The twenty-fifth episode of Big Brother was filled with surprises, the Live Eviction, and the HOH Competition. Unbeknownst to the house guests, Candice, Judd, Jessie, and the evicted house guest had the chance to compete to come back into the Big Brother house and compete for the half of a million dollars. The episode picked up where Wednesday's episode left off with Elissa deciding to use the POV on herself and Aaryn nominating Spencer for eviction. Aaryn really wanted to put Amanda up for eviction, but chose to pick Spencer. Helen told Andy that he is a swing vote and that he must vote to keep her in the house. Andy was annoyed by her manipulative and pushy ways. Because she felt that Andy has lied to her, Helen tried to convince McCrae to keep her in the house. She also asked him why is he afraid of Amanda and told him that he needs to stand up Amanda. McCrae told Amanda about what Helen said and she became upset. Because she needs Helen to stay in the house, Elissa decided to try to convince GinaMarie to vote to keep Helen in the house. Elissa and Helen had cornered Andy to vote to keep Helen in the house. Helen also threatened Andy by telling him that if he does not vote to keep her in the game, then he would have a huge target on his back (Really Helen?).
Time for the Live Vote and Live Eviction! Both Spencer and Helen gave brief speeches in an attempt to sway votes, even though Helen was tearful and long-winded. The results were four votes to evict Helen and one vote to evict Spencer. As a result, Helen was evicted from the Big Brother house, but had the chance to compete against Candice, Judd, and Jessie to come back into the house. Helen said that she had been questioning Andy's loyalty towards her because of his alliance with Amanda and McCrae. She also called Andy an "all-American good ol' boy" who is not a liar and cheater. Julie Chen told her that Helen will compete to come back into the house and she was excited.
Before the members of the Jury compete to come back to the house, we had a chance to see what they were up to in the Jury house. They were very excited to find out that they will compete to come back into the house. Julie broke the news to the house guests and they were shocked. When the jurors walked back into the house, they were welcomed back with open arms.
Time for the Juror Competition/HOH Competition! The competition was called "Off the Wall" and each player must catch ten balls without falling off of the wall. The first house guest who catches ten balls will become the new HOH. The first juror who catches ten balls will come back to the game and become the new HOH.
