[bunniefuu]

-Previously on "Big Brother,"

with Kyle and his Festie Bestie Daniel

winning the golden power...

-Kyle and Daniel, you have won the golden Power of Veto!

[ Cheers and applause ]

-...the Vegas performer was worried about

putting his real bestie Nicole in danger.

-I don't want to use the Power of Veto

because I want to keep Nicole off the block.

-But after Head of Household Monte gave him the green light

not to use the veto...

-I just don't want to look like a fool

putting up you and Taylor,

and then Taylor yet again is still here.

-I think he actually wants to protect Taylor.

I'm not going to let you weasel out of the bed you made.

If you don't want me to use this veto, I'm % going to use it.

-...Daniel completely changed course.

-Are we using it %?

-Dude, I have to. -Yeah.

-He is about to make one of the dumbest moves

in "Big Brother" history

and help us back door his best friend Nicole.

-And the chef found herself on the chopping block.

-Nicole and Taylor.

-Daniel thought he'd sealed Taylor's fate.

-It couldn't have happened any more perfect.

-They have no clue.

-...completely unaware that she was protected

by the dominating Leftovers Alliance.

-We have me, Kyle, Turner, Michael, Brittany,

which are five,

and Monte can break the tie in our favor.

That way, we can send Nicole home.

-With Monte planting seeds to Nicole's allies

about her fate...

-I had a conversation this morning with Nicole.

But after that conversation, I was like, "Nah."

-...it led to Nicole only receiving

one single vote from Daniel...

-By a vote of -,

Nicole you are evicted from the "Big Brother" house.

-...the man who inadvertently sent his bestie to restie.

Needing to pick a new set of besties...

-Taylor, since your Bestie Nicole was just evicted,

you now have the power to choose

which set of Besties you want to join.

-...Taylor joins some ladies outside the Leftovers.

-Indy and Alyssa.

-Yay! Come join us.

-Tonight, earning the Head of Household

will be no walk in the park for the final .

And another set of Besties are block-bound.

Plus, it's the muffin mystery that broke the Internet.

-Well, well, well.

-All this right now on "Big Brother."

♪♪

-Good night, HouseGuests.

-Bye. -Bye.

-Okay. -Okay.

-Yes, I'm still in the house. I'm so excited.

Three times, and they still can't get rid of me.

I chose to Festie Besties with Indy and Alyssa

so I can protect the Leftovers.

It's really important that I'm Festie Besties

with people who aren't part of the Leftovers

because then it ensures

that if any of us are sitting on the block,

we can protect the person who's in our alliance

and makes sure that somebody else goes home.

Don't come for my allies.

Don't come for my friends, not in this game.

-I didn't want Nicole to go home.

I hope she knows that.

I still think Taylor is a bigger threat than Nicole was.

But she's my Festie Bestie right now.

If I tell you I'm happy about that, I would be lying.

♪♪

-Nobody's here to play "Big Brother."

I spent years to be here. I can't roll over now.

Um...

Seeing Nicole walk out is not fun.

Seeing the lack of support behind me and her is not good.

Nicole is my final two, my rogue rat.

Now I'm feeling like a lone wolf in the game.

When you work years to be here,

it sucks to see your game crumble

and not have anybody behind you.

Ohh. You guys are --

You got to remember you're playing for yourself.

What are you guys doing? What are you doing here?

What happened?

You don't know? You don't have an excuse?

Nothing? -No.

-After saving you? -I know.

I'm sorry.

-No, you're not. You're not.

-Daniel is a very emotional player.

He is just kind of all over the place.

I see why Daniel's upset, but at the end of the day,

there is nothing I could have done to save Nicole's game.

So I'm not going to be on the wrong side of the vote

just to make him happy.

-You would have give her a vote, your respect, your sympathy.

Alyssa not having a reason

or an excuse to vote the way she did

confirms that I never really had her in the first place.

And that shows me that I have no one behind me anymore.

-I believed in you guys so much more, man.

So much more hope for you guys.

Monte, you're going to go to the final two, dude.

I really mean it.

It's going to be you and Michael.

You made the best move, dude.

As a player, as a fan, you're k*lling it, dude.

-I appreciate it. But that's --

-No, I really mean it.

I'm not being facetious. -Yeah, yeah, yeah.

-Dude, I mean, out of respect for the game,

like, you're gonna win it.

It's you or Michael sitting at the final two, you know?

-Daniel is going off about Monte being set up well in this game.

Daniel even starts throwing my name in the mix.

And I'm flattered, but let's not do all that.

But everything he is saying is true.

-You're able to convince people

and manipulate them to go with the herd.

And that takes a lot.

-You think I convince people?

-Oh, dude, I mean, I know the tactics behind all this.

I just respect it as a player for sure.

-If you think that I was able to convince nine people

to vote out one person --

-I know. That's why I respect your game.

I'm not even kidding, dude. -What conversation did we have?

-What do you mean?

-All right. -What?

That you wanted Taylor out. You told me that.

-All right, bro.

I mean, you're doing a great job right now.

-You're not good at lying, dude.

-You're doing a great job right now.

-I guess you are, but you guys remember,

you can't split $,. -Right.

-Play for yourselves from this point on.

-Ah, man, good luck, man.

♪♪

-I'll vote for you, brother. I'm hoping you make it.

♪♪

He can't even make up another lie.

I don't think anyone's ever called him out in his life.

Dude.

Zero class, dude. It's crazy.

-Daniel is putting a huge target on his back,

and I'm feeling a little nervous because I'm his Festie Bestie.

I'm definitely worried this is going to

put us on the block this week.

-Playing the HOH, dude, all can change, bro.

One comp, all can change.

♪♪

-Dude, I'm asking what happened.

-It's just not worth talking about.

You told the whole house I manipulated everybody.

You got me. Good job. -That's all you got?

-That's all I got, man.

-I'm literally trying to hear you out.

-You could have had a one-on-one with me.

We could have talked. I have my HOH room.

-Because you have a mass alliance, dude.

What am I going to do about that?

-Really? -I have no numbers behind me.

How am I going to change anything?

-Okay, so then why you doing what you're doing right now?

-Because I want to know. I want to try to understand.

-It's too late, bro. Like --

-See -- Okay.

-What are you talking about?

-Dude, I'm genuinely asking, and you have nothing?

-Genuinely.

Genuinely, you're doing this in front of the house.

-Okay, we'll do it behind closed doors.

I'm okay with that. -Let's do a one-on-one.

Let's have a one-on-one conversation, man-to-man.

But don't sit here and try to act like

you're trying to do something, trying to find out --

-Because what are you hiding, then?

-What do you mean what am I hiding?

-What are you hiding from them? -What you're trying to do

is trying to put more attention on me

because you're feeling emotional about your friend going home.

-Me and you and Nicole were in the room, were we not?

-Up in the HOH. -We were having a conversation

about the Power of Veto.

-You said leave the noms the same.

-Okay. -You said that.

-Okay. It's your story.

I just don't want to look like a fool

putting up you and Taylor,

and then Taylor yet again is still here.

-Yep. -Mm-hmm.

-So you acting like we didn't have a conversation.

Hey, Daniel, I really suggested that you didn't use the veto.

So this whole meltdown, emotional turmoil thing

that you got going on here,

it's really just your fault, man.

-I'm having the open conversation.

-Oh, man. -You can't have an open

conversation about a house vote that I'm alone in,

then you're hiding something from them,

nine people who are on your side.

-I'm hiding something from the nine people

who decided to vote Nicole out?

I didn't do anything.

-Guys, I can't wait for October st

for you to see all this back. -You got it.

You caught me red-handed. -I know.

But I still respect your game play.

This a strong move. -Right.

-And that's my favorite that just left,

and I still respect it. -Right.

-Yes. I'm telling you the truth. -So good job.

-As a fan of the game. -Good job.

You figured it out. You figured it out.

-Daniel is absolutely losing his mind,

but he was told to not use the veto.

He used it on his friend, and his friend got out.

You don't, like, make a show about losing your friend.

Everyone loses friends in this house.

That's, like, the game.

-I'm aware I'm going home next week.

I have nothing to hide anymore.

I've been laying it all out, dude.

-I'm happy Daniel is not yelling at me right now.

It's always expl*si*n with that one.

-This is a last-ditch effort for what?

-This is -- No last-ditch effort.

-There should always be intention behind what you say.

Great job. -The intention is the truth.

-Great job. -And you have nothing

coming back.

-Right, I don't. -I hope you guys all see this.

-Right. -I have nothing.

-House, believe what you want to believe.

Here it is. -Oh, my God.

-You did a great job convincing the whole house

that what they did was all up to me and I manipulated them to do.

-This is the best line you've done all week.

And I do applaud it.

Going into this HOH competition,

I'm aware that I'm completely alone.

I have no backing, no support.

So this competition comes down to

whether I continue in this game or whether I go home.

This is by far the most important competition

for me this summer.

[ Cheers and applause ] -Wow.

-Oh my God. -Oh, whoa!

I see this crazy dog park.

We've got balance beams, fire hydrants,

we've got a doghouse, and there's Pooch and Ameerah

holding two doggy bags.

It looks crazy.

-Oh, my God. Think it's good.

♪♪

-Welcome to BB Fest Poochapalooza,

where you have a chance to be man's best friend

by becoming the next Head of Household.

As outgoing HOH, I'm not eligible to compete.

Here's how it works.

One at a time, you'll take yourself for a walk

across the dog park on the balance beam course

to get to park benches on the other side.

The course has different balance beams to choose from.

The wider balance beams are easier to navigate.

The thinner beams provide shortcuts

but are more difficult.

But watch out.

If you lose your balance and touch the ground,

you'll have to go back to the start and try again.

That's "ruff." [rough]

[ Laughter ]

The player who races across the park

and presses the button on the other side

in the fastest time will fetch the Head of Household.

Who's ready to play Mind Your Step?

[ Cheers and applause, dogs barking ]

A random draw determined your order.

Daniel, you're up first.

-Go, Daniel!

-This HOH is the most important one for me this summer,

because my number two, Nicole, the rogue rat, just went home.

I'm super emotional right now, and the whole house knows it.

So I got to get out there to protect myself

and win this thing.

-Let's set the time to beat.

[ Bell dings ]

-Daniel, with a time of seconds,

you've set the time to beat.

-I'm feeling pretty good right now.

I'm just hoping no one comes by

and snatches this HOH away from me.

-The worst-case scenario is that Daniel is HOH this week,

especially after I evicted Nicole during my HOH reign.

So I need all the help from the Leftovers Alliance

to make sure that we take home this HOH.

-Michael, you're up next.

-Brittany and I are the only one without a Festie Bestie pawn

outside of our alliance.

So I need to win this HOH

to keep me and Brittany safe this week.

Daniel's time is really fast.

So I'm going have to play it risky

and go for the shortest path,

which goes from the yellow beam to the red beam,

which are the two hardest on the course.

I'm thinking this is ideal for the Leftovers.

Michael and Brittany are the only Festie Bestie pair

This is an opportunity for me to think

beyond just this Thursday's eviction.

Boom. Michael takes home the HOH this week.

and I thought I heard him squeak here, squeak at the end.

-I was very blown away,

'cause I did that same route in .

Michael winning HOH,

I have no clue what that means for me.

So there's a possibility I might go up for calling people out.

I'm definitely going to go upstairs and talk to Michael

-Oh my God, Michael, you did it.

-Yeah, what are you thinking?

-My thoughts are back toward Daniel.

-Yeah.

-At this point in the game,

the Leftovers view Daniel as the biggest threat

on the other side of the house,

and he'd be our next target.

I don't fully trust Daniel in the game.

However, I don't know if that's best for my personal game.

-Oh, my gosh, I'm, like, holding back happy tears.

I just can't believe.

Going from the highest-risk

uninsulated pair of the Leftovers

Hey. -Can I interrupt and join?

-Yeah, come on in, Taylor. -Yay!

-Yes, yes, yes.

-We did it, he did it!

Oh, my God.

I would like to back door Daniel.

So as far as bonds go,

it would be between Turner and Jasmine,

or the three guys.

I have a final three with Michael and Brittany.

We should talk to Michael,

take everyone's feelings into account.

I just don't want them to feel like we're running the show.

-If that's what it takes for us to build trust with them,

we'll do it. -We'll do it.

-So Daniel is the obvious target for this week,

and Michael's best chance of accomplishing that

would be to put up myself, Monte, and Terrance

as pawns this week.

This guarantees that more members in my alliance

get a chance at playing in the veto

and the right target goes home this week.

-Yeah, I think you're right about how we present this.

-Like, it gets it out of the way

because it will be a obvious plan, right,

where, like, Michael targeting us,

putting us on the block can be perceived as,

"Oh, these guys aren't actually working together."

-Now we're carrying our weight,

like we're going to go ahead and show that, you know,

it's not you guys just pushing us towards that.

Like, we're going up as pawns.

Like, we don't love it, but we'll do it.

So me and you I guess need to offer that we'll go up.

-And what's the worst-case scenario?

-It's in Daniel's hands and he says "I'm not using it at all."

So then Terrance goes up.

-Going on the block with Joseph and Terrance

is a really good idea

because I think it will build a lot of goodwill.

I'm feeling really good about

where my position is in this house

and within the Leftovers Alliance moving forward.

-So then we go up. -Yeah.

I think we have to. -We go up.

-I think it's the best option. -And it'll build trust anyways.

-I want them to tell me. Hopefully they let me in.

They might be asleep for the night. I don't know.

If y'all have some footage

that y'all would like to release to me,

that would be great.

Dang it!

-What's Jasmine doing?

-I don't know.

-I could totally see that.

-[ Laughs ]

-I mean, I did. I ate the muffin.

Let's be honest.

If the biggest fight of the season arises from this,

I would not be surprised.

[ Chuckles ]

This literally might be a $, muffin,

then so be it.

Perfect. All right.

It is now being digested by yours truly,

and I'm happy about it.

-[ Sighs ] Sorry.

♪♪

-Should we go get Joseph?

He just went downstairs.

-I wouldn't go grab him.

If he comes up, great.

-Congrats, dude!

Let's go.

-Well, what is everyone's thoughts?

-Threat level number one is Daniel.

-Mm-hmm.

-Daniel goes.

-Damn. -By any means necessary.

-How do we execute that?

-Well, I think the ideal situation is a pawn

and then a back door, right?

I don't want Taylor to go up again.

Lately, Jasmine has been driving me so crazy

that this might just be the perfect week

to go up as a pawn.

At the end of the day, if all else fails and she goes home,

I do not mind.

-There's no group that doesn't involve us right now, right?

-Yeah. -Correct.

So it only takes one of us to use the power of veto.

-Exactly. -So if me, Joe, and Terrance

go up as pawns per se...

-Mm-hmm.

-...first of all, it gives us a pretty strong ability

to have the three of us up as a pair.

I feel like we have good chances of winning.

-Yeah. -So I think the optics of it

could show that if you put us up,

that we're not working together,

because why in the hell would you put up

somebody you're working together with?

-Yeah. That's a really good point.

-Yeah, so that's what we're thinking.

-As long as you two are comfortable with that.

I do think that covers our tracks pretty well.

-Pretty easy, yeah. -It's pretty ideal.

-It's just the easiest thing to put you up.

-It's pretty ideal.

-Put somebody else up.

Put those muscular boys up there.

They've barely even touched the block.

So play your role.

[ Neck cracks ] Oh, that felt good.

-Because apparently I'm a master manipulator.

-Take the crown.

I'm no longer the master manipulator.

-Apparently I am. -Whoa!

Congrats, Monte. Tell me what to do.

[ Laughter ]

-All right, my disciples.

-I'm telling my alliance that the plan is the same.

I want to back door Daniel

and get him out of the house this week.

But I'm not sure if that's true.

I know that Daniel is targeting Monte,

and I think Monte is a huge threat to win the game.

Why would I take out Daniel when that's the best move for Monte?

And I'm not sure if that's the best move for me at this point.

-Soak it up, literally.

-Yeah, I'm going to.

-[ Sighs ]

♪♪

-Come in.

Hello. -Hey.

-Oh, how the tables have turned. [ Laughs ]

I'm going upstairs to the HOH room to speak with Michael

and let him know I'm not a threat to his personal game.

If anything, he can use me as a number

and someone who is actually winning competitions

in this house to help him get further.

You are a k*ller.

You are a monster in this game,

and I respect that as a fan.

And you having four comps,

me having two, we're the two who have won the most competitions.

If the game ends today, not only do you win by stats,

but you have my vote as it is.

In my mind right now, I have nobody.

So I'm willing to do anything to get further in the game.

Me having nothing to lose means I'll do anything it takes now

to just get even one more week down the line.

So if you're aligned with anyone

that you don't want to take a shot at,

and if you could use me to take those shots

at the people that maybe you don't want to

get more blood on the hands, I'm here to play,

and I have no problem showing that.

And, like, basically, do any dirty work you need.

-When someone is an easy target,

it becomes like, "Okay, do I give the house what they want

to not ruffle feathers?"

I think it would help maybe other people's games if you left

a lot more than it would help mine.

-Yeah.

-I am assuming people are probably going to

want me to back door you this week,

is what I'm assuming people are going to

come up here and pitch to me.

So from that perspective,

if a veto doesn't get used...

-It's not your fault, yeah.

-Like, for me, that would probably be best-case scenario.

-Yeah, for sure.

-Daniel is right.

Right now, he is a free agent

and also a huge target.

This is an opportunity

to potentially pull him in and work with him.

Maybe he can take some shots

that I don't feel comfortable taking quite yet.

-I'm down to do whatever it takes moving forward,

because I have no plans. -Mm-hmm.

♪♪

♪♪

-Come in.

-How are you, Mr. HOH?

How are things going? -Good. Good.

Everything is kind of, like, to be expected.

-What do we do?

-I feel like it would cause too many waves to not do Daniel.

-I know you and I had talked about, like,

when and who strikes first,

because we know there's not a reality where

you and I get to the end with this very strong group.

-Yeah.

-Because it's obviously Monte and Joseph.

-If Monte makes it to, like, final six,

I could see him winning.

-Yeah.

-At least one competition per week,

because he is the most well-rounded competitor.

-He really is.

He's got mental and he is very strategic.

-He is going to be the hardest one to beat

in those types of things.

But imagine if you were the one, like, who took out Monte,

if you were the one who took out Joseph?

-Yeah. -Like, making unexpected moves

or things that could upset people,

it's like that can get you respect.

-If all of us could band against Joseph and Monte...

-Honestly, that's best-case scenario for us I think.

-Mm-hmm.

I mean, our heads would be on the platter with everybody else.

In "Big Brother," timing is everything.

So Michael and I are trying to determine

is now the time to make a big move

and throw away Leftovers just a little bit early?

Oh, gosh. I just don't know.

-It would take four votes for a tie.

The Leftovers going to the final seven is great in theory,

but is this the week to make a big move

and draw a new line in the sand?

Or do I go with what my alliance wants and back door Daniel

and don't make too many waves?

-People are going to want to target us.

What do we have to do to ensure that that doesn't happen?

I guess I'm just willing to be messy.

-This is the nomination ceremony.

It is my responsibility as the Head of Household

to nominate one set of Festie Besties for eviction.

In my nomination block

is the key of the Festie Besties I am nominating for eviction.

I will turn the key to lock in my nominations,

and their faces will appear on the memory wall.

The HouseGuests I have nominated are...

♪♪

I have nominated the Besties Terrance, Joseph, and Monte

for eviction this week.

I love and adore all three of you.

So I really don't want you to take this personally at all.

I think that the house views your team of Festie Besties

as one of the strongest in the house,

and a lot of people don't want

to see you in a veto competition,

but I like a challenge.

[ Laughter ]

-I like that.

-This nomination ceremony is adjourned.

♪♪

-So I'm nominated.

I'm very surprised that Mike called us out.

You put three strong people on the block --

well, definitely two.

[ Laughs ]

-After all the drama this week, I'm not nominated.

Seeing two huge threats on the block is huge for my game,

but Michael did mention I'm a possible back door option.

So I'm fired up.

I'll never forget what this house did to Nicole.

So if I get picked for veto, I'm gunning for it.

And I'll do the same exact thing to them.

-Joseph, Terrance, and myself are on the block,

but at the same time, I'm good with it

because we already agreed to this plan

with the Leftovers and with Michael.

I have a lot of confidence that we're going to go out there

and win this POV.

And I definitely have trust in the Leftovers to keep me safe,

even if we do stay up on the block.

I kind of feel like I'm having my muffin and eating it too.

-Nominating Joseph, Monte, and Terrance

is giving me the most options moving forward.

If I do decide to back door Daniel,

I have a strong team competing in the veto to hopefully win it.

However, I have been waiting years to have an HOH reign.

And believe me, America,

I am not going to waste this opportunity.

-Who will conquer the return of OTEV

and win the Power of Veto?

And will it lead to another shocking veto meeting?
