Finale Night: Adam vs. Porsche vs. Rachel
September 14

So here's what you missed on Big Brother. Two models, a rock star, a helplessly desperate single man, an outdoorsy mom, a writer, a cocktail waitress, and... this guy... lodged in a soundstage in Southern California fashioned to look like a house, not knowing that they're actually going to play in teams AND against six returning contestants... of which one left prematurely. The twist put five people on the fast track to the jury house, but a surprise would put a previously-exiled player BACK in the house. That person got back into the game, much to the chagrin of... this guy... Then a war between newbies and veterans would put a two celebrities and a celebrity-in-his-own-head into varying positions of influence into the day to day actions, which led us to the rocker, the cocktail waitress, and the crying chick with the zit on her face in the final three. Did we mention a Zingbot going to Comic-Con and a busted fortune teller? Because that's important. And that's what you missed... on Big Brother. *GLEE!*

It is now... DAY 75. Time to determine the final HOH, reunite the fallen, and crown a grand champion of this year's "Big Brother".

HOH COMPETITION #12: Stage 1 - Big Brother Mixer

You'll need the perfect blend of strength and stamina. Last one standing wins and automatically passes through to the final stage...

Porsche has a final two deal with Rachel. But can she be trusted?

After nearly 30 minutes... Adam drops out, wanting to conserve whatever strength he has left for the next round. Over 15 minutes later... Porsche drops out, giving Rachel the hot route to the final round.

And Porsche's stuck.

HOH COMPETITION #12: Stage 2 - Underwater Maze

Remembering the correct order of HOHs in the game? Easy? Doing it underwater for time? Not so much. Fastest takes on Rachel for the final HOH.

The order: Rachel, Jordan, Rachel, Daniele, Kalia, Daniele, Jeff, Kalia, Porsche, Rachel, Adam, Rachel.

Adam would know the correct order. He's been bouncing around like crazy trying to kiss booty to each and every one. The downside? He takes his goggles off and throws them to the side in order to finish. Big mistake.

Turns out to be a better-than-two-minute mistake, as Porsche wins, 3:50 to 6:03.

And now, for the final time this season... ATTENTION HOUSEGUESTS, YOU ARE LIVE ON CBS, PLEASE DO NOT SWEAR.

HOH COMPETITION #12: Stage 3 - Fallen Comrades

Brendon said, "The moment in the house that I'm afraid to have my friends and family see is..."
a) "...the moment I was evicted the second time."
b) "...not doing better in endurance competitions."

CORRECT: A (Still at zero)

Damn it, what'd I just say... NO SWEARING!

Daniele said, "The most shocking moment in the house was when..."
a) "...America voted Brendon back into the game"
b) "...I found out my dad would not be returning to the game"

CORRECT: B (Rachel leads, 1-0)

Shelly said, "The fatal error I made in the house was..."
a) "...turning against Jeff & Jordan"
b) "...voting to evict Jeff one week too soon"

CORRECT: B (Rachel leads, 1-0)

Jeff said, "The best thing about being in the house was..."

a) "...getting to spend the Summer with Jordan"
b) "...getting rid of Daniele"

CORRECT: A (Rachel STILL leads, 1-0)

Kalia said, "The biggest lie told in the house this season was..."

a) "...that Adam was loyal to the newbies"
b) "...anything that came out of Shelly's mouth"

CORRECT: B (RACHEL WINS, 2-0)

And she will only have ONE thing to do tonight: choose who to evict.

... as soon as she stops crying.

EVICTION VOTE #12

A half-million dollar decision coming... eventually.

By Rachel's vote... ADAM POCH... WILL NOT BE COMPETING FOR $500,000.

THE FINAL JUDGMENT

Brendon asks why Rachel should be rewarded for saying hurtful things. She said she should be awarded based on gameplay. Jordan wants to know what Porsche did to deserve a million. She decided to play a social game. Kalia asks Rachel the same question. She says that she played the hardest and won the most. Shelly asks Porsche when she started to play the game for real... Week one, when she turned her ally Keith on the house.

Final arguments. Rachel says that she was one of the biggest targets in the game. She had to either win or be on the block. She played her heart out, even to the point of exposure. She made strategic decisions and played a social game. Porsche said that everyone in the jury voted for her week one. She said that she was here to compete respectfully. Hopefully she was able to do just that.

Okay, the vote to win is FOUR. But first.. Heh... Time for the others to face the music... and the first five houseguests to exit the house.

Okay, it's time for moment-of-truth time. Never mind the power. Never mind the false titles. This is for money. Loser gets $50K. Winner gets $500K.

Brendon: RACHEL

Altogether now... DUH.

Daniele: PORSCHE
Jeff: RACHEL
Shelly: RACHEL
Kalia: PORSCHE
Jordan: RACHEL!

And by a vote of 4-3, RACHEL REILLY IS THE WINNER OF THIS YEAR'S BIG BROTHER! She gets $500,000... Porsche Briggs, a tenth of that.

Now one more prize needs to be addressed, America's Favorite Houseguest. Damn it Rachel, stop cussin'!

America has been voting online and over the SMS all week, and we have a winner. And the winner... JEFF SCHROEDER! That's $25,000!

Congratulations! You made it to the end! Now maybe you want to do something crazy with your summer and PLAY the game. Go to CBS.com/bigbrother for more information.
