BB25: Power of Veto Show Live Blog and Party - Aug. 23

 

Good evening! I hope everyone is well. Again, I want to thank all those who have made donations to the blog. I've found that the Buy Me a Coffee link makes it hard to send thank you notes. So, thanks go out to Judi, Kim, Penny, CherryPie, Sharon M, Connie and Caela. I'm still getting ones from outside of the USA coming in as failed. If anyone reading this sent in a failed donation, I do appreciate the effort!

Tonight is the Veto comp episode. We have Jag and Cameron on the block. Will one be saved? Some of us might already know, but ... shhh. Let them show it on the show!

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

Sitting through the previously on segment.

We open the action with the nomination ceremony ending. Felicia is dead set on backdooring Hisam. Cameron and Jag are in on the plan. We see all the fake BB hugs after the ceremony. I just couldn't do that. Hisam thinks he can relax now. He thinks no one wants to target him.

Felicia told everyone about the backdoor Hisam plan. Well, everyone except Red because she thinks he might tell Hisam. Of course, Hisam doesn't know about it.

Blue is sad about Jag being on the block and cries to Hisam about it. But, nope ... she tells us it's all an act.

Oh, geez. Blue and America are going to make Cory release his inner fashionista. Heh. He's all in pink Womens' clothes. He is taking it well. I bet his Survivor brother is jealous!

Felicia, Izzy and Hisam are talking. Hisam doesn't want to play for veto as he has won too much already and feels safe with the Professors. He just wants to enjoy this week. Izzy wants to play.

Mecole is going crazy with all the talking and sometimes even the subject matter. She goes to the storage room to vent to herself. Then there's all the crying. Poor Mecole. I can identify with her on this!

Cameron goes and tells Red, the only one not knowing about the Hisam backdoor plan. He wants Red to know that he's his number one. Red thought it was earlier than he thought and is not comfortable about his own alliance planning it without him knowing. He wants to talk to Felicia.

She tells him Jag is the target. He throws Hisam's name out there just to see his reaction. She tells us someone had to tell him. She asks him what he thinks of the move. He seems on board. Cirie and Bowie Jane are also in the room. Red tells us he agrees with the plan but feels left out of the alliance.

Red tells us he wants Cameron to come into the Professors alliance. He tells all to Cameron. Oy. He tells us he will be happy to take that spot.

To the Blue/Jared showmance. Cirie is NOT happy. She lets him know.

Time to pick players for the veto comp! Felicia draws Houseguest's Choice chip and chooses Izzy. Cameron draws Houseguest's Choice, too. He goes for Red. Jag draws Cory. Of those, only Cameron has played a veto comp before.

The veto comp-- a chicken coop set-up, a pool of green sludge. It's the ComicVerse. Winner will be the next Humanimal. Go through sludge, lay an egg roughly by doing the Chicken Dance. Transfer a dozen eggs. Winner will be CockadoodleZoom (?) the rest of the week. Red braided his beard for the comp. They get covered with goop of their own individual colors while laying the eggs.

Jag wins the Power of Veto!


Felicia thinks the plan is all coming together.

Uh-oh. Jag gets his Cockadoodle Zoom costume. It is the best chicken costume BB has ever had. He makes a rap for it.

Hisam tells Felicia that Matt should go up in Jag's place. She rather noncommittally says Matt or Blue. He warns her against putting Blue up. He insists it needs to be Matt. "Do you go after a king or a knight?" he asks Izzy. Izzy tells Cirie, Felicia and MATT. Now Felicia is talking about using that line in the veto meeting.

Time for the veto meeting. As expected, Jag saves himself. Felicia nominates Hisam with his own words ... taking out a king. She puts him up as the renomination. He looks shocked. Everybody is subdued. Hisam looks almost catatonic. Cameron feels safe. Matt calls it payback. Hisam tells us it's shocking. He vows guilt as revenge.

We get the pressure cooker comp tease again for tomorrow night!

BB25: Live Feeds into Wednesday Morning - Aug. 23


Hamsters do love their greens!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap:

  • Hisam continues to make his rounds and is all of a sudden thinking he's everybody's best friend.
  • He promises them loyalty and integrity!
  • It's not surprising that he once campaigned to be the mayor of Seattle.
  • He lost that one, too.
  • Yes, it looks like he's still out the door tomorrow night. It may be a bit early but if they don't get him out now, he's the biggest threat to at least make it to the final two.
  • Most just sit and nod as he talks nonending loyalty loops at them.
  • He honestly can't comprehend that people don't like the way he talks to them. That's not a good thing for a psychiatrist!
  • Jared and Blue made it to the make out under covers stage.
  • Yet he keeps telling Cirie it's nothing.
  • Hearing his views on women, it probably is nothing to him.
  • That's sad.
  • Meanwhile America is still trying to work on a Cory showmance.
  • I respect Cory so much more as he resists. He's an astute player of the game but I think his name is being mentioned too much already. He doesn't need a showmance thrown in there.
  • Matt and Jag seem very accepted into the Cirie group.
  • Oh, the Savage Seven -- Cirie, Felicia, Matt, Jag, Izzy, Jared and Blue -- have changed their name. 
  • They are now the Seven Deadly Sins. Matt suggested each one be a sin. However, they can't think of all of them. Felicia turned to her bible but couldn't find it right away.
  • I have Google, though. 
  • Pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony and sloth.
  • I'll try to name each one.
  • I tell you right now that Lust will suffer the wrath of Wrath over Gluttony when Wrath finds out they are making out!
  • Sloths have adorable faces. Matt will have to be Sloth. I know Izzy must be Envy! Felicia would have to be Pride which leaves Jag as Greed.
  • I hope Jag is greedy enough to win this as I have him in the blog pool!
  • Now Jag made a final two deal with America, getting her to tell all she knows about Cory's strategic plans. Maybe he is Greed!
  • Blue and America keep sharing intel. Hmm.
  • Red and Cameron are still in their bromance despite Red talking so much to the Ex-Professors. He doesn't know they merged into a new group without him.
  • I will give Red credit for being the best slop cook in the house. He has come up with some very edible dishes.
  • The slop is really affecting Matt. He's tired all the time.
  • It doesn't help that Hisam kept Jag and Matt up all kinds of hours talking at them the night before.
  • The ex-Professors minus Hisam met up and decided their next nominations would be Blue and Jag with America as a renom. Okaay.
I had to search and I'm glad someone posted this new "alliance" with America, Jag and Cory --


Best slop cook of the season!

Not the best use of an ivy school education.

The Fields family plays bumper pool.

Jared with his adopted brother and grandma.

Meme's name is getting tossed around a lot.

The 7 Deadly Sins minus 2. Where are the 2?

Oh, there they are!

BB25: Live Feeds into Tuesday Morning - Aug. 22

 

Can't you just feel the love?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Perplexing Purposes:

  • As you know from my last post, at the veto meeting Jag took himself off the block and Hisam went up in his place.
  • No, there were no fisticuffs, no brouhahas either.
  • If there were, they were while the feeds were blocked. But no one was sporting any new wounds and nothing was brought up about that in talks.
  • Hisam is hurt. Hisam is disappointed. Hisam feels betrayed. Hisam is wondering what he did wrong to deserve this.
  • The Hisam Apology Tour started, tickets to attend cost nothing ... just your time and nodding appropriately is expected.
  • He apologized to EVERYONE.
  • Those he hadn't been working with, he said he could work with in the future.
  • Those he had been working with, he told them although hurt his door is still open.
  • Before the veto meeting, Hisam told Izzy that they should put up Cory and Jared next week. He didn't mention that in his apologies.
  • You can guess how Izzy took that!
  • America and Cory are getting closer and closer. 
  • It seems America just wants a showmance and Cory doesn't.
  • I think Cory is smart not to play her game.
  • Meanwhile, the Jared/Blue whatever continues. At this point if they each hurt their own game, I don't care. Just don't take any collateral with you.
  • Jared has made some statements that make me cringe. He's sounding quite misogynistic. Grr. Plus, he calls everybody, male or female, "bro." If he did that to me, "I am NOT your bro. Do you want to keep that kneecap in one piece?"
  • America and Blue are talking more and more.
  • Meme seems to be on the outskirts.
  • Red and Cameron are still a couple. Nah, not romantically a couple -- just a bromance.
  • In addition to the every season ant problems, it seems the big cockroaches are a problem in the house this year.
  • No, I'm not talking about Cameron and Red!
  • I'm talking the actual bugs. 
  • Jag and Matt do seem willing to work with The Ex-Professors.
  • America seems mistrusted by just about everyone, as does Red. More distrust Blue as each day passes.
  • It does seem that some folks are considering trying to keep Hisam.
  • But I doubt that would happen.

I'm transparent, honest and have integrity!

Jag is not a late night Reilly replacement.

Listening to Hisam after the veto meeting.

Always observant but needs to mingle more.

Ew! Now Blue has America roller banging!

BB25: Veto Meeting Over Bulletin - Aug. 21

 

Why she wears a hair roller ...

Thanks to a commenter here on the blog I found the history/mystery behind Blue's silly bangs hair roller. It's a new Korean Gen Z thing as described in this article. I guess we did silly things at that age. 

But that's probably not what you came here for. We had an extended We'll Be Right Back Nether Region blockage (ew!). Apparently there may have been problems with the signal or power with the adoptable animals feed. Then the volume increased (they really need to check that!) and we got the adoptable animals. When the feeds finally came back after HOURS ... Hisam is on the block in Jag's place. He thinks he will look like an absolute moron. He's been honest and open with them, they will see.

UPDATE: Whoa, they are talking about Security being called in. Oh my. Ah, not as exciting as it sounds. Bowie Jane and Izzy were talking about it. It sounds like they were just there as stand by in case of problems.

Not taking it well

Matt's hat and sunglasses make a creepy face!

BB25: Live Feeds into Monday - Aug. 21

 

I can see clearly now ...


Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Hurricane Hamsters:
  • They know it's raining hard. They can hear it. Yesterday a few were talking about how they thought it never rained in Southern California.
  • Gee, that could be a song!
  • Yes, it can rain there. I used to live not far away from where they are. I will say it didn't rain often and I never saw a tropical storm while there.
  • Bowie was talking about the roof leaking a bit. But I saw no deluge.
  • BB, in a feeds block, must have told them about the storm and the earthquake north of them as Hisam mentioned both happening. However, it doesn't seem that any of the hamsters even noticed the earthquake.
  • Alliances continued to grow, shrink, meld, form ... you name it.
  • The newest large one is the Savage Seven -- Cirie, Matt, Jag, Blue, Jared, Felicia and Izzy.
  • We'll see how long that lasts.
  • Izzy cried because she feels/knows that she's at the bottom of her original alliance of four.
  • Heck, she's been at the bottom since the day she joined up with Cirie and Jared.
  • The Jared and Blue thing is getting way too much live feeds attention. No, they are not having sex. But, yes, they talk so much about dating stuff, clubs, how Jared wants not to hurt his girl at home, how Blue has someone at home, how Jared's mother was on a reality show .... screech those brakes!
  • Yes, he actually said that. Thankfully Blue is a recruit. She doesn't watch any of the shows.
  • Meanwhile, Jared is telling others he would have no problem voting out Blue if it came to it.
  • I know, just with some of the things he's said, if his mother was not in the house, he would be blatantly sexual with her not caring about cameras or his "girl at home."
  • Jared goes between saying Blue is nothing to saying it's serious.
  • Gag me with a spoon, please.
  • Red and Cameron want to mobilize against Cirie and company. They think Cirie calls the shots.
  • Yes, she does.
  • Hisam continues on being his merry little self.
  • The Veto Meeting will be later today.
  • We'll see how happy he is after that.

Is America floating through the storm?

Hisam still feels safe.

Has Meme abandoned ship?

Maybe Cirie should check on Jared!

And Izzy cried ...

He took his huge chicken feet off.

Cameron knows it all ... just ask him.

Cory has a showmance!

BB25: HOH Show Blog Party - Aug. 20

 


Good evening! I guess we can totally forget the idea of BB ever having the HOH comp on the Thursday live show ever again. They have made it the Sunday show regular fodder. I guess that does give them something better than the filler stuff they used to show on Sunday nights. But at least show the comps on the live feeds as they go down after the live show!

That aside ... I will be live blogging this show, constantly updating this entry as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest updates! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

Let's start off with a recap! I guess the show is getting what they want -- a showmance segment is expected.

We pick up the new action after Reilly's Memory Wall photo went grey. There's a movement to get Hisam out with Cameron leading the charge. Cirie thinks it's great that it would be Cameron with the blood on his hands. Blue is crying to us about Reilly leaving. Now Jag, but no tears. We do see Reilly telling her alliance to vote with the house and not risk their games for her.

She's gone and Matt cries. Jag and Blue are with him but can't do much to console him.

Hisam is all dressed up like a bad salesman to host the HOH comp. A bunch of large noses are in the yard. The comp is Snot a Winner from the Humiliverse. It's one of the crap shoot type comps having them roll a ball and eventually hit a number. Two lowest are Have Nots.

Matt 10. Cory 20. Mecole 27. Two fives in a row, one America, the other Red. Cirie 29. Izzy 45. Felicia 53. Jag ... into commercial ... 37. Blue 12. Cameron 27. Jared 42. Bowie Jane 48.

FELICIA WINS THE HOH COMP!

Red, America and Matt are Have Nots for the two lowest scores. Felicia has to, when called, take snot showers, each time choosing someone to go with her. First snot, green slime and she chose Bowie.

Blue seems to be crying to us over nothing. Hisam is sure he's safe this week and feels amazing! Matt and America talk -- they both think they are probably safe this week. More tears from Matt about Reilly. He tells us he's not sure where he stands with Felicia.

Izzy tells us it should be a backdoor plan and Cirie confirms it. Cirie, Izzy and Felicia talk in the HOH Room - we saw no HOH room reveal or letter from home or anything. Felicia is considering the backdoor Hisam but she doesn't want the HOHship to come back to bite her.

More snotting. This time she brings Blue. Izzy next. Jared. 3:05AM -- Jag. Matt. They all have to watch from the stands. Hisam.

Hisam talks to Felicia in the HOH. He tells her he wants Jag out. She tells him she was thinking Cameron. He tells her Jag is aligned with Matt and Blue -- Matt should be put up with him.

Jared and Blue are flirting. Jared tells us he can't see himself showmancing just yet ... but. Definitely a flirtmance. He tells us she's bluetiful. 

Felicia talks to Jag, telling him she needs him and Cameron to be the pawns. Jag is worried. He knows pawns can go home. Felicia tells him she needs Jag to be comfortable. He would be comfortable with Jag on the block.

Matt is talking to Cirie and Izzy. They are getting to know each other. He tells us it was good to talk to them about his disability. Cirie tells us Matt is educating her about deafness and Matt himself.

Cameron's turn in the HOH room to talk to Felicia. She tells him that she wants to backdoor Hisam and would like to use him as a pawn and to try to win the Veto. Felicia tells us their hope is that Cam will win the veto.

Time for the Nominations Ceremony. And, of course, it's Snot-o'clock. Cory has to go with her. That's the last one, punishment over. In slime, she has to go through with the ceremony. She nominates Jag, then Cameron. She says they had court today, it was in session and thank you all for attending. She tells us again the plan is to Backdoor Hisam.

Both nominees vow to win and want Hisam gone. Hisam tells us he doesn't need to win any comps right now and feels safe.

BB25: Live Feeds into Sunday Morning - Aug. 20

 

Sometimes life is a chicken playing pool.

My head hurts. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Chaos Critters:
  • If you didn't catch my last live feeds update, Jag won the Power of Veto.
  • We all know he will take himself off the block.
  • Then there's that big Blindside Hisam that will kick in.
  • After all, everyone in the house except Hisam is in on it. It's all come coming to fruition just as planned!
  • Scratch that plan. That car crashed. Think of last week, rinse and repeat.
  • Wait, let's put that plan right back up there. Maybe if we throw it at the wall, it'll stick!
  • Yep, you got it.
  • Like last week but even earlier as now it's all about the renom, not the actual vote.
  • Red should go up! No, Blue should go up! Let's put America up! Is Meme still on our side? Will America and Meme (Mecole) flip to that other side? How about Bowie? What's that Cory up to now? 
  • Felicia plans to tell Hisam that they spread the blindside story to see who talked.
  • It's outright dizzying. I think I'm in some kind of sensory overload here.
  • The latest seems to be back to Blindside Hisam. That, mind you, is subject to change at any moment. Or not.
  • About the only one not on the Cirie/Felicia side who hasn't been a serious option of theirs for renom is Matt. They really like him.
  • Plus, Matt, hearing issue put aside, is very unfamiliar with the game itself and just seems like a very nice guy.
  • Hisam remains oblivious to all of this going on and remains in his Nice Guy persona. (Unlike his Power Guy persona.)
  • In other news, like Felicia's sliming showers HOH punishment, Jag has a chicken suit punishment for winning Power of Veto.
  • Jared is still playing his "I have a secret" bit while flirting with Blue.
  • Cirie thinks that Blue is playing Jared and might be off of it now because he declined kissing her due to all the cameras.
  • Me? I think it's a dangerous thing for him and eventually he will tell her about Cirie.
  • Whose game would that blow? Probably more Cirie's than his own.
  • One of the interesting things they discussed is the lack of BB supplying them alcohol this year. While Jared was a bit wrong telling Blue that BB used to give alcohol each week after the live show -- wrong as they go into HOH comp -- he's right that they would get it.
  • Now, so far, only in the HOH basket there is alcohol. Last week, since Hisam doesn't drink, he gave it all away to others.
  • Maybe production thinks if they mix alcohol into this mess, they will all have motion sickness.
  • Anyway ... in case I made you dizzy and confused reporting on the dizziness and confusion in the house ... the latest plan at the moment is back to Blindside Hisam.
  • If so, Felicia might even use Hisam's own words when nominating him. 
  • In his constant push to have Matt be the target, he told Izzy, "Why get a knight out when you can get a king?"
  • We have a day to go before the veto meeting, so the plan might change 423 times between now and then.

We need to get Matt out.

Matt is endearing himself with Cirie.

No way will you go on the block, Matt!

Will she flip sides?

Too many know. We need to stick to the plan.

BB25: Live Feeds - We Have a Veto Winner - Aug. 19

 


The live feeds were blocked to both the veto picks and the comp.

Veto players were Felicia, Jag and Cameron with picks of Cory, Izzy and Red. Bowie hosted.

When the feeds returned after the comp, Jag was wearing the veto necklace and a big Santa hat over his turban. He was all gooey and took an outdoor shower. The plan is in motion.

Showering off the goo

BB25: Live Feeds into Saturday - Aug. 19

 

I sense danger ahead ... maybe.


Good morning! What are those Rascally Rabbits up to inside the Big Brother House? Here goes:
  • Okay, now every single person except Hisam knows of the Backdoor Hisam plan.
  • Y'see, Cameron couldn't resist telling Red, the only one beside Hisam who wasn't in on it, the plan.
  • Red told him he wanted to bring it up to Felicia.
  • No! No! Cameron told him to keep it to himself.
  • But what if I suggested the idea to Felicia to see how she reacts? 
  • No! No! Just leave it alone!
  • But could Red leave it alone?
  • Nope.
  • He was talking to Bowie (who has been seen more in the last few days than in the last few weeks) and told her he really wanted to talk to Felicia because he felt like something was going on and he wasn't in on it.
  • Bowie ran to Izzy, then Felicia to warn her.
  • So, the talk went down.
  • As they talked, with both Bowie and Cirie in the room, Felicia told him her plan was to evict Jag. If Jag or he (Cameron) came off the block, it would be Matt on the block.
  • Red kept talking and suggested that this could be the opportunity to backdoor someone ... someone the whole house would go for.
  • That was enough for Felicia to suggest Hisam.
  • Red was all over that suggestion and acted all gung-ho.
  • He said that Hisam was NOT in the room when the original Professors started but he (Red) was.
  • He suggested bringing in Cameron in the Professors to replace Hisam. Um. Er. He still has no clue that if all doesn't work out, it will be Cameron going home instead of Jag.
  • By the way, Red's hillbilly accent all but disappears unless he's playing his persona for the camera or to entertain others.
  • Will Red not tell Hisam?
  • I think he just might keep the secret. If he's thinking long term, Hisam is so good at comps and is a huge threat. Plus, he thinks he has the Professors plus side alliances.
  • Actually, he is on the short list for eviction with many in the house, both major sides.
  • I'm not sure that evicting Hisam will bring both sides of the house together as much as some of the hamsters think it will. But most are saying now that that's one goal and mini-alliances between camps are indeed forming. Will they last? I just don't know.
  • Meanwhile, Hisam is as happy as a clam at high tide -- when the predators are away. He thinks it's a smooth ride this week.
  • He has told others he doesn't want to play for or win the veto and feels he needs to back off winning comps for a bit. He is sure Jag will be voted out or Matt will be a replacement nomination and he will be evicted.
  • Everyone wants him to keep thinking that. They need him to think that for the plan to come to fruition.
  • The problem I see with the plan, other than a possible veto win by Hisam, is that too many people know and there is too much time to keep it secret. Of course, by after the Monday veto meeting if all goes down, all will be in the open. That should be very entertaining!
  • In other secrets news -- Jared and Blue.
  • They are getting closer and closer.
  • Jared told her he has a secret but can't say it all right now. Hmm.
  • Now, to his credit, he did lie in the bits he told her.
  • He told her his mother lived in CT, his Pops in NJ. That much may be true. I really don't know the status of Cirie and his father.
  • He went on to tell her he has 11 brothers and mentioned at least one sister. As far as I know, he has two brothers in real life, no sisters.
  • Then he made comments about knowing what the aftermath of being on a game show like this would be ... as he was on one before. But then he cut off saying he can't say any more about it.
  • Oh my. If he's telling her all of this less than three weeks into the show, how is the secret about his mother going to last three months?
  • There is a lot of buzz going around about the Jared/Blue showmance.
  • Right now, I see them growing closer and closer talking. 
  • Will it go physical? With Cirie in the house, I don't think he would dare. But, then again, he is indeed a grown man even if Cirie thinks of him as her little baby boy. I personally can't see the two of them clicking after the game unless he wins. An exterminator, unless he owns the company, doesn't really jibe with a social media influencer type too well.
  • I do wish he would tell her to stop wearing that stupid roller on her bangs 24/7 except during comps and the live shows. I don't even see what effect it has on her bangs!
  • That's the major excitement of the feeds into the time they all bedded down.
  • The POV comp is today.
  • When I know, you will know.
  • Laters!

Blue ain't nothin' to him. Yeah, right.

Practicing his sad face.

Backdoor Hisam? Cool, Red!

I felt left out of the loop.

BB25: Live Feeds - Nominations are in! - Aug. 18

 


The live feeds were blocked for the nominations ceremony -- at least at the start. We had a hot mic session for the start of it all! They already had adoptable animals for a good half hour or more. I had the feeds minimized and volume low when I heard, "It's time for the nominations ceremony." Say what?!? Heh. Numerous invites from Felicia trying to get the line right telling them to gather for the nominations ceremony! The producer is telling them to check their mics. Maybe he should check his! He lectured them on mic placement, then WHAM. The theme music blared. So, we know the actual ceremony started at 6:45PM ET.

However, the feeds came back at 7:20PM ET. As expected, Felicia nominated Jag and Cameron. No fireworks, no fisticuffs. Hisam thinks just about everything is going as planned. Um, yeah, Hisam. We'll know more about going to plan after the veto comp tomorrow. Wink, wink.

If you are unaware of the plan, check out my last post.

BB25: Live Feeds Pre-Nominations - Aug. 18

 

Whatever will Felicia do?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of a Geriatric Gerbil HOH:

  • As you know from my last post, Felicia won HOH.
  • Yes, really.
  • Of course, Cirie and Izzy are in her ear.
  • But the plan is in motion and, so far, she's handling the HOH one on ones so much nicer than did Hisam.
  • Oh? The plan?
  • Put up Cameron and someone else from the other side, someone wins the veto, Hisam gets backdoored.
  • If it goes to fruition, we're likely to see another unanimous vote, hopefully the last of the season.
  • Matt, bereft and teary last night over the loss of Reilly, did cheer up when, in his talk with Felicia, she assured him she won't put him on the block no matter what.
  • She says she knows she herself is an underdog as is he due to his hearing issues. No way will she put his game in danger.
  • (At least, not at this time.)
  • She also told him of the backdoor Hisam plan.
  • She talked to Jag telling him she will most likely put him up as a pawn with Cameron. If no one uses the veto, Cameron is the one who has rubbed folks the wrong way, not him. Cam would be evicted.
  • She told him of the Backdoor Hisam plan.
  • Jag brought up Hisam winning the veto and taking Cam off.
  • In reply, she told him her replacement would be Red and Red has less folks backing him than Jag.
  • Jag told her he would rather the sides dissipate and everyone each play their own games. She said that would be a lot less stressful.
  • Even though all were ticked at Jag yesterday for apparently going around shortly before the live show saying the vote had flipped trying to get people to keep Reilly, he is not the target this week.
  • Matt, America and Jag compared notes. All believe Felicia is being honest.
  • Now, is this her real plan?
  • I actually think so. I'm a bit irked at BB production people who keep switching off feeds when I'm trying to follow a conversation.
  • So, there's always a chance I might miss something.
  • However, even though Hisam is back to nice guy again, he had every single person in the house angry at his HOH reign -- and that had only a bit to do with nominating Reilly. It's the way he treats people when he has power, plus the fact that he's made himself a huge threat in comps. There may not be another great opportunity.
  • Hisam has been told Jag is the target. He pushed for her to put Matt up with Jag just as Cirie said he would.
  • Nope. Not gonna happen, Hisam!
  • He's thrilled to death that Felicia won. He may change his mind Monday.
  • Red has not been told of the Backdoor Hisam plan.
  • Jag will play sad and campaign. Everyone plans to play along.
  • Mecole is thinking the maths are mathing a bit better this week, will probably play along with the plan. Last week it would have just made a mad Hisam in the house. This week, if he goes, it doesn't matter how mad he is and it does break down the two sides in a combined effort.
  • In other news, Matt and (I believe) America are Have Nots.
  • Plus, BB is taking turns slime-showering all of them.
  • Ew.
  • In yet other news, Felicia got spices she requested in her HOH basket. She has a point -- garlic salt is NOT as good as garlic powder. Not the same at all.
  • I will update after nominations come in, I'll post a bulletin.
