Big Brother: Over The Top Day 64 - The Final 3 make their pleas to America
November 30, 2016
The Final 3 were given two minutes to make their plea to America as to why they deserve to win the game. They were as follows:
Jason: America, thank you so much for voting me in this house. I am forever grateful. As the only returnee, I came in this house as a massive target and had to win the very first veto to ensure my safety. In the moving on weeks, I created an insurance policy with people from the other side like Alex and Scott, but knowing the whole time that the minute that that coverage plan didn’t work for me I was cancelling it. I played a very proactive game. I was never complacent. I didn’t sit around and let anyone do anything for me. If I felt there was something I needed to do, I went out and did it. When Danielle came into power, I was able to persuade her back and forth quite a few times to change her target to the target that would most benefit my long term game. When you, America, gave me my Co-HoH care package, I knew that I had to hijack that week from Shelby. I did just that by winning my second Power of Veto and getting out a strategist anchor like Alex. When the double eviction was over, I knew that I would be remaining a target so I concocted a plan that would make Danielle a bigger target than me and it so happened to have worked. After Danielle’s departure, I knew that I was remaining a target but I won my third and final Power of Veto and the final HoH comp, ensuring my spot here in the Final 3. Kryssie has made very smart, strategic moves in this game but would she have been able to do so if she didn’t have people like me and Danielle winning the competitions? She also did not intermingle with the other alliance really until the tail end of the game. Morgan came in here as a twist. That meant she had more information than anyone else in the game but never really made any powerhouse, game changing moves. I am a Big Brother historian/superfan. I have been in these BB streets for decades, studying the fundamentals, history and science of this game. I have had the steepest road to the top, that included quitting smoking and a bruised rib, but I was able to persevere with my skills in lying and persuasion, and also maintaining being myself and having fun. America, superfans, live feedsters, I hope that you respect this supermarket, basement dwellers game and see that I never took one day for granted in this house, and you grant me the honour of being the first ever winner of BBOTT. Thank you.
Kryssie: Nine weeks in two minutes. Here it is. After spending the first three weeks nominated, I won the first HoH competition for my alliance and used that HoH to actually intermingle with Whitney and build a strong working relationship with her. When she was scorned by her alliance in Week 5, she confided in me the best piece of information that I could have asked for for my strategy. Her alliance wasn’t in fact attacking me. They were trying to establish me as a perpetual pawn so that they could take me to the end and I would be easy to beat. Armed with that information, I went into the double eviction knowing that I couldn’t disappoint my public. I elected to throw the tiebreaker, as much as it grossed me out, so I wouldn’t be the first person in the house with two HoHs. The target that would have landed on my back landed firmly on Danielle’s. Later that night I was able to flip Danielle to save Justin in the double, knowing full well that he would stay 100% loyal to me but he would immediately turn on Danielle as soon as someone let him know that he was her initial target and he had to be fought for. His predictability paid off for me the following week when he had established a working alliance with Shelby and Morgan and I piggybacked my way onto it into a Final 3 alliance with those lovely ladies, under the condition that Danielle would be our target that week and Jason would be back burnered for one more to fight another day. Saving Jason with my care package in Week 2 and back burnering him in Week 7 are not coincidence. They are strategy. I made a Final 2 alliance with Jason on night two that I knew was risky. I knew that riding or dying with someone who no one else wanted to touch with a ten foot pole in this game might pay off or might get me sent out of here, but I didn’t come here to be afraid of end game threats. I came her to play a smart, loyal and strategic game that maybe had me fly under the radar sometimes. I had to make moves when I had to make them. My investment in Jason paid off, getting me standing here right now in the Final 3. I didn’t come here as the smart girl who pretended to be a waitress so she could look dumb and unsuccessful. I came here as the 100% unapologetic real life waitress. Maybe I did quit college to become a rockstar, but I learned so much in my 12 years in the service industry. Those people skills that I learned the whole time are what carried me to the end cause they knew they could trust me. I have also learned that teamwork behind the scenes will always make your work look exponentially better. Now the game is over, America. All the tabs are filled out and all that is left for you guys to fill out the tip line. If you feel so inclined to put 250 Gs on my tip line, they are going to have to invent a new word for how hard I am going to ugly cry. Thank you so much for being involved every single week. I love and cherish every last one of you from the bottom of my butt cause it’s like eight times bigger than my heart. Thank you.
Morgan: I never thought in a million years that I would be sitting here in this position. It has been a long journey full of so many ups and downs, but I can honestly say I never let this game break my spirit. I am the only person left standing in my alliance and my side of the house. I am the only America’s Nominee who survived and is in this game right now. I hope those points prove to you that I am a fighter and I deserve this $250,000. All of us have played very different games but I think I can say that I have played a great social game. I embraced the role of the non-threat cause I knew it would take me far in this game. i showed that when my back is against the wall I can win competitions to get me farther in this game. Hence why I am standing here right now. I did have a twist. I played this game with a sister and I had to hide that this whole entire time. If you think this game is stressful playing just yourself, try worrying about yourself and a sibling in this game. I knew Week 1 coming in here that I wasn’t going to be the biggest superfan strategist and I wasn’t going to be the biggest personality. I was going to embrace the role of being that non-threat. It kind of sucks to say that but I knew it would work and I knew that being likeable would take me very far in this game. There was a big house division but I worked half of this game making sure that I was well liked by that side of the house. I made sure week to week that every single person in my alliance was a bigger threat than me. They all went before me. When numbers dwindled, I showed that I could win my way to where I am right now. I won the HoH that got me to the Final 4 and I won the head to head challenge that got me to the Final 3. That shows that I didn’t have to piggyback off of anyone else. I won my way here fair and square. I hope America that you do see I worked so hard to get here. I might be the underdog but I fought my way here. I might not have made as many big game moves but I knew exactly what to do to get to this point. A vote for me would mean the absolute world to me. A vote for me is not only a vote for myself but it’s a vote for every single one of my alliance members who went out that door before me. For Alex, Shelby, Whitney, Scott, even Monte. I am still here fighting because of them. It would just mean the world to me if you voted for me. For the last time ever, bikini girl out.
