25x19 - Episode 19

[bunniefuu]

- This week, the hijinks of HumiliWeek

have clashed with the most dramatic

game play of the season--

all leading to tonight's pivotal

live vote and eviction.

Welcome to "Big Brother!"

- Previously on "Big Brother,"

Cirie, Izzy, and Felicia have been running the game.

Along with help from Cirie's son, Jared,

they had alliances with nearly the entire house.

- The Professors.

- The Seven Deadly Sins.

- We should just be For Real, For Real.

- Oh.

- I love that.

- I like Legend .

- That's awesome.

- But after blindsiding Cameron and Bowie

by evicting Red--

- By a vote of to ,

Red, you are evicted from the Big Brother house.

- And the space cowboy then taking control--

- We have a new Head of Household.

Congratulations, Cameron.

- The power trio was finally up against the ropes.

- I have nominated you, Izzy, and you, Felicia.

- Thinking he was still good with Jared--

- I'm done playing.

I'm done playing games.

Jared is somebody that I think I can trust

and work with down the road.

- Cameron shared that he was circling Cirie as a backdoor.

- We're in the middle of step three.

I'll let you know when step four starts.

- I'm already jumping to conclusions.

And I'm almost sure that the rest

of his plan that he's telling me about

is definitely to nominate my mom.

And that cannot happen for me.

- With the veto games underway--

- [exhales]

- Jared buddied up to power--

[cheers and applause]

- Buddy, I really don't know how I pulled it off.

But I did it again, Mama.

Who's the legend now?

- while others walked away with punishments.

- No, dude.

Humili-verse.

- Izzy and Cameron became Piggy Pals.

- It kind of feels good.

- Cirie was up a river with Felicia.

- Paddle, Felicia. We're on our way.

- I'm paddling. I'm paddling.

- And Matt became a Duhamel-A-Maniac.

- Come meet the Duhamel-A-Maniac.

- Clueless about Jared's true loyalties,

Felicia thought he would use the veto to save her.

- I need Jared to use the veto.

Bring me down.

I need that.

- But at the veto meeting, Jared protected his mom.

- I have decided not to use the Power of Veto.

- Tonight, one of Cirie's top allies exits the game.

But will it be who she expects?

Plus, the Head of Household is on the line

in the iconic wall competition.

And the houseguests come face-to-face

with a legendary meatball.

All this right now,

live on "Big Brother!"

- Oh!

[upbeat music]

[cheers and applause]

♪ ♪

- Good evening.

I'm Julie Chen Moonves.

Welcome to "Big Brother."

It's day inside the Big Brother house,

and the Cameron revenge tour is on.

Having identified those he thinks are running the game,

he took a big swing, putting two of Cirie's closest allies

on the block in an attempt to create chaos

and weaken her hold on the house.

With Izzy and Felicia facing eviction,

Cameron has made it clear that Izzy is his main target.

But Cirie wants her to stay.

Who will get their way tonight?

We'll find out live.

But first, one thing you can be certain of

in the Big Brother game, if you juggle multiple alliances,

it's only a matter of time before the ba*ls

start to drop.

- This veto meeting is adjourned.

[tense music]

♪ ♪

I've decided not to use the veto.

The risk of my mom going up on the block

is just too dangerous.

I'm not really sure who to vote for at this point.

I really want to talk to my mom about it,

but it's been super tough because

she's been in the kayak with one of the nominees.

- I hate being against Izzy because Izzy

and Cirie were my two besties.

We had a strong pact in the house.

I need five votes to stay this week.

I think those five votes will come from

Cirie, Jared, Blue,

Meme, and I'm hoping Matt--

hoping.

Ah.

We'll sit here for an hour and then go in the back.

♪ ♪

Izzy, I love you to death.

But if it's between me and you--

- Right.

- I'm gonna be in the house.

- This is like being in one of your worst nightmares.

I got two people that I've been close with in this house

from day one.

And now both of them are on the block.

And both of them are counting on my vote.

When people ask me--

- Mm-hmm.

- I'm gonna tell them--

what do you want me to tell them my vote is?

- Just say I'm not sure yet.

I'm talking with everybody else to see what the house.

- Yeah, we haven't been able to talk yet.

I want to speak with everybody because

that's how they playing me.

- Uh-huh.

- Unless they tell me up front.

I'm really hoping that the house is leaning

towards keeping Izzy because ultimately,

that's what I need to happen.

But I just don't need the decision

to have to come from me.

Sorry, Felicia.

- I am not a quitter.

- I'd look at you funny if you weren't.

[upbeat music]

- How are you feeling? - I don't know.

Fine. Ugh.

- That's always a stupid question.

Between Felicia and Izzy,

the decision is pretty clear for me.

I've been in an alliance with Izzy alongside

Cirie and Jared since very early.

[whispering] I was thinking.

We both started on opposite sides.

So something with four people, two, two.

Intersection, Crossroads.

- I like that. - I'm down for the Crossroads.

- I think so. - Do you like that?

- I could be down for the Crossroads.

- Between Jared, Cirie, me,

Blue being brought in by Jared, Matt being brought in

by basically everybody, that's five votes.

That's enough for Izzy to stay.

Honestly, I think all the votes should be straightforward.

- Me and Cirie have been working so hard all season

to make sure that as many people

as possible in this house feel comfortable working with us.

And this is where it should pay off.

So I have the votes to stay in this house.

We've basically made an alliance with everyone

at some point.

But the only alliance that truly matters

is the one I have with Cirie and Jared.

Everyone else that we're working with

is just a means to get to the end.

I think it's gonna be like -.

[tense music]

♪ ♪

- I think, honestly, like--

- But like, things change.

And you know how much they flip back and forth.

- I don't think they do.

Like, Felicia is out.

America has been wanting to take a shot at Cirie and Izzy

for the longest time.

And now, with Izzy on the block, she has a chance.

But it's way too risky, and I have a close

working relationship with Izzy.

- They were turning on Felicia last week.

Like, Felicia is out.

I hate to be a party pooper.

But if I tell America that the votes are not there,

she has to know this is not gonna happen.

You feel OK?

- I could feel better.

I'm playing it cool right now

and try to be cautious with my words.

But obviously, Izzy is the better game player.

I don't know why people don't see that.

And she's on the block.

Why are we all so scared to take the shot?

- Nothing.

Yeah, it's all strategy between us.

Just a couple of allies.

OK.

- Ugh.

[quirky music]

- See you later. - See you later.

- All right. - Have fun.

- Felicia, Cirie--

- Hey!

- It's been hours. - Oh!

- Your kayak punishment is over.

[both cheering] - Come on, God.

Thank you, Mr. B!

Yes, sir.

Take all this [...] off.

[pensive music]

- What do you know? You know something.

- I don't know anything. - Because I know nothing.

- The consensus among the house is that Felicia needs to go.

♪ ♪

- Wait, what?

- Yeah.

- Anyone would be a dumbass not to take Izzy out.

- I know.

I feel like nobody else is seeing what I'm seeing,

in terms of, like, the house dynamics.

- There's more support on this thing than you think there is.

- Well, I hope so, but I know people are just [...] too.

- Who? - Everyone.

- Just be frank. - Jared.

[dramatic sting]

You were the target last week.

- No. - Yes.

- No. - Yes.

- Why would I have even had the opportunity to win the POV?

- Because they didn't think you would win it.

Does it make sense why nobody celebrated?

- Congratulations, Cameron.

- Hey, hey.

[laughs]

But did they have their hooks in Jared?

Or was Jared after me?

♪ ♪

- They didn't have their hooks on him.

He was part of it.

Red was told you volunteered to go up next to him.

- What the [...]?

Am I the beacon?

Am I the one person in this entire house

that everyone's after?

- You are the beacon.

♪ ♪

- Hmm.

All under advisement.

Hearing that I was the target last week

makes me see everything very differently.

When I told Jared that I wanted to use

Cirie as the replacement nominee

and he balked so hard--

- I truly, wholeheartedly believe we put Cirie

next to Izzy, Cirie is gone.

- Who do we put next to Izzy?

- Jag, bro.

- Now it makes sense.

Jared works for Cirie.

I never could understand why Red turned against me so hard.

Now I do.

Jared.

Regardless of where they stand on me,

Izzy has got to go.

- I know.

So I feel good that Cam knows all of this now.

But ultimately, he doesn't get to vote this week.

If I want to get Izzy out,

I still need to find four more votes to evict her.

- Let's have fun.

I want to have fun.

- Like, let's do this, you know?

♪ ♪

- I think we're fine this week.

- Definitely.

I want to talk to Matt because

I want to try to see

where everyone's head is at this week.

If I can't get Izzy out this week,

I want to at least be able to start

building better relationships with everyone in the house.

I don't know if you feel the same way about things.

- All I see right now is just two sides, that's it.

- Still? - Mm-hmm.

- It was a little blurry, I think.

But I mean, what two sides do you see?

Because I know, like, me, you,

Jag, Blue,

are sort of floating around.

- Yeah.

I see it as they're gonna target us.

- Mm-hmm. - So--

- That's what I see. I know--

- We have to prepare ahead of time before that happens.

I actually feel very solid with Cirie.

Do I want to work with America?

I don't know.

I don't think it would be long term.

But short term, that's probably a good idea

just in case anything happens.

- I feel like we need to stick together--

- Mm-hmm.

That's what we're doing, kind of.

- Before that happens.

I mean, I feel good with-- with Jag and Blue.

- OK, good.

- Yeah, I mean, I'm so glad somebody

used the power on them.

- I think it was Jag.

- I think it was you.

- I don't think I can trust America fully,

but I want to be on her good side

in case she wins an HOH in the future.

So I'm giving her a little piece

of information to establish some trust and stability.

It just shows my loyalty.

Like--

- You did? - Yeah.

- I'm so happy for you. - Yeah.

- I'm so happy. - Yeah.

- Congratulations.

- Thanks.

I know two other people that played.

- So I know Jag played.

He told me.

It's Cirie, isn't it?

- Yeah, I mean--

- No, I swear to you, it's not leaving this room.

Do you know Cirie played?

[quirky music]

- [chuckles] No.

- Did you know?

- No, but how do you know?

- [whispering] Matt.

She told Matt.

- Oh, wow.

OK.

Cirie not telling me she played in Path to Power

is understandable.

I didn't tell her.

But why the hell is she telling Matt?

Who the hell is Matt to Cirie?

Clearly, I'm not her number one, two, three.

Maybe I'm her four.

And the alliance we're in?

Probably BS.

I'm starting to realize that

I am not in as good a position as I thought.

I've just never felt this, like, out of the loop,

you know? - Mm-hmm.

- I'm just trying to figure it out.

I've been too complacent in this game so far.

It is time to grow up, make some big moves,

and actively improve my position.

- I just want you to know

that you can not trust Cirie and Izzy

as much as you think you, like, can.

- We have Izzy on the block.

And taking her out would be a massive move.

And it might, might improve my position.

But it's just as likely to destroy it.

Damn, we have to win the next HOH.

- Mm-hmm.

[dramatic music]

- Up next, will Cory decide to flip the vote on his allies?

Then Felicia or Izzy?

Who will leave the Big Brother house?

And later, an epic battle of endurance begins,

as the legendary wall competition returns.

Who will rise to power as the new Head of Household?

Stay with us.

the more I realize that I'm being played.

And I need other people to realize

- So have we told you about the "fake" seven or something?

That it's Matt, Jag, Blue, Jared, me, Felicia, Cirie.

They're trying to pit us against each other.

This is why we need to take this shot.

OK, clearly, I've been played.

thinking a lot about, like, can I even

Jared, I've been very sus about.

Cirie, I've been very sus about.

The fact that this all is happening

That's the missing [...] piece.

That's the missing piece.

That's the thing is they're playing everyone.

So this is extremely tough for me.

I truly do believe that Izzy is the stronger player

and more likely to actually win this game.

But I need to build some too.

I want to work with Jag.

- Yeah. - I was in that group.

No shot. - No.

Same. - They used us as tools.

- Mm-hmm. - They used us as numbers.

They knew that we were loyal.

They used that against us.

Are you down? - Yeah.

But it's just like, this is a lot of thinking right now.

It's like holy [...].

- It seems straightforward.

But nothing in this house ever is.

Hello, houseguests.

- Hi, Julie!

- It is time for the live vote and eviction.

Felicia, Izzy, in just moments,

your housemates will cast their votes to evict live.

But before they do, you each have

a final chance to sway their votes

with one brief statement.

Felicia, you're up first.

- Thanks, Julie.

This week has been long and exhausting.

And I have survived by the faith of a mustard seed.

At some point in this game, every person in here

will have to be willing to make a decision

and take the lead rather than following everybody else.

The winner of BB is gonna be the person

that has the leadership and the courage to do just that.

That's my theory, and I'm sticking to it.

this has changed my life.

I love everything about it, even the fact

that I'm fighting for my life

in this humiliating pig costume.

But I, you know, have learned

that I am my most brave and my most strong

when I am fighting for others.

And those people are the people that have chosen me,

no matter the mistakes I've made,

because they trust that I will learn and grow so that

I can continue to protect them and myself.

So if you choose to keep me in this house,

I will choose to be brave and strong for you

for the rest of this game.

And that is something that I'm proud of.

Yeah, I know you're gonna vote for the person

that you think is gonna further your game.

- Welcome back to "Big Brother."

I'm sitting here with Izzy,

who was just evicted by a vote of to .

For most of the week, you felt confident

that you had the support to stay--

- Yes, I did. - Until recently.

- Yes. - That changed.

- Last night.

- What happened?

What do you think happened? And what happened?

- Oh, Cory--Cory. That was my--

I changed what my biggest mistake was in the game.

My biggest mistake was ever thinking

that me and Cory were close

and that I could trust him, for sure.

For sure.

- So if I ask you, who do you feel most betrayed--

- I think it would be Cory. Yeah.

- What happened?

- You know, I was skeptical of Cory the whole time.

And my closest allies, Cirie and Jared, also skeptical.

But he was saying all the right things,

and he was pretty believable.

And I thought we built a strong friendship.

And maybe that clouded some of my judgment.

He was the person that I talked to the most about the game,

away from Cirie and Jared.

And that--it felt like it was important for me

to have that, given Cirie and Jared's relationship.

- Well, let's talk about Cirie and Jared--

- Absolutely.

- Because you held the key to perhaps destroying their game.

- Yes.

- And you chose to protect their secret

and take it to your BB grave.

- Yes.

- Why didn't you consider using this to save yourself?

- I mean, it feels silly sitting here now.

But I think, you know, having people in the house

that you trust, that you know

you're a solid group is invaluable in this game.

And it was too soon to really think about

whether or not I was going to blow it up.

- Do you regret that? - No, not at all.

- It looked like, at one point, your closeness to Cirie

was more important to you than this game.

Is that accurate? - Well, I mean, I think--

I truly believe that Jared and Cirie are in big trouble

right now in the house because of this eviction.

And I think that if this was reversed

and Cirie was sitting on the block,

we would have been more nervous all week,

and she would have absolutely gone home, just like me.

And I absolutely would have been next.

- Will they survive?

- [laughs] I really, really hope so.

I know Cirie is going to struggle in the house,

just emotionally.

And so I hope they can pull it out.

And I hope Jared, of course, and Cirie go really far.

But yeah, I want to see my family take it to the end.

- In the event you were the one evicted tonight--

- Yeah.

- Your housemates, former housemates,

recorded some goodbye messages.

Let's watch and listen. - Yeah. Yeah.

- Izard, on a human level, I love you so much.

On a game level, you played yourself.

I was loyal to the Seven Deadly Sins till the end.

Clearly, you weren't.

Sorry, but this is goodbye.

- Izzy, I thought that we were developing a friendship

that was built on honesty.

And after learning of some very recent developments,

I don't know if that's true.

That means you're going home this week.

I wish that I was sadder about it, but here we are.

- Izzy, I'm really sorry.

I just can't trust Jared, and I cannot trust Cirie.

I've heard too much about them to believe

the Crossroads has a real path moving forward.

I'm really sorry.

- Cheesecake, I know that you know

we didn't want this to happen.

I will see you at the family dinners.

You're a Fields now forever.

I love you. Mwah.

- Final thoughts?

- I had a great time.

I loved this.

I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Yeah, no real regrets.

- I have to tell you, it was a real pleasure watching you--

- Thank you. - Play this game, Izzy.

- Thank you, Julie. - Godspeed to you.

- Thank you.

- See my extended interview with Izzy

tomorrow on "Big Brother's" official Instagram page

Up next, the live battle of endurance begins

as we look to crown the next Head of Household.

- Welcome back to "Big Brother."

It's now time for the Head of Household competition

to begin.

Free from the threat of eviction,

the HOH must put two houseguests

on the chopping block.

Let's head to the backyard and get things started.

Hello, once again, houseguests.

- Hello, Julie. - Hi, Julie.

- Let me be the first to congratulate all of you

on surviving HumiliWeek.

Now, as sad as I know you will all be,

I can tell you that HumiliWeek is now officially over.

[cheers and applause]

Usually, this is where I would also congratulate everyone

left in the game for making it to at least the jury of nine

who would crown a winner of "Big Brother"

come finale night.

However-- - Oh!

- Given that this is our th anniversary season,

we're going old school.

We used to have a jury of seven

voting for the winner of "Big Brother."

And that is exactly what we are doing this season.

- Whoo!

- So there is still a lot of game

to be played before the jury begins.

And you're gonna have to earn it,

starting with tonight's Head of Household competition.

Cameron, as outgoing HOH,

you are not eligible to compete.

This competition was sent from the Comic-verse.

And as you can see, one of the great BB comic characters

is back.

The Meatball, a.k.a. Season winner

Josh Martinez, will be trying to knock you

off the building in this "Big Brother" classic battle

of endurance, which is why this competition is called

Attack of the Foot Meatball.

The goal is simple.

Hang on for dear life.

If you fall off, you're eliminated.

The last houseguest hanging on

will be the new Head of Household.

Does everyone understand?

- Yes. - Yes, ma'am.

- Excellent.

Then hold on tight, houseguests,

because this competition starts now.

- Get off my wall, you big meatball!

- Oh!

- Ooh.

- We'll rejoin the ongoing Head of Household competition

in just a few moments.

But first, tune in Sunday

to see who wins this all-important HOH

and to see who he or she will nominate for eviction.

And due to football overrun, for one week only,

we will air at :/: Central, o'clock Pacific.

Then on Wednesday, the Power of Veto is back up for grabs.

Who will win, and will it be used

to save one of the two nominees?

Then on Thursday, get ready for a Scary-verse

double eviction night.

You don't want to miss out, as a whole scary week

of "Big Brother" plays out in one night

with an ending that will terrify the houseguests.

And don't forget, in just moments,

it's the season premiere of "Buddy Games"

hosted by Josh Duhamel.

For now, let's eavesdrop on the ongoing HOH competition.

From outside the Big Brother house,

I'm Julie Chen Moonves.

Love one another. Good night.
