The Mom Squad

The Mom Squad is an alliance in Big Brother 15 consisting of the two mothers in the house, Elissa Slater and Helen Kim. The name was coined by Kim during the sixth episode of the Big Brother 15.

Creation
During pre-season interviews, Elissa Slater made it clear that she wanted to start an all-girl's alliance. Slater and Helen Kim eventually formed the alliance based on their mutual motherhood.

On the Outs and Dramatic Flip
Immediately after it was discovered that she was former houseguest Rachel Reilly's sister and that she was likely to get the MVP award due to Reilly's fanbase, Elissa was immediately an outcast and treated very poorly by several houseguests, particularly Aaryn Gries and Jeremy McGuire. However, Helen bonded with Elissa anyway despite several houseguests warning Helen not to. This put a target on Helen's back as well.

After Elissa was backdoored by McCrae Olson, Helen made a campaign to oust David Girton in her place. What she was unaware of was McCrae's then-alliance The Moving Company, consisting of McCrae, Jeremy, Nick Uhas, Howard Overby, and Spencer Clawson, had already set a plan in motion to evict David and use Elissa's MVP status to their advantage. Elissa survived eviction by a vote of 7 to 5, completely blindsiding David's showmance Aaryn and her allies GinaMarie Zimmerman and Kaitlin Barnaby along with Candice Stewart.

Out for revenge, Aaryn ended up winning the next Head of Household competition and immediately put Helen and Elissa on slop for their second week in a row along with Andy Herren and Candice. Drunk with power, Jeremy then made a campaign to his Moving Company alliance to evict Elissa because he was worried his showmance partner Kaitlin would be nominated through the MVP. Sure enough, Elissa did win MVP but she chose to nominate Jeremy because he was a strong male.

Jeremy went on to win POV and Elissa nominated Nick after a discussion with Candice about getting strong guys out and after Nick would not give her a straight answer. Though this may have seemed to seal Elissa's fate as Nick would've had the votes of Jeremy, Howard, McCrae, Spencer, GinaMarie, Kaitlin and Jessie Kowalski, Helen and Elissa then made a strong campaign to get Nick out and managed to convince McCrae, Spencer, Howard and Jessie to defect from their alliances. At the eviction, Elissa once again survived and Nick was blindsided by a vote of 7 to 4 with only Jeremy, Kaitlin, GinaMarie and Howard voting to keep him.

That same night, Helen went on to win the HoH competition.
