Next week all the house will be up for the vote, and it's probably going to be a vote to save - so Sam will probably be saved from eviction - which is what BB planned all along.

In fact, BB did not want Sam in their at the beginning as he would have been first out the door.

Then they try and make it look 'fair' by adding him to the six possible HM - knowing full well no one in the house would choose him to go into the house. Which is obviously what happened.

Then they could send him into the house, using Laura (wtf, the whole way she left?) as an excuse to 'cover' their contrivance to get Sam into the FINAL.

Then he is exempt this week from eviction.

But, then consider this, in the garden Sam was taking the piss out of Rachel (as usual) and gloated that she is up for eviction, she said "You'll be up next week" and Sam laughed, brushed it off with a grin and said "yeah, but that is next week". Pretty obvious Sam knows he is protected from eviction by BB, also what idiot would behave like that unless they KNEW BB was protecting them into the final.

BB could loose a lot of cash over making it a vote to save with Sam in the list. Many would vote multiple times to get Sam out, but there won't be many who'll vote to keep him in.
