previously on Big Brother the house guests graduated from their
clicks and began a battle of endurance and one by one they failed the test
until only Jeff and Russell remained so now what man we're gonna be here all night or what I don't know I think we
want the same person we really love running out here yeah exhausted and at the breaking point they
made a deal it's important that I'm safe you are safe and so is Jordan
with a newfound respect for each other an alliance was formed I wanted to talk
to you about partnering up I was thinking the same thing I don't think anyone split system
trying to ensure her safety Lydia went to work on Russell Jesse and Natalie
they say that you constantly lie to them but he quickly spilled the beans I just found out Jesse wants to take me out so
do you and so do you that's what that [ __ ] said yeah entering former allies against each other that pisses me off is
when people lie but that's part of her but notice how how it didn't even come out until your HOH that's what Lydia
does she switches every week to whoever has power that's who's uh butt she kisses unsure of where he stood with
Russell Ronnie tried to strike a deal my allegiance always has been and always will be to you Jesse Natalie and Shima
and our team that's who my allegiance is to at the nomination ceremony Russell kept
his word to Jeff I've decided to nominate Lydia and Ronnie for eviction who will win
Nito and will it be will it be Ronnie or Lydia from eviction it all happens now on Big Brother
cowgirl
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
I've decided to nominate Lydia and Ronnie for eviction Ronnie you've lied
to every single person in this game and you've been a snake well if you're gonna catch a snake you got to be a mongoose
and I'm that mongoose his nomination ceremony is adjourned
[Music] decided put Ronnie on the Block I wanted to uh really see where everyone's
loyalties lie who they were going to side with uh Mia Ronnie and go from
there Russell definitely wants me out of the house this week but I do have allies
I've risen from worst scenario than this before so who knows what the future
holds Russell held up his end at a bargain and saved me and Jordan at this point I'm
telling Jordan let's just lay low this week I used to be in an alliance
Alliance but now Russell has nominated me I'm on the Block and I have no idea
where I stand at the moment
[Music] I really hope I Stay
I feel we can change everything yeah well if I win POV I'll pull you off
don't you feel a little bit better oh against Ronnie I'm gonna actually go
against you don't feel good [Music]
I can convince Russell to keep me I will be staying this week
come in if I have to cry in order to get some success right now I have no shame when
it comes to that what's going on Ron absolutely no hard feelings regarding
that on every level I absolutely do realize I I shouldn't
have gone in there and talked to Lydia I understand how that could be a slap in your face
you don't tell me I know what you're talking about and I don't know Ronnie maybe you're a mastermind you have some
secret deal with him no I have never gone against you I have
never done anything to even try and damage your game in this house I never would do anything to go against you I
want to stay in this house I want us all to keep the team together and I want us to get Lydia and Kevin those stupid
floaters out of this house so I don't know if there's something we can work out I will do anything to stay in this
house if that means you want me to put up specific people for the team I will do that
well he definitely made some good points and um let me sit and marinate on it absolutely I have absolutely zero
sympathy for Ronnie I know he's acting at this point and it's fake he can't even fake cry he's not selling me on
anything he does Ronnie has made his bed and now he can lie in it and I'll be more than happy to put the tombstone on
his grave appreciate it man
[Music]
in the doorbell gonna walk in your room I don't know what kind of privileges I
have you made your bed [Music]
Russell was definitely a tough guy very you know masculine and he's hot I'm
sorry my TV's not working I can't put on the newest movie we can't watch TV it
sucks so what's going on fill me in on what on
uh everything now nothing I love you settled what do you think I think Lydia
should go home I'm gonna do what you want really yeah okay I hope so I'm
gonna do what you want I just want to express that I want Lydia to go home
running on first I have no problem first I can uh pretty much figure who's
gonna vote where Jeff Jordan Uh Kevin and uh Michelle are going to vote to the
victim why do you hate him
it's been a repeated occurring thing do I think I can actually trust him no can
I trust you yeah I trust you more than I trust him this is your week and now do what you want oh thank you
[Music]
why do you think she's safe good I don't like her I know she's
trying to break you and I up I guess we just gotta wait till tomorrow with the POV
I think Ronnie is a stand-up guy I think he has my best interest in mind compared
to Lydia she's not really trying to win anything Ronnie's more of an asset due to he owes me a couple more solids than
uh than Lydia does Miss Lydia Lydia is the [ __ ] that needs to leave the plan
is to vote Lydia out right Russell and I discussed it the hell we did she's not going I want
Ronnie to go first tunnel vision
personal no I'm not I have no personal attention to it at all like if she were to win HOH next week she would
definitely backdoor you I have no problem with it and then what she say she said no she said let me explain something hold on let me explain
something real quick Lydia and Ronnie both want me out I understand this I have no problem with this Ronnie right
now has done me wrong several times he's gonna say what he needs to say to appease to you and then go and talk to
someone else yes you have an attachment because he did take you out he was a deciding vote I respect that I
understand that myself Shima and Jesse I as much as we want Ronnie to stay and
we're trying to do everything we can to keep him here we do have to do it on the DL because if not um it'll be our butts
on the Block I've given him a chance I reached out to him I came up to him when no one else was out here and he still
did it again he went against us he told them everything he talked about every one of you how he can get you guys out
I'm just done with you I just can't keep pushing you along and expect that you're not gonna burn me every single time
right no I understand Jesse and Natalie are definitely scared they are at the bottom of the pecking order and they're
starting to feel a lot of pressure I know exactly what's going on there's absolutely no reason to keep Ronnie
[Music]
it all comes down to what happens tomorrow in the POV yeah but the restaurant's falling out
do you want to respects the decision and take Ronnie out or do we do what's better for us in the game Russell's not
going to budge as far as keeping Ronnie so we're gonna have to try through Michelle and see if she could vote to
keep him here this is the thing about Lydia who is in power that's that's who she is
aligned with she she does weekly alliances you know I'm saying she switches every week and she throws everybody under the bus
foreign [Music]
so far I've been laying low in the house this week I have to calculate really
where my safety lies because the house is completely split down the middle with me standing there at the at the line
[Music] Again Play yeah sure
oh my God I played you so what are your feelings
it's definitely gonna have to be after the POV yeah so yeah the the position I
felt like I was in right now was just like how am I the decided vote and I'm like I feel like you definitely are if
we were gonna do something we'd obviously need to have you on board no I know I'm gonna make enemies this
week but it's Gotta happen it's too much work being friends with
everyone Michelle is a floater nobody knows where the floater's head is it's really going to come down to whether or
not Ronnie has a friend in Michelle and if not then it's not looking good for the poor chap
[Music] hey everybody it's time to pick players
for the veto competition [Music]
only six people will participate in the veto competition they had a household the two nominees and three other players
selected by random draw will the nominees please come join me up here
worst case scenario would be Kevin Jordan Jeff none of the three of them
would use the veto to save me the player I would like to see come out of the bag for the veto competition is Kevin
because he's my like sugar bear and he will totally protect me and take me off the block
[Music] Michelle
thank you Russell so figures the one person who we don't want picked is Michelle because she is a floater in
this game and we don't know where she stands so if she were to win I have no idea what she would do
not Jesse [Music]
Kevin I also have to choose a host for the
veto competition and I choose Shima
oh my goodness when I walked out into the
yard I saw a bunch of different little areas statues feathers arrows oh Shima
did you see your chariot it's got circus that's so cool that dude's real no yeah
yeah wow can I touch a kiss come on this guy's lived up with baby
oil this ain't even fair great warriors of ancient Rome you now have five minutes to look over the items

what do you know rats great um's officially beginning T-minus
countdown until the first Ronnie's a rat joke
oh important for me to win this veto competition because I can ensure my safety and take Lydia off the block as
well best case scenario was me winning so I could save myself second best case
scenario definitely was Jesse winning because Jesse would use it on me for sure the worst case scenario would
be Kevin winning and taking Lydia down and then one of my closest friends in this house will be put on the Block
opposite me object of the game is to earn three
points to earn a point you must win around for each round the Great and
Mighty Big Brother kiss will ask you a question about one of the items each answer is always an amount
you will write down what you think is the correct amount then everyone will reveal what they wrote down
after you've seen what everyone has written down you'll have two options stay or fold if you fold you cannot earn
a point for that round but you're still in the game and may continue when the next question is asked
if you're confident in your answer then choose to stay and battle it out for the point
if your answer is closest to the actual amount you will earn the point but if
you stay and your answer is furthest from the actual amount you will be eliminated from the competition the
first player to earn three points will win the power of veto let's start counting here is what five

confident does everyone feel with their answers it is time to lock in your decision to stay or fold michellis what
have you decided to do fold lydius I've decided to fold Rusty kiss fold it's
basically a poker game without cards I decided to fold because I want to see how people are playing if they're

have known that Michelle was bluffing I second guessed myself I'm a gambler and I know how to play my
cards right Ronnie likes to go around the house proclaiming he's smart but I'm
the one with the PHD so I think you're a lot dumber than me run a kiss if you decided to stay you

[Music] after winning the power of veto for the
second time in a row now I have more power than the HOH because I control not
only the veto but I'm the swing bow I have all the power this week everybody
says that they will vote out Ronnie which I hope stays true I hope Ronnie does not get into people's heads even
though I did not win The veto I definitely have a chance and a heartbeat
in this house because everyone has a price and over the next couple days I'm going to find out exactly what
Michelle's price is for using the veto on me [Music]
you did freaking awesome I'm proud of you thank you you won the
second veto this is weird you earned it great job Michelle
awesome congratulations
that's good so whether you decide not to use it or not you're safe and even if you did decide to use it on one of those
you can't go up so best of all worlds I hold the fate of the two nominees in
my hands it's very awesome to know that I have the power to save or send Ronnie
home and Michelle I'm not I'm not above baking I mean what I don't
know what I can do but I swear I've been nothing but honest with you since all
this so see all that I ask is if you really do trust
me Jesse Natalie and Shima and you want to be part of the pie that I know you would use only me we'll talk
[Music] we should hang out
[Music] hand yeah
let's go how did this just happen everybody just went inside I don't know
I think Michelle is very shady in this game I think she's playing all sides so
for Michelle and Russell to be talking it makes you wonder hey what what's really going on here thank you
I mean you're in a similar boat like I don't have a like a personal friend in this place where like Kevin and Lydia
are a team yeah Jeff and Jordan her team Natalie and Jesse your team I don't have anyone as my team I have to win to stay
here I think you're in the same thing exactly in the same boat I want to be on your team
I thought she has the power of veto it's very important to figure out what Michelle's thinking and get on her side
and uh see if I can use this relationship down the road but definitely if you're down
I don't think anyone would know I think it'll be a scary tandem k*ller
I've done this like like they're always together they're always going you're so sad they're like
[Music] come in
let me know if you guys want to play chess or anything we're just gonna be chilling out here yeah [Applause] [Music]
there's like they'll come in like just like keep tabs on me to see like what I'm doing and I'm like and you guys are
like threatened like he's super threat because he's not as smart as me you know what I mean
I got out of the bathroom first are you going in the bathroom in there a lot of dogs they're gonna talk regardless you
know okay that's how I see it [Music] oh she might not be saying anything
but she's she's not winning she's skating by on me and Jesse
[Music] it's us not going upstairs could be a
downfall for us I think we should go up all I'm saying is we're there or not they've already
talked [Music] as long as you trust me now that's all that matters to me I mean I did trust
you I was never gonna put you out of the house I wasn't going to nominate you no just trust me as far as what I'm saying
like what I've said before and like how I stood up no you're a stand-up guy
Michelle is starting to trust me she believes in me I think she is smart she
is an intelligent player but I do have to make sure that Michelle does not use the veto so I will be keeping a very
close eye on her he's not that interesting nor is she
when it comes to Michelle nobody exactly knows what this girl is thinking seeing
them in that room for so long together kind of made me wonder I'm actually worried about the fact that they could
use the power of veto in scheiss Jesse week four foreign
[Music]
[Music]
compassionately and very politely stating to Michelle the obvious benefits
of me staying now it was time to be a little more forceful I know you don't want me in the house
let me just say this Kevin and Lydia
oh no allegiance to anyone but Jesse Natalie and Shima
I'm a hundred percent with them so if I leave this house
who do you think they will blame for my eviction I know I know and then the cheese stands alone
I hope you see because you're very smart strategically actually significantly weakens you foreign
logically about this game you will be evicted if I leave that door and you will not make it to the final
two
schemers
that says catchphrase on schemers gamers I thought I was gonna get a shirt that
said Steamers on it I'm doing schemers and technotronics oh you and technotronics are best friends do you
have a video best friends me and Lydia no she's actually she's your girlfriend
I'm best well actually no it's not Lydia it's Michelle I'm sorry [Music] she should be a comedian you should give
up your day job conversation with Michelle last night
getting to know her [Music] what was that I said Son in Russell yeah
that's what I thought I repeat myself I either I said the first time no you're just a little bit scared to say that's
all right I'm scared damn right you are yeah right we wish you guys love each
other yeah more mustard
shima's gotten very jealous she didn't like it when Lydia was talking to me she didn't like it when Michelle would talk
to me she'd become that possessive girlfriend that I've always dreaded
and then your best friend Michelle you're funny she's gonna be a day job
she's like [Music] just starting to wear my last night
it's her little comments on the night
I should just put her a*s upstairs
[Music]
[Music]
in her mouth
I want to go back downstairs oh oh Kitty what's going on
seriously nothing it's really nothing he said something about you commented on
like him being best friends with Jeff now and then as Michelle too and he told
me that just now you know like don't tell you something about Lydia and then I said no that's Michelle Michelle's
your new girlfriend now something like that oh okay me and the ghost funny yeah here like me saying that it's the truth
ha ha ha funny that's why he said what he said I don't know why he's taking it to heart like old boy is like I don't
understand understand what no understand like why he's getting so much grief I'm
just like come from me yeah why wouldn't you just talk to me then I know I know I don't know
[Music] funny Russell's trying to trying I'm jealous
it doesn't matter what is what I'm saying but like this can turn into something
[Music]
[Music] Russell's getting upset about um the Michelle thing yeah the comments that I
made honestly Shima here's the thing about I would not be shocked if he's convinced Michelle to use the
veto on Lydia and he puts you Jesse or Natalie up opposite me
Michelle will regret putting me out because she's touched she's stupid
[Applause] she has a bunch of book smart she has no common sense it's Russell and Michelle
it's like the one two TKO man right
not anywhere near as smart as they think so yeah he's not
they didn't tell me specifically but he makes you know he's paranoid right he
has no more power after tomorrow
it's just like Get over yourself
so hard and everything you guys were saying I don't care well you don't because you're going home but she's not
he he always thinks he heard something you know what the thing is the reason
why I I am not coming out there is because I will go off on him and it will turn into a scene because I think it's
that I can't talk to Ronnie about anything without him thinking we're scheming and the only reason why he
thinks we're scheming is because he's a paranoid who keeps lying to people
good job it's not see what I'm saying now he just knows we know do you
understand so just like this exactly I'm sorry man we tried I swear to God no I
don't know but what I'm saying is what I'm saying is you don't go down with him and you already know that the French
to write the attention somewhere else
I thought away with him right now you have no idea
and I was like okay they want to go and confront him but I know that's not good right before no
Ronnie and sheba have a very close relationship that's the case it pretty much lets me know that she was not on my
side so there's no point keeping her here
now you can get involved in the Big Brother game it's time for America's

ER of the power of veto I really am in a position to change up the game a lot of
people have been courting my votes trying to get on my good side it's a tricky balance trying to make strategic
moves but I think I can do it I do know that Michelle Heard my arguments as to
why she should use the veto on me but who knows what deals she has what irons she has in the fire so I don't feel safe
at all I am 100 worried when it comes to
Michelle nobody exactly knows what this girl is thinking I'm definitely a little
DeVito ceremony only because Russell and I haven't been getting along and Russell
is puppeting Michelle so you could very much get into Michelle's head and make her use it and then he puts me up
hey everyone it's time for the beetle meeting
[Music]
Ronnie and Lydia have been nominated for eviction this week but I have the power to save one of you
I'm going to give each of you a chance to tell me why I should use the power veto to save you from the nomination
block Ronnie and give you the chance to live first
I mean speak Michelle you won the power veto fair and square I definitely would not ask for
you to use it on me nor would I expect it to but I respect your decision either way Michelle you already know what I'm gonna
say I don't expect to use the veto on me you're rad you rock I enjoy hanging out with you so do whatever you want
[Music] well thank you both I thought a lot about this
and with that I've decided to use the power of veto on
[Applause] no one
this veto meeting is now adjourned
right now the line has been drawn in the sand I'm standing on one side and I'm there with my teammates and you know
hopefully I'm on the winning team and I'm ready to get this fight started the lines have definitely been drawn now
and I do consider Michelle a new Ally I feel like I have a
given mystery power I definitely am not a quitter I do not give up
um even when I'm beaten I'm a fighter so I definitely have a few more moves that this house has not seen yet and
hopefully I'll get a chance to play them who will be evicted from the Big Brother house Lydia or Ronnie who will become
the new head of household and who has America chosen to receive the power of coup d'etat find out live Thursday at 8
7 Central on Big Brother
