Big Brother USA - Episode 5 - Eviction 1 and HoH competition 2

Hello and greetings, citizens of Big Brother world

The house will be one lighter tonight as Sam or Steve will be shown the door, but Sam will have the chance to use her power she got from the app store, as in she will have a chance to go back in should she be evicted, BUT she has to complete a challenge of some sort to earn her place back

When we last left the houseguests in the previous episode, Faysal won the Power of Veto but didn't use it so Tyler's nominations stayed the same

Thankfully the pinwheel and Robot punishments will be no more after this eviction, so if Sam stays she can finally get to work properly in this game.

Personally I think Sam is adorable, and got dealt a rough card to start. This will be her opportunity and hope she takes it once the punishment is officially done.

To the house action, but first.....

Julie welcomes us in to the first not so live eviction for this season, and we get the VT for previous events as described above and in the previous posts

The highlights have been shortened for this episode in case Sam is evicted and has to do the challenge to get back into the house. If it doesn't happen, then whoever is evicted will have a longer interview. Can't really accuse them of not being prepared ;)

Into the house we go for a shortened version of events before whatever is going to happen at eviction time. 

We kick off after the Veto meeting has concluded where Faysal has NOT used the Veto, and Tyler tells us he is super pumped about it not being used. Sam thanks America for letting her choose the Bonus Life. Steve admits he is disappointed, but is relying on his little group to stay

7 votes to keep Sam in, says Tyler, and the Level 6 alliance needs Sam as a number

Steve is confident he has the numbers to stay in, as Kaitlyn of all people counts the votes that will come his way to save him.

Kaitlyn strongly hints at a possible showmance between her and Faysal

ROBOT ONLINE sounds and off we go again for another appearance of Sammy 5. We get a segment where the robot is dressed up in a bra and panties and introduced as the sexy robot.

And now off to Haleigh and Faysal, and another possible showmance. Haleigh thinks Faysal is super cute....This is going to go down well with the resident nutter, Kaitlyn, isn't it

And sure enough, jealousy starts to creep in with Kaitlyn, more on that later I think

Haleigh tells us about weighing up the possibilities of a showmance, and the next thing we see is her jumping into Faysal's bed and instant slurpage ensues

Kaitlyn telling us how dumb this game is as Faysal and Haleigh are 2 of her best friends and it's all so bad. Touch of the green eyed monster I would think as Haleigh beat her to the showmance she wanted, despite the fact that Kaitlyn has apparently has a chap on the outside but that's only a rumour and will be confirmed as such if true at a later date

In the HoH room, Kaitlyn has burst into tears. Green eyed monster has been unleashed, hide the breakable objects I would say

Back to the studio, and it's a technical glitch as someone has muted the sound or Julie's mic

Eviction

Julie talks to the house, and gets proceedings underway

In case you are not familiar by now with the North American format, the HoH has the deciding vote in the event of a tie or not allowed at all, and the two nominees are not allowed to vote

Short speeches from Sam and Steve before the vote starts

And we're off

Scottie votes to evict Sam
JC votes to evict Steve
Chris votes to evict Sam
Bayleigh votes to evict Sam
Rachel votes to evict Steve
Kaycee votes to evict Steve

Julie calls a break with the vote at 3-3

(COMMERCIAL)

Faysal votes to evict Sam
Haleigh votes to evict Sam
Angela votes to evict Steve
Brett votes to evict Steve
Winston votes to evict Steve
Kaitlyn votes to evict Steve
Angie votes to evict Sam

Evicted: Steve (7-6)

Absolutely delighted with that result and Chris and Bayleigh's faces were absolute pictures as they were certain Sam would be going, how little they know about her power. In any case I really hope that has sped up Chris's downfall and departure

In his interview, Steve said he didn't campaign much. Not very bright for a former cop is he, that or he hasn't really watched this show before. He is shown a few best bits and also got his goodbye messages.

As said earlier, a longer interview than normal to compensate for the fact that Sam didn't go and the time it would have taken for her little competition

HoH competition

As outgoing HoH, Tyler is not eligible to compete in this competition.

This competition is called Land a Job and here is how it works. Housemates have to launch a ball into a Sim City type, well, city each with different amounts in dollars on the buildings. The houseguest who lands the highest amount is the new HoH. If the ball lands in the streets, then it equates to zero.

Scottie - $40,000
JC - $0
Brett - $0
Winston - $12,000
Sam - $50,000
Kaycee - $15,000
Faysal - $0
Kaitlyn - $80,000

Angela, Bayleigh, Chris, Angie, Haleigh and Rachel all scored $0

Winner and new HoH - Kaitlyn

Julie announced to Kaycee and Sam that their punishments were officially over

The nut will be running the nuthouse until next week, so many in agreement on social media that it will be a very messy week

Final thoughts - A few words to sum that up in "1 out of 2 isn't bad". Excellent result for the eviction, but it's going a be a mess with Kaitlyn as the new HoH. She gets a stay of execution for now, but hopefully her time will come long before the jury members start getting sorted out. Chris out soon with any luck, but his face especially was worth a thousand words when Julie called out Steve as evicted. Now there have been so many hilarious reactions over the years in USA and UK to surprise evictions, and his reaction is right up there

Said reaction for your viewing pleasure -
