Big Brother Veto Results: Drew Considers a Stealth Move Then Backs Off and Taps [SPOILER]

We’ve got your Big Brother veto meeting results and renom. Drew Campbell contemplated an epic blindside to put another icon on the block – not Rick Devens, the icon who volunteered to go up. But like with so many plans in the Big Brother 28 house, the question was did Drew have the nerve to do it?

Big Brother 28: Drew’s Got it Down

Drew explained why he’s sticking with Devens, Angela Murray, and Dee Valladares. We saw Drew say in the Diary Room on Sunday, that he’s sticking with the icons because they’re cutthroat and called himself their “baby”.

Meanwhile, Melody Morris and some of the others in Big Brother 28 cannot separate game play from real life. Devens and Dee are good at compartmentalizing. Angela’s just a bundle of emotions.

We saw after Mallory’s eviction, Drew promised Melody “I’m never putting you up”. But I think if Drew feels like he’s got to do it, he will. And Drew contemplated a huge blindside with renoms.

On the castle comp on Sunday’s episode, I wondered if the females were offered the option to wear pants instead of those cumbersome skirts. They looked hot and made maneuvering harder.

Big Brother: Survivor Similarities

I also want to mention the chatter saying the castle stacking comp was rigged for Dee. I’ve seen people passing around a photo of Dee doing what looks like a near-identical stacking comp from Survivor 45. Here’s the photo.

First, the pic may look similar, but it was quite a different comp. Those were stable pieces, not wobbly. Second, Dee came in next to last. She didn’t win. Not even close. Third, that Survivor comp was a puzzle, the stacking part was incidental.

You had to figure out how to combine different height pieces to get them all to same overall height then stack a ring on top of them. Last, stacking comps are common on both Survivor and Big Brother.

BB24, BB25 and BB26 had similar wobbly stacking comps. And almost every season we get tiny veto stacking as well. It’s not unprecedented and was anyone’s game. But for those that think things are rigged, I’m sure this isn’t persuasive…

Big Brother: Alum’s Return Requests

Also, remember David Alexander? He was on BB21 but never made it into the house. He was relegated to Camp Comeback and evicted from there. Yet he was cast on BB22 all-stars. I think Janelle Pierzina might’ve been taking a hit at him.

She was asked at the Big Brother 1000th episode if she’d ever return and what it would take to get her back. Janelle said a shorter filming schedule and if it’s all stars, make sure the people coming back are actually all-star worthy.

Janelle said – “Not just someone that was there a day or 2 on their original season.” Some people have called that season small stars. One more note, Devens said to Drew, Angela, Barrett Pfeiffer, and Dee on the feeds that Yash Patel was wrong to be so exuberant after his POV win.

Angela said Yash made an “ugly mean face”. All I know is Devens danced his butt off on Survivor 50 when he won the Mr Beast idol. Like very exuberantly. On the flip, he didn’t do it in front of anyone.

But Drew defended Yash on this and said he “celebrates like a douche bag” when he wins. I say celebrate your wins. Enjoy your flowers.

Devens Steps Up & Drops a Shocker on BB28

Let’s talk renoms. Rick Devens initially volunteered, then tried to walk it back and pushed for Melody. Then Devens wanted guarantees on vote safety. Dee and Devens agreed if he goes up and is evicted because Barrett flips on them, none of them will vote for Barrett in the end.

Drew warned Dee he might renom her when she confronted him about why he’s not nominating Melody. Drew said he’s thinking of putting Dee up and she said NO – you better think again. Yet Dee just put Drew on the block…

And Dee was pushing for Drew’s eviction when Haley nominated him in week 4. So, Drew said if he doesn’t put Dee up, he expects her to return the favor. And she told Drew, “of course, it wouldn’t cross my mind to put you up”. Yet she already did.

So, the live feeds went down before 11:30 am Big Brother time on Monday and when they came back up, Yash had taken himself off the block and Drew named Devens renom putting him alongside Taylor Brown and Lala Verrett heading into Thursday’s blockbuster and first Jury eviction.

Devens feels confident he’ll win the BB Blockbuster but Lala’s a comp beast. And Taylor’s two decades younger than Devens and athletic. We’ll see – it’s all about the type of comp.

If it’s a word scramble or visual or memory comp, it’s anyone’s game. If it’s the ropes, I foresee Taylor and Lala smoking Devens.

Big Brother 28: Bets for the Block on Thursday

And if he’s on the block Thursday night, there’s a chance Barrett may flip on him. That’s top of Devens’ anxiety list right now. Drew keeps reassuring him that Barrett won’t do it. When Devens talked to Barrett about it, he directly reassured Devens he wouldn’t flip.

But it’s a resume-building move for final 2 talking points if Barrett’s the one who flips and gets Devens out – the first icon to go. There’s 9 people left, 6 votes this week, 4 to evict and the possibility of a tie-breaker.

If Taylor or Lala come off the block, they’ll vote to evict Devens. Melody will too. So will Yash. That’s 3. If Barrett flips, that’s 4 to evict Devens. Think about how that restructures the house.

That leaves Angela, Dee and Drew on one side. Then Taylor, Lala, Yash, Melody and Barrett. That’s 3 versus 5 and could literally change the whole landscape of Big Brother 28.

But it’s all down to Barrett. He broke ranks last week and wouldn’t vote to evict Mallory. And the fact Barrett did it knowing Mallory still didn’t have the votes to stay is a statement.

Big Brother: The Fallout from the Blockbuster

If the house splits like that, Drew may run to the bigger side of the house. Unfortunately, as long as Dee’s still in the house, Yash winning HOH is a bad idea since he can’t nominate Angela or Dee.

But Yash can throw the comp to someone else who takes out Dee. Once she’s gone, Yash is free. Her bribe is fulfilled once he wins HOH and doesn’t nominate the icons. Or if Dee, who bribed him, is evicted.

This week’s Blockbuster is the most crucial in BB28. If Devens wins it, Lala or Taylor goes home, and the house will be split 4-4 unless Barrett drifts back to the vet side, then it’s 5-3 in the icons favor.
