Big Brother Recap: The Final 3 Is Set, But Whose Game Went Up In Flames Just Days Before Finale Night?
Big Brother 27's Final 3 is locked, loaded and ready for finale night.
Thursday's live eviction episode whittles the houseguests down from four to three, and it all begins with Morgan winning yet another competition. But it isn't another veto around her neck — it's that highly coveted HOH key. The comp: Crime Lab, which sees players rolling around in large cubes, as they attempt to solve puzzles and "examine evidence." It's no surprise whatsoever that Morgan takes the cake on this one. Ava can't even get her cube to move, let alone get it back to her microscope with the right evidence pointing up. Ashley, sadly, doesn't perform much better. Thus, Queen Morgan's reign continues!
After the comp, Morgan says she wants an all-Judges Final 3. Regardless, Vince is feeling paranoid... or at least that's the story he's selling to Ava Pearl. However, cutting one's No. 1 has worked out well for winners in the past. BB5 victor Drew Daniel ejected Diane Henry from the house, while Big Brother Canada Season 2's Jon Pardy signed his check by eliminating Neda Kalantar. Will Morgan use this HOH to take a shot at her boy?
NOMINATIONS | When it's time to make the final noms of the season, Morgan plays it safe and puts Ashley and Ava on the block. (Rachel voice: Shocker!) But as we all know at this stage of the game, it all comes down to the last veto of the year. If Ashley or Ava can save herself, she can force Morgan to put up Vinny, and send him and his beanies packing.
VETO | The houseguests find themselves helping the BB P.D. track down the Mastermind by fixing some jumbled evidence boards. The boards are comprised of photos of events that happened inside Hotel Mysteré throughout the season. The houseguests' task is to arrange the photos (via slide puzzle) in chronological order by matching the pictures to the correct days. Although it's do-or-die for everyone whose name isn't Morgan, the gamer once again proves she's here to play when she secures her fifth veto of the season.
Morgan could've made a huge move right here, right now, by saving either Ava or Ashley, thereby sealing Vince's fate. However, she opts not to use the power of veto. SIGH. Ava throws us a tasty treat by asking Vince to "not contact her after this." Thank you, Ava Pearl, for the first truly entertaining morsel of the night. We are blessed.
THE VOTE | Vince now has all the power to send one of the ladies packing and he (unsurprisingly) evicts Ava. She does give him a hug on her way out, for whatever that's worth. And with that, Morgan, Vince and Ashley are the Final 3 houseguests of Season 27.
