Sure, they're all asleep now with their little hamster dreams in their little hamster heads. But here's what happened before they went for the sleep of the innocent. Okay, not so innocent:
- Jerry, April, and Ollie think there will be a war if the One Mind Alliance doesn't vote April's way this week.
- In a moment alone with a camera, Dan looked up and asked if America has ever been the swing vote on the show. He's assuming since he had to target Jessie for nominations, the next move by America would be to vote Jessie out.
- In the camera talk, Dan vowed to Steven that he will get Libra out of the house -- she's running wild.
- Memphis thinks that (if he stays), Dan will team up with him and Keesha. Memphis wants either Ollie or April out, but prefers April out first.
- April told Ollie that if Dan votes Jessie out, she will get in his face and tell him he shouldn't be a teacher since he went back on his word.
- Whoa, son of a preacher man! Ollie, while talking to April, used a derogatory term for homosexuals to describe Dan.
- April is worried about the votes this week. She thinks she's on Jessie's alliance now.
- Dan continued to work with Michelle -- pronouncing her "r's" that is.
- They sang Happy Birthday to Libra. Despite threats to vandalize her cake by Michelle, that didn't happen.
- iLibra got all weepy about her kids and cried.
- Ollie and April had sex again. @@
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.
Can you say recap? I knew you could. The HOH is on again, Memphis and Keesha have a friendship. Cat fights ahead. Now we have the nominations again. It should go to color momentarily. Day 25 color. Memphis isn't surprised, but doesn't like that he's nominated with Jessie as Jessie is his ally. Jessie is the pawn, but Michelle thinks the pawn usually goes home. April doesn't care that some of her alliance wants Jessie out. She promised to keep him safe.
Jessie is a bit worried as he talks to April and Ollie.
Dan's America's Player -- he has to hug Jessie for ten seconds. He's cracking up over it. He plans on telling Jessie a sob story about his girlfriend Monica. He says Jessie's actually a softy. He cries and wonders if she'll still be there for him. Jessie is actually being very nice. The hug clocked at 17 seconds. Task completed.
Time to pick players for PoV -- April gets Michelle. Jessie is happy about that. Jessie got Libra. Memphis got Jerry. Renny is the host. April is a bit worried about Jerry and Libra. HOH room meeting -- all aboard. April is worried that Memphis will get PoV. If Jerry gets a pick your nose comp, he'd do well -- April re: Jerry. Libra is getting upset because people seem to be doubting her. She's upset and leaves. She says it hurts.
April said to Ollie that Libra has an excuse for every comp she's lost. Now Keesha is upset about people telling her who she can talk to or not in the house. Jessie runs to April and Ollie about Keesha saying people are talking about her. Jessie is so proud of his stirring the pot. "It'll get ugly. Out comes the temper now," says April.
Ollie gives April some encouragement as she heads back out of HOH. Libra is saying her feelings are hurt. April claims she didn't yell at her or raise her voice. Libra said she didn't say anyone yelled at her, she just didn't deserve to be spoken to that way. Keesha is mad when April mentioned Steven. Keesha asks Michelle if she said anything to April about Mempphis.
Keesha is steaming in the kitchen. It's her birthday. Keesha can't stand April's [bleepin] guts. She confronts April. Cat fight. MEOW! April does look ganged up upon. MEOW! Libra realizes that someone (Jessie) listened through the wall and reported. April admits it was Jessie who told her. Now they're mad at Jessie.
Jerry arrives. Memphis is making fun of it and Jerry tells the girls that. Now Renny is snapping at Jerry. She doesn't like the Colonel's finger in her face. She tells Memphis that Jerry ratted him out for making fun of the cat fight.
Birthday cake. Tears, crying for the birthday girl. They try to make Keesha feel good about it. Libra is still with April. Uh-oh. Jessie realizes that they know he can hear them through the wall.
Now Libra is confronting Jessie. Conversation endeed -- you don't run me, you don't own me -- Libra to Jessie. Jessie can't get a word in. His cheeks turn red when he gets flustered. As they scream at each other, the focus to the cake and Keesha's teary face is priceless. April is just sitting there. Some birthday. They all gather in the kitchen. It's the most pathetic singing of Happy Borthday I've ever heard. They all look like they want to kill.
Libra apologizes. Jessie apologizes for "being honest." Michelle doesn't think they know what the fight is about. Keesha throws Jessie under the bus for reporting to them. The fight starts all over again. Blurred gestures galore. Arrogant and a troublemaker. He claims he was "woke up." Libra just claps. "Hey, Memphis ... every day is a new day!" Libra says. Jessie ain't sitting too pretty with the house on the whole.
PoV comp time -- They have sports jerseys and hockey sticks. Jessie is sure he'll win. The Slapshot Comp is about to begin. Shoot for center section of net. Person eliminated at the end of each round wins a prize, one is a veto. The eliminated person can keep the prize or exchange it. Player triumphant after five rounds has choice of any of the prizes including veto.
Michelle is three away from Veto. Libra two away. April 2 away. Jessie four away. Jerry three away. (Veto is in center.) Memphis didn't even hit the net. He's eliminated. He wins the PoV ... but someone will take it.
Round two -- Libra five, April one, Jessie four, Jerry three, Michelle misses the net. She gets a Hawiian holiday. She's thrilled. She keeps the vacation for herself thinking Jessie could get PoV.
April one way, Jerry three away, Jessie eight away. Libra seven away. Jessie is eliminated. He gets a Slop Surprise. He takes the veto from Memphis.
Round four -- Jerry and Libra both two away, April with seven away out. She gets $10,000 in BB gold bars -- she can transfer money to others or keep it. It's real money upon eviction. She decides to keep it. Final round -- Libra perfect score. Jerry three away. He's out. He gets a letter from home. They're going to split the ten grand three ways and takes the PoV from Jessie. Jessie gets the letter from home and looks unhappy. Libra is the slapshot champion and wins the red unitard -- used. She trades it and takes Michelle's Hawaii trip and Michelle gets the unitard. Michelle glares and cries and swears in the DR. Onto Memphis slop surprise -- he gets a one week slop pass redeemable at any time, but must choose one person to eat slop for the week. He chose Jerry for the slop. Jerry isn't surprised.
Michelle goes to Jessie ... "I'm done, I'm done." She's really uspet. "What kind of mother doesn't take the letter from home." "Her kids should be taken away, Whore, slut skank" She's been nothing but made a fool out of ... DR gets her back from now on. Jessie even tells her he'll buy her a trip to Hawaii. He is being sweet to her.
April is a bit concerned even though the deal was that Jerry won't use the POV. Time for the meeting -- Jessie: I know why I'm here and respect what you do (roughly). Memphis -- I don't expect you to take me off. We've had problems from day one. Whatever you do best for your game. Jerry doesn't use the POV. Man, Michelle looks sullen.
Memphis isn't surprised that Jerry didn't use it -- he has time to secure votes. Jessie is sure he won't be voted out. April wants Memphis out even though her alliance wants Jessie out. After all, she's there to win the money, not her alliance win it.
Next AP assignment -- Dan vote to evict.
I like the BB10 toaster! My latest live feeds report is up over on TV Squad. Please stop back later for tonight's show live-blogging!
Here are the latest doings from that Big Brother House of Society's Ills:
- When Dan was coaching the Swim Club (Ollie and Renny), Michelle got irked that they made a secret of it when she asked about it.
- Memphis agreed he wouldn't put up Keesha and Libra if he stays and wins HOH.
- Ollie told April she wears too much make-up. Heh.
- Ollie and April were laughing because they've been having sex and no one knows it. Yeah, right. The silly hamsters might not know, but we do. And, their parents know, too!
- Libra, April, and Ollie once again talked about Dan. They thinks he's odd and possibly something like America's Player.
- They know he's throwing comps. And he asks too many questions.
- So they confronted him. He hemmed and hawed, got nervous, talked about his mother raising him, never having met a gay person before, and ended up going to the Diary Room.
- Libra thinks that they made him very nervous asking him about himself. April and Ollie think he won't ask as many questions as he has been.
- Olie told April he didn't want to be in the house with loud annoying people. April translated that into Libra. April knows that Libra wants Memphis to stay and is playing mind games with them about it.
- April and Ollie had sex again. But, shhh ... no one knows.
- It seems likely that Keesha, Libra, Dan, and Renny will vote for Jessie to leave this week.
- Jessie doesn't know that.
- All are asleep as I post this.
