Finale
Night It's been one wild summer, to say the least. We started with four cliques, threw a few wrenches into some plans, threw a microphone into a pool, and 73 days later, we arrive with one waitress from North Carolina against one graphic designer from California... against one tae kwon do champion from Arizona. In two hours, one of them will be half a million dollars richer. As we flash back, we reveal the final matchup: Jordan versus Kevin. Natalie is not in the equation. Kevin feels confident that he'll be taken to the final two. Natalie's only focus is to stay in their head. She hopes that either one of them will take her. Natalie's beginning to sense that Kevin might not take her to the end. In the end, she has a lot of friends on the jury. "Natalie, please go to the Diary Room." And while Natalie's there, Jordan and Kevin discuss. Kevin says that he'd pick Jordan to be in the final 2. Jordan keeps telling Kevin that he's a surefire final 2. But she'd rather take Natalie. While Kevin lies on the hammock, Natalie says that she hopes that Jordan keeps in contact with her. Jordan starts right now by telling Natalie everything Kevin told her. Kevin questions his plan to keep Jordan. Natalie says that he has two guaranteed votes: Lydia and Michele. Kevin feels like that he is playing for second, even though he's won more than the others. Going live to the living room for a moment, Kevin says that Big Brother has taught him to have a little more confidence in himself. Natalie says she'll miss 12 other people. Jordan says that this was a learning experience in patience and independence. Meanwhile, in the jury, Michele arrives with new information of Natalie's proposal. Jury after seeing the sequester reel decide... you know what, I'll vote for Julie's baby to win BB11 before I vote for Natalie. They convene for a final debate on who should win the big prize. The three are not strong players, but they took backroads to the final three. Kevin & Natalie played a lot better than Jordan, but Jordan made all the right moves. Jordan's the nicest girl in the house, but her power play move: attaching herself to Jeff. As for Natalie... she's a little sister, but within that, she thought she was better off losing everything and attaching herself to the biggest targets of the week. She didn't do anything to deserve the position she was put in. And Michele... is just bitter. FINAL HOH COMPETITION: Part 3: BBESP You have to predict how your jury will respond to any given question. Most points wins. 1) Jessie says, "The best thing about
being in the house was..." Kevin: A Kevin: A 5) Michele said, "The houseguest I think
needs a reality check most is..." TIE) Including tiebreaker votes, how many total votes to evict have been cast so far this season? Kevin: 80 The actual retail price.... is... 51! Jordan is the final HOH and will compete for $500,000! The question now... who will she take with her to the final vote? Natalie's case... basically, she says that she stayed true and loyal to her, and that she's grateful for her friendship. Kevin just begs to keep him in the house, saying that they never went after each other. Jordan's final vote... is... KEVIN. Jordan made a smart move; in not picking Kevin, she might've just won herself Big Brother. At this point, he has no regrets. Kevin leaves with $10,626. Most important in determining who wins this game: who actually played the game. So it'll be Natalie vs. Jordan in the final vote. But first, the jury will have one last chance to address the final two. Russell starts... Jordan, what was your strategy before you came into the house and how did it change? Jordan said that she was going to lay low and not trust anyone. Then she started trusting everyone, and then the fights began. So she wanted to be herself and see how far that got her. Lydia asks who Natalie thought was the biggest threat. Lydia, because she had a strong alliance with Jessie. Jeff asks other than aligning with him, what was Jordan's best move? Getting rid of Kevin, because he got rid of Jeff. Michele's question: "Were you hoping that your engagement news would sway the jury?" Natalie says that she did get engaged, because she was very proud of it. Jessie's question: "Why does Jordan deserve to beat Natalie?" Everyone thought that she wasn't a strong competitor. But in the end, she didn't need anyone to get her where she was. Russell has one more question: Why does Natalie deserve to win? Her strategy was to align herself to strong players. By aligning herself with others, she put herself in a good position to win the game. And Kevin has one more question.... "Jordan, can you tell me what did you do better than Natalie?" She laid low and was honest with her alliances. She's proven herself. She made moves to further herself. Closing arguments from the finalists... Jordan: "Coming in Big Brother, I didn't know what to expect. I just wanted to stay true to my alliances. I wanted to be the harmless person. I wanted to lay under the radar. I'm very proud of myself even if I win or not. I won an HOH and a Veto and the two final rounds and I did it on my own. It shows that I'm a better competitor. Nothing was ever personal." Natalie: "I may have not won a lot of competitions, but I felt like I didn't need to. He put me and my best friends against each other in this house. I was making decisions and I stayed true to my alliances. I never betrayed a single one of them. I was so loyal to my alliances that I made myself a target. I think I got vengeance for the people I was aligned to." And after 73 days... it all comes down to this. Remember, you are voting for a winner, the person you want to see win $500,000. The votes are locked and the decision is final. And now that that's out of the way, Braden, Laura, Ronnie, and Casey are back to expose lies and settle scores. First up, the "Square Root of All Evil". What shocked him the most... Natalie lying about everything. First of all.. Natalie's not 18. She's 24. Next, Casey said that the biggest mistake was from Jeff, the whole Kevin/Natalie coming after Russell bit. Braden was surprised about how "big pimpin'" Jessie was, "doin' it right". But the topic of the night... Chima. Laura was hurt about how Chima threw away the opportunity to be on the show. She thought it was offensive. Ronnie's statement to Michele came from that morning... and it's not even close to true. He does apologize that. So much for being the Square Root of All Evil. Jessie and Lydia were "platonic" in the house... not according to Websters or the camera. And where does the Jeff/Jordan relationship go from here? "We'll see if she wins or not." DAMN! The kicker.. she agrees. And finally... the results. Remember, the winner gets $500,000, and the runner-up gets $50,000. The vote to win is four. America: JORDAN, after 11 million votes
cast By a final vote of 5-2, JORDAN LLOYD wins Big Brother! She wins $500,000, for a final total of $501,726... and we have confetti! Natalie goes home with $51,904. And as for America's vote for your favorite houseguest? All summer long you've been voting at CBS.com... Wasn't even close. Jeff Schroeder, come and get your prize, brother. You get the $25,000, a final total of $28,181. And so another round of Big Brother has come to an end, 73 days, 10 evictions, and one expulsion later. The house is empty for now, but you can move in if you want. Go to CBS.com/bigbrother for more information. But for now... They lived... You watched. Good night, America!
