Ezekiel

**Ezekiel** is a houseguest on *Big Brother 36: Hijacked*.

Mary wins the first HOH of the season, and quickly wants to target the houseguests she’s annoyed by. She finds herself aligned with rocker Rock, and finds early dislike in Ezekiel, Jen, Justin, Leonard, and Pete. She believes Ezekiel is sexist, finds Leonard and Pete to be annoying, and actively has early conflict with them both, and is disgusted by Jen and Justin’s vapidness and vanity. Their similar interests in beauty though bonds them immediately, and they form the first showmance of the season. Meanwhile, other alliances form as Alejandro forms a men’s alliance with loyal cadet Brick and Devin while Heather aligns with Carrie and Katie to form a women’s alliance. Carrie and Devin also form a strong friendship prior to nominations, and develop a mutual crush on each other. Finally, Dawn and Ella form a bond over their shared interests in nature and animals. At the nomination ceremony, Mary ultimately nominates her enemies Ezekiel and Leonard, the former of which she had an argument literally prior to making nominations. Both nominees have no support from the rest of the house, as their sexism and lack of awareness respectively make them easy targets. The Roadkill competition is later introduced, and the houseguests get to compete to nominate a third person secretly. At the first Roadkill competition of the season, Devin wins. Going into the roadkill nomination, Courtney and Emma annoy the houseguests with their constant complaining about different things in the house, such as messiness, and their complaining even annoys each other, despite sharing very similar personalities. This leads to Devin nominating Courtney for being more annoying, making the nominees she, Ezekiel, and Leonard. Courtney has a meltdown in her bedroom about the nomination, but receives comfort from Brick and Katie. They tell her to stay strong, and to worry less because the other nominees are far more likely to be evicted over her. Later at the POV competition, Mary wins, granting all of the power of the cycle. All of the nominees campaign to be taken off the block, but each of their pleas completely annoy Mary. A bit of time after the POV competition result, it is announced that the houseguests have the opportunity to win the DPOV. Through some clues and working with her allies Devin, Heather, and Katie, Carrie finds the DPOV. She has the ability to use up to Cycle 7. She tells the three about it because they helped her. Heather is annoyed that Devin knows about the power, as she preferred to keep it consolidated within the alliance. Later at the POV Ceremony, due to being annoyed by the three nominees’ pitches to be saved, Mary discards her POV win, keeping the nominations the same. Going into the eviction, Courtney has another meltdown over potentially going home. Again, she finds comfort in Brick and Katie. Meanwhile, Ezekiel and Leonard continue to annoy the house with their antics. While all three nominees have reasons to go home, it comes down to Ezekiel and Leonard for being more annoying to deal with. Brick and Katie push for Ezekiel to go for being outwardly sexist, and many of the women are on board. In the end, Ezekiel’s lack of a good social game leads to his unanimous eviction in a 14-0-0 vote.
