## Season Summary

### Week 1

 **HOHPOV**

 **Nominee5 Votes**

 **Evicted10 Votes**

Eighteen houseguests who played in one season, reached the jury phase, but never won return for the ultimate second chance. Some pairings include showmance Mason and Vera (who are now officially dating) from BB29, former Seven Sheriffs allies Ethan and Joseph from BB28, alliance rivals Antonio and Brianna from BB27, while everyone else is the only representative of their season. Cindy becomes the first HOH of the season. Later, an alliance of all the previous runner-ups forms, which includes Brianna, Holly, Joseph, Lauren, and Vera. Even though Cindy is not a former runner-up, they want to get into her good graces. Brianna tells Cindy she would love to work with her, and is the first person to throw someone under the bus: Antonio. Despite the two of them originally competing together, Brianna is paranoid he will try to get revenge. Cindy is receptive to the idea, but also considers the option of targeting Gavin in case Antonio wins the veto, who she can't seem to get a read on. Antonio and Gavin are nominated for eviction. Cindy, Ethan, and Vera are drawn for the veto competition, with Cindy coming out on top. Cindy chooses to leave her nominations the same, and reaffirms to Brianna that Antonio is her target. Leading up to eviction, Brianna rallies up the troops to get Antonio evicted. On the other side of the coin, Bridgette is determined to have the house keep Antonio. Vera also tells Mason about the plan as well as that she is in a runners-up alliance, since Mason told her about Sin City Six later season. Mason tells Vera that feels like Gavin will be less trustworthy down the road compared to Antonio, and would rather keep him. On eviction night, the runner-up alliance is left on the wrong side of the vote when Gavin is evicted 10-5.

### Week 2

 **Post-Veto NomineeEvicted13 Votes**

Following Gavin's eviction, Holly wins HOH. She nominates Mason and Thomas, as they are two strong, athletic men that did not vote with her side. This leads to the two of them forming a strong bond and final two alliance. Cindy, Ethan, and Vera are drawn for the veto competition, with Mason coming out on top. Before the veto ceremony, Bridgette gloats to Mason that she was the mastermind behind Gavin's eviction last week. Mason tells Holly this, but she doesn't feel comfortable targeting a woman, but confides in the other women in her alliance on what she thinks the best decision is. Brianna says to Holly that Bridgette shouldn't be trusted by anyone and is very dangerous, since she betrayed and broke up her own boyfriend in her season. Holly ultimately names Bridgette as the replacement nominee after Mason saves himself with the veto. Bridgette starts getting into arguments leading up to eviction, while Thomas just lets her blow up her own game. On eviction night, Bridgette is unanimously evicted 13-1, with Antonio as the sole vote to keep her.

Following Bridgette's eviction, Joseph wins HOH, continuing the runners-up staying in power. Despite being on the same season together two seasons ago, Joseph realizes that Ethan has ghosted him during the first few weeks of this season, which leads him to believe he doesn't want to work with him this season. Angel and Ethan are nominated for eviction, since the two have grown close. Later, Ethan tells Joseph he was under the assumption they had an unspoken bond, but Joseph says he should've at least talked to him to show that he actually cared about wanting to work with him. Antonio, Vera, and Zara are drawn for the veto competition, with Vera coming out on top. Since she is not aligned with either nominee, she leaves them the same. The house ultimately respects Joseph’s HOH when Ethan is evicted 13-0.

Following Ethan's eviction, Thomas wins HOH. Later, a new showmance between Antonio and Lauren forms, worrying the runners-up alliance that she is putting a target on her back since Thomas knows that Antonio was the only to evict him two weeks ago. Their worst fears come true when Antonio and Lauren are nominated for eviction. Thomas tells Mason his target is Antonio, which Mason later reports to Vera. Brianna, Joseph, and Stacey are drawn for the veto competition, with Lauren coming out on top. With Lauren removing herself from the block, Thomas names Zara as the replacement nominee as a pawn, hoping she will have enough support to stay. Leading up to eviction, there is tension between Brianna and Lauren, as they have opposing opinions on who should be evicted. However, Brianna is able to get her way when Antonio is evicted 11-1.

### Week 5

Following Antonio’s eviction, Mason wins HOH. Since he and Cindy are the ones aware about the runners-up alliance, he decides to nominate two of its members: Holly and Lauren. Vera is frustrated with Mason, who says he could’ve easily worked with them. However, Mason tells her that they have no intention of taking him further than sixth place, and would rather dismantle them, but obviously keep her safe. Brianna, Holly, Joseph, and Lauren also about Vera’s loyalty to them vs. Mason. Colton, Joseph, and Zara are drawn for the veto competition, with Zara coming out on top. She does not use the veto, since she is not aligned with either of them. The house ultimately evicts Lauren 11-0, as the runner-up alliance saw Holly as more of an asset for them going forward.

Following Lauren's eviction, Zara wins HOH. With this power, she forms a new power alliance consisting of Angel, Brianna, Cindy, Colton, Holly, Zach, and herself called the Seven Wonders. This leaves Grace, Joseph, Mason, Stacey, Thomas, and Vera on the outside. Brianna and Cindy agree that they should try to balance working with both sides, who have secretly been working together since week one. Zara later nominates Thomas and Vera for eviction, with her target being Thomas as revenge for nominating her prior, and believed he was trying to backdoor her. Angel, Colton, and Joseph are drawn for the veto competition, with Angel coming out on top. He respects Zara's nominations by leaving them the same. With the support of Mason and runner-up alliance, Vera is able to easily survive eviction, as Thomas is evicted by a 10-0 vote.

Following Thomas' eviction, the final twelve learns about a double eviction. Seven Wonder member Colton wins HOH, nominating Grace and Joseph for eviction. He informs his alliance that he plans to backdoor Brianna, since he has become very suspicious about her loyalty. Angel, Vera, and Zach are drawn for the veto competition, with Angel coming out on top. He decides to save Joseph with the veto, therefore giving Colton the window to backdoor Brianna. She is very shocked by this decision, and prays she has the votes to stay. She does, as Cindy, Joseph, Holly, Mason, Stacey, and Vera all vote for her to stay after Vera begs for Mason to vote with her alliance. Angel, Zach, and Zara are blindsided.

Following Grace's eviction, Angel, Colton, Zach, and Zara find themselves on the bottom after Colton's decision to target Brianna, which also strayed Cindy and Holly away from them. Zach pulls off a clutch win for the foursome. He nominates Joseph and Stacey for eviction, with a plan in place to instead backdoor Vera rather than Brianna. Brianna, Colton, and Mason are drawn for the veto competition, with Stacey coming out on top. Vera is later named the replacement nominee. Leading up to eviction, Mason is determined to have Vera stay. Brianna and Holly feel closer to Vera than Joseph in their runner-up alliance. Brianna is hopeful that Cindy will evict Joseph too, but views herself as a swing vote. On eviction night, the vote ties 4-4. Zach evicts his target Vera from the game.

Cindy, Zach, and Zara are drawn for the veto competition, with Brianna coming out on top. Before the veto ceremony, Zach is informed in the Diary Room that one of his family members passed away.

Meanwhile, Holly contemplates on working with Angel and Zara again, despite saving their target Brianna during the double eviction. Brianna and Mason are nominated for eviction. Holly, Joseph, and Stacey are drawn for the veto competition, with Mason coming out on top. Before the veto ceremony, Holly ultimately betrays Brianna by throwing her under the bus to HOH Angel, saying she and Cindy are a super tight duo that needs to be split up. After Mason uses the veto on himself, Cindy is named the replacement nominee. Mason finds himself as a swing vote, with Holly and Joseph evicting Cindy, and Stacey and Zara evicting Cindy. In the midst of the week, Mason and Cindy form an official final two alliance. This ultimately convinces Mason to evict Brianna on eviction night, causing her eviction by a 3-2 vote.

 **Nominee1 Vote**

 **Evicted2 Votes**

Following Zara's eviction, Cindy wins HOH. She sets her sights on Stacey instead of Angel (who does not pose as much of a threat to her), because of her threat status as an under the radar player who is well liked by the jury, and correctly predicts that she is in a final three alliance with Angel and Joseph. Therefore, Cindy nominates Angel and Stacey for eviction. Holly wins the veto, but does not use it on Angel to not show her cards. On eviction night, Mason evicts Cindy's target (Stacey), Holly saves her ally Angel, and Joseph saves Stacey, who he's closer with between his final three alliance with them. Stacey is evicted 2-1.

She nominates Joseph and Mason, with the intent of targeting Joseph, since the two have continued to have a small rivalry ever since Joseph found out she was secretly working with Angel. Mason wins the veto and takes himself off the block. Angel is named the replacement nominee, hoping this seals Joseph's fate. However, Cindy and Mason agree that removing Angel will be great for both of their games. Angel is evicted 2-0.

 **Runner-Up4 Votes**

On eviction night, Cindy says she deserves to win because of her social game and near everyone being able to trust her at the jury phase. Mason says he deserves to win because he made more strategic moves by being the main person behind Gavin, Bridgette, Lauren, and Brianna's evictions, but also says had a strong social game and had a larger target on his back because of his relationship with Vera. Although it is a close vote, Mason wins the game by a 6-4 vote. Brianna is America's Favorite Houseguest.
