Who dat?
This is really a perplexing season so far. Don't get me wrong ... I'm still watching hoping for a few gems here and there. Actually the biggest drama (because I don't really care anything about Brenchel drama) has been the fact that Daniele has screwed up her game so early and so badly by making premature moves. She didn't have any target on her back before in or out of her alliance because the moves would be to break up the couples first. Oops, Daniele.
Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Misguided Manatees:
- Pre-veto meeting, Kalia went to Brendon with a deal -- take Dominic and Adam off, put her and Lawon up with Lawon going home because she can't stand him.
- Ah, but was this something she hatched to protect Dominic and be in good graces with Daniele?
- Wanna bet?
- I'm not really getting Kalia's gameplay strategy.
- But she does sure snack a lot.
- As does Adam.
- Brendon and Jeff are totally upset with Daniele. Rachel ranges from confused to angry over her betrayal. Jordan is mad, but says "she's a nice girl."
- But Jordan says that about just about everyone.
- Well, at least she says it about the girls, that is.
- Brendon and Rachel told Lawon about Kalia's offer and that Daniele has also pushed for him to be nominated.
- He didn't seem surprised at all.
- Daniele told Brendon she'll be mad if Dominic goes.
- Get ready, mad woman!
- Brendon and Rachel told Daniele that if Jeff goes, it will only make the targets on their (his and Rachel's) backs bigger.
- She snapped and said it's okay, keep Jeff forever!
- That's fine by me.
- Daniele promised that if Dominic stays this week, he won't put up members of either couple if he wins HoH.
- Daniele told Brenchel to keep an eye on Shelly.
- Rachel later told Brendon that she does have doubts about Shelly.
- But I think Brendon is totally sold on Shelly.
- Then the veto meeting went down -- veto not used, Dominic and Adam remain on the block.
- Brendon and Rachel got Porsche to promise she won't put them on the block if she wins HoH this week (gold key winners will be in the comp).
- They also told her that they're sure Daniele is no longer in the alliance. Porsche didn't seem to care, said that Daniele hasn't talked game with her but once in the house. That was two days ago.
- Grr, Jeff. Be cool, dude -- he confronted Dominic telling him he (Dom) had made a stupid move in the game.
- Then he pressed Dominic to tell him who has been talking about backdooring him (Jeff).
- Now, I do know that it's been both Dominic and Daniele for the most part. However, the thought has probably crossed everybody's mind but Jordan's.
- Dominic claimed he was innocent and thinks they should have a house meeting to clear the air.
- I love house meetings -- they usually turn into brouhahas!
- A good solid brouhaha makes this all worthwhile.
- Meanwhile, Brendon enlists Adam's ear in a "we need to get Daniele out as quietly and quickly as possible" discussion.
- Adam, who's still coming across as a bit of a buffoon gamewise to me despite his superfan status, is agreeable.
- But then, the dude is agreeable to just about anything that doesn't have him going out the door.
- Brendon said that Daniele told him right in the beginning that she'd be fine with getting out her father the first week.
- Oh my.
- Of course, the feeds weren't on then, so I don't know if it's true or not.
- Instead of a good brouhaha, conversations turned to exciting stuff like yeast infections.
- Ew.
- The house meeting never happened.
- Dominic seemed more resigned as the evening went on. He's sure he's out the door this week.
- I'm kind of sad to see him go. If he hadn't hooked up with Daniele, he'd be one of the more interesting newbies.
- They all decided they (entire house) would do what they call a "skit" and I call a game.
- All of the guys were blindfolded except Lawon. He was dressed with a huge Afro wig and 70s superfly polyester as the host.
- It was a Bachelorette game -- He would ask a question and one of the girls would whisper the answer to him, then the guys had to guess which girl from the answer.
- Fun, fun, fun.
- So not a good bathroom duck puppets show or even the sock puppets from a few seasons back.
- Right now the veterans (all of them) are having a big meeting in the HoH room. So far it's mainly Jeff and Daniele talking. Daniele is pretty much defending herself while Jeff is pushing to get admissions about talk to backdoor him,
- The rest are basically just sitting there.
- Neither Daniele or Jeff are overly angry at the moment. Jeff wants the veterans to be the final five and can't understand why she'd split off from the group.
- He says he's baffled.
- Rachel takes up the cause and is actually handling it well.
- Daniele claims that she's loyal to the five.
- Liar liar pants on fire.
- I notice neither Brendon nor Rachel are bringing up the fact that Daniele approached them trying to get them to backdoor Jeff.
- So this isn't really clearing the air, nor will it be a good brouhaha unless that comes out.
- Ah, this is just going around in circles.
- I'll report any changes or brouhahas if indeed they occur.
- They didn't buy Daniele's act.
- There ya go.
