After the triple evictions of the live show, the heat was on tonight as the battle for Head of House blazed hotter than ever. This fight saw Erica victorious.
Since Ozo was the HoH of the past week, he couldn’t compete in tonight’s games. Kiddwaya also couldn’t participate or be chosen as deputy, because of the suspension placed on him by Biggie as punishment for violating house rules two weeks ago during Biggie’s vacation away from the house.
The Head of House challenge ran its usual course with the board game but tonight, Biggie introduced some new obstacles to the game. The games kicked off with a three-way tie between Neo, Vee and Prince on step 9. Then Erica came tearing through all the way to step 29. At a point, it seemed like Laycon had a chance at beating Erica, but sadly he didn’t make it.
At the end of the gruelling games, Erica became the Head of the House for this week. She had one minute to pick a deputy and she nominated Prince, who happily accepted. For the guest choice, Biggie swiftly told her that she couldn’t pick Kiddwaya as his suspension extends to all HoH benefits, including guest opportunities for the next two weeks.
Erica then chose Trikytee as her guest, while Prince chose Dorathy. Erica and Prince are exempt from evictions this week, and we can’t wait to see how she fares for her second term as the Head of House.
