The season 27 household attempted to once again target Keanu Soto however, their plan backfired when he narrowly escaped elimination for the fourth week in a row.
This week, Vince Panaro, Zach Cornell, and controversial Houseguest Keanu were put up on the chopping block by the most recent Head of Household, Ava Pearl.
Vince and Zach have described each other as their “best friends” in the house – making the votes even more high stakes.
Their allyship has fallen apart after weeks of Vince playing all sides and Keanu continuing to win challenge after challenge.
While the nominees have changed each week following the Power of Veto meeting, this week’s winner, Katherine Woodman, chose not to use it.
This meant that Ava’s nominations remained the same, and the trio had to compete in the Blockbuster competition on Thursday.
Keanu, who has been a target since the beginning of season 27, has proven himself to be a challenge beast and previously won multiple vetoes.
Just like in the weeks past, Keanu was able to win the Blockbuster challenge and dodged elimination yet again.

The “villain” played hard as the contestants made it clear he was once again the target for eviction this week.
During a block-building challenge, Keanu came out on top – leaving elimination between Vince and a devastated Zach.
It then came down to the vote – and each player highly struggled with making their decision as many of them were in an alliance with both Vince and Zach.
While the decision was not unanimous, it was Zach who was ultimately sent packing.
The move was even more devastating for Zach as his elimination was completely preventable.
Zach was gifted a secret power earlier in the season where he could buy his safety from eviction for $10,000.
Using $10,000 from a prize he won earlier this season, Zach could use the cash to buy his immunity for the week at any time before the start of jury.
If he had used it this week, he would have lived to see another day.
However, he chose to keep it in his pocket and assumed he was safe for the week.
His asumption was wrong and after a 8-2 vote, a shocked and heartbroken Zach was sent packing.
