.
You did fantastic.
I want the thank you and I want the keep on fighting.
Julie, thank you for a great summer, and boston, mission
Hill, keep fighting.
Julie: thank you, kevin.
Alex?
Thank you, julie.
Thank you, cbs.
I want to say hi to my family.
Mama, papa, eric, william, gwen, and travis, I love you guys.
I hope I made you gays proud.
Sorry.
I didn't think I was going to cry.
Let me collect myself.
I got this.
This has been an extremely awesome summer.
Thank you all for sharing it with me.
From the moment I set foot in the house, I have been fighting
For my safety and it led me here from friendship bracelets to the
Trapeze with you guy, it's been a struggle, and I have tried to
Play the best mental, social, and physical game.
I think that's what led me here some the best thing I can ask
You now is now and again, I want to say to holly, I'm sorry I
You now is now and again, I want to say to holly, I'm sorry I
Failed jason.
And to my mom and dad, I love you.
Julie: thank you, alex.
Time for the voting to begin.
Neither of the nominees.
Josh, as h.o.h., You will only vote in the event of a tie.
One at a time, christmas and paul will head to the diary room
And cast their vote to evict.
Christmas, please head to the diary room.
Christmas is aligned with paul and josh, so who does she want
To join them in the final four?
Hello, christmas.
Hi, julie.
I respectfully and sadly vote to evict alex.
Julie: thank you.
Paul chose not to use the veto to save alex.
What will he do with his vote.
Hello, paul.
Hi, julie.
Julie: please cast your vote to evict.
I vote to evict kevin.
Julie: thank you.
The votes are in and we have a tie.
It's now up to josh, the head of household, to cast the deciding
Vote.
Houseguests, the votes are in, and we have a tie.
One vote to evict kevin, one vote to evict alex.
Josh, as current h.o.h., You must decide which of these two
Will leave the "big brother" house.
When josh casts his vote, the evicted houseguest will have a
Few moments to say good-bye and walk out the front door.
Josh, please stand, face the two nominees and cast your vote to
Evict.
I just want to say that I love all you guy, and this has
To be one of the hardest decisions I've made in this
Game.
Alex, only god knows how much I've appreciated your
Friendship.
You've been nothing but good to me, and that's kept me strong
During this whole game.
But you are one of <span tts:fontstyle="italic">the</span>strongest if not <span tts:fontstyle="italic">the</span>strongest competitors
In this game, and I don't see myself beating you in the end,
So I'm so sorry, alex, but I vote to evict you.
Julie: it's official, alex, you are evicted from the "big
Brother" house.
I love you.
Love you, alex.
[Cheering and applause] julie: all right.
[Cheering and applause] julie: all right.
We have a lot to talk about.
All right, alex.
After paul won the veto, he told you he was not going to use it
To save you.
Yes.
Julie: as he was telling you, this what was going through
Your mind?
I'm going to k*ll him, but I'm on national television, so I
Can't.
That's what I wanted to do.
I wanted to slap the crap out of him.
Julie: right now how do you think about paul?
He played a shady game.
It was terrible because if jason was here, this is my ride or
Die.
He would have taken that b*llet for me and he would have made
Sure if he knew he was getting to get second and he didn't
Care.
I don't like weakness, but he literally... Jason, I should...
I knew something was up when paul knew he was going to get
Back doored.
I should have taken jason off the block.
Julie: you will be back here one night on finale night.
Thank you, alex.
Stay right there.
Up next, the power is back up for grabs, and the stakes could
Not be higher.
The winner of this head of household competition is
Guaranteed a spot in the final three on finale night.

To go on in this competition.
So congratulations to you, paul.
You're the new head of household.
Paul has just won a coveted spot in the final three.
As for the others, one of them will be evicted live tomorrow
Night.
More on that when we return.
Stay with us.
I can't believe it.
I can't believe it.
Way to go, buddy.
Oh, my god.
Julie: welcome back to "big brother."
Lets rejoin the houseguests.
Hello, final four.
Hola, julie.
Julie: first of all, congratulationings --
Congratulations to you, paul, for making it to the final three
And finale night for sure.
We saw you looking very emotional out there.
You still look emotional right now.
How does it feel?
Words can't explain how bizarre and insane it is to be
In this spot again for the second year in a row.
I didn't think I could do it.
Julie: well, you did.
Kevin, three times on the block.
Three times in a row, in six days.
Julie: in six days.
That's stressful.
Are you surprised, kevin, that you survived once again and that
You made it to the final four?
I'm not surprised.
It's surprising that I'm here, the age difference.
It's been really difficult.
But I'm happy I'm here with three other houseguests that
Deserve to be here.
I'm very happy.
Very excited.
Julie: all right.
Josh.
Hey, julie.
Julie: we saw a lot of tears from you this week.
Yeah.
Julie: why was this week so emotional for you?
I've grown to left everybody that was left in the house.
These are the people that were with me since day one, so
Letting go of alex was one of the hardest things.
She's been nothing but a great friend, so it's gotten down to
The point where it's just a game move, but I love her to death
And I hope we can be friends outside of this.
Julie: christmas.
Hello.
Julie: I'm going to lighten the mood a little bit.
Let's think back to bb comics.
What was your favorite bb comic character this year?
I don't know.
They were all really amazing.
I really loved the meatball one because he thinks he calls
Everybody else meatball, but really he's the meatball, but I
Love the fact they made me a lunatic.
I don't know, they were all really pretty spot on.
Julie: all right.
Well, paul, I don't foe if you liked hearing that, because
Paul, you were not happy at all with your comic become
Character.
So what character would you rather have been?
Mr. Friendship, the motormouth squared.
Gumby.
All of the above.
Drew: are you saying presidenty mouth wasn't
Accurate -- potty mouth wasn't accurate?
