“Honestly, if I am going to go before finale night, that’s the way I want to go. I don’t have to watch any goodbye messages. I don’t have to pack my bag. As harsh as it is, it is a quick and painless death,” Brett said the morning after he was backdoored.

While Haleigh had ample time to come to grips with her looming eviction, Brett was completely thrown off and feels ultimately betrayed by the people he had been so loyal to. He does, however, understand why they chose to take advantage of the moment and cut him when they did.

“I think Tyler made a move. The only threat he saw in the game was me, as a physical and even mental, in some capacity. So, he took his shot and it was based on the veto in terms of how he would go about it,” he said.

“What might have spooked Tyler is that I went to him with a Final 2, within our alliance, and he saw that if I was willing to turn against Level 6, it would either secure my position with Tyler by saying let’s get one of the girls out, or it would blow up in my face. It was a gamble.”

Now that Haleigh and Brett are headed to the jury house, they’ll help name the season’s $500,000 winner. Yet the Massachusetts-based cybersecurity engineer believes the finale will be a heated and emotional one.

“I’ll tell you this right now, jury is going to be as bitter as ever. We had some very upset people who played very personal games. I think we are going to see a very bitter jury,” he said.

Haleigh, on the other hand, has her eyes on a few potential players, who she feels deserve the title. “I’m going to have to say Angela and Kaycee [Clark] are both playing a very good game,” she shared.
