PoV competition. Since we're down to six players, nobody's sitting this out. They all come out into the backyard in safari clothes, to find the yard transformed into a jungle setting, with bananas scattered everywhere. They have to stand in front of a giant gorilla carving named "Otev" ("'Veto' spelled backwards," Jordan eurekas in the DR), out of which comes the voice of Casey. Who, as everyone remembers, left the house in a banana suit, and has now agreed to compound his humiliation by returning as the voice of a competition with a theme in keeping with his defeat. Well, they had to ask him back before the school year started, I guess. The producers indulge him by letting him rap an intro to the PoV game. But what about us, producers? What about us? Otev will also "rap" questions about about former houseguests, and then they'll all have to race around the yard to find bananas with the right name on it. We get some more "ratcheting" "up" of the "tension" about the upcoming contest. Just get on with it already.
The answer to the first question is Ronnie. Jordan and Michele are the last to find their bananas, and then they have various difficulties climbing back up the oiled, smooth ramp to present their answers to Otev. Jordan was the last one up the ramp, so she's eliminated. She DRs that Jeff is going to be mad at her. This hour, what else is new?
In the second round, everyone gets it right again, but Natalie is the last, so she's out. She goes and pouts on the loser's bench next to Jordan about how she never wins anything. Funny, she didn't say that at the beginning of the season. In the third round, Jeff bypasses the climbing rope entirely, bounding up the ramp like the big showoff he's turning into. Kevin and Russell are the last to deliver their bananas, but since Kevin beats him by a hair, Russell has to face his "pet peeve" of losing. Now he's just hoping Michele will win the PoV. And, of course, failing that, that Jeff isn't actually going to do what he's been telegraphing he's going to do for days now.
That leaves Jeff, Michele and Kevin, with Jeff again up the ramp first, followed by Michele, so Kevin's out. Kevin joins the losers and prays for a win from Jeff, thinking that's his only chance of survival. Obviously, Russell's rooting for Michele. In the last round, Jeff starts messing with Michele's head, and ultimately wins it, giving himself the Veto, the power to decide what he's going to do with it, and the power to brag about it a lot in the DR.
