Ep 2Big Brother: Unlocked
Dee Cracks the Time Capsule
America voted Dee Valladares into the BB Time Capsule, she beat the challenge, and she emerged holding the BB Bribe — an all-game power to pay off a houseguest, handed to someone already sitting in the majority.
Dee Beats Drew's Time and Takes the House Back
Paul Abrahamian turns the backyard into 851 AD — a Viking training course, six buttons, fastest lap wins. Drew posts the time to beat and it stands until Dee runs it down. One week after sitting on the block for the first time all season, she has the only key that matters — and three houseguests never really went for it.
Dee Puts $5,000 on the Table and a Threat Behind It
Yash turned the BB Bribe down last week and spent this one regretting it. So Dee offered again — $5,000 if he keeps the Icons safe for his entire next HOH, and a seat on the block if he says no. He talked her down to a non-binding promise not to target him, then took the deal. That single conversation is why Yash isn't a nominee and somebody else is.
Yash Walks Into the Lion's Den and Lies Drew Onto the Block
Dee called a Mosh Pit meeting to get the Kamu vote straight, then invited Yash in to say his piece. Yash pinned all of it on Drew — and admitted to the cameras he was making it up as he went. Drew, who genuinely had been playing both sides, couldn't work out what he was allowed to say out loud. The liar walked out clean. The ally walked out a nominee.
America Hands Drew the Most Useless Power in the House
The viewer vote drops Drew into the BB Time Capsule and he comes out with a power — the Never-Not Pass, permanent immunity from slop and absolutely nothing else. He carries it straight upstairs to prove his loyalty, and Dee tells him she does not care what America thinks. Every member of the Mosh Pit except Barrett has now been inside that capsule. Nobody on Yash's side has had a turn.
"Conspiring Against Me" — and Drew's Name Is on the List
LaLa, Drew and Taylor. Dee said she put up the people who had been conspiring against her; LaLa and Taylor denied it on the spot. The third chair was the story — a founding Mosh Pit member nominated by his own alliance, on the word of a man who had just admitted to the cameras he was lying. Taylor demanded chapter and verse. The episode cut out mid-argument.
Ep 34Drew Survives the Pressure Cooker
The Bribe Comes Due
Dee's $5,000 from Week 7 finally cashed in: it shielded all three Icons from Yash's HOH, quietly steering the entire block onto the newbies.
The Tearful Weasel Vote
Voice cracking, Drew cast the sole vote to evict Dee over Devens — loyalty over the bigger threat, and he could barely get the words out.
Dee Calls Him a "Little Weasel"
No hard feelings, all edge: Dee laughed off her blindside, dubbed Drew a little weasel, said she loved them all, and headed to jury as the sixth member.
EVICTION
Eviction Night
Final 4 night, and the whole game came down to one shaky hand on one vote.

FUN FACTS

  • One of the "Reality Icons" — three reality-TV vets (Devens, Dee, Angela) folded into a newbie house.

    Alliance
    EP 1
  • Won BB28's first HOH on a caveman fire-puzzle, beating Angela and Devens — then anchored two alliances the same night.

    Moment
    EP 3
  • She was the season's mystery third alum: revealed on BB28's first 'Big Brother: Unlocked' when Julie's Time Trip 'time table' jumped to December 20, 2023 — the night Dee won Survivor 45.

    Backstory
    EP 3
  • Ran two alliances at once in Week 2: the Crossovers (with Devens, Angela, Barrett and Drew) were the real majority, while the Red Corner she sold to Kamu was a prop.

    Alliance
    EP 5
  • A founding member of The Honor Society, the new four-woman alliance (with Angela, LaTrice and Taylor) — and the only houseguest Devens trusted with the Diamond Veto secret.

    Alliance
    EP 10
  • America voted Dee into the BB Time Capsule; she beat the challenge and walked out with the BB Bribe — a power good for the ENTIRE game that lets her pay a houseguest to do her bidding.

    Moment
    EP 13
  • Offered Yash $5,000 from her secret BB Bribe to keep her off the block, was turned down flat, and then got pulled off it anyway by Devens' Diamond Power of Veto.

    Moment
    EP 21
  • Came off the block in Week 6 without playing for it — Devens spent his Diamond Power of Veto to save her.

    Moment
    EP 22
  • Left Yash off the Week 7 block because of a deal she bought with her secret BB Bribe — the rest of the house didn't learn of it until the Icons revealed it in Week 10.

    Alliance
    EP 24
  • Won the first-ever Big Brother competition set in the year 1000 — a candelabra build hosted by Britney Haynes — and used her spare Stone of Safety on Devens without a second's hesitation.

    Moment
    EP 26
  • Beat the block with pure talk, convincing Yash and Taylor she was a shield who'd target Drew and Barrett next.

    EP 32
  • The last Icon still swinging (with Devens) after Angela's eviction, Dee told Yash and Taylor they had 'saved my life' and vowed to hunt Barrett and Drew.

    Backstory
    EP 33
  • The $5,000 BB Bribe Dee paid Yash back in Week 7 finally came due — it barred him from nominating any of the three Icons during his reign.

    Backstory
    EP 34
  • Was the first of the six to drop out of the marathon "Pressure Cooker" veto, and still reached the Final Five without a competition win all week.

    Moment
    EP 34
  • Nominated three times and still standing at the final five — Dee turned surviving the block into an art form.

    Quirk
    EP 35
  • Signed off calling Drew a 'little weasel,' told the house she loved them, and headed to jury with a laugh.

DEE ON SURVIVOR

Dee Valladares’s Survivor profile

BIO

A Survivor champion who brought a winner's résumé into the BB house. Dee won Survivor 45 with a silent-assassin game — clutch immunity wins capped by a finale reveal that she'd made big moves without telling her closest ally.

🎯 PRE-SEASON FANTASY TAKE

An elite anchor pick — if she can dodge winner-target syndrome. As a Survivor champion her game is fully scouted, but it's so complete it may not matter: comps, relationships, and ruthless timing. The risk is that a house full of superfans knows exactly how dangerous she is.
