In our previous Big Brother Canada adventure:-
- Dane won HoH
- Cory succeeded in her mission to get 3 final 2 deals, namely with Eddie, Kailyn and Damien and will be prolonging her stay in the house along with enjoying a week's immunity
- Dane nominated Kyra and Maki
This episode sees the first Power of Veto competition, will Kyra or Maki be able to pull themselves off the block? Stay tuned to find out as we head into the next installment
We pick up the action straight after the nominations ceremony, and immediately Dane tells us Sam is a back door target due to her closeness to Adam. Kyra has been nominated as an emotional player which is seen as weak. I would call it being human rather than being weak. Maki is just basically the pawn to make sure Kyra goes, but the pawn business doesn't usually go to plan as we have seen before.
Adam, at this point, is getting way too carried away with this potential Samantha showmance. I have a feeling those two will be gone long before jury members will start being decided. Estefania has started a new alliance with Kiera which is called Young Bloods. They are seen discussing Adam's downfall, which will be sweet when it happens hopefully before jury.
Questions are being asked of Dane in the meantime, from the man of the moment specifically Adam, and he is asking who will go up if the Veto is used. The Pretty Boy alliance seems pretty certain none of them are in danger. Oh boy, going to really enjoy watching this alliance getting picked off when it starts.
Kyra promises Dane some others will go hard for the Veto this week, while Dane says he wants total control of the house. My opinion, he's not much of a risk taker.
Veto picks
Kyra and Maki will automatically play and they have to pick 3 others to compete as well. However there is a twist in this series, as the HoH cannot play in the Veto. Courtesy of Trevor Boris on Twitter, the HoH will not be able to compete in the HoH until final 5. Intriguing, and spices things up a bit.
So as it stands, it will be 5 players but the HoH does get to name the replacement nominee if the Veto is used.
Joining Kyra and Maki in the competition will be Anthony, Adam and Chelsea. Chelsea was a joint decision as it was the houseguests choice token that was drawn. Eddie is picked as host.
Dane is not too happy about this twist, and plenty of plotting afoot ahead of the competition. Chelsea promises to use the Veto on Kyra if she wins. Adam walks into the room, causing Kyra to leave almost immediately. Chelsea asks Adam if he will win and he seems very certain he will.
Back to the inevitable showmance, and Samantha admits she is scared and it's patently obvious she is relying on him to win the Veto as well. Oh boy, their downfall is going to be sweet.
Veto competition
On a Row is the name of the game and here is how it works. On the sound of the klaxon, the participants have to collect sap and carry it across a little obstacle course. Namely across some logs and into their respective containers. Falling off the logs means restarting from the beginning, and whoever fills their container up first and collects their ball.
To cut a long story short, the winner is ADAM. He is full of himself as he managed to save his showmance, and Kyra is crying as usual.
A little while later, the showmance is on as Adam and Samantha kiss, but it's very shortlived for now as they have a lovers tiff, and Samantha warns Adam that if he can't play the game with her then she will play it by herself. Couldn;t have gone any better for Chelsea, as she says she will let Adam think he is the big man in this game.
In the aftermath of Cory's secret mission, she admits that out of the 3 she struck deals with, Kailyn will be the best to work with. She is warned though by Kailyn that Dane is watching her (Cory) carefully.
Maki starts his campaign to stay starting with Adam. He wants to plant a seed to get Adam on his side, warning that the girls could tear the boys apart. Meanwhile Anthony is concerned about where Adam's head is at with Samantha, repeating that she has to go. He decides with the help of some others to play on Adam's jealousy of them when they are around Sam. Risky business, jealousy is not a nice thing.
A short while later, Mark gives a nudge nudge wink wink and goes ahead with a long hug with Sam. Adam's turning a little green as planned, saying it's not right. Anthony suggests that this will be the way they will control Adam, in using his jealousy against him.
Veto ceremony
As Adam won the Veto he can either take Kyra or Maki off the block or keep the nominations. After a short deliberation in HQ, he then asks Kyra and Maki to state their cases about the Veto possibly being used on them. Kyra kind of knows the Veto will not be used, while Maki thinks he can be competition if he is saved.
Adam decides NOT to use the Veto, so it will be Kyra or Maki that will head out to Arisa in the next episode. Kyra says no surprise, but feels Maki may have made a rookie error and put the target firmly on his back. Dane, meanwhile, more or less says Samantha is being watched closely and once she is on the block she will be gone.
