It looks like Super Villain Office Hours just got extended. In the latest episode of House of Villains, Kate kept her winning streak going, and she’s putting everything she’s got into taking down Tyson. Is a Survivor star any match for a Bravoleb? Not really.
When we last left off, the Below Deck alum got to spearhead Johnny’s elimination, and she lucked out when Ashley also had to bow out of the show due to a mystery illness. Two for the price of one.
Kate then turned around and lucked out a second time when she found Ashley ‘s germ-ridden notebook with her entire alliance strategy written down in ink. In House of Villains, Season 3 Episode 7, “The Nut House of Villains,” Kate’s reign continued, and she’s feeling pretty unstoppable.
What happened in House of Villains Season 3 Episode 7?
After last week’s double elimination, Joel whipped the House of Villains cast into another frenzy with a mysterious envelope. Opening it meant an automatic spot on the Hit List, and Kate had her hands all over it. However, another unexpected Supervillain of the Week win kept her in a position of power. She’s gliding through this game without breaking a sweat, or a smile, and she’s got Tyson and Tom on the defense.
Don’t open that envelope
The villains barely had time to even pretend like they were sad to see Johnny leave the game when another twist got dropped onto them. Most of them didn’t realize it was even happening.
Joel left a mysterious envelope in their pantry, and it didn’t take long for Tyson to find it. He’s always the first to grab, as Christine pointed out.
Inside the mysterious envelope was a cursed letter. Reading it automatically puts you on the Hit List.
To break the curse, Tyson had to trick someone else into opening the envelope. The curse kept going with each person to open it. The last person to get the note before the next Battle Royale Challenge would remain on the Hit List. Joel called it a “death sentence.” This whole time, we thought death only happened on The Traitors.
At this point, Tyson felt desperate to rebuild his bromance with Sandoval, so he immediately went to him and gave him a heads-up about the letter. From there, the two conspired to get Kate to fall for it. She’s nosey, so of course, she opened it up right away.
With Kate holding the note, Tyson went and warned Paul and New York so they’d know not to open it. Christine saw them all fumbling around it, so she knew not to touch it. Drita said she knows better than to tamper with someone else’s mail, so she didn’t want to touch it either. That left Kate with no other options. This curse landed her on the Hit List.
Kate went nuts on the Battle Royale Challenge
The only way Kate could get off the Hit List was by winning Supervillain of the Week, which seemed like a stretch after winning it last time. Miraculously, she made it happen. She might officially be Season 3’s comp beast.
This week’s Battle Royale Challenge was centered around nuts, mainly so Joel make a million and one jokes about the male genitalia. Seriously, he talked about fat nuts, busting nuts, holding nuts, and pretty much any other type of euphemism you can imagine. God bless this trashy show.
In the game, everyone started with the same number of nuts. They had to go into a little shed and privately empty some of those nuts into a bag. The goal was to have the most nuts at the end of the game, while never dropping the fewest amount of nuts each round. Oh, and they also had to dress up like squirrels, just because.
After Joel explained it, you could tell that some of these villains were highly confused. Anything involving math is going to throw off most of these people. Kate, on the other hand? She was locked in. Her only way to get off the Hit List was to win the Supervillain of the Week, and by golly, she did it.
You’ve also got to give an honorable mention to New York, who came in second place. She was just one nut away from becoming the Supervillain. It would have been her first win in three seasons, but the nuts were just not in her favor.
It’s time to split up the bromance
After winning Supervillain for the second week in a row, you couldn’t tell Kate a damn thing. The Supervillain Office Hours reopened, and she dove right back into making all of the boys in the house squirm.
Kate already got a taste of revenge in the last round, getting two of her enemies out of the house in one week. Now, she gets to take another shot at those whose wronged her? She’s seriously living the dream.
Tyson and Tom knew they were in hot water since they helped orchestrate Kate’s opening of the secret letter. It was an especially crappy move on Sandoval’s part, since just last week, Kate tried to warn him about Tyson’s lies. She told him that being too trusting of Tyson might hurt him, but he didn’t listen. Now, Kate is deadset on splitting them up. This bromance shalln’t last forever.
Who did Kate put on the Hit List in HOV Season 3 Episode 7?
Unfortunately, House of Villains hit us with a major cliffhanger this week, so we don’t know who all wound up on the Hit List. We did, however, see two out of three!
Of course, Kate put up her obvious choices, Tyson and Sandoval. They were not in the least bit surprised, nor did they have any valid arguments for Kate. They knew exactly what they did to earn those spots.
The third spot is where things are going to get tricky. Kate is cool with Drita and Christine. Putting them on the Hit List would be a betrayal of her closest allies.
Kate told Paul that she’d spare him from the Hit List this week. She knows they’re not loyal to anyone in the house. They’ve also been on the Hit LIst more than anyone. Paul deserves a week off, for crying out loud!
Then, that leaves New York. Just like Paul, she has a hard time being loyal to anyone, and Kate said she felt concerned that she had been leaning a bit too far into Tyson/Tom’s side of things. She made out with Tyson for 30 full seconds. They’re bonded!
But, would Kate betray her roommate? Would she even want to subject herself to the level of insults that automatically come along with putting New York up for elimination? We’ll find out next week when House of Villains returns.
House of Villains drops new episodes on Thursdays at 9/8c on Peacock.
