We rushed through two evictions in Big Brother 18 Episode 24 with Zakiyah and Bridgette both being voted out of the house.
Natalie, who was one of the key components of the plan to get rid of Zakiyah, tried to spin it around and make it seem like it was Paulie’s fault. Considering Zakiyah’s goodbye speech and her reaction after their talk, I’m not sure it worked. When word gets back to Paulie that she was talking about him flirting with her (which they both admit to doing with everyone in the house), he makes it clear that the battle lines have been drawn. And much awkward drama ensues when Paulie gets aggressive with the insults.
Meanwhile, both members of PP go in their own directions and find a new best friend, although it doesn’t seem they were ever really as close as the whole twinsies thing would have led us to believe. They’re kind of playing nice, but not really.
The HOH competition requires them to answer questions based on pictures they are shown. James eliminates Michelle, and this is the competition where they can pick who goes next. Paul beats Nicole in a round that lets Nicole know she shouldn’t trust James. Paul wants to pick Paulie, but he doesn’t want to make it obvious like James did. Victor beats Natalie. Paul beats Paulie. Victor wins again and eliminates James. Then Victor wins again and wins HOH.
Ironically, Victor just got done saying that he’s the guy somewhere in the middle and can keep floating. Now he’ll have to pick a side. At this point, that side seems pretty obvious because Paul has been really pushing against Paulie for about three whole days.
The third care package from America might actually matter. Nicole is the winner, and she gets safety for the week. She wasn’t going to be the target, but that blows up the plan to make her the replacement nominee. Along with safety comes a super safety costume.
