About the recent episode

During the show, Moonves said that all of this season’s houseguests have been individually quarantined for over two weeks. She also told said that they were tested multiple times for the novel coronavirus, and they are all clear to play this game. After joining the house, the cast immediately took off their masks to participate in their first competition. They scanned the set for a particular item shown on the television screen and resolved a puzzle to win a spot for the next game.

Memphis Garrett, Cody Nickson, Christmas Abbott, Kevin Campbell, Nicole Franzel and Ian Terry were qualified to compete for Head of Household, the role of high-stakes safe from eviction and in charge of nominating two householders for elimination. They raced around star-shaped platforms to beat the clock as Nickson established a 22-second record in the series. Garrett arrived in second. At the end of the race, the losing contestants were asked to pick up a mystery envelope. Among them, Abbott won a cash reward of $5,000.
