Hamster watchers ready?

Yikes! Julie is so ... so ... casually dressed tonight! I don't believe I've ever seen her in jeans.

Let's have a recap! Not here, though. We know what happened during the last week. We had a snippet of the Mark/Josh pickle juice/hot sauce in the face kerfuffle. More to come!

The DoT could stop tonight's live eviction cold, Julie promises.

Dominique stomped out of the Veto meeting. Jessica thinks it just makes her own situation better. Dom thinks her entire team backstabbed her and they would do anything for the money ... but she won't.

Dominique vented at Elena and Elena just wants her out. Mark feels in the middle. Jessica is trying to get in with the others. They're leery, but want Dominique out more.

Yay! The pickle juice/hot sauce fiasco with Josh and Mark. Josh thinks he won the pool game. Mark said he double-hit, scratching on the 8-ball. So Mark throws a glass of pickle juice and hot sauce in Josh's face and eyes. Josh attacks him with salad dressing and ketchup, but not in the eyes. Yell, yell, scream, scream.

Josh yells that Mark tried to get Paul out. He claims he lost all respect for Mark. Everyone gathers. Josh says Mark was plotting against both Christmas and Paul. Josh says he himself has always been honest. Jessica brings up that Josh said he wanted Christmas out. Now Paul thinks Jessica is shady. 

The final Den of Temptation -- Halting Hex. JESSICA wins! She can halt any one of the next four evictions. She accepts the temptation.

Eviction night dies. She has to say the lines three times and there will be no eviction. The consequence seems to be sending the house into a tailspin ... or something like that.

Time for the live vote and eviction. To the living room ...

Jessica - Hi to family and Cody. Not ready to leave, have game left in me.
Dominique - Quotes her speech, own team betrayed me, grateful to CBS, on and on. 

Votes to evict --
Josh - Dominique
Kevin - Dominique
Mark - Dominique
Christmas - Dominique
Jason - Dominique
Raven - Dominique
Matt - Dominique
Elena - Dominique
Paul - Dominique 
Ramses - Dominique

Unanimous. Dominique is gone and Jessica has three more evictions in which she can choose to use the hex once. 

Surprisingly, she's very excited about the Battle Back. Hmm. 

Julie talks to the four first evicted who will be competing to come back in. 

It's getting too late to have the HoH Comp, so I'm guessing (since Julie hasn't announced it) that the four will compete in a combined HoH comp which will air tomorrow night. The feeds are off until midnight tomorrow. 

I'm wrong. Three battles for the Battle Back tomorrow, HoH Sunday. And, Jessica's temptation consequence will be revealed. Hmm.

BB19: HoH Finish, Nominations Show Blog Party - July 16

It seems like so long ago! After all, the live feeds already have Power of Veto done and over with. As tonight's show airs, I'll be live-blogging and updating this entry -- refresh the page to get the latest. As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

And, just to let you know ... I will have a live feeds report up late tonight. Not a heck of a lot happening in there today.

Let's start off with a recap for a change! 

Okay, the HoH comp is on. Jessica knows she'll go on the block if she doesn't win this one. Paul tells us that Cody left him some ammunition in the form of targets that will protect him after his protection is gone. Also known as Dominique, in particular and Mark to a lesser extent.

It's pretty much a typical wall comp, perhaps not as rough as some. Josh is out first. Mark is second down. These endurance comps are hard for larger people.

Back to Paul asking/telling Kevin to vote Ramses to cause chaos.

Back to the wall. Raven goes down. They don't mention she has stitches in her foot. Ramses out. Kevin down. Matt out. 

Dominique tells us she needs to protect her team and stay up longer than Jessica. Whoops ... Jessica down! Dominique drops.

Alex suggests deals. No go from Jason or Elena ... right away. 

Jason tells us he has to stay up until after Elena falls. He's not worried about his ally Alex winning. The three remaining -- Jason, Elena and Alex -- agree none of the three will go on the block. Jason drops, thinking Elena would drop after him. She deals safety with Alex, then drops. Alex is the new HoH! 

Alex wants to not step on toes and get someone good out this week. Paul, of course, has been covering his bases and getting close with her this past week. Jessica wants to unify the floaters to get out the rest of the house. 

Jason talks to Jessica about taking out either Matt or Dominique.  

Alex tells Kevin and Jason she will be putting Jessica on the block. Jason isn't thrilled -- they can use Jessica as an ally. Alex says she HAS to be on the block, backdoor someone else if needed. She's thinking the others would be happy because of the Jessica nom, but she'll convince the house that one of the hamsters is actually a rat. 

Paul knows that Alex is likely to nominate someone from his side of the house. He goes to Alex and tells her that Mark and Dominique are sketchy. Then he tells Mark and Dom that Cody told him the two people working with him (Cody) are Mark and Dominique. Paul's out to create chaos.

Alex talks to Elena because she had made a deal to keep her people safe. Elena is not okay with Mark being on the block! 

Paul continues to work the Dominique/Mark agenda on Alex. Paul would prefer Dominique out over Mark. 

Time for a humorous Kevin/Ramses segment. 

Jessica and Jason get to take off their frog costumes. Into a bit on Raven's health issues. Christmas returns from the hospital -- ten broken bones, four dislocated and needed tendon surgery. Jason feels horrible. She won't get full mobility back. Very sad.

Mark tells Alex he doesn't want to go on the block.  She tells us that although Paul wanted Dominique out, she still wants to go after the showmances. 

Dominique goes to Alex and tells her she thinks there's an undercurrent targeting her or Mark. Alex thinks that Dom is referring to Elena. Alex thinks it's a red flag that Dom is throwing her own people under the bus.

Nominations ceremony time. 

Alex nominates Jessica, then Dominique. Jessica, no connection. Dominque, set up red flags in our talk. 

Alex tells us she wants herself and Paul in the final two.
