Key points:
- Ebuka asks Dede to define the “three fishes” line. He hints it sounds like cold game play.
- Dede says she spoke with Mide as a close friend. She adds that friends may use short, fun code.
- After the show, Dede speaks with Koyin on stairs. She says folks expect rage, but she feels calm.
The chat sprang up right after the live show. Ebuka had just put Dede on the hot seat. He asked if she used people like game pawns. He then pushed for a clear stand.

Dede kept her cool while she spoke back. She said she would not say sorry for that talk. She stressed that Mide stays her friend, not a pawn. She said she talks to friends in her own way.
Ebuka probes Dede on live show
Ebuka set the tone with a bold ask. “When you talk to Mide, you say ‘three fishes,’” he said. “It looks like they are pawns in your game. Are they friends or your play plan?”
Dede took a short pause, then gave a firm view. “How I talk to Mide is my call,” she said. “She is my friend, so I will not explain it. Each of us talks to our friends in a set way.”
Dede explains the ‘three fishes’ code
She then broke down how that tag came up. “The whole fishes thing came from a need for code,” she said. “We felt folks twist our words a lot in here. So we chose side talk to keep gist clear.”
She said the tag does not mark who they are. It is not a dig, or a harsh brand. It was just quick code for a tight group chat. She urged fans to see the full gist, not a snap view.
After the show, Dede talks to Koyin
Later on, Dede met Koyin by the stairs. A clip shows both in a low, calm chat. She said some expect her to be mad at a kiss. “I am not pissed off,” she told Koyin with ease.
The mood stayed cool in that brief clip. No shouts, no heat, just clear words. Both seemed keen to keep peace in the house. The gist soon moved on from the live show buzz.
Meanwhile, fans still talk about last night’s exits. Two housemates left before this chat took place. That shake set the tone for tense talks all night. Read our report on the Week 3 live eviction drama for full names and vote split.
