Summary of Episode 1:
All 16 hgs moved in, with the newbies moving in groups of 4, then the 8 returnees entered individually.
For the HOH competition the 16 hg's were paired up (one newb and one returnee). The winning pair could appoint any of the hgs as HOH. Karen and Sindy won, naming Karen as the HOH.
The first shockwave was revealed: Canada can vote for someone to be sent right to the jury phase of the game (skipping the early stages).
