'Big Brother 9' - Live Feeds Since the POV Meeting

It's getting a bit chilly in the house for Matt now that he's on the block, huh? He stays warm in a blanket as he and Ryan rehash all of their triumphs in the time of their defeat. And, we all know about the agony of defeat!

I wrote up the show review for JJ over at TV Squad once again. If you want to take a peek, here's the link to the review.

Here's what's gone down in that Big Brother House of Turned Tables since the POV meeting:

• Matt keeps fussing about how he'll spend Easter and his birthday in sequester. It turns out (if you believe him) that he's not interested in the big win -- he just thought he'd have his birthday on TV! Yeah, right.
• Matt cried. Real tears, even.
• Matt tried to wheel and deal with James for favor of his group. He promised to throw HOH comps, betray Natalie, anything!
• James told Matt that he'd have to work for the votes. In their discussion Matt convinced himself that all the evils done were done by Ryan, not by himself. (He doesn't take into consideration that a lot of what Ryan did was in conjunction with Matt but Matt wasn't in the position of power.)
• Matt thinks Ryan comes across to others as Mr. Nice.
• Natalie wants to win HOH and convince Adam to swing to their side.
• Matt campaigned to Joshuah and Sheila telling them how much worse Ryan was to others than he was. (How quickly the bros come apart, eh?)
• Joshuah told Ryan that he should be safe. Joshuah is thinking the vote will be 5-1 for Matt to go.
• Sheila asked Matt to sleep in her bedroom. No, not in a sexual way.
  
• Matt and Sheila talked forever with Matt trying to play her Mom side and the "I never betrayed you" bit. She doesn't seem to be buying what he's selling. If she is, she's making him sweat it.
• Natalie is running around saying she will win HOH next week and put James on the block. Sharon (and others) reported it back to James.
• Adam told Ryan he'd vote for him to stay.
• Shades of Jen, Matt claimed he wouldn't stay in sequester. We know how that worked out with Jen -- contracts, loss of stipend, lawsuit. People don't skip out on sequester.
• Matt cried some more.
• Sharon and Sheila agreed that if they take Matt out, Natalie will fall apart.
• Sheila said that Natalie is blaming her for her predicament. (It's always all about her, y'know!)
• Natalie told James she's going to backdoor him next week.
• James is shaking in his sneakers. (Okay, I made that up. He's not all that concerned.)
• Matt again worked on James, telling him how much he wanted his birthday on TV. @@
• Matt cried again.
• Ryan hasn't shed a tear.
• Matt begged.
• Matt worked on Sheila once again.
• Natalie ranted about James breaking his word to them.
• Matt worked on Adam who wouldn't tell him which way he plans to vote.
• Matt worked on Sharon who told him she wants to think about it for a day before she decides.
• Matt pleaded.
• Adam told Matt he has to work Sharon and Chelsia and if he can swing them over, he'll think about it. Matt told him they were leaning towards him. (Really? Perhaps towards him leaving!)
• Matt lamented losing his girlfriend to go on the show. (And not being able to spend his birthday on TV.)
• Matt was kind of funny whining about how he'd spend Easter alone in sequester hiding eggs and finding them himself.
• Sheila says she needs to win HOH. She's been manipulated in the game and that has to stop! @@
• Sheila thinks the Boys Club and Natalie were all playing her.
• Adam is just happy that Ryan and Matt are on the block instead of himself and Joshuah.
• Sheila told Adam he never gives anyone a straight answer. Well, duh. It keeps him in the game and off the block. I don't like Adam at all, but his game play is low-key and he skates along week to week never being the target. If he doesn't give a straight answer, he doesn't break his word either.
• James, Joshuah, and Sharon got yelled at by the BB voice for using hand signals instead of speaking.
• Sheila and Adam once again said they had each other's back. That's good because I don't think anyone else gives a darn about them except for their vote.
• Matt once again tried to work Joshuah. When Josh asked him what votes he has, Matt told him Sharon was "looking" like she was going to vote for him. Does Matt think that Sharon and Joshuah don't talk?
• Sheila and Natalie got into a minor catfight. Sheila said Matt is going to go home and Natalie says it's Sheila's fault.
• Then Sheila and Natalie turned their vitriol into a Joshuah bash ... not to his face, of course.
• Sharon thinks only she or Joshuah will do good things with the money. (Matt earlier said he wants to buy his mother a home as she lives in a small apartment.)
• Natalie said she thinks the editing of Sheila will portray her as crazy and mental. (Or was she talking about herself?)
• Natalie thinks Sharon has a crush on Matt. I think she's still thinking about that kiss.
• Natalie thinks they can change Joshuah's mind about the vote because he'll only have Sharon and Chelsia to protect him next week.
• Natalie is delusional.
• Matt stopped crying, but didn't stop campaigning.
• Natalie worked Adam to work Joshuah to work for Matt to stay. Adam hasn't committed -- why does she think he'll help her and her Mattie?
• Sheila told Sharon and Joshuah how hard Natalie was working on her to save Matt.
• Sharon said that Natalie offered her safety if she would be the 4th vote for Matt to stay.
• Sheila said she told Matt and Natalie they didn't have her vote. (Not quite true ... she just came across as reluctant from what I saw, never blatantly said no. I might have missed it, though.)
• Sheila asked Joshuah what his vote would be. He sidestepped the issue and said he would vote for what's best for the house (Matt out, I'm sure.)

That's about where we stand right now. BB gave them alcohol and they've gotten into a lot of small talk. Despite severely campaigning to stay, Matt has been talking cordially with Ryan. Ryan is just kind of mellow over the whole thing.
