Big Brother fans, Keanu Soto has made his replacement nominee decision, and it’s going to start a war with Rachel Reilly! He’s betrayed her yet again, and when she finds out what he’s been doing behind her back, their alliance might be completely dead. Let’s break down all the chaos from the feeds.
Big Brother Spoilers: Competition Correction and Morgan’s Decision
Quick clarification on the Power of Veto competition – it was a stacking comp but not the tiny veto. Houseguests had to stack odd-shaped items that looked like wine glasses and charcuterie board foods, which makes sense with Angela there tormenting the competitors.
Morgan Pope is using the POV on herself, despite Keanu trying to trick her into doing something else. She’s finally showing some sense and not throwing her game away for Vince Panaro.
Keanu and Vince’s Problematic HOH Conversations on BB27
Saturday brought a lot of “bro bonding” in the HOH room with Keanu drunk on power and Vince trying to muster whatever testosterone he has for their talks. The ignorance was off the charts.
The brain trust that is Vince and Keanu decided that Cliffton “Will” Williams is bonding with Morgan because her dad is Black and her mom is white, and they think it’s because Will’s wife is white. These two are sharing a brain cell because Will calls his wife his “chocolate drop” all day long – not “white chocolate drop” or “carob drop,” but chocolate drop.
Then came an absolutely cringe moment when they were watching Ava Pearl on the screen. Keanu told Vince how different Ava looks with her hair up and said she looks good like that. Then Keanu said, “If Ava didn’t have body hair, I think I’d…” and laughed in a creepy way while Vince giggled. Ava’s going to hate hearing this later, especially since she’s proud of being natural with leg and armpit hair.
Big Brother Spoilers: The Replacement Nominee Drama Unfolds
Now that Morgan has the veto around her neck, she’s telling Vince to go campaign and “pull a Rachel.” Keanu’s trying to control everything to keep Vince safe after putting him on the block in the first place. If you want to keep an ally, don’t nominate them – genius level strategy there.
Keanu could nominate Kelley Jorgensen as a replacement and she’d probably go on a unanimous vote, but he’s got his sights set on Ashley Hollis.
Rachel proposed saving both Ashley and Vince by suggesting Lauren Domingue as the replacement nominee instead. She told Keanu that if Ashley goes up, Vince won’t have the votes to stay against her, but if Lauren goes up, Vince is likely safe.
Rachel warned Keanu that Lauren’s indecisive, might target both of them, and is good in competitions. Keanu surprised Rachel by saying he didn’t want to lose trust with Lauren, revealing a connection she didn’t know about.
Big Brother 27: Keanu’s Ultimate Betrayal
Here’s where Keanu really screwed up. He took Rachel’s idea to Vince about renominating Lauren, and Vince found it appealing. But then Keanu suggested a twisted plan – tell Morgan that Lauren would go up instead of Ashley to convince her to use the veto on Vince, then nominate Ashley anyway.
Then Keanu ran straight to Lauren and told her that Rachel brought her up as a replacement nominee. Now Lauren’s furious and wants to win HOH to put Rachel on the block – exactly what Rachel predicted would happen.
Keanu also told Lauren what Rachel said about her being indecisive, further damaging their relationship. He’s systematically destroying Rachel’s game while she’s been trying to help him.
Big Brother Spoilers: The Two Faces of Vince
Vince went from laughing and giggling with Keanu in the HOH room to playing his Oliver Twist whiny crybaby act with Morgan in the Have-Not room. There’s definitely a whole different person hiding under that raggedy beanie.
Angela apparently gave Vince a long hug at the veto competition, probably because she found another member of Big Brother‘s biggest crier club. They’re neck and neck for most tears in a season.
Ashley Threatens War on BB27
Ashley made it crystal clear to Keanu that if he nominates her and she stays, she’s coming hard for him. He seems unconcerned, but Ashley told Rachel later that she might have gone too strong in their conversation.
Keanu’s been told by multiple people that the way to guarantee Vince stays is to put him next to Kelley or Lauren, but he refuses to nominate either of them.
Big Brother Spoilers: Kelley Tries to Give Good Advice
Kelley talked to Keanu and gave him some solid reads that he couldn’t hear – probably because a woman was talking. She clocked the potential jury votes for him, but Keanu doesn’t see it. She said Vince has connections to that side, but Keanu dismissed it.
Kelley told Keanu that renominating Ashley will upset Rachel, and he said no. She told him Rachel said that exact thing – a shot at Ashley is a shot at Rachel. He still said no. Keanu thinks Will controls Ava’s vote, which shows his misogyny, and Kelley corrected him on that too.
Rachel Declares War on Big Brother
Rachel already made it clear that if Keanu renominates Ashley, it’s war. She said she and her allies will come for Keanu and that it will be a battle. But Keanu seems oblivious to the storm he’s about to create.
Other random feed updates: Ava’s developed a taste for slop and ate five bowls in one day, but it’s making her both gassy and constipated. Mickey Lee continues to sit pretty as what appears to be a pawn.
Tonight’s Big Brother episode will show the HOH competition, Keanu’s win, and his nominations of Vince, Mickey, and Morgan. Tomorrow we’ll confirm whether Keanu really does nominate Ashley and destroys his relationship with Rachel in the process.
Morgan will definitely use the veto on herself – no amount of Jedi mind tricks or Vince’s salty tears will change her mind on that decision.
