Looks like we are finally saying bye-con to an icon this week!
Last week, LaTrice Verrett became the first Big Brother Season 28 jury member during Drew Campbell‘s first Head of Household, with the support of icons — Season 26’s Angela Murray, Survivor‘s Dee Valladares, and Rick Devens — and their fellow Crossovers ally, Barrett Pfeiffer. While it was clear Angela didn’t want to see LaTrice go and voted to save her over Taylor Brown, the four-to-two vote left the rest of the house questioning which other Houseguest voted for Taylor’s eviction. According to Melody Morris, who secretly voted to keep LaTrice as well, she’s taking that secret to her grave.
Another major player during Week 9 has been Dee’s BB Bribe advantage, which she used to get Yash Patel to promise that he would not put up herself, Devens, or Angela during his next HOH for the entire week. Was $5,000 worth the potential target on his back?

HOH: Barrett took home his first Head of Household win during Week 9 of the competition. This competition took Houseguests back in time to St. Patrick’s Day in 1601, where outgoing Head of Household Drew set the mood with a questionable faux Irish accent.
For the competition, Houseguests had to roll a series of rainbow colored balls into matching colored zones on a wavy lane. If a ball went into the wrong color, which already contained the correct ball, the houseguests would have to reset both balls. In the end, Barrett fell into a groove, while the rest of the Houseguests struggled to keep up.
Nominees: After spending the summer working with the icons, Barrett decided to put Angela, Dee, and Devens on the block. Ahead of the nomination ceremony, Barrett told Angela that it was time for him to make a purely selfish choice, and she spilled to the rest of the icons that all three of them were going up.
In a last-ditch effort to save all three of their games, Dee told Barrett in front of Yash that he had accepted a bribe to keep all three of them safe during his next HOH. Yash then lied about the bribe, saying he had just vowed to keep Dee safe. While the icons had hoped that knowing Yash would have to put up his allies would put a target on his back, Barrett stuck to his plan to put the icons’ games in jeopardy.
