[bunniefuu]

PHIL PROCTOR: Previously on "Big Brother ,"

Drew shocked the house by nominating

Marvin and Diane for eviction.

Some of the people in this game,

sometimes, you can't trust them

PHIL PROCTOR: And Diane was heartbroken that her bedmate

had turned against her.

You don't trust me.

Basically, that's the only words that I hear

PHIL PROCTOR: But Drew revealed it was

all part of his secret plan.

Hopefully by doing this, it makes you

and I not look at close.

PHIL PROCTOR: Knowing the House wanted Marvin out--

Right.

PHIL PROCTOR: --Diane made a promise.

I want everybody bleeding for that veto tomorrow.

I mean, I'll fight for it.

I promise.

I promise.

PHIL PROCTOR: But when Diane won the Power of Veto,

she wasn't prepared to trust her alliance.

I choose to save myself.

PHIL PROCTOR: And one of her allies went up in her place.

I would like to put Niko and myself on the block.

PHIL PROCTOR: Raising doubt whether Diane

could be trusted at all.

Diane said if I win the veto, I will not use it.

PHIL PROCTOR: The eviction went as planned.

JULIE: Marvin, you are evicted from the "Big Brother" house.

PHIL PROCTOR: And for the third time, Nakomis took control.

JULIE: Congratulations, Nakomis.

You are the new Head of Household.

PHIL PROCTOR: Who will Nakomis nominate for eviction?

And will the Power of Veto save someone

from the chopping block?

Find out tonight, on "Big Brother ."

[electronic music]

JULIE: By a vote of to , Marvin,

you are evicted from the "Big Brother" house.

I don't think that if Marvin had a whole month to campaign

that he could have saved himself.

Hey, no hard feelings.

Yeah.

Marvin rubbed a lot of people the wrong way in this house.

And a lot of people have had enough.

However, I walked him to the door and held his hand.

Because I know that whoever walks out the door this week

is part of a jury.

Thank you.

I'll holler at you.

Have a six pack waiting for me, man.

Yeah, baby.

Bye!

[dramatic music]

Why's he got to be hating on me?

I saved myself.

What can I do?

Today as he walked out of the house,

Marvin just happened forgot to give Diane a little hug.

It seemed as though Marvin might have been

trying to send Diane a message.

You know, he was going to be pissed at me if I--

if I didn't use it.

He was going to be pissed at me if I do use it.

God, why me?

I didn't put myself up on the block next to him.

Because Marvin loves to hate you, Diane.

It wasn't my choice.

He hates me because I won't give him the damn time of day.

I guess me not trying to keep Marvin in the house hurt

him really bad.

And what can I do?

I'm not going to lose sleep over it.

He did take it like a man and walked out.

No arguments or nothing.

Oh yeah, I know that.

I just felt that he was a wild card in this game,

that he was a threat to me, myself, and I.

[rock music]

JULIE: Congratulations, Nakomis After eight questions,

you are the new Head of Household.

I won.

And I didn't want to.

But it's better than if Cowboy won it.

On the block three times.

Head of Household three times.

[laughter]

Lucky number three, right?

Nakomis won HOH for her third time.

I'm happy for her.

Karen's happy for her.

Cowboy's probably upset.

And he has yet to win HOH.

Nice job, Cowboy.

Good job.

I wanted to win HOH.

I'm very homesick.

I really would love a picture of my beautiful fiance and son.

My brain just crapped out on me.

As much as I am in fear of the position of HOH,

this would have been a good time for me to have it.

When I see somebody else getting ready to hit it,

it makes me want to hit it fast.

Nakomis and myself made a little pact, you could say.

If we ever won HOH, we wouldn't put each other up.

Oh definitely.

There is a great possibility that I

could go up on the block.

Because we are on two different sides of this game.

So a part of me thinks I'm safe, and

the other part says I'm not.

I've done the hardcore promises

with both Diane and Karen.

So I can't put them up on the block.

So this week I'm going to have to put Cowboy up on the block.

Cowboy's the next one on his way out.

And I felt that Nakomis should not have

to nominate her half brother.

It's going to be really hard for me to put up Michael.

I've kept him safe whenever I was HOH.

But I don't know if I'm going to be able to do it.

In a perfect world, I would love to see

you and Diane up on the block.

I would have to win the golden veto.

Mhm.

Save you from you this week.

That'd be the best thing now.

Diane unpacked her bags.

So that is a sign of you and I going up on the block.

With Nakomis winning the HOH competition, it's bad for me

really big time.

Because Nakomis and Karen are super tight.

It's pretty much a sure shot that I'm going

to be on the nomination block.

HOH room time!

[ska music]

Ooh, I got another picture of my mom.

Nakomis has won HOH for her third time in the game.

Quite frankly, it's getting a little boring.

They're like, what the hell do we put in Nakomis's room now?

We don't got anything left.

Ooh.

That's me and my sister.

Aw, they look so cute.

Nakomis had a great picture with her and her sister.

Oh my god, look it, you look--

you look hot as hell.

Nakomis has got a couple of pictures.

And it's always good to see my other sister.

All I can say, looks runs in the family.

She got her food.

She got her CD.

Oh yeah, Nine Inch Nails.

Blah, blah, blah, whatever.

Next.

Well, girl, congratulations.

Thank you.

This is Nakomis's third HOH.

So it just goes to prove that.

I think that Nakomis is a huge threat in this house.

It's nice you get it for more than a day.

Winning HOH this many times has all different kinds

of ramifications.

She may be making enemies.

[suspenseful music]

[dramatic music]

[knocks on door]

Can I talk to you?

Yeah.

I know this week you're in a tough position.

Yeah.

I kind of feel what's going to happen.

You have your alliance people, and you have me.

And you've got to do what you gotta do in this game.

Even if I put you up, I would give you the respect to put

you up on nomination day.

And I respect that.

Yeah.

I'd give you the chance to fight for it,

and not oh, it's veto happening, you're going up.

Because I really don't know what

it would come down to, with the voting situation.

It's a possibility that it's going to be up in your hands.

And I just want you to know that I

don't want to leave this week.

And I really hope I'm not the one to leave this week.

Yeah.

She's got a hard decision to make.

Do I choose my alliance, or do I choose my long-lost brother?

I do want to say, it's just great to be--

make it this far with you.

And I feel that there will be times outside the house

we'll be able to talk.

And we've made it this far, and I think it's awesome.

Definitely.

Both of us have put a great fight in this game.

And to make it this far, I think that our real fathers

should be proud.

I just want to tell you that if it does come to a tie,

you won't leave.

Thank you.

I appreciate that.

My feelings towards Cowboy have changed.

Now I respect him a whole hell of a lot more than I did.

He's taking it like a--

it's like a new Cowboy.

With that said, I'm going to go and make me a burger.

[dramatic music]

Would you rather be the one nominating him?

Or would you rather be the one--

- Voting him out? - Yeah.

I'm saying because if you feel weird about CB, we could--

it would be a risk, yeah.

Keep him and then--

No, but he wouldn't have anyone else to get up.

Nakomis has played a great game.

But my game has been completely different.

Every single thing and every step that I take in this house

has a strategical reason.

The more I think about it, see, I don't

have a commitment with Diane.

And it wasn't like, we'll get to the final four or five

at that time. - Final Five.

Final five. So--

Well, we're at the final five.

Right.

If Nakomis nominates Diane and Drew,

I'm going to be voting for Diane to leave and Drew to stay.

Diane, she's so emotionally irrational.

It freaks me out.

Do you feel weird about it, that she's blatantly lied to us?

Like, blatantly?

I haven't caught Diane in anything directly.

Last night.

I want everybody bleeding for that veto tomorrow.

If you win it, don't use it.

I'll fight for it.

But I will not use it.

I promise.

I promise.

I choose to save myself.

"I will not use that veto," and "don't you worry."

Yeah, good point.

"I'm using the veto."

Good point.

Diane, she'll tell us one thing.

And then something else will happen.

And then she's angry one second and buddy the next.

This is the time when you really have to start thinking

about who's going to jury, and who's going to be standing

next to you in the end.

I mean, we've made a commitment to her.

But it's been honored.

And we haven't lied to her.

I'm willing to do everything it takes to win that $,.

It's just my morals will like, grab my heart

and like, rip it to shreds every time that I like,

cross one of them.

So my morals need to be quiet this week.

[upbeat music]

Can you-- can you just--

Negative.

Balance?

Negative.

You seem like you kind of can.

Ah!

I'm always a kicking around kind of martial arts

type of person.

I do have the balance, you know, to do

kicks and stuff like that.

Hey, there you go.

Only in karate for two weeks.

I was in it for like, a couple months.

I was only in a couple weeks, because I never had the time.

Were you a white belt?

A green belt?

The very first.

I doubt Cowboy's a martial artist of any sorts.

My mom's a black belt, so I know how karate kicks go.

My mom's a black belt.

You're kidding me?

Yeah, she is.

If I was in a fight, could I use a little of it?

Maybe.

I do got a strong powerful kick.

There is a possibility that I could kick somebody down.

[laughs]

Roundhouse.

I think that if Cowboy had to whip out his karate

in a dark alley, I think that the snot

would be beaten out of him.

[grunting]

[suspenseful music]

Listen, listen, here's what I'm thinking.

You get put up tomorrow, Veto comes around.

If I win Veto, I'm safe.

And I can save you too.

Karen has to go on the block.

Put her out.

Right.

So basically, what I'm saying--

Oh, let's do it.

Here's what I'm saying-- me--

Oh, that'd feel awesome.

Drew, you got to understand though, you got to let me win.

Because I'll take you off the block, and I'm safe too.

Totally will.

So it's Karen, Cowboy on the block.

Me and you, but Karen.

That takes away Karen and Nakomis.

I'm totally down with that.

I didn't even think about that.

Here's the-- listen--

I'm--

You're such a smart girl.

I'm thinking, who cares?

If you and Cowboy stay on the block, Cowboy's gone.

These two girls are going to pick each other over me.

And I cannot let that happen.

Because I think they feel like they

have all the power in the world right now in the house.

And it's a little bit scary.

I need to win the Veto.

What's Nakomis thinking?

She's thinking-- I don't know.

She's thinking you're on her side, right?

Yeah, yeah.

So maybe it's not good if you talk to me.

Don't sleep with me tonight, obviously.

Don't fight with Cowboy.

I'll sleep out with Cowboy.

OK.

It makes it look like you're kicking me out,

you're strong-willed, you're the woman that's with the girls.

Hopefully, when it came down to--

came down to it, that Diane would side on my side.

Because I think that Diane sees Nakomis and Karen

as very tight right now.

After the Veto competition, we'll

know what's going to go down.

And then it does not matter.

Me and you can be normal.

Right.

Because they know what's coming.

We've made it pretty far, both you and I, being here.

[laughs]

So obviously it's been working.

We've made it this far together.

We're going to make it the rest of the way.

Listen, what if they put you and me up?

Then we're screwed.

I don't think they're going to make

that decision just by seeing us in a hammock together.

They might.

Oh my god.

They might.

Hey--

[laughs] hey!

You are paranoid!

[dramatic music]

We still have a chance, you know.

Oh yeah.

Both of you, you both could be here next week.

Not both of us.

Yeah, there's a chance.

I need Drew in this game.

And what better thing to do than put Cowboy on our side,

so that makes three verses two.

I'm going to try my best to make it happen too.

[laughter]

You got a favorite, girl?

No, I'm serious, Cowboy.

Do you know something we don't know?

Possibly.

I will try my best to keep you--

to keep you here and him here, both of you here.

I think she knows something.

I'll explain it to you, i suppose, now.

OK, we all know Karen's not going onto the block today.

We're up. Honestly, we're up.

OK, let's get real.

There's a chance me and you could go up,

and you could be safe.

Right.

There's a chance for everybody.

OK, I'm seeing what you're saying.

So you're saying, OK--

say-- OK, say, if y'all both go up on the block,

of course, I win the Veto.

I still take him off, put Karen up there.

You two keep me in.

OK, now Cowboy, let me put it in my perspective.

You two go up on the block, I win the veto.

I'm safe.

I save him.

Me and him keep you here.

Or you save Cowboy.

Doesn't matter.

Or I save Cowboy, and me and you keep Drew here.

You would do that?

I would do that.

That's what I want to do.

That would be awesome.

That would

Does that not sound like a good plan?

I would love you forever.

[laughter]

Cowboy--

I love you so much, I could just give you a kiss right now.

You know, I told you a miracle could happen, Drew.

Yep.

Screw them, man.

They're acting like, c*ck about it too, is what I think.

I mean, they're obviously in the power position right now.

Well yeah, you're right.

We can turn this around.

We can.

And we will.

[suspenseful music]

[slow rock music]

That didn't look like it felt very good.

He runs into the walls all the time, dude.

He just ran his body right into that rock.

I hate fish.

But we got some-- we got some pretty

interesting fish in there.

Here comes the sl*t fish.

We've named all the fish.

Is it Dory or Darcy?

Dory.

This guy's not going to come in to flirt with you.

Dory backed right up into his a*s.

Dory, she's the one that looks like Dory of of "Finding Nemo."

Josh is the little orange one with the dots.

Mohawk is the light-blue one with the Mohawk on it.

Mohawk travels around tank, trying to get

it on with the other fish.

sl*t fish.

You're back.

I'm coming back.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah.

Big Mother-Trucker is the really big shark.

Poor Josh. and Big Mother-Trucker,

they both get like, porned up on by Mohawk.

It's like, the dirty kid at school

that humped everybody's leg.

[laughter]

I think so.

I really do.

Well, there he goes.

Look at the way he shakes his little body.

The poor fish doesn't look like it has any friends,

and all it does is annoy the rest of the fish.

Kind of like Marvin did in the house.

[r&b music]

Oh, no!

No!

Maybe we should name that fish Marvin.

Always starting trouble, always humping

everybody else in the tank.

oh my god!

You did not just say that.

Who needs porn when you can watch fish hump each other?

Fish.

[laughter]

[dramatic music]

As the number of houseguests gets fewer and fewer,

your strategy does tend to change a lot.

It went from, let's get the big, bad people out of the house, to

how can I make it to the final two?

I have like, a nervous, anxious feeling

in my stomach right now.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to be going up on the block.

It's definitely very bittersweet.

I guess more bitter than sweet.

Almost cutting it to the bone.

There's no telling what Nakomis would actually

do until it actually happens.

I would love for her to put maybe Diane up against Drew.

Never feel safe when nomination

ceremonies came around.

It's so hard telling what could happen right now.

People say one thing.

They can always do another.

Somebody's going out.

But we all realize that it's a game.

So may the best person win.

It's a great feeling right now.

Calm before the storm.

[suspenseful music]

OK, guys it's time for the nomination ceremony.

[suspenseful music]

Wow, insane.

OK, guys, this is the nomination ceremony.

You know, it's great being here with you guys.

Final five.

This was my hardest-at-first, but easiest-in-the-end

decision that I've ever made.

You know, each of you guys are all responsible,

respectable people.

And I know that y'all won't take it

personally, or take offense to anything

that happens here today.

And I respect all of y'all for that.

That being said, I'll pull the first key, reveal who is safe.

So here we go.

Diane, you're safe.

Karen, my love, you are safe.

I nominated Michael and Drew for eviction big shocker,

I know.

[laughter]

But-- breathe, guys.

It's gotten to the point where it's no longer personal.

It's no longer, you know, you pissed me off here,

you pissed me off there.

It's may the best man win.

You know, none of y'all like, stabbed me

in the back or broke my arm or shoved

me down a flight of stairs.

So it's just one of those things.

May the best man win.

You know, wish y'all luck for the veto.

Thanks.

Thanks.

And with that being said, everyone

hang your keys on the wall.

And the meeting is now adjourned.

Being on the block with one of my fellow horsemen, it's hard.

But we're not giving up.

We're hoping to ride again next week.

I need to save Drew.

Drew needs to be off the block.

Drew is the only person that's on my side.

So I need Drew in this game.

It's not over with for me or Michale.

We'll see how good of a player I am.

Dear Lord-- Cowboy and I are honestly hoping for a miracle

that we're here next week.

There is a chance.

There's a huge risk in this procedure of this veto I

would love to make it to the final four with Drew,

and fight for it.

So I need to win the veto.

You guys understand that.

I need to win the veto.

I'm just saying, the only way that both of you can stay in

is if I win the veto.

It's the only way.

So if there's any way that you see that I can win it,

like, if Karen and Nick are doing bad at it,

and then the three of us are still in the game, both of you

got to throw it.

That's the only way you can both stay in the game.

But you're going to honestly say if you won the veto,

you would actually take Drew or myself off--

One of you guys off the block.

Yeah.

Regardless of what they would be saying?

- yeah. - To you?

Yep.

That's what I want to do.

So it doesn't matter if I took Drew or you off the block.

Right, right, right,

One of you will be coming off the block.

They're probably going to take it less as harsh if I take

Drew off the block than you.

Than me, because then they'll know something's up.

Right.

What they won't see coming is me and Drew

keeping you in over Karen.

That's what they won't see coming.

And that'll happen that day.

It won't hurt to Karen because she won't know

it till she walks out the door.

And the only promise I made was a--

the only this I did with anybody was to Nakomis.

So putting out Karen doesn't hurt

me, as far as my promise goes.

But if the veto competition is one of those things where

we can't throw it and you've got to try your best,

try your best to win it.

There's nothing you can do.

If you win it, I'm going up on the block against Drew.

And Drew is probably going to go home.

I think it is a good plan if it works.

Do I trust them?

I think right now it's worth taking a little risk.

This game is about risk.

Yeah, I know, man.

Oh, this has been one hell of a game, dude.

You're telling me.

[electronic music]

I really hope, you know, this is the miracle that Drew

and myself's been praying for.

And if it works, Drew and I will be

two happy men, two our of the four

horsemen in the final four.

[suspenseful music]

[dramatic music]

OK, guys, time for the veto competition.

This is it.

[men's church choir singing]

Dear Gracious God, Father, please

give us the strength that we need in this Golden Veto.

We know there's two of us on the block, and only one

getting the veto.

Let the best man win and just give us the strength to--

if one of us do win, both of us, regardless,

still does this game as men, and with honor.

your name, Lord, we do need a miracle, Lord.

We're doing this for our families.

And just guide us how you want us, Lord.

Not how we want, but how you want.

In Jesus's name we pray.

Amen.

Mhm.

Drew and I are really into our faith.

I really feel that there's a chance both of us

could get off the block this week.

That felt good.

I love you whatever happens.

II love you too, man.

What happens?

It's still the same, man.

[suspenseful music]

[electronic music]

OK, guys.

Pick a cage!

We walk outside.

And the first thing I see are five huge iron cages.

Like jail cells.

And in front of all five cages is a pile of junk.

It's different objects of games that we have played

throughout "Big Brother ."

OK guys, "Welcome to "Caged!"

If you thought that you could handle being locked

inside the "Big Brother" house all summer long,

"Big Brother" is testing us again.

Each of us will be locked inside our own cage.

The key that opens our cage is out of reach.

But within reach is items that will help us retrieve

the key that will set us free.

The first houseguest to unlock themselves

and flip their lightswitch on wins the Power of Veto.

Good luck, houseguests and remember,

the idea is to achieve fast time, and not hard time."

But everyone ready to go?

- Yeah! - Yeah!

All right, let's get in out cages, guys.

OK, let's cowboy up.

Let's do it.

[locks clicking]

Everybody locked up nice and tight?

Yeah!

OK, you guys, Ready!

Set!

Go!

[suspenseful music]

The nice part of the game was you

could share your objects with other people if you so choose.

Well, me and Drew are going to share.

And Cowboy even shared with us as well.

If Cowboy, Diane and I are going to make this happen,

we can use our three putters and stick them together.

That then Diane could somehow maneuver it through and hook

her key and pull it in.

Drew and Cowboy--

I understand Drew, but I don't understand Cowboy--

gave Diane their golf clubs.

It seemed very weird and very odd.

But you know, whatever.

[suspenseful music]

We started duct taping Diane-and-my putter together,

as strong as we could, as fast as we could.

And I was pretending I was working on my flamingo,

knowing I was not going to do anything.

There was an apron with a tie on it.

And I thought I could maybe compose some kind

of fishing-type device.

I'm looking over at Nakomis, and she's getting her

a little contraption out there.

And I'm like, oh great.

Now what if Cowboy loses?

And I'm going to feel horrible if Cowboy's

gone this week because he gave his putter to us.

Diane was all the way on the end.

And she was kind of out of my peripheral vision.

So I couldn't really see what I was doing.

And I was really paying more attention to what I was doing.

I started to throw it across.

It was a little bit flimsy, so I pulled it back real quick.

Got to do it tighter.

Got to do it tighter.

I did glance over.

Nakomis was doing good.

My little concoction-o-matic was a golf club taped to a hula

hoop, taped to a flamingo.

[suspenseful music]

On the key ring there were about six keys.

And you had to find which one opened the lock.

[suspenseful music]

I'm looking at Diane, and she's going through her keys.

And I'm just thinking, please God,

please let her find that key before Nakomis gets it.

[suspenseful music]

[bell rings]

There's the winner!

- Diane won. - Holy mol !

Woo!

I didn't even get to throw mine.

What did she do?

I did look down at Nik and Karen.

And I think both the girls looked confused,

if more than anything.

This.

Two golf stacks.

Golf clubs!

Oh.

She did really good.

She's a creative little cat.

OK, Diane, since you're the best at breaking out of jail--

Jail.

We

- It is your veto, once again. - It has happened.

This is great.

Yea, thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Yea!

Drew and myself, hopefully we will both escape

the block this week.

We're just praying that Diane's true to her word.

Diane has breakout experience.

Thank you, thank you.

I'm not going to take full credit for that.

But I won the power of veto today.

I did accomplish my goal.

Your family would be proud.

My parents would be so proud, yes.

I'm pretty happy.

Karen was happy.

I think that I'm still in the clear right now.

I don't think that I have anything to worry about.

Thank you.

I know that Diane and myself had problems

at the beginning of the game.

We didn't really get along.

But we know that we need each other in this situation.

And we'll fight for the final four.

So have you talked to her about das veto?

Not yet.

I was under the impression it wasn't going to happen.

Unless somebody wants to play God.

[suspenseful music]

Oh yeah.

It's definitely a possibility that Diana could use the veto.

Because we're all here for ourselves.

And so is Diane.

So I will never feel % safe in this house.

I'll find out, I guess.

And then I'll do back up.

That's probably the smarter way.

I think they know what's going on.

Don't you think?

But it's too late.

what are you going to do when Karen

says hey, are you voting Cowboy out, what are you going to say?

I don't know yet.

You know that's going to come.

Nakomis and Karen are very intelligent.

I don't know if they know what's going on yet.

But they've had to have looked down and seen the three

of us working together.

Why did Cowboy give you his golf club?

She was like, Cowboy, let me see your-- let

me see your golf club.

Here you go, man.

Dude, give me both these golf clubs.

Come on now, seriously.

So what's your veto speech going to be like tomorrow?

I've been thinking a lot about it.

I don't know what to say.

I have absolutely no clue what Diane is going to do, you know?

[suspenseful music]

[slow piano music]

I'm just-- I can't--

like, I'm-- I am struggling with promises, you know?

I made two promises in this game.

One to you, and one to Drew.

The promise made to Drew was, you know,

if he was ever put on the block, I

promised I would take him off.

But at the same time, you know, I'm

throwing around scenarios that I could possibly tell him

to go ahead and stay up there.

Like, I've broken his trust so many times.

And he's like, I don't trust you.

I don't trust you.

It's just that Drew is so fragile right now.

I just-- I don't know what to do with him.

See, but I mean, here's the thing.

Like, Drew's put you up on the block once.

And then he's put me up twice.

Yeah.

And that's what Karen's--

Once after veto.

I know.

And that's like, pretty much saying, you know, screw off.

If I have to risk my relationship with it,

I don't want to do it.

See, but Diane, I hate to tell you this.

But if he's going to take something personal

that you do in a game--

Yeah, I know.

It's like, you know, whatever you want to do.

But like, it's just Cowboy's c*ck,

and how much he's been clinging to you

two makes Karen just a little bit nervous.

Yeah, I know.

It's just I have to make sure that it's not going

to be a tie, and that it's not going to be anything

else that Cowboy leaves.

Oh yeah.

If Drew gets taken off the block,

it's not going to be a tie.

Right.

It's definitely not going to be a tie.

And I hate to see Karen nervous.

Well, It's just like--

But I can understand.

--she trusts y'all.

And she's just worried that something

weird's going to happen.

No.

I trust Diane.

We have trust.

But you know, this could only go so far in the game.

I know Karen's safe either way.

I mean, she can sleep tonight.

She can sleep. - Yeah.

I don't want her losing sleep over this stupid game.

As much as I love these people,

people are going to have to get hurt in this game.

I need to do what I need to do to win this game.

All right, guys, it's time for the veto ceremony.

Diane could be playing us/ she could be telling the truth.

Hopefully she's not a true liar, and she's going to help us out.

That's going to be a hard challenge to escape.

But I think that I trust Diane and Drew,

and I will be escaping the block this week.

You guys, it is the veto ceremony again.

Drew and Cowboy, you've been nominated for eviction.

However, I have the power of the veto.

And if I choose to, I can save one of you off the block.

So like we all know, I figured now's your chance

to give me a reason why you think I

should save either one of you.

Go for it.

Thank you.

Well, I guess I just wanted to start off by saying this

is my first time on the block.

And I mean, obviously, I would love for you to use the Golden

Veto on me, to save me.

But I think, Diane, that you and I

have done a good job of keeping personal and game separate.

So I want you to know that don't feel like I'm pressuring you.

I want you to know that whatever decision you make,

I'm going to respect it in the end.

So that's my piece.

Diane, if I was in your situation,

I would honestly take the man that took me off once in this

came before.

So I would-- there would be no hard feelings

if you took this man right here off, because he deserves it.

All right.

[suspenseful music]

I'd like to start by saying, um, that--

I need to be here for my own personal reasons at home.

And there are things that I need to do to further

myself along in this game.

Cowboy, I completely respect you so much now, more than I did so

in the beginning of this game.

We've talked about this.

We did not like each other in the beginning of this game.

Now we do.

Drew, I wish that people would understand what

kind of relationship we had.

But I'm not trying to prove it to anybody, how

much we care about each other.

And I've made a few promises in this game, a few

distinct promises in this game.

And one of them was to you.

I do choose to exercise the power of my veto.

[suspenseful music]

And I choose to save you.

So it's only fair.

Here.

Thank you.

Nakomis, I obviously have vetoed one of your nominations.

Is there anybody on the couch that you would like

to nominate in that position?

[laughter]

I guess since there's only one other person on the couch,

that Karen, I'm going to have to hawk

you up onto the game block.

So the meeting is adjourned.

Being on the block, this is the worst.

Diane could go back on her word.

I don't know.

There is a possibility that could

be the one to leave this week.

And I hate to lose.

I am in an awesome position, I'm not going to lie.

But I have to make some hard decisions, and lie to people.

It could come back to bite me in the a*s.

But if it gets me to the end of this game,

that's what I have to do.

If Cowboy stays in the house, I'm probably leaving next week.

So I'm just going with the safest bet.

And I'm going to try to get Michael out.

I'm sorry, Cowboy, it's time to turn up the heat.

No hard feelings, you know?

Diane has lied so many times in this game.

So I really want to just grab Diane

and pin her against the wall and spell it out for her, game on.
