Ragan tells Matt he knows Matt was throwing him under the bus. Matt asks who said that, Ragan wont tell him.
Ragan is upset because he risked his game by campaigning for Matt, and Matt didn't appreciate it. Matt says 'I know, it came out wrong.'
Matt apologizing to Ragan. Saying he didn't mean to throw Ragan under the bus, he was just trying to be defensive and trying to stay in the game.
MATT: "You don't seem like the regular Ragan anymore. I don't want you to go down with me. If you need to distance yourself... fuck! Shit man. I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to get you put on the block. I was playing the game defensively. Do you think it would help if I talked to Britney about this?"
RAGAN: "No, I'm glad it happened because it has opened up my eyes, that this IS a game. I needed to be reminded."
Ragan says he has increased the target on his back the last few weeks in order to help Matt, and he doesn't like his position in the house now.
RAGAN: "I risked myself to campaign for you."
MATT: "I was just trying to save myself."
RAGAN: "How did discussion of you staying off the block turn to discussion about ME going on the block?"
MATT: "I didn't mean to throw you under the bus. Britney was asking about me and you being a pair, so..."
RAGAN: "But I risked myself to campaign for you."
Matt says he didn't realize what he said sounded bad until now, until it was explained to him.
Ragan says he will know the truth when he sees the episodes.
MATT: "I don't want our time in here to be... I mean, I enjoyed our time together and I don't want anything to mess it up. I don't want you to not trust me. Oh man, it even sounds stupid to me saying it! I totally get where you're coming from..."
Ragan says he can't get upset anymore about his friends leaving the house. "It's not good for my game. I can't do it anymore. It just sucks because with the web of friendships and alliances in this house... if you leave, I'm gone too."
Ragan and Matt both agree that he (Matt) is going home this week.
RAGAN: "If you go home, I'm walking out the door right behind you. I think we'll be doing the Early Show together. I think the boys are working together. Lane is working with Britney and the boys are working with Brendon."
MATT: "Have you heard for sure that I'm going home?"
RAGAN: "You're going home."
MATT: "That's harsh! Do you know for a fact that I'm going home or is that just your intuition?"
RAGAN: "It's intuition, but you ARE gone."
