Dan's frustration spilled over in another scene that did not make it to air and again changes the context of what would follow at the funeral as he lit into Danielle as the players waited to enter the house at the conclusion of the veto competition. He didn't have to be a phony and have little conversations with people. Before we got nominated, Frank came up to me and was like, "Would you ever turn against Dan? I'm not scared of making a deal with the devil." JENN ARROYO: This didn't make it to TV, but I remember vividly asking, "Can I ask a question?" If you run into him on the street, ask him about himself, not Dan Gheesling. It didn't take that much to see it, but it was very clear. SHANE MEANEY: She didn't disclose a lot of stuff to me. I don't know what's going to work and what's not. I was like, "I can do this. No!". Stop crying, Britney.". That segment should live in the Big Brother Hall of Fame. I think she saw through it. The funeral was the mist at the most powerful point. The only two choices left are [Joe Arvin] and [Jenn City Arroryo], and we'd have the votes to just vote them out regardless. It was something that made me relatable to Joe and made Joe feel I was being genuine. I'm upset, I'm angry, but I still have a competition to win. He's just doing this because this is his way of trying to stay in the house. It ate me alive, and that moment still breaks my heart. And then it's just like, "Okay, Is Ian still onboard?" It's gone now. What I do have is information. Did I need that? JULIE CHEN: I think it probably is the single greatest moment in Big Brother history. He . BRITNEY HAYNES: I 100 percent think I would have gotten it had Frank not whispered it. But that's revisionist history. Most people in the funeral profession have their own (usually quite personal) idea of what the answer to this question should be. Nope. Ultimately, in the end, I believe the reason why Dan did not win is because no one wanted him to win twice. I didn't realize that Frank was going to take what happened with Ian out on me. So I'm like, "I can't. It's the worst-case scenario, but I'm not willing to give up. No. So I tried to run the same playbook I did in my first season. I don't know if I'd cry, scream, or yell. He is being selfish and doesn't really give a s about me. I really don't. I remember Joe got upset, and they had to go back and look at some tape. It obviously seemed a little desperate. I was disgusted that Ian knew Dan was going to do that and didn't tell me. It's embarrassing getting sent home and knowing that it was all because of a 21-year-old kid and the Quack Pack that they let him name so he'd feel a part of the team. I felt like I could always see it, starting with the way he always addressed me as Mrs. Chen. Before Dan headed into the great beyond, he explained that he didn't want people to be sad, but to celebrate his life and everything he has achieved by vlogging his cancer journey. JENN ARROYO: I voted for Ian because I thought, "Damn, this kid is beating out a legend in the game." Click here if you would like to make a donation. This is so ridiculous. Pretty much the only two people who would be willing to vote for Dan were myself and Jenn City. He put him on the block, so we were like, "It sucks to lose part of the Quack Pack but at this point in the game we could lose one it's no big deal. It's taken a long time for me to get strong though, to be honest. I'm like, "Can we get this thing over with?". SHANE MEANEY: At that point, I was still very bitter. I was fine with Jenn winning. And the genesis of that strategy would harken back to both season 10 and the seething rage Dan was feeling at Danielle over the just-completed Veto competition. "Oh, there's water in the cup, water in the cup, water in the cup. SHANE MEANEY: It was bad, but God has a plan and maybe I had to go through something to learn something. BRITNEY HAYNES: Dan was supposed to throw the competition. DAN GHEESLING: Yeah, I remember that. Britney's a more dangerous player. Think about your best friend saying something horrific to you, not wanting to hear your side of it, and knowing that you had done nothing besides protect him the entire time. However, I did what I had to do. This whole thing is a complete hail Mary. We're still good to go.". Dan is fantastic at questioning other people and getting other people to talk about themselves without having to say anything about himself. Then it's like, "We need to review some footage.". Where to get support. I remember it was like 10 minutes. And she was like, "Well, I wanted to be a woman of my word." (Think Dan's attack on Danielle was really all a ruse to gain her sympathy and make it appear as if the two were not working together? Let me try and do something like that again." We talked about it at the roundtable. The guy's not dying! You're just accepting that that's a vote Dan never gets now. I could not believe the words coming out of his mouth. It's the most epic moment in the history of Big Brother. All the emotions were still very new. I'm like, "Okay I had a house meeting, it went over well in the first season. You've got to get every question from here on out if you want to stay in this game.". So I threw the kid my vote. That's putting a ton of faith into people. He would've gotten very protective. S, Shane's crying! I just wanted to reiterate to him, "Hey, we're friends," and boost the ego a little bit. ", DAN GHEESLING: I wanted to disarm everyone and let them think I'm done playing the game, so that's the only thing I could think of to make sense. It was a lot to wrap my head around. IAN TERRY: I know Dan likes to make a big spectacle of everything, right? IAN TERRY: Even though I was that mad at Frank, I knew he made the right play, and I actually was more impressed that Frank had the balls to do it than I was that Dan was able to get himself pulled down. And now his Big Brother life has just blown up in front of him." EXPLAINED: Queen's funeral bank holiday working rules and days off guidance. He's trying to get sympathy votes if he can. I was like, "Oh, it was just another meeting. I'm like, "Poor Dan, what a guy. DANIELLE MURPHREE: I didn't speak to Dan for a really long time after the show.

I don't like having to vote out those that I feel like I already have a connection with because I've seen them on TV. While the other players were already making plans for life in the house without Dan, inside the solitary confinement room, a diabolical scheme was beginning to take shape. I was so mad at Ian that last week. Everything's going to be fine and she trusts me.". I can't promise that, I'm sorry.". It's like a light being turned off and being plunged into sudden blackness; slowly, your eyes adjust and soon you are able . I'm that loyal of a person.
