BB19: HoH, Nominations Show Blog Party - August 27

As the show airs here, I'll be live-blogging and constantly updating this entry -- refresh the page to get the latest! As always, the real party is in the comments area. Come join in on the fun!

But first ... the recap. 

Okay, we're to the hot dog buns hanging hamsters HoH comp. They're getting squirted on them and we're getting DR session bits from all. Alex tells us that she and Jason decided one of them would rogue vote Matt and blame it on Kevin. Her vote was indeed accidental and thus Matt got two votes to go.  The wall of buns is tipping, too. Kevin slips and is out first, thinking he needs to depend on Alex or Jason to win and keep him safe.

Matt is out. He want Raven or Paul to win to put up Alex and Jason on the block. Josh is down. Paul jumps, faking that he fell. Raven goes out immediately after Paul. It's down to Jason and Alex. They "fight" for it. Raven is upset that they're staying up. Alex wants safety and a jury vote. Matt is mad because poor Raven is shivering and crying. Ha. Alex finally jumps and Jason wins HoH.

BB switched out the kitchen table for the mid-size one while they were out doing the comp. Jason tells us he wants to put Matt and Raven on the block. Matt is hoping Jason will go after Kevin.

Josh tells Alex that Kevin was freaking out about the hinky Matt votes to Paul. He thinks it's proof that Kevin was the vote. Meanwhile, Jason tells Kevin that it was him and Alex. He tells Kevin to act like he doesn't know.

So now everybody thinks Kevin was one of the votes. If they could blame both votes on him, they would. 

Paul and Alex talk -- they want to make Matt and Raven think that Kevin will be backdoored if they both go on the block. They buy the story.

Jason admitted to Alex that he told Kevin they were the votes for Matt to go. Now she's thinking that Kevin might be a liability to their game. 

A segment on how Raven can't talk. Another segment on the lies she tells. 

The Tree of Temptation is back for its second round at the hamsters. Paul points out to us that the bad apples outweigh the possibility of the good. 

Christmas picks up on Josh being a bit suspicious of Paul. He thinks Paul is getting too close to Alex and Jason. Who woulda thunk that it would be JOSH of all people who is catching onto Paul? 

Kevin tells Jason he fell because he's had surgeries on his wrist. The vote comes up again. Jason really wants him to calm down because his digging will spotlight him.

Raven goes to Jason because she wants to know if she's going on the block. He hints to her that Kevin is still his target (as he had previously told her). She buys it. Jason tells Paul they -- Matt and Raven -- need to be split. If Matt goes, Raven should crumble. Raven tells Matt that Kevin is the real target.

Time for the nominations ceremony.
Jason first nominates Raven, then Matt. Old hat for them, feel comfortable, know the real agenda -- another hint at the backdoor Kevin plan for the two comfortable nominees.
