- After days, competitions,

and evictions, it all comes down to this.

Bowie Jane, Matt, or Jag? Who will be crowned the winner

of this milestone anniversary season and take home

the $, grand prize? Welcome to the live two-hour

finale of "Big Brother." [cheers and applause]

- Previously on "Big Brother,"

days ago, Jag and Matt became fast friends.

- I got you. I got you since day one.

- And after Jag was evicted by a unanimous vote--

- By a vote of to zero, Jag, you are evicted

from the Big Brother house. - --Matt used a secret

superpower to save his game. - Welcome back, I guess.

[laughter] This was the perfect week

to use the superpower and make a big move.

- Now bonded for BB life, they formed a final two--

- --and together, dominated the game--

- [silently] Let's go. - --taking out ally

after ally after ally. [tense music]

With only five left, Jag and Matt solidified

a final three with Bowie. - Mafia.

- And the Mafia took out hits on the Mamas.

- Cirie, you are evicted from the Big Brother house.

- I vote to evict you, Mama Fe. - Now, with only

three remaining-- - Let's go!

Whoo! [cheers and applause]

- --Bowie, Jag, and Matt go to battle in the three-part final

Head of Household competition. Who will emerge

victorious and earn the power to cast the last

eviction vote of "BB" ? Plus, the jury returns

to choose the winner of the $, grand prize,

and we reveal who you voted as

America's favorite houseguest. Then tonight,

a huge announcement unleashes a new game just

in time for the holidays. All this right now, live,

on the two-hour season finale of "Big Brother"!

- Here we go! To the Mafia!

- To the Mafia! [upbeat music]

[cheers and applause] - Good evening.

I'm Julie Chen Moonves. Welcome to the live season

finale of "Big Brother." It's day --

that's right, day -- inside the Big Brother

house, and tonight, either Bowie Jane,

Matt, or Jag will be crowned the winner of

the final three-part Head of Household competition.

That person will not only guarantee themselves a spot

in the final two; they will choose

who they want to sit next to when

the jury comes together live to vote

for the winner of "Big Brother."

So who will reign as the final Head of Household?

Who will be the final houseguest evicted?

And who will finally walk out of the house / of

a million dollars richer? Everything will be

answered live tonight. But first, when last we

left, the final three were stuck in the middle

of the BB multiverse, hanging on in order to

win part one of the most important HOH of the season.

[tense music] ♪

- Mama Fe wouldn't have liked this one.

- I have won a lot of competitions this season.

But we're at the very end now,

and this final three HOH is the most important of all of them.

I am the first Sikh houseguest on "Big Brother,"

and everything I've done is for my family

and for my Sikh community. And to be crowned the first

Sikh winner of "Big Brother" would mean the world to me.

And it all starts with winning this first HOH.

I have to win this. ♪

- All these different BB universes

are attacking me at once. It's not cool.

I'm sitting on a thought bubble from the Comic-verse.

I'm being thrown into a haunted house,

obviously from the Scary-verse. I'm being dipped in egg yolk

from the Scramble-verse. - Ha-ha.

- Mm-hmm. - Dude, your leg.

- [laughs] - [spits]

And I'm being covered in hair from the Humili-verse.

Is this real human hair? Di-sgusting.

It's in my mouth. - I don't want to

be the person that gets dragged to the final two.

I want to be the person that decides

who goes to the final two and sits next to me at finale.

So I've got to make sure to guarantee that I'm

there is by winning the HOH. I'm gonna fight this out

till my body drops dead. - I have a final

two with Jag, but it is very important

that I win this part of the HOH competition.

If I win the final HOH, that means I would have the most

HOH wins in this season. That's gonna look

really good to the jury. And if I can take Jag

to the final with me, I may just be able to steal

some of those jury votes. ♪

- Oh, my god, this is so hard. But the worst part,

by far, is the ice-cold rain that's getting dumped on us.

♪ - My strategy is

to keep my muscles as relaxed as possible,

but the freezing rain is making me tense up.

It's really hard. My body is tired.

My arms are shaking uncontrollably.

But I want to prove that I can beat the boys,

so I'm not letting go. ♪

- I'm in a lot of pain right now,

and now Big Brother tells us we have to move from the disk

to the bubble. So now I've got to

hold on even tighter, and that's gonna be super hard.

♪ - I keep hoping

♪ - I keep hoping

this rain will stop. I'm shivering uncontrollably.

I don't know how much longer I can hold on.

♪ [buzzer blares]

I am so disappointed. I just couldn't

hold on any longer. I just hope Jag can

pull out a win here. - Good job, Bowie.

Bowie falls, and I'm just happy that someone is falling

because we've been holding on for so long,

and I just want it to end. No matter what,

I want to be the one who wins this competition.

- It's super crazy because it's me

and Jag, my other Minuteman. And we've talked about

making it to the final three since the beginning

of the game. And now look at us.

Here we are, battling it out on part one to win HOH.

This is super exciting and awesome at the same time.

We're just talking. We're just chilling.

Got a bro date. - That's cute.

♪ Hey, Matt?

- I feel like I have hypothermia.

My leg is cramping up. I don't know how much longer

I can hold on to this. And I know Matt is solid.

The last thing I want is for Matt to think that I'm trying

to beat him specifically. I don't want him getting

suspicious at all. We're so close

to the final two, and I need him to

continue to trust me. - Part of me is prepared to

go all night if I have to, but I'm tired of hurting

and being in pain. I'm done.

Screw it, let's just do rock paper scissors.

The rules of rock paper scissors are simple.

Rock beats scissors and-- come on,

who doesn't know the rules of rock paper scissors?

Having the trust and goofiness that Matt and I have

to let this come down to a game of rock paper

scissors kind of sums up our relationship.

♪ [buzzer blares]

- Oh! - Let's go, baby.

Rock smashes scissors. Matt smashes Jag.

Coming into this game, I was so scared.

I wanted to come into this house

and represent my community really well and show them

what a deaf person can do. Now here I am.

I just got myself one step closer

to winning this whole thing. - Congratulations, Matt.

Jag and myself will face off in part two

to see who will battle Matt in part three

live on finale night. - Good Job, buddy.

Oh. I'm super happy for Matt

that he won this competition. This just puts

a lot of pressure on me going into part two.

I have won competitions under pressure before.

I just have to make sure I don't blow this one.

- I'm proud of Matt for winning,

but I am in a final two with Jag.

So I was hoping that he or I would win this comp.

Looks like we're gonna have to face each other now.

♪ - Up next, "Big Brother"

legend Dr. Will Kirby is back with the

jury as they debate the merits of the final three.

And later, all the houseguests will reunite live,

and all of the season's secrets will be revealed.

Stay with us. [cheers and applause]

[upbeat music] ♪

[rock music]

♪ - Welcome back to the season

finale of "Big Brother." Soon, Bowie Jane

and Jag will face off in part two of the final

HOH competition of the season. But ultimately,

the winner of "Big Brother" will be chosen by the jury.

Recently, they gathered to clear the air

and voice their opinions of the final three.

- My name is Dr. Will. I'm a former "Big Brother"

winner. I'm a former "Big Brother"

jury member, and I'm super

excited to be here hosting the jury roundtable for

the th anniversary season. Tonight we're gonna

discuss the final three. We're gonna debate the

game that each played, and we're gonna determine

why each of them might deserve to

win "Big Brother." But we can't debate the

final three until we know who the final three are.

So would you all like to meet juror number six?

[together] Yes.

- Let's do this. - Oh, my god.

- FeFe! - It's me.

- Oh, man. - Well, well, well.

- Well, well, well. - Welcome.

- You got some 'splainin' to do.

- [laughs] You guys all thought it was gonna be me.

- No, I thought it was Matt. - It should have been Matt.

Jag made a $, mistake. - Ooh.

- Watch and see. - Talk to us about

what happened. Why are you here?

- Bowie Jane won the last HOH. - Wow.

- And Jag won the last Veto. - Of course.

- Of course. - And Bowie Jane

put up me and Matt. - Mm-hmm.

- So that was Matt's first time hitting the block.

- Mm-hmm. - Jag thought that in the end,

if I ended up in that position where I could pick,

I would bring Bowie Jane. And I told him, absolutely not.

But he didn't believe me. - You know,

we've all underestimated her. - She was never

on the block, not once. - Which is stupid to me.

- Bowie Jane was never a threat because Bowie Jane never

had an opinion about anything. - Why is she still there?

- She was never in real danger. She-- I never heard any mention

of her possibly going up. - Always.

She was always-- Bowie Jane was always

the other option. - When?

- Any time we talked about who was going on the block,

we could always put up Bowie Jane because there

was always a bigger target. - I hear what y'all are saying.

She's a floater, and that's a strategy.

I think it's worked in her favor.

- Bowie Jane made herself an amazing ally to myself,

to Matt and Jag, and she was someone who I think

a lot of people in the house, maybe not all of us,

but we could rely on. - So let's say Bowie

Jane wins this last HOH. That means she

will have won four HOHs, including the

single most important HOH of the entire season.

If that's not impressive, I don't know what is.

- Bowie Jane, she made a pretty solid decision in going along

with evicting me, honestly. - Even if it wasn't

her full decision, it was still under her HOH to

get Cameron out of the house. - And I'm pretty positive that

Bowie Jane is a lot sharper behind those eyes

than we actually are giving her credit for.

- Bowie Jane was never in control

of any decisions being made. - Period.

- She followed the decisions that were made,

and that's the difference in her game and Matt and Jag's.

- For me, it's about who had the most

control over the game. Matt, the entire game,

did a good job of making us all like him.

He's a great liar. But was he ever

really in control? Was Bowie in control?

- No. - Was Jag in control?

- Yes. - Jag was a big target

the first couple of weeks, and then he bounced back.

In the end, we all trusted Jag. - I think Jag manipulated a

lot of people in this game. That's a testament to Jag's

social prowess and the effects that he has on these players in

the game and the manipulation that he has.

- Jag, for the first days, had a rough go of it.

In the next , he had an easier path,

and he capitalized on that easy path.

- He just shifted focus. - I want to give him credit.

I just don't want to act like he's

this flawless, manipulating player because I

don't think he was that. - No one said flawless.

- He did win seven Vetoes. - But I think he

also realized-- - That's the most ever.

- That's why everybody was chasing Cameron, though.

Cameron and Jag were the true competitors.

- Now you just said something. You just said something because

Cameron showed his ability in the comps very early on, and

Cameron's social game sucked. Just to keep it .

- It's true. - And Jag's social

game wasn't that great. So why wasn't Jag targeted

the same way that Cameron was? - Cam won HOHs,

which result to him having more blood

on his hand, where Jag just had to

save himself. After he got evicted and then

he was able to come back-- - Evicted unanimously.

- Mm-hmm. - Every single one

of us voted to evict Jag, and he is in the house

because Matt won Path to Power and saved him.

- I think a lot of people would look at that as

though someone's already been evicted,

therefore they shouldn't be the winner of "Big Brother."

I completely disagree. The fact that he left,

came back in, and he's got an opportunity

to win this entire game on the back of all of the

people that voted him out, and that makes him look like

an incredible competitor. - There's so many factors.

You know, competitions play a big role, a social game.

- Who had a better social game, Jag or Matt?

[together] Matt.

- Matt has this superpower where

he's able to lower his threat level despite being

a '" model Olympian. - [laughs]

- He should be a threat. I should look at that guy and

say, we got to get rid of him immediately.

- Right. - Never crossed my mind.

- You would leave a conversation with Matt

feeling really good. Matt was so good

at just coming to me and telling me exactly what

he knew I wanted to hear. Jag would never

tell me any of this. I think Matt played

a more manipulative game than Jag did while

making all of us feel more comfortable with it.

- No matter what he said, you-- you never

suspected that Matt was lying. That was his social game.

- Matt came into a game where conversations matter not being

able to hear conversations. There's nothing but

whispers in this game, and he overcame that.

On that basis alone, I would have to give

it to Matt for those reasons. - What was Matt's worst move?

- I think Matt's worst move is not

owning up to any of his game. "I wanted to use

the Veto on you, America, but I just couldn't."

- He's not owning any of the-- any of the moves that

he actually was a part of. So I think that that's

gonna be his biggest flaw in his entire game.

- I think there's a lot of us who are gonna ask Matt,

do you own this move? How did you play?

What was your biggest move? - Ooh, that's a good question.

both take me to final two. But at this point,

I can't take any chances. I need to win this so I

can control my own fate and play in part three

of the final Head of Household competition.

[bell dings] Prior to every competition

this season, we were told what universe every comp came from.

To win this competition, I have to put

the competition tiles in the correct universe

and in chronological order. BB Comics I know

is Comic-verse. I have been preparing for

this type of competition all season.

I know every competition name, what day it was, who won.

The one thing that I didn't prepare for

is which universe the competition came from.

So I'm gonna have to figure this out on the fly, literally.

My strategy for this competition

is to grab tiles as fast as I can

and put them in the universe I think they belong in.

For a lot of the comps, I actually do remember

which universe they came from. But some of them,

I have no idea. So I'm just trying to match

the names to which universe they sound like they

would belong in. The Scary-verse competitions

should be pretty obvious. Revenge of

the Pressure Cooker? That's definitely Scary-verse.

- You guys come here often? - [laughs]

♪ - I feel great about

the Scary-verse and the Humili-verse.

And I buzz in. [buzzer blares]

And I'm wrong. That's not right.

The hardest part is that there are so many combinations

to what I could have. [buzzer blares]

If I switch something out and then I buzz in and I'm wrong,

does that mean the switch that I made was wrong

or something else is wrong? [buzzer blaring]

What is wrong? What am I doing?

[buzzer blaring] What is wrong?

Could that be anything else? No.

OTEV could be there. [buzzer blares]

What am I messing up? I keep hitting my

buzzer over and over, and the only thing

I can keep thinking is time is just adding up.

And I am fumbling the bag big time.

I've been here for years. [buzzer blares]

What is wrong? What am I doing?

I am so lost right now. Not only am I questioning

which universe they go in-- Well, what else can be wrong?

--I'm questioning the foundations of reality itself.

[buzzer blares] Dude, what is wrong?

And it's melting my brain. Sweaty Scrimmage

and the Humili-Gram. Those are all Humili-verse.

I'm looking at the Humili-verse.

I look at Sweaty Scrimmage. There's huge feet.

They're spraying out sweat. That feels like a very, very

humiliating competition. But then it hits me.

It could be Scramble-verse because instead of football,

it's foot, space, ball. That's the whole point

of the Scramble-verse. So I know I need

to switch this out. And I know Embarrassing

Expeditions actually does belong in the Humili-verse.

It's in the name, embarrassing. [bell dings]

That was a terrible, terrible performance.

And it stings more because we're

so close to the very end. And I feel like this is me

making it to the Super Bowl and then absolutely choking.

And now I'm just praying for, like, a miracle to happen.

- All right. I've been in here

for nearly days. It's been a real struggle.

I've totally been underestimated.

And I want to prove that I deserve to be here

and that I can win. I already lost the first comp.

This is my last chance to take things into my own control

There you are. Let's get that one.

where they came from, and I'm gonna

Thank you. - I'm super excited.

Jag won part two. I won part one.

I promised him final two, and he's promised me final two.

gets dragged to it. - It was hard.

I'm really disappointed that I didn't win this,

[cheers and applause]

- Welcome back to the season finale of "Big Brother."

Just minutes ago, Jag became the final Head

of Household of the season. Now he must choose to evict

either Matt or Bowie Jane, automatically ensuring

the remaining houseguest a spot in the final two.

Let's head to the living room for his decision.

Matt, Bowie Jane, in just a few moments,

Jag will cast his vote to evict.

But before he does, you each have one last chance

to plead your case. Matt, you're up first.

- Julie, you look lovely, as always.

- Thank you. - Jag, my boy, Jagdeshua.

I love you, bro. We've come a long way.

to , we've had each other's back.

We protected each other. Let's keep it rolling.

Let's keep clocking in those hours.

- Thank you, Matt. Bowie Jane?

- Jag and Matt, it's been an absolute honor

to be in this game with you. It's really made the last half

of the season amazing for me. I've just made such good

buddies in here, my besties. And, Jag, I would absolutely

love to be in the final two. It's game time.

We've taken each other as far as we can.

So if you can take me to the final two,

I think that would be amazing for your game.

There's a lot of money on the line,

so do whatever's best for you, and I love you either way.

- Thank you, Bowie Jane. Thank you, both.

Jag, you are now guaranteed at least

second place and the $, prize that goes with it.

But you have a big decision to make.

By deciding whom to evict,

you're also deciding who will stay and sit next to you

when the jury votes for the winner of "Big Brother."

This could be a $, decision.

Are you ready to make it? - Yes, I am.

- Then please stand, go to the head of the living room,

and cast your vote to evict. - OK.

Bowie Jane, we've gotten really close

over the past couple of weeks, and you've

made two promises to me. First, that if you were the

final Head of Household, you would choose me

to sit next to you, regardless of if I made

that decision or not. And the second is

that you would vote for me if you sat in jury.

I told you one thing in return, and that

is that I would love to sit next to you in the final two,

and that still remains true. Matt, in week four,

my back was against the wall. I was questioning

everything, and I truly prayed

with everything in my soul for an answer.

You answered those prayers. You were-- you did not turn

my back on-- you didn't turn your back on me then, and

it would feel wrong if I turned my back on you now.

Ultimately, I have to do what I think is right

and make the decision that I hope my family will be proud

of, a decision that I hope my Sikh community will be

proud of, and the decision I hope, Bowie Jane,

you're proud of as well. If I sit next to

Matt and I lose -, the one thing that I

pray is that that one vote is from you, Bowie Jane.

I have to take Matt to the final two,

and I have to vote to evict you, Bowie Jane.

- No problem. - It's official.

Bowie Jane, you're the last person to be evicted

from the "Big Brother" house. - Well done, Matt.

Ah! - I love you, buddy.

- Love you. - I love you so much.

- We all love you. - I really do hope

you're proud of me. Oh.

Thank you for everything. - It was a big decision.

- Thank you for everything. I had to do the right thing.

- I understand. - Thank you.

Thank you. - I understand.

- Thank you. Love you.

- Mafia! Let's go.

- Mafia for life. I love all of you guys.

- The Mafia wins, guys. Good luck.

- Love you, Bowie. - I guess I go

out this door now? - You go out that door.

- Open that door wide open. - Open that door wide!

Open that door wide! - Bye!

I love you so much. I'll see you soon.

- Love you. [cheers and applause]

- So exciting! Hey, guys!

- Our siblings are right behind them.

Oh, bro, that's crazy. Bro.

- Great speech, dude. Great speech.

- I love you, man. - You're a great HOH dude, man.

- Bro, I told you I got you till the end.

- I know. I know. - I told you.

You're gonna win this whole thing, man.

- Let's do this. - You're gonna win

this whole thing. - Oh, boy.

- Bowie Jane, did he make the right decision?

How do you feel? - I am proud of him.

He is an amazing human. And we had this discussion

going from four to three, and I said to him, "You need to

think about what's gonna make you feel good after the show."

And he has been with Matt since the start.

So he's got to do the right thing.

I tried my very best, but yeah. I'm proud of him.

And I just can't wait to meet his family

and all the families here. Matt and Jag are the

best people ever. - Well, you certainly

sound like you're flying high after being evicted.

But your job is not over, because now

you are a member of the jury. - Oh, I forgot.

- Yeah, so you still have some work to do.

And you'll be joined by the rest of the jury in moments

when you all vote for who you think

deserves to win "Big Brother." Bowie Jane, thank you.

- Thank you. Thank you so much, everyone.

- Up next, the final two are revealed to the jury,

and the jury gets the chance to grill them,

looking for answers to help them make

their decision on who deserves the / million

dollar grand prize. The live interrogation is next.

Stay with us. [cheers and applause]



[cheers and applause]

- Welcome back to the season finale of "Big Brother."

The fate of the final two now rests

in the hands of the jury. Please welcome back

Cameron, Cory, Blue, America, Cirie, and Felicia.

[cheers and applause] Now, as you can all see,

there's only six of you here right now,

and that's because it was only moments ago that the

final houseguest was evicted. Felicia, who do you

think that person was? - Jag.

- Well, let's see if you're right.

Juror number seven, come on out.

[cheers and applause] - Oh, my god!

- OK, just so everyone knows, Jag won

the final HOH in a tiebreaker. And obviously, he chose

to evict Bowie Jane and take Matt with

him to the final two. Now, jurors,

in just moments, you'll each be locking in your

vote for the person you think should win "Big Brother" .

But before you do that, you will have one last chance

to question Matt and Jag. You've been asked as a

group to come up with three questions for each finalist.

Have you all agreed on those questions?

- Yeah, we did. - All right, then let's

get started, shall we? Matt, Jag,

I'm here with the jury. And in just a few

moments, they will be voting for the person they

want to see win "Big Brother." But before they do,

they have some questions for the two of you.

Cirie, you're first. - OK, so my

question-- hi, guys. - Hi.

- Hey. - I miss you guys.

- We miss you. - Miss and love you.

- I love you too, Matty Ice,

and my question is for you, Matt.

"Through your entire game, we in the jury

"had the perception that Jag was the leader

"and you were the follower. "What moves can you

point out that were specifically your own

and not directed by Jag?" - I think my biggest move was--

we actually worked together on a lot of things.

But my biggest move was I played in Path of Power,

and I saved his game. And, you know,

there were big moves I made, and that was my biggest move.

Double evictions, you know, those were a team decision.

I mean, we did everything together,

and that's why we're here. He made his moves.

I made my moves. There was no

leader in this one. - Thank you, Matt.

Thank you, Cirie. Cory?

- Thank you, Julie. - What is your question,

and who is it for? - What's up, dudes?

- What's up? - Congrats.

- Hi, Cory. - I've got a similar question.

It's one for Jag, though, the Jag man.

"It was clear to all of us that you

"and Matt were working very closely

"together from the beginning. "What were the

dynamics of the duo? "And let's just be

honest, did you carry Matt to the final two?"

- Matt definitely saved me week four, and that's

something I will never forget. But I have paved our path to

the final two brick by brick, competition after

competition, plan after plan. I have made it happen myself.

There was a leader, and it was me the whole time.

I made sure of that. Thank you, Cory.

- Thanks, Jag. - Thank you, Jag.

All right. Thank you, Cory.

Felicia, you're up. - So, Matt, how you guys

doing, first of all? Congratulations.

- Thank you so much. - So, Matt, on two occasions,

you told me that you were-- you told me that you were

considering evicting Jag. - Mm-hmm.

- Were you ever really considering that,

or was that just a lie or fib that you told me?

- I never was going to do that. I told you what

you wanted to hear. I was loyal to Jag.

You know, I saved his game. I'm gonna stick with that.

End of the day, he's protecting me.

He's never put me up, and I've never heard from other people

that Jag was willing to put me up,

and vice versa, I've heard it from everyone

else in the house. So that's where my loyalty was.

- OK. - Thank you, Matt.

Thank you, Felicia. America, you have

the next question. - OK.

OK. The boys, hello.

- Hey, America. c*ck-a-Doodles-- I mean Jag,

"In your goodbye message "to each of us in the jury, you

took credit for our evictions, "but prior to the eviction,

you never owned up to it. "Each of us finds that approach

to have been cowardly. How do you defend these moves?"

- During everyone being in the house,

I recognize that nothing is certain until it is certain.

So I'm not gonna ruin my game by saying

anything before an eviction. That is the game I have played.

I'm very careful and strategic and masterful about the game

I have played. In my goodbye messages

is when the job is done. I have finished every job

I have set out to done, and that's when I can

own up to my moves. Thank you, America.

- Thank you, Jag. - Thank you, Jag.

America, thank you. Cameron, what's your question?

- Where we at? - Oh.

- Ah, the pick. Matty Ice,

this one's for you, bud. "Matt, we understand

that lying is a big part "of the 'Big Brother' game.

"Can you give us a specific example of a time in which you

"strategically lied to someone? And how did that

benefit your game?" - Yeah, telling people that

I would take a shot at Jag was one of them.

I kind of just played on everyone's side, told

them what they wanted to hear. That was my lying.

I tried to stay the most loyal I can be.

I was never making up things out of nowhere.

I kept information, and I used it when I needed to.

I just did that, you know? Yeah.

- Thank you, Matt. Thank you, Cameron.

Blue, what is your question? - Hello, hello, hello.

- Hey, Blue. - Hi.

OK, Jag, the one and only, "In week four,

you were voted out unanimously."

Remember that? - I do.

- "You only stayed because Matt saved you from eviction.

"Why do you deserve to win the game over the person who

saved you?" - Matt saved me.

And ever since that point, I have worked extremely

hard to adapt my game. My social-- Matt only

saved me because I was close enough to him.

That is testament to my social game.

After that point, I changed up my entire game.

I came up with a BB master plan for myself

where I analyzed all the relationships

in the house, mapped out the social dynamics.

I gathered information from sources around the house

and optimized every single week to make sure

that my targets went home and that every single week,

I was in a better and better position than the week before.

My entire journey in this game is testament to that.

Thank you, Blue. - Thank you, Jag.

Thank you, Blue. So, Bowie Jane, you were

just evicted minutes ago. So I want to give you a

chance to ask one question to either Matt or Jag.

- Jag, how did your game change for--

I'm gonna say the better-- when you joined

the Mafia with Matt and I? - Oh.

Joining the Mafia with y'all definitely

was such a blessing. What I've been trying to

find through this whole game is finding people

that are loyal. And Matt was definitely

someone that was loyal. I was loyal.

And, Bowie Jane, you have been extremely loyal.

We have had-- we've had to make a lot of big moves together.

We have protected each other, and that

has changed the entire course of this game.

Love you, Bowie. - Love you.

- Thank you, Jag. Thank you, Bowie Jane.

Matt, Jag, I'll be back in just a few moments

when you'll each have an opportunity

to make a final statement to the jury before they vote.

When we return, Matt and Jag have one last chance

to plead their case before the votes are cast, a speech

that could be worth $,. And later, who did you

choose as America's Favorite Houseguest?

Plus, a big announcement from the Big Brother universe.

- No. - Stay with us.

[cheers and applause] ♪

[cheers and applause]

- Welcome back to the live season finale of "Big Brother."

The jury is just moments away from casting

their votes to determine who will win "Big Brother."

Before they do, let's check back in with the final two.

Matt, Jag, it's now time for the jury to cast their votes.

But before they do, you each have

a chance to tell them why you deserve to win "Big Brother."

Matt, you're up first. - Hey, everyone.

I'm the first deaf person to play "Big Brother."

I have no role model. No one else has played this

game that I could look up to. That's a huge step for me.

I had to play a social game and a physical game.

Social game? Bro, I can't even hear

% of the conversations that happen in this house,

so I had to step up. What did I do to step up?

Lived in Have-Not. Have you seen that done before?

I lived in Have-Not so I can have

conversations and talk with everyone

and have good connections. Also, for my social game,

I almost had a perfect game. I would never got put up.

The one time I got put up,

guess who was deciding on my fate.

The guy I saved week four. That's a good social game.

Physical game? I came in this house,

and y'all saw me as a huge physical threat.

So I already knew that in my head,

I had to back away from winning comps.

I won the first comp. Look what happened.

Hisam was gunning for me. But I stepped away,

picked up my social game, played Path to Power,

used that, lied. I only told one person,

Cirie, and then obviously Jag. I kept that to better my game.

I lied about that power. And then, when it

came to actual peer pressure, double elimination,

two-time champ Veto. I performed when I

needed to in case there was gonna be

danger during that time. That's the scariest time,

and I performed there. Then I backed away because I

knew my social game was good. So I didn't need to win HOHs.

Then what else? I think that's most of it.

I mean, that's how I played, you know?

I was a team player. I didn't-- I knew I

could not get far playing this game being a solo player.

And that's why ultimately, I saved Jag, because I knew

we can go forward together. There was no leader.

There was no one bossing anyone.

I played my own game. He played his own game.

Had he gone out week four, I would have been fine

because I played a good social game

with everyone in this house. No one put me up until

the very last second. And you know how I

got up last second? Rock paper scissors.

I was willing to do that. Thank you.

- Thank you, Matt. Jag, you're up.

- Good luck. - I am standing

where I am standing and you are sitting where

you are sitting because I have willed it to be that way.

It is not by luck. It is not by a mistake.

It is because I signed your eviction notice.

When it was Bowie Jane's HOH, Cam was never gonna go

on the block. I convinced Bowie Jane

to put Cam on the block by creating a final

three with Matt and making a pact with

her that if anyone targets the three of us, we put them on

the block, no questions asked. I convinced her that

Cam was targeting me, won the Veto, sent him

home for the second time. I single-handedly

sent Cory home. I single-handedly

sent Blue home. When it-- it was

the double eviction, it was my plan that

sent America home. When it was Matt's HOH,

Cirie was never the target. She was never gonna go home.

I convinced Matt that we needed to send Cirie home.

I won the Veto that ultimately sent her home because I knew

Cirie was closer to Matt than she was to me,

and that was dangerous for my game.

I single-handedly sent Felicia home.

I single-handedly sent Bowie home.

My hands are covered in your blood.

I am the most dominant, masterful, and strategic

player in this house. I don't only deserve to win.

I have earned this victory. I am the first Sikh

player on "Big Brother," and not only that, you all

need to make the right decision today so I can be

crowned the first Sikh winner of "Big Brother."

It is the right thing to do, and I've earned

it every step of the way. Thank you all.

- Thank you, Jag. Thank you, both.

All right, jurors, it is time to vote

for the winner of "Big Brother."

One at a time, you will step up to the voting box

and insert the key with the name of the person

that you think deserves to win "Big Brother"

[cheers and applause] - Welcome back to the season

finale of "Big Brother." It's been a while since they

left the "Big Brother" house. Please say hello to

Kirsten, Reilly, Hisam, Red, Izzy, Jared, and Mecole.

[cheers and applause] Well, it's good to

see you all back here. Now, when the seven

of you got evicted, you got to see the

whole season play out from the comfort

of your own home, and I have a lot of questions

for you and also for the jury. But I would like to

start with Mecole. Watching from home, what

surprised you the most? - I think I was most surprised

to learn that Cameron is sort of the hero of the season.

I fully thought that he was the villain of the season.

I mean, listen, he nominated Mama Fe and Izzy,

and he watched Mama Fe take her tooth out and still

didn't give her a pie. So he was fully leaned

into being the villain. So yeah, I-- I thought he was

the villain, not the hero. [laughter]

- Cameron, you-- you have a surprised look on your face.

What do you think of what Mecole just said?

- I am flattered. I didn't--

- How did you see yourself in the house?

- I don't know that I necessarily saw

myself as a hero or a villain. I definitely wanted

to have some fun. And I put it all out

there as best I could. But noticing that I was

gonna be either one was-- was not on the radar.

- Well, there were definitely some other surprises

that came out. Hisam, what surprised

you the most? - The thing that surprised

me the most is Mecole is a political consultant.

And had I met her sooner and survived my eviction,

we would have worked together and been the final two.

[laughter] - Mecole, you told everyone

you were a teacher. - I did.

- OK. Now, Mecole, you weren't

the only one concealing your true profession.

Bowie Jane, now, while you are indeed a DJ--

- Shocking. - --you have been keeping

your true main profession from your houseguests.

I think it's time to come clean.

- I am a criminal trial attorney

who specializes in money laundering and tax fraud.

[cheers and applause] - Oh, my god!

- Now-- - But DJing is my number one.

- Felicia, why did you turn around and point to Cameron?

He guessed it? - He guessed it the other day.

- Oh, that's hilarious. - Something.

- He said she was an attorney. - OK.

Well, Felicia there is something that has been

puzzling you about Bowie Jane. What is that?

- Here we go. - OK, Bowie Jane,

we know you aren't . [laughter]

I'm , and I know what look like.

- Uh-huh. - How old are you, Bowie Jane?

- So I did think this house would be skewed a little

younger, so I thought-- so I didn't get kicked

out straightaway, I'm gonna say I'm , which

is years under what I am. I'm .

[laughter] - has never

looked more youthful. - Thank you.

- All right. Well, there are a couple

of more secrets to reveal. Now, Cameron, you have been

waiting for this moment all season because you

are convinced that Felicia has a famous relative.

So, Felicia, please set the record straight.

Are you related to Denzel Washington?

[laughter] - Absolutely not.

[laughter] - I was hoping--

- I had to be wrong at some point.

- But Denzel, if you're here, hey.

[laughter] - Well, Denzel may not

be related to anyone who was in the house this season.

However, I can tell you there was a huge secret twist

in the house because two people who were playing "Big Brother"

are actually related. [laughter]

Matt? Matt?

Once you pick your jaw off the ground,

I would like to hear your guess as to who the two people

might be that are related. - Cory and America.

[laughter] - No!

- May-- - No!

- --may-- may I ask how-- how you think they are related?

- Yes. - I didn't think

it through, actually. Now I realize that

was a bad one. Ah.

I think-- I don't know. - All right.

Well, let me-- let me turn to somebody else.

Jared? - Felicia and Jared.

- Felicia and Jared? - I know who was related.

- Go ahead. - I was playing this

game with my mother. [laughter]

- Will Jared's mother please reveal herself?

[cheers and applause] - [...]

- What? - We met her son.

- What? - Oh, my god.

- Yo, that sweater's fire. - Congratulations.

And you look amazing. - That is hilarious.

- No wonder I couldn't break through that.

[laughter] [indistinct chatter]

- No wonder he didn't use the Veto on you, huh?

- Right! - America, Felicia, and

Bowie Jane are freaking out. Cory, what's your reaction?

I voted out Jared and thought I could work with Cirie.

[laughter] - Well, I have to tell--

I have to tell the jury that your reaction is on par

with how your fellow housemates reacted, because one by one,

as they got evicted, I told them

about Cirie being Jared's mom. Let's take a look.

What would you say if I told you

there is a secret relationship in the house?

- Do tell. [laughs]

- Cirie is Jared's mother. - Cirie is--

[laughter] Shut up.

No way. - Oh.

Oh. - Oh.

[laughter] - Oh, wow.

Wow. - Stop!

Oh, my god! - You had no hint of this?

- I had no idea. - They're good liars.

That's awesome. - I hope they win.

- That's awesome. - You have a lot

of catching up, huh? - I have a lot of

catching up to do. [cheers and applause]

- Now, only one person figured out this secret,

and that is Izzy. How long have you known this?

- When we were standing on the live stage

before moving into the house, I looked at Jared,

and I was like, damn, that's Cirie Fields' son.

- Yep. - And then when--

- And how did you know? - You know, we live in

the time of social media. And it wasn't a secret

that I'm a big "Survivor" nerd and a big fan of Cirie's.

And so I follow on social media,

and I recognized his face. - And you told

them opening night. - I did.

- And you kept their secret. - I did.

- However, Jared, you weren't so great at keeping

your secret, even though you and your mom

made an agreement not to tell anyone.

What-- tell-- who did you tell? - So I told the one and only

other person outside of Izzy who I could trust in the

house, which was Blue. [laughter]

- Me? - Wow.

- Yeah. So Cirie is shaking her head.

Cirie, what do you think about Jared

revealing your secret to Blue? - Oh, we gonna talk after this.

[laughter] We got a lot of talking to do.

- Oh, my god. - Didn't we learn

family doesn't fight in front of people?

- Well-- - That's why I said after this.

- --this season definitely had its share of showmances.

But Reilly and Matt's budding showmance was cut short.

So, Reilly, is there anything you'd

like to say right now to Matt? - Hi, Matty.

Long time no see. - Long time no see.

See you in a few minutes. - Yeah, see you on the

other side of the wall. I just want to tell you, I

have been rooting for you /. I am so proud of you.

Look at where you are now, day .

Back to week two, it wasn't looking so pretty.

So I'm really proud of you, everything you've overcome

in a house full of whisperers. I am so excited to

see you and have that conversation we both

have been wanting to have. And I did bring a

little good luck charm. - Oh!

- So-- - That's cute.

- --I can't wait to see you. I miss you.

- [indistinct]. - Well, thank you, everyone.
