Set on making sure Biggie's house was spotless just as he wanted, the Show Ya Sef housemates immediately got to work under HoH Barry's guidance. But beyond the chores, they had their eyes on the main event of the day: MIPOW voting, and they spent much of it going around the house rallying for votes.
8:00 am: Chores kick off under Barry's watch
Ricky started his day with a workout in the Garden, lifting a chair for reps and squeezing in some push-ups, before HoH Barry roused the house for a cleaning brief. Barry read out the day's assignments, confirming he'd be tackling the kitchen and lounge with Chimsom Chuka, Aikou and Sheba. When he paired Ricky with Tram for lounge duty, Tram wasn't thrilled, insisting Ricky "won't do it" — a claim Ricky brushed off, calling the lounge the easiest room in the house to clean while Tram argued it actually needed vacuuming.
9:00 am: Cleaning and early campaign moves
The whole house got down to cleaning, with Barry commending Bluethopia and Tram for their effort while Ricky swept through the Main Lounge. Sheba wasn't convinced HoH Barry had grasped the scale of the brief, pointing out the kitchen cabinets still needed washing. Over in the Laundry Area, Flora's singing got on Oyin's nerves as they scrubbed the sink together, while in the Orange Bedroom, Bluethopia kicked off her MIPOW campaign, asking Bells and Yusuf for a perfect score across every category.
10:00 am: Toilet duty tension and more campaign pitches
A dispute broke out in the kitchen over cleaning duties. Keivo got to work on the Closet, and in the Laundry Area, Barry praised Flora's cleaning effort, sparking a light-hearted argument with Oyin over who'd actually done the most work. Sheba moved on to prepping ingredients for breakfast, enlisting Oyin and Flora to chop pepper and onion, while Keivo made his own MIPOW pitch out in the Garden.
11:00 am: House shopping and more campaigning
The house gathered for their weekly shopping session, discussing what they needed before wrapping up. With MIPOW voting looming, campaigning went into overdrive: Temi Nkem tested her kitchen knowledge for Barry to prove she "runs" it, then dashed around the house asking for votes — even covering Tram with a blanket mid-pitch. Keivo and Bluethopia struck a vote-trade deal, while Flora admitted regret over voting for Aikou last week without seeing the same effort returned.
12:00 pm: MIPOW Voting time
Housemates gathered in the Main Lounge as Barry read the MIPOW brief before voting began. Temi Nkem was visibly disappointed to learn Yusuf hadn't voted for her, while in the kitchen, a funny exchange broke out between Tram, Temi Nkem, Sheba and Oyin over past evictions and who counts as "family" in the house. HoH Barry took a moment to clean the shower, while chatting with Keivo and Chimsom Chuka about life after the house, before calling everyone back to the lounge for another brief.
1:00 pm: Housemates get silly with the "Finish the Nonsense" task
Barry called the housemates into the lounge and read out a brief with a fun game. The rules for the Wonderland-themed game called Finish the Nonsense were simple: each housemate had to pick a nonsensical prompt from the Lucky Dip box, read it out loud, then finish the story, embracing absurdity over logic. Everyone had to go twice in the same order, after which the house would vote on the most imaginative ending.
The housemates dove in with wildly different energy: Bells kicked things off with a runaway pocket watch, Bluethopia spun a tale about a goat crashing a wedding and getting turned into Asun rice, and Temi Nkem declared herself a mushroom-turned-taxi. Sheba imagined a talking cat taking over as weather presenter, Chimsom Chuka linked a dancing teapot to rising house rent, and Aikou brought a dancing tortoise-and-cheetah showdown into a courtroom drama. Yusuf's story took an emotional turn involving his daughter's dream about a cockroach, while Flora had the room in stitches recalling Yusuf's infamous "Mad Hatter" moment from the wager. By the end of the first round, the game had done exactly what Biggie promised: turned logic on its head and had the house in fits of laughter.
2:00 pm: Aikou wins the game
The house gathered to vote on the most imaginative “Finish the Nonsense” story, and after a tie with Tram, Aikou came out on top. In the Laundry Room area, Chimsom Chuka opened up about his views on love and marriage, saying he dates with the intention to marry and values loyalty above all.
3:00 pm: Banter and gisting
Flora continued braiding Keivo's hair, with the two swapping gist about past Lush hair challenge wins. In the kitchen, Bluethopia and Temi Nkem traded playful jabs about their sleep schedules, and later Bluethopia showed off a pair of shoes with a surprising backstory — they'd once been someone's wedding shoes, sparking a mini chat about dream wedding footwear.
4:00 pm – A brief for the sponsored task arrives
Barry gathered the housemates to read a brief for a sponsored task with Chowdeck. The four teams are: Team Chowstore – Sheba, Chimsom Chuka and Yusuf; Team Relay – Flora, Keivo and Aikou; Team Voucher – Oyin, Tram and Ricky; and Team Events – Temi Nkem, Bluethopia and Bells.
The housemates get info packs and merchandise to prepare.
Bluethopia said she would go to the Garden because Temi Nkem is making noise. Bells joined her and she reads through the info pack. Temi Nkem was with them, and she started complaining about stomach pains.
5:00 pm – Let the games begin
The housemates move to the Arena. Barry is the Game Master; he reads the first game’s brief.
Each team chooses who will be the customer, rider and vendor.
Team Events – Temi Nkem, Bluethopia and Bells – start the game.
6:00 pm – The games continue
The second game – a quiz game – started. The teams compete. They must answer questions and the first team to buzz the buzzer first, may answer first.
Barry read the brief for the third game. Team Relay is the only team to participate in this game. It is an individual game. Each person has to build a puzzle.
7:00 pm – The winner is…
Team Relay starts with the last game, and Keivo is the first one to complete his puzzle and he said “done!”
The housemates go back into the house and spoke to each other about the sponsored task. Barry mentioned that they were not raising their hands when they played the quiz game.
Flora said she's not happy that it wasn't a team win – when her team reached the end, Keivo had won. Oyin did her make-up while Flora finished Keivo's hair. Chimsom Chuka wanted to do twists and asked Flora how much it is, and she said 2k BB Bucks. Barry joined them in the Main Lounge and Chimsom said it's Barry and Keivo's week.
Bluethopia asked Ricky if he gave Temi Nkem money and said he’s a good guy for doing that.
Barry reads the winning brief. Team Relay and Barry won, but ultimate winner is Keivo. Flora was announced the weekly winner of Lush Hair.
Bells did Yusuf's hair – to dye it in the Salon. Chimsom Chuka ate a chicken wing and Yusuf wanted chicken too. Flora sees Yusuf's hair and says "Wow". Tram told Yusuf to go brighter.
8:00 pm – The housemates prepare for the party
Tram checked which Add Me spice he wants. He asked Flora which one has chicken and he started to make food. Flora danced and sang, she said, “Give it up for the two-time Lush winner.”
Tram said he’s mad because he’s hungry. Flora tried to advise him on how to cook and she said she is in a happy mood. Tram told her to leave him alone and he makes noodles.
Bluethopia, Temi Nkem and Sheba do their makeup. Chimsom Chuka ironed his clothes.
9:00 pm – The Saturday Night Link-Up starts
The party is sponsored by Gordon’s. The theme for this week is Wonderland. Big Brother provided costumes for the housemates, and they can customise it with accessories and their own personal touch. The housemates move to the party room.
Keivo held Bluethopia's waist as they dance. Tram, Oyin and Flora are dancing together.
10:00 pm – More dancing
Barry dancing with Oyin. Chimsom and Sheba dancing. Bells twerking for Yusuf. The “Mr Barry” song plays and Barry dances in a circle. Everybody else dances.
The party ended just before 11:00PM and the housemates go back to the house.
11:00 pm – Things get loud
The housemates talk about how the party was, they enjoyed it. Oyin, Flora and Bluethopia sing a song.
In one of the bedrooms, Yusuf told Bells there is so many things he wants to say to people. He talks about who he likes in the house and who he thinks he will stay in contact with. He said to Bells it's been two months since he made love, and Bells asked what did they do last night? He said they were dry humping.
Sheba and Ricky have a talk downstairs. She told Ricky that she wants to take a shower and will figure out how the night will be.
Oyin told Yusuf in the Closet that he likes Bells and he responded by saying, he loves Bells, Oyin shouted that Yusuf and Bells are sexual and Yusuf tried to shut her up.
Then, Oyin fired at Ricky and said he is all talk and no action, and Flora tried to stop him. Oyin said Aikou is so disappointed in her and that she only loves Aikou and Tram and the rest she doesn't like them.
Bluethopia hanged her laundry.
Aikou checked if Sheba is drunk. Ricky seemed angry.
Aikou and Barry were chilling in the Main Lounge. They talked about how people get drunk and they talk about knowing their limit. Aikou says if would get drunk he would drink and sleep.
