Previously on "big brother"! Nick, his showmance and bella
Were on the bottom of the alliance.
The other members, molly, jack, tommy, christie and mickey have
Their sights sets on a new sixsome.
I like six shooters.
The six of us.
Yes.
Christie won the panic power.
You activate the panic power, the diamond veto will allow the
Veto holder to remove someone from the chopping block but they
Can rename the replacement nominee.
And was quick to share the news with members of her
Alliance.
As the hoh, picking her replacement, the person has the
Veto gets to pick the replacement.
Head of household nick was intent on getting nicole out.
Nicole, please take a seat.
The six shooters wanted to target the texan.
Dangerous.
He's the wild card.
So a plan was born to blindside nick and bella.
The more that I think about it, the more I realize getting
Rid of nicole isn't best for every one's game just best for
Nick and bella.
I don't know if I'm on board with this.
At the live eviction, they sent cliff to hog heaven.
By a vote of -, you're the final member of camp comeback.
And he joined comeback with david and ovi.
At the comeback comp, one of the first four evicted had a chance
To return to the game.
And cliffamania was running wild.
Congratulations to cliff! You're officially back in the
Game. But sadly david, ovi and kemi
Were evicted for good.
Tonight what will be the fall-out of the six sh**ter's
Blindside?
I think you made plays over and over again to try to figure
Out how to get me up.
That's what I think.
Police, with cliff back in the house, how will he shake up
The game?
And will the power finally shift at the head of household
Competition?
Find out right now on "big brother"!
Find out right now on "big brother"!
Captioning funded by cbs yes, cliff!
I'm back, baby! Thinking you were going home.
I just beat three people more than half my age.
Nobody was expecting this old guy was going to win this
Competition and be back in the house.
It wasn't that hard.
I can't believe it.
How did he do it?
One would think that maybe david would take this.
But no, it's the old guy that we voted out and now he's back.
How did this happen?
I really feel betrayed, disgusted really.
They just blindsided me on a vote.
They don't trust me.
I don't know.
I could have tried to flip the vote last week.
I know.
I need to talk to you.
Apparently flipping votes is the new thing in "big brother"
When you're in an alliance.
Stupid.
I look like an idiot, a huge idiot on national television.
Great.
Talking about pressure.
Oh, my gosh.
I'm so sorry.
I just really was hoping -- it's not that I don't want you
To.
I'm so sorry.
It's okay.
Bad idea.
David got evicted.
Because I got to know him the past couple days.
I know how bad you wanted him to play.
I had so much fun with the other men.
I just -- you had a very personal
Relationship with david.
You liked him personally.
I can't believe I'm crying this much.
I hardly ever cry.
I'm sorry.
Why didn't you just tell me?
We all would have flipped.
We tried to tell you guys.
We just completely blindsided neck and bella with chris.
Now with this hoh it's crucial that we smooth things over as
Quickly as possible.
If bella pulls out a win, I wouldn't put it past her that
She throws two of us on the block to get revenge.
Nick, we tried to tell you.
Why didn't you just say we want to vote out chris?
We didn't feel like we could after what happened.
The blow-up.
Didn't feel like it was an option.
I wish it wasn't like this.
What the hell is going on?
I was % convinced I was going home.
I'm so frickin' excited.
Christie, tommy, holly -- just comfortables and
Consoling.
Oh, my gosh.
I can't believe it.
Just work with us, not against us.
Make sure that nicole is very, very clear on the fact
That I kept her safe and gave her a second chance.
If any cole wins hoh, hopefully she will remember how mistreated
She was by nick and bella last week.
We trust you.
Oh, my god.
I can't believe it.
I can cry.
I kept telling you, come after us, come after us.
Nicole is gone.
Yeah.
I thought that's what it was about.
From a respect point of view, aren't we on the same team?
Yeah.
We should have voted unanimously.
Leading us to believe, okay, it's nicole going out is not a
Smart move, this is just stupid.
My stomach is in knots.
It's exhausting.
This game is exhausting.
I feel like people just keep trying to kick me down.
It's just getting old.
When we first heard from nicole, he said he was going to
Stick to his g*ns.
He went up.
So for you guys not to tell us last minute, by the way, we're
Going to flip.
You don't trust me.
I trusted you.
Nicole said that you wanted to get me out.
Seconds before I walked in.
I didn't do it.
That literally wasn't true.
There's no reason for you guys not to tell us.
Every decision is for our game.
So here's the thing.
Came down to us.
Knowing you have the best chance between you and nicole coming
Back.
Time to do some damage control with cliff.
Week one, I banished cliff.
Then I blindsided him.
I'm for .
Who is in the alliance?
It wasn't the alliance.
There's not one.
I need you to know holly and I know we can trust you.
I know I can trust you.
I hope you know you can trust me, too.
Promise.
What happens with you especially are solid.
Solid.
All I know is I was going out the door because of what they
Did.
Mickey, you can tell me this was always the plan.
But I'm not buying it.
I don't know who to turn to right now.
You can turn to us.
Well, we'll see how the cookie crumbles.
Let's play "big brother."
It sucks now.
Because we look like a split house now.
If one of them wins, they're coming for a split now.
That's just happened.
That's what sucks worse. We should have came together
This morning and all the way down.
You have a very valid -- you're right.
We should have came together and said let's tell them.
I don't think we made the decision it was meant to do
That.
We felt like -- so how would you have --
And it's like oh, it's better.
I want to be honest with you, if you win, I feel I'll see my
Face on the board.
We hate you feel that way.
We should have talked to you.
I think we were misled for the last four days now.
I could have put both of you up.
I know. I didn't.
I can trust you.
Why can't you trust me?
We can trust you?
Yes.
This is not something that was planned at all.
It wasn't a deceptive thing.
Are we forgetting the fact that less than a week ago, we were on
Unstable ground going into this to begin with?
This whole week -- could have been the week that
We proved ourselves, come together.
The fact that we didn't really --
I agree.
So tell me you're in an alliance with me and be shady.
It really from this side looks like we don't exist.
We were frickin' blind-sided.
We were told the nicole story now.
It's clearly -- it's fake.
Don't treat me like I'm years old and try to talk down to me
And pretend to me this alliance exists and it's not.
You can't be preaching let's be for the team and act against
It. I'm listening to bella talk.
It's more and more lies.
I'm over it.
My skin is boiling.
Over and over in my mind, you have done everything to break
Down our alliance.
You have done it.
I'm not going to sit here and be quiet about it.
You've made playing over and over again to figure out how to
Get me out.
That's what I think.
You think that is me too?
No.
I'm out of it.
Just listen.
It's like they all have like some type of game or something.
Other people create targets for themselves.
It's true.
It's like the hoh can flip the game.
We have division within that game.
If I win this hoh, that flip will turn into a hell of a
Crack.
We have to win the hoh.
Hi, everyone.
It's time for the hoh competition.
Meet me in the back yard.
Let's do it! I could have waited on
Dinner, to be honest.
Wow! Whoa!
I walk outside, looks like I'm in a forest.
Looks like I'm going camping.
I see tents, a camp fire.
Patch perfect! All right, house guests.
It's time to crown a new hoh.
As outgoing hoh, I will not compete.
This is called patch perfect.
Here's how it works.
In each round, you'll be asked a question about a group of b.b.
Merit patches.
Answer by choosing the patch you think is correct.
Advancing to the next round won't be an easy task.
In every round, two players will be eliminated no matter what.
Here's the ways you can get knocked out of the competition.
If two people answer incorrectly in a round, they're out of the
Game and the next round begins.
If everyone answers correctly, the last two players to answer
Will with eliminated in that round.
Who is ready to play "patch perfect?"
[Applause] I feel like I'm in a pit.
I feel sick to my stomach going into this competition.
The odds are not in my favor.
It's everyone against team nick and bella.
If I don't win this hoh, my name will be on the board.
I need to win this hoh.
I just came back into the house.
I feel like I can't trust any of them.
Right now it's do-or-die.
I have to win this thing for myself.
It is crucial that one of six shooters wins this hoh.
We just drew a line in the sand.
If I win, nick and bella are going on the block.
Oh, my god, a fire has been lit underneath me.
I want this hoh more than anything.
I want to prove I can win, I want to shake up the house and
Put people out.
I'm here to win.
I want it so bad.
It's mine.
I feel it.
All right.
Here's your first question.
Which patch has a kaitlyn patch directly above and below it?
Which patch has a kaitlyn patch directly above and below it?
The last two players to lock in the correct answer were nicole
And holly.
I'm sorry.
You have been eliminated.
The correct answer is the camp corrector patch.
Oh, my gosh! How could I screw that up?
All right.
Here's your round two question.
Which patch appears exactly twice?
I need to find a batch that appears twice.
I can't think.
I have to press the button and hope that I'm right.
Looks like we have two incorrect answers.
So I'm sorry.
Kathryn and isabella, you have been eliminated.
The correct answer was the chopping block patch.
I hit the wrong button.
My heart just dropped.
I feel like I just let myself down.
I let nick down.
I feel like I just ruined our game.
All right.
Time for round three.
Here's the next question.
Which patch appears the most?
I'm looking for the patch that appears the most.
All I see is ducks, ducks, ducks.
So which has the most?
There's cool ducks, floater ducks.
Obviously I'm buzzing in on the cool ducks.
Looks like we have two incorrect answers.
That means jessica and analyse, you have been eliminated.
The correct answer is the cool as duck patch.
Okay, guys.
We're down to tommy, jack, michie, chris, sam and nicky.
Here's the next question.
Which patch appears between the two fishing patches?
Which patch appears between the two fishing patches?
So first I was scanning the board to find two identical
Fishing patches.
It's tricky because I'm realizing there are none.
Then I spot a fishing patch with a look and a line and I see the
Fishing patch with pink.
Then I see one that says "getting nailed."
Everyone got that correct.
For michie and sam, you were the last two to answer.
I'm sorry.
You've been eliminated.
The correct answer was "getting nailed."
I feel devastated.
Sam was the last person that would have had my back.
Now he's not playing.
I feel sick.
Only four remain.
Tommy, jack, cliff and christie.
We're down to the final four, which is great.
I have three out of six shooters and cliff.
It's a % chance of us winning hoh, which brings us a step
Closer to getting hoh and putting nick and bella up.
And here's your next question.
Which patch appears exactly six times.
I got to find the patch that appears exactly six times.
I see a red patch, lightning bolt.
I count them out.
That's not the answer.
All of this counting is taking too much time.
I have to buzz in before somebody else does.
Everyone answer correctly.
But unfortunately tommy and christie were the last to
Answer.
You two have been eliminated.
The correct answer is most likely to succeed.
It's the old man versus aqua man.
I've got to win this hoh.
If I can pull this off, I can shake this game up.
Tommy and me get eliminated at the same time.
We voted cliff out this week.
If he wins hoh, chances are he is putting two of us on the
Block.
This is all on jack's shoulders right now.
It's all down to this.
Jack versus cliff.
Who will be the next head of household?
I'm down to the final round.
It's me versus jack.
I'm battling this house's roman god.
I have to win.
It's down to cliff and i.
Cliff has just been evicted.
He same back from camp comeback and now has a chance to complete
A cinderella story and I'm the bad guy.
I have to win this thing.
Here's your final question.
Which patch appears more times than the other?
Which patch appears more times than the other?
And cliff was first to answer with the active badge.
Let's see if he's correct.
Way to go cliff! Congratulations to cliff.
You're the head of household.
You're good.
Whoo-hoo! I don't go down easy.
I fight every step of the way.
If cliff the maniac is out there, don't ever give up on me
Or doubt that I'll give %.
There's a new sheriff in the "big brother" house.
His name is cliff.
If you prefer, you can call me boss.
That couldn't have went any better.
This competition couldn't have gone any better.
I gave cliff the key to the hoh.
He knows that six people just flipped the vote to vote him
Out.
Makes me feel that the target is one of the six, which means I'm
Good this week.
I was so close.
It's five million pounds of irony hallmark card.
We evict somebody, he comes back in the battle back and wins the
Hoh.
This is a huge wrench in the game.
Hell yes.
Hell yes.
Let's called this victory dance number .
I'm dancing alone now.
But I bet I have a lot of people coming to be my dance partners.
Suddenly I'm in a position of power.
Something that I haven't had in this game yet.
There were six votes counted against me.
I'm going to be looking closely at those six people and see who
May be against my game and who may need to be sweating a little
Bit right now.
There's targets in this house now.
We're going to play a different game next week.
I'm so happy.
I'm super grateful that cliff just won hoh.
All of my alliance members who blindsided me and nick better
Keep their eyes wide open for this week.
Two of them are being nominated.
One is going home and I'm not doing anything to stop it.
I don't know what I'm going to do with myself.
I don't hold grudges.
Obviously you're safe this week.
Thanks so much.
I'm not going anywhere close to you.
I may not hang around too much.
Just keep our distance to see how things pan out.
Definitely.
Oh, my gosh, I'm so, so excited that cliff is hoh.
We'll talk.
Congrats to you.
Yeah.
Cliff winning hoh is worst case scenario.
We have to make lemonades out of lemons.
Lucky chris has some power here that might help us out.
Should I use the pawn?
Chris has the veto power.
It's nick or bella.
Might be the best option for our alliance.
I want to go up as a pawn, a good chance that I can win this
Power of veto.
If I do, christie can activate her power which allows me to
Replace myself with nick or bella.
It's a gamble but I like to gamble.
Let's do it.
I'll talk to christie first before I offer that up.
Would you be willing to use your power on me?
On you?
Why you?
Put me up against isabella.
I want to see it first, if you'd be willing the power.
Of course I would.
%.
Cool.
Michie's plan is insane, but it's so insane that it might
Actually work.
If michie wins the golden power of veto, we can put whoever we
Want on the block in his place.
Now we just need to get cliff on board with this plan, too.
I need some help.
If it means me putting my a*s on the line, I will.
I want them gone that bad.
Come join me. How are we doing here?
We're doing well.
I'm not going to be intimidated to making decisions.
I don't want to target anybody that has been on there before.
I'd love to do something that we can support together.
Seems like there's this thing going with bell will and nick
Versus the others.
Unfortunately for us, if we don't stick together, I think
We're the first ones out.
I totally agree with that.
I support the idea of the four of us working together.
I do have trepidations because I don't know exactly where where
They are in the house.
Of the three, I trust cliff.
I feel like we've been kicked around for a while.
I'm ready to change it up.
I'm not sure I can trust any of these people completely.
I feel like we have to band together against the couples.
Together we can overcome the numbers that they have on their
Side.
Flip this house upside-down.
I think we have to stay together strong or we're
Screwed.
I won't tell this to anybody.
Appreciate that.
≫> it's cliff?
≫> it's cliff?
Yeah, come on in.
Time to get down to business.
I have to sell cliff on a plan that I'm contracted.
Contracted or constructed.
Contracted is the wrong word.
I hope that this can stay between us.
Absolutely.
Let me ask your opinion on nick and bella.
I don't know that I necessarily trust bella a whole
Lot.
If you are willing to, we could potentially knock out nick
Or bella this week with no blood on your hands.
Here's the proposition I go up as a pawn.
I go up as a pawn accomplishes a few things.
One, it maintains the image that you are coming after me as
Revenge.
Sure.
Two, you're also going after the couples which nick and bella
Think you want to do.
You're going after half of them.
But you put me against bella, we don't trust bella.
Nobody does.
She did nicole dirty.
And I know you like nicole.
By doing this, you go from being a potential target in some
People's eyes to a hero.
It does.
I'm trying to convince him my plan is mutually beneficial.
In reality, my main goal is to keep us safe.
If I say yes, we're solid.
If you have five minutes, I want to give talk to christie.
She wants to talk to you about something, too.
I'm going to grab her real quick.
Cool.
Now it's time to get christie up there so she can tell him
About her power.
I'm hoping it might build some trust with him.
This young guy, michie, he's trying to tell me what I need to
Do.
I've been all over the world, I've faced a lot of dangerous
Situations.
g*ns, road blocks.
Michie doesn't intimidate me and I don't trust him.
From what I get from cliff, he's not a stupid guy.
He appreciates and respects good game play.
I want to tell him about my power.
I can use it as leverage from avoid being put on the block.
I want to start off how proud I am of you and how you deserve
It.
In terms of our votes this weeks, it was an isolated issue
Rather than a long-term we have to get cliff back.
Fair enough.
I'm watching us crumble and who seems more of a threat to me
Now than others.
That's where I would be probably putting my focus.
Sure.
So brings me to I do have the third power.
It's the diamond power veto.
It's the big one.
It's the big one, yeah.
Basically turn the regular veto into the diamond power.
If I were to win the veto, I would take myself off and I
Would pick up somebody in my place.
If I don't win the veto, I put it in the hands of whoever does
Win the veto if I trust them enough.
I want you to either take it for what it is and so oh, great, she
Has the power or come up with a way that we can all utilize it.
It's of those things that is sort of like a scratch each
Other's backs.
Christie mentioning this is a gut punch.
I have to reevaluate who I'm putting up on the block because
Of that power, this is a game-changer.
I have to process all of this stuff and figure it out.
Absolutely.
With cliff in power, there's a lot of people running scared.
Nothing is as scary as what I saw the other day.
There's something stick can it on.
Always a film on cucumbers.
Nasty.
Week after week after week.
You know where I stand.
I have to get as many numbers as possible.
I don't know that I fully trust bella, but I don't feel like I
Have a lot of other choices right now.
Here's the deal.
I noticed the division yesterday.
There's six people that voted against me.
It's not vindictiveness.
It's the fear that if I don't do something, they're going to vote
Against megan.
Yeah.
I told nick, I said in the beginning, I wanted to work with
Him and you.
Doesn't seem like it does any good for me to bounce either
Of ya'll out of here.
You still have numbers.
Yeah.
There's big people.
And I'm thinking about them.
I know they're going to come back after me if they get a
Chance.
There's no reason for them to start picking at each other.
I want to work with you all still.
I don't know.
We can beat them.
If you're devious working with me, I don't care.
Thank you so much.
Hell of a day.
I'm cleaning the fridge.
I'm going to keep mine brief.
I respect your game.
I appreciate it.
Your play is incredible.
What you've done so far is remarkable.
I love your journey, love your story.
Love everything about it.
You're a man that stands for certain things.
I know that.
I trust your play, I trust your move.
Here's what worries me.
My move going forward, it would be easy to make me a target from
Some of ya'll on your side.
I don't know how to get around that.
Nobody wanted to talk to me last week.
Suddenly I win hoh, I'm the most popular guy in the house.
Yee-haw! It's obvious, too, me and
Zach aren't -- we're not like this and like that.
You're a respectable power player.
Like in every aspect.
I would love to see a version of this game where you and I get
To be on the same same.
I would.
I have not made my decision yet.
My fear is there's six people that voted against me.
It's a numbers thing.
Yeah.
Very few times that I think we can improve loyalty or
Improve sincerity.
I'm trying to develop a friendlier relationship with
Christie in order to keep her from using her power this week.
I hope you can sake this as a soon that I don't target you or
Anything.
I appreciate that.
I think we can do something together.
You're a man of integrity.
I know about it already.
I really respect you.
I wanted to talk to you one-on-one.
We're good.
I'm showing my faith.
We're good.
Thanks. Thanks, christie.
Hey, america.
Here's the cliff notes just for you.
There's people in this house that I think are feeling way to
Comfortable and way to c*ck.
We're about to see new people going up on the nomination
Block.
Hi, guys.
Time for the nomination ceremony.
Time for the nomination ceremony.
This is the nomination ceremony.
It is my responsibility as the head of household to nominate
Two house guests for eviction.
In my nomination block, I have a key to the house guests that I
Am nominating for eviction.
I will turn two keys to lock in my nomination and their faces
Will appear on the memory wall.
The first house guest I have nominated is --
The first house guest I have nominated is --
The next house guest I have nominated is --
The next house guest I have nominated is --
I have nominated you, jack and you, michie.
Mad respect to both of you.
Jack, you're a competition best.
You're a threat.
That's why that's been done.
Michie, I was banished day one by you.
You voted to send me out the door.
So it's purely a logical decision and I love both of you
Guys.
This nomination ceremony is adjourned.
So I got nominated.
That's what I saw what happening.
But sitting next to jack is not good.
This is a do-or-die moment.
I'm looking to win and cliff is now number on my hit lost.
I will be coming g*ns blazing.
This is not good for six shooters.
Cliff wasn't supposed to be here.
He wasn't supposed to win the hoh and he wasn't supposed to
Nominate me and my boy.
But I have a power.
I'm teamed up with people that have powers this their back
Pockets.
Cliff will regret this decision.
When I bring home this veto, the game begins and the line is
Drawn.
I can't wait to watch it burn.
This really sucks.
Michie volunteered himself as a pawn, which was expected.
But jack being up there wasn't supposed to go this way.
So the worst part is that michie is banking on me using my power
On him.
He assumes I'm going to but I don't know what I'm going to do.
I'm taking a huge chance that christie isn't going to use her
Power and I can get one of these alpha males out of the house.
Who will win the power of veto?
Will it be used to save jackson, jack or michie from eviction.
