27x35 - Episode 35

[bunniefuu]

NARRATOR: Previously on "Big Brother,"

with the game nearing the end, Lauren lorded over

the final BB Blockbuster--

JULIE: Lauren, congratulations!

Yes!

JULIE: You are now officially off the block.

NARRATOR: --leaving a Kelley and Keanu showdown.

JULIE: The votes are in, and we have a tie.

NARRATOR: And the witch went flying.

I'm very sorry.

I love you both.

I vote to evict Kelley.

JULIE: It's official.

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

NARRATOR: The Mastermind had some terrifying news.

THE MASTERMIND: Will you be able to survive

double eviction night?

NARRATOR: With a double in play,

the HOH was back on the line.

And Morgan mastered the Mastermind's Matchup.

[DINGING]

JULIE: Congratulations, Morgan!

You are the new Head of Household.

NARRATOR: After nominations were made--

Keanu and Lauren are my nominations for this evening.

NARRATOR: --Keanu captured the Golden Power.

JULIE: Congratulations, Keanu.

You have won the Golden Power of Veto.

I ain't goin' home!

NARRATOR: The Butler saved himself--

Yeah, this isn't a surprise.

I'm gonna use it on myself.

NARRATOR: --sending Ava's bar burrito booty to the block.

Ava, I love you.

If you could just take a seat.

NARRATOR: It was a Long Island, Louisiana showdown.

JULIE: By a vote of two to one, Lauren, you are evicted

from the "Big Brother" house.

NARRATOR: And the Bayou Buddy bid adieu.

Now, with the final five set, the Mastermind's Month of

Mayhem kicks into high gear.

[EVIL CACKLING]

Who will win a brutal battle of endurance and take power?

Oh, my gosh!

NARRATOR: Plus, which two houseguests

will face the chopping block?

Find out right now on "Big Brother!"

KELLEY: Vince will, for the rest of the game,

do what Morgan wants.

[CHANTING] We're "Big Brother,"

the girls of "Big Brother."

Her name is Lauren, Bayou Baddie.

Oh, my God, Lauren.

[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]

- Wow. - Wow.

And she won the Blockbuster.

Wow.

I'm still riding the high of surviving

two evictions tonight.

It all started when Vince could have voted me out,

but he chose to save me.

I vote to evict Kelley.

Yeah.

JULIE: It's official.

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

So hopefully now, he and I can team up and run the table.

Man, it was a stressful night.

I didn't know if I'd be gone once Morgan

won Head of Household during the double eviction.

JULIE: Congratulations, Morgan.

Let's go!

JULIE: You are the new Head of Household.

Let's go!

Wow.

I did it!

I finally won HOH.

Yeah, of course, of course.

And now, it's time for me to do what Vinny didn't want to do.

And that's getting out Lauren.

[whispering] Yeah, OK.

I don't want to cause a big wave

and tell Lauren that she's my target.

Gotta keep it cordial.

But, girl, you gotta go.

[whispering] Well?

I don't want my HOH to be a repeat of last week's fiasco

with me and Vinny.

Do I want Lauren to go?

Yeah.

Am I gonna push it on to Vinny?

No.

[whispering] OK.

JULIE: Houseguests, it's time for the live nomination

ceremony to begin.

Keanu and Lauren are my nominations.

My noms are locked.

And now, all I need is for Lauren to not win the veto.

JULIE: Congratulations, Keanu.

You have won the Golden Power of Veto.

I ain't goin' home!

I can't let her go out like this.

So I have to at least try to campaign for her, then.

She already has my vote, and she only needs one more.

[TENSE MUSIC]

[whispering] Yeah.

[quietly] Because you can't vote against Ava.

JULIE: Houseguests, it's time to begin the veto meeting.

So please, gather in the living room.

Yeah, this isn't a surprise.

I'm gonna use it on myself.

Ava, I love you.

If you could just take a seat.

JULIE: By a vote of two to one, Lauren, you are evicted

from the "Big Brother" house.

Top five, baby!

I'm sad to see Lauren go.

But they better start taking me seriously

because there's only four more people left to take

out before you gotta crown me.

- We're locked down. - Oh.

[quietly] Yeah.

There's six.

Yeah.

I finally got Lauren out.

Now, she can't cause a wedge between Vinny and I,

and I feel great about that.

And we still got The Judges!

We are very close to final three, y'all.

I really wanted Lauren to stay in this game.

Even though I just saved Keanu with a tie-breaking vote,

I stand by that that was the right puzzle

piece move at that time.

But now we're in top five, and I know that Keanu

has to be my target.

And I need to get him out of this house.

You kept her safe like you promised, though.

Yeah.

Lauren was the most genuine person left in this house.

And now that she's gone, I still have Ashley.

But that's about all I have.

There's really nobody in the house that I trust.

It's pretty-- pretty devastating.

KEANU: days left, man.

That's it.

That's it.

- [whispering] Bro. - I know.

[whispering] We are right there.

I know.

I know you're sad, but this is over half the house.

I know.

And this would be the final three right here.

I'm planting the seed with Ava and Ashley.

So that way, if they win Head of Household,

they won't put me on the block.

But my ideal final three includes Vinny,

who just saved me over Kelley.

[whispering] Thank you, bro.

[quietly] I trust you, man.

So this deal is purely a safety precaution.

Plus, if they could take out Morgan,

then I get closer to Vinny, and that makes it even better.

[whispering] It's about that time now.

Let's call a spade a spade.

There's only five of us in this house, and one of them

happens to be Keanu.

OK, if Keanu wins the next HOH, he could take out Vinny

or Morgan, which is two big targets

that are standing in me and Ashley's way

of winning the $,.

Yeah, Keanu.

We definitely have not seen eye to eye,

but I gotta get to the end.

A girl's gotta do what you gotta do.

I still have The Judges alliance,

and they're good with me, which is great.

But I need to find a way to get Morgan out

because she's the strongest competitor in this house.

And if she makes it to the end, she will win this game.

So final three with Keanu and Ava sounds good with me.

You wanna play chess?

WILL: Oh, hell naw!

Keanu just offered us a final three.

But I feel closest with Ashley, so

having a final two with Ashley is what

I think is best for my game.

I think she's one of the only people I can

beat in the end in this house.

[whispering] I know.

As long as the two of us aren't on the block,

we've got the numbers.

Me and Ava are a solid voting block,

and we will decide who stays and who goes.

With five people left, two votes don't just

control the outcome.

They are the outcome.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

♪

[quietly] So I'm hoping I made the right decision

with Kelley instead of Keanu.

Only because Kelley is so unpredictable.

[whispering] All I cared was if Lauren stayed.

No, don't feel that way.

Look, this is "Big Brother."

Anyone can win HOH competitions.

And out of everyone in the final five,

I would say I'm the least close to Ava.

So if I can ingratiate myself with her,

I'll be in a much better spot.

Ava is not someone to sleep on because she can win.

And I'd like to be good with her, in case she does.

[quietly] There's a lot of big threats in the house.

I'm not winning the game.

[whispering] Oh, Vinny, don't say that.

At this point, I'm just chilling.

[quietly] I don't know who my best bet to get any votes

is, but I know who I lose by a landslide to.

[whispering] Keanu?

Yeah.

VINNY: They'd kick my a*s.

Oh, a landslide.

They'd kick my a*s.

[whispering] I don't know who my best bet is.

But frankly--

[quietly] It might be us in this room together,

if we're being completely honest.

If we're being honest about it!

I mean, I'm telling you, the most

twisted part of the season.

[LAUGHS]

Kind of have to send each other.

Vinny, quit blowing smoke up my a*s!

I find it very convenient that Vinny is coming to me

before the HOH competition to tell me

exactly what I want to hear.

My priority is me and Ashley getting to the end.

So, Vinny, if I won HOH, you would still be on the block.

I don't know how we got here, but--

Karmically, brother.

♪

I'm gonna take my contacts out.

What was I gonna-- oh, yeah.

Do you think we're on--

- Oh, there it is. - Oh, no!

Knew it.

Oh, my God, what is going on?

I'm hearing static from the living room.

It's probably bad news.

Can I just enjoy being final five for two seconds?

[MUTED]

What is going on?

[STATIC HISSING]

Oh, gosh.

Anytime we hear that sound, we know the Mastermind is coming.

And that means something crazy is about to happen.

Who knows what this maniac has in store?

"Saw!"

Aw, look, only five of you left.

Julie will be sending another one of you

home at the next eviction.

But that got me thinking.

Why does she get to have all the fun?

Before Julie oversees the next live eviction,

I'm taking over the game and will send one of you

to Jury first.

So how will my game play out this time?

Well, you will play HOH.

There will be nominations, and a Veto

will be up for grabs, all leading

to a unique eviction vote.

But how and when will these events unfold?

Well, that's a mystery.

You'll never know when my mayhem will manifest.

So I recommend you be ready day and night.

The next few days will challenge

you like never before.

And it will culminate with one of you

becoming my latest sacrifice.

Wait, what?

Oh, my Dawn.

THE MASTERMIND: When the bell tolls,

enter my secret sanctum within Hotel

Mystere, where you will battle to save your pathetic lives.

Oh, it's a competition.

What?

This is crazy.

The Mastermind is talking about an HOH, a Veto,

and a unique eviction vote?

What the hell does that mean?

What I'm getting from this is I have to be

alert at all times of the day.

Oh, wow!

When we hear the bell, we have to enter the Mastermind's

sacred sanctum.

And I don't know what it could be,

but I'll never bet against myself.

So bring it on.

Wow.

I am scared, OK?

I'm scared!

I don't know what it's about to be like.

It's giving spooky.

It's not Halloween yet!

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Yes, yes.

- [whispering] And win. - Yes.

- An and win. - Yes.

Both-- both of the above.

I cannot compete in HOH.

So I need Ashley and Vinny to pull out a win.

Because if Keanu wins HOH, he is

going to do everything that he can to make

sure that I leave this house.

This is just the beginning of it,

and there will be more parts.

♪

I feel so guilty saying this, but I want Morgan

to leave the house this week.

She is by far the strongest competitor here.

She's someone I know I will come in second place to.

Guarantee.

[TENSE MUSIC]

[BELL TOLLING]

KEANU: OK!

Farewell.

VINNY: No, no, no!

Don't like this. Nope!

Do not like this.

KEANU: Here it is, pressure cooker.

VINNY: Oh, my God.

Walking into the Mastermind's sanctum, I'm in shock.

I'm a dungeon master, but this is my first time

in a real dungeon.

Oh, my gosh.

Hello, mere mortals.

Welcome to my secret sanctum.

You've made it this far in the game.

But if you want power this week,

you'll have to undergo my torturous and twisted trial.

Here's how my game works.

Your goal is to stand on your platform

and hold an effigy of my mask by using

your sword to press it against the altar as long as possible.

But let my mask fall, and you have failed my trial

and are out of this competition.

The last player standing will be bestowed power, as I make

you the new Head of Household.

Are you ready to play Torturous Trial?

[whispering] Oh my gosh, this sucks.

Please tell me I can watch.

Being in the top five is amazing.

But I did not come this far just to get out now.

I need to win this HOH to guarantee my safety

and ensure that there is no way that I end up on this block.

I have sacrificed way too much.

And I want to be the one to make the big moves to set

me up for success in the end.

Not only do I have The Judges with me, Morgan and Vince,

but I also have a final three with Ava and Keanu.

I think I might be in the best position in the house

right now.

Although I've been relying on my social game,

it is about time I have an HOH win.

I'm ready to make some big moves in this game.

[SIGHS]

I just survived two evictions and won a Veto.

We're getting to the end of the game here.

I need my resume to be as impressive as possible.

By winning this HOH, I secure my spot in the final four.

And I need all the safety I can get, especially

without a Blockbuster.

If I win, I can get Morgan out this week,

and then set up my ideal final four.

I lost two allies in Kelley and Lauren.

And even though I made a final three with Ashley and Keanu,

the scenario I feel most in danger with right

now is Vinny winning the HOH.

I can never really trust the man.

[TENSE MUSIC]

My trial begins now.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

♪

We have this fencing type sword

that's really kind of flimsy.

And you need to put enough pressure

to hold this weighted Mastermind face up

against this glass circle.

And if you waver for even a second or remove pressure,

even an ounce, it could slip and fall,

and you're eliminated.

♪

My strategy for this competition

is to slightly lean forward and switch out my arms,

so I can constantly have some blood flow

so my arms don't cramp up.

♪

This is an endurance comp, so it really is mind over matter.

Maybe I should have done some more curls this summer.

Let's be honest.

Most of the time I'm laying down.

So standing this long is just too much for me.

♪

Well, frig.

THE MASTERMIND: Ava, you have failed my trial.

Deuces.

I'm out pretty early, and it's really disappointing.

Is it hard?

It hurts.

I'm really hoping that Ashley or Keanu

can pull this win through.

And then, we can target Vinny and Morgan,

and I don't have to see the block.

They say you make plans, and God laughs.

VINNY: Now, it's down to Ashley, Keanu, and myself.

The pressure is really on with this one because I

can't trust anyone else.

We're already dealing with the Mastermind.

The last thing I want to deal with right

now is a mayhem-filled week of a Keanu HOH.

[DRAMATIC FLOURISH]

[quietly] Oh, my God, I can't watch this.

[UPBEAT MUSIC]

♪

Vince, Ashley, and I are in the Mastermind's sanctum,

competing for Head of Household.

I'm feeling really solid right now,

and I want to win so that I can have full control of the noms

this week.

My plan is to put Ashley and Morgan up,

so that I can get Morgan out of this house.

Ashley's looking pretty good.

[SIGHS]

[whispering] God, this hurts.

My legs are trembling.

My arms are shaking.

I'm sweating.

The sword is finicky.

I mean, one sudden movement, and you might just slip.

It's not looking too good for me.

[whispering] Come on, Ashley.

I do worry that I might get a cramp while I'm doing this.

If so, I'm just gonna power through it

and probably shed some tears.

This is definitely an endurance comp,

and we could be here all night.

Should have had a banana before this one.

[TENSE MUSIC]

♪

[BUZZER]

Oh, Ashley's out.

Oh.

THE MASTERMIND: Ashley, you have failed my trial.

This sucks.

I am so disappointed.

It is down to Vince and Keanu.

And dare I say, I am low key rooting for Keanu to win.

I think Keanu would make a huge move by putting both Morgan

and Vince on the block.

I was really hoping Ashley would win.

But by the twist of fate, I'm really hoping

Keanu pulls this through.

And those are words I never thought I'd say.

You want one more prompt, Keanu?

Win this HOH competition!

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

When did you start skating?

First grade.

First grade?

How old was I?

Oh yeah, you know what?

I think I was in first grade, too.

Ashley leaves the sanctum.

And you know what?

I'm gonna take advantage.

Vinny and I never get to just hang out, the two of us.

I'm feeling so good, I feel like I could be

in here for a few more hours.

Talking to Vinny, catching up, talking about life.

It was all--

- Like VHS skate tapes? - Yeah.

- Yo, that's sick. - Yeah.

My mom has, like, my first hair that I got cut ever.

Damn!

My mom has my umbilical cord.

It's down to Keanu and myself.

And now all of a sudden, when it's just us two, Keanu

becomes pretty chatty.

It makes it a lot more difficult to concentrate when

Keanu is yapping my ear off.

And I think he's doing this as a tactic to distract me,

but I'm not losing any focus on this one.

This isn't even a punishment. This is a treat.

I get to spend time with my boy.

[CHUCKLES]

Morgan was helping Ashley put on that belt

for, like, an hour and a half.

Oh, my gosh.

Who was your favorite skater growing up?

That's a tough question.

Vince is my boy.

He doesn't have to worry about me in power.

Outside perspective is that Morgan is Vince's number one.

But I don't really know.

I think that's only because she spends hours a day with him.

For all I know, I could have jumped to the front of the line

because she spends of those hours arguing with him.

[quietly] Keanu's gonna probably try to strike a deal.

Well, they are talking.

[whispering] Yeah.

Keanu looks as solid as can be.

He's using one hand.

He's looking at me while talking half the time.

But I am winning this competition for myself.

I'm sorry, Keanu, if you want to just hang out and talk.

But I am gonna do everything, anything, whatever

it takes to win this comp.

They're probably just talking.

But they might be cutting a deal, too.

It is down to Keanu and Vinny.

I have never wanted to throw up more in my life!

This is going to determine if Vince

and I can make it together in the final five or not.

I need Vinny to pull this through.

I feel like I'm falling behind.

You got four Vetos and an HOH?

Four Vetos, an HOH, and two Blockbusters.

If you drop, you pretty much secure the final three.

There's no way anyone's sending you home over me.

I'm always worried about, like, what

if things shake out weird?

Well, now, you scared me, bro.

I guess we're up here for another [MUTED] two hours.

My deal is simple.

You throw this HOH to me.

And if I have the opportunity, I'll throw a Veto to you.

I know he wants a Veto on his resume.

But it seems like Vince isn't gonna stop anytime soon.

I could literally be here all night.

But just because I can be doesn't mean I want to be.

Vince, take the deal!

That second three-peat starts now.

That's right.

But hey, I'll throw one to you, if you

want to throw me this one.

Come on, Vinny.

He's, like, moving a lot.

It's probably gonna cost him.

Oh, he's looking wobbly. You sure you don't want--

dude, just end it now, bro.

I was just feeling where the center was.

KEANU: Just end it now.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Let's end this [MUTED] right now and go eat some tacos.

[whispering] Bro, imagine [LAUGHS]--

oop.

All right, well, imagine winning.

Vinny won.

I don't know what happened.

I think I put a little too much pressure,

the sword bent, and the mask just slipped off.

Congratulations, Vince.

You have passed my trial and are the new Head of Household.

Congratulations, Vince.

[CHEERING]

I just won my fourth--

fourth HOH of the season.

And with my fourth HOH, I just guaranteed my spot into the top

four, which means I have a one in four

chance of winning $,.

I'm very happy.

Congrats, Vinny.

I can't lift my arm.

[TENSE MUSIC]

I had no idea how long we were gonna be there.

I just won my fourth Head of Household competition.

The only four-time HOH this season.

There's not even enough left for people

to top what I have accomplished already.

[quietly] Thanks, man.

And what I'm gonna do with this one

is really build up my resume.

I need to make a big move.

With the Blockbuster finally gone,

I just have to make two nominations.

My arms are hurting more than wall comp.

I-- seriously, bro, I'm fresh.

I'm almost a little salty that I like, looked away,

and that's what slipped for two seconds.

Ugh!

But I didn't win Head of Household.

And I'm pretty bummed because that would

have been good for my resume.

But at least I'm good with Vinny.

Morgan's a huge threat to win the whole game,

so I hope he takes her out this week.

Ugh, whatever.

This was not ideal.

I was really hoping I'd do better in this HOH competition,

and if not, have Ashley or Keanu win.

In the words of Jimmy--

JIMMY: That's just how the vegan cookie crumbles.

Well, it was nice being in top five.

Bye, guys.

[QUIRKY BOING SOUNDS]

Once I saw Vinny come out of the room,

I felt a huge weight off my shoulders just lift.

This would be a completely different story if Keanu won.

The path to the finals starting to become a little bit more

clear now.

Please do.

Wow, four HOHs.

That's insane.

[whispering] That's insane.

Nobody's even came close.

Nobody will.

There's only one more HOH.

[whispering] Gagged.

[whispering] Gagged!

Getting Keanu out is at the highest stakes

that it's ever been.

With Keanu gone, Ava's the last on the list.

And then, The Judges can be in the final three.

Rachel and Will, we're gonna make y'all so proud.

[whispering] I'm so happy for him.

[whispering] I know!

I'm agreeing with Morgan because I want

to stay in her good graces.

I mean, she's one of my best friends

here on a personal level.

But I know that Morgan is the true ultimate threat.

If Morgan is in any of those final two chairs,

I don't think anyone can beat her.

[whispering] All I know is there's still a lot of

game left.

Hello?

Well, I made it to top five.

And just like that, I'm on the block.

[whispering] From the same [MUTED] man.

You can't make it up, America.

You really can't.

Poetic.

America--

--l'chaim.

[whispering] Ashley!

[quietly] Yeah, third is not better than second.

Even though I'm in The Judges alliance

and I know I'm probably safe this week,

it still doesn't look good for my relationship with Ava.

But this week isn't over, and we don't know who's

gonna go up for nominations.

There's still a Veto to be played.

So maybe Ava and I can win this thing

and, you know, flip this week around

and get Morgan on the block.

[whispering] I'm not gonna give up.

There's, like, nothing we can do at this point.

[whispering] Well, hey!

Guess what.

[whispering] Maybe we can win the comps.

So Vinny wins Head of Household,

and it's not looking good for Ashley and I.

We just made a final three deal with Keanu.

And I know Morgan isn't bringing us to the end.

So I guess it's time for me to pay

a little lip service to Vinny, and see if there's

anything that I can do.

[whispering] It's really bad.

It's really bad.

[QUIET GIGGLING]

[TENSE MUSIC]

Another long day.

Bro.

It was hard.

No, it was definitely hard.

But I knew when it came down to me and Keanu,

I was like, I'm not--

I can't move.

And to be honest, the scary part

is, like, I think he's probably the first person we

need to get out of this house.

Vinny is many things.

Stupid is not one of them, and neither is loyal to his allies.

So even if there's an inkling of a chance,

maybe Ava Pearl can convince Vinny to put up his number one.

If I don't even try with the way things are looking,

I could probably end up on the block.

What are you putting him next to?

Are you putting him next to a pawn?

You putting him next to--

I don't know yet.

Because I could put him next to Ashley or you.

It's risky.

I don't know.

I don't want to speak for other people.

But I think everybody in the house understands.

You think she's more of a threat than Keanu even?

If you're sitting at the end with Morgan,

people are just gonna say she--

she had all your HOHs.

That's what some people would think.

I think it's no secret that Morgan

has played a really good game.

I, of course, have to consider that if and when

Ava goes to Jury, she's gonna be

having these types of conversations

with the rest of the jurors.

Well, to be frank with you, Vinny,

has getting blood on your hands stopped you in the past?

Yeah.

It's really up to you, bro.

You gotta do what you gotta do.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

[TENSE MUSIC]

Dude.

Oh, I missed. Hold on.

Let me do that again.

There it is.

I'll take a high pitch clap to it.

That was-- that was pretty chill.

Bro.

Damn, dude.

The assignment, you understand it?

Yeah.

Because she has to be put straight up.

General consensus around the house

is that Morgan is a lock to win this game.

So it only makes sense, and it's

in all of our best interests, if she's the one

going to Jury this week.

Morgan and Vince are super close,

but I need him to realize that taking her to the end

is purely a second place move.

This is the move, bro.

If she leaves this week--

Crystal clear.

--you might actually win.

Crystal clear path.

You would not lose her Jury vote for doing that.

But even if you did, you would gain so many more.

It might be a trade off, if anything.

If you don't at least try, then there's

no way that you'll ever recover from the perception

of her running your HOHs.

Yeah.

And she'll say that you were--

even though you weren't loyal to her, she was loyal to you.

And that'll-- that'll seal the [MUTED] deal.

That's true.

It was-- she does what she wants, even on my HOHs.

Morgan's my closest ally.

But it's pretty irritating because Ava

just said this perception.

And now, Keanu is saying the same thing.

I don't know how many other people

are thinking this right now, but it's a little frustrating.

At this point, with the game speeding up anyways,

it's kind of like, rip the Band-Aid.

Dude, you already ripped one of the Band-A*DS off.

Just gotta do it.

Wait, can I still be a dog at the end of your bed?

If you want to, I am more than happy--

Are you sure?

I don't have to.

I always appreciate the company.

Do you believe that your HOH--

you know that you called this?

Isn't that insane?

Today, I crowned you HOH.

Then, you turned around, and you crowned me HOH right back.

Yeah.

I knew it was gonna come down to me and Keanu.

Did he try to throw me under the bus to you?

Yeah.

He was like, you know what you have to do, right?

I was like, what's that?

He wants you to take me out?

He's like, Morgan, straight up.

That's the only way that you get respect from the Jury.

That's the only way to show that you're

not playing Morgan's game.

You're playing your own game.

How?

You've won four HOHs, Vinny!

Also, the most he's won is two in a row.

Yeah.

You've won four in a row. MORGAN: Four in a row!

What else do you have?

It was Veto, Veto, Veto, your HOH, and then my HOH.

That's right.

Congrats, whatever.

I really don't like this narrative that Morgan

is controlling my HOHs.

I know I haven't played the cleanest game.

And I've lied and I've backstabbed people,

but it's "Big Brother."

I've won four HOH competitions, so I do think I have a chance

of beating Morgan in the end.

But it could be a $, gamble.

Four comps in a row.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

The only question I have is, do people in the Jury

respect taking every and any opportunity you can,

or do they respect loyalty?

She's a lock to win the game!

What-- I don't understand how there's even--

There's just so much pressure on the decision

because it's like, one wrong decision

could be the deciding factor.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Hold up.

You're considering not sending her home this week at all?

Think about this from literally anybody else's perspective.

This would be the last person that I haven't burned, I guess.

Send the puppet master home.

If I put you and Ava, she'd be like, oh,

yeah, it's part of the plan. Keep the--

You're gonna-- you're gonna put me on the block?

I'm saying-- yes!

If it was you, Ava--

Now, we're going-- now, we're going backwards, dude.

VINNY: No, I'm saying-- - Now, we're going backwards.

This doesn't make sense to you?

Do you see what I'm saying?

Do you see the perspective?

Dude, you're literally just swapping positions.

All you're doing is showing me that you're

valuing her more than me.

Vinny, what are you doing?

I thought we were good.

This guy just saved me to put me back up again.

This doesn't make any sense.

You're gonna give her another opportunity to say

that you're playing her game?

I don't want that to be the case.

So you're gonna put me up.

And even if [MUTED] this week, she's still--

I'm gonna have that argument now.

I'm gonna have to trust my gut and make

that game-time decision.

Oh.

I've nominated you, Keanu, and you, Ava.

There's only four options.

This just seemed to make the most sense

at this point in the game.

And yeah, I wish everyone luck in Veto tomorrow.

And we'll see how it plays out.

[TENSE MUSIC]

This nomination ceremony is adjourned.

I nominated Keanu and Ava.

And to be honest, it's just time to get rid of Keanu now.

We're coming down to the wire, and he is a huge threat

to win this game.

So I want to build up my resume.

I want to be the one to get him out on my HOH.

And I want to make it clear that this is my game,

and these are my decisions.

Not Morgan's.

Shocking.

Third time nominated by Vinny.

What are you gonna do?

I've made it this far in the game.

I've pulled out some surprise comp wins before.

Just time to do that again.

Ava Pearl's time is now.

Here we go again.

Vinny loves making second place moves.

Dude, stop playing Morgan's game.

It's ironic that the only person you're loyal to

is the person you're gonna lose to in the end.

Thanks for proving to me, yet again, that I'm all alone,

and I have to do it all by myself.

Now, I have to go in this Veto.

Again.
