The show chronicles a group of former contestants, known as HouseGuests, as they compete to be the last competitor remaining to win a grand prize of $500,000.

[5] Big Brother follows a group of contestants, known as HouseGuests, who live inside a custom-built house outfitted with cameras and microphones recording their every move 24 hours a day.

All evicted HouseGuests are eligible to win this award except for those who either voluntarily leave or are forcibly removed for rule violations.

[17] In 2022, Janelle Pierzina appeared as a contestant on the USA Network reality competition series, Snake in the Grass.

[19] The next year, Kaysar Ridha broadcast messages to houseguests of Big Brother 25 to announce the return of the Pressure Cooker and provide more information on prizes and punishments throughout the competition.

Memphis decided to persuade the rest of the HouseGuests to compete in the Safety Suite Competition as a ploy to guarantee that he has a higher chance in winning the following week.

Bayleigh, Christmas, Cody, Da'Vonne, David, Ian, and Kevin swiped their VIP Passes to enter the suite to compete.

At various points, a voice would come over the loudspeaker instructing Ian to put his costume on and act out various scenes over the rest of the week.

With Cody being part of the big alliance, he decided to not use the Power of Veto, feeling like Janelle and Kaysar would come after them given the chance.

With the Committee wanting Janelle out, feeling as if she was a bigger physical threat, they all set their eyes on her on eviction night.

Although Enzo was not part of the Committee, he was heavily affiliated with them, including a side alliance with Cody, Dani and Nicole called the Core Four, they were able to convince him to target Kaysar for the week.

At the veto ceremony, Enzo briefly thought about nominating Ian as a new target, but decided against it, feeling it was too much of a move.

Da'Vonne managed to make it to the final round by winning all of her match-ups, alongside Christmas, who didn't get to answer any questions up to that point.

Prior to the nomination ceremony, the houseguests were informed about the newest twist; the Big Brother Basement, which would replace the Safety Suite competition for that week only.

Christmas received the Blocker Power, which allowed her to prevent either herself or another houseguest of her choice from being named the replacement nominee at one of the next three veto meetings.

David earned the Disruptor Power, granting him the ability to save one of the nominees selected by the HOH, and making them safe from eviction for the rest of the week.

David used his Disruptor power to remove himself from the block, granting him safety for the rest of the week; Dani then named Tyler as the replacement nominee.

Enzo was eliminated first after four questions, followed by Christmas after the seventh, and Nicole F. on the tenth, leaving Cody the final recipient of the Veto.

Minutes later, Da'Vonne was voted by the public as the season's America's Favorite HouseGuest and the $25,000 prize, with Tyler being the next closest contender for the award.

During episode 22, it was revealed that Big Brother 2 winner Will Kirby would move into the neighbor's house for the week and tempt the HouseGuests with prizes during the next HOH and veto competitions.

Color key: Dates for open casting calls were announced on February 28 and were due to start on March 7.
