[dramatic music playing]
I can't play the game like I've had to play the game anymore.
I'm incredibly relieved to be free from being the millionaire.
I'm doing this because
I can at least say I played an honest game from the moment I could.
Um…
I'm just gonna come out with it because I'm sick of lying. It was me.
-I told you guys. -[Sydnee] Knew it.
[Sam] I've been calling things. I've been saying things.
It's like this… [chittering] this little mouse is in the corner.
[mock squealing]
But I feel vindicated.
Finally. [whooshing sounds]
[blubbering] It was so hard, and I hated it.
It's okay. It's okay. Take a deep breath. It's okay.
Here comes all the sappy shit.
[Lauren] I can't do it anymore.
I trusted that girl.
Now that it's not mine, I don't want to lie at all.
Things I said were genuine, and the person I am is genuine.
But you guys do realize we can be genuine and play the game, right?
-Which I did. -Yeah, and you were.
-Right. So… -[Cara] Yeah.
I'm enjoying my pear and whipped cream,
and Lauren is sharing this news about how she was the millionaire
and it was so hard for her and all these things.
And I'm kind of irritated.
I don't have tears. I don't have sympathy for her.
You've been lying.
Well, right now is the only time there's not a millionaire here right now.
I do have to… I have to brag a little bit. I pulled some fast ones on you guys.
-Tell us. -[Cara] Tell us what.
-[Chris] Tell us? -What was the smash hit?
I had to name five song titles.
I was given the option of either
canceling out three votes or moving the money.
-[Lydia] You knew it was a song. -So wait, what was the first one?
I'm learning a thing or two. I'm not gonna tell you everything.
Like, I'm learning. I'm learning.
I can't tell all of it, because I'm like, I want an advantage.
I know what it looks like.
Okay, I'm taking pride in the fact that I didn't…
I lied to a lot of you, but I also just gave you valuable information.
Lauren, you just lied to us straight to our faces for days now.
So I'm eerie of her.
I'm not gonna be playing just the nicey-nice part right now.
For me and my strategy, Lauren put a target on her back.
She has an advantage compared to everybody else right now.
She has to go home.
So are we cool?
-Yeah. -Yes.
[suspenseful music playing]
[theme music playing]
-[lock clinks] -[music ends]
[somber music playing]
[harp glissando plays]
[intercom chimes]
Hello, guests.
Your breakfast awaits you in the chandelier room.
-It's good. Looks good. -[Lydia] This looks good. Yes.
[Peter] Enjoy your breakfast while the staff delivers your boxes
and a new person chosen at random becomes the millionaire.
-Good morning, guys. -[Phil] Good morning.
[Sydnee] Look how cute this is out here.
-[Cara] Good morning, guys. -[Sydnee] Good morning, everyone.
[Chris] How'd everyone sleep?
[Kyle] I slept good because there's no millionaire right now.
So I didn't have to worry too much, but also bad because
the money's going to someone new.
[Chris] In a lot of ways, the game is in the same place
that it was when we got here,
but all it cost was Harry and Se Young's position in the house.
But I do think that what I was observing as the millionaire
is that some ideas steamroll or take precedence.
-[Chris] Yes. -Yes.
[Lauren] And what I was noticing was the people
that were taking into account a lot of different opinions, you were right.
It's just important that we keep that perspective moving forward
because every single person has eyes and ears,
and they're catching things.
[Sam] I feel terrible that I didn't speak up for Se Young,
but that ship was going down, and there was nothing I could do
because I knew who it was, and no one listened.
At this point, I trust Lydia,
I trust Kyle, and I trust Cara.
And that's who I want to be hunting with.
-Oh, good morning. -[Chris] Oh boy.
-Good morning. -Just who we wanted to see.
-[Jaimi] Yeah. -Good morning, everybody.
Did anybody own up to being the millionaire?
-[Cara] Lauren. -Lauren.
I waited till you were gone. I needed my moment.
-[laughs] -Oh, you missed it.
How do you feel about Lauren lying to you for these past few days?
[sighs] I wasn't gonna say anything. I'm gonna be really honest on this.
Mm! [inhales sharply] My mouth.
In my mind, you are a very dangerous player right now.
You know the advantages the millionaire gets.
You did complete a mission you don't feel comfortable sharing,
which is totally fine. I respect that.
But now we're starting from scratch, trying to re-find a brand-new person
while keeping a dangerous player in the game.
It's not at all surprising you say that
because you know that you and I have no connection.
[dramatic sting]
I see Sydnee types a lot, and she triggers and threatens me.
But the people that are the loudest
are not necessarily the smartest.
I'm not gonna be afraid of you.
This is a game of intuition, deceit, and observation.
And now you understand how many layers have been played
in our devilish game.
Please now head to your rooms to find out which one of you is the new millionaire.
I congratulate all of you in advance.
[unsettling music playing]
[exhales sharply]
The goal ain't to have a million on some random day.
The goal is to have the million on the last day, to the last moment,
because it's… it's too early right now.
[groans]
Might as well get this over with.
I don't want to be the millionaire at this point in the game.
It's too long to keep up the lie.
[exhales sharply] All right, here we go.
Up until this point, I've been on the fence, like, you know,
I think it might be better to not have the money right now.
But, you know, seeing how much power the millionaire actually has,
I'm almost kind of thinking I want the money right now.
[suspenseful music playing]
[exhales sharply]
[exhales] Okay.
[softly] Oh, thank God.
[whispering] Oh my God.
[exhales sharply]
[Phil] Damn!
Who did I do dirty in their afterlife for this to be given to me now?
I wanted it at the end, the only time that it… that it really matters.
[knocking on door]
[door closes]
Hello.
Peter… the man of the hour.
Hi, new millionaire.
[chuckling]
How does it feel to be this close to that many unmarked bills?
[Phil] It's nerve-racking.
It's cute to look at,
but ultimately I'd rather have it on the last day than now.
When you leave this room, everyone will be hunting you.
But you'll also have a chance to gain power
by completing a secret agenda.
[chuckles]
If you're able to get three people to say "no" to the question,
"Do you believe me?" you cancel out three votes.
If you fail, you will start with one vote against you at the elimination dinner.
What do you think?
The strategy is, who would I engage with in that manner
while still not drawing suspicions?
Do you wanna practice with me?
-No. -No?
No. I'm, you know, in the moment.
-Okay. -I got to feel it. I got to feel it.
-Yeah. -So yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[dramatic whoosh]
The skill set of me being a professor and a therapist is to observe, to listen.
So I'm going to be looking out for the opportunity
for me to attempt that agenda.
Good luck, new millionaire.
[Phil chuckling]
For me not to appear suspicious,
I need to continue to behave how I've been.
[rock and roll music playing]
[Lauren] Oh, wow.
-[Corey] That's dope. -[Lauren] I did what needed to be done.
And now I get to be actually using what I think is my better skill set
and catching the millionaire.
-[Cara] Yeah. -[Sydnee] Breathtaking.
[Phil] Hey. Hey, I smell calories.
I'm pondering different ways to complete that agenda.
I want it to be as authentic as possible.
This will make me feel a whole lot better.
I need this for me.
[music continues]
Don't mind if I do.
I don't think I've ever had a fancy lunch overlooking the lake.
-I didn't have shit in my box. -[Cara] I didn't have anything either.
-No card. -[Kyle] Mine was empty.
-Will you pass the questioning? -[Corey] I didn't know how to act.
-[Jaimi] I did. -I wanted something. I got nothing.
[tense music playing]
[Lauren] I remember the feeling
of opening the box with a million dollars in there.
You can't hide that fear,
and I hone right in on Sydnee
because I've noticed that Sydnee hasn't said anything.
She's doing a lot more watching.
Noted.
And my gut's telling me, "Just keep watching."
I still don't… What was your advantage for the first challenge?
[Sydnee] She didn't tell us.
I… I'm trying to decide if I want to share everything.
What's the point of all that work if I don't have something out of it?
But what… what's the point of not sharing?
[Cara] She has a game to play too.
-[Sam] Yeah, it's her game. -Lauren is a very dangerous player.
I, instead of dangerous, I don't think that I am now.
-You're smart. -[Lauren] I'm…
-I have a lot of intel for sure. -[Corey] But… but what's the…
But what's the advantage of not sharing it when it's in the past now?
She might need it for herself later.
I get the right to say, "Yeah, I'm gonna share this or I'm going to share that."
[Phil] There's been some bickering back and forth.
Hey, y'all bicker all y'all want. I'll just sit and watch.
As long as it… it makes me a millionaire another second, another minute.
You feeling better?
[Phil] Yeah. You know, like, Se Young hit heavy, man.
Like, the tears for me, you know, like, that's like…
-I don't want anybody crying 'cause of me. -[Jaimi] I hate seeing people hurt.
Like, I had dreams about it, you know what I'm saying? Like… [chuckles]
[Cara] Phil just really went after Se Young.
He was really passionate about getting her out,
and then at lunch today there is a noticeable difference in him.
He seems to be more observant,
and I feel like that's because he got the million dollars in his box.
So I have to keep my eyes open.
[Phil] Oh, that's a good one.
[Corey] Five bucks, I hit the buoy.
[Chris] I'll give you a million.
[Phil] Hey, there you go. There you go.
[harp glissando plays]
[intercom chimes]
Guests, I have an exotic activity waiting for you outside.
Do come and join me.
[Lydia] Hey, those are expensive Stag Resort rocks there
-you're throwing into the lake there. -[all chuckle]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Phil] People are watching everything,
so it just didn't make sense for me to do this agenda yet.
That would've just brought more heat onto me.
But now I got to keep a watchful eye for my chance to get this done.
[Cara chuckling nervously] Oh my God. Oh no. Are we gonna be eating something?
[server] All right. Any seat, guys.
And no touching anything until Peter arrives.
-[Corey] Damn. -[chuckling nervously]
I'm ready to do whatever you tell me. I wanna go to that trophy room.
Whatever's in this is getting gulped down.
I'm here for these challenges. I'm here to get into the trophy room.
I need that piece of info on the millionaire now.
Guests.
-[Cara] Hello, Peter. -Hello, Peter.
To find the millionaire and claim the money for yourselves,
you must be able to do things you don't want to do
while problem-solving under pressure.
We will have some extra guests at the table today,
but there aren't any extra chairs.
[Sam chuckles]
That's because they're already at the table.
Jesus Christ.
You have been split up into two teams of five
based on who you sat next to on one side of the table.
Chris, Cara, Sam, Lydia, and Jaimi, you're Team A.
Corey, Kyle, Lauren, Phillip, and Sydnee, you're Team B.
I think it's time to say hello to our new friends.
[Cara] Oh my God.
-[all scream] -No! Oh my God!
-[Sam] It's real. -[Corey] Oh my God.
[Peter] That is a brown North rat.
-[Lauren] Oh no. -Oh my God. Oh my God.Oh my God!
-No, wait, wait, wait, wait. -No.
-[Cara] What is it? -[Sam] That's not--
[Peter] A hissing cockroach.
[Corey] Goddamn.
-[Jaimi] I'm about to faint. A roach? -[whimpering]
[Jaimi] I don't want it. My God!
-[Peter] A Pacman frog. -Oh, it's covered.
-[croaking] -[Kyle] It's even curled up.
-[Peter] An African hedgehog. -Okay.
-[Corey] The hedgehog's kind of cute. -Really cute. Oh, he's adorable.
[Jaimi] It is cute.
[Cara] I'm gonna throw up.
[inhales deeply]
[all scream]
-[Phil] My God. -[whimpering] That is huge.
-[Corey] Oh m-- -[Sam] Oh no.
[Peter] And a Bali python.
I am irrationally, deathly afraid of snakes,
and I know I have to go touch this snake to get into the trophy room.
-Nope. -[Cara] All right.
-[Sam] We can do this. Girl. -[Sydnee] No.
-You are so tough. You can do it. -[Sydnee] Nope.
Sydnee's losing her gosh-darn mind.
It's a little ironic she's so afraid of snakes
when she might be a snake.
Do not worry. They won't be joining us for long.
So you must, as a team,
pick up your creatures and carry them to the exotics display,
where there are five terrariums, one for each creature.
You will place the creature by hand
into its correct terrarium,
labeled with its name
in the form of a pictogram you must solve.
Here is an example of a pictogram.
[Corey] Month… Mar… March.
[Chris] Monarch butterfly.
[Peter] Correct. Excellent. Now for each creature
placed in its correctly-labeled terrarium,
you will receive one point.
A tie means the fastest team wins.
The clock will begin at the exotics display area
after I say go.
Okay, team A will go first.
-[Jaimi] All right, guys. -Okay. Let's go.
I'm very eager to get in that trophy room
because I think Phil is the millionaire right now.
I am a very quiet person, but maybe if I had the opportunity,
I could maybe put a target on him.
Team A, it's time to safely put away your creatures.
Go.
[Chris] Come with me to the end. Here. Let's stay here.
[Jaimi] Let's stay here. Okay.
-[Chris] African Hedgehog. -African Hedgehog.
Okay, that's um, North…
-North Rat. The rat. -North rat. This is the brown North Rat.
Okay, so that's me.
The pictograms, that's my part of the challenge.
I'm gonna absolutely destroy that part.
We'll do it as fast as possible.
I wanna win this because I need to get back into the trophy room.
We're basically starting the game over,
and the person who gets that piece of information
is gonna have the upper hand regardless of how you look at it.
It's tape, walk, tape, walk.
-Af… Afro maybe? -Frog.
-[Cara] Frog.
So African frog.
[Chris] Right. This is the kissing…
-This is the hissing… -[Jaimi] Cockroach.
This is the hissing cockroach, guys. Guys… guys, we got it. We got it.
-This one's um… -[Jaimi] Hedgehog.
-[Sam] Dancing… -[Jaimi] Hedgehog.
[Chris] This is… thon. Python! This is the python.
Python, right here. Okay. This is the rat right here.
-What one's mine? -Okay. Go, go, go.
The hissing cockroach, you're on the third one.
This one, this one, this one.
[Cara shrieking]
My skin is crawling. It is so big, but I have to do this.
-You got this, girl. -We got one. One at a time.
-[Lydia] Good job. Good job. -One at a time.
[Jaimi] Next, next, next.
-[Chris] You're the first, right here. -First one.
-[Cara] You got this, Lydia. Perfect. -Move.
-Good job. -[Chris] Okay, good.
-[Cara] Come on, Jaimi. -Clear the way. I got to get this.
This, he want to hop out. [panting]
-[Lydia] You got it. It's not very far. -[Chris] Hold on.
-Two hands. Two hands. -Move, move.
What, this one, right?
[Sam] No, no, no. That's mine. That's mine.
Oh God, Jesus. Oh God. [shrieking]
[Chris] Is it a little annoying?
We mix up the boxes in terms of bringing them to the wrong one.
Yes, it is.
I just hope it doesn't cost us.
[Sam] I'm grabbing my python.
-Are you ready? -[Chris] Do it.
-[Sam] I can't get this open. -[Chris] Here. Here.
-I'll get it off. -Is this it?
-This is my python? -[Chris] Go. Go. Okay.
-[Lydia] Go, go, go. -[Chris] Yeah.
-[Cara] You got this. -[Sam] Let's go. Let's go.
-[Jaimi] Spin it. -[Sam] Locked in. Okay. Done. Finished.
-I'm so proud of us. -[Chris] Amazing.
[Cara] Wait, I'm touching your nasty hands?
-[Lydia chuckling] Yeah, yeah. -[Jaimi] All the nastiness.
[Kyle] Come on, Sydnee. You got this.
[Phil] You've dealt with snakes before.
Just in human form.
[chuckling] You know what I mean?
I like these people,
but I don't necessarily trust the information
that might come out of that trophy room.
I need to hear it through these ears right here,
straight from the British man's mouth himself, what it is.
And so, it's just important for me to win.
Team B.
One of the strongest players in this game is Chris.
He absolutely killed that.
It's gonna be hard for us to win this challenge right now.
But we got to work as a team. This is the only way we can win,
especially 'cause Sydnee's having this breakdown.
[Peter] Ready, set, go.
[Sydnee] Run, run, run. We're moving, we're moving.
Roll walk on, roll walk on. What's this? Roll walk on. What's this one?
I've got… I got… I got mine. African hedgehog. I got it.
[Lauren and Corey] Pacman frog.
[Lauren] Pacman frog is mine.
[Sydnee] Pi, this is python.
-Okay. -[Corey] Got you.
[Sydnee] Hissing cockroach. Cockroach. Cockroach.
[Kyle] Hissing cockroach?
[all clamoring]
-Shut it and lock it. Shut it and lock it. -[Kyle] Lock it, lock it.
Go, go, go. Quick. Run, run, run. We're moving. We're moving. We're moving.
[Kyle] Which one's left?
[Lauren] How do I open it?
Done.
How on earth do I pick the giant snake? I don't know if I can do it.
Okay.
[Corey] I'm super nervous.
Sydnee sees her snake and… [mimics blubbering]
Come on, woman, like, pick that thing up.
Throw it in the goddamn cage. Like, come on.
-Look out. Move. -[Lauren] You got it. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, you got it. You got it. Easy work. Easy. Easy.
-[Kyle] Good job. -Lock it. Finished.
-Done. -Finished.
-[Corey] Let's go. -[Lauren] Finished.
-Everybody get in here. -[Kyle] Good deal.
-[Lauren] You did it! [laughs] -[Kyle] We did it. Let's go.
[tense music playing]
Well, that was very close.
Both teams completed the task with a perfect score.
But who was faster?
-[Phil inhales sharply] -[Sydnee] Come on.
Team A took one minute and 34 seconds.
Team B…
you completed the activity…
[suspenseful music intensifies]
…in a stunning 54 seconds.
[cheering]
-[Sydnee] Yes! -[Phil] Let's go!
Yes!
That's incredible.
[Lauren] That was awesome.
-Oh, phew. -[Sydnee] Okay, let's go!
Team B, you all faced your fears, especially Sydnee with the snake.
-[Lauren] Whoo! -[Peter] Congratulations for your bravery.
For that, you will gain access to the trophy room this afternoon,
where you will gain information on the millionaire.
Happy hunting.
[music fades]
-[Kyle] My gosh, is that sushi? -[Chris] Fantastic.
-[Cara] Stop it right now. -I'll take all the plates.
Yes.
How fun was that challenge?
-So glad we didn't have to eat anything. -[Jaimi] That was so fun.
-Was it fun? [laughing] -No, absolutely not.
Did anybody notice anything unusual today when we went down to the beach?
The thing that I noticed was all the guys did the skipping stones.
And I was wondering who was the first one that suggested that?
[Phil] That wasn't a suggestion. I'm sitting here bored.
[Lydia] And you just started skipping stones.
-But I love that. -Maybe that's nothing.
And that's… that's something different, right?
I'm gonna… I'm gonna… I'm gonna defend Phil here.
If you put a group of guys
on a beach with stones and water, we're gonna throw the stones.
Okay, maybe it was nothing.
Who do you guys think you would choose as the person for your trophy room?
[Sydnee] I need to get the clue in the trophy room
because I don't trust Lauren, and I don't trust anybody else.
It's my third time there, and I had to pick up a snake.
So I want to be that one person, and I will share the information.
-[Lauren] Mm. -[Sydnee] I'm just, yeah…
The only person we know here that's not the millionaire is me.
-[Corey] Yeah. -That is true.
So if someone's for sure not the millionaire
and has no reason to lie at all…
[Sam] Why do you make the face?
We all have a reason to lie still.
You don't have to look at her when I know you're--
-I'm allowed to look around at the table. -No, you can look at her.
You already have a lot of other advantages that we don't have…
-Yeah, exactly. -…as the former millionaire.
Baby girl, you just ran around this house and lied for two eliminations,
and we know that.
Girl, have you lost your mind?
There is not a chance
that I would ever vote for you to be the voice of the trophy room.
Not only that, now you're arrogant enough to think you're about to coast for days,
and you got it all figured out. That type of thing irks me.
I've made my point. I'm not gonna keep arguing it.
I'm not comfortable with you being the one.
[Sydnee] I'm not comfortable with you either.
[Phil] Listen, man, it's going well, I think.
I haven't been accused.
So from a strategic standpoint,
it doesn't make sense to complete this agenda.
Especially when I see that there's some friction
that's taking place between Lauren and Sydnee.
So I'll… I'll take one vote against me.
And right now, I can just sit pretty and fly under the radar.
I personally think this… these two right now
is a little shaky for me.
That's fine. I'm fine with anybody else then.
[Sam] So Corey, what are your thoughts being on the winning team?
Do you think you could be somebody,
or there's someone else that you feel more comfortable going in?
I'm comfortable with being the one.
Because I'm gonna tell you guys what happened.
[dramatic music playing]
I want to make sure the clue is not given to somebody
that's going to bullshit us.
Doesn't have to be me. Can't be Sydnee. [chuckles]
The trophy room.
Gorgeous fire hazard.
Corey, Kyle, Phillip, Sydnee, Lauren.
How are you all feeling being back in the trophy room?
-Amazing. -Feels good to be back in it again.
-Back? First time here, so I feel good. -[Corey] First time for Phil.
Any suspects?
Sydnee?
Trying not to talk today.
I get in trouble whenever I do. [chuckling]
Do you notice any odd behavior in the house?
I'm keeping my mouth shut
because I can feel Lauren eyeing me this entire time,
just waiting for something to pounce on.
I think we're ready for our clue now.
[all laughing]
That's why… You see, that's why my homie, man.
That's why we're homies.
[Phil chuckles]
Well, congratulations for winning that challenging activity.
You will now receive a clue.
Well, one of you will.
You must now choose
-who you wish to receive this information. -[Kyle] All right.
It's not a simple decision. It must be somebody
that you think you can truly trust.
I can go first. I'm voting for Corey.
[Kyle] Oh, yeah. My vote is with you as well, Corey.
[Phil] My strategy is I don't want to put up a fight to get the clue
and have people thinking, "Oh, why are you putting up the fight?"
"Because you're the millionaire?"
Yeah. I mean, I trust you.
[suspenseful music playing]
I'm fine with Corey. I don't care.
Thank you.
[Phil] All right. Let's make it happen.
Have you made a decision?
-[Sydnee] Yes. -[Kyle] Yes.
-[Phil] Corey. -[Peter] Corey.
Everyone else, thank you so much. I shall see you later.
Thanks.
People are starting to break down fast.
I think this house needs a leader to step up.
So I'm gonna keep playing with integrity, honesty.
I got to be that guy right now.
-[Peter] Congratulations. -[exhales sharply]
Were they right to trust you, Corey?
Yeah. Yeah.
Now, I wanted to tell you something about the millionaire's secret agenda.
Sadly, the millionaire chose not to attempt it.
The coward.
What I can tell you
is that the millionaire was not chased by the hound in the first activity.
[dramatic music stings]
[chuckling]
Why are you laughing?
Because that hound never chased me.
[panting] Oh! Oh shit.
-[barking] -[guests cheering]
[sighs]
[somber music playing]
In my heart, if I go out there and say what I said I was going to,
this could be my last night. [sighs]
And it could cost you a million dollars if you make the wrong decision.
[Corey] When it comes to lying,
I've done it a few times in my life, and it got me nowhere.
The objective of this game is to win a million dollars.
But the road is paved with lies, deceit, and manipulation.
I'm super tempted to not tell the truth right now.
[chuckling]
Oh, this got interesting.
[Peter chuckles]
Good luck. And I'll see you at the elimination dinner.
[exhaling sharply]
[softly] Oh my God.
-I'm ready for Corey to come in. -I know.
-I know, like… -[Cara] What do we think he's gonna say?
You see him? The prodigal son has returned.
-[Chris] You look a little disturbed. -Oh shiz.
-This one was tough. -[Lydia] Oh.
[Corey] The very first thing that was said was that:
the millionaire did not attend to their agenda.
[gasps] Oh.
[Lauren] That may mean that somebody felt
-"I don't feel safe to do that." -"I feel I can't get away with it."
"That would make them suspicious."
[Sydnee] Yeah.
I think Phil's the millionaire.
It just makes so much sense.
The millionaire didn't complete their agenda.
He's been trying so hard to fly under the radar.
Phil is just very suspicious to me.
-Here's the hard part. -Oh.
[Corey] My heart is going a million miles an hour right now.
What do I tell these people?
But I came up with a plan.
I'm just praying it doesn't backfire on me.
The millionaire…
was not chased by the hound in the first round.
[Lauren] Okay.
So immediately I thought,
-"I didn't get chased at all. At all." -[Chris] Yeah.
-[all] Oh. -I didn't get chased.
-I did.
-I didn't get chased. -You got chased. She did not get chased.
[Sam] So let's raise our hands if you didn't get chased down.
-And we know it's not me. -[Lydia] So it narrows it down.
[Sam] Lauren can't be the millionaire.
And you have these six names to go by.
Lydia, Corey, myself, Cara, Sydnee, and Phil.
I feel like I'm back to square one when you just really have no idea.
-How you guys feeling? Like, do you guys… -I trust you.
Of course. 100%. You did that to your own detriment.
-Thanks for sharing. -[Lauren] Yes.
-[Sam] Yeah, thank you. -Thank you.
[Sam] You look nervous.
Whoever got that million yesterday has got to have a lot of pressure on them.
[Phil] Especially being one of the six, you know?
So it's like you already feel you're one of the six.
Now you got the million on top of you.
There are six people who the clue could pertain to.
The more people, the merrier. I welcome you in with open arms.
But now I need to find myself in these different circles,
engaging with different folk, reading the tea leaves,
listening to it, trying to see how others are voting.
[Lauren] I'm playing for the team right now.
I want to be helpful.
And I think Sydnee's the millionaire.
Right after the boxes, I knew that was a prime time to soak up energy.
What are people feeling right now?
So that was when we went down to the beach?
[Lauren] Yes. And just body language
and there was like, a… like, okay, like shortness of, like…
[panting]
Like… like short breaths and this fear look in the eyes.
That's a very good observation.
[Lauren] And I was like, another thing, just a quick note,
is as soon as we win the challenge,
like, "Oh, I'll do it."
"If I had to hold a snake, then I should be the one to…"
I was like… "Interesting."
[Phil] Or bring up the conversation, ultimately start here.
So we end up here making it a team vote.
-[Lauren] 100%. -Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I see… I see the same thing.
The defensiveness and how that got so… heated.
-Yeah… -[Lauren] Worth considering.
Yeah, it's worth considering.
The clue is the millionaire was not chased by the hound in the first activity.
Sydnee's in that group.
So I know now for certain that the millionaire is Sydnee.
My head is burning.
[unsettling music playing]
I don't think any of us has a specific person in mind.
So now we have a clue.
And unfortunately, I'm not safe.
I don't trust Lauren,
and we don't have enough information to tell who the millionaire really is.
So rather than keep Lauren and the millionaire in,
I'm more comfortable getting one of them for sure gone.
She has to go home.
I genuinely don't have a clue.
So then it's, "Okay, do we go with someone suspicious,
or do we vote out a dangerous player?"
-And Lauren's a player. -[Sam] Yeah.
And I'm sorry, I don't know if anybody else has seen how smart
and, like, sneaky she actually is.
-[Corey] Yeah, now that she's… -[Jaimi] The veteran millionaire.
-[Corey] Yeah. -Yeah.
To me personally, Lauren's useless.
-I think we're all on the same page. -Yeah.
Tonight's so hard.
[Cara] I know.
[Sam] Why in the hell would I vote somebody off
that I know is certainly not the millionaire?
They're not playing the same game I'm playing.
There are two sides right now.
The Lauren camp and the Sydnee camp.
I think what's really bothersome
is the "I'm here to play an integrity game."
And it's like, you're really not.
[Chris] I have an important strategy conversation to have with you,
especially now that you and I are both, uh, safe.
[Jaimi] Yeah.
And Corey, mentally, you were never on the list for me.
And now you're logically not on the list as well. 100%.
Yeah.
[footsteps approaching]
[Lauren] What I'm seeing from Sydnee is how I felt for the first couple days.
I see fear in her eyes.
And what I see is body language of somebody that's feeling scared.
[Corey] She's nervous.
-[Lauren] Explain that. -[Corey] I don't know.
Do you… Do you have an alliance with Sydnee?
[Jaimi] No.
My character, I'm pretty transparent too.
-I don't like to be loud and wrong. -[Lauren] Yeah.
But as far as like, "I'm not gonna vote for you because…"
No, if I think it's your ass, I'm voting for you.
And I think, just go check out if there's more people that can talk.
-[Jaimi] Yeah, just figure out what… Yeah. -[Lauren] Cara.
Lydia.
[Cara] Hi.
[Lauren] I just want a vibe check.
-Hi. I didn't give you a hug. -We haven't talked to Corey.
They wanted you to be part of that conversation.
[Lydia] Oh, okay.
-I'm voting for her. 100%. -[Jaimi laughing]
[Chris] I just want to be super clear with you.
[Jaimi] Yeah.
That may all be true. I've no reason to trust anything that she said.
-You know where I stand. -Just want to be clear.
How are you feeling about who it is?
Well, I know it's not me.
You're low on the list. You're low on the list, just objectively for me.
Yeah, I have been noticing
maybe people were more vocal the last couple of rounds.
And now, they're getting quieter.
-[Lydia] There's some good options too. -I personally noticed
a little change in Phil.
A slight… budge.
[tense music playing]
I just feel like so much, it could be anything.
I feel like right now, we can't just throw names in.
-[Cara] Yeah. -We need logic.
-We need-- -[Lydia] A reason.
So, I'll say it again,
but right now, if it's not crystal clear,
millionaire-wise to me, by tonight, I'm voting for Lauren.
-[Chris] Same here. -[Corey] I said the same thing.
[Cara] I know they are Team Sydnee,
but I just don't think that taking Lauren out right now is smart.
I think the quieter ones need to band together
and fight back against the more vocal people in the house.
Chris, Corey, Jaimi, Sydnee are all like,
"I don't care if she's not. She's gonna go home."
That's pretty much an alliance forming.
[Sam] I don't think Lauren is dangerous.
I think Lauren is an asset. I think Sydnee's dangerous.
You can't call anyone in that alliance out because the target will be on you.
And they have the numbers.
[Sam] Right, so they have the four.
[whispering] We would need Phil.
So what I think we have to do is say Lauren, and we vote…
[Sam whispering] Sydnee.
I don't know if we tell Lauren or not.
-[Sam] We have to. -We have to.
I want Lauren in this game
because we know she's not the millionaire, and she has some valuable information.
So what do I need to do? I need to form my own alliance.
You got to know when to play your cards. And right now, I'm gonna play them.
Look at me.
Myself, Kyle, Cara are not voting for you.
We're not gonna say Sydnee's name, but that's what we'll do.
-Why am I being thrown out there then? -Listen to me.
I'm… I'm missing it. What's happening?
Corey.
Corey's gonna vote for me?
-Look at me. Look at me now. -This doesn't make any sense.
Listen to me. Listen to me.
I need you to focus. Please, I'm begging you.
Corey, Chris, Sydnee, and Jaimi will vote for you.
So, we are trusting each other that we will not vote for you
because we don't like that alliance mentality.
They're gonna vote for me anyway.
[shushes] It doesn't matter because we're not voting for you.
They only have four.
We just have to hope that Phil…
That's the only one that I can't speak for.
Do you have any relationship with Phil?
-I think I do, but nothing's true. -So…
I hope that we could sway Phil in not choosing Lauren.
Then again, you have to be careful
because if you're coming off as if you're swaying somebody, then…
all eyes are gonna be on you.
[Kyle] Lauren, I think your name's gonna be out there.
[Lauren] And I think that that's gonna be a bonehead move.
Are you, like, are you going with the snowball?
Oh, what, when it comes to Lauren?
-[Kyle] Yeah. -[Phil] Um…
So if… if I was to vote for Lauren,
it would just be because you're this, I hate the term, "dangerous player."
You know what I mean? It'd be because of that. Like…
If I knew who the millionaire is 100%,
then other people have to go. You know what I mean?
Because I… I just don't want it to come to me.
[Kyle] Do you think Sydnee's persuading you,
or you think it's just natural?
[exhales]
[Phil] I don't think it's persuading, you know what I mean?
But it's like, if you just bond with somebody just on an emotional level,
it's… it's hard.
[Cara] Mm-hmm.
["Blame" by Three Laws playing]
[Lydia] Oh, I think things are gonna change after tonight.
And I think Sydnee's going to hell on a scholarship, the way she has acted.
We… we need to get Sydnee out tonight.
This rift between Lauren and Sydnee is gonna get spicy.
So I don't think I'm getting sent home.
I opted not to complete the challenge because of this… this little beef,
and I feel pretty good about it.
But the moment I start thinking about, you know,
putting some 13-inch rims on my Kia Soul, that's the time that I'm gonna lose it.
Any moment, something can change.
[Lauren] This is the worst dinner yet.
If this last-minute plan doesn't work,
I'm going home.
♪ I've only got myself to blame… ♪
[Sydnee] There's no doubt in my mind that Lauren is gunning for me.
Now, I might look like a million bucks, but I'm not the millionaire.
♪ I've only got myself to blame ♪
[Peter] Welcome to another elimination dinner.
Let's start the discussion.
[Chris] Um…
Peter, there's two ways we can find the millionaire.
We could take a guess and probably be wrong.
The other way is to vote for somebody who is actively disincentivized
to find the millionaire because they're 100% not the millionaire,
and I'll be voting for Lauren tonight.
I think we'll do a better job finding the millionaire without you in the group.
The information that I have is helpful right now
to determine who the millionaire is, and I'm fairly certain I know who it is.
[Sydnee] The only reason you're coming for me
is because I brought it to everybody's attention.
You're the millionaire is why I'm trying to get you out.
Baby girl, you're gonna be so shocked when you see my empty box.
There are clues along the way that I have every--
I would love to hear them.
-Okay, I'm glad you asked. -[Sydnee] Sure.
-This is how I keep my information. -Oh, I see that. Receipts.
-Receipts? -I love receipts, Jaimi!
-Thank you for asking. -[Jaimi] Yeah.
[Lauren] Okay, so, when we saw our boxes,
I noticed a serious deer-in-the-headlights look on your face
that I remember feeling.
I was so scared. And you had the same look.
There was a different energy and a more defensiveness.
You were so smooth and cool, calm, and collected.
And then suddenly, that turned on a dime. Okay?
The big breaths, the… the…
There was a shortness in your breath, but you're trying to take big breaths.
You're trying to calm yourself. I see it. I saw it at the beach. I saw it.
Also, you faced your biggest fear. Yay.
-But also-- -But that's suspicious?
But a motivation, wanting to be the one that's maybe in the trophy room,
learning a clue. Okay?
You were first to volunteer to go to the trophy room.
-That's my ego. -[Lauren] Okay?
One of these things doesn't mean anything,
but all of the things mean something, and that is my piece.
Hey, Lauren, if we vote you out 'cause you're a strong player and a threat
because you've been the millionaire, is that not a valid reason?
That is a bonehead move, if I'm completely honest.
-Because I'm a valuable… -Appreciate that.
…I'm a valuable player.
Any questions asked, I've been honest. I've shared openly.
[Chris] Why should I believe you? You've done nothing but lie
because you've played the game, but now you act like
we're supposed to be like, "She's a saint for telling us"?
No, we're gonna look at you differently. Of course.
All we have is that you lied to us. That's it. That's all.
I do have a heart for what I think is the right way to play a game
and what I think is integrity.
That's what motivates me.
This absolute nonsense has got to stop.
Whatever this is you got going on, Lauren, is absolutely ridiculous,
and it irks my spirit.
Your energy and mouth has been about certain things like…
[mimicking] "Oh yeah, of course you and Sydnee…"
Can you please not do that when you're trying to mimic me like that?
No, I'm gonna… I'm gonna do this.
It's a lot of stuff that you're saying,
and I sure wish I had receipts in my bosom.
[exhales sharply]
I don't like feeling mocked.
That's what you did.
I am a mirror reflection of your energy,
so if you don't like it…
-[Lauren] All right, I-- -…imagine how I feel.
Okay.
That is really the reason why I'm gonna be voting for you tonight.
It hurts seeing Lauren hurt,
but at the end of the day, she knows things we don't know.
Kyle, we haven't heard anything from you at this dinner.
I've been wanting to play the game of getting the millionaire out,
but I don't know who that is, and the only thing I know for sure
is that Lauren's gonna be a major threat to me later, so she has my vote.
[Peter] Phillip.
[Phil] You know, I think last elimination,
[chuckling] I was loud and wrong.
Now I'm just trying to be mindful,
get what they're saying when it comes to just the strategy aspect,
and ultimately, it doesn't make sense to get the millionaire out right now.
Let's get other people out. You know what I mean?
Just because why? I don't want that coming to me.
There you go.
But also, I don't want to negate what Lauren said.
This checklist of, quote-unquote, odd behavior,
sort of just has me thinking, "All right, you know, how is Syd?"
So do I have, like, one person that I'm 100% on? Nah.
It's time. Let's vote.
[bell ringing]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Lauren] I don't feel a lot of defense for me,
which I understand,
but it feels very much like I am alone in it.
Unless everything works according to plan, I'm going home.
[Kyle] Lauren's crying. It sucks, but you got to put emotion aside sometimes
and… and just execute.
Everyone I brought in on this plan, fingers crossed.
I'm like, I hope they stick to it, and I hope they vote Sydnee.
And I knew Phil was our wild card. And man, I hope he votes with us.
Merci beaucoup.
It's time to reveal who you think is the millionaire.
Oh, there are two keys in here,
which means it's a tie.
[somber music playing]
Lauren.
Ugh!
Sydnee.
Let's keep it interesting.
[Peter] This calls for a revote.
You may only vote for Sydnee or Lauren.
And if this is a tie again, the millionaire's vote will break the tie.
Garçon, another vote, s'il vous plaît.
[Phil] Dang, this is wild. Yep.
On my first vote, I circled Lauren's name
because Syd is my girl.
The second vote, I'm contemplating
if I got to change my strategy, change my game plan,
or… or what?
I'm starting to feel the pressure a little bit.
[suspenseful music intensifies]
[music fades]
[Peter] The second vote is in.
And I regret to inform you it was a tie again.
But the millionaire hidden among you
broke the tie.
The guest going home tonight is…
[exhales sharply]
[Peter] Lauren.
Yeah.
[somber music playing]
[Peter] It is time to open your box
and prove that you are not the millionaire.
[softly] Ah.
[Peter] Empty.
[Lauren] Just take note, everybody.
Got it really narrowed down now.
Don't get distracted by louder voices.
Lauren, you will need to check out of The Stag immediately.
[sniffling] Okay. I'm out.
I'm proud to have been here,
and I'm proud to have done it exactly how I did it.
I have no regrets whatsoever.
And honestly, the million dollars sounds really great,
but I don't need it at the sacrifice of some of the things that are needed,
I think, to win this game.
And I'm so okay with that.
[Peter] Nine of you remain.
The millionaire is still here with us.
Tomorrow, I have another activity planned for you,
and it's quite thirst-quenching.
Good night, and happy hunting.
[chiming]
[Phil sighs]
[Chris] So…
Fun times.
[all chuckle]
Nobody's got anything to say about how unpleasant that was.
[Sam] You know, realistically, we got a big piece of information,
and it's pretty telling, right?
The millionaire's vote was the deciding factor on… on who went home,
whether it was Sydnee or Lauren.
Which means the millionaire voted for Lauren,
which means the millionaire is the person who voted
for Lauren within the six people.
If there are six people who were not chased by the hound
who could be the millionaire, please allow me.
Corey and Sydnee.
Then you have Phil, Lydia, myself, and Cara.
Six people who could be the millionaire.
And the deciding vote tonight
to send Lauren home was the millionaire's vote.
I will go ahead and tell. I voted for you, Sydnee.
-I voted for Lauren. -I voted for Lauren.
-Obviously, I did too. -I did.
I voted for you, Sydnee.
Sydnee, I'm not gonna lie. I voted for you.
[Chris] Sam, you voted for Sydnee too?
Of course.
I'm just asking because it's good to know how you two voted.
Right.
I do think everyone is being honest about their votes.
So it was not myself, it was not Cara, and it was not Lydia who sent Lauren home.
That means that the millionaire is either
Sydnee, Corey, or Phil.
Okay, so… so if it's narrowed down to three people then…
Wait, who's the three? Me, Corey…
[Lydia] And Phil. And Phil.
[Sam] That was a lot of info right there.
Everybody agrees with that, right, based on…
based on the facts that are at play?
Yeah.
I'm happy for everybody to say who they voted for
because it helps clear my name.
I do notice that Phil never says who he voted for.
We know, but he never admits it.
I was right. It's Phil.
There's just no way that he would send Sydnee home.
It's him. It has to be him.
You're gonna be sitting on your hands all day tomorrow.
[both chuckling]
Oh man, what is happening?
I should have sent Syd home
because then it wouldn't have snowballed into a second tie.
I messed up because I went feelings over facts.
My back is against the wall,
especially that we have it narrowed down to three people.
But, baby, listen. As long as I got breath,
I'm not gonna go down without a fight.
[suspenseful music playing]
[music ends]
[dramatic music playing]
[Sydnee] I don't trust anybody to start. I really don't trust people now.
I need to move the money. This is mad Hunger Games.
The hunt is on.
[music continues]
The millionaire is lying about their profession.
What if someone's a cop?
[Sam] I'll never forget that.
It was downright cruel.
I want her ass out of here.
[dramatic music continues]
-Who lied? -Somebody lied. It's a game about lies.
-It's a hell of a twist. -[exhales]
-Are you the millionaire? -[sniffles]
[exclaiming]
[all screaming]
-I think you're shallow and pretentious. -What?
-I'm here for this. -That's some savage shit.
She's not helping us. It's driving me insane.
[Peter] You've seen the power that the millionaire wields.
[music fading]
I didn't see that coming.
[laughs]
[music ends]
[dramatic sting]
[closing theme music playing]
[music ends]
