Tiffany Rousso, a 32-year-old high school teacher who currently resides in Palm Beach Gardens, FL, was evicted from the Big Brother house through a unanimous 8-0 vote instead of Natalie Negrotti, a 26-year-old event coordinator who currently resides in Franklin Park, NJ, and Da.Vonne Rogers, a 28-year-old poker dealer from Los Angeles, CA.

Da'Vonne had been the secret BB Roadkill winner's nomination, and she knew Tiffany had won it. Meanwhile, Natalie and Tiffany -- the sister of Big Brother Season 17 player Vanessa Rousso -- had been nominated by this week's Head of Household Paulie Calafiore.

The Big Brother broadcast began with Da'Vonne saying Tiffany and Frank Eudy were waiting for her to explode and make a scene but she wasn't going to give them that satisfaction. Da'Vonne told Paulie the pair probably intended to campaign all week to get her out, but Paulie assured her that she'd be safe.

In the event of a four-four tie, Paulie would cast the tie-breaking vote to send Tiffany home, his main target.

As for love in the house, Natalie and James Huling finally confessed their feelings to one another. They are an official BB showmance going forward.

Frank then told Paulie and Corey Brooks that if they kept Tiffany in the house, she would be alone and most likely go after one of the girls -- not the guys. Frank said if Da'Vonne stuck around longer, she'd have more influence over the girls, which made for a great reason to take her out now.

Meanwhile, Tiffany tried to get Nicole Franzel on her side by telling her that Da'Vonne lied to every person in the house and even spilled the beans about their alliance with Paulie, Zakiyah Everette and Corey. Nicole questioned Da'Vonne's loyalty and certainly wasn't happy about what she was leaking.

Tiffany then attempted to establish more trust with Paulie. Paulie told Tiffany it was only a matter of time that Da'Vonne went after him, and Tiffany explained that she'd have his back, wouldn't target him, and would do anything that he asked of her. It sounded like a pretty sweet deal to Paulie at the time.

Da'Vonne noticed Tiffany was getting all buddy-buddy with the houseguests, which made her very nervous. Da'Vonne told James they needed to cut up the showmances -- Nicole and Corey as well as Zakiyah and Paulie -- however, James didn't like hearing that plan since he was now in a showmance with Natalie.

Although James acknowledged he was on the bottom of Da'Vonne's target list, he didn't appreciate being on it at all. Afterward, James spoke to Paulie about what had just transpired, and Paulie grew very suspicious of Da'Vonne.

Once Tiffany was evicted from the house, which was clearly not a blindside, she sat down to talk with Big Brother host Julie Chen.

Tiffany said that Da'Vonne had pitted her and Frank against each other, and in getting to the bottom of it, Tiffany got close to Frank. She realized at that point the people she had become closest to in the game were actually her biggest enemies in the house.

Julie pointed out that Tiffany seemed solid with the "Fatal 5" and "8 Pack" alliances at first. Tiffany explained that she discovered information telling her she wasn't aligned with the right people. She also got in her own head too much.

Tiffany said if she had a chance to play the game again, she wouldn't be so emotional. However, she was very proud of herself for playing a loyal game and didn't regret anything.

The episode concluded with Julie Chen revealing the team twist has officially come to an end, meaning only two nominees will face eviction every week. And with that, the BB Roadkill competition is also over.

While the houseguests breathed sighs of relief, Julie disclosed that "more twists and secrets" are to come.
