11:20am HOH room Mallory is listening the Yash’s HOH music and pacing around the room.
11:35am Gym – Haley and Kamu
Kamu – what do you got? Haley – when I was sleeping yesterday, your group.. Devens, Dee, Barrett and Drew. Kamu – you said my group? Haley – no their group. They were talking about votes and stuff because they know where it would probably lie to keep you here. So I don’t know what they’re planning on doing. Kamu – And they thought you were sleeping? Haley – Mmmmhmm. And I ended up getting up and walking out so they probably knew that I heard some sh*t. I have great hearing too. Devens is definitely the spokesperson. Kamu – yeah. Haley – Dee is also trying to pull Melody over. Kamu – yeah. Haley – with Drew. Kamu – so is Drew with them? Haley nods and says it looks like it. Drew didn’t say anything though. Which I told you Barrett told me he was like oh if I was working with him, he would have used it on me. Kamu – yeah that would be the thing to say if you were trying to cover up. Haley – but that is a solid group. I did ask him (Devens) how do you feel if Kamu stays .. and he kind of skated around it. He didn’t say anything bad but I’m just like why would you do that right in front of me? Kamu – so what did they say about the votes. Haley – Its the ICON, could go either way. Kind of mentioned something about probably want to get Angela to keep both of us here. But I do think its going to be a weird a$$ vote if Angela wins (Blockbuster) and its you and I. Kamu – Yeah but you know what if I win, I am voting to keep you. Even if I am the only one, you will have… Haley – thanks because I don’t want it to be a wash. Kamu – yeah it won’t be. Haley – but I do think with the fight and drama yesterday.. like every time Angela cries its like dude!? Its like another number for her. Kamu – I was thinking the same thing yesterday. Haley – That’s what Devens said too, its f**king annoying. Kamu – Well my goal is obviously to win. I know your goal is to win. We got to do it but no matter what if I win, I am voting to keep you. Haley – thank you. (LOL she doesn’t tell Kamu she will vote to keep him.) But like I told Taylor, obviously I know if I stay I am going to keep going back up. It is what it is, especially if Angela leaves.

12pm Havenot Room – Devens and Kamu
Kamu – I want you to know like in my mind, game wise, yeah, we always had a good relationship, dude. And like you, you weren’t somebody that I was coming after, do you just see this is just like, you know, your, your chance to take a shot ’cause maybe it would have been more difficult down the road or could do like in in my head. And again bro, you don’t, you don’t have to say. Devens – but no, you’re good. Kamu – In my head it was always like anytime dude, I would be talking to other people and like forming alliances, you know, I was always trying to include you. You know, it was always like dude, hey let’s, let’s bring Devin’s in, let’s bring Devin. I always wanted to make it and and Dee also, you know, it was always like I want Devin’s and Dee to be here because I really want to
go far with him in the game. So like at what point did you feel like, oh man, like I don’t trust
Kamu or like we got to, we got to take him out and that’s what’s so weird about it.
Devens – Like, honestly, there’s not a point where I was like, I don’t trust Kamu, I did trust you like I do believe all the things that you said, which made it a really tough decision. Gameplay was right, right, like person, personals. Like, we can just say like, love you for Shake. You’re amazing. Let’s just set that aside. It’s strictly gameplay where it’s like, I trusted everything you said and I’m like damn, like we, you know, just being with Kamu, the things we said like could get me far in the game challenge beast, this is great. But also I’m just like the guy’s more likable than me. The guy’s more connected to me. The social game is such a mosh pit right now. that I’m like, just trying,
to figure out longevity wise where things go. And you’re even a guy that I would love to have on a jury. Like you’re a guy who I think no matter how you go out, would root for.. would vote for the person you think played the best game, so I’m like, but it’s just I look at it and I’m like
here’s a good chance in that, like, you can never take for granted that you’re going to be HOH again, right. Kamu – Right. Devens – Just hard to do. Way harder if if you’re here winning, you know. Kamu – No, no, I get it too. But I wouldn’t have. (Put up Devens). Devens – I know, I know. I mean, not not anytime soon, but it was just like it was such a big piece and I was like, this is a chance to remove it from board. Kamu – I get it.
Devens – I get it, but it’s like, I’m also burning that Yash thing. And like, chances are you’re gonna come back and dude, believe me, like, if you win your way back, like, I know, you know, you win your way back and you’re HOH. Uh oh. But also like, I’ll be so happy for you. I’ll be so psyched for it. Like it is what it is. Kamu – And who knows, man, with the way that, the way that the blockbusters go to do, they’re kind of anyone’s game. So it’s like there’s a chance, dude, I don’t win the blockbuster tomorrow, you know?
Devens – And I know that’s everybody’s chance to take their shot. So I get that too. Like, I’m not. I’m not dumb, you know, I see it, you know, it’s also a long game. And Rome and I kind of had this talk too, where it’s like, listen, man, like if you come back like, I get it. Come for me. Like 100%. It makes more sense than anything. But after that, I’m almost like I took my shot and you .. you could come at me forever. But its like when you get to a certain point, like there is nothing anyone else in the house wants more than us to be fighting each other.
Kamu – Exactly. Devens – I still don’t know if its the right move. Its so early and I feel like you could have gotten me so far. And I had to use the power on Dee because Survivor fans f**king sent me this power and they’re going to be pissed if I don’t use this.
Kamu – The delivery was awesome too, ’cause I would have to know. Devens – Yeah, it’s like I’d like to keep it for me but it expires too. Kamu – That’s what I was thinking too. Devens – It was like a 4
week thing. So it’s just like how can I use this and try to Max it out? Kamu – Yeah. Devens – there’s really like no one in the house I think is scary except you. And like you were scary and you were with me, but you’re still just like very scary. And I can just see you getting yourself all the way to the end and beating me, dude, I don’t, man. Kamu – That’s nice of you to say. But do I see, like, I think that you’re probably, you’re one of the most likable dudes in the house, man. Like, everybody loves you. You have a great sense of humor. You make everybody laugh, which makes people trust you. You know? but you know, and even even if even if you and I were sitting next to each other at the end, I think that your story of being like dude, I was one of the icons coming in. I had a huge target on my back from playing Survivor twice, and I still made it here. I did I think like that would would trump, I mean, who knows what happens with Ryan then maybe, you know, whatever. But I think that story alone, let’s just take that. I think that could be enough reason for somebody to be like dude, we got to give it to Devin’s like how many other people could come in with the target that he had formed, the alliances that he formed, make the moves that he made and get to the end. Coming off Survivor, I think it’s a story that would be very, very hard to beat. But dude, I get where you’re coming from. I said before this too, I think even a couple weeks ago to you that, like, you got to respect the game, you got to respect big moves and do that. And I do respect him. What I told you in the kitchen after it was all said and done, like I meant that.
Devens – Hey man, I hope there’s no weirdness. I still want to, you know, toss bags 100 percent. I respect the play, you know no I stand by that and like not everybody does that, especially not first time players bro like separated. So I really appreciate like because I do like being friends with you and I do like hanging that me too man. You couldn’t make it very uncomfortable for me in the house you know and it’s like that would be you have every right to do that but no. And again I understand, you’re Pandora’s box, you know and I opened you and like anything that happens from here on out gameplay wise like I’m never gonna take it personally. Like I started it and like dude and maybe though like I do, I do not know that it’s the right move. Like I’m not sitting here like confident that I did the right thing.
Kamu – and maybe, dude, maybe there is a world if I do end up stay, if I win the blockbuster tomorrow, maybe there is a world where you and I work with each other down the road too. And I don’t think that people would even see that, you know, like I don’t think people would expect that. So who knows, man? Devens – Like, we’re not even halfway through the game. That’s it Friday, right? Kamu – I keep the book open for sure. Kamu – and so do I. So do I. Because for me, I want to do
what’s best to, to make it as far as possible and so maybe like a low key like dude they could never be working together after that. Devens – yeah, its hard to get to the end, I’ve never done it. Kamu – neither have I, I’m trying to make it half way.
Devens – I understand what I unleash. But also I’ll be there’ll be a big part of me that’s just super happy. Kamu – Thanks man. Devens – and I love having you here. Kamu – thanks dude. Devens – No for I appreciate like I’m never rooting against you. Kamu – thank you. yeah, it’s just a game. Devens – I feel the same way, man. Kamu – love you. Devens – love you.

12pm HOH room – Taylor and Yash
Taylor – I don’t trust him (Devens) either. Yash – not at all. Taylor – then he goes back to that happy, funny dad joke sh*t. Like you ain’t just f**k our whole week up. That’s what gets me about him. He does it with no remorse. Yash – We NEED Mallory and Melody. I don’t care about none of that other sh*t.. Devens, Angela, Lala… all those problems mean nothing today.. tomorrow. Taylor – and we know that Lala is not going to vote out Angela ..unless its Kamu.

1pm Bedroom – Dee and Barrett
Dee – Just know I would put my game on the line for you but I will not say that. Barrett – And I would do the same for you. Dee – No, I will not let you. Barrett – that’s not fair. Dee – Love you. But no, no, I want to see you go far. I want to see you literally in the final two. Barrett – but I would like to see you in there too. Dee – I would love to get there too. It’ll be very hard, it’ll definitely be more difficult. I just got to lock in more. Yash – so who cares. Lala already said I am keeping Kamu.. so like Lala to me the next two days we don’t have to worry about. She’s out of mind. Drew, we got to trust his word. Taylor – and if he don’t, he is on that side and that’s that… its those four and .. Yash – it would be them six. Taylor – what six? Yash – Haley, Drew, Barrett, and the three ICONS. If Kamu goes, we’re the ones going the next five weeks, 6 weeks cause they have the numbers and the have the competitors. The ICONS want Kamu to go, they would not have put him up if they did not want him to go home. Taylor – they know that he’s really for us. Yash – they know that.

3:25pm Kitchen – Lala, Kamu, Yash, Melody, Drew, Haley, Angela are chatting and eating. They’re jokingly commenting on how “the new” Drew is different.. They think he has a twin that he’s swapping out with. They say the new Drew is different and does things differently. Yash – calls out Drews name. Look he didn’t even look. That’s his brothers name. They speculate on Drew’s twins name… Andrew, etc. Lala – you are NOT your brother. They land on how this Drew’s real name is Lou. Drew – that’s why I hate my picture.

4:15pm Gym – Melody and Mallory
Melody – We’re all dead set if Kamu is on the block he goes? Mallory – Honestly if Angela wins the blockbuster, I am down to vote out Haley. Melody – Same. Mallory – like I don’t want to blind side anyone but that would keep the other side happy with us and we still get out someone big. Melody – Yeah, I agree. Did Devens or Dee talk to you at all if Angela wins the blockbuster? Mallory – no, but they probably assume we vote out Kamu. Melody – yeah. Mallory – they never talked to us about it though. Melody – true. Mallory – but we have to assume that the “MOSH PIT” alliance was only formed to make sure we get out Kamu. Melody – Yeah, I completely agree. But it is nice, because like my thing is .. its just like so risky… everything is. Mallory – yeah. Melody – Like if we get out Kamu and one of the ICONS win HOH and then what like we’re on the block? Mallory – I don’t know. Melody – but like there are bigger threats.. like Yash is a bigger threat. And then like Haley would still be here. It would probably be in their best interest to stay loyal for the next week or two. I’m sure we are thinking the exact same thing they are like we’re not gonna stay loyal to them but for the next week or two we are. Mallory – they probably think we can beat them in anything. But Devens is going to start going harder. I think that’s why he is training up in the gym now too. Melody – Yeah Devens is going to go harder. They probably do think we’re dumb, which I also don’t mind. Like if they probably think that we have no idea that we’re being used. I’m fine with them thinking that. Mallory – when we talk, let Barrett and Drew do all the talking. Melody – it is a tough spot because I don’t want to blindside Yash. If I won HOH it would genuinely make me feel like sh*t to put up Yash and Taylor. Mallory – Yeah , I don’t know if I would. I think we have no reason to protect the icons. If they can’t win anything, if they don’t want HOH next week, they’re f**King useless I’m sorry like. We have no reason to upset good competitors to protect people that can’t win anything. Melody – Yeah I agree but we can’t tell Barrett and Drew that. I’ve been friends with Yash since day one. Mallory – yeah same. Melody – Like not that that should matter because its a game but Devens put me on the block. Dee put you on the block. Barrett joins them and the conversation ends.

5:18pm Gym – Mallory, Devens, Melody, Drew are hanging out and chatting.
6:10pm Bathroom – Kamu and Barrett
Kamu – Day 2 we (Devens & Kamu) were close, we were in 3 or 4 alliances together. You know and obviously he still took that shot. Barrett – yeah. Kamu – so it’s one of those things where it’s like man, if he’ll do that to me, even if people think that they’re close with them, now, yeah, she won’t think twice before doing it to other people. He wants to make the big moves, which I respect. Barrett – and he’s made that clear multiple times this season already. Kamu – the game player in my and the fan in me, I respect the moves. Barrett – Me too. Kamu – I respect the moves. But if people are naive
enough to think that they won’t, that he won’t, and it’s a dangerous place. And the longer they stay in brother more control they have a jury and their stories become he’s.. Barrett – exactly right. Kamu – you know, what I mean? Barrett – yeah. Kamu – If he will take that shot against me, he will take that shot against anybody. We’re not even halfway. Halfway is Friday. There’s still so much game to be played, dude, if any of them win power, if we chip away at the icons, and if any of them wins power, they can put me up. It’s going to be a lot easier to take out one person than it will take out 3, and the other thing too is everybody talks about me being a good competitor, but dude Devin’s and I have the same amount of wins, right? Barrett – Exactly, exactly. Kamu – That’s it. Barrett – and it’s like, if you’re gonna make the argument for you is like, they’re gonna make that argument for Yash, who is someone that I trust one hundred percent. Kamu – Like, yes, bro, and they’ll make the argument for you.. because you’ve been second place like 19 times. He is going to try to take out Yash, he’s going to try to take you out. Its only a matter of time. Barrett – I know. That’s why I am down.

6:55pm HOH room – Drew, Melody, Mallory and Yash are hanging out
Drew – we’re not in the top four of who he’s taking out .. its those three. And as long as those icons are number one. So I don’t think it’s stupid to keep him. Melody – I like him.

7pm – 8:35pm Lounge – Devens and Barrett
Devens – I want them to think that I’m worried about it. Barrett – The only person that was worried was Drew and then we saw how you .. I think you saw that .. how he reacted to him saying that I think he immediately regretted saying it. Because I saw him very briefly in the storage room with Dee after and he was like I think I tripped out. He was like I was just talking about if Melody and Mallory.. I just didn’t know if they would see it through all the way if they were HOH or whatever. And I was like I think you’re incorrect and he was like ok cool. He was like I think I really scared Devens when I said that and I was like yeah. Devens – yeah I told him exactly what I told you.. And then I went right back up there and was like Drew, you tripped me out man! You got me freaking out here. And he was like oh oh.. I was like what the hell bro! Barrett – I haven’t seen him like that since the Doritos. (Drew freaked out when he found Doritos in his bed.)

Dee joins Barrett and Devens.
Devens – I was in an alliance with .. maybe I still am, I’m not sure. I never officially said I wasn’t anymore but with Taylor, Yash and Kamu. But i’m feeling vibes from them. They’re kinda telling me we’re not in an alliance anymore. Barrett – yeah they may have passed. Devens – but I don’t know, this could be the cover we needed. Dee – Don’t worry because my alliance will save you, and you (Barrett), Angela.. we will save you. Don’t worry. And guess how many times we’ve gotten together. Devens – holds up one finger. Dee – probably. Devens – Ours.. Never got together. Drew joins them and they chat about video games.
9:09pm Havenot Room – Angela and Kamu
Kamu talks to Angela about how when he started packing it made him realize just how muck he loves it in the house and doesn’t want to leave. He says that he wishes they could all just stay. Kamu tells Angela not to count herself out of winning the blockbuster. He explains the more experienced player some times wins over a better fighter.
9:20pm Havenot room – Drew and Kamu
Drew – You have a fighting chance. I am still betting on you. Kamu – yeah thanks man. I’m going out there to win you know. Drew – the best thing is like if you win and come back, they’re going to accept you. Kamu – yeah. Drew – but I am not going to lie to you, I think you have to win. Kamu – yeah that makes sense. Mallory and Melody, no? Drew – I think they’re iffy but I wouldn’t bet on them. Don’t leave it up to chance. Kamu – yeah no, I think the goal is to go in there and get it done. But hey, thank you for being honest. And thank you for trying. I really do appreciate it. Drew – Yash has been trying too. Kamu – I know dude. Drew – I think it is a losing battle so like you have to win it. Kamu – I know. I appreciate it.

9:30pm HOH room – Taylor and Yash
Taylor – I am at the point where I want to win tomorrow. Yash – I trust our people bro to get this done. Chuk had no pulse on the game. Taylor – Chuk is dumb! Yash – yeah. And I might not have a pulse on the game either. Taylor – he is too emotional. Yash – the three of them could just be saying yeah, yeah, yeah and not do it. But if they don’t do it and tell me they’re going to do it… Taylor – that’s what is going to piss me off more. Yash – that’s a different beast bro! Taylor – yeah don’t make me mad. I don’t like being mad. Because that veto win was off me being mad. Yash – I know it was because we talked the night before.

10:30pm Gym – Kamu and Mallory
Kamu – I just wanted to at least campaign a little bit. Mallory – OK fair. Kamu – I don’t know exactly where your head’s at with the with the vote, but my thought process is if it makes sense to you, right, for if it benefits your game at all to keep me here. The way that I kind of see things is, I don’t think that the, the icons are going to prioritize anybody over each other. Mallory – I agree. Kamu – So my thought process is they made a public declaration in front of the house that obviously I am who they’re targeting. He could have put up anybody he wanted and he decided to put me up. I agree. He and I were in five different alliances together so if he is willing to and everything was everything was other like he did flip the vote and I had some red flags about things.. Big Brother switches the feeds.
Kamu – right now, we’re at a really pivotal point. And I think that this, this, this particular vote, like tomorrow’s vote, I think really affects the trajectory of the game. If I’m gone, the rookies have now lost their biggest shield because the icons will always put me up. If any of them are in power, they will always put me up. And to fill one of those seats, if I’m gone, that means another spot opens up for one of the rookies. Also, the rookies will lose not only my shield, but the rookies will lose a good competitor who’s not going after them again. Like my allegiances are not with Haley and Chuck. My Chuck’s not even here anymore. My allegiances are not with the with the icons who I was working with early on in the game. I have nobody. So I’m like, look, I don’t want the Jerry to be full of icons who will support each other. Mallory – Me neither.
Kamu – The further they make it, the stronger their their story becomes I am not targeting any of the rookies at all. I want one of us to win and I also don’t want the Rook. I don’t want the jury house to be full of icons who could sway people to support them if if one of them makes it so that’s that’s kind of my I love the icons on a person. I love Dee, love Devens. I love Angela. I love all three of them. They’re they’re great. But we’re literally three evictions 2 after tomorrow from jury, the icons have been the ones pulling the strings. Like the the craziness with last week’s vote an hour before the show. That was because of Devens and Dee. The the flip the week before. Also
because of Devens and Dee. So they’re pulling strings from behind the scenes, even if people don’t even if people don’t realize it. I think if I am here I want to keep us safe. I would not target you. I would not target any. My goal is to not take out the rookies. My goal is single handedly would be to take out the icons. That’s it. so I’m a shield. Yash said it like this earlier, I’m a shield and I’m also a sword. And like I genuinely, I genuinely mean that. There will be 9 people in jury and the ICONS will make up 1/3 of that.
Mallory – I do think its unfair for you to go home this week also. and I would hate its kind of out for your control. Kamu – thank you.

Lounge – Drew and Melody.

12:30am HOH room – Yash and Kamu are reminiscing about past events of the season.
Kamu – Devens said the Survivor fans gave me this and they would want, they would have wanted me to use it on Dee. Yash – He felt that pressure. Kamu – He did. I get that. He still didn’t have to put me up though. Yash – Yeah. Kamu – And for that, bro, it’s like, what? Look, if you’re willing to risk my game, I’m putting your a$$ up, dude. You’re willing to dude. Yash – Yeah. It’s like every f**king time you and to me it’s the same thing. It’s it’s the same thing during my HOH, during my God. Kamu – that’s crazy. Yash – Suck my Dick. bro. You’re going up every single time. I wouldn’t sh*t. Kamu – I want to, I want to win HOH this week so bad. Yash – and like honestly bro like part of me feels happy when I see, when I see them moping around ’cause I’m with Mope. kamu – Me too. Yash – Mope. I feel you. You wanted this go Mope. That’s why that’s bro. That’s literally why he sits there in bed. All, day all she does is sit there in bed. Kamu – I want to say you made your bed and you now have to lie in it. Which is cool because lying is your native tongue.. you do that everywhere anyways! I’ll make sure the delivery is on point!
Yash – go win this sh*t tomorrow and then we are going to have field day with these motherf**kers! Kamu – yeah dude. Yash – and I am going to get the next one and we will send these f**kers to jury.

1am Havenot room – Kamu pacing around the circle bed..

1:45am All the house guests are sleeping..

mkay.
I rabbit holed. When Dee was talking to Barrett about Melody possibly having a man back home and how mad that man should be.
Something pinged in my head. A memory of an article a while back.
Mayor of Hipocrisy Hill strikes again.
Get morally superior when she’s been in her own post surviror win love triangle scandal.
Who is she kidding. three second search and one social media dive and I’m saying to myself add that to the Challenge thing aaaand
Dear Dee, take off the pearls.
Stay nope stuntcast.
Yeah, I’ll stay on every nopes throat and rant all i want. She’s just the one pissing me off most today.
Hahaha ? get used to it. She’s playing Barrett. Dee will be here for the long haul. Drew and Barrett are just beginning to get game smarter but in their core they remain loyal to D&D . What’s funny is they want to remain loyal to D&D but do it with M&M. This way the 4 FAPs think they will control the game and thus the icons. Hummm how far will that plan go and don’t they think D&D have already figured that out??
It was the moralizing. Sitting in judgement of another for something it is known she has done herself more than once. It annoyed me. If she wasn’t a nope it would not have been a dive into a rabbit hole. But she is a nope. That means i want nothing good for a nope in the game and will point out all their crap.
Always enjoy your posts. You make the seasons of BB bearable and this season more than ever, we need you! I agree with your spot on observations about Dee’s personality but she’s a shark ( see her Survivor summary) not many can take her but ( production assists or not )she’s has never ( despite her fake tears) never had to worry about being on the block. Sadly, I think she will win or come close to it especially if Drew and/ or Barrett continue to protect or make excuses for her.
Keep up the great work! As always you are deeply appreciated and valued!
100% agree with the shark analogy. I thought the same thing during her first HOH week. An aggressive, dangerous, little reef shark specifically. In Survivor I remember thinking she made me think of her like an aggressive little dog. Here in BB being in that fish tank…SHARK. Picking off the inexperienced vulnerable “new fish” one by one.
You definitely should point out all their crap of which they have plenty of.
Understandably so
Drew and Barrett are a couple of snakes I hope Kamu stays and wins HOH then he could put up Dee Deven and Barrett. I think production has this season fixed for Dee to win.
Sure seems that way.
Yep I can see it too. First person to “win” both Survivor and Big Brother. Blah Blah blah….smh
I think this season is fixed for Mallory to win… we shall see
An original thought. How refreshing. Mine tend to be more derivative.
Hope you’re right. Even tho her behavior has been worrisome lately, she’s still my favorite.
But, I’m of the opinion shared by many that Grod has the fix in for Ms. Valladares, NOT Ms. Aurichio. As you said, we shall see.
I damn sure don’t see how. Dee was gifted an HOH, was gifted a power she used but it didn’t work out for her, and was the benefactor of Devens’ gifted diamond veto power. Seems to most people rules behind her powers use have been changed to allow her to use it multiple times, rather than the once that was specified when she won it.
She didn’t do anything spectacular to gain all those advantages. Production pretty much just handed them to her as a method to ensure she would be safe and advance in the game.
If that’s not “fixing” the game, I don’t know what is.
The biggest power hasnt been given yet and mallory is being protected by several people who have skills to win comps and who want to work with her. Barrett is capable of winning comps. If Kamu stays he has said he wants to work with her as well as Yash. idk what Melody or Drew can do other than vote to keep her if she ends up on the block but as it stands no one is trying to get her out currently and not to mention shes holding rock rituals and the camera person is participating in it so its not frowned upon by the powers that be… also, she herself is very smart and capable of winning comps. the icons will continue to help her if she doesnt cross them next week.. she’s covered. Who hasnt gotten a power yet, Barrett, Drew, Kamu, Yash, Taylor, Lala and Hayley. Hayley is probably leaving tonight if I had to guess and shes probably not going to get a power anyway. I doubt Taylor or Lala will get one either, based on popularity on the charts that leaves Barrett, Drew, Kamu and Yash who all want to work with Mallory. Shes going to be shielded all the way and if she wins hoh she will target the icons. Theres no more protection for the icons, unless prodo pulls out another twist for them. the power that dee holds is worthless… it isnt enough money to bribe anyone to do anything beneficial other than maybe a vote, so i wouldnt worry too much about it being used to advance her. im going to laugh if she decides to use it to advance mallory though. theres nothing that says she has to use it to advance herself. im not watching anymore after the shenanigans with rocks but i will check in to see what happens here.. thanks for the updates. im a long time bb fan but there are some seasons that go too far and i just turn it off and hope the next season will be better. this is one of those seasons.
Haley to Kamu about the upcoming BB comp. “I think whatever it is it will be something that Angela will be fast at.”
The players are aware that production is manipulating the game but later she says to Yash “I don’t understand. We had such a good thing going. I just don’t understand what happened.”
Haley, you’ve shown that you’re not that intelligent many times already but c’mon.
Wednesday Review
The Bribe
Yash did not take the bribe.
timey wimey Dee is telling Kamu about the bribe attempt that happened before the ceremony only they put it in post noms. odd.
NOMINATION REACTIONS
Angela having the tinkly piano moment. Haley is still having a horrible day. She has not had one good week after 4 weeks of safety.
Mallory is happy about the FAP being off the block. As a 4 they will be targets soon is Drew’s input. Dee and Barrett tear moments. She took to her bed because she primadonna’d her ass through weeks and threw the HOH. We get another wayback to Dee saying she would nom Drew. Drew is not surprised and needs damage control with the Stuntcasts. Drew’s game would make A LOT more sense if he WAS a TWIN TWIST. Kamu says Red Corner and Toolshed and Wolf Pack are dead. Kamu wants Dee out. Yash wants a woman out. Brobrobroooooe. It was a THING. At this point… Yash and Kamu have cut Devens out of discussion because he is too close to Dee. But he’s still a bro. Barrett isn’t as much of a bro at Kamu’s urging.
Melody Bathroom Segment Fluff.
THE DPOV AND WEEK’S THEME DISCUSSION
Devens doesn’t want to blow up his position because he has alliances with everyone except the Giggle Girls. We get many of the alliances here. He isn’t comfortable using his power. Dee wants him to use it without blowing up his position. On Feeds Devens at this point is saying he will but does not waaant to.
Everyone thinks they have Devens. On Feeds, Dee was a proposed member of the Primaries, she turned it down last week. So she knows about the Tetherplan alliance but the boys are calling out the Primaries. Make that make sense.
Kamu and Yash are final 2’s and have been for a week. 2 bros broing.
So this week is basically the battle of the Final 2’s that have overallianced themselves.
What we are skipping: Barrett and Melody are the renoms at this moment.
FLIRTMANCE AND DREW POO:
Drew is giving the bare minimum of his info to keep Dee in his corner. Kamu is the big bad. Dee gets mad at Kamu. After spitting her entire game to Kamu then getting bored and attempting another flip… he’s turned on her. Gee. Surprise. Drew reallllly dislikes Kamu and he is working his own agenda in selective retell. He should be more selective all the time…but he is not. Game FLAW.
VETO
Yash, all woman docket and both 4th renoms:
YASH DEE ANGELA HALEY plus MELODY BARRETT.
Drew and Barrett discuss Barrett as the 4th nom. Drew did NOT push hard to save Barrett. It was an hour long conversation. Drew pushes the Kamu target directive again.
FACT: THE NOMS WERE DECIDED. KAMU SHIFTED THE TARGET AND PUSHED THE RENOM BECAUSE HE’S HAD A THING AGAINST BARRETT SINCE WEEK ONE BEFORE FEEDS.
September 26 1950 OTEV THE BELIGERENT B MOVIE BLOB
How much cheating that was spoken of on feeds will we see?
Round One: Angela Out. slow.
Round Two: Haley Out. Dee Out. wrong answers.
Round Three: Melody out. lost a shoe.
Round Four: Yash wins Veto. unanimous evictions. Yash stockpiling Ashley shots to keep Barrett from getting one. Good move but his honor talk takes a hit. What. I said it’s a good move… but slimeball is not a word he should be tossing when he’s accusing others of pulling shenanigans cus that is a shenanigan… but still a good move.
Dee still saying Devens doesn’t want to use his power. Angela knows about the power too (Dee tells people too much of other people’s business without telling them she’s been exposing them…. sorta what she gets mad at Drew for doing).
LEAD UP TO VETO CEREMONY
Melody punishment ends. Devens power discussion. Who is the renom if he uses it. What does it do for his game? Kamu… is it time to pull the trigger. The Mosh people discussion that has been going on for a week but not ever made official. Remember Dee and Angela made a deal with the Giggles last week. Kamu is the move Dee thinks. Devens is loyal to his number one. Angela already knows of the power. Angela reaction in d/r is fun for once. Kamu lies to Devens about who is the target. Devens says he’s been shut out of the discussions so the die is cast. Note: Devens post noms where he volunteered to go on the block with Melody and Angela…. didn’t really join the crew upstairs even when he saw them meeting. How did he expect to be included in the discussions?
MOSHPIT Talks
Devens goes to Barrett to consolidate the combined alliance plan. FAP + Crossover. Drew is down. Mallory wants Kamu out. She is FAP all the way. Melody is stoked. The other side is known. Drew’s ideal…. waitforit. Not revealing that Angela and Dee flubbed the layout when initiating the Moshpit alignment. The girls noted it.
Kamu joins. This is the ONLY moment Devens and Dee ever check in with or include the girls again. Once Dee is safe they get comfortable and let the game play them.
VETO CEREMONY:
Yash does NOT use the power of VETO. waitforit.
Devens stops the closure of the meeting. Dee jumps up. The boys sort of know. Angela knows. Dee knows. Yash is wondering why one of his boys is disrupting his get the girls out play. He made an alliance requiring a penis for membership. shutup.
DEVENS USES THE DIAMOND POWER OF VETO on Dee. Devens renoms Kamu.
Yash is annoyed. Kamu is very very red and blotchy in d/r. What happened? He’s in Yurtle the turtle mode. sideye.
Autre, do you happen to know what time capsule powers are still available?
here is everything about the time capsule powers: https://www.onlinebigbrother.com/the-bb-time-capsule-big-brother-28-twist/
Thanks.
have not pass (have nots are over)
veto vet assist (a ringer comes in to play veto with the power holder)
coin of destiny (the hoh can be secretly overthrown by a coin flip)
HOH replay (the HOH can win 2 weeks in a row)
Thanks.
The Icons have already done the time capsule. That means veteran assist is probably Victoria
Deputy Kathy. She is probably still stuck to the grass on the parking lot after crawling through molasses. She is taking her time with this one.
I was hoping for Kamu to be evicted this week, but after the utter arrogance of Devens and the entitled gloating of Dee on this episode, I want with every last mitochondria in my body for Kamu to win BB so I can see their special DPOV plan blow up on live TV.
Deven always tended towards smugness, but on this episode after confirming his read that Kamu is working closely with Yash and targeting Dee, he landed on full pomposity with no redemption possible.
His BS dream excuse about not disappointing his Survivor fans is so out of touch, full chested pride on the privilege he was handed in this game and how he’s going to prioritize his game legacy.
Great Devens, we know, your fans who love you gave you a DPOV from production’s intent, so go and pretend you aren’t screwing over people who thought you were loyal to them.
I don’t mind the back stab at all. I am annoyed at Deven’s legend in his own mind and his utter lack of self-awareness.
I can picture grodner watching Surv50 episodes when devens hid the fake idol and mr beast coin flip solidifying her stuntcast. Isn’t she saving the past hg comp fill in power for Barrett when the 3 vets are in trouble? Feels like prod has a ‘bring an evicted hg back’ up their sleeve too. No shame James/MysteryHG in the box s9 style.
I liked Rick on Survivor. But, I agree with you that he crossed the obnoxious pomposity line this episode, finally joining his fellow Survivor alum, who’s been crossing it all season long!

Notes:
Devens and Dee break 100.
Melody gets a jump for punishment segment
Angela gets a big jump 2 episodes in a row
Yash jumps big time into the storyline.
LATRICE AND TAYLOR GET SURVIVOR PURPLE EDIT. yeah i know what that is. NOT SURE WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO AVOID OR WHO THEY ARE PROTECTING but it is notable.
Mallory and Melody talking to each other and I hear the most frightening words ever. “We need to talk to Drew”.
That doesn’t bode well.
TINFOIL PATTERN RECOGNITION TRIGGER NEEDS TO BE VENTED.
Getting massive question marks because of my off and on habit to listen for d/r calls and noting attitude changes right after.
Tuesday night Melody got a d/r call. Then an hour later got another d/r call. After each call she was making forehead scrunches and hinting about Kamu.
There is the oddity of Devens talking about blowing up FAP games… and FAP talking about how Devens is going to blow up their games. Almost like this is a plotpoint discussion for upcoming storyline so that the employees know what management wants from them for next week. If you haven’t noticed Devens and Dee do spoilers about a week ahead of everything they plan to do. Look at Dee’s ‘get Kamu on the block’ cam talk days and days before it is a possibility. I think the comment was pre-eviction but it might have been pre-noms. Devens is even less slick. He just gobbledegooks righteous indignation and blurts out shit.
There is that odd Mallory d/r call. you know the one. the one before she and Melody talk about keeping Kamu.
Something is fishy.
Don’t forget the forecast i gave when the 1000th episode twist was announced. Oh I guess one of the stuntcasts will be using their power right before and have nothing but gamesmanship to protect them. Here we are.
Don’t think that I’ve forgotten bb26 where Angela would get a long d/r call, go back to bed and start practicing lines for her next blowup… then having a meltdown the next day because she ‘dreamed’ she was being backstabbed. She was a prodoplant for chaos. This season they have Devens so her chaos miting is significantly less. Can’t take the thunder from a Survivor player.
Or maybe it’s all coincidence.
Okay. The pressure has been turned off. Thanks for visiting my rubber room. going to go put on a helmet and oven mitts then take a walk around the grounds while they chase me with one of those nice sweaters with the long arms that always feels like a really long sustained hug with my other personalities. cheers.
Thanks for always being both informative AND entertaining. That’s a hard combo to pull off, yet you manage it, seemingly effortlessly, as Cyndi Lauper sang: “Time After Time!”
Great observations. I’ve noticed some of that myself, especially Melody’s forehead scrunching. She doesn’t normally do that.
Re: Kamu
the incredulity of Kamu needs to be studied.
Why would Devens target me we were in so many alliances together. he’s a bro.
So he’s forgotten Dee was in many of those alliances.
He KNOWS Dee and Devens are a package deal from the first HOH. The trio went to Dee first after seeing Dee and Devens go to the HOH. They noted obvious pair in power, lets attach to them. THAT IS HOW RED CORNER WAS BORN.
But now…
Why would a dudebro come for a bro, bro? Dude i mean, broooooe. Bro on bro crime dude. dewwwwd.
See my previous reply.
Dewwwwd!
Kamu’s not incredulous. In fact, he’s been giving Devon‘s props to the entire house since the day of the backstabbing. In his effort to stay, he’s just pointing out to everybody the fact that he was in five different alliances with Devon‘s and yet, Devon’s still blind sided him. He just wants everybody to not be naïve and understand how cutthroat Devon’s is. Devens will f*** over everyone with a smile.
He knew that before he entered into 3 more alliances with Devens.
The dudebro why would a man target another man thing is…. something this season.
but remember…. the season started with a broveal of the houseguests. What does that tell you.
Took a look at the platforms.
The ones I never ever engage with. Stanland. shudder.
checked the hashtag for the season.
Wow.
Toxicity levels are at a high and heading to critical.
Whataboutism…. oh goodie. Gonna sidebar here: when your argument to defend someone is “what about what this other one did” that does not negate or make the original person innocent. It just spreads the blame. Don’t do whataboutism. It’s cheap.
Example for clarification i made up in my head: I have said i don’t like how Taylor talks to and about LaTrice. A whataboutism argument would be well what about what Drew said.
Sideye. Does that negate my argument about Taylor? no. Does that mean that Taylor does not talk to and about LaTrice poorly. no. It just means Drew is an asshat too (which I’ve also argued). Point being? Whataboutism is stupid and purely a distractionary effort. Don’t fall for it and don’t use it. We’re better than that.
Here is the breakdown of the “logic” in the m/m talk to Drew:
IF Haley wins bb then vote to keep Kamu. Count the votes. Haley LaTrice and Taylor. That puts the two girls in good books with the newbs is their logic. Do i like it? Kamu is a nope, so I do not. But it puts them in the majority. They become the reason Kamu left to Yash if they don’t. They expect Devens to axe them as soon as Kamu is gone… they are toast.
IF Angela wins bb then vote to keep Kamu is a dicier prospect. LaTrice and Taylor vote to keep Kamu. That does not equal majority. bad move. They are not toast to the Yash side because the numbers aren’t there. They will still get axed by the stunts because the stunts don’t WANT to work with them. They don’t want to work with the stunts.
Drew’s motivation:
Drew has put Yash’s HOH on Kamu. He’s engineered the target placed on Kamu. Kamu stays that is coming out. Kamu gets sway with every HOH. Drew knows this. So keeping Kamu is keeping the guy that targeted Mallory. The guy that had a nand in Drew and Melody’s nomination (since he doesn’t want to put the blame on the stunts that DID it). He knows Mallory was Kamu’s preferred renom not Lyric.
Exterior motivation: If the girls flip on the stunts Drew will be dragged down with them because the stunts don’t do their own relationship upkeep, it’s up to their henchmen to handle the mundane beneath a star of their caliber task of talking to the little people.
Barrett’s motivation:
Barrett bused Drew a LOT after Drew bused m/m. His motivation is he is sick of hearing about Drew busing his side alliance for no reason because he can’t edit his blabbermouth.
POSSIBLE PROJECTION
With all of that as a given? What are the chances Drew blabs that the girls considered flipping, causing the exact situation the girls feared happening? This is Drew looking for validation from his shields that have already blocked him once because… Drew’s back up plan is to bus his back up plan and hope for the best.
Barrett’s plan is to create a condominium love nest in Devens’ sphincter where he and Dee can canoodle with only an occasional colonoscopy camera to catch them. Psst…. Dee ain’t gonna be there. She’s going to be trying to get herself cast on another Challenge with Haley and Kamu.
Once again, sir:
Bravo!
Dee this morning to Devens about staying up till 0130 with M&M- “it’s just scary that they’re playing now”. About time girls!
IF I AM IN THE HOUSE.
I look at the stuntcasts with a suspicious eye.
Everyone knows there was a 6 or 8 person alliance.
Ashley and Jason pointed it out.
Everyone knows the vote flip broke the alliance.
So. Yash Kamu and Chuk got burned by that vote.
Then they tried to flip last week’s vote (only Haley won bb).
So. La Trice got burned by that plan.
Now that Yash decided to put Dee on the block and dpov got used…
So. Devens has moved against Yash.
Now Devens plans to out the Mosh pit.
Burns? Mallory and Melody with possible singes to Drew and Barrett.
He expects this to reset the house dynamic.
Who is going to work with Devens and Dee if they have burned everyone?
THAT is what they are missing. Reset? More like confirmation that the stunts are opportunistic backstabbers.
The big game error: they don’t maintain their toys. It was something i noted in past games. Masterminds have to constantly maintain relationships. The Survivor notion of transitory voting blocks only gets you so far in big brother. Burn everyone often enough and nobody works with you unless you are HOH.
IF I’m in the house…. They become my primary target.
Loyalty to everyone every week that ends in a backstab every week… is loyalty to nobody. Again… Survivor game translates poorly when a 26 or 39 day season is now put into an 88 or 89 day mold.
Mindfulness: I expect the next time capsule to screw with the house dynamic more than whatever happens with the nominations this week.
Does that mean a stunt is in danger? Still doubtful. But there is a 20% chance because multiple stunts usually has a stunt leaving pre-jury.
Does this mean that FAP takes a loss? more likely. It is only a 40% chance.
The next twist ‘should’ protect two stunts going into the jury phase.
Thanks for the predictions. I await the outcome with baited breath, as your prognostications often come true.
Mallory to Melody-“If not for the mosh pit I would vote to keep Kamu, but I don’t trust the mosh pit at all”. Melody “Me either”.
Devens to Barrett- “It’s the nuclear plan if things don’t go my way.” knowing Barrett will take that info back to FAP. Devon‘s leaves and Barrett by himself says “Oh no. Scorched earth”.
