In the task called “Ready, Cassette, Go” the housemates were divided into two groups—Side A composed of the non-nominated housemates and Side B composed of the nominated housemates plus Ruru Madrid—with a giant cassette prop placed between them acting as a visual wall, where Side A had to toss small cassette tapes over the divider while Side B, moving in sync and working as one unit, had to catch the right color-coded tapes in their individual basket, each color representing one of the nominees.
The task kicked off with a few rough throws from Caprice, who struggled a bit at first to get the tape to land where it needed to. But as soon as John Clifford and Joaquin Arce took over, they were able to adjust and figure out the best strategy to get the tapes across with more control. Over at Side B, Heath Jornales also came up with an effective 'diskarte' to improve their chances of catching the right cassette tapes.
At the end of the task, the nominated housemates were presented with a reward—a cassette recording with a message from a loved one. Eliza Borromeo, with the rest of the house gathered around her in the living room, listened as her father, Ronaldo Santos, poured out words of love and assurance, telling her how proud he was and reminding her that no matter the outcome of her journey in "PBB," she would always be the winner in his eyes.
He also briefly addressed the issue she once opened up about being stopped from studying, saying he never opposed her desire to study but that an unexpected opportunity came along which meant her schooling had to be set aside for a while, adding that "walang magulang ang gustong mapahamak ang anak," and assuring Eliza that their whole family is proud of her.
Inside the confession room, Eliza said the message gave her the courage to keep going because she had been overthinking these past days about whether her family was truly proud of her, and this message finally confirmed that they are.
