Synopsis:
New Head of Household (HoH) Jessie begins his tenure, with the Athletes clique (Jeff, Russell, Natalie) safe from elimination this week as a result of Jessie being a member of their clique. Lydia tries her best to curry favor with Jessie, but other house members notice her maneuvers. Ronnie goes to Jessie to form an alliance between the Brains and the Athletes to hopefully guarantee their safety for the next few eliminations. Jessie reveals the details of the first food competition, with a new twist that the competition is for more than just food. The three competing cliques - Brains, Offbeats, and Popular - dressed in neon war paint and had to connect pipes of various shapes and sizes to carry a stream of liquid across the game area. The Offbeat and Popular cliques places first and second, respectively, meaning the Brains are the "Have-Nots" this week. They now have to eat Big Brother slop, take cold showers, and sleep in the uncomfortable bedroom. Of the Brains clique, Chima is by far the least happy with the new living situation and makes it known. At the Nomination ceremony, the last two keys left belong to Lydia and Chima, meaning they are up for eviction, though Chima was supposedly nominated as a "pawn" so that the Athletes and Brains can vote out Lydia together.
