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:

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!

What? A house meeting?

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!
