Although disappointed in his male alliance, Frankie appeared to leave the house with no hard feelings, as he was well aware the other houseguests probably viewed him as a huge "glittery" target. The week's Head of Household, Caleb Reynolds, bragged that he "knocked out Goliath."
Prior to Frankie's ouster, he was surprised Caleb, his closest ally in the house, had nominated him for eviction. Victoria was placed on the chopping block for the eighth time yet felt confident Frankie would be going home before her.
Derrick Levasseur determined he needed to win the Power of Veto or it was absolutely necessary for Caleb or Cody Calafiore to win it. The guys' alliance wanted to send Frankie packing, so if either Frankie or Victoria won the veto, they'd be in trouble.
Caleb, however, attempted to keep Frankie in the dark by telling him to win the veto so he could name Derrick the replacement nominee and then send Victoria to the jury house.
When Frankie asked Caleb why things came down to his nomination, Caleb admitted the guys feared Frankie would turn on them. Caleb said if Frankie wasn't on the block and won the veto, they worried he might take Victoria off the block and then force either Cody or Derrick to go home. Caleb wouldn't be an option since he served as the week's HoH.
Frankie was shocked to hear Caleb's explanation because he thought he was proving his loyalty to the guys' alliance week after week. Frankie thought the move was ridiculous and felt completely blindsided. Cody and Derrick were pissed Caleb ran his mouth about how they had been conspiring against Frankie.
However, with Frankie and Victoria both on the block, Cody won the Power of Veto and opted to keep Caleb's nominations the same.
Frankie hoped the guys would choose "honor" over "greed" and keep him in the game, but that was apparently wishful thinking.
The episode concluded with Derrick being crowned the new Head of Household. Now, only four houseguests remain. As the only remaining member of the "Team America" alliance, Derrick learned he will receive an extra $50,000 -- on top of the $500,000 grand prize -- if he wins Big Brother's sixteenth season.
