Whether or not Brendon's decision to fall on his sword for Rachel remains to be seen on Big Brother. This week, he won the POV only to turn around and use it on his fiance, pulling her off the block. Last night, he was voted out of the Big Brother house and we talked to him today in an exclusive interview about his second time around playing the game.

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: The newbies had the numbers to take all of you out in the beginning. Why didn't they?
A. Brendon: Because they couldn't win competitions. We were trouncing them.

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: How far do you feel the veterans could have gone together as a group, if you had all stayed together?
A. Brendon: I think absolutely 100% we could have at least put one if not two people in the final two if the veterans had stuck together.

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: Was there any part of you that considered saving yourself if/when you won POV or was your plan always to save Rachel?
A. Brendon: My plan was pretty much always to save Rachel but of course, I did consider using it on myself. But, it wasn't something I would do.

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: Rachel often worries that the fans don't like her. What can she do to change people's minds about her and what do you want people to know about the person she is both in and outside the game?
A. Brendon: Rachel is a caring, beautiful person who has an enormously huge heart and her and I have been through a lot, both inside and outside of the game. Inside the house, you often see someone who doesn't deal well with mean people.

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: After your fiance, who did you trust the most in the house?
A. Brendon: Probably Jeff. But again, even in saying that, I really didn't trust him too much because nobody in the game was in a remotely similar situation as Rachel and I.

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: How was playing the game this time around different than last year?
A. Brendon: It was much easier this time around because I knew what to expect, I have a good idea of how things well turn out and I didn't have the initial insecurities about my own competitive game play.

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: Any final words?
A. Brendon: Thank you to everybody who has been supportive. Especially for those fans who were there for us last year and were again there for us this year. And we will definitely be figuring out a way to include the fans in our wedding.
