9:00 p.m. – “Previously on ‘Big Brother’!” In the 18th episode, the three nominees (Brooklyn, Cam and Chelsie) competed live in the A.I. Arena, with Chelsie eking out a victory. The house then had a mad scramble session, with Brooklyn begging and pleading to stay in the game. Alas, the players voted one by one to send Brooklyn packing, with only Chelsie voting to keep her. “I came here to play a loyal game to the first people that asked me to be on their team,” she told Julie during her exit interview. “I stand by that. I wasn’t going to lie after the fact, so I owned up to my choices.”
