The show has started here on the East Coast. I'll be updating this entry as it airs -- please forgive typos and possible errors. Also, all folks are welcome in the comments area. We're in recaps and the Memphis/Jerry fight is to be aired!
Day 17 - Angie expectedto be nominated. Jessie thinks Keesha disrespected him by nominating him. Memphis thinks Keesha made two new enemies. April and Libra tell Kessha she gave good nominations reasons.
Jessie is sure Libra is orchestrating everything -- he'll just win POV and change everything. He warns Michelle that Keesha will probably put her up when he wins POV. Heh, Jerry tells Dan that Jessie is just a bartender and a womanizer.
Jessie goes to HOH and tells Keesha there's no hard feelings. Jessie tells her that Libra is working everybody and that Steven on the block was due to Libra. Libra and April try to go in, but are told to go away. Jessie tells Keesha that Libra is scared. He tells her she can backdoor Libra if he or Angie wins POV. She's acting like she's believing him.
He leaves, April and Libra enter. Jessie goes to Michelle and tells her Libra is gone if they win. (Not quite what Keesha said!)
Time to pick POV players - Jessie doesn't care, no one really is a threat to him, physically or mentally. @@
Keesha picks Libra out of the bag, Angie gets Ollie, Jessie gets ...pause... Memphis. Dan is selected as host. Everyone had to get in green long john type costumes with flower hats. Plant themselves in their flower boxes, put head on headrest. One hour mark without going over wins. Lifting head from headrest lights a light/buzzer. Garden of Veto. Kinda like Chinese water torture.
The water is cold. Angie likens it to a brain freeze from a Slushie. Compost and earthworms are offered -- added thanks to Jerry suggesting the worms, that's what they get. "What's compost?" asks Ollie.
Keesha couldn't take the worms and left the game. Ollie and Libra are the only ones left from that alliance. Jessie makes Libra admit that she wanted Steven on the block. At about 44 minutes, compost is added. Smells like vomit.
Libra thinks it's near an hour, she gets up. Ollie stays for five minutes more to cover bases. Jessie is out. Jessie is still at Libra over the Steven thing. Angie is out, Ollie is out, Memphis is out.
Keesha wins -- everyone else went over an hour by at least fifteen minutes.
Jessie is now telling Angie that she should push for a backdoor Libra. Angie knows Keesha is targeting her. Angie says she has no personal issues and thinks they have a connection because they were both friends with Steven. Angie tells her she'd rather if Keesha use the veto, use it on Jessie, put up Libra. She doesn't think she can stay another week with Libra.
Keesha tells April that Libra has a target on her. Ollie joins them, agrees with them about Libra. Ollie doesn't trust her. Keesha tells the DR that she might have to cut Libra loose, but she's given her her word.
Now Jessie wants to talk to Keesha again. He tells her he wants her to use it on him. She tells him he has no worries. He gets all upset -- cheeks redden and everything. He goes on yet another anti-Libra rant. She tells him she gave her word and can't break it."I'm in jail. I'm in jail for the wrong reasons. I can't sleep. Falsely accused." He's begging now. She tells him she's listening, but she gave Libra her word.
We get to choose America's Player for one week. Target for noms, vote out of house. The HG we vote for could refuse to accept. The HG chosen gets 20 grand.
Jessie thinks he gave Keesha all the answers to everything. Keesha tells Renny Jessie is constantly at the door. He can't sleep, he can't eat. He goes at them about keeping Libra in the house. Dan, April, and Renny roll their eyes. Keesha tells Libra about him. Jerry joins Libra, April, and Keesha.
Jerry tells her to tell him the room is closed. She tells Michelle she won't go back on her word to Libra, then it's to Memphis and Angie. To Jessie who's outside of her HOH room. (I caught this part on video the other day.) Aw, they cut it and don't show the Jerry/Jessie fight.
A banner flies over and they couldn't read it before being put inside. They decide to make up something. -- Memphis, Angie, Jessie, Michelle. They said it said "Keesh, Libra is a liar, love Steven." Libra is doubtful. Memphis says everyone is out to get everyone. He never wanted anyone out but Jerry. He called him a womanizer ... he starts screaming at Jerry. Jerry is just sitting there. They cut Memphis telling he'd shove Jerry's head down his throat, but kept the essence of the fight.
Veto meeting time. Keesha says everybody is driving her insane. Her mind is made up and no one can change it. Jessie thinks Keesha is in a wrong mindset if she keeps him on the block. @@
Angie: Very tough week for you, Keesha. Regreted some of the decisions I've made, but true to myself.
Jessie: He talks about his parents and family, justified actions, if I threw everybody under the bus, they did it to me for nominating me. You can make it right.
She chose not to use the veto.
Libra says she owes Keesha. Jessie thinks they're all liars "you hose me, then you hose me again." He says if they don't vote him out, it will be their biggest mistake. Angie hopes Jessie does himself in.
