Jury Fight Erupts as 'Big Brother 28' Feeds Reveal Final HOH

Outlets report a Melody-Angela jury house blowup and live-feed spoilers revealing Taylor and Devens advancing to the final HOH round.

Sunday's final regular episode before the "Big Brother 28" finale ended on a cliffhanger, with CBS cutting away before revealing who won Part 1 of the Final Head of Household competition, according to the Bergen Record. The Final 3 — Drew Campbell, Taylor Brown and Rick Devens — competed in a Benjamin Franklin-themed endurance challenge called "Shock & Roll," balancing on moving logs while holding kite poles in a downpour, dressed in colonial-era costumes. The episode also featured the traditional Final 3 season retrospective, revisiting moments like Yash Patel's "Book of Yash" commentary, Mallory Aurichio's "Pipe Queen" segment, and a prank in which houseguests hid in Drew's HOH shower before giving themselves away. Live-feed spoilers later revealed the winner that CBS withheld on air.

According to the Bergen Record, live-feed spoilers revealed that Taylor Brown won Part 1 of the Final HOH, securing her spot in Part 3 and keeping her one competition away from controlling the season's final eviction. The win was especially significant because it came right after Drew Campbell chose to evict Dee Valladares and advance to the Final 3. CBS did not reveal the Part 2 winner on Sunday's episode either, but the Bergen Record reports that live-feed spoilers showed Rick Devens winning Part 2. That sets up a Taylor-vs.-Devens showdown in Part 3 during the finale, with Drew eliminated from contention for the final HOH title and forced to wait as the remaining two battle for power.

The episode's other major drama unfolded at the jury house, where Melody Morris arrived after her eviction and reunited with Yash Patel, LaTrice "Lala" Verrett, Angela Murray and Barrett Pfeiffer, per the Bergen Record. When Lala asked Melody to explain her strategy, Angela followed up by asking what Melody believed her game actually was. Melody responded that she had played a strong social game, but Angela disagreed, arguing Melody had been more of a "coaster" than an active strategist. That remark sparked a heated exchange between the two women as they defended their respective games. Yahoo reports the jury is probably eager to get to finale night, given the fight between Angela and Melody in their house.

The "Big Brother 28" finale airs Wednesday, October 1, and will determine the season's winner, according to the Bergen Record. The winner of Part 3 becomes the final Head of Household, chooses who joins them in the Final 2, and casts the season's final eviction vote before the jury decides. Yahoo's analysis suggests Rick Devens is favored to win in any Final Two situation, but questions who comes out on top between Taylor and Drew if Devens is taken out. Yahoo argues that if Taylor wins Final HOH and evicts Devens — the odds-on favorite — that could be a résumé-defining move, especially combined with her Final Four HOH win, though Yahoo believes she would need Melody and Barrett to break her way, along with Lala and Yash, to pull off the upset. America's Favorite Houseguest will also be revealed live.
