Its Live Eviction night! Katherine chose not to use her Veto the night before. There were three up for eviction and one of them gets to take himself off the block by winning BB Block Buster. However, Zach had a secret power going in tonight. He could offer Ava ten thousand dollars to come off the block. The one issue with this was that Zach didn’t want to give Ava that money. He’d risk losing an advantage. He can go ahead and claim that he was doing it for Morgan. He was supposedly afraid she would go up on the black as a replacement nominee. It was pure fiction because the one person he’s not willing to betray is Lauren.
The Live feeds were still live after all. Zach was willing to betray Vinny if it came down to the two of them on the block. He’s been talking to Mickey and Morgan. He heard what they had to say. Morgan would go to bat for him. She just couldn’t do it alone because she was a part of a bigger alliance. Mickey on the other hand was still living on a power trip. People have noticed the change in her behavior since she won HOH. She thinks she’s running that house and what she says goes. She would rather keep Vinny than Zach. And she told Zach that he wasn’t safe.
The one person saying they’d pick Vinny over Zach was Mickey. Morgan didn’t want it. Nor did Mickey bother asking anyone else in her alliance. She felt that Vinny would be better for her game and that was it. Ashley tried to talk game play with her. Mickey bluntly said she’d tell her what to do once she makes a decision about what’s best for her own game and other people’s games. It felt like Mickey had a team, but Ashley didn’t seem to be on it. Ashley picked up on that. She told Will and Rachel about it. They were both upset as well.
They couldn’t believe that Mickey thought she was running things. None of them chose to talk to her about it. The one person she’d listen to was Morgan and Morgan wavered on Zach for a bit. She has a crush on him. It’s clear to see. The house even talks about it. They also talk about how Zach wasn’t interested in Morgan. He has feelings for Lauren. Morgan often found Zach chatting up Lauren. He betrayed Adrian to protect Lauren. Morgan was finally waking up to the fact and that’s when Zach became a villain.
Zach does have feelings for Lauren. Again, she’s the one person he wouldn’t betray. He ended up talking to Morgan after she got super jealous and he told her about the buyout power he has. He did it as a means of manipulating her into keeping him in the game. Morgan wasn’t lying when she talked to Vinny. She has been trying to whip the votes in his favor and he’s been too busy flirting with Lauren. Lauren wasn’t a power in this house. She counts as one vote. She wasn’t aligned with anyone. She was friends with both Vinny and Zach. She doesn’t matter. The others do.
Lauren would vote with the majority to keep herself safe. Morgan was willing to be the fool for Zach and advocate to keep him. Zach didn’t remember that until Morgan got jealous. Hence he came out with his manipulation. It was truly villainous to play on someone’s emotions when you know you’re not interested. Zach didn’t held onto the money for himself. Zach later played BB Block Buster with Vinny and Keanu. Keanu won! Keanu was safe another night and Zach’s worst fears were realized. He was up against Vinny for eviction.
Zach didn’t use his final moments to tell anyone else about the ten thousand dollar buyout. He only told Morgan. She kept his secret tonight and then the voting started. Ashley chose to still vote with Mickey to evict Zach. Will and Rachel chose to go against Mickey by voting to evict Vinny. The votes ended up going in Vinny’s favor. The house evicted Zach tonight. He didn’t have the numbers. Not even Lauren voted to keep him. Morgan also voted with the house, but hey, Zach at least walks away with ten grand.
Who was the most upset by Zach leaving? It was a tie between Vinny and Lauren. They shed tears over that man leaving. The rest of the house were sad about this eviction too. And Zach knew exactly who voted to keep him.
THE END
