Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Monday Night - August 6

"They're defamating my character, Sam!"

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Soulless Sisters:

• As you know from my last post, Tyler was saved. Angela put Bayleigh up in his place, emphasizing that Bayleigh is the Hacker winner.
• Too bad she's not.
• Yep, a boatload of reasons to put her up, but that one's wrong.
• It doesn't sound like Angela used the "making Scottie defend himself by swearing on the bible" angle.
• Bayleigh's BFF in the house, Haleigh, is responsible for her predicament.
• Of course, in her numerous protests outside of the Hacker accusation, Bayleigh has it in her mind that she's been nothing but a delightful, pleasant, always kind hamster.
• That just don't fly, girl.
• Haleigh is being totally mum to all about being the Hacker.
• I can't really blame her for that. Now if she talks, the wrath of ALL would come down on her.
• Of all people, it's Rockstar figuring out the Level 6/4 group.
• She took Scottie aside and told him that she thinks they were trying to get him to come to their side and tried pitting him against his own alliance.
• She thinks the alliance is led by Angela and has Kaycee, Brett and ... maybe Tyler.
• As a matter of fact, she's pretty sure Tyler.
• Scottie defended Tyler, saying that he can't be a part of it.
• In a talk with Bayleigh later, they decided the other one and mastermind is Sam.
• @@
• Bayleigh knows she's the target and there's not much she can do about it.
• She says she doesn't want to snap.
• Then she snaps at people.
• She says she doesn't want to cry.
• So she cried.
• Rockstar has been told she's safe this week, yet still worries.
• But her Jessie diet and exercise bits are keeping her busy and tired.
• I think Scottie is considering what Rockstar told him. But ... he has to think of his own game. Is it better to be the expendable hamster on the sinking ship or the expendable with two other expendable ones on the sturdy frigate?
• Haleigh seriously needs to stop touching people. I'm not a touchy-feely type person. I'd swat her hand away. She was all pretzeled with Bayleigh last night. She can't keep her hands off of Scottie or even JC. She's starting to remind me of that Christine hamster who had the husband at home although I do think Haleigh's single.
• While there have been snips, snaps and conspiracy theories, there have been no brouhahas.
• The veto ceremony with its blocked feeds must have gotten all the really good stuff. 

Safety is a good feeling

They have four - Angela, Brett, Kaycee ...

Fessy dancing. Okaaay.

Bayleigh not dancing

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds - PoV Meeting Over - August 6

The Power of Veto meeting went down as planned. Such a shame it was blocked to the live feeds!

So, Tyler saved himself and Bayleigh is on the block in his place.

Angela did accuse Bayleigh of being the hacker. Haleigh has not said a word and is still trying to deflect to others while talking alone with Bayleigh.

Bayleigh tried to get in the HoH room, but Angela wouldn't answer the door.

Sam and Tyler told Rockstar she has nothing to worry about.
I'm sure she doesn't.
More later. 

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Monday Morning - August 6

One will off the other for sure

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Falling Cards:

• First off, a mention of Brett's InstaGranny punishment -- like the Yell bit with Rachel, the feeds get cut. "Granny" makes Brett do things like mess up the beds, rampage the storage room, make meals for her then demand he eats them. It should be funny when they air it.
• The Backdoor Bayleigh plan is still in effect, although based on the wrong criteria at least in part.
• Angela plans to call out Bayleigh as the Hacker winner in her speech.
• She's adamant that Bayleigh is the hacker.
• Um. We know that's wrong.
• I wonder how Haleigh is going to take offing her buddy Bayleigh even if unintentional?
• Of course, the other criteria for Bayleigh on the block is spot on -- her meanness, power tripping and, in general, how she treats others.
• Level 6/4 is really rocking it. 
• While Tyler is the head mastermind of the alliance, others outside of the alliance including those who work with them (Sam, JC and now Scottie) really think Tyler is out of his element, bewildered by the game and only good in comps. 
• He's hidden the superfan status and his power app from all, including his alliance.
• We're seeing some of the best social games we've ever seen this season, some directed by Tyler, some on their own.
• For example, Tyler told Brett he needs to work Scottie. Brett did indeed do that and is still working him. Brett has Scottie convinced that he really doesn't talk or know Tyler that well at all, but would like to work with him.
• Even JC, who's not a part of Level 6/4 doesn't know how close the four are working. But he's helping them anyway. 
• The ONLY one JC actually likes with Bayleigh and Company is Fessy. He adores Fessy and Fessy adores him. It is sweet. But they all know Fessy is clueless when it comes to the game.
• A side note -- When JC was talking with Angela and Kaycee about how evil Bayleigh has been to people, JC said she yelled at him when he was in his bed jiggling. Heehee! It took them a moment to realize he meant giggling!
• Another peripheral to the Level 6/4 bunch is Sam. Although she loves the whole house, she has a special love for Kaycee and Tyler. She wants to be in a final three with them, then drop things and let them take first and second place.
• Nah, that's not the way to WIN Big Brother, but I do think she's being honest about it.
• Tyler and Sam had earlier pinky-sweared to eliminate the bad vibes and get to the end.
• What Level 6/4 is doing right is keeping their mouths shut and not seeming to be THAT close to each other.
• IF Tyler, Brett, Kaycee and Angela make it to the final four as they hope, it will be anyone's game at that point. I can see Tyler being a target as they know his charisma and talents. 
• Back to the present day -- Fessy is more worried that he's going to be the renom if Angela saves Tyler.
• Everyone knows that Angela told Tyler and Scottie that they will NOT be on the block. She will save Tyler and Scottie will not be the renom.
• Even Brett, though he would love Rockstar to go away, has said he'd vote out Bayleigh over her because Rockstar really can't do much other than annoy him.
• The veto meeting later today will be blocked to the live feeds, but the aftermath should be epic! 

Fun in the kitchen

Punishment has been good for her

Dancing Kaycee's peanut dance

Sam wants either Kaycee or Tyler to win

Brett works Scottie

We'll see this look again

Big Brother 20: Hacker Comp, Nominations Show Blog Party - August 5

As the show airs here, I'll be live-blogging it -- refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area. Please feel free to join in on the discussion!

Tonight will finally answer the question -- Who is that Masked Hacker? Even on the live feeds, no one has 'fessed up to it. It's pretty amazing that the Sunday shows have started on time here on the East Coast all season so far. Watch ... I probably jinxed it now. 

I'm sitting out the "previously on" segment. If you don't know by now ...!

Brett is giddy over his speech and staying! Rockstar cries because she wanted the HoH win so bad. She cried so much that her eyelash fell off in the Diary Room. Angela wants to out Bayleigh's power app. Angela is still smug about Rachel going. Tyler went to Bayleigh just before the vote to tell her he HAD to vote out Rachel because she told him Bayleigh had the power app and other lies. 

Bayleigh confronts Brett. He insists he threw Rachel under the bus, not her. Bayleigh is firm that he wanted her to look like an idiot. Of course, Brett was her target -- she needn't get herself so worked up about what he said or did.

Fessy frustrated that he's voted "wrong" four times and is clueless. JC throws out names other than his own for the vote. Bayleigh needs to "get to the bottom" right now over the flip votes. Rockstar cries more. She didn't need Bayleigh being nasty to her! How to alienate your own alliance ...!

Tyler, Kaycee and JC celebrate their victory. Tyler puts his befuddled look on for a time with Fessy and Rockstar.

They're all called to the living room with the Hacker Comp on the screen. The BB Hacker can hack the noms after the nomination ceremony, removing one nom and replacing. Can pick a veto player. Can eliminate one hamster vote on eviction night. 

Sam calls a house meeting. She has a plan to knock down the Hackers Comp crisis. She suggests all make sure she wins, all go in and refuse to participate. She will win and vow to not use it. She means to give control back to them, but no one is buying it. (It is a silly plan.)

Level 6 down to four, are amazed they're doing so well. Angela suggests putting up Rockstar and Scottie, maybe a backdoor Bayleigh. If one of them get the Hacker win, they could even put up Bayleigh anonymously.

Baykeigh talks to Angela, thinking she's bonding. They talk about Bayleigh's power app -- she tells Angela she has to use it BEFORE nominations, can't change them. Angela tells us she wants Bayleigh to feel safe and works on that. Angela says she won't nominate Fessy or Bayleigh. She didn't say she wouldn't renom!

Nominations ceremony time! Angela nominates Scottie, then Rockstar. She says it's a weird week and they need to try to win safety. Rockstar cries some more. 

Finally Hacker Comp time. They're in what looks like a hotel hallway heading to their computers. Each round a scrambled BB word on the screen, must type it on keyboard, first three in each round gets a point. One with the most points after seven rounds wins.

Internet rumors were right -- Haleigh wins. She isn't planning on telling anyone.

They get called into the living room.
Scottie comes off and is replaced with Tyler.

Haleigh tells us the Tyler has been riding the fence and playing both sides.

Scottie is honestly shocked. 

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Sunday Morning - August 5

Having a good time with her punishment

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Pride and Punishment:

• Not much strategic happened in the late night/overnight hours.
• Angela will still take Tyler down and the plan is to backdoor Bayleigh.
• Last night ended up more about observing personal interactions.
• Fessy is worried that the show might be making his friendship with JC as being "weird" or stupid. Both Haleigh and Rockstar told them they're sure the show is having a lot of fun with it. (Which they are, of course.)
• Fessy quickly shut down Haleigh when she said something him worrying about seeming gay -- he said he's not worried about that at all. He just doesn't want to look stupid. (Well, he doesn't come across as the brightest bulb in the pack, but it's not due to his friendship with JC!)
• Fessy also said that, when he's evicted, he should pick up JC and carry him out the door with him! Now, THAT would be a hoot! He should do it! Of course, the show would make him give JC back, but ...!
• Rockstar is really changing and for the better. While she's still hanging some with Bayleigh, it's been Sam with her more.
• Rockstar is really working on her punishment and embracing it although she apparently has little or no chef skills at all. She says she prefers to eat healthy and exercise and this gives her the impetus to do both.
• Sam is helping her with the food prep tasks and exercising with her. She asked Rockstar if that bothered her at all and Rockstar said she loved her assistance.
• Rockstar and Sam talked well into the night about the game and life in general. No whacko self-chosen outfits and weird persona involved at all. She's bearable, even to the point of likable, when she's not trying to be so weird.
• Haleigh is completely bamboozled by Tyler. In a talk with Fessy, she went on about how Tyler was so out of his element in this game, too naive, too gullible, too innocent ... she feels sorry for him.
• BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
• Bayleigh continued to make brief appearances mimicking mingling with the others, but stayed either alone or with her crew most of the time. Sometimes with the bible, sometimes not.
• Scottie noticeably didn't hang around alone with Haleigh or Bayleigh.
• Haleigh, Rockstar and Fessy think that Sam is ex-military, perhaps a correction officer or a game warden. Rockstar had no clue what a game warden is. Haleigh told her but she definitely had parts of the job way off base. 
• Sam thinks she is going to be a great jury member -- she loves each one of them and wants to give each one special attention when they need it.
• That's really nice.
• But it's not Big Brother.
• Kaycee's peanut costume is a lot easier than many in the past.
• Brett's 24-hour InstaGranny hasn't come into play yet.
• Today will probably be on the boring side -- the PoV meeting isn't until tomorrow, the yard will be open and no real kerfuffles on the horizon.
• Tonight on the show, we'll see the Hacker winner.
• Most of them think it's Bayleigh. 
• The internet thinks it's Haleigh.
• I think it could very well be Haleigh, but if so I'm surprised she hasn't said a word to anyone. 

Mr. Gullible

Sir Bamboozle chows down

We're so good!

Becoming human

Take a picture, America! Um. Okay.

Kaycee's peanut costume better than many

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Saturday Night - August 4

Tyler consoles Scottie

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Take THAT, Hacker!:

• As I mentioned in my previous post, Angela won the Power of Veto.
• Tyler won a trip to Hawaii and Scottie won $5,000.
• Kaycee got a nut costume for a week. Brett got something called InstaGranny for 24 hours. I'm not sure what Rockstar got other than eliminated early.
• Of course and without a doubt, Angela will take Tyler off the block.
• In public and at the veto comp, she promised both Tyler and Scottie they would be safe.
• The Hacker winner, quite possibly but not confirmed to be Haleigh, had chosen Kaycee to play for veto.
• The Hacker obviously didn't realize that Kaycee would have also taken Tyler off the block.
• Most of the Level 4 (no longer 6) alliance think Bayleigh was the Hacker.
• The consensus among them is to backdoor Bayleigh.
• Scottie had a tearful talk with Tyler and Angela. 
• It's dawned on him that the girls in his alliance, more so than Fessy, have been blaming everything on him, using him and making him swear on the Bible almost every time he tried to defend himself.
• Aha! More ammo for Level 4!
• Angela wants to use the "making people swear on the bible" bit in her veto speech.
• Tyler likens it to Kaitlyn wanting him to swear on his dead father.
• Now, Level 4 isn't just going to accept Scottie into the fold with open arms.
• But, like with Sam and JC (not in Level 4), they will be willing to work with him and try to protect them.
• And, they won't threaten him.
• He will be a lone wolf anyway. Might as well not be an abused lone wolf.
• Rockstar, Scottie and Tyler were talking shortly after the feeds returned. Rockstar was all depressed. Tyler tried to tell her she would be safe now when he comes off the block. "No, that means you're safe," she said. He had to go into detail that whoever went up in his place would be a backdoor and the target would be off of her.
• Duh!
• I need to mention something that annoys me as much, if not more, than Haleigh chewing her fingernails -- JC NEEDS TO STOP TAPPING STUFF! Often whatever he is tapping is at his chest level and the mic picks up loudly on it. The worst is the Jenga block tapping. But all needs to stop.
• Fessy is worried that he will be the replacement nom.
• Nah, not yet, Fessy. Eventually, though, eventually.
• Ah, Rockstar's punishment is some kind of Jessie Fitness Diet thing. Jessie was the host of their PoV comp.
• Bayleigh and Haleigh are scrambling. 
• They need to be. 
• Haleigh and Rockstar even went to Angela saying there was a "boys alliance" that all the guys are in.
• Oh my, do they think Angela still has faith in the girls alliance? (Not that she ever did.)
• I think that Angela's mind is already made up and it sure should be interesting when it goes down! 

Scottie feels used and abused

Would rather the trip or the money

Duh. What do they mean I'm safe now?

Well, this is a series of unfortunate events

Let's blame everything on Scottie!

It pays to have a good alliance.

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds, PoV Winner - August 4

Why did Scottie want the veto so bad?

The veto comp (blocked to the live feeds) is done and over. It was a running little balls balancing kind of prize and punishment comp. And, of course, the earlier ones out could lose what they won by the later hamsters.

Angela is getting all kinds of heat for refusing to take five grand from Scottie in trade for the veto. He begged her. However, Tyler had yet to go, she didn't know what was in the boxes and she, most of all, wanted to ensure Tyler's safety.

Angela won the veto. She plans to pull Tyler down. Her teammates claim it will expose Angela/Tyler closeness. They're coming up with stories that she promised Tyler safety because she couldn't deal with granny panties. Um, sounds good to me as long as she takes Tyler down!

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Saturday Morning - August 4

Bras do serve a purpose

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Too Many Twists:

• I've seen online where Julie Chen mentions there will be yet another big twist before the season is out.
• I wouldn't want to be a house hamster. 
• Then again, I would never be one anyway.
• Overall last night was pretty much as Bayleigh said at one point -- "This place is a ghost town."
• No one has admitted to being the hacker winner who took Scottie down and put Tyler in his place on the block.
• The hacker can still nullify one vote and pick a veto player.
• That's a heck of a lot of power! Thankfully, from what I've read, this twist will only last two weeks. So, we go through it again next week. Argh.
• Rumors outside the house have it that Haleigh won the hackers comp. Now, IF she did, I'm thinking she wouldn't put herself to play veto -- she's not good in comps. AND, if she were to choose someone else, she would want to tell them what to do. So, if it's her, that might expose her.
• Of course, we should find out in Sunday's show who won it. 
• In the house, Tyler, Kaycee and Angela are increasingly thinking Bayleigh has it.
• They still have it in their minds to backdoor Bayleigh if they can.
• Sam has a new idea that she wants to precook several dishes that the others can just heat up and serve at will.
• Gosh, Sam would be such a good roommate in a cabin in the woods! She cooks, she cleans, she's so handy with stuff, knowledgeable about nature ... she just might not be the epitome of a BB hamster. But she's pretty darn hardworking and amazing. 
• Of the guys, Brett is the most handy in the kitchen and does his fair share of dish washing and stuff. JC tries to cook, but often burns things.
• Tyler is psyched to win today's veto comp and take himself off the block.
• Rockstar is sure her own run is over and is thinking about the jury house.
• Fessy is really confused.
• But what else is new?
• Tyler has decided that Scottie is loyal to him and would take him down if he wins the veto.
• And, it sounds like the veto is on already!
• The hamsters were awakened VERY early and we went to BB reruns on the feeds for the veto player pick.
• In addition to Angela, Tyler and Rockstar we have Brett, Scottie and Kaycee playing.
• Out of the people playing, I think Rockstar is about the only one who wouldn't save Tyler. Perhaps Scottie wouldn't, but Tyler did save Scottie once and Scottie is a loyal kind of guy.
• We'll see.  

Winston would be proud

Figuring the numbers

Finally quasi-covering a gaping yawn

NO! Nonononono! Make it stop!

"I identify with Schroeder in Peanuts."

BB Voice: I SAID IT'S TIME TO GET UP!

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds, Hacker Comp. Friday - August 3

Lots of fish cam and reruns today

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Hacker Hamsters:

• The Hacker Comp had them taken from the house and had to do with typewriting words related to BB from available letters.
• No one admitted to winning it.
• Many think Scottie won it.
• He (like everyone else) denied winning it.
• He might have gone a bit too far in saying it made no sense for him to win. He kept saying he wouldn't be able to play for veto and a few other excuses why it wouldn't make sense for him to win and put someone in his place.
• They got called into the Diary Room one by one.
• And then we got reruns.
• I really didn't want to see Frankie.
• Oh noes!
• The Hacker winner took Scottie off the block and replaced him with ... TYLER.
• Rockstar is very upset.
• Bayleigh thinks someone from "the other side" did it.
• That other side is Tyler's side.
• Hmm.
• It's looking like Scottie to me!
• There's also talk the Hacker winner can replace a vote and another rumor about veto.
• Straight up as is, Tyler would stay over Rockstar.
• Hmm.
• JC, Kaycee and Angela think Bayleigh won it. They're trying to figure out which person's vote she'll cancel and if she will choose herself for veto (?).

Psst. I think either Tyler or Brett won

Will I be in danger?

Brett: I think Scottie has it.

Stop chewing your fingernails!

No, I didn't win it.

I just wish it was over!

Big Brother 20: Nominations are In! - August 3

After a long feeds block and a mysterious Cloud mention, the nominations are in. The feeds were blocked so long that I think the Hacker Comp had to play a part!

From the talk Angela and JC were having, it's Rockstar and Scottie on the block with a back-up backdoor of Bayleigh. 

Okay, a look at the nominations on the wall confirms it.

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Friday Morning - August 3

"I suck at this game."

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Feast or Famine:

• Nah, I'm not talking Have Nots. I'm talking activity!
• The feeds were down for quite a time here after the live show on the East Coast.
• When they came back, Rockstar seemed beside herself and exiled herself in the storage room crying for a long time.
• Kaycee pointed out to the others that Rockstar had come so close to seeing photos of her kids; that's why she was so upset.
• JC said she cried after each HoH.
• I say, people who claim to miss their family so much should think twice about going on a three month long reality television show.
• I'm sorry. I'm mean. 
• When she finally did talk, she said she was a "math-tard."
• For the longest time, Bayleigh paced back and forth alone upstairs in the hallway, muttering to herself.
• Scottie and Fessy spent a lot of time looking confused.
• In contrast to the viewer excitement over the blindside and Rachel's Epic Exit, the hamsters themselves were quite subdued.
• By the way, all remaining hamsters have made jury.
• They are all happy with that. 
• Sam baked cookies because so many people were just moping around.
• Angela told Sam that she (Sam) can consider this week a vacation week and assured her safety.
• But Sam has a bug up her butt about Haleigh and feels that Haleigh will be all over Angela for the entire week.
• Oh. And Brett and Haleigh snuggled in the storage room. Well, after Rockstar vacated it, mind you.
• Oh, Brett! She voted for you to go home!
• Tyler told Fessy and Rockstar that Rachel told him about Bayleigh's power.
• Later on, Fessy kept saying he knew nothing about the power to Tyler. Tyler knows better.
• Remaining Level 6 plus JC sat and figured out that, no matter what happens, they will decide who leaves this week -- if the house sides vote a tie, it's Angela with the tiebreaker. Win-win.
• Scottie, Rockstar, Haleigh and Fessy all intermittently argued about who flipped. JC even got in that action and played off his part well!
• They apparently would rather think it was each other, not Tyler. Heh.
• Bayleigh ended up telling both Sam and Tyler separately all about her power -- including the fact it's good until the final eight.
• Bayleigh is still drinking Tyler's Kool-Aid. 
• The feeds cut out to BB reruns! A shot rang out! The maid screamed!
• Er, no. Okay. BB told them about the Hacker Comp in the feeds blockage.
• It seems that the Hacker winner can replace one hamster on the block and Bayleigh's power cannot override it.
• Angela thinks it diminishes her own HoH reign. I agree. Tyler pointed out to her that it also diminishes Bayleigh's power.
• Kaycee thinks the Hacker comps will be similar to the Roadkill ones a few seasons back. I would like that myself. Those were fun.
• In their talk, Tyler and Angela discussed flushing out Bayleigh's power by putting her up with Fessy. But then decided the best noms would be Rockstar and Fessy, telling Fessy he's the pawn and Scottie is the backdoor target.
• Tyler told Angela he plans to go for the win in the Hacker Comp.
• Angela did one-on-one talks and, if you just listen to it, it sounded like she and Bayleigh will be together to the end.
• I doubt it. If anything, she might try to backdoor Bayleigh this week. Her alliances are not with Bayleigh.
• So many are doing a good social/talking game this season! Tyler is going to be legendary. But JC and now even Angela are working it. And, then there's Sam who really does and says her own thing, but then makes each other hamster feel special.
• Well, I don't think she'll make Haleigh feel special this week, but ...!
• Oh, geez Sam.
• She called a house meeting and suggested they all refuse to play the Hacker Comp, let her win it and she will promise not to use it.
• @@
• Oh, that's just not gonna happen. Sam thinks it would put control of the game back in their hands. Others think it would just put it in her hands.
• Heck, they wouldn't even agree to vote on it!
• Meanwhile the Who Betrayed Whom Debate continued with Rockstar and Bayleigh. Bayleigh kept accusing Rockstar of having an alliance with Brett.
• Again, Tyler did not appear a suspect.
• Bayleigh, Rockstar and Haleigh still want their final three. Well, according to Bayleigh, that is.
• Rockstar cried some more.
• Sam tried to console Rockstar.
• Oh, but then Bayleigh and Haleigh "ganged up" on Rockstar.
• Bayleigh claims that Rockstar and Scottie are "masterminds of the game."
• So not so!
• Especially not Rockstar!
• In her one on one with Bayleigh, Bayleigh told Angela all about her power and said she wouldn't be using it unless Fessy goes on the block. Angela told her she's not going to be putting either her (B) or Fessy up -- she'll be putting up two people who have repeatedly had her name "in their mouths."
• Hmm ... is she implying Scottie and Haleigh? Scottie and Rockstar?
• Angela acted like Bayleigh's BFF. 
• Ha.
• In her talk with Fessy, she told him he's not a target and poked around for information that Scottie had been targeting her. He wouldn't say.
• In her talk with Scottie, he admitted trying to target her when talk was of putting Rachel and her on the block.
• He then said Rockstar was his real target. Angela agreed with that.
• In her (most likely honest) talk with Kaycee, Angela thinks she will put Scottie up as a pawn, Rockstar the target.
• They don't think anyone will save Rockstar with the veto.
• Angela wants the final four to be herself, Brett, Tyler and Kaycee.
• At least that's what she told Kaycee.
• And, it is all Level 6 -- if they can do it, this will be one of those legendary alliances in BB. 
• And on it goes ... 

You're safe this week, Sam.

What is happening?

Maybe they can be Brettleigh

Come see my HoH room!

Scrambling for cover

Scottie: "I'm like a junkyard dog."

Big Brother 20: Live Eviction, HoH Comp Show Blog Party - August 2

Hamster watchers ready?

Oh my ... not Julie Chen's best look -- a red top that looks boxy! But first ... let's have a recap.

Julie tells us another blindside may be in the works. But to which side?  We get a bit of Queen's attitude from the Diary Room. But, she doesn't seem to see Tyler behind anything!

Rachel is freaking. Tyler goes to talk to Bayleigh, further cementing her trust in him. Ha. She thinks she has a new ally! Ha!

Kaycee and Angela are bothered by Rachel's behavior and think keeping Brett is a better idea. Of course, that's just what Tyler wanted them to think. Brett talks about the number of girls versus guys in the house to JC and Tyler.

Sam tells Tyler she'll do whatever he says. Scottie (of Bayleigh and Co.) is counting Tyler in with their vote to keep Rachel. Tyler has them fooled pretty darn well. 

Tyler tells Brett about Rachel telling Angela about Bayleigh's power. He's trying to think of a way to use that to his advantage. 

Fessy is a bit bugged that Brett and Haleigh are hanging out together. Haleigh tells Brett that she's not a "thing" with Fessy. She tells him she's "pro-Brett." We'll see how that goes.

The next segment will be Swaggy meeting Bayleigh's parents.

Whoa! That's some house she lives in! Her mother referred to her as Queen Bayleigh. Dad asks what his intentions are. He tells them that he loves her.  They seem to like him.

WARNING -- BAD THUNDERSTORMS COMING THROUGH HERE. IF I VANISH, I'M FINE -- HOPEFULLY MY POWER WILL STAY ON! 

To the living room!
Rachel -- Shout-outs to Jesus Christ and all! Hated be on the block next to you. I hope you vote to keep me. Love.
