25x06 - Episode 6

[bunniefuu]

- Previously on "Big Brother"...

Head of Household Reilly formed the Handful alliance.

all: [quietly] Ahh!

- And they expanded their ranks

with America, Cory, and Jared.

- Yeah.

- But Jared was secretly

bringing the info to his mom.

- Named a eight-person alliance.

- We knew the split already. - Mm.

- And she was part of the other side of the house

in the Professors alliance.

- If y'all are down, the seven is the Professors,

and we taking the kids to school.

[school bell ringing]

- Izzy confronted Reilly about the split house...

- Like, maybe cut the bull[...].

We all know what--what's up.

We're working with other people.

- Right, right.

- While Hisam confronted her

about her gameplay.

- The words that I'm hearing is that you are targeting me.

[dramatic music]

- With the Head of Household

on the line in the Nether Region,

Hisam scared up another big win...

[whooshing]

- Guess who the new Head of Household is.

- While Jared was left behind.

- I don't even know where I'm at right now,

but I know I'm stuck in the Nether Region,

and this is the only way I can communicate with y'all.

- Hisam was clear on whom he wanted to target.

- Reilly is my target.

I want her out because she wants me out of the house.

- But a twist from the Scary-verse

was poised to possibly put a wrench in his plans.

- "Jared, you must choose one houseguest

"to send to the Nether Region.

"The soul you send will miss the nomination ceremony

"and therefore cannot be nominated

"for eviction this week.

The person you choose will be safe."

- Wow. - Oh!

- Wow, wow. - Oh.

- Reilly begged Jared to save her...

- If you have it in your heart to rescue me, like,

I would literally owe you forever.

- But after consulting Hisam...

- I--I don't care who you send.

Just don't send Matt,

Reilly, or Cameron.

Those are the three that I'm going after.

- And his mom...

- You know who you could send and it won't look funny?

Jag.

- Jared sent Jag to the Nether Region instead.

- I choose Jaguar to go to the Nether Region.

♪

- At the nomination ceremony...

- I have nominated you, Reilly, and you, Cameron.

- Hisam drew a line in the sand.

- The Professors are calling the shots this week,

sending the other side of the house to detention.

- Tonight, the Power of Veto is on the line.

Will it save Reilly or Cameron from the chopping block?

Plus, which soul will be sent to the Nether Region next?

And how will it impact the game?

Find out right now

on "Big Brother"!

- I never was good at geometry.

[upbeat music]

♪

- This nomination ceremony is adjourned.

[dramatic music]

I have nominated both Reilly and Cameron for eviction.

My target is Reilly

because she told everyone I'm hers.

And Cameron is sitting next to her

because I'm hoping by pitting the two of them

against each other, it will cause

the other side of the house to splinter and crumble.

♪

[laughing]

♪

This is how you win the game, right?

Right?

I'm definitely not surprised to be nominated.

I know I'm not the target, but I'm gonna go out there,

and I'm gonna g*n for this POV.

- I am not shocked that

I'm sitting on the block right now.

I kind of admitted to Hisam last week

that I was gonna come for him eventually,

and here I am.

I went from being the first HOH

to sitting my butt on the block.

This is not the "Big Brother" dream

everyone talks about, so...[laughs]

Not--not excited.

Not excited at all.

What's up, mister?

- Reilly, I love you.

Stay strong and keep your head up.

- I love you too, Jaggie.

Drink your milk.

- So how are things going?

- I'm good.

I'm happy to be downstairs

Like, take a breath. - Yeah.

And so, like, where-- what are your thoughts?

♪

- My thoughts right now are just

I want to clean-slate everything.

I just hope that, like, if you have it in your heart

to--to work with me, I--I would love that.

- It's not that I don't want to work with you.

- Yeah. - Right?

It's not that I don't want to work with you.

- Yeah. - I just want to be

really transparent with you. - Please do.

- What's been pretty clear to me is, like, you know,

we're in week two, and the only person

who's mentioning anybody's name is you.

♪

- I know. - Right?

And you know that, right? - Of course.

- And the concern that I have, right,

is that if I don't mention you...

- Mm-hmm. - People are gonna be like,

what the [...]?

Like, she--she totally said she was gonna evict him.

♪

Does that make sense to you?

- Mm-hmm.

- I know it sucks to hear it that way.

♪

God, he rubs me the wrong way.

He really rubs me the wrong way.

Ugh!

- I do really like you.

I do think you're a strong competitor.

I would want to work with you, right?

But I do feel like I have to respond to this.

- Don't do that to me.

Like, if you really wanted to work with me, Hisam,

you would not be putting me on the block and targeting me.

[sighs]

- What can I do to help?

♪

- Nothing.

He preaches honesty and integrity.

He's just as guilty as anyone else.

Everyone just believes this façade that he puts up.

I just don't believe it.

I just don't.

You're not out.

You're not out, right?

You are playing the Veto.

- Right. - Right?

- That's a crock of bull.

This is not going to be a good situation for Hisam

if I make it out of this week.

I'll just tell you that.

I gotta do what I gotta do.

- Yeah, that's it. - Looks really good.

You look like-- - That's--he--he trying.

- Right! - Yeah.

- You do look like you're buff and you went--

looking at that picture.

Oh, my God, yay.

Seeing Jag walk back into the house

from the Nether Region, I am just so happy.

He's my best friend here,

and I know that he is going to do what it takes

to help me in this situation.

- I have no message with me right now,

so I--I have no clue.

- What the hell?

- Yeah.

It feels so great

to be back from the Nether Region.

On the bright side, I am safe for the week,

but I have no idea what the Nether Gorgon

is gonna ask me to do.

I'm scared, and I just know it's gonna be terrible.

[tense music]

♪

- What's up, brother?

- Did that feel stressful? - I could tell.

Yeah. I could tell.

- I think the hard part is over,

which is, like, talking to people

and making a decision on two people.

♪

So now it's just Veto.

So, like, you know,

just be careful about winning Veto.

- Yeah.

♪

- Really think about it.

If you win and take her down,

then everyone will be like,

you guys are in a showmance.

[laughs] Right?

Is it a showmance?

I don't care.

But I know that this potentially

could screw up my HOH.

Reilly and him are very close,

and Matt is my backup option

if I have to name a replacement nominee.

And so I'm trying to gently explain to Matt

how saving Reilly would be really dangerous for his game.

And you can see that, like,

when a target happens early for showmances.

- Mm-hmm.

- And it's totally justifiable.

Once they get one of you out,

then they get the other one out.

- Yeah. - Like, it's just like--

- Yeah. - That's how this game works.

It's too dangerous.

So just think about it.

♪

- I don't like being threatened.

Reilly is one of the closest people I'm working with

in this house, so I'm really hoping

that I get picked for this Veto

so that I have a chance to save Reilly

and also protect myself at the same time.

And next week, Hisam, we're coming for you.

♪

- [sighs]

- Yeah.

Damn it.

- Dude, 'cause he wants me out.

♪

- I want to get called.

I could use it on you, make a stance.

Like, I'm taking her down,

because she was the first person that made me

feel comfortable in the game.

- I don't want you to throw your game away for me.

- Aw.

[soft music]

The fact that Matt is willing to go against the HOH's wishes

this week to keep me in this house

makes me feel really, really good and safe with him.

What if I left?

You're gonna be like, what do I do?

- I know. - [sighs]

- That's why I gotta save you.

Now I'm just hoping that Matt gets picked

for this Veto, and if I can't win it,

he can and keep us both safe for the week.

where he thinks it's for his benefit.

♪

[tense music]

My initial thoughts go to,

you don't want to put up a replacement.

- Right. - Yeah, right now,

I know Red is close to Cameron.

♪

- Yeah, like, my preference would be Blue,

'cause she's actually close to Reilly.

♪

But you know, obviously,

like, it's your power.

- Yeah. I want to chat with everyone.

- Yeah. - But right now,

I'm thinking between those two.

That might change.

I was hoping Hisam was gonna take the bait

and tell me that he's cool with me choosing Red,

but obviously, I'm not gonna take out Blue.

She's one of my closest allies, and I'm not an idiot.

What I need to do now is ask for volunteers

so that no one will be mad at me.

The first thing I want to ask anyone that I talk to

is whether they, like, volunteer.

[dramatic music]

- I'm just nervous about the Nether Region.

So I'm like, er...

- Yeah. - A little iffy about that.

- How you doing? - I don't know.

Obviously, I don't want to go, but...

- Okay. - What do you feel?

- Perfect. - Yeah.

- That's all I needed to know.

Would you be okay with not playing in the Veto?

- I really want to, just--

just to play,

'cause I just enjoy playing.

- Cool. Okay.

What I'm figuring out with everyone

pretty much at this point is if anyone wants

to volunteer... - Mm-hmm.

- And they're okay not playing the Veto and stuff.

- Yeah.

- So how do you feel about that?

- I'm open to whatever.

- Yeah, cool.

So Bowie seems like

she's open to the idea.

This might be the perfect person

to send to the Nether Region.

I know she's a competitor.

She's on the other side of the house,

and if she can't play in the Veto,

that's perfect for my side of the house.

And we're solid. Just-- - Yeah, we're solid.

- I trust you and-- - Right.

- You know, I hope you trust me.

- No, no, %.

- Um, no.

- Uh--

- Dude, trust me, please. Please.

- This is the same [...] Jared did to me.

He told me to trust him. - Please.

I want Jag to put Red in the Nether Region

because if Red wins the Veto,

he's likely gonna pull Cameron off the block,

and that would leave Hisam with the option

of putting Matt up next to me,

which is worst-case scenario.

See, if Red plays in the Veto and wins,

takes Cameron down,

[...].

It's your choice, but you know exactly what I'm saying.

it's gonna completely implode everything.

We--it's already imploded.

♪

- Bowie, bye-bye.

- Ahh!

[laughter]

I'm scared!

- Bye.

- Don't get scared too much.

- The reason I volunteered is because I thought

Jag would pick Red, which would be bad

for my alliance's game moving forward.

He's the strongest competitor on our side,

and I want to keep him eligible to play for the Veto.

So it looks like I'm going down under

Having Bowie go to the Nether Region

that has a good chance of beating me

at the Veto competition.
