Eggs, arguments, and alarms
The second half of today started with a brief from Biggie assigning the housemates a new challenge, to babysit an egg. Each housemate received an egg they had to name, cater to, and watch out for. This task, designed to test their responsibility, was met with excitement, though the housemates knew they couldn't eat their new "children." Sultana quickly named her egg Pookie, while Dede and Kola were seen giggling about their new roles as egg parents.
The mood, however, was quickly complicated by simmering conflicts. As Imisi painted a prop for her egg, she got into a parent-like squabble with Rooboy, who felt she was being overly dramatic about the design of the egg pouch. Simultaneously, Kola sought out Imisi to address their differences. He rooted for her success but admitted her constant shouting embarrassed him in front of other housemates, highlighting the complicated nature of their friendship.
Meanwhile, Mensan finished off a beautiful painting of the Big Brother eye logo for the wager, and Kaybobo created a makeshift nest for his egg.
The Double Strike shockwave
The afternoon's atmosphere shattered when Biggie urgently summoned all housemates to the lounge. They were instructed to "Watch the clip closely," which was a replay of Zita losing her temper and throwing food at Rooboy during an earlier argument. Biggie reiterated the rulebook, emphasising that while arguments were normal, assault was unacceptable.
Zita was issued a double strike and cautioned that one more strike would result in her disqualification. She instantly apologised to Rooboy, admitting the clip made her action look even worse. Rooboy accepted the apology. Mide, in typical fashion, lightened the mood by joking, "Ehh, Zita, at least you looked nice on TV."
However, the moment triggered a deeper conversation for Mide, who told Koyin about a past assault, explaining that being hit was a trauma for her. She said Zita needed to learn to control her anger. Isabella also weighed in, telling Zita her brothers had advised her to refrain from herself because "that is not a good look."
Wager victory and a costly call
Following the tension, all housemates moved into the arena for their final Wager Presentation on Creative Expression. The house was divided into two teams: Team Colosseum and Team Outcast.
Team Colosseum, despite Faith separating himself from them due to a rehearsal fight, went first. They presented an art auction and a fashion show, embedding their personal stories within the creative process. Faith was ordered by Biggie to rejoin his team, even though he didn't perform.
Team Outcast took a narrative approach, telling a heartfelt story of a girl (played by Imisi) who chose her creative dream over her parents’ corporate expectations. The presentation ended on a triumphant note, emphasising that creativity is a vital part of human existence.
Biggie commended every housemate for their dedication throughout the season, and because of their spectacular performance, they won their wager! As a reward for their last victory, Biggie announced that the house would be treated like royalty next week.
The day’s drama wasn't quite over, though. The red telephone rang twice. Koyin picked first (earlier in the day) and accepted a deal for fresh haircuts and styling for the house at the cost of one million naira from the prize money. Later, Kola picked but turned down the offer of a luxurious manicure and pedicure for the same costly amount.
The housemates were so thrilled about their win that they immediately decided to throw a pool party, with Isabella appointed as the chief planner.
