Butt first, let's

Now that I'm processing it I'm cynical and I fear this may be the worst case scenario. Tyler can manipulate her into doing L6's dirty work and The Four get to spend the week smug and obnoxious and clear of any of the blame for the week.

It could still be pretty entertaining though. With her HOH she may be able to avoid any confrontation of her vote and watching her be wishy washy on what she wants to do could be fun.

Tyler probably has the most pull. But fessy may be able to work some magic for the other side.

I think Yoga is gonna go Scorched Earth and toss up Haliegh and Fessy outright because her chakras are misaligned and hurt.
Angela or Sam will be the backdoor.

I do think she will try ot pull the "i dont want to get blood on my hands" and go for Sam and Scottie or something like that. But Swaggy and crew will not like that at all.

I really want the terms “blood on my hands” to leave this game forever.

Kaitlin putting up Swaggy would be funny. There must be something else going on that I haven’t seen. Not sure why she’d throw away her alliance, as tenuous as that is, for just her and Tyler.

To be fair, I forgot there was a person named Rachel in the house.

Kaitlyn’s “plan” is already falling apart after people think about it for longer than a second.

There really isn't. Swaggy was sketched out by her last week when all the Haleigh/Fessy drama was happening, they had a small conflict, and he was talking to their alliance that they have to worry about her with that, but it didn't go beyond that day or so. Tyler just used that kernel of truth and expanded it into "Swaggy is trashing you all the time and your entire alliance doesn't trust you!" He's been whispering it in Kaitlyn's ear while giving her dreamy eyes and she's been misted. Its that straightforward.

Tyler is SCARY powerful right now with the Cloud and Sam's Bonus Life. That's a lot of power for BB. He's basically got an Immunity Idol with the Cloud. All he has to do is be able to read when he needs it.


edit: Also Winston's getting a really cozy edit. If BB doesn't do a paranoia segment on Wednesday they're leaving amazing material on the floor to protect him.

This year's cast are entertaining, but incredibly unlikeable. Tyler is the only one I don't hate.

He strikes me as a pretty ok dude. He's not super compelling or anything but I like the guy.

I don't really dislike Haleigh, Kaycee, or Scottie either.

Putting up Swaggy is the worst BB Brother move I can think of.

Mind you, I haven’t thought that hard about it and I tend to exaggerate.

Tyler expended far too much capital to get Swaggy out. If he could have achieved it with a gentle nudge, great - but the he exposed his game getting out a big target that wasn't coming after him. With Swaggy gone, the bonds holding his alliance together also weaken as Fessy is the only other person worth uniting against - and is likely gone next week, which would be followed by a redrawing of alliances, and everyone other than Sam and Kaitlyn seeing him as the biggest threat.

Man, I know they had a story to tell that filled the episode (and a drat good story at that) but its a genuine tragedy that they're not showing ANYTHING about Winston's true character. Like, the TV audience deserves to witness the Whisper Corner.

That quick shot of all of Kaitlyn's shell shocked allies just frozen on the couch alone after the POV meeting feels iconic to me. Kaitlyn certainly did make a massive move that will be remembered, but I don't think she's playing the role in it that she thinks she is.

Its a shame Fessy won that random Crap App the first week because he was incredibly sympathetic in that episode and would seem like a popularity contest contender. Its also kind of dumb that the Crap App disqualifies you from winning the Power App, but whatcha gonna do?

And I see Cody is as charismatic as ever. At least their presence was short.

I'm always surprised when they let versions of "this season suuucks" in the eviction speeches. Like you'd think those speeches are pretty rehearsed with production and saying everyone is putting on bad television would be a red line but it happens a lot.

I had him at like 80/20 so I'm not super shocked. But I had Haleigh 80/20 the other way so I was 0-2.

Minorly interesting footnote, the entire L6 spent all week talking about how they were gonna clown Swaggy and insist on calling him "Chris" but I'm pretty sure only Kaycee actually did it.

That's kind of appropriate since Tyler's savvier than that, the Four are tryhards, and Kaycee is the one who has just really bought in to the pack mentality.
