It’s a grueling endurance competition, easily the toughest of the season so far.
There’s a little more strategy going on here than usual.
Da’Vonne is the first to have her own idea about how to use this challenge.

She drops out after only 15 minutes and musters some fake tears for her audience of houseguests.
He must feel pretty secure in his position.
Tyler falls next, which is all Dani wanted.
So, it all comes down to who’s able to throw the competition withoutlookinglike they threw it.
She’s unpredictable enough that she might venture to shake things up.
Thus, the conversations begin.
Da’Vonne immediately goes to Dani to verify she’s safe, and Dani assures her that she is.
She’s not sure who to put up though, and asks what Da’Vonne would do.
She says she’d put up Christmas as a pawn, but go after Tyler.
Tyler isn’t in the dark here.
He knows that he wronged Dani and that he’s on thin ice with her.
So, he tries to just be honest.
With Tyler, honesty is more a strategy than it is a humbling moment.
His whole thing is trying to be charming enough that people don’t want to target him.
He did the same thing with Da’Vonne and Bayeligh last week.
Dani sees right through it.
As has been the case this season, that’s not surprising!
And Dani also likes Kevin a lot and has some connection with him.
That’s it for the HOH and the nominations!
