Goodbye to You

"Good Evening, and welcome to another edition of Big Brother. I am Cookie Myers, and tonight, is Eviction Night. What will happen when the votes are in? Will Gwen be leaving the house to the relief of newfound romantic couple Ethan and Theresa? Or will Mike leave, and let Gwen stay behind? All this and more as we begin our show"..

"Tonight, only Fox and Ethan are allowed to vote. Should the vote come to a 1-1 tie, Theresa, as the reigning Head of Household, will have the deciding vote. Let's check in and see how the days leading up to tonight have been…

After Nomination Night

The next morning, Theresa woke up and began to make herself breakfast. Suddenly, she felt a pull to her back. Turning around, she saw Gwen standing right behind her.

"Can I help you?"

"No. But just be warned, Theresa, I will be staying here, and I will make you pay for taking Ethan away from me."

"Gwen, your threats mean nothing to me." Theresa says as she begins to side step around Gwen.

"Listen to me, you witch!" Gwen says, grabbing Theresa's arm, "Ethan IS mine, and he will forever BE mine! Get that through your Hispanic head. I know how slow it can be for you to process things."

"You know what, Gwen? You're all talk and no action. I haven't seen you lift a finger around here either in the food competitions or helping with the chores. All I see you do is lounge your anorexic self around the sun, and flaunt yourself to Ethan, who, hmm, last time I looked, didn't want a thing to do with you! So I suggest that you leave well enough alone and shut your mouth!" Finally escaping, Theresa goes to the HOH room and locks the door.

"Amazing what I have learned in this experience. Ethan wants me…I want him…it's happening so fast, yet it feels so right….God, this is incredible. Yet, one thing holds me back, and it's Gwen. God, the nerve of that woman! You would think she was Queen of the World or something!" Sitting on her bed, Theresa sighs. "This is the right thing. That woman will be leaving or my name isn't Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald!"

Hearing the door knock, Theresa goes to open it, finding Ethan on the other side. "Can I come in?"
"Sure, why not."

"Are you doing okay?" Ethan asks, as he sits next to Theresa.

Nodding, Theresa looks at him. "Yeah, I'm alright. How are you?"

"Good. Listen, I want Gwen out of here just as much as you do. I don't want anything standing in our way. I know we have chemistry, Theresa, and I want to see what could happen between us, in and out of this house."

"I want that too, Ethan."

Smiling, Ethan kisses her hand. "Good to know. Getting to know you has been so wonderful. You've made me forget that Gwen is here to begin with. You've made me see things that I never knew I could see just by being around you."

"Even in this house?"

"Even in this house. Don't worry, things will work out." Ethan says, giving Theresa a comforting hug.

"Thanks, Ethan."

"You're welcome."

Eviction Night

"Let's now check in with all the houseguests in the living room. "Hi, houseguests!"

"Hi, Cookie."

"Gwen, Mike, tonight you are both up for eviction. It's been a rough month for all of you, and my biggest question, as I'm sure the biggest question for all our viewers is, Gwen, do you still harbor resentment toward Theresa?"

"You know, Cookie, this show is all about competition and striving to be the top. In order to do that, you have to fight the fight, and be a different person. The way I've been in this house isn't nearly as how I am outside the house. Yeah, I am a woman who likes the power and the control, but, I'm also a woman, and I have to fight for what I have to in order to get ahead in the world. But to answer your question, no, I don't harbor resentment toward Theresa. This is a game, and we're all playing it the way we need to in order to get to the Final two."

"Thank you, Gwen, nicely spoken. Theresa, I'll ask you the same question, do you feel resentment toward Gwen?"
"No, Cookie. Like Gwen said, this is a game, and we each had a role to play. I'm playing this for my personal benefit, and no one else's. It is what it is."

"Thank you. Alright, everyone, here is how tonight will go. Ethan, Fox, you are the only two people to vote. Should there be a 1-1 tie, Theresa, as reigning HOH, you will be the tiebreaker. Does everyone understand?"

A collective "yes" is heard. "Great. Ethan, please go to the Diary Room and cast your vote.

Ethan gets up, and makes his way to the Diary Room. "Ethan, please cast your vote."

"I vote to evict Gwen."

"Thank you, Ethan, please go and send in Fox."

Ethan makes his way back to the living room, and Fox moves to the Diary room.

"Fox, please cast your vote for eviction."

"I vote to evict…"

Fox then makes his way out of the Diary room.

"Will Gwen leave? Let's now go back to the Living Room to announce the votes."

"Everyone, we have the vote. The voting is at a tie. Mike, Gwen, you have each received one vote. Theresa, as reigning Head of Household, you have to cast the final vote. Please stand, and cast your vote, now."

Theresa stands up, and looks at the two nominees. "I nominated both of you for a reason. Tonight, however, only one of you gets to leave this house." Looking at Gwen, Theresa sighs. "Gwen, it's no secret that you and I haven't seen eye to eye on a lot of issues. I'm sorry, but I have to evict you tonight."

"It's alright." Gwen then gets up.

"Let me make this official, Gwen, you have been evicted from the Big Brother house. Please take a moment to say goodbye to your houseguests, and then gather your bag at the door."

After hugging everyone, Gwen comes up to Theresa. "I'm sorry for how I acted."

"So am I. Good luck, Gwen."

Leaning in, Gwen whispers to Theresa. "Please, just take care of Ethan."

"Alright."

With that, Gwen leaves, leaving the house sighing in her departure.

(Gwen has left the house. In a way I feel so much better about it because now we've met common ground. I hope she has a great future outside this house. Theresa.)

Making her way into the studio, Gwen meets with Cookie. "Hi, Cookie, nice to meet you."

"Come and sit."

"Gwen, you have had an interesting experience in this house, from seeing your ex, to then becoming enemies with Theresa. Was it all a ploy? Or were viewers seeing the real you?"

"A few things I did in this house were a ploy. This is a game, and in order to make it to the end, you have to change yourself into the bad guy. I did that, and granted, it backfired on me. The people left are strong players, and I wish them the best."

"Who do you think will win this game?"

"I think it will be Theresa. She has a strong head on her shoulders, and doesn't back down. I wish her luck."

"Thank you, Gwen. There you have it, viewers, another episode. Tune in soon for our next show!"
