Thursday’s episode of Big Brother 24 brought about an unexpected turn to a would-have-been predictable climax as a new twist is introduced ahead of next week’s episode. This corny twist could threaten the entire Leftovers alliance, and it is safe to say no one saw this coming.
Ahead of the episode, viewers across the world anticipated Daniel Durston’s eviction, championed by the Leftovers alliance. The elimination round went as predicted, with Daniel shown the backdoor despite putting on a strong fight during the week to secure his place against fellow houseguest Kyle.
However, host Julie Chen Moonves made the celebration of Daniel’s elimination short-lived by announcing an unexpected twist in the game. This time, not even the Leftovers are safe from the claws of eviction come elimination night.
Big Brother 24 Elimination Twist
In Thursday’s episode, Julie revealed plans to introduce a twist that divides the contestants into two separate groups of five. These groups would play two simultaneous games, culminating in a double eviction. she shared:
While the houseguests remain in the dark about this twist, set to commence after the new HoH tenure, Big Brother 24 viewers are unsatisfied with the news. Most believe the showrunners introduced the double elimination twist as a means to break off the Leftovers alliance, which has greatly stirred the dynamics within the house since the group’s creation.
A Replacement For The Festie Bestie?
The episode also saw Big Brother host Julie break it to the contestants that the Festie Bestie twist was over. By implication, each houseguest would stand alone for the remaining phase of the competition. The Big Brother 24 contestants had little time to reminisce on this news before commencing the HoH competition, which saw them hold on to a wall for long hours, wearing tin hats.
At the end of the endurance test, Taylor Hale emerged as the new Head of Household following Michael Bruner’s reign. This would be the first time the 26-year-old would snag the mantle after enduring weeks of bullying from other houseguests. Joining the Leftovers alliance certainly worked in Taylor’s favor, as she has since experienced a more favorable stay.
