Taylor, Drew and Devens Prepare Their Jury Cases Ahead of the BB28 Finale

Taylor, Drew and Devens are preparing their jury cases ahead of the October 1 finale. The feeds show rehearsal, self-assessment and unresolved questions, with the last HOH and final vote still ahead.

All times Pacific house time.

Big Brother 28 is down to three, and the live feeds show the finalists doing homework. From September 29 into September 30, according to Jokers feed updaters, Taylor, Drew and Devens kept returning to three questions: what the jury will ask, what order the finale runs in, and how to sound prepared without sounding scripted.

At 2:27 PM, updaters report, Devens asked Drew whether his speech was ready, and Drew said it wasn't. Devens described the speech as a hard one-minute limit. That is the houseguests' understanding, not a production rule we've verified.

At 3:55 PM, per updaters, Taylor said she has her points but doesn't want to come off too rehearsed. A minute later she told Drew the questions come before the speech. That is also the houseguests' read of the format.

Drew's late-night run-through was the most revealing. At 11:17 PM, updaters say, he talked about wanting to answer questions well and explain his game. He pointed to his competition record, his self-saves and his role in the majority alliance. That is his own pitch. We haven't independently confirmed his totals or how much control he actually held. At 11:22 PM he practiced describing his connections to Angela and Dee, which was rehearsal material and not the speech itself. Earlier, at 2:37 PM, he worried aloud that jurors might see him as Devens' follower.

At 1:13 AM, per updaters, Taylor was still studying questions and facts while taking out her extensions. At 12:20 PM, Drew and Devens were still working out speech and question order.

The competition board, per Hamsterwatch, stands as follows: Taylor won Part 1, Devens won Part 2, and Part 3 and the final HOH are still to come. The 90-minute finale airs Thursday, October 1.

For context, Dee told Page Six that Taylor held final-four HOH and that Drew won veto, evicted her and kept Devens. That choice gives the jury a concrete decision to weigh alongside his account of his game.

The jury's questions to the eventual final two are expected during the October 1 finale. A taped jury roundtable is a separate segment; we have not confirmed when it was recorded. The rehearsal receipts establish preparation, not a completed jury exchange.
