Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Friday - August 10

The rainbows were bad luck!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Cries and Sighs:

• Oh my gosh.
• Now, I like Sam as a person. I think she's so intriguing, talented and good-hearted.
• But she got me irked last night (and even the day before).
• She was NEVER close to Bayleigh until two days ago.
• Now it's like the end of the world that Bayleigh got voted out and Sam was the only vote to keep her.
• Now she thinks Tyler stopped talking to her and no one tells her what's going on.
• This is after Tyler broke his silence about his power and confided in her about his power telling her Bayleigh needed to be voted out because she would come after him with her power this week.
• Sam cried to anyone she could. Except Tyler.
• She thinks everyone is making fun of her.
• She moped around complaining she was always stuck in the kitchen and should have gone home instead of Bayleigh.
• Say what? It's been her choice to be in the kitchen! And, she wasn't on the block!
• Now, I can see why Haleigh said before last night that she should go instead of Bayleigh (when she wasn't on the block either). She had a legitimate guilt case going on because she indeed had been close to Bayleigh all along and was responsible for Bayleigh going on the block, however inadvertently. Totally understandable thoughts on her part.
• But Sam has been a Johnny Come Lately in her "friendship" with Bayleigh.
• No one is angry with her about her vote. The vote meant nothing when it's six to one.
• She's losing it.
• As a result, in most of Haleigh's one-on-one meetings -- held again through the middle of the night due to nominations being in the morning due to the second and last Hacker comp later -- Sam's name kept being brought up.
• Of course, Haleigh won't nominate Fessy. He's smitten and she's not, but he is her friend and confidante.
• She also won't nominate her snuggle buddy Brett.
• Nor will she nominate Scottie -- she likes to lead him on some, too.
• Heck, she's even hung all over JC at times! She won't put him up.
• Supposedly she's mended fences with Tyler and Angela.
• But not really.
• She's never had any sort of real relationship with Kaycee.
• Her ultimate goal this week is Tyler out. But she knows it won't be easy. But even JC mentioned to her that she could backdoor Tyler. Oh my.
• She's thinking Sam and Angela or Sam and Kaycee, then backdooring Tyler. Then she leaned towards Angela and Kaycee, still with a backdoor Tyler plan.
• With the Hacker comp interference ahead, it's not going to be easy to accomplish any kind of goal.
• If Sam were to go on the block and keep up her crying and moping and wanting to go home, she could very well get her wish. I mean, she's a great person and all, but if she's irking me I can't imagine what they think.
• And Tyler needs to have his game on for the Hacker comp and Veto.    

I'm the only one who loves Rockstar!

Wah. No one ever tells me anything!

Wah. I want to go home!

Haleigh's HoH -- Brett is SO safe

Scottie's not in danger either

Haleigh reads her HoH letter

Fessy, she's just not that into you

Big Brother 20: Live Eviction, HoH Show Blog Party - August 9

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!

Either Rickstar or Bayleigh will be evicted tonight. I doubt we'll see a "house" vote. I'm not sure how they will fit all that should be fit into one measly hour. It should be a thrill a minute! I dare say it might be the best single episode in years.

What's a party without a pool? Here's where we stand going into tonight's show:

Sam Bledsoe - Shayne McCaslin, HowSad, tbc, Sharon C
Haleigh Broucher - Brian, Sharon S, Monty924, Buzzmaam
Kaycee Clark - Sharon N, Skyriverblue, Indiana Jane, Jenna G
Tyler Crispen - SueGee, Glenn Allen, Jessica Underwood-James, JennasMom
Bayleigh Dayton - Ayana, Margo, Krysta Gibson, KelseyNY
Angie Rockstar Lantry - Merilee, Babs, Jean in Tampa, Chauncey
JC Monduix - Brenda, Delee, T-Town Chick, Willie J
Brett Robinson - Judi Sweeney, Lovelakexo, Ed in Ohio, JonMD1267
Angela Rummans - Janice, Chacha, QuixoticElf, Tilda

Faysal Fessy Shafaat - Caela, Marthalight, Cheryl in NC, Marina Tatum

Evicted:
Steve Arienta
Chris Swaggy C Williams
Winston Hines
Kaitlyn Herman
Rachel Swindler

Hamster watchers ready?

Previously on ... and blah, blah, blah. Let's get this show on! Aha, the house goes completely nuclear! Julie tells us it's been a tumultuous week.

But first, Bayleigh has no idea her closest ally has the key tp clearing her name. Bayleigh is repeatedly saying she's not the Hacker. Bayleigh thinks Tyler came at her, but it looked the other way around. He ended up telling her that he will vote to evict her.

Hayleigh looks miserable as she talks with Bayleigh. But she's reluctant to tell her the truth that she's the Hacker.

Cool! Brett's InstaGranny punishment arrives! He has to take care of her needs for 24 hours! It's a hoot! It looks like the Yell guy in drag to me!

Back to serious ... Haleigh is crying in the DR, ridden with guilt over the Hacker bit. Ah, the house meeting is next. This was EPIC on the live feeds!

Haleigh tells Bayleigh that she's the Hacker. Bayleigh cries. Haleigh cries. Bayleigh insists she's not mad at Haleigh and they cry some more. Haleigh wants to tell the whole house that they owe Bayleigh an apology.

Haleigh calls the house meeting, loves them all, several owe Baleigh an apology, including herself because last week she won the Hacker comp. Wasn't personal. She says that Tyler wanted Angela backdoored. Then Bayleigh starts screaming. At Tyler. She went berserk! 

To the living for the live vote --
Rockstar -- Shout-outs. Love being here, here on a mission, would like not to be Julied in this outfit, nothing bad to say about Bayleigh.
Bayleigh -- Thanks God and CBS, have nothing crazy to say, apologizes to Tyler for yelling at her. Vote for me to stay or Julie, I'll see you soon.

The live vote to evict:
Haleigh Hacker keeps Tyler, wearing his Hacker Hoodie, from voting (as expected)
Kaycee -- Bayleigh
Brett -- Bayleigh
Fessy -- Bayleigh
Scottie -- Bayleigh
Haleigh -- Bayleigh
Sam -- Rockstar
JC -- Bayleigh

Six to one, Bayleigh is to be the first jury member. After muttering that the big scary black lady is out of the house, she hugged all. Although a bit dramatic, her interview with Julie was NOT like Rachel's last week. Angela and Brett didn't win her jury vote in their goodbye messages.

HoH comp -- Corporate Office of PortaPick. Long hashtag, three photos, decipher hashtag and buzz in with correct photo. It's a face-off kind of comp.

JC and Sam -- Sam eliminated
Rockstar and Tyler -- Tyler out
Kaycee and Brett -- Kaycee out
Haleigh and Fessy -- Fessy out
Scottie and Brett -- Scottie out
Haleigh and Rockstar -- Rockstar out
JC and Brett -- Brett out
JC and Haleigh -- JC out

HALEIGH wins HoH!

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds Wednesday Brouhaha! - August 8

Watching BFF Bayleigh pack her bags

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Brouhaha!:

• Now, they knew I live on the East Coast.
• They knew I had to go to pool therapy (back surgery recovery) late this afternoon.
• So, what do they do? They sleep in late! Late in West Coast time!
• They owe me an apology.
• They NEED to apologize to me!
• DID YOU HEAR ME?!?! I'M NOT LEAVING THIS POST UNTIL THEY APOLOGIZE!
• I WILL SCREAM UNTIL THEY DO!
• Ahem.
• Just a personal note about me -- I've never demanded an apology for anything in my life. I actually don't believe in the idea. If someone does apologize to me for something, I love it. But a demanded apology is usually not a sincere one.
• I've caught up thanks to an extended feeds block tonight.
• Heck, I've even rewatched the brouhaha a few times!
• It all started with Haleigh calling a house meeting.
• She told them all that she was the Hacker, not Bayleigh. She claimed they all owed Bayleigh an apology for how they've treated her.
• She claimed she put Tyler up because of things he told Kaitlyn that got back to her such as he didn't think anyone would put him up and how he and Kaitlyn were working both sides of the house.
• And then it happened.
• Bayleigh went absolutely berserk on Tyler demanding an apology.
• She was a mad woman.
• Tyler just kept denying everything.
• And Bayleigh got worse and worse.
• It was definitely THE MOST EPIC SCREAM FEST ever in the BB house!
• She screamed so hard she started bleeding from her mouth.
• She went to the DR and Scottie asked her if she was okay.
• "NO! I'm NOT okay! I think I lost a tooth!"
• Say what?
• No, she didn't lose a tooth screaming. She actually bit the inside of her mouth while screaming. Still a bit scary.
• Afterwards she did start joking about she knew she could be a bit crazy, but she surprised herself by being so crazy.
• Yet I haven't seen her apologizing to Tyler?
• And, it bugged me that Sam went running after her when Tyler was the target of her ire and also not in great shape after that.
• Brett is making buddy with Fessy. But I have no doubt he's loyal to his alliance. He's a good actor.
• He told Bayleigh and Fessy he was just relieved not to be actually involved this time.
• Angela, Tyler and Kaycee say it doesn't matter -- Bayleigh still has her power. She needs to go.
• Both Scottie and JC talked to them at different times.
• The plan is still on. This changes nothing.
• The house is sort of back to its non-fighting self.
• But this was epic. I do hope they show it tomorrow night!
• After the feeds block I see Bayleigh working on Scottie. He's becoming as good an actor as our Level 6/4 Players. I do believe he will vote her out despite her promises of safety for him. 

No, I will not follow this recipe!

JC tries to talk game with Fessy

What? A house meeting?

Bayleigh goes berserk on Tyler

The aftermath of hysteria

Scottie to Tyler: "The plan remains."

Big Brother 20: Power of Veto Show Blog Party - August 8

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!

I will be posting a live feeds post later tonight -- I realize that things happened in the house today. But they got up so darn late this morning and then had the nerve to do stuff while I was out doing pool therapy!

As per usual, I'm sitting out the "previously on" segment. Oh, joy. We get to see Jessie "Mr. Pectacular" again. Like I've missed him!

After the hacker puts Tyler on the block, all are abuzz over who the hacker might be. Bayleigh and Company, including Hacker Haleigh, seem to want to point the finger at Scottie as the Hacker. Scottie himself is worried because he can't play veto and might end back up on the block. Tyler is sure that Bayleigh is the Hacker because he told her last week that Scottie was his best friend oin the house.

Now Level 6 is sure the Hacker is Bayleigh. They want her to think the nominations will remain the same and hope she'll pick Kaycee for the Hacker pick. Angela tells Bayleigh that she won't go up on the block. Of course, Level 6 wants Tyler OFF the block. But Bayleigh thinks Kaycee is her buddy. 

Veto player pick time! Hacker screen shows up. Hacker chooses Kaycee. That makes Angela even more sure that Bayleigh is the Hacker. Angela pulls two chips. She gets Scottie. Second chip herself and she chooses Brett.

Doorbell rings and it's Jessie, the veto host. Space Pecs, series of rounds to generate power, rolling an orb (ball) up a ramp. It's the gifts for all, punishments and rewards, trade comp for this season. 

Round One - Rockstar is eliminated, gets the Golden Power of Veto 
Round Two - Anglea out gets Jessie's Fitness and Food Program, trades for the Veto 
Round Three - Kaycee out, gets Healthy Honolulu -- a trip to Hawaii. She keeps it. 
Round Four - Brett out, gets Health Nut punishment, trades for the Hawaii trip.

Meanwhile Scottie promises Tyler that he will take him off the block if he wins the veto. 

Round Five - Tyler wins the round against Scottie. 
Scottie gets Space Bucks, $5,000. Keep or trade? Angela promises him safety if she can keep the veto. He keeps it.
Tyler gets "InstaGranny" - 24 hours of taking care of Jessie's dear Nana. Again, Angela begs to keep the veto. Promises safety.  Tyler ends up taking Brett's trip to Hawaii and giving him the InstaGranny.

Angela has won the Golden Power of Veto!

Bayleigh and Haleigh are flabbergasted. 

Level 6 is still sure Bayleigh is the Hacker and say she will go on the block.

Kaycee gets her big barbells and peanut costume. She has to sing and dance every time the working out song comes on.

Rockstar has to cook healthy food and exercise as per Jessie's voice direction each time she hears him.

Veto meeting time ... Angela saves Tyler and tells them she knows who the Hacker is BAYLEIGH. She nominates Baleigh. Bayleigh basically looks dumbfounded. She has no clue who the Hacker is, but it's not her! Haleigh feels guilty, as she should.

Bayleigh tells Angela that she needs to take Rockstar off and put Scottie back on the block. Um ... well, BAYLEIGH would like that ...!

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Tuesday Night - August 7

Lone wolf making friendly in HoH room

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

• The big news of the day is that Haleigh gave in, couldn't take it any longer.
• She told Bayleigh that she was the hacker.
• Surprisingly, during and after the huge tear fest between the two, Bayleigh seems more relieved that she knows it wasn't someone targeting her.
• Haleigh wants to tell everyone.
• But Bayleigh nixed that.
• Bayleigh must have said she hates everyone there twenty times today.
• It seems she might be more accepting to going to jury than being stuck in there with all those people she hates.
• Bayleigh thinks the ratings will drop if she gets evicted.
• Trust me girl, you're not all that. You showed some promise after Swaggy left, then took a dive when you let power go to your head as HoH. You treated people horribly even considering it's BB. Lately all that you've been doing is holing up with a select few and reading the bible. No great loss.
• Kaycee is genuinely upset because she truly does like Bayleigh as a friend. But that won't keep her from voting her out.
• In their talk, Bayleigh asked Haleigh whose vote she was going to cancel. Then she said she was joking. We can probably guess anyway.
• Neither Sam nor Fessy had any idea there are always double evictions each season. It had to be explained to them.
• Rockstar seems to want to give up her game (played to win money for her children's future) to Bayleigh by going whacko on eviction night.
• Say what?
• Bayleigh is playing up the "I'm pregnant" bit although it doesn't seem that she has had any kind of positive test or anything. Personally, I don't think she is. I could be wrong. But I think some kind of psychological wanting to be pregnant for some reason is more likely.
• She even got off a couch after reading a label it could cause birth defects.
• @@
• Fessy is trying harder to cozy up with Brett.
• Brett is playing the act he does so well. Nah, he isn't close to Angela or Kaycee.
• Ha.
• So, who will Haleigh tell next about her Hackerism?
• Fessy.
• He said he knew it ... and he indeed was the first to suspect her because she gave him a blank look right after the comp when he mentioned the skull and LOSER.
• She thinks if she tells at a house meeting, it could save Bayleigh.
• Fessy disagrees. He thinks it will just make her (Haleigh) a target and everyone would be mad at her.
• Fessy told her it's bad enough she told Bayleigh.
• Oh my. Fessy is actually thinking!
• He thinks Bayleigh would get evicted and she would be in a mess.
• He's right about that.
• Will Haleigh listen to him?
• Laters!  

Hasn't worn those stupid eyeglasses lately

You can almost see the wheels turning

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Tuesday - August 7

Not in complete Audrey Mode

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Bye-Bye Bayleigh:

• Yeah, this is getting up late today. Don't worry -- you didn't miss much.
• Bayleigh exiled herself to bed and seclusion early (when compared to the others) last night.
• Haleigh, who knows better than to tell anyone she herself is the Hacker and it's not Bayleigh, and Fessy are determined to campaign and work for Bayleigh to stay.
• That must make Rockstar feel all warm and fuzzy all over.
• Both Haleigh and Fessy STILL think Tyler's a weak player who floats to the power each week.
• Ha.
• In the Mistaken Bayleigh Hacker arena, there was a funny conversation with Level 6/4 and JC about voting Bayleigh out because she turned their friend Kaycee (Hacker veto pick) into a human peanut.
• Maybe you had to be there.
• The Jessie Diet and Exercise punishment is really punishing Rockstar as time goes on. She ended up taking eight Advil because her whole body hurts.  That was eight in 24 hours, not at one time.
• Yesterday just one task had her doing 720 jumping jacks while cooking. It really isn't too healthy to go from roughly sedentary to that. 
• Rockstar's in no way a favorite of mine, but I do feel bad for her in that regard.
• Now, Haleigh's not my favorite either. But I found out she's a cat lover. I'll put that alone in my Pros column for her.
• Huh. Cons is still full on her.
• Oh, well.
• I can't really get a take on Scottie right now. I do think he will go for the Bayleigh ouster, though. It would be better for his own game in the long run.
• Haleigh thinks, if she got HoH, she would like to backdoor Sam or maybe Tyler.
• Grr.
• I know from watching the feeds that Tyler is a charismatic mastermind behind most of the game moves made so far in the house.
• I also know that Sam is a follower for the most part and not really a threatening to a win player unless she gets to the final two.
• But Haleigh has the roles switched around.
• Sam tried to console Bayleigh this morning.
• Bayleigh thinks the other hamsters have made her look bad and no college or job will take her now.
• Nope, did it to yourself, Bayleigh!
• That said, she certainly wasn't the most embarrassing hamster ever in the history of BB.
• She'll be fine and will have less outrage and personal destruction in her life than Kaitlyn did.
• Now I want it to be Thursday if they're going to be so darn boring!
• Still, this is the best season in years. 
• About time.

Bayleigh turned Kaycee into a peanut!

Rockstar is aching and Advil taking

We NEED a kitten!

Making a rose and telling Sam tales

"Tyler's a weak player."

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

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
