Good evening! I hope everybody is holding up under the weather. I swear we've had more over 90-degree days than under 90 this year. And, that's not the norm.Tonight's show will be the HOH and nominations. I guess that IS the norm this season -- holding off the HOH to boost Sunday ratings. Although many of us already know the results of the veto comp, shhhh. This is a show post -- no spoilers!
I will be live-blogging, updating this entry as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest update! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!
Previously On and on and on. Ahh, they will show the Muffin Mystery tonight. That was fun on the feeds.
We pick up the action after Nicole leaves. Indy is not real receptive of being Festie Bestie with Taylor. Of course, Taylor chose those two as it gives two non-Leftover targets in her group.
Daniel cries to us. He confronts Alyssa because she voted for Nicole to go. She tells us she didn't want to go against the house. He sarcastically tells Monte that either he (Monte) or Michael will win the game. He's coming across as quite bitter. Daniel's behavior has his Festie Bestie Kyle concerned that they will both go on the block. (Daniel is a target no matter what at this point.)
HOH Comp. Dog Park -- BB Fest Poochapaloosa. Walk across obstacles -balance beams - in the park, hit button on other side. Mind your step.
Daniel - 16 seconds
Michael - 11.79 seconds
Joseph - Disqualified, not in time
Jasmine - Same as Joseph
Alyssa - Same as the last two
Terrance - Same again
Brittany - Same
Taylor - Same
Kyle - Just short of time
Indy - Same as the others
Turner - He fell down hard. out.
MICHAEL IS THE NEW HOH!
He tells us that he will do what's best for his game and thinking ahead. He and Brittany celebrate. He brings up Daniel, but is it best for his personal game? Brittany is thrilled just to be safe for the week. Taylor comes in and celebrates with them. They do have a final three together.
Alyssa is making an effort to at least act like she will work with Taylor. However, Indy is so not happy with the addition of Taylor to their Besties.
Oh, geez. Jasmine is overacting because Kyle MIGHT have bumped her ankle. Turner is skeptical that there was even a touch.
The move to put Terrance, Joseph and Monte on the block would give the Leftovers the most people playing for veto Jospeh and Monte are willing. The plan would be to get saved with the veto and Daniel/Kyle go up, Daniel goes home.
Ohh! Muffins! Jasmine decides to put a few in a bag and save for later. Oh noes! Half of one muffin is MISSING! Turner tells us that every day he's with Jasmine as his Festie Bestie, he goes a little more crazy. She is still using the cane on the wrong side of her body. Turner tells us and Taylor he ate the muffin.
To a Leftovers meeting in HOH. Turner wouldn't be upset if Jasmine goes home. Monte makes the suggestion of him, Joseph and Terrance. Taylor is just happy that she will not be going on the block. Michael tells us that Daniel is the best move for Monte, but is it for him? After all, Monte is a big threat in the game.
Grr, showmance time with Kyle and Alyssa. Heh. Jasmine interrupts them looking for her muffin thief.
Daniel talks to Michael. I think he's overplaying things a bit. He's offering just about everything except his firstborn. Michael tells him that him gone is better for others but not necessarily for his own game. He tells him he has no plans.
Michael talks to Brittany and they discuss the dangers of Monte winning near the end and at the end. Brittanny wonders if it's a bit early to leave the Leftovers. Hmm. What is best for the both of them?
Time for the Nominations Ceremony. Michael nominates Festie Besties Monte, Terrance and Joseph. No surprises there.
The teaser lets us know the POV comp will be OTEV.
