NARRATOR: Previously on "Big Brother ," the house

united to get James out.

If you guys have hopes of winning this game one day,

you got to get out of the way.

We got to get him out.

NARRATOR: But after winning the power of veto,

James removed himself from the block--

I'm using this to save myself.

NARRATOR: --leaving his girlfriend, Sarah, vulnerable.

By a vote of six to one, Sarah,

you have been evicted from the "Big Brother" house.

NARRATOR: Everyone anxiously awaited the return

of an evicted houseguest.

[screaming]

In a battle of endurance, both sides focused on a common goal.

No manner what, James will go home.

It seemed, all in all, everyone

was pretty determined to make it to the end,

we had to make sure that James didn't get it.

NARRATOR: But in a shocking turn,

James took himself out of the game--

That made me realize something.

Wow.

Wow.

NARRATOR: --leaving the two sides in a battle

for ultimate control.

The final three for Jennifer, Kaysar and me.

NARRATOR: Finally, Jen made a promise to Kaysar.

We're back-dooring James.

Swear on your life?

Swear on my life.

Who's going on?

Maggie and somebody.

Would that be someone from your team?

My group will understand completely.

NARRATOR: --and became the new head of household.

[inaudible] I don't want to let go.

NARRATOR: At nominations, Jen went back on her word.

I've chosen to nominate Rachel and Janelle for eviction.

I couldn't put people that I think

of as my family in this house in the line of fire.

NARRATOR: Who will win the power of veto,

and will the veto be used to put James on the block?

Find out tonight on "Big Brother ."

[music playing]

Obviously, I have chosen to nominate Rachel

and Janelle for eviction.

Kaysar and I have had a little understanding.

I know he's very upset with me right now,

and I hope you understand that I'm giving you what you want,

but I couldn't put people that I think

of as my family in this house in the line of fire.

That's it.

Nomination ceremony is adjourned.

Jen is the biggest b*tch of the house

and the biggest liar of the house.

She's deceived everyone.

Jennifer swore on her life.

I mean, her credibility just went

down the tubes, in my opinion.

You guys OK?

I didn't put up two pawns from my group

like Kaysar wanted me, to because I

don't trust his group for me to put up pawns from my own group.

Jennifer has lied straight to my face

and went back on her word a mere few hours

after she made a promise.

Surprise, surprise, because she's liked me since day one.

I know what it's all about, Jenny, don't worry.

No hard feelings, James.

I knew I was being back-doored.

It's just dirty, 'cause it takes all the competition out of it.

Back-dooring someone is when you nominate two people you don't

expect to evict, so you basically loaded the veto

competition with six players who have a certain goal when

the person that you don't want to compete for the veto to save

himself, such as myself, has done it

for four weeks in a row, you then

nominate him at the veto ceremony

and he can't defend himself.

wh*re.

I know, Janie.

Can you believe her?

She swore on her life that she wouldn't do that.

I know that.

So Jen, I'll have your word?

Swear on my life.

I had a feeling she was going to screw me over.

She screwed us both over.

She really-- us.

I knew it.

I told you.

To keep her people safe.

We get the veto.

Everything's on.

That's the plan, that's what it is.

She doesn't want to keep doing this game.

Come on.

Howie's trying to make us look at the big picture,

that James could be the one leaving

and you guys are just pawns, but it's easy for him

to say that when me and Rachel are on the block.

I heard.

No.

The way they did it is not honest.

If anything they should have done one of each of us.

No kidding.

That's OK.

Just relax.

Just relax, brother. That's the plan.

That's what they want to do.

Could Rachel and Janelle end up staying on the block?

Of course.

I refuse to believe that's what's going to happen.

I did not come back to see my team dismantled

in front of my very own eyes.

Don't get mad yet.

Don't give them a reason to change their mind.

Don't give them a reason for that yet.

Don't give them a reason.

OK.

We're getting upset about nothing right now.

We got to focus, win a veto tomorrow.

If we do, then we'll deal with their cards from there.

We fumbled the football, let's pick it up, and, you know,

make a play here and there.

No one's out the door yet.

No one's running up the score on us yet.

We're still in complete control.

Let's not lose that control.

Their plan is exactly what we planned on.

Whether they lied to us, whatever.

The plan is what we were going to do.

Let's work with what we can control right now.

We'll win a veto and things will be fine, I promise.

He's the one going back on the block.

I don't care what Ivette says.

Yeah.

Relax.

James has four days to rally for himself.

He can start to apologize.

He can make promises.

He can start looking like a good person.

I wanted a fighting chance, Jen.

I know, I know, but I feel you had

a fighting chance for weeks, and you kicked our asses.

I would not have gotten HOH if I hadn't

at least kept half my deal.

He told me word for word, he wanted to backdoor James,

and I said I will do what you want if you give me HOH.

I'm sorry.

I don't blame Jen at all.

She had to do what she had to do Kaysar's

to blame for this plan.

Unfortunately, America, you gave Kaysar a second chance

and I'm going to have to send him back to you again.

Ivette's loyalty right now, it probably cuts /.

Her loyalty is to her team first and to me, a close second.

Regardless of whatever's happened between us, even when

I thought she went behind my back,

I realize that was my mistake.

Ivette's been good to me.

I don't want to let them see me cry, so--

If I said I wasn't upset about being nominated,

I would be lying, mostly because there were promises made,

and those promises were broken.

I'm upset, but I'm not going to let them see that,

because emotion is a weakness.

Don't worry.

We'll be fine.

Can you give me two seconds so I can

do my after-nomination speech?

OK, yeah.

I'll finish.

Now how this works is we sit down--

You do all the talking?

I talk, and there's questions and answers at the end.

I really respect what you did.

You made a deal with Kaysar for HOH--

that's part of the game--

but by letting me know and letting everyone

know that you're giving Kaysar what he wants,

I at least understand what's coming.

I'm completely honest in this game.

I know.

That's one of the things that I realized last night.

Like I don't know if I got to tell you I let go of my button.

I was shocked.

I'm sitting there and I watched Ivette,

I watched her break down and I watched her cry,

because it was for--

not the game, but it was for something so much more.

It was about doing it for my girlfriend for our anniversary

and for my mom for her birthday.

When I saw that, I realized that me

hanging out here for revenge--

well, also there was--

I don't know if you saw me look across and ask Rachel.

I asked Rachel, am I safe.

She looks back at me and she's like, am I safe,

like this devilish face.

Here I am, out here for hours to get revenge, willing to do

whatever it takes to get revenge on the people

that did this to me, and I was like,

that's not how I want to be.

I don't want to be a Rachel.

I don't want to be a Howie.

I don't want to be a Kaysar.

I don't want to be a Janelle.

I would not have a girlfriend like Sarah or friends

like I have--

do not tell anyone--

Don't you worry about it.

--being like them.

Me showing Ivette's team that there were more important

things to me than the game, like Sarah,

I think they understand that I'm not

the bad person that the other side has made me out to be.

Now they have to go to where they

don't even give me a fighting chance

because they're scared of me.

They're really scared of me.

That's why they make up the lies.

That's what they said--

and like I said to you guys, next time you guys

hear something, I want you to step back

and I want you to think about the person's motives

as opposed to what they're telling you.

James thinks the backdoor plan isn't fair because it doesn't

give them a fair chance this week,

but he's had plenty of chance in this entire game

to make up for this one week.

I do want to be here.

I think that if I stay I would be a very strong ally,

you know?

But if that's what you guys choose

and that's where the games play, so--

Noted.

Jenny, can I talk to you?

Are you ready?

I've been out for a week.

I've gotten a little rusty.

I wanted to come back and really outdo myself.

If I was back, obviously, America had chosen me,

and I didn't want to let them down.

But I'm out of the loop.

I think I made a bad decision by stepping down and allowing

Jennifer to take HOH.

Obviously I'm a little frustrated.

I understand.

I feel as though after hours of repetitive discussion

and trying to come to a deal, and then, obviously,

that didn't happen.

Kaysar was understandably upset, because he, I think,

thought for sure I was going to put up Maggie,

because that's what I told him I was going to do.

Who's going up?

Maggie and somebody.

That'd be someone from your team?

My group will understand completely.

The problem with that is you weren't here last week,

and we all were in here when Howie was HOH.

It was Janelle, Howie, Rachel, and my group,

we put a word down that we're going to get James out,

first and foremost, and if by some stupid-a*s miracle,

he gets that damn power of veto again, which happened,

we're definitely getting out Sarah.

Let's agree to it now.

I don't want him--

whether he's on your side, my side, or the middle,

he's dangerous.

We got to get him out of the way.

Everyone knows that.

So anyone can go up as a pawn and it doesn't really matter.

And then as soon as that happened and Ivette volunteered

to go up as a pawn--

You're not in any harm's way.

I'll go up there.

Rachel, Janelle, and Howie were trying to get April

and I vote to get off Ivette.

Because right now, Jennifer, you, and people in this room

are the only people that know about this.

Oh, yeah, I trust you completely,

but how can I trust the rest of your group?

I believe Jen's intentions, some of which

may be fabricated.

She was trying to cover up something.

It was obvious.

Something doesn't seem right.

I didn't want anyone swaying my decision.

But you understand how upset I would be after--

I know, and I--

--hours of torment in that thing.

--took that into consideration.

And I looked you straight in the eye.

The reason I didn't approach Kaysar about my change of plans

before the ceremony was because I didn't

want my decision swayed at all.

And I knew Kaysar was going to freak out and get paranoid

and try to cut deals left and right

and say whatever he could to change my mind.

I'm still doing what you want.

So that's why I did it.

James knows he's gone.

I don't know what your intentions are,

but what can we do now?

If all goes well, we win that power of veto, James goes up,

we seal his fate, and we watch him walk out that door.

Then, that's when the real w*r starts.

Howie, where you going?

The jacuzzi?

Where's your Speedo?

That does not fit me.

Go in the bathroom, put it on, and just open the door.

We just want to see it on you.

We just want to see it on you.

Last week Howie got HOH and he got a Speedo.

[screaming]

It's too cold for a Speedo, dumbass.

I'll catch pneumonia.

Ivette and Beau talked me into trying on my Speedo.

I broke down.

I faulted, I failed, I broke under the pressure.

Here.

Go into the shower.

Go in there.

Put it-- pack it in there really well.

Oh boy, I can't wait.

You are nuts.

Howie, come on.

Howie felt weird.

[laughter]

Crazy, man.

Fix yourself right here.

Go ahead, fix it.

Ew!

I had to adjust Howie's bathing suit for him,

because Howie just doesn't know how to put things on correctly.

It looks like you have a butt and everything.

A great a*s.

He had a round butt, it was all-- his package was in place.

It looks nice.

It looks good on you.

You know what, I hadn't put on a Speedo in a long time.

I put it on and all the parts in essential areas

were accounted for.

But, I mean, it's awkward.

He loves his body.

Let's go in the hot tub, Howie.

Oh, your butt is hot, Howie.

Howie looked as good as you can in a Speedo.

[cheering]

Nice.

Turn around, Howie.

That looks so good on you.

How can you not feel comfortable in that?

[inaudible]

Hey, tomorrow you're tanning.

How can you not feel comfortable?

[laughter]

I meant to do that.

That was hilarious.

Happy birthday, Maggie.

Thank you.

Happy birthday to you, sir.

It's Maggie's birthday today, and it's my birthday this week

as well.

It's hard to celebrate birthday away

from your friends and family.

Nothing.

[gasping]

Happy birthday!

Kaysar and I got a surprise birthday when we came inside.

The whole room was decorated for us.

We each got our own cake, which was neat.

One, two, three.

[applause]

There was this huge card.

My parents and my sisters had all write

something very nice inside.

There was a picture of a castle, and it said

about me being King Kaysar.

It had a little handprint of my little nephew.

And it was very sweet of them.

I very much enjoyed it.

So cute, Kaysar.

I love it.

I love it.

Aww.

I don't think anyone realizes how important a card is.

I don't think I'll ever put this down again.

It says happy birthday Maggie, and it's

got a picture of me and David, and it just says

some really, really nice thing.

OK, well, let's open presents, guys.

[screaming]

What is it?

Oh my god.

Holy--

Oh my god.

What is it?

It's a DVD player, video game player, movies, music, and--

Shut up.

I got this really cool electronic thing.

I think everyone at home is going to be laughing

at me because they're going to know

that it's so not my personality type, but I absolutely love it.

Oh my god, a digital music player.

Are you serious?

gigabytes.

That's nice.

[applause]

I'd like to thank "Big Brother" and K-Mart

for making this all possible.

Happy birthday.

What's going on?

What has James told you about what

he feels his position is now?

I think he feels really bad about the way he's played

and the decisions that he's made in the game.

That's my view.

James and I have a bond because we've always

respected each other and always told each other the truth,

and my heart tells me that James has had a change of heart

and he wants to play different.

Has he been made out to look very untrustworthy,

and has he had to because he's been a target

for three weeks already.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

It's very easy for everybody to find a common villain,

so everybody's safe.

But I think that he did stuff to make himself out that way.

James has played dirty.

James has lied.

But in this game, it's so tempting.

Can you really hold him accountable for playing

the game the evil way?

Not really.

I just feel like the one chance that they got to vote off

one of us and team back up with James,

they took it up in two seconds.

What are your guys thoughts?

In two seconds, they completely

forgot about our plan.

All of them have proven that they

would back out on their word.

James is going to be gone sooner or later.

So why not do it right now?

He's a tough competitor.

His opportunity to do it now.

And at least we know where they stand and they're

right in front of our face, where James,

we don't know if he's coming from behind or the front.

I'm just wondering, would it benefit us to kind of keep him,

and then it would be us five?

James, he's a floater.

A little singled-out floater.

So right now we're like five to four.

If everybody believed in James, then we'd be six to four,

we get rid of one of them, then we'd be six to three.

What does your gut instinct tell you, April?

I feel very, very bad for James.

And I mean, the deal is, if he stayed,

he would have to swear and promise a lot of things,

and his promises aren't good.

The one person we didn't want in the house was James.

We're never going to trust James fully again, but maybe

if we can use him to get votes.

He's just so untrustworthy, but, you know,

unfortunately, right now it's a numbers game,

and number-wise we could use him.

James is at a point where we can grab him

and use him to our advantage.

James can be a bonus for us, so why

not take him in and use him?

What I want to say is I just want to make sure

that the decision that we all just had to make

is just the real wise one.

Everyone gather around, it's time

to choose the other players for the veto competition.

[cheering]

Oh boy.

The rest of the house was trying to win the power of veto

to use it on one of the nominees so James can be nominated.

[interposing voices]

Come on, Howie.

What's going on?

Are we doing anything today?

We were a little concerned with what Jennifer was going

to do, because even though the entire house comes together

and says they want James evicted,

there's always that slightest possibility that they're

not telling you the truth.

Nominees, please join me up here.

[applause]

Only six will participate in the competition.

Those six are the head of household,

the two nominees, and three people of our choosing.

As head of household, I will pick first, and I choose--

We were hoping that the team wasn't going

to pull a fast one on us and pick

James and cause a lot of havoc.

April.

[applause]

I picked April to compete with me

in the power of veto competition simply

because, duh, she's my partner.

Who would you like to choose?

I choose Howie.

I chose Howie, and ideally I would want him to win the veto

so he could veto me off the nomination block

and be safe himself from nomination.

Janie, choose second, who do you choose?

Kaysar.

[applause]

I picked Kaysar because I know that he would try and win it

and I know that he would use it on me.

[cheering]

I was really relieved that James was not

picked to play in the veto competition,

because that means he's not going to have a chance to save

himself from nomination.

b*tches, man, won't even let me go out on my own.

I have to get back-doored.

That's just the lowest way in the world to take somebody out.

When we walked outside, what we

saw was a giant round table with different levels

and what looked like two giant chairs.

OK, houseguests.

"Big Brother" has been watching us play coaster

toss in the living room all summer,

and now it's time to coast for the most

to win the power of veto.

I'm thinking, OK, coasters.

Right now I am the coaster champion in this house.

We needed the veto to get someone off the block

to hopefully put James up.

There's a large table that has five rings, each

representing a week someone was evicted

from the "Big Brother" house.

There's also five oversized coasters adorned with the faces

of five evicted houseguests.

The object is to land an evicted houseguest coaster on the week

that they were evicted.

If you get the right coaster on the right week,

you'll win that amount of points.

We find out that we're supposed to toss these coasters

onto this platform, which we've, ironically enough,

been doing since we came here.

If no one scores any points, there will

not be a winner to this veto.

Everyone already, by this point in the house,

knows the deal that I made with Kaysar

in the HOH competition this week,

and it was back-door James.

So somebody needs to get the power of veto

to get someone off the block in order to put James

up there to back-door him.

You will throw from the green chair

and the leader will sit in the orange chair.

Whoever gets the most points will win the power of veto.

I'm such a competitor and I love competition,

and it's miserable when you don't have any control

over your own destiny.

It's a crappy realization that I'm dealing with.

All right, April, will you please step

and begin the coaster toss.

There was different layers to the circle.

Each step of the week got smaller and smaller,

the circle did.

So it's going to be harder and harder and further away

for you to throw the coaster.

[cheering]

April stepped up to the plate.

She tossed the first one and right away she got one point.

One point, that's all we needed.

If no one got a single point, then no one

will win the veto, in which case, James stays in the game

and we lose one of our teammates.

[buzzer]

I go for week two with Michael's and I

hit week one again.

And then I go for week three, which would be Eric.

[cheering]

I hit Eric, so would give me four points at that time,

and then I did miss week four and week five.

So I got a total of four points for my game.

[applause]

I didn't really care how well I did as long

as I'd scored something, because it didn't

really matter who got it.

Rachel, will you please come compete?

Out of the players today competing for the veto,

I thought that Howie and I were the best coaster

players in the house, so I thought

we definitely had an advantage.

Oh!

Rachel got one point.

[applause]

[cheering]

Go for a week four.

[buzzer]

Let's go for week five.

[buzzer]

Nice shot, Ray-Ray.

Rachel, six points.

That puts you in the lead.

Kaysar, will you please come up to compete

for the power of veto?

So I started to play and I got the first one.

I got the second one.

[buzzer]

[buzzer]

Oh, oh.

Kaysar got three points.

Rachel, you're still in the lead.

If I would have got my coaster on the five point level,

I would have been in the lead.

Jen-Jen, will you come compete for the power of veto?

All right.

That first one, I got really confident right away.

[buzzer]

This is harder than it looks, but it didn't help.

Maybe I got too confident.

[buzzer]

Jen got one stupid point, so Rachel is still ahead.

I'm probably the only one in the house that

hasn't played the coasters game, just because I

don't really find it--

it looks really boring to me.

[buzzer]

[ding]

[ding]

I was a little nervous.

Janelle had five points.

[buzzer]

Oh, jeez, that was a loud one.

Janelle gets five points.

She would have taken herself if she had beat me,

and I would have expected her to so I was

kind of glad she didn't get it.

Sorry Janie.

I am the outstanding, outgoing coaster true champion

inside the house, so--

Let's you are outside the house.

Are you sure she's not coming back?

Ashlea, I miss you.

I got up there and felt like I was back in the living room

playing coasters.

Week one, one point.

[buzzer]

[ding]

[buzzer]

Howie, you got a total of four points.

Unfortunately, that's not enough to beat Rachel,

so Rachel is the veto winner with six points.

[applause]

So Rachel, you win the power of veto.

[applause]

I'm going off the block now, thank god.

I am % sure I'm not being evicted.

Right now, I mean, the pieces are lined

up or James to go out the door.

I just-- I can't go out like this.

I didn't think it would happen.

Even Custer had a last stand.

I've had a good time so we'll see.

I mean, obviously it's not over until I walk out the door,

but I think it's a pretty good option.

Because the other team, obviously, this is

their golden moment, you know?

Yeah.

To be able to get rid of me.

Most likely, that's what's going to happen.

Common sense makes me think that I'm going up.

Everybody wants me out of here, with the exception of Ivette.

If all six people standing in line

had been struck by lightning, I'm assuming I might

have gotten away with this one.

Rachel pull herself off, I'll go on.

Who the hell knows who's going up?

[laughter]

[inaudible] that, but who knows in this house?

Should we get rid of Kaysar?

He's the double-headed snake.

Any of us five want to at least have

some opportunity of staying in this game,

Kaysar has got to go.

James is at a vulnerable point.

He's at a weak point.

We can grab him and use him to our advantage.

It's so dangerous to keep Kaysar in this game.

That brought up a great point.

OK, Rachel is going to take herself off,

Janelle is not going home this week.

What about putting up Kaysar?

We can't do things that are nice any more in this game.

I do have a problem with giving your word

and going back on it.

Last week, eight of us, everyone except for James and Sarah,

met in the HOH room, and we made a promise, no matter

what, James will go home.

But I need to stop pushing you gave

your word, you gave your word, because no one

else is playing that way.

But I feel so bad if we were to do that,

'cause he just got back from America's choice, and now here

he is, gone the first week.

- Exactly. - Yeah.

This is our game.

Way to piss off America, Maggie.

Damn you, America.

I had Kaysar evicted and he still came back.

I have no idea which is worse to me right now, someone

that we keep trying to get rid of

and he won't go away, or someone we actually, physically removed

from this house and was given right back to us

with a little bow on him?

I have a headache.

Do you want us to leave?

You can come right back.

I have-- Go quick.

I listened to some of the stuff, to hear what they have to say,

I just don't want them to think that by them

attacking me all week to try to sway my vote,

it's not going to happen.

I don't trust % that Jennifer will put James up.

There is a chance that she could put Howie up,

just to still try and break us up.

Of course.

Jennifer would be dumb to leave James in the game

because she doesn't want people to hate her.

If she does do it, we will definitely, definitely

make her pay the price for it.

I just want to know individually.

I'm going to ask you a question, and I

don't want you to take into consideration

how the group feels or how anyone in the group feels.

Pretend you're selfish right now.

I am selfish.

And you're head of household.

Who would you get rid of?

I don't know.

You have to give me an answer.

You want me to be honest with you?

Kaysar.

Why would you get rid of Kaysar against James?

Because he's able to run that group.

And you think that's a bigger threat

than what James is capable of?

There may be a chance that he doesn't put us up.

There's no chance that Kaysar will not put us up.

OK.

Good luck.

Don't tell anybody what we talked about.

Beau.

I really wanted to hear how they truly, truly thought

deep down with their heart.

And so I individually called my group up into the room.

Here's what I'm going to ask you.

You're head of household.

Who do you vote off?

I'm head of household.

[inaudible] James.

Only for the fact because I know I

have more of a chance to beat Kaysar in a veto

than to beat James in a veto.

Because James is a stronger competitor.

OK.

I'd pick off Kaysar because I've had a bad vibe

about Kaysar since the first week,

and I wanted to pick him off the first week.

Now I want to hear from you why you would get rid of James.

I would get rid of James because James has gone back

on his word a number of times, but to be honest,

I've been fearing Kaysar since I saw him the first week.

Are we going to give him a second chance

to come back and screw us?

I mean, I feel we could still dominate

them if they don't have him.

I don't know.

OK.

It's a sticky situation.

Who do you want off, Kaysar or James?

I would get Kaysar off because Kaysar

is the leader of that group.

Kaysar really is, much as he says he's not pissed,

he's pissed off at you.

I've taken into account all the reasons

that my group has given me for Kaysar and for James,

and it really is, it's making me think.

So it is up in the air and I really

don't want anyone to know what decision I'm going to make.

I just want to be the one to make up my own mind.

So I don't want even my group, nor April to know what

I'm doing until the time comes.

Don't tell anybody what we talked about.

No.

Like nothing.

We've got to save our a*s in this game.

Jen will not tell me what her next move is going to be.

She is % independent woman.

Jen is this storm that has just not hit land yet.

I don't want to question what you're doing, but I know--

But you're going to.

--what you're going through.

I know you like to keep things to yourself, that you haven't

told anyone what you're doing, but give me some assurance

that everything's going to go according to plan.

Yeah.

It is?

OK.

Honestly, I don't think Jennifer has the courage

to leave James in the game.

Based on logic, I don't see her doing it.

But I just wanted to touch base with you before tomorrow.

[inaudible] only one who's asked me

since the nomination ceremony.

How's that?

Nobody's talked to me about anything.

I know I made a deal with Kaysar to have him give me HOH,

but things in this house change on a dime,

and when you get an opportunity in front of your face,

sometimes you have to run with it.

I'm so fat.

[hissing]

If Kaysar wanted his plan to go through,

the only person you can trust in this game is yourself,

and he should have kept his finger on that button.

I'm going to be evil.

I'm trusting that Jennifer will make the right decision.

James should be the one going up today.

It was the house's wish, want, and decision to do that.

But Jennifer, you never know what's going through her mind.

She could do anything.

She could put Kaysar up.

She could put Howie up.

She could even do something so off the wall

as putting Ivette up.

Hey, everyone.

It's time for the veto ceremony.

Please gather in the living room.

Welcome to the veto ceremony.

As you know, Janelle and I have been nominated for eviction.

But I won the power of veto to veto one of those nominations.

At this time, Janelle, you want to go

ahead and stand up and let me know why

I should use the veto on you.

Well, I'm not going to stand, but I will say that Rachel,

just do what you have to do.

[laughter]

OK.

Thank you, Janelle.

You're welcome.

I think it's only natural to want to save yourself

in a situation like this, and I would expect Janelle

to do exactly the same thing.

That being said, I'm going to use the veto to save myself.

So Jennifer, since I have vetoed one of your nominations,

you now have to make another choice.

Since Rachel decided to use the power of veto for herself,

I have to nominate somebody else.

Everybody in this house does not trust James.

Kaysar singlehandedly brought a group together with him

as the leader, and he even admitted

himself that his group fell apart without him last week.

So I've thought about this a lot, and I nominate Kaysar.

This veto ceremony is adjourned.

I broke my word.

Duh.

That's a part of the game.

It does not say anywhere in the rulebook that you

cannot lie and promise someone something

and then break it later.

Kaysar's a lot more of a threat to us than James is.

This is beautiful.

Kaysar came back in this house with one intention,

to get me out.

This is revenge in every facet.

I am out to get Jennifer.

It's just promise after promise after promise

that they've continued to break.

If I win HOH, I'm going to tell the b*tch to pack her bags.

I feel personally betrayed and let down this week.

When you upset Hurricane Howie, better watch out, because I'm

going down swinging, and I got to take

the whole house down with me on the way out,

I'm going to do it.

Forget integrity, forget honor, forget the deal,

they wanted me out.

They've just proven themselves to be cowards.
