Big Brother (Season 3)

Big Brother 3, was the third series of the 2020 rebooted Big Brother fanfic. The season began in April, 2020 and concluded that same month. The series revolved around a group of strangers living in a custom built house with no contact with the outside world. Each week, the housemates are required to nominate two people for eviction. The three or more people with the most votes were nominated to leave the house. The viewers then decided which of the nominees should leave, with the selected person leaving during a live show. This process continued until only five housemates remained, at which time the public voted for which of them should win the £100,000 prize.

This season marked the first to not feature any premature exits either in the form of a voluntary exit (walk) or forced removal (ejection). It also was the first to feature 20 housemates entering on Day 1, with no late arrivals coming throughout the 93 day run.

After 93 Days, Aleks Ostapchuk was crowned the winner of the series with 43% of the final vote, with Imelia Wood as the runner-up after receiving 22%.

Summary
On Day 1, Amy, Anastasie, Darius, Ethan, Justin, Minnie, Mthunzi, Sam, Silas and Zach enter the 'Topdog House'. Aleks, Ana, Cornelius, Dawn, Delilah, Imelia, Isaac, Rhys, Tabitha and Will enter the 'Underdog House'. Both houses are identical, split only by a glass panel that has been disguised as a mirror. Both houses are unaware of the others existence.

In the Topdog House, Justin and Zach talk during the welcome drinks and seem to get along well. Justin (who is bisexual) flirts openly with attractive housemate Zach, later admitting that he finds him attractive. Anastasie takes charge of pouring the drinks along with fellow mature housemate Silas. The two bond well whilst taking control and are soon joined by Amy and Zach. Anastasie compliments the pair on their look, telling them that they'd make beautiful children together. Sam seems a bit odd during the welcome meeting and walks around the house on her own, saying she's trying to feel the energy of the room. Silas and Minnie laugh about this together and label her as "the crazy one". Amy, Mthunzi and Zach talk about Silas, who introduced himself to the group as a successful country-music star. They giggle amongst themselves when they admit they've never heard of him. Amy and Zach seem to be flirting with one another frequently.

Meanwhile, in the Underdog House, Dawn takes charge of pouring the drinks. Aleks speaks to her, and she tells him straight away that she gets a good vibe off him. She asks Aleks about his family, causing him to become emotional (as his mother suffers from MS). Dawn comforts Aleks before he gets too upset, keeping a positive vibe in the room. Cornelius and Imelia join them, and the four are able to move onto a new topic. Delilah and Cornelius are both the most social during the first night, making sure everybody feels welcome and comfortable. Alternatively, Aleks seems to be struggling already due to the reminder of his home situation. He spends time sitting by himself, which causes a few to label him anti-social, and note that he's bringing a bad energy to the room.

On Day 2 (Topdog House), Anastasie and Mthunzi sit in the living area, commenting that the house feels smaller than usual. Anastasie tells Mthunzi that she's stunning, and that she'd love for her to get back into modelling post-season. She then tells Mthunzi to contact her after they leave the house. Throughout the next few days, Mthunzi rubs people in the house the wrong way due to her demanding personality, which she blames on cultural differences and her background as Zulu royalty. Alternatively, Amy's positive energy and helpfulness pleases the whole house, easily making her the most liked person in the house. Sam does yoga in the garden and is joined by fellow enthusiast Anastasie. They talk about Justin, saying that he's yet to clean or cook anything, and find him lazy and spoilt. Silas privately pulls Mthunzi to one side to speak about her behaviour, saying he wants her to integrate more with the rest of the house. She agrees to try harder to fit in, and is taught by Silas how to make scrambled eggs. Mthunzi and Silas continue bonding throughout the day, and are joined by Zach as they all begin a workout. Mthunzi becomes the third housemate to say that she finds Zach attractive (after Justin and Amy). On Day 7, the house nominates for the first time. Darius, Justin and Mthunzi receive the most nominations, and face the eviction.

On Day 2 (Underdog House), Ana, Imelia and Isaac bond and have 'girls talk'. They discuss what they think of the boys in the house. Ana says they're handsome but she feels they're all too young for her and not manly enough. Imelia says that she finds quirky-housemate Cornelius attractive in a bizarre way. Tabitha and Will hang out in the smoking area, where they become oddly flirtatious. Will compliments Tabitha's breasts after she points out that they're struggling to stay in her dress. Tabitha doesn't seem to care of acknowledge that Will is married with children outside the house. During their conversation, Tabitha tells Will not to nominate her so he can enjoy her being in the house. Big Brother publicises this conversation to the house due to the rule break, and turns off the hot water for 24 hours. Imelia says to Big Brother that she's disgusted by the conversation (the flirtatious nature of it), saying how Will is married and should be ashamed. Tabitha later tells Cornelius that she didn't mean to get the house in trouble. He tells her to not do it again, and that he'd have expected rule breaking from someone like Aleks over her. Tabitha then calls Aleks odd due to his introverted personality, saying he has a bad attitude. On Day 7, the house nominate for the first time. Aleks and Tabitha receive the most nominations and face the first eviction.

In the latter half of the week (Topdog House), Darius speculates that he's nominated due to being quieter and having a 'resting bitch face'. Ethan and Minnie both talk about finding it difficult to adjust to life inside the house away from their social media. Silas encourages them both to stick with it, telling them that the experience will be good for their prospective careers. He ends up singing the house a song, and everyone joins in with the singing. Zach does a strip tease during the song due to drinking, which everybody goes wild for.

In the latter half of the week (Underdog House), Dawn is cleaning around the 'mirror' (dividing the houses) and hears faint singing (Silas in the other house). Due to hearing multiple voices, Dawn becomes frightened and thinks it is ghostly or demonic voices. She prays to herself for the release of the trapped spirits from earth. Delilah does her makeup after feeling ugly inside the house. Dawn helps her with it, telling Delilah that she's "a beauty". Imelia comes and joins them and the three have a bonding moment in the girls bedroom. Dawn tells them despite both being beautiful she's not letting her "house daughters" fool around with any of the boys, joking that she's got her eye on anyone doing funny business. Despite the 'warning', Imelia spends time under a blanket outside cuddling with Cornelius. She says she likes how gentle his personality is. Cornelius seems nervous, especially after admitting he's not had a proper relationship. Later on, Ana, Cornelius and Tabitha talk inside. Tabitha says she's nervous about the first eviction and that she thinks Aleks deserves to be evicted first. Cornelius says he doesn't want either of them to be evicted, whilst Ana keeps quiet as she nominated both Aleks and Tabitha. Isaac asks Imelia for details about her time with Cornelius, not believing that they just "cuddled". Isaac then makes an inappropriate joke that she should "spike" Cornelius' drink to get him submissively "frisky", which Imelia doesn't find funny.

On Day 10, the five nominees are called into a luxury room called the 'Meeting-Point'. They are all shocked and confused at seeing one another, as are the safe housemates, who watch on their respective living-room screens. Suddenly, the divider-mirror is lit up to become translucent, making it possible for both houses to see one another. Big Brother explains that both houses have been living alongside one another the whole time, and that the divider has been blocked off and soundproof so they cannot see or hear one another. Big Brother then says whilst they can now see each other, they will still remain as two separate houses, having been split between 'Topdogs' (those who excelled in life due to natural advantages) and 'Underdogs' (those who have struggled against the odds). It is told that each week, both houses will nominate and the two or more with the most votes will face separate votes to save, and that the person with the fewest votes from each house vote will be forced into the 'Arena Duel'. Whoever loses the duel will be evicted from the house for good, whilst the victor will be safe, but instead of returning to their original house, will become a member of the opposing house. Darius is announced as the person with the fewest votes for the 'Topdog' vote, placing him into the duel. Tabitha receives the fewest votes in the 'Underdog' vote, making her the next competitor in the first duel. Darius and Tabitha take part in the puzzle duel, with Darius' intelligence enabling him to dominate whilst Tabitha initially struggles. Despite her efforts improving, Darius is unable to be beaten, and Tabitha becomes the first person evicted from the Big Brother house.

After Tabitha's eviction, those who survived being nominated meet collectively in the 'meeting-point', where they're treated to drinks and a takeaway, and the first opportunity to speak to those from the other house. Aleks is extremely polite and kind to the others during the meeting, causing everyone to appreciate his behaviour. Mthunzi and Justin agree that in returning to the 'Topdog House' they need to look out for one another, whilst Aleks and duel winner Darius return to the 'Underdog House'.

In the 'Topdog House', Zach's alpha male personality begins to rub a few of the housemates the wrong way, in particular Silas, who ends up gossiping about Zach with Minnie and Mthunzi. Meanwhile, Amy and Zach lay together in bed and talk about Minnie. Amy says that she thinks Minnie fancies Zach, and that she's jealous he is giving his attention to people other than her. They agree Minnie seems "lost" inside the house. Sam is awoken by the pair talking and rudely tells them to "shut up". Both Amy and Zach tell Sam to calm down, causing Sam to escalate in her anger, screaming that she cannot do her early morning yoga with the constant abuse of her regular sleeping pattern. She goes off ranting that without her sleep and morning yoga she will "go insane", with Silas and Mthunzi mumbling that it's "too late (for that)". Sam then goes into the garden and begins speaking in a demonic tone to herself, chanting that she hopes her housemates die. Big Brother later warns Sam about her behaviour. Anastasie, Ethan and Mthunzi gossip about Ethan on Day 12, with Ethan saying that he's fed up of Zach acting like he runs the house. Anastasie later warns Zach that his behaviour is annoying people, causing an argument between the pair (as Zach feels he's not acting this way). Zach tells Anastasie to go back to reading magazines, insinuating that it's all she's good for. Anastasie responds by telling Zach she wouldn't even hire him to sell her magazines. On Day 13, Ethan and Sam are nominated for eviction by their fellow housemates.
