He also secured his place in the finale. That means Barry is no longer fighting simply to survive week by week. He is already through to the final. For the other housemates, however, the pressure has become even greater. The Housemates Had to Pitch Directly to Barry This week's nomination process was unlike the usual format. The housemates were given an opportunity to make a two-minute pitch explaining why Barry should save them from possible eviction. One after another, they made their cases. Barry listened. Then Biggie asked him to make the decision. And Barry chose Aikou.  That single decision completely changed Aikou's position in the competition. Why Did Barry Choose...
