MANILA - Wednesday night's "Pinoy Big Brother" Lucky 7" was difficult to watch. It was one of the most emotionally-charged episodes as it had former housemates collar the frontrunners for the grand finals with a series of tough, personal questions.

It was to help viewers determine who among Christian Morones, Yong Mujahil, and Edward Barber is worthy of the first grand finals slot.

During the interrogation scene, Morones was confronted with his supposed attitude problem, which led to him being nominated for eviction for several consecutive weeks; Mujahil was asked why he abandoned the female housemates during the one of the final tasks; and Barber was asked if he would be willing to give up his chance at winning the reality show for someone who needs it more.

Heaven Peralejo, who voluntarily left the house early on, posed the said question to Barber, who replied: "I would say that I would give up my 'Big Jump' slot. But I would give up my 'Big Jump' slot for anyone who needed it as much as Heaven did."

Barber, who has admitted to liking Heaven, added: "If Christian didn't have one and he said, 'Edward, can you give up your 'Big Jump' slot because I need to help my sister?' I would do that because why would you not?"

"Heaven, your mom, she's not in the best state. For Heaven I would do it. But if I had a chance and Christian didn't have one, I would do the same. Because it's the right thing to do. They need it more than I do."

Meanwhile, Morones claimed that he doesn't have an attitude problem and even accused ex-housemate Marco Gallo of seeing the fault of others rather than his own because he "was blinded by a particular girl."

He explained: "Wala po akong tinatago, wala po akong kinikimkim. Siguro, hindi nila matanggap iyong pagkakamali rin nila at binabantayan nila ang pagkakamali ng iba."

Mujahil, for his part, answered his question about selfishly abandoning his fellow housemates for a chance at a spot in the grand finals by saying that while he considers them as his second family already, his priority remains to be his real one.

Born into a poor family, Mujahil has 16 siblings and a sickly mother.
