03x10 - Episode 10

Post by bunniefuu »

NARRATOR: Previously on "Big Brother"--

JULIE: By a close vote of to ,

Tonya you are evicted from the "Big Brother" house.

NARRATOR: Chiara was devastated by Tonya's eviction.

She was the person I spent the most time with.

So it's going to get lonely.

NARRATOR: And when Josh realized that one of his former allies

had turned against him--

Lisa clearly voted to evict me.

NARRATOR: He moved closer to Amy and Jason.

NARRATOR: Roddy became the new head of household.

If there's dancing girls in here--

[laughter]

NARRATOR: Danielle was not happy.

Roddy is a huge threat to me.

He needs to go.

NARRATOR: While Gerry cut a deal--

If I keep you off, you owe me one?

You got it.

NARRATOR: --Lisa and Eric reached

a new level of intimacy.

If this were to end tomorrow, I'd

love to continue to see you.

I'm a guy, and she's a girl, and Adam and Eve,

and the birds and the bees, and all that stuff.

NARRATOR: And Marcellas developed a crush on Roddy.

Me and Roddy-- that would be the amazing romance!

NARRATOR: Then, as nominations approached,

Josh tried to convince Roddy to split up the girl power.

Just put the hammer down.

Put Lisa on the block, which will ensure that Kiki

will now stay within the group.

NARRATOR: But at the nomination ceremony,

Roddy had other plans.

I have nominated Amy and Marcellas.

NARRATOR: And though Roddy expressed

kind words for Marcellas--

I've put you up simply because I know

that you're a vote for Amy.

NARRATOR: --Marcellas took it hard.

How has this game gone?

Everybody puts up the decoy, and the decoy ends up leaving.

NARRATOR: Who will win the power of veto?

And will they go against Roddy to save

either Amy or Marcellas?

Find out tonight on "Big Brother ."

[music - theme, "big brother"]

I have nominated Amy and Marcellas.

I'd like to say it's Amy's time to go.

Marcellas, I've put you up simply because I know

that you're a vote for Amy.

I mean, it's all about Amy, isn't it?

I told you.

I knew.

I'm not stupid.

We're mad.

OK, here's the deal.

Now I expected this, OK?

Not going to say that I didn't.

However, I thought it was just so tacky to say, well,

Marcellas, I'm going to nominate you

because you're a vote for Amy.

Seriously, it's all about Amy.

It's just flat out we hate her.

We want her gone.

And then, I thought it was even more tacky for him

to come outside and say--

I'm sorry.

You kind of had a sense that something was going to happen.

Oh, yeah, obviously.

I don't know if I've made it sound too harsh.

But I'm just saying what I feel.

That deal about I didn't really get to know you,

and we didn't really get to hang out, blah, blah, blah.

When we did, it was great.

And you're a great person. We had fun.

But we didn't get to hang out that much.

Well, that was not my fault, thank you.

And I think everyone's aware of that.

I wish I'd got to know you, and I wish I could know you.

I made a very concentrated effort to be nice and hang

out with him or whatever.

And then, we started hanging out.

And then, you know, everything's cool, and we had fun.

And then Little Miss Thing got her panties in a wad

and started acting like the old trash bag that she is.

I'm sorry, guys.

I had to do something.

No, it's understandable.

Thanks, I appreciate you saying that.

Just realize how hurt I am to have do something like that.

[shuffling cards]

I'm going to go hide from the world

because I feel like [muted].

[laughter]

He has taken up with that girl.

[knocking on door]

Hi.

You did good.

No, you did what you needed to do.

He's like so selfish and manipulative

and monopolizing his time.

And trashy, meaning the key word, White Tr*sh.

But anyway, I'm not even getting into that.

I feel like a jerk.

Had to be done.

I mean--

I know, you got to vote someone each time.

The decision that Roddy made--

I did have some heads up about it.

I actually helped, probably, make the decision somewhat.

Amy was put up because of the soap opera

that's going on with Chiara.

That's it.

The one thing that Eric said that I did

say, I'm, like, Amy, it's your turn to go.

It's your time to go, or something like that.

It's just-- it kind of sounds like [muted],, but I mean,

it is.

And I also wanted to solidify without, like,

campaigning for Marcellas.

I wanted to solidify that that's the tone of the house,

you know?

I would say Roddy is definitely

one of the major players, schemers, if you will,

in the game.

Don't worry.

I'll talk to Marcellas.

Amy has been very--

she's taken this nomination personally,

and she's been very sad about it.

She seems to be defeated.

Amy!

Amy!

Amy!

Amy!

What?

Why do I have to walk through the house yelling Amy?

Unless there's my cheese, I don't go outside.

Come on.

Let's just go.

Take your cheese, and your cheese-eating nightmare,

and let's go.

I don't want him to see me eating the cheese.

That's not the best image I've ever seen of you.

One of my first comments to Amy was--

Amy, we really have to do this high end.

I know, Marcellas.

I don't want to turn against Amy.

I don't want this to be about what's wrong with Amy,

or me stabbing Amy in her back.

That is the most disgusting display I've ever seen.

Now bring your little a*s on.

I think I'm going to become Jason

and walk around with my Bible.

[laughter]

You need that to ward off the evil spirits in this b*tch.

[laughter]

I went over to Marcellas and Amy on the hammock

today because I wanted to show them that I cared about them,

and it was a difficult choice.

And I've been thinking about it.

It was important to me that they knew that I still

liked them and respected them.

Have I said I feel badly, guys?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Roddy, we can't make this feel better for you.

But you really need to go away from us.

[laughter]

[inaudible] I'm sorry.

I can't sit here and pretend like this is fine with me.

Because it's not fine with me.

Damn, Marcellas.

It's hard enough.

Let's not make it any easier.

You know that?

You had to put Tonya up.

You didn't want to do it.

I can't believe you forget so quickly.

You all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I just, like, I just don't like--

It just sucks that that had to contradict it.

Yeah, I just don't like doing that type of--

you know?

When you go over to say sorry to somebody and you

care about them.

And they act, like, a -year-old.

Like, the moment I walk away, they

both start cackling, laughing.

[laughter]

That just kills me.

That's good to laugh at, though.

The % doubt I had of putting Amy up goes out the window,

you know?

I mean, she's, like--

there's just a lot of sneaky backstabbing already.

Above and beyond, you know, how I feel about Amy,

I do think that Amy has made mistakes

within this game in this house.

The problem I have is that what happens during this game

and what's happened the past two times is that the decoy ends up

going out.

So it just seems like I'm on the block and I'm toast.

I truly believed that I would be gone on Thursday.

I was supposed to be the one gone first week.

Lori's gone.

Josh, as far as I was concerned, was supposed to be the one.

And he's still here.

He said that this whole thing was some bizarre set up.

And that he thought it was so important that Amy go.

I wouldn't trust Amy for five seconds.

I don't trust her.

She's a one way street.

She's probably not at a completely malicious person,

but in a situation like this, to not care about other people's

feelings says a lot.

I just don't believe that.

She's not the one who's, like, running around being evil.

That's why I think there has to be more to it than that.

There must be some veiled threat against me.

But what happens if your agenda is not truly that,

and your agenda is to get rid of me, because at the end,

you see me as a threat.

If you really think that, when you get out of here,

you'll see my tapes.

And everybody else will see that I lied to you,

and I've automatically made myself

ineligible to win the game.

Now if I get the video, I take Amy out?

Mhm.

And you'll go.

That's my feeling.

I am scared of the possibility of Marcellas

getting Amy off with the power of veto.

But it's a risk you have to take.

Marcellas, have I done anything to show you that I'm

not going to stick up for my word and be honest with you

about anything?

How can I trust and believe something

that Roddy says to me in earnest when Josh has been walking

around this week like he's got this free pass because Roddy

won't do anything to him?

He's so smart.

And he knows exactly which button

to push with each person.

Do you realize I truly care about you?

You do realize that?

You realize I care about you deeply, right?

Fine.

Say yes, you do acknowledge that.

My heart breaks doing this.

Do I want to believe, Roddy?

Desperately.

Do I believe Roddy?

No.

Do I think that I'm going to be the one who

walks out the door on Thursday?

Absolutely.

[inaudible] is here.

Already?

Free Subway every day for lunch.

I want provolone cheese, American cheese,

and cheddar cheese.

You know, that's not just one little piece of food.

That's a full lunch every day this week.

And after the poor peanut butter and jelly people

last week, they're so excited.

Sure as hell does better than peanut butter, doesn't it?

It certainly does.

[inaudible]

The bed in the map room, the most

luxurious bed that one could have without getting

the head of household.

I'm sleeping with Marcellas.

I'm over here.

Here, or you're there?

No.

No, I'm going to Kiki, yeah.

I know people are fearful of this bed, just because--

[eerie music playing]

[inaudible] the Lori, Tonya spot.

Oh, that' right!

That bed has been really bad.

That's the bed Lori slept in, she's gone.

And that's the bed Tonya slept in.

She's gone.

Now I'm sleeping in that bed, and I'm about to be gone.

It's like that bed is jinxed.

It's either you, or it's this position.

It's not me!

I don't think it's the bad.

I don't think it's the curse of the bed or the curse of me.

I think it's just by circumstance and just

by coincidence that it's happened like that.

Well, I ain't getting in this bed.

sh**t.

I didn't think of it that way.

Marcellas says, I'm going to get in the bed.

I'm, like, you go ahead.

You a fool, because Danielle is not getting in no bed.

I might believe in God, but I ain't no dummy.

I'm not getting in that bed.

sh**t, sleep on my cot.

[laughter]

Now if you go back and even look on the photograph all,

well, poor Marcellas's little shelf

has a black and white picture of Lori,

a black and white picture of Tonya,

and his beautiful smiling picture

right in the middle of them.

Actually, if you look closely, Lori, Marcellas, Tonya--

And they're all sleeping in the same position

of that cursed bed.

Why I ever got in that bed, I don't know.

It's crazy.

Not only am I alone on that shelf,

I'm sleeping in the same bed with Chiara.

And I get nominated again, and I'm looking at,

like, being black and white, nothing but a memory?

That is the side of death.

[inaudible]

Because I sleep on the other side of the bed.

That's the key.

If you want, put my picture up there.

[laughter]

If Marcellas is gone next week, so help me, God,

I am sleeping on the couch or the cot.

It's cute.

It is cute.

It is adorable.

Chi-whora has referred to herself as a wh*re

on several occasions.

I'm such a wh*re.

So that's what I call her, Chi-whora.

We should play porno password.

She tells all of these horrid stories.

So I put honey all over myself,

like, drench myself in honey.

[inaudible] come and want to, like, lick it off.

She seems more than willing to share every detail

of her personal life.

It's not even like I orgasm.

And they were so--

in my opinion, horrifying.

We all started making out.

Like, I was hooking up with my boyfriend.

She was hooking up with him.

And we end up having sex and then switched it up

and then I hooked up with--

Uh.

I've never streaked.

I've done it, like, six times.

Oh, my god.

[laughter]

It used to be, like, such a common thing for me.

I love to be naked and streaking.

It completely appalled me, and you know, at that point,

I realized that someone with any amount of self-respect would

never, ever have done that.

I don't agree with most of the things

that Amy says about Chiara.

And I do think that in some ways,

Amy puts these things out about Chiara

because she wanted Roddy.

At least, give me a little bit more credit.

The most obvious things are not true.

Obviously, wh*res aren't this obvious.

You know what I'm saying?

As for Chiara's sexuality talk and flaunting her sexuality,

it doesn't bother me at all.

Oh, that's so good.

Oh, my god!

Oh! Yeah!

She's a beautiful girl.

And yeah, people respond to it.

And she's in a game where it's very important.

But it also is entertainment.

So we're flushing.

I can't tell you.

Chiara is a very fun, free-spirited person.

She's not shy.

Oh, my god!

Chiara is sexy.

I think she does it more in a comical sense.

She's just having fun.

And yes, I am wearing underwear.

It's like I'm over here with pasties on my n*pples.

Being like, hey, Jay.

You know?

And that's what upsets me that that's

how small-minded people can be.

I don't think you're leaving.

I think there's some piece we're missing that we're too

close to see, some twist on it.

Veto.

If I get the veto and use it to spare you, then I'm done.

I have to get Josh to get the veto.

I told Marcellas if he decides to be a martyr

and take her out, [inaudible].

I can't expose myself as going against what

Roddy's plan is for the weak.

Amy does want me to win that power of veto competition

and use it to veto her out of that spot.

What do we do about this veto?

Do we try to win it, or we hope, maybe, Marcellas does?

Nah, win it. Just win it.

I'm going after it.

No reason why you shouldn't.

Just win it.

Marcellas, if I got the veto, I'd take you out.

That's really ha, ha, ha, you can't do it to us.

I'm going to get the veto.

I'm going to veto Amy.

I'm going to go out in a blaze of glory.

My strategy in playing this game

is to pick only one person.

So I gave one person my word that I will not turn on them,

and that's Jason.

And that's it.

That's all.

What's happening?

Oh, nothing.

I want to go to bed, but Kiki and Roddy are talking.

Early on in the game, Danielled and I

decided to align ourselves.

They're in the cabana room.

It's a secret.

Why?

Because people get nervous when they know there's alliances.

I trust Jason because of his faith.

My dad's a minister.

I've been brought up in the church.

Just don't mess with anyone that got God on their side.

Gin rummy?

Yeah.

We go to the bathroom area, the towel chairs,

and we play cards.

And then when somebody comes in, we

start throwing some things down, just

to cover it up a little bit.

Dude, I dealt. What are you talking about?

Oh, then I'll take it.

I'll take that.

No one has a clue.

Danielle and Jason are holding, holding.

Because we'll play soon, and when we do,

they better watch out--

simple as that.

[cards shuffling]

I don't know if they underestimate me.

I kind of show a little bit of myself.

But people underestimate him.

It allows Danielle to make some partnerships

and alliances.

And it allows me to make some things.

And to kind of find out what both sides are working on.

I think it's already like that.

It's done beautifully.

We don't hardly talk during the day.

Danielle just talks--

I do not understand your language.

She talks with her eyes.

I do.

Even today, when Lisa was around

and we were doing laundry, it was kind of the three of us.

It was cool.

We're talking.

We're cutting up and we're goofing around.

Then when it kind of came, just me and Danielle,

I moved away and kind of separated myself

and made it look, like, almost, I was a little uncomfortable

to be there and around her.

And she put a fabric softener in it.

Oh, thank you.

The thing that's great about Danielle

is she'll look at all options and all sides.

She's right on it, going but what happens in three weeks?

Roddy is here.

And he is in control of every single person in the house.

And I'm, like, wow.

I probably trust Jason as much as any human being

I've ever met in my life.

[whistling]

There's almost no chance that Jason is playing the game

and he's really not the person he's showing.

And if it is, I would be so in awe of him

for pulling that over on us.

I know at some point I'm going to have to do something that I

feel really terrible about.

I'm going to have to tell somebody one thing

and do something else.

It's going to be great.

It's going to be poetry.

[laughter]

If I don't win the G's, I want him to have it.

Jason is my boy, and I'm going to make it to the end with him.

-

Let's go talk.

Yesterday on the hammock I was this total loser girl,

and I was just saying that I was having feelings about Roddy.

It's been five years since I have

felt something towards someone.

And this is what you're feeling towards Roddy?

Yeah.

With Roddy, it's not a crush.

I'll tell you that.

I truly, truly am starting to really, really care for him.

Let's see he's ridiculously good-looking.

He's perfect height, nice behind,

he believes in family values, strong family values.

He's perfect!

[laughter]

I was afraid you were gonna say that.

God dammit.

You're falling for him, Chiara.

[laughter]

I didn't want this to happen.

Yeah, I was pretty surprised to think

that Kiki was serious about Roddy, out of the hammock.

Because she seems to me like a very strong girl,

a girl that wouldn't get wrapped up that quickly.

So how great does Chiara Mancuso sound?

[laughter]

It does?

It does.

Kiki was mentioning that Roddy would be a great father.

I can see Roddy being an amazing father.

I mean, I haven't thought about it at all.

[laughter]

Talking about, like, their children's names.

I love Mancuso.

[laughter]

You had me at hello.

Girly stuff.

[laughter]

I'm such a dork right now, and everyone knows it.

She's really fallen hard for him.

I hope to God, I pray, that he is feeling

the same thing that she is.

Why do I have to meet you here?

Why do I have to meet this type of person here?

I think it makes it a lot more interesting.

It totally makes it all the more interesting.

I hope that Roddy and I's relationship

continues outside the house.

I mean, just everything right now just seems perfect.

[rock music playing]

[group chatter]

NARRATOR: Which HouseGuest would you

like to see host a private gourmet dinner

with the date of their choice?

It would be interesting to see who

America wants to have a cute little dinner with somebody.

[cheering]

I wanted to kind of draw it out

and be, like, OK, Roddy, Eric, what are

you guys going to do for me?

But then, you know, why bother?

Because everybody knows I'm bringing Amy.

[applause]

Let's go!

[laughter]

[applause]

Yippee!

Oh, my god!

Yay!

I thought America would hate me.

[laughter]

They love you, Marcy!

[laughter]

Oh!

Look at the diary room!

How cute is this.

Oh, look at all the oysters.

Yippee.

Oh, my god, Marcellas.

[inaudible]

Oh, my god.

[inaudible]

I love scallops.

Oh, my.

That's a pretty plate.

Mhm.

We really enjoyed gossiping and talking about everybody.

Roddy would go on fishing trips to Alaska.

Gerry-- he's sucking up so hard right now.

Chiara's a wh*re.

Roddy is stabbing everybody in the back.

Set up.

It hurt my feelings that Roddy nominated me.

And it hurt my feelings that he said the things

that he said about me.

You know, he didn't have to come out

and paint me to be the biggest b*tch on the planet.

So let's talk about something other than this g*ng.

OK.

I really think I'm going back to school

when I'm done with this.

I don't know what I want.

That's the thing.

I take that back.

I do.

I want a normal--

just a normal little relationship.

But I've never had it.

I never did before, because I was always priding

myself on being single, independent, you know,

I don't need anybody.

I don't need people.

When you talk to Amy, you're not talking to Amy.

Amy is talking to you.

And it's one-sided.

Marcellas is a wonderful date.

I think I'm just going to start dating g*y men from now on.

Because g*y men know how to please a girl.

I'm just so happy that I met you.

You know?

I'm so happy that I met you, too.

You're definitely someone that I

will always keep in touch with and you

will be my friend for life.

Dinner was, like, bittersweet for me.

Because it's sad because Amy may be leaving,

or I may be leaving.

So it was sad.

I do a lot of thinking in bed.

And Marcellas thinks, too.

So I turned to Marcellas, and I said, I know

we want to get rid of Jerry.

And I know we want to get rid of Josh.

I said we need to keep Gerry and Josh, which makes it to

to break up the couples.

Come in here, Jason.

Yes, sir.

Once we get rid of one of them,

then we outnumber, and then we can start playing the game.

Yeah, absolutely.

Let's go for it.

It's a beautiful day in the "Big Brother" house.

Then I think the strongest woman in this house

will make it to the end and win.

We'll see, Chiara.

I know our chances are very slim.

We have to keep this girl bond strong.

Because right now, we're almost three women down.

And it's not a safe place for us to be.

And we're going to have to really,

really fight hard, Chiara.

We will.

We will.

Right now about the game, the girls come first.

When it comes to my life and my happiness, Roddy comes first.

Girls are dwindling here, and it's a little scary for us.

There's an understanding between the two of us

that at the end of the day, there only can be one winner.

So you know, you have to play.

And Roddy will not be affected by this.

Right now, it's about making sure us girls stay together.

I don't think the guys are going to suspect

it for a long, long time.

I really do think that if it did come down

to boys versus girls that the guys would work together a hell

of a lot better than the girls.

Any and all the blowouts or arguments

or situations that have happened in this house

came from the girls.

Come on!

Right now.

Who's the spokesperson?

Who started it?

They tend to overreact with a lack of information.

Sorry.

Amy, if you got something to say to me, say it to my face.

- I didn't say anything! - You're talking behind my back.

I haven't talked behind your back.

I didn't say a word!

Just so you know--

Ask anybody!

I'm not one to screw with.

They tend to be a little more emotional than guys.

That b*tch.

Given the girls that are in the house right now,

it's impossible for them to work together.

Whoo.

I think they're playing more than people sometimes give

them credit for, Lisa and Kiki.

I think any time that I'm on the nomination block,

I don't know that I can trust these girls

to vote the right way.

I know how that girl strung me along all week telling me she

was supporting me.

- Who? - Lisa.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So at that point I figured, you know what?

If that's the game they want to play,

if they're going to show their hand in week two,

why are we going to wait till week six

and reward people for dissension?

Yeah.

And that's the way I look at it.

Yeah.

If the two girls weren't such idiots

and weren't so worried about numbers and being outnumbered,

this wouldn't be a problem.

If they would have just done what they were told,

they wouldn't be in this predicament right now.

They're complete morons.

They're idiots.

They do not see the big picture.

They're just looking-- oh, my god, these two of us,

and there's more of them.

Oh, we got to get rid of them.

We've got to even it out.

[laughter]

Aw.

Amy?

Coming.

[whistles]

Should I put sneakers on?

What's the story, morning glory?

Today's the day of the veto competition.

Oh.

What is that?

Wow.

We got everybody?

Yeah.

Welcome to Pool Sharks, this week's veto competition.

[applause] - All right.

OK.

All right.

All right, veto!

In this game, you must not only

keep your head above water, but try to keep it out of the pool

altogether.

The object of the game is to knock

the person you do not wish to have the power of veto

into the pool.

Each of you will have one shot per round.

You must strike the other HouseGuest's ball

with the cue ball.

Before each shot, you must name the fellow HouseGuest

you are aiming for.

You may not knock your own ball in the pool.

The player whose ball is last on the table

will win the power of veto.

If I win the veto, I'm definitely

going to veto Marcellas, just because that's how I am.

But my ideal would be for Josh to win

the veto, because I feel pretty confident that he

would take me out.

So who's going to end up all wet?

We'll find out which one of us are predators

and which the prey when we play Pool

Sharks for the power of veto.

[applause]

We had to choose between your legs, the old-fashioned swing.

[background conversations]

[ball clicking ba*ls]

It was nice to just hit people, uh huh.

Roddy?

Nice.

Whoa.

Nice, Roddy.

My biggest concern was that Josh may win the power of veto.

Because you don't know what he's going to do.

I'll go for Joshie.

[laughter]

Going through this competition,

I did not want the power of veto because I didn't want

to have to deal with Amy for a couple of days,

knowing that I would not use it.

I'm not about to expose myself.

I'm going to try to a cushion shot here to get Roddy.

Gerald.

[thwack]

[laughter]

Great job, [inaudible].

- Ew! - Roddy!

Oh!

[applause]

These bumpers are not regulation.

I'm going with Jason.

I did not want the power of veto.

The first ball to go in was me, and it was a good feeling.

It kind of put me out of the worry zone.

They bricked this up over here.

Joshie.

[thud]

Good job.

Good job.

Marcellas.

Oh, I love it.

Stop!

We'll take the Amster out of this one here.

[clacking]

Nice shot.

Dude.

[applause]

I got yous right here, baby.

Hey, Roddy, how's it going?

It was just a perfect set up Roddy's ball was in position.

[applause]

Lisa?

Hitting.

Lisa did ask me to try to get her out.

- Thanks, Josh. - Nice shot.

Nice. [applause]

Nice shot, Josh.

Eric wanted it bad enough, and nobody

was going after his ball.

Kiki?

Kiki.

Dani.

Eric's ball stayed in the corner quite a bit.

I think there was a deliberate avoidance of his ball

as much as possible.

Come on, ball.

Nice.

Nice.

Oh, god, Josh.

Danielle?

- Good job. - Yay!

[applause]

Yay, finally.

Put an X by my name, por favor.

Come on, Lisa.

[applause]

Josh.

Josh.

Marcellas.

[applause]

[inaudible]

I decided to play defensively and sh**t Chiara's

ball back into the game of play where

nobody could eliminate her.

Wow. You beware.

Wow.

All right.

I'm going to try for Gerry.

[applause]

When I looked and saw that there was three ba*ls

left, Eric, myself, and Marcellas,

I kind of got a little worried.

Because I'm thinking to myself-- is everyone not thinking

about the possibility of Marcellas

being given the power of veto could do?

Marcellas.

I didn't want Marcellas to win because if he decided to do Amy

a favor and take her off the block,

I would have had a very tough choice putting somebody new up

in her place. - Eric.

Marcellas.

Yeah.

I was hoping in a way Marcellas would win.

Even if he chose not to do anything,

he would at least make a statement out of it.

Aw, close.

Very nice, very nice.

Marcellas.

Nice.

Good job, Kiki.

[applause]

I want to wear that medal.

Chiandra.

Eric.

Chiara.

[thud] - Oh.

Nice.

[inaudible]

Oh!

That'd have been the shot of the century.

Oh.

That was a nice shot, Josh.

[applause] Let's go.

Let's go, eMan.

[applause] Let's go. Leap high!

Hey, hey, hey.

[whistles]

You can do it.

[IN UNISON] You can do it!

[applause]

You can do it.

[IN ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER VOICE] It's not a tumor.

Sh.

- [inaudible] - Oh!

Oh.

Aw.

Whoo!

The power of veto goes to eMan, Eric!

Yay!

[applause]

My hope is that he would abstain from using that power.

It's difficult enough to put two people up for nomination.

And to put a third up could really make some enemies.

And it's also heartbreaking.

It's difficult to do.

At this point, I'm really not sure what I'm going

to do with the power of veto.

And we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

You're really worried about this whole word thing,

aren't you?

Yeah.

I mean, just now Josh asked why did you save Kiki at the end?

I'm, like, what?

Why wouldn't I?

I'm, like, because there was three people, one of which

I wanted out.

Why wouldn't I save one of them.

Oh, no.

He's, like, you know, just because it'd

be more fun to watch.

What?

Weird man, weird.

We said we could do this.

He said, we could do that.

You know, I don't know what you guys talked about--

whatever you guys talked--

I'm, like, what?

Do I care who you--

am I going to go ask him [inaudible]

talking about those dopes with?

He can't stop playing the game.

He will not stop for a moment.

These are reasons why I will have no qualms about axing him.

[jazz music playing]

Thank you.

Here's the deal.

I feel as though I owe you some sort of an explanation.

I'm really not a horrible person.

I never said you were.

I know that.

But I know you think I'm, like, a really selfish person.

And so it's, like, almost like I feel

as though I owe some explanation for the reason behind that.

I was born two months premature.

I almost died.

My pediatrician and my grandmother

thought that I was the most precious thing

to ever be put on this Earth.

And they made me feel as though I was completely

superior to everyone.

And I didn't--

I mean, I had no idea, you know?

I was born into this.

I didn't know any better.

And then as I grew up, I was completely oblivious to

the fact that I had no friends.

I'm a very hard person to get to know.

That's just because I've really been stomped on.

I was the ugliest child ever, as a child.

Ugly duckling, then, Am.

That's not the case at all.

But I was.

I was so ugly.

And I never understood.

No one ever liked me, and I could never figure it out.

I did kind of go off.

But it wasn't really towards you.

That's all right.

I mean, so just realize it--

It hurt my feelings.

Because you're the person that nominated me.

You got to realize, though, that my feelings were hurt.

I know.

I know, and I understand that.

And Ams, I wanted to go to bat for you like no other.

And you have a super sense of humor,

and you're a hell of a lot brighter than you show.

You know what I mean? - Yeah.

I am heartbroken.

And that's why I wanted to talk to you about it.

I don't want you to think that I have any personal vendetta.

You learned a huge lesson.

And it's over, and I wish I could take it back.

Amy, I'm so glad we talked.

I am, too.

Josh felt nervous about power of veto.

And I think that he has reason to.

More than anything, I just don't want to be put up.

He's given everybody reasons not to trust him.

I'm not fooling anyone in this house.

I haven't tried to.

My strategy was to be what I say I'm saying.

What I'm doing is what I said I was going to do.

I mean, that's my key thing I'm looking to do--

survive for at least two more weeks.

And anything could have happened this week.

You guys, we got to come on inside.

I was praying, hoping against hope,

that he would do something truly courageous, like veto me.

All right.

As everybody knows, this is the veto meeting.

My friend Marcellas and my friend Amy

have been nominated for eviction this week.

And I have the power to veto one of them off the chopping block

and save them from eviction.

So what I'm going to do is give each of them

a chance to give me a reason why they feel they should be saved.

And of course, we'll start with ladies first.

So Amy?

You can go right ahead.

[fake sobbing and begging]

[laughter]

[inaudible].

No, you know, I'm sure your decision's already made.

So Marcellas, go ahead, honey.

Marcellas didn't choose to say anything.

Fair enough.

Believe it or not, I have given this

a tremendous amount of thought.

I have decided not to use the power of veto.

And the reasoning behind that is in my own personal interest.

I believe that if things are left the same,

that will benefit me.

Obviously, you feel a little bad looking over at the nominees.

But I'm still here.

So how bad can I feel?

Again, nothing personal.

I love you both.

I did what I did to protect Roddy

and Roddy's best interest-- because I

know Roddy would protect mine.

I was relieved when he did officially

abstain from using it.

I'm going to take this off.

Put it in the box, close it.

It's very emotional for me.

Because knowing that I did this to myself.

I am the reason that I was nominated this week,

my behavior.

These people give their words, and they smile in your face.

And they stab you in the back a million times a day.

Yes, I'm nervous about the impending eviction.

I don't want to go.

I want to win.

Right now, you're not playing the game, though.

I haven't played the game from the time

I walked in this house.

I know.

But you have to decide if you want to play the game.

The way to counter that is to keep them closer, not farther.

Don't continue to alienate yourself from them.

Maybe if Amy had played the game better, if she hadn't been

so about drinking and so about me, me, me, me, me,

maybe I wouldn't be where I am, and she

wouldn't be where she is.

It's a bad pun.

But I guess I made my bed.

I got to lie in it.

I knew that Amy was a liability.

And I just fell in love with her.

But in this house, you can't have strong relationships.

It's not fair.

Everybody puts up the decoy, and the decoy ends up leaving.

Dead man walking, I'm toast, Amy.

I'm toast.

[laughter]

Dead couple walking!
