[bunniefuu]

JULIE: Three months ago, houseguests

walked through these doors to compete for

the half-million dollar prize.

Now, only two remain.

Their fate lies in the hands of the seven-member jury,

who tonight will vote live to crown

the winner of Big Brother .

The finale starts now.

[applause]

NARRATOR: This season-- [record scratches]

This-- [record scratches]

This season on Big Brother , houseguests

moved in to compete in an intense power struggle

for half a million dollars.

To Big Brother .

[cheering]

NARRATOR: On day two, the first shocking twist was discovered.

I've got something to tell you.

Huh?

We have the same father.

This really means a lot to me.

NARRATOR: A powerful alliance was formed.

The Four Horsemen all the way.

I love this power.

I love this power.

NARRATOR: And they quickly took control of the house.

This my house.

I just want to kick the party guests out one at a time.

I said you're not dumb and neither are we.

That's all I said.

You better win HOH next week--

Because you're gone.

NARRATOR: The girls formed their own alliance

to battle against The Horsemen

It's kind of becoming a battle of sexes.

It's actually becoming girls against guys.

NARRATOR: Drew stunned The Horsemen by nominating

an ally for eviction.

Uh, Holly, you've been nominated by me.

Drew, put out a chick that was our ally.

He's an idiot.

NARRATOR: And the tables turned.

Jase and Scott, I nominated you two.

JULIE [voiceover]: Scott, you are evicted

from the Big Brother house.

Girls rule!

NARRATOR: With The Horseman fractured,

a second twist shocked the house.

JULIE: One of your housemates has been playing this game

with an identical twin.

sh**t.

[screaming]

NARRATOR: And for a brief moment,

the group was united in the goal to evict Jase.

After the veto is used, Jase goes on the block

with no possibility for parole.

Goodbye, my love.

[cheering]

NARRATOR: The peace was short lived when

the twins went on a power trip.

This whole-- this whole week is gonna be all about Adria.

NARRATOR: And turned on their own.

I choose to evict Will from the house today.

If karma is a boomerang, I'll see you sooner than later.

NARRATOR: But their decision came back to haunt them.

I nominated Natalie and Adria for eviction.

NARRATOR: Natalie, Adria, you are evicted

from the Big Brother house.

NARRATOR: The girls then set their sights

on the men of the house.

We both want Marvin gone next week.

NARRATOR: But worried about the bond between Karen and Nakomis,

Diane switched sides.

I will try my best to keep both of you here.

Thanks for backdooring me.

[yells]

NARRATOR: Michael finally won his first competition

and chose Diane over his own sister.

I do choose to use the veto to save you, Diane.

JULIE [voiceover]: Nakomis, you have been evicted

from the Big Brother house.

NARRATOR: Pitting himself against Drew and Diane

in the final three--

Cowboy up!

NARRATOR: Drew prevailed as the ultimate head of household.

JULIE [voiceover]: Congratulations, Drew.

NARRATOR: Forcing him to make a difficult choice.

I gotta choose a girlfriend and a best friend.

At this time, I choose to evict you, Diane.

Uh huh.

NARRATOR: Now, only Drew and Michael remain.

Two Horsemen.

In the final two, baby.

[laughing]

NARRATOR: It's been days of intense competition,

vicious betrayals--

You looked at me like I stuck a dagger in your heart.

NARRATOR: Close bonds, heartache, and triumph.

[cheering]

NARRATOR: Twelve houseguests have departed empty handed,

and tonight, the decision rests in the hands of the jury.

Who will be crowned the winner and walk away with $,?

Find out now on the live season finale of Big Brother .

[theme music]

JULIE: Good evening.

I'm Julie Chen.

Welcome to the season finale of Big Brother .

Eighty-two days ago, men and women

set foot inside the Big Brother house with one goal in mind--

to walk out the front door three months later

half a million dollars richer.

Twelve of those houseguests have come and gone,

but for two, the dream remains alive.

Drew, the recent college graduate from Ohio,

and Michael, the security officer from Oklahoma.

Who will win Big Brother ?

The evicted houseguests who make up tonight's jury

have seen only select events that

include everyone in the house such as nomination

ceremonies and evictions.

Tonight, they will cast their votes live and determine

the winner of Big Brother .

But first, as the jury assemble to debate,

they had no idea who would be the last juror

and which house guests would be left in the final two.

Well, it's time for the last loser to join us.

Who do you think is gonna be?

At this point, [inaudible] a good and bad on any person

that you could throw out there.

So I think that whatever the will of the house

was, obviously we're about to see.

Maybe Cowboy wisened up, and it might be

Drew walking down the stairs.

But you know you never know.

OK, guys.

[cheering]

I know you guys were hoping this was Cowboy--

That's what's up!

But it's me!

You guys were [inaudible]

Diane, you know what?

I never lit this before, but because your a*s is down here

I think I'm a light it up in your honor.

[cheering]

You guys, we got lots to talk about.

And we are dying to hear!

I'm so glad.

I let-- now I know how everybody feels you know.

You don't know what's coming until it comes,

and then bam here you are.

So I'm happy to see you guys.

Did you have any warning?

Ah, no.

It was the shot-- the biggest shock of my life.

They played the game where they walk around smiling--

Cowboy wasn't involved.

This is all Drew.

Ugh.

You know I guess it's a good move on his behalf,

but you know it hurts.

And I think he's gonna pay the price for that.

So we'll see what happens.

Well, baby, I think you got played like a spade.

Well, I don't want to sit here and talk about Drew in that

fashion because I think that we all have different game--

viewpoints--

What-- why you always defending

Drew a*s is what I wanna know.

What's up with you and Drew? - It's not defending Drew.

Well, will you please tell me--

will you please damn tell me what the hell's up

with you and damn Drew?

Every time you open your mouth, it's something about damn Drew.

What's the deal?

Drew and Diane's relationship should not be a key point

as to whether I'd choose Cowboy or Drew in this--

at this situation.

We're a jury.

We're here to not be jealous.

We're here to be just.

So what's your criteria for who should

get the money, Drew or Cowboy?

Cowboy-- Michael flew under the radar

through this whole game.

Everybody puppetted Cowboy all through this game.

He never stood on his own two feet,

and he just hid behind everybody all the way-- he got put

off and put off and put off.

That to me is not good game strategy.

Oh, I agree with everything Diane said.

Cowboy crawled up into Drew's behind and just sat there.

But I think that that sometimes might be part

of someone's strategy you know.

Cowboy I think he's--

I think he's overdoing it a little bit,

but I think that-- what if that is part of his strategy

to paint himself as the poor downtrodden cowboy hopefully

playing on heartstrings.

Drew slept through the game.

He hid in his bed with his face in a book,

and he slept through the game while

everything that was going on.

He just wanted to bring somebody to the end

that he felt like he could clobber.

So that kind of burnt me in the Drew factor.

How does it feel getting sold out by your brother?

Uh, that was something that I expected to happen.

I mean we don't talk.

Do you think he's a spineless, sorry loser or not?

No, I just--

I just think that he doesn't see blood as the same thing

that I do.

Blood is always thicker than water with me,

and with him it's vinaigrette.

I think that Cowboy played the game hard

in respect that he stayed true to two points

that I know he made.

Like, for example, his alliance with Drew,

I know for a fact he was dedicated that in the very end.

Same thing with Drew.

Drew was very honest with me, so it's

going to be a very tough decision,

but I can't make it personal for me.

Drew looked me in the face, and he lied.

He cut and dry lied.

He said I'm not voting you out, and he voted me out.

Cowboy was honest with everybody.

I don't-- I don't know of Cowboy lying to anybody

yet to my knowledge you know.

I haven't heard anything.

It does upset me that I feel like he hasn't done squat

throughout this whole game.

And that really upsets me, but he was honest.

He never lied to anybody.

He never lied to me.

Drew, you know, played a great game.

He was continuously winning competitions,

trying his hardest to win HOH.

You name it.

But he did lie to me.

Well, do you think it's possible to play the game

without lying to somebody?

Uh, I think that it is possible.

I think that it as--

it can take us as far as it can.

I think Nakomis did a-- played a very honorable game.

I'd personally rather be on the jury with my morals

and my ethics intact.

Drew did do more, but Cowboy didn't lie.

And I do think that honesty is a big part and--

I don't think Cowboy had enough sense to lie.

[laughing]

The one thing that I do respect about Cowboy

was that he always stood true with his alliances

or his friendships.

Drew did play a good game.

He fought hard.

He won competitions.

He did all of that good stuff.

But as far as Cowboy, Cowboy just rode the ride.

And I don't think that that's a very strong

way to play this game you know.

I will look at Drew and Cowboy both as their entire two

pieces on a game board, you know the strategic.

Whatever they did, that's what I want to look at in this game,

and I think that's fair to see how they play the game.

I think that we've all have such a hard decision

as we know ahead of us.

[scoffs] This is gonna be a hard decision.

JULIE: Drew or Michael, who will the jury choose to win

the half million dollar prize.

When we return, the final two plead

their case as to why they should be the winner of Big Brother .

[applause]

Welcome back to Big Brother .

The grand prize winner will be crowned after the jury

votes tonight live.

Who will they choose, Drew or Michael?

But first, each of the seven jury members

had an opportunity to question Drew and Michael one last time.

Hey, guys. It's Will.

- Hey! - Hey, Will.

Now listen.

You know I've got nothing but love for both of you.

And I am split / up here in the sequester house.

Now, Drew I want you to look at Cowboy,

and I want you to tell me, using strategical gaming reasons,

why he does not deserve to win this game.

Wow, this is rough.

Ugh!

Personal aside, Cowboy I feel as though I've had to make

more strategic decisions.

Some of them have helped you out along the way.

I was HOH four times now.

I just feel as though I played this game as a player.

I made stronger moves strategically than you, Cowboy.

I feel for those reasons, Will, that I

should be picked in the number spot instead of number .

Good answer.

Cowboy, hey.

It's Nat.

Hey.

And I want you to give me three very specific moves

that you made strategically to be where

you are today in that chair.

Obviously, you cannot play this game by yourself.

So being with The Four Horsemen I think that would be

a huge strategy in this game.

Winning the veto would be one.

And being myself, not being fake,

that would be a strategy move I did make in this game

by being myself.

Hey, Cowboy, this is Adria.

Hey, Adria.

For me, I need to know why you should

have my vote here at the end.

If I win, I would love to start me a dude ranch up.

And I want to give Chaisson you know the childhood

that I did not get to have.

'Course, I would love to have your vote, Adria, as a friend.

I think that in this game, I was very true to you,

and I know Drew was, too.

So you have a hard decision.

That was a good question though.

A little more out of it.

An answer.

All right, hardball questions, baby.

You know I don't play.

I know, man.

Early in the game, I distinctly remember you saying

that Diane was a trailer chick.

You wouldn't have anything to do with her outside of the game,

and you were more into Lori.

Do you think it's OK to emotionally use

and abuse somebody to further yourself in the game?

To be honest, Marvin, I don't remember saying that.

I'm gonna say I did not use or abuse Diane.

I will admit that I said Lori was an attractive woman.

I know for a fact that after the show's over with,

I'm totally looking forward to hanging out Diane.

And hopefully she does not hate me,

and I hope that she can put game and personal aside

and not hold that against me.

Question for world famous Cowboy.

You tried to vote me out three out of four times

I was on the block.

Is that because you are a r*cist liar or a lying r*cist?

You know in a way, I was hoping you would throw

a r*cist question towards me.

And I've been thinking about this.

I'm not r*cist.

The three out of the four times I've voted,

for one, you was going up against Savage and Jase.

And to me I made agreements with them before I

made agreements with you.

And the last time, I voted because you

was up against my sister.

Again, I've got two wonderful black nephews,

and I love every type of race--

Chinese, Japanese.

I'm not r*cist.

I would love to have a relationship with you

outside this game.

OK, thanks.

Appreciate that.

I heard what I needed to hear.

OK, here it is, Drew.

I feel directly misled by you.

And I just want to know why you couldn't look at me knowing

the kind of person I am and just kind

of burning me on the way out.

I just wanted to know why really.

All respect for you, I wish I would have said

it right to your face look, Karen,

there's a good chance of you going that week.

I think the four of us left in the house

with you all felt bad after you left.

Cowboy, all the times that I did

speak with you before I nominated

you, you never were surprised that you

got put up on the block.

You could have told me no any of those times.

Why didn't you?

I shouldn't have to--

I mean-- tell you that it's not OK.

I guess that's where I went wrong, and I'm sorry for that.

And you know hopefully you can forgive me.

Cowboy you're first.

OK.

Why do you think you deserve half

a million dollars over Drew next to you, game purposes only?

Of course, I-- you know--

I didn't win no HOH or nothing, but I tried every competition

left and right except one veto that I threw so you could save

Drew and myself in this game.

I have worked my butt off every competition,

and that's my answer.

OK, Drew.

You've talked about being the most honest person

in the world, but your goodbye message I didn't feel anything

heartfelt, and I kind of feel like you don't

feel the same way about me.

So I'm just curious where you stand there.

Um, I want you to know, Diane, that I've liked you,

and we-- it seemed like we hit it off since the beginning.

And I feel like I have feelings for you.

I tried to make that goodbye as heartfelt as I could.

It's-- I'm sorry if mine wasn't as heartfelt as you wanted

it to be, but it was the heart.

And I'll be honest, I can't wait to see you after this is over

with because hopefully that you still

feel the same way about me.

I think I should win Big Brother because I feel

that the first day I walked through that front door,

I play this game being myself.

I'm sorry, Marvin, you think I might be a r*cist,

and I'm not for no means.

Nakomis, again, I'm sorry.

You know it was because of my word,

and I still want to have a great relationship with you

outside of this house.

I feel that whatever decision you would make,

I will respect it no matter what.

And I do love y'all.

[sighs heavily] All right, guys.

I think that you should pick me for the $,.

I've played this game to the best of my ability.

I've been in situations where I've

had to take risks, make decisions,

make strategic decisions.

I made a decision that broke my heart.

And I respect whatever you guys do.

A decision is in your hands, and I just

know that if I was in your shoes that I

would be evaluating us on how we played

this game personal all aside.

Thank you.

So Drew thinks he played the game,

and Cowboy thinks that he should just

have the money because he's a cowboy and he's himself--

because he's just himself.

Obviously, Drew is vouching to be the most honest guy

in the world and apparently has lied to multiple of us,

including myself so--

But I'd like that one of them to say, OK, I want the money.

I'm here.

I want the money.

I came for the G's.

Give it to me.

JULIE: Tonight, the jury of seven evicted houseguests

will decide who will win Big Brother , Drew or Michael.

For now, let's go to the living room

and see how these two are feeling with less than an hour

remaining in the game.

Congratulations, Drew and Michael.

Thank you.

Thank you.

JULIE: Now the jury members had some pretty

tough things to say to both of you

as they considered their votes.

Drew.

Yes.

JULIE: How did it feel hearing some of the things

that they had to say?

It was definitely rough, and you

try to kind of figure out ahead of time

what they're gonna say to you.

But you know nothing can really prepare you

for what that was like, and you know I was just

glad to get that over with.

But you know it was definitely rough

and hopefully things aren't as bad as it sounded,

and hopefully some of those relationships

can be mended after the show.

JULIE: Michael, what surprised you most about some

of the jurors reactions?

More or less you know saying I didn't

do anything in this game.

And I had to do something because I am here.

So I was just myself, and that's how I had to play this game.

And if I win tonight, oh well.

If not, I still got G's, and they don't so--

[laughs]

JULIE: So na, na, na na, na, na.

Yeah!

JULIE: Drew.

Yeah.

JULIE: Who on the jury concerns you most?

For me, I guess Marvin because Marvin's questions were

just so below the belt. I felt like

and Cowboy felt the same way, so--

and we know that Marvin has a lot of say

when he's in front of a group.

So really he could actually sway the votes either way.

JULIE: Is that ditto for you, Michael?

Yes, ma'am, it is.

JULIE: All right.

Well, the jury will be voting live momentarily.

Good luck to you both.

Thank you.

Thanks.

JULIE: One by one, each evicted houseguest

lost their chance to win the half-million dollar prize.

But tonight, seven of them are on the jury

and all the power is in their hands.

Please help me welcome back from the Big Brother

jury house Will, Natalie, Adria, Marvin, Karen, Nakomis,

and Diane.

Next, the jury of seven will cast their votes live.

Will Drew or Michael be crowned the winner of Big Brother .

[applause]

Welcome back to Big Brother .

It's time for the jury to vote on the winner of

the half-million dollar prize.

Will they cast their vote for Drew, the recent college

graduate from Ohio, or will they vote for Michael, the security

officer from Oklahoma?

Jury members, welcome.

The power is in your hands.

Each of you has been given a bag.

Inside are two keys, each representing

a vote for either Drew to win the game

or Michael to win the game.

One by one, I'm going to ask each of you

to step up to the voting box.

Once you're there, you will be inserting

the key of the person you would like to see when Big Brother .

Without revealing who your vote is for,

you will have a chance to give a final statement

to the two finalists, and then you'll

be asked to cast your vote.

Drew, Michael, it's now time for the jury to cast their vote.

Adria, you're up first please.

Step up to the voting box.

Before you vote, what would you like

to say to Michael and Drew?

Drew, Michael, I just want to say that you guys are

both awesome, and there's no right or wrong way

to play this game.

Congratulations to you both.

This is a very hard decision to me,

so I wish you both good luck, and I think you both have

a bright future ahead.

So here it goes.

JULIE: Please cast your vote now.

Thank you, Adria.

Natalie, it's your turn.

Please step up.

Before you cast your vote, what would you like

to say to the two finalists?

Well, Drew and Cowboy, I'd like to say congratulations.

And I think this game is a game about commitment,

and it's about living the game daily and how you play it.

Both of you guys have been there,

and communication is key throughout this game.

So I wish you both good luck, and you both did great.

JULIE: Please cast your vote now, Natalie.

Thank you.

Have a seat.

All right, Karen, you're up next.

Come on down.

Before you cast, what would you like to say to these two guys?

OK, boys, thanks for making me miss the shopping spree.

[nervous laughter]

You know it's a really tough game,

and after my emotional retardedness cleared up,

you guys actually did play a really good game.

Both you played in your own way, and I consider

you both winners either way.

So here I go.

JULIE: Please cast your vote.

Have a seat.

Thank you, Karen.

All right, Marvin, come on down.

Julie, how are you?

JULIE: I'm doing well. How are you?

Exquisite.

JULIE: All right, before you put that key in,

what would you like to say?

Fellas, you know it ain't nothing personal.

You know I love both of y'all like play cousins.

Come on now.

But I'm tough like that.

But I got to, um, cast a vote for the person that I

really think deserves it.

Nothing personal.

JULIE: Go ahead and do it.

Thank you, Marvin.

All right, Diane.

It's your turn.

Come on down.

What would you like to say to Drew,

and what would you like to say to Michael?

[exhales deeply] Congratulations, guys.

You both deserve to be there.

Drew, I care about you more than anything in the world.

And I told you from day one, we'd keep it separate, Cowboy,

but you've never lied to me.

So with that said--

JULIE: Go ahead and cast.

Thank you, Diane.

All right, Nakomis.

It's your turn.

Before you cast your vote, what would you

like to say to your half brother,

and what would you like to say to Drew?

Well, guys, I just want to say congratulations.

You know y'all both did play good games obviously.

You're in the final two.

So you know, I just want you to know this is a hard decision,

and only one thing contributed to how I wound up voting.

JULIE: Go ahead and insert your key.

Thank you, Nakomis.

Thank you.

JULIE: And, Will, you are casting the last vote.

Come on down.

But before you--

Could it be the tiebreaker, Julie?

JULIE: It might just be, but before you cast it,

what would you like to say to the two finalists?

Guys, I just want to say that you're both been--

you've both are great friends, and I think

you both have such potential.

And I just want to say congratulations to you both.

And I want both of you to use your money

to make a difference.

So this is a very hard decision for me,

but I know I made the right one.

JULIE: Go ahead and cast.

Thank you, Will.

You can have your seat.

The votes are in.

Who will be the winner of the half-million dollar prize?

The reveal of the votes is just moments away.

But first remember Jase, Scott, Laurie, Holly, and Mike.

They've seen all the shows, heard all the talk,

and now for the very first time, they will reunite

with the jurors face to face.

It's a Big Brother reunion when we come back.

[applause]

Welcome back to Big Brother .

We are moments away from crowning

the half-million dollar winner.

But first, they didn't make it to the jury house.

Instead, the first five evicted houseguests

went home back to their lives and were

able to watch everything that went

on in the Big Brother house.

Now, they'll be reunited with the jury members.

This will be the first time everyone has been

together since being evicted.

Please help me welcome Mike, Lori, Scott, Jase, and Holly.

[applause]

What's up!

What's up! Good to see you.

Good to see you.

JULIE: Definitely the rowdiest crowd

we've had of all five seasons.

Now that the votes have been cast,

this will be the first time the jurors are

hearing details about the show.

Welcome all.

Thank, Julie.

JULIE: Jase, I want to start out with you.

I want to know what was it like to be evicted

and then watch what was happening in the house.

You know what?

While-- well, Holly and I, we watched Horsemen together.

We're together, and, Marvin, I felt bad for you

because the coup-- you know we were down.

We were cool, and you had to hang out with, like, Will

after we left, dude.

I know you were digging on him.

I was like, it looks like they're friends.

I know they're not, dude. I'll explain more later.

I gave you your props though. You know that, didn't you?

You know I love you, Marvin. I love you.

JULIE: Is that true? - Yeah.

JULIE: Should he-- should he have

been feeling sorry for you?

Yes, 'cause I was in hell.

[laughs]

My mom-- my mom's like--

I go Marvin ain't happy.

He's over there talking with Will

like, yeah, Will's my boy now.

He ain't your boy. Dude, we know this.

But you know I gave you your props in the house though.

You know that. - I gave you props, too.

- OK. - Completely.

All right.

Oh, Will, you'll know in a second, buddy.

JULIE: Now, Scott, I understand that you and Jase, who

were very close in the house, are not on speaking

terms because of Holly.

What happened?

Um, I don't know.

That's a good question for Jase.

I love Jase.

I love Holly.

I hope they know that.

They're here right now, so no hard feelings.

I hope that we can become friends.

JULIE: Did you make an effort to talk to Jase?

I tried to, and he didn't want to talk to me.

JULIE: Well, Jase, what do you have to say for yourself?

I don't have any--

JULIE: Is this a fight over a girl?

No! Absolutely not.

Yes, it is.

Yes, it is.

Savage knows.

Savage knows.

Dude, he crumbled our alliance because he was like,

he saw us kiss.

JULIE: Two stories here.

We could a been rocking.

It could have been different.

It was not even a big deal.

Scott, you're shaking your head.

I backed Drew up % you know.

I took a side, and I believed Drew.

And I'm sorry I didn't take Jase's side.

Marvin knows. Marvin was out.

Marvin was out in the yard. Marvin knows.

Marvin knows. They kissed.

It's over.

JULIE: Marvin, OK, you want to mediate here?

Um, it was just feeling like Savage was feeling for Holly,

but I don't know if he was thinking it was a game

thing where Jase was getting out his head

because Jase was getting out of his head with Holly.

And I think it was a game thing--

It was The Horsemen and you and Holly, Marvin.

Yeah, exactly.

And the rest of these others.

You know the evil twins and stuff.

Yeah. JULIE: Holly.

- Yes. - Yeah.

JULIE: We all saw in the house--

Um hmm.

JULIE: You and Diane did not get along.

Oh.

JULIE: How about now?

Now that you've been out of the house,

what are your feelings towards Diane?

Well, actually, I was genuine to Diane in the house,

but she wasn't to me.

So--

JULIE: Are you still mad?

Um, I really don't care to, like,

have any type of friendship or anything, but I don't--

you know I feel bad of what happened in the game with her.

I do feel that kind of sucks but karma you know.

And you know I told Jase when I gave him that cat if it wasn't

lucky for him to give it to the person

that he doesn't want to win.

So you burnt Nat going out third-- third to last.

JULIE: Diane, how do you feel?

You want to defend yourself here?

Yeah, as much as everybody here loves you guys,

we really do I promise, Holly you're just--

I just-- you know you're just--

I mean-- JULIE: Spit it out.

I'm sure you're great, but you're not the type person

I would like hang out with. You're just not.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I just felt that in the house we did share clothes.

We-- you know we slept on the floor.

You wouldn't take my clothes off!

That's right.

Exactly.

Well, she wore some of my stuff, too, you

know my shoes and clothes or whatever,

and we like slept on the floor together.

And I felt we had kind of like a cool friendship or whatever,

but she never was friends with me.

JULIE: All right, well, we'll see.

I'm over it.

I don't need-- I have plenty of good girlfriends so--

JULIE: I'm glad you're over it.

Mike, what do you think--

The Don.

JULIE: The Don.

What do you think these jurors should know about the game

that they weren't privy to?

What information do you think they should be aware of?

Um, That there's a ton of stuff.

They got a whole season to catch up on.

And I'm sure family members taping it for them,

but I think it might have been Karen backstabbing

absolutely everybody. - Oh!

I'm down with you. I'm down with you.

Absolutely everybody.

JULIE: How so, and you get to defend yourself.

How did Karen backstab everybody in the house?

Bring it.

She had no loyalty to nobody and no--

That's not true.

I was loyal to the end.

It's on TV.

Not true.

Here's Karen.

No [inaudible] monotone voice, spaceship.

JULIE: Go ahead.

Defend yourself.

Why are they accusing you of being a backstabber?

I don't know.

I stuck to my principles so hard that it got me ousted.

I was so loyal to a fault. I don't know

what you guys were watching.

I'll have to go home and watch before I start

defending myself because they have information

that I don't have. - [inaudible] to watch.

Go ahead.

Will, I can't wait for you to watch.

She had the chance to the veto on me,

and I wasn't part of the merry club alliance,

so you know I would say she probably--

But you ousted Will.

He was our alliance, too.

I know, but you're talking about full out loyalty.

I just don't see.

I hear what Don's saying.

But I--

I'm sorry.

I told her--

when she chose me, I said if you pick me,

I'm not going to be able to use it.

No, you would threaten that house,

you know just playing the game.

[laughing]

No, I was getting through my cookies.

JULIE: I want to set the record straight with Scott here.

Were you in an alliance, and if so,

what was the name of that alliance?

I was in the famous Four Horsemen alliance.

Four Horsemen alliance.

JULIE: That consisted of?

It consisted of my friend Jase,

awesome Cowboy, Drew, my brother, and Jase,

and Santa Monica Band Boys.

JULIE: What about the Santa Monica Band Boys?

Marvin was in that one!

[interposing voices]

I love you, man, but you were a pawn the whole time.

Oh, dude, I knew that.

And you were, too.

And you see where you sitting.

JULIE: Marvin, are you surprised to hear that this Santa Monica

Band Boys alliance that you thought you were in

was really not an alliance at all?

Oh, I knew it wasn't.

Especially after the Don told you?

Yeah, I knew it wasn't, but if that--

The Don, was he even on the show?

[interposing voices]

See Jason already won, so I had to find

a way to get in the group.

Hey, I'm down with you fellas, you know what I'm saying.

So when Jase gave me a pass the first week,

so I didn't go out the loser like The Don first week.

Marvin had a brilliant plan, the be the sixth man out plan

or whenever you went out to get me out,

and they totally backstabbed you.

Yeah.

I was like-- 'cause I rooting for-- soon as I was out,

then I was rooting for you all the way.

Yeah, I appreciate that.

And Cowboy. JULIE: Lori--

- [inaudible] - Hi, Julie.

JULIE: Hi there, Lori.

There were a lot of lies told in the house.

Yeah.

JULIE: Who do you think told a lie about you?

Oooh, Hi, everyone.

[greetings]

I miss you guys.

You know I don't think that you, Marvin,

meant anything intentional.

But I just hope that you understand

now that I'm not a paid actress, not a very, very rich person--

What?

What!

That could a been you know you were feeding people that line.

I had to do that, baby.

I had to get you off the show.

I understand.

And that's-- I mean I totally understand,

but I thought that that probably was the biggest lie as far

as what someone had told on me.

JULIE: And finally, Mike, you probably

knew more about this game than anyone coming in.

In your opinion, looking at this jury of seven, who was

the best player strategically?

I have to say Diane.

Diane was-- knew what she was doing early on.

And she screwed up the last week,

but you know what are you going to do?

People make mistakes when emotions get involved,

and I think that's what happened to her.

JULIE: All right, thank you.
