24x30 - Episode 30

[bunniefuu]

-Previously on "Big Brother"...

Brittany, Taylor, and Alyssa

discussed the girls teaming up to make a run at the end.

-I want to give you guys my loyalty.

Three women have never made it to final three,

I don't think, ever.

-That's so stupid.

-But Brit quickly spilled the tea to Turner.

-I just wanted to let you know that I've been hearing things.

-She's basically telling me the girls have a final three.

-After Turner filled Monte in

on a potential ladies' alliance....

-She's like, "Alyssa and Taylor

are trying to do a final three of the girls.

-...the guys were motivated to form their own squad.

-We're easily the biggest competitors in the house.

The best way for us to make it is to work together

and go to the end easily.

-At a crazy double eviction...

-Terrance, you are evicted from the "Big Brother" house.

-...Turner and Monte captured all the power.

-Congratulations, Turner.

You are the new Head of Household.

Congratulations, Monte.

You have won the Power of veto.

-So they abandoned their deal with Michael...

-Okay. -We got to make the move.

-Okay.

-...and seized the opportunity

to take out their biggest threat.

-Michael, I love you, dude.

Only LGBTQ member in this house alongside me.

I love you, but I'm so sorry. I have to open up first place.

-...sending the record-breaking competitor to jury.

-By a vote of -,

Michael, you are evicted from the "Big Brother" house.

♪♪

-With only five remaining...

-Listen, just think how proud our families are right now.

-%. Yeah.

-...a terrifying tussle for Head of Household was unleashed.

-[ Screams ]

-...and Monte slaughtered the competition.

-Congratulations, Monte, you're the next Head of Household.

-Thank you. -There you go.

-Oh, my God, yeah.

So this guarantees that I'm going to be in the final four.

I'm hyped right now.

-Monte was loyal to Turner and Taylor.

-I feel good about having a final-two situation with Turner.

But with Taylor, I feel pretty good about where we stand.

-So he wanted either Alyssa or Brittany gone.

-I already told Alyssa and Brittany.

They're gonna go up on the block.

-Is Brittany your target? -[ Sighs ]

-But Taylor proposed a plan to take out a bigger fish.

-I guess I'm trying to gauge how close you are with Turner.

Like, where does Turner fall?

-If you win the veto --

if you use the power to bring down Brittany

and put up fricking Turner...

I know Turner is a strong competitor,

but if you want it to happen,

you're gonna have to take matters into your own hands.

-At the nomination ceremony...

-I've nominated you, Brittany, and you, Alyssa.

-...Taylor kept her eyes on the prize.

-I'm actually really happy

that Monte put up Brittany and Alyssa.

This gives me an opportunity to win the veto

and force Turner to go up on the block.

I want to make sure I'm the one that takes that shot.

-Tonight, the final five go cuckoo

trying to win the Power of Veto.

Will it be used to save one of the nominees?

Find out right now on "Big Brother"!

-Oh, God.

♪♪

-This nomination ceremony is adjourned.

♪♪

I've nominated Brittany and Alyssa this week.

But honestly, I'm cool with either of them going.

The most important thing to me

is to make sure the nominations stay the same

because I don't want to have to put up Turner or Taylor.

I need them here as long as possible

because I think both of them will take me to final two.

-First one I didn't cry.

-Proud of you. -Yeah.

-Look at you. -Huge.

It really sucks being on the block two weeks in a row.

Monte told me I'm a pawn,

but that doesn't mean I feel safe.

If Brittany manages to take herself off the block,

I could easily become the target.

So I'm going to g*n for that veto,

take myself off the block,

and ensure my spot in the final four.

[ Pops lips ] -Puh.

-Ninja! [ Laughs ]

-Too frail, dude. -[ Laughs ]

-If I was to rate the feeling of not seeing your face

on that memory wall,

well, it would be super-mega-bussin'.

I've been up there once, and I took an L.

That was pretty mid, if not disgussin'.

But this feeling, % bussin'.

-My eye looks green if you look really, really closely.

-Look at me.

Now that Michael is in jury,

this is basically anybody's game,

as long as you're willing to take the shots necessary

to make it to finale night.

So if I win this veto, I'm using it to take down Brittany

which will force Monte to put Turner up.

And once he's on the block,

then Brittany and I will control the votes

that'll send Turner packing.

When does this go away?

-Does it fade or does it just swap?

-Ohh! -Ohh!

♪♪

-Just wanted to check base.

Is there anything else last week that was said

or anything that I might be able to clear up?

Monte put me on the block, and he said something

about there being a lapse of communication.

Given Michael's kind of goodbye speech,

I was assuming that I would be on the block,

but I also kind of want to get

a little bit more clarification through Monte

because, you know, I was in a final four

with Michael, me, Monte, and Taylor from Big Brochella.

And even though Michael is not there anymore,

I'm still am committed to that final three,

and I hope Monte is too.

-Yeah, I mean, there were some more things shared,

like, from Turner's perspective around the details

of that conversation that you guys had.

-Okay.

-There were some things mentioned around

that all-girls thing that may have been a thing

that Alyssa brought up.

♪♪

I'm telling you this stuff because

this is the information that was brought to me.

-And I appreciate that, you know?

The girls, I didn't bring that to your attention

because it just didn't feel like --

It was just so not --

it was so fluff, just so not real,

that it just didn't even feel like -- like anything.

-I think that was my only thing is that,

if I feel like I'm on the outs

with communication... -Yeah

-...and I'm one of the last --

it feels a little bit like, "Wait a minute."

So then the trust is not -- -I get that now.

I guess maybe that's my downfall.

Yeah, I should have mentioned it more.

I find out that the conversation that I had with Turner -- uhh! -

um, leaked, got back to him,

which doesn't surprise me.

Turner can't keep a secret for the life of him.

Basically, I've been gotten up in quite a few conversations.

Kind of a bit of a messy situation Brittany.

But I'm trying to do as much damage control as I can

with Monte moving forward.

Because then it looks like I'm not telling the truth.

Yeah, and my guess is,

in case you don't hear from me in a couple of days,

I'm very much getting the impression

no one's wanting to talk game to me until veto.

To be completely honest,

because I don't know who to trust

and feel very much...

-On the outs? -Yeah.

Yeah, not happy. Sorry. I'm gonna get upset.

-No, it's okay. It's okay. I understand.

-So this is not good.

I thought, between myself and Alyssa,

that I would be in a much better position with Monte,

but now I'm starting to think that I might be the target.

The only way I know that I am safe in this game

is if I win this veto.

That is it.

Hopefully I do win veto.

[ Laughter ]

Whoa. -Whoa!

I'm so honored to have seen this first.

-I know, right? It's pretty crazy.

This is spotless.

-Next level, for sure. -This looks great.

-So we have my bed and my towels and then we have my hoodies.

And my little...

-Wow. -I know, right?

And I have my -- this is once where a pile was formed.

-Yeah, I do remember.

I can't say it's normal for an adult man

to be very, very proud to clean his room.

However, Turner is one of a kind.

Now he just needs to learn how to do his own dishes,

and then I have a -out-of- roommate.

I'm very impressed.

This is great. Good job.

-Dude, thank you.

-Mic drop.

♪♪

-Brittany came in here.

-Oh, this morning? -Yeah, this morning.

-Oh, God. What happened?

-It was just like a bunch of convoluted information.

-Man.

If Brittany or Alyssa takes themself down,

who are you putting up?

-That's the part that I -- it's gripping me.

But I think the shot would have to be...

♪♪

Because if -- there's five of us playing, right?

So I think likelihood is...

-You, me, or Turner wins.

-Yeah, exactly.

-Turner has a great social game, he's proven he can win comps,

and he's responsible for getting Michael out.

If he makes it to final two,

he's got a solid argument for why he should win.

So we need to make sure that he doesn't get there.

-If somehow I'm forced into a situation where you win,

you pull Brittany down, and Turner goes up,

you and Brittany make the vote, I'm...

-Yeah. -You know what I mean?

It just is what it is.

I trust Taylor, and I know that she's chomping at the bit

to get Turner out, so I'm acting like I'm all for it.

But the truth is, if she wants Turner out this week,

then she's gonna have to play in the veto

and win the power herself, take down Brittany,

and force me to put up Turner as a replacement nominee.

I'm very open to whatever way it works out,

but at this point anything could happen with this damn veto.

♪♪

-Tomorrow, who do you think the best-case winner is?

-Best case. -You or me, obviously.

-Yeah. Ideally.

-I guess that's probably the only best case.

-Yeah. I mean, I will say, like,

I definitely would not prefer it if Alyssa or Brittany won it.

♪♪

Because then it forces that hand.

-Just got to ask. -Yeah, yeah.

-One of them win, Taylor goes up?

-Yeah, I think that's --

that's probably going to have to be what it's going to be.

-That's what I was hoping.

-I don't know.

You feel like you're getting a good read on her, like,

where's her head at.

-I think you have a better read on Taylor

'cause you guys are closer. -Yeah.

I think where her head is, is Brittany and Alyssa this week.

That's the most that we've been talking about.

But my thing is, maybe I probably prefer that

the nominations just stay the same.

-That would be a lot easier.

-I don't want Turner to know

that Taylor wants him out this week.

I'm trying to keep both them here.

I already have Taylor looking for her chance

to take a shot at him,

and the last thing I need is Turner

looking to do the same to her.

But if Taylor wins that veto, then Turner's in big trouble.

So for his sake and for mine, one of us has to win that veto

so that noms don't change.

Whatever happens this week I think will be the indication

of how the rest of the summer will go.

-Fire.

♪♪

-I don't know if I asked any of you guys this,

but what would you do if you won,

with the bread?

-Taylor, do you want to go first?

-So I'd use the majority of it to get my own life back

because I feel like I've been a little bit of a burden at home.

I just want to give myself freedom

so that my mom can have her own freedom again.

I want to use the money

to do really simple American Dream things.

I want a house, I want a car. I want a dog.

So this money would absolutely be a door

to a brand-new life.

♪♪

-What would you do if you win that money?

What are you going to do with it?

-I would probably definitely retire my mom,

make sure she doesn't have to work anymore

because she's freaking worked her a*s off

to, like, help me and support me in any way she can.

She's the hardest-working woman ever.

I love her. -Yeah.

-Winning the $, would completely change my life.

I could help my mom retire,

I wouldn't have to work multiple jobs,

and I could even start my own business.

It would allow me live a life I've only ever dreamed about.

Yeah, I would definitely do something like that.

-Monte?

-I'd like to set up some account for my parents

where it's some sort of residual income that they could have.

And my little brother.

I want to fund my little brother's real estate dreams

once he gets out of the military.

-That's beautiful.

-Winning the $, would be huge for me

because I want to start investing in the people

who have invested in me.

My family's given me a lot,

so being able to give something back to them would mean a ton.

Anyway, those are my things.

-What about you?

-I think Stephen and I would --

first and foremost, if we can't have kids naturally,

we would adopt or do IVF.

It would help with that 'cause that gets really expensive.

-I can imagine. -It's like K minimum.

Winning "Big Brother" would be the money that we need

so that we can start a family.

I'm the one who has PCOS.

It's short for polycystic ovarian syndrome.

One of the main symptoms is difficulty conceiving,

holding a pregnancy to full term.

And I told Stephen I'd come home and we'd have a family.

I told him that.

Stephen and I definitely want to give it

like at least throughout the end of this year

if not maybe a little bit into next year.

Just one more go at it naturally.

And then if not...

The adoption process is a very long process.

It's expensive.

I'm bringing home this money.

Like, we will have a baby.

I'm gonna do it.

It's my biggest dream. And I'm so close.

I'm so close.

-I can't wait for the pregnancy announcement.

I have a good feeling.

-You guys will be so excited for me.

Ahh!

♪♪

-Get a new place.

And then I would definitely open a coffee shop

called the Coffee Shack.

-Oh, I love that.

And I would probably let Megan run the coffee shop

because she used to be a barista.

-Oh, nice.

-Winning K would not only be life-changing for me

but for the people I care about.

And finally, after / years together,

I could buy a ring and plan a wedding with Megan.

I think I would name him Nolan.

-Nolan! -Nolan.

Because I was too slow to get outside,

I can't play in this competition, which sucks.

Now I got to sit on the sideline

If Alyssa or Brittany wins,

the veto is definitely gonna be used.

And if Taylor wins, she will take down Brittany,

So, Turner, you got to win this for both of our games.

"Big Brother" woke all of us up in the middle of the night

Since I can't play, I'm rooting for my boy

Turner right now, because I know if he wins,

he's keeping nominations the same.

And at the end of the day,

I don't want to name neither Turner or Taylor

-[ German accent ] Good morning, HouseGuest.

It's time for the veto competition,

and here's how it works.

Each of you has a giant cuckoo clock

that's missing nearly all its gears.

It's your job to get the cuckoo clock working.

Use the pins from your table

to attach gears onto the cuckoo clock.

You must put all gears from the box

so when you turn the crank at the bottom of the cuckoo clock,

all of the gears begin to spin

and the cuckoo bird springs out of the clock.

Damn, Monte.

It was so important that me or you win this veto,

and you overslept.

Now all the pressure is on me to win this veto

and keep the nominations the same.

-Now that Michael is out of the house,

Turner has easily become the biggest threat

to any of us winning that $,.

If I win the veto, I can use it to pull

Brittany off the block and keep both of us safe,

then Monte would be forced to put Turner up

and Brittany and I could send him out the door.

-This is not your average jigsaw puzzle.

We actually have to build these gears

but you never know what can happen.

So, I know I really need to step up my game,

wake up, and win this thing.

-All I have to start off with this puzzle

is two gears on the clock.

There's a starting gear at the bottom

-Monte doesn't quite trust me anymore,

So I need to win this veto now more than ever.

We have to use all of these gears to complete this puzzle.

from the first gear to the last gear isn't going to work.

-Well, something that Turner kind of said seemed to suggest

that you and Turner were really close and working together.

-Monte is also a pretty good player.

He's definitely already planning for that,

so I know he's on that same page.

-He's on that same page.

Is that true?

-I mean, we have been close since, you know,

the starting of the Leftovers... -Yeah. Okay.

-...but nothing official or anything like that.

-I know it would be a big trust building exercise,

but say if you were to put Turner up,

that feels like, okay, that would be you showing us

that you're with us and us showing us that we're with you.

-Mm-hmm. -Uh, uh, uh.

-I guess my thought would be, like,

is one Turner worth two Brittany/Taylor?

[ Chuckles ] -Mm. Yeah.

-The message it would be sending leaving him here

would be that we're okay to be the next expendable ones out.

-Uh-huh. -That just would show

to me and Taylor, though, that you are not with us.

I guess that's how I would interpret that.

There's still a twinge in me that is not % certain that

you and Turner aren't working together.

-What makes you say that? -I don't know. I don't know.

I know you have a lot to think about

and it's ultimately your decision,

but I just wanted to let you know, like...

[ Exhales sharply ] Man.

...if it went the particular way that I'm proposing,

it sure would...

sure would make things a lot calmer,

a lot easier, you know? -Okay.

I don't know who this Brittany is and where she came from,

but this whole suburban mob boss act ain't working on me.

She's basically threatening me saying

it would be a real "shame"

if I didn't put up Turner this week.

[ As Vito Corleone ] Accidents happen.

I would hate for you to trip and fall backwards

into a knife I happen to be holding.

[ Normal voice ] Brittany, you don't scare me.

I'm going to do what's best for my game,

and no amount of strong arming during my HoH

is going to make me change that.

I would have loved for this to be an easy week,

but I don't think it's going to be.

So, I haven't made a decision yet.

-This is so hard, Monte. -Yeah, this is real.

-Oh, my God. -Yeah, this is real stuff.

We're playing "Big Brother." -Oh, my God.

Yeah.

♪♪

What's up, partner? -My boy.

-How you feeling, man?

-That was the most... thing of all time.

-Yeah, no, it's all good.

-Me being so close to that win was very defeating.

♪♪

Brittany and Taylor --

the only thing they can be plotting is for me to go up.

-Yep. And you're not.

%, bro. -Oh, thank you, bro.

Thank you, bro. -I can't -- Alright.

I'm telling you just as a person, as a human --

you're not going up. -Thank you, dude.

-%.

Bro, like, if you're gone, like, I'm done next week.

Like, I'm out. -[ Chuckles ] Yeah.

This is me versus the three women,

and that puts all the pressure on me to win a veto.

You know what I mean? -Oh, yeah. Big time.

No, you have a good point.

-My goal is still to keep Taylor and Turner,

but if I put Turner on the block,

Brittany and Taylor are going to vote him out.

Just doesn't make sense for me to go into the week

with Brittany, Taylor, and Alyssa.

-[ Sniffs ] Mmm! -I have no doubt they would want

to take a shot at me,

especially since I can't play in that HoH.

And I'm also like...

Brittany, you never know where her head is at.

You can't believe if she's going to have your back.

-Oh, yeah. Nothing she says you can believe at all.

-That's what I'm saying.

So, like, how can you feel good

moving forward with that person?

-I think Taylor probably feels good right now, though.

-She probably does, so with her,

you know, I'm going to have to massage that conversation.

♪♪

-How you doing? -Hey.

Well, you know, it sucks, but here we are.

Brittany came up here and just --

it was testing my patience.

She indirectly threatened me saying if I don't do something

this week, then she's going to, you know, have to consider that,

and she continued to question me about myself and Turner,

which to me is showing that you're not trusting me.

-I just don't get why she would do that.

-Yeah. That conversation with her

did not help her cause at all with me,

and it just made it times worse.

-[ Groans ] -I think about the likelihood

of what sounds more appealing

to somebody in that vote.

I know how you feel about Turner.

It sounds more appealing for you to want to vote out Turner

than it would for Turner to want to vote you out.

So I do hate the fact that this now puts you in a position

where yet again you're on the block.

-It sounds like Monte wants to put me up

as a replacement nominee because he thinks

if he puts Turner up,

Brittany and I will take him out.

And I got to admit, it's really tempting,

and I would love to have that opportunity,

but I really don't want to touch the block

for a fifth time on an eviction night.

So I need to convince him

that I won't do anything to damage his game.

If you trust me, why put me in a position

this week... where I could be in danger?

-Mm-hmm.

-Why not put Turner up instead

and trust me to keep true to you?

I can't get to where I want to get without you.

-Mm-hmm.

-I wouldn't do something stupid just to go home the next week.

-I mean, that's a -- that's a good point.

I do trust Taylor,

but I worry that putting Turner on the block this week

is like putting a juicy steak in front of a starving man.

While I don't want to damage my relationship with Taylor,

I do have to weigh that against

the possibility of losing Turner

at a point in the game when I need to keep him as a shield.

This decision could seriously affect the rest of my game,

so I have to make sure I make the right move.

Now I'm left between a rock and a hard place

with this whole decision.

It's time for the veto meeting.

This is the veto meeting.

Alyssa and I have been nominated for eviction.

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

I have decided...

to use the Power of Veto on myself.

I will now name a new HouseGuest as a replacement nominee.

Taylor.

For me, I'm making this decision

solely on what's best for my safety next week.

Alyssa, Taylor, fight for your lives

and ensure you're doing the best

to make sure you're staying for next week.

-This veto meeting is adjourned.

♪♪

♪♪

-I love Taylor and all,

but I wasn't going to serve up Turner on a silver platter

and give Taylor and Brittany

the perfect opportunity to take him out.

The fact of the matter is I need both Taylor and Turner

in the house as long as possible

as we head into the final stages of this game.

-Monte, what are you doing?

You're keeping Turner safe this week?

That makes it very clear that you are prioritizing

Turner's game over Taylor and me.

And if I get into power next week,

I'm going to have to consider

what move makes the most sense for mygame,

and that might not be to keep your around.

-I love you, Monte, but damn you.

The fact that you could have put Turner up

instead of me is uber frustrating,

and now you put my fate in the game and my spot

in the final four in other people's hands.

I feel good about my chances against Alyssa,

but that doesn't mean this week won't be stressful.

Ugh. I need a drink.

♪♪

-Brittany used the veto on herself, surprise, surprise.

I need two votes to stay this week

or one with Monte breaking a tie.

I'm pretty sure I have Turner's vote,

so that means I either have to convince Brittany or Monte

to keep me in the house this week.

If I can convince either one of them

that Taylor is the much stronger player

and someone they need to take out now,

then maybe, just maybe, I can stay this week.

-I could not be more stoked that I'm not on the block,

however, Alyssa is my close friend

and I don't want her leaving this house

before the final four.

I know Monte wants Alyssa out, but still,

I might have to vote to keep Alyssa in,

and then the decision, either send Taylor or Alyssa home,

will be on his hands.

-Who will be evicted from the house -- Taylor or Alyssa?

And who will punch their ticket to finale night

by winning the Head of Household?
