Big Brother 22 — Week 4 Veto Ceremony Results

Remember the Big Brother slogan — “Expect the unexpected?”

Well, so far, we really haven’t had much reason to do that this season. The first three weeks have pretty much been all about expecting the expected. Briefly, however, it looked like the unexpected might happen today.

When last I posted, Christmas had volunteered to go up on the block as a replacement nominee and Enzo thought he would be free from having to make any difficult decisions this week.

However, shortly after Enzo talked to Christmas, he talked to Cody and Tyler and all three of them realized that they don’t trust Dani. They feel that Dani has been running around the House, trying to make deals with everyone and they also think that Dani is the most likely to betray the three of them in the future. They also decided that Dani is an instigator, the type who creates drama in the House by talking about people behind their backs and who then expects the HoH to do her dirty work for her. Briefly, it looked as if Dani might go up as the replacement nominee and then she would have been backdoored on Thursday.

However, in the end, Enzo decided to go with his original plan. While he, Tyler, and Cody agree that Dani is going to have to go soon, they decided not to go after her this week. Instead, when Kevin used the veto on himself, Christmas was nominated as the replacement.

It really doesn’t make much sense to me, though. How much of a threat is Kaysar at this point? He only had one ally and she was voted out last week. His social game is not particularly strong and he usually gets too angry and loses focus during competitions. Dani is a much bigger threat than Kaysar but going after Dani would create drama in the House and no one seems to have the courage to do that.

So, sorry, everyone — expect the expected. Christmas and Kaysar are on the block and Kaysar is still the target. Since Christmas has been playing a fairly good social game and hasn’t made any enemies, it’s doubtful that the House will choose to backdoor her. If I was Kaysar, I would argue that the fact that Christmas is so liked makes her a threat but I don’t think any of the other houseguests are capable of thinking that strategically.

Well, hopefully, something unexpected will happen soon! For the first few weeks, everyone has been focused on getting rid of Kaysar and Janelle. If Kaysar leaves on Thursday, that means the remaining houseguests are going to have to finally start focusing on going after each other.
