It was a wacky Sunday in the Big Brother 16 house as Team America took on their mission of hiding items from the HG and forming a neighborhood watch. And in the middle of all that madness, Zach found out he’s the target this week. Find out what else happened on the Big Brother Feeds in the house yesterday.
Big Brother 16 Live Feed Highlights – Sunday, August 17, 2014:
10:00 AM BBT – Donny is up but the rest of the HGs are sleeping.
12:30 PM BBT – Big Brother announces photo booth time. Only Donny and Christine are awake.
2:52 PM BBT – Derrick tells Frankie he has to do what is good for his game. Frankie says he’s doing what is best for the group and that’s using the veto and putting up Zach.
3:23 PM BBT – Frankie tells Caleb he told Cody he’s using the veto on Caleb. Frankie says “even though you already told him.” Frankie isn’t very happy Caleb told him before he could it it himself.
3:58 PM BBT – Frankie tells Derrick they can blame Zach for the missing items that will come up in their Team America mission. “We can use him one last time,” Frankie says disgustingly.
4:33 PM BBT – Team America’s mission is under way. Donny snatched Cody’s hat.
5:18 PM BBT – Cody has noticed his hat is missing.
5:40 PM BBT – Everyone is noticing things are missing. Zach says maybe there is a saboteur among them.
5:55 PM BBT – It doesn’t take long for all the missing items blame to be placed on Zach.
6:00 PM BBT – Caleb finds that his cowboy boots are missing. More saboteur talk ensues.
6:05 PM BBT – Frankie and Derrick mention a neighborhood watch (as that’s part of the mission).
6:06 PM BBT – Zach’s Gators shirt is also missing.
6:15 PM BBT – Everyone is blaming Zach. He’s blaming Victoria.
6:30 PM BBT – Frankie accuses Zach of being a saboteur in front of everyone. Zach says he wishes he was the saboteur.
7:12 PM BBT – Zach tells Caleb he’s really not the saboteur.
7:25 PM BBT – Everyone really believes that Zach is the saboteur.
7:55 PM BBT – Zach stole the cue ball from the pool table and gets caught trying to hide it. Now everyone really does think Zach stole and hid all the items.
8:06 PM BBT – Cody found the items hidden under the trash bag in the garbage can.
8:47 PM BBT – Zach asks Frankie if he’s still putting Victoria up. Frankie can’t look him in the eyes and is acting weird. Zach is getting nervous.
8:55 PM BBT – Zach told Donny he thinks he’s going home this week. Donny doesn’t tell him he knows.
8:59 PM BBT – Zach tells Donny he just has a feeling he’s going home. He says if he’s up against Cody, he doesn’t stand a chance.
9:32 PM BBT – Caleb tells Zach he’d put him up if he was Frankie.
10:26 PM BB – Zach tells Frankie that it would be stupid to not send him home. But Zach says “if you do not put me on the block and send Victroia home, I will never put you up or vote you out.” Frankie says, if it were just me, I would take it, but everyone else wants you out.
10:34 PM BBT – Derrick comes in and Frankie says we had the conversation. Derrick is like huh? Frankie says THE conversation. He knows he’s going home.
10:37 PM BBT – Frankie tells Zach to win his spot back in the game if there’s a returning player. Zach says he doesn’t think there is one.
10:45 PM BBT – Zach is handling him going home well. He still tells Derrick he might cause some trouble before heading out. He also tells Derrick he wants him to win and will vote for him over anyone in the final two.
11:00 PM BBT – The neighborhood watch program continues. No one is allowed to be alone.
11:45 PM BBT – Derrick and Cody aren’t happy that Frankie told Zach he was going home without them in the room. They suspect Caleb and Frankie did it that to blame them.
12:40 AM BBT – Caleb says he heard an announcement of “Zach, you alright?” and doesn’t know what it meant.
1:00 AM BBT- Caleb and Cody trying to figure out who took the items. Caleb thinks maybe it was Victoria but goes back to suggesting Zach makes sense with what he’s done.
2:15 AM BBT – Frankie telling Cody about his sister and their careers, says he helped create her as a star.
2:45 AM BBT – Caleb and Derrick have the night shift for the Team America mission and are on patrol.
So Zach knows he’s going up, which is odd, since we all thought the HOH wasn’t allowed to tell the nominees they’re going up, but it seems like Big Brother picks and chooses when to enforce rules.

Though I’m not a fan of Frankie’s personality at all, I really have to hand it to him, Derrick, and Donny how they managed to successfully convince the house that Zach is a saboteur. I know that we’re told over and over again by this site to hate Frankie and most of the readers of this site obey obediently and raise their pitch forks every chance they get but Zach put this on himself by being seen as such a loose cannon and attention seeking by his houseguests. I mean, Zach stole the cue ball from the pool table and was caught for goodness sake. DURING A THEFT PATROL WHILE HE WAS THE NUMBER 1 SUSPECT. How stupid can you get? And what do you expect Team America to do to cover their butts? Not try to pin it on Zach? Get outta here. I think Team America is brilliant for using Zach’s irrationality and mood swings for their benefit and they’d be stupid not to. You can trash talk them all you want. They’re doing the smart thing and it’s exactly what you would do in their position if you had any sense.
Matthew, you use words like “disgustingly” to describe Frankie’s manipulation of Zach but why would they trust him when Zach has betrayed the detonators so many times by telling the other side of the house their secrets? Not to mention the ONE time Zach was HoH he decided to nominate their own instead of the real threats to the alliance. Zach was bad alliance member, plain and simple. You can’t blame Frankie for wanting to finally get rid of such a lightning rod for angry outbursts or mood swings that have and will continue to put his game in jeopardy.
It’s a GAME for goodness sake… and it’s always been played the very same way! It isn’t “Christian Big Brother”…lying, duplicity and creating drama and/or pandemonium is key… Derrick is the one who’s playing it classically and while Donny thinks he knows something… he only suspects…this game truly is Derrick’s to lose… let’s see if he can continue to manipulate them all…
Not sure what this is in comment to, but I’m not sure anyone would disagree with it.
you watch the scene? Frankie was saying some pretty harsh things about zach, also earlier in the day frankie was asking zach are you sure your not gay? Seems to me frankie is putting zach up almost to spite him. Sure zach has blabbed a lot, but he has been loyal enough except for christine. At this point everyone has kind of blabbed. Also really don’t like frankie for his completley over the top personality and his desperate need for attention. Also i don’t enjoy watching him eat. Also frankie getting out zach is same as christine in getting out a close ally and helping write out a 500,000 check for derrick
I don’t like Frankie because likes himself tooooo much and because he always acts for the cameras. Send Frankie home.
You don’t like Frankie because he likes himself too much? Sooo, you only like yourself a little bit? Gotcha. .
if you actually give some thought to what he means, you’ll realize he was saying he’s tired of Frankie because Frankie talks as though he’s not vulnerable to eviction; that he is in control. It’s old. And your comment didn’t make sense.
Thanks for getting what I said.
No, no. He said he doesn’t like Frankie because he likes himself toooo much. Don’t make him sound smarter than he actually is. My comment makes perfect sense. But thanks for trying!
Did you also notice fakies desperate need for attention has him telling Cody he made his sister a star. I mean wouldn’t it be more like she became a star because of her talent. Tired of Frankie thinking he is all that. Maybe at most he helped his sister get noticed if you believe what he says
Christine is clueless to Derrick’s manipulation…I despise the comment of “disgusting” coming from her mouth when she, (who calls it “flirting” with Cody) allows Cody to lie on top of her, who’s a married woman!
But Zach hasn’t been loyal. The one HoH he got he put up alliance members instead of the real threats to his fellow alliance members. He also has spilled Derrick’s and Cody’s secrets to other houseguests multiple times just for the fun of it because his mood changes on a whim. I get it. He’s fun to watch. But this guy is not the victim of injustice this week like people are saying he is. He even stole the cue ball right after people accused him of being a saboteur. He did this to himself.
Oh stop. They already had Zach completely locked for eviction. Frankie took one last chance to stomp all over him for personal satisfaction & to make himself look better. It changed nothing.
As for Zach being the bad alliance member, Frankie has spent weeks and weeks working on the HGs to want Zach out and started that game well before Zach.
The point is obviously to get everyone else out before they get you, but Frankie has seemed to enjoy being especially harsh to Zach.
And as for us telling you who to hate, oh please. We express our own opinions & readers are welcome to share theirs too. We don’t tell anyone how to think, just what we think. That’s the point.
it’s almost like Frankie’s trying to win the game by bettering his stance with the remaining houseguests…
Nah that can’t be it… Frankie is just a ‘disgusting’ person…
I think I came off a little strong in my original post and for that I apologize. I think this site is THE best for Big Brother info and that’s because of you guys, not in spite of you guys. While I still think that most of the viewer’s (deserved) hatred of Frankie clouds their judgment on the game, I didn’t mean to accuse you guys of anything that put you in a bad position and I realize I did exactly that. I’m just a lowly internet comment board commenter. No one should care what I have to say, yourself included. Keep doing what you’re doing. You’ve made this season extremely enjoyable for lots of Big Brother fans, including myself.
The TA members are playing it smart. And Zach is not playing a smart game. I like him, he’s entertaining, but he does such dumb things! That said, right now (assuming he’s evicted) I want him to return to the house–Nicole would be my second choice. As for Frankie wanting to get rid of Zach, I think Frankie is probably Zach’s #1 target. He can’t be trusted. In Frankie’s place, I’d want him out too.
To be honest, it really isn’t that hard. Just say, “Hey, I think it was Zach.” He’s by far the most likely, and he enjoys being a villain so he would embrace it the way he embraced Amanda as his cousin.
And most people never needed to be told to hate Frankie. He is incredibly obnoxious with everything he says and does, and is bad at this game.
I agree with you! So doesn’t it make you roll your eyes when Matthew uses words like “disgustingly” to describe Team America’s manipulation of Zach? Why WOULDN’T they choose him to help them with their missions?
IMO most fans don’t like Frankie because he’s disgusting, and he’s the first player on there who obviously doesn’t need the money. If you are going to have celebrities’ on a show they should all be. Many game shows have them where they are playing for their favorite charity. Frankie is way over the top since he said who he is and never misses a chance to brag. People who live payday to payday don’t like hearing that. Zach and Donny are fan favorites and they both have been his targets. BBN didn’t tell me to like Donny I already liked him just from reading his bio and seeing his interview. Most of the fans on this site LOVE having are disagreements about what others think and we go back and forth. If you don’t like the site don’t visit. We won’t miss you.
I love this site, though! My point was that peoples’ opinions of certain houseguests cloud their ability to think rationally about the game. Like how you wrote a whole paragraph about how Frankie is rich and he brags a lot but you say nothing about how brilliantly he has been able to manipulate Zach, especially this week. I get it. Frankie is super annoying and I would HATE to live with him, having ti constantly stroke his ego. But that doesn’t mean I have to ignore good gameplay when I see it. Like him or not, Frankie played a good game this week. And as Big Brother fans, that’s what I love to see.
And Frankie is not rich, his sister is. Does he benefit? Probably, but none of you really know that for sure. You know what happens when you assume!
Why am I not surprised to he’s Frankie giving himself some of the credit for his sister becoming a superstar?
*Surprised to “hear” not he’s.
He may have had some connections in the business to jumpstart her career…that I can believe, but himself personally…no way! It takes a collective effort to bring it to light! She still has to have the talent to pull it off.
Another unbiased piece of writing! Great work, BBN!!! /s
Why in the world would you expect “unbiased” on a fan site? Fans have opinions. You do, don’t you? How incredibly boring if every opinion was removed from every fan site & every fan’s comments on them.
The best part about your “unbiased” posts are that they are telling the truth. Frankie just keeps throwing his alleged best friend under the bus at every turn and seems to get some weird satisfaction from doing so. I don’t think disliking that action / attitude is biased – it’s normal. Keep up the good work!
I happen to LOVE your post and I’m pretty sure I have disagreed with on some post.
I enjoy your posts wether or not they might be a little biased to your opinion. After all like you said we all have them and I can respect someone’s opinion even if it doesn’t agree with mine. I appreciate them as I don’t have the live feeds and it is clear in your posts as to what are facts and what are opinions. Also if you aren’t 100% sure of your facts you state so example the zing bot zings you clearly said that the zings were put together to the best of your ability based off the house guests talking after the comp
I love your summaries..they provide insight in forming my own opinion!!!
This makes me worry because if Zach is being adult, he might come back and want to work with the Detonators again. There go my dreams of Zonny. I just want the person who comes back to be in Donny’s corner.
So do I! He’s basically been all alone in the house, along with Victoria, since Nicole and Hayden left.
Frankie has planted one final knife in Zack’s back. I do hope Zack gets back in the game to get revenge. Frankie plays a great social game, but is a snake in the grass.
And Derrick isn’t by planting seeds in others’ ears this whole season???
Derrick hasn’t pretended to be Zach’s best friend. There is a difference AND if you go back and objectively look, Frankie has used Zach as the butt of jokes and the person to point fingers at in blame all season long.
I know…but he hasn’t pretended to be anyone’s friend…just holds a civil tongue while everyone else backstabs each other when he’s been the one controlling their plays to some extent. Can’t wait to see what everyone thinks after they find out he’s been using his cop skills without revealing who he really is.
Zach needs to ask Caleb & Christine what # they are playing for. He should ask if they are playing for 5th place or 1st place. I wish he was smart enough to plant the seeds of doubt in their heads. Caleb may already mulling over what Zach told him about the alliance he (Caleb) is not a part of. Then too I hope for a Zach attack when he upsets the entire house.
Derrick has made sure they all know how desperately he needs the money. Zach said it last night. They feel sorry for Derrick. Derrick maybe underpaid, but he’s making way more than anyone else, so he should be disqualified like Frankie. Vic is willing for second place, Cody too. That is disgusting! Donny had to resign to be on the show. Derrick has not one thought of guilt. Stop tearing up Frankie unless you tear up the liar. Christine messing with Cody, Derrick’s messing with Vic, he just does it under the covers every night. Frankie is so mean, well, I for one was really upset when Donny told Derrick he didn’t want to go on the block again, Donny wanted his dignity back. Derrick just sat there lying in Donny’s face. Derrick was always putting him up. He has played with all of their feelings. I get the part about this being a Frankie hate page. Read it all back. Every complaint about Frankie goes triple with Derrick. Frankie however is gay. Frankie has a famous sister. Frankie is not rich but lives well, so does Derrick. Frankie lied about who he was, so did Derrick. It’s a game, with people from all walks. I think people want to see the same yard stick used to measure everyone instead of just Frankie.
If Donny doesn’t win, I hope it is Victoria (or whoever returns). I don’t mind Derrick winning because he is playing a good game.
Frankie is playing Derrick’s game, even when Derrick told him to do what is best for his/Frankie’s game. I don’t see how his constant sabotaging and putting Zach up is good for his game. For now, Zach is his closest ally.
Zach needs to call a house meeting and lay it all out on the table. Let Caleb know the BS alliance was BS and done! Tell about the Detonators and how he/Caleb wasn’t even a thought to join that alliance. Let Victoria know she is only a protected pawn for Derrick (if Zach realize…). Donny already knows that they all want him out. Christine just want to be in the game to cuddle with Cody because she is/will be the first to go in the Detonators….
Zach told Caleb about the Detonators again last night (Caleb had already heard it from Nicole) and Caleb brushed it off. I think Caleb is playing the game and has everybody (including all of us) fooled. Wouldn’t that be something. Anyway Caleb knows, what he does with it is anybody’s guess. I think production wants Derrick, Frankie and Donny in the F3.
Zach didn’t tell Caleb that the BS is BS because he knows that Frankie will need another ally to help him stay in case Derrick or Cody should push forward for the win rather than him!
Derrick’s already got the people he’s stabbing in the back ready to write him a check. Brilliant.
WTG Dan..I mean Derrick..LOL
It’s just sad this season how dumb this group is.Really makes me just want it to be over.
Would be interesting to know the time stamp of Christine’s DR confession about using “flirtation” with Cody, as a strategy to get her further into the game, if it was before or after the Zinbot???
I think right before because someone mentioned Zingbot might say something about her actions.
I bet it was after! They rush edited the dr into the eposoide. If by chance it is her strategy its only partial bc she cant get enough of cody
It looks like it happened after Zingbot in order to cover her butt from what Zingbot said about Cody and her! :-)
When Zach was hugging Frankie in the kitchen and said “I love you.” They go through their fake roles of pretending to like each other. It is weird how Zach is acting. Frankie always making nasty remarks. Sick!
This years BB is so boring. Not many followers.
So totally agree with you PK. This years BB is beyond boring. If they are telling the truth, then the only one who is left that really could use the money is Donny. Derrick has been playing the puppet master from the word go. He may need the money, but I don’t think he has done anything to deserve it. :(
Well, if you believe anything that comes out of Christine’s mouth .. she also needs the $$$ … she mentioned during a BBAD episode last week, either talking to Nicole or Donny, I think (???) that she had “Zero” credit rating and could not even get a loan, as neither her nor her husband had a credit card, and not able to buy a car, etc … And, just prior to BB, she had finally acquired a credit card (or alike ??) and started using it to buy daily essentials instead of paying by cash, and just pay off the balance and establish a credit score .. and, once hers is created, then the plan was to do the same for her husband …
I can’t help it, I just don’t trust anything Christine says. She just is so disgusting with the way she acts around Cody. It is like they are more then just friends. I don’t know, just my opinion. I could be wrong, I am just sick of watching those two.
Did anyone else catch the look of Frankie’s face, when Caleb grabber a photo of her duirng the “Who’ wants to see my HOH Room” time ..and, went gagga over her, with Frankie commenting in fear that she may be the object of his next obsession ?? Ha !!!
Would that be totally awesome, as Caleb’s revenge on Frankie, to hook up with her in the Finale Show ?? She is, after, single, at the moment, according to the last gossip column .. Ha !!! :)
And, Frankie did sort-a-kinda, suggest to Caleb that he could arrange a duet with her on her next album … they have become BFF’s afterall
:)
During BBAD this morning (err, last night) Caleb was telling Zach that the Beast Mode Cowboy, or whatever, already made it to Big Brother and into the Jury House, and if it was time to go, for the Beast Mode Cowboy, it was time to go and, no heart feelings … this is when he was attempting to bring down Zach from jumping off the roof, and blowing up the entire house with a Zach Attack, once he was basically informed that he would the renom and more than likely to be leaving this week …
Caleb was saying how he has played a strong game, loyal and honourable game and did not lie and went on the block 3x for his BS Alliance .. and, already made it big and famous and won, as a result .. and, if he was in Zach’s position, he would do the same thing as Nicole last week, once she realized that her days were numbered in the House …. and, just relax and enjoy the final few days …
So, let’s see how he reacts if/when it happens to him in a week or two … Ha !!! :)
He talks a good talk when he’s not in the hot seat, for sure! :-)
Victoria ask Christine if she thought there would be a “buyback” taking place. Christine said she hope not cause a “buyback” is scary. I have never heard the term “BUYBACK” … Can somebody tell me what a “buyback” is??
I just assumed she was referring to a returning HG twist ??
They pay a HG a certain stipend if they win the return to play again!
Just a thought…what if Victoria who is feeling poorly had to be taken out of the game today?? Where would that leave/affect the nominations?? I DON’T WANT Victoria to get sick but I was just wondering….
If Victoria is not a fan of the show and is ignorant to events and happenings how does she know about “buybacks” ???? I say again Victoria is not as stupid and inept as she appears.
