It was a turbulent weekend in the Big Brother house with former winner Rachel Reilly in control.
Rachel is determined to give viewers — and her fellow houseguests — a taste of what it was like to play the game over a decade ago.
Instead of telling the house her plans, she’s been keeping them close to her chest, even from Ashley, Ava, and Keanu.
On Friday, she nominated Mickey, Morgan, and Vince for eviction in one of the most significant moves of the season.
All three pose a significant threat to Rachel’s game, so it was the best move for her.
In the aftermath, Mickey and Morgan have tried to tell Rachel that they were never targeting her.
On Sunday’s episode, Mickey went as far as turning on the water works to try to manipulate Rachel into thinking that she wasn’t gunning for her.
Rachel Sets Up Wild Week Ahead on Big Brother
It’s been pretty wild, but with the Veto still in play, there was a chance that one of Rachel’s nominees could escape from the block.
Thankfully for Rachel, Lauren won the Power of Veto and made it known that she wasn’t using the medallion to take anyone off the block.
At least, that was on Saturday. On Sunday, the scheming intensified inside the house, with Lauren contemplating removing Vince from the block.
This development in itself isn’t too surprising. Lauren has been aligned with Vince for much of the game, but was initially hesitant to remove him from the block in case it upset Rachel.
Despite not being close in the game, Rachel and Lauren haven’t bickered, and Rachel even defended Lauren to Vince and Morgan on Sunday evening.
After she saw how rattled Lauren was about using the Veto, Rachel went into the storage room, caught Morgan and Vince conspiring, and called them “real classy” because she thought they were manipulating Lauren.
It was a wild moment on the Big Brother live feeds and one that didn’t do Rachel any favors as she advances into the next stage of the competition.
Rachel Could Be a Big Target
But get this: It seems that Ashley, Ava, and Will are more Team Rachel than ever.
The trio has slowly started to realize the level of manipulation Mickey has done to them earlier in the season, and are contemplating voting her out.
It seems Mickey is on the verge of eviction, as many viewers see her as a significant threat due to her influence in the game.
However, she could win the BB Blockbuster and remain in the game. But if she’s on the block when it comes down to the vote, she’s probably a goner.
Rachel hasn’t confirmed who she would put on the block if Lauren proceeds with removing Vince, but indicates that it would send shockwaves through the house.
It’s hard to imagine Ava, Ashley, Will, or Keanu being on her mind to go on the block, even as pawns.
Rachel thinks multiple steps ahead, so she would only put one of them up to prevent them from saving her target.
There is a possibility she could put Rylie and Katherine on the block, but I suspect she’d prefer to keep the showmance on her side.
Drama Went into Overdrive Ahead of the Meeting
Then again, this is Rachel, who is known for being a wildcard and taking big risks, so who knows?
In the moments leading up to the Veto meeting, Rylie urged Lauren to use the Veto to save Vince, and they both believed that Kelley would take his place on the block.
Katherine was against this idea because they had no idea who Rachel would put up.
When Lauren went to Rachel, she tried to urge Lauren to keep the nominations the same because it would force her to put another person up on the block.
Rachel also offered Lauren an alliance, saying they could work together in the future if she kept the nominations the same.
One thing Rachel did do was confirm that Keanu would not be hitting the block on her week.
When the live feeds returned on Monday afternoon, Lauren used the Power of Veto to remove Vunce from the block.
Rachel nominated Rylie in their place.
The week’s final nominations are Mickey, Morgan, and Rylie.
What are your thoughts on the final nominees and what it means for the rest of the week?
