After a day of constant insanity, the Big Brother 20 houseguests kept it chill on Friday. Head of Household Sam Bledsoe has began her reign with success by keeping the peace in the Big Brother 2018 house. This was a hard task considering that emotions remained very high after all the Thursday blowups.
Sam added fuel to the fire by nominating Haleigh Broucher and Kaitlyn Herman, and giving a speech about them hanging on the men too much. This sent Haleigh and Kaitlyn into a state of confusion.
Prior to nominations, Sam helped Angie “Rockstar” Lantry off the ledge by further listening to her rants about Brett Robinson being a liar, bully, and privileged. Angie also questioned Kaitlyn for continuing to speak to Brett even after all the drama he caused last night. Then later in the evening, Angie questioned Sam for not nominating Brett for eviction, despite Sam’s claims that she doesn’t like bullies.
When alone with Rachel Swindler, Sam really unleashed about her reasons for nominating Haleigh and Kaitlyn. She admitted to making her nominations personal. Sam feels like Haleigh and Kaitlyn are overly flirting with the men in the house. She’s worried that Haleigh’s leading Scottie Salton on, and it’ll just scar him later down the line.
Sam also thinks that Kaitlyn and Haleigh dress inappropriately and don’t wear enough clothing. Finally, Sam thinks they’re rude to her and don’t clean enough. Later, Sam told Tyler Crispen her more strategic reasoning for nominating Haleigh and Kaitlyn.
Sam views them as the weakest competitors of the women. So she thinks that they might lose the competition to return this week. Sam also plans to tell Haleigh and Kaitlyn, if they stay on the block at the end of week, that they’ll have a chance to return to the game because she decided not to play her power.
She believes that telling them this will make them feel more grateful and not target her upon their return. Sam also said that Haleigh and Kaitlyn are interchangeable, so she doesn’t care which one of them gets evicted. Sam really doesn’t want anyone to use the Veto if they win it tonight, but she said that the Veto holder can do what he or she wants with it.
Sam won’t tell them what to do or influence their votes. She also told Rachel in the earlier discussion that Rockstar would be the replacement nominee if Kaitlyn or Hayleigh come off the block. She said Rockstar made herself a target last night with her antics. Both Rachel and Tyler tried to subtly get Faysal Shafaat on the block as a replacement nominee.
However, Sam believes that she can pull him over to their side. She thinks that she has a good relationship with him, and can easily influence Faysal.
The Faysal, Haleigh, and Kaitlyn tension continued, but even more now with the possibility of him playing in Veto. Both women want him to use it on them, so it’s in his best interest to not win it. However, we’ll have to see later today if Faysal gets the luck of the draw and must play in Veto.
