Big Brother 17 Episode 23 just wrapped up! Here’s a recap of everything that went down, and what we think you should expect to come:

WARNING: Spoilers below (duh).

The episode started off following the Power of Veto ceremony. Vanessa has just been nominated against Shelli, with the plan being to backdoor her. Vanessa tells us she’s upset to be up against Shelli, while Shelli tells us she’s been assured safety and will lay low. Becky says she’s not relaxing yet, as she knows how good a player Vanessa can be.

Vanessa goes to the backyard to confront Becky about her nomination and comments she made during the ceremony. Vanessa asks why she went back on the deal made the previous week in the HOH, and she says she was forced to give her word, and doesn’t feel like explaining herself, upon which she left Vanessa alone in the backyard.

Vanessa asks Steve for his vote. Steve tells us that as of now Vanessa doesn’t have a chance, so he can’t actually save her. Steve tells her yes, but he’ll have to cover it. Vanessa asks why, and he says so he can stay good with John and Shelli. He leaves, and Vanessa is now more worried.

Vanessa tells James that she has been put in an unfair situation, and that while he was HOH, Becky was the leak to Clay and Shelli.

James tells his alliance he is concerned, and Meg points out that if Shelli were to win HOH, she’d put up James. They decide they may have to keep Vanessa.
