9:12PM BBT: Claire and Ky in the HoHR trying to figure out the BB Bucks. They can't decide how Hannah could possibly have received a good amount because she's boring.  Possibly because she's young (TikTok) or maybe she's from a good family?

8:53pm Big Brother Time

Azah, Alyssa and Big D are in the yacht bedroom talking about who might go on the block.

Xavier comes into the room to get Alyssa so they can do a “live” for Christian.  The camera follows them as they go to the Have Not Room. 

When they get to the room Alyssa tells Xavier that Kyland told her he did not want to tell her what he wanted to do at this time so she doesn't have to lie.  She says Kyland told her she would be informed and doesn't mind that.

Xavier tells her that is a good plan, Alyssa says she is planning to use the veto just to see where peoples' heads are.  Xavier says people are wondering why Xavier and Alyssa did not go on the block this week.  He says Derek X mentioned it.

Camera moves interrupts for just a minute.

Xavier says if they have the opportunity next week their target would almost have to be Derek X, not Kyland or Sarah Beth.  Alyssa agrees, she says she told Kyland anyone but Derek X or Xavier going on the block is fine with her.
Alyssa says Kyland mentioned Britini, she is least worried about Big D and Claire.  
Kyland also asked her if there was someone he would nominate she would have a problem voting out.
Xavier tells her to be vague with her answers, those questions are for information, Kyland asks questions that give him insight into other people's game. Xavier tells her again to be vague with Kyland.
Alyssa say she will not name “extra names.”
Xavier tells Alyssa that people will use meetings with her this week to “feed you bulls**t”.
Xavier also tells Alyssa that Derek X told him the reason for taking Christian out last week was only because he felt he couldn't beat Christian. Xavier says he told Derek X that last week was the reason they had two people on the block they were close to, causing them to be pitted against each other.

They continue to talk about Derek X and his move last week, saying it was a good game move. Xavier says Derek X would be willing to work with them in the future, but Derek X would approach him (Xavier) first.

Alyssa says “but he is working with Tiff and Claire.”
Xavier says Derek X can be useful to them, he tells Alyssa he has talked to Derek X already, but is waiting to see how she feels about it.
Alyssa mentions him working with Tiffany and Claire, and if either of them (Tiff and Claire) would win HOH they could tell them that Derek X mentioned them.
Xavier doesn't think that will matter, Tiffany is too close to Derek X.  If Xavier wins HOH he plans to use Derek X's speech against him, “I wanted to know if I took this shot, it hits.”

Alyssa says Derek X needs to come and speak to her, she doesn't want him to think Xavier is a messenger, she wants to be involved in her own game play, not just receiving messages. Alyssa is okay with making this connection, but she is clear, she wants Derek X gone from the house.  She says she has told him she isn't going after him in the future, but she plans to do just that if she has the opportunity.

Xavier is hoping that if Derek X thinks he is safe, he will not play in roulette, and put himself at risk.

Xavier says the house is why Christian went on the block, Derek X would not have put Christian up if he did not have the backing of the house.  Derek X was not doing what he wanted, he wanted Christian in the house longer.

Alyssa says she can't even talk to Big D about anything in the game, Alyssa says if people come up to her to talk about the veto, what kind of information she needs to get from them.
Xavier says since Claire is on the block it is a fair question “who would you put on the block if I save you?”
Alyssa says no one has really approached her to talk, she believes it is because of the “Christian thing”.
Alyssa says conversations she can have while she has the veto would help Xavier would be a good thing.
Xavier says veto holders don't really have meetings with people, and he tells Alyssa people are asking if Kyland threw the veto competition to Alyssa.
Alyssa says he did not throw it to her, but he said he wanted it.  Alyssa says she told him to go for it. Her story is: Kyland was debating on which one (picture) he wanted, and she grabbed it and ran up. She denies knowing what Kyland was doing.
Xavier says it looked to him like Kyland purposely threw it but has been denying it to anyone who speaks of it.  He isn't sure if people believe it.
Xavier says if Kyland has a plan to back door someone, let him use his veto and don't use hers; let him take it all on himself.  He advises Alyssa to make sure people know she is open to talking with them, but not by asking questions;maybe that will open conversations.
Xavier warns her for the third time to be vague with answers about targeting or thinking of targeting.

Camera moves to Big D and Azah talking (whispering) in the yacht bedroom.
Big D is telling Azah that she should “do this one thing” if she wants to protect Britini (sadly we missed what the “one thing” is)

Azah says they would not be under scrutiny if it weren't for Kyland, and if anyone needs to go out of the house it is him.
Big D leaves the room Derek X wants hot dogs.
Camera moves back to Have Not Room, Xavier and Alyssa have just finished a message to Christian (that he will never see because the camera moved until the last sentence.) 

Alyssa goes downstairs, Xavier follows.
Tiffany is sweeping the floor, she hears hot dogs, she says she is leaving the kitchen, they can do the dishes too.
Alyssa is sitting in the hallway bedroom, Claire has approached her.  Alyssa says Kyland hasn't really told her much, he wants to keep his thoughts to himself.  She says Kyland promised he would let her know by Monday morning.  Alyssa also tells Claire that Kyland says he did not throw the competition to her (Alyssa). Alyssa says maybe Kyland did it because he bet on her (Alyssa).

Alyssa says she wants to talk to her and Tiffany, she feels that people haven't been talking to her much, since Christian left. She says it was a game move and she is here to play. Alyssa keeps calling Claire by Tiffany's nickname, Tiff.  Alyssa tells Claire, if Kyland did throw it, she had no idea, she was competing.  Alyssa wonders if Kyland would put up Britini.

Claire says if the veto is used, it needs to be Kyland to do it, not Alyssa. He would have to make the replacement selection because he took someone down. She tells Alyssa to only use it if she feels that things are going badly. Claire also thinks Kyland might have thrown the veto to appease Alyssa and find a way to work with her.  Claire promises to let Alyssa know if....

Alyssa says she is going to “ice” her knees, neither her nor Claire know why they are scraped.

Cameras move to the living room area.
Britini is on one sofa, Xavier and Azah are tucked under a throw. When Alyssa walks up to Xavier Azah leaves and Xavier offers Alyssa Azah's vacated space.
After a time check Xavier says he is having a snack, then going to bed.
Britini asks Alyssa if she wants to play chess, Alyssa declines, Xavier says “don't ask me.” He says he has not played one game of chess in the house and has no plans to.

In the HOH room Sarah Beth, Derek X and Kyland are talking about the veto competition. Kyland is insisting he did not throw the competition.  Kyland is worried that the trust level has gone down since the veto, but hopes it will increase again after Monday.

The three of then begin planning who will win the next three HOH competitions.

In the kitchen Big D is working on the hot dogs while Xavier puts pre-mixed cookies on a sheet. I swear he just asked if he had to have a square sheet instead of the round ones, because the cookies are square in the package.........

10:06pm Big Brother Time

Claire is playing 52 card pick up in the kitchen/dining area.

Kyland, Derek X and Sarah Beth continue to plot in the HOH room. (Makes one wonder if Kyland is a loose cannon in the Cookout alliance).

10:21pm Big Brother Time
General talk in the living room area
Plotting and gossip in the HOH room

10:24pm Big Brother Time
Tiffany and Hannah are talking in the lavatory area.

Hannah says they need to steer Alyssa and Xavier away from working with Derek X and Kyland.
Tiffany says Kyland might think about putting Derek X on the block this week.
Hannah asks if Tiffany would tell her if that were happening.
Tiffany, “I just told you.”
Hannah sighs, Tiffany says she told him “no”, but Kyland does what is best for Kyland.
Hannah doesn't like Kyland in a power position.
Tiffany answers her with her toothbrush in her mouth. We hear, “mwhaha har awa awa”

All cameras move to the HOH room.

Kyland is fussing about his donkey outfit.

The plan is: Kyland will take Claire off the block, Alyssa will not use the veto. Kyland will replace Claire with Britini. He says if Alyssa uses the veto to take Britini down after he puts her up he will replace Britini with Xavier.

Kyland admits to Sarah Beth and Derek X that he did, indeed, throw the veto to Alyssa. He says he asked her if she wanted it, she told him she did. He says he did not make a deal, he assumed she knew he was doing that for her.

Sarah Beth says Alyssa has no idea and he should not say anything more about it to her or anyone.

Cameras move to kitchen area.

Big D is talking to Xavier about the game further on.
Big D says he has already committed to taking Xavier to a final two if that comes, he is regretting volunteering as a pawn for the “team”.
They start talking about the cookies too loud.  Big D demonstrates taking four cookies...Xavier takes five.
Big D says it is a family tradition passed down for generations.
Xavier, “Was your father's name Toby?”
Big D, pause,,,long pause, “You know, his middle name was Toby.
(Big D told a big fib, Joe Frazier's middle name was.... William—I googled it.-Grannysue)

Big D scats out of the kitchen, takes cookies to the HOH room,
Tiffany and Hannah continue to talk in the lavatory area.

Big D plants himself into a chair (and into the way) in the HOH room...

Sarah Beth comes into the lavatory area, Tiffany shares her lip balm with her. (putting it from tube to fingertip) It is a fancy carmex style hydrater she swears by.

Tiffany looks at Sarah Beth, very serious look  “Am I goin' on the block?” 
Sarah Beth giggles, says, “no.” giggles again.

They talk about getting teary eyed when Big D struggled to go up the ramp in the veto competition. Tiffany says she felt very emotional because she didn't want him to fail.
Tiffany says they need to play Mafia and Sarah Beth says Big D mentioned doing the Big Blue Couch.
Tiffany is laughing, she says she got tired of the cameras so she started stripping off her shirt and bra, someone came in and saw it. (sound like it was funny—Tiffany classic)
She tells them that after the HOH production asked her what was wrong, she says she growled at them, “Ieeee losssssst.” and they were startled and backed off. (more Tiffany classic stuff).

In the HOH room Big D is asking questions about the BB High Roller competition. Kyland says Big D should send Derek X out if he is HOH, Big D says he might not do that, he could use the fact that he did not put Derek X up as leverage.  Big D says it would have to be girls, and he only wants to do Sarah Beth and Alyssa.  He says Alyssa didn't use the veto on him and that's his reason for her.
(I am not sure telling Kyland that Sarah Beth is a target is a very good idea).  He tells Kyland he is worried, he got emotional in the kitchen.
Big D says he feels like he can't win 'nothing', he was feeling very discouraged on that “f***ing rope”
Kyland moves over to share his chair, tells him he wants to make him feel better. (comical and cute at the same time).
Big D says he feels a little beat, he wants to make it to the final two, he doesn't mind not winning, but he feels pretty pathetic thinking about going that far with no wins, having done nothing.
Big D says Alyssa surprised him, she knew all the answers. He tells Kyland that he should not fool himself, Alyssa beat him up to the top every single time.
Kyland tells him he helped Alyssa by telling her to check close while he checked far away.
Big D starts making fun of the donkey costume (I
t will be sorely missed when it is gone). Big D says he has had Kyland since week one, Kyland says, “who won the HOH's?” Big D says he doesn't understand why Kyland doesn't just put Derek X on the block this week.
Big D says they should get him out before he gets more money, Kyland says Derek X has already said he won't play again, and he doesn't lie, he is a competition player.
(Kyland will not budge on his position regarding Derek X)
Big D says he has no ties to the others, he has ties to Britini. He says Kyland was working with the Aces, Kyland denies. Big D continues, that they went back on their word by taking Christian out, and that is why Britini “didn't pick them first.”
Kyland says Britini has five personalities, she is the kid, the action person, he demonstrates.
Big D asks Kyland why the room is such a mess, Kyland swears he is going to clean...Big D starts grabbing things and putting them in place. 
 Kyland, “no, I'm gonna clean,...I swear....no..no don't touch that....I swear I'm gonna clean.”

Big D, “look, look at this...what is this??...are you okay? Do we need to get you some help??,,,”
All the while Big D is grabbing things up.
Big D walks around the bed, Kyland, “nono don't touch that. That's my logarithm, no I will clean.”
Big D leaves it, grumbles and lays on the only clean spot on the HOH bed.

(Such a reminder of my boys and room cleaning. It was torture for all of us.  They grew up to be fantastic people, so maybe that clean room wasn't such a deal. Learn from me youngns. It's all about who they grow up to be, not where the hide their dirty laundry.--Grannysue)

Things calm down somewhat, Kyland has also dropped onto the bed (clutching his clean donkey suit to his chest).

They hear Alyssa walking down the hallway (she is on her way to the Have Not Room...Alyssa is known for her stomping walk,,a tip toer she is not) Kyland is searching the house, they count people to see if anyone might be in the chess room,

Big D is telling Kyland about going to go into the kitchen to make hot dogs.  He changes the story somewhat. 
Big D's story: Me and Xavier came into the kitchen, Tiffany was sweeping, we told her we were going to make hot dogs. She told us to do the dishes (with attitude).
What happened:  Big D and Xavier went into the kitchen, Tiffany was sweeping, they told her they were going to make hot dogs.  Tiffany repeated “hot dogs?” They confirmed hot dogs were being made. Tiffany told them she was going to leave the kitchen, then jokingly said they could clean up their own dishes...It was more like hot dogs were something she didn't like much. 

Big D continues to mimick personalities and voices in the house.

11:20pm Big Brother Time

Big D continues to entertain Kyland with his imitations.

House guests are in the living room, general talk.

Big D tells Kyland that he has played dramatic with Britini about being put on the block this week.
Kyland says that Britini and Azah could have passed him at any time during the veto, it didn't work out for them.
Big D says Britini would not put me or you up if she won HOH.
Kyland says she would put me up
Big D says 'NOW she would put you up.”  He says Britini was excited about being able to trust Kyland, and he needs to do damage control.  Big D says whatever conversation you had about the competition, and it didn't happen.. she was hurt by it.
Kyland says he has talked to Britini, but she needs to be reasonable. He says Britini wanted him to keep her in the loop, and that is what he has done.
Big D continues to defend Britini, saying that Britini takes things to heart.
Kyland says Britini is not used to enduring hardships, her hardships are different. (assuming he is talking about his belief that Britini is in a wealthy family—irony here? He is talking to Big D, who has never had to deal with certain hardships (Derek F is listed in Forbes as being worth between 1 and 5 million dollars))

They continue to talk about house guests and their personalities and downfalls/opinions.

They also talk about the Cookout being the same as other seasons—a group of people with the same history and interests who form alliances in the game.  Kyland says their alliance is purpose driven, other alliances did not really like each other. Big D says their alliance is really no different than the alliances with jocks that eliminate the nerds and the moms,...

Big D and Kyland continue to have a deep conversation about personalities. Kyland tries to explain that people put their best foot forward, and are probably very different in the real world. He believes that Britini has several personalities and every day she shows more than one.  Big D says Britini was upset today and crying because she felt like an outcast. He says she has always felt like she was a weirdo and outcast, and she hangs out with Azah and Big D because she doesn't feel comfortable around everyone else. (Big D gets very emotional). Big D says Britini realizes she annoys people, and he told her not to give a f**k about anyone else. He said the conversation caught him off guard, and he would never want her to think she can't hang out everyone else.

Big D says he went to military school, and he was an outcast because he is gay.  He says he developed a hard exterior. He says his “hood” was the same for him. Big D says everyone in here is the same, all of them are outcasts.
Kyland agrees with that.
Big D says he tries to always tell her it is a game. 
Kyland says he asked her why she was here and Britini said it was because she had never seen anyone else like herself on the show.

Big D says the players this year are unlike players he has seen in the past.
Kyland says he has always been a nerd, he has just recently gotten “into shape'. He says his pictures don't reflect his earlier body shape.  He says he was working, sitting at desks, gained weight.  He says in high school he was in chess clubs and that kind of thing.  He says he was lucky with the parents, his grandmother was born in Mexico (maternal).  He talks about the civil rights movement in the 60's. He tells Big D that his grandfather was playing with a water fountain, when they asked him why, he told them he was waiting for the “colored water” to come. (This was in Mississippi).  Kyland says in his school there were black children in the school to “meet the numbers”, he says black children did not call him black, white children did not call him white..
(The conversation continues, and is something to watch if you have the feeds and the time.
Camera 1, check in at about 11:30pm Big Brother Time. That will allow you the time to slide into this incredibly deep conversation.)

12:02am SUNDAY MORNING Big Brother Time

(It is time for me to say goodnight to all of you. Be kind and patient; remember that we all have a story, some are tragic, some are wonderful and some are both.--goodnight darlings and hugs--Grannysue)
