for 70-90 days fighting week to week to survive elimination. Once you make it to the final 2, you have 60 seconds to answer 7-9 group questions by the jury. If you even go 30 seconds into your answer and you sound like you're going to talk long, you are cut off by the host and you won't be able to explain anything or change the minds of the jury.
You lose the game. $500,000 gone from the tip of your hands due to lies, manipulation, and a typical rushed Big Brother finale.
