Post by bunniefuu »

-Previously on "Big Brother" --

a secret alliance of

Turner, Monte, Brittany, Michael, Joseph, Kyle and Taylor

was born. -I say it's time for the

Leftovers to take over!

-And their first order of business

was a butter bean blind side.

-By a vote of -,

Ameerah, you are evicted from the "Big Brother" house.

-Leaving the other side of the house in shambles.

-[ Sobbing ]

-I could have been given the chance to say good-bye to her,

instead I'm sitting here crying to Terrance.

-With a chance to slide into power...

-Monte! -Monte picked up a big win

for the Leftovers.

-Monte, that means you're the next head of household.

[ Cheering and applause ]

-I finally got a chance to prove that I'm a competitor again.

-Kyle and Alyssa were feverishly flirting.

-You're the sweetest girl I've ever met, so...

I just appreciate you. -Oh, my gosh!

-But with Alyssa being blindsided by the blind side --

-Why wouldn't you tell me you were [indistinct]?

-I didn't know until right before, and, I mean --

-I just consider you someone I would always fight for you

and protect you. -I know.

-It looked like their showmance would be short lived.

-You're my best friend in the house.

-[Indistinct]. -You are!

-[Sighs] That's fine.

-Indy and Alyssa seemed like the perfect targets.

-I would prefer to see Indy and Alyssa to go off.

-I could go with the easier move of nominating Alyssa

and Indy, They are outside of the Leftover's alliance.

-But Monte was eager to backdoor a bigger fish.

-I really want to target Nicole this week,

but Taylor is his festie-bestie,

which would mean Taylor would have to sit

next to her on the block. -Leaving Nicole's bestie Taylor

in a tricky situation.

-Would I like to see Nicole out of this house?

Yes, but I would prefer

to not have to touch the block again this week.

-At the nomination ceremony --

-I have nominated the besties, Indy and Alyssa.

-Monte warned of his true intentions.

-I do want to make something clear, that you are not

my targets for this week, so I'm really rooting for you guys

to win this power veto. -Tonight things get trippy

in the veto competition.

Who will win the golden power?

And will it lead to another shocking veto meeting?

Find out right now on "Big Brother"!

-We got bamboozled.

♪♪

-This nomination ceremony is adjourned.

♪♪

I've nominated Indy and Alyssa this week mainly because they're

the only festie-besties that do not include

members of the Leftover alliance.

♪♪

But as much as I think Alyssa is a threat to our game,

I think Nicole is just as dangerous.

So depending on how this veto goes,

and if Taylor agrees to it,

I still may backdoor Nicole.

So we just got to see how this cookie crumbles.

-I love you all, like, I don't need hugs right now,

I just need to make some cake.

Last week was, like, a shock for me.

I'm literally not believing anyone,

not trusting anyone.

Monte told me I was not his target,

but now I don't trust anything that anyone says.

So, you know what, I'm going to fight for my safety.

Sorry, I don't like people feeling sorry for me.

-I like it. -Feel sorry for me.

Being on the block, it really, really, really sucks.

Monte, a former member of my alliance, is the one

who put me on the block.

I don't know who to trust,

Kyle betrayed my trust last week,

so, at this point, this veto is so important.

-Not the target -- but they don't think the target

is who actually is the target, they all think I'm the target!

-Oh, my God! -I'm really okay with seeing

Indy and Alyssa on the memory wall.

It shows that Monte is a man of his word and he's committed to

the Leftovers and my safety.

But I do know that he's looking at Nicole as

the backdoor target, as much as I want Nicole out of this house,

that means that I would have to go up on the block again.

I've paid my dues, this would be my third time on the block.

I'm kind of over it.

-You all right? -I'm not on the block,

but I don't feel safe in this house.

Ever since Ameerah's blindside,

the only person I can trust in this house is Daniel.

I will quite possibly be the back door plan.

I'm scared.

-Let's make some cake.

-You did great. -Thanks, man.

You think I covered the bases I needed to on the speech?

-Yeah, yeah, %. You put a, like,

"I'm trying to backdoor someone" seed out there.

-Yeah, yeah, %.

And I already talked to Taylor about it beforehand.

-How is she feeling about all that?

-She feels fine.

I think we got to really massage that relationship with her

very, very, like, gently,

but if we let her, you know, sort of drift off into

her own thoughts, I think she gets paranoid.

-You're definitely right about building a trust relationship

with her, she's, like, not being used,

she's part of the team.

-I really think Nicole should be priority...

because she can compete compared to Alyssa.

-Taylor has been through so much in this house.

And as much as we need to prioritize evicting Nicole,

if that's going to require Taylor to sit on the block

for one more week, and she's not comfortable with that,

it's not worth it.

We're still trying to build trust with Taylor.

And we don't just need her as a number in the alliance,

we care about her as a person as well.

-Of course for the comp tomorrow, I would love for

to, um... -Catch that veto.

-Catch that veto.

♪♪

♪♪

-I know, it's hard to trust.

-Yeah.

-We need to take the opportunity to take the reins.

-We need to win competitions.

-Yes. -Especially, like, this group.

I -- I like this group a lot.

-I feel good with the Leftovers...

♪♪

But anything "Big Brother" fan knows that you need to have

a sub alliance within your larger alliance,

so once you get down to just the alliance,

you have a plan moving forward for how to win the game.

Brittany and Taylor are the people I want to bring

to the end with me because I trust them the most out of

anybody in the game, and I don't want to bring people to the end

who are going to be perceived as bigger threats than I was.

It's my ideal final three. -Me, too.

-Hundred percent. -They're all capable of it.

-Yeah. Well. -I'm excited.

-We'll see what tomorrow brings.

-I feel good about a final three with Michael and Taylor.

I feel like they would both take me to final two,

no matter who has the choice in the end,

so sounds pretty good to me.

♪♪

-It's my final three.

♪♪

-Welcome to my humble abode. -Oh, perfect.

-What's happening, brother? -What is good?

-In Monte's nomination speech, he says Indy and Alyssa are not

the targets, so, I go upstairs to talk to Monte

and make sure I know where his head really is at.

-My biggest thing that I'm trying to understand from

everybody is who is the main target for this week.

I think we've had conversations on

who that person is for both of us, being Taylor.

I think I'm fine with that, too. -Yeah.

-It doesn't matter, I just feel like

this is the cat that has nine lives and, you know,

we got to figure something out to get her out of here

at some point, so... -I mean,

that is number one for me.

It does affect my game mentally and all of us.

But because she's been like my main thought and distraction,

that's all I care about.

You know, and if things change, keep me in the know, dude,

I'm down to, like, support it. It don't matter to me.

-Okay. Damn, Daniel.

I'm not sure if you're in full support of what we have in store

this week, because if things go according to plan,

we're gonna be back-dooring your close ally, Nicole.

Also, Indy and Alyssa,

I want them to feel as reassured as possible.

-And then, of course, if they win or whatever,

the back door option. -Right, right.

-Monte is is telling me

that the plan is to backdoor Taylor.

But after what happened with Ameerah, I can't help but think

if my final two, Nicole is sitting on that block,

he might do the same this week and I can't let that happen.

I have love for that, dude, like,

I think it also ballsy in a good way,

and I have a lot of respect for that.

♪♪

-Kinda sucks, just any nomination, like...

I don't know.

It's rough. -Yeah.

I would like my bestie to go, but I don't want to put myself

in the line of fire, so... -Yeah, that's what's tough.

-"I'm going to do this to make sure Taylor goes home."

-What type of sweet revenge would that be

if Daniel was the cause of his best friend

going home this week.

Look, I definitely do not want to go on the block again,

but if that's the case, this would be the one time

where I could really be excited about it.

If he gets to betray his best friend,

it would feel so sweet to me!

I honestly want that to happen now.

But it just comes down to luck of the draw.

-Totally luck. Oh, my gosh.

Wow, wow, wow. -Wowie, wowza.

♪♪

-I feel bad, I really do.

And it sucks, like, why did I have to come in

and catch feelings for someone?

Like, why can't -- it'd just be easier --

No one else is having this issue.

No one else likes anybody in here.

-Yeah but... it's boring for them.

-It's boring for us! You have no idea the amount

of self-control it takes for me to just sit here and not like --

[ Boing ]

Argh! -Not like what?

-So, I was coming in here, "Do you want to read the Bible?

Let talk about that." -Like, what, Kyle?

-Stop.

I'm a weak, weak man.

-I love Kyle.

He's like my homie in this game.

But there's a few patches that we're working through.

He lied to my face, so my emotions are kind of everywhere.

But it really hard to stay mad at Kyle.

He looks at me with those big blue puppy dog eyes,

and I'm like, it's okay, nothing matters.

I just hope that, do you think if Monte won,

he would take us off though?

-I think so, I mean -- -Do you really think so though?

-I'm not sure where I stand with Alyssa.

I need to think about it.

Okay... She's outside of the Leftovers alliance,

she has a situation-ship outside of the game.

And then I'm like...

aww, she's so great, dude,

and she so freakin' attractive.

Oh, my gosh!

-It is how it is, and I just want to focus on

being here, not leaving. -Yeah.

Yeah.

♪♪

-Yeah. -Because after the end of

last week...

-Yeah.

-I'm really hoping I get picked for this veto

because I want to g*n for it, win the thing and not use it.

I don't trust anyone in this house but Nicole,

and I need to do what I need to do to protect my final two.

♪♪

-Hey, everyone, it's time to pick players

for the veto competition!

[ Cheering and applause ]

♪♪

Only three sets of festie-besties will participate

in the veto competition.

The head of household and their besties,

the nominated besties,

and one set of besties selected by random draw.

Will my besties and the nominees please join me up here.

♪♪

Remember, if the golden power of veto is used,

both nominated besties come down and a new set of besties

will take their place on the chopping block.

The set of besties who win the veto

are safe for the week, but it only takes one of them

to decide to removes the nominees from the choppin block.

I, as head of household, will pull one chip out of the box

to determine the other set of besties competing.

So, we have Nicole in our sights but we don't want her to have

the chance to secure her own safety by playing in this veto.

So the best case scenario is that Kyle and Daniel get picked

because I know that Kyle would want to use the power of veto

to take Alyssa down from the block.

So as long as Taylor is cool with it,

we can go through with our plan and say bye-bye

to her festie-not-so-bestie.

Daniel and Kyle. [ Cheering and applause ]

♪♪

-Big Brother will inform us when the competition

is to begin -- good luck.

-Yeah. Yeah, I know.

-So everyone in our alliance is paired with festie-besties

that are outside of the Leftovers.

That's great for them because if they ever find themselves on

the block, we'll be able to keep them no matter what.

But Michael and I don't have that same insulation,

meaning if we are put up on the block,

one of us will have to go home.

-Brittany's right, the best option for her and I this week

is for noms to stay the same so that we can vote out Alyssa

and hopefully convince Indy to join our festie-bestie pair

so that Brittany and I can stay in the game.

-I'm a the final three with these two.

They've always had my back and I fully plan on being

at the end with them, so if this is what they need

to keep them safe, I'm willing to wait for my revenge

to come another day.

♪♪

-Should we game plan? -I want it, like --

-Yeah, I do, too. -Obviously if you get it,

I feel safe -- well, I am safe!

-Yeah, yeah, if you get it, we're -- I mean,

I'm going for it. -I'm not sure what Kyle

would want do if we do win the power of veto.

But I assume he'd want to use it to save Alyssa

since she's on the block.

But I don't want him knowing just yet that I want to

keep the noms the same, but no matter what,

the first thing we got to do is go out there and win this veto.

I'm done, like, second-guessing everything.

-I just want to be safe guaranteed.

Daniel's my festie-bestie, but I don't really want to talk to him

about what I wanna do with the veto,

because I'm nervous that he's gonna realize

that the plan to backdoor Taylor is actually the plan

to backdoor Nicole.

So let's just focus on winning this thing and we'll cross

that bridge when we get to it. -I'm stoked.

-This is ideal, so let's just win,

get safety for both of us, and then go from there.

-Yeah.

♪♪

-Let's go!

Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo! Oh, yeah!

Whoo!

-As a guy who used to live in a van,

it's probably not a surprise that this competition

looks right up my alley.

Just give me a black light poster, a big ol' bean bag

and I will be right at home.

It's time to watch my fellow houseguests sample some

psychedelic slop.

-Houseguests, I hope everyone is having a blast at B.B. Fest.

But it's time to take things to the next level.

I hope you're ready to go on a mind-altering slop trip.

Here's how it works.

In each set of festie-besties,

one bestie will keep a clear mind.

The other besties in their squad will eat a spoonful

of psychedelic slop

and go on the trip of a lifetime.

The slop trippers will be transported into

a psychedelic world that is totally far out.

When they return to reality,

they'll have seconds to tell their festie-bestie

everything that they can remember about

their mind altering journey.

The trippers will then leave their clear-minded bestie alone

and they must answer multiple choice questions

using only the information their besties told them.

The player with the most points after five questions will win

the golden power of veto for them and their bestie team.

Who's ready to play "Trippy Watch Party"?

[ Cheering and applause ]

♪♪

Each festie-bestie team has already chosen

who will go on a psychedelic slop trip

and who will give the answers.

So, take your places.

-So, Alyssa isn't in the Leftovers alliance with me.

But I still have a strong connection with her,

I friggin' love the girl.

So, I need to win this veto so that I can ensure

Alyssa's safety, and backdoor Nicole.

-Supposedly there's a plan to backdoor Taylor,

but I can't risk having Nicole sit beside her on the block.

The only way the Rogue Rages to stay alive to fight another day

is that Kyle and I win this power veto

and we keep the noms the same.

-Trippers, it's time to take a bite of psychedelic slop

and go on your magical journey.

♪♪

-The slop is making everything seem a little bit spacey.

I'm feeling a little dizzy.

I'm honestly not sure where I'm at at this point.

♪♪

Oh, my gosh, this is awesome.

It's really hard to focus on anything because there's

so many crazy things popping up.

I'm trying to remember the best I can because when I come down

from this trip, I hope it doesn't result in

me being evicted on Thursday.

[ Elephant trumpets ]

I can't tell if those elephants are red or pink.

[ Elephant trumpets ]

And it looks like that puffy cloud is turning the elephants

into green pigs.

The universe has spoken.

[ Pigs grunting ]

These daisies are smiling at me,

but secretly I think they're plotting against me.

-Man, this is crazy!

Luckily, as a performer, I have a great short-term memory

an attention to detail,

so I think I'm gonna be a-okay.

Man, I already feel like have I no privacy in this house!

All these eyes are blinking at me and changing colors.

It's freaky, man!

I bet having tentacles would feel weird.

Wow, look at those veto medallions flying in the air!

That's what I like to see!

-Two heads are better than one.

-Since there's two of us, we can divide and conquer.

-Whoa, look at those veto medallions in the sky!

Oh, no, they're melting into the pond!

-That duck better be careful,

that tentacle monster is going to get it!

[ Bleating ]

-Hey, that sun is spinning around

with its tongue out.

I wonder if it's thirsty.

-Shhh, Joseph, I'm trying to concentrate.

-Man, there is just so much to see!

I'm definitely going to miss this place.

[ Whooshing, crickets ]

-Welcome back to reality, trippers.

You now have seconds to tell your bestie

everything you saw.

-Okay, it's a green valley with a rainbow river.

There's a sun that arrives with eight rays.

-And then there was a sun that had a face,

and it was a straight face with a tongue.

-It had a face and it had a tongue out.

- mushrooms. - mushrooms.

-Over mushrooms.

-Six pink elephants. -Seven orange pigs.

-I guess the psychedelic slop works wonders,

because Daniel is making absolutely zero sense.

He must have tripped harder than Jasmine in that HOH com.

[ Sucks teeth ]

-Aah!

-Six of them come in, they leave as green pigs.

I'm using hand motions to help paint the picture

to try and remember every detail.

I'm feeling like a psychedelic Bob Ross out there.

-There was five sunflowers that were, like, trippy.

-There were six vetoes that melted.

I'm trying to think what else was on there.

-There were five power of vetoes, all same color.

Looks like the veto. -There was, in the beginning,

how the video started, it starts just with a rainbow river.

-So, you would think having two people relaying all this

information would be more helpful, but these guys sound

like they're still tripping and I don't understand how

I'm supposed to remember any of this.

-There were five eyes.

They were green, brown and blue.

-And there were elephants. The elephants went through

the "crowd," turned into pigs.

-There was four sunflowers.

-The elephants came. Everybody he said.

[ Cuckoo chirps, gong reverberates ]

-I just hope that I remember whatever the hell

Joseph and Terrance told me so I can get this power of veto

for the Leftovers.

-Obviously it would be great

if Kyle won this veto and took Indy and I off the block,

but after last week, I can't depend on him.

So we have to show that we want to be in this house

and win this thing.

-It's time to find out how much you learned.

Please step up to your podiums.

Question one, what color were the elephants?

A, Green; B, pink; C, gray?

-I know how to answer the first question because Alyssa

told me the color of the elephants.

They are pink. So my answer is B.

-The correct answer is B, pink.

Kyle and Indy, you both get a point.

[ Elephant trumpets ]

Kyle and Indy, you both get a point.

Please reset.

-I thought psychedelics were supposed to expand your mind,

but I think Terrance and Joseph may have spaced out.

-Question two, what did the elephant turn into?

A, pigs; B, birds; C, sheep?

-I definitely remember Daniel telling me that

the elephants turned into pigs, so I'm confident with A.

-The correct answer is A.

[ Pigs squealing and grunting ]

Everyone gets a point.

-Here we go. We're for .

I'm feeling the momentum.

We got to keep it going and bring home the win.

-Question , how many daisies with faces were there?

A, ; B, ; or C, ?

-I didn't even know there were daisies,

and I definitely didn't know that they had faces!

So, uh, I am a little worried about this one.

♪♪

The correct answer is B.

♪♪

Kyle, you get a point.

-Guessing and guessing, getting all the answers right,

I don't know, maybe I was on that trip, too.

But, I mean, not like I know anything about that or anything.

-At this point it's not about, like,

what I can remember or not, it's just, like,

I never got that information.

I don't want to be mean about it

but at the same time we really need this veto,

so I'm getting really frustrated.

-Indy has two point, Kyle has three, Monte has one.

-So we are doing terribly.

I mean, none of these questions have anything to do with what

Joseph and Terrance talked to me about.

It is just a complete disaster.

-Poor man, he's literally giving us

that look like, "What?" What the? What the?

-The eyebrow --

-Question four, which blinking eye color

appeared more than once?

A, red; B Green; or C, blue?

-I'm only one point behind Kyle

and the pressure is really on right now,

because I am the one who is on the block.

-The correct answer is C.

Kyle and Indy, you get a point.

With the score of Kyle , Monte and Indy ,

it all comes down to this last question.

If Kyle doesn't answer this next question correctly

and Indy does, she will tie it up

and will head into our tie-breaker question.

-This is the last question -- fingers crossed that

Indy gets this one right, we can tie it up

and take home that veto. Come on, Indy!

You can do it!

-Kyle is one question away.

We're so close to winning this power of veto,

I'm losing my mind.

-Question five, what was the sun doing

with its mouth?

A, sticking out its tongue;

B, blowing a kiss;

C, smiling with teeth showing?

-Alyssa told me that the sun was sticking his tongue

out of his mouth, so I know this answer is correct.

♪♪

-The correct answer is...

A, sticking out its tongue.

With a score of five, Kyle and Daniel,

you have won the golden power of veto!

[ Cheering and applause ]

-Let's go!

-Congrats, brother. -Thank you.

[ Excited chatter ]

-Our first veto! Come on! -Come get your prize!

-Oh, my God! -Congrats.

Congratulations.

Nice job. -Thank you so much, man.

-Aah! We got it!

Safety, baby! -Feels nice!

[ Indistinct chatter ]

-Just throwing up letters.

But I'm clear on my mind it was not my fault,

I did my best, I memorized everything that Alyssa told me,

I'm not blaming her, but I'm super disappointed.

-Indy and I unfortunately did not win the veto this week,

however, Kyle and Daniel won the veto,

and Kyle better use that veto on me or I'm going to come for him.

-Joseph, Terrance and I weren't able to get the win this week,

but at least Kyle secured the veto for the Leftover alliance.

I'm really hoping that Taylor's good with the whole plan

to put her and Nicole up on the block

so that we can take a shot at Nicole this week.

-Let's go! Yes!

Veto, baby!

We win this power of veto

and I'm ecstatic -- I get to take Alyssa off the block,

and Daniel doesn't know it but his festie-bestie is going to

send his real life bestie out the door.

-Finally a veto!

-Oh, man! Look, I'm so stoked that we

won the power veto, but it's starting to dawn on me

that Kyle is going to want to save Alyssa;

it only takes one person in the festie-besties

to change the nominations, but what he doesn't know is that

I don't want to use the power of veto

'cause I want to keep Nicole off the block.

Huh.

Oh, my gosh.

♪♪

[ Knocking at door ] -Hey.

-So, are you going to use the veto on me?

-Listen, I don't know, it depends on how you ac--

No, I'm just ki-- That's mean. Yeah.

We're definitely gonna use it, so...

-Are you? -I promise!

I promise. -Okay. He has to!

He has to use the veto!

If Kyle doesn't take me off this block,

that would really show me that

I didn't know him at all. Like, are you kidding me?

I would look like the stupidest person in the world.

-Just kind of go with the flow.

-Yeah.

♪♪

-There's just one thing I want us to make sure that we discuss,

and, like, if we, say, not something to worry about,

that's fine. The ideal outcome for me

this week is that Alyssa goes

home and Indy joins me and Brittany

in our festie-bestie group.

Now that Kyle and Daniel have the veto,

I want to convince the rest of the Leftovers

that leaving nominations the same

is the best move for all of us.

-If we factor in Nicole this week...

-Is the scenario where two of us end up non-insulated?

-We're the only non-insulated group.

But we can keep things the same

sending Alyssa home.

-This is actually a good conversation --

if we were to, um, evict Alyssa

and then have a strong inclination that Indy would join

you two, all bases are covered,

and then next week, no matter what happens,

we would be protected. -We're chill.

It would be a short-term pain for a long-term gain.

-If we can protect everyone in the alliance,

obviously I'd prefer that -- my revenge can wait.

My revenge will come. -Yeah, and it will.

So, I definitely wanted to get Nicole out this week,

but I'm starting to think that the best path forward

is to keep Indy and Alyssa on the block.

Let's be honest, America, I'm trying to keep these Leftovers

fresh all summer. Well, see, here's the thing.

'Cause now we got to somehow convince Kyle

not to use the veto.

[ Knocking ]

-Come on in.

Oh, thank God.

-What's up? -We were hoping we could get

you up here, man. We got some urgent, urgent--

-Oh, gosh. -Talk about.

-What up? -So Michael brings up

this idea, say if Alyssa and Indy stay up on the block--

-Stay on the block. -And, you know, Alyssa gets

voted out, if Indy stays, she would be a person outside of

our alliance who would now insulate Michael and Brittany.

-Oh, dude, that's going to be tough, though, with Alyssa.

Dude, this is a tough decision for me,

just on a moral basis.

-It's your moral compass

versus Michael and Brittany's safety.

If we can potentially save them, I think it's worth the shot.

Because if, God forbid, these two are up,

they're getting back-doored, we're gonna look back at it

and be like, imagine if we didn't take this?

-This is our weak spot in the Leftovers.

This right here.

-[ Sighs ]

Everyone is just coming at me, coming at me saying,

"You should like not use it."

On one hand I risk losing Alyssa that I have feelings for,

but on the other hand I risk losing the trust of

the Leftovers alliance -- there's no good option here.

-Decision is ultimately yours. We have this one week.

How can we set ourselves up for success long term?

-I just haven't thought this through.

So...

Yeah, I don't know.

I just have to think about it, think it through.

-Morning, man.

Let's have a chat, man.

-Cool. -I just want to make sure that

we're on the same page about things.

-Cool. -So last night,

the Leftover alliance came up with a new plan

to not use the power veto and keep the nominations

the same; I'm hoping that Kyle is onboard.

But if Daniel decides he wants to use it,

there's nothing that Kyle can do to stop him.

So I need to convince Daniel and Nicole

that it's in their best interest to decide

to not use the power of veto this week.

Daniel, the power is in your hands.

I feel like you're pretty close with Kyle,

so you might be able to talk to him about, you know,

any changes that you guys might be thinking of

based on what I'm saying.

I don't want my week to be a surprise week

where I'm thinking everybody's going to vote a certain way

and then it turns out to be the exact opposite.

Now, if I put you and Taylor on the block,

now I'm feeling less confident about where the votes lie.

I just don't want to look like a fool putting up you and Taylor

and then Taylor yet again is still here.

-Mm-hmm. I mean, obviously,

you have a clearer read on people than I do,

which I am kind of just shocked in a way.

So, cool, like, I guess I see where that's going

and, you know, thanks for the heads up.

Blah, blah, blah. Like shut up, Monte.

I've been trained to know when somebody is lying to me,

and right now you're dropping a load of crap

that I'm simply not going to pick up.

I have the numbers to stay. Taylor will be going home.

God, he's such a horrible liar. I can't..

It's so funny.

I'm in shock a little bit so --

-I have not trusted Monte ever since he lied to me

about the Ameerah vote.

It sounded like Monte is fully aware that he doesn't have

the votes to get rid of Nicole this week,

as I've been suspecting that he's been trying to do.

I think he actually wants to protect Taylor.

Well, guess what, I'm not going to let you weasel out of the bed

you've made -- if you don't want me to use this veto,

I'm % going to use it.

-All love, brother. -I appreciate it.

-Thank you, Monte, so much. I appreciate you.

♪♪

-Can I talk with you real fast?

-Yeah.

-Bro! -What?

-You got to trust me on this. -What?

-He's trying to keep the noms the same now.

-Really? But why?

-It's, like, laughable to me because he's realizing if

this changes today, he doesn't have the numbers moving forward

as the big game. -Yeah.

-It's like, bro, you want to keep Taylor all of a sudden?

Is it because she's been working with you?

He's like, "Yo, I'm trying to protect you guys."

Since when?

-SO, you and Nicole both are like, "This is..."

-Acting. Like, I respect the game play that he's doing,

but I think -- and hopefully am one step ahead.

-Yep.

I mean, either way I want to be on the same page,

'cause, again, if one of us uses it, we're both usin' it.

Are we usin' it %? -Dude, I have to.

-Yeah. I have to play dumb with Daniel.

He's about to help me take down my showmance Alyssa,

so I don't have worry about her on the block,

and unfortunately for him,

he's about to make one of the dumbest moves

in "Big Brother" history and help his backdoor

his best friend Nicole.

-You think, with Nicole, I don't want to use it,

but I definitely wanna use it, because it just makes sense.

This whole week, this whole three weeks whatever has been,

like, I don't understand how she's still here.

She's like a cat with nine lives.

-Oh, God.

-Thank goodness for Daniel.

See you, Nicole!

Send her a*s packing!

[ Clicks tongue ] Sorry.

-Hey, guys. It's time for the veto meeting.

♪♪

-This is the veto meeting.

Indy and Alyssa have been nominated for eviction.

-But we have the power to remove the festie-besties

from the chopping block.

We have decided...

to use the power of veto on Indy and Alyssa.

♪♪

♪♪

-Monte, since we just vetoed your nominations for eviction,

you will have to name a new set of festie-besties

as replacement nominees.

♪♪

-Nicole and Taylor.

♪♪

As I said to the whole house, Alyssa and Indy

were never my targets.

I feel like this is the best decision for my game

and I hope that you guys make the best decisions

for your game come eviction night.

♪♪

-This veto meeting is adjourned.

♪♪

-Since it only takes one of us to want to use the veto

and Daniel was going to whether I wanted to or not,

I actually get the best of both worlds in this situation.

I look good to Alyssa because saved her and I technically

didn't go after what the Leftover alliance wanted.

Now, operation Backdoor Nicole can proceed as planned.

-So, I'm confused.

And, frankly, a little disappointed.

We had a chance for every festie-bestie pair

in the Leftovers to have some sort of insulation,

and now Michael and I are not protected going into next week,

and, frankly, leaves the entire alliance vulnerable.

-We agreed as an alliance that I would be safe

and Indy and Alyssa would stay on the block.

What happened?

I don't know how I feel.

Nicole sitting next to me on the block means that I consider her

on the way out the door, but another part of my is

questioning whether or not I can actually trust the Leftovers.

But it is really hard to do that

when you are thrown out in the line of fire again.

So I'm not pleased right now.

-It's so funny! It's hilarious.

I mean, I don't know if anyone's ever this excited to be

on the block, but Monte, I saw what you were doing.

It's obvious that you were trying to make some huge

game move to save your newfound friend, Taylor,

but I think you're going to be disappointed

come eviction night.

Unh! Just k*lling it! We're k*lling it today!

So amazing.

-Will another blind side send Nicole packing?

Find out tomorrow night at :, : Central,

live on "Big Brother"!
