Watch Rylie Jeffries Confront Mickey Lee After She Steals His HoH in ‘Big Brother 27’ Sneak Peek (Exclusive) originally appeared on Parade.
Sunday’s episode of Big Brother 27 was one for the books. In what some fans are calling the best episode in recent memory, Rylie Jeffries‘s balance skills earned him the title of Head of Household for Week 4. But, hearing she and her allies may be in trouble, Mickey Lee chose to activate her “HoH Interrogation” power, hoping to steal it from under his nose.
What followed was Rylie putting his best detective skills to work, as he interrogated the house to figure out who the culprit was. Unfortunately, he roped a red herring in Ashley Hollis, incorrectly guessing it was her. As a result, Mickey immediately became the new HoH, revealing her deception to him. In an exclusive sneak peek of tonight’s 90-minute episode, we get to see the full extent of Rylie’s reaction to losing his seat of power. And, to put it mildly, the bull rider is seeing red.

In the clip above, Rylie furiously packs up his belongings outside the HoH room that he had possession of for only a couple of hours. “I’m pissed,” he says in the Diary Room. “I have never seen anyone take somebody’s HoH away from them. And if I’m the first one in history to have this happen to them, I can tell you right now, it’s a great way to piss somebody off.” (To challenge Rylie’s Big Brother knowledge a bit, there have been a few times through the show’s 25-year run that we’ve seen an HoH get dethroned, most recently Angela Murray in last year’s season.)
Clearly sensing his anger, Mickey cautiously approaches Rylie, asking to clear the air. Initially, he rebuffs her, saying, “I don’t want to talk to you, Mickey. Hell no.” He does eventually acquiesce, as the two go into the boxing-themed Have-Not Room for an appropriately-themed bout between them.
“I think you really messed up,” he states. “Because we could have done something together, Mickey.”
Mickey replies with the reasoning we saw on Sunday’s episode. She had caught word that Rylie was targeting her, Ashley and Morgan Pope, and so she wanted to prevent that from happening. Rylie goes on to admit in the DR that he was considering those nomination options, but he was open to the possibility of not putting Mickey up if they had worked something out.
“You f–king backstabbed me,” Rylie bluntly tells Mickey. “Believe the f–k what you want to hear.”

“You don’t need to curse me out, Rylie,” Mickey replies. She then explains that she didn’t approach him because the two of them had never talked game up to that point.
“You listen to all these people running around manipulating you,” he says. “You got a lot more people that are snake-ass fake, and you’re coming after the realest f–ker in the house.”
“I’m not coming after you!” she replies, exasperatedly jumping up and down.
As Mickey sits down to continue the conversation, she reveals her true feelings in the DR. “Rylie is insisting that he would not have put me up on the block, which I don’t believe. Which is why I used my power. I couldn’t risk that.”
Rylie then dramatically tells Mickey, “Put me up.” When she replies that she doesn’t want to do that, he snaps back, “That’s what it feels like.”
“Know that it’s not personal,” she says. “It’s a game move.”
“I’m taking it personally,” he contests. “It’s not a game move.”
“It is, because it’s a game, Rylie!” she retorts.
We have yet to see Mickey make her nominations. So it’s very possible that she grants Rylie’s request, feeling enough damage had been done to warrant putting him on the block. Considering how the episode will start, people who have checked out this week’s events on the live feeds know that we are in for yet another doozy of an episode.
Check out the sneak peek above, and be sure to watch a special 90-minute episode of Big Brother 27 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT tonight on CBS.
