Big Brother 20 Day 26
July 15, 2018
10:00-11:00 AM: Sam asked Rockstar what she wants to do this week. Rockstar said she wants to keep Winston. Sam questioned why she would do that. Rockstar said Brett has everyone wrapped around his fingers, and the goal is to win $500,000. Rockstar said Brett stands in the way of that, plus he pitched to Scottie that she and Haleigh should leave. Rockstar added that Winston’s game is a lot weaker and he has no social game without Brett. Rockstar asked that Sam please not share that with Brett. Rockstar told Sam that her lady friends in the house have a master plan to keep evicting all of the males in the house. Sam said that would be awesome. Sam said she is in. In the storage room, Rockstar told Haleigh that Kaitlyn is saying she doesn’t want people to think that she is disloyal, and she told Brett that she has him. Rockstar said she wants to remind Kaitlyn that she cornered the two of them to say the only people she is loyal to is them. Rockstar said she thinks Sam is on board. Haleigh counted the two of them, Sam, Bayleigh, Faysal and JC as the votes needed to evict Brett. Haleigh said they don’t need Kaitlyn.
11:00-12:00 PM: Scottie had to choose three have-nots for the week. Brett is automatically one due to the veto competition. Angela, Sam and Tyler volunteered. Kaycee and Sam argued over who should get the last spot. Both wanted to be have-nots this week, but Sam ultimately got it. In the bathroom, Kaycee told Tyler to make sure that Sam doesn’t use her power on Winston. Tyler said Sam came to him last night about a plan to get Scottie to nominate her so that she can get voted out. While Tyler said he told her not to, he said it’s something to discuss since it would save both bros and Sam. Kaycee said that’s true. Tyler was concerned that they might need the power next week though, and he said he doesn’t want to risk Sam leaving permanently. In the kitchen, JC told Angela that he wants Tyler to feel comfortable with him so that he can separate him from Kaitlyn. Angela said she is thinking about getting really close with Tyler while they are have-not this week, hoping to push Kaitlyn and Tyler apart. Angela said Kaitlyn will get mad at her since she is protective over Tyler. JC said Kaitlyn is ridiculous.
12:00-1:00 PM: Winston asked JC if he has heard anything. JC said no. He told Winston that everybody is in the middle. Winston said he doesn’t want to campaign against his buddy. JC explained that people will do what is beneficial for their game whether they campaign or not. Winston said he knows that everybody likes Brett more, including all of the girls who are in love with him. JC said a thing about this cast is that they do what is beneficial for their game anyway. JC told Winston to stop blowing up, cause that is his best strategy right now. Rockstar spoke to Kaitlyn about the vote. Kaitlyn said Brett will have no one if Winston goes, so she can try to make a deal with him. Rockstar said Kaitlyn tried to make a deal with him already, yet he tried to get her and Haleigh on the block. Kaitlyn said she feels like Angela, Kaycee and Rachel will keep Brett. Kaitlyn said she thinks the girls should vote together, making an agreement that Brett will stay but will not be there long term. Rockstar said Winston is not a threat, and he can go at any time. As for Brett, she said he is a threat. Kaitlyn talked about feeling safer with Brett. Rockstar explained that every girl in the house feels the same way that she does about Brett, making Brett dangerous. Kaitlyn said she guesses that Brett has to go then. Rockstar told Haleigh that Kaitlyn is saying she thinks that Angela, Kaycee and Rachel will all vote to keep Brett, so all of the women should stay united. Haleigh said Kaitlyn had better not come to her with that BS. Haleigh was irritated that she supported Kaitlyn in getting Swaggy out since he was coming after her, yet Kaitlyn wont support getting Brett out when she knows that he was throwing her name out there and Rockstar’s name out there.
1:00-2:00 PM: Scottie told Bayleigh he is expecting people to come ask him what he is going to do with the veto. When Bayleigh asked what he is going to do, Scottie asked why he would do anything. Bayleigh said that was her assumption. She asked if he is still on the same page with regards to who he wants to go. Scottie said he doesn’t have a preference, but he expects that Brett will go. Bayleigh said she was under the impression that Brett would go but it seems as though Kaitlyn has changed her mind today. Scottie told Bayleigh that Kaitlyn is full of it if she suggests that the others are wanting to keep Brett, so let people know that. He admitted that it’s good for Kaitlyn to keep Brett since she has attached herself to him. Bayleigh said she plans to listen to Kaitlyn’s thoughts but do what she wants to do.
2:00-3:00 PM: Brett told Bayleigh this is a perfect opportunity for Scottie to backdoor Kaitlyn. While Brett said that he might not make that move based on her opinion, he might if he has Bayleigh’s support. Bayleigh said she is going to let Brett in on a little secret. She said that right now the only person who is wanting to keep him is Kaitlyn. Brett said he is hearing the exact opposite. Bayleigh asked who is telling him that. Brett said it was JC, leading Bayleigh to say not to believe anything that JC says. Bayleigh explained that everyone is saying it’s scary to keep Brett because he is charming and can get into people’s heads. Bayleigh let Brett know that Haleigh and Rockstar think that Brett is coming after them. Brett said he would never target Haleigh, but he has heard since Day 1 that Rockstar is coming after him. Brett said he heard that from JC. Brett assured Bayleigh that she has him. He said nobody will see it. Bayleigh said she has heard that people want to keep Winston to put him on the block for a third week in a row. Bayleigh said she will think about it and figure out what she can do since she would love to have some muscle behind her. Bayleigh spoke to the live feeders about how people are approaching her left and right to reel her in, seeing as they think she is vulnerable because Swaggy left. Kaitlyn said Faysal was freaking out when she told him the last day of her HoH reign.
4:00-5:00 PM: Bayleigh told Kaitlyn about her talk with Brett. She said she told him that she wouldn’t mind keeping him and neither would Kaitlyn. Bayleigh said Brett told her that JC had just come to him to suggest he try to convince Scottie to put Kaitlyn on the block. Bayleigh said she let Brett know that Kaitlyn is the only one pushing for him to stay. Kaitlyn asked if Scottie is going to use the veto. Bayleigh said no. Bayleigh said Brett should stay because Brett will know that Kaitlyn had his back from the start, plus it will set the tone. Kaitlyn said she has been thinking all day that JC needs to go. Bayleigh said JC approached her to tell her that nobody trusts her and nobody wants to talk to her now that Swaggy is gone. Bayleigh said everyone has actually been really nice to her. Kaitlyn talked about how she was open to saving Swaggy last week but JC kept telling her that Swaggy would send her home next week, plus she would embarrass herself if she doesn’t stand up for herself. Kaitlyn said she thinks that Brett staying is best for her game, but she wants to vote with the house. Kaitlyn thinks that the other side will vote to keep Brett. Bayleigh said they should have the votes to keep him even if Rockstar isn’t convinced. Kaitlyn went on to explain why she flipped to evict Steve in week one. She told Bayleigh that Sam had the power and it gave her the ability to replace herself on the block with someone who voted to keep Steve. Kaitlyn said Faysal and Haleigh know but she is not going to tell Rockstar. Bayleigh said she is in shock. Kaitlyn told Bayleigh that in the event that Scottie decides to put her up, Sam is going to save her. Kaitlyn then told Bayleigh that Scottie voted to evict Swaggy. Bayleigh said this is all mind-blowing.
5:00-6:00 PM: Kaitlyn explained to Bayleigh that even if she wanted to keep Swaggy, she couldn’t since everyone on that side would have ratted her out for what she did the previous week. Bayleigh reassured Kaitlyn that she is not mad at her for what she did. Bayleigh said she is not offended since Kaitlyn didn’t put her up. Kaitlyn said she is hoping that Winston, Scottie and JC are three to go before jury. Bayleigh said maybe Swaggy was right that JC is annoying and has to go before jury. Meanwhile, Angela, Rachel and Kaycee discussed that it’s best for Brett to stay. Rachel said they are all strong competitors so it would not make sense to take one out at this point. Angela said she thinks that they should tell JC that Rockstar is trying to start a girls alliance, just to throw Rockstar under the bus. Kaycee said she had the same idea. Looking ahead to next week, Rachel said Faysal and Scottie have to be nominated together, otherwise both could end up safe depending on how the veto plays out. Angela thinks they should target Faysal first. Rachel said she is fine with either, but she will really have to work on her relationship with Scottie if he isn’t going first. Haleigh joined Bayleigh and Kaitlyn in the HoH room. Kaitlyn let her know that she told Bayleigh everything about her game, including about the vote flip. Kaitlyn brought up that Brett can be swayed if he stays, because he will only be focused on getting JC and Scottie out. Bayleigh told Kaitlyn that Scottie was encouraging her to get close to the girls on the other side. Though Bayleigh told Kaitlyn not to share that, Kaitlyn brought it up in front of Haleigh. Haleigh said Scottie is going to be a threat at some point. She thinks that he voted Swaggy out in order to frame her, which made Bayleigh question why Haleigh doesn’t think that Scottie is an immediate threat. Haleigh explained that she felt better about things when Scottie followed through on nominating Brett and Winston.
6:00-7:00 PM: Kaitlyn told Tyler that JC approached Brett to suggest that he campaign for the veto to be used so that she can be backdoored. Kaitlyn explained that Bayleigh told her not to say a word about this. Tyler asked why JC would say that. He asked if Kaitlyn is sure that he said it. Kaitlyn said she is 100% positive since Bayleigh wouldn’t make it up. Tyler pointed out that Brett could have made it up. Kaitlyn said she wants Brett to stay now because he will be targeting JC and Scottie. Elsewhere, Bayleigh told Kaycee she just found out that Kaitlyn voted to evict Steve. Bayleigh said she has concerns about Kaitlyn, Tyler and JC, though she is not so worried about Tyler anymore. Kaycee admitted that she is worried about Faysal targeting her, so she might nominate him next to Kaitlyn or Rockstar. Kaycee asked if Bayleigh trusts Rockstar. Bayleigh said no but told Kaycee that she knows Rockstar is focused on targeting Brett, Winston and Angela ahead of her. Bayleigh told Kaycee that she has no one that she is 100% aligned with since Swaggy left. She told Kaycee she needs her to be that person. Kaycee said she is down for that.
7:00-8:00 PM: Sam asked Scottie if she is going on the block. Scottie said he fought so hard for the veto because he didn’t want to have to put her up. Sam asked if anyone has said anything about her. Scottie said no. Sam worried that Brett has the power and could put her on the block. She asked Scottie if she can use his room to talk to Brett privately. Scottie said yes. Sam told Brett not to smooth talk her or try to BS her. She asked what his plan is moving forward. Brett said he doesn’t really have a plan aside from trying to get Scottie to use the veto. Sam asked why Kaitlyn is campaigning for Brett to Scottie but campaigning against Brett to everyone else. Brett said he has no idea. Sam then questioned Brett about whether he or Kaitlyn have the power. Brett said he doesn’t have it and neither does Kaitlyn to his knowledge. Sam asked repeatedly if Brett would mercy kill her, thinking that she doesn’t want to be there. Brett reassured Sam that he would not do that. Sam suggested that they could work together moving forward. Brett agreed. Around the house, Scottie and Tyler discussed that Kaitlyn is scrambling even though she has no reason to be. Tyler asked Kaitlyn why she is freaking out. Kaitlyn said it’s because of what JC said to Brett. Tyler said Kaitlyn is not going to go home. Sam spoke to Haleigh and Rockstar to explain that she thought she was going to get backdoored. Faysal and Kaitlyn joined them as well. Sam said she started feeling that Brett might have the power and use it to take her out after their conversation last night in which she said she would trade places with him if she could. Sam said she started thinking that after being in the diary room. Outside, Brett and Tyler discussed that they don’t know what’s going on. Tyler let Brett know that Kaitlyn wants to keep him now. They talked bout how she flips easily. Brett pointed out that Kaitlyn has told Tyler and JC that she wants Brett out. Tyler said she was leaning towards that but didn’t ever say it straight up that she wanted Brett out. Tyler said he needs Brett to stay.
8:00-9:00 PM: Rockstar told Scottie that Kaitlyn is saying he told her that she is going on the block if a power is used. Scottie said he told Kaitlyn that she only has something to worry about if a power is used. Rockstar called Kaitlyn dramatic. Downstairs, Kaitlyn told Brett, Tyler and Winston that Scottie said she is going up if a power is used. Scottie came downstairs to clarify that he didn’t tell Kaitlyn she would be going on the block. Kaitlyn said Faysal was right there when he said it. Scottie told her that Faysal agrees with him. Kaitlyn thinks that Scottie made it clear that she would be the replacement nominee. Kaitlyn told Scottie that she only used his words, which Scottie disagreed with. After Scottie left, Kaitlyn said he is going to put her up now. Tyler disagreed. In the HoH room, Scottie said people don’t like how blunt his delivery is. Tyler said people don’t get it when he is being honest. Scottie mentioned possibly telling Kaitlyn that Brett was making a pitch to have her go up as the replacement nominee, seeing as Kaitlyn trusts Brett so much. Scottie figured that it would be best to wait until Kaitlyn is in a better state of mind. Tyler said Kaitlyn more often than not will take things the wrong way.
9:00-10:00 PM: Scottie brought Bayleigh, Faysal, Haleigh and Rockstar up to the HoH room to clarify that he didn’t tell Kaitlyn she would be going on the block. Scottie also let them know about the pitch that Brett and Winston made last night, asking him to join them for a Final 3, and to put Kaitlyn up. Rockstar encouraged Scottie to tell Kaitlyn about the guys throwing her under the bus, because Kaitlyn still wants to keep Brett. Bayleigh said nominations will stay the same, they can evict Brett, and call it a day. Rockstar said that she too will be voting to evict Brett. Faysal said they may not get this opportunity again. Scottie decided to fill Kaitlyn in on what Brett and Winston had proposed. Bayleigh went downstairs to get Kaitlyn. She gave her a heads up about what she was about to be told. When Kaitlyn got to the HoH room, she said she already knows what Scottie is going to say since she just had a dream that Brett and Winston told him to put her up. Scottie went on to explain that they did that and they also offered him a Final 3 deal. Kaitlyn then got on board with evicting Brett. Kaitlyn wanted to call a house meeting. While Faysal tried to talk her out of it, Rockstar said she is there for it if Kaitlyn wants to make good TV. Kaitlyn headed to the kitchen to confront Brett and Winston. Kaitlyn asked if either of them want to let her know what’s up. She said she doesn’t understand what she did to deserve any of this. She later explained that she knows about them throwing her name out. Scottie confirmed that he told her what they had pitched to him. Kaitlyn let Brett know that everyone knows she is trying to keep him safe, but Brett said that’s not what people are telling him. Brett and Winston didn’t have much to say while Kaitlyn confronted them. Afterwards, Kaitlyn headed outside. Tyler told her that she needs to reel it in. Faysal told her that she shouldn’t have done that. Kaitlyn said it’s telling that none of her friends came outside to follow her. She threatened to go to the diary room to quit. JC joined them to explain that the guys are just trying to get into Kaitlyn’s head. He pointed out that the veto is not going to be used and therefore it should be a smooth week. Kaitlyn said it wont be a smooth week when she hears all of these things, cause she is going to stick up for herself.
10:00-11:00 PM: Kaitlyn cried out in the yard. She said she feels stupid for nominating Swaggy. Kaitlyn continued to be frustrated that certain people had not come to check on her. She talked about how Brett was her friend yet he did this to her, so she is not doing something right. Kaitlyn said she needs both of the bros to leave before jury now, so she wants to win the next HoH to take the remaining one out herself. Later, Kaitlyn spoke to Brett. She explained to him that she was the only one campaigning for him to stay, even going so far as to say that she would not vote with the house if they were not keeping him. Kaitlyn said she really thought that Brett was her friend. Brett assured Kaitlyn that they are friends and that every conversation they have had has been genuine. Kaitlyn told Brett she is disappointed that he didn’t come to her when he thought that she was campaigning against him. Brett said it was about numbers, and the entire house was telling him that she was doing that. Kaitlyn brought up having a dream that Brett and Winston went to Scottie to tell him to nominate her. She asked if he thinks that she likes being this intuitive to know when something is off, cause she is always right. Kaitlyn asked where this leaves them if Brett stays. Brett said that is up to her after she went and made a big public display. Brett added that he has tried to work with Kaitlyn the entire time, yet she stuck to the other side. Kaitlyn asked if her getting Swaggy out was sticking to the other side. Brett said she went right back to the side that Scottie is on, then he ended up on the block. Kaitlyn asked if he is saying that she is behind that. Brett said he doesn’t know what to think.
11:00-12:00 AM: JC spoke to Brett. They discussed that they can make it far together. JC said Brett showed him that he can trust him since he didn’t drop his name. He admitted that he was leaning towards evicting Brett before all of this happened. JC told Brett that he will have the votes of everyone on their side, which is all that he would need to stay. Afterwards, Brett got Angela, Rachel and Winston caught up on his conversation with Kaitlyn. He brought up that she cried throughout it. Winston suggested that Brett mention in his veto speech that Kaitlyn was the seventh vote to evict Steve. Brett told the group that Kaitlyn claimed to have had a dream in which they stabbed her in the back. Winston said all she did was go upstairs and get told by Scottie. Later, Winston asked JC about the votes. JC said it seems pretty divided at the moment and he doesn’t know what he is going to do. JC then spoke to Tyler. He said Kaitlyn is crazy and needs to go before Rockstar at this point. Tyler said Brett now has to stay. JC said he is so happy to be Tyler’s friend since he was about to tell him the same thing.
