Big Brother 17: Live Feeds Overnight into Tuesday - August 4

Has no one to buff her armor

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of A House Divided:
  • After some sort of kerfuffle (unknown to us as the feeds were blocked) during the PoV ceremony, things remained calm in the house.
  • For the most part, Clay and Shelli stayed away from the rest of the house.
  • Shelli mingled a bit more than Clay. She explained that Clay just needed some time away from people.
  • Austin told Shelli he tried everything he could to make James change his mind and use the veto, but he knew it was a no go.
  • Although James really wants Shelli out, I don't think that's going to happen.
  • She's more of a threat for the win because she's smart and can win physical challenges. (That's why he would prefer she goes.)
  • But, she's also a lot more social than Clay is in the house.
  • I think both will get votes, but she probably has the edge to stay.
  • The majority of the evening had small groups with small talk, lots of pool games.
  • The big excitement was discovering a praying mantis they named Perry.
  • It was boring.
  • I wanted a brouhaha!
  • Vanessa is continuing to work the Keep Shelli In Here program.
  • As Becky has been some sort of self-appointed double agent, trying to play both sides. However, when it comes down to it, she'll be on the side of Shelli/Vanessa and Co.
  • Meg, James and Jackie still don't realize she's doing this.
  • Clay lamented that floaters will win this year.
  • Aw, poor Clay.
  • Had he not latched onto Shelli (or vice versa), he'd be a little lost lamb in the game.
  • Both Clay and Austin continue to crack their necks. Make them stop.
  • Again, Steve stayed up past the others, pacing about the yard reciting the comps and such.
  • He said that James knows that's he's been playing both sides and, if he (Steve) wins HoH, not only will Meg kiss him, but he'll put Becky and Shelli on the block. Hmm.
  • While he was out there, Clay and Shelli emerged and hit the hammock.
  • Shelli and Steve talked.
  • Clay probably wanted Steve to go away. He grunted a few times.
  • Clay finally joined in when Steve and Shelli started talking about the pre-season interviews with Rachel and others.

Puckering for a kiss from Austin? Heh.

Drama free evening for the gals

All about the drama for this gal

Is he bitter? Yep.

Vanessa continues to support Chelli

Late night small talk

Lady MacBeth led the charge to save Shelli over Clay, mostly because she knows she can totally control Shelli. She pulled the Vulcan Mind Meld on the Austwins and they joined her in the Save Shelli thing. Dammit. I do agree that this will not the DE week. All these houseguests think they have locked-down the entire BB formula & itinerary; I hope Production shuffles things around to keep them off-guard.

The BB announcement, "House guests, remember to enjoy yourself today. These are the good old days!" could be a hint at what?

Sort of disappointed that Shelli will stay, but Clay has been pretty bored with the entire experience; it wasn't what he thought it would be, he has a life outside the house.

I hope there will be no James backlash, but there is always some bitter people after ANY eviction. *sigh*

If Clay hadn't paired up with Shelli I don't know that he would have lasted this long. He does not seem to know how to play this game and doesn't seem particularly socially adept, despite how everything appears on the outside.

I'm really sorry that Shelli will be staying. She'll have it in for James next week and it looks like the Austwins are pretty malleable. And unfortunately, Shelli is the type of person that if she says a lie enough times, it becomes true and then others believe it. She can be pretty convincing.

Can't wait to see what happened at the veto! It's so distasteful when adults act like toddlers.

Chacha said...

These hamsters believe this week will be what day certain things happened.
I don't believe they will do this until Julia is no longer in the house.
It really isn't fair. I am not saying I want only fair things to happen.
I would love for Jackie to win HOH this week and nominate Shelli and Vanessa with
a backup of Austin.

Witt said...

OOOOOH, Chacha!! Now THAT would be awesome!! :)

Petals said...

In Jason's tweets, he says that Clay was loud and acted-out a lot of the time, but it was all edited. Hmm.

David said...

If they tell James, as they said they are going to do, that they are voting out Clay instead of shelli, James needs to go on the mental attack. Time to play some mind games. I know he is crude enough to do it. Start mentioning how clay is going to be hooking up with every girl he comes across as soon as he gets out since they believe he is so loved by America.

I know what I would say just before the HoH competition begins on Thursday to throw Shelli off her game but I can't say it here. She will already be broken up and Vanessa possibly would be effected also as she will be thinking about that and not have time to spin her web of comfort around Shelli. Just like trash talking in any other game, do what you need to do to get a slight advantage and give your team a chance to win.

Chacha said...

David- I like your line of thinking. James being in the military previously should know to do this.

Sharon N said...

Every year, we see the paranoia that hits the hamsters, but Vanessa has to top the list! lol
I'll bet she even sees Dead People...

Petals said...

Loving your style Dave ! Whoooo

Sharon - LMAO

uncartie said...

Jackie,You pointed out how unaware Little Caeasar (James) Jackie,and Meg are concerning Becky being a double agent. Let's just call them the 3 Stooges of BB. James/Moe,Jackie/Larry,and Meg/Curly.

Exhibit A:
"James: I did what was best for the house. There's no more house split anymore. The house is mending, there's no pecking order." @@
Maybe in some alternate universe!
Yeah,it's gonna be all hugs,kisses and Kumbaya. Everyone on the other side will automatically forget you double crossed Shelli in front of the whole house.
Keep dreaming Little Caesar.

Sharon N said...

uncartie,
You are right, James won't get off Scott-free.
The question is, how soon his possible demise happen?
No doubt, it will depend on who gets the next HOH.
If it's Shelli, she'll go after him.
If it's AusTwins, who knows? They change with the wind, but seem to be concentrating more on other people (so far).

Chacha said...

The feeds are blocked right now like they are when there is a comp going on.
Have to wonder what may be going on that is shady from production.
Does production want to give Clay a special power?
I think I have been hit with the Vanessa paranoa

monty924 said...

Love all the comments this afternoon, LOL. James (aka Little Caesar, love that uncartie) will catch some flack for this week but I think he'll ride it out. Despite the house saying earlier that a public deal has never been broken before, Vanessa does know about the Dan/Ollie betrayal and spilled the beans to Clelli last night, and pretty sure that Austin and Steve know it too but have just been playing dumb. James also has the ability to win vetos if he isn't a BD target.

I can't wait for the show tomorrow night to see entitled Clay act like a spoiled child. BB knows that the tide has turned and Shelli will likely stay, so they'll it on thick with the edit on Wednesday and Thursday so the CBS viewer won't be surprised when he walks out the door on Thursday. Weeeeeee!

monty924 said...

And just to add, I'd love to see Jackie win HoH this week even if the twins could be nominated. I think she'd go after Shelli/Vanessa/Austin too over the twins.

Sharon N said...

I wonder if CBS will edit out most of Clay's snit-fit.

Chacha said...

Monty924-
I said that this morning.
I would love to see Vanessa try and manipulate her. it wont happen.
Vanessa may just explode if she or one of her minions don't win HOH
on Thursday.

I was reading tweets from Jason earlier and apparently there was alot shown before feeds went live with Jace stepping on Davonnes foot before nominations.
Also Clay, jace and Austin figuring out what to do for camera time.

Anonymous said...

I personally do not see anything wrong with James lying to Shelli, he and Clay have done it since day one, they eve threw chatty Cathy (Vanessa) under the bus. Shelli didn't even include her in the promise not to put her on the block, everyone in that house knows that there are in an alliance together, let's seen how faithful Vanessa and Shelli remain to each other when it comes to that 1/2 million dollars. Vanessa might be paranoid but she is way smarter than Shelli, she is totally using her to do her dirty work. Vanessa did what she was told to do when she was told by Clelli to evict Jason because who was going to be upset about Jason leaving other than Meg and James. I can't wait to the her little boy toy leave, maybe she can cuddle with Steve or JMac now,Hehe

Chacha said...

So feeds are blocked and they had a comp to get takeout delivered.

Sharon N said...

After Clay goes, the best thing that could happen is taking out Vanessa or Liz next.

Vanessa plays Shelli like a violin. Not holding my breath, but with boy-toy gone, maybe she'll become more aware of Vanessa's ploys/plots.

With Liz out, it would probably throw Austin into a complete tizzy. He's not exactly 'sharp' upstairs, and Vanessa plays him well. Plus, Julia can't stand the guy, so I expect her to move on... fast.

Chacha,
It's kind of funny about them trying to figure out how to get camera time.
Especially since Jace doesn't even have 'picture-wall' time now!!
That had to have frosted his cookies. LMAO


monty924 said...

JMac is goo at the whisper thing. He just moves his lips.

Petals said...

Lady MacBeth is targeting J*Mac now *cue 'Jaws' theme*

A Jackie win would be hilarious!

Petals said...

I'm so disappointed that Shelli is staying.

uncartie said...

I'm gonna take a wild guess and predict that the lockdown and comp have something to do with new shows CBS wants to is promote for the fall. Last year they let a few hg's go to see a preview of "Stalker" or "Scorpion" and we were all making fun of Caleb stalking Amber.

Petals said...

LOL uncartie. Cound be!

Terrible storms here, satellite is out, so prolly no show for me :(

Ed in Ohio said...

Don't know who will go Clay or Shelli? Can't tell with this group! 5-4 one way...5-4 the other way? Who knows?

But if Clay does go looks like Shelli already has Steve waiting in the wings to take his place.......'Stelli' ;))

Anonymous said...

Shelli should be the one voted out. That move would really benefit all. This group wanting to keep her seem to be over thinking and allowing emotions rule not logic. James made a good move and I hope he sticks around.

David said...

What is with BB telling then current events in the house? Evidently during the "competition" for take-out food all the questions had to do with current events and then they gave them the answers. They were talking about Trump running for president, etc.

I hope Julia throws a vote to evict Shelli. She has done the hinky vote before and it pushes Shelli out. =)

RyzandShyn said...

I too will be disappointed if Shelli doesn't leave. I hope James can pull off a "mental attack" as David says above. I see a Shelli eviction as the best for Vanessa too, since Clay is malleable :), but obviously she doesn't.
Sounds plausible that if the comp was for take out delivery that watching a new show or movie might go with it.

monty924 said...

Could be David. Trump was running before they went in (sort of), but the fact that James, Steve and JMac had that convo out of nowhere makes me think they let them know some things. I'll be happy with whichever one of them walks out the door actually. I don't care who does as long as one of the them are G-O-N-E.

Petals, hope your satellite is back up before tomorrow night. You know it's going to be a good one. They have to show more of Clay's hissy fit after the noms and then the POV and aftermath. I'm guessing we'll just get a hint of his fit or the brouhaha from the POV meeting as the show is going off tomorrow night. See, this cast is delivering the entertainment. :))

monty924 said...

Oh, uncartie it was Scorpion last season and I love that show now. DVR it every week. Can't wait for the new season to start.

Sharon N said...

Agree David.
Julia is the wild-card in the AusTwins gang. She remarked that she thinks Clay should be the one to stay. Austin/Liz think they've shut her down on that, but she's let it be known that she doesn't give two whoops about Austin's opinion. And Liz's opinion is directly correlated with that dipstick's.

uncartie said...

Monty,I love Scorpion too and dvr all the episode. I liked Stalker too
But CBS cancelled it.

My cable is out until at least Thursday,
Damn you Comcast! Ishould be able to watch via my Roku box
though

Petals said...

well, as usual, I was too foggy to know what day it is/was. *sigh*
I think my mind is like that of my mother's: not long for this world.
