27x03 - Episode 3

[bunniefuu]

Previously on Big Brother!

With the Summer of Mystery underway...

An evil mastermind unleashed a legend into
the game.

Say hello to your new roommate.

And he quickly revealed he had an
accomplice helping him.

My accomplice is one of you.

If you can successfully determine who my
accomplice is, they will be immediately

removed from the house.

If they remain undetected, they will
become a real house guest.

The house went on the hunt to find the
mystery accomplice.

Literally everyone is a suspect.

And while some suspected Zay...

Five of you think Zay is my accomplice.

The majority thought it was Riley.

While 11 of you think Riley is my
accomplice.

But unbeknownst to them, it was actually
Amy.

I was the accomplice.

And she officially became a house guest.

Coming into this house, I wasn't a house
guest.

But now I'm officially in.

I'm a house guest on the show.

With Vince head of household...

Who wants to see my head of household
room?

Ashley treated herself to a nice,
relaxing shower in his HOH room.

Thank you for letting me use your shower.

Of course.

And the whole house took notice.

She's been gone for an hour and a half.

She didn't shower anything.

Although Vince had an agreement not to
target Ashley...

I feel like all of us going into HOH are
safe with each other.

Can we please agree to that?

Please.

The house wanted the lawyer disbarred.

Like a lot of people are trying to pin
Ashley.

That's the only name that keeps coming up.

With the game underway, Vince and Kelly
formed a final two.

I would love to have final two with you.

And day two final two...

As did Rachel and Amy.

We're in the mom spot.

This is good.

But Amy was also cool with Ashley.

I love Ashley.

She's super cute, super fun.

I love her energy.

She's super sweet.

So she went to bat for her with Vince.

Inadvertently making herself a target too.

I didn't even know that Ashley and Amy
were that close.

And now I know.

So it almost makes me more incentivized to
just put them both on the block.

Meeting three nominees, Vince also had his
eye on Zay.

With there being two competitions,
twice as many opportunities to get off the

block if you wanted to.

I obviously don't, would prefer to not go
up.

At the first nomination ceremony of the
season, Vince's victims were revealed.

I've nominated you, Zay, Amy and Ashley.

Tonight, the power of veto is on the line.

Will it be used to save one of the
nominees?

It's a shocking first veto meeting of the
summer.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Before we get up, I want to say something
real quick.

All this right now on Big Brother.

This nomination ceremony is adjourned.

Because the BB Blockbuster is now a
permanent aspect of the game, I had to

nominate three people instead of two.

And I decided to nominate Zay,
Amy and Ashley.

It is what it is.

Amy, I kind of view her more as like a
pawn situation.

Actually, I'm fine.

I'm totally fine.

But for Zay, he still might be the BB
accomplice.

And that's all the reason I need to put
him on the block.

I love you.

Ashley and I had an agreement,
but she's acting more paranoid than anyone

else in the house.

He's a liar.

And that makes me feel like I can't trust
her.

So now I need to make sure that I win the
veto, because if any of my nominees take

themselves off the block, I'll have to
nominate another person and get even more

blood on my hands.

I can't risk that happening.

Hey, bro.

Let's ball out, okay?

For real.

After my talk with Vince, I'm not
surprised he nominated me.

And I'm hoping I'm just a pawn.

But luckily, I have two chances to save
myself.

First in the veto competition,
then in the BB Blockbuster competition on

eviction night.

So let's get it.

I'm here to compete.

You all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Ashley's nominated, and I'm not surprised.

I mean, he lied, but...

It's okay.

The shower definitely set her paranoia
off.

And honestly, it's just not a good look at
all.

Oh, don't cry.

Don't cry.

Being at risk to go home, it sucks.

Like, I really don't want my babies to be
sad at home.

Because we love Big Brother.

This is like our show.

I'm gonna go fight in this veto because
Mommy's not coming home yet.

Actually, I'm fine.

Let's play.

Why'd you lie?

About what?

You literally promised me I was not going
up to my face.

Right.

Let's talk.

But, yes.

Do you want to go upstairs?

Yeah.

I'm pissed.

Me and Vince had an agreement,
and he played me.

I thought he was a man of his word,
but he's clearly not.

Okay, tell me, what the heck changed
between last night and today?

I'm shocked right now.

I felt, like, comfortable.

What the heck happened?

Well, I figured...

Last night, we left, and you said you felt
fine with me.

I did.

And then this morning...

I didn't think you wanted to work with me.

Literally, when I was trying to make my
decision...

I'm so confused.

I got the impression it was the opposite,
and you were paranoid.

And I was like, if I'm gonna nominate you
at any point, I'd rather put you up up

front, so you compete in both...

I'm not winning this competition.

I'm really sorry.

I didn't want to...

Don't cry.

I'm sorry.

I just trusted you, and I feel stupid.

I didn't feel like you did trust me.

I did.

I'm just so confused.

Don't... I didn't... I felt like...

I'm really hurt by you.

I just feel like I trusted you.

Well, then I'm an idiot.

Then I'm gonna look like an idiot then,
because...

You are.

I was trying my best to get a read on
everything, and I just didn't feel like...

You got the wrong read.

Honestly, I'm over it.

Ashley, no.

You're gonna compete.

No, you're gonna compete, and you could
win.

I hate everyone.

I'm pissed.

No, Ashley.

You can compete, and you can win,
and you can do really well, and you can

win HOH next week.

And then you put me on the block.

I will!

It is... It's hard, because I trusted him.

I'm going home.

No.

And he broke the agreement.

And now I could be the first one going
home.

I'm upset, because I didn't trust you.

I genuinely wanted to work with you.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Let's think.

Hold on.

Hold on.

Hold on.

Let's think for a second.

I think you might hold this against me,
but if there's any way I can save face in

any way, let's say I win Veto.

If I pulled you off, would that make up
for this?

I would trust you, yes.

Would that make up for this?

I would trust you.

Look, would I use the Veto on Ashley if I
actually won?

No.

Why would I do that?

But when she's emotional and she's upset,
the only thing I can think to do to calm

her down a little bit is to offer
potentially using the Veto on her.

This is the realest conversation.

This is the closest I've felt to you in a
weird way, because you're, like,

livid at me.

But for some reason, this is the closest
I've felt to you yet.

I just feel dumb.

He starts saying that he feels like he
regrets his decision and that he would

maybe, you know, pull me down if he wins
the Veto.

But I think he's a crock of ****,
okay?

All of his words mean nothing to me.

It's just blah, blah, blah, blah,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

If he lied before, he'll lie again.

And I never should have trusted that
stinky little mustache on the top of that

nasty face.

So I'm going hard for this Veto,
and I need to win it.

If I'm on the block, I'm going home.

You might not be on the block.

Compete for the Veto.

I'm gonna g*n for it, too.

How much do you hate me?

I tried to do the best with what
information I had.

I understand.

I just, I don't think it was the right
move for you.

I'm so confused.

I don't understand.

Do I look like a threat to you?

Do I look like a threat to you?

I don't.

I shouldn't be.

And why am I?

I'm not.

Or maybe I am.

I don't know.

But I don't respect this man.

This move, I think it was a weenie move.

And if I, if I look like an idiot,
then I have to deal with that.

And all you can do is, like, make your
decision based off what makes the most

sense at that time.

It's okay.

It's like... I understand.

You're handling it so much differently
than I expected.

Good job, weenie.

Yeah.

It just sucks to be the first week like,
what?

I don't feel like anyone should be
threatened by me in this house.

I'm just so frustrated.

Don't give up.

Oh, I'm not giving up.

I will not give up.

I appreciate the support.

I really do.

I appreciate the love.

My big brother experience, I was either
nominated or HOH.

So I've been nominated a lot, and I
understand it sucks.

Yeah.

I really like Amy, like, just genuinely
like her because of the mom squad.

So if I was picked to play in the veto,
if I win the veto, I am gonna pull Amy off

the block.

Rachel Riley doesn't not make waves,
so like, I've gotta be Rachel.

You have a veto, and you have a
blockbuster.

I have two opportunities to eat myself
off.

I'm gonna go out and try to win this
thing.

Wait, rinse the side of your face real
quick.

The right side.

Rinse the right side of my face?

Yeah, I don't know if something got on
your face.

Oh.

Do you see anything?

No.

Okay, never mind.

Thank you.

I appreciate that, I need that.

I'm really happy with the way that
we're...

Yeah, it seems like we're on the same
wavelength.

Yeah, right.

Vinny and I have an agreement that we will
take each other to Final Two.

And even though I offered myself off as a
pawn, Vince didn't take me up on my offer.

But that doesn't mean I'm not willing to
take big risks in the future.

I'm here to play this game.

And you're the one person who makes me
feel the most, you know, comfortable.

You're my number one.

Legitimately.

Yeah, so that makes me feel good.

So for checkmate, that's against a king,
right?

Yep.

Oh, okay.

I really do want to learn to play chess.

But like, anytime I try to focus on
anything, my brain starts...

Anything?

Not anything.

No, no, I agree.

Have you been in relationships?

No.

Like at all?

No.

Wait, like at all?

You've been on dates?

Yeah.

It just, it just has never...

Well, like, I do, but like, I... I'm also
like kind of picky.

Oh, I'm very picky.

Yeah.

I'm like, I don't... I call it high
standards.

It's me too, and it takes me a while.

I'm also like shy.

Interesting.

I don't know.

I think I'm competitive.

Competitive.

Even though I don't like...

This is a multi-layered onion that we're
just slowly feeling.

No, there's a lot to it.

With Lauren, it's ridiculous how she's
exactly my type.

Like, she is so sweet.

She is the sweetest person I think I've
ever seen in my entire life.

And I love that.

But I'm trying to figure out how to keep
my feelings in check.

So...

Before I came, I made my prayers and I was
like, please let me have like one or two

people that enjoy my presence and that I
can like talk to and won't hate me.

That's so cute.

And like, you know what I mean?

That is the cutest thing, yeah.

Zach is a really nice guy, but I've seen
other seasons of Big Brother before and

showmances can paint this target on your
back.

And with this cast, something as small as
a shower situation can get you put on the

block.

So I think Zach and I are going to be
friends for now.

Whatever's meant to be will be.

I like truly believe that.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Normally I'm fine.

And like us, I'm super fine.

You need to like really be happy with
yourself because you're gorgeous, Katherine.

That's very sweet.

Are you looking at your reflection?

Yeah, I'm trying to see if my hair looks
like...

Hey, Riley, is this your laundry?

Yes, ma'am.

Oh, I mean, we can fold it and move it
over here if that's okay.

No, no, I can do it.

You have a crush on Katherine.

She's pretty.

I don't know, it's only like day six.

That's okay.

Oh, I knew I was in love with Brendan on
day four.

I am clearly pro showmance.

I am like, get the showmances going in
this house, people.

I found the love of my life on Big
Brother.

So like, I would love for all of them to
find the loves of their lives too.

Plus, it distracts them from the game.

I just think she's freaking gorgeous.

She is gorgeous.

Like actually.

And she has like a beautiful personality
too.

Yeah, that's what I like about her.

I started kind of getting comfortable like
talking to her, you know?

I just want to get to know her personally
as a human, you know?

In this house, like relationships develop
on a deeper level and they develop like

very quickly.

I enjoy the presence of Catherine.

Whenever I'm around her, I just can't stop
looking at her for some reason.

And she just makes my heart like just
start racing.

I told my mom no showmances, but I didn't
tell my mom that I wouldn't have a little

crush.

You got me kind of blushing up here a
little bit.

That's funny.

Yeah, I don't know.

I just want to see where it leads,
you know?

Just start like on a friendship basis and
see what happens.

Is it kind of obvious though?

No.

I mean, maybe a little, but like not in a
bad way.

Not in like affecting your game in a bad
way.

Really?

You promise?

I promise.

I will tell you.

Appreciate that, Rachel.

Ashley and Amy are reacting opposite to
what I expected.

I thought Ashley was going to be like
stone face.

I thought Amy was going to be bawling her
eyes out.

But I really don't think I had any other
choices.

It's a tough call.

I'm not going to take it personal.

Like I feel as good as I can feel while
being on the block.

I actually am excited to compete and take
myself off, you know, build that roster a

little bit, like show people that I'm here
to play.

Most people week one would be really upset
at an HOH for putting them on the block.

But instead of using this opportunity to
make an enemy, I'm going to use it to make

an ally.

Honestly, as long as I don't go home this
week, I don't see a scenario where I put

you up in any way if I get HOH.

There's no blood on your hands on my end.

Like, I think it's best if Ashley goes.

I agree.

I really wasn't sure who my target was
between Zay or Ashley, but they're

handling the nominations completely
opposite ways.

Ashley is very emotional and
confrontational, whereas Zay would

possibly want to work with me at some
point.

So at this moment, it becomes extremely
clear that I need to keep these

nominations the same.

And it would be best for my game that
Ashley just goes home this week.

I don't know, as long as nothing crazy
happens, like Ashley winning, veto.

This is the best I feel like I've looked
in a while.

I call it slob ways.

Yeah, slob ways.

I thought you said you like slob ways.

No, literally, because like, wait,
y'all see this.

No, I see the... Girl, I didn't realize
you had all of that.

I'm not gonna lie.

That's what we call a Barburrito Booty,
because my grandma, like her maiden name

is Barburrito.

And so all the women in my family have
like really fat asses.

Insane.

How do you think I got on the show?

What am I doing?

All right, let's figure this out.

The washing machine at home isn't like
this one.

Back home, my washing machine goes like,
it's the top one.

And this one's like a side one.

Cool.

Wait a minute.

Hold on.

Can I pause this?

Wait a minute.

Ah, that's better.

Oh my gosh.

Why are you yelling at me?

Okay, I'm glad you yelled at me.

Because I didn't know I had it off.

My bad.

My bad.

What the heck?

What's going on here, bud?

I don't know what he wants.

You're yelling at me, but you're doing
nothing.

Anyways, anyways.

Finally, this thing starts to work and I
can get back to my workout.

I don't know what you want, bro.

You're putting my feelings here.

So, everything I know about you leading up
to this, that you're so horrible,

blah, blah, blah.

So, it's just like, bro, get to know the
actual person.

So, what was your motivation for coming
here?

I was just about to ask you the same
thing.

So, you asked me first, so.

For me, it's, so my dad has cancer.

And so, my motivation is a lot like,
obviously I want to be able to like,

provide my family some sort of financial
relief.

If God forbid my dad ever like,
takes a turn for the worst.

What kind of cancer does he have?

Cancer in his spine.

But there have been moments where it
hasn't looked so good.

And I felt like I could see like, the
fight kind of leaving him a little bit.

It's just like, I don't ever want to be in
a position where, where he would have to

like, feel like that, you know?

You know how hard it is to even like,
come up with the strength?

Like, for me, it was like, he didn't give
up.

I just want to make him proud,
you know?

I've had to see my dad like, relearn how
to walk and fight for us.

So, I know that I can fight for him.

Thank you for sharing that.

Yeah, absolutely.

Can I give you a hug?

Absolutely.

The conversation with Keanu, it makes me
realize he's not just this like,

Dungeons and Dragons football player,
goofy guy.

He's deep and he's emotional.

And the fact that he trusts me enough to
open up to me.

He's definitely someone that I want to
keep in this game.

On my season, we all woke up and the
memory wall photo had like, X's over the

pictures.

And we were like, What does it mean?

What does it mean?

Why is this going on?

It's no secret that I was not happy when
Rachel walked in this house.

But the more I thought about it,
the more I think I could use her to help

run this house the next few weeks.

If you keep your enemies close, it's a lot
harder for them to stab you in the back.

That did like, stir the pot too.

Because we were all like, who would do
that?

Oh my god, they're so evil.

I'm sure that's nerve wracking walking
into the house being the only like,

returner, right?

Yeah, I'm happy that I have safety.

Because I do feel like it would just be
like, oh, that's the easy thing to do.

Right.

But I don't think that's a smart game
move, because I don't think I'm ever going

to win.

Like, nobody's voting for me in the end.

So your low-key argument is like,
I'm a smart person to take to top two.

Oh, that's like, not low-key, high-key.

Like, high-key, keep me around.

I know my reputation coming into this
house, so I have to do everything that I

can to lower my threat level.

If they all think that I'm the absolute
best person to bring to final two,

then I think that I could like,
stay in this house a lot longer.

So do you know like, who you're trying to
work with in this house?

I know, I'd love to have a chat with you.

Like, what's the move?

Like, pull together like, a majority to
start picking off people?

I think there's definitely strategy to
like, working toward a goal.

A common goal.

Yeah.

With people that you can work with.

Yeah.

After talking with Rachel, I really feel
like she wants to work with me,

and I feel like I can trust her.

So maybe this is our chance to gather some
troops, build a strong alliance,

and run this house.

I mean, at least as long as she's useful
to me.

Let's be real.

I'm seeing this alliance, and I'm only
telling this to you, by the way.

Yeah, I know, yeah.

My goal this week is to make sure a bro
goes packing before they have a chance to

get power.

But Zach is one I feel like I can work
with.

The way I think it works is a small group
of like, five or six.

I think six maybe is a better number.

It's like, strong players.

Yeah.

So who are the people we want to get in
here?

Who are you and I comfortable with?

I think both of us are really comfortable
with Morgan.

Yeah.

I think we're really comfortable with
Vince.

Yeah.

Do you think we should include Rachel?

Yeah.

Rachel's played this game a hundred times.

I actually think she could help our game
more than hurt it.

Do you want Riley to be a part of this?

I think Riley needs to be a part of it.

Okay.

Mainly because like, I think everybody
likes Riley.

A hundred percent.

Tall, skinny, bull rider.

Right.

I think that's a good start.

I just like, you and I kind of being the
core of that.

I agree.

Jimmy and I really want to work together
because we're both winners on night one.

And so we instantly have that connection.

But we're going to need more numbers.

And so the people that we're bringing up
are very strong in competitions.

And nobody is going to assume that we're
all working together.

I want to get this group together to make
sure we're all on the same page.

Maybe midnight.

Because like, nobody's in this room at
night.

Yeah.

Midnight.

Boxing room.

We're in a small group together.

Okay.

Midnight, right?

Midnight.

Okay.

Midnight.

Midnight.

Okay, what should we call this little
group?

Because the purpose of this meeting is to
get everyone together to name it.

And what about...

A lot of times when I'm thinking,
my brain goes to sports stuff.

Like Hall of Famers.

Hall of Famers is cute.

It's going to keep them safe.

Something that's like, strong,
well-rounded.

Has there been a line that's called the
heavy hitters?

Wait, I like that.

That's kind of nice, right?

I really like heavy hitters.

Sports.

Men's boxing.

Heavy hitters.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am here to
introduce to you the greatest alliance of

Big Brother 27.

The heavy hitters.

We are going to be knocking out our
competition week by week.

So stay tuned.

Strap up your boxing gloves and get ready
to fight with us.

Let's go.

First off, we all know why we're here.

Yes.

You guys have been called to this meeting.

What I was thinking was heavy hitters.

Ooh.

I think he chilled.

That goes hard.

I like that.

Kelly is still my number one in this game,
but she's only one individual person.

I need people who can keep me safe.

Especially because I can't even
participate in the next HOH competition.

This is the best group I could have
possibly dreamed of.

When someone says to you, do you want to
be in an alliance and meet in our secret

meeting?

Like, of course you say yes, because it's
Big Brother.

But do I want to be in an alliance with
those guys?

Absolutely not.

But I want to take them out one by one.

My allegiance is to Amy and the Mom Squad


Who's ready to be a heavy hitter,
guys?

Let's go!

Now, it's hard to get everybody in one
room in the Big Brother house without

looking suspicious.

So now I need to go talk to Riley and make
sure he's in.

We're the heavy hitters.

That's pathetic.

I got Zach, me, you, Morgan, Rachel,
Vince.

Being a part of this alliance of heavy
hitters, I couldn't be more thankful for

it.

As long as they want to keep this bull
rider in the dang rodeo, then,

hey, I'll stay on the back of that
sumbitch.

I'm sorry, I said b*tch.

Okay,

where will you occupy next?

Maybe I'll go upstairs.

I don't know.

What are you doing?

If you go up there, I'll probably end up
going back up.

Ugh.

Keanu, please, you gotta chill.

You are bippin' and boppin' all over the
house, and every room I go into, I see you.

You know, I'm gonna go make myself some
tea.

I love you, man, but you gotta give me a
little bit of space, brother.

Oh, you think your body's the tea?

It's an F.

Oh my God.

I wanted to come check it out,
because I heard you yelling, so...

Ava, you're crushing it, dude.

Well, yeah, no.

Vibes, vibes, vibes.

Rock on.

I love your psychedelic vibes.

You're making plays out there.

Yeah, absolutely doodly.

All right, I'll leave you to your dancing.

No, all right, thank you.

I can't promise I won't come back in here,
though.

Oh my God.

No, okay, no worries.

I'm not hurting you.

I can't promise I won't come back in here.

No, sounds good, bro.

Sounds good.

I just feel like whenever I'm alone,
I'm never truly alone, because Keanu's

always there.

I think about him walking in right now.

You're never truly alone, because Keanu's
always there.

Yeah.

And I'm like, listen, do I think he's a
bad person?

No.

But I'm like, bro.

..

At least my picture looked good up there.

It did.

Dang, bro.

Worst case scenario for me is if one of
them wins the veto, then I might be in hot

water.

Between me and you, I'm nominated to go
play in that veto competition.

I'd love to take you off.

It just really comes down to my
relationship with Vinny.

I would make it really clear with you.

Like, I'm being quite honest.

Yeah, yeah.

I would appreciate that.

I like Zay.

He's somebody that feels like a bro,
and he's really genuine to me.

Part of me really wants to save Zay in
this veto.

But I just made an alliance with Vince,
who just nominated Zay.

And I'm a have-not, and this week all of
the have-nots are safe.

So, honestly, I don't even want to get
picked for this veto competition.

Like, I want you here.

And if it happens like that, sweet.

But I do want to win the veto,
and I'm going to take myself off.

Yeah, yeah.

You're really good, dude.

Like, I'm not for real.

Hey, everyone.

Time to pick players for the veto
competition.

First veto, baby.

Let's go.

Where's Ashley?

Ashley's still in the shower.

Ashley's still in the shower.

We're waiting on Ashley.

You're in the shower again?

Ashley's on the block because of the
shower situation.

If I were her, I would never shower again.

I genuinely want to know what is with this
girl in showers.

Only six people will participate in the
veto competition.

The head of household, the three nominees,
and two other players selected by random

draw.

Will the nominees please join me up here?

I'm hoping some of the heavy hitters get
picked for this veto, since we are in a

formal alliance.

Hopefully I can convince them to keep noms
the same and ensure that I don't need to

nominate a fourth person.

The winner of the golden power of veto is
safe for the week and has the power to

remove one of the nominees from the
chopping block, including themself.

I, as head of household, will pull two
chips out of this box to determine the two

other players competing in the veto
competition.

This box contains a chip for every
eligible house guest.

If I pick my own chip or one of the
nominees' chips, that person gets to

choose any player they want.

As HOH, I will pick.

I'm hoping Rachel gets picked for this
veto competition because I know she will

fight for me like I would fight for her.

Amy!

I choose Rachel.

I would love to see Zach in the veto
competition.

I know he has my back and he is a fierce
competitor.

He's super athletic and super smart.

Zach!

Of course I get picked to play for this
veto.

Zay's my brother.

He wants me to save him.

However, Vince and I are in an alliance
and he probably wants his nominations to

stay the same.

If I win it, I'm going to really be in a
tough spot.

Bro, I'm like out of all the people.

Big Brother will inform us when the
competition is to begin.

Good luck.

Nobody who got picked for this veto is
going to take me off the block.

So these picks are giving... Ashley,
you need to go out there and win that veto.

Who has the nerve to join us?

Did you see me?

Yeah.

Oh, good.

I brought you slop.

Oh, my goodness.

I was hoping that you guys would be here.

So, here's the thing.

I don't want noms to change.

In my perfect world scenario, I win veto,
leave them the same.

Zay wins, blockbuster, Ashley goes home.

I don't want to re-nom a fourth person.

That's not ideal in any situation.

Sorry, Vince.

I don't think you know who you're talking
to.

Because if I win this veto, I'm using it
how I want to.

And I've got to keep my girl, Amy, safe
and keep Mom Squad together a lot longer.

If I had the option, I would pull Zay off.

But the worst thing that I wanted was for
my name to pop up.

I should be excited by Zach and Rachel
being picked since we have an alliance

together.

And yet, neither of them are telling me
that they would keep nominations the same.

I need to win the veto competition because
I'm the only one who would keep noms the

same.

I'm going to lean on all of you.

This is all I have.

And I was like, there's no way I'm going
to be picked.

Zach got picked for the veto and he showed
us on night one that he's a good

competitor.

But I have an idea of how I can increase
my chances of winning the veto and getting

myself off the block.

Listen, I'm not stupid.

I know you're not going to use it on me
because I know I'm like a target in the

house.

My position is not to win it.

What does that do for you, winning?

Because when you're safe, right?

I know.

But also, now you've won two competitions.

You're on people's radar.

Trust me, I've thought this through.

Look, I'm a baseball player.

I'm somebody that has always been a
competitor.

However, Ashley really just wants me to
throw the competition.

She's given me a lot of reasons that make
sense for me.

I already won $10,000 and I have a secret
power-up that nobody knows about.

Do I really need to be creating a bigger
target on my back?

Well, I don't know what I'm doing.

And I say that like so open and honest.

Like I do not know what I'm going to do.

Hey everybody, it's time to play the veto
competition!

Sharpen your detective skills because
there's a new case to crack.

What in the CSI hell has happened in this
backyard?

I'm walking out to this yard and I am
smelling God knows what.

It is disgusting.

I'm really scared to be honest.

I'm scared.

Why does it smell like...

It does smell like that.

It does smell a little bit like some...

Something questionable actually.

Welcome to Felony Forest.

This once safe campsite was hit with a
string of odious offenses.

We need the best and brightest rangers to
help us put an end to these rancid

wrongdoings.

But those guys are busy so I guess you'll
have to do.

Let's go!

Here's how it works.

Three suspects were seen leaving Felony
Forest and it's your job to identify them.

On the sound of the bugle, leave your
ranger station and head to the three crime

scenes.

The tent, the outhouse, and the ranger's
car.

Each crime scene has a unique footprint,
tire track, and stench that will lead to

one of the crime suspects.

Once you've examined the scene,
head to the forensics lab to learn

critical information about the type of
shoes they were wearing, the type of

vehicle they were driving, and why these
crimes smell so bad.

Once you think you've pieced all the
evidence together, match the correct perp

to the correct crime scene and hit your
button to see if you've cracked the case.

If your light turns red, it means at least
one of those stinky suspects is still on

the loose.

So you'll need to get back in the field
and keep investigating.

But, if your light turns green,
that means you've solved all three cases

and you've just won the golden power of
veto!

Who's ready to play Campside Caper?

I know I have Rachel in this house,
and I'm grateful to have her here,

but I really need to win this for myself.

I need to show I'm a competitor.

I miss my kids, but I don't want to see
them till October.

So I've got to suck it up, smell these
nasty smells, and win this veto.

After talking with Vince, I have a feeling
that I am not his target this week.

But that doesn't mean I'm not going to g*n
for this veto.

And so I'm going to do everything in my
power to take myself off the block.

I'm entering this veto competition
completely alone.

I thought I could trust Vince,
but look where that got me, okay?

So I'm going to win this veto,
and I'm going to take my daggone self off

this block, because I am not going home
week one.

In this competition, there's three crime
scenes.

And there's evidence at each crime scene.

Somebody committed a crime at each scene,
and we need to figure out who it was.

Ranger Zach, reporting for duty.

Let's go, guys!

You got this!

My two new Rangers!

The footprint at this outhouse crime scene
has 22 treads at the top and 13 treads at

the bottom.

Looking at the footprint database,
I'm seeing that the shoes that match are

the rain boots.

I'm noticing on the tire track the
vertical lines are all evenly spaced.

Looking at the tire track database,
I'm realizing that the correct vehicle is

the garbage truck.

I can't believe I'm going to have to stick
my pretty little face in this dirty

looking outside toilet, okay?

I'm smelling all these nasty beakers in
the forensic lab.

I'm pretty sure this stench is squid.

Looking through all my suspect profiles...

Clearly Greg is the correct suspect for
the outhouse, because he was wearing rain

boots, he drives a garbage truck,
and for some reason he has a pet squid.

I run over to the rusty old car,
and the first clue I spot is a tire track.

This tire track is going in a downward
direction.

Then, I notice that there is a footprint.

There is a box by the car that totally
smells like beef.

So I need to keep that in mind when I go
to match it at the mobile crime lab.

Look hard!

The clues could be right under your nose.

I notice that the tire track has to be the
minivan.

I'm noticing that this shoe print matches
the running shoe.

Okay, I think I've identified these three
clues.

I see that two suspects are wearing
running shoes and driving minivans.

Barry and Lori.

Barry adds beef to his salad, and Lori,
well she's addicted to pulled pork.

Those two smells are really similar,
so this one is super difficult.

But I'm pretty sure the stench coming from
that toolbox is the beef.

So I'm definitely going with Barry.

Once I have a better idea of what the
clues are, then I'll work on figuring out

who committed the crimes.

The shoe print at the tent crime scene
looks like either the running shoe or

sneakers.

The running shoe only has five details in
the center of the shoe.

That means the correct answer has got to
be the sneaker.

Two lines on the tire track don't connect,
so I know it has to be the tow truck.

I'll be honest, I have a terrible sense of
smell and I can't figure out what the

stench is on this mattress.

Also, do I really want to be smelling some
dirty crime scene mattress?

I'm decently confident in the shoe print
and tire track, which really narrows down

my options for suspects.

I'm going to guess Melissa and hope I'm
right.

This competition is chaos and it smells
like a sewage tank.

It is horrible.

Like, I don't want any parts of this
competition.

Not at all.

There's so many different smells and it's
really hard when you smell the crime scene

and you run into the forensics lab and you
kind of forget what the first smell is.

It all smelled like Booty cheeks,
for real.

These smells are disgusting.

I have changed tons of diapers and this
smell is gross.

I'm losing focus.

I can't pay attention to anything.

All I'm focusing on is don't throw up in
front of all these house guests.

Like, you feel your stomach tense up.

You don't know if you have at least one of
the options correct.

So, that's when you have to become detail
oriented.

I've tried every single combination.

It's like I'm trying to crack the Da Vinci
code right now with all these different

guesses.

I feel really confident about the outhouse
and tent crime scene.

But it's this dang car crime scene I can't
figure out.

I like to think Zach would use the power
of veto on me, but I don't want to have to

rely on him to get me off the block.

So, I've got to win this for myself.

But I just need to find one more suspect.

I know that none of these people are going
to use the veto on me, so I've got to come

through with this win.

I'm pretty sure I have the right suspects
for the car and the outhouse.

So, all I need is to grab one more
suspect.

Let's go, Ashley!

You got this!

I think I've almost solved all the crimes.

I feel really confident about the outhouse
and tent crime scenes.

But it's this dang car crime scene I can't
figure out.

I'm pretty sure I know the right footprint
and the right tire track, but it's the

smell that's stumping me.

It's really coming down to the wire,
and I have to win to take myself off the

block and prove I'm a competitor.

These all look the same, bro.

I feel really good about the suspects I
chose for the car and the outhouse.

Now I just need to figure out the suspect
for the tent.

I'm pretty confident about the tire track
and the footprint, but I'm stuck on the

smell.

I just need one more whiff of this smell,
and I think I can figure out the suspect.

Yep, that's definitely potato.

I love French fries, I love tater tots,
baked potato, sweet potato.

I can deduce that Melissa is the suspect
I'm looking for.

Melissa wears sneakers, drives a tow
truck, and she grows her own potatoes.

So, Melissa, you're the suspect.

I gotcha!

You have won the Golden Power!

I just won the first Golden Power veto of
the summer!

Thank you so much!

Words cannot express how excited I am to
pull off this win.

My back was against the wall, and I did
it, baby!

Ashley was the choice to go home this
week, so it was the worst-case scenario

for my game that she wins.

I'm disappointed in myself for not
securing my own safety, but I still have

the BB Blockbuster, and I'm gonna go twice
as hard so I know I'm nowhere near that

block on eviction night.

I was not manifesting a loss today.

Now I just gotta focus on manifesting a
win in that BB Blockbuster.

Not only am I nauseous from all these
smells, now I'm sick to my stomach because

my target wins the veto, and now I need to
name a fourth nominee.

That was worst-case scenario by far.

Okay.

So, crazy.

That was worst-case scenario.

I feel irritated immediately.

Of course, the main target wins veto.

Worst-case scenario happens, my mind
immediately panics, because I know that I

need to nominate a fourth person in my
first week.

That's not ideal.

I don't know.

It's tough because I keep running through
scenarios of who I can or can't put up,

and my best-case scenario is I put you up
because you volunteered.

I want you to put me up.

Why?

It's easy for you.

I'm offering.

Then, you win...

Fingers crossed.

...the BB Blockbuster.

Then it remains Amy Zay.

I don't give a...

Fingers crossed.

Honestly, I'm ready to play it.

You feel that way right now?

Vince is somebody that is not only my
friend, but somebody that I want to go far

with in this game.

But I'm thinking, if he puts me up,
people aren't going to think that we're as

close as we are, and it shows him just how
loyal I am.

You all right?

Yeah.

You're fine.

You're fine.

Hug it out.

Hug it out.

Hug it out.

You had a really hard day.

It's just tough because, like,
you are my final two.

She's such a sweet human being.

Such a kind-hearted person.

And I think best-case scenario for my game
is to put Kelly on the block.

I'm just worried.

The dumbest thing you can do is put one of
your friends on the block.

You had, like, the hardest day possible.

I thought it was going to be a smooth
week, and immediately, it explodes.

I feel like it's such a high risk,
but it's also such a high risk.

It's such a high reward, but it scares me
even, like, putting you in that position.

If you go up, you have to be, like,


You have to have peace of mind just in
case, because I will not put you up unless

you have peace of mind.

It's a risk for sure.

But if it works, both of our games are
golden.

I'm winning.

I

was going to win today.

That's true.

Now you've got to make another nom.

Yes, I didn't like that.

It's not ideal.

Kelly, I can put Kelly on the block.



What if it's looking at Kelly or Keanu?

America, I've already told you that I want
a bro to go this week.

Now I'm working with two of them,
but there's one bro already on the block.

So that means there's just one bro left.

I hadn't even considered putting Keanu up.

I think it's something to consider.

I know Jimmy has a huge ego, so I'm going
to entertain the idea, but that makes no

sense for my game.

I'm good with Keanu.

I don't think Keanu would be coming after
me.

I'm not going to nominate Keanu.

That's a dumb move.

That's pointless for me.

That's upsetting more people.

You're smart.

Okay, so I think that's the game plan.

I have a chance to continue my proxy HOH
this week.

I mean, let's face it, Vince is going to
do whatever I tell him to do this week.

But putting Keanu on the block is a big
move.

So I want to make sure we have the house's
support before I make a move like that.

If he puts up Keanu, it accomplishes the
goal of breaking up the bros.

Yeah.

So like, the replacement, it could be
Keanu.

Nobody really knows where he stands.

What if Keanu goes up?

Vince is like, maybe I'll put Keanu up.

What?

I do not like hearing that Vince is even
considering putting up Keanu.

I've bonded with Keanu, and Amy's already
on the block.

If Keanu goes up too, that means that
definitely one of them is going to be on

the block for the eviction.

I really need to get ahead of this.

So do you, I'm saying.

After talking to everybody, I feel like we
have the support to send Keanu home.

So I'm feeling good.

I mean, like, I'm k*lling it, America.

Hello?

Do you see me?

Hahaha.

I'm evil.

I just heard that you might be the
replacement nominee.

What?

I know, and that is like, so bad for my
game.

Like, we need to make sure that does not
happen.

Who'd you hear that from?

Jimmy and Vinny said that they were
considering putting you up as the

replacement nominee.

Really?

Yes.

At this point, I've had a couple
conversations with Rachel.

I trust her enough that she's telling me
the truth here, but I'm not going to freak

out.

For all I know, this could be just a game
of telephone.

I want to hear it from the source.

Don't freak out.

I'm not freaking out.

Is that Jimbo?

Hi.

Hi, guys.

You're just going to blow your mind
because it blew my mind.

It hit me with it.

Rachel comes up to me, and I guess she
heard that you said that the options to go

up on the block, it was me.

I said that?

Yeah, that you said that.

No.

Why the f*** would I put you up?

Well, well...

To what benefit?

I don't know, man.

I'm trying to figure out who the f*** he's
like.

I think that came from Jimmy, if I'm being
honest.

I think that's something that he created.

I know exactly what Jimmy's doing.

Jimmy thinks he is running this house.

Jimmy thinks he has me in his back pocket.

Jimmy thinks my HOHs are Jimmy's HOHs,
and he could do anything he wants with me.

And he's putting my game at risk.

I'm telling you right now, you're not
going on the block.

I never said that, and I never would.

I start to think, maybe I should just blow
this whole thing up.

I'll just put Jimmy on the block,
and teach him a lesson that this is my

HOH, and just be done with it.

I love you, bro.

I love you, man.

You're good, and I know I'm good with you.

I

came here planning a win, so I'm going to
put $800,000.

You know what I mean?

I've been watching for 10 years,
so it's better, but it's not like I'm a

superfan or something.

I've rallied enough support to where I
feel like I can get Vince to put up Keanu

this week.

But, I want to make sure that this is the
right move for my game, and I'm not

misreading signs here.

Maybe if Keanu and I have a good
conversation, and I feel like I can trust

him, I'll tell Vince my concerns were
overblown, and that makes his week a lot

easier.

I don't envy Vince having to put up four
people this week, though.

That sucks.

Yeah, I know.

I mean, that's never fun, you know?

But, hey, whoever it is that gets put up
there, bro, they better play for their

life.

At least there is a blockbuster.

I've never been a fan of backdooring,
honestly.

I just think it's shady.

I'm straight up.

So you would agree that it's shady,
right?

Well, I would never do it.

I'm not a good liar.

Jimmy, I agree.

You're not a good liar, because you're
lying to me right now.

You're the one telling Vinny to make me
the replacement nomination.

Look, I'm going to give you every
opportunity you need to come clean.

But if you don't, you're just going to dig
yourself deeper.

Well, who did you then... because I heard
you want him to go talk to Vinny.

Who did you put up?

I didn't... well, he asked me,
like, who I thought would go up easy,

and I literally didn't give... I don't
even know.

I don't want anyone to go up.

Whoever he puts up, like, man, that's going
to create a huge enemy, whoever it is.

You think so?

Like you said, no one likes a backdoor
because it seems kind of backstabbing.

And then if it wasn't his idea,
bro, whoever he says it was, that's it.

That's it for them.

Yeah.

Let's just sit down for a second.

Do you mind?

I mean, it looks...

I don't think we've really chatted like
this.

Our voices carry.

I feel like... like that kind of behavior,
like, when you're really, really just

reckless like that, and you're just
like...

Are you talking about me or anybody in
general?

No, no, just in general.

When you said reckless, I was like,
okay.

No, if it was you, I'd tell you to your
face.

No, I was like, I appreciate that.

Like, if it was you, I'd be like this
close telling you to your face,

you know what I mean?

I was almost like, I wonder if Keanu
trusts me, you know what I mean?

Oh, dude, absolutely.

Like, you would never lie to me.

No.

During this conversation with Keanu,
I feel really good with him.

Moving forward, we may even be able to
work together.

I feel great with you.

I've shown you my authentic self.

I have no reason to go after you.

I mean, unless you give me a reason.

You guys good?

Yeah.

It's a really risky move, but if Jimmy
ends up on the block, the time to make a

move on him is right now.

Before he becomes, like, the powerful guy.

Clearly, Jimmy can't be trusted.

Why are we going to keep someone in the
house who's not good for either of our

games?

Put him up so we can take him out.

I think Jimmy's not playing a good game
right now, bro.

He's lying to everybody, bro.

And the people that aren't catching it are
going to, like, maybe align with him or

whatever.

Easy and no blood for you is me.

Hard, crazy, could possibly work,
could backfire pretty badly.

If it does.

I'm going to be okay if you put me up.

I'm alright.

I'm behind you no matter what you choose
to do.

I knew you would be.

At some point, we're going to have to make
that move, bro.

This would be an all-in.

I am really struggling with figuring out
who to name as my replacement nominee.

And Keanu is right.

Taking out Jimmy right now would be a huge
move.

But there's also a big chance that it
could backfire on me and it would tank my

whole game just as it's getting started.

Basically, I'm stuck with a high-risk
option in Kelly and an equally high-risk

option in Jimmy.

And I honestly don't know who to choose.

I would put all the poker chips in and
it's all or nothing.

What's up, Keanu?

Chillin'.

Hey, you're someone I really would want to
work with.

You in?

Yeah, I like you, bro.

Like, I'm down for anything.

I really like Ava and I feel like she
could be an asset to my game.

So I'm going to tell her exactly what
Jimmy's doing so if he tries to divide the

house, she's on my side.

You give me art lessons and I'll tell you
exactly what's going on in here.

Okay, vibes.

Is that a deal?

Yeah, deal.

Sounds good to me.

Well, I know Jimmy.

He's the head of the snake.

Damn.

Yeah, and there's not a clear divide,
but once there is a clear divide,

he's going to be the head of the snake on
the other side.

He's the one that's got the gift of the
gap.

He's the one that is able to form
relationships with people, you know?

No, I get what you're saying.

Absolutely.

So this first week, I've pretty much just
been vibing, especially because I'm safe

as I have not.

But Keanu brought me some game information
that could be really useful to me.

If I share this with Jimmy, that means
that him and Keanu would be going after

each other.

And that means less eyes on Ava.

Thanks, Keanu.

He was just like, oh, like, you know,
Jimmy, he's a snake.

That's crazy.

Thank you for telling me.

So after our conversation in the yard,
I actually thought I could trust Keanu.

And I was even toying with the idea of not
having Vince put him up this week.

But now I'm hearing he's calling me a
snake?

Are you kidding me, Keanu?

Who knows what else he's been saying?

For all I know, he could be telling Vince
to put me up on the block this week.

So I need to figure this out and I need to
do it now.

It's crazy how fake people can be in this
house, though.

I've been kind of in a pissed off mood all
night.

Keanu, did he throw my name under the bus
and say you should put me up?

Yeah.

You know how bad that'd look for you if
you put me up?

Oh my God, I know.

I'm telling Jimmy that Keanu does want
Jimmy on the block because I want to fan

the flames of this rivalry a little bit.

But before I'm thinking about it,
it might be a good idea to put Kelly on

the block just to make sure these two guys
are staying in the game and going after

each other.

I understand if you're gunning for each
other, that's fine, but...

I wasn't gunning for him until now.

We've got the veto meeting coming up,
so I'm going to use this opportunity to

expose to the whole house who the real
snake is.

I'm going scorched earth.

Keanu has no idea who he's messing with,
but he's about to find out.

I have no stake in this.

He just made a powerful out of me,
like I'm just saying.

Hey everyone, it's time for the veto
meeting.

This is the veto meeting.

Amy, Zay, 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.

Vince, since I have just vetoed one of
your nominations for eviction,

you will have to name a new house guest as
a replacement nominee.

This veto meeting is adjourned.

I know I volunteered to be a pawn,
but...

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Before we get up, I want to say something
real quick.

I want to get something off my chest,
and I want everyone to hear this.

Keanu, I thought we had a great chat
yesterday.

I thought we shook each other's hands,
said I trusted you.

Honestly, you were completely off my
radar, and I felt good about you.

But to hear you going around the house,
advocating for me to be up on that block

this week, and calling me a snake is
absolute bull...

And I want everyone to hear this,
because I'm not doing this chirp,

chirp, chirp bull... anymore.

You say I'm fake, you say I'm a snake,
and the only thing fake about me are these

damn sunglasses.

I'm sick of it.

I want everyone to hear me loud and clear.

I am gunning for you.

So buckle up, buddy, because this snake
has a bite.

That's it.

How long did it take for you to come up
with that?

That's all I have to say.

Well, I think the meeting's adjourned.

Congratulations, Jimmy.

Great performance.

Unfortunately for you, your plan didn't
work.

I'm still in the house.

And now I have a clear target.

See you at the next HOH, buddy.

I know I volunteered to be a pawn,
but apparently pawns go home.

I'm just hoping that this big risk pays
off with an even bigger reward.

Now I just need to focus on winning the BB
Blockbuster, so there's no way I'm in

danger of going home on eviction night.

This has got to be one of the craziest
weeks for any BB house guest ever.

I entered the house as a mastermind's
accomplice.

I earned my spot as a 17th house guest.

And here I am on the block week one.

I still have the Blockbuster, and I am
praying that I win that so I don't go home.

On one hand, I could be making a huge
mistake, putting my closest ally Kelly on

the block as a pawn.

But it seems like I've succeeded in
pinning Jimmy and Keanu against each other.

And having them focus on each other is
going to help me be able to sink back into

the shadows once my HOH reign is
officially over.

Which nominee will win the BB Blockbuster
and save themselves from the chopping

block?

And who will ultimately be the first house
guest evicted?

Plus, the mastermind returns to cause more
chaos.

All this, tomorrow night at 8,


Live on Big Brother.
