Fans react to Big Brother contestant Turner targeting fellow Leftovers Alliance member Joseph
This week, Turner struggled to find a way to keep himself safe in the competition. He is a member of the Dyre Fest, consisting of Alyssa, Joseph Kyle, and Terrance (HoH). After the HoH nominated him and Joseph for elimination, Turner decided to compromise his loyalty to the Leftovers Alliance. To secure his place in the competition, he collaborated with Alyssa and Kyle to blindside Joseph into elimination.
Fans were upset at Turner's decision to betray his close ally, despite Joseph remaining loyal to the alliance. They took to social media to express their feelings:
A quick recap of the previous episode of Big Brother
After Indy's elimination and the house getting divided into two groups in a big twist, the game completely changed course. The contestants now had to plan a whole new strategy to keep themselves and their alliances safe. The two Heads of Household (HoH) also had to pick their team members. One team would live inside the house, and the other would live in the backyard.
Michael became the HoH for Big Brochella and picked Jasmine, Brittany, Taylor, and Monte. As the HoH for Dyre Fest, Terrance chose Turner, Alyssa, Joseph, and Kyle.
Kyle was once again stuck between choosing Alyssa or going against the Leftovers Alliance, but realized that he would have to "show his cards either way." Terrance, meanwhile, assured Turner and Alyssa that he would keep them safe and told them he planned to target Kyle and Joseph.
Jasmine was the first to attempt to ensure her safety in the game with Michael, and she used the excuse of it being her birthday week. The latter mentioned that he was planning to backdoor Monte, but he was secretly planning to target Jasmine for eviction. Jasmine realized that he wouldn't put Brittany on the block, leaving either her or Taylor at risk of elimination along with Monte.
Before announcing his nominations, Dyre Fest HoH Terrance was advised by Turner to put Kyle and Alyssa up on the block, using their showmance as an excuse. However, Terrance decided against it since his original target was Joseph. While speaking to Joseph, he hinted that he was planning on targeting Kyle and Alyssa, but Joseph found this hard to believe.
Big Brother contestant Kyle decided to expose the Leftovers Alliance to Alyssa in an effort to keep both of them safe this week. He also suggested that they team up with Michael, Brittany, and Terrance to take out Joseph, Turner, and Monte. Kyle also tried his luck with Terrace, telling the HoH about the alliance.
Terrance was influenced by Kyle's decision and decided to flip the game to protect Kyle and Alyssa. Michael nominated Monte and Jasmine after Monte volunteered to go as a pawn, while Terrance shocked his team members by nominating Joseph and Turner for eviction on Big Brother.
Season 24 of Big Brother has become more engaging after a number of unexpected twists and turns. However, the series is also being criticized by viewers for its unfair portrayal of a few contestants.
Viewers will have to stay tuned in to see what's in store for them this week. Readers can keep watching Big Brother on CBS.
