With the whole house against him, Paulie found himself heading home in Big Brother 18 Episode 27. There was technically a Friday episode as well, but nothing really happened.
Before he left, Paulie stirred the pot and told Nicole, Corey, and Paul they need to go after Victor and James. Pretty much. Of course, in this house, this doesn’t stay secret for more than a few minutes before Nicole warns James.
The HOH competition puts them all in a black box where they will hold a button until a voice tells them they can search for discs. Some of the discs are decoys that won’t fit, and they can’t see anything. This just seems like dumb luck.
Michelle lets go in just over 20 minutes and is the first eliminated. Natalie keeps saying the entire time she can’t do this any longer, but everybody else survives the full two hours. At least until James slips and is eliminated right before the final buzzer.
Corey and Natalie end up tied at ten discs each. The winner is the person who brought their disc back first. By 4 seconds, Natalie wins HOH.
Natalie could go either way. Last week people were talking about how she joined forces with Paul and Victor, but really she just didn’t like Paulie.
America’s Care Package is won by Michelle for some reason. Her power is co-HOH, which makes her safe for the week and able to name one of the two nominees.
That could present a problem for Nicole and Corey, who thought they just got done talking Natalie and James into a showmance alliance.
Michelle would like to get rid of Nicole, contrary to Natalie’s concerns about what she calls the most dangerous duo. Like everybody before him, Paulie threw someone under the bus before he left, revealing to Michelle that Paul knew Da’Vonne was going home when he was HOH.

Victor
Paul
Natalie gets what she wants after all. Then Michelle lets Paul know who is really the target, telling Victor she will pull him off the block if she can and calling Paul a liar.
