Big Brother 17: Battle of the Block, Nominations Blog Party - July 5

Good evening! Ready for a blog party? As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll update this entry with the major happenings. Refresh the page to get the latest! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there! I'll be posting another live feeds report late this evening (late East Coast, not necessarily late West Coast).

The people who had Jace in the pool can rally for someone on their own or volunteer to cheer on Jackie or Jeff since they weren't revealed until after the pool was put together.

On with the show ... 

Okay, the recap over with, we get the reactions of Becky and Shelli to their HOHdom. Audrey's lies and instigating are catching up to her. Will she be the main target for eviction? Vanessa was framed by her. The lies will catch up! Day calls a house meeting to expose Audrey. Audrey accuses all of them of being pathological.

Audrey's new strategy is to lie down and play dead. 

Who wants to see our HOH room? I'd love it if everybody refrained some day.

Shelli and Beck discuss putting up four pawns with Audrey as a backdoor plan. They start talking to everybody ... but Audrey. Remember, she's playing dead. Clay and Jeff are more worried about Da'Vonne than they are about Audrey. Audrey comes back from the dead and pleads her case with Jeff, Meg and Clay. Shelli wants Becky to put up pawns who will throw the BotB so she can keep her nominations and HOHdom. They talk to John. She wants to put him up with Da'Vonne and throw the comp.

Filler: Becky tells the tale of being hit in the face by a train.

Nominations Today
Shelli nominates John and Da'Vonne. Day, because she doesn't trust her and needs to protect herself. She doesn't explain John.
Becky nominates Jason and Steve. Jason put her on the block, Steve a great guy but hasn't talked game.

Becky thinks the Audrey backdoor plan is still in action. It isn't. Shelli and Boy Toy Clay want Da'Vonne out.

Da'Vonne and Jason are sure that one of them is the target because they spoke up in the house.

Audrey asks Clay and Shelli if there is a Plan B if Steve or Jason throw the comp. Now Shelli's worried because she doesn't want Becky to know what the real plan is. John is worried a bit about throwing the comp, but he has no real allies in the game. That would gain him some.

Battle of the Block comp time! The yard is done up like a TV house set. It's a filming for Ginger Fever. Finding props on the set with cameras. It's called Give Me Props! Becky is still oblivious and that Audrey is going to be backdoored.

As John says, Da'Vonne's strategy which has them running all over the place, will throw it for herself.

Jason and Steve win the Battle of the Block!

Da'Vonne says she has to win the Power of Veto or she will go home.
Yup.
