08x33 - Episode 33

[bunniefuu]

Three months ago, people moved

into the Big Brother House.

Among them, an estranged father and daughter who

had not spoken in nearly two years.

But today, they are one of the most formidable alliances

in Big Brother history.

And tonight, one of them will be crowned

the winner of Big Brother .

The live finale begins now.

[music playing]

This summer on Big Brother ,

houseguests moved in and began to battle

for a half million dollars.

Unbeknownst to them, the first of two major twists

was soon to be revealed.

JULIE: There is another group in the House with you right now.

About to be reunited were an estranged father and daughter.

My daughter that hasn't talked to me in two years.

Bitter ex-boyfriends.

Somehow I immaculately conceived gonorrhea.

What?

And high school rivals.

She owed me $ one time.

But the pairs became the early targets.

JULIE: Carol, Joe, you are a victim

from the Big Brother House.

d*ck and Daniele escaped an early eviction

and were forced to deal with their fractured relationship.

I'm not going to do this right now.

You're frustrating me so much!

When the late night crew alliance was formed,

they began dominating the game.

JULIE: Mike, Nick, Kail, you've been evicted

from the Big Brother House.

Meanwhile, d*ck and Daniele began making

progress on their relationship.

All I want is a commitment from you that you'll just try.

OK.

And when they found themselves on the block together,

d*ck went on the offensive to ensure his daughter's safety.

Eric, you will be joining me in sequester soon.

But when d*ck and Daniele made a deal with Jessica and Eric,

they unknowingly aligned themselves

with America's Player, the secret second twist

of the summer.

I'm America's Player.

And with America's directive,

Dustin.

The unthinkable happened.

JULIE: Dustin, you are evicted from the Big Brother House.

And this new power alliance took control of the game.

JULIE: Jen, Amber, you are evicted

from the Big Brother House.

When both sides began to doubt each other,

Do we actually trust them?

No.

We have to get Jessica out.

The Donatos struck first.

JULIE: Jessica, Eric, you've been evicted

from the Big Brother House.

And when Zach tried to take down the Donatos,

Nobody had the stones to truly try and muscle you guys out.

Well, I'm the muscle, and I'm going to try an muscle you.

Daniele won her fifth veto of the season.

[screams]

Sealing Jameka's fate.

JULIE: Jameka, you have been evicted

from the Big Brother House.

In the final three part head of household competition,

Zach won the first round, leaving the Donatos

to compete against each other.

d*ck won the second round, setting

the stage for the final battle.

JULIE: Congratulations, d*ck.

You are the final head of household.

[screams]

Yes, we did it!

Nobody could do it.

We did it.

We did it!

We did it.

Now, after a summer of outrageous behavior,

Bunny on a treadmill!

Romance.

That is the key to Nick's heart.

About time.

Heart break.

I hate this.

And I really regret it.

It's so hard.

And confrontation.

You're a devil in disguise is what you are.

You're burning me on purpose.

That's what I'm saying!

So what?

So what?

houseguests have departed.

And tonight, seven will return to make a difficult decision.

Yes! Yes!

Yes!

Yes!

Who will be crowned the winner of Big Brother

and walk away with a half million dollar prize?

And what will happen when the America's Player

twist is finally revealed?

It all starts right now, live on the season

finale of Big Brother .

Good evening.

I'm Julie Chen.

Welcome to the season finale of Big Brother .

It is day , and we are down to the final two,

d*ck and Daniele Donato.

Tonight their fate is in the hands of the jury of seven

who will be here in just a little

while to cast their votes for the winner live.

And that's not all.

It's the best kept secret of the summer.

Eric has been playing the game for you,

America, undercover and undetected as America's Player.

Tonight, the houseguests are in for a shock when we reveal

the big twist of Big Brother that not one of them

figured it out.

But first, for weeks the jurors have been waiting for Donato

to walk through the door.

So how did they react when the final juror

arrived and they were forced to debate

between father and daughter?

I would absolutely love to see d*ck or Daniele.

Honestly, it's a / toss up.

Well, I would least like to see Zach here.

Absolutely.

I'd least like to see him here.

How do you like that as an ironic turn of events, right?

The six of us pulling for him.

I would most like to see d*ck because I really

think that d*ck overall has to be the absolute worst

person I've ever met in my entire life,

and I just don't think that he even deserves to get $,.

And I'd like to see him here tonight

where he could beg and plead for us to vote for Daniele.

Sorry guys.

[interposing voices]

Sorry to see you, man.

Yeah.

I know.

Good job, Zach.

Zach, you are maybe the least person that we want to be

seeing right now honestly.

I don't know if this makes you feel better or worse, Zach.

It would have been a / vote.

You would have crushed either one of them.

That's what I thought too.

We are not glad to see you at all.

Oh my god, you guys.

What are we going to do?

We have to pick between those two.

Oh my god!

Who should Eric campaign and vote for to win Big Brother .

d*ck.

America, you have chosen wisely.

All right, guys.

Let's face the facts.

We all know that from our collective standpoint

we're essentially choosing the lesser of two evils here.

All right.

You know, we have a tough choice ahead of us.

Everyone here has been afflicted by a personal attack

by d*ck.

If we want to send a message to him,

then we can go back at him by him

not being rewarded with the major prize.

With d*ck winning, we are condoning that type of behavior

and sending the message to America that,

you know, being a piece of-- is great,

and it will win you $,.

Please tell me in the rulebook where it said that being polite

to people, being honest or trustworthy,

being any of these things were a criteria for playing this game.

d*ck made a clearly defined strategy from the minute

he walked in the door.

Whereas Daniele who is a sniveling

little baby, a brat who rode her father's coattails.

I put them up week two because I saw that,

that they were both horrible people

and that they were the strongest competitors in the game.

We're all pretty much stupid for not voting them out the three

times they were up.

So now we're figuring out who's the worst of the worst.

And I can't ever condone, ever do anything

for anyone who is such a big--

than d*ck.

He treated you like--

for so long, and then he just forgave him.

And you were like--

No I didn't.

You called a truce.

The truth was d*ck's not going to yell at me.

The day someone talks to me like that--

that's, like, embarrassing that you allowed someone to do that.

And now you're sitting here now that it's all said and done,

saying you can't give him money, you won't give him your vote

because the way he treated you. [interposing voices]

I'm going to have to pull a refocus here.

The goal of the discussion is who deserves to win Big Brother

and how did they get from point A

to point B. I think that d*ck's best strategic move was

targeting the correct person at the correct time

throughout the game.

Daniele's best strategic move was allowing

her father to carry her to the end

and take the b*ll*ts for her.

I think Daniele should win because d*ck is an a*s--

and I think d*ck shouldn't win.

And that's it.

Can we look past, you know, d*ck's personal attacks

and look at his game versus Daniele's game.

She really, at least in my eyes, was amazing competitor.

POV's, tied Janelle for the title, for the most POV's

won in a season.

Her reason for winning would be hands down

she was a strong competitor.

Right.

Everybody knew that if you put her up,

she was most likely going to win that veto and take herself off.

And, you know, three out of four times, she did.

We're making an argument how Daniele

was such a fierce competitor.

d*ck won three HOH's and won the veto that saved his own life.

He won clutch crucial ones.

So let's not devalue his competitive stature.

He didn't just play for one person.

He played for two.

And he looked out for two people the whole entire game.

And look who's in the final two--

him and her, mainly because of him.

That's awesome.

I mean, he's but he's an awesome.

I don't see her on any higher level than her dad at all.

No, she's not.

Well, d*ck is this, and d*ck is that.

d*ck did this.

Well, Daniele did it all.

She just did it quieter.

She's getting away with so much, and I

just don't understand, like, how you guys can't see that.

Granted, you know, d*ck is totally freedom of speech

and does his thing, but d*ck was the guard dog

and Daniele was holding the leash pulling it back.

Exactly.

She would make a call, and d*ck would abide by it.

You have Daniele who, you know, is the pimp

and ED is the h*.

And Daniele pretty much orchestrates, OK.

This is what we going to do.

This how you going to get that money.

ED and Joy.

Ridiculing people, talking smack,

and Daniele just collected all the benefits from it.

The two of them are.

Up there and by golly, it's either evil or evil

spawn that's going to win.

Coming up, the jurors grill the final two.

And d*ck and Daniele get one last chance

to defend themselves.

Plus, it's the biggest twist of the summer--

d*ck, Daniele, and the jury will be

stunned to discover that you had a major impact

on determining the final two.

Stay with us.

Welcome back.

Nothing was off limits for this jury

as they began to question d*ck and Daniele.

Hello, d*ck.

Hello, Daniele.

[laughing]

It's Dustin.

Hello, Dustin.

I just want to say kudos to both of you.

You got what you wanted.

The two of you are sitting in the final two.

But let's not forget this is Big Brother,

and there is only one winner.

So with that said, d*ck, knowing that your daughter had

said I will carry my dad with me because he's a terrible person

and I would love to sit next to him

because it guarantees me a win--

how do you feel sitting next to her now?

I feel great sitting next to Daniele now.

It doesn't really matter what she said.

We have had the hardest game of anyone in this house.

Nobody really carried anyone.

This I look at as the best team that has ever played this game.

Nobody else as a team has ended up here as the final two.

Okie dokie.

Hi, d*ck, Daniele.

Hey, girl.

My question is for Daniele.

Why should I give you your vote considering

what you did to your boyfriend on national television

with Nick?

Honestly, you're a very pathetic person for what you did to him.

I just want to know why should I respect you as a person.

To be quite honest, Amber, my personal life has absolutely

nothing to do with this game.

Nobody knows my situation with the Nick,

how I really feel about him, what happened,

or what didn't happen.

And if you're going to base your vote strictly

on my personal life, I don't want your vote because that has

nothing to do with this game.

Hi, guys.

It's Jessica.

Hello, Jessica.

If there could be one other person besides Daniel

that you could be sitting next to right now,

who would that be?

It never even crossed my mind.

I never envisioned anything but Daniele.

It was all about both of us getting here.

I'm telling you the honest truth.

I haven't lied to you, Jessica.

You did lie to me because you assured

me all week that I was staying and that Jameka was leaving.

But both of you lied.

So I just want to say that this will be a very tough decision

for me on who I will pick.

Um, d*ck, you have personally slandered

every member of this jury at one time or another.

So I'm going to ask you to do the opposite.

Please tell me the reason that each jury member would

deserve to be in the final two.

Ah.

Let's start with Dustin.

Why does Dustin deserve to be here in the final two?

I don't believe he does.

Sorry.

Let's move on to the next one.

Jen absolutely does not deserve to be in the final two.

Why would Amber deserve to be in the final two?

I don't know.

There was no real strategic or huge moves

in the game made by Amber by sliding through as, like,

the good people.

Jessica made some moves when she was HOH,

but she tried not to bloody her hands too much.

Eric, I believe that you were the best

player in this game and a force to be reckoned with.

Jameka-- we did give Jameka the opportunity

to stay in this game longer than she was going to.

And I think that Jameka appreciates what we did.

Zach came on huge at the end and almost

ate through to the final two.

Hey, guys.

It's your neighborhood Roeger.

What's going on?

What up, Roeger?

What up?

My question to both of you is the same.

I'll start with Daniele's answer first.

I want to know what you have learned

and will take with you outside of this house

from each member on the jury.

Wow.

Eric, I'm definitely going to take Eric's sense

of humor out of this house.

Jessica, you brought so much happiness into this house.

You're just your typical fun loving girl,

and that's definitely something that I

will take out of this as well.

Amber, you have a huge, huge heart.

You're making sure Daniele, are you eating your slop?

Are you taking your vitamins?

Definitely the mother of the house,

and I will take that out of this.

What have I learned from Dustin?

To be careful with overconfidence

because it gets you in trouble, especially in this game.

Jen, I think what I've learned is no matter how a person seems

on the outside that there is somewhere a real person

down deep in there.

And it's sometimes hard to find.

Jameka-- Jameka is probably the best

hearted person in this place.

I do respect you a lot.

Zach, you definitely gave us a run for our money.

I did learn that underestimating someone's will and heart--

it's not a good idea.

And you showed me that.

OK.

Daniele, what exactly do you credit yourself

for in terms of the biggest moves

and not using your father to help you advance in the game?

It's really hard for me because I know

that a lot of people have seen us one person,

and the whole Eric thing when I was first HOH

was all my planning.

Another big move would have been,

you know, sorry, but back dooring Jen.

It was about making it to the final two

and doing what I thought was best.

Hello, it's me.

I'm actually here.

Hey, Jen.

I obviously don't respect either of you

as people in the real world.

But at this point, I have no choice

but to vote for one of you.

d*ck, do you think that this has helped you build

your relationship with Daniele?

Wow.

That's a very odd question coming from you.

I'm almost blindsided.

This has been an absolutely amazing experience

to share with someone that is so dear to me,

that I love so much.

Having this as a beginning to building some type of normalcy

in our father-daughter relationship,

I appreciate even more than being here in the final two.

I think I've showed that in this game.

And if you don't already know, then you're an idiot.

Wow. Wow.

Wow. Wow.

Wow.

I never in a million years thought that we would

have worked this well together.

It's not your normal father-daughter relationship.

So it is what you make of it, and I honestly think

that we made a lot out of this.

There's nobody I would rather be sitting next to,

and I hope that you guys just vote with your hearts,

do what you think is best, and I'm

completely content with that.

I played hard.

I've had to play this game hard from the beginning.

There was no flooding under the radar.

When I was on the block against Dustin,

the deal that I proposed to Eric changed

the game completely, a .

It was a last ditch effort in order

to try to convince Jessica and Eric

to become our allies instead of our enemies, which we did.

And we were a very strong alliance.

When that came to an end, that's probably the thing

that I feel the worst about in this house

was turning on Jessica and Eric.

I did a lot of the dirty work.

I did what needed to be done, not just

for myself, but for Daniele.

I'm here.

I made it with my daughter.

As far as I'm concerned, we won.

Thanks, you guys.

That was kind of crappy.

What?

Your speech.

My speech?

Yeah.

Why was it crappy?

Because I said the whole time, like,

it's not going to be, you know, campaigning for me to win.

I didn't sit there and call out every single thing

that I did and everything else.

That was just kind of crappy.

Whatever.

It's fine.

Great.

Something else for her to be pissed at me about.

Unbelievable.

Let's welcome the Big Brother Jury.

Dustin.

Jen.

Amber.

Jessica.

Eric.

Jameka.

And finally, Zach.

When we return, the moment these jurors

have been waiting for.

They will get the final word as they cast their votes.

Stay with us.

Welcome back.

The jurors are here, and d*ck and Daniele are in the House.

Let's talk to them now.

d*ck, Daniele, congratulations once again.

- Thank you, Julie. - Thank you, Julie.

You're welcome.

d*ck, how are you feeling tonight?

I feel really good.

I feel great.

[laughs] It's weird looking at myself right now,

but I feel really good.

It couldn't be any better.

I'm here with my daughter.

JULIE: Daniele, how about you?

Honestly, it feels absolutely amazing.

This last week has been really nice,

you know, getting to spend time with my dad reminiscing on all

the houseguests, all the fun times, the bad times,

and I couldn't ask for anything more

to be sitting here next to my dad.

So I am ecstatic.

JULIE: Good to hear.

Well, your jury is right here, and it is time for them

to cast their votes for either you, d*ck, or you, Daniele,

to win Big Brother .

Jurors, I'm going to ask each of you

to step up to the voting box one at a time

and insert the key of the person that you

want to see win Big Brother .

Without revealing your decision, you

will be allowed to make one final statement to the Donatos

before you cast your vote.

And Eric, you are up first.

Hey, guys.

Congratulations once again.

To me, this was a clear cut choice, and best of luck

to both of you.

JULIE: Thanks, Eric.

Jameka, you're up.

OK.

Congratulations, Donatos.

My vote will be going to possibly

someone whose game I respect.

Thank you and good luck.

JULIE: Thank you, Jameka.

Dustin, come on down.

Hey, guys.

I just want to let you know that someone in the House

once said to me that actions speak louder than words.

So I am basing my vote on strategic action, not just

words.

JULIE: Thank you, Dustin.

Jen.

Honestly, I would prefer to vote

for anyone besides either of you in the House,

but I have no choice.

So I will have to vote for one of you.

JULIE: Thank you, Jen.

Zach, come on down.

Well, I was in the house longest with both of you,

and I met you both competitively and personally.

With that, I'll leave my vote.

JULIE: Thank you, Zach.

Amber, it's your turn.

Congratulations guys to both of you.

I was close to both of you in the House,

and I had ups and downs with both of you.

I'm basing my decision strictly on game strategic purpose.

Whoops.

Sorry.

JULIE: Thank you, Amber.

And finally, Jessica.

Congratulations d*ck and Daniele.

I'm voting for the person that I enjoyed more in the House.

May the best Donato win.

JULIE: Thank you, Jessica.

Thank you, jurors.

The votes are now locked.

And in just a few moments, the first five

evicted houseguests will come face to face

with their former housemates.

Stay with us.

Welcome back to Big Brother.

For the first time in the history of the show,

two family members had made it to the final two.

I am standing here with Charlotte who is d*ck's mother

and Daniele's grandmother.

She also raised Daniele and Vincent who is d*ck's

son and Daniele's brother.

Welcome to both of you.

Charlotte, let me begin with you.

You must be so delighted to see your son

and your granddaughter make it to the final two.

But what was it like for you to see two people who

you love who had not talked for two years

forge a relationship in the House?

It's a miracle.

[laughs]

JULIE: You mean it wouldn't have happened had it not been for--

It might have, but it would take a long time.

It wouldn't have happened now.

So I just hope they keep it up, this relationship,

and the support that they have for each other.

They make a great team, and I hope they keep

it for the rest of their lives.

Thank you.

It's been great.

Now Vince, your dad played a very provocative,

if not controversial game.

Is he always like this? Yeah.

So how do you think of the way he played the game?

You know, Julie, I'm sure everybody brings

a little bit of themselves into the game,

but it's still just a game.

He played his game, and it got him far.

JULIE: It sure did. All right.

Thank you, Vincent.

Thank you, Charlotte.

Now, please help me welcome the first evicted houseguests who

had been at home watching and know everything

that's happened this summer.

Carol, Mike, Kail, Joe, and Nick.

It's good to see you all back here.

Welcome.

Nick, I want to begin with you because you flew to New York

to get help--

possibly help Daniele during the Power of .

You didn't get a chance to speak to her.

Here is your chance.

What would you like to say?

- Is Daniele on right now? - Yes.

And she's watching you and listening.

- Hey. - Hi, Daniele.

How are you doing? - Hey, Nick.

Good. How are you?

I'm good.

I'll see you in a little bit I guess.

Awkward.

Yeah.

Exactly.

- Is it awkward for you? - Yeah.

A little bit.

It's good though.

JULIE: We can't wait to see the reunion.

Me either.

JULIE: Carol, let me turn to you.

What was it like for you watching at home

seeing your high school rival, Jessica, last all

the way to week number nine.

What surprised you most?

You know, I was actually kind of proud

of the way she handled herself.

She did a good job throughout the process.

However, there were some hurtful words and whatnot that

was said, but it's just a game.

So some things were personal.

Some things were game.

JULIE: Hurtful words, not towards you though?

Or are you saying yes? - Oh, no.

Not at all.

JULIE: Oh.

You're talking about while you were in the house.

You must have watched the tapes.

Joe, let me turn to you.

What was it like for you watching your ex, Dustin, play?

How do you think he did?

Watching Dustin play was actually pretty enjoyable.

It was kind of neat to see like him fall apart

and put himself up there.

I couldn't have hoped for anything better.

But honestly, all I could say to him is, congratulations.

You did really well, and you got far.

So good job.

Dustin, you want to say anything to that?

No.

[laughter]

OK.

Let me turn to Mike.

In the beginning of the game, we saw you

in the Mrs. Robinson alliance.

Zach was one of the members.

Were you rooting for him to make it to the final two?

I actually was rooting for you, Zach.

Sorry you couldn't pull through, but I

was behind you all the way.

Right on.

JULIE: And Kail, you were one of the first people who wanted

to see d*ck out of the house.

Are you surprised he made it this far?

I'm not surprised at all.

JULIE: Why not?

Because I--

Jen and Mike and I knew that the two, Daniel and d*ck,

were very strong players.

They came out strong, and they finished strong.

JULIE: They certainly did.

Well, the five of you have been watching the show at home,

and you all know something that the rest

of the houseguests don't.

It is time to reveal the big twist of Big Brother .

d*ck, Daniele, jurors, as we always say

expect the unexpected.

And what could be more unexpected than a twist that

has played out this entire summer

and has made an impact on both the game and life in the House.

One of you has a secret.

One of you has not been playing the game alone.

One of view is not all you appear to be.

Who is it?

And what's the big twist of Big Brother ?

Let's find out.

Hey, guys.

I'm the big secret twist of Big Brother .

I'm called America's Player.

What that means is all summer long I've been secretly playing

this game for the viewers.

Every week America voted and told me what to do.

From whose shirt to cover in muster.

Yes! I knew it!

Ew.

Who put mustard all over my thing?

To who to get nominated.

America wants to target Jessica.

I wanted to talk to you about Jessica.

She is up to a lot more than she's letting onto.

To who to vote out of the house.

All right, America.

Let's see what you got.

Joe.

Kail.

Amber.

I'm disappointed to say that I never got

to cast my own vote to evict.

America told me who to evict, and that's what I had to do.

Surprise.

Surprise.

Dustin.

I think that Dustin is up to things,

and I think he will try and go with Jen

or Zach or Daniele or whoever.

America had me go after Dustin.

The whole house flipped.

Dustin, you are evicted from the Big Brother House.

In turn, Dustin left.

d*ck stayed.

d*ck, you America a big fat thank you.

Oh.

And those mystery votes.

Kail.

Kail.

They were me doing America's bidding.

A few of the tasks I really had fun with.

You must mimic the actions and words of the houseguests

America has chosen for you.

You will need to make up a traumatic story from your past.

Eric, I know when something's bothering you.

I had a girlfriend.

She, like, had a serious eating disorder.

And we, like, broke up, like, at a dinner.

I didn't always complete the task.

You must give the silent treatment to the houseguest

America has chosen for you.

Jessica.

Obviously America has turned on me.

You will need to sleepwalk and climb

into the bed of the houseguest America has chosen for you.

Joe.

Do you sleep do anything?

And why would this be me?

Cause it was late and it was a dark mirror person.

No.

Not me.

I didn't always agree with America,

but it was my job to do my best to complete the tasks.

Ultimately, I had a great time.

I hope you guys understand.

No hard feelings.

JULIE: Oh, I see Eric already leaning

in whispering to Jessica.

Jessica, you were the closest person to Eric in the house.

Now that you know the secret, what are you thinking?

And what did he just whisper to you?

I'm thinking, oh my god.

He just said that we can talk later and um--

I-- wow.

Someone that I lived with for that long,

and I didn't know that.

I mean, I'm sure he wasn't allowed to tell me,

but I'm just in shock.

I can't believe it.

JULIE: Are you mad at him?

No!

All season, I have not been able to be mad at Eric.

And I'm not.

JULIE: He's wiping the sweat away now.

d*ck, let me turn to you because had it not been for America's

Player, had it not been for America and for Eric,

you could have been voted out week six instead of Dustin.

So how surprised are you?

I'm really surprised.

At the time though, I was seriously ready to go.

I thought I was going, and I was here to push Daniele forward.

I thought I made a great power play in the game,

and it turns out that it's just everybody

watching that kept me in the House and sent Dustin packing.

JULIE: No.

Don't forget that Eric had to campaign to convince the votes

to vote Dustin out, not you.

And he only gets one vote.

So he has to persuade the others.

Yeah.

Well, it was Jessica and those two with Jen and the other.

But that awesome.

Wow!

I'm still kind of taken back.

JULIE: Well, let me turn to Daniele.

How surprised are you, Daniele?

OK.

We knew the mustard was Eric, and we

knew the two votes were Eric.

Everything else, honestly, I am shocked,

but I think it's hilarious.

I think it's really funny.

So it's very-- I think it's cool.

JULIE: Let's see if Dustin thinks

it's so funny because, Dustin, as result, Eric had to convince

people to vote you out.

Are you surprised at how well he--

how convincing he was to the others to come on board

and vote you out?

Oh, absolutely not.

Eric can sell anything if he wants anything done.

And you know, I'm sure that he just

pulled that I was the biggest threat to him personally

and, you know, probably stated a good claim that I

was a good threat to everybody in the game

and therefore I was out.

But I couldn't have been happier.

I would have gotten out anyways, and I got to spend

a long time in paradise.

JULIE: Jameka, we heard you say, something's

not right with Eric.

Now that you know, does it all makes sense it?

It absolutely makes sense to me.

And, you know, it's kind of, like, I don't

know-- a woman's intuition about a man,

and I just couldn't trust him.

I knew it was something not quite falling together.

JULIE: Jen, now you know that it was America who basically

poured mustard on your shirt.

This is your chance to address the nation.

What do you have to say?

Well, I was wondering who was that childish

when it happened because I was like, who does this?

But now I see it was America.

JULIE: Cat's out of the bag.

[laughs] Cat is out of the bag.

Eric, what do you have to say for yourself?

Well, the first thing I want to say is, Dustin, Amber,

I would have never done it.

You have to take it up with million fans, not me.

I wanted you guys to be there, and I'm sorry.

And you'll see it when you watch the show.

The other thing I want to say is--

Jess, everything that we shared was a true and genuine.

Trust me, anyone will attest to the fact,

and I'm sure all of them will, that I have been dying

to tell you for a long time.

It's been k*lling me.

And just know that everything that we shared

was me, really me, no nonsense.

JULIE: Thank you, Eric.

I just had this going on.

JULIE: Thank you, Eric.

Well, d*ck and Daniele, Eric had one final task

and that was to cast America's vote as to who America

wants to win Big Brother .

Coming up, we'll find out who America and the jurors

chose to win.

Stay with us.

Welcome back.

It all comes down to this moment it's time to crown

the winner of Big Brother .

d*ck, Daniele, I'm about to count the votes.

Just a reminder-- the winner will receive $,.

And the runner up, $,.

Let me find your runner-up daughter.

I need you to come here.

[laughs] All right.

Come with me.

We will have more with the father

and daughter team that swept this season of Big Brother

when we return.

Welcome back to Big Brother.

All right.

Just for the record, Jessica voted

for d*ck to be the winner.

So that means, d*ck, you won to .

Congratulations again to both of you.

You have $,.

What are you going to do with all that money, d*ck?

I'm taking a trip, man.

I'm getting the hell out of here away from some of these people.

And I'm going to relax, and I'm doing the around the world

thing for sure.

JULIE: And you are runner up.

You have $,.

How do you feel tonight?

To be completely honest, I know nobody believes me,

but I'm ecstatic.

I am absolutely ecstatic.

We won.

It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter, and I'm absolutely ecstatic.

Congratulations to both of you.

With days and competitions,

this has been an exciting and emotional summer.
