Of the power of veto.

julie: Good evening.

I'm julie chen.

Welcome to "big brother."

It's day 41 inside the "big

Brother" house, and it's deja vu

All over again.

For the second week in a row, a

Showmance will come to an end.

Matt, the current head of

Household, followed through with

The house's wish to put brendon

And rachel side by side on the

Chopping block.

So who will leave the house?

And become the first member of

The jury that will crown the

Winner of "big brother."

We'll find out soon.

But first, ragan may be the new

Saboteur in the house, but it's

Brendon who seems determined to

Sabotage his very own game all

In the name of love.

well, over the last five

Weeks I guess I've come to

Realize that you are a spoiled

Brat.

And you are selfish.

Last week, I know you wanted to

Work with us, and talking about

Putting up matt and ragan.

You yet this week you've now

Teamed up with their alliance,

And I'm not going to really

Expect you to use the power of

Veto, but I would like to you

Use it on me.

brendon, just as I'm a

Spoiled brat, you're a class a

Act.

That being said, I have decided

Not to use the power of veto.

This veto meeting is adjourned.

this is just like that scene

From the cable guy, where the,

Like, neanderthal makes an

Idiotic speech.

I called brendon a neanderthal

Because that's exactly what he

Is.

He is early man.

He thinks that he can attack

People who are smaller or weaker

Than him.

So it was important to interject

And let him know that he's

Messed with the wrong person.

good job, brendon.

I'm sorry, rachel.

brendon, he's just a

Disgusting human being.

He is a p*nsy.

He is an idiot, freaking spawn

Of satan.

He definitely has to leave this

House.

my plan was to take the

Target off rachel's back and put

It on me.

I figured by attacking britney

And ragan it would basically

Initiate a chain reaction that

Would cause everyone in the

House to vote me out.

I want her to stay in this game

Because this girl could be my

Wife, could be the mother of my

Children.

So I don't mind taking a dive

Because she's definitely worth

It.

brendon.

I knew brendon was going to

Do something, but I had no idea

That he was going to sacrifice

So much.

Like, that alone makes brendon

The most amazing, special person

That I've ever met.

I love you.

people may think that I'm an

Idiot for giving up a shot at

Half a million dollars, but I'm

In love.

And giving up half a million

Dollars for somebody you love

Makes you an idiot, then I guess

I'm an idiot.

I'm really sorry.

I had no idea that brendon was

Going to do that.

he has been talking bad about

Me behind my back this entire

Game, and I haven't let it

Affect, lining, you and I, and

I'm not going to.

You're worst mistake in this

Game was being with him because

He's a sinking ship.

I know that you're in love with

Him, but the way that he plays

This game is so classless, and

To say the things that he did

About me?

Rachel, he doesn't like women.

I'm sorry if that hurts your

Feelings, but I'm just very

Upset right now.

it's like the worst position

To be in, because he is someone

I care about, obviously.

I know.

I'm crying as if I'm so

Surprised by what brendon just

Did, because for this to work,

I've got to make britney think

That brendon did this totally

Without me knowing.

brendon's just not playing

This game very smart, and I hate

It for you because I think

You're a really smart game

Player.

okay.

so I'm sorry.

Here, let's hug it out.

it's okay.

there she is.

I went outside to talk to the

Guys because I want them to see

Brendon for who he truly is.

He is a disgusting, vile person,

And I want to make sure that

Everybody knows that.

It's so disgusting how he tries

To always pick on me that he

Thinks is smaller and more weak

Than him.

yeah, people who he's

Intimidated by.

he tries to dominate.

he doesn't say nothing.

right.

He is so disgusting.

He has come after every single

Woman in this game.

britney turned into a

Firecracker.

She's definitely got something

In her pants.

Brendon is definitely pissing

People off right now.

Brendon is on the block.

That's a bad move to tempt the

Fate.

everyone everyone is

Fighting.

I don't understand.

They should be fighting us.

they don't know about us.

we're specialops.

We're, like, in under cover.

they can't figure out the

Laws of physics in here, that

There's a brigade, and he

Doesn't understand the center of

Gravity in this house, the

Brigade.

That's what happens when you

Have the goats, you know.

The brigade is absolutely

Running the house right now.

You've got lane controlling

Britney.

You have matte controlling

Ragan.

You add it all up, we decide who

Stays and who goes.

Everyone's always like it's

These two, it's that two, but

It's never us four.

We're hanging out here.

I don't even give a [ bleep ] if

Anyone sees us anymore.

looking at britney and how

Pissed off she was, and then

Looking at him, and how proud of

Himself, like, I could not hold

It in.

I do not want him to think that

He can run all over me because

He can't.

The plan was rachel, but after

That speech, it's brendon.

yup, and that's what we do.

All week long the target has

Been to get rachel out of the

House.

Everyone has been totally behind

That.

But now brendon acting the way

He did at the veto meeting has

Made people in the house rethink

Their position.

I'm voting out rachel.

and I think brendon just dug

His own grave.

what about you, ragan?

what?

what have you been doing?

hanging out.

I went over to talk to

Britney and ragan, because

Brendon and I had thought that

It's a good idea for me to try

To be friendly with the other

People in the house so that way

I have a better chance of

Getting the votes to stay in the

House.

Basically, all I want to say is

That I don't know what happened.

We were friends and--

you don't know what happened?

that's not what I'm trying to

Say.

I'm not trying to attack you or

Anything, like I I just--

okay, rachel, I'm just goings

To stop you now and I'm not

Meaning to be mean or anything

Like that.

We clearly operate on two

Different levels.

A lot of the behavior I've

Witnessed over the past couple

Of weeks makes no sense to me.

like what behavior?

all of the theaterrics.

I know there's been one common

Denominator in every argument

That's been had in this house.

and what is that?

you.

You've been involved in every

Single one of those arguments.

I haven't attacked anyone.

screami at people that

They're going to go home.

who did that?

well, saying floaters grab a

Life vest.

so what you're saying is

That, is that I am at the center

Of every single dramatic event

And that I'm the one that's not

Playing this game in a good way.

I'm saying that I don't think

That you're a good sport.

there's nothing I can say to

You, ragan, that you're going to

Listen to.

So I'm sorry.

I will bow out, and I apologize

That I am the bad person and the

Bad guy.

And I'm sorry...

she does not live on this

Planet.

I know.

Oh, my god, the neanderthal is

Marching.

Oh, my god, he's marching over

Here.

hey, what's going on?

Ragan, what are you trying to

Say to her?

I mean, what's going on.

I'm not trying to [ bleep ]

Her up, brendon.

you went from being like her

Best friend to being an

[ bleep ] to her.

I'm not being a [ bleep ]--

you have been [ bleep ]--

you're not privy to the

Conversation.

you go from being her best

Friend and stabbing her in the

Back.

how did I stab her in the

Back, brendon?

oh, because it was only

Matt's idea to try to put us up

On the block.

I had no hand whatsoever.

you're a pair, whatever you

Want to call it, man.

you're so dead on, we are,

Like, a gruesome twosome.

I

I don't know why you got so

Upset being called an alliance.

am I so upset?

you did.

I'm actually very calm.

[ bleep ].

That's what you are man.

you're an early man, you're a

Neanderthal.

first of all, it's pronounced

Neander-tal.

You're the same.

Seriously, are you l.A. To the

"t."

Seriously.

oh, you're one to talk.

keep me, keep me, please,

Because I'll win h.O.H. And I'll

Watch all you c*ck

Scramble?

who's all?

you, you, him.

just us two?

him the!

All three of you.

yeah.

good night.

yeah!

Yeah, brendon yeah.

reall

do it.

Upon.

three foot nothing.

oh, three foot nothing, you

Think I'm scared.

yeah, exactly.

exactly, noct.

Exactly-- okay, you're so cool.

what he did today is going to

[ bleep ] make him leave.

He doesn't know what he's doing,

Brendon.

He has nobody in this house.

it's smart for to us keep

Him.

It's way smatter.

The poor guy, he's got nothing.

if we keep brendon, there's a

Huge target on his back.

Also, he's not as good of a

Competitor as rachel, which

Means other people are going to

Win h.O.H. And they're going to

Try it take him out and buys me

And the brigade at least one

More week in the house.

I think if we keep raich nel

This house, she could do a lot

Of dirty work, man.

do you trust rachel 100%?

that's what I'm saying.

I don't know.

We're just kind of, like more

Worried about rachel because of

The h.O.H. [ bleep ].

Rachel say real strong

Competitor.

He's great with the h.O.H.S.

If you leave rachel in the house

And you don't align with her,

Now you have a real dangerous,

Strong competitor on the loose.

if rachel leaves, he's done.

He'll want to go home, too.

it's amazing, we've wanted to

Get rid of him since week one

And now we have the chance and

We're going to keep him.

ultimately, it comes down to

Who is going to help the brigade

More and who is going to be the

Bigger theft threat if we leave

Them in the house.

It's a tough call.

I mean, who do we go after?

julie: Coming up, brendon

And rachel, tonight their

Showmance comes to an end.

And later, we'll hear from

Brendon's former fiance.

What does she think of her ex's

Newest girl?

Stay with us.

julie: Welcome back.

Ragan is coming to the end of

His first week as the new

Saboteur.

So far, he's managed to go

Undetected.

So what will his next

Treacherous act be?

ragan, please go to the diary

Room.

so let's see what america has

In store for me now.

My hope it's that it's to do

Something horrible to brendon.

Icleo facebook recommended-- oh,

I miss facebook-- that I should

Take britney's favorite bikini,

Get it wet, and put it in the

Freezer.

The problem with that is that

Britney is so smoking hot that

Even if you gave her an ice cold

Bikini is would suddenly become,

Like, summery and warm and

Fierceness.

So that's not going to work.

Kevin on facebook thinks they

Should create paranoia that the

Voted out person isn't leaving.

I like this one because

Something like this would really

Stir up a lot of emotions and

Paranoia in th house.

I love it.

saboteur!

yeah!

hello, houseguests.

hello.

hello.

worried about the eviction?

Don't sweat this decision too

Much.

It disfnt matter which person

You vote out.

Because they might not really be

Gone.

True love does conquer all.

oh!

Well, that suction.

all right, well, I'm going to

Go back to bed.

[ laughter ].

the saboteur's message said

Brendon and I might have a

Chance to stay in the house

Together, and oh, my god!

I am freaking out.

These houseguests tried to get

Between me and my man, and you

Don't get between me and my man.

And the saboteur is making sure

Of that.

they're not necessarily both

Going home.

so right now, I have the

Diamond power of veto.

The only way that I can think of

That brendon and rachel could be

Safe in this house right now is

If one of them has some other

Crazy power and, I mean, it

Blows my mind because someone

Else uses their crazy power, my

Nominations change, things are

Going crazy in the "big brother"

House.

the saboteur is doing his

Thing now.

I love it!

These houseguests have no idea

That I am the one responsible

For taking this house, turning

It upside down, and shaking it

Around.

And now I'm one step closer to

The 20 grand.

Thank you for the awesome

Suggestion, america.

julie: Let's go to the

Living room and talk with the

Houseguests.

Hi, everybody!

hi, julie!

julie: All right, let me

Take you all back to one week

Ago to the head of household

Competition.

You all really showed your true

Colors, some more than others.

Take a look.

you ain't right, big bro.

I got some in my nose.

yeah!

pow!

yeah!

oh!

"big brother" is getting my

Laundry bill.

oh!

julie: Lane, how difficult

Was that competition?

it was very difficult.

My whole body was shaking.

I was hoping you would hurry

And-- I was about to fall off

Before it even started.

julie: You're a big guy.

yeah.

julie: Matt, let me turn

To you, this week you were faced

With the choice of opening

Pandora's box.

I did.

julie: Was it a difficult

Decision, and was the risk worth

The reward?

it was not a difficult

Decision to open it because I

Have no impulse control, but the

Risk was definitely not worth

The reward.

julie: Kathy, let me turn

To you now.

You took out rachel in the veto

Competition, but you paid for it

Afterwards when she confronted

You for celebrating it.

right.

julie: Why didn't you

Think you owed her an apology?

I didn't owe her an apology

Because she picked me because

She thought I was weak.

And that was her strategy on

Picking me.

And when I beat her, I was

Celebrating because I won.

And I didn't feel like I owed

Her an apology.

For celebrating that I won.

julie: All right.

Well, I want to take this moment

To congratulate all of you.

You have all madet to the

Halfway point in the game.

[ applause ]

Give yourself a little bit of

Applause.

That's right.

That means seven of you will

Ultimately be sitting on the

Jury voting to determine the

Winner of "big brother."

And two of you will vie for the

Half million dollar grand prize.

So let me ask each of you,

Without naming rachel or brendon

Brendon, because they're already

On the block, tell me quickly--

And I just want a name-- who you

Think is the most underestimated

Player left in the game.

Matt, I'm going to start with

You.

uh... Kathy.

[ laughter ].

julie: Lane, who would you

Say?

ragan.

julie: Britney?

ragan.

ragan.

julie: Ragan?

Who would you say, ragan?

oh, me.

julie: Yes.

me.

[ laughter ]

julie: Kathy, who would

You say?

ragan.

julie: Hayden?

I think it's britney.

julie: Rachel?

I think everyone's

Underestimated.

I'd like to see them compete

Harder.

julie: Oh!

Brendon, how about you?

I'd definitely go with

Britney as well.

julie: All right.

Well, thank you, houseguests.

I'll be back to talk with you

Again a little bit later.

Coming up, brendon's given up

His game for his girl and his

Ex-fiance has seen it all

Before.

Then, the showmance comes to an

End.

The live vote and eviction next.

Stay with us.

[ cheers and applause ]

julie: Welcome back to

"big brother."

He's emotional, he's passionate,

And it just might cost him the

Game.

But it's a side of brendon his

Ex-fiance knows all too well.

I know that I was meant to be

Here to help you get further in

This game.

I believe that.

I believe that in my heart.

And you're worth it.

You are once in a lifetime.

I wouldn't do anything to

Jeopardize your safety.

I love you.

I really just don't like when

People try to mess with me.

I love when she rejects him.

my gosh, and she hasn't even

Said "I love you" once.

take a drink.

I was engaged to brendon for

Six months.

But we were together almost two

Years.

I broke up with brendon because

He was trying to change who I

Was.

Everything that he has said to

Rachel, I have heard numerous

Times.

How com.

how come you're allowed to

Keep secrets from me--

I'm not keeping secrets from

You!

oh, my gosh.

gosh, it's deja vu.

yeah, it's deja vu.

brendon was going to be my

Future son-in-law.

He lived in our house for eight

Months.

He's very emotional.

I know, rachel!

I know, I know!

no, I don't think you do.

he's dramatic.

I'm sorry, it's just, my

Feelings are hurt and I want to

Tell you because I thought I

Could talk to you.

seriously, how am I supposed

To react?

just hug me and say it's ok

Okay.

when my family and I sit

There and we watch the show we

Are so grateful and thankful

That she didt marry him.

brendon, why are you being

Such a butt-head.

because you're none stop

About vegas.

I'm not in vegas.

I'm not going to be in vegas.

That's not me.

well, I'm sorry,

Quintessential rachel is vegas.

stop, don't walk away from

Me.

I don't know if you are trying

To push my butons.

I don't get it.

brendon, I am vegas.

brendon doesn't want you to

Be yourself.

He wants you to be who he wants.

He wants a girl to fall in love

With him on the basis of how he

Acts.

we're going to get split up.

I can't stay here by myself.

I told you I would protect

You.

It's what a knight does.

you're so surreal.

I am.

I would tell rachel to

Prepare for the emotional roller

Coaster with brendon because

It's going to be all about him.

So she has to be prepared to be

Emotionally drained.

I'm being a drama queen.

Just let me be one.

I'm totally team rachel.

I think rachel has a strong

Personality.

I think she's very feisty, and I

Just think right now she's

Blinded by his good looks, so I

Just hope she comes and sees the

Light.

julie: It's time for the

Live voting to begin.

Will brendon succeed in keeping

His girl in the game or is

Rachel just too big of a threat

To keep around?

Let's return to the living room

And find out.

Brendon, rachel, in just a few

Moments your housemates will

Cast their votes to evict live,

But before they do, you each

Have one last chance to plead

Your case.

Rachel, you're first.

okay.

I've wanted this so bad, this

Whole "big brother" experience,

And I fought really, really hard

This whole time to be here.

And thank you guys for the

Competition, and I'm really

Grateful for being here with you

Guys.

We've made it to the halfway

Point.

Brendon, you've become my best

Friend, my true love, my partner

In crime.

And no matter how many days we

Spend apart, you're always going

To be in my heart.

And I love you.

julie: Thank you, rachel

Brendon, it's your turn.

I've learned a lot in this

"big brother" season.

One thing I did learn, you open

Pandora's box, you win probably

$10,000.

You lie to your houseguests

About it, because we know "big

Brother" can't search through

Your things.

Maybe you're fake.

Maybe you're ingenuine.

But that's not what it's about.

It's about being who are you,

Being a competitor.

It's about being feisty.

It's about being fun.

It's about being genuine.

It's about being unique.

I have fought in here and I've

Got alongside the most amazing

Person I have met in my life and

In doing so, I fell completely

In love with her and I have

Found a new best friend and I

Found out what it must have been

Like to vaib witch back in salem

During the 1600s, to have been

Persecuted for, really, just

Being who you are.

After all, that I would not

Trade it for anything.

I love you very much, rachel,

And whatever you guys decide, if

You decide to keep me here, I

Will fight to the death.

and will avenge anyone who

Has wronged her.

Thank you.

julie: Thank you, brendon.

Thank you, both.

It is time for the live voting

To begin.

Neither nominee is allowed to

Vote.

Cast your vote to evict.

The houseguests were scared of

Me as a competitor, and I'm

Really not that shocked.

julie: You didn't say

Anything to anyone except a

Good-bye to brendon.

Why not?

um--

julie: You've never been

At a loss for words before.

I've never been at a loss for

Words, but, you know what?

I mean, they got me and I have

To say that they're scared of

Me.

I've done nothing but fight and

I have nothing else to say.

I've made it this far.

I've fought with my heart, and

I've had a great experience and

I'm so grateful to be in the

House.

julie: Why do you think

Brendon's plan didn't work?

He made a bold move at the veto

Meeting, hoping to become the

Target.

Why do you think it didn't work?

I think that-- I honestly

Think they're just scared of me

As a competitor, and maybe they

Thought that they could just get

Brendon out next week or-- I

Don't know.

I'm shocked.

I actually am shocked.

julie: In the last 41

Days, we've seen this romance

Blossom between and you brendon.

What does the future hold for

The two of you?

um, I don't know.

I'll probably move to l.A.

And we'll make it work and make

It happen.

julie: Well initiate event

You were the one evicted

Tonight, your housemates taped

Some good-bye messages.

Let's listen.

hey, rach, vegas, baby.

If you're seeing this, I'm sorry

You had to leave this week.

You kind of got sucked into the

Brendon vortex for a while, got

A little bitchy and moody for a

While.

I don't know if that was a

Female thing.

honestly, I wish we were on

The same team.

You're such an amazing

Competitor.

It didn't happen and because of

That I had to vote you out of

The house.

probably the thing I'll miss

Most about you, rachel is your

Hair extensions.

I'm going to miss putting them

On to be the new rachel-- who

Wants to see me go into the jury

House!

Whoo!

Tequila.

rachel, unfortunateliure your

Showmance with brendon is what

Got you kicked out.

But you know what, if what you

Guys have is real, like you tell

Me, it's probably going to be

Worth a lot more than half a

Million dollars.

you're something that comes

Along once in a lifetime, once

In 10 million lifetimes.

It's going to be harder for it

Me now because you are gone.

But I'm going to try.

I'm going to be fighting for

Both of us, and everyone that

Was mean to you and targeted us

For falling in love, I will take

Revenge am, and I will get out

Of this game.

I proms.

-- Promise.

julie: Rachel you're off

To the jury house now, but this

May not be the last you've seen

Of the "big brother" house.
