10:05 p.m. — “Previously on ‘Big Brother’!” In the 27th episode, the house debated whether to send home Felicia or Mecole, with both options having their pros and cons. Ultimately the players voted unanimously to evict Mecole, making her the final pre-jury boot of Season 25. Later in the backyard, Bowie won her first HOH competition, just narrowly beating Felicia in a tiebreaker math question. Who will Bowie nominate for eviction? Let’s go!
10:09 p.m. — In a rare moment of unity, the Top 9 celebrate making it to the jury phase of the game. Bowie admits she “accidentally” won the Head of Household challenge, saying she wrote down something “absolutely ridiculous” as the tiebreaker. However, after Mecole threw her name under the bus as she exited the house, Bowie is now happy to have some power.
10:11 p.m. — Cameron and America are happy Bowie won, because they both think they’re allied with her. Felicia is happy to “survive the block” three times throughout the summer. She wants to be more and more “strategic” in order to see her path to the Final 2. Cory throws a fit in the bathroom because he’s on a losing streak in the house — womp, womp.
10:13 p.m. — Jag reveals Cameron was not on board with changing the vote from Mecole to Felicia last week. So Jag “changed the direction” and tried to manipulate Cameron into thinking getting rid of Mecole was a better way to make Cory think he wasn’t as smart as he really was. “Cory gets to be the fall guy,” Cameron says in the Diary Room. As we already know, Jag’s true alliance is to his fellow Minute Man, Matt.
10:15 p.m. — Cirie and Felicia talk about Felicia’s terrible guess in the HOH tiebreaker. Cirie doesn’t think her relationship with Bowie has ever “recovered” since the Red ouster all those weeks ago. She is going to pretend to be Bowie’s best friend this week so that Cirie doesn’t go up on the block.
10:17 p.m. — Bowie confesses to the audience that she’s working with almost everybody in the house. Jag and Matt want to take her to the Final 3 because she’d be easy to beat in the end. Similarly, Cory and America are including Bowie in their own Final 3 plan. “I am not stupid,” notes the Australian DJ, because she knows they’re all playing her. “It is time for me to take on the challenge of me playing my own game.”
10:22 p.m. — Cirie and Blue bond over Jared leaving the game. They’re getting closer in the house since his ouster. Cirie doesn’t have “loose lips,” Blue explains, which is why she can trust her. Blue wants to win HOH and nominate Cory and America for eviction. “Let’s play!” she says.
10:24 p.m. — Cory (while in the shower) tells America that he wants to “lock down Bowie” into their Final 3. In a flashback, Matt reveals to Cory that Cameron wants to go after him. So now Cory wants to “backdoor” Cameron if he gets the ability to do so.
10:26 p.m. — Cory tells Jag that Blue and Cameron are “the next two that need to go.” America is on board, and both showmance partners are trying to convince Jag and Matt to join them. Cory wants to try to convince Bowie to put up both Blue and Cameron at the impending nominations ceremony. Matt is hesitant because Bowie might be “scared” to make that move. “That’s a horrible idea,” Matt says in the Diary Room. All of a sudden, Cameron comes into the room and everyone goes silent … awkward!
10:30 p.m. — Jag needs help from Cameron in folding his pink turban. “I’m giving them a tutorial,” Jag tells the audience. Bowie loves the “color coordination” he has going on. Matt says Jag is “always looking fly … always matching his outfits.”
10:32 p.m. — Felicia, Cirie and Blue are chatting about who Bowie might be putting up. “Choo choo!” Blue shouts. She has been “waiting for people to be on board” the eliminate-Cory train with her, ever since Cory ousted Jared. Felicia says the whole house is on “red alert” about realizing Cory and America are huge threats in the game. And then Bowie comes into the room, immediately silencing the discussion.
10:35 p.m. — Jag and Matt have joined Cirie and Felicia in the bedroom. The four of them are talking about how Cory is “genius” at what he’s doing in the game. “We need to turn the flame all the way up,” Cirie says. The ladies are trying their hardest to try to get the boys to convince Bowie to put up Cory and America, but will the plan work out? Jag is “not sure about this” because he wants to keep Cory around “as a shield” to help protect himself.
10:37 p.m. — Now it’s Cameron and Matt who are talking about the Cory problem. Getting Cory out of the way would make Cameron feel “a whole lot better” in the game. Matt wants to meet with his “only true ally,” aka Jag, to decide what decision would be best for their game this week. Um, isn’t Bowie the one who’s actually Head of Household?
10:42 p.m. — Soft background music plays as Felicia opens up about going into the Air Force. She was in a bad relationship with a “fool” years ago who physically abused her. “I gotta leave [this situation],” she explains, which is why she joined the military. Cameron feels closer to her now because he also has a military background. “I just completely respect the person that she is,” Cameron admits. Felicia urges the audience to “get help” if they need help at home.
10:45 p.m. — Jag and Matt are talking about what the “best move” is for their games. Cory and America don’t have “any power” without them, they realize. The best option for the week would be Cameron leaving the house, either “now” or “next week.” They “can’t trust” Cameron completely, even though they are all in the Fugitives alliance together.
10:47 p.m. — Now Bowie is finally getting the low-down from Matt and Jag. She trusts them “the most in this house,” she says, even though she’s worried about possibly getting manipulated. “The people on the other side need to go away,” Bowie says in reference to Felicia and Cirie. Bowie is adamant that Felicia is definitely “a threat.” As Jag and Matt throw out Cameron’s and Blue’s names, Bowie interrupts and says she is “not gonna put Cameron up,” because he kept her safe during all three of his HOH reigns.
10:54 p.m. — Bowie is having one-on-ones with everyone left in the game. Cirie says she doesn’t “want to pressure” Bowie’s decision. Cory urges the Aussie to put Cameron and Blue on the barbie. America (obviously) echoes those exact same thoughts. Bowie finds that ridiculous, because if she were to put up a duo, it would be Cory and America. Instead, Bowie wants to put up “who doesn’t like me in this game.” Now it’s Blue’s turn, and she’s throwing out the names Cory and America (duh). Bowie has “a history” with Felicia and Cirie, being that she was betrayed with them back when the Bye Bye Bitches went after Red. Felicia also name-drops Cory.
10:58 p.m. — Finally, Cameron says nominating Felicia and Cirie would be the “easy” thing to do. He wants Bowie to nominate Cory and America. Now Bowie has to “make decision” and time is running out.
11:01 p.m. — It’s time for the nominations ceremony. Bowie will turn the two keys of the players who will be her nominees for the week. She chooses … Felicia and Cirie! This is Felicia’s fourth time on the block, and Cirie’s first time as a nominee. “I am so sorry I have to do this,” Bowie tells her former allies. “When in doubt, blame Cory!” she shouts before exiting the wrong way.
11:03 p.m. — Bowie thinks Cirie is “the bigger threat” this week. Cirie has been trying to avoid this moment “like the plague” and wants everyone to think “this is okay.” Depending on how the Veto plays out, Cirie is willing to let her “powers of persuasion” come out. Felicia intends to “come off this fourth time” and vows to win the Veto. Matt still thinks he can convince Bowie to backdoor Cameron if that’s at all possible. Cameron wants to win the Veto and use it so that Bowie can backdoor Cory.
11:05 p.m. — Find out how the Power of Veto plays out on Tuesday night, when Zingbot returns to the house!
