20x32 - Episode 32

Post by bunniefuu »

Julie: haleigh's been told she's safe, scottie's been told

He's the pawn-- spoiler alert, someone's lying.

Welcome to "big brother"!

[ Cheers and applause ] previously on "big brother":

Scottie won the jury "battle back."

Julie: you are now returning to the "big brother"

House, scottie.

I'm back!

[ Cheers ] and made his triumphant

Return to the game.

[ Buzzer ].

Oh, haleigh.

Oh, let's go!

After tyler helped himself to a slice of power...

Congratulations, tyler.

You are the next head of household.

...he put up two obvious targets.

I've nominated you, haleigh, you, scottie.

Tyler told scottie that he was a pawn.

You're a pawn.

I got you.

I know.

I figured.

But j.c. Made it clear the former juror has to go.

It sucks, I like scottie.

Exactly.

We already all voted him out, and I feel like this is what the

House wants.

Wanting to keep their budding showmance a secret...

I have a crush on you.

...tyler and angela hid their relationship from the rest of

The house.

I swear it is not a showmance.

I swear.

I'm on to you.

With the veto on the line...

[ Buzzer ] ...kaycee was a comp beat emoji.

Let's go!

You have the most emoji control!

Two weeks in a row, veto winner.

Level is in control this week.

Tyler assured haleigh she wasn't the target.

Would you tell me if I was the target yoo yeah, that's why

I haven't told you.

No, you wouldn't.

I have told you you're the target?

No.

Exactly.

But after scottie told haleigh he was the pawn...

I've been told that I'm the pawn.

Who told you that?

Tyler.

...she didn't know who to believe.

And like, why the... Would he tell me that?

I'm glad you told me because I wanted to let you know that

You're good.

At the veto meeting...

I have decided...

Not to use the power of veto.

...the girl and the geek remained on the block.

So my plan for the week is to remain social, remind everybody

That I'm better for their game than haleigh is.

And I'm going to remain cool guy pawn and trust in the plan.

Tonight, will scottie be blindsided and sent back to jury

Or will the house turn on haily and gig the texan.

Plus, b.b. Legend derrick laf sear returns.

Jump off that balcony I'll catch you, you little son of a

b*tch.

Julie: good evening, I'm julie chen.

Welcome to "big brother".

It's day inside the "big brother" house, and it's deja vu

All over again as level is in control of the vote, haleigh is

Back in the nomination chair, and scottie may be making a

Return trip to the jury house.

But with less than three weeks left in the game, everyone's

Fate is unclear, and those left in the house after the upcoming

Eviction will be in desperate need of winning tonight's live

Head of household competition.

So, who will be walking out the front door?

We'll find out before the hour is up.

But first, the not-so-secret showmance has allies questioning

Just where they stand.

This veto meeting is rarks jurnd.

Kaycee did exactly what I thought she was going to do.

That's my girl.

I want haleigh out of here.

But the house wants scottie out.

I just need to make scottie and haleigh both feel good and like

They're the pawn because one of them is going to stay, and I

Need that person to not come after me and feel comfortable

With me moving forward.

I'm still on the block next to haleigh.

I've been told I'm the pawn, which I guess is a silver liege.

But pawns go home.

So I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure I stay

This week.

There's no way I'm getting evicted twice.

I'm still on the block, and scottie told me he's the pawn.

Kaycee told me I'm safe.

And I really don't know what to believe at this point.

Can I use the icy hot?

Are you sore still?

My neck is k*lling me.

I was not being dramatic when I said it.

You want me to rub it in?

Yeah, it hurts here.

Did kaycee tell you about the incident?

What incident?

About what scottie told me?

No upon.

We were just talking on the hammock eok, and he was like, "I

Don't know if I believe it, but tyler told me I was the pawn."

I didn't tell him that.

I never said that.

I had to make it sound like he wasn't going home, and that's

Exactly why I told you can't go to him and say--

I didn't say anything.

Hearing him saying that is not comforting, tyler.

I said maybe I'm a dog getting put down and no one will tell

Me.

Why won't you ever just believe me.

Haleigh, can you please stop asking if you are the target

This week.

You are really not, but if you keep asking, I can probably just

Make you the target.

So just calm down.

I do believe you, but it was just sad at that moment.

I feel bad, too, but it's like, I don't vote.

I know.

I was just letting you know that that occurred.

I'm not freaking out.

Dude, she's not been leaving me alone.

I'm not... Happy about it.

I know she's sketchy as hell.

No, she's just trying to get me to tell her if she's the

Target or not.

Good old scottie might be feeling the level blindside

Heat this week.

I almost feel bad a little bit but it's good for old time's

Sake.

That's why everybody is like so happy that you're back, dude.

Oh, my god.

You guys care about me!

You have no idea.

♪ ♪ They are so concerned.

It's so funny.

So concerned, yeah.

J.c. Definitely asked.

Hey, little girl.

What are you girls doing?

I wanted to come down and eat.

I'm hungry again.

♪ ♪ What's going on between you

And angela?

I literally was walking here, and I hear her like pump, pump,

Pump, like running towards the couch.

She wasn't running.

She was walking in from over there.

I don't care.

If that's what you do, I don't care.

I just want to know.

She % run from that bed to that couch.

I'm telling you, like, you think that I'm, like, that stupid.

You're paranoid, man.

I know you're in the stupid.

Of course I'm not stupid.

Exi just want to know, like, where she stands because he's

Obviously b.f.f.s with you right now.

So I want to-- I want to know, like, what's going on.

We're just talking!

Straight up.

We're from the same place, dude.

So five hours talking, okay, about the same place.

That's okay.

Right now, I'm not believing you.

Like what do you want me-- what do you want to hear?

And we can-- I told you before, I like

Hanging out with her.

We're friend.

We've been working together in the game.

I think he really, really, really wants to put up kaycee

And angela.

Next week?

Tyler is too close to angela for my liking.

Last week, I tried to talk to tyler about going against

Kaycee and angela, and he wasn't having

It.

Now I'm telling him brett will go after them.

I need to get through to tyler somehow.

This is just another tactic.

The best-case scenario for us right now is for brett to win

The h.o.h. So he can go for blood for casey and angela.

He's smarter than that.

I just really need j.c. To stop wanting to take shots at kaycee

And angela because I have a final two with kaycee.

I have a final two with j.c.

And I really don't think angela would ever put me up, so I need

All three of them in this house.

Why isn't it a good idea?

It's stupid.

It's too early, but, like, whatever.

Like I'm not just defending them because they're my friends.

I'm saying that because I genuinely think it's not a good

Idea for me, you, or brett.

I'm like oh, I'm going to go to bed at : tonight.

I got some bad news.

What?

Wait, really?

J.c. Heard you running over there.

Oh!

He said, "I heard her run for the bed over there."

Oh, my god.

I'm so sick of j.c.

You have no idea.

He frustrates me more than anyone.

J.c. Is the gossip queen in this house.

He's just a little diva, and whenever he finds anything,

Like, the smallest hint of something, he just runs with it.

I think that this is j.c.'S strategy partially, but it

Really starts to piss me off after a while.

Do you think j.c.'S plan is to try and catch you and me so he

Can pull brett, like, to himself?

And, like, get brett in his corner and, like, kind of,

Like-- split us up?

Yeah.

Definitely gog try to because he knows he's on the outside of

That.

Yeah.

Do you think brett and j.c.

Would flip?

I don't think so.

It might be crazy, but do you think j.c. Is more threatening

Than haleigh?

With all his little, like, tactics and sneaky...

All right, hold on, back it up a little bit.

Cannot be taking shots at j.c.

Yet.

That is not good for my game whatsoever.

I don't think so.

Just because-- he can't win.

We know what he's doing and he can't win.

Yeah.

This is when it, like, gets really tricky for me, and it

Just sucks, dude.

Oh, no!

Oh!

Dude!

Oh, damn it!

I didn't want to do this in here!

Oh, this blows, man!

Like, I like angela a lot.

And I know j.c. Wants to come for her.

And game-wise, it's way better for me to let j.c. Take a shot

At her, because I can't do it it myself.

I just feel so selfish, but, like, I came here to win, and I

Can't just throw away my whole game to keep her safe.

We've just got to be careful.

I'm just trying to stay, like, two steps ahead, you know.

Uh-huh.

Julie: up next, scottie shares information from

The jury house that could affect the game.

Plus, season winner, derrick levasseur joins us live to talk

All things "big brother."

Then it's the live vote and eviction.

Scottie or haleigh?

Another houseguest joins the jury.

Stay with us.

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Cheers and applause ] welcome back to big brother

The battle back may have given scottie a seond life

For the house but the intel he provided could cost someone

Else their game

I like turtles

You know -- I can't say turtles

Turtles. Say turtles. Turtles

Am I saying it right. No your rs. Say turd. Turd

Turd. Like da get some of this duh

Turd

Turtle.

Yes!

That's perfect.

Turtle.

Turtle.

Turtle!

Turtle!

Turtle.

Turtle.

Turtle.

Just practice it, it will be-- it will feel natural.

I like turtles!

Yes.

Turtle!

So what's your plan here, man?

For the rest of the week?

Yeah.

I mean, I was told I'm the pawn.

So I mean I'm not going to push too much.

Dude, I was genuinely relieved when you walk through

Those doors.

Yeah, of course I'm going to evict scottie this week.

But scottie has information no one else has.

He's been to the jury house.

He knows what they're thinking.

I'm absolutely going to take advantage of the scenario, and

I'm going to pump him for as much information as possible.

Feed me.

I am driven by big data.

I'm in a spot right now where I am so manyo.

I was starting to building buildsome bonds with some

People.

And it's just like, I more and more am getting left out.

From what I heard, from, like, bayleigh and rockstar, was

That you're the one that angela wanted to keep here as a shield.

As a shield.

As a shield, yes.

They're not actually working with me but I am a shield?

Yes.

Rockstar is not happy with your d.m.

She thinks you're a slimed bag for it.

We butted head all season.

But she hates angela's even more.

Really?

What was it?

Something like, "rockstar, you always say I'm an entitled

Girl who always gets what she wants.

I guess you're right because I wanted you gone."

Rockstar hated it.

I'm in an alliance with angela, but we're at a point in

The game that every single eviction has a ripple effect of

What will happen in the upcoming weeks.

Bayleigh's super-pissed at angela.

Rockstar is super pissed at angela.

Fess sesuper pissed at angela.

Angela actually sent two of those three people to jury.

The only other person that I think they would rather see

Evicted than brett would be angela.

So if I hand them on a silver platter exactly what they want,

Just maybe I might be able to gain their jury votes.

I just need a solid play to move forward and I need to

Figure out how I'm going to do it.

I mean, they're not even trying at this point to hide it.

I don't know what to do, man.

This is insane.

I don't know, dude.

I just feel like every time I'm, like -- like I go to go hang out

With tyler and, like, she's there, I feel like I'm, like,

Intruding.

And she thinks no one is noticing.

I'm like...

Right.

It just shows-- it, like, shows the cards.

You know what I mean?

I know.

It makes me nervous because, dude, I'm telling you.

She has two people in her pocket.

That's why it would have to be a backdoor.

Tyler would use the veto on her.

Kaycee would use the veto on her.

It's almost better to nominate sam and haleigh, and then do a

Backdoor.

Right now, my loyalty is to level .

But j.c.'S got the paranoia going already.

I want to just feed it as much as possible so that if he does

Get the opportunity, j.c. Takes the stab.

I don't.

I get no blood on my hands.

I'm covering all angles.

It's a gamble.

It's a gamble.

This whole game say gamble.

Exactly.

Every move you make is a gamble.

Julie: coming up, will scottie be evicted for a second

Time or will haleigh be reuniting with fessy in the jury

House?

Up next, the live vote and eviction.

But first I sit down one on one with season winner derrick

Levasseur.

We'll get his take on season when we return.

Stay with us.

[ Cheers and applause ] [ cheers and applause ]

Julie: welcome back to "big brother."

Please welcome season winner, derrick levasseur!

[ Cheers and applause ] you really played a brilliant

Game in season so we want to pick your game.

Okay.

Julie: about this season.

You've been watching all the shows, all the feeds.

What has surprised you the most?

Well, first off, this has been a great season.

Everyone came in here playing hard and it started with two big

Alliances.

They both started going after right at the start.

And what really surprised me the most was how level was able to

Work together both competitively and strategically.

Usually when you have a big alliance form that early in the

Game you will have personality conflicts and that will create

Accidents within the group.

But so far they've been able to avoid that, and scialgly,

They've dominated the game.

Julie: what do you attribute that to, just good

Chemistry, luck?

"Big brother," some of it is just luck.

They had good chemistry.

That happened with me and code, you get a good vibe with one

Another.

Julie: don't they have to turn on each other at some

Point?

It's coming but they have to wait for the right moment.

There are other people left, do what you have to do.

Julie: if you had to pick one houseguest right now, who is

Sitting pretty right now?

I can't do that.

I want to run that down.

That's a bigger question.

Right now we have a lot of houseguests who are still

Playing and they could all make an argument why they should win

This game.

You have level members.

They all have contributed to the success.

Tyler has a great social game, winning a lot of comps, sitting

At the forefront.

Angela won some comps.

And then brett playing the double agent, and casey also

Strategically playing a really good game and socially getting

Along with everyone, plus she won that hacker comp that let

Everyone stay in the game.

That's only half the house.

You have haleigh who is winning comps as well and doing what she

Has to do, and integrating herself a little bit.

With fessy gone, maybe she picks it up.

J.c. Has never been on the block and he's also using the power of

Paranoia to target the people he wants.

You have scottie, he made some mistakes.

So at this point, it's anybody's game.

Julie: really?

I really do believe that.

Julie: I don't think we have ever been at this point in

The game where you could have said that, but you make a good

Cause for everybody.

That's why it's such a great season.

You don't know for sure, this person has got it.

There are some variables.

Julie: something that was very rare in your season was you

And cody picked each other to be a final two, and you stuck to

It, and you made it to the final two.

Let's talk about tyler.

He's made four different final two deals.

Yeah.

Julie: all right, let's go through the list.

He's made one with sam.

He's made one with j.c.

He's made one with kaycee.

And he's made one with brett.

Yeah, and he's kind of tight with angela, too.

Julie: is it an unsaid final two?

I don't know.

What do you think of that game play?

You know, I think if he's able to get to the end, he's to

Have some explaining to do, obviously, but I hope the jury

Remembers that when they were in there, they were also making

Some side deals as well.

You know, everyone does it.

So I hope they give him a pass on that one but I think this

Question brings up a bigger point and that is how critical

Jury management is to winning this game.

It's important.

It's not only about getting to the end.

It's how you get there.

And whoever sits in the final two, they're going to have to

Justify those action, explaining explain why they broke those

Promises and depending on how they answer it could decide

Whether they winlet game or not.

Julie: if you're tyler and-- if you're tyler and you

Get to pick who you bring, who do you pick?

You know, I've heard that he's leaning towards taking

Kaycee, and personally, I don't think that's a good decision.

I do believe we're going to have an emotional jury this year.

And I would lean towards angela, based on what we're seeing so

Far.

And think about kaycee.

Nobody has really said anything bad about her up to this point.

And we talked about final twos.

Kaycee hasn't had to have made as many promises as tyler.

So if tyler is sitting next to angela, brett, j.c. Or sam, I

Think he's built a strong enough resume to win.

But if he's sitting next to casey and she pulls out a couple

More comp wins, they could end up giving her a half a million

Dollars.

Dollars.

Julie: you talk about the jury comment.

How critical are the goodbye messages?

It's not only what you say.

It's how you make them feel.

When they leave that house you don't want them feeling like you

Burned them.

So whatever you have to say to make them feel better about it

While they're stiewg in the jury house, that's what you have to

Do.

Ther retaliation is the final night.

Julie: they always vote with emotion at the end of the

Day.

Am I right?

There's no way around it.

Derrick levasseur, season winner.

Thank you.

Up next, either scottie or haleigh is headed to the jury

House.

The live vote and eviction, next.

Stay with us.

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Cheers and applause ] [ cheers and applause ]

Julie: welcome back to "big brother."

It's now time for the live vote and eviction.

Scottie or haleigh?

Who will become the next member of the jury?

Let's head to the living room and find out.

Hello, houseguests.

Hey, julie.

Julie: well, everyone, it's now time for the live vote

And eviction.

Scottie, haleigh, in just moments, your housemates will

Cast their votes to evict live.

But before they do, you each have a final chance to sway

Their votes with one brief statement.

Scottie, you're first.

Okay, all right.

Julie, first of all, I still don't know if we're hanging out

Again tonight.

[ No audio ] I can't make any plans.

You know the right move and the smart move and I hope you make

It, and if you don't, I hope you suck it.

Except for tyler.

That was it?

That was your arm?

Here gu.

Julie: well, that's an original speech.

Thank you.

Julie: thank you, scottie.

Oh!

Julie: haleigh, you're up.

I don't know how you follow that.

But you're up.

I don't know, either.

Julie, first of all, are you capt vaight.

Second of all, shout-out to the friends and family.

My little kids, I love you guys.

Houseguests, to evict or not to evict?

That is the question.

To keep me here in this warm home filled with the people they

Love or to cast me out in the freezing cold-- no food, no

Shelter.

The choice is yours.

In all honesty, guys, I stood here last week and told you all

In explicit detail how I felt so I don't feel the need to do it

Again.

What I will say is I love you all now just like I loved you

Then.

I hope you want to keep me.

Regardless of whatever happened tonight, I'm sticking with what

I said.

God bless.

Julie: thank you, haleigh.

I see shakespeare has rubbed off on you.

Julie: thank you both.

It's now time for the live voting to begin.

Tyler, as head of household, you are not allowed to vote, neither

Are the two nominees.

One at a time, the rest of you will enter the diary room and

Cast your vote to evict.

Brett you're up first.

Please go to the diary room.

Brett got close with scottie this week to get jury intel, but

Does he still need him in the game?

Hi, brett.

Hey, julie.

Julie: please cast your vote to evict.

I vote to evict scottie.

Julie: thank you.

Happy birthday papa doc.

Julie: kaycee told haleigh she would be safe tonight, but

Was she telling the truth?

Hi, kaycee.

Hey, julie.

Julie: please cast your vote to evict.

I vote to evict scottie.

Julie: thank you.

Cool.

Thank you.

Julie: sam was the sole vote to evict haleigh last week.

But has she changed her mind about her rival?

Hi, sam.

Hi, julie.

Julie: please cast your vote to evict.

I vote to evict scottie.

Julie: thank you.

Thank you.

Julie: it's official, with three votes to evict scottie,

Scottie will leave the house tonight, but let's see how the

Remaining two votes fall.

Hi, angela.

Hey, julie.

Julie: please cast your vote to evict.

I vote to evict scottie.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Julie: j.c. Worked hard to evict scottie the last time he

Was on the block, and he's been determined to send him back to

The jury.

Hi, j.c.

Hi!

Julie: please cast your vote to evict.

I vote to evict scottie.

Julie: thank you.

Hello to l.a.!

Wooo!

[ Laughter ] julie: all of the votes are

In.

Let's return to the living room and give the news to the

Houseguests.

Houseguests, the votes are in.

When I reveal the vote, the evicted houseguest will have

Just a few moments to say goodbye, gather his or her

Belongings, and walk out the front door.

By a unanimous vote of -, scottie, you are evicted from

The "big brother" house.

I get a hug?

Peace out girl scouts.

-, Two in a row!

[ Cheers and applause ] sorry, I didn't mean to --

That's all right.

That was nuts.

Wait, what happened?

I don't understand.

I don't either.

I'm confused.

I'm confused.

What were you surprised about?

I don't know.

I don't even know what he said.

I couldn't believe his vocabulary.

Yeah.

Goodbye, scottie, for a second time.

Unanimous.

Twice in a row.

Mr. Unanimous.

He's the only one who was voted out twice.

Goodness.

We got an h.o.h. Here.

Come on, guys.

Show some love.

Julie: you were evicted by unanimous vote, -.

Again.

Julie: why you, not haleigh?

Why am I not haleigh?

Julie: no, why did they evict you?

Why did they choose to keep her and not you?

Why do you think?

Because I'm unpredictable, and they just don't know what to

Do with me.

That's really-- I think that's the reason.

They could also had, okay, whoever the buyback person

Swe'll get rid of.

But they don't where high head is at.

Julie: because are you unpredictable and you're saying

That's why you are here why didn't you try to behave more

Predictable and consistent if that's what you think cost you

Your game?

I tried so hard.

Like, i, like, was so tame this entire thing.

There were times I would have loved to have popped off.

There were times I would have loved to have run around.

And I was like, no, even keel.

And that got me nowhere.

Julie: so you decided to shake things up?

No, that was me still trying to like-- I had a feeling they

Were going to get rid of me, though?

Julie: why?

Because they're not very good liars.

Julie: they should be.

It's "big brother."

Last week, after you won "battle back" after you went back in, I

Asked what your strategy was, if you were going to change it up?

You said you were going to work with trial, you were not sure.

Was that your strategy when you went back in?

Initially would have liked to have gone with fess again, but

He was gone.

So tyler was my next best option.

One, I thought I had a connection with him.

Obviously, I was wrong, and I felt like he was in with enough

Different groups to where if I got in with him I would be safe.

Julie: okay...

But people-- he's kind of a coward.

Julie: say that again.

He's kind of a coward.

Julie: why?

Whatever the house wants is what he does.

Julie: is that being a coward or is that playing good

Game?

No, it's being a coward.

It's being a coward.

[ Laughter ].

Julie: did you make moves this week to try and really get

In good with him?

Like what, did do you to try to get in good with tyler this

Week?

I was up in that h.o.h. Room, like, throwing back like no

One'sing about business.

We made jokes.

I told him so much info.

I was up there for, like, a solid hour and a half.

I guess, like, some people, like, live up there.

But I can't sit up there and suck up like that.

That's just not me.

Julie: but we also saw you reconnect with haleigh-- a

Little bit.

If you had to choose who to be loyal to and play this game

With, between haily and tyler, who would it have been?

Oh, my gosh.

Wait, before?

Julie: no, this past week.

Like going in or now coming out?

Julie: either.

[ Laughter ].

Going in, tyler would have been better because he had

Numbers to back him up, I prefer.

But I prefer haleigh to tyler if that's the question.

Julie: you prefer her, but push came to shove, you would

Have been true to...

I probably would have been with tyler because he had the

Numbers behind him.

Julie: that's playing the game then.

I also would have put him up, though, if I had won.

Julie: okay, you are unpredictable.

Let's watch your goodbye messages, shall we?

They better have had fun this time.

Last time they were boring.

Scott, edward, you are one of the most creative, intelligent,

Extraordinary people that I have ever met.

I love you and keep smiling because I think everything you

Did in here was awesome.

Scoat, man, I know we joke around a lot about not really

Knowing what's going on, but the truth is, I've kind of known

About what's going on a lot of the time.

I knew you were going to go home this week because you're the

Best social player in here, and people need you out.

I got the power app week two, had it for two months and never

Had to use it.

Tell your friends.

Love you, scottie.

Scoat, I really like you as a friend, and we clicked a lot

Here in the house.

But now for my game, I don't think you were that good.

I'm voting you out because we do every single week what the

H.o.h. Wants, and that's what I'm doing this time too,.

Scoat, I tried to rally those votes for you, man, but tyler

Got to them first.

There was nothing I could do, so I had to protect my own game

Here.

Take care of yourself.

Thank you!

Julie: final thoughts?

Those were mostly boring again.

But, like, that's -- tyler.

The tyler thing doesn't really surprise me.

Julie: what the power app?

The power app doesn't really surprise me, and him knowing

Everything doesn't surprise me.

Week two with swaggy and kaitlyn, I knew he knew swaggy

Was going up and I never confessed he.

When is why I thought he knew stuff.

Julie: are you going to go back and tell the jurors?

No.

Julie: I know he wants you to.

He planted that.

I'm not telling them nothing.

Julie: we'll see you back here wednesday september for

The finale when a winner is crowned.

Sweet, thank you.

Julie: and you get to cast your vote.

There's not another "battle back?"

Julie: sor rear, you're staying in jury until finale

Night.

Sorry, nice try.

It's time to crown the a new h.o.h.

Who will rise to power at this crucial point in the game?

I'm so-- but what did we say in the

Second half?

I was just running like this.

I'm like... Just jogging.

Oh, my god.

You nailed it.

You hit it.

You sunk it beforehand, but he sprinted and it was so close.

I had no idea.

One second, one second.

Year, one second.

He actually had his third one this far away and it dropped,

And you started, like, going down the middle.
