Oh my. Something actually happened last night on the live feeds. No brouhahas, mind you. Nothing that interesting at all. But we now have a hint regarding the second part of the final HOH competition -- uphill bowling! Here's the skinny:
- Natalie is still worrying that Jordan will win the second part of the comp.
- Kevin is having his own freak-out over not knowing the schedule of events, not knowing whether to pack, etc.
- Jordan is scared that Natalie and Kevin will choose each other over her for the final two.
- Jordan should worry about that. This would be the time for her to win if ever there was.
- Natalie talked about her upcoming wedding. I'm sorry, I didn't want to know her plans and I just don't care.
- They had an indoor lockdown, went outside afterward to find the grill removed and a bowling lane looking doohickey with two holes in it had appeared.
- The rules said they have to roll their balls up the ramp and into the holes without touching the sides.
- Natalie again said that she should have stayed on the log. If she had known this was coming, she wouldn't have thrown the comp.
- Natalie also said that "they (production) don't want me to win." That got a reprimand from BB about talking about production.
- She should have said "Jackie and her blog buddies don't want me to win."
- Jordan and Natalie practiced. So did Kevin at Natalie's insistence. He didn't want to, but she made him. Yep, forced him.
- A moth viciously attacked Natalie in the backyard. You go, moth!
- Okay, it just flew near her.
- I hope this is a hint of how the game goes down -- In practice, Jordan got 17 out of 20 balls in, Natalie got 6 out of 20.
- Even though Jordan is sure to take Natalie to the final two (I think), it would be a hoot if she won the last HOH comp! I'd rather Kevin/Jordan, but I don't think that will happen.
- They're all asleep as I get this posted.
We still don't know the exact schedule of the remaining comp parts. Julie Chen said something about the second part live on Thursday's show. Hmm ... that should be the eviction show with the third part. It's sounding like both barts will be live. I'm expecting Sunday to be the filler show with "highlights" of the season. Then, for the first time ever, we're getting a two-hour reunion and finale show on Tuesday evening.
They certainly haven't done much today. Neither have I after being up most of the night. Here's the day from inside that Big Brother House of Lonesome Losers:
- Natalie seems really worried about the second part of the comp with Jordan. Good. I'd like to see Jordan pull a rabbit out of her hat.
- The ant problem in the kitchen is even worse today. I guess there's a benefit to my not living on a ground floor in decades. I've forgotten what it's like to have ants in my kitchen.
- Natalie told Kevin that the diary room told her she was dumb for throwing the comp to him last night.
- Natalie and Kevin relived almost every moment of the comp. Gah!
- Jordan cried alone. Aw.
- They discussed what the next part of the final comp might be. They have no clue on the schedule, either.
- Jordan promised to take Natalie to the final two if she wins this last comp.
- Natalie freaked out more telling Kevin how much he owed his own place in the house to her. @@
1:55 AM ET - All done, Jordan out first, Natalie threw it to Kevin. Jackie needs a nap before she writes her TV Squad posts. Thankfully, the editors don't work overnight.1:53 AM ET - Natalie jumped, followed by Kevin.
1:48 AM ET - Feeds back. Natalie still there.
1:45 AM ET - Figures, they blocked the feeds as Natalie was due for her fake fall to throw the comp to Kevin.1:31 AM ET - Natalie said five minutes and once again pressed Kevin for assurance that he'll take her to the final two. Now she wants fifteen minutes. He compromised on ten. She's really pushing Kevin. Annoying! She's threatening him. "This is mine to win."
1:28 AM ET - Jordan fell. Sigh. We know Natalie will go down next as per her deal with Kevin to throw the comp after Jordan was out.
1:15 AM ET - All still in. SOMEONE (Natalie) better fall soon!
1:00 AM ET - All still hanging in.12:20 AM ET - All still in.11:58 PM ET - All still in.11:40 PM ET - All three still in.11:25 PM ET - All three still up, Kevin looks the most steady. A production voice told them to flick their mics (when the log stopped) -- apparently to get moisture off of them.11:10 PM ET - Hail, ice and snow now. All still in.
11:00 PM ET - All still in. Natalie is sneezing and apparently her hand is cramping. Let's all think BUGS.
10:47 PM ET - Log started up again, this time backwards.10:45 PM ET - All still on. Natalie is trying to psych out Jordan telling her how Michele wants Jeff. (Yeah, right.) BB stopped the log suddenly, all were jolted. But they're still on. It's now raining again.10:30 PM ET -- All three still in it.10:26 PM ET - Brief visual - Jordan still up. Audio hints Kevin is there -- rats, Natalie, too.
10:20 PM ET - Feeds still blocked.
As I get this posted, I guess it can be a placeholder. The feeds are still blocked. But once they come back on, this post will be updated with screen caps and news. Of course, the fun is in the comments! Feel free to dive in -- the water's fine.
The show has started here on the East Coast. This post will be updated with the major events as it airs, but the real fun is in the comments section. Everyone is welcome, bring your own snacks and beverages! Later tonight my show review will be posted on TV Squad.
Kevin won the POV and is in tears.
Veto - Kevin saved himself. He evicts Michele. Argh.
The endurance first part of the three-part final HOH comp has begun. Log Jam -- they're holding onto their keys on a rolling "log." Julie says they'll have a night of surprises. I'll be posting a separate HOH endurance comp post once the feeds return. Stay tuned for the latest updates!
