The Big Brother broadcast began on Day 59 following the Nomination Ceremony, which had featured Cameron putting Felicia and Mecole on the chopping block next to each other.
Cameron explained to the cameras how Felicia was his real target for the Big Brother week.
"Mecole is the most likely to pull her down off of the block, and I cannot have Felicia go into the jury -- because I believe that she will sway the entire jury against me. So, pack your bags and take them back to Georgia," Cameron said in the Diary Room.
Meanwhile, Cory -- who was in a four-person Big Brother alliance with Felicia, Mecole and America Lopez -- admitted he felt "relieved" because that alliance wasn't as real as what he had with America, Matt Klotz, and Jag Bains.
"While I'm not thrilled my allies are on the block, I'm happy my actual allies are not," Cory quipped. "So I'm okay with what's going to happen this week."
Cirie Fields said she wanted to blend into the wallpaper and play under the radar, and Mecole noted how it was heartbreaking to be on the block next to Felicia because they had made a Final 2 deal with each other.
"Even though Cameron had told me I'm a pawn this week, you can never really feel too safe. And so my only option is to secure the Veto," Mecole explained to the cameras.
After Cory and America were shown kissing in bed and getting hot over the U.S. Constitution, Cameron confessed to Felicia that he couldn't picture himself working with her down the road.
"You're very good at talking to people, and I don't want you in the jury house," Cameron told Felicia to her face.
Felicia told Cameron that she was "offended" by the notion she'd attempt to turn people against him in the Big Brother jury house.

Felicia explained in the Big Brother Diary Room how Cory was running his mouth about how she had approached him to make a Final 4 deal when, "in reality, they approached us." Footage then flashed back to Day 58 when Felicia and Mecole had vented to each other about Cory's betrayal.
"He plays the innocent, little, young 20-year-old kid that he is. So I'm hoping that by telling Cameron this little tidbit about Cory, it will have him sniffing down Cory's tail instead of mine," Felicia shared to the cameras.

Cameron wrapped up the conversation by saying in the Diary Room that while he understood Cory was a "dangerous" player, he still wanted Felicia gone first.
Felicia began praying that she'd be able to win the Big Brother Power of Veto competition and save herself.
"I'm going to see you next week!" Felicia boasted to Cameron.
For Blue Kim's part, she wished that Cameron would target Cory instead -- but she didn't plan on going against him since they had just begun working together.

Matt was Cameron's "Houseguest's Choice," and Blue was Mecole's "Houseguest's Choice."
In Mecole's mind, Blue was looking for someone to work with, and so she wanted to be that Big Brother houseguest.
"If I win, hopefully I can take [Mecole] down and convince Cameron to put Cory up instead," Blue explained to the cameras.
The Power of Veto competition kicked off with the houseguests watching a trailer for a new movie titled The Exorcist Believer.
The players learned they were about to come face to face with the demonic children and that the winner of the PoV would be able to select three houseguests to join him or her for a private screening of the scary movie.
The Big Brother competition required the participating houseguests to play one at a time. They were instructed to perform a "BB exorcism" in order to "save two young girls" by searching the entire house for clues scratched into the walls.
These clues would help a houseguest find four items needed to perform a BB exorcism. Once a player found all of the items needed, he or she could continue on to the living room, where a pair of possessed girls would be waiting for them.

Once a player reached the girls, he or she would place the four items around them and then scream, "The power of BB compels you!" This would complete the BB exorcism and stop a player's time.
The Big Brother houseguest to complete the exorcism in the fastest time would win the golden Power of Veto.
Following the competition, the Scary-verse ultimately sent down the Top 3 times. Felicia was convinced she didn't win.
Blue finished in third place with a time of nine minutes and 15 seconds, Mecole placed second with a time of eight minutes and 22 seconds, and Cameron won the competition with a time of seven minutes and 59 seconds.

Cory told Blue that she'd like to target Cameron next week, but his actual next target was Blue.
Blue thought this was the perfect opportunity to throw Cory under the bus and turn Cameron against him. She said Cory had given her "the perfect ammunition" to possibly change Cameron's mind.
"He is very comfortable and cocky," Cameron noted in his conversation with Blue.
He proceeded to say in the Diary Room, "Yes, Felicia is my target, but if I have imminent danger, I'm going to shift fire and take care of the thing that's the biggest target right now... I'm trying to make a strategic move this week."
Before the Big Brother Veto Meeting, Cameron picked Blue, Jag and Matt to watch The Exorcist Believer with him. He opted to have "The Fugitives" join him, adding how he'd like Blue to join their alliance.
Cameron then spoke to Jag and Matt about how Cory was going to gun for him next week, according to Blue.
Cameron therefore told the guys that they should let Felicia believe that she'd be leaving the Big Brother house, only to flip the script on Cory.
"I'm going to pull her off of the damn block and put Cory there next to Meme," Cameron announced to his pals.
"And Cory will go home. And we will get out the smartest and sharpest player in this house, and The Fugitives will roll over everybody here."
Matt told the Big Brother cameras that he thought it would be great to backdoor Cory, mainly because he and Jag -- who were working with Cory -- didn't want to take that shot. Matt admitted he didn't want that type of heat on him.
Jag, however, confessed that he didn't agree with Cameron's plot. Jag didn't want to have to choose between Big Brother alliances and show his cards too early.

"If I go ahead and get rid of Cory now, Jag is definitely not working with Cory," Cameron said. "I want to work with The Fugitives from here on out."
The Big Brother episode concluded with the Veto Meeting.
Mecole stood up and said she was going to respect whatever Cameron decided, and then Felicia got up on her feet and announced how Cory had thrown Meme and herself under the bus.
"We did not approach him about a Final 4. He approached US about a Final 4," Felicia declared.
"So I might go home on Thursday and that's okay. Because you know what? I play a brutally honest Felicia game, and that is all that matters to me!"
