Big Brother Canada 12 Episode 15 Recap: Playing It Safe

Big Brother Canada 12-Anthony and VictoriaOne of the biggest Big Brother Canada 12 episodes aired on Wednesday. It turns what could have been a normal eviction week into a crazy one. It all had to do with the Executive Veto. After a chain of rejection, Victoria saved Todd from the block. This allowed him to put up a replacement nominee, and he chose to nominate Vivek. This is who Victoria wanted to evict, so he respected her wishes. 

The entire house voted out Vivek. However, things almost didn’t play out that way. Anthony wanted Victoria to save Tola. Tola promised to nominate Vivek as requested, but Bayleigh didn’t trust that he wouldn’t nominate her. This theory seemed true because there was talk of Tola pulling a blindside.

He  could have nominated Bayleigh. Because Victoria chose to save Bayleigh and Todd by using the Executive Veto on Todd and not Tola, Anthony may not be thrilled with her decision. He got to keep Tola, one of his close allies but he lost a potential perfect minion with Vivek. This is the first major move where Victoria and Anthony’s games aren’t completely aligned.

We’ll have to see if this move causes some tension in their game relationship. Meanwhile, the show left us in the dark about who could win the Head of Household. Victoria and Anthony pretty much have the whole house on their side, so they should be safe no matter who wins HOH. But other people may need to worry.
