The Big Brother house has a new Head of Household heading into finale week.
In the endurance challenge, the players were in some kind of weird dungeon-like room surrounded by candles. They had to hold onto a sword pressing it onto a shield representing the Mastermind’s face. That shield was on some sort of mount in the middle of the room. The players stood on small disks as well.
Ava was the first to drop at just a couple of minutes into the challenge.
She went back into the house and claimed to Morgan she had no chance as the competition was all about strength.
Keanu tried to break the silence by asking the others if they knew how long they had been standing there. Nobody answered.
Ashley began fidgeting and then dropped out at about half an hour in.
Keanu then began joking around with Vince standing on one leg.
“What matters is the veto this week anyways,” said Keanu.
Vince said he wanted to score some more comp wins.
“You could drop this to me and take the veto,” suggested Vince.
Keanu suggested that veto isn’t guaranteed.
Vince agreed.
They wondered if the houseguests could hear them inside as they watched on the TV in the front room. Keanu didn’t think the audio was on. He was right as there was no audio inside the house.
The guys joked about the producers putting on a movie for them to watch as they competed.
“I feel less pressure knowing it is just me and you,” said Keanu.
Keanu and Vince promised themselves safety and they aren’t going to renom each other.
They began reminiscing about their time in the house as they stood there.
“I wonder who this dude is?” Keanu said referring to the Mastermind.
“I don’t think they will ever tell us,” said Vince.
Keanu replied that if the Mastermind isn’t revealed as someone of importance it would be really, really lame.
Inside the house, Ashley and Morgan complained that Vince and Keanu were talking too much. Morgan was cheering Vincent on.
Keanu’s talking was indeed his undoing. As he was speaking about skateboarding and video games, he dropped at approximately an hour into the competition handing Vince the win.
