Big Brother 20 Day 62 - Brett uses the PoV on himself; Kaycee is nominated
August 20, 2018
11:00-12:00 PM: Feeds returned at 11:44 following the veto ceremony. Brett used the Power of Veto on himself. Faysal nominated Kaycee as the replacement nominee. Scottie commented that he tried. He attempted to get Sam on the block last night, then he threw her name out there during his speech as well. Scottie asked Kaycee if Faysal told her last night that she would be going on the block. Kaycee said no. Kaycee then asked Haleigh to relay that information to Faysal. Haleigh headed upstairs to let Faysal know the story that Kaycee is going with. Haleigh said she thought for a second that he was about to nominate Sam. Faysal said Sam is going to be the #1 target next week. Haleigh disagreed. She said the way that this game has been going, Sam is probably going to end up winning HoH.
12:00-1:00 PM: Angela and Brett talked about how Scottie threw out the names of his only two possible votes. Tyler said he called it that Sam was going to react by saying that she is not going to play anymore, which is what she did after Scottie called her out. Tyler said he thinks that the vote will end up being unanimous, but Scottie isn’t going to just sit back and take it. Brett and Tyler said they will let Scottie think that he has their votes. In the kitchen, Faysal told JC that people would be stupid to keep Scottie in the game. He doesn’t think that four people would do it. They discussed that the only way to even get it to a tie would be for Haleigh to keep Scottie. Faysal said he doesn’t see Haleigh going against him when she would no longer have him in the game if she were to do that. Off camera, Sam questioned Scottie about his speech. Afterwards, she said she is confused and doesn’t know what is going on. She thanked Faysal for keeping the pinky promise that he made with her. She apologized for pressuring him to do something that he didn’t want to do. JC asked Sam what she did to Scottie for him to want her on the block. Sam said she doesn’t know. JC then told Sam that she needs to stop playing with the feelings of the guys in the house. He said you can’t tell them that you are marrying them and then not marry them. Sam said that’s the exact opposite of what she is doing. JC said he thought that Sam had told Scottie that she loved him, took it back, and then he wanted her out for breaking his heart. Sam said that is the most farfetched thing that she has ever heard. Sam asked if JC was just joking. He confirmed that he was. Sam decided that starting at 1:30 she is not going speak. She said she is going to keep it that way until noon tomorrow. Sam said she is going on strike and protesting. When JC asked what she is trying to achieve, Sam said there is no reason behind it. Afterwards, JC told Brett and Faysal about Sam saying that she is not going to speak. He said he wants to ask her “did you take your meds, sweetie?”. Both Brett and Faysal told JC that you cannot say that. Meanwhile, Sam let Angela and Haleigh know about her plan to stop talking.
1:00-2:00 PM: Out at the pool, Haleigh commented that they have a mute now. Angela asked Brett if he had heard about that. Brett confirmed that he did. Angela said she bets that Sam is on Team America. Haleigh said they probably told Sam that she is in a really bad spot so she should just stop talking for an entire day. Angela and Haleigh continued to discuss all of the weird things that Sam has done while in the house, suggesting that it could have been for Team America. Haleigh pointed out that she made an apple, which was the code word for Team America during BB16. Sam stopped talking by 1:30. JC said he is going to make her talk by the end of the day. He asked her numerous questions. Sam didn’t respond other by shaking her head.
2:00-3:00 PM: Haleigh said she hopes that Kaycee is okay. Angela said she is good, and she let her know that she should feel 10 times safer than she did while on the block last week. Angela wondered if Scottie would “take an L” or go about scheming. Haleigh said he has shot himself in the foot, so she doesn’t know how he would come back from that at this point. Haleigh said they need to prepare for Thursday because she is almost willing to bet that it’s going to be a double eviction. Angela agreed. Haleigh said it should be a smooth next few weeks if they stick to the plan. Angela said it should be amazing. In the storage room, Tyler told Brett that they should get together to make a plan in case there is a double eviction on Thursday. Other than that, he said they don’t have anything to do.
4:00-5:00 PM: Haleigh and Scottie chatted a bit, though the majority of the conversation was not about game. Scottie did tell Haleigh that he has his strategy figured out. Haleigh asked what it is. Scottie said he is going to pray for a Battle Back and then win it. Meanwhile, out in the yard, Sam accidentally spoke in order to respond to someone. It ended over three hours of silence from her. Sam said she will try it again next week. Kaycee suggested that everyone in the house should do it together, then the first one to talk loses.
6:00-7:00 PM: Angela told Kaycee that she wants Brett to win HoH in order to go after Faysal. She thinks that it would be easier for Brett to target Faysal than it would be for one of them to do it, and she wants him to be the next to go. Angela said she has an idea of what she would do if she wins HoH, as she would nominate Haleigh and Sam, telling Haleigh that she is the pawn since everyone is on board to get Sam out. Angela thinks that Brett should nominate Faysal and Haleigh if he wins HoH. Kaycee thinks that things are looking good for them. Angela agreed as long as Sam doesn’t win HoH. Angela said Haleigh is really trying to latch on to her. She is concerned that Sam will think that Haleigh is now on their side.
7:00-8:00 PM: Scottie told Tyler that Faysal’s move does not make any sense. He said Faysal has either been the flip vote all along, or he is stupid. Tyler said it hasn’t even crossed his mind that Faysal could be the flip vote. Scottie pointed out that he always gets blamed for it, so getting rid of him would give Faysal a clean slate. Tyler said he is worried that Scottie has shot himself in the foot with Haleigh and Sam. He asked what Scottie’s approach for the week is going to be. Scottie said he is done. Tyler questioned if Scottie is really someone who would quit. Scottie said the only way he thinks that he could possibly stay is if he makes himself such a big target that people want to keep him. Scottie thinks the only votes that he could get are from Angela, Haleigh and Tyler, and then Faysal would just break the tie against him anyway, so he wont be able to get the numbers unless someone wants Faysal out so badly that they keep him around to target him. Scottie then told Angela his theory that Faysal has been the flip vote every time. If that’s not the case, Scottie said Faysal is just stupid.
8:00-9:00 PM: Angela told Brett that Haleigh is latching on to her and she thinks that everything is totally cool between them. Brett thinks that no matter who he nominates if he wins HoH, there is going to be some butting heads at this point. He said there will only be one person left for him to nominate who has nominated him, because Scottie will be leaving this week. Brett advised Angela to be more mindful of her goodbye messages. He said he previously didn’t care because he was not getting those votes anyway, but he didn’t think about the possibility of their being a Battle Back. Brett mentioned that there is no way that Rockstar doesn’t know that he didn’t vote to keep her. Elsewhere, JC and Tyler discussed that the vote is likely to be unanimous this week. The discussion shifted to showmances. Tyler said he doesn’t know much about the game but he knew that he was not going to get in to one. JC told Tyler that he will destroy his game if he gets in to a showmance. Tyler reiterated that he has no plans to. JC added that he will win HoHs with the purpose of putting Tyler and his girlfriend on the block. JC followed it up by saying that he is joking, but Tyler said to not even act like he is joking about that.
9:00-10:00 PM: Faysal asked Haleigh if this week is going to be smooth, or if he has to worry about her. Haleigh said she isn’t sure if he is trying to fight with her, but she will be legitimately pissed if he asks her that again. Faysal said he takes it that he doesn’t have to be worried. Haleigh asked if he is kidding. Haleigh said that’s stupid if he is questioning her. Haleigh said she is not going to have this conversation with Faysal. Faysal said he is not questioning her. Faysal pointed out that Scottie is Haleigh’s friend, so she feels bad for him. He explained that he doesn’t know how she is going to handle it when Scottie asks her about her vote. Haleigh said to let her worry about that and have enough trust in her to not continue to question her.
10:00-11:00 PM: Haleigh told Angela and Kaycee that she feels bad because nobody is talking to Scottie. Kaycee said she talked to him a bit. Angela said she tried to as well. Kaycee said she really does care about Scottie. Haleigh said she is genuinely Scottie’s good friend. The girls discussed that they for sure have three votes to evict Scottie, those being Angela’s, Haleigh’s and Tyler’s. Kaycee said Sam just told her that she will be voting to keep her. Haleigh thinks that Brett and JC will jump on board as well. Haleigh mentioned that she thinks Scottie is mad at Faysal because he genuinely believed that he was going to nominate Sam today.
11:00-12:00 AM: JC and Tyler discussed that the power apps didn’t end up having any impact on the game. JC asked Tyler if his expired yet. Tyler denied having one. He said he thinks that Kaitlyn had it. Tyler mentioned that he was already on the block, so he would have used it if he had one. JC said it was probably just expired. Tyler told JC he wouldn’t be mad if JC had the app all along and didn’t tell him. JC insisted that he doesn’t have it even though he really thought that America was going to give him one.
1:00-2:00 AM: Sam asked Scottie what is going on. Scottie said he thinks that Faysal is messing with him. Sam questioned why Scottie said what she said today about her. Scottie said he needs to talk to Haleigh, because Faysal was not happy with Sam pitching that he wanted Haleigh on the block. Sam pointed out that she did what she said she was going to, which Scottie was on board with, then he said to put her up instead. Scottie said that’s because Faysal told him that he wasn’t going to nominate Haleigh, and Sam is a target that they have had in the past. Sam asked why he would say that she is playing everybody when she has done the opposite of that. Scottie said he was told that Sam told Kaitlyn that she or whoever voted Steve out could be put on the block. Sam said that’s a lie. Scottie said he was lied to then. Scottie explained that it all starts with week one, cause Faysal made a promise to him to use the veto on Steve, and he has had to prove himself to “The Hive” ever since. Sam wondered why Scottie didn’t just talk to her. Scottie said people always keep coming back at him, and he gets blamed for stuff. Sam said she would have been honest, just like she will be honest with Haleigh if Haleigh talks to her about what she said. Scottie said he is clearly the one that Faysal wants gone, even though he thought that he was Faysal’s friend. Scottie let Sam know that Faysal is the one who said Sam should go up in order for him to stay. Scottie added that Kaycee was one of the names that came up as someone he would have no shot against, so Faysal clearly wants him out. Sam asked if Scottie made the speech under the assumption that she was going on the block. Scottie confirmed that to be the case. He said he was supposed to prove his loyalty to Faysal by making that speech. Scottie said he might blow up if he doesn’t like the answer he gets from Haleigh when he questions what Faysal told her that their one on one was about. Scottie said it’s a very ugly side of him that he does not want people to see. Sam advised Scottie not to do anything detrimental to his future for the sake of something like this. Sam reassured Scottie that he can’t do or say anything to make her feel differently about him. She said tomorrow is a brand new day and she is going to pretend like none of this happened.
