We think it’s fair to say Big Brother 19 has had the most shocking first week on the live feeds than any full season of the CBS ratings juggernaut.
We’ve had one houseguest quitting after a surprising bust-up with one of her fellow allies, and some shocking twists thanks to the Den of Temptation.
But what happened over the long weekend that’s got everyone talking? Okay. Let’s get to it.
As we previously reported, Cody tried his hardest to try and find common ground with Alex. In short, he felt like she was a strong player and deserved to be there.
However, Alex told him to his face that she would be targeting him and the rest of the couples if she got into power. That meant Cody had no choice and had to nominate her.
Unsurprisingly, Alex emerged victoriously in the veto competition, securing her safety for the week. The other side of the house immediately questioned what they should do because Cody was going to have to name his fifth nominee.
Initially, Cody thought it would be a good idea to backdoor Jason and send the cowboy out of the game early on. However, his alliance members were against this idea.
This presented Cody with a dilemma. He was friendly with Paul and Christmas but felt like they were going to take him out as soon as they got the opportunity.
At the veto meeting, Cody nominated Paul as the replacement nominee. However, Paul had the Pendant of Protection and practically shoved it in Cody’s face.
So, Cody then put Christmas on the block. As expected, it caused a lot of drama on the feeds and Christmas felt betrayed because she thought she had a good thing going with Cody’s side of the house.
While Christmas fumed, Cody told Paul that he was the target because he did not give him one of the friendship bracelets. Paul respected the decision but was still unimpressed that Cody used underhand tactics to get revenge.
The plot thickened Monday morning when Christmas decided to jump on Jason’s back and fell flat on her face. In the process, she damaged her foot.
Presumably knowing she would likely be leaving, she asked producers to have a return next season. Christmas then left the house, and everyone thought she was gone.
Cody then had to think about naming a replacement nominee… again. He did not know what to do because he’s put so many people on the block in the first week.
Surprisingly, Christmas reappeared with crutches. Her foot was not broken, but she had damaged ligaments and was told she would get an MRI scan at some point this week.
With Christmas on the block next to Jillian, will the house choose to keep her safe or send her out before her foot heals? It’s difficult because Christmas is seen as a competition beast.
Something tells us she may be getting an early exit from the Big Brother house.
