23x23 - Episode 23

[bunniefuu]

Announcer: previously on "big brother"...

The powerful cookout alliance was operating completely

Undetected.

Under no circumstances can there be any whiff of

An idea that members of the cookout are working together.

Announcer: and each had an oblivious partner

Outside the group to get them further in the game.

If one of the duo's ends up on the block, the

Cookoff has the numbers to help us stay safe.

Xavier has won the golden power veto.

Announcer: and punishment.

B.b. Bankruptcy, strategy shutdown, to

Become the third nominee at the next opportunity.

Announcer: after xavier pulls himself from the block.

I decided to use the power of veto on myself.

Announcer: head of household sarah beth

Backdoored baby "d."

Please take a seat.

Announcer: before the live votes, derek x. Put

S. B. On blast.

If I stay, I will promise I will take this

Person out and I will be your biggest shield.

Announcer: but it wasn't enough to prevent a

Derek x. Exit.

By a vote of -, baby "d," you are evicted from

The "big brother" house.

Announcer: with the power back up for grabs --

Julie: derek f. And kyland, reset and step down.

Announcer: tiffany got her first win of the summer.

Julie: congratulations to you, tiffany.

You're the new head of household.

Inside are different denominations of b.b. Bucks.

Announcer: with only nine remaining in the

Battle for three-quarters of a million dollars, who

Will tiffany target for eviction?

But will the coin of destiny end the former

Queen's reign early?

Find out right now on "big brother"!

He's a player, player, okay?

♪♪

Julie: good night houseguests.

Good night, julie!

[Yelling] [cheering]

Ahh, I did it.

I feel amazing!

Finally, I can win something in this house!

It is your new h.o.h., Guys, it's me.

[Whispering]

Ultimately, I decided it was not worth risking the cookout to save derek

X., Even though I really wanted to.

I love that kid.

♪♪ ♪♪

Yes!

Oh, my gosh!

We're freaking out.

I'm so proud of tiffany.

I'm so excited.

I've been on the block for two weeks, and finally

My tightest ally in this game is h.o.h.

I can finally take a deep breath because I'm not

Going to hit this dang block this week.

As long as queen of destiny doesn't screw us over.

This week should be fantastic.

Don't make me cry.

Don't even make me cry.

I know.

I know.

I know.

[Whispering] I know.

He will understand once he sees everything.

Does that make sense?

I know.

I know, baby.

I know.

I don't get it.

[Whispering] they're working

Together already.

Stay focused because you have to play a good role this week.

Yep.

♪♪ He is just...

He is just such a genuine guy, and I don't regret sending him home.

He was the biggest threat at this time to the six

Completing our mission.

However, it doesn't mean that I'm fot not sad about it.

At the end of the day, we're doing it.

We're almost there.

We're almost there.

Yep.

Did you hear the speeches?

I didn't hear anything.

There is someone in this house that is playing

A nicole game.

I'm her biggest threat in this game.

If I stay, I will take this person out.

You never know how people are going to respond to it.

I mean, I can't lie.

Derek's speech was hurtful, even though it does

Hurt to hear, I just have to stick to my g*ns

And remember what I came here for.

I've got to pull myself together and act like I'm

Totally comfortable with tiffany winning, if it is hard.

I did keep tiffany off the block.

She was never an option for me at any point.

So hopefully that will mean something to tiffany.

How do you feel with tiffany being in charge?

Um...

I don't know. Yeah.

I really don't know how I feel.

I mean, I don't know how to feel.

I know she can't nominate me because I'm already up there.

I was really hoping that kyland, alyssa or

Xavier would win this h.o.h., Because we formed

An alliance a few days ago called the monarchy.

I feel ready to start fresh at this point, and I

Want to work with the two of you.

Did you guys want to make it official, official,

Like a name?

Oh, a name.

What should we do? The monarchy.

The monarchy.

♪♪ Look at your ivy league shirt.

How are you? I'm okay.

[Whispering] I'm not going --

I'm already on the block. Oh, yeah.

You know, with me being the third nominee and now

Tiffany being in power, I just -- I don't really

Like my odds this week.

Not!

Not working, the monarchy, those are all good and

Well, but my heart is most true to the cookout.

Unfortunately anybody who is not a member of the

Cookout, is going to have to go.

Would they put me up there with someone else?

Possibly. Possibly.

Like me and big "d"?

Oh!

We worked hard.

They could do the three kings.

I'm sure if one of us goes home --

Uh-huh.

True.

Well, no, it doesn't.

That's true.

The queen of destiny is pretty crazy for a power.

You get to win a chance to overthrow the h.o.h.

This is absolutely huge.

This is the biggest power that has ever been in the game.

It is going to be a week of work.

♪♪ I hope I'm ready for this.

You're ready.

You're ready. Okay.

Kyland should expect the go.

He said winner duo is nominated, and we're

Nominated as the duo.

It just makes sense.

Sending sarah beth home has been on my mind for weeks.

She has no loyalty to anyone in this house, that

Includes me as well.

♪♪ [Whispering]

You're one of those persons.

If that makes sense for you --

What is -- I don't really want to

Go on the block, but we're at the point in the game

Now where I can't protect sarah beth any longer

Without jeopardizing the cookout.

What will it like if you do her wrong?

There is no way.

You're ready to go. You're ready.

Yeah. Yeah.

How are things?

[Whispering]

I got up there. I looked down and saw his bracelet.

And that was, like, good for you.

[Whispering] I feel so guilty.

I feel so guilty.

It's all part...

"X" was going to go through it, I was going to

Go through it, I'm going to go through it.

He chose us before we chose anybody us, and we

Have unselfishly played for each other.

I know.

And people will be hurt along the way, but he is a

Great person -- he is so amazing.

And he will still be your friend.

I really hope he can forgive me.

Get it together, hannah [sobbing].

I feel awful and I feel so guilty for sending him home.

If not for the cookout, he would definitely be my

Number one in his game because he had my back.

You are very smart.

You are very intelligent.

You have such a bright future.

I am just so happy to have met you in this house.

You are just like my family.

Hold that door open.

You're a bad b*tch. I'm a bad b*tch.

Don't think I'm coming in here because I've got

Money, so I ain't worried.

Whoa, nellie!

I'm happy you finally got your moment.

As soon as I heard tiffany, I'm oh, my gosh!

How are you feeling? I feel good. I'm glad.

Absolutely. It's good.

Other people may have the possibility of playing,

But I want to make sure that the people I want to

Turn to -- I think if you and a couple of other

People can have that opportunity.

There can be an anonymous h.o.h. This

Week, and if there is, I would rather it be

Somebody I'm working with and not change my

Nominations.

I know d derek x. Has the money.

We may fight like siblings, but we are

Working together.

I do want you to play, and I want you to play to win.

You got it.

I'm doing everything you tell me to do.

Okay.

Hold on -- no, no, no.

Not just trusting everything I'm doing.

Actually, you can do whatever you want to do

Because I trust you. Oh, gosh.

Do you believe he's a pawn?

Honestly, girl, I don't trust you.

Me and tiffany have been going at it all season.

If it wasn't for the cookout, trust me, your

Aass would be gone.

I would make sure you were gone.

Don't worry about it.

Thank you.

Yep, you got it.

♪♪ [Whispering]

What's up?

Congratulations. Thank you. Thank you.

How do you feel about playing destiny or your

Ability to be able to play?

I will have a chance.

It is possible that I could end up quitting.

The only way I could afford to play the coin of

Destiny is if america gave me b.b. Bucks and I

Have b.b. Bucks in my envelope.

I mean, who knows would could happen.

But tiffany doesn't need to know that.

If she thinks there is a potential I could play in

The queen of destiny, maybe she'll think twice

About putting me and kyland on the block.

He is still my friend, so I'm still a little

Emotional about him walking out the door.

We had a really tight bond since day two.

It is not a shot that I -- I don't understand why you took it.

It really put me in a situation because it is

Clear there are no guys fighting for me in this game.

Right. I'm over here relying on myself.

It did jeopardize my game indirectly, and it is,

Like, okay, we didn't k*ll you, but we cut off your legs.

I didn't realize that sending "x" what make you

Feel like I cut off your legs.

I guess that kind of surprised me to hear you say that.

The "x" was never coming for me.

I appreciate you being honest with me.

If I were to be safe this week, then I don't have

Any incentive to go after you.

It is obvious that tiffany is not happy that

Derek x. Left.

I'm hoping that I can convince her that I didn't

Send derek x. Home to weaken her game -- even

Though that is not exactly true.

I will definitely run some scenarios in my head

And figure out what is best for me to do moving forward.

Who wants to see my h.o.h. Card!

[Applause and cheering] ♪♪

[Yelling] [cheering]

Thanks, guys!

Yay!

Let me see, let me see, let me see!

Oh, my gosh, he is so cute.

Okay, c'mon!

Look at my baby, he's in high school.

I've never seen this. We've got new pictures.

Okay. Okay. Okay.

Oh!

[Screaming] yes, yes, yes!

Oh, my gosh, I'm going to cry.

All right. We are ready for your letter.

I am not going to cry.

Okay. You got it.

Hi, tiffany.

Congratulations.

We are truly proud of you and praying for your win and safety.

Christian is loving his new high school, and he is

Doing marvelous in band.

We love you so much.

Do what you need to do to win.

You are a winner always.

You are truly missed.

Stay happy and focused.

You can do this. We are rooting for you.

Love you, mom, pat, and christian."

[Applause and cheering] oh, my gosh.

For those guys who don't know who mama pat

Is, she is my grandmother, but she raised me.

She is such a wonderful woman.

She is a teacher, she adopts kids and brings them home.

She has so much love.

She is my heart and my inspiration to my life.

I think the only thing I ever really want to hear

Her say is that she proud of me.

I am playing my entire game to make mama pat

Proud and to make a life and a future for christian

And myself.

She is so proud of you.

Hi, mama pat! Hi, mama pat!

What's up?

Um, obviously going off our conversation earlier,

I just think we said -- there are a few more

Things I wanted to say.

After my first conversation with tiffany,

She made it clear she is considering targeting me

And kyland.

I just want to do averring everything I can to see if

I can get her to look at other people.

Maybe he was really close to winning this last

H.o.h., And he missed it, and you had a very visible reaction.

You looked really disappointed, which I was, like, you...

I saw how close she was.

Really? I didn't see.

I don't even remember that, but --

That's just the type of player alyssa is.

I know she lies to other people --

It seems like she has a lot of sides.

. Don't want you to think I have loyalty to her.

I do not.

Oh, s.b., I hate this game sometimes.

I know, I hate it, too.

I generally appreciate what you're telling me.

She is very convincing.

I mean, she ran alyssa over with the bus.

Alyssa is in the i.c.u. Right now.

That's how hard sarah beth came to get alyssa on the block.

And I seriously cannot believe that I'm saying

This, but with the coin of destiny in play, I may

Have to look at some other options.

Dang, she is going to be second-guessing it.

♪♪ Hey, guys.

It is time for the nomination ceremony.

♪♪ ♪♪

This is the nomination ceremony.

Xavier, because you chose the third nominee

Punishment and last week veto competition, you are

Now on the block as the third nominee.

It is now my responsibility as the head

Of household to nominate two other houseguests for eviction.

In my nomination block are the keys of the

Houseguests I am nominating for eviction.

I will turn two keys to lock in my nominations and

Their faces will appear on the memory wall.

The first houseguest I have nominated is...

♪♪ The next houseguest I

Have nominated is...

I have nominated you, kyland, and you, sarah beth.

You two make up a very powerful duo in this house.

This week I need to make an optimal move to excel

My own personal game, and this is the decision that

I have made.

And I wish you both luck.

This nomination ceremony is adjourned.

♪♪

I have nominated kyland and sarah beth, but just in case anyone missed it,

Sarah beth is my target.

I am not going to miss taking this shot at sarah

Beth to nominate alyssa.

I'll get alyssa next time.

My plan is all in place.

However, nothing is for certain, especially with

The coin of destiny.

Someone could come and totally overthrow my

Nomination and save sarah beth.

I don't know who would want to do that, but they

Would become my new target.

Hey!

Sorry.

Sorry.

I know.

We're not mortal enemies.

It is not really a surprise to see myself nominated.

Tiffany and I spoke, and we know it makes the most

Sense for me to be on the block.

I watched britini and zaha lose,

But that does not make this feel any less painful.

Nobody likes duos in "big brother," but I can't

Sit here but hurt.

I'm nominated next to kyland.

But the last time I was nominated, I had another

Chance to possibly come off the block, and maybe

Kyland could come off with me due to the coin of destiny.

So hope is not completely lost.

♪♪ ♪♪

I'm still trying to get out of that kitchen.

I was, like, I hope nobody sees me.

Let me hide here.

I know. I know how it feels.

You guys are a powerful duo to me.

Kyland specifically.

You just happen to be very close to him.

I know you would save him.

I know you would fight for him, so the best

Opportunity for me to have a shot is for him to not have the help.

I think that makes complete sense if kyland is your target.

Then it only makes sense for me to go up beside him.

I am lying to sarah beth.

Obviously sarah beth is my target, but I don't want

To let her know that so she doesn't fight so hard.

Is it going to be known kyland is the target?

I haven't talked to anyone specifically about

What my goal is at the end of this week.

I really appreciate how candid you've been

About the whole situation.

Even if it is not the news that I wanted, it is still

Better to know what is going on than to feel like

You're in the dark, and you didn't have to do

That, so I do appreciate that.

If it is going to be me or kyland, obviously I

Would rather it be him than me.

Tiffany could be lying to me to try to make me

Comfortable, but even if kyland is the target, it

Doesn't mean the rest of the house is going to do

What she wants. So

I'm definitely still in danger.

Hey! Houseguests!

I need everyone together in the living room!

The high rollers' room is about to open for the

Last time.

Since the desh we veto in chopping block roulette

Has been won, both games are now closed.

This week if you have enough b.b. Bucks in your

Bank account, you can try to win the coin of destiny.

The winner of this powerful coin will force

The current head of household into a coin flip

For power.

If the winner of the coin calls this toss correctly,

They will immediately dethrone me and secretly

Take over all of my powers for the week.

That means, sarah beth and kyland, you could be

Removed from the chopping block.

And remember: the new head of household will be

Completely anonymous, which means they'll name

Their nominees in secret and play as h.o.h. From

The shadows.

Xavier, since you are nominated as as a result

Of taking a punishment, unfortunately, you will

Not be removed from the block if I'm dethroned.

As the dethroned h.o.h., I will be safe, but everyone

Else is eligible to be nominated for eviction this week.

It is now time to head to the high rollers' room.

We'll go in one by one and find out how much america

Gave us this week, and how many b.b. Bucks are in or envelopes.

[Applause and cheering] of all of the powers in

The high rollers' room, the coin of destiny is the

Biggest one yet.

I'm just hoping that whoever wins does not

Derail my plans of sending sarah beth home this week.

Sarah beth has got to go!

Azah, welcome back to the high rollers' room.

In addition to the b.b.

Bucks, we have a randomly shows envelope that

Contains or b.b. Bucks.

If you have b.b.

Bucks, you can compete to win b.b.'S coin of destiny.

If successful, they become the new secret h.o.h.

And they have a chance to overthrow tiffany's nomination.

But they will also be ineligible to be h.o.h. Next week.

Please scan your card to see how many b.b. Bucks

America gives to you.

You received b.b. Bucks. Hey, america, really?

Please open your envelope.

Thanks, america.

Oh, !

Your grand total is b.b. Bucks.

Not bad.

Sorry, you do not have enough b.b. Bucks to play

Coin of destiny. That's okay.

I need to talk to you real quick. Okay.

Since the winner of queen of destiny would act

As the secret h.o.h., They would no longer be

Eligible to play in next week's h.o.h. Competition.

I would like claire to win queen of destiny.

That ensures all three members of the cookout

Will be playing in next week's game.

[Whispering] she is ineligible.

I feel very confident in the decision to have claire play.

She has been by my side since day one.

She would keep my nominations the same.

I would rather be able to play in this upcoming

H.o.h. Because, duh, I could be h.o.h. Two weeks in a row.

Who wouldn't want that?

You have to think about america who watches this show.

Oftentimes america roots for the person who is

Targeted by the whole house.

Her chances of getting are probably % from the envelope.

So then everybody is going to play.

I am going to play because I don't anybody to

Do anything messing around with your week.

But then you're not going tob to be able to --

That's fine.

Thank you, america!

Your grand total is b.b. Bucks.

Sure sarah beth does not win.

No more lies, sarah beth, this is it.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!
