While housemate Eliza Borromeo was talking to Kuya in the confession room, and the rest were in the garden, the male housemates got the idea to form a boy group, since it&#x27;s become their dream to perform together. And perfect timing too, because John Clifford, Marco Masa, and Anton Vinzon had already written a short ‘harana’ that they taught to the other male housemates. </p><p>As they started singing, each boy grabbed a partner to serenade. The girls found the random &#x27;harana&#x27; funny but their reactions revealed they were moved by the gesture too. Meanwhile, Eliza was still in the confession room, which made host Robi Domingo joke in the frame, “Buti na lang wala ka no’ng harana, Eliza, kasi baka nalito ka pa kung kanino ka kikiligin.” PBB Teens?! IYKYK.  </p><div><iframe width="966" height="544" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/C-Q2zQJDv1Q" title="Day 21: Boys, naisipang haranahin ang girls | PBB Collab 2.0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>As the first eviction night gets closer, the housemates, especially the nominated group Reich Alim, Waynona Collings, Princess Aliya, and Fred Moser, a.k.a. the Rays of Sunshine, have started feeling that bittersweet sepanx. They’ve all grown so comfortable with each other that the idea of someone leaving already feels heavy. </p><p>So to keep the bonding vibes going, Big Brother gathered the nominated group and told them he&#x27;s willing to help them spend more time with the others in fun bonding activities. But first, they had to survive a task!  </p><p>In their task, the group must transfer as many feathers as possible from Point A to Point B (a container) within an hour. They could only move the feathers by blowing them toward the next teammate in the chain—no hands and definitely no dropping. After the task, a reward awaits them—one bonding moment for every feather they&#x27;d successfully transfer. </p><div><iframe width="966" height="544" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/PTKiHUCrJqQ" title="Day 21: Mga Nominado, tinanggap ang hamon ni Kuya | PBB Collab 2.0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>To kick off the special task, the Rays of Sunshine suited up in their quirky outfits, yes, complete with colorful wigs, and got into position. Fred stood at Point A, Princess took the second station, Reich handled the third, and Waynona was assigned to deliver each feather safely to Point B.  </p><p>Their first feather went smoothly as they easily found their momentum. But midway through, Princess struggled to keep up and accidentally dropped the feathers several times. Thankfully, once they managed to land their second and third feathers in the container, they finally locked into a good rhythm and began hitting their passes more consistently until the fatigue hit them about thirty minutes in. </p><p>They paused for a short break. Princess practiced her technique while the others rested and the non-nominated housemates assisted the group and kept their spirits up. After the break, they came back stronger, and by the end of the task, they had collected a total of 29 feathers. </p><div><iframe width="966" height="544" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/J4ShWnonxBU" title="Day 21: Mga Nominado, nakaipon ng 29 feathers para sa special prize | PBB Collab 2.0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>The 29 feathers the Rays of Sunshine earned in their special task translated into bonding time they could spend with the housemates. </p><p>The girls went first with a simple nail party! While they enjoyed their mani-pedi session, the nominated female housemates Waynona, Reich, and Princess took the chance to share their messages for their co-housemates. Waynona said she never expected to find such solid friendships inside the house and that she hopes to keep them for the rest of her life. </p><p>Even Reich, who’s usually quiet, gathered the courage to express how truly grateful she feels to have met this kind of friendship. And Princess, who grew up homeschooled and used to spending a lot of time alone, said God answered her prayer of finding real friends in Bahay Ni Kuya. The girly &#x27;senti&#x27; feels went up a notch when the other housemates chimed in, sharing the things they genuinely admire about Waynona, Reich, and Princess. </p><div><iframe width="966" height="544" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/xKDAGOyNeD8" title="Day 21: Waynona, Reich, Princess, nagbigay ng mensahe sa girls | PBB Collab 2.0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>While the girls were having their nail party, the boys also got their bonding reward to play basketball, and they all looked as excited as little kids finally allowed to play outside!  </p><p>But first: warm-up time which turned into a full-on zumba session led by their designated leader, John Clifford. Well, at least the warm-up-turned-zumba act became part of their bonding, too. And the moment they moved to the actual basketball area, nominated housemate Fred, who’s also the group’s basketball guy, was obviously having the time of his life. </p><p>A little later, Fred opened up to the male housemates, making sure they felt how much he appreciated the brotherhood they had formed in the house before eviction night arrives. Later in the confession room, one of his closest friends, Iñigo Jose, told Kuya how proud they all were that Fred poured his heart out since he’s usually quiet and how sad they felt knowing someone would be leaving come the first eviction night. </p><div><iframe width="966" height="544" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/lemwq_TYeEw" title="Day 21: Boys, mas tumibay ang samahan dahil sa basketball | PBB Collab 2.0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>Who among Reich, Waynona, Fred, and Princess will be the first two housemates we’ll welcome back into the outside world?
