The monitor showed Tep and Cody on the block as Julie walked across the stage.

"It seems this eviction might be predictable on the surface, but the sinister evil below still lingers to turn the road of fate in his favor." Julie explained.

"A fortune teller usually only tells fortunes for money, but I'm really interested to see how this future plays out." Chris stated.

"It will be a battle to see who goes out next and a must-win battle for Head of Household where all the odds don't favor Conor." Julie explained.

"So get set for the most thrilling...and predictable probably episode of Total...Drama…" Chris began.

"Big Brother!" Julie finished as the crowd began cheering very loudly.

The camera zoomed in close on the door.

Previously on Big Brother: Conor and Dana drew a deal in order to get rid of the people to they wanted gone. However, Cody was wise to his tricks and Conor tried calling home out on it. Sayde was pitched as the target and Tep had doubts about his partnership with Conor. At the Veto competition, a quick paced Sayde won her freedom into the final five leaving Tep as the evicted for the week. Cody took Sayde's place, but Conor decided he is going to take his chance to save his best friend. Tonight, things will get heated as Conor's conquest continues. Will he be able to become the new Head of Household despite the three-to-one odds. Also, what is up with the Jury Members in the Jury House? Find out right now on Total Drama Big Brother!

Chapter 35- It's Just Tep, Right?

The crowd was cheering as the cameras zoomed in on Julie and Chris.

"Welcome to Total Drama Big Brother. Tonight, Cody or Tep will be leaving the house and joining the Jury as we begin to wind down towards finale night." Julie stated.

"That's right. In the following weeks, most qcompetitions will take place in combination with each other along with live evictions." Chris added.

"However, we have tonight's eviction to get through before any of that. Conor has been on the fences with Cody lately and will look for any way to possibly evict him tonight." Julie stated.

"I thought Heather and Alejandro were bad enough. These two have it out for each other. I love it!" Chris exclaimed.

"What will happen tonight as the live eviction folds over? What about the Jury Members in the Jury House? How has life unfolded outside the BB House? All that and more later. Right now, let's see what Conor plans to do to save his best friend and ally in the house." Julie announced as the camera zoomed in on the monitor.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sayde closed the box as everyone started getting up. Cody and Ellie real close as Ellie has some doubts.

Ellie: I know I should be relieved that Cody won't be going home, but Conor is really on his trail. I have no idea what kind of measures this guy will go to get what he wants.

Cody and Ellie went to the Nature Room as Ellie grew a little worried.

"I'm really afraid Conor is going to try something." Ellie whispered.

"Don't worry, I'm well aware Conor could try to flip one of your votes." Cody stated.

"What if he makes Sayde gullible? I'll refuse to speak to him." Ellie stated.

"They practically hate each other. I doubt she would give him the time of day and he can't do what Harold did in Island since we vocally give out votes." Cody explained.

"So there's no possible way for you to go home." Ellie concluded.

"Unless somehow I'm injured and can't compete, I'm here for next week." Cody stated.

Cody: I'm well aware Conor can try something, but we have two other people he tried to convince. Ellie wouldn't listen to him and Sayde hates his guts. Still, I can't let him try either.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Tep went into the spare lounge area and sat down on one of the couches.

Tep(Nominee): I failed to win the Power of Veto and it looks like my time will come Thursday. I have to admit I never thought it would end in 6th place. I'm lucky I wasn't gone Week 1.

Tep started walking around the house and saying goodbye to various things in the house.

Tep(Nominee): I really feel like that this house will become a distant memory for me. I forget stuff very quickly so my eviction might become a blur.

Tep was in the backyard in his swim suit and dived into the pool. He punched a beach ball out of the pool.

Tep(Nominee): I had some good times in this backyard. No one knows where I had to take a big piss yet though. *looks around the room frantically* I have to get the tapes…

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Cody went up to the HOH Room and knocked on the door.

"What do you want?" Dana asked with a hand on her hip.

"I need some assurance about Conor. Do you guys have something going?" Cody asked.

"If you're talking about an alliance, somewhat." Dana replied.

"I figured. What's going on there?" Cody asked.

"We want you and Sayde out. Just the usual things." Dana replied.

"I see. Do you think he's up to anything about trying to get me out on Thursday?" Cody asked.

"I would do the same thing, but it's pointless. You have two votes to stay which means he's the only vote against you." Dana replied.

Cody(Nominee): I really hope she's right. Conor has gotten sneakier over the last couple weeks and I'm afraid he could try to swing a vote in his favor. Dana's not voting so that's a relief.

"Trust me, you ain't got nothing to worry about. Maybe if me and Conor could vote together, but I'm HOH so consider yourself lucky." Dana stated as she closed the door.

"Don't I ever." Cody added as he walked off.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The camera zoomed out on Julie and Chris as photos of Derek, Jela, Jose, Arnold and Kimberly were shown.

"They were evicted one by one and became the Jury Members. They each moved into the Jury House during their evictions and have had the time to wind down from being in the game." Julie explained.

"These five were some of the best players and they all got canned. They will have the ultimate decision on finale night to decide who best fits the bill for the prize money." Chris added.

"How has life outside the Big Brother House been for all these players? Let's take a look at how the perspective of this game change for these five individuals." Julie stated.

The camera zoomed in on the monitor showing the Jury House.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kimberly was chilling in her bikini on a lawn chair as Arnold took a dive in the pool.

Kimberly(Juror #5): Life outside the house is much grander as we get this whole luxurious life just to us. Although, the big money is what I wanted the most.

Arnold(Juror #4): I was finally defeated in this game and was evicted from the house, but I feel like I played this game to the best of my ability. I have a girlfriend in Jela and we get to have some time rekindling our relationship.

Jela was in the kitchen eating some grilled cheese as Derek passed through.

"This really sucks. I can't believe I was first out of the return spot." Derek cursed.

"You lost, windbag. Get over it." Jela stated.

"You lost as well. To your boyfriend's new lover at the most." Derek taunted.

"Yet he knows better after I slapped the sense back into him. I didn't kiss him on the cheek for nothing." Jela explained.

"Just what I needed at the moment, two people I don't really like very well." Jose stated.

Jose(Juror #3): As much as I'm happy that Arnold was evicted, him and his troublesome sister are the reason I'm here and not winning any money out of this.

"You think we want to be here any more than you do?" Jela asked.

"I'm the reason you're here in the first place, darling." Jose taunted.

"Yet you go out right after me. I consider that a win for myself." Jela retorted with a giggle.

"At least you both didn't become the first Jury Member. It's just embarrassing to me." Derek interjected.

"Just can it, you stupid jock." Jose retorted.

Derek(Juror #1): The guys were really rooting for me back home and I feel like I really failed them. Being the first member of the Jury isn't fun, but I get to decide who gets the money in the end. It's win-lose, but I win in the end.

Jela(Juror #2): I dealt with Arnold once he got into the house. He was going to pay for trying to cheat on me. Kimberly then begged for forgiveness for what she did and promised to never try that again. Best believe you won't try it again!

The five jurors sat around the living room discussing who they thought should win.

"You ask me...Cody has played this game fine and should be most deservable to win." Arnold stated.

"For once, I actually agree with Arnold. He didn't backstab me like so many of the others." Jose added.

"I think you both have it wrong in that department. Dana has shown she can be very sneaky and I think she could very well take this to the end of the game." Derek explained.

"Dana is a snake alright. Part of the reason I'm sitting here." Jose retorted.

"You just got unlucky." Derek stated.

"It's called I got screwed. The same happened to you." Jose retorted.

"Anyway, Conor has surprised me with how dirty he is willing to play so I think he is very favorable." Jela stated.

"Too bad he's going next week. Sayde has my vote if she makes the final two. She's a good competitor." Kimberly explained.

"She know how to escape an eviction as if her entire life depended on it. I give her props." Jose conceded.

"Who's likely to be in the final two?" Derek asked.

"Cody vs Sayde or Cody vs Conor. Dana and Ellie haven't really deserved it as much." Jela replied.

"Cody would take his girlfriend to the finals for an easy win." Derek added.

Jose(Juror #3): Finale night will be the deciding factor of who gets it and wants it more. I'm rooting for Cody to win and he better keep his promise about splitting the money with me. I don't really want him sharing it Arnold.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The cameras returned to Julie and Chris onstage.

"Coming up, the live vote and eviction and the battle to crown the next Head of Household." Julie announced.

The crowd started cheering as the wide shots showed the six houseguests all conversing with each other.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Big Brother returned as the crowd started cheering and clapping as the cameras zoomed in on Julie and Chris.

"Welcome back. Conor has it out for Cody and has tried already to make sure he goes out tonight. With moments to go before the live eviction, he has one last chance to make it count." Julie explained.

The camera zoomed in on the monitor to show Conor looking for Sayde and Ellie.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Conor was in the living room as he sat down with Sayde and Ellie in the nomination chairs.

"I'm really sorry for the way I've acted towards the both of you and Cody, but it's getting close to the end of the game and I can't screw this up." Conor stated.

"Your letting this game affect your judgement." Sayde retorted.

"You've been a jerk because of it." Ellie added.

"Sayde, I've caused you some grief, but don't you think a good move would be to get Cody out right now?" Conor asked.

"He's my biggest ally. Why would I screw it up for myself by voting him out?" Sayde asked.

"He can't get off the block, though. Ellie won't vote him out and you have no reason to vote out Tep. We can take him to the finale and beat him in the vote." Conor replied.

"Dissing on your own best friend?" Sayde asked.

"It's true. He's got no chance of winning and chances are after Cody hits the door, I'm going to. This is your chance to make a big move." Conor replied.

"Sayde, don't listen to him." Ellie pleaded.

"I ain't stupid." Sayde retorted.

"You would be without thinking this through. I'm thinking about your game and not trying too much to influence. It's called game perspective." Conor explained.

Sayde: I would be crazy to vote Cody out and lose a friend in Ellie. Having Cody get me this far is great and I'll be sure to eliminate him when it's good for my game. I wanna ride with him to the finale so getting him out would be stupid.

"Has he been in your ear since he got nominated?" Conor asked.

"We've talked mainly about your behavior." Sayde replied.

"See, I don't trust that. He's always talking and I know that's the point of the game, but he's trying to run it and control all of us." Conor stated.

Ellie: He's repeating himself again. Seriously, can we play back the tapes and see how much he said that same line?

"Can't you see where I'm coming from?" Conor asked.

"I do, but I don't think Cody would jeopardize our games. He's not using us like you probably would." Sayde replied.

Conor: He's gotten through to them and that's not right. Cody is a manipulator and no one can see that. He's been in cahoots with Jose and Arnold for pete sake! Why can't they see that he's just as maniacal as they are?!

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Julie returned onscreen as the monitor showed all six houseguests in the living room.

"It's time for the live eviction. Let's head to the the living room and speak with the houseguests." Julie stated.

Julie appeared on the TV as everyone knew what time it was.

"Houseguests, it's time for the live eviction. Cody, Tep, in just a few moments, your housemates will cast their votes to evict live. You may each now have one last chance to sway their votes with a brief statement. Cody, you may go first." Julie explained.

Cody got up as he smiled and looked at everyone.

"I've gotten so far in this game making allies with the right people and I know some people may not like my gameplay, but it's what benefits me and friends getting to the finale and having a good ol' friendship finale. I know not everyone is a fan of the friendship finale, but it will be grand. I wanna love you to mom and dad back home. You guys have been by my side. I also wanna say love you to my beautiful girlfriend, Ellie. Hopefully, I can stay here and finish this game strong." Cody explained.

Tep got up and cleared his throat.

"The curtain has dropped on my time here and I have one last time for a final joke: my entire run of this game. Seriously, I piss so many people off and I'm in the final six. I've lasted longer than most annoying people have ever done. Holy crap, does this mean something? Am I actually a great competitor? I may not be the best physically, but I sure know how to play mental mind games. What does this mean? I don't know, but I love misses back home and I know she'll laugh her ass off about this, but, hey, no sex for a week. Thank you, America!" Tep stated as he sat back down.

Julie and the crowd couldn't contain their laughter as Dana scoffed while Sayde, Ellie, Conor and Cody chuckled and giggled.

"Thank you, Tep. Very revealing. Anyway, the two nominees aren't allowed to vote and Dana, as current HOH, you aren't allowed to vote either. This leaves Conor, Sayde and Ellie to enter the Diary Room and cast their votes to evict. Ellie, you're up first." Julie announced.

Ellie went to the Diary Room as he left the living room.

"Ellie is in a showmance with Cody so her vote should be the other way. Hello Ellie." Julie announced.

"Hey Julie." Ellie greeted.

"Please cast your vote to evict." Julie ordered.

"I vote to evict my dear friend, Tep." Ellie voted.

"Thank you, Ellie. Conor is best friends with Tep so he could go ahead and vote against Cody. Hello Conor." Julie greeted.

"Hey Julie." Conor greeted.

"Please cast your vote to evict." Julie ordered.

"Not like it matters, but I vote to evict Cody." Conor voted.

"Thank you, Conor. Sayde gets the deciding vote so who will she choose to vote for? Hello Sayde." Julie greeted.

"Hey Julie." Sayde greeted.

"Please cast your vote to evict." Julie ordered.

"My game is very important and I need a strong player around. I vote to evict Tep." Sayde voted.

"Thank you, Sayde." Julie praised.

Sayde got up and went back to the living room sitting next to Ellie.

"The votes are in. Let's give the news to the houseguests," Julie announced. "Houseguests, the results are in. When I reveal the vote, the evicted houseguest will have a few moments to say their goodbyes, gather his belongings and walk out the front door. By a vote of 2-1, Tep, you are evicted from the Big Brother House." Julie announced.

Tep got up and did a bow as he hugged Sayde, Conor, Ellie and Cody. He walked to the front and grabbed his bag saying his final goodbye disappearing out the front door. Tep got a huge cheer as he came over shaking hands with Julie and Chris setting his bag down and sitting in his chair. The five remaining houseguests gathered around the Memory Wall as Tep's pictured faded to black.

"That must've been a very predictable outcome to come out of." Julie stated.

"Yeah, but still, it gave me a chance to run over my speech. Only was about a five minute preparation." Tep explained as the crowd laughed.

"Man, you are killer, bro." Chris commented.

Tep bowed again as Julie moved on with her questions.

"So how do you feel about your alliance with Conor?" Julie asked.

"I feel it went well and he helped me just as much as I tried to help him. He's a little misguided at the moment, but I still think of him as my best friend." Tep replied.

"You're a very forgivable person." Chris stated.

"I give and take depending on the person. Conor isn't bad, but this game is getting to him and I just hope he doesn't blow it and gets his act together in the future." Tep explained.

"Well, since you were the one being evicted tonight, your housemates taped some goodbye messages for you. Let's watch." Julie stated as the three looked towards the monitor.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Dana: Can't say I'm shocked, but I guess I will miss our little quarrels. The money is on the line and I can't have you being dead weight out behind me. See ya and wouldn't want to be ya!

Conor: Tep man...I tried is all I can say and I hope you aren't mad at me. Cody was supposed to sitting out there, but I can always get him next time, but it's going to be hard. You are my best friend and I can't wait til you come to Tennessee with me.

Ellie: I'm going to miss all those free comedy shows you did in the house. I think you're funny and sweet even at your most inappropriate times. Have fun with your wife and see you on the outside!

Cody: It's really hard to see you go, but I need to be here to bring Conor back to the light. You did the best game you could and I respect you for that. Keep it real, man!

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Well, you're off to the Jury House. Thank you for playing." Julie stated.

Tep shook hands with Julie and Chris as Julie turned to the camera.

"Tune in Sunday for the Head of Household competition and see who they nominate for eviction? Then, at special times Wednesday and Thursday, there will be two live eviction on each day. We wind down to finale night this week. For right now, let's eavesdrop on the houseguests. From outside the Big Brother House, I'm Julie Chen saying goodnight." Julie announced as the crowd started cheering very loudly.

The Jury:

-Derek

-Jela

-Jose

-Arnold

-Kimberly

-Tep
