‘Big Brother 18’ recap: ‘Who won the BattleBack and returned to the game?’

We get to see Julie Chen for the second straight night on Big Brother. She welcomes us to the first ever BattleBack competition where one of the first five evicted HG gets a second shot to play the game. We have four competitions and the first competition is between Glenn (1st evicted) and Jozea (2nd evicted). It is similar to an earlier HOH competition where they have to cross logs and put ten berries into columns. Jozea is just as cocky as ever but I still think he will beat Glenn. Jozea starts off struggling but he eventually passes Glenn to advance on while Glenn’s summer is officially done.

The second BB competition features two best friends battling each other between Jozea and Victor. It is a tennis based competition and the first one to knock down five targets will advance to the next round. I’m picking Victor to win this. This one looks a bit harder than the previous one. They both struggle early and eventually Victor pulls out to a 3-1 lead. Jozea ties it 3-3 and Victor is panicking. They are both exhausted and Victor wins it 5-3. Victor advances while Jozea’s summer is officially over. The cocky Jozea is done. Thankfully. I also think Victor might have a crush on Jozea.

The third BB competition will be Victor defending the “title” against his former Team Unicorn teammate Bronte. Bronte throws some shade at him right before. This competition will be good. They have to watch three monitors looking at photos of the HG and answer six questions correctly. It is a memory competition. I think I have to give the edge to Bronte. It seems like they are also doing a good bit of guessing. Victor’s first try is way off. Bronte’s first try is even worse. She only got one right. Victor’s second try is almost it, he only got one wrong. That buzzer must be driving them crazy. Victor pulls it out and moves on to the finals. Bronte will spend the rest of the summer becoming that mathematician.

The final competition features the reigning champ Victor against Tiffany, the most recently evicted HG. Vanessa 2.0 is ready to go. They have to search for puzzle pieces and complete the puzzle first to win the competition and the BattleBack title AND get a second chance at the $500,000 grand prize. They each have different strategies, Victor going as fast as he can and Tiffany starting from the bottom. I want to go to the Electric BB Festival. I’m thinking Tiffany might pull this out and throw the house in chaos when she comes back. Victor catches his spelling error and starts to get it together. Victor has his puzzle done now he has to get the times right. Tiffany is struggling now. Victor wins his third straight competition and is the BattleBack champion and is going back into the game. Tiffany is officially out of the game.

Julie calls the entire house into the living room. The house is stunned to hear about the BattleBack competition. The doorbell rings and #VictorIsBack. Victor is back. Julie gives us yet ANOTHER twist about clues hidden throughout the house that will lead to a secret room that could give a HG a special power.

Who will be the next HOH? How will the game change since Victor is back?

Find out Sunday night at 8pm!
