12 houseguests enter the house where they learn they will be divided into four high school cliques: popular, athletes, offbeat and brains. This blows several people's strategies up right away, as Michele didn't want people to know she was a neurosurgeon and Natalie was hiding that she is a Tae Kwon Do champion.
The first HoH challenge sees all the houseguests suspended in a wedgie position with their groups. The houseguests are shocked to learn that the winning houseguest will not be the new HoH, but will instead have a fourth member added to their clique who will. Russell and Natalie outlast the rest to secure a win for the athletes, meaning that Jessie gets to enter the house.
Jessie looks to Jeff for guidance with nominations, but he isn't much help. Ronnie wants to form an alliance between the brains and the athletes. Laura is flirting with Jessie to try and get on his good side, but he sees right through her. Lydia gives Jessie a massage, hoping it'll keep her off the block.
The Have Not competition is to build a pipeline across the yard. All the cliques except the athletes will take part for the right to become the "in-crowd". The losers will go on slop and have to sleep in the uncomfortable bedroom. The offbeats are the first to complete the task, lead by Casey. The brains lose the challenge after Ronnie over-complicates his pipe, causing Chima to freak out.
Natalie suggests one of the brains goes up as a pawn to disguise their alliance, and Ronnie agrees but tries to make sure it isn't him. Jessie wants Laura to go up, but Russell doesn't see her as threat and wants Lydia out instead.
In the end, Jessie listens to his alliance and nominates Lydia and Chima for eviction. Lydia cries at her unexpected nomination, and is comforted by several houseguests, including Jeff. Jessie and Russell get concerned that their athlete buddy might flip on them so Russell moves quickly to secure Laura.
The PoV competition is to search zits for letters to spell words. Jessie locks his in early and is wrong. Chima, Lydia and Jeff also fail to get a word, with Jeff going for "Tecnotronics". Russell wins the PoV with "shotgun".
Russell is annoyed at Jeff for spending a lot of time with Jordan, and decides to ridicule him for his poor performance in the veto competition. This just further cements Jeff's isolation from the rest of his clique and he tells Natalie he doesn't like them and always felt excluded.
Lydia tries to work Russell to get the veto used on her and suggests that Braden goes up. Russell tells Ronnie the plan, but since Ronnie doesn't trust Russell anymore, he warns Braden he's in trouble. Russell notices a change in Braden's behaviour and thinks Ronnie leaked the plan, but Ronnie denies it when confronted.
Russell uses the veto on Lydia and Braden is put up in his place. Russell lets Braden know that Lydia got him put up, in order to assure he self-destructs. It works, and Braden starts slinging insults at Lydia, getting into an argument with her and Kevin. Lydia's anger spills over onto Jordan, who gets irked that she's being brought into it when she hadn't done anything.
Jordan doesn't want to lose one of her clique, so her and Laura try to convince Ronnie to go against the athletes. Ronnie considers it, but Casey needs to be on board.
A 5-5 tie results in Jessie needing to cast the deciding vote, and he evicts Braden.
