23x12 - Episode 12

[bunniefuu]

-Announcer: previously on "big brother"...

In a battle for three-quarters of a million dollars,

The houseguests were playing in teams.

And the royal flush alliance

Between the kings, the queens,

And one of the aces was dominating.

-I like the royal flush alliance.

-Announcer: there was also the six-person

Cookout alliance flying totally under the radar.

-We can't have any rain on the cookout.

We all have to stick together, we've all got to make sure

We're grilling everybody else, not each other.

-Announcer: with targets shifting,

It seemed everyone wanted to g*n for the kings.

-I would like one of them to go.

-No matter what,

One member of the kings has to go.

-Announcer: but when christian became

Head of household...

-Julie chen: congratulations!

You are the new head of household.

You and your entire team are now safe for the week.

-Announcer: ...it was the kings who

Would be calling the shots.

-We're so bad. We're so bad.

-Announcer: whitney and hannah were

On christian's hit list.

-I think we have to put both of them up.

-Announcer: putting xavier

In an awkward spot.

-Hannah is my baby sister

In this game and a member of the cookout,

And so it puts me in a very tricky situation.

I'm always in tricky situations in this damn house.

-Announcer: at the final wild card comp

Of the season...

-[Bell rings] -announcer: claire punched

Her ticket to jury.

-I'm going to take safety for just myself.

Individual safety until jury.

I have to go for that. Of course.

-Announcer: with the royal flush wanting

To solidify nominees...

-Whitney and hannah makes a lot of sense.

-I think the target should be hannah.

-Announcer: ...the cookout tried to shield

Hannah from the line of fire.

-I think there's somebody else

That's more of a threat to both of our teams,

And that's britini.

-Announcer: ...which raised red flags

With sarah beth.

-I am so frustrated that

The other people in my alliance

Don't see hannah as the target she is.

Huge red flag.

-Announcer: the king needed a pawn

So he held court with hannah.

-You'd stay over whitney.

-So, you're saying I'm going up? Just be honest.

Just be real with me.

-I can't tell you that for sure.

-Announcer: and she made promises

To ensure she wouldn't be targeted.

-You're not going up if I win, and I don't know

How many other people in this house can promise you that.

-Announcer: at the nomination ceremony...

-I've nominated you, whitney, and you, hannah.

-Announcer: ...christian had two aces

Up his sleeve.

-There is a lot of debate on who the target will be,

Either hannah or whitney,

And my head's spinning.

-Announcer: tonight, will the power of veto

Save hannah or whitney from the block?

Plus, is the royal flush alliance

Beginning to crumble?

-Announcer: find out right now

On "big brother."

-Why do you think I'm wearing the hoodie?

I'm trying to hide a little.

[Laughing] just kidding.

♪

-This nomination ceremony is adjourned.

♪

I nominated whitney and hannah this week.

I've been told that whitney's coming after the kings,

So it made the most sense to put whitney up.

-You're a champ, you got this.

-Hannah is also on the same team as whitney, aces,

So putting her up takes away a vote from whitney.

-I feel really blindsided and backstabbed

And really confused right now.

I thought I had a good relationship with the kings.

But for some reason, I'm up on the block,

And I just honestly have no idea what's happening.

Like, coming into this, I did not expect

Things to be this difficult.

-Sorry. I'm really sorry.

-Being on the block is not ideal at all,

Point-blank, period.

But I do believe that

I am the pawn this week.

So, fingers crossed,

And if I find out that he's targeting me,

And I end up staying...

-...then I'll be coming for his neck. I don't care.

Husband, are you sad?

-Dude, what the hell is happening right now?

I was kind of expecting to see whitney's face up there,

But I was not ready to see hannah at all.

I didn't even know she was an option.

I don't want to lose a teammate this week because

That hurts my personal game.

This, honestly, is the worst-case scenario.

-Sorry, big brother.

-Right now I'm in a tough spot.

A member of the cookout is sitting on the block,

And my team never came

To a clear decision on who our target

Is going to be for this week.

I just hope I can make it

Clear to christian that it is

In his best interest to make his target whitney this week

And we can move forward while keeping hannah safe.

♪

-That went really well. -I feel so bad.

-I feel bad, but that went really well.

-I was hoping that christian and the royal flush

Would want to target hannah this week.

But we really haven't been able to come to a decision yet.

I hope now that nominations are locked,

We can all just come together

And decide on who the target should be

And, ultimately, who is best to go home.

-I personally think for my game,

Hannah is a way better target, so I'm going to fight for it.

Hannah, is what you're saying?

-Oh, gosh. Here we go again.

Are we going back and forth again?

I'm just saying, if whitney is going to be here,

She's going to be pissed.

-At the end of the day, you have to make the decision

That's best for your game.

♪

-And I guess the best way to answer your question is,

Between the two of them,

Whitney going is best for my game.

Ultimately, I decided whitney needs

To be the target because

Hannah made a very convincing argument that,

In the event she was a pawn that, moving forward,

She would not put me up in the future weeks.

So that sound like an absolutely perfect pawn to me.

-Oh, then that works. -Yeah.

-So the target this week is whitney.

-We'll do hannah next week.

-X is super happy that christian has changed his mind.

Let's keep it this way. No more changing our minds.

Let's just focus on this one target.

I see what you're doing "x"

Because you're desperate to keep hannah.

I am % upset with this decision,

But I'm smart enough to know

That if I keep pushing, I could end up

Puting a target on my back and making everyone uncomfortable.

-Love it.

-So... I'm on the block.

Bada-bing, bada-boom, whatever.

-Honestly-- -there's nothing I can do about it now.

-You're already good. -Mm-hmm.

Okay. -You're the pawn,

And she's the target. -Okay.

-If we were to vote today, -mm-hmm?

-You'd stay. For you,

The best thing is, to you, lay low.

-I'm trusting you on that.

-Of course. -Okay.

Christian tells me that I am

Just the pawn this week.

But that doesn't change things

For me because you should

Never feel too comfortable or safe in this house.

Yeah. I'm going to take the tea, and I'm going to head downstairs

And I'm going to mope just a bit.

I still need to compete my heart out for this veto because

The only way that I know

I am staying in this house for sure

Is if I'm able to take myself off the block.

-Yup. About to go home.

-Not this week.

-Knock on all the wood.

-Exactly.

-Hey.

-Do you want to talk?

-Sure.

-So on a scale of one to ,

Where are you at on the pissed off level?

-Like a ? -A ?

I'm cool with whitney.

We've become friends throughout this game,

And even though my primary loyalties

Are the cookout and the kings team,

It's not going to stop me from checking in on a friend

To make sure they're okay when this game get a little tough.

-To see my face out of everybody's,

I was like...

-Yeah.

-And you have been my favorite person in the house.

-Yeah.

-Oh, my gosh.

-So can I ask you, at any point,

Did you bring up any of our names, saying that

You were going to put us up, which we've all been told.

-That I would put you guys up?

-All of our names were brought up.

-Out of my mouth? -That's what

We were told you were saying about us.

-But I never said that. -Hey.

-I want to make sure we're on the same page.

If you were to win, who would you put up?

-I don't know.

-No matter what,

One member of the kings has to go home.

-And that's why it kind of is what it is right now.

-Well, that never happened, so...

You've literally have been my favorite person in the house.

Your name never came out of my mouth.

I feel completely shocked.

Every single person in the house

Wanted to target the kings.

So I really just don't know why I'm the scapegoat.

X is the person that I've felt the closest with.

I definitely never would've put x on the block.

But that makes a lot more sense now.

This whole time I've been like--

Just feel stupid.

-Christian can explain to you more what's going on.

-Okay, I'm going to go.

-Mm-hmm.

-[Door creaks] -hello.

-I'm sure you have a million questions.

-Well, I talked to x, and he made it all really clear.

Literally, like, your names never came out of my mouth.

-Okay. Yeah. -This is why I was so confused.

-People came to me saying that you would put up me.

-My name specifically, or my team?

-Whitney's always the one who's talking.

Like, she literally said to me, "if they lose we should

All go for the kings," as she said to me.

She was definitely coming for you.

-So, like, I'm just extremely confused.

I'm not upset with you if you did hear those things.

Like, I get it. I just--

Like...

-I'm so sorry. -It's not your fault.

I just, like, feel confused.

-I brought some-- I don't have any tissues.

I got you some toilet paper.

Whitney keeps denying that she threw

Our names out, but I know she's lying.

She really would put me up if she had the choice.

I know that's the truth.

I really do hate to see her cry,

But she has to go this week.

I would be upset.

You have a complete right to be upset.

-I never said your name, though.

If I am christian's target,

Like, I have a good feeling I am,

Then I have to win this veto

Or there's a really good chance that I'm going home.

-It really is, just, it's a game.

It's nothing personal at all.

-I literally thought that I was friends with you guys.

♪

-Do, do, do, do, do.

-Nice backflip.

Super casual christian walks out into the backyard

Does a backflip while we're doing water arobic workouts.

Casual. Right?

Christian, I have a curiosity question for you.

Have you ever tried burpee backflips?

-So, push up? -Push up when

You come up, back flip when you go down.

-No. I'll try it.

-See, you can do a backflip, though,

Which is something I can't do.

-Yeah.

Yeah. Yes! Yeah! -Oh, my gosh!

-Dude, yes! Get that height.

Get that height up. -Whoo!

-Go up, go up. -Holy crap!

Yes! -One more! One more!

-Whoo! -Yes!

-Oh, my gosh

-[Applause]

-One backflip burpee would have been impressive.

But six backflip burpees, are you kidding me?

I can barely do six burpees as it is.

Christian is an absolute athletic beast,

But if he isn't careful

He's going to be flipping on everybody's radar.

-You're incredible, christian.

That was extremely impressive.

♪

-Where'd you learn to do this?

Or is this from doing makeup and stuff?

-Funsies.

-I'm very protective over my big brother.

-She should be. -I would treat him very well.

-I have a little middle school crush on xavier

And I don't like to share.

Whitney has been a target for me since week one,

And she spends a little too much time with him,

In my small opinion.

-I thought I was reciprocating a massage.

-I'm coming back for you.

-Is it kind of petty I want her out of the house?

Absolutely.

Call me petty, but I guess that's what I am.

♪

-What do you mean?

-Why?

-Okay.

You feel like a little kid? -Yes.

-Why? -I feel like I'm in middle school.

-Okay. What, do you have a secret?

-No, it's not a secret.

I don't think it's secret. -What?

What?

-Oh, snap! -Stop it.

You knew already.

-On me? -Shut up.

I feel like a little kid...

-Azah is stunning.

She looks like a goddess.

Her personality is amazing.

But I didn't come here for a showmance.

I'm not a hopeless showmantic, okay?

I came here for $,.

I can't get caught in my feels.

I have to keep my eyes on the prize.

Operation nomance has not changed.

-I want her out.

-Whoever's got to go, has got to go.

So whitney's the target, and that's that.

-Okay. -So everybody should be good.

Your team isn't getting touched. Nobody else is getting touched.

It is what it is. -Even though I don't love

The fact that hannah is on the block,

I'm definitely hoping I get picked to play

In the veto competition.

And I'm also definitely hoping

That veto is not used at all.

Because if christian has to pick a replacement nomination,

That leaves the jokers,

Including myself, at risk.

-Okay.

-Did you have any idea?

This is exactly what I was scared of.

I'm not on the block. So, how are you doing mentally?

-I mean, it's, like, frustrating.

How are you going to feel being in a team of two?

Without either hannah or i?

-I'm hoping I can play in this veto.

-That's true, because if you win,

You have safety and you could take one of us off.

If I could wave a magic wand

And make anything happen this week,

I would keep both hannah

And whitney safe.

This would be a crazy feat to pull off.

But the only way that it could happen

Is if I first win the veto.

This is exactly what I was scared of,

Losing numbers on our team.

-Mm-hmm.

♪

-It's a good idea to pick derek x.

To play in this veto competition if I get houseguest choice

Because I trust him.

He trusts me.

He's a strong competitor, and he's my teammate,

So why wouldn't I pick derek x.?

I wouldn't want to pick a member of the cookout.

Because that would just provoke

Suspicion from the rest of the house.

-You feel good?

-I feel as okay as you can feel

When you could possibly be going home.

-I'm a lot closer with hannah than whitney,

So if I won this veto, I would have to save hannah.

-So, that's the game plan. I'm going to fight.

♪

-For our team's sake, it does not make sense

To piss off two teams.

-Okay.

-I don't know how to deal with whitney this week

Because it's like...

[Sighs]

-I think hannah should pick you, obviously.

I would definitely tell her to.

-I think he would ask you not to.

For the royal flush it's definitely crucial

For the nominations to stay the same this week.

So I want derek x. To play in the veto

Mainly because he's known as the veto king,

And he would do what's best

For the royal flush and not try

To take hannah or whitney off the block.

The royal flush has the numbers.

So we get to control what we want to do.

-I'm in a really tricky spot right now.

I feel like I'm sandwiched between

The royal flush and the aces.

If I do win this veto, christian is going

To want me to not use it,

And keep nominations the same.

But that is not what my teammate hannah wants.

If I win, she'll definitely want me

To use it on her and take her off the block.

But before I even make that decision,

I need to get picked for this veto.

-Okay!

It's time to clean, everybody!

Let's get up and do the damn thing.

-Let's get to work. Coming back for you.

Coming back for you. -Come on, baby.

Okay. Come on. Okay. Okay. -No!

No chance. -Okay.

I'm sorry, honey!

-What's today's expiration date?

-Azah, let's go to the first bedroom.

-I'm not walking! -Azah!

-I'm not walking! Hold on. -Azah.

-Hold on. Wait. Okay. I got it. I got it. I got it.

I got it!

It's extra embarrassing falling in front of xavier

Because as you all know, I have a middle school crush on him.

But I'll fall in xavier's arms any day.

I'm fine. -It's okay.

-I'm coming. -That was the weakest moonwalk.

-That's embarrassing.

-That was-- that was something.

♪

-Hey, everybody! It's time to pick players

For the veto competition!

"Only six people

"Will participate in the veto competition:

"The head of household, the two nominees,

"And three other players

"Selected by random draw.

Will the nominees please join me up here?"

I really hope derek x.

Gets picked to play the veto today

Because he is a strong competitor that I can trust

To keep the nominations the same for the royal flush.

"As h.o.h., I will pick first."

Claire.

-Whoo.

-I'm so excited to play in this veto competition.

I don't actually need to win, though,

Because I've already won safety until jury

Because of the wildcard comp.

But I really want to keep nominations the same

And send whitney out this week.

I haven't really talked that much game with her,

And she doesn't do much for my own personal game.

So she has to go.

-I'm hoping to pick derek x.

He's on the aces, and if he were to win,

I would love for him to use the veto on me,

And then there would be no risk of me going home this week.

Houseguest choice.

-Oh!

-I pick derek x.

-[Laughter]

-Hannah chooses derek x.

Honestly, I can't help

But to feel a little bit betrayed.

She knows he would take her off.

At this point, I am on my own.

So I have to go out there and win this veto.

Azah.

-[Cheering]

-I'm so excited to get picked to play in the veto.

It's my first veto.

I really want to win

So I can ensure that no jokers get put on the block.

-I'm the only person who's not going to have played in a veto.

-Aww.

-Ugh.

-You will in the comps.

-"Big brother will inform us when

The competition is to begin."

Good luck!

-[Cheering] -yay!

♪

-Yeah.

-Did you see how she acted?

I'm trying.

When the royal flush had their meeting

Prior to nominations,

Sarah beth very adamant

That hannah should be a target.

-I think the target should be hannah.

She's, like, really close with several members of our alliance,

And as someone who's not close to her,

Y'all have to understand that scares me.

-Since hannah is a member of the cookout,

I want to give her a heads-up that she might need

To watch her back.

-Yeah.

-About me? -Yes.

-So hearing that sarah beth, who is part of the same team

As the h.o.h...

...could be targeting me this week,

Motivates me that much more

To go for the power of veto.

I don't want to take any chances

Of sarah beth trying to flip the vote against me.

Like, I need to win. It's simple. I just need to win.

We'll just watch her.

But I don't want to have to depend on derek x.

It's important that I win this veto because

The only way that I can % guarantee my safety

-Come on, whit. -The hardest part of this game

Is trying to figure out the right pressure

I'm all over the place.

-[Bell rings]

-[Bell rings]

-Oh, sh**t! -[Buzzer sounds]

-I'm finding this competition to be physically demanding.

You're running back and forth.

You have to keep your eye on the ball. You have to throw.

You might have to catch.

When I look at my board,

Goose eggs.

So I know they're not cheering for me.

-[Buzzer sounds]

-Derek x. k*lling it. Let's go.

-Everyone knows the tortoise always beats the hare.

So in this game I'd rather go

A little slower. The number one thing I have

To avoid in this comp is my ball hitting the ground

And resetting my score to zero.

-[Bell rings] -take a deep breath.

-My strategy is to go fast.

I always say speed kills and that's what's going to happen.

Speed's going to k*ll again.

-[Bell rings]

-I look at christian's scoreboard,

And I see that I'm ahead of him.

Christian is a big physical threat in the house.

I'm feeling great about this.

I might just get this.

-I notice azah and derek

Are both having fantastic stunts and I'm not.

My original plan was to go as fast as I can.

Now that I'm behind, my new plan is to go faster.

-Go, go! -Go, azah! Go, go, go!

-[Bell rings] -ah, come on, azah!

Come on!

-[Bell rings]

-Azah, take a deep breath, and then I want you to go.

-It's getting harder and harder and harder to get

That ball over the ramp.

-[Buzzer sounds] -oh! That's okay, azah.

-I tried my best to catch the ball in time,

But I missed it.

-[Buzzer sounds]

-My score has reset to zero,

And I have to start all over again.

But there's still a little bit of hope in this competition.

At any time, any of the other players

Can accidentally drop their ball and reset to zero as well.

I will not quit. I want this veto.

Keep moving. You are crushing it.

Let's go!

-It's okay, hannah. -That's okay.

-Watching my counter go back to zero,

Obviously, I'm mad about it.

-You got it, hannah -[bell rings]

Between derek x. And christian.

Unless one of them drops their ball,

I have no shot at winning.

I'm definitely rooting for derek x.

He's my teammate and my best shot

Of being taken off the block by someone else.

So, derek x., You better pull out a win

But I've got to speed up if I have

Any chance of beating christian.

-I am so close to winning,

Time is of the essence

-[Bell rings]

-[Bell rings]

-This tiny little hiccup of the ball not going over

The peak could be the difference between first and second place,

And they don't give a veto to second place.

-Go back, go back.

-My legs are on fire right now.

My heart feels like it's going to burst out of my chest,

And even my arms are losing strength, but I can't give up.

Losing is not an option.

-[Bell rings]

-I hear derek x.'S footsteps.

I have to focus, and I have to finish strong.

-[Bell rings]

-[Bell rings] -whoo!

-Congratulations, christian!

You won the golden power of veto!

Good job.

-The golden power of veto is mine once again,

Two weeks in a row. This thing is starting to like me, I think.

There's only one thing left to do--

I have to speak with the h.o.h. And see how he'd like to use it.

Oh, wait, that's me.

-Good job, derek. You were so close.

- Thanks, sb. I appreciate it.

This sucks. I wanted to win this veto

So I could decide how it was used this week,

But if everything goes according to plan,

Hannah should stay safe as a pawn.

-Yay, christian wins again for the th time.

But I'm not giving up yet.

So we'll see what happens this week.

-I don't want to be a downer but it feels like destiny

In this game is certain now. But at the same time,

Things literally can change hour by hour.

There might still be a way that

I can get myself off the block.

I just need to figure out a way to make that happen.

-You guys want eggs and bacon for breakfast?

-Yup. I'm game for that.

Part of my wants another slop diet.

-Yes. -I don't want to go back

On slop, but I want the slop body.

-I bet you guys will be able to go back on slop next week.

-Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

-What's that supposed to mean?

-You better chill with that language.

-It's still teams, and you guys can't do it

And the queens can't do it.

That means me and chaddha will have to do it.

Deduction.

-I'm such an a*s. -Ugh.

I would never say that about a teammate.

Like, the fact that he knows I'm going to go home

Makes me think that maybe there's some other

Things going on that I don't know about.

-I'm such an a*s. I'm such an a*s.

I'm such an a*s. -Your own people.

-Oh!

I'm such an idiot!

I hope whitney and I can smooth things over and that

We can be friends for the rest of the week.

But, honestly, if I was her, I wouldn't forgive myself.

Whit, I am so sorry.

-No. That was... Up. -I know, I know.

Literally, any meal you want-- -

-They were talking about slop, and he goes,

"It'll just be hannah and I on slop next week." -Damn.

I'm actually like-- I'm not even joking.

I'm actually pretty upset. -I know. I know.

-That's sad. -That means you straight up

Already know I'm going home. -Wait. I'm sorry.

-That was a d*ck move.

-I guess whitney isn't letting go of this.

Way to go, derek. That one sentence

Could have cost you $,.

I'm worried that whitney could really blow up my game,

So I need to think before I speak.

Ugh.

-Don't stress.

-That was so dumb. I just shouldn't

Have said anything at all.

-Oh, I am ready

To paint a big old target on derek x.'S back.

This is just what I needed to try to figure out

How to get myself out of this situation that I'm in right now.

Honestly, I want him out of the house now.

I'm a vengeful b*tch.

Honestly, it makes the most sense for that person

To be up on the block, but I wasn't going to say anything

Because he's my teammate. But after today? Take him out.

-Well, it is super beneficial

That the h.o.h. And the veto winner

Is the same exact person. -Yes.

-So I only have one person to talk to about it.

-Both people are in the same room.

-Yeah, this is super beneficial.

If I want to stay this week,

I need to let christian know exactly why I'm valuable

And who he really should be going after, which is derek x.

Basically, I completely understand your position.

I just-- like, I do believe that there could be

Another option to put up.

-Uh-huh. -Like, derek x.

Who has won a ton of comps,

And he is your biggest competition.

-My biggest competition, yeah.

Yeah, I mean, I'm definitely aware of...

His resume. -Yeah.

-And I'm concerned that

He may take that shot if he had...

The chance to, for sure.

-But if you did decide to put him up instead of me, like,

I really would love to work with you guys.

Honestly, like, I really do believe

In the law of reciprocation,

So if you did save me,

I hope you know I would do everything I could

To help you in return.

-I believe that, too, so--

If you were ever on the block

And I were to win the power of veto, or anything like this,

I promise I would help you.

-Yeah, I believe it, I do believe it.

Whitney's making very good points.

Derek x. Is absolutely a comp beast.

He has two veto wins.

At the same time,

Derek x. Is part of the royal flush,

And I'm not so sure I want to take a shot

At my alliance member yet.

I'm going back and forth in my head because

The last thing I want to do is miss an opportunity

To take out my biggest competition in this game.

I definitely need to think about it more.

-I get that.

-I definitely will consider it. I promise.

♪

-Hey, houseguests, it's time for the veto meeting.

♪

This is the veto meeting.

Hannah and whitney have been nominated for eviction.

But I have the power to veto one of the nominations.

I have decided...

...not to use the power of veto.

This veto meeting is adjourned.

Whitney made a good pitch to backdoor derek x.,

But I'm not ready to turn on my alliance yet.

Sorry, whitney.

You're about to get royally flushed.

-[Toilet flushing]

-Even though christian's telling me

That I'm just the pawn this week,

I do know that at least one person

Has my name in their mouth,

So I can't feel totally safe.

I need to make sure that I stay past this thursday night

Because I still have a lot of damage left

To inflict on this game.

So just you wait.

-Christian's honestly just being really dumb at this point.

Unless they're working together and I don't realize it,

Christian is losing a golden opportunity

To get out derek x.

But you're not going to catch me giving up.

I am a fighter.

And I'm going to do everything

That I can to get myself out of this position.

When I survive eviction on thursday,

You're going to see an all-new whitney.

No more miss nice girl.

[Growls]

-I'm not happy to see a member of the cookout, hannah,

On the block, but I am happy

To see whitney still on the block

Because I'm petty.

I want xavier to myself.

I'm human.

-I lost the battle

Over who should be the target this week.

But I haven't given up yet.

The w*r of who's actually being evicted has just started.

So, hannah, you're the only one

Who feels like an active threat to my game right now.

So, unfortunately, you're not safe as long as I'm here.

-Announcer: who will be evicted

From the "big brother" house?

Hannah or whitney?

Plus, an epic battle of endurance begins

Tomorrow night at :, : central

On "big brother"!
