Good evening! Tonight we get to see the HOH comp from the other day and the nominations the new HOH made. Isn't that exciting? Well, more exciting than the Zombie Week, for sure.
I will be live blogging this show, constantly updating this entry as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest updates! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!
Once again, tonight's show is scheduled much too late for my liking - 10PM ET/PT. Please note that the veto shows will now be on Tuesdays at 8PM ET/PT and, despite them earlier announcing that the live eviction shows on Thursdays will be an hour earlier, they are once again scheduled for 9PM ET/PT.
Hamster watchers ready?
Sitting through the Previously On segment much as I always do.
We pick it up with Jared walking out the door. (Good.) Cameron is ready to kick it up into high gear. Cirie feels sad about Jared going but now doesn't have feelings for the rest of the cast. Jag is happy because he, Matt and Cameron work together well. Blue is in tears. Felicia and Cirie comfort her. Blue actually thinks she can win an HOH comp.
HOH comp in the backyard with a space set-up. Cory can play as last week was skipped. The comp is a puzzle building rockets.
We get the standard "I have to win this comp" diary room bits. It's a 14-piece puzzle. Cameron gathered a lot of intel while zombified. America should be more careful. Most are having puzzling problems with their puzzles. And we go to commercial. Oh, the suspense!
Cameron is leading it, followed closely by Jag. Matt is doing well. But ... CAMERON WINS HOH ... of course he does. Matt ALMOST had it! Heh, Cirie says "of course he does" after I typed it here. Felicia is sure she will be on the block again.
Cameron tells us he hopes the groundwork he laid down last week will go well this week. Cory thinks he's safe with Cameron this week. Jared had asked Cameron to protect Cirie and he promises to do so. Will Cirie work with Cameron?
Jag tells Matt they need to talk with Cameron. He and Matt have kind of been working with Cory and America. Felicia and Mecole look miserable.
Ah, no one knows Emily Dickinson is except Cirie! Cirie has to go to the diary room just as Cory decides to ask Survivor questions. He thinks of Cirie as his Survivor Google. She is not thrilled with it!
Cam, Matt and Jag share beers in the HOH room. The Fugitives are together again! Cameron decides his target is someone he doesn't want in the jury house. Cam thinks Cory might be dangerous.
Lots of filler bits. Cleaning and America's kissing history.
Cameron talks to Cory. Cory thinks he has a great relationship with Cam. He has never betrayed him. Cameron tells us no one should be comfortable.
Cameron talks to Blue. Cam likes to gather the information on the others during his talks. Blue wants Cory out. Then it's time to talk to Felicia. She tells him they have never talked game. He tells her he never felt like there was an invitation for game talk. Her gut tells her he is putting her on the block. He tells her she is the greatest persuader in the house. She throws Cirie under that bus. He asks if he has her vote if he is sitting in the finals. She promises him her vote.
Cam talks to Mecole next. He tells us he needs to sit his target next to a pawn. Cam tells her it's just a situation, she knows the vibe and she is not a target, no malice, etc. In other words, she's going to be a pawn. She tells us that she will go after Cam.
Time for the nominations ceremony. Cam nominates Felicia, then Mecole. He tells Felicia her conversations have made her a competitor. He apologizes to Mecole. He tells us Mecole cannot win the POV and save Felicia.
