********************************

Julie is wearing an orange flowy kind of dress that is really not slimming. She hints to us that the teams will be ending. Then we're into "previously on." Yep, the narrator confirms the teams are ending. Good.

Julie tells us the Kings are the only complete team left. She will tell them later tonight that the teams are history.

Christian is hoping for a unanimous vote to oust Whitney. Hannah is thinking that people might be noticing how analytical she is and think of her as a threat. So far it seems to be only SarahBeth and Whitney noticing it.

Tiffany tells us that she feels closest to Hannah, they think alike and even now have a final two deal. The Cookout is supporting Hannah but Tiffany points out that SarahBeth is coming after Hannah ... and thus needs to be targeted.

Meanwhile, SarahBeth is trying to convince Kyland that Hannah is dangerous in the game. He's the only person in the game she trusts. It's a friendship, not a showmance! Kyland thinks very highly of her but tells us he would have to choose the Cookout over her.

Tiffany works to get the Cookout members to partner a non-Cookout member to act as a bit of a shield to make it further in the game. Tiffany is a bit worried about SarahBeth, but goes ahead and includes her in the plan.

Now we get Whitney looking for votes. Christian is trying to walk like Derek F but doesn't have they rhythm. Tiffany seems to have a bug in her bonnet because no one answered her good morning greeting. It was Kyland, Xavier and SarahBeth. Now Tiffany is worried about Kyland and SarahBeth's relationship.

Azah goes to Tiffany saying that a King must go home. Azah doesn't trust Hannah and realizes that she cannot talk to Tiffany about it. Oh geez ... Whitney goes into her one on one meetings, starting with Alyssa. She tells Alyssa that Hannah has been moving in on Christian and can manipulate him and that she would likely target her (Alyssa). Alyssa buys what she's selling, it seems. She runs to Christian with the intel. Christian, not knowing about the Cookout votes, thinks he can persuade them to target Hannah if he wants. Or, so the show edit tells us!

To the living room ...

Hannah is wearing athletic gear, Whitney a dress.

Hannah - Shout outs but don't want to see soon, then briefly addresses hamsters.

Whitney - Shout outs, make up sessions, weird but love you to death. She tells them to vote for her. Mind you, the votes for her would be for eviction.

The votes to evict:

Derek F - Whitney

Britini - Whitney

Azah - Whitney

Kyland - Whitney

Alyssa - Whitney

SarahBeth - Whitney

Claire - Whitney

Derek X - Whitney

Tiffany - Whitney

Xavier - Whitney

It's unanimous, Whitney is gone. Hopefully the last house vote? Please? We hate that stuff! 

Whitney tells Julie that she is out because she was an advocate for women empowerment and making big moves. The men are scared of her. Yeah, sure. That's why. Julie tells her about the Royal Flush. All the goodbye messages shown are nice ones. To be honest, she really didn't raise much animosity in the house. Azah was the one with the most against her due to jealousy over Xavier, but she even said that and was nice.

Julie tells them that the teams are being eliminated. They are happy. I notice that the Kings are rather subdued. The Wild Card comp is also gonzo.

They head to the backyard and we head into a commercial.

The comp will barely start ... make sure you go to the next post for coverage after the show ends!

It's a wall comp. Whale of a Time. The wall is a huge whale watching ship. It's raining on them and tilting.
