Overview
- Vince won the Head of Household in a tiebreaker over Kelley, marking his third HOH of the season.
- He initially nominated Kelley, Ava and Keanu, but after Morgan won her third Power of Veto and used it on Ava, Vince named Lauren as the replacement nominee.
- Morgan and Ashley are pressing to evict Lauren to break up the Ava–Kelley–Lauren trio, while Vince has promised Lauren safety and faces a loyalty squeeze.
- Vote math varies by who wins the BB Blockbuster, with multiple scenarios that could produce a tie and leave Vince to cast the deciding vote or render him powerless if two votes flip.
- Live feeds were down for extended stretches, and house talk about a perceived Vince–Morgan closeness, highlighted by Zingbot, is feeding mistrust as decisions are weighed.
