BB25: HOH Competition Show Blog Party - Aug. 13

BB IS DELAYED ON THE EAST COAST. RIGHT NOW IT IS 7:55PM EDT AND GOLF IS STILL ON. AFTER GOLF, WE WILL HAVE TO SIT THROUGH 60 MINUTES. I WILL UPDATE WHEN I KNOW THE TIME THE SHOW WILL START. 

UPDATE: 60 MINUTES STARTED AT 8:13PM EDT. EXPECT BB25 AT 9:13PM EDT.

Whoa! So much has happened on the live feeds (except for really long blockages) that I have forgotten where the show is at! But it's all coming back to me now ...

I will be live-blogging, constantly updating this post as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news! The real party is in the comments area -- I hope to see you there!

But first ... this is the third and final version of our blog pool. When Luke got the boot, his blog folks were reassigned. At least one was reassigned to Kirsten who went out immediately after. So, in the interest of fairness to all, those assigned to Kirsten have been reassigned. From this point forward, when your hamster is out, you are out of the pool. Well, you can hang out at the pool, but ...!

Let's go! Okay, it's now 9:11PM EDT and 60 Minutes has ended. Bring on BB!

We begin with the traditional recap going over the many alliances and happenings.

Where did the houseguests go? We will find out tonight. Day 09 has them in a neighborhood in the Nether Region of the ScaryVerse. One will become HOH, one will be left behind in the Nether Region. Reilly cannot play. She can escape now or remain for eternity there.

The NetherGorgon will attack different areas but give them clues where they can be safe. There are limited spaces to hide in each spot. If he attacks "your" area, you are eliminated.

It's safe to be where crows number more than three, ax, doll with no left arm. (Odd clues indeed.) Blue is out, along with Mecole and Cameron. There were not enough crows on the porch to protect them.

Clues: Keep out sign, seven candles, rats and spiders. Those are the safe area. Jag out. America out. Cirie and Izzy out.

Clues: Any zone six bones, doll with a backwards head, ten links in one chain. Cory out (he threw it), Felicia out, Red out. Bowie Jane out. Down to just Hisam and Jared in it.

Clues: Two doors, search Nether Region for three carvings which lead them to the door. The first to the right door transported to HOH room, loser remains in Nether Region. Jared picks a door first and Hisam has to go to the other one. Hisam's door opens, Jared is stuck there! The carvings all together read "Don't choose the door that starts with 4." Jared had chosen 486 because he was missing a clue and knew 4 was a clue, just not that he wasn't supposed to choose it!

Now Jared is on the screen from the Nether Region. Cirie is worried. Hisam is the new HOH.

So, now the show suggests a showmance with Matt and Reilly. Can't they go until one actually develops? Reilly's crew knows it's a house divided and they will likely lose someone.

Jared is on the screen again. He doesn't say much of what's going on. 

Hisam tells Felicia that Reilly is a target because she mentioned taking him out. He had confronted her, and she admitted it. Felicia said if Reilly goes that whole side will crumble. Hisam talks to Matt. He tells him he knows there is a name for their alliance and Matt denies it. Matt is on the spot and not being all that honest with Hisam.

The ScaryVerse ball is glowing and Jared is back from the Nether Region. They get a clue. Cameron reads the others will be sent to the Nether Region, could be good or bad. Jared has to choose one to send -- that person will be safe from nominations as he/she will not be there. He talks to Hisam who tells him not to send Matt, Reilly or Cameron. He talks to all and is torn. Cirie suggests Jag. Reilly confronts him and begs him to save her.

The Nethergorgon wants the next soul. Jared chooses Jag. Reilly looks upset. She tells us it doesn't make sense that he didn't guarantee her safety. Jag tells us he doesn't know either.

Hisam talks to Izzy and Cirie, tells them that Reilly is his target. Does he put up Cameron or Matt with her? Both women suggest Cameron. Hisam goes on to let Cameron know he may go on the block with Reilly but that she would be the target.

Nominations Ceremony time. Jag shows on the screen. Hisam nominates Reilly, then Cameron. Hisam tells them he is playing with integrity and purpose. Jared feels bad.
