Big Brother 26: Update #27

 

Before we get started, a reminder of who has whom:


Second, 5 bonus points each to Carol and Brian for sending me the phrase sneaky snake!

We open the show with Godzilla begging to stay on her favorite show (2 points for “Speak in opening vignette” to Brian!).  Everyone left is a combination of happy to be here and happier that Godzilla no longer stomps around the house.   We get a look at what happened during last Thursday’s double as Kimo and Makensy share their thoughts (1 point each for “Mention ‘in this game’” [Kimo], [Makensy] to Tessa and Teresa!). He’s tired of being a pawn, she feels safe with Chelsie.

Following his Veto win in the double Chelsie, who’s game bothers me for some reason, asks Kimo who she should renominate.  He says Makensy and she asks if he’d be good with Rubina.  Dude. WHY ARE YOU ASKING HIM????  Just play the game already. Jesus. 

In the heat of the moment, she also asks Godzilla who should be the pawn sitting…..next to Godzilla. Godzilla raises the same old “I’m not a threat” plea. Suuuuure you’re not.  Honestly, I can’t take Chelsie anymore. She’s got Makensy and Cam in her pocket and has won enough comps to be a good winner but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WTF WAS THAT????

Did I do that?

The Warrior and Rubina are rooting for each other to go out there and win some comps, which Rubina thinks is a must (1 point for “Mention ‘I need to win HOH’” [Rubina] to Evan!).  They sure do say they need to win a lot for people who’ve won nothing.

At the HOH comp, Makensy also feels the need to win (1 point for “Mention ‘I need to win HOH’” [Makensy] to Teresa!) and it’s the small stacking comp, which makes Rubina think she has an advantage until her hands start shaking.  I couldn’t do this comp just like I lost every game of Operation I ever played.  After some trials, tribulations and a ton of curse words, Makensy finally finishes the stack! (5 points for “Win HOH” [Makensy] to Teresa!). It’s an iconic comp win, according to Chelsie (1 point for “Mention ‘iconic’” [Chelsie] to Viviana!)

Everything’s coming up Chelsie, according to the three-time HOH.  SlayZeeAh is gone. Godzilla is gone and her puppet Makensy is HOH (1 point each for “Shown on camera in gray” [Godzilla], [SlayZeeAh] to Brian and Carol!).  She feels guaranteed to make the Final 4 and that’s exactly why I can’t stand her.  No one should EVER feel as safe as she feels right now, even to the point where she feels like she had more power when Makensy was HOH than when she was!

Rubina finally decides to play Big Brother and finds a possible wedge to drive between Makensy and Chelsie.  She tells Makensy that Chelsie considers Makensy a huge threat to her game, and that Rubina is all about the girl power.  Makensy is flabbergasted and that’s also the problem.  When Makensy follows Rule #2: Trust But Verify, Chelsie spins it saying if she wanted to do that, she’d have gone for it in the double eviction. 

Of course, Chelsie said it to Rubina but she didn’t think Rubina would tell Makensy.  That’s Rule #4: Know Your Audience, Chels. To be fair, Rubina hasn’t played like that all season. 5 points if you send me the phrase follow the rules or else.  Tell no one else. Offer good until the next update is posted.

Moving along…

We begin to get some reminiscing as Kimo and Rubina remember T’Kor and Tucker (1 point each for “Shown on camera in gray” [T’Kor], [Tucker] to Joe and Brian!)  but Kimo isn’t all memories…he decides to engage The Warrior on how to get to the end.

EARTH TO KIMO!  YOU HAD TWO MONTHS TO DO THIS. IT’S TOO LATE NOW.  The Warrior sees the moves Kimo’s putting on him for what they are and doesn’t have much to say in return (1 point for “Mention ‘in this game’” [The Warrior] to Tessa!).  He shares Kimo’s advances with Makensy as they comment how trustworthy Kimo comes across, even getting Quinn to tell him about his Deepfake HOH power (1 point for “Shown on camera in gray” [Quinn] to Demi!).  Kimo likely painted a target on his back right there.

At the nomination ceremony, Kimo and Rubina are nominated (3 points each for “Nominated for Eviction” [Kimo], [ Rubina] to Tessa and Evan!) as Makensy tells us we’re at the point where we all have to gun for each other. She doesn’t mean that though. She means “me, Chelsie and The Warrior need to get rid of Kimo and Rubina”.

So what does this mean for our scores?   Leader Brian has lost his Angel-a (his phrase) but he’s got a pretty huge lead at this point.  2nd place Carol is done as well, but 3rd place Tessa still has both Kimo and The Warrior.  Unfortunately, neither has done much all season. It’s not likely they’ll suddenly make up the difference. 4th place Teresa and 7th place Viviana still have a chance to pass Evan and Demi, depending on how Chelsie and Makensy finish out the season. 

  1. Brian     285
  2. Carol    176
  3. Tessa    160
  4. Teresa   145
  5. Evan     140
  6. Demi    136
  7. Viviana 118
  8. Joe        111
