[bunniefuu]

Julie: after a summer of temptation, romance, conflict

And tears, three houseguests remain, but only one will walk

Away with the $, grand prize.

Welcome to the live two-hour season finale of "big brother."

[Cheering and applause] announcer: this season on

"Big brother," with three power pairs in the top eight, the

Showmance, the nomance, and the h* h* h* mance, paul perfectly

Aligned himself with each couple.

You both have watched so much in the game, it's like watching

My children grow.

It's a team effort, dude.

I said that from day one.

Announcer: deciding his true loyalty was to joshmas --

I need to pick people I can beat with jury votes, and josh

And christmas are not terrible options.

Announcer: -- paul got everyone to take shots at each

Other.

I don't have to get any blood on my hands and I'm absolutely

Announcer: first jason took out the silver fox.

I have decided not to use the power of veto.

Julie: matt, you are evicted from the "big brother"

House.

Announcer: next christmas clipped the cowboy.

Unfortunately, at this time, I have to vote to evict jason.

Announcer: then paul ensured raven flew out next.

Julie: raven, you are evicted from the "big brother"

House.

Announcer: with only five remaining, everyone trusted

Paul.

Why are we the best team ever in the world?

Announcer: but josh was starting to have second

Thoughts.

He's playing comparable to vanessa russo, even dan.

He has worked this whole house.

Announcer: and he even considered taking a shot.

I love paul, but I have the separate personal and I got to

Play the game.

Announcer: but in the end, paul, josh, and christmas stayed

Loyal to each other.

Together they ended the gamer's game.

I'm so sorry, alex, from the bottom of my heart, but I vote

To evict you.

Announcer: then took out the last one on their hit list.

Kevin, I'm sorry, I vote to evict you.

Announcer: with only the potty mouth, the the fa la la

Lunatic, and the meatball remaining, the stage was set for

Now after a summer of confrontations --

Leave this room, dude.

You did it on live tv.

You are a coward.

You're a coward.

You told me you were going to pull one of us down.

I don't remember saying that.

Oh, my god, you are such a punk [bleeped], dude.

[Humming circus music] yeah, join the concert, baby.

You want the bang pans, josh, bang pans.

Hug it out, hug it out.

Announcer: romance.

Want to make out?

Oh, wow.

You just kissed me.

Makes me all super proud to be your boyfriend.

Announcer: an epic competition.

No.

No, no, no, no.

Jason!

Oh, my god.

Announcer: it all comes down to this: who will become

The final head of household, and who will make it to the final

Two?

Houseguests have departed.

Tonight nine must make a difficult decision.

Who will be crowned the winner of "big brother" and walk away

With the $, prize, and who did america vote as their

Favorite houseguest?

Find out tonight live on the two-hour season finale of "big

Brother."

Wait!

Are you serious?

I'm excited.

[Cheering and applause] julie: good evening.

I'm julie chen.

Welcome to the live season finale of "big brother."

Christmas, josh, and paul, they were an improbable trio who

Worked together to send every single member of the jury

Packing, but tonight it's every man and woman for themselves as

They head into battle for the final h.o.h. This summer and the

Chance to be crowned the winner of "big brother."

So who will reign as the final head of household?

Who will be evicted?

And who will walk out of the house $, richer?

We'll find out tonight live.

But first, when last we saw the houseguests, they were battling

It out in magical, rainbow unicorn wonderland.

Well then.

I can't breathe.

Here I go.

One leg again.

The rules of this competition are simple.

We need the stand on a tilting cloud while holding the tail of

A unicorn.

Whoever hangs on to the tail the longest wins and gets to advance

To part three of the final h.o.h. Competition.

That was aggressive.

Whoa, somebody had broccoli.

I broke my foot week two coming into the "big brother"

House, and I've had to sit out on a lot of physical

Competitions, so going into this last h.o.h., I am pumped because

I finally get to compete, and the timing couldn't be better.

I need to win this first part of the h.o.h., Not only the prove I

Can win a physical competition, but also the secure my place in

The third part of the h.o.h.

Competition.

At this point in the game, I've been thinking really hard

Who I want the take the final two, and I've been thinking all

Along it's christmas, but the other night paul gave me a good

Chase for why we should sit next to each other in final two.

I'm telling you, both of us lose next to her.

She hasn't pissed anybody off.

Us next to each other, they'll be like...

But I'm not sold yet, because I want to be able to make the

Decision that's best for my game at the end, so I need to win the

H.o.h.

My beard is pissed.

I'm pissed.

This unicorn is clearly pissed.

Look, I've had people throwing competitions all season long,

And I've probably thrown a few myself, but now it's time to

Win.

If I win this h.o.h., I secure my spot in part three of the

Final h.o.h. And I'm one step closer to that $,.

Thanks.

The pony pooped.

These unicorn poops are pretty bad, but it's not as bad as

Josh.

Why does it smell like he just farted on me?

Okay.

My cloud decides to kind of tilt back, an my foot is pissed off

At me.

I haven't used my foot as an excuse all summer long, and

There's in way I'm going to start doing that now.

So I have to suck it up, hold on to that unicorn tail, and win

This competition.

All right.

I don't like riding unicorns anymore.

I'm dying.

I'm holding on for dear life.

My legs are trembling, my arms are locking up, everything is

Sore, everything is in pain.

[Groaning] guys, I'm dying.

Come on.

Come on, josh.

Come on.

[Buzzer sounds] I'm extremely disappointed in

Myself.

I was holding on for dear life, and I just couldn't do it.

I wanted to win this one in order to secure my spot in that

Third h.o.h. Competition.

Sucks.

Here we go again.

Well, josh goes down first, and christmas is locked in

Tight.

I got to hang on to this unicorn tail as hard as I can, or that

, Is slipping through my fingers.

Holy cow.

Way too steep for my appreciation.

Oh, my gosh.

My body is jeeping.

My foot is pissed.

My hands are going numb.

That shoulder is... If this unicorn tail keeps growing,

Adding slack to the rope and making it so much more difficult

To hold on.

That was close.

I really got to pull through here, because if I don't win

This competition, I might just sink my chances of being in the

Final two.

No, no, no, no.

Oh, oh.

Whoa.

Yes!

Yes!

Oh, my god, I can't believe it.

I can't even feel my hands.

You are a beast.

I'm in shock.

I've worked really hard this season and put every ounce of

Blood and sweat and tears into this game, and I'm only one

Competition away from a spot in the final two.

Give me a hug.

That was probably one of the hardest falls I've ever taken in

My life because I just... I really wanted it.

You k*lled it.

But I know there's one more to come, and I'm going to give

It all my heart.

And I hope that all of my heart next time is enough to take home

The win.

I'm so pissed.

I can't even grip my hands.

From the moment I stood up there.

Now it's going to be me and christmas facing off in the

Second round of the h.o.h.

Competition.

It sucks that I have to compete against her, but I need to

Secure my spot in the third round.

So I'm sorry, christmas, I love you, but I need to win this next

H.o.h. Competition.

Julie: up next, christmas and josh go head to head.

Then "big brother" legend dr. Will kirby returns to lead

The discussion as a contentious jury debates the merit ofs of th

Final three.

Stay with us.

Season finale of "big brother."

Paul has already won part one of the final head of household

Competition.

Now christmas and josh must face off in part two.

The winner of this round will move on to face paul tonight

Live.

And one of them will become the final h.o.h. Of the summer.

Oh, my god.

I walk into the backyard, and I have been transported into

Another time.

And I'm looking at all of the evicted houseguests.

I'm not sure what's happening, but I am ready to get medieval.

Welcome to part two of the final head of household competition.

The winner will face off against paul in part three for the

Chance to be the final head of household of the summer.

Tonight's competition is called knock 'em down.

Here's how it works.

Present your button to start you timer and reveal first scroll.

Each scroll will tell you which evicted houseguest you need to

Align.

With your job is to attack anyone you're not aligned with

By knocking them down with these launching devices.

When you think that only houseguest that fit that troll's

Description are left standing, hit your buzzer.

If you are correct, you will hear a ding, the next scroll

Will appear on the monitor and you must reset all evicted

Houseguests to their upright positions.

The player who answers the three scrolls correctly and hits their

Button in the fastest time will win part two of this three-part

Head of household competition.

Let's go.

Align yourself with the evicted houseguests that have won h.o.h.

I need to win this competition to show everybody that even with

A broken foot I am a competitor to be reckoned with.

And it will put me one step closer to that $, prize.

First question is pretty easy.

Cody, jessica, jason, and alex have all been h.o.h.s.

I so I have to knock down everybody else.

Bye, mark.

Oh, no.

Sorry, cody, I'm going to have to stand you back up.

I hit cody by accident, so I have to fix that before I buzz

In.

Yeah.

Come on.

Some of these houseguests I won't be able to hit with just

The crossbow, so I have the use all three weapons to get a clear

Shot at each of my target.

Dominique.

Bye.

Bye.

Okay, okay, okay.

Really?

I knocked down jessica when I meant to knock down kevin.

Now I have to fix that one, too.

Good.

I've shot all my houseguests, and I had to go and stand up

Cody and jesss before I buzz in and hope that I'm correct.

[Ding] align yourself with the evicted

Houseguests that were taken off the block with the power of

Veto.

I decided to use the power of veto on myself.

I've decided to use the power of veto on myself.

I'm using the veto on myself.

I know mark, alex and jason were all taken off the block

With the power of veto.

I have to make sure they are the only ones left standing.

All right.

I know matt was on the block when he won the veto, but I

Cannot remember what he did with it.

I have decided to use the power of veto on you.

Extreme!

I'm guessing that he used it on his ride or die, raven.

I'm going to knock down matt and heave raven standing.

Now I'm thinking maybe he used it on himself, so I'm going to

Pick up matt and leave raven down.

I hate my life right now.

Clearly he didn't save himself or raven.

So I'm going to knock both of them down this time and see what

Happens.

Align yourself with the evicted houseguests that were on the

Block on eviction night three or more times.

I know jessica, cody, matt, kevin, alaina, and raven were

All on the block three times or more on eviction night.

Now all I have to do is knock out the other houseguests as

Fast as I possibly can and hopefully my time is faster than

Josh's.

No!

Dang it.

Oh.

The frustrating part about this is I know the answer, but I keep

Knocking down the wrong houseguests.

My mind is scrambled.

My heart hurts because of disappointment.

I am just at a loss in this moment.

[Dinging] I'm frustrated with my

Performance because I think I could have done better, but at

This point I'm hoping that I do a little better than josh and

Move on to that third part of the h.o.h.

Align yourself with the evicted houseguests that have

Won h.o.h.

So it is extremely important for me to win part two of this head

Of household.

I've gotten this far, and I'm in the leaving it in no one's

Hands.

I want to make sure I make it to round three and I have control

Of my bestny moving forward in this game.

-- Destiny moving forward in this game.

I know all the evicted houseguests that won h.o.h.

Because they were the power couples, jessica and cody, and

Alex and jason.

Now I have to knock over everybody else.

Now I have to knock over everybody else.

I'm using this slingshot, and I'm loving it.

Hey, mommy, do you think I can get one of these at home?

So I got to go run down and put this meatball back up.

Come on!

Josh, get your head in the game.

You've got to be kidding me.

Why do I keep hitting jess and cody?

[Ding] align yourself with the evicted

Houseguests that were taken off the block with the power of

Veto.

I know nobody used the power o veto on cody.

Matt was on the block four time, so nobody used it on him.

There we go.

So I know for sure that alex and mark were saved with the veto.

I can't think of anybody else, but I'm going to have to start

Knocking down these meatballs if I want to win this round.

Knocking down these meatballs if I want to win this round.

I'm looking at jason, and I tried to remember, I think

Someone either used the veto on him or he used it on himself.

[Ding] align yourself with the evicted

Houseguests that were on the block on eviction night three or

More times.

Are you kidding me?

I'm lost in the sauce.

So I'm going to do a process of elimination and start knocking

Down houseguests that I don't remember being on the block a

Lot.

Dominique, okay.

Oh.

My girl jillian, she wasn't even here past week two.

No way she was on the block three or more times.

Jillian, why.

Why you give me such hard time, jillian.

We were friends, jillian.

We spoke about tijuana.

[Buzzer] boom, I hear the buzzer.

Now I'm getting really nervous because I know clock is ticking.

I remember kevin and alaina being on the block several

Times, so I need the make sure they're all standing.

[Buzzer] jessica was on the block a lot

And cody was because we were trying to get them out for

Weeks.

[Buzzer] alex and jason were kind of

Sitting pretty until the end.

I'm thinking they weren't on the block that much, so I'm going to

Knock them down.

[Dinging] finally I finished question three, and to be

Honest, I don't feel so good about it.

I have no idea how christmas did.

All I can hope is that I got a good enough time the beat her

Score and move on to round three.

All right, christmas, you finished with a time of one hour

And minutes.

Oh, my gosh, you beat me.

All right, josh, let's see if you can beat one hour and

Minutes.

Wow.

Josh, you got one hour and minutes, congratulations, josh.

You won h.o.h. Part two, and you get to be in h.o.h. Part three.

Wow.

Good job, you two.

I'm pretty disappointed in my performance with this

Competition.

I was really hoping to secure my spot in the final two without

Having somebody take me.

Oh, my god.

Crazy.

It's so crazy for me to think I made it this far in the game.

I am this close and I can literally taste it.

I can see the $, check signed to my name.

Wow.

What is up?

I'm legit in shock.

I secured myself a spot in the end of the game.

Because in that last comp, if I for some chance lose, josh says

He's still going to pull me up.

Last year I was one vote shy of winning and it was

Heartbreaking, but this year I'm pretty sure I have josh beat,

And the people sitting in the jury house don't like me, but I

Definitely know they don't like josh.

And if I can actually win first place this time and get that

Money, I can take it back the my family, release any financial

Burdens that they have, and put the rest back into myself, my

Future, and hopefully I get to spread the word of friendship

Even more.

I think I might actually win, guys.

Super disappointed in my performance.

I failed.

I sucked at that competition.

I've worked so hard, and I have tried so hard to stay positive,

And to show people that you can this whatever you put your mind

To, even play "big brother" with a broken foot.

I honestly don't think that anybody else would have played

With a broken foot, so does that make me exceptional, or does

That make me the girl that got carried through because she has

A broken foot?

When I think about being in the final two, it overwhelms me with

Excitement, because my mom has always been my hero, and she was

Diagnosed with breast cancer.

So now I want to be able to give back to her by helping her pay

For some of the remaining medical bills, but also buy her

A little log cabin on her farm down in texas.

And who doesn't want to buy their mom a house?

Hola, familia.

I'm in the final three.

I made it all the way to finale night.

I can't believe it.

I don't know who believes it, but it's happening.

Winning "big brother" has been my dream since I was years

Old.

Now all I got to do is win that final h.o.h. So I can decide who

To bring with me to final two so I have a better chance at

Winning that $,.

When it comes to the end, I don't know what I'm going to do.

I don't know if I'm going to take christmas or if I'm going

To take paul.

I think if I make a big move and get paul out, people will be

Like, that would be the move that would bring my game full

Circle.

I love paul, but I play for my family.

My family came from cuba with the american dream, literally

Came from nothing.

All the hard work they've been through and all the sweat and

All the struggles.

If I can win this money and say to my mom and dad, thank you for

All you've done for me, my life is complete.

I'll be the happiest -year-old in the world.

I got to win tomorrow.

I'm gunning for it.

[Cheering and applause] julie: up next, blind

Sided, back stabbed, and bitter, the jurors come together to

Discuss the final three.

But first, we'll be back again next summer, and we're looking

For the next group of houseguests.

Announcer: outgoing, outspoken --

Go on.

Announcer: -- outrageous.

The search is on for the next "big brother" houseguests.

Extremetard.

Announcer: do you have to move in and compete in a

Three-month power struggle for $,?

I live in an insane asylum.

Go to cbs.com for details.

[Applause] julie: welcome back to the

Two-hour season finale of "big brother."

One by one each jury member entered the jury house and

Realized they'd been played.

And with emotions running high, they gather to learn who would

Be the next to join them and then to voice their opinions of

The final three.

My name is dr. Will.

I am a former "big brother" winner, but I am also a former

Tonight we'll discuss the final three houseguests and what they

Did to be where they are tonight.

But we can't discuss the final three until we know who the

Final three are, so with no further adieu, let's get into

It.

Who do you think will be joining us tonight?

Kevin.

Why do you think that?

He's more likable than the rest of them.

[Laughter] oh, my god.

I agree with that.

Absolutely kevin.

I would love to see josh walk through the doors, but I'm

Thinking it's going to be christmas.

We hope it's christmas.

Christmas, %.

If I could break her other leg, I would.

[Laughter] well, let's find out who jury

Number eight is.

Kevin!

Kevin, welcome to the jury.

Hey, I like the suit.

Thank you.

How are you?

Good, how are you?

I knew it was going to be kevin.

You said christmas?

That just defines the puppet master already.

You're sulking already.

The incredible sulk has started already.

I know.

Matt, name three things you were known for this sumner

You're the incredible sulker.

Does anybody have cereal for you, matt?

You did absolutely nothing.

That works for me.

You're proud of that.

That's pathetic, matt.

No, no, no, but how are you a puppet master if you came in

Sixth place?

Mark, you hit the jury house way before I did.

I never said I was a great player.

Sit down.

I am sitting down, matt.

Matt, you did absolutely nothing in the graham.

Come up with something new, matt.

You were irrelevant.

Absolutely, bro.

Okay.

Okay.

Kevin, welcome to the jury.

Thank you very much.

Hey, kevin.

Glad to have you.

Tell us what happened?

More happened here than there.

There's only four of us left.

Paul was the h.o.h.

He put josh and me on the block.

Paul wins pov.

He didn't take me off, that was the plan to take me off, I got

Prized and I'm here.

Oh, weird.

Whose vote sent you out the door.

Christmas, she didn't have to go into the room, she voted me

Out right there.

Why did you not scream at paul and why are you not mad at

Him when it's obvious he screwed you?

Do what, get up there in front of...

I want you to knock his teeth out.

I'm not that type of person, jason.

Now that we know what happened let's get back into it.

Let's discuss josh.

From the get-go, I think people saw that josh was

Emotionally unstable, and they use that to their benefit.

I think the reason he's there is honestly pure luck.

I don't think he played the best game.

Same here.

I mean, he just used what he had to and was loud and obnoxious

And aggressive, and then he wound pout and cry.

I don't respect josh as a dude.

In general.

Okay.

Overall.

Josh realized that his role was to be like a non-violent

Psychopath that was extremely emotional.

I don't want to reward bad behavior.

He just had bad behavior the entire time.

I don't respect josh as a human being.

I think the only thing that he's done in the "big brother" game

Is existed.

Cody, can josh win the game?

I mean, I think paul and josh are both scum, but at least josh

Took action, while paul was behind a closed door being a

Wuss.

True.

Even if he cried after the fact, he would say what he felt to

Your face.

Anyone who can fight with every person in the house and still

Make final three is pretty impressive.

Agreed.

Josh is willing to do whatever it takes to win.

He didn't mind ruining his social game.

He wanted to get to the end and he did.

Fair enough.

So guys, why does christmas deserve to win the game?

That's a good yes.

I may ask you that.

I don't know.

I have no idea.

She's in the top three.

She broke her foot and the angle that she used and she's there.

That's true.

They carried her along.

I guess for me christmas gets the cr*pple pass.

I think that's the only reason she's in the house.

You know what, if jason broke my foot, I would probably still be

Sitting in the house, and I wouldn't be mad about it.

Christmas' biggest move is that jason broke her foot?

Yeah, she took a tragedy and turned it into a triumph

Basically.

Pretty simple.

Once she realized that nobody wanted to use her for her body,

She had to switch to a social game.

I thought she wanted to take me to final four and I got

Evicted, so she's playing good social game.

She's there.

We're all here.

So she has to be doing something right.

I think her best game move was aligning with josh, because

When your alliance member is always the biggest target, helps

You out.

Guys, why should paul win the game?

[Silence] paul's a veteran.

He's a clever little player.

He manipulated everybody.

And he outsmarted everybody here.

And if it's a game of outsmarting, I say paul should

Definitely win.

Paul made it to the final three without going on the block

A single time.

The only other player to ever do that is derek.

But he had this game served up on a silver platter.

He was able to play with three weeks of safety.

You benefited from the halting hex.

Barely.

I don't know how much of an advantage.

There were ten or weeks after of him getting safety.

Many, many more eviction, many, many more opportunities,

And yet they weren't taken.

Correct.

If I had won an h.o.h. And not been evicted, I would have taken

A shot at paul, but paul eliminated the people that

Challenged him the most, that he feared their intelligence, that

He was afraid could actually go after him.

That's the game.

You don't think that's impressive.

He wanted everybody else to do the dirty work.

He didn't account for people in the jury house talking about,

Oh, you had a final three with him since week three, so did we,

It was overplaying.

There's a number of duos on the stage tonight, and you all

Would have been in the final three with paul, correct?

Yes.

Yeah.

Yes.

You would have not been in the final three of paul?

We realized that his real alliance is himself.

It didn't matter who he backstabbed or who he lied on.

He just ex*cuted whatever served paul.

It's "big brother."

We all lied.

Paul was telling me all season that he's going to keep

Me and play with me.

Do you know how many times he got in my ear to convince me

That you were counterfeit.

It can't be too much counterfeit.

Still counterfeit.

You just got played.

He did that with everyone and tried to turn our duos against

Each other, backstabbed us, lied to us, manipulated us, which

Some would say that's how you say big broark and that's fine,

But there is such a thing as bitter jurors.

So poor jury management?

Very poor jury management.

I think he overplayed.

I think he abused relationships.

He's trying to make it personal by making sure every

Player feels belittled.

I think it's bad game play.

He did things that were hurtful and crossed the line

That I am determining as a jury member.

He overlied.

It was uncalled for.

That's part of the game.

Please raise your hand if you lied or backstabbed anyone in

The in the "big brother" house?

I lied once or twice.

Who did we backstab?

Alex, you reluctantly put up your hand, but admittedly, there

Was some backstabbing or lying or bloond siding.

Who did I backstab and blind side?

Who were the people evicted prior to you?

So you didn't have anything to do with those blindsides?

You said lie.

I didn't lie to anyone.

Is fake crying lying?

I don't think so.

Did you say -- fake cry?

Yeah, josh was going to play me.

I guess I lied to josh by your standard.

She just never lied to somebody's face, point blank.

Paul was in my face, day after day, mark, I have your

Back.

Then he's going to jason, we got to geddry of mark.

There is no need for that.

Are we playing big baby?

Yes, we're all salty, because we're here, and we're not there.

But between christmas and josh, paul deserves to win this game.

Everyone here...

Paul tricked every single person sitting here, except for

Cody.

He played a good game.

You're supposed to lie and manipulate and make people think

You're on your side and backstab them and send them home.

An he tricked me too, but nobody is going to tell me that

Josh and christmas played a better game than paul, not in a

Million years.

So, guys, the final three houseguests are still in the

House and you're not, so clearly they did something right, yet

None of you guys have given the final three any real credit for

Making it.

I guess you're giving paul some credit, but no one is giving

Anyone else other credit.

I see how paul made it to final three.

I think the other two people are in final three because they are

Non-threats.

I don't respect how this season played out and I don't

Respect the strategy.

Are you guys just sore losers?

We can all acknowledge that.

Are final three houseguests are better than all of you?

I'm absolutely a sore loser.

Thank you for your honesty.

It takes hard work and passion.

That's how I'm judging the people that are there.

What did josh or christmas do to show us they worked hard at

The game?

Josh fought with everyone.

He fought with pots and pan, that was his biggest asset to

The game.

I don't know that I ever said paul didn't work hard.

I don't respect the way he worked.

Did josh and christmas hard?

Josh, yes, christmas,.

No I disagree with that.

Anyone who can go with surgery and have to recover in a house,

I have had eight surgeries -- oh, my god.

Hey, raven, you have to go in a house and stay with people

Fighting, that made a lot of mental capacity.

She made the choice to stay in the house.

If she felt she couldn't compete, she shouldn't have

Stayed in the house.

Jason, hard work and passion.

All three fit the bill.

So all three are reasonable options to win "big brother"?

I think they're for sure our only options.

Of course they're the only options.

You have to pick one of the final three.

So, guys, we don't know who the final two houseguests are

Going to be.

As a jury, you're going to have the opportunity to question the

Final two.

So those questions that you pose plus our discussion here tonight

Are ultimately going to determine who wins "big

Brother."

So I suggest you make those questions count.

Julie: coming up, it's paul versus josh.

We'll crown the final head of household live.

The winner will not only guarantee themselves a spot in

The final two, but they will decide who they compete against

When facing the jury for the $, grand prize.

Plus you've been voting all week for america's favorite

Houseguest.

I'll reveal the winner of that $, prize later on.

Stay with us.

Julie: welcome back to the live season finale of "big

Brother."

Paul or josh?

It's time for them to compete for the final h.o.h. Of the

Summer.

This h.o.h. Will have to immediately decide whom he wants

To evict and whom he wants the face off against for the

$, Prize.

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

Hello, houseguests.

Hey, julie.

Hey, julie.

Julie: well, for the last time this season, the power is

Up for grabs.

Competition, you are the only ones eligible to compete

Tonight.

This competition is called "scales of just us."

To win, you'll have to prove just how well you know the

Members of the jury.

I will read the beginnings of statements made by each of the

Eight members of the "big brother" jury.

For each, I'll give you the choice of two possible endings.

You must decide how you think the juror completed that

Statement.

The answer will be either a or b.

For every correct answer, you will receive one point.

Whoever has the most points at the end of eight questions will

Tip the scale in their favor and be crowned the final head of

Household.

Are you both ready?

Question left, there is no need to continue, which means,

Congratulations to you, josh.

You're the final head of household.

It is now up to you, josh, to decide whom you want to compete

Against for the $, prides.

I'll be back in just a few moments for your decision.

I'll be back in just a few moments for your decision.

Oh, my god!

Julie: josh has struggled for weeks for who he wants to

Take to the final two.

Next he makes his big decision of the game, and it could be the

Difference between coming in second and winning it all.

Stay with us.

Julie: welcome back to the live, two-hour season any family

Of "big brother."

Just minutes ago josh became the final head of household of the

Summer.

Now he must choose to evict either paul or christmas,

Automatically ensuring the remaining houseguest a spot in

The final two.

Let's head to the living room for <span tts:fontstyle="italic">the</span>most important eviction

Of the game.

Paul, christmas, in just a few moments josh will cast his vote

To evict, but before he does, you each have one last chance to

Plead your case.

Paul, you're up first.

Josh, buddy, you shook my hand on day one, I've worked

Really hard beside you in the beginning of the game, and I

Think I've had your back a lot of times in this game, I've kept

You safe when I needed to, and I hope you can keep me safe in

This moment.

Thank you, bud.

Julie: thank you, paul.

Christmas?

Thanks, julie.

I don't know what to say, josh, you're my meatball.

Paul, you're friendship paul, and I love both of you, so I

Just want to say thank you for an amazing summer.

I've had the time of my life, and I honestly am walking out of

Here with so many things that I didn't expect to gain, like so

Many friendships and an experience thatly never be able

To relive again, so I want to thank both of you for

Contributing to that, and I love you very much.

Thank you.

Julie: thank you, christmas.

Thank you both.

Josh, you are now guaranteed at least second place and the

$, Prize that goes with it.

But you have a big decision to make by deciding whom to evict.

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

The jury votes for the winner of "big brother."

This could be a $, decision for you, josh.

Are you ready to make it?

Yes.

Julie: all right, please stand.

Go to the head of the living room, and cast your vote to

Evict.

Oh, this is hard.

I love you both dearly, and you guys have been the best and

Closest friends to me in this house, and to be honest with

You, if it wasn't for each of you, I wouldn't have made hit

The far.

I love you guys.

I have been playing.

I've worked my butt off and I played my heart out.

And I just think about jury, and I think about how many people

Are pissed off at me in jury and how many people I've upset in

Jury, and I think I have a better chance, call me crazy,

Sitting next to paul in the end.

I'm so sorry, christmas, I love you so much.

Thank you for being my rock in this game, but you are a bad a*s

And one of the strongest, toughest competitors, and you

k*lled everybody with kindness and handled every single

Eviction with grace, and I just think that I wouldn't win

Against you.

It's a game decision, and I'm just doing it for my family.

Julie: it's official.

Christmas, you're the last person to be evicted from the

"Big brother" house.

Love you.

The misfits.

The misfits.

Love you guys.

Love you, too.

Julie: christmas.

Don't apologize.

Julie: christmas, we need you to leave immediately,

Please.

Bye, guys.

Bye, christmas.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you, julie.

[Cheering and applause] julie: running.

Good for you.

Welcome.

Welcome, welcome.

We did it, dude.

We won.

Oh, my god, dude.

We did it.

Mic is --.

Julie: christmas, you were tight with josh.

He didn't choose you.

How does it feel?

I'm proud of him.

Julie: why?

Because obviously in your speech you weren't asking him to keep

You.

It seemed like you were resigned to the fact that you were going

To be saying good-bye to these two guys.

What do you mean you're proud of him?

I'm proud of him because he always acts with his heart, and

He finally started thinking true strategically, and he's right, I

Don't know if I would have won over him, but I don't know, I'm

Just proud of him.

He made the ultimate game move, and...

Julie: don't reveal to us who you're going to vote for.

Nope, not going to.

Julie: that being said, do you think he made the right

Choice for his game?

Do you think he has a better chance of perhaps winning

Against paul than had he taken you?

I think that he has a better chance, yeah.

Julie: why?

You know, my mom told me to k*ll 'em with kindness before I

Came, and I just tried to always hold myself with integrity, and

I know that I lost my top a few times.

Crazy christmas came out.

But...

Julie: you think you had a better social game, you didn't

Make enemies?

I think so.

Paul has a great social game but he's a vet, he's rally, really

Good at this game, and I think people will be able to see that.

Julie: in the real world, you are a competitor.

You're a crossfit champ.

Had you not broken your foot in the game, would you have had a

Totally different strategy in playing this than how we saw?

Yes.

Yes, julie.

Yes.

I love competing.

I love winning.

I love pushing myself to pass what I think my limits are, and,

You know, that's one thing that I was hoping... When I did break

My foot and "big brother" was amazing enough to let me stay, I

Was hoping for people to realize no matter what circumstances

They're given, you can make the best of it and you can surprise

Yourself.

There is no way I thought I was going to be able to be in top

Three, and here I am.

I have two amazing friends, and I get to show everybody that you

Can do whatever you put your mind to.

Julie: you feel proud of yourself?

I am proud of myself.

Julie: good for you.

Thank you, julie.

Julie: you're the last juror.

We'll see you shortly when you and the others thank you votes.

Thank you, christmas.

Stay seated.

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

Jury gets the chance to grill them, looking for answers to

Help them make their decision on who deserves the $, grand

Prize.

The live interrogation is next.

Stay with us.

Julie: welcome back to the season finale of "big brother."

The fate in the final two now rests in the hands of the jury.

Please welcome cody.

[Applause] alaina.

[Applause] mark.

[Applause] matt.

[Applause] jason.

[Applause] raven.

[Applause] alex.

[Applause] and kevin.

[Applause] hello, hello.

Welcome back, everyone.

Right now there are only eight of you here right now.

That's because?

Just moments ago the last houseguest was evicted.

And will be coming out shortly.

Jason, who do you think is jury number nine?

Not who you hope, who do you think?

I think it's going to be christmas.

Julie: mark, who do you think it's going to be?

Christmas.

Julie: let's see if you guys are right.

Juror number nine, come on out.

[Cheering and applause] all right.

You guys were right.

Now, just to bring everyone to speed, just moments ago josh

Became the final h.o.h., And josh --

What?

Julie: josh is the one who evicted christmas.

All right.

In a few moments everyone will be passing their vote for who

They think should win "big brother."

Before you do that, you get to question the final two as a

Group.

We have asked you to come up with three questions for each

Finalist.

Have you all agreed on the questions?

Yes.

Julie: all right.

Then let us get started, shall we?

Paul, josh, I'm here with the jury, and in just a few moment,

They'll be voting for one of you to win "big brother," but before

They do, they've got some questions for the two of you.

Alaina, you're up first.

All right.

Paul, some of us in the jury feel that you orchestrated and

Participated in bullying tactics in the house.

Why was that necessary, and how did it serve your game?

I definitely don't think that I was orchestrating bullying

Tactics.

I definitely spoke up on behalf of a lot of people, maybe people

What they didn't voice out publicly, they would tell me

Privately, and I felt like I was the one who had to mediate or

Speak on everybody's behalf.

It wasn't something that I ever solely made on my decision, it

Was something that everyone was a part of.

Julie: thank you, paul.

Matt?

Josh, the jury doesn't feel you had a strategy in the game.

Tell us why we're wrong and explain your biggest game move?

Well, big surprise to you guys and I've been a superfan

Since I was years old.

This is my biggest dream.

I've envisioned myself since I was in my position.

My biggest move had to be the strategic social game I played.

I aligned with the outsiders, jason and alex, the outsiders,

And I aligned also with christmas and paul, which were

In that -person alliance which I knew would break up.

Christmas was giving me pecking order information.

I was keeping jason and alex calm.

Luckily for cody that happened on week.

Two also getting rid of alex, one of the strongest competitor,

It was hard because she was one of my closest friends in the

Game.

So it was extremely hard, but I knew she knew the game as well

As I did and I had to get her out because if not she would

Beat me in the end.

Julie: thank you, josh.

Alex, you're next.

Paul, in your last season your game play was based on

Friendship.

This season why did you decide to go against that by creating

Friendships and alliances and then detrying them?

I don't necessarily think that I destroyed any friendships

Or alliances.

I tried to get friendship with everybody in this house, but

Unfortunately a lot of people either turned their back on me

Or I would find out were having hypothetical conversations about

Getting me out.

I tried to help everybody as much as I could and I got people

As far as I can but maybe the misconception is I would toss my

Game for somebody else's.

I did help people where and when I could, but I would never toss

My game or stretch my neck out in order for somebody else to

Just go over me.

Julie: thank you, paul.

Cody, next question.

Josh, some on the jury feel you police department a bigger

Part in paul's game than your own.

Tell us why we're wrong.

I actually played my own game.

Being in the business industry, one of the biggest tips that my

Dad gave me was always let your business partners and people

You're doing business with feel like they have the control

Because they're more... They want to invest more or they feel

Safer with you.

I didn't want to oppose a threat, more of an al lie, so I

Downplayed my intelligence and how smart I was and how much I

Knew the game.

Paul was a great ally because I saw him last season, and I knew

No matter what he wasn't going the change how loyal he was, so

I stuck to him and it worked.

Julie: thank you, josh.

Jason, next question.

Paul, it seems like you made moves throughout the game with

The goal of avoiding making enemies in the jury.

Why unnecessarily lie to our faces days and hours before we

Were going to the jury?

You had to have known that we would compare notes.

Of course there was some points where I knew that certain

Things were going to happen, but at the same time, I did do and

Say everything that I was going to do.

If I used the veto, I said I would.

If I pulled someone off, I did.

But at the same time, certain people, if the house wanted a

Certain target out and I was outnumbered, I couldn't

Necessarily help that individual.

I still had friendship with that individual, I was still close to

That individual, but if the entire house was against them,

They were too afraid to make certain decisions on their own,

I had the play my part.

And I wanted to keep myself available to compete the

Following week, so if I had competitions thrown for certain

People to win and take my targets out for me, I was

Eligible to compete the following week in case as a

Security blanket because I never knew what would happen.

Julie: mark, next question.

Josh, it seems like every time you had an altercation with

Someone in the house it would result in you crying afterward,

Apologizing and proclaiming you wouldn't do it anymore, but it

Would inevitably happen again.

How did this serve your game?

Well, actually, one of my game moves was to expose

People's games.

I knew I was going to stay true to myself and be loyal, but

Having an eye, being fan, I can easily see people's shady game

Play.

So one of my strategies was to expose and call out people on

Their game.

Did I feel good about it all the time?

No, because I genuinely liked all of you, but it was my

Strategy to have the rest of the house see what a shady game some

People already playing and the moves they were making.

I felt bad but it was part of my game and it got me to this

Point.

Julie: all right.

Thank you, josh.

Now, christmas, you were just evicted, so I want to give you a

Chance to ask one question, so go ahead and pick either paul or

Josh, who you want to ask a question to, and ask away.

Josh, meatball, I would like the know if you would rather

Evict peppy or crutches and why?

Well, I would have rather evicted peppy, because peppy

Would storm around and chase me down with creepy christmas hugs

And drive me nuts half the time I was here, but, yeah, peppy for

Sure.

I love you.

Julie: all right, paul and josh, I will be back in just a

Few moments when you'll each have an opportunity to make a

Final statement to the jury.

When we return, paul and josh have one last chance to plead

Their case, a speech that could be worth $,.

Stay with us.

[Cheering and applause]

Julie: welcome back to the live season finale of "big

The jury is just moments away from casting their votes to

Determine who will win "big brother," but before they do,

Let's check back in with the final two.

Paul, josh, it's now time for the jury to cast their votes,

But first, you each have a chance to tell them why you

Deserve to win "big brother."

Paul, you're up first.

Julie: houseguests, I know that at some point each of you

Wanted to, thought of, or tried to get me out of this game.

From the second I walked in those doors, I was immediately

Put at a disadvantage.

I was the odd man out.

You all knew who I was, so I had to play a different game than

All of you.

With my first h.o.h. I used my social skills to get control of

Numbers in the house.

Then I made it a point to always set the house target in place.

Because I had such strong control of numbers, nobody will

Take a shot at me, and everyone asked for my advice, so I had a

Hand in every h.o.h. And I set up a house target in front of

Me.

After surviving the first double eviction, I had to change my

Strategy and I positioned myself in a perfect place between three

Pairs, joshmas, maven and jalix.

My social gail was so strong, I didn't have to win anything.

I let the right people win and while they were sh**ting at each

Other, I maneuvered my way to the top.

From that way on I won myself until the end.

I won the most important h.o.h.

And I won't the most important veto who controlled who came the

Final three with with me.

I won part one of the h.o.h., Securing myself.

And I made sure no neart what I would end up in this position

Right here.

I did.

I had a total of nine competitions.

Every time I won h.o.h., I won the veto that came with it.

The other four vetoes I won not only kept me safe in the game,

But it was pivotal power moves that pushed me forward.

From the second I walked in this door I worked my a*s off making

Tough decisions and everybody wanted to know what I was doing

And what I was thinking, and I still made it and fought my way

To this point right here without ever touching the block one

Single time this entire season.

That's not by luck.

That's not by friendship.

But that's by playing the hell out of "big brother," which is

Exactly what I came back here to do.

Thank you guys so much.

Julie: thank you, paul.

Josh?

Well, all the glory to god for making my dream come true.

I have been a fan when I was years old.

I played fearlessly.

I had to put targets on people's back, expose people's games so

They could see the shady game some people were playing.

I aligned myself strategically with christmas and paul because

They were in a big alliance, and I aligned with jason an alex.

Luckily a reason to ride lined myself with people that won most

Of the h.o.h.s.

I took shots when I was h.o.h.

And made moves.

All three of my targets, mark, elena and jessica, which ended

Up with jessica going home, I took a shot at alex, one of <span tts:fontstyle="italic">the </span>

Strongest game players in the house, she played a great game.

I adapted to the game.

I played fearslessly.

Sorry, I'm nervous.

I... sh**t.

I'm sorry.

I adapted to the game, played fearlessly, I played my heart

Out and I gave it everything that I've got.

You know, I had to play from day one when I didn't get a

Friendship bracelet and if it wasn't for, that I wouldn't make

It to day , I didn't let people know how intelligent I

Was.

I was underestimated, which was my biggest strength physically,

Mentally and how well I knew the game, and none of you caught on

To that.

You all underestimated me and that's why I'm sitting here at

The end.

Not only did I make moves and take shots and get out strong

Players, but I played loyal, sticking by my morals and who I

Am as a person.

People saw that and kept me in this house and I played the hell

Out of the game, so I hope that's respected.

Julie: thank you, josh.

Thank you both.

All right, jurors, it's time for each of you to step up to the

Voting box and vote for who you think should win "big brother."

One at a time, you will insert the key of the person you want

To see win this game.

Cody, you're first.

I'm going to stay true to my word.

Julie: thank you, cody.

Alaina.

Cut scene.

There's no jury manage.

Julie: thank you, alaina.

Mark.

Congratulations, both of you.

Julie: thank you, mark.

Matt.

I am voting for the person I feel simply did more in every

Single aspect of the game.

No thank you, matt.

Jason.

You both aligned with me.

Somebody's got to go.

Julie: thank you, jason.

Raven.

Buddy, I am voting for the person I think played <span tts:fontstyle="italic">the</span>best

Game the whole season.

Julie: thank you, raven.

Alex.

You said it was just a game and that we'd be friends

Afterward.

If that's true, then let's be friends.

Otherwise I'm voting for the person who stabbed me in the

Front instead of the back.

Julie: thank you.

Kevin.

I would just like to say I'm proud of both of you guys.

You played a great game.

You're.

There we're here.

Congratulations to both of you guys.

I mean that.

No thank you, kevin.

Finally, christmas.

Sorry.

I love you both, an I'm very proud of you both.

It's been a long summer.

And this is % game move.

Make sure I have this right.

Love you guys.

Julie: thanks, christmas.

And with that the voting is now complete.

Up next, they may have left the game early, but cameron,

Jillian, dominique, ramses, and jessica got to watch the whole

Season play out from home.

They join us live next.

Stay with us.

Season finale of "big brother."

It's been a while since they left the "big brother" house.

Please say hello to cameron, jillian, dominique, ramses, and

Jessica.

[Cheering and applause] all right.

Welcome back.

It's good to see everyone back in the same room together.

When each of you got evicted, you got to go home and watch the

Truth, the whole story, what happened.

I know you want to let the jurors in on what was going on

That they're in the aware of.

Jess cash I'm going to start with you.

We're going to get to you and cody in a moment, because I

E-mail sure the two of you want to embrace and all that.

You'll have your moment at the end of the show.

But let's first talk game.

What do you want these jurors to know?

Well, I tried warning you guys at the end of it all, but

You didn't listen.

Paul had an alliance with everyone except for cody.

Hi, cody.

Not one of you meant more to him than the other person.

He quite often laughed at you, referred to himself as the

Puppet master, and he played you all, and he did a great job at

It, but you guys let him do.

And the worst part of the entire season was that most of you have

Been quoted several times saying things like, "paul deserves to

Win," and I "I have no problem losing to paul."

And from a "big brother" standpoint, if you guys wanted

To play like, that you probably shouldn't have come in the

House.

Julie: you also said maybe not to one another, but you also

Talked so much about, I trust paul, I trust paul, I trust

Paul.

You may not have compared notes to one another while in the

House, but you certainly told us that while in the diary room.

Let's all take a look.

Oh, my god, yes.

Sorry I'm late.

What's up?

Hello, houseguests, this is your puppet master speaking.

Paul from season just walked inch I can in the believe

"Big brother" brought him back.

Remind me your name again.

Jessica.

Jessica.

I am such fan of his.

I need to work with him.

Julie: congratulations, jessica.

I know paul.

I trust paul.

The best thing he did was not give me a brace let?

Why.

It disconnects us.

I'm trusting what paul says.

Now that paul is h.o.h., I actually feel safe.

Paul has a plan this week, and I trust him.

You know what, paul, I'm a team player, you want me to go

Ahead and compete, I'm going to do it.

I probably confided more in paul than I have anyone else

Game wise.

I fully trust paul.

I trust him with my game life.

I just hope paul wins this because jason and I have a good

Relationship with him.

It probably doesn't get any better than to have a team like

Paul an alex.

Other than christmas, paul is the only other person that I

Trust in this house.

I think that paul's an exceptional person and one of

The most interesting people they've ever met.

Paul is my final-two guy.

We're two smart people.

We know how to play this game.

Paul is my buddy.

Paul pulled through again.

He did what he said he was going to do.

I trust paul.

He's always given me the truth about what's happened.

He's given me his word.

Paul.

Paul.

Paul.

Paul.

Paul.

Paul.

Paul.

Now that I'm strung up all my puppets, made them nice and

Shiny, I can pick them up and make them dance.

Whoa.

Julie: just for the record -- all right.

During that taped piece, everyone was laughing, except

Cody.

I tried warning you guys.

Before I get a reaction from any jurors, jessica, you were one

Week away from making it to the jury, if you were on the jury,

Who would you vote for to win between paul and josh in

Well, watching how paul... He had everything to do with every

Head of household, every eviction, he orchestrated

Everything from beginning to end.

Competitions were thrown in his name, and I think he played a

Great game, and if I was in jury, he would get my vote

Tonight.

Julie: okay.

Let me turn to you, jason.

Are you surprised that everybody trusted paul just as much as you

Trusted paul?

He was good at his craft.

He had my hook, line and sinker.

I would basically have... I basically did just about

Everything he said.

I forfeited my own opinion half the time, so I was super

Shocked.

Julie: all right.

Let me turn to paul, because paul you had to do a lot of

Backstabbing, blind siding to get to where you are right now

Whom was it the hardest to betray in the house?

Say me.

Julie: obviously there were so many between raven, jason,

Alex, all of you guys.

It's not that we didn't have friendships.

I boothed with you so much that I was torn between my friendship

With you and my game play.

I knew I was a returning vet and I couldn't be the rushing vet

Who did nothing.

I had to play the game.

In order to survive in the game, I had the make these moves.

This is where I am now because of the moves I made.

Unfortunately I couldn't satisfy everybody and I'm sorry, but I

Tried to get as much friendship as I could.

Julie: well, paul, you should know that you weren't the

Only one that was sneaky in the house.

Josh, I want to turn to you, because during your good-bye

Messages to the evicted houseguests, you gave them an

Earful.

Let's show paul and everyone what we're talking about.

Whistle nut, paul came up with an elaborate plan in order

To get you out, and I've been in a final-three alliance with

Christmas and paul for a while now.

I hope you can respect the game move, but for my game, I had to

Let you imosm raven, I got to let you know, I have a

Three-person alliance with paul and christmas.

Honestly, I expected my alliance to keep you, but instead they

Voted to keep kevin.

I'm so sorry.

Alex, I've had an alliance with paul and christmas.

I had to stand by them and make this move, and I'm so sorry for

The move, but I hope you can respect it.

Kevin, I've been aligned with christmas and paul, and our goal

Was to get a final three, so I'm so sorry, but you were our last

Target.

Julie: josh?

Yeah.

Julie: explain to everyone what your intention was when you

Recorded those messages?

Blaming it on me!

New york I didn't.

Listen, honestly, I wanted them to know that it was all for

Game.

I gave christmas and paul my word and my loyalty from week

One, day one.

And I stood by them.

But I did stuff in order for me to win, they didn't know my game

Or they didn't know what was going on, and it was my way to

Explain to them what was going on, because nobody had any idea.

Everybody was lost.

And it was the only... Without ruining my game, it was the only

Way I could let them know the plan and I was going to stick

With them to the end.

Julie: you are shaking your head, paul.

What's your response to what you just saw?

Honestly, I think it's a little cowardly to toss the

Blame, but I think he gave me credit in and of itself, because

I did have to take him this far, because I was hoping that I

Could beat him.

So...

Julie: all right.

Cameron, you were the first one evicted.

You got to see everything from home pretty much.

What surprised you the most?

The amount of showmances.

There were so many showmances right away.

It seemed like everybody clicked up and it seemed like nobody was

Really playing for themselves.

It just seemed like people were playing for each other or

Playing for paul.

So it just... The lack of motivation, I don't know if you

Guys all have $, in your bank accounts, but like you all

Were just playing for each other and not for yourself, and that

Was really frustrating for me because I came in and was doing

Whatever I could immediately the stay in that house.

Julie: now usually -- [laughter]

Naked.

Julie: usually when you're a duo in the house, that puts a

Target on your back, but none of you were afraid to show that you

Were paired up with someone.

As a matter of fact, alex, I want to ask you, when season

Winner derek went into the house and spent some time with all of

You, you said in front of everyone, my ride or die is

Jason.

Why did you reveal that in front of everybody?

I think it's been pretty obvious since day one that we're

Ride or die.

He's my best friend in the house, my family.

I'm not ashamed of jason.

That's best guy in this game.

Whew!

So far.

Julie: cody, you have not seen jessica in five weeks.

You've been in jury.

Yeah.

Julie: how do you feel about her right now?

Good.

[Laughter] julie: still want to be a

Couple with her?

Yes.

And I'm waiting for this to all be over so I can go hug her.

Julie: well hang on, hang on.

I've been warned multiple times that I can't run across

And gab jessica.

Julie: let me ask the lady, jessica, you've been away for

Five weeks.

You went back to the outside world.

How do you feel about seeing cody?

Well, I think everybody on the outside world knows that

I've been his biggest fan, his biggest supporter.

I've been rooting you on literally all day every day, and

If...

Julie: do you still want to be in a relationship?

Julie: even more so.

That's all we wanted to know.

Thanks, everybody.

I have no idea how I came up short.

I did everything that I could.
