Big Brother Canada 7 Day 37
April 7, 2019
10:00-11:00 AM: Cory let Adam know that she wouldn’t be surprised if she ends up making her final decision while sitting on the couch during the veto ceremony. Adam said she can either put a pawn to ensure that Este goes home, or she can put someone up who she wants to go home but might not go home, and then they might be mad at her. Cory acknowledged that she needs to be looking ahead to next week as well as focusing on this week. Cory mentioned that Adam has not shown and disloyalty towards her, so she asked “why would I break a good thing?”. They agreed that there aren’t many options to choose from, but Cory said she would like to talk to a few people today. Adam said the two of them don’t need to talk any game since he feels pretty comfortable about what they have talked about. Cory said she needs to fill in some of the gaps, then she will decide who is most threatening to her game.
11:00-12:00 PM: Kyra headed to the HoH room to talk to Cory. When Kyra asked about the replacement nominee, Cory said that she doesn’t know. Kyra listed off Adam, Sam, Mark, Damien and themselves as the options. Kyra pointed out that Cory didn’t end up getting put up last week. Cory argued that it doesn’t matter, but Kyra said that it shows someone wasn’t gunning for her. Cory feels that it’s dangerous enough that someone thought about putting her up since they could easily go back to that. Kyra said it sounds like Cory is thinking about the past rather than the future. Cory said the past is a big part of figuring out what she wants to do in the future. Cory explained that she has some gaps to fill in the information that she has, and then she will nominate the person who is a threat to her game. Kyra asked if Cory wants to ask them anything. Cory said no. Kyra said they and Sam have reason to be worried that Dane took himself down, since Dane will suspect that the two of them gave Cory the information about him. Kyra said they hope Cory sees that Sam would not come after her and that she shut down any talk of that. Afterwards, Cory filled Anthony in on her talks with Adam and Kyra. Cory believes that Adam not bringing up Sam’s name is a sign that he knows what she is about to do and he realizes that she has valid reasons for doing it. Later, Anthony and Kyra spoke. Kyra thinks that Cory is unwilling to hear her out. Kyra believes that Cory is too focused on finding out answers about the backdoor plan when she is not going to get them. Anthony suggested that part of the reason Cory isn’t listening to Kyra is that they seem to be attempting to point fingers away from Sam. Kyra insisted that Sam is not going after Anthony and Cory. Anthony said Kyra and Sam have had an agreement since Day 1, and that is Kyra’s ride or die. Kyra said Anthony and Sam her her #1 allies but she doesn’t trust Sam’s gameplay as much as she trusts Anthony’s. Anthony asked if his name came up last week. Kyra said it did at the beginning. Anthony told them that means that it was one of the first things to come to Sam’s mind. He said the only reason he didn’t go up is that Sam knew she couldn’t get the votes. Kyra said it’s because they convinced Sam that Anthony would be good to work with.
12:00-1:00 PM: Anthony and Kyra continued to talk. Kyra eventually said that if Sam said his name to multiple people, she didn’t listen to what they had to say. Kyra said that is detrimental to her game. Anthony suggested that Kyra call a truce with Dane. Kyra headed outside to talk to Dane. They admitted to being bitter about Dane nominating them. Kyra said they hope that they can make a truce since they are willing to let go of past bitterness if Dane is. Dane said he is willing to do the same. Kyra told Dane that they will not put him up if they win the next HoH. Dane said he would return the favour the following week. Once Kyra left, Dane spoke to the cameras and questioned how long Kyra is going to keep lying to him for. Dane said he is not stupid. Dane then talked to Este, telling her about the conversation with Kyra. He also told Este that she will have his vote and Damien’s vote, plus Cory is not targeting her. On top of that, Este said that she feels good with Anthony.
1:00-2:00 PM: Mark asked Anthony how he is feeling about everything. Anthony said Sam is going home. Anthony told Mark not to hint anything to Este, because they are going to get Este out next week. Anthony told Mark that Cory will keep him close if he makes it seem like he wants to work with him. Anthony added that they could then bring Cory to the end if she feels good with the two of them, Adam and Dane, because she will then be down to take out the rest of the houseguests. Anthony said Cory is not scared of going to the end with guys since she thinks that she can beat them all anyway.
4:00-5:00 PM: Kyra got emotional and was crying in the living room. Sam told Kyra she doesn’t think that they will be going up. Kyra said they don’t want Adam or Sam to go up either though. Kyra mentioned that Adam should have held on during the HoH competition. Sam agreed but said if it’s her time, it’s her time. Kyra said that Sam cannot go down without a fight if she goes up. Sam said she will fight. Kyra suggested that Sam throw Este under the bus, making it seem like she was the ringleader and trying to convince everyone of a guys alliance during Sam’s HoH reign.
5:00-6:00 PM: Sam told Adam she thinks that Kyra believes she will be going on the block. Sam said it’s fine if she goes up and she will not throw Adam or Kyra under the bus no matter what happens. Adam reassured Sam that she will not be going up. Adam said he will talk to Cory tonight, then everything will be fine and make perfect sense.
6:00-7:00 PM: Adam looked to get a read on what Cory is thinking. Cory said she doesn’t know yet and she probably isn’t going to tell anybody. Cory added that if there is no reason for her to be targeting him or Sam, then they will be fine. Adam explained their thought process both during the double eviction and during Sam’s HoH week. He said it would have been the stupidest game move to go after Cory, seeing as Este and Kiki would still be after them and it would have made Anthony mad at them as well. Adam pointed out that they could have backdoored Cory had they wanted to, as Sam was HoH and he won the veto. Sam said it’s not something that ever would have happened. Both said they would not go after Anthony or Cory next week either.
7:00-7:30 PM: Cory asked Sam if she has ever sat down with Este to say that there is a backdoor plan to get Cory out. Sam said never. Adam asked if they should get Este up there. Cory said no. Adam reiterated that they had the chance to backdoor Cory had they wanted to. Cory said Kyra came to her with the same argument, but the fact that it was even considered makes her uneasy. Adam brought up that he would have felt on during the HoH competition had he known that Cory was feeling this way. Cory said she agreed to keep Adam and Sam safe but she started hearing some things and realized that there are gaps in stories. Cory said she is not going to sit there and BS them by saying they are not up for consideration. Cory clarified that the conversations that are compromising are more so about Sam than Adam. Cory and Sam then agreed to chat on their own. Sam stressed that Dane was the one behind the plan to backdoor Cory. She said there is no way that she will sit there and take the heat for it when it was not her idea. Sam told Cory that she is going to make a big mistake if she puts her up. She insisted that the information Cory is getting is being manipulated by Dane. Sam explained that she put her finger up and stopped Dane when he was pitching that Cory should be backdoored. Meanwhile, Adam confronted Anthony. He told Anthony that they tried all week to build trust with him and with Cory, yet this is all getting pinned back on Sam. Adam said it will be BS if Sam gets backdoored tomorrow. Anthony said it wasn’t just Cory, and that a lot of people have been talking. Kyra spoke up to say they both know that Sam was not pushing for Cory to be backdoored. Adam let Kyra know that Este is the one saying that Sam was behind the plan. Back upstairs, Sam promised Cory that she is not going after her. Cory said it is going to come down to whether she believes Sam or she believes Dane. Kyra entered the HoH room to say they are genuinely confused why this is being pinned on Sam when Sam had her back last week. Kyra added that they attempted to build trust last week by sharing the information that they did.
7:30-8:00 PM: Once Kyra left the HoH room, Cory said she almost asked Kyra to leave the room and then come back in appropriately. Kyra went to speak to Adam. She said Cory was staring her down and testing her as they looked into her eyes the entire time. Kyra said they are shocked that Cory is even considering nominating Sam. They agreed that Sam is likely going to go home if she is nominated. Adam said he shouldn’t have dropped during the HoH competition. Kyra later suggested that it may be best to put the target on themselves if they can guarantee that they would have the votes to stay over Este. Kyra doesn’t think that Adam, Sam or Anthony would vote them out. Adam said he would have a better chance at staying too, but he doesn’t think that they will put him up. Elsewhere, Anthony filled Cory in on what happened with Adam. Cory then told Anthony that Adam and Sam were grilling her and trying to intimidate her. As for Kyra, Cory said it took everything in her not to lose it on them when they came in hot and were coming at her. Cory said her gut has already told her to go with Dane over Sam.
8:00-9:00 PM: Feeds went down for the episode.
9:00-10:00 PM: The Pretty Boys chatted out in the yard. Adam asked what they think Cory is going to do. Both Anthony and Dane said that Cory is not telling them anything. Mark said he hasn’t talked to her yet. Anthony reassured Adam that he is safe this week. Adam brought up that it’s crazy to think he was wanting a guys alliance like this two months before he even got into the house. Dane said he wanted the same thing with four people. Anthony mentioned that he has put it into Cory’s head that Damien and Este are really close.
10:00-11:00 PM: Out by the hot tub, Kyra and Sam discussed that Dane keeps talking to Cory, which should show her that he is trying to set someone up. Sam believes that keeping her would be the smartest move for Cory. Kyra agreed. Sam thinks that Cory has her mind made up at this point. Kyra said they think that there has legitimately been a guys alliance this whole time. Sam agreed. Kyra headed to the HoH room. They told Cory that Este shifts depending on what she needs from someone, and she is surprised that Cory would believe it. Cory clarified that she didn’t say she believed it, and she only asked Sam if it was true. Kyra went on to talk about Dane playing every side. They said they are baffled that Cory would consider going after Sam when Sam would be loyal to her. As for Dane, Kyra said he is going to gun after Anthony and Cory if they allow him to stay in the game along with his numbers. Once the talk wrapped up, Kyra told Adam and Sam that they got Cory thinking and they felt powerful.
11:00-12:00 AM: Sam spoke to Anthony and Cory. She reiterated that the plan to backdoor Cory came from Dane. She said it speaks volumes that Dane quickly comes to Cory after anyone talks to her, since he has to do damage control. Sam said Dane is so good that he could convince her that she is a banana. Cory pointed out that Sam has been saying she has seen through him since week two. Sam said Adam is manipulated by Dane. Cory said she will sit and listen to Dane but know that they are smart people. Once Sam left, Anthony and Cory discussed that her pitch was insane. Anthony called her a really good Big Brother player. Cory observed that she and Kyra hit all of the same points. Cory said that your average player probably would have fallen for what Sam pitched, so she commends her.
