Kamu wants to "call out" Jason during that tea party. I guess the incentive is to get Jason to blow up, either to give Kamu a Reason to put him on the block tomorrow, or maybe just to be a jerk. He told Dee and she liked the idea, and she said she thought Devens would too, and later she told Angela the plan. Kamu also talked with Devens but I wasn't able to listen to that convo. Jason talked with Mallory and he's mostly expecting to go up, and he seemed as okay with that as possible. Kamu told Drew and Yash "I want his game to burn to the ground" and pointed out how well Jason's repaired his standing in there after last week's noms fight. As of now, Jason will be the target and likely evictee, and Mallory will likely go if Jason wins another Block Buster, but it's days til they vote and there is some buzz about booting Mallory. There may also still be a meeting planned about bringing Angela into Red Corner and call it Blue Corner, and/or battle plans for the vets to swap out Barrett/Drew for Chuk/Haley/Kamu as their inner people, because they're not as bright, so they'll be easier to control going forward. And Dee said she wants to do a Rome parody if/when she's evicted, declaring her love for someone and give them a dip and maybe a kiss. Barrett volunteered. (Dee doesn't expect to ever be evicted, but you knew that already.) Devens talked game and future to Yash and Drew, looking like a teacher explaining some concept to his students, or maybe a spiritual leader ministering to his disciples. (He also planted tiny seeds for a very subtle anti-Taylor campaign in future, in my opinion, after learning from her M&Ms display she's a lot more aware and more game-savvy than most of them realize.)More later If you missed what came before, click 'previous Hamsterwatch episode' up top and/or use my season directory. THANK YOU SO MUCH for reading the site, following me on Bluesky, and supporting me on Patreon or Ko-fi! Day 19 - Saturday - July 25, 2026 After I cut off last night's recap, a prank was planned for Kamu by Drew plus Angela, Chuk, Dee, Haley. Drew waited in Kamu's bed with a strategically placed pillow, as the others fell into hysterics. Kamu took forever to get out of the shower but when he finally re-entered the room, feeds went to WBRB.This morning Haley and Jason were picked to play for veto with Kamu, LaLa, Lyric, Mallory, and Angela will host unless she's bumped by a guest. Devens, Drew, Yash walked the yard psst-pssting about the comp and renom options since Jason was also in the yard, and they know he's Kamu's target. Jason said he figures LaLa is the target, and that Kamu had said he wants to keep noms the same, as well as others including Haley. (Reminder, Jason is aware he's the target, or is at least aware that's a strong possibility.) Drew dropped the Toolshed name in front of Yash, again. Barrett, Drew, Yash did a pantry dance with "Ooo! Ooo! Ooo!" monkey chants. Drew joked that he's not even on the show yet, and while it is difficult for any of the rookies to get much air time unless they're making out, there have been comments from several of them about Drew being called to Diary more than most. Melody made another pre-comp phone call home (not really). And Kamu asked her if she got her period. Yep he did. Angela told Dee she thinks Devens got a power but he's not telling them in order to protect them, and Angela said she's glad of that because she doesn't want to know. (Maybe because she knows she can't keep a secret.) The two-way Haley/LaLa feud carried on, with each of them griping to people about the other, and the mostly one-way Angela feud with/about Drew also carried on. Angela told Dee she knows Drew is trying to pit Angela/Dee/Devens and Chuk/Haley/Kamu against each other, and she wants that six to meet so she can let them know. And she said she's going to "make up some shit" about Drew. The yard stayed open this morning so the comp will be held elsewhere. Feeds went to adoptable anipals a little after noon and returned exactly three hours later. Lyric won the veto, and several were in tutus. It was Bowlerina or a variation of it, they had to pick the next player(s) which caused an issue when Mallory picked LaLa, and they held on to spinning pickles. Kamu's tutu was a lovely shade of blue, but I didn't hear if he had any problems about his image because of it. Mallory and LaLa were both upset about losing and got peptalks from Melody and Jason, respectively. Haley went on and on some more to Dee and Chuk about how much she wants LaLa gone, including a pitch to get LaLa out now and they can "emotionally isolate" Jason next week. And she told Chuk to "work on Lyric" "but don't chase her around." And Haley also pitched asking Angela into Red Corner. Kamu suggested to Dee, Devens they call the Angela version Blue Corner. Dee asked Devens to explain his diamond veto again, and anti-Drew sentiment grew a little stronger with them. Angela and LaLa had a nice chat about life and other non-BB things. Well, it was nice until Angela became condescending and told LaLa to keep behaving as she has been today so people wouldn't be upset with her. (LaLa's a 58-year-old woman and all these people need to stop telling her how to behave.) Taylor pulled out M&Ms to lay out vote scenarios for Devens, who was impressed that she had "visual aids." (I wouldn't expect him to know but a lot out here acted like M&Ms were invented by Morgan. Not only did Mickey do it first last year, but it's the 28th season - 32nd if you count Celebs and OTT, and 44th if you count Canada - and using candy and snacks to plan things out or study has been done most of those seasons.) They did this in HOH, Kamu arrived, Devens left, and Taylor laid out her plus-one plan (which she called tethers) and an alliance pitch to include herself, Devens, Kamu, plus Barrett and Lyric. And they'd boot Mallory this week.A big group ended up in the downstairs bathroom. The high (low) point came when LaLa used hoodies to fashion herself a hazmat suit to do something about Chuk's nasty talon of a pinky toenail - wild Saturday night action for them and us! When she finished, he said he'd never had a normal pinky toenail as an adult, and maybe now he wouldn't go through socks so fast. Please note I spared you the closeup pic. You're welcome.
