Keivo bounced back from finishing second in last week’s HoH games to claim the Week Nine crown and immunity. But the bigger twist came during nominations, when Barry was handed a decision that could change the fate of the entire house.
Keivo takes the HoH crown
The housemates faced a four game course, with points from each challenge added together to determine the overall winner. They had 15 minutes to complete the course, testing their determination, patience, resilience and focus.
The final challenge, aptly titled Slow and Steady, required each housemate to build a stable stack and leave the platform without bringing it down.
While several housemates struggled to keep their stacks standing, Keivo completed the challenge successfully and finished with the highest overall score.
After coming close last week, Keivo finally claimed the HoH crown. He chose Aikou as his Loft mate, while Oyin became the week’s Benchwarmer.
Keivo’s HoH title also came with immunity, although he had no power over the night’s nomination process.
Barry chooses immunity for all
The nomination process took a completely unexpected turn when Barry was called into the diary room to exercise his Ultimate Veto Power. Inside an envelope were two choices: Immunity For All or Immunity For None.
The second option would have stripped every housemate, including the HoH, of immunity.
After asking Biggie for clarification, Barry chose Immunity For All and confirmed his decision.
Biggie instructed him to keep the choice completely secret, warning that any attempt to hint at what had happened could cost Barry his own immunity.
Back in the house, Biggie announced that the nomination process was complete and told the housemates that their fate would be revealed on Sunday. He also reminded them that they were not allowed to campaign or discuss perceived voters.
What the housemates did not know was that Barry’s decision had already changed everything.
By choosing immunity for everyone, Barry secured the entire remaining house a place in the finale, officially locking in the Show Ya Sef Top 10.
Following the decision of Ultimate Veto Power Holder Barry, all Housemates have immunity, meaning there will be no public vote this week.
