01x23 - Episode 23

Post by bunniefuu »

NARRATOR: It began days ago, when total strangers moved

into the Big Brother House.

Look at this place, you guys.

NARRATOR: We've seen nasty fights--

Understand.

Just stop talking, OK? 'Cause you're irritating

the [muted] out of me. - Engage in this conversation--

You don't know what you're talking about?

NARRATOR: Secrets revealed.

Like, especially with something like me,

being an exotic dancer.

Are you gonna tell anyone?

NARRATOR: Strange bedfellows.

Yeah, my friends call me a cuddle sl*t.

NARRATOR: And romantic intrigue.

I think as long as I'm here, Brittany and Josh

aren't going to be hooking up.

[laughing]

If I can help it.

I have to be honest, my sex drive is like,

going crazy right now.

NARRATOR: Two weeks ago, Will Mega was the first guest

banished from the house.

Tonight, someone else must go.

Will it be Curtis, the lawyer?

Curtis is so freaking boring.

NARRATOR: Or Jordan, the stripper?

Do I just kind of suck?

NARRATOR: Find out who gets banished,

live, right now on Big Brother.

[theme music playing]

[applause]

Hi, I'm Julie Chen.

Welcome to this live edition of Big Brother.

It's the moment of truth for Curtis and Jordan.

They've been marked for banishment

by their fellow houseguests, and tonight, your votes

will determine who gets to stay, and who must leave the house.

This is the second time Jordan's been nominated,

and it could have something to do

with how she's been playing with the feelings

of other houseguests.

Like, I'm really looking for something

to add some excitement to my days here.

By me?

Yeah.

Kind of like, you're settling.

Or you thought that I was more physically attracted to you.

I wanna play games with people.

Wait a minute.

Where are you going?

Aren't we going back to the thing?

Yes, we are.

I want to have like, little emotional games going on.

I know Brittany's totally after your a*s.

That's kind of a no-brainer, duh.

And if you're like, if you doubt that for a minute,

you're totally naive.

I've got this, like, I've got this little devil

inside me that just wants to antagonize Brittany.

I like to struggle.

I create struggles for myself.

I'm big into games, like I'm big in politics and stuff

like that.

And not that they're healthy all the time,

but in a situation like this, it could be pretty fun.

Knowing that she's got this little vindictive

mean streak in her, I don't feel safe to be

completely open with her.

But you know, Karen?

[music playing]

[applause]

And then there's Curtis.

He seems like a nice guy, hasn't got into any fights,

always does his share of work around the house.

But his troubles may have begun with the way

he interacts with George.

That Curtis intimidates me sometimes.

Curtis?

Yeah.

Why?

I notice when I play cards and that, sometimes, with him, he

makes me sometimes feel like I'm stupid or something, you know?

He makes you feel stupid, I'll kick his a*s.

Like, I thought my best chance of staying here would be like,

just not get nominated, like, getting along with people.

But you know, I'm kinda like, I'm not a boring lawyer guy.

Eddie is a lawyer, OK?

He's a shark, man.

He's a shark.

Yeah, me and Theresa know all about lawyers, and raking us

through the coals, and when it comes down to just

leaving you high and dry--

we know.

It's not like anybody dislikes you.

No, it's just I refuse to kiss a*s, you know what I mean?

Like, I'm friends with everybody,

but I'm not like, everybody's favorite guy.

Yeah.

I guess the only thing with Curtis is, I enjoy being in his

company, but I still don't--

as far as his feelings about things,

I don't think he's deep.

I think my first hug from my dad was my st birthday.

Oh my God.

And that-- that's why we're all dead inside.

Are you kidding me?

You are dead inside, you poor thing.

[laughing]

Curtis is just--

[imitating curtis' laugh]

How many like, good clips do I give,

or how much interesting drama do I create?

I'm like, nah, I'm just whatever.

We'll see.

Curtis?

Curtis, I don't know.

Frankly, as much as I will hate it,

I think he'll be the one that will go.

I think he looks down on me, because I'm not--

like I say, I don't have the college

degree, stuff like that.

Well, George.

My vote just went the other way.

[music playing]

[applause]

As you can see, there's some ill will directed at Curtis.

So let's check in now, and see how he and the others

are doing.

Hello houseguests, it's Julie.

Hey.

Well, what do we have here?

Last week we had Jordan dress up as Mario.

And tonight, I guess we have two Chippendale's dancers?

Josh and Eddie.

[laughing]

What are you guys, trying to give

Jordan a run for her money?

Eddie and I figured we're probably jobless when we get

out of here, and maybe Hugh Hefner will have

a bartending spot open for us.

JULIE: Oh Josh, you are laying the ground work.

Curtis. - Yeah.

How are you doing tonight?

I'm all right, a little nervous, I guess.

JULIE: Yeah, just a little nervous?

Yeah.

Otherwise, you'd see me in my full Chippendale's regalia.

[laughing]

JULIE: Oh, the ladies are disappointed

you didn't do that. - Yeah.

I'm sure they are, Julie.

[laughing]

Well, how about Jordan, you're a pro at this now.

This is your second time.

I'm having a d ja vu.

[laughing]

JULIE: How are you feeling?

I feel good, I've never been banished on my birthday

by America before, so--

JULIE: You know, that's something

you should have said last week, to have

a week-long sympathy vote.

Well, I assume both of you have your bags packed.

Are you guys ready to hear the news tonight?

Ready as we're ever going to be.

I'm not ready.

Too bad, Jordan, too bad.

Can we hold off?

No, nope, this is a live program,

we've got to go forward with it.

So Curtis, I need you to go to the red room.

What does that mean?

Surprise, surprise, surprise.

That didn't happen last time, did it?

No.

That's strange.

There's something in there for him.

Yeah.

What's that?

Something in there for him.

Doesn't it sound like there's a person in there?

Oh, my heart is just like--

Think he might have spoke to himself.

Pardon me?

He might have been speaking to himself.

Need a hand, Curtis.

Nah.

[SINGING] Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday, dear Jordan.

Happy birthday to you.

Woo-hoo!

[clapping]

Wow.

Oh my gosh.

Someone drew Jordan on this.

Awesome.

Oh my gosh.

[yelling]

[interposing voices]

Insult to injury.

Take the cake off the cart.

[laughing]

You want to put it on the table?

- Yeah, why not? - Yeah, let's do that.

I don't think anybody ever eaten any.

This is so cool.

There you go.

Hold on, let me get on this out.

Cart by Ikea.

Wow.

I look like a troll.

[laughing]

OK, make a wish.

I look like Beavis with hair.

[laughing]

I do.

We get more cups.

Are we supposed to just do this?

Yeah, I mean.

Julie.

We only have like minutes, hurry up.

[laughing]

I don't want any cake.

I'm full.

But I'll take a little champagne.

Jordan, if you're leaving, you could take the cake with you.

[laughing]

You have to make a wish and blow the candles out, Jordan.

I'd feel bad eating the cake if she wasn't here.

Like, I'm gonna choke on this.

- Watch your face. - What do I do?

Do I blow them out?

Yeah, definitely, blow them out.

Make a wish, though.

OK.

[grunting]

It's totally like Beavis.

I totally look like Beavis with hair.

Look at that.

It's kind of cool, though.

Yeah.

[cork popping] - OK.

Oh, I like that sound.

Salute.

Hurry, before the commercials are up.

[laughing]

Wanna pour this, I'll pass it around?

Yeah.

Get 'em liquored up before you send

'em out into the real world.

Thank you.

Lay the ground work.

You sure?

Uh-huh.

Thank you.

I'll just pour.

Thanks, man.

We have more cups.

Is that OK?

For some reason I can't really relax and enjoy this.

[laughing]

Feeling kind of artificial?

[laughing]

Like, yay, I'm so relaxed, and I feel safe.

Jamie, just a little bit.

In this non-judgement area.

Well, we were hoping that would

ease the tension in the house-- apparently

Jordan doesn't feel it.

But stay with us, because when we come back,

I'm going to tell you who will be banished.

[music playing]

[applause]

Welcome back.

As you know, the Big Brother House is equipped with

cameras, and microphones.

And it's something the houseguests

always seem to be aware of.

[whirring]

They follow you everywhere.

I know.

I told you that as soon as you get up out of the bed, then

they have to--

she's brushing your teeth, she's shaking out her hair.

Oh yeah, and then going to the bathroom, all of a sudden,

the minute I open the door, they're like, eeee!

[whirring]

Quit it.

Ooh.

Is this turning you on?

It's like you're watching me.

Uh.

[whirring]

Ow.

See what you made me do?

Ow.

Has anybody talked to the camera yet?

Like, talked to their friends back home, or said, "Hi Mom?"

Look, Mom, I'm making bread.

I told my two-year-old niece that her uncle, me,

was going to be in the TV, and when she saw me, to put her

hand up to the TV like this.

Good night, Ashley, I love you.

Sweet dreams.

She told me to tell her goodnight.

[music playing]

[whirring]

[sighs]

[whirring]

[laughing]

Wow, that's creepy.

[whirring]

[whirring]

[applause]

I'm here with the friends and family members

of the two marked houseguests.

And I'd like to welcome back Jordan's boyfriend,

Ben, and her sister Elizabeth.

You've been with us before.

And Anne came in today from Minneapolis,

Jordan's best friend.

Ben, let me ask you, how do you think--

how do you think things are going to go down tonight?

Well I believe that Jordan will

survive tonight's nomination, and she will survive--

she'll be there for a while.

But personally, I want her to be out,

so I can celebrate her birthday.

- That's an honest answer. - Yeah.

- Thanks, Ben. - You're welcome.

Let me turn now to Curtis' family,

from nearby Glendale, California.

Michael is Curtis' his older brother--

oh look, you guys are wearing the same thing tonight,

Curtis-- - We planned it that way.

You did plan it that way.

But you're not supposed to talk to him in the house.

No.

How do you think things are going to go down tonight?

Well, when Curtis came into the Big Brother House,

he really came in with no expectations, no agenda.

And he's managed to get along well with all

of his housemates, but I don't think he's been able to develop

a deep relationship with any particular person or alliance,

and I think that's kind of hurt him.

My prediction-- and I hope I'm wrong--

is that we might be taking Curtis home this evening.

OK, and that is an honest answer as well.

Michael, thank you so much.

Thank you.

And again, thanks to Ben.

[applause] Well, let's end the suspense.

It's time now to reveal the final results.

As you recall, last week, Curtis got one

more nomination than Jordan.

And if it were up to the houseguests,

Curtis would be banished.

But they don't make the final decision, you do.

And your decision is crystal clear tonight.

From the moment the phone lines were open,

Jordan got the most votes--

and by a four to one margin.

It didn't change much over the weekend

either, not even David Letterman's

late night campaign to save the stripper could help Jordan.

The final results are Jordan with % of the vote,

and Curtis with %.

Jordan will be banished from the house tonight.

And later on, we'll break the news to the houseguests,

and talk to Jordan here in our studio.

There are some big questions about her future,

and her family.

So why did the viewers vote the way they did?

Here with some insight is Dr. Drew

Pinsky, our health and relationship specialist,

as he is every week.

[applause]

Thank you.

Good to see you again.

Hello.

Four to one margin.

Amazing.

Huge.

Yeah, amazing.

Were you-- you were surprised by this, now?

I am truly surprised by this.

But I'm kind of relieved, too.

You can see the way the American people are voting,

they're tending to vote out people who are creating

instability in the house.

So there isn't-- I was concerned that some sort of gladiator

mentality would prevail, and people would push a sort

of a draconian interest in drama,

and keep people in the house that

we're creating instability.

Instead, if they see people who are creating

problems for other people in the house,

they kind of vote them out.

So it seems as if the viewers are taking this--

- Seriously. - Seriously.

They're taking it seriously.

And I think they're voting--

it's interesting.

In my little straw poll I do, I talk

to people on the outside about how they're voting,

and what they think about things.

And women, particularly, are very tuned

into what's going in that house, and they

don't like it when that somebody creates instability.

They vote them out, they've had enough.

So they don't like anyone causing

waves, even though they might make for better television?

That's right.

It doesn't seem to be their concern.

Their concern really is honestly,

what's going on with the people in the house,

the relationships in the house.

Well, what is it specifically about Jordan

that the viewers didn't like?

Other than creating ways-- like, specifically,

is it characteristics?

Well, she said it herself just a few minutes ago in one

of the pieces, is that she plays with people,

and she plays games.

And to the extent that people perceive her

as exploiting other people, they don't

like that, they don't like the way she interfered

between Joshua and Brittany.

We see her exhibit glee at the kind of disruption

she created for them, and that didn't

sit well with people I think.

And she's sometimes angry and irritable.

She got tremendous strength, and she's--

I think she's a very, very interesting person,

and I think they will miss her.

- Yeah, yeah. - I really do.

I think they'll miss her, genuinely.

I agree.

But it's interesting, because she went into the red room

and admitted that she is manipulative.

But it was just a game, so the viewers

didn't see it so innocent?

I think because it caused real feelings, and real hurt--

if it was a game, it was a game that should have stopped

long before it hurt people.

And the % that voted against Curtis, do you see that as a--

we don't like Curtis, or that's a vote to keep Jordan in?

You know, I think it's more of a vote to keep Jordan in.

The sort of over the top energy that Jordan seemed to create

seemed to be that negative energy.

But people don't come out for positive things

so much as they do for a negative.

It's true.

But Curtis, I think he's opening up,

I think he's going to be an interesting and more involved

member of the household.

And it will be interesting to see if he gets nominated

again next week, because Jordan was twice in a row,

now she's out.

But he really does seem to be opening up.

I have a sense that I know a lot more about Curtis

than I did even a couple of days ago.

So we'll see.

Dr. Drew, thank you.

Thank you, Julie.

It's time to check in on Jordan's little surprise party.

Let's talk to the houseguests once again.

Hi houseguests, this is Julie.

Hi.

Hey.

What kind of dent did you make on the cake?

And you don't look like Beavis, Jordan.

[laughing]

If you look like Beavis, I look like Butthead, OK?

You are way more attractive.

So Jordan, did you make a wish when you blew out the candles?

Yes.

JULIE: And what did you wish for?

I can't tell you.

JULIE: Why, you're really that superstitious?

Because, yep.

I can't tell you.

JULIE: If I guess right, will you say?

I predict you guessed to stay in the house.

Well, OK, this was really my wish.

I wished that if I had to go, and I

couldn't do naked trampoline, that you would.

[laughing]

JULIE: I'll tell you right now--

because you announced it, it's not coming true.

You know the rules.

[laughing]

Curtis.

Yes.

How bad did I scare you when I said your name,

and told you to go to the red room?

Pretty bad, Julie, let's do that one again.

[laughing]

JULIE: You should have seen the look on everyone's face.

Well, Curtis, I hate to tell you that you

are not out of the woods yet--

yet.

I'm just sweating you tonight.

Aren't you?

JULIE: I'm just kidding, I'm just teasing.

But I want everyone to continue with the party as best you can.

I know it's a tense night, but I will be back in a little

while to let everyone know--

Aw, someone's disappointed.

You know, this is television, we have to constantly tease,

tease, tease, these, tease.

But I will be back shortly to let everyone know who

the banished houseguest is, OK?

All right.

Stay with us, because will the houseguests

be surprised by the results?

That's the big question right now.

The big moment is almost here.

We'll be right back with this live edition of Big Brother.

[music playing]

Now it's time to tell the houseguests.

All right, everyone, I'm back like I said I would be.

That wasn't too long, was it?

What?

I said I'm back, by popular demand!

Oh.

See, you're all having a good time, not even listening to me.

Every stray cat is scratching at the walls right now.

[laughing]

JULIE: OK.

Let's sing another song.

JULIE: What song were you singing?

A little more of it, George.

[laughing]

JULIE: All right, well, I have to get down to business

now, you guys.

As soon as I announce who the banished houseguest is,

that person will have three minutes to say their goodbyes

to everyone in the house, and I will interrupt and let

you know when your time is up.

OK, so is everyone ready?

The houseguest to be banished is Jordan.

[sighing]

- Good luck. - Yeah.

Good luck.

Bye.

Take care of yourself.

Thanks.

Bye, Eddie.

It's been a pleasure.

Take care.

See ya.

See ya later.

Bye.

Good luck.

Thank you.

Bye.

Ooh.

Are you guys going to follow me out?

Oh, absolutely.

Yeah.

I can't control it.

Come on.

This means w*r, no?

I know.

Oh, I get to do the pool raft.

- Do you want it on your back? - Huh?

Do you want it on your back?

I'm just gonna carry it on my shoulder.

OK, I'm gonna weigh the raft.

Don't you run away like Mega did.

You hold on there.

I am.

OK.

Watch the cable, watch the cable.

It's--

We call?

We will be.

She's just gonna break the door.

It's kinda stuck.

Wow.

Oh, I see what you're saying.

[laughing]

Are you guys all coming out?

- Oh yeah.

Duh, of course.

No sun.

Ah!

Babe!

Baby!

[interposing voices]

On the steps.

[booing]

Bye.

I love you.

I love you, too.

[inaudible]

See you in Minneapolis.

[inaudible]

Bye, you.

Mm.

Jordan, look at your fans.

Thank you so much.

[inaudible]

Hey, go have a good chess game.

[laughing]

All right?

I'll see you out there.

You take care of yourself.

OK.

OK, be good.

Bye again.

Good luck to you.

Thanks, you too.

Bye Karen.

Going to your boyfriend?

Uh-huh.

I bet you're so excited.

I'm so excited.

Hi again, there, guys.

Good job.

OK, got it.

Get an aerial shot of this!

Hi!

Bye, you guys.

Bye Jordan.

Good luck.

Bye Jordan.

Woo!

Forget about it, just forget about it, leave it there.

- What? - Forget about it.

Leave it there.

Hey, you.

I [inaudible] my pool raft.

[inaudible]

I missed you so bad.

Oh.

I feel like I haven't seen you forever.

I know, I know, tell me about it.

Tell me about it.

How you feeling, baby? - Good.

How are you? - I'm good.

You did awesome.

[laughing]

You did awesome.

I looked like hell, like, half the time.

No, I thought you did awesome.

OK? Had an awesome time.

Hi.

- It's time to go. - All right.

Let's go get in the van and go down to the station.

Leave everything, don't worry about it.

Don't worry about your stuff, we'll

bring it down with the limo.

OK.

[laughing]

I'm kind of excited.

Ah!

[laughing]

I was so excited.

Say hi, say hi.

I have a lot of fans up there.

Jump, jump.

[applause]

In the backseat.

Have a nice day, everybody!

Wow, that welcome mat, I never noticed.

Ed, should we stick a pole in here?

[laughing]

Hey, we're going to stab you.

Someone owes me dinner.

Don Barbecue.

[laughing]

The house [inaudible] on, Curtis.

When you gonna do Don Barbecue again?

Wow.

[laughing]

[interposing voices]

We were figuring out the booze--

Yeah?

Because we didn't have no booze, OK.

So you didn't bring out no booze, so we

were figuring, logically--

you know what I'm saying?

Because you didn't have the booze,

'cause they always had booze.

You owe me ten bucks.

I owe him ten bucks.

'Cause I said, they didn't bring out no booze for her birthday.

Ah.

So we started putting two and two together.

Oh, we have more room in our bedroom now.

[laughing]

I didn't even think about that.

Congratulations, Curtis.

Thanks, guys.

That's good spade playing, man.

I'm glad to have more time.

But that will be enough.

We have enough love.

Everyone can snore in our room now.

I know, I can snore again.

You can sleep--

Three rockers stick together!

[yelling]

Oh boy.

Oh, now we'll have everybody in the love bed.

[laughing]

No?

[laughing]

No.

Curtis, you'll be around for tonic, man.

I'm very excited about tonic.

And everything else.

That's a neat birthday for her, though, is it not?

Oh yeah, I think so.

I think she's--

I'm so happy her boyfriend is so--

They're both happy.

I was just worried, 'cause she was

so worried about how he'd react to everything that's happened.

He gave me the thumbs-up.

Did he?

[laughing]

Oh yeah.

We were like this.

[laughing]

[interposing voices]

OK.

Wow.

Wow.

I don't know if you guys noticed,

but there are more and more people, and more

and more photographers outside.

[interposing voices]

When Mega walked out, it was just-- you know,

just the people from here.

Now it's at least four or five, maybe even six photographers,

a couple more cameras, and more people up

in the parking garage.

Wow.

And cue.

[applause]

OK, bye.

[music playing]

Hey.

Oh, hey.

Come on over here, we want to see you.

Come around this way.

[cheering]

[inaudible]

Stick around, we've got many important questions to ask

Jordan when we come back.

And we're gonna show her how she came

across on TV in just a moment.

[music playing]

[applause]

Welcome back, we're here with Jordan, who's just

been banished from the house.

Happy birthday, Jordan.

Thank you.

You like your present we gave you?

This is wonderful, to be banished by America.

Wasn't my decision, OK?

Well, how do you feel right now?

I feel--

I feel really, I feel foreign to everyone outside the house.

It was so bizarre to see my boyfriend.

I feel like I haven't seen him for a year.

And it was only days or so.

Yeah, but it's just, it's another world in there.

It's another world.

Do you feel like you need time to decompress?

Because you know, after this live interview,

we give you hours, and then you get to, you know,

do the whole circuit-- if you choose

to do so-- talk show circuit.

But you're feeling kind of--

Yeah I feel really skitter-ish,

I have a lot of adrenaline.

It's just, it's crazy.

I don't know what to think.

I'm just all over the place.

Fair enough.

And very natural, I'm sure, for anyone put in your position.

Are you surprised that you were voted out by the viewers?

Part of me is, part of me isn't.

It depends on how they edited me.

Because I was there /, I was very honest about my emotions,

I went through a lot of different things in the house.

And depending on what they showed,

America could just be like, you know, she's a wench.

You know, or she's horrible, get her out.

You know, on the other hand, they could've been like,

she's really entertaining, she causes controversy,

it's definitely not boring, she's

the reason why it's so dysfunctional,

It's fun to watch.

I don't know.

Well, I bet you you're dying to know

what you did look like on tape.

No, I'm not.

No, you're not?

No, I'm not.

Well, too bad, because we're going to show you.

I don't want to see myself at all.

You might be pleasantly surprised.

OK.

I mean, you were always--

you were always aware of the cameras, were you not?

Because you could hear them moving.

Actually, no.

At times, you really forget they're there.

It's like you don't even think about-- you hear them,

but you don't realize you're on TV.

Like, not once in that house did I think, I'm on TV.

Like I said that?

Like, I'm on TV right now.

But it never seemed real.

It never seemed real at all.

Describe life in the house for you.

Completely dysfunctional.

[laughing]

Sorry, I just spit.

JULIE: It's all right, it's live television.

It's a completely dysfunctional,

completely dysfunctional house.

Why, because of the people in the house?

The people are messed up. [laughing]

What? What'd you say?

No, I was going to say, the people are messed up.

But no, just the whole--

the way it's set up.

We're set up to bond as a family,

but then every two weeks, we stab somebody, and nominate

them to get kicked out.

And in your family, you don't nominate

someone to get kicked out.

And so that creates a lot of controversy, a lot of tension,

a lot of discomfort.

Did you ever get to the point where

you said, I want to leave, I'm walking out, I'm out of here.

Yeah.

JULIE: Really?

That doesn't surprise me. Do you know why?

Why.

Well, we're going to show you a series of clips

that we put together of you living in the house.

The minute you walked in that house, Jordan,

you should have seen the look of horror on your face.

So we put together this video montage if you will.

Oh no.

Turn over to the big jumbo screen, the Miranda.

[interposing voices]

So many times, and I'm like, I don't

know why this is in the case.

I brought my cigarettes, and I said that--

The reality is, I'm in this house with nine people,

like half of them don't like me.

I didn't expect this at all, I thought it'd be like this,

you know, kind of funhouse.

Guys there's a bike.

I'm so excited.

[music playing]

[laughing]

I'd really-- I'd really like everybody to tell me

why they voted me out.

Should we decide as a group?

There's one reason that I don't want to do that.

You guys are all afraid.

That's why you're saying this.

You're afraid--

I'm ready to do it as a group.

You're afraid of yourself.

You're afraid of yourself.

You're afraid because-- and you know what, this next week's

going to be great, because now I can say

whatever the [muted] I want.

Oh my God.

[laughing]

Does everybody here think I've been really high stressed,

/?

I mean--

Lately, yes.

I have to be honest, my sex drive is like,

going crazy right now.

I'm saying we would never be compatible people.

So you don't want to be with someone who's independent,

strong-willed, and has opinions.

[music playing]

Oh, wow.

Wow.

What do you think?

That's really interesting, because it's edited

with a very specific slant.

JULIE: And that slant would be?

That slant would be that I'm horrified to be there, that, oh

my God, what is this all about?

This sucks, I'm going through all this emotional turmoil,

I'm totally into Josh, and like, I'm at the verge

of getting with him.

You know, that's-- that's definitely how it's edited.

So fair or not fair, then?

That's not the full story.

Not the full story.

Well, that was just a clip.

We were on for days now.

But stay right there, because when we come back, we do

want to ask you about the whole Josh situation.

That and much more, as we continue this live conversation

with Jordan.

Back in a moment.

[music playing]

[applause]

Welcome back, we're talking with Jordan about being

banished from the house.

We left off talking about this whole Josh situation.

Were you ever truly interested in him?

Truly interested?

As if I would leave my boyfriend?

No.

JULIE: What about, were you ever truly attracted to him?

Yeah, I was truly attracted to him, yeah.

And I think that that's a normal thing that people go through.

They're involved with someone, but you're always going to have

attractions for other people.

What about the flirting?

Innocent?

Playful?

I think it was very innocent.

Very innocent.

JULIE: What if he made an advance

on you during one of those--

Well I'm not--

I wouldn't have been helpless, like, oh, oh no,

don't make an advance on me.

What do I do?

I mean, if he would have made an advance,

I wouldn't have responded.

You would not have acted on it.

No.

Because it's interesting, at first

we saw you say in the red room that the only reason

you were flirting with Josh was to get under Brittany's skin.

You were playing games, you were having fun with that.

Brittany and I got really catty with each other

for like a week.

But then, a week later, you and Brittany bonded.

Mm-hmm.

JULIE: And decided to turn things around on Josh.

Why?

What was the turning point?

The turning point was that Brittany

and I had perceptions of each other

that were a little skewed.

And then when we got everything out on the table one night,

and just talked, we talked all night about who we were, what

we'd both been experiencing.

And we compared notes--

Yeah, we saw that.

About the whole Josh thing.

And we realized that she and I were on the same page.

You consider her a friend now?

Yeah, definitely.

Well, more than half the houseguests nominated you

for banishment in the red room, and I'm

sure you want to know who they were, and what they had to say.

So here are the clips.

I nominated Jordan, and it's just that, I don't know,

things are better in the house, but I still

have the same feelings that I had

the first time I nominated her.

She doesn't work well in the group,

as well as well as everybody else.

She don't let issues die.

I was having a difference opinion

about her until Friday evening, when she

wore that "Models Suck" shirt.

I thought maybe she could leave Eddie alone.

But after she wore the shirt, that kind of

put icing on the cake.

There's not really a specific reason,

it's just a lot of stuff happened

throughout the last nomination.

And just-- I don't know-- how she acted

over being nominated last time.

She just annoys the hell out of me.

It's not a good enough reason, but everybody's

got to go sooner or later.

Listen to that voice man, her voice in annoying as all hell.

[laughing]

She just makes a lot people uncomfortable-- not myself,

because I can handle her.

But there are three or four people that I

know she's made uncomfortable.

So I think once she's gone, the people will be a bit more

relaxed, and there won't be kind of the sinister

behind-the-scenes stuff going on.

Jordan, what'd you think of what you just heard?

That's totally accurate.

- Not surprised? - No.

JULIE: By any of the people who nominated you?

No, uh-uh.

OK.

Now, while you were in the house,

the fact that you are an exotic dancer was a big storyline.

So we went to Minneapolis to talk

to some of your colleagues, and here's what they had to say.

Oh no.

The competition inside of this club is incredible.

It takes a lot of strength to be an entertainer

inside of this club.

I don't think she would have made it into the house

without her experience here.

I don't think I'm ever going to go back.

I'm done with it.

I'm really, personally done.

I just want to write about it now.

I think Jordan will be back for work here, I really do.

Well, she hasn't cleaned out her locker, for one.

When she left the club, she said,

I'll see you in a few weeks.

When I quit, I went through withdrawal.

Like, because I missed the energy,

I missed a lot of things about it.

And it was very empowering to me as a woman.

You know?

Oh, I'm sure.

And most people look at that as, oh,

it's so degrading, degrading.

It is degrading.

But it's also empowering.

I think it needs to be remembered

that Jordan is an entertainer.

She will come back, just so that she can

prove that she can come back.

Well, Jordan, are you going back?

Uh-uh.

No?

No.

Why not?

I'm done.

When did you make that decision?

I made it before I went in this house.

Then why did you say, see you guys in two months?

And how come you didn't clean out your locker?

Because I needed to clean out my locker.

You know, I just--

I went in-- and actually I had worked,

like, a couple of weeks before that,

hadn't cleaned out my locker.

You know.

JULIE: So what are you going to do now?

I think I was a little hesitant to just cut the ties.

JULIE: Sure.

Because that's how it's been for like six months.

I've been a little hesitant, because that's huge income,

and a lot of flexibility.

So I was hesitant to cut the ties.

But after being in this house, no.

So what are you going to do now then?

I have no idea.

But I'm set for that a couple of months.

You know, I'm financially set, I set myself

up for a couple of months, so--

I don't think it would be very hard to imagine--

now that you're out of this house, and the whole

country knows who you are--

I could see you getting an offer to pose nude,

and get paid a lot of money.

Is that something you would consider--

ever consider doing?

We talked about that a lot in the house, Jamie

and I talked about that in the house.

I think that I would consider just about everything.

I'd consider it, but I'd say, the chances are close to none.

JULIE: Depends on what?

The amount of money?

The publication?

No, it's not-- it's not about the money.

It won't be about the money.

You had a very emotional moment in the red room.

We saw you a few weeks ago crying, talking about how you

had to tell your parents before going in the Big Brother House

that you are an exotic dancer.

And you kept it secret for two years from them,

and you said it was so beautiful the way they

accepted you for what you are.

We invited them to come tonight.

In fact, they are not here.

What happens when you go back to Minneapolis

and see your parents?

I have no idea.

I have no idea, because you know,

I took a huge risk coming on the show.

Certain things-- I mean, I was in the house /,

I had conversations /.

You know, except when I was sleeping, which wasn't often.

And my parents have seen a select segment

of those conversations.

I have no idea what they think.

I have no idea how they're feeling.

But that's a risk I took, so I'm going

to deal with it the best I can.

We definitely wish you well, but stay right there, because

there's still more coming up.

OK.

We'll be back in a moment.

[music playing]

[applause]

And I guarantee you, the day after she's gone,

those twits will be sitting around saying,

yeah, it was more fun when we had an exotic dancer.

[laughter]

Breakfast was better, everything was better.

Yeah.

[laughter]

Breakfast was better.

Honest to God, why would you do that?

They don't want a rating-- they don't want to get a--

You're not even on for three damn months, and you

vote the exotic dancer out ?

They don't want ratings.

They don't have television in this house!

They have an exotic dancer!

Oh no, no, no.

[laughter]

[applause]

No, I don't.

What's wrong with people?

[applause]

Welcome back.

We are here with the "exotic dancer."

What'd you think of that clip?

Thought it was funny.

You made, you know, The Late Show with David Letterman.

I figured I would, being a "stripper," you know, so--

Right.

Well, I have a piece of good news for you.

You have been invited to appear on The Late Show

with David Letterman.

Cool.

JULIE: You're gonna do it?

Yeah.

JULIE: You're a fan of his.

Yeah, big fan, Huge fan.

JULIE: If you weren't before, you are now, right?

[laughing]

And if you thought it was nerve-wracking to be

in the Big Brother House, wait till you

get on the set of Letterman.

But I'm sure you'll do fine.

No, no, it'll be a piece of cake compared to that house.

Jordan, good luck to you.

Thanks for being a good sport.

Thanks.

Best wishes.

That's it for now.

Next Wednesday night, during our live show,

we'll introduce everyone to a new houseguest.

And tomorrow night, there's another edition of Big Brother.

I'm Julie Chen, have a good night.

[muted] practice.

Maybe we should just have Karen swing, I don't know.

If Karen and George can make it high enough.

You guys were swinging pretty good though.

Yeah.

He's got the long arms, and it's high, and it's slower.

That's true.

I like that rhythm, with you guys in it.

OK.

Whatever's best.

And the fact we got it in--

Ninth, yeah.

Yeah.

The reason we're screwed up is not because

of practice, or anything else.

It's just because you screw up on it.

Although I could [muted] right.

[laughing]

[interposing voices]

Just make it like, second nature to--

NARRATOR: CBS' internet partner.

You can get to the Big Brother website

by logging onto bigbrother.com,

or AOL Keyword: Big Brother.

Yeah, just get the jump down first.

Think you guys could be all right.

Tomorrow afternoon we'll do, like, noon.

When they ask us, we'll have the run down.

Or we get everybody used to saying it,

in the way that like, Brit kind of trained us.
