Big Brother: BB24 HoH/Nominations Show Blog Party - July 31

 Good evening! Welcome to the blog that never ends ... or something like that. Tonight's show will air the HOH comp and nominations. We know in real time that the veto comp has already played out. However, since this is a show post, please remember not to comment any spoilers!

I will be live-blogging as the show airs here on the East Coast -- refresh the page to get the latest update. As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there! 

Previously On segment goes over all the alliances once again.

We pick up with the hamsters searching for the red invitation in the 1,500 envelopes that fell to earth in the backyard. As we know from the show end -- Jasmine, Terrance, Brittany and Monte have one.

We cut to after Ameerah walks out the door. Michael admits to Alyssa that he voted to evict her. Alyssa is in tears. Nicole looks like she's on the warpath. Indy too is stomping around.

Back to the backyard invitation search. Now Daniel joins in. with the winners, then Joseph. Now Nicole and the last one is Alyssa - in a foot race with Indy.

HOH Comp - When they hear the scream, they have to slide three goblets down wooden lanes for points, then hit their button. 

Alyssa 4

Nicole 9

Joseph 5

Daniel 4

Monte 11

Brittany 3

Terrance 4

Jasmine 5

MONTE is the new HOH!

The Leftovers are happy, Nicole not so much. She's on a mission to see why and how the votes flipped voting Ameerah out. She's even suspicious of her buddy Daniel.

It turns out that Joseph and Monte had told Terrance he's welcome to join them if that was part of the eviction Bestie twist. They figure if they go on the block, Terrance would be out and they would be safe.

Kyle thinks Alyssa would always favor Ameerah over him although they're close. Joseph thinks that Kyle is naive and needs to watch Alyssa. He tells him she has mentioned having a "person" outside the house. Kyle lets her know that he knew about the Ameerah ouster even though he didn't tell her.

Who wants to see my HOH room segment ... his letter is from his mother. A lot of Spanish in it. It ends with "no chicas." He cries in the Diary Room to us. Heh -- they wait out all the non-Leftovers and then do a silent victory dance. 

They talk about Nicole going. However, Taylor is her (fake) Bestie and really doesn't want to go on the block again. She suggests putting up someone who hasn't been on the block yet.

Alyssa tells Monte she wants to salvage his trust and work together. He tells her she isn't his target and Taylor remains her target. He hints he might put Indy/Alyssa up, then backdoor Taylor. He tells Indy the same story. She is very upset at the idea.

Monte talks to Taylor and tells her he doesn't want to target Nicole because he doesn't want to put her (Taylor) on the block again. He tells her that he would only backdoor Nicole if she is okay with it. He really wants to get Nicole out.

Nominations Ceremony time. Monte nominates Alyssa/Indy. He tells them they are not his target for this week and he hopes they win the veto. He tells us that if the veto is not used, Alyssa is the target and, if Taylor okays it, Nicole is his backdoor target.
