I have a live feeds post yet to appear over on TVS and I'll be writing the full review/recap of tonight's show there, too. But in the meantime, the show has started here - finally after a golf delay. This post will be updates as it airs here on the East Coast -- please forgive any typos! Everyone is welcome to join in with comments, that's the best part of the live blog!
Recap City ... we have to see Jessie voted out again, of course. Wake up calls. Eww ... in the promo bit for the return of previous HG, Boogie needs anti-perspirant BAD.
Now Jessie is evicted once again. Michelle is angry in the DR and cries once again. We're in B&W. Keesha is proud of herself for pulling off the Jessie eviction. April is in shock. Dan thinks he's in an awkward position. Finally, Day 31 in color.
Libra is laughing, she's glad Jessie is gone. Jerry is looking angry. Dan is just looking uncomfortable. Jerry tells us Dan has disrespected him and nothing he can do will regain the respect. April's body language says it all -- arms crossed and pacing.
Now Michelle won HOH and they even captioned Jerry's "Screw you people." Michelle is triumphant and so is April. Dan tells us he never swore on his cross and took the cross off before the eviction. First time he's ever taken the chain off.
Keesha and Libra know they need to win POV. Jerry is following Michelle. Dan thinks he might be able to buy a week by acting like he's in shame. Now Renny and Michelle are yelling at each other over something entirely stupid. Michelle yells at Libra and Keesha that they're hiding. April and Libra are screaming. Jerry just keeps piping up with stupidity and namecalling like he's 12 years old.
Now they bring up Dan who's hiding with a pillow over his head. They knock his religion and Michelle even doubts he's a teacher. Dan overhears it from the bedroom. Memphis pretty much tells us they've gone too far.
Focus on DOOM on the wall as Dan hides with Memphis approaching. Memphis wants Dan to be safe this week. Dan promises he won't blow up. Memphis thinks Dan has earned his trust by voting for him to stay last week. So Memphis talks to Michelle. Memphis wants to play his old alliance and save Dan, too.
Michelle is still wearing her unitard. She goes to Dan and asks him if he's a schoolteacher. Dan gives her weak excuses for his vote. Michelle told him that you have to lie, cheat, and steal in the game but not for people like that. He told her he was told he'd be on the block. I love his smiles to the camera after people leave.
Libra and Michelle are talking about how it's just a game. Libra says Michelle's family is probably proud of her. HOH room -- all come up. Memphis thinks April is being fake with praise. Letter from home -- her brother is proud of her. Everyone looks touched. Renny congratulates her, then leaves in tears. Libra and Keesha hug her, then leave. Renny cries and honks. She was thinking of her own family. Dan came in to console her.
Dan leaves and Keesha comes in. But back in the HOH room, Jerry says he'll never talk to Dan again. Jerry vows to make the sign of the cross at him. Ollie just looks dazed as Michelle, April, and Jerry trashtalk Dan, then Libra.
Time for the food comp! Game show setting. "In the News -- Big Brother Houseguests return" Brian is the host. They have to decide if outside news is right or not, then since his first alliances didn't work out a new one -- George, Bunky, Amy, Jun, Jase, Janelle (Ollie stood), Boogie, Jen, Mattie. PlaYING FOR FOOD, RETURNING hg PLAY FOR CASH.

Slop five out of seven days.
Memphis talks to Michelle. He's concerned about the alliance she has with Ollie, April, and Jerry. He tells her that he has no alliance. He's not with Keesha, Libra, or Rennie. Memphis tells her he doesn't think Dan has an alliance. She's still mad at Dan. Memphis tells her he's sure she'll do the right thing.
Memphis talks to Keesha and Libra. He's anti-April and they think he should try to put it in Michelle's head that April put Jessie on the block. Meanwhile, Rennie goes to the HOH room. She tries to bring up April putting Jessie up on the block. Renny says that April shouldn't have put Jessie up, then didn't protect him.
Nominations today - Memphis is trying to be there for Michelle and isn't worried. Rennie wants April up. Dan is pretty sure he'll go on the block. Libra knows she's the biggest target. Michelle tells us the people she's nominating need to be out of the house, been there too long and showed their cards. She's going to blow up their game plan.
Ceremony - Key order - April, Memphis, Ollie, Jerry, Renny, Dan. So it's Keesha and Libra. Michelle says she nominated them and they're not surprised -- not personal, just strategy, they're threats.
Dan is thrilled. Jerry is mad at Dan -- he will always be known as Judas in his house. @@
Libra was expecting a much better speech.
