'Big Brother 18' Spoilers: What Will Corey Do With His 'Bribe' & Why Is Nicole So Paranoid? [VIDEO]
Talk of what might be done with the "BB Bribe" was rampant in the Big Brother 18 house on Monday.
Head of Household: Nicole Franzel
Nominees: Michelle Meyer and Paul Abrahamian
Other houseguests: Corey Brooks, James Huling, Natalie Negrotti and Victor Arroyo
The Veto ceremony was conducted early Monday morning in the Big Brother house, with Veto winner Nicole choosing not to use the power on either of her nominees. As such, either Michelle or Paul will be evicted from the house on Thursday.
The plan continues to be that Michelle will be evicted, with Corey and Victor voting to evict her and James and Natalie presumably voting to evict Paul. This would lead to Nicole breaking the tie and she intends to evict Michelle. Nicole reaffirmed her plan to get out Michelle with her alliance of Corey, Paul and Victor, essentially telling Paul and Victor that they can relax.
Meanwhile, Corey still wasn't sure what to do about his Bribe power, which allows him to get one of his fellow houseguests to perform a task in exchange for $5,000. He and Nicole weren't sure if Victor would vote to evict Michelle so they discussed if they should bribe him to vote to keep Paul. Obviously Victor has every intention of keeping Paul, which Corey and Nicole ultimately settled on.
Corey and Nicole also talked about bribing James to throw the next HOH competition, with both agreeing he probably wouldn't do it. However, James admitted that he would in a discussion with Corey, and when he brought that news to Nicole, she was shocked. She also got paranoid that there might be something up with the upcoming vote.
Nicole was a bundle of nerves throughout the day, overthinking various scenarios that aren't actually true. She wondered why James, Natalie and Michelle weren't campaigning or even talking to Nicole and Corey, speculating that they could be working with Paul and Victor still.
Nicole's nerves were settled by the end of the day, but if this keeps up today, Wednesday and Thursday, it's possible that Nicole could tell Corey to switch his vote to evicting Paul instead.
Big Brother 18 returns with another new episode Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
