Biggie's tricks are still rolling out in the Show Ya Sef house; today he tested the housemates with an obstacle course disguised as their morning workout. From wager prep to arguments over cleaning, here's everything that happened today.
08:00 am: A workout session with a twist
The day kicked off with an unexpected obstacle game in place of the usual workout. All housemates took part except Ricky, who sat it out.
09:00 am: Chimsom Chuka chats with Aikou
After the workout, housemates returned to the house to prep for the day. In the closet area, Chimsom Chuka and Aikou discussed instigating, with Aikou pointing out that Chimsom Chuka needs to come clean to the relevant people. They also touched on Oyin — specifically Chimsom Chuka's stance on her, and how tension between them started after Flora told Oyin that Chimsom Chuka had mentioned her name during conspiracy hour. Later on, HoH Tram and Abi called the housemates to the lounge for a chat. He tells them to use their time wisely, acknowledging that they're tired but reminding them that after an hour, they need to go through their wager. He points out that the house is messy and needs cleaning, updates the housemates on the props they're still waiting on from Big Brother, and thanks them for cooperating. He asks Keivo to help with painting and putting outfits together, and asks the housemates to check what's missing from their outfits so he can request them. He then assigns housemates to different areas of the house to clean.
10:00 am: Trouble ensues during Tram’s address
Sheba says the garden is clean and argues that the focus should be on the areas that are actually dirty. Tram responds that there are people who have been cleaning since Monday, citing Keivo, who has been on closet duty, and Oyin and Flora, who have been handling the garden and also helping him with the kitchen. He explains that he's changing up who cleans the kitchen because it's proven to be stressful, and asks that people not interrupt him while he's speaking, since he doesn't do the same to others. Sheba keeps talking over him, insisting she was just making a point and not speaking directly to him. Abi raises her hand, but Tram tells her he'll let her speak once he's finished explaining why certain areas are clean, and asks if anyone besides Oyin and Flora has been cleaning the garden to raise their hand.
Flora says it doesn't make sense that people use things and leave them, adding that she cleaned the kitchen just yesterday. Tram acknowledges there were other reasons before, but says this is a different week and they're specifically discussing what's happened since Monday. He says he doesn't understand people who weren't even assigned to the kitchen complaining about it, and that only Barry and himself, who were assigned, are in a position to challenge it. Oyin says the kitchen has been an issue since week one, with people leaving it dirty for Abi to clean during her influential week. She adds that the garden is only clean because she sweeps it every night since she sleeps there. Tram confirms that's exactly why he assigned Oyin to the garden because she takes care of it even when she isn't the one on duty. He thanks the housemates for attending the meeting, and they disperse to start cleaning.
As cleaning begins, Abi says more than five people have asked her what's going on between her and Ricky, and says she can't keep having that conversation. Ricky says he's fine with people asking her directly, but not with her turning it into a joke in front of everyone. He explains he approached her for a genuine reason, and that he's tired of people assuming they're "married" every time they're seen together — adding that he's okay if she no longer wants to speak to him. Abi insists she does want to keep talking to him, joking that his voice is soothing and always makes her sleepy, admitting she was actually asleep when he came to talk to her. Abi also asks Ricky what he thinks about Tram and his HoH reign. Ricky says Tram always wants a sense of control.
11:00 am: Sheba and Tram chat
Sheba tells Tram she felt the need to bring up her earlier point, clarifying she wasn't attacking anyone, but she just feels housemates should focus on cleaning the dirty parts of the house so they can move on to the wager. She adds that Tram hadn't written her name down or assigned her anywhere; Tram disagrees, saying he did assign her and that she fought him on it, insisting the garden wasn't dirty and that she wasn't going to argue about it. Sheba says people were laughing in the kitchen with their HOH joining in, and points out that everyone was focused on the wager just yesterday.
Tram says he believes she's mature, but feels some people are just looking for a fight, adding that her comment came out of nowhere and could have been said more respectfully. He asks if she thinks other people didn't have things to say too, noting that once Sheba commented, others felt they could jump in as well, whereas the house stayed quiet while he was speaking. Abi chimes in that this is typical, adding that she was also trying to say the kitchen needed four people, not the garden needing a crowd. Tram clarifies there wasn't a crowd in the garden, just the people who'd been cleaning it since Monday. Tram announces that cleaning will be general starting tomorrow. Bluethopia points out that won't work on a Friday. He clarifies that "general" doesn't mean what she thinks it means; housemates can clean wherever they want.
Abi's envelope reveal
In the kitchen while chatting with Sheba, Abi says she believes she's the most influential housemate for the week, explaining that Oyin told her her envelope said she'd be the next person to receive one. Sheba asks why she didn't mention this earlier, and Abi says she thought she had, referring back to when the envelopes were picked on Trick or Treat Tuesday.
12:00 pm: Ricky and Bells talk relationships
Ricky comments on finding Abi attractive, and Bells agrees, adding that Abi is very sexy. Bells asks what's really going on between Sheba and Araga; Ricky says Sheba is lonely, and that Araga is lonely too but too much of a "pussy" to act on it, especially after what Ricky told him about Goddessa. Bells says Ricky was right about Araga being a snitch, pointing out you can't have a private conversation with him without others finding out. Ricky opens up about not feeling great about himself growing up, saying that if he hadn't built up his physique, a lot of people wouldn't have paid him any attention.
Big Brother then asked the housemates to gather in the garden; Araga asks Bluethopia if she and Chimsom Chuka have kissed. She says no, adding that when they eventually do, she wants to press him against the wall the way Araga and Goddessa kissed during the pool party. Abi laughs, calling the Goddessa-Araga kiss "insane."
Housemates return to the house, and Bells and Abi talk about Yusuf and the issues they are having.
1:00 pm: Abi gets a treat
While chatting with Bluethopia and Barry, Chimsom Chuka shares that he studied pharmacy because his father was one, adding that his dad always said he'd do anything to give his children a good education.
Tram then checks in with Temi Nkem about the song for the circus segment. Bluethopia, Barry and Chimsom Chuka continue their chat; they discussed birthdays and gifting. Biggie then asks the housemates to gather in the lounge. A Ninja walks in with a box with the label “Treats” on it and asks Abi to choose an envelope — it read "Psych!!" and Abi had to do a frog jump around the kitchen area. After she was done, Abi laughed, asking what she did to deserve that from Big Brother. Tram then tells the housemates to get ready to head to the Arena for wager rehearsals, giving them a 10-minute marl and instructing them to go straight in once the doors open.
2:00 pm: Wager rehearsal begins
The housemates get into the arena to get into character and begin their wager rehearsal. HoH Tram guides them through it, pointing out any errors that need fixing.
3:00 pm: Rehearsals wrap up
Housemates leave the Arena and return to the house to continue prepping for the wager presentation. Shortly after, Big Brother announces that everyone should head to the eviction doors; a request that immediately shocks the house. A Ninja then appears holding a paper that reads "Dance," and the housemates spring into action right away.
Chimsom Chuka and Sheba are in the Main Lounge and played rock, paper scissors to see who is going to wash the dishes. Sheba said people are getting hornier by the day because conversations have been around sex. Sheba lost the game.
4:00 pm – Spiritual things
Tram, Aikou and Sheba discuss the wager in the Main Lounge. Sheba and Araga then work on the props. Tram said that he doesn’t trust Bells.
Yusuf was sweeping in the Games Lounge while chatting to Bells about the tasks and getting immunity.
Bells also mentioned about something that happened in her life. She explained Yusuf that her dad had a dream and told her not to take anything from someone, and months after she took gold rings from someone, she remembered what he said.
5:00 pm – The Wager preps continue
Tram had a discussion with Temi Nkem, Sheba, Oyin, Aikou and Barry, Flora and Chimsom Chuka. They worked on their song for the Wager.
Temi Nkem rehearsed her lines and Tram gave her notes.
6:00 pm – Almost that time
The housemates get ready for the Wager. Keivo painted Flora's face.
Chimsom Chuka sang with the housemates as they rehearsed their songs – he leads them through the song.
7:00 pm – It’s time for the Wager
The housemates move to the Arena for their Wager presentation.
The housemates start with their Wager, with Temi as the witch. Abi, the host, introduced the circus.
After the presentation was done, Biggie said they did well with the costumes and makeup. He praised Temi Nkem's performance. Biggie also praised the clowns Barry, Araga and Flora for their performance. He added that every act had nothing to do with their plot of their story.
The housemates lost the Wager, and they returned to the house.
8:00 pm – He knew they would lose it
Bells told Yusuf that she's proud of him and Chimsom Chuka with her. He said Yusuf is always in character.
Chimsom Chuka said he knew they would lose the Wager.
Bells said that she was hurt about the Wager. She explained all the changes they were making, and they were not taking her ideas. Yusuf said they lost because of a lack of structure.
Chimsom Chuka asked Bluethopia to be his date for the Pool Party and she agreed.
The housemates get ready for the party.
9:00 pm – It’s time to party
The party started and the housemates made their way to the Pool Area. The dancing started, and the housemates shared food.
10:00 pm – More dancing and vibing
Some of the housemates are enjoying the pool, while some are vibing on the dance floor.
11:00 pm – The heat is on after the party
The pool party is over, and the housemates return to the house.
Yusuf told Ricky that he’s been feeling mentally tired and nostalgia since last Saturday. He added that he wishes on their next Wager they can work together and put their differences aside.
Ricky said he wanted them to fail and Chimsom Chuka said he knew they would fail. According to Yusuf, it was the time management. They joked about always thinking Ebuka will call their name and them being evicted.
Abi told Tram to go to his loft.
When they are in one of the bedrooms, Sheba told Abi that they can share Ricky, because he has two big hands. Ricky pulled Sheba to his blankets and whispered to her, asking her why is she doing this to herself? They talk under the blankets.
