Big Brother USA 2019 - Episode 22 - Power of Veto

When last we left the houseguests, Tommy had won HoH

He nominated Cliff and Kat, while the Field Trip was egg-cruciating for Christie as she finished up in last place and ended up on the block as the third nominee for this week

Meanwhile, her nemesis Jackson won immunity for winning the Field Trip, while Analyse ended up in a chicken suit for a week. Hardly a punishment, but then again Analyse has been pretty invisible this season.

So, anyways, we move into another Veto episode as the nominees look to win Veto and take themself off the block and potentially away from a trip to the jury house for at least another week, and Tommy has said that Kat is his target this week.

A lot of crying ahead, as Christie gets emotional as she thinks America hates her. Oh she has no idea, as she will hang out with the wrong crowd won't she. Jackson would love to be picked for Veto, and it would make his day if Christie was sent packing.

Kat has gone from 60 to zero in terms of happiness, as she is crying as well about being nominated. She is telling Nick he has to get picked for the Veto comp, and he promises he will do all he can to take her off the block. A little hug from Jessica follows, and she admits she does not want to be on the block next to Cliff.

Kat getting hugs all round now as Jackson and Cliff come in to comfort her as well. Jessica advises Kat not to pick Jackson for the Veto, as he said he would fight for her as well. Cliff reminds Kat there are two chances to win Veto, and to send Christie packing.

Christie now saying how unfair it is to be on the block. Does she know what show she's on? Lot of F words coming out as she goes into another panic. More tears in the Diary Room. Nick is telling her that she didn't do anything to be put up. Myself personally I would call it sour grapes on her part, and she should just suck it up and get the hell off her butt and start campaigning.

Pointless segment now with Tommy and Nick. Nick apparently has a crush on Tommy, and we are shown clips of said flirting. Tommy says if only Nick played for the same team he did. Moving swiftly on.....

Tommy as part of his BB Explorer punishment, now has to initiate the Speed of Light. Shortly afterward the punishment is done and Tommy is delighted.

Veto picks

Tommy, Christie, Cliff and Kat are automatically playing as HoH and nominees respectively. This week the picks are a little different, as Tommy will make the two random draws. If he draws out his name or one of the nominees, then that person makes the pick to who will be playing. Sort of a variation of Houseguests choice if you will.

He draws CHRISTIE, and she picks NICK. Second token is CLIFF and he picks JACKSON.

Jackson is obviously delighted with this, and he is confident he can win this comp and get Christie out of there and to jury.

Cliff tells us how focused he is on this Veto. He chased Jack out, and he sure as hell won't be chased out as well. He wants Christie out, and really wants this Veto. He then subjects us to a Cliff dance.

Jackson and Analyse are talking are talking about forming a five player alliance with Jack gone. She reminds Jackson they all have to trust each other. Jackson thinks Christie will put him and Holly up without hesitation, he then goes to say something but hesitates in case it gets reported back to Christie.

Analyse promises she won't say anything, and Jackson tells her he wants Christie out and they wouldn't even have to get blood on their hands. A short time later, Jackson says he would rather play in traffic than work with Christie. Safe to say those two won't be exchanging Christmas cards. Analyse pitches that working with Christie could be good for his game, but Jackson is still reluctant.and says he would be stupid not to take this chance to get Christie out the door.

Veto (OTEV) competition

Waiting for them in the backyard is the paranoid pigeon, and he says, amongst all the ribbing he gives the houseguests, that he'll give a clue about a competition from this summer he'd like to visit and the answer will be hidden in the swamp before them. Simply, the name of the competition is on a tag which they must find amongst the muck in the swamp. The last player to present the answer in each round will be eliminated. The last player standing will win the Veto.

Eliminations in order:

1. Jackson
2. Cliff
3. Christie
4. Kat
5. Nick

Tommy has won Veto and all the power this week, somewhat unfortunately. Don't think we need a Veto ceremony for this one....

Christie is her usual smug self again, knowing she will be safe while everyone else apart from Tommy is kicking themselves. A good chance to get Christie out gone. Just wish they could somehow be tipped off about Tommy and Christie's outside connection, as it is a somewhat unfair advantage.

Now we can only hope Christie doesn't win the next HoH as that would be a total and complete nightmare.

Veto ceremony

Straight down to business, and to absolutely no shock Tommy uses the Veto on Christie. As it was used on Christie, there will be no replacement nominee.

Chalk this twist down as another failure, they should have said the third nominee could not have the Veto used on them. But them is the breaks, and we have a smug Tommy and Christie heading into the next week. Lucky us, I don't think.

It does seem likely we will lose the ever so adorable Kat, as Tommy has named her as his main target. Hopefully she can start the ball rolling to get some people onside for a possible vote flip, we'll have to wait and see. Good luck to her, would rather her stay in the house.
