Big Brother 12 - S12 Ep.9&10 - The Set-up and The Fireworks!

Hello everyone, THIS is Big Brother 12 – The Double Edition


In this edition, I’m going to cover the last 2 episodes, which were EXPLOSIVE! This week featured maybe one of the best all-time LIVE eviction episodes EVER! Let’s get started, shall we?

WEDNESDAY – The Set Up

Big Brother replayed the nomination ceremony where Andrew and Kathy were put up and both a little confused by it. Considering the entire house wants Rachel and Brendon out, Matt decided to play the game for himself and put up “the two floaters”. Andrew is the most upset by this and decides he needs to shake up the game for him to have a chance at survival. That is pretty odd considering Matt flat-out told Andrew he was going up as a pawn and Kathy was his target. Andrew starts talking to himself, saying “stupid, stupid, stupid” and the game is on.

The brigade was completely floored by the nominations but convinced Matt that whoever wins PoV besides Brendon and Rachel, will use it and backdoor Brendon to go home. At the PoV selection, the brigade is floored at how the twists of fate put BOTH Brendon and Rachel in the competition. I wonder if they ever check that little bag to make sure all the HG’s are in there or if they overload it with the people that would make the best TV? Andrew’s paranoia starts getting to him even more as he starts complaining about how messy everyone is and he goes around all day and cleans it all up. Andrew confronts Matt in the storage room nervous things are not going to plan.

The PoV challenge is on, and Enzo's hosting, dressed as a genie. The HGs see a BY with various stations, with various items, like a punchbowl filled with fortune cookies. Each player can ask The Amazing Enzo one question about each item, then the player writes down a guess, after they show their guesses, they have a choice of whether to "Stay" or "Fold." In the first round, the fortune cookies, Matt won, but it caused Lane to lose, and get knocked out. In the next round, guessing the number of candles on the alter, Andrew wins, now Matt's out of the game. The next challenge was to guess the length of a spiral line. Kathy is eliminated next, Brendon and Andrew are tied with one point each. Andrew wins the next round, now he has two points. Next, Brendon wins a point tying the game again. In the next round, Enzo says, "Since all yous decided to 'Stay.'" this round will determine the winner, "Things are getting tense now." Brendon wins the point, and the PoV.

Andrew being more nervous now that Brendon has won, decides to devise a scheme that he will openly say he’s going after Brendon and Rachel. Hopefully, that will earn the rest of the houses trust and he will be safe. At the PoV Ceremony, Brendon gives both Kathy and Andrew a chance to plead their case. Kathy says she doesn’t expect or want Brendon to use the PoV on her while Andrew took the complete opposite approach, almost demanding that Brendon uses the PoV on him. He states to the house, “This worked for Matt, so I’m going to try it. Brendon and Rachel, I’m coming after you.”, Brendon does NOT use the PoV and we have our official nominees for eviction.

THURSDAY NIGHT – The Fireworks!

Big Brother gives up a quick peek back to the PoV meeting where Andrew demands for Brendon to use it on him. However, Brendon does NOT use the PoV and game on. Some HG’s were confused at Andrew’s speech while Matt says that everyone knows it was BS.(not everyone!) Rachel goes to her room to think about stuff and Brendon comes in and asks if she is ok. Rachel tells him that she’s upset with what Andrew just said and she doesn’t understand why Brendon trusts him. Brendon decides he has to let Rachel in on the plan and tells her he knew what he was going to say. She says she doesn’t believe Brendon and starts feeling betrayed that he didn’t let her know as well. Matt informs Andrew that people didn’t buy his speech and the house is shifting against him.

A little later, we see Brendon and Rachel outside talking about Andrew’s allegiance. Brendon says he knows what’s going on and it will be OK and he said it, those 3 little magical words. Brendon breaks out “I Love You” and goes in for a kiss but Rachel backs away from it and WOW MOMENT #1, Brendon starts to wonder about his relationship with Rachel. (Worst TV Break-Up EVER – Coming Soon!) Next, we see Andrew breaking down completely and crying a little bit about he has no one in the house.

He decides enough is enough and goes right after Kristen saying he knows she’s “playing him like a fiddle”. Kristen doesn’t take this very well and goes into the bedroom to confront him. WOW MOMENT #2 – Andrew and Kristen go into full-on battle mode, both yelling at each other, saying how each is digging it’s own grave. The rest of the house is completely shocked at what just happened and have all turned against Andrew at this point.

Back to the living room, Julie asks her pointless questions to the house and Lane had no clue what she was saying because his answer didn’t make sense, whatsoever. We also see Matt’s wife(she’s not what I expected and not in a good way), talking about Matt’s lie about her having a disease. She didn’t like it very much(she probably got hammered from all her relatives about it) but understood why he did it and even helped him by including that into her letter. Julie asks Rachel if she’s surprised that she’s not on the block, she says yes and everyone laughs. The only funny part of this was Julie trying to make Enzo say words properly. She did get him to say something about slop and informed the house that no one would be on slop this coming week. REJOICE!

WOW MOMENT #3 - It’s time for the votes to be cast but first, each nominee will get the chance to plead their case. Kathy goes first and she says she is happy to know everyone and happy for her time in the house(boring). Andrew goes next and he flips out! Andrew throws everyone under the bus. He tells everyone that Kristen and Hayden are a couple and he goes on to repeat Kristen's opinions of the others, and that Ragan's being played, and that Kristen doubts Enzo's intelligence. He says that Hayden and Kristen are the real power couple that must be split up, and if they keep him in the house, he'll help them do it. Needless to say, everyone was shocked and confused but ultimately unified that Andrew needed to go so by an 8-0 vote, Andrew was evicted from the Big Brother House.

WOW MOMENT #4 – The Power is back up for grabs, in this competition called “Knock-Out”, two HG’s will go up against each other to answer a question. Get it right, you are safe, your opponent is knocked out and you get to choose the next two to compete. Hayden vs Britney started it off with Hayden winning. He chose Rachel vs Brendon. Rachel won Round 2 and she selected Hayden vs Kristen(YES! They HEARD what Andrew said). Kristen won and it went until the final two was Lane vs Rachel. Congratulations to our new HoH and ANOTHER shocking twist, the winner is ... RACHEL!!!

As BB returns from commercial, Julie informs America that they must choose who will receive an offer to become the new Saboteur. If they accept, they have 2 weeks to complete tasks without getting caught and will win $20,000. If the first person doesn’t accept, they will ask the next person in line to accept the offer.(Why would anyone turn that down?) WOW MOMENT #5 - Back to the back yard, Rachel and Kristen are going after each other, on LIVE TV! Kristen is trying to deflect what Andrew said, basically saying he was lying while Rachel kept attacking her. Kristen also said she already knows she is putting up her and Hayden and Rachel thanks her for making her decision. GAME ON!

Until Next Time,
