Big Brother 20: Power of Veto Show Blog Party - July 4

I'll be live-blogging it as it airs. Refresh the blog to get the latest! And, of course, the real party is in the comments -- I hope to see you there! I doubt we'll have a big turn-out tonight here on the blog. Most of the other stations have firework displays for the holiday.

Expect the "previously on" to start it out. 
Finally, that's over and we can actually begin the show!

Sam tells us she will keep the power app close and will use it best to her advantage. Fessy told them he got the crap app -- it will soon be obvious anyway. Tyler tells Sam he needs her to stay there. She likes him. She tells him she has a "thing." She will stay even if evicted, no guarantee. She was very vague. Tyler thinks it's the power app but he's confused. She won't give him details.

Swaggy says he likes Tyler and thinks he can work with him. So, he takes it upon himself to tell Tyler that, if the veto is used, Angela needs to go. Heh. Angela is an ally of Tyler. Tyler tells Swags that Bayleigh would need to go up. Now, she's Swaggy's cuddle buddy even if he is getting scared of a showmance.

Hamazon delivery at the front door! Hamazon Swine for Fessy! It's actually vegetarian ham as Fessy can't eat ham due to his religion. He can't even go to bed until he finishes the huge delivery. And ... then ... more ham!

Swaggy tells Bayleigh that Tyler wants to put her on the block if he needs a replacement nominee. She feels betrayed. She also feels Swaggy will drop her at any time to save his own game. (Well, as he should. He's there to win not to find love in all the wrong places.) 

Poor Bayleigh is in tears. Swags is trying to console her. She thinks they need to distance themselves from each other and she may be a target because of him. So, she goes to talk to Tyler. He tells her if she goes up, she's a pawn. He tells her that she's the safest bet. She thinks he's throwing her under the bus. "What about Angela?" Tyler hints to Bayleigh that Angela just might have the power and she needs to trust him. "Pawns go home," she tells him.

Time to pick veto players! Tyler randomly picks HG Choice and chooses Swaggy, telling us he would keep the noms the same and Steve will go. Sam gets Scottie. Steve gets HG Choice and goes for Fessy. 

Tyler tells the dudes that Steve will stay ... even though we know he wants Sam to stay. Tyler tells us he loves it that Swaggy's side tells him everything that's going on with them. Heh.

PoV Comp has them participating in viral videos. The first one has snakes. Real ones. They must retrieve three light icons from under the snakes, one at a time. The least amount of light icons done is out when time is up. Steve is done first! Sam second. Scottie is out.

Stage 2 is in the Arctic. They have to go into ice water to retrieve the light icons. Swags is out.

Stage 3 is to become a human paintball target holding positions on little teensy ramps while being shot at. Steve fell and is out. 

Stage 4 has them bring back ten balls, one at a time, with "lightning bolts" coming at them. Sam is having real problems with the shocks. Fessy is done first. Sam is out.

Tyler makes a deal with Fessy to keep the noms the same if he wins. Tyler has to throw it.

Stage 5 has them drinking bad stuff. Fessy wins the Power of Veto!

Steve thinks Fessy will take him off the block and he's in a good position. Tyler thinks Fessy will keep his word and he won't have to change nominations, so he's in a good position. 

Veto meeting time ... interrupted by a Hamazon delivery for Fessy! No speeches ... Fessy does NOT use the Power of Veto.
