Warning! Spoilers for the Wednesday, September 9 episode of Big Brother below!
Christmas Abbott, Bayleigh Dayton, and Da'Vonne Rogers are involved in the most heated fight of Big Brother 22: All-Stars so far. Prior to this season, these three players had never crossed paths on the show. Da'Vonne competed on BB17 and BB18, Christmas got to the Final 3 on BB19, and Bayleigh was the first jury member of BB20. On Big Brother 22, Bayleigh and Da'Vonne tried to work with Janelle and Kaysar. However, they were huge targets and things didn't work out. With that said, Bayleigh and Da'Vonne still became the house's next two targets immediately following Janelle and Kaysar's eviction... which was precisely the point they were trying to make while they were still in the game.
Then, the predictable happened on Big Brother 22: Christmas won HOH and nominated Bayleigh and Da'Vonne. When Christmas also won the POV, Tyler had a change of heart and asked her to put him up on the block as a replacement nominee. Tyler explained that Bayleigh and Da'Vonne were there to represent the Black community, which was a much bigger cause than his journey. Bayleigh had a similar conversation with Christmas where she explained her cause and explicitly stated that she trusted Christmas wholeheartedly. So it seemed like Bayleigh and Christmas were on the same page, but the replacement nominee plan never came to fruition.
Bayleigh and Da'Vonne were hurt that Christmas refused to put up Tyler on the Big Brother: All-Stars nomination block even after he explicitly asked her to. Bayleigh also felt like Christmas completely disregarded their very honest conversations and used certain things that were said against her. Later that night, Christmas asked Da'Vonne about Bayleigh. Da'Vonne said that Bayleigh disliked that her personal cause in the game was turned against her. Christmas defended it all as a game move, but she and Da'Vonne had a heated disagreement about that. Da'Vonne then decided to walk away. In a sarcastic way, Christmas wished Da'Vonne a good night and yelled out that the door to the HOH room would be locked all night, as if Da'Vonne would pose a threat to her otherwise. Then, Bayleigh entered the argument.
Bayleigh missed most of Christmas' argument with Da'Vonne because she had been recording a Diary Room session for the BB22 main episodes. At first, Christmas admitted to Bayleigh that she needed to lower her tone. Bayleigh tried to explain her feelings, saying that it was fine if they had to agree to disagree. Bayleigh also said that she had no problem separating personal issues and game moves. A now-crying Christmas said that she didn't think that Bayleigh was capable of separating the two. Seeing that Christmas was now starting to cry and invalidating everything that had been said, Bayleigh flat-out told Christmas: "You don't get to play the victim in this situation." That didn't sit well with Christmas, who walked out and started to yell once again. When Bayleigh went to her encounter, Christmas had her fingers pointing to Bayleigh's face. Lastly, Christmas told Bayleigh to "f**k off."
In the end, Da'Vonne and Bayleigh went to the Big Brother 22 backyard to process their feelings. Tyler, Daniele, and Cody were quick to acknowledge that Da'Vonne and Bayleigh did the right thing. They also recognized that, indeed, it was Christmas who started to raise her voice and point fingers.
